Keeping on the journey and slightly changing the blog.

I have been keeping up on the exercising and making sure that I keep on doing it almost regardless of how I feel. This as well as keeping up with my kids has caused me to be MUCH more tired at the end of the day and it has been effecting my blogging ambitions. This is sort of a good thing to me in a way because I want to keep up with the exercising even if I don't enter a blog post every single day. I still want to make sure to keep the blog updated everyday or so for now but if I keep feeling as worn down at the end of the day I might have to make the post every other day with longer posts on Sundays. I forgot to take a picture of the scale this time but I did add in another metric to see my progression that I am hoping to keep.

I used my samsung watch to measure my body composition and I like this as a general progress graph but I do not know how accurate this measurement is. Either way the accuracy is not as important to me as long as the numbers are relative and go down. What I mean is if the Fat mass number is wrong or Body Fat percent has a 10 percent margin of error that is more than acceptable for my needs. I am not going to be getting to the point of needing anything fancy to know I have progress and I for sure don't need to know the exact correct numbers there to know if my pants start fitting me properly. I figure having these numbers for later when I might care a bit more about them or just to see them go down would be a nice addition to have. 

Yesterdays Treadmill was a good walk. I had a few things come up in the hour that I had to take care of so I did have to puase walking every few minutes to take care of things. You can see in the heart rate line where I was pausing as there are big dips in that. I ended up taking almost an hour and 30 minutes to get this hour done but it was still good and I felt awesome after doing it. 

As for a small update on the blog itself I decided to turn on ads and if google AdSense works for this blog there will be ads on it. I don't know much about how ads will work on here or if they will effect the blog itself but I will keep an eye on that. I did read up on what google provide on adding ads to this and I think I have everything squared away for that. I will see how things go with that and continue doing what ever seems to work best for the blog. 

I am going to get back to exercising. Have a wonderful day and thank you for reading!

Review of the Ozark Trail 700C G.1 Explorer Gravel Bike.

Ozark Trail 700C G. 1 Explorer Gravel Bike. 7/10 not a bad bike!  I have read and watched a few reviews on the Ozark Trail 700C G. 1 Explorer Gravel Bike and I am typing it out by full name becuase I think that has the best chance for my review to be read. Anyway I am writing this review after watching and reading other reviews becuase there is something very odd that I have noticed with them. Either this bike is the best bike on the market for the money or its should go straight to the trash becuase its the worst. I feel that both of these types of reviews are just wrong but they do all have good points about the bike. I have put 500 miles on the bike and I have thoughts on it as well as the discourse about the bike.  So this bike cost 250 dollars before taxes. For that 250 dollars you get a heavy gravel bike with cheap components. One of the complaints I have heard about this is that Walmart sells bike shaped objects and nothing is pretentious than a cyclist saying that...

Ozark Trail 700C G.1 Explorer Gravel Bike 1000 mile updated thoughts.

1000 Miles of Riding the Ozark Trail G.1 Explorer Gravel Bike I have ridden this bike for 1000 miles according to my Strava logs so I figured it was time to update my thoughts on the bike and go over some of the things I still like about it and some of the things I don't like about it. I would rather give my summary upfront and then explain the rest later on so if you want to read the details you can but if not then just read the summary. It is a good bike even after 1000 miles I had not had issues with it that hinder my ability to ride it. I would buy another if this one broke or something else happened to it. I also see this as a perfect starter bike or a bike to have as extra such as when friends come over. Now the summary quick thoughts are over lets get into the detials on things.  The Wheels and Tires The tires are one of the first things I had little hope for when I started riding this bike. They are kenda tires but the bike is 250 dollars so they would not be good tires rig...

Still on the journey and exercising every day.

I have still be exercising every day and feeling okay about myself, as far as health and body goes anyway. There have been lots of things that have got in the way of my journey that I have not let stop things but do make me feel down and that is the reason things have not been updated here in a bit. When I sit down to type out a post I end up thinking about other things I could do with the short amount of time I had and I end up doing nothing with that time and not updating the blog either. Anway enough of that for now, it is time to write about the journey since my last post.  I have been going on bike rides and expanding the range of the bike rides as well as the speeds of the rides. I mentioned joining Strava and I have been trying to get as fast as I can on some of the segments I like. I have not got close to beating anyone on a segement but trying is fun for me and gives me a goal to strive for. I also ended up buying another bike for some extra fun. I have been riding mostly ...
