30 Day Abs and Squat Challenge

-

 By Ally Chun


Last Sunday, I decided to start a 30 day ab and squat challenge that I found on the internet. I figured that this would be a good way to get myself up and moving, even if its only a little bit. With the quarantine and moving back home, I have been unable to go to the gym and have been struggling to get a consistent workout routine down. With this challenge, I hope to bring a little consistency back which will hopefully get me motivated to work out again.

30 Day Abs & Squat Challenge - Midpoint Update

-
  By Ally So as you know, I recently started a 30 day abs & squat challenge . I am about halfway through the challenge now and have already started seeing results. Now this challenge isn't supposed to be some crazy fat burning and muscle building miracle. But I do see some significant differences in my muscle tone of my abs and quads.  I initially went into the challenge thinking it would be easy, but I neglected how out of shape I really have gotten in quarantine. While I have actually lost weight throughout the pandemic, most of the weight I had lost was all my muscle mass. Because of this, the challenge has proved to be more difficult than I earlier anticipated. I have been able to complete each of the days workouts, but some of the days do leave me more out of breath than I would have liked. I have become more compelled to continue to workout after the challenge is over.  What I did not realize and found very interesting about this challenge is that the last day i...

The Rule of Threes - Growing up a Middle Child

-
 By Ally  There has been a ton of research on personality traits developed by birth order. While I do not know much about this subject, I thought it would be interesting to compare these theories with my own experience as a middle child.  Alfred Adler came up with his birth order theory, which attempts to understand personality traits that may be based on birth order. One of the most commonly known segments of this theory is "middle child syndrome." The Middle Child Syndrome is the idea that children born in the middle of their siblings can often feel neglected or overshadowed, but also becomes the peacemaker of the family. Sandwiched between the baby of the family and the first born child, the middle child can often feel lost.  I can see where this theory comes from, however, in my case it was never entirely true. My parents did a good job at making us all feel equally loved. In my case, I never felt overshadowed, but because of our differing personalities and inter...
