    Started the day off right with a bootie kicking spin class. I tried to take some pics to "prove" I was there (and because I wanted to try out my new iPhone 7 that I had to get because I dropped and destroyed my previous phone....sigh). Anyway, it is hard to take a picture of your own feet clipped onto a bike, in a dark room, and not fall off, and not just make it look like a giant leg with a foot and pedal way down there. So, no picture from me. ;)

    I'm going to eat well today and I'm gathering determination for the December challenge!

    Yeah, here is Rick nudging us back towards our professed purpose. Alright, starting in December I am playing for real. But I still got really weird exercise stories.

    Day 3 of my free trial at the gym. I have this curiosity of that stair climbing machine. Me and Mr. Knee have been giving that machine like that a sideways glance for what seems like years. Alright. Today we gonna try it. My big curiosity is if Mr. knee will put up with it. Panned out ok. I think it turns out that stair climbing is a nice recovery day for Mr. Heart. Check this.

    So that is 45 minutes to get my heart to 120 and burn 320 calories.
    43 minutes. I think I seen a readout on that machine of 54 steps per minute. What's that?
    Oh, 8 inches per step. So 43 minutes, I got like 1500 feet climbing.

    Heh. if I got this figured right, in 90 minutes I can climb 3,000 feet.
    But 90 minutes on a stair stepper, here you go, brand name "Stairmaster"
    90 minutes on Stairmaster at level 5 is climbing Hancock more than twice.

    How is that for a weird fantasy?

    Rick, I, too, was having problems - "There was a problem with your request.
    Sorry, but a server error occurred processing your request. Our team has been notified of the issue."

    I think the answer is Yes. I was noncompliant for two of the days, so if I can make it through tomorrow, I'm in the circle! Right? In or out, this was still a win for me. UAC helped me hold it together through a trying month and even I lost a bit. That's a win!

    For today, NOVEMBER 29
    Exercise - Yes, swimming 1600 meters. ( Today I see that the top YMCA 12-year-old boy has a 50 meter time of 22 seconds. I couldn't resist - my 50 meter time? 1 minute +! Yikes!)
    Tracking - Yes
    Calories - Yes

    @bocasdelbob are you using a traditional stepper at the gym or one of the new 'stairmills'. I have read about the surging popularity of the stairmills, but I have never used one.

    Exercise? Yes, went to the gym. It was a really small class so I took a video of myself working on my front squat. I have definitely improved my depth in to the squat but still need to work on keeping my chest up. Still good to see improvement though! Yay!
    Calories? Yes, I had plenty of calories left for the day so I decided to add in a protein shake to help with my well worked muscles the last 2 days.
    Tracked? Every BLT
