iatetheyeti Posted July 9, 2016 Report Share Posted July 9, 2016 Raised arm hold done, but without EC. Two sets of two minutes, and one of one minute. Considered trying for EC, but everything hurts and just completing this means I actually hit my target, which is nice! 2 Quote "The old that is strong does not wither, deep roots are not reached by the frost.

RocketbikeNinja Posted July 9, 2016 Report Share Posted July 9, 2016 Rocketbikeninja looks at today's dare: "Really? THAT'S EASY!" Rocketbikeninja reads iatetheyeti's post: "Hmmm... had to break it up into sets... maybe not so easy?" Rocketbikeninja sets up a Smarter Every Day youtube video to pass the time. Time passes. Rocketbikeninja learns about the archer's paradox. 2 minutes in, Rocketbikeninja thinks "this is a little uncomfortable." 4 minutes in, Rocketbikeninja thinks "ow ow ow ow ow ow..." 5 minutes in, Rocketbikeninja is pretty happy that he never has to do that again. 4 Quote Current Big Fat Hairy Goals: Hip to Waist Ratio down to 88%. Capable of 50 pushups, 100 situps, 20 pull-ups in one massive superset. Able to do a bodyweight bench press. Run 10K 1/week for 1 month. Earn 2nd Degree Black Belt. Why? Because I want to model the kind of health and strength that I want my girls to have when they grow up. Introduction / Battle Log / Current Challenge Previous Challenges: 1 Link to comment

Jarric Posted July 10, 2016 Report Share Posted July 10, 2016 Swipers done with EC. Last one for the challenge - final score 44. Goal was Gold, which is 45, so a little disappointing but could have been worse.

Yeah, 5 full weeks, 35 challenges, 70 points on offer (if you include the impossible L-sit!). Puts me at 44/70, so 63%.

NeverThatBored Posted July 11, 2016 Author Report Share Posted July 11, 2016 Hey all, Would one of you guys (maybe one of you Titanium getters?) be interested in posting/running this PVP for next challenge instead of me? I'm not planning to participate in this PVP next challenge, so it seems a little silly for me to be the one running it. (But also I totally can still post it for you if nobody else is interested). Also, congratulations to Rocketbikeninja and Mom2sjm for our first ever TIE for the title of Daredevil. Well done, both of you! 2 Quote Gargoyle Ranger | Level 49 2022 challenges: 49 (current) 2015-2021 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 | 31 | 32 | 33 || 34 | 35 | 36 | 37 | 38 | 39 | 40 | 41 | 42 || 43 | 44 | 45 | | 46 | 47 | 48 || My epic quest | MEATBALL WARS You don't get better at anything unless you start doing it.

RocketbikeNinja Posted July 12, 2016 Report Share Posted July 12, 2016 I would be happy to. This is my favourite part of the forums. One question though - are the dates meant to line up with the 4 week challenge dates? 1 Quote Current Big Fat Hairy Goals: Hip to Waist Ratio down to 88%.

Yeah, I've been lining them up with the challenges (including Week 0), since that's what probably works best for most people. If y'all wanted to do something different, I'm sure you could tinker though. 1 Quote Gargoyle Ranger | Level 49 2022 challenges: 49 (current) 2015-2021 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 | 31 | 32 | 33 || 34 | 35 | 36 | 37 | 38 | 39 | 40 | 41 | 42 || 43 | 44 | 45 | | 46 | 47 | 48 || My epic quest | MEATBALL WARS You don't get better at anything unless you start doing it.
