Today is W1D2 - Remember I am following two routines (mentioned here).  The first is the TRX Pull Up Program.  The second is the Smart Food and Fit TRX Workouts.  Today, Day 2, is the Lower Body Circuit.Yesterday did not go so well.  I did one set of the W1D1 Circuit A that I have …

LinkIt One

For the Sky Net Now project (https://www.facebook.com/SKYNETNOW) I ordered some LinkIt One boards.  I love my Arduino Megas.  They are my favorite boards.  I've been blogging about them for a long time now (2.5 years ish?).  For the LUCAS (Lightweight Universal Catographic Atmospheric Sensors) modules I wanted to remove some components so we could test …

W1D1 – TRX PullUp workout

Nothing has changed since last week except that I didn't workout but 1/4 of one time.  I wasn't feeling well most of the week so I kicked in some candida supplements to knock that out again.  Today is really my first day all over again.After finishing just 2 sets my arms are like jello (which …

And so it begins… again Week 1, Day 1

I was struggling with how to layout my workouts since I finished the TRX Force workout.  I wanted to go gung-ho again and do a hour of cardio in the morning and at night and TRX at noon.  I was already tired from putting that plan together.  I seem to push things as though I …

12 weeks and continuing where I left off

It's time.  I fixed my stationary bike so the seat doesn't hurt when I ride for an hour.  I replenished the vitamins I just ran out of.  Finally, I adjusted my workout space so I have mats for the floor.I've noticed in 12 weeks that I've gone from feeling great to feeling bloated, crappy, and …

RobotShop V2 Rover

Lucas (alright I as well) have had grand ideas of cool robots.  This one, is cool, so far, but in the end will be too small for what we're going to do.  However, that hasn't stopped this from becoming the beginning of a cool little rover.If you go to the RobotShop and search for the …

11 weeks

Eleven weeks is how long I've not worked out.  For 10 weeks I didn't gain or lose any weight nor did I gain size.  this last week I gained 7 pounds, I could barely buckle my belt, and my jacket was a little tight when I was zipping it up yesterday.It's time to get back …

Simple HUD (electronics) with Arduino + BLE + OLED – Part 1

UPDATE - 10/10/14: This may not work with the Nano.  I've plugged everything in multiple times - the pin outs are both 40mA for the Mega vs the Nano.  It is possible that I've fried the Nano.  One Nano is connecting to the Arduino IDE where the other isn't recognized.  When I'm done debugging that …

Arduino Mega put bootloader on different Arduino Mega

At one time I was attempting to upload TFTP bootloader to my Arduino Mega.  Something happened during that upload (partially b/c the bootloader can't be uploaded via my pocket programmer) and the power went out on the programmer and I bricked my Mega.On your Master Mega -load the ArduinoISP sketch from the Exampleschange the Programmer …
