Feb 28th, '23: Rolling on the Bike
Fit in a bicep and back workout. I’m finding a good order of workouts and weights given the plate dumbbells slow me down. In a few weeks, however, I should be past my max (55lb per dumbbell) for squats, bench, row, etc. Will go find a local weight store and see if they have any 10lb plates which fit.
Put the front wheel on the training bike, tossed it on the rollers [near a wall for balance] and actually got in some miles over ~45min. No flops while clipped-in. Now, I’m free to get the cateye mounted so I can actually keep an eye on pace rather than just measuring time.
…Feb 27th, '23: Standard Monday
Been putting on weight, up to nearly 200lbs from 182 6mo ago and 192 3 wks ago. While 2lbs a week can’t be pure muscle I feel good. I’ll continue to 1) eat balanced w/ extra protein, and 2) eat till full. If/when I hit 210lbs I’ll reconsider.
Nice set of shoulder lifts today – my mortal shell is ready, the bottleneck is not having full weeks with the weights / cycling. Where there’s a will there’s a way. Easy way is to bring dumbbells to Oliver’s, and take advantage of weights when I’m traveling. Fun one’ll be the office where there’s a bar and squat tower.

Refund from Delta
Given it was Delta’s issue getting pilots I should be entitled to a full refund, and perhaps even get them to cover my hotel room. comes back 5min later ok – done. It was easy enough through the My Trips Delta’s site

- Check for shirt at the cowboy
- Leave for airport by 12:30p
- Boarding round 2:15p
No company in org emacs
Company mode auto-completion slows down org mode for little value as compared to coding. Hooked in a function to disable company mode (if it’s defined) on org-mode start.
…Feb 23rd, '23: Half BlueBird
Full day of skiing, and I’m feeling in the groove: less sore, more efficient, and having a better and better time. As always, it comes together as I leave. Still, as always, the process feels right.
Today was my last day of skiing, for this trip. Tomorrow is work and at-home/hotel conditioning: ab circuit it is.
