MADE TO MOVE
🏋️♂️ October Challenge Recap:
October is pretty much over — which means our October challenge: Move Every Day is coming to an end too.
I hope everyone who joined in got as much out of it as they could.
As for me, I can proudly say I haven’t missed a single day. :)
I found my rhythm, settled into a simple but effective routine, and built some strong habits that I plan to keep long after this challenge ends.
Since our challenge was fitness based this month, I’ll share my whole routine on “The Drop”.
🔁 My Routine
It wasn’t complicated — but it accomplished exactly what I wanted:
to sweat daily, push myself physically, and stay consistent.
My structure looked like this:
Dailies: movements I repeated every day
Main Workouts: alternating between weightlifting and calisthenics
Run: 3-5k once a week
On busy days with limited time and energy I at least made sure to complete my dailies.
🏃♂️ Dailies
Jump rope: 10 minutes
Pull-ups: set of 10 weighted + 4 sets of 5 bodyweight
→ increased the weighted pull-ups by +2.5 lbs each weekHanging leg raises: 5 sets of 10
Push-ups: 5 sets of 12 (on weightlifting days)
Dips: 5 sets of 8 (on calisthenics days)
🏋️♀️ Weightlifting
Squats: 95 lbs. set of 8, 135 lbs. set of 8, 155 lbs. set of 5, 165 lbs. set of 3

🤸♂️ Calisthenics
Front lever progression: 3 sets of 5 tuck lifts + final set hold till failure
Handstand progression: 3 sets, hold till failure
→ final week progressed into handstand pushups 3 sets of 4
🔥 What I Learned
Daily movement doesn’t need to be complicated — just consistent.
By simplifying my plan and focusing on showing up, I built a rhythm that carried me through the month.
Every rep, every jump, every hold added up.
Even small progress can build momentum that moves you forward, no matter where you are.
“Consistency is what transforms average into excellence.”
Until next time,
