Avatar: The Last Darebender (Darebee PVP Challenge)


Recommended Posts

avatar-the-guru-img-1.jpg

 

Greetings, young pupils. I understand you wish to lean more about how to be a master bender. Well, in order to master bending you must prove you are disciplined in the daily practice of training your body and mind. To prove yourself worthy of learning bending skills and to learn which of you is worthy of reaching the Avatar state, let's have a friendly competition, shall we?

Every day, you will complete a "Daily Dare." There are two levels of difficulty: normal and extra credit, which usually consists of completing the physical challenge in one set. To prove yourself a capable student with enough discipline to learn bending skills, we will use a scoring system based on completed dares. Each challenge completed equals 1 point; extra credit adds an additional point. Just record your name, your goal, and your daily dare progress on the scroll that the monks have provided for this challenge. The more challenges you complete with extra credit, the more bending skills you will unlock.

The totals needed to unlock are:

15 Points: Air Bending

30 Points: Earth Bending

45 Points: Water Bending

60 Points: Fire Bending

You have 35 days to complete this challenge, beginning October 28th and ending December 1st. At the end of this challenge, the bender who has unlocked all four bending skills and has the most points will be deemed worthy of becoming the next Avatar.

 

Good luck, young pupils, and have some onion-banana juice before you go.

Chest expanders tough after doing Chest fly dumbell at gym yesterday.  I found where to find the tomorrow challenge so I can fit it in at gym after work but then I see it's 'Star Plank Hold' which doesn't sound pleasant at all!

Yeah, chest expanders are deceptively tough. And yeah, sometimes I look at the challenges and think, Who the hell designed this workout? :D

Well, today's challenge was more psychological than physical for me, having the patience to hold my arms out for 5 minutes. But I got it done w/ ex. How's everyone else doing?

I hurt myself doing the Pulse Ups :(  Had to push pretty hard down in to the floor with my hands/arms to keep the rest of my body stable, and in doing so I hurt my triceps... Like a minor strain or something. But, other than that I had lots of fun :D  Even got my two boys to play along! Yay for keeping them off the Laptop for a little while :P

Sorry I haven't been posting but I have been doing most* DD's.

 

Since I last checked in:  

I skipped Scapular shrugs :(

Did the Squat step backs in one go for extra credit

Pulse ups - were harder than I expected and I had to break them down into smaller sets

Side kicks - well I don't think that mine looked anything like the video - I might add as 'modified'!

Arm extensions (easy)

Side plank roations - nup (I swear I don't deliberately miss the planks, but I'm not devastated when I do :chargrined: )

Palm strikes - also missed.

 

I guess I'm still in time to do the pushups :(  IThere is no way I'll get the extra credit here!

Hah, don't be too hard on yourself. I'm nowhere limber enough to do it like the dude in the video. I'd be happy if my kicks were high enough to kick someone in the knees! :P What's important is that you do the kicks with the rotation as shown. And that you really have the courage to lean way over in the opposite direction as your kick. I found it scary at first, because I felt like I was going to fall over. But after a while my kicks got higher, my balance improved and my coordination improved. Just keep at it! :)

Super easy! But is the only difference between arm extensions and chest expansions really the way direction you keep your hands?

I did ten pushups in one go a few days ago. Doing 20 in one go is really going to be pushing it though Rolling on the Floor Laughing (sorry/not sorry! :D)

Link to comment

I actually could do 20 in one go! That makes me pretty happy. And they were all proper pushups; chest touching the floor on the bottom, and back lifted high/shoulder blades pressed apart on the top of the motion.

 

Not sure how much I was supposed to stagger my hands though. I placed the tip of my fingers on my right hand 2 - 3 inches behind the back of my left hand.
