    Soul Scout Badge

    I took my 25th ride at Soul Cycle yesterday and I got this neat badge from the app.

    (Shout out to IAM. She put me onto the franchise and she loves it. She has taken 125 classes.)

    Spin is a great alternative to running for cardio workouts. It’s a bit pricey for a single class, but you get a discounted price for first time purchasers. Also the more classes one purchases at once, the cost per class lowers.

    Also IAM is able to find various discounts for the classes so that makes a difference. You should go to her blog to check out her other tips for saving money!

    I’m a Sponsored Athlete!

    (First off let me say that I have a promocode now! Use JSOMEFUN at EPN Supplements to get 10% off your online order.)

    This has been primarily a blog that showcases a particular image that has captured my attention. I tend to take a lot of pics with my phone. And this has not paid off for me… yet.  I’ll get there, soon enough.

    However, one of my hobbies or passions is working out. I’m very thankful to God that I’m still active and in relatively good shape.  On my Instagram account, I post a story (or occasionally an actual post) of me or my buddies working out. I’ve been consistently doing this for about 5+ years. I also post images from Tough Mudders .(I’ve done eight so far) or from my basketball games (frequent player), or athletic event.

    That hobby (or passion) has paid off. I recently became a sponsored athlete by EPN Supplements. It’s become a great opportunity and, again, I thank God and EPN for it.  EPN is an up and coming premium supplement brand that has really good products.  (Currently I’m trying the Immuno Greens.  I like what I’m consuming especially since I don’t consistently get enough fruits and veggies in my diet). 

    I’m believing that this will be the first of many endorsements and opportunities.  The best is yet to come.

  • Albert’s Push-Up Challenge

    A friend of mine gave us a push-up challenge to complete for the next 30 days. On the first day do 3 sets of 25 push-ups. Then keep increasing the reps by 2, e.g., the second day would be 27 reps. The third day would be 29, and so forth until the 30th day.

    Here it is in long form:

    25 x 3 = 75
    27 x 3 = 81
    29 x 3 = 87
    31 x 3 = 93
    33 x 3 = 99
    35 x 3 = 105
    37 x 3 = 111
    39 x 3 = 117
    41 x 3 = 119
    43 x 3 = 125
    45 x 3 = 131
    47 x 3 = 137
    49 x 3 = 143
    51 x 3 = 149
    53 x 3 = 155
    55 x 3 = 161
    57 x 3 = 167
    59 x 3 = 173
    61 x 3 = 179
    63 x 3 = 185
    65 x 3 = 191
    67 x 3 = 197
    69 x 3 = 203
    71 x 3 = 209
    73 x 3 = 215
    75 x 3 = 221
    77 x 3 = 227
    79 x 3 = 233
    81 x 3 = 239
    83 x 3 = 245

    I just did my first set and I’m feeling it. Have fun doing this.
