Wufkar Posted February 19, 2015 Report Share Posted February 19, 2015 My last challenge collapsed pretty badly due to some mental-emotional wibbly wobbly stuffs This challenge, we've got that pretty well under control and it's time to go full steam ahead with the usual dose of reality shocks. The last few weeks I've spent a lot of time thinking about WHY I go lift, or WHY I want to be smaller than I am now. If our value is not held within the confines of our physical looks, what does it matter? Here's why it matters:Ability to do things like hiking, climbing, basically turn the world into my playgroundGreater resiliency to stressorsBecome as efficient as possible With those tidbits in mind it's time to move on. The actual goals here are going to look much like the last.Lift 3x a week2x HIITControl foodsing to a reasonable level (160P/60F/128C)The challenges posed within this challenge are that I'm working on buying a condo, there are still 2 certifications I need to take plus purchase another voucher for RHCSA.

So I have." 2 Quote Current Challenge: Wufkar Stops Making Excuses ------------------------------------------------------ Link to comment

Wufkar Posted February 24, 2015 Author Report Share Posted February 24, 2015 The last couple days I've been looking at condos and getting to know my Realtor.Getting to know someone is interesting, yet somehow much easier in a business style setting. For instance, at one condo we just had "lockbox/fence" as the directions for how to get into the property. There was a lockbox on a fence but it as a 4 digit dial style, I proceeded to try pseudorandom number combinations in order to open it and in fact almost had it when I looked over at her to see her face. Apparently just trying to open lockboxes is not common. Turns out it wasn't the right one after all. She's seen me poke about in places people don't usually look. Under the sink, up in the attic openings, trying to wiggle wall outlets and opening the junction boxes.Yesterday we went to see more and it's becoming more normal to her, to the point she started pointing out doors for me to open. We talked about wiring codes, remodeling and why various upgrades likely hadn't been done. In between which we talked about our lives, pets and aspirations.Its much easier to get to know each other when you have a common topic to originate from than it is from a true cold-start. There's less worry about what someone might think of you, or your opinions. Maybe that's why more of my friends are work folk? Idk.I didn't workout yesterday because I worked til 8pm. Though I did do some bodyweight squats, planks, and pushups for grins. Flag football on Sunday was pretty great even though we lost and it was a close game. I'm going to end up working in football drills weekly in order to get better. Quick feet never hurt anybody, why not?
