Mad Hatter does stuff Thoughts on this and the previous challenge behind the spoiler. Feel free to skip ahead if you want to go straight to the good stuff. For this challenge I’ve decided to just do stuff. I don’t have any particular goals reeeally (even if it looks like it) and I’m just going to do whatever I feel like for a while. As long as I put in work and it’s useful stuff it’s all good. Goal #1 Train hard, stick to my priorities and have fun Even though I do best with focusing on one, at most two things I’m not going to to do that. I’m going to do all the things and have some fun with it. I will however try and focus my energy on the things I want to progress the most at and see what happens. A Handstands: TBA after workshop A Contortion: Get started with backbends again. No particular goal except to do my strength exercises 2x/week, at the very minimum B Rings: Follow the program. It’s designed with 3 training days/week but 2x/week is fine C Pole: Try all of the intermediate moves on SV (except climbs and spins because of space restrictions) C Climbing: Chill out and have some fun, instead of going crazy. Grading: Have I done what I could/what I “should� Y/N Goal #2 Keep the black dog at bay I can feel this winter is going to be a tough one, so I’m going to try and do my best to avoid ending up in dark places. Sun lamp - not sure it actually works that great but I might as well use everything in my arsenal Vitamin D - again, not sure how well it actually works but I’m sure I’ll need it soon enough even if I don’t notice anything Eat 3 proper meals - skipping meals generally doesn’t work for me so I need to make sure I eat and don’t wait until my head’s spinning. Max 1 junk serving - quite generous but I’m including booze, snacks I don’t need and any sort of trigger food. Social events don’t count. 20 min walk - normally I walk loads, but when it gets cold I get a bit meeh. Plus being outside is good. Move! Spend a few minutes relaxing in the morning and evening Leave work on time - I’ve been super focused and absorbed into my work lately, which is fun and I’ve been really productive. But it’s also quite mentally tiring so I need to stop working overtime. Keep the new flat shiny Don’t disappear on NF Grading: Points out of 10 per day Goal #3 Learn some skills I’m going sit down and do something, anything with my hands (no, that doesn’t count you pervs), even if it’s just doodling in the margin or play with LEGO for 1 cumulative hour/week. Tiny, tiny goal just to get me started. Grading: Pass/Fail
