Challenge Recap

 

1. Weights

 

It had been awhile since I lifted heavy things, and, unfortunately, it showed. I had to start at a lower weight than the last time I lifted, which was about a year ago. I knew it would be lower to start, obviously, but it was lower than I had hoped at an almost embarrassing weight limit. Still, I enjoyed weight lifting and slowly increased my weight limit, with my new at-home setup. 

 

I still miss my old gym setup and prefer it, but at least this is something that I should be able to stick with. And I did complete this challenge, despite having to downsize the weights to start.

 

Scoring: 5/5 (1 for each weight achieved)
Barbell Curls: 12.5lbs → 20lbs = achieved 6 reps at 20lbs each arm on 11/11/2020
Bench Press: 35lbs → 65lbs = achieved 2 sets of 4 reps/6 reps at 65lbs on 11/28/2020
Deadlift: 50lbs → 65lbs = achieved 2 sets of 7 reps/10 reps at 65lbs on 11/18/2020 
Squat: 35lbs → 50lbs = achieved 2 sets of 8 reps/10 reps at 50lbs on 11/18/2020
Tricep Pullovers: 12.5lbs → 25lbs = achieved 2 sets of 6 reps each at 25lbs on 11/17/2020

 

Reward: +5 to STR (+1 for each completed)

 

2. Walking

 

Even with the Thanksgiving holiday, I managed to succeed with this quest.

 

Scoring: 24/25 days
Reward: +5 to STA (+1 for every week achieved)

 

3. Blow Meals

 

This quest was always going to be the hardest one for me to succeed at and it was. I just like getting to eat whatever I want on weekends. While I didn’t do great, I did get C though, which is better than failing completely. 

 

Hopefully if I do this quest in future challenges, I can lock it down harder. 

 

Scoring: 3/5 weekends
Reward: 2+ CON & 1+ CHA (+1 for each weekend achieved)

 

Overall, a pretty successful challenge!
