Tuner Tuesday: Getting in tune! 🎸

by Steve, posted in apple watch, Health & Fitness, Monday Motivation, Walking Man

Hi Fitblitzers.

Wow, i’m out of shape, lol! I walked through the beautiful local nature reserve on my one and only trail lap…I managed 2 laps which is 13,000 steps = 6 miles as it was a dress rehearsal for the One Million Step challenge that starts on Saturday 1st July. This was perfect as the challenge requires around 11,000 steps – 5.5 miles a day for 92 days! So being in a 2,000 step a day surplus should be great as if something pops up i have enough steps to finish…Well that’s the plan, the walk today nearly killed me, lol…Every pound in weight lost will help my walking during this challenge! 😀

During the walk i started thinking about my guitars and how they need tuning (random thoughts i know, lol)…But then i started to try and come up with a sort of FitBlitz acronym for a 6 string guitar in standard tuning EADGBE that will help me each day and it will stick in my head. I also started thinking how it’s vital to stay in tune so it’s not just a mess…Now apply that to my health and fitness lifestyle, wow mine is out of tune and needs tweaking! 💪🏼 😀

EADGBE…

I need you help with the letter E’s at the moment but i’ve got initial ideas for the rest! 🤣

  • E – ??
  • A – Activity Rings – I use apple watch so i need to close my daily rings.
  • D – Deficit – Make sure i’m in a healthy calorie deficit each day.
  • G – Goals – Focus on my lifetime goals.
  • B – Body – Listen to my body and look after it (it’s not young anymore, lol).
  • E – ??

I now have a new title for Tuesday now with a tuner theme each week. I can stop and take stock to make sure i’m in tune.

    1. Hi Dayle! I really like endurance, as I always seem to choose really long walk in challenges! And I like enjoyment, as I really need to remember that I actually do enjoy the exercise! 😄💪🏻

  3. Hey friend Steve,

    I like daylerogers suggestions – hah, the only thing I could think of was “exercise,” but dayle’s words are better.

    Good luck with restarting your fitness journey. I am cheering you on from “across the pond!”

    Lots of love,
    Nancy

    1. Hey Nancy…I can hear your cheering loud and clear from all the way over there! 💪🏼 😀

      Dayle really knocked it out of the park with her suggestions as always! 😀 I’ll update my tuning thing with some excellent new words and then try and stick it to memory.

      Thanks Nancy for always being here for me and always uplifting me! 🙏 😀

  4. Yes, I think Dayle gave you a good list. You’ll in better shape than me. I had a good walking routine going until the three digit temps dropped in. They are here to stay for probably a good two more months. I need to get an indoor treadmill. But, pffff, money don’t grow on trees where I live. Keep up the good work and continue to keep us posted. Hugs and prayers.

    1. Oh wow that sounds like nasty walking weather to me! 😨
      Yeah i’d like an indoor treadmill or stationary bike but they are really expensive…They would be much safer for me too and much less dramas out on the trail, lol! 😀
