How I keep the weight off (Practical example) πŸ₯¬πŸšΆπŸΎ‍♂️πŸ’ͺ🏾πŸ₯›πŸŽπŸ§‡ - The Pandemic Push-Up

Image
Here's a recent upload from the Pandemic Push-Up YouTube channel . In the above video, I share an example of how I approach food on a glum day when the weather isn't great. In the past, it would've been the perfect day to grab takeout for brunch, but on this day, we chose to save a little $ and use items in the pantry to create a relatively healthy brunch of waffles, eggs, sausage and fruit. It's a practical example of how my #gradualweightloss journey has changed the way I approach food.  Another cool aspect of the journey has been working out at home. I haven't held a gym membership since the summer of 2020! I work out at home for about 30-40 minutes daily and include outdoor movement when possible. In my recent blog post, " No Gym Required " I reflect on how the combination of good nutrition and convenient home-based workouts have been a game changer for me.  If this content inspires you, please like, share and subscribe.

Big Changes in College Football

Image
Here's a soundbite from my take on USC and UCLA announcing their move to the Big 10 Athletic conference by 2024. It's mainly a football move as that's where the money is for college sports, but it's really difficult to fathom given the traditional Rose Bowl game every January that pits a team from the Pacific West against the winner of the Midwest-based Big Ten conference.  By the way, the "Big 10" hasn't really been a conference of ten for some time nor is it solely a midwestern conference with members on the east coast, i.e., Rutgers University and the University of Maryland. Still, it's just really odd to think about a "Big 10" conference that will not only include two universities from the west coast, but the two most historic, iconic programs that have been synonymous with west coast collegiate athletics - the USC Trojans and UCLA Bruins. And this is mainly a football POV as UCLA is no longer the basketball power that it was in 1960s an...
