Fitness Padawan Posted August 17, 2016 Report Share Posted August 17, 2016 Well, I've spent some time away figuring out my health, fitness and life goals out, but now I'm ready to jump back in with a challenge. I will be joining the monks as of this challenge because I have made my martial arts practice, goshin ryu ju jitsu, my primary outlet for my physical fitness. Everything I do will to be geared towards improving my practice and technique. I'm working on my specific goals for this coming challenge, so stayed tuned. I look forward to getting to know you all. 2 Quote Try not. Do or do not. There is no try - Yoda Yasashi Doragon Link to comment
Shibara Posted August 17, 2016 Report Share Posted August 17, 2016 I just wanted to leave a small "hello" for those of you who remember me At the moment, I can't think of a habit I want to establish or challenge goals for four weeks, so I'm occasionally posting something in my battle log whenever there happens something note-worthy, and continue to lurk around here 4 Quote Current Challenge (March - April 17) NF-Battle LogMy Wordpress Blog Link to comment
PinkNinja Posted August 19, 2016 Report Share Posted August 19, 2016 I got the job. I'm thrilled. I lost my phone, have no home internet, will be busy moving my stuff out of the storage locker that's 3.5 hours away, and have no idea when I'll get a new phone. So if ya'll don't hear from me for a while, I'm not dead. 5 Quote Looking to get lighter, stronger, & faster Current Challenge Previous Challenge, Dec.

PinkNinja Posted August 20, 2016 Report Share Posted August 20, 2016 Well nevermind. I was all prepared to be phoneless (&kinda looking forward to it). My grandpa bought me a phone. He had my sister help pick it out, my dad drive him to deliver it. He didn't like not being able to call me. lol It's going to be hard to get internet. The phone line at my house is AT&T but AT&T says they don't do phone or internet service for my address online. ?! It's going to take lots of calling. If I can even get it. I don't want satellite, it's so expensive and unreliable. If I could get internet on a mountain in the middle of nowhere, but I can't get internet 9 miles from town, that will be sad. *sigh* First world problems. I'm working my challenge. 1 Quote Looking to get lighter, stronger, & faster Current Challenge Previous Challenge, Dec.

Angie_Phoenix Posted August 28, 2016 Report Share Posted August 28, 2016 I just posted my second first challenge (my first try at nerd fitness didn't workout but I know it was me not the site). In terms of marial arts, I primarily do Shorin Ryu Karate, but train with an instructor who also studies Goju Ryu, Aiki Budo, and Kobudo, so there are some techniques from those pulled into the training. 1 Quote Link to comment

PinkNinja Posted August 29, 2016 Report Share Posted August 29, 2016 I decided to not do a challenge this time around. I need to get moved, unpacked, and get used to the new job. I need a break anyway. I've been messing up on them lots lately. But I will poke around and check out your challenges some. Especially if I get internet soon. *edit* Quote 14 minutes ago, theodinspire said: That sounds like enough challenge on its own Ya know what? You're right. I'm going to start a thread to update my packing progress each week. I need a little accountability there, because I totally played simcity and went to bed at 8:30 instead of working last night. lol 1 Quote Looking to get lighter, stronger, & faster Current Challenge Previous Challenge, Dec.
