New exercise method has me in pain

Marine of the United States Marine Corps runs ...Image via WikipediaActually, I don't think it's so much the method than it is that I actually exercised.

I've been reading that intense, anaerobic exercise in short spurts, like when a big scary dog chases you, develops your fast and super-fast twitch muscles. The major benefit, however, is that this type of exercise releases your own HGH into your blood. This is important because athletes and young people have high levels of HGH because they engage in all out exercise more frequently than older people do.

You can read more about this at Dr. Mercola's website.

The end result of all this is that it's a way of combating metabolic syndrome.

Aerobic exercise simply burns calories; it does not release HGH.

Additionally, you have to be careful to not consume any sugar within 2 hours of your exercise session as this stops HGH production.

In any case, I'm sore from engaging in high intensity plyometrics. But it's a good feeling. It wasn't so great yesterday when my heart was trying to leap out of my chest and my legs were wobbly.

Before Getting Out of the Gate

Tonight, I was working on a new blog project. Google and Blogger have been good platforms for me in the past. I was able to get the domain pointed and was working on the layout and template. Suddenly, the website was blocked. I had searched for ways to publish that were not subject to censorhsip. I wound up on the Hive blockchain. It's great for censorship resistance, but it's not without its problems. In any case, I was thinking that maybe I was being too paranoid. Now, before getting out of the gate, I have a blog censored. I'm trying to think of what I could have posted, reposted, or even been associated with that could have caused the blog to be blocked. I can't think of anything. If this doesn't pan out after review, I may need to look for an alternative hosting option. I was already looking at Publii as an option. It only requieres simple FTP updates. I prefer not to use Wordpress as experience has taught me that you an customize a theme and add plugins ...

Blogger blocks excessive posting

A while ago, I tried uploading a blog post via Android App. The upload kept failing. Not to be deterred, I deleted the app and reinstalled, to find no better success. I thought that perhaps I could email the post to Blogger. That did not work either. The email bounced back with the following: Technical details of permanent failure: You have exceeded the the allowable number of posts without solving a captcha. This happened because I imported quite a few blog posts from another blog I discontinued just yesterday. It has been less than 24 hours since the import. It makes sense. I'm rather certain the captcha speedbump is also why the mobile app refused to publish my posts. The problem can be circumvented if you post directly on the Blogger site and solve the captcha. This problem will likely resolve in the next few hours and all will be right with the universe once more.
