Thank you for the congratulations!! And happy new years to everyone! :tuzki-love:

January 1
  • Hero's Journey Program - Day 1 - Level 1 -
  • 1,000 Squats Challenge - Day 1 -
The climbers were definitely the toughest part for me and I had to split those ones up more than the others!

January 2
  • Hero's Journey Program - Day 2 - Minded my own business! - Level 1 -
  • 1,000 Squats Challenge - Day 2 -
  • Bonus - Exercise of the Day - 30 side leg raises -
The half jacks were deceptive because they definitely caused me to work up more of a sweat than I expected, but 60 per set was the perfect number to push myself without overexerting myself I think!

January 3
  • Hero's Journey Program - Day 3 - Ribbon (Martial Arts Practice) -
  • 1,000 Squats Challenge - Day 3 -

  • 1,000 Squats Challenge - Day 5 -

My first time doing punches with weights and even though it was just three pounds it was more difficult than I expected! Definitely want to keep using them in the future though-!

  • Hero's Journey Program - Day 6 - Level 1 + Ribbon (Martial Arts) -
  • 1,000 Squats Challenge - Day 6 -
  • Bonus - Exercise of the Day - 50 single leg hops (per leg) -
Definitely worked up a sweat today! Also, "push ups to failure" for me meant ~10 pushups, but that's way more pushups than I could've done in a row even a couple of months ago, so I'm counting it as a win - lol!

January 7
  • Hero's Journey Program - Day 7 - Level 1 + 1 set for Day 2 Karma! -
  • 1,000 Squats Challenge - Day 7 -
Accidentally did plank walkouts for the first set in Hero's Journey, but made up for it with the "karma" from Day 2's decision I think :)

January 8
  • Hero's Journey Program - Day 8 -
  • 1,000 Squats Challenge - Day 8 -
Ended up doing a one-minute wall sit instead-!

  • Hero's Journey Program - Day 9 - Clear the bridge (not in one jump) -
  • 1,000 Squats Challenge - Day 9 -
  • Exercise of the Day - 30 twists -
