On my way to a healthier and stronger me, I'll have to keep it simple in the next couple of weeks. I'll have a lot on my metaphorical plate, both work related as well as private, and as the stress level rises, I will have to be careful not to have too much on my literal plate as well. In order to stay sane and not revert to bad habits, I'll do the following Keep the Sugar Monster in checkKeep movingStay flexibleKeep cookingGoal 1: Keep the Sugar Monster in check +2 CON +2 WIS The more stressful life gets, the more obnoxious the Sugar Monsters become. But I will keep them at a distance, at least 50% of the time. Like the last time, every sugar free* day of this challenge earns me a point, again with a theoretical max (again, ha!) of 42 points. Like the last time I should end up with at least 21 points, which equals an average of 3 - 4 sugar free days every week. *) "sugar free" == no added sugar, no sweets, candies, cookies, cake, sweetened desserts... Fruit and honey or maple syrup are allowed in reasonable quantities. Grades: 21 points or more => A 18 - 20 points => B 15 - 17 points => C 12 - 14 points => D anything less => F Goal 2: Keep moving +3 STA +1 DEX When life gets stressful I tend to want to do NOTHING once I get a bit of free time. This is not an option. For the first two weeks I will continue with the current program: exercise 5x / week, probably 2x Swing practice, 2x TGU practice, 1x yoga class. On June 23rd my beginner's kettlebell class will start, which will change my program a bit: 2x KB class / week (Mon + Wed), 1x yoga class as well as 1x KB practice at home. This will probably be plenty. Each workout earns me a point, including yoga. For the first two weeks, I'll aim for 5 points per week. For the last 4 weeks it's going to be 4 points per week, which gives me 26 points total. Grades: 26 points or more => A 22 - 25 points => B 18 - 21 points => C 14 - 17 points => D anything less => F Goal 3: Stay flexible +3 DEX +1 CON At least once a week take care of one of my problem areas, mostly my lower back, hips, knees or the Whinies and Wussies. This can either be a mobility routine, some stretching, extra yoga, foam rolling... It doesn't matter, as long as one of those areas gets at least 20 minutes of extra TLC per week. Each of those earns a point, for a total of at least 6 points over the course of this challenge. Grades: 6 points or more => A 5 points => B 4 points => C 3 points => D anything less => F Side goal: Keep cooking +1 WIS +1 CON +1 CHA Try at least 3 new (healthy) recipes during this challenge. (Brownies and cookies still don't count.) Grades: 3 or more new recipes => A 2 new recipes => B 1 new recipes => C 0 new recipe => F All right, let's do this - cause... WHO THE HELL DO YOU THINK I AM??????!!! Goal 1: xxxxxxx | xxxxxxx | xxxxxxx | xxxxxxx | xxxxxxx | xxxxxxx 21/21 Goal 2: xxxxxxx | xxxxxxx | xxxxxxx | xxxxxxx | xxxxxxx | xxxxxxx 26/26 Goal 3: xxxxxx 6/6 Side goal: xxx 3/3
