Wild Wolf Posted March 21, 2022 Report Share Posted March 21, 2022 “Hidden in the chaos is the element, waiting to strike like snakes. And I'm there too. Watching. 2 years of nights have turned me into a nocturnal animal. I must choose my targets carefully. It's a big city. I can't be everywhere. But they don't know where I am. We have a signal now, for when I'm needed. When that light hits the sky, it's not just a call- it's a warning. To them. Fear is a tool. They think I'm hiding in the shadows. But I AM the shadows. I wish I could say I'm making a difference, but I don't know. Murder, robberies, assault- 2 years later, they're all up. And now this. This city's eating itself. Maybe it can't be saved, but I have to try. PUSH MYSELF. These nights all roll together in a rush behind the mask. Sometimes in the morning I have to force myself to remember everything that happened.” The Batcave · Go to the gym 4x a week · The Focus: Speed and Power i.e Compound Lifts, Olympic lifts, KB’s, calisthenics The Batmobile · Cardio 2x a week & Mobility Daily · The Focus: Running, Walking with Heather, Swimming or Metcons (using KB’s), #SmoothPanther The Utility Belt · Daily Vitamins and Veggies · The Focus: Leafy greens, complex carbs, D3, fish oil, zinc, vitamin C The Cowl · Daily meditation, journaling and putting an emphasis on SLEEP · The Focus: 5min minimum for meditation and micro-naps are encouraged Wolf 5 Quote Wild Wolf Class: Peerless Scarred/ Height: 6'2 / Weight: 188# Instagram: @ryanwolfbell / Facebook: Ryan Wolf Bell / Bible App (YouVersion) Ryan Wolf Bell Current Challenge: Intro to Wolflean Spoiler Last Challenge(s): 1/2/3/4/5/6/7/8/9/10/11/12/13/14/15/16 Epic Challenges: Welcome to the Fireteam & Wolfpool Gotham Project: 1 " Know, O prince, that once the sun burns out and the earth's core becomes solid and cold, there will come a man to provide the endless energy needed to sustain life and for the planets to keep moving.

Wild Wolf Posted March 22, 2022 Author Report Share Posted March 22, 2022 Day 1: March 21, 2022 The morning workload was light and I was already riding a high from the gym. It was a good session focusing on push movements. I think about the relation to a pushing exercise and how that carries over to my "nightly patrols". It definitely came in handy last week when I had to shove a 350-lb guy off of me before he shoved a knife between my ribs. It's the dangers and risks of the job but Gotham isn't changing anytime soon. And I'm not going anywhere... I'm going back to a Push/Pull/Legs/Full-Body split with plans for a run on Thursday (which would be my off day from lifting). I really enjoy military press... like, it's MUCH harder for me then bench press. So, maybe I like the challenge? Probably so. I've never really fully tested 1RM with military press but I think I want to. How else am I supposed to get stronger and throw bad guys over my head? I also really love dips. If I had to choose just ONE chest exercise it would more than likely be dips. The way it lights up the inner pecs and triceps is just too good to turn down. I "accidentally" took a nap yesterday. I was watching TV with Heather before I had to leave for Costco and managed a 30 min nap or so. It was glorious! Costco was kind of chill. We did have a tornado warning, though, so, they ushered everyone inside and shut the doors for about 45 min. It made the time go by quicker after that which was nice. I stretched a little after my workout but not a full on mobility routine like #SmoothPanther The only veggies I had was the lettuce on my burger. It doesn't count. I'm gearing up for an all-nighter with some friends for the Tiny Tina's Wonerlands launch on Thursday. What's Wonderland's you ask??? I've been waiting for this game for a while. You can create your own character in this one and that's always been a huge draw for me Wolf 3 Quote Wild Wolf Class: Peerless Scarred/ Height: 6'2 / Weight: 188# Instagram: @ryanwolfbell / Facebook: Ryan Wolf Bell / Bible App (YouVersion) Ryan Wolf Bell Current Challenge: Intro to Wolflean Spoiler Last Challenge(s): 1/2/3/4/5/6/7/8/9/10/11/12/13/14/15/16 Epic Challenges: Welcome to the Fireteam & Wolfpool Gotham Project: 1 " Know, O prince, that once the sun burns out and the earth's core becomes solid and cold, there will come a man to provide the endless energy needed to sustain life and for the planets to keep moving.

Wild Wolf Posted March 28, 2022 Author Report Share Posted March 28, 2022 Meanwhile, in the Batcave... Week 1 was fairly solid (depending on who you ask): I hit the gym 3x, did 1x yoga session (while doing little 2-3 min stretch sessions during the day throughout the remainder of the week), had veggies 4/7 days, 0/7 days using meditation/journaling (yeah, that one sucked), 50% on keeping up with my daily vitamins No running or walking with Heather. No metcons. No swimming. Realistically, this boiled down to Wonderland's coming out this past weekend. I was up playing from the time the game launched, Thursday at 11 PM, to 5:30 AM the next morning. I had an ABSOLUTE BLAST! The game is SO much fun! I also played a little Friday afternoon and some Saturday after Trixie's birthday party. I played a lot. This is not something I do very often so I gave myself a little bit of a pass this weekend lol. The birthday party was great too. Weather was beautiful and the kiddos had a big bounce house with a slide to play on the whole day. The theme was "Minnie Mouse" and Trixie has a cute little Minnie Mouse dress on with ears to match. Heather made cupcakes and cookies which were delish! I can't believe she's 3 years old already.... Something really cool happened after I created my character. His name is Vin Geance (you know I had to ) and I made him look as close to Pattinson's Bruce Wayne as possible. I think I did a good job, lol, and so did the developers who were watching the first 3 hours of our stream. Since my buddy Brad helped work, balance and develop the game over the last 5 or so years, they devs wanted to watch his midnight stream as celebration of the game coming out. I was fortunate enough to be apart of this and was excited for it . Anywho... the devs liked my look so much that they told Brad that "they needed to get me a Batman cowl to match". I asked him what that meant and he basically said they would either make a cosmetic for me to wear that kind of looked like Batman's cowl or that there was one already in the game and they would try and get it to me. Wait.....what?! WHAT?! I honestly think that's super fucking cool. What an awesome thing that would be if something like that happens!! Ok, now that I'm done fan girling... Back to the normal grind this week. So far so good, just need to focus on my cardio, veggie and journaling/meditation goal to round things out. I got this.

I'm my own worst critic, though. Was I a failure because I didn't finish what I set out to do? No. I'm simply working through things and compartmentalizing the crap. I have to, How else am I supposed to do this every day and night? I'm not really looking for answer's. Would they be welcomed? Of course. But, right now, I'm looking for the problem itself. Find it. Locate the root. Sever the root. And get back up on my feet. Gotham is alive with filth and despair. I HAVE to get back on my feet. Mid-week and things are looking good so far. 3 days completed at the gym with 1 (official day) to go. I've done good eating veggies every day (except yesterday) and I've mobilized EVERY day. Yesterday, Heather and I got a walk in and I plan on a nice run tomorrow. Maybe a 5k? We'll see. My state of cardio right now is...well- I'm still struggling with journaling and meditation, but all my other goals are solid as hell right now. Heather hit 21-weeks preggers on Monday. GREAT MILESTONE! Our last sonogram (last Monday) went really well and the baby is measuring just where they need to be. We have another sono next Monday to get an "echo" of the heart just to check all the boxes. One day at a time....one day at a time Wolf 5 Quote Wild Wolf Class: Peerless Scarred/ Height: 6'2 / Weight: 188# Instagram: @ryanwolfbell / Facebook: Ryan Wolf Bell / Bible App (YouVersion) Ryan Wolf Bell Current Challenge: Intro to Wolflean Spoiler Last Challenge(s): 1/2/3/4/5/6/7/8/9/10/11/12/13/14/15/16 Epic Challenges: Welcome to the Fireteam & Wolfpool Gotham Project: 1 " Know, O prince, that once the sun burns out and the earth's core becomes solid and cold, there will come a man to provide the endless energy needed to sustain life and for the planets to keep moving.

Wild Wolf Posted March 31, 2022 Author Report Share Posted March 31, 2022 Day 10: March 31, 2022 Ladies. Gentlemen. You have eaten well. You've eaten Gotham's wealth... it's Spirit. Your feast is nearly over. From this moment on... none of you are safe. - Batman: Year One My plan was to get up early and workout at the gym at work. I was shooting for a walk/run 5k. Didn't happen. I needed the sleep and I knew it, lol. I'll do something tomorrow since I have the evening off from Costco but today called for some R&R I started the week off with a full body routine featuring the Big 3: Squats, Bench, and Deadlift. Tuesday was a Push Day and Wednesday was a Pull Day. All those are in the books and I'm feeling strong (and just a little tired). I think I've decided that Pull Day is my favorite, As much as I want to build my chest and have rippling pectorals (which I still do), I truly enjoy the grit needed to "pull-off" Pull Day. Heavy BB Rows make me feel very Batman-esque I've started to feel the baby kick and that's really awesome. There was a BIG kick yesterday where you could almost hear it lol. With everything that we've dealt with so far with this pregnancy (and past pregnancies), feeling the baby kick is a huge deal. Today is my Friday. I only have to work my day job tomorrow and then have Friday evening and all day Saturday off. I need it lol! We have some friends coming over Friday evening that we haven't seen in like 3 years. Josh, my buddy who's coming over with his wife and 5 boys, is the guy I became good friends with when I was running/moderating that Anthem discord back in 2019. I'm very excited to see him! More Wonderlands this weekend. I'm lvl 32 right now with 8 lvls to go till max lvl.

I'm gonna try and get something done today cardio wise... definitely tomorrow if not. Day 11: April 1, 2022 Maybe that's what Batman is about. Not winning. But failing. And getting back up. Knowing he'll fail, fail a thousand times, but still won't give up - Batman: Zero Year My goodness... I think I'm starting to REALLY dislike Thursdays. It's not so much a dislike...but more of a "will this day ever end" kind of deal. If you include my commutes to each job, I work from about 6am -10pm. Long. Fucking. Day. I'm irritable (because I'm tired) and that's the most annoying aspect of it. I've been gone all day long and my kids and wife are excited to see me and I'm excited to see them when I get home, of course, but I'm still irritable. I realize that taking a nap would help. Taking one at the office is more challenging. Maybe I can hack a conference room that's not in use for 30 min just to get some shut eye. I need to combat this somehow. Maybe it's just a mental shift I need to make as well so I'm not acting like an asshole to everyone. but whatever it is, something needs to change on my end. TGIF! We have friends coming over tonight after Orin's baseball game and I'm excited about seeing them.

It's not so much a dislike...but more of a "will this day ever end" kind of deal. If you include my commutes to each job, I work from about 6am -10pm. Long. Fucking. Day. I'm irritable (because I'm tired) and that's the most annoying aspect of it. I've been gone all day long and my kids and wife are excited to see me and I'm excited to see them when I get home, of course, but I'm still irritable. I realize that taking a nap would help. Taking one at the office is more challenging. Maybe I can hack a conference room that's not in use for 30 min just to get some shut eye. I need to combat this somehow.

Yasha92 Posted April 2, 2022 Report Share Posted April 2, 2022 Can you pull up a street away and Kip in the car? Or perhaps a driveway meditation/centering, something to transition your brain. I remember when we were all kids and wanted to swarm dad when he got home Mum would make us half-and-half apple juice and chamomile tea a bit before he arrived to calm things a little bit from utter chaos to medium chaos, perhaps a tip that might work for your mob too. 1 Quote Mini | | Jan 16 || Feb 16 || Mar 16 || April 16 || July-Aug 16 || Aug-Sep 16 . || Sep-Oct 16 || Oct-Nov 16 || Dec 16 || Jan 17 || March 17 || April 17 || May 17 || August 17 || Sep 17 || Oct 17 || Grind it out || Jan 18 || Feb 18 || April 18 || May June 18 || Nov 18 || Oct 19 || Early 2020 || Halfway thru 2020 || Yasha High-5s herself || Jan 2023 || Current Challenge: Yasha holds steady (Feb-Mar 2023) Link to comment

I love your suggestions! I think taking some time to center myself before I go into the house after a long day is perfect. Considering it's Thursday again, I can use that method tonight when I get home. The Apple-Chamomile concoction sounds pretty solid lol. My kids for the most part are actually pretty chill later in the evening... It's just all the talking and questions and theory crafting they like to do right BEFORE bed. Because I only get one 15-min break at Costco, eating has become challenging. I typically scarf down what I can during my break and eat again when I get home. ..but that's always delayed because I need to get the kids in bed/pray/kiss them goodnight. Sometimes I have to just be like, "guys, I know you want to talk and ask questions but Daddy needs to eat something and then get to bed" and let that be the end of it. I always feel bad but I know they don't take it personally. At least I hope not lol.
