This and That

 I have blogged already about starting anew, but this is still something I struggle with.  I find it very difficult to get back on track once I've either dropped a ball or totally derailed in an area or altogether.  I am not sure why, maybe ego, maybe guilt, maybe if I don't have to get back on the proverbial horse I didn't really fall off. Regardless, if I want keep progressing, it doesn't matter how many times I fall, I need to keep getting up.

Spring break was a routine disrupter for me. There was no real reason for it but it was none-the-less.  I missed a blog that week and then that week turned into two and so on and so forth.  Before I knew it, I was several weeks and several blogs behind.

Well, this blog is me starting anew.

Things have been progressing steadily albeit fairly slowly.  I am still navigating finding that sweet spot between progression and stagnation.  I feel that is working out for me.  My abilities, flexibility and endurance have been improving and I have also been able to keep my pain and discomfort in check.  It is good to be back in the kwoon more regularly which definitely helps the mental game.

I have been doing to progression shuffle of one step forward and two steps back follow by a few more forward.  All in all I am moving in the right direction. My push up and sit up reps have increased and then dropped with muscle irritation/pain and then increased again.  I am continuously trying to increase the amount reps by five each week. I have found that this is helping find that balance.


Numbers


Sorry for the formatting, just trying a new spreadsheet. The three numbers in each section are my weekly numbers, my year to date numbers and where I should be tracking.

Thanks for reading
