  • track yes budget yes exercise ... not really Seems like I could come up with something that counts as 20 min but not really. But I did have good diet.
  • track yes budget yes exercise yes Exercise at the Orange Theory studio. That is always kind of intense. I always stop short of doing stuff till it hurts and just get back on the spin bike. Instructor doesn't mind. I rode my bike to and from the studio. Strava gave me a PR for the ride home. That Strava can get to be a…
  • track yes budget yes exercise ??? Exercise. Here I sit thinking about making up stories. I got out of bed and I went outside, pulled some weeds, went to Walmart. 20 minutes of exercise? Well that is a stretch kind of. Today, Memorial Saturday, for the last 12 or so years has been Iron Horse Bicycle Classic for me. So this…
  • Track yes Budget yes Exercise yes Kind of an epic ride, at least for this year. 2h27m ride time. 1h44m of that climbing. 2451 ft (743m) of climbing. Supposedly 980 calories but I think I got under paid. @craigo3154 got me to thinking about my gadgets and all of the software they can interact with so I wore my heart rate…
  • Thanks @phoebelayla, I have a good feeling about being able to keep Buddy for another season. All of the hegemons of our school were at that sugar party and they love me and Buddy. Buddy's mom of course was there and she gave me a present. Ahhh, that little guy, I seen him get out of his wheelchair and into a stander. Then…
  • Ack! I had bad diet today. Tracking no budget unknown exercise 40 minutes Last day of school. Went to a sugar party with rapscallions. They also had kind of healthy food. So I ate all of that too. For exercise I rode out and back on a flat route. Only 90 feet of climb. Part of that climb is in soft sand. Man o man! But…
  • @rangerrickl, @craigo3154. I get a bit of disparity between heart rate monitors. I liked my old Sportline the best for the calories it would pay me. It would give me like 13 per minute when I would run my heart upwards of 90%. So that is kind of my heavy effort baseline approximation. When I climb for 90 minutes I don't…
  • tracking yes, budget yes, exercise yes. I always want to elaborate on exercise because that is the fun part of my life. Part of my brain is realizing and sympathizing that there are some vulnerable people in this group whose ability for that is kind of constrained. But it is still a big deal for me to accurately represent…
  • Ate too much drank too much, heh! I had a 2000 calorie burrito yesterday. I don't even want to think how much cholesterol was in it. But I kept it on the ground afterwards. Orange for desert. But that burrito was after an epic hill climb. So much for yesterday. Today I worked out at Orange Theory. I like that gym. It is…
  • I might have to get back on track and participating and such. I am up a couple pounds. It ain't horrible but I don't want them. I went and sat on a spin bike this morning for 700 cal. Not a class. There was a class that I could have like overlapped into, but I didn't want to play it that way. I am getting to where I don't…
  • Heh! Here is me spot checking in on you guys. Ugh, my back has been giving me trouble so I ain't gonna spin today. I am up two pounds since I last boasted of my enviable BMI. So here I sit sipping beer. That ain't gonna help but my back is happy with that plan. Tomorrow a new leaf. I am going to go see Buddy and he is…
  • Heh! Oldest guy I ever seen in a spin was 94. I am going to ask around tomorrow see what ever became of that guy. I think he would be 96 now.
  • Spin, spin, salabim. I went to a spin class called RPM. I think it is some kind of franchise component of Les Mills or something like that. I used to think that RPM was too wimpy for me. Now I think I must be getting old. I ran my heart for an average of 93% for like 56 minutes. I was bouncing off of redline in my warmup.…
  • Here you go guys. Think about this for one minute. Airplanes, airshows, they got this maneuver I think they call it hammerhead stall. Airplane goes up like straight up, and then fizzles. He runs out of speed and he is kind of hanging on the prop. He starts slipping backwards. None of the controls work they are in still…
  • Moving. I got to get more consistent on moving. I got to bite the bullet and do something today. Somehow I just feel like drinking beer. Ugh, it is windy. Buddy, I was trying to teach Buddy a new trick yesterday. I got this idea that he needs to be able to get up and down a little step. So there is about a four inch lip…
  • Drooling, drooling, drooling, keep them doggies drooling. I better back off on my boasting somewhat. Yeah, right, see how long I can resist. I kinked my back yesterday picking up a 50 pound kid. Only like an inch and only to nudge Buddy into his chair at the lunch table. So I guess I ain't a weight lifter. I am more of an…
  • Alright guys. I am back with a new internet persona. I been cycling through them and I ended up with one that adds dog to the mentality. I know you get that. So really, about me and this group, I am no longer overweight. In some weird sense I am the most fit that I ever been in my life. Boasting, boasting, boasting, keep…
