165 is a good floor, all the same. You have shown that you can definitely do better.
~~I have faith in you~~ Edited: too nice.

I second that! 165 is a good floor.

All these suggestions to read non fiction. When?? I know Fra worked full time and still did it, but how?? I don't have time to sit down and breathe. I certainly cannot do it at work. I have tried doing some "post black belt" Sudoku at work, and people started talking about it. Its okay to run your mouth half the day, but no, do not do anything that might help your non-work efforts even a bit.

BTW, started doing 100 pushups at work everyday. Joined few other guys who are doing it. Acceptable to do that kind of stuff apparently!

imo don't use the LSAT as an excuse to not work out

in fact, don't use anything as an excuse

100 pushups every day is nice and all but I think it would be best to increase by 5-10 every day and take a day off every week

You're tellin me u can't fit in an hour a day to workout? That's what kept me sane for September and sure I didn't hit my goal but I don't think that extra hour wouldve done it

I'll echo this sentiment with an anecdote: my ability to sit for prolonged periods of time to focus, process, and be productive correlated positively with my ability to mentally endure three hour windows of mind-numbingly boring aerobic training. I feel I've lost a bit of mental fortitude since I stopped.

Insofar as it pertains to LSAT performance, of course.
