WOW instead of Whoo

A extensive study done in 2017 revealed that:
"people exercise for an average of 37 minutes with musical accompaniment, compared to just 22 minutes without music. Also, the heart rates of people exercising to music far exceeded those of people who weren’t listening to music while exercising. The psychological and physical impact of musical accompaniment to exercise is very noticeable and is very likely to positively influence the effectiveness of the workout."

In other words, music can affect the duration and intensity of a workout.

Easy to tweak moves with music are what has kept me moving regularly for over 20 years, starting with TaeBo.  I can tweak most simple moves to feel good while health bouncing on a bungee or even sitting on a chair.

If I didn't like the audio but liked the moves, I used my own music.
Nothing kills a workout session for me quicker than an instructor who screams irritating noises like *Whoo* (a bad habit of most workout video instructors) so I avoid any audio that disrupts the effect of the music on my desire to move.

That being said, it is obvious why WalkingOnlineWorkouts has been my favorite streaming site for over a year with great soundtracks, simple moves, and mostly outdoor scenery.

Guinea Pig Update

I have been trying various products to feel better in my own skin, mentally and physically.
Herbal Mana products have been rising to the top of my list of weapons in my personal battle.

Most products give immediate relief to acute pain.
Herbal Mana products seems to have a more general effect which help sleep and relieve stress, besides relieving pain.
This morning for example, I woke up and felt like it was going to be a bad day.  My legs and feet ached and were threatening to cramp and I had a headache, even though I slept well.  I applied Inner Warrior cream to my feet, ankles, and knees.   Almost immediately, the threat was replaced with an inner calm and feeling comfortable.

Many of the Herbal Mana products target fibromyalgia.
I believe I have had a random pain problem my whole life that became worse after developing peripheral neuropathy and some arthritis.  Spending thousands of dollars on a specialist did help me lose weight and dodge the metabolic disease bullet but did not make me comfortable in my own skin.  After feeling the instant turnaround in my mind and body this morning, I no longer fear a bad night or a bad morning.

I believe I have found an arsenal of weapons against the vicious cycle of pain, insomnia, and stress.

Herbal Mana Quick Update

I have now slept well 4 nights in a row without night time Tylenol
which is a record LOL
Also that nasty brain fog, headache, and nausea are gone.

The Herbal Mana SLEEP is great
and its roll-on is the only one without DMSO
I have not had a cramp and the feet burning is more tolerable
I fall asleep easily and can go back to sleep easily after bathroom trips during the night.

I use the DMSO stuff mostly on my hands and elbows 
and the no DMSO Inner Warrior cream on my feet and neck in the morning

During the day I use various stuff as needed
if I feel stressed, I use HOPE roll-on on hands (DMSO)
and/or the cream on neck.
Usually I have an hour nap soon afterwards.

I am hoping this regimen keeps my spiking cortisol in check and my blood sugar and A1C get out of the pre-diabetic range

Herbal Mana CBD Pain Bomb and other DMSO products did not seem to do anything special for me but were used minimally because of the need to thoroughly wash the target areas before application.
I doubt I will order anymore DMSO products so I do not have to worry about washing the areas
However, I love the triple pack of Inner Warrior, Sleep, and Hope creams with their roll-ons.
(Inner Warrior and Hope roll-ons do contain DMSO)

Teeter Renew Roll On and Canvas 1839

One more pain relief ointment worth a try.
I got a sample of Teeter's Renew Pain Relief Roll-on for less than $6 S&H
Besides giving me immediate relief, it seems to heal too.
It worked great on my back in a hard to reach area without even massaging it in.

https://teeter.com/product/renew-muscle-relief-cream/
(I chose the roll-on)

It is sold on amazon
https://www.amazon.com/Teeter-Renew-Roll-Boswellia-Glucosamine/dp/B077W1MPTP?th=1

It has a strong scent but I like it LOL



Also another sample may be worth trying from Canvas 1839
just $2 for a decent size sample of On the Go Relief Cream that has CBD

4 K Video Downloader

I have been using the 4K Video Downloader for youtube and facebook videos and have found it to work wonderfully.  It downloads the highest quality for free!
It is a great alternative for those who use the Chrome browser.

DMSO

I may like the  Herbal Mana creams without DMSO more than the DMSO products!
Less anxiety about washing the areas and no garlic taste
The essential oils may work better without DMSO
HOPE cream was amazing.  
HOPE actually relaxed me and made me comfortable in my skin more than SLEEP
At least, I did not cramp and woke up only once to reapply SLEEP
but I was hoping it would last all night,
Unfortunately, the second night was not an improvement.
SLEEP did not make me feel *drugged* or even sleepy either night.
Inner Warrior cream without DMSO after waking made me feel good with more energy than HOPE.
My plan is to use Inner Warrior and Hope creams as needed for mood elevation and relaxation
and will use DMSO stuff just on my hand or any painful area as needed if Outback or Meg Relief fail.
