Update on the Kalatu Blogging System


Share this post and help spread the love!Update on the Kalatu Blogging System Here s a quick update on the Kalutu Blogging System from my perspective. I was given access to the Beta Version of Kalatu back in late November prior to public release. Although I immediately liked what I saw and saw some massive improvements over the earlier platform. See below to get a LIVE update as of today. I decided not to spend much time on it until: 1) general release; 2) after the planned import facility was made available. (to import all posts from earlier EN blogging system.) 3) I was really tied up on another project and didn t have a lot of time to dig into it back then. I m happy I made that decision. Update on the Kalatu Blogging System Ad have now fully converted to Kalatu.  Last Friday, I ran my import and it went flawlessly. All the posts from my old EN site came over ad did one ones from my custom domain, http://workwithbatman.com That domain now is also re-directed to the new site. Kalat

What the Gurus Aren’t Telling You


Share this post and help spread the love!Do you constantly feel there’s something missing in your understanding of internet marketing or network marketing? Do you feel there’s a secret somewhere that’s not been revealed to you yet? You know the feeling. Everyone says everything is so easy, yet somehow you never get the results they talk about or the money they promise? What the Gurus aren’t Telling You What is this is that the gurus aren’t telling you?  What the Gurus aren’t Telling You Well, most of the gurus in both internet marketing and network marketing have a product to sell. So, naturally they try to sell you that product. Many of them put out a product every month or two.. so they also try to get you to buy them too. One thing they don’t tell you, is the more products you buy, generally the more confused, or overwhelmed you get. Many people call this the “shiny object” or “shiny ball” syndrome. People are constantly looking for some magic shiny object th

Happy New Years Folks!

I've been still hitting the gym every few days. I missed a couple before Chritmas due to work commitments but overall pretty reliable.

The nice thing is I've actually dropped a few pounds since the beginning of December rather than the normal gain during the holidays.

As for my knee, it's still feeling much better although not 100%.

My workouts still include 20 minutes on the treadmill at about 4 MPH, a pretty brisk walking pace.

I expect to keep at this through January and hopefully at that point can kick into some running on the treadmill.

Continuing to Progress

I"ve continued this week with the same workouts every other day.

At this stage the knee is continuing to feel a bit better. I think I'll try a 30 minute outside walk tomorrow and if that gives no pain it will be time to kick in with the C25K again. I'll probably start around week 3 and take it from there.

Finally Back.

It's been nearly 2 months since I posted. Please forgive me.

I lost the inclination to post as my running was completely on the shelf for a number of months.

The diagnosis I had on my knee way back indicated 3 problems.
Strained MCL
Bone Spurs
A bit of arthritis

The pain a few months ago really meant I had to stop.

I had a visit with a sports medicine doctor, and subsequent visits with his recommended physiotherapist voer about a month

Frankly I wasn't improving a great deal in that timeframe.

There I subsequently joined my local YMCA (not your father's old Y, let me tell you)

I had a fitness assessment and a program worked out for me.

The Oakville YMCA uses equipment called Technogym. http://www.technogym.com/ca/viewdoc.asp?co_id=13&la=2

Check out the video of system that they use. It called the Wellness System.

http://www.technogym.com/ca/viewdoc.asp?co_id=683&target=commercial&video=nN9UrIe4SxY

This gym is absolutely loaded with equipment. I expect there is about $4 million in equipment in this facility. It's absolutely incredible.

Anyway, initially the program worked out for me consisted of a 10 minute bike warmup. Followed by 10 different strengthening exercises on the technogym equipment, followed by another 20 mintes on the bike. The physio advised against leg extensions because of the knee, but said any other leg exercise would be fine.

Initially I did 2 sets of 12 reps of all 10 machines. I've been at it about every other day 2 months and have increased the weight about 10 lbs. across the board and this week swithched over to 3 sets of each. My weight is down 5 lbs., and my BMI down 4.

Gradually the knee started feeling better over the last few months, so I transitioned from bike to bike/treadmill, and this week to 20 minutes treadmill at 4 MPH.

I gradually moved to treadmill so I could eventually work my way into running again. Over the next few weeks I'll move the tempo up to a running pace.

At this point I'm happy to report even with 20 minutes of brisk walking and all the strengthening exercises the leg is nearly pain free. I'd say it's about 85% and it's not getting worse from the exercise.

So, if everything continues to improve as it has so far, I expect I'll be back to running in early January. At that point, I'll probably go back to the C25K program and start in around week 3 or so.

Cheers for now, and I hope all is well.
