Lunge Challenge Progress blog

So far I haven't encountered any major problems. I have not yet timed myself but have began to research the effect that doing lunges has had on runners. The longer the stride the less steps  and faster time it takes to cross the finish line. So this being true, when doing lunges I need to really stretch my legs apart so that they have a bigger impact on my pace. I am planning on doing this repeatedly every day so that it pays off and will continue to research this topic.

Lunge Challenge

For my new thirty day challenge I will be exploring the idea that lunges can make a sprinter faster by decrease the amount of strides taken. I will test this theory by doing 30 lunges each day of this challenge and I will also time myself at the 100 meters while counting the amount of strides I have taken. I will then record this data and time myself several more times and see if my time gets better. To ensure my times are accurate, every time I time myself I will average it from a series of sprints to make my data as accurate as possible. That is what I plan on doing for the next thirty days in my challenge! I will the. Present this in a PowerPoint.

Concluding Blog

Overall, I have not been able to complete Around the World, but I have come very close. I can conclude that thirty days was not enough time to learn and master this trick. I have practiced it many times and have improved upon my juggling skills which have made controlling the ball in this trick significantly easier but it still wasn't enough. I experienced a lot of trouble with getting my foot fully around the ball before it hit the ground due to the gravitational pull on the ball. If given more time I believe that I could have mastered this trick. I have learned a lot from doing this thirty day challenge and now know how much time, focus, and effort it really takes to accomplish a task like this.
