Google Fit Day 5

Hi everybody!

This is the fifth tracking day of me exercising, and so far it feels so good. I am so blessed to have a great environment to do the exercise, everything feels great! 🙂

My Walking Path — with Trees! 😀
I Love The Color of The Sky! 🙂
My Morning Almost-1-Hour-Walk.

I wish you all healthy body and mind, and be convinced that today is itself a huge blessing to all of us, another chance to see another day.

Be happy!

Google Fit Day 4

Hi again!

So this is the visual of my afternoon walk as tracked by Google Fit.

Google Fit Day 4: 3,682 Steps!

It feels good right after doing it…

It takes the will to exercise regularly, but it is the action that makes the difference.

As Nike says, “Just do it!

Google Fit Day 2, Extended

After morning session of walking, I continued to walk around 30 minutes this evening. Another half-hour walk.

30 Minutes Walk ~ 3,000 Steps

As can be seen above, 30 minutes walk is around 2 point something kilometers; about 3,000 steps, and 150 calories burned, give or take.

It definitely feels good to exercise regularly… 🙂

My Numbers So Far…

And those are my numbers so far…

Google Fit, Day 2

So, Google Fit Day 1 continues…

On day 2, I was still using the same track as day 1: the lanes in-between waste water ponds on the palm oil mill I am working at. It’s a bit smelly, you know, but not so much to the extent that it affects your mood to walk around it. After all, my nose is already adapted to the smell, hahaha… 😀

Here is my visual for day 2:

Google Fit Tracking for Day 2

As you can see above, my time is still around 30 minutes, burning 149 calories, 2.25 kilometers of distance, obtaining 23 heart points.

And here is my track around the ponds:

My Walking Path
Trees! 🙂
The Boot! – Safety Boots, Indeed…

So, that’s it for day 2. I hope you are all well and healthy and fresh and peaceful… 😉

Have a great day, folks!

Using Google Fit, Day 1

So yesterday, 30-th of July 2019, I started using an app called Google Fit. Basically, this is an app to track your exercise activities.

This is my result for day 1:

Day 1 Activity : Walking

Why using the app?

I am simply curious about the distance I can reach by walking around 30 minutes. It’s that simple.

The app gives more information like the amount of calories burned after the exercise, the steps, etc.

So I think it’s quite good to know more about your exercise, but the main thing here is, definitely, your will and consistency of doing it. After all, it’s for your fitness.

So, would you like to give it a try? 😉

On Sleep

Enough sleep, in fact, is an unnegotiable biological need. That is one among the bold points made by Matthew Paul Walker on the following embedded video.

There are positive benefits, to our body and our brain, even to our psychology, from getting enough and quality sleep.

On the other side of the line, negative impacts from lack of sleep are so damaging, affecting our health to an extent worse than many of us have expected.

Matt Walker on Sleep

On the video above, Matt Walker explains the real benefits of enough sleep and the real impacts caused by the lack of it in a clear language complete with easy-to-digest analogies. Aside from 8-hour sleep rule for adults that many of us might have already familiar with, the room temperature requirement of 18 degree Celcius for optimum sleep is what I believe to be useful.

Having seen the video, I think it is now becoming so clear to us just how crucial a good and enough sleep is. It should be fully appreciated as Mother Nature’s way to ‘recharge’ us, so to speak, making sure we are fully energized to face another day.

Still, sleep deprivation remains a problem for many. Shift workers, for example, who basically work ‘against‘ their own biological clock, which is found by science far less than effective in terms of performance. There is no good answer to this, I think, but the science of sleep explained by scientist like Mark above gives us an insight to really understand a part of our nature as human beings: We do absolutely need a good and enough sleep.

How’s your sleep? 😉
