So I was seeing online how "Dry January" is a thing. I thought what the hell, why not give it a try? 13 days in and no alcohol.
Whatever you do, don’t google “Januhairy”. You have been warned!

There's also Veganuary, but that's every month for SergSo I was seeing online how "Dry January" is a thing. I thought what the hell, why not give it a try? 13 days in and no alcohol.

When I took up Shawn's challenge last year I wasn't generally timing them, but would vary between a minute and three minutes. Beginning the challenge, I thought 10 minutes in one shot was impossible, but made a point of adding 30 seconds a day until I made it to 10 minutes in one go. There is no denying that 10 minutes at once is really hard. I had to change positions frequently: elbows to extended arms, resting one foot on the other, shifting my weight forward and back.I have a goal this year to loose the last 10 Lbs. I lost 20 last year but the last 10 are the hardest. I've got to put more time into my workout, but 10 minutes of planks would suck. Do you do them 1 minute at a time for 10 reps?
F**k that, I’m a fun vegetarian. I eat cheese.
My Dad is a “fishy” one, some might call him a pescetarian.
They’re the worst ones here in the US, they usually have all the attitude of a vegan.

Damn it, why would you bring that up! Of course there will be an idiot that will do what you say that you shouldn't.Whatever you do, don’t google “Januhairy”. You have been warned!

Wow, this is a timely news story:
https://www.npr.org/2020/01/08/794772148/alcohol-related-deaths-have-doubled-study-says
Death certificates spanning 2017 indicate nearly 73,000 people died in the U.S because of liver disease and other alcohol-related illnesses. That is up from just under 36,000 deaths in 1999.
I started this thread, and I went a good 6 weeks or so post injury without drinking at all. I have had a few since then, but far fewer than I would have had otherwise. Mostly it's been stuff I really missed, like wine with dinner and whatnot.

Once I achieved the 10 minute goal, I started just adding 10 minutes in chunks into my morning flexibility routine. It usually works out to be 4-5 minutes at once after some basic stretches. Another 3-4 minute shot after I finish my prone leg work. Then I finish whatever is left of the 10 minutes (I save at least 2 minutes for this) fully extended arms and 1 leg focusing on breathing - 8-10 breaths depending on how calm I am. Once a year or so I'll redo the 10 minutes at once just to see if I can still get there.
I doubt if it does anything for weight, but I think there is a pretty strong core inside my belly donut.
