A Little Diversion and the Future

Today, we divert from our regularly-scheduled program. Today, I will be talking a little about what I have been up to elsewhere in the internet world, the changes that have happened here and will continue to happen, and then I will provide some links for current interesting reading.


First off, what I've been up to:

I've been busy writing "lenses" (a.k.a. blog articles on standalone pages) on Squidoo. Some of the content there will not be published here, but I will be sure to provide a link every time something new is up.

I'm also using Tumblr to help more potential readers find me here. The articles that I post there, however, will not be unique from the ones here. If you're still curious, here's the link.

As you may or may not have noticed, I now have a Twitter account, which I already use quite regularly. I've added a button so you can follow me.

I've also added a "Donate" button. I am accepting donations in order to be able to create a more complete, interactive, and professional blog (which I will get into in just a moment).

What I have planned for the future:

In the near future, I will be switching over to a fully-hosted blog with my own domain name on a WordPress platform.This costs money, though, so I have to wait until I can afford it.

No matter when I actually get the new version of the blog started, I have decided to start using a couple recurring themes. For now, because of my schedule, there won't be daily content and the themes won't always be recurring on the same days, but I'll be moving toward that level of regularity.

As many have noticed, and some already knew, I use ads to support this blog and my efforts. I will be working on getting some affiliates that are more relevant to the things my readers are interested in, so that way I can provide quality resources to the people who need them! To help me in this process, you can leave a comment telling me what you want!

Along the same lines, I would like to publish content that is more relative to my readers. If you could give me feedback on what you would like to read about (remaining in the realm of fitness, of course), I would greatly appreciate it. It's all about benefiting you, the reader!

Last thing on the agenda...

Here are some links with interesting reading!

Oldtime Strongman has some new books, all about one of my favorite topics: training like the turn of the century strongmen.


Mark's Daily Apple is always a great source of information! Check it his current Workout of the Week...it's a killer!


Mike Mahler has a lot of useful information regarding kettlebells and hormone optimization. I'll be doing a review of his book, Aggressive Strength, in the near future.

Want to learn how to make money blogging? Blogging Your Passion takes out the guesswork and provides solid information.

Evolutionary Psychiatry has an interesting piece called "Neuroregulation of Appetite"

Beast Skills has a new, improved layout.

Last, but certainly not least, check out Eat. Move. Improve. They are currently featuring a piece on understanding pain when dealing with injuries and are also featuring articles on the fundamentals of exercise concepts and how to construct your own workout routine.

Train Smart!
