Brutal Bears Collects All 8 Gym Badges

[brutalbears]

Hey everyone! This is my first challenge as an Assassin, and I am really excited! My idea for this challenge might be a little grandiose, so i am going to work on writing it until the challenge starts. I would love any thoughts or ideas on my challenge idea. (and wow am I going geeky with this one)Thanks!

 

Brutal Bears collects all 8 gym badges

 

There are still 4 workouts that I have been doing with out knowing the name of them. So until I know what they are called they will be given poke'mon moves names. They will be as follows:

Screech: Spend at least 4 hour practicing French

Rock Smash: 30 minutes of weight training (bench press, dead lift, curls, chin ups, pullups, side pullups)

Seismic Toss: in this workout there is a slack line about 4 feet of the ground and 5 feet out there are hanging ball holds 10 feet of the ground. What you do is toe hook the slack line, grab the hanging ball holds, pull-up into a plank position, and feel the burn in you biceps, toes, core, and forearms.

Earthquake: your heels are on the slack line and you hold the hanging balls and do something that resembles floating upside down push-ups.

Double Kick: hang from a pull-up bar while a partner moves around a paddle and has you touch it with various feet, heel, and toe variations.

Then it is settled. From here forth is this challenge (/my nerdy fantasy world). Mandrill will be Brock and Luciana will be Misty. Let's kick some ass.

You made me laugh out loud. Thanks, I needed that. Time to set up some new goals for myself. I'll be at the monks this time.

Reading this made me choke on my green tea. Brilliant!  

[Nymeria]

Oooh.   There's so much hiking, bouldering, and yoga in your challenge!  You're definitely my kind of person!  

 

Out of curiosity, what is a rock climbing plank?  

[brutalbears]

Oooh.   There's so much hiking, bouldering, and yoga in your challenge!  You're definitely my kind of person!  

 

Out of curiosity, what is a rock climbing plank?  

You know, I think I named some work outs wrong. (This is also a cry for help if anyone knows what these work outs are actually called). First is what I have written as rock climbing plank/hanging plank (I used both terms and they are both wrong); in this workout there is a slack line about 4 feet of the ground and 5 feet out there are hanging ball holds 10 feet of the ground. What you do is toe hook the slack line, grab the hanging ball holds, pull-up into a plank position, and feel the burn in you biceps, toes, core, and forearms. The second one I called "earthquake" in my post you do the opposite of that; your heels are on the slack line and you hold the hanging balls and do something that resembles floating upside down push-ups. The last one that I don't know the name fore I have been calling the "paddle game" and in this you hang from a pull-up bar while a partner moves around a paddle and has you touch it with various feet, heel, and toe varations. If anyone know the names of any of these workouts please let me know. Thanks in advance!

SHIT! I made an 8 week challenge for a challenge that only lasts 7 weeks! I will need to rework this! Any ideas? This challenge is 7 weeks right (which is confusing me as well), but April 13th to May 25th is 7 weeks.

[Nymeria]

Actually, the challenge is only 6 weeks, unless you're counting this week as part of it.  If you want to keep the habits going, you could use this week, the 6 weeks of the challenge, and then the week after the challenge as your 8 weeks.  

 

I've never heard of those climbing drills, but they sound awesome!

[vinoex]

I'm impressed.  You are defiantly setting impressive goals.

[Presea]

So much Pokemon goodness!!!!

Day 1 update: I completed 3 miles of walking, 2 hours of climbing, 1 hour of french practice, and I also completed a earthquake and seismic toss

[brutalbears]

[Luciana Valerosa Culming]

Intense. And I think your arm muscles are already growing

[brutalbears]

Today was a good day! I did 30 minutes of yoga, 1 hour of French, and walked 6.1 miles!

[vinoex]

Not too shabby.  Not too shabby at all.

[Nymeria]

Nice start!

[brutalbears]

Great day today. I walked 4.2 miles, spent an hour and a half in the gym/I got my gym work outs done, and I spent another hour practicing French. I also signed up for a French tutor online. Though, I was still really worn out from Monday when I got to the gym, so I had to take it slower. Also, go House Stark!
