Since last year, I’ve been making an effort to be outside in the sun more, and I stopped using sunscreen and sunglasses about a year or 2 ago as well.
(Except when I know I’m going to be out in the sun / water for hours on end, I still use them sparingly.)
Also started Tony Hortons new fitness regimen called P4 (Power of 4), on week 6 of that.
HODL (npub1rtl…jtfs) turned me to Will Tennyson’s YouTube channel, getting some good tips there as well.
Been struggling to get to my protein goal daily, was doing 2 shakes a day to get there…but I had bad gas and bloating - my daughter thought I was on my period.
Turns out I was cramming too many chemicals in my face. HODL gave me some good protein tips (just the tips) and after cutting out erithryrol and moving to only 1 high quality shake per day and black coffee a week ago, I’m feeling better.
Great kicking & punching workout today, doing it in the sun makes the intensity go way up.
Strangely, after 6 weeks of clean eating in a 500 calorie daily deficit and workout out 6 days a week, I haven’t lost any weight.
Might be a case of not realizing how much butter and EVOO I’m consuming (I hired my sister to make all of my meals, thanks Bitcoin!)
Mindset is already getting MUCH better as I’m trying to get more time in the Sun and consistently exercising, it means less time being angry on Twitter.
Still lots to improve, but I’m glad to be back into a “proof of work” phase of my fitness journey rather than the Tim Ferris induced “minimum effective dose” crutch I’ve been using for the last 8 years.
That 4-hour BS undid the foundational learning from a year of P90X where I built a healthy habit of doing the work.
If you’re interested in joining our Fitcoiners Whoop group, let me or payitforwarddad (npub1het…jhtv) know, it’s pretty competitive as we’ve got a couple pickleballers in there.
