Amput33Cast 9 - 30 Day Challenge No Drinking

Well another kind of lower energy week. I went out around 3 to 4 times this last week drinking & eating bad food. Continuing my trend from the prior, my birthday, week.

I have decided to do a 30 DAY STOP to see if I can get a better track on my daily routine and health.

This time of year many people give up things or habits. At least I believe that is what a lot of Madi Gras is about? I guess the official dates for Marti Gras & Lent are March 1st and 2nd respectively. I am far from an expert on either of these. Either way I guess I am starting a little early. 

I know many of you have heard me talk about drinking & the pitfalls I have had with it over many previous blogs/post.

—————————————————————————————————-

So I have decided to start calling these podcast Amput33Cast. Mainly just to put my own spin on it & sort of have a trademark to my thing. 

I actually am doing this video on my stationary bike. I wanted to add a few photos. For those interested you can seen how I strap into the stationary and some of the range of motion positions of the prosthesis. 

I apologize for not showing more specific details of the bike. I do have an instructional video on this site for those interested in more details on riding an exercise bike or a bike in general.

Halfway point. Not seeing a whole lot of difference so far. I will most likely be changing my diet a little bit and upping my cardio time daily for the remaining days.  Ty W

Podcast 8 - A Low Energy Week

I have been in kind of a blah mood this last week.?.?

Not sure if it was the weather? It’s been pretty cold here. I think some of it was me just being lazy? An easy trap to fall into, especially if you are not focused and being positive. Obviously being 100% go get ‘em all the time can being challenging.  

It seems like I just kind of dragged myself around. Working & sleeping not really wanting to do a whole lot more. 

I will say the week started off pretty big. I saw some friends get new prosthetics early in the week. So, maybe after a day of such elation and excitement the only way to go from there was down? 

My workouts and diet just did not reflect the energy I am used to typically. 

None the less I kept it moving. I am regrouping a little and gearing up for a great week ahead. 

Sorry I am a little light on content this week.

Take care! Wish each of you the very best.

It appears I did not properly publish my last video on YouTube. I apologize if this led to any complications viewing it…as it was set to ‘Private’ mode. 

Some of my videos are not viewable in some countries or on some platforms due to copyright infringement issues…The intro music I have been using. I am trying to get this issues resolved. I am not for sure how much of an issue it really is? I do know It was a problem in the past with some of my ‘instructional’ videos.

I do this site to try and spread a message of being positive to other amputees….Actually other people in general. Each day we wake up our outlook on life can strongly influence our day. Some days are tougher than others, but it is our choice to decide how we are going to face the world.

My Roommate, David Byrne & Looking The Part

Hello.

This week I talk a little bit about following through. My poor roommate and the neglect I have shown him. I admit I celebrated not drinking by going out drinking?!? 

I asked the question - Is David Byrne talented or no?. Hint the answer is he most definitely is. The real question is what makes him so? What defines talent? What is the “it” factor people often have? Does hard work pay off over time? 

Finally, I touch a little bit about looking the part when you are involved in certain activities. When you become the role your appearance is a big part of it. Looks definitely matter.

Amput33 Podcast #6 - Is David Byrne Talented?

Intro Music:

Better Off Alone - Purity Ring 

Only two sentences make up the lyrics. :)

David Byrne 

Hope all you are well.

Best wishes - Attitude Is Everything

New Years Resolutions

 How goes it!?!?

Happy 2022!! I have included a podcast about News Years Resolutions.  I think goals and aspirations are awesome. I do think there can be some pitfalls to making goals just because it is the trend and what everyone else is doing.
