Metrics!

Now that I'm actually (semi) consistently doing things, I'm feeling that it's more important to start defining metrics to see how I improved.  Since my brain and my body are the two things I'm training right now, it would make sense that I define metrics for both of them.

Physically, it's not too hard to define this.  It would be how much weight I'm lifting.  As a way for me to track my progress on the cloud (I write a lot of stuff down... I might want to get a tablet for these sorts of notes in the future), I'm going to post on here.  These aren't going to be maximum values, just the amount I'm doing for most of my reps.

Bicep curling: 30-35lbs
Tricep Overhead Extensions: 15-20lbs
Chest Fly: 30 lbs
Chest Press: 120-130lbs
Back lats/Rows: 130-140lbs
Shoulder raises: 30-35lbs
(Legs, I need to do more of.  I can't find my notes on them right now)

Mentally, I was using the Brain Performance Index on Lumosity.  This worked a bit, but it's really leveled out, and it's harder for me to tell in general if I've improved.  Fortunately, they have implemented a mental test that you take, train for 10 weeks, then take again to see how you've improved.  For myself, I ended up scoring 146 on it.  I will work on training for the 10 weeks and take it again, to see how I improved.  That will also be a good amount of time to revisit how I'm doing physically.

Other numbers important to me:
22-24% body fat
Working out at least 2 times a week
Not running at all, but planning to start after I move
