Ok, I need to get serious about DTube, so I'm incorporating my daily fitness goals into a video for you to enjoy. But don't doubt my commitment as this video has taken 4 hours to, edit, render, re-render and reformat for dTube.
Fingers crossed this upload works.
And as you might be aware I've been trying to lose a little weight I gained over the holidays and I started with a diet change and 10,000 daily steps, losing 3kg's in one week. Now I'm ready to increase my energy output by introducing a high paced bike ride into my daily routine.
And since I'm not at the keyboard on Steemit, I might as well produce a little content for DTube
It's taken longer than expected to produce, and if flops like my first video I might switch back to writing. Let's see if the DTube gods feel I'm worthy :-D
The ride is around is around the Maribyrnong River and I'm hoping to get my lap time under 10 mins, which as you see is about a 25% improvement.
But first small steps...
or plenty of freewheeling :-P

Isn't it incredible how long it takes to make videos? For me, I have to write basically a blog post first, and then record it, edit it, export, render, upload etc. I am so excited that you are doing this though! I forget that you are Australian! Now I am going to read all of your posts in your voice! It's cool to hear it though!
BTW - You definitely don't look like you need to lose weight, but daily exercise is never a bad thing! Oh and it's so green where you are compared to here, I'm jealous haha.
Keep it up!
Yeah, it's questionable whether it's worth the time, given the payout cutoff window is only 7 days, but I'm going to run with it for a few weeks and see how I go.
Not happy with my voice and I'm stressed as I also ride to the trail. Sooo unfit.
And thanks for the nice comments on the weight, men tend to put on weight around their waists and I don't show that ;-) Plus, I've lost 4kg (about 9lbs) since that post and are feeling much better for it.
BTW: The BMI Index suggests I'm overweight and was borderline obese. I like to think it's muscle mass. lol
Seriously! I have cut out soda, cut way back on calories and have been working out and I have been gaining weight! I gotta believe it is muscle! Though I have always heard that measuring your body is the best way to confirm results and not weighing yourself!
I'm sure if you keep at it you'll reach your goal soon!
Remember that the beginning is always the hardest and as you improve you'll get a rush of exhilaration that should keep you going (at least that's what I get in the gym).
Hope you keep on going and showing that commitment for Steemit!
Yeah, this first week will be tough, but I'm giving myself a 2 day break on the weekend, so I expect a decent improvement the following week.
At the moment it's the cardio that's holding me back.
Thanks for the words of encouragement.
