Sunday Week End Post.

It is the end of week number two and it has been a good week. I started off okay but ended up doing very well with my exercising. The weather on Saturday was good enough to get out of the house and walk outside instead of on a treadmill so I got to get out of the house to exercise. The weather was not quite good enough for me to do a bike ride so it was still walking but it was quite a bit of walking on Saturday. the auto walking was when I forgot to put my watch in to walking mode before I started and it picked up I was walking after the fact. It does that automatically when ever I am walking for 10 minutes and I love that feature as I forget to set it to walking mode when I am out and about. 

Above is the total steps and distance I walked on Saturday. Over all it was a lot of walking and it felt good. Any day I can exercise outside is a good day. I did not end up going over my diet either I stayed with in the 1600 calories the samsung health app lists that I should have. Seeing as all of the steps I took burned an estimated 1029 calories that is fairly good for the day. I would not do that every day though as that would be far to extream of a diet and exercise combination and I don't think anything good would come form that. I want to make sure I lose weight and exercise better not over do things and then cause myself problems later. 

As for my current weight and how those pants fit, I weight in at 174 and the pants are still tight around my waist. I forgot to take a picture of the scale after I weighed myself so there is no picture of that in this post. 

Next weeks goals are to do more than 5 hours in the week in logged exercise and hopefully end next week at 170. This would put me on track for adding some weight lifting in to the mix and make this a much more rounded journey. I do not want this to end up being a treadmill/walking journey I want to include a variety of exercises. I am keeping this short again because I am very tired from all of the walking I have been doing over the past week and my writing is terrible when I am too tired. 

Heading back to the journey! 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 ...
