Hello comrades and welcome to the fourth improvement megathread of December! bonfire

Only 3 days until Xmas! I hope everybody is couchmaxxing and getting into the festive mood. kropotkin-big


As usual, some discussion ideas:

  • Do you want to share something you've done in the previous week? Everything counts, nothing is too small.
  • Do you have any goals or plans for next week?
  • Do you have any streaks? For example, "sober for one day." Feel free to post your streak every day in this thread.
  • If you don't have a continuous streak, did you manage to abstain from something for a day or more?
  • Did you come across some useful information or resource that might help others?

Take care sleepi

    I guess it's a little early but I'm gonna be cliche and make a New Year's resolution to start working out again. I had a really good calisthenics routine going for like six months before I met my girlfriend and it was the only thing sort of reigning in my drinking but it's been like a year and a half since I worked out and I'm kinda weak again and I'm starting to drink more so I think i need to start it back up.

    I need to do a bunch of other adult stuff next year like figure out my 401k and go to the doctor and I want to read more too but exercising is my big goal.

      It's not cliche, the new year is a great time to make a fresh start! I would also like to do calisthenics next year. What is your routine if you don't mind sharing? I've been doing the minimalist routine from r/bodyweightfitness and I like it solidarity

        I don't remember what I did specifically but it was based off of the r/bodyweightfitness recommended routine. I think I cut it in two and alternated each part every other day with some slight modifications like adding a few exercises with dumbbells to train my arms better.
