Hi, so here I am. My last Challenge didn't go too well, as I end up adding too much at once over and over again. Which led me here, as I want to further change my approach on it. First of all, I just got access to the NF Academy which I will integrate into my Challenges. Another part will be this Battlelog in order to keep track of my Footlog, Workout progress and do report about a couple of things that are not primarily part of the challenges but end up getting in my way over and over again. But one thing at a time, I'll start with some basefacts about myself. I am a 29 year old man from north Germany. Starting stats: Height: 184 cm (6''0 feet) Weight: 62,2 kg (137 lbs) Measurements: (for later reference) My reason to keep at this varies widely depending on what's most prominent in my life atm. But one thing keeps turning up in most cases. I've never been too fond of myself. And after cracking from too much work I had to change quite a lot of things that I used to think formed a big chunk of who I was. So on one hand, there is what I need to do and learn in order get and keep back on track; while on the other hand I still try to figure out what it was that I'd like to get to because what I used to be isn't gonna help me exactly. With that being said I am doing from here on is to build up my body and mind in order to not feel spend comes friday night and to figure out what it is that I like to do. Gulp, here I am writing about a whole lot of stuff that I am quite uncomfortable with. I'm gonna post this before I start to change my mind and get on with the next post. Regards Casbin

After an on-again off-again (mostly off again) love affair with fitness over the last several years, I feel I have finally found a fitness fellowship with the Rebellion! I have my Lvl 1/First Challenge posted in the newbies section, but wanted to take it a step further with a daily commitment to logging my progress and sticking with this by posting here in the Battle Logs. I feel like this is going to be crictical to help me make it through. Between my company undergoing a lot change, a crazy toddler, and a very pregnant wife, I have a feeling it is going to be the small daily commitments that make all the difference. Feel free to check back often, leave a tag and I’ll support you on your Battle Log as well. Glad to be shoulder to shoulder with you all in this and can’t wait to get going on my very first Challenge!!!

Phoenix Riviera | The First Avenger Whatever happens tomorrow you must promise me one thing. That you will stay who you are. Not a perfect soldier, but a good man. This will be my first mission as a Ranger. I know it will take a lot of courage, heart & determination but I wouldn't have it any other way. Goal One | Super-Soldier Serum I need to monitor my dietary intake more closely. This is a big part of the transformation. I can't mess this up or it won't work. For this goal, I will use MyFitnessPal everyday to make sure I eat less than 70g of sugar. Less than 70 g = A 70 g - 80 g= B 80g - 90 g = C Over 90 = F +3 Wisdom for eating smarter +2 Charisma for looking goooood when I'm done Goal Two | Train For War Anything can be thrown at you in a war. I need to have speed, agility and strength. I will complete strength training 3x a week plus cardio 1x a week. Strength x3 + Cardio x1 = A Strength x2 + Cardio x1 = B Strength x1 + Cardio x1 = C Less than Strength x1 + Cardio x1 = F +3 Strength +1 Stamina +1 Dexterity Goal Three | Shield To protect oneself, one must acquire a shield... can also be useful when a boost is needed. I will take Vitamin B Complex, Calcium & Magnesium everyday. This will assist with energy levels, bone strength and muscle relaxation. Vitamins taken everyday = A Vitamins 5 or more days = B Vitamins 3 or more days = C Vitamins less than 3 days = F +3 Constitution +1 Stamina +1 Wisdom Me at the end of this mission: Not finishing this challenge was frustrating... It goes to show how important keeping your immunity up is... I have been sick on and off for like a month now! SO NOT GOOD! Based on that, and not to be too harsh on myself I have still awarded points as follows: Goal One | Super-Soldier Serum Less than 70 g = A 70 g - 80 g= B 80g - 90 g = C Over 90 = F +2 Wisdom +1 Charisma Goal Two | Train For War Strength x3 + Cardio x1 = A Strength x2 + Cardio x1 = B Strength x1 + Cardio x1 = C Less than Strength x1 + Cardio x1 = F +1 Strength +1 Stamina Goal Three | Shield Vitamins taken everyday = A Vitamins 5 or more days = B Vitamins 3 or more days = C Vitamins less than 3 days = F +2 Constitution
