Another Monday, another workout. Normal parameters. HTM says I’m at a slow 33:43. Got to work on that. 143bpm average with a max of 158. That’s not bad, but I bet if I were a minute faster they’d be better. … Continue reading

Bottled a batch of scotch ale today. 49 bottles: 45 12oz and 4 20something oz bottles. Scotch ale is a pale ale where the malt is peat-smoked which lends a burnt-ish taste reminiscent of Scotch whisky. I’m carbonating in bottle … Continue reading

Monday Sledging!
Another Monday, another workout. I pushed it up a bit harder today, and I preloaded with caffeine, so I think that may have helped my mood and numbers. Normal PB&J workout plus kettlebell swings then normal 10-15 ascending set with … Continue reading
