Those who dream by night in the dusty recesses of their minds, wake in the day to find that it was vanity: but the dreamers of the day are dangerous men, for they may act on their dreams with open eyes, to make them possible. ~T.

Amdhiel Posted September 17, 2014 Author Report Share Posted September 17, 2014 This all sounds great, matey! Keep that positivity and optimism!This YAYOG thing is intriguing me; I may need to go look into that...This CutLass does very much appreciate your posts of encouragement. See you on the boards! YAYOG is interesting so far and there are lots of different modifications provided. I wanted a program that was already set out for me and fully bodyweight based. After the 10 weeks I may go again or try something else, I just want to find something that keeps my interest and keeps challenging me. I always think I'm going to fall over when I do lunges! Flailing arms tend to make people laugh at me... Lunges are hard because balance but the alternating roman deadlifts are WORSE. It gets better as you go tho, I started doing lunges with a chair as an assist and have moved up to no assistance. Lunges are my kryptonite, I swear. THEY LOOK SO EASY! Ahh well. Good work on keeping it all up! Once you get every squat past parallel, THEN you'll be cooking with gas I'm getting there on squats. I've started working on going deeper since I'm not having as much balance fail. My glutes aren't always quite strong enough tho and my calves and ankles aren't mobile enough. All the things to work on it's a good thing I'm not in a rush. 1 Assassin Battle Log | MFP: Amdhiel Challenges: Current, #7, #6, #5, #4, #3, #2, #1 "Why do we fall sir?

Amdhiel Posted September 18, 2014 Author Report Share Posted September 18, 2014 A bit of randomness, can someone tell me how I've already managed to rack up over 300 posts? I guess my whole "being social and making positive comments" thing is working. Maybe by the end of this challenge I'll stop thinking of myself as a complete and utter social failure. 9 Assassin Battle Log | MFP: Amdhiel Challenges: Current, #7, #6, #5, #4, #3, #2, #1 "Why do we fall sir?

(But that would mean you have to carry your phone on you all day?!) Or do you have a separate step counter? ... Or do you count them yourself? I have the BASIS watch that does it and I have apps (Breeze and The Walk - from zombie run ppl) on my phone b/c I do carry it with me all the time. I have a technology problem and I admit it. There are other cheaper options. People say good things about the FitBit Flex which does almost everything my watch does for half the price. Absolute love for lacuna Coil. I even shared this song on my last challenge. You're doing awesome. Already up to 4 pages within the first week and over 300 posts? You social butterfly you. Awesome to see another Lacuna Coil fan and that song is just so fitting for why we're all on this site. I'm working toward the social butterfly achievement, do I get extra points when I reach it?
