Going to continue to work on cross+1 this week, and also some big cube or megaminx. Have not decided what yet, but most likely 5x5. Goal by the end of April is a low 10/ sub 10 average.

Going to start putting all my time towards 3x3 and 5x5.
I'll be spending all my grinding time on 5x5, and 3x3 will be more technique practice.
3x3 Current Ao100: 11.36
5x5 Ao100: 1:39.63

I received a Angstrom MGC 4x4 and a Pro Shop MGC 5x5.
The 4x4 has become my main, but I'm not sure about the 5x5 yet.

pro shop is usually not considered as a very good setup. i really like the mystic mgc 5x5 though

Really, I haven't heard that before. I've loved every pro shop cube I've ever gotten though. It's breaking in nicely, and I love the feeling of silicone setups, so I think it will become my main

It should be Eli Theperson's progression thread, not CubableYT's progression thread.

Well well well, I'm switching methods.
I've been playing around with Nautilus, and have really been enjoying it. It is similar enough to CFOP that I'm not super slow, but also has a lot of new elements to learn, keeping it from being boring. This isn't going to be a permanent switch,(at least I don't think so) but it is used to reignite my interest in 3x3, as well as improve my blockbuilding abilities.
I'll also continue grinding 4x4 and 5x5.

Working on mostly 5x5 this week, but I'll still be doing some 3x3
My next comp is in July, and here are my goals to reach by then:
2x2: Don't care that much, but I will fix my CLL algs and grind to sub 3.
3x3: I want to be averaging low 10/sub10 by the comp.
4x4: I want to have a low 40/sub 40 average
5x5: Somewhere in the range of 1:00-1:10
Pyraminx: Just sub 5

Do you plan on coming to any CA comps?

Probably not, at least while they keep the mask and vaccine restrictions in place.
I can relate as masks cause me to perform worse than at home. The mandates are being lifted in most of CA, but universities and schools are still lifting them.
