Rhovaniel Posted January 2 Report Share Posted January 2 I'm in... but I'll start tomorrow. CrossFit was strict press, ring rows and TTB work (I subbed beat swings and trying to raise my legs higher each round - side note, are your thighs meant to hurt when you do that?) so I doubt I have a 30 second raised arm hold in me, let alone 5 minutes! 1 Quote “All You Have To Decide Is What To Do With The Time That Is Given To You.” - Gandalf Journey to the Mountain of Knowledge - Chapter One: A Pocketful of hope (current challenge) Spoiler Previous Challenges: 1|2|3|4|5|6|7|8|9|10|11|12|13 14| 15|16|17|18|19|20|21|22|23|24|25|26|27| 28 29|30 A Bold New Year Rhovaniel forges herself anew The Chronicles of Rhovaniel, Dúnedain Ranger: Vol I, Vol II, Vol III, Interim| Vol IV|Vol V Link to comment
Scaly Freak Posted January 3 Report Share Posted January 3 Posting here mainly so I will be reminded this thread exists and that it's completely okay to do just one move on days when I am really not up for much else, because at least it's something and that is better than getting in the habit of doing nothing on draining days. And i eventually managed five minutes.... in intervals with long breaks between them. 2 Quote The Great Reading Thread of 2024 “I've always believed that failure is non-existent. What is failure? You go to the end of the season, then you lose the Super Bowl. Is that failing? To most people, maybe. But when you're picking apart why you failed, and now you're learning from that, then is that really failing? I don't think so." - Kobe Bryant, 1978-2020. Rest in peace, great warrior.
