I set a few performance goals at the beginning of 2017. Now that I’m about 6 weeks into 2017, I’m thinking I set the wrong goals. Now I’m pretty sure I’m putting the cart before the horse and I need to reevaluate.Continue reading

2017 Baselines
After yesterday’s goal declarations I thought I better put out some baselines. Without baselines, it’s a lot harder to track progress. I’ll put out monthly updates so that I can see my progress toward my goals. I don’t think I’ll be filming my 5 mile run. Sounds boring.Continue reading
Movement Goals for 2017
I decided that this would be a great way to start the new year and my blog!
A lot of these goals are mobility related. All that time sitting in a truck at work has really affected my flexibility. My first goal, however, is a strength skill. I want to get my first strict muscle up. I’d also like to be able to hold a good handstand for 1 minute. I used to be able to do it many years ago and I’d like to get back there.
My next two goals are both flexibility goals. I want to be able to do a middle split. I think this is a pretty ambitious goal because of the time table. I’d also like to be able to put my chest to my knees in a forward bend. Another ambitious goal.
Lastly, I’d like to get back into running. I haven’t run much in years and I’d like to work back up to a five mile run once a week.
Now to get my plan together to knock these out!
