Kanji flashcards
Portuguese

Well, off to a great start this time. I started off the morning at work searching the internet for Brazilian Portuguese videos and audio to stream in the background while at work. I found a site that lists a couple dozen Brazilian TV stations that offer streams, so I left one of them on all day so I could let my ears get used to the sound of the language. Later, I listened to part of lesson 1 on the drive home. I think I remember how to say "Excuse me". That's about it.

I also spent my break time in the afternoon getting my kanji flashcard situation squared away. I got Anki installed on my desktop and the alpha version of AnkiDroid installed on my phone. I then found some awesome flashcards that follow the Heisig method, more or less, and made sure they synced properly between my various Anki installs. I went ahead and reviewed the first 20 on the stack, which was mostly stuff I remember anyway.

Finally, after the kids went to bed, I did the first day of the first Tacfit Warrior cycle. It starts with a No Intensity day, so I the warmup and the Strain Prevention routine. The SP routine is a TFW specific version of Intuflow, basically. I think I might end up throwing regular Intuflow sessions into the mix, just to make sure I'm getting all the mobility I need. Anyway, since I haven't worked out in forever, the RPE was much higher than it should have been for a No Intensity day, but that'll come back down pretty quickly. I didn't break a sweat or anything, but it was close. Also, a lot of the specific movements are brand new to me, especially for the warmup, which explains the poor RPT. The only discomfort was in my neck, which was stiff in some planes of movement. I caught myself trying to push through it and stretch it out, which of course is the wrong thing. Once I noticed it, I stopped doing it.

Anyway, Day 1 is in the books, and I managed to make some progress on almost all of my goals. Not a bad start at all.
