So, a few more people subbed —Thank you.
I’ll assume those are people who are interested in the fitness bit for paying subs only.
And counting the ones who bothered to leave a comment that comes to 9 out of 23 paying people that seem to possibly be interested, which is less than half.
Assuming a few of them haven’t read the post, a few are just too damned lazy to type out “interested” in a comment (which does not bode well for them ever taking any action at all, that approximated to about 50% interest.
Last chance to let me know if you want this. If you are a paying subscriber please leave a comment as to your interest, if it’s no that’s fine too, if it’s yes , please say so.
And to recap, the posts would be no more than once a week (I’d try and make it on a regular day of the week just for logistics reasons of my pretty full life) and would include:
- A list or schedule of exercises I have done over the period
- A description of some sort of the food/drinks I consume
- My weight and possibly an estimation of how much flabby amount I need/want to lose to get to where I want to be
- Occasional, and/or initially for the most part, and/or when I feel like and is necessary, a short video showing one or more of the exercises with emphasis on anything Systema related in terms of how and why the exercise is performed that way.
NOTE: This is not some strongman ego thing. I am not trying to compete with anyone or anything, I am just doing this to improve my own general fitness and health because my being too busy for the last almost decade to train regularly and the harshness of farm work, added to my bout wit covid and two pneumonias, are piling up and have resulted in a couple of injuries too that are niggling and I want to see if getting back to basic Systema principles I can fix them and improve all the rest.
That’s basically it.
But I’d like to know I am not just wasting my time if I do this, because it also implies a regular investment of time to track thing and report them for your own benefit/inspiration as well as a bit of a motivation for me to stick to things, despite 6 kids (one bing a new baby), farm work, regular work, writing books, blogging, and you know, occasionally spending time with those kids and my wife.
Sleep doesn’t really feature as I average about 4-5 hours a night most days (usually split into two slots of 2-3 hours each, and have done for too long. One of the hopes is also to get maybe my deviated septum fixed and see if that helps me get better sleep.
So… take the 13 seconds of time it requires to give me a reply please.
All other posts on here are free, but I also wanted to give something back specifically to those of you that support me even though you don’t have to, and a few more things are in the works to provide you with extras too.
