Alastair Corvis Posted February 9 Report Share Posted February 9 As the moon rises, dark wings stretch out and shake the dust away. Dark eyes blink for the first time in a while as a dark form rises from the shadows. A curved blade, darkened with age, catches a glint of the moonlight as a slight smile forms. As a brief introduction, I am Alistair Corvis. After reading through the rules here, I decided to accept the mantle of Assassin as my primary workouts at this time are bodyweight in style. If this this remains the choice, only time will tell... Until then, I look forward to networking with you all. 2 Quote Amor Fati is a phrase that may be translated as "love of fate" or "love of one's fate". It is used to describe an attitude in which one sees everything that happens in one's life, including suffering and loss, as good or, at the very least, necessary. It is a philosophy of acceptance that one's choices determine the path and accepting that both past and future are in one's own control and one's own responsibility.

I have regular patterns but keep things organic. Average workout: 2 mile walk to warm up Pyramid planking starting as 10 sec intervals and rising to 3 minute at the peak with 10 second breaks. 1 mile run followed with 1 mile return walk. I add and remove variations randomly to break things up. 1 Quote Amor Fati is a phrase that may be translated as "love of fate" or "love of one's fate".

datauptime Posted March 12 Report Share Posted March 12 What does shaking off the dust mean? Depart in a hurry, especially from an unpleasant situation; also, leave forever. For example, I couldn't wait to shake the dust from my feet; I never wanted to see either of them again. This metaphoric term, alluding to moving one's feet fast enough to shake off dust, appears in several books of the Bible. [ c. Quote Link to comment
