Raptron Shuffle

[raptron]

Hi, I'm Raptron! I do gymnastics, lift weights, and occasionally succeed at doing other fitness things. I like to eat a lot and do a lot. It's gymnastics competition season in my neck of the forest, so getting my condition up to par for grueling 90 second routines is vital. I also am dealing with a couple of rough spots on the injury front and a bit of a fluffy waistline for #noshortsleotardseason, so doing my PT and eating more veggies will be vital. 

It's almost Valemtime's, so let's do the Cupid  Raptron Dino Shuffle.

 

1. To the Right

-Cardio conditioning 2x per week

 

2. To the Left

-Big ass salad: Buy ingredients for one type of BIG ASS SALAD each week (inevitably will make more than one of these from the ingredients just as a result)

 

3. Now Kick

-Ankle wobble board/balance work 2x per week

-Shoulder PT 2x per week

-Schedule a massage to focus on problematic left scapula area

 

4. Walk it by Myself 

-Make progress on some of my 30 by 30 goals. (I have until Jan. 2019 but should get cracking!) Specific goals I plan on working on this month: 

*Make a cheese at home (more complicated than paneer): I think I am going to make mozzarella! I will have to buy rennet and citric acid before Feb. 25 when I plan to make cheese and then actually do the making.

*Start a journal-journal (not bujo or dream journal): set up a journal that I already have purchased specifically for  this, set reminders in calendar, write in it 3x over the challenge

*Write the semi-serious but mostly not serious Guide to Daydrinking: Work on it 2x over the challenge

1) You pick the best themes.

2) BIG ASS SALADS! Totally gonna steal some inspiration from you.

3) I cannot wait for the Guide to Daydrinking to exist.

 

Also, love the idea of a 30 by 30 goal list, though I'm 100% sure I would not follow through well on it.

I started it over a year ago and only managed to get through 6 items so far. I think a lot of it is that it just isn't displayed anywhere prominently and wasn't really on my mind. I had to tweak a couple of the travel goals (probably noooot hitting 3 different continents this year :P) to make it more doable. That is a large reason why I am dragging it out of where it lives in my gmail and bujo and putting it into the light of the challenge forums -- follow through!

If you need a semi-serious proofreader for Guide to Daydrinking, I offer my services.  I learned a lot about both while in Korea.

[Raxie]

What kind of ankle board do you have? I have been thinking about getting one.

We have this one at the gym: https://www.amazon.com/Balance-Workout-Exercise-Rehabilitation-Non-Slip/dp/B01LNDTFGC/

Plus some of the squish balance... hedgehog squishes. I don't have one at home, unfortunately.

Almost definitely will be. THERE IS LOTS OF BOUNCE, I promise.

 

Day 0.3

 

Ending light workouts for week 1 of 5s, oooo. I am cheating on my tempos and not really doing the front rack holds between reps. Also someone else counted my pauses on a couple of my sets of this... my mental 5-count is way off.

+lower trap exercises

 

I also have started the BAS initiative -- I already had a bunch of feta, roasted red peppers, toasted sliced almonds, and cranberries so I've been adding those with chicken to a bunchhh of baby spinach that I picked up on Monday evening. Plus the orange champagne muscat vinegar from TJ's I'm obsessed with. It works~  

 

So let's say for the week 0 test round, I'm at:

Cardio conditioning: 0 /2

Big ass salad: 1/1

PT: 0/2 ankle, 2/2 shoulder, no massage scheduled 

30 x 30: journaling - 0/3, making cheese - 0 steps taken, Guide to Daydrinking - 0/2

We'll just have to see how the Raptron shuffle compares to the truffle shuffle...

 

 

Happy Valentines Day!

I was thinking more like plank shufflin':

 

[Mike Wazowski]

That BAS sounds delish - totally ripping off the idea next week for meal prep.
