Week 106 โ€“ Detox Extended

 ·  โ˜• 6 min read

The week was okayish for the most part, I did not miss social media but I don’t think my time was any better utilized, but for now, I still choose this over social media and with that I would like to extend my detox to 2 more weeks, making it a full 30 days detox.

Personal Highlights

I don’t know, I feel like skipping a few weeks of weekly blogging but then again I don’t think I would really be using that time to do something meaningful and it would also lead to me breaking the 2 years of the streak.

Fitness

Very intensive week in terms of working out.

  • Gym
    Went to the gym 6 days in a row for the first time, because I had a change in my daily gym workouts, prior to this week I was doing 2 muscle groups per day but from now I will be focusing on one muscle group every day.

  • Morning Run
    Hey, I even went for a run in between out of nowhere and to my surprise it didn’t suck despite taking a month off my running my VO2 max level seemed the same, which is very strange because 14 days of no running will 100% decrease your VO2 max.
    I think I somehow maintained my VO2 max by working out in the gym regularly ๐Ÿ˜ณ

    Well now that I think of it this week was great in terms of fitness because I also started a sort of challenge with friends from my telegram group

Learning

  • Reading: I finished reading the Ravana comic which I had mentioned in my last blog
    Ravana: Roar of the Demon KingRavana: Roar of the Demon King by Abhimanyu Singh Sisodia

    My rating: 4 of 5 stars


    Very short but understandable, writing at times felt like it was written for a noble and not a comic book but love the art style very mature and aesthetic ๐Ÿ™Œ

    Makes me want to explore more campfire graphic novels.
    View all my reviews
    I actually looked for other campfires graphic novels in a nearby Crossword and was impressed by their art style but none of them matched that of the Ravana book and so I decided not to get them for now.

  • I also read a bit of Do Epic Shit by Ankur Warikoo and I have to say I am quite disappointed I don’t know why but I expected more than just random vague unrelated tweets compiled in the name of a book, wouldn’t even call it a book tbh.

Job Update

The first half of the week had work + calls.

The second half was relatively light

Also, one of my edited reels got posted on Swiggyโ€™s Instagram ๐Ÿ˜

Business Updates

Octalancer got a new web dev [Wordpress] client ๐Ÿ˜ณ

And I am just confused about which direction to go with the whole octalancer thingy ๐Ÿ˜”

So, another Marvel movie, and I wasn’t excited for it at all but still you know it’s a major characterโ€™s movie, thereโ€™s no way I was gonna miss it.

After watching however I wish I had missed it ๐Ÿคง

I did see a couple of bad reviews before I went to watch the movie and boy were they right๐Ÿ˜ฉ

I had very low expectations from the movie but even then I got disappointed, which made me think about expectations and thus the opinion that I shared above in the blog.

Series ๐Ÿ“บ

The Boys S3 E8

The final episode of the season

Well they did not deliver what I had predicted and it makes me like them even more ๐Ÿ˜ฟ
