Well, I did my last workout of 2006 at Gold's Gym, Ann Arbor, the site of many a workout these past few months as they have been sponsoring our Muscle Ventures Blog. This blog has been kind of dormant while Nancy and I have been faithfully updating muscle ventures once or twice a week with a podcast or video analysis. I suspect the blog will remain dormant because I just don't have enough time with my learning remix activities and muscle ventures blogging to keep this up.
I started this blog a little over a year ago a hurting puppy. My mother had died just a few months before. I was getting beaten down by over training. Nancy was prepping for her show and was kind of hell bent. Well, we made it through Nancy's show and started periodized weight training, a sort of god sent antidote to over training. Then this Fall, Nancy's mother in law, Virginia, died suddenly putting a weight of grief on her and her husband, Jim. Through it all, we continued put a good amount of effort into our shared activity muscle ventures. I expect my focus will remain there. Nancy and I get a kick out of it, and we've had pretty good success with the site. Last week, Google video indicated that our videos had had 134,000 viewings.
I may come back to this site at some point or incorporate a version of it into Muscle Ventures. In the mean time, you can follow Nancy's and my adventures there. Here's the relevant URLs:
- http://muscleventures.com/home for the latest podcasts and video exercise analyses. Expect about one or two updates a week.
- http://muscleventures.com/video for the latest exercise analyses only.
- http://muscleventures.com/podcasts for the latest interviews only.
Sad to see it die like that, but it's entirely understandable. I hope it's going to stay online for possible future resurrection (and as a permanent resource).

I don't see taking it off line, and I suspect I could return. At this stage, I'm so overworked that I've had to make a choice. It has been a nice blog for off-hand comments about training. My suspicion is that I could start back here more after a big deadline in February.
