The 30-Day Return-It Method
As someone who rarely returns things, this sounds really interesting.
Worst case: you lost some time trying something out.
Best case: it actually worked and your life is better now.
Less 365
Thinking about starting this soon.
Bodyweight Workout – Week 2 Day 4
Back in the groove of things now.
Side Lunges
Finally figured these out, I was making them too complicated. Though the right way is slower than last time.
- one ladder of 7
- Total: 49 lunges
Alternating 1-Legged Romanian Dead Lifts
- one ladder of 11
- 16 extra reps
- Total: 137 lifts for each side
Squats with 1 second pause at the bottom
- one ladder of 10
- 16 extra reps
- Total: 116 squats
Side Crunches
Doing these while keeping my neck straight and my hands near my shoulders prevented the neck pain from last time. Hopefully it won’t reappear in the morning.
- one ladder of 8
- 11 extra reps
- Total: 64 crunches
Overall
Was really happy with today’s results. After last week’s scheduling problem I really feel like I’m back to where I should have been. I still have two more days to make up this week.
Get Digital Product Delivery
Interesting service, looks a lot nicer than e-junkie which I’m using for Refactoring Redmine
Amazon Subscriptions and Mailchimp
Since Mailchimp supports integration with Amazon Payments, this might be an easy way to roll your own paid newsletter.
Paid newsletter services
Have some product ideas that could work well as paid newsletters. letter.ly and tinyletter.com seem to be the new kids on the block.
Bodyweight Workout – Week 2 Day 3
So OSBridge totally messed up my workout schedule and I had to pause my sessions last week. To make up for it I’m going to do some extra days for week 2:
- 27th – Week 2, Day 3
- 28th – Week 2, Day 4
- 29th – Week 2, Day 1 (again)
- 30th – Week 2, Day 2 (again)
That way I can move onto Week 3 next week.
Push ups
- one ladder of 11, missed 3,2, and 1
- Total: 115 push ups
Let me ins
- one ladder of 10
- Total: 100 let me ins
Seated dips
Ran into some finger pain here and couldn’t go as hard as I wanted.
- one ladder of 8
- Total: 64 dips
Curls
Tried to do basic curls but was in too much pain. DNF.
Overall
Started out great but my finger started hurting a lot during the dips and stopped me from finishing. I am a bit disappointed for stopping but I’d rather be disappointed rather than risk (more) injury.
Nice spreadsheet for book marketing
Going to have to take some ideas from this for my next book I’m writing.
