Quick run-down for today, a Saturday…

Item 11.1 was getting better organized for tracking my workouts and measurements. I did most of the hard work earlier this week to figure out what I was going to measure, but I went through a bunch of apps this morning on my phone to figure out how I’m going to record the data. I want something that is easy to copy or share, and I don’t want to be continually grabbing a pen and a clipboard. So I’m going with apps on my phone. I have a decent one I like for tracking my weight which I will do several times a week probably, I’ve done that in the past, and a minimum of at least once a week. I like having a specific type of app for that, relatively uncluttered with all the other health stuff. For my measurements, as I outlined yesterday, I’m going to do those measurements on a monthly basis and I have two apps that I’ve set up for this. One is quite tight and efficient but lets me also do photos; the other is more versatile/robust but not sure I need that extra power. I’ll use them both for a while. And then I have one that I will use for tracking my actual workouts, and I went through and input up to 26 different exercises that are designed for the BowFlex.

Item 11.2 was an expansion on the workout stuff. I could have kept it in the previous one, an element of the app stuff, but this was bigger than that. I did my first set of measurements for weighing in, measuring physical size of various parts of my body, and taking photos. I’ll do a monthly checkin, as I said above, but this was “month 0” so to speak to get me started. After this, I’m planning on doing them at the start of each month.

Item 11.3 was a simple small treat for myself. I love serialized storytelling and season 6 of Lucifer just dropped on NetFlix. I’m going to limit myself to a couple of episodes at a time, mainly as it is the final season. I don’t want to binge and be done, but take a bit more time to savour the flavour.

Onward…
