This is my first challenge here, looking forward to starting and joining up with a guild (thinking assassin's). I was going to add a bunch of gifs and pics but I'm on my phone, and want to get this down, so I may come back later and add some snazzy pics.

Main quest - ultimately I'd like to be stronger, leaner, and more flexible. As far as putting numbers to it, 165lbs and 7% body fat. Currently 159lbs and 14.5% body fat. Long way to go.

Challenge goals.

Goal #1 Increase core strength.

How??

I'm going to add two core only bodyweight workouts per week (I still plan on continuing my daily workouts, see my daily battle thread below). My measure will be in my plank times. Can't fly the human flag without awesome plank times. I plan on doing some slacklining as well and need that strong core for balance.

Baseline =

Left side plank - 1min 7secs

Right side plank - 1 min 16 secs

Standard plank - 1min 2 secs

Goal 2mins each

Grades

A = 2mins +

B = 1min 50 secs

C = 1min 40 secs

Less = fail

Goal #2 Increase flexibility.

How??

Add 4x a week yoga\stretching for 15 mins. I think this will also help with my sleeping patterns. It should also help as I'm getting into bouldering/climbing and need to limber up.

Grades

A = 4x a week average

B = 3x a week average

C = 2x a week average

Less = fail

Goal #3 Life goal for this challenge

There's two, continue to slay my MBA program this semester. However grades won't be in before the challenge ends so making a measurable life goal. Declutter my office area/ bedroom. I'm not talking straighten up, I'm talking major effing purge. It seems as though stuff appeared, a d spawned and gave birth to baby stuff on my desk. This one's pass/fail. Even when you clean and rearrange, its still there. If it's not a necessary item its gone.

OK well, I think that sums it up. Can't wait to start on Monday, and look forward to slaying this thing.

Oops I thought I was in the recruits section. Could somebody move this there?
