I see some hate towards milk on this thread and I’m not sure how I feel about that. I drink close to half a gallon of milk a day. Usually straight from the jug like a beast. Is there really anything better than milk, red meat, and potatoes drenched in butter? I think not.

I’m getting a late start on my push-ups today. Been a busy weekend and I am very sunburned.

Raw milk or straight from the cow's teet might be good.

Yeah, I also been under this GOMAD (Gallon of Milk A Day), really helps when you do strength training like this 100 push up a day. I'll just go into a convenient store and bring it with me in the office, have it beside me in the table and jug it out from time to time.

Of course, this is not for everyone, specially if you are lactose intolerance, maybe you need to read the label of the milk first. Or they could be replacement like Soya Milk.

Really feels good to be stronger by the day doing this challenge. Grin

You need to be careful with some of the processed products, including milk, that is why I mentioned raw milk as being good... and for sure Soya is a processed product, and I am not going to claim to be any kind of expert regarding the extent to which it has benefits..

One of the benefits of real raw milk is that it has natural fat in it, when it is processed homogenized and pasteurized there can be problems with that process.. to take something that is alive and good for you and kill some of its nutrients and to make it so that it lasts longer, but that does not necessarily mean that it is still good for you in terms of inflammation that it can cause.. and yeah some people are more or less tolerant than others... it can be difficult to get raw milk, which is a kind of crime in itself.. .one of the sad things of modern living in terms of some of the foods being overly processed and/or dumbed down in various ways.... and there could be some good milk substitutes, but I am not sure if coconut milk is one of them.. .. and we likely would need to consider the matter in terms of how natural is the process of extraction and/or conversion into milk.. and what other ingredients might be contained in the product, and you might tolerate some of those a lot or think that they are good for you, but it is not always clear about some of the product... or even if they are labelled properly, including some of the GMO bullshit that is not even always labelled or required to be labelled.

The number of push-ups has now doubled in one day, I did 8 push-ups yesterday and 18 today in just one session. I started my challenge with high hopes but have been stuck at 5-7 push-ups for the past several days. I did 8 push-ups on both hands and feet,and another 10 push-up on both hands and knees....Don't get me wrong...I am trying and getting very good results. I have to face many problems due to my overweight, but this challenge I am sure to win. I have tried sweating myself and I am getting results my weight is still stable but I hope to lose it soon. In fact, the discussion greatly stirs the intellectual power of people and it is easy to use it in the workplace.
In addition to working out, the price of bitcoin is rising.....I hope to do 100 push-ups one day. As I am taking time to do this, it will take time for the price of Bitcoin to reach its desired goal. My morale is important in increasing push-ups and everyone should prioritize HOLDings to increase the value of Bitcoin.

I do think that diet and sleep are more important than exercise when it comes to losing weight, yet surely there can be a lot of difficulties to reduce the weight after it had already been put on, and as we get older, we do have troubles to keep our muscle mass.. so surely it is going to be helpful if you are using your muscles in ways that they had not been previously used, because that will contribute to your building muscles and/or toning your muscles and probably facilitate your body to use the nutrients from food more efficiently.. since muscle processes nutrients better than fat.. fat does not process nutrients it just sits there and waits for your muscles to need to use it up.

Even with me, I can feel more muscle definition in recent times, but my body fat has gone up a lot in the past several years, and so it takes a certain amount of activity to stop from losing some of the muscle mass, which I have some of my own limitations in terms of what kinds of things that I am able to do, that I used to be able to do, and several of those used to be able to do activities, I won't be able to get back to being able to do, but I can still work towards improvements in terms of some of the kinds of activities (or the level of exertion) that I can currently do, which includes getting back some muscle definition and energy that seems to have been helped from the 5 times a day pushups...

Right now, day 43 for me with 5,940 pushups, so far.. two more sets for today, still.

I don't really know if I'm the only one who's see this on Bitcoin price that's heading down where we don't want it to be or is it just trying to show those who never saw it getting past $67-69k? Huh...? I hope it gets back up again, or is it that some of us are not getting the job done like completing the push-up to 100? Or are some of us stopping at 60 that's why we have it at $68k now🤔🤔? Who's monitoring this push-up? We need to get it back up to $70k+ ones more.
I believe some of us are having this disappointing look on our faces after seeing the market price losing it's force of get to $100k, it must surely turn around anytime soon to a much higher price, ones it gets to $70k the journey to $100k continues.

A dump for ants... in other words, does not really even count for a dump.. yet.

I don't think is just an ordinary dump like you said because the way Bitcoin price is running down is so fast and this is the fastest dump I have seen since this year. We were expecting to see Bitcoin price going up but now is at $65k (this last time I checked), what seems to be the problem this time around? Well I hope this won't continue like this in this new week because if it does I believe it would kill the morale of those who have been holding for long and it might trigger some to start selling.

We can never know how long the dumps are going to last, yet we should be ready, willing and able to withstand them and to have plans about how to deal with them, whether it is just holding through or buying more... and we already had a couple of other quick dumps this year, from $49k to $38.5k and the other one from $64k to $59.5k and so these kinds of dumps are not unusual.. but they really have not been lasting, so far.. ..

Is true these type of dump don't last up to 2 weeks but from all indications it seems like it might take a little part of this week to keep maintaining the dump and to me I see it as a temptation to all those who are hodling.

Just because it might be a temptation for you, and you consider that it might be a temptation for others to dump (or to sell) here, I get the sense that you might not understand where we are at.

We are not at the top of a cycle, and so a lot of newbies (and even no coiners who are looking at BTC prices) get confused and they think that being at new ATHs in BTC is like being at the top of a cycle, but that is not very likely to be true, especially if you consider the context of both how we got here and what is going on in the space, and also if you might have noticed that when BTC prices pass through previous ATHs, there tends to not be very much resistance, and so even though you are feeling like there is resistance here or there might be resistance here, you are sounding mostly like a weak hand... and hey, you can do what you like... or maybe if you sell a bit of your stash you will feel better because you might be 1) over exposed or 2) lacking in conviction. You will feel good if you sell some of your BTC, until the price continues to go up and you are no longer able to buy BTC at these here prices, and you might question why you did not buy more, instead of selling.

The market movement at this point is some how heading upwards but I can't say it will rush back to $72-73k we saw it last, it will take it's time.

What is the rush? If you haven't overinvested then it should not matter. You can buy some more if the price drops further or just hold, but probably you are looking for a place to sell.. which truly does not seem to be any kind of sign of anyone with any level of conviction.. and yeah.. $100k is also likely another blip on the radar.. and people are making it out as if it is some kind of BIG deal, when it is not.. $100k is just another bump along the road... .. . and in the end.. no one really knows, and so you are responsible for your own level of conviction, and your own level of figuring out how much BTC to have, whether to keep buying and or at what point to sell, if at all..

Yes.. you sound like one of the weak hands that they would like to get to sell, and if you do, then you would likely regret it.

Newbies get so excited about short-term profits, and they tend to fail/refuse to recognize and appreciate the power of compounding value that comes from longer time holding of your BTC, and so if you are over-invested, sure shave off a bit, but otherwise, don't be over investing so much that you feel that you have to get a short-term profit when there is a hell of a lot more value in terms of figuring out longer term ways to hold your BTC and to enjoy the likely fruits of compounding value (and yeah, the compounding value is not guaranteed, but there is no real reason to consider bitcoin's investment thesis to be not be getting stronger with the passage of time).

Honestly I feel tempted when I saw the market price going down the drill but I think we're still on the right track, still believe that Bitcoin price would start a new beginning by heading to that target of hitting $100k+ without going down as it went few days back.

It is always going to go up and down, and we might even have some 20% to 30% corrections, and maybe also down the road people think that we we will get 50% corrections.

Sure any of that can happen right here or later... Sure, 20% to 30% is easier to achieve than 50% or more, but any of that is possible, and so you should have a bit of a plan to be able to deal with it, and if you need to sell some, then sell some. . but some people get screwed up in terms of thinking that it is all or nothing.

You have ONLY been registered on the forum for less than 1.5 years and if you started accumulating bitcoin since the time of your forum registration, then you have been spoiled because the BTC price has been mostly going up since you registered on the forum, so you may well could have accumulated a lot of BTC and be in a position to sell some...

Yet, I personally doubt that any newbie to bitcoin could easily establish a solid position in bitcoin in only a year, or even less than a whole cycle.. so personally, it seems better to continue to accumulate BTC, but hey, you might have come into bitcoin at a kind of weird time in which you have mostly ONLY experienced UP, so you have developed some bad expectations, including temptations to either stop buying or to sell and to take profits.. and you have to figure out some kind of plan for yourself how to deal with the situation and to assess if you have enough bitcoin or not.. if you don't have enough bitcoin, then you are not even in a position to be selling, so then you should just continue to buy, but to me it sounds like you are not even doing that.. so hey you are the one who has to figure out how to deal with making sure that you have enough BTC.. and probably stop thinking narrowly in terms of some short term profits that you might be able to make by selling and buying back cheaper and blah blah blah blah. that may or may not end up working out as you had expected.

I feel when traders and investors reason to sell is when they lack that other means of getting funds to cover for that long term period while hodling, there need to be a plan B and if there isn't it becomes a problem.

Traders are fucking around with short term price moves and likely to get fucked in times like these when they are likely selling too much too soon.. and investors do not sell until they have already reached a decent status, that is most likely going to be over at least a whole cycle and maybe even at least a couple of cycles, and investors may only sell parts of their holdings rather than all of it... but hey, there can be quite a few variants of both traders and investors.
