Look good naked, 2015 Update 50 and older.

 New Season new installment.
The next thing I want to talk about is fighting theaging process. Currently I am weighing at about 290# When I started this seriesI was at 276#.  Funny thing is I had more fat then.. When you start growing older your body changes again. If yourlike me your the last generation called baby boomers.

We are living longer.  So change is going to happen.
When Iwas in my 30's I had been exercising for about 12 years.  This is me all natural no pharmeceuticals.

What about you.  I am the classic hard gainer.  Every ounce of muscle is hard to come by.  Losing fat, this is the weird part, to lose fat I have actually had to eat more.  The idea of losing weight by cutting calories is
only half right.                                                                                                                                                        

 The other half is that you keep yourself in a calorie deficient state for a long time, your body is going to retain fatat the expense of losing general health.  It is better to eat small meals more often than to eat really big meals onceor twice today. What if you like myself.  You can't eat really good all of thetime because you just don'thave the money.  Their is a weight management technique called "Pulsing."
For instance you get your monthly retirement benefit or your bimonthly paycheck.
What you can do once a week, if available,go to a buffet

and really eat a lot. One plate at a time, it is a buffett but eat what you get.  Don't leave a plate of food uneaten. It shouldn't once every weekor two. Lets get back to reaching 50 and beyond.  Men and Women do not be afraid to join a gym and lift those weights too.  About aerobics before weight training, afterward, not such a good idea.   Here is another thing, As we grow older and nature starts to fight us, frequency of exercise is important.  Back when you where in your 30's if you miss a or two of exercise you lost a little of your endurance and strength.  Now in your 50's not a good idea.  It seems if you stop your activity 'cross fit', 'bodybuildin', whatever, for over 3 days in a row,   Nature says hey you don't need that muscle or endurance after all.  So let's just take away those physical improvements..   For now "Nuff Said"  your friend and I hope future US President,  Steven Childs. Let's all "Look Good Naked."

Boko Haramand and Islamic Caliphate

Like my Facebook page; Steven Childs for president 2016-2024.

Boko Haram has been getting a lot of press lately.  As an Islamic extremist group,  Boko Haram started out peacefully enough in 2002. Being led by the Islamic Cleric Mohammed Yusuf.  (Wikipedia) Due to economic oppression in an oppressive government.  Boko Haram was able to recruit more members in Nigeria Africa. They really did not make a lot of noise until after being schooled by AQIM. Now known Al-Qaeda.

Part of the fuel that fed Boko Haram is the continued corruption and inhumane atrocities commited by Nigeria's more or less "police State" type of government.

For along time now  Nigeria's police officers have been practicing things like 

"extrajudicial killing".  Also known as executions without trial of (usually poor), 

prisoners.  In a (Huffinpost)   report, even though Nigerias annual miltary budget is about $5,000,000,000 a year the enlisted  soldiers are usually issued 30 bullets.  It seems that their  officers also take part of the soldiers pay and keep it forthemselves. 

This is the government that Boko Haram was born into.  The current leadership of Boko Haram is 'Abubaher Shekau.'  My question is: If Boko Haram succeeds in establishing an Islamic Caliphate form of government, will the soldiers be debriefed and given other opportunities to grow as Humans, such as become farmers and fisherman or would Nigerians be forced to live under another oppressive and lethal government?  Don't forget "ebola is still alive and well  in Nigeria too according to the United Nations Refuge RelocationService.

Carpenter for Hire

 If your like many  Americans you income is somewhere South of $13.00 per hour. Paying rent let alone buying a home is a challenge. Having worked as a social and environmental activistthe biggest challeng I seeacross America is affordable (by your standards) housing.  $600 P/M rent is not really affordable for most people who work in food service, retail, and some of the service industries.  With your help, I want to change this.  Since I am out to earn an honest dollar, here is a link to my thumbtack listing, "Carpenter for Hire".
Concept E-3

How I propose to do this is form an LLC,  I'll need 100 member shareholders.  The share price I hope to have at $5.00 per share. 1 share makes you a member.  Then we'll take it from there.

Look Good Naked, Over 50.

So you see yourself and say, I want a better body.

Nature has a sense of humor. As humans we have unlimited potential to store fat, whether we want to or not.  As older men, we have way less Testosterone Cholstera then we did as younger "Stud Muffins."..

The good newsisit usually takesa long time and poor lifestyle choices to get really overweight.  Whats worse as an older man it takes a lot longer to lose the belly.  There ishelp to be had.  Now my disclaimer:  These post are for informational and educational purposes.  They are not meant to take the place of a licensed  physicians or "nutritionist" advice.

The top picture is were I was a few years ago, the bottom picture is where I am at today.  Let me tell you I am in my 50's and I am still awork under progress.  Initially I went to the local sports nutrition store and I bought a weight loss VPX Red line.  It does have caffeine soo if you drink coffee tooyour older then drink de-caff unlesss you havea high caffeine tolerance.  the most effective fatburner I ever  used was BPI's roxylean. Seriously read the label do not exceed maxium dosage.  I also started exercising I started jogging okay walking first then eventually jogging.  Using a treadmill at the local gym, where the trak moves under you does not much for the hamstrings. This and bicycling.  All together bodybuilding, jogging, bicycling and It was not long before 10 lbs of fat melted away.  By time I reduced using fatburners My bodyweightwent from a high of 297# to 276#.  As far as how I look today my weight is at 284#.
   Prior to this I trieda diet program called formu-fast.  Long story short since I didn't meet my aggressive weight loss go, They penalized me some $297.00  I won't ever do that again.
I'll continue this blog in another entry.

wild fires and acting Presidential

"Wild fires have been increasing in frequency and ferocity."

Mens Journal August 2014

This is a truth. As a person desiring to campaign for the US Presidency for the years 2016-2024,

This one of many things I would like to address.  My slogn "Not Politics as Usual", means even though dirt may be slung my way, I intend to shower off.  Part of me says that campaigning for US President should be a popularity race.  The only one I have to be popular with is "The Electorate".

But awiser partof me says A United States President has to havegood leadership.  Even though truthfully As US President I will have lots of people telling me what to do.  On the issue of wildfires, "an ounce of prevention is worth a pound of cure."  From 1993-2013 the cost of battling wild fires has gone from $240,000,000 to $1,800,000,000.  This is huge. Being an environmental and social activist means I like to be out in the woods camping out.  I have done this a lot. As a libertarian I enjoy my freedoms. When out camping in a woodland  I usually build 'Fire pits' instead of open camp fires. The difference is that a fire pit is a hole with rocks surrounding it and oftentimes a metal grating on top. This help reduce the spread of fire in case of wind.  But if I were to build a home like the many millions of Americans have in a so called "wooey", (woodland urban interface),  "Men's Journal, August 2014."  I would definitely take steps to keep my property from being kindling. Such as having a tin roof instead of wood or tar shingle roof.  I would probably have a chain link or stone work fence as well.  These two things  are a good start.  These are just acouple of things that ought to be done to inhibit the spread of  a potential wild fire.  

The state of New Mexico has done a lot of things to reduce therisk of future wildfires, I imagine if California asked, New Mexico would gladly help them with techniques and laws  they use to minimize  or prevent wildfires.  Aswell as showing whatcanbe done to helpreseedburnt out lands.  

Look Good Naked...What happens when?

What happens if you find yourself unable to exercise.  Maybe longer hours at work.  Or worseyet You go on vacation and find yourself not wanting to exercise like you used to.  Vacation times over but really youdo not want to go back to the gym.  Committing yourself to a healthier lifestyle thatincludes eating different and exercising more is like going to church on Sunday.  Easy to not do.  Where your mind goes your body follows. In this case its all going back to work is the easier thing.  That paycheck pays for everything else.  Geting back towork aftercoming off of  yourvacation isthe first step.  Now lets pick up the good eating.  The hardest thing now is to recommit to  start exercising again.  do this in baby steps, instead of running 4 miles lets just run a fewblocks thenmaybe some more.  These little things will have you back on your fitness trak soon enough.
    I need your help here, ask some questions to give me some more material to present.

Get your engines running again.
