Early Lifts - My Actifit Report Card: October 22 2026

newageinv — Fri, 23 Oct 2026 01:25:48 GMT

I was up early and got to the gym well before dawn as I needed to get my workout in as the day ahead would be busy into the evening. I was surprised that I felt well rested waking up at the time. The coffee helped to get some energy to hit my strength training session which remains pretty long as I went over an hour to get the exercises and reps done. I still went heavy and while a couple of lifts were challenging, I was able to get them all done.

After a cooldown, I headed to the Spa as I still had some time. It did squeeze things a little bit as I got to my desk just on time for my first meeting. At least my meetings today were less intense given the big deliverables being mostly done. I think things will finally start to slow down a bit as the month comes to a close. I am hoping that November brings some down time at work as my projects start to accelerate quite aggressively with some travel needed. Im also almost done with this strength program so looking forward to measuring progress soon.

Development from the Splinterlands team continues to outpace my ability to keep up with not only understanding things but more importantly, affording and funding them. I was caught offguard with this latest release of a huge 54 card set only for land. At first, it didn’t really feel as a necessary thing to jump into despite being where my focus is; land. However, more speculation and news is signaling the importance of this set for the next iteration of land, buildings.

Still don’t understand it all but know that the majority of my land are common plots which is what building seemingly are meant for. Given this, I did buy what I could with what I had available in game. Luckily, each pack has 20 cards which is cool but all cards are Common so maxing this set will clearly be impossible for me. However, it will also not be needed as I will only look for those cards that mingle well with my land types. I am concerned that the market will lack enough to complete those that I need so will need to look more closely what the strategy will be with this set.

Over the Hump - My Actifit Report Card: October 21 2026

newageinv — Thu, 22 Oct 2026 01:58:15 GMT

Today was a critical day around all things in my life as I had things do at work and some of my projects got kicked off as well. I was up early but not to workout but instead prepare for my first meeting which was pretty early. It was a culmination of weeks of grinding and collaborating so happy to have it behind me although follow ups remain. I kept busy throughout the morning so my first chance for some activity was before lunch.

I got on the treadmill for a short jog with a cooldown after. After a quick shower, I was back to meeting until early evening. I had to get my PT session in before finally going for some rest and recovery as I just want to sleep today. Tomorrow is another busy day so the grind will continue until the weekend when I will potentially finally have some breathing room and time with the family. Getting the workouts in between will remain challenging and being rested and fueled for them even more so.

First Priority - My Actifit Report Card: October 20 2026

newageinv — Wed, 21 Oct 2026 01:36:15 GMT

After things got away from me yesterday, I prepared to avoid it completely today. I was up before dawn and at the gym to hit my next strength training session. I knew it would be tough given the lack of sleep over the last week or so. I struggled with some of the heavier weights at these high reps. I tried to provide enough rest in between to help but it was still a struggle. Despite the struggle, I got most of my exercises done but had to skip a lower body one as I could not get a spot.

I could not get a cooldown afterwards as I went to the Spa instead for some recovery ahead of a crazy day. It was indeed intense as I got home and immediately got started on a deliverable due today. It was non stop until noon when some time opened up to get the final things done for the deliverable. I accomplished it a bit later than I wanted but it was good to get done although I still had some more related work until the evening. Not even halfway done for the week and can’t wait for it to be over.

A Glimpse of Better? - My Actifit Report Card: October 19 2026

newageinv — Tue, 20 Oct 2026 02:37:03 GMT

Today was another crazy day which I completely expected. I was up early again having my coffee when I went outside to take out the garbage. I was surprised to enjoy a breeze and great weather which felt like a glimpse of better weather to come maybe. I could not resist to go for a walk and enjoy the Sun and the breeze and no mosquitoes! I was concerned though as it delayed my start at work which had a long list of things to do with meetings ahead.

Things played out pretty bad as my meetings did not allow me to get things done so my planned trip to the gym was not met as I had to stay glued to my desk until bedtime basically. Luckily the morning walk did enough to not make the day a complete fail as I paced before bed for my daily goal. Now I have an early wake up to get to the gym for my workout which is a must before dawn. Not helping myself with sleep but hopefully opportunities will come.

Better Late Than Never - My Actifit Report Card: October 18 2026

newageinv — Mon, 19 Oct 2026 02:41:36 GMT

It was an awkward day as I was up early again this morning despite wanting to sleep more. Even my watch is sending me messages about my recent sleep hours so not sure what is going on there yet. I worked a bit while I had my coffee as it was a long day of more chores and errands ahead. As I was an hour in, I decided to go buy some things I needed to get it done early. As I headed back, I had to make a small deviation to buy breakfast as I was starving.

I got home and got work on one of my projects. As I was half way through it, I got a call that made me leave the house again before I was done with that chore. I got back but it was only for an hour as it was time to head out again for the event we had in the afternoon. It was fun and even as I knew everything was waiting for me back home. We ate on the way home which allowed me to finish my project work soon after getting home. I had to get my workout in but not before preparing some things for the week ahead at my desk. I finally got to the treadmill for a short walk just to get passed my daily goal. Headed for bed!

Not Strong Enough without Sleep - My Actifit Report Card: October 17 2026

newageinv — Sun, 18 Oct 2026 03:29:45 GMT

Despite the weekend arriving, I had an early start as I had chores to do from the start. After my first chore was done, I had a quick breakfast as I had to wait for the next store to open to buy some things for one of my projects. My projects are all converging at the same time which is adding some stress. I was able to get home and continue my work until the next appointment was due.

The good part is that the next step was near the gym so while I waited for the family to get the next item on our list done, I went for a workout. It was long as the workouts for this phase are long. I think the lack of sleep is getting to me as I could not feel very strong although it could also be the fact that my lifts had more reps than I have been used to. I was glad to get done and continue my day of chores. It was pretty productive and I still had time to rest and watch a movie before going to bed (late again).

Home for a Workout - My Actifit Report Card: October 16 2026

newageinv — Sat, 17 Oct 2026 01:48:54 GMT

Finally got home today after an early flight back on limited sleep. I had time before my first meeting to get a workout in even though my body was not feeling it much. I kept it to a short interval session on the treadmill. I did not push too much as the walking around the terminals got me a good amount of activity. However, the afternoon was full of emails to wrap up the week which has been crazy.

I also got a PT session in before I just headed to bed to rest as my mind and body need it. It will not be fully achieved as I do have some work over the weekend. Chores are also waiting for me but more importantly have to catch up with the family. Started today with a good dinner together as we looked forward to the weekend. Next week things will remain busy but I think the light at the end of the tunnel is near.

Later Start - My Actifit Report Card: October 15 2026

newageinv — Fri, 16 Oct 2026 00:44:57 GMT

I was able to get a bit more sleep which was well needed as the busy work week continues. I am definitely home sick as it has been a while since traveling for this long. After a coffee, I headed to the gym but only went for a long walk on the treadmill as I did not want to lish things as it was going to be a long day and I wanted to catch up on some emails during the workout. I did miss out on a good breakfast so just had a protein shake before starting my meetings.

I was surpised to get a good amount of pacing done between meetings but I did miss out on getting a PT session so will need to deal with that throughout the weekend. Dinner was late so already know that sleep will be bad as I prepare for my travel back home to finally get to the weekend. It will be a weekend of work as plenty of things have accumulated while I have been traveling which is unfortunate. Looking forward to getting home!

Adapting with the Tools - My Actifit Report Card: October 14 2026

newageinv — Thu, 15 Oct 2026 02:57:18 GMT

I hit the gym early before work got started and while the gym at the hotel has a good space, it did not have all the equipment I needed to get my next strength training session in. For example, there were no barbells for my deadlifts. I adapted with what was available as I could not really delay my workout another day as this phase requires 3 sessions a week and with the high volume, I need time to recover in between days. I got a longer cooldown at the end as today would be a challenge to get activity the rest of the day given the meetings.

It was an intense day as meeting were back to back. What was worse is that my breaks in between were used to stay up to speed with emails. The afternoon came and I had to hunker down in my room to complete some reviews for work until it was time to get to Dinner. By the time I was back in my room, I was ready for bed again to prepare for another busy day tomorrow as travel continues. Still encouraged with being able to get things done still for my fitness.
