Thanks, whitway! Today was Day 5 on my nosdiet, and it was fine: no snacks, no sweets, and no seconds for me today. I'm waiting on my nosdiet book to arrive; it should be here any day now. Today was also Day 5 of shovelglove for me and I am baffled as to how I can be so exhausted after only 14 minut...

Note to self: do not use hand lotion minutes before attempting shovelglove. oh, and recently I decided to buy the weight lifting gloves that Reinhard found for himself. I only use them every other day. Jules, did Reinhard get the gloves because he was having a hard time gripping the handle? I find ...

Shovel naked :shock: You don't really need anything around your Hammer. It does soften the blow if you happen to graze yourself while swinging around though. Yeah, I'm trying to stay away from the whole "graze" possibility. Something tells me a "graze" from my sledgehammer would do a little more th...

I had a big deadline today, so I was up all night working. Let's just say that no sleep doesn't go well with shovelglove. I got pretty nauseous afterwards, although it couldn't have been helped by the eggs and yogurt I had eaten about 20 minutes earlier... Just in case anyone is wondering, the eggs...

Shugging on zero sleep can be hazardous to your health...

Thanks, blueskighs! Today was good; I didn't snack all day. I also did my shovelglove routine this morning. I found out quickly that you should definitely get some rest before doing any physical exercise, much less shovelglove. I had a big deadline today, so I was up all night working. Let's just sa...

Today was my first shovelglove day, too.

I ran into a problem mid-way through the routine: my sweatshirt came off the sledgehammer. I'm still trying to figure out an effective way to tie it on without the sleeves whipping around all the time. :lol:

Hey, I'm new to this, but I think this public check-in is a great way to foster accountability. I bought my sledgehammer today (10#) and started my first routine tonight. I had to keep consulting the youtube videos to get the movements right, but I made it through. I also started the nosdiet today. ...
