    It’s friday.

    I made it to the gym and feel glorious. I’m on Day 4 of being a primary Linux user and it feels nice to know that I’m digitally flipping Microsoft the bird.

      Yo man, same. I decided to go to the gym today for the first time since February and… well, I’m not as strong as I used to be, that’s for sure, but it felt really good. I think I’ll start doing it more.

      Also – as someone on year 8 of his Linux journey, the start of the road can be rocky, but as long as you stick with it and learn the Linux way of doing things, it is very much worth it. A lot of people like customizing every aspect of their system, and as we all know Linux can deliver that, but I’m very much a fan of a system that just gets out of my way and lets me get stuff done, and Linux can deliver that too.

        I work out six days a week, haha.

        Once you get to a point where it’s like brushing your teeth, it’s easy.

          I’ve been fooling around with an adjustable free weight at home, and forcing myself to do a few (12-15) pushups, bicep curls, or plank hold every night before I let myself go to sleep. It’s no substitute for a gym (hence why I found I was so much weaker lol), especially with only one or two sets, but it’s nice to keep my hand in.

          It’s also nice to know I can hold a plank position for 5 minutes without stopping.
