2026: MeditationsOnMortality-9

by Rupe | Oct 1, 2026

September 1-30, 2026: I am now 3470  Days   (approximately: 9 Years, 5 Month, 1 Days inclusive) on my workout streak (9APR2017).

Just to clarify (Sticky!): Over the period above, my workout streak  refers to the fact that is that I have manage to do something physical each and everyday regardless of how I feel or where I am to maintain my fitness.  I always do my Dailies and in addition - run, walk, row, cycle but usually run and walk, and depending on the day, I lift - upper body, lower body, or some type of hybrid.  This is my long term program and I have been at it now religiously since around 2015, but in earnest since April-May of 2017.

I am writing this on the 1st day of  October :  I will try my best not to push this writing beyond this moment that I am writing it.  Over the months and probably even years, it has grown to this monster that requires focused time to get done and as a result I tend to push it back and in some case altogether forget abou it. 

Generally speak the month has been a real reprieve from the heat of July and August.  It has still been a bit humid, but I really feel a huge difference over the last few weeks.      

AREA 1:

Body:

    **Routine (B+): Stasis.  I won't change this for this month again .  I have had some morning successes in getting out and walking but they have not been as consistent as I would have love it to be.   I have been trying to tie down AI to help but the work to do so continues.  I have made some success over the last few weeks it is not ready yet.  Once I do, however, I will let it loose in this particular area for sure.

**Physical Overall (A-)

     - Injuries/Aches (A-): Last month, this would have been a B+ but over the last few weeks, besides an annoying increase of tightness in my left hamstring/glute area, things have really gotten much better across the board.
         - Left Pinky - now I have to really wiggle it around to feel anything.  It is really not a bother now, but I will keep it here.
         - Right Shoulder - Huge improvement since wearing the slingshot.  I only feel it now while pressing hard at the gym.   
         - Right Elbow - intensity varies.  Some time it flares up and is a royal pain, but other times, it doesn't even register.  The brace helps.
         - Right Wrist - I put this in the same category, if not better, with the Pinky. I am really not having any issues right now. 
         - Lower Back (Right) - Up until about a week ago this had become a constant, but after a deadlift period a week ago, it has gotten better. 
         - Left Hamstring (left) - 

     - Lifting (A):  Early in the month I had to pull back for a week because I felt a weird sensation in my right groin area.  I rested it for a full weekand went back to previous pull for my deadlift.  So right now, I am pulling 445 once.  By other measure I should be beyond that, but I am taking it extremely slow, not wanting to sustain an injury in any way.  Right now I am motivated and I want to keep that.  I am targeting no more than a 10lb increase per month.  I believe if I can sustain that, I will stay injury free. 

  **Tracked Metrics (B):

     - Activities (A): I gonna to take it down a smidging because my distance for the month and cardio time was down 3 and 10% respectively.  My cut off is 98% for an A, so I have to keep it honest.

     - Sleep (C-):  I think I am gonna back off on the proclamation this month.  I am not going to run any experiments, I am just going to do my very best to get to bed no later than 0:130.  I believe if I can do that, I will be successful in getting the amount of sleep that I need in the quantities taht my boy needs them.  So with this approach, I will report back next month. 

   **Supplements:  No Change: 2x Berberine with meals, Psyllium Husk (fiber), multi-vitamins, B-complex and Magnesium, Lipo NR, Lipomizen , Curcumin, Creatine (10mg).

   **Diet:  No change: Continue steady state.  Salad and chicken continue to drive the bus; pork chops is making its mark as well.  My focus remains - (From a previous entry: The big focus this year once again is on A1c, kidney health, prostate health, cardio health, muscle gain and weight maintenance).   I running out of Beet Root powder so I will have to get some more.  I think I will have to acknowledge the fact I did not get rid of the batch from my last buy and not repeat it.  I believe I have gotten some good results and if nothing else it is helping me to sweeten my coffee. 

Biomarkers/Medical Check: 
- Urology: NTR
-  Sleep: NTR
- Neurology:  NTR.
- Labs:  Need to get re-labs to test Crestor.  My care team is useless to me.  Just my personal opinion.

Spanish/Chess:
  **Spanish (A-):  My streak on Duolingo (1514 Day) 9AUG2022 and Drops (1286 Days).  My Duo score is at  103 now.  This continue to trend of completing a section per month.   I will see if I can pick it up in the next few days to get to 104.  I think if I can do that I could get in 2 this month.  As fo Drops, I feel as though I am just maintaining because it is free.  I have called in a fix to the company because it appears there is a glitch in the app that has it serving up the same lession in the practice sessions.

*Reading/Listening:  I manage to finished 4 book in September.  This more my norm.  Last month I finished 7 but that is a function of the fact that most of them were very short listen.  Right now I am about 2 weeks into Brian Greene's Fabric of the Cosmos. It is a 22+ hour listen and I am really enjoying it.   I am considering takingon Tolstoy's War and Peace before year's end.

AREA 2:   

Financials:
Inflation: 3.3% ; Iran related (no change)
Gas Price:  >$400 ; Iran related (no change)
Markets: Inflation has not eased but honestly our portfolio has not really been suffering that much   (currently +8.60% YTD  and +1.10% (1-month)  as of 1.OCT.2026

Socio/Political:
US: Govt - The Mid-Terms are in the air and folks are expecting the OrangeOtang to do whatever he can to disrupt it.
US:  Military - Hegseth is still messing with the military, he is not calling for an additon 20% reduction in Admirals and Generals
US:  General - Tenessee botched and execution last evening. The victim is in critical condition in a hospital as I write these words  
US:  AI - Just about every AI company is reporting that their AI has escaped and broken into external systems onthe internet.  Getting ridiculous
World 1: US-Iran - There appears to be another pause in this conflict.  This is mostly due to a exhaustion of munitions on the US. side. 
World 1: Israel-Hamas / Israel-Lebanon: Not much on the Lebanese front, but folks are still being killed in Palestine.
World 3: Ukraine-Russia war continues.   Same sh*t different day.  White people killing each other. No real update; low grade boil.

DareBee
Still have not missed a day of Daily Dare - yup; not a one.

(Kept from previous foreword) - Additionally, I have added a couple layers of complexity or demand to my workout.  First, I am religiously sticking to DareBee and the Daily Dare; I am also, keeping the preliminaries.  Second, I have added a consecutive component - so, starting with the end of IronBorn (9 April 2017), I have worked consecutively.  I intend to push for 60 straight day, then see if I can get to 90.  So far I am enjoying it and my body seems to be rising to the occasion.  I caught the flu a few day before the end of the last phase (around May 2017) - I worked through it and was back up in only a couple of days.  It appears pushing through and forcing my body to continue working, I was able to push the flu out of my way.  I am also continuing my virtual push to OKC via Benton.  I am really enjoying that but I will have to pick up the mileage here in the next phase as I am running out of time. Keep leaning forward.
