Yesterday I took it down a notch. My Fridays are the busiest day of the week for me. I'm teaching all day so I'm out of the house from early in the morning to late at night. Then after the kids go to bed I always want to knock out two Hive posts, my regular daily post for my @dbooster account and the Poet of the Week post for Blockchain Poets, both of which I always schedule to post in the morning, probably shortly after I post this, which I'm writing in the morning.
Hmm..that sounds more confusing than it probably is. Time zone confusion. At any rate, I've been posting daily so long that I'm not wanting to stop now (I think the last time I missed a day was shortly after the Steem hardfork a few years ago) unless I'm forced to do so. I wouldn't call it a compulsion, but it is a habit and daily goal that I always want to keep. And the Poet of the Week is something I'm also not about to miss. I'm constrained on the day I do that. The Inleo guys, who sponsor that post, want it up by Friday evening PST time, which I think is, well, around now when I post this, so I have to prepare it on Friday night my time. It should be up by now when you read this if I scheduled it correctly. Go check out Blockchain Poets to be sure if you are into poetry (and vote for the Poet of the Week).
Hmm... that's a bunch of word soup there. Sorry. It's early; I'm tired. I should go make some coffee.
Anyway, I wanted to avoid doing all my squats right before bed again because it led to some lower abdominal pain last night. Therefore I decided on an easy day with sets of 20 spread throughout the day. And that's exactly what I did. Every few hours I did a set. Five sets in all, giving me 100 for the day.
That brings me to 1,785 for the month!
I'm doing this 100 Squats per day Challenge with @livinguktaiwan, @pardinus, and @xrayman to raise funds for Cancer Research. Read my challenge announcement here.
If anyone else wants to join, please do, and please mention it here! And if you want to donate, please donate here or send HIVE/HBD directly to @livinguktaiwan and she will convert it to fiat and donate it herself.
Almost all of us will have to deal with cancer in our lifetimes, either we will get it or someone we love will get it. 1 in 8 women will eventually get breast cancer. An astonishing 1 in 3 men will eventually get prostate cancer. There are many other cancers with similar scary high rates. If you are able, please consider donating or spreading the word of this fundraiser.

Although you had a busy day, you still managed to get the 100 squats, good job!
Maybe even more impressive to me is that you've posted daily since the hard fork, congratulations on that one as well!
Doing my best. There are a few on here that have posted daily since Steemit began, so I can't match that. I'm close, but I did miss a lot of days in the early years.
That's really great! I am already happy if I manage to write an article atleast 3-4 times a week :D
Wow!! You been posting every day? That's incredible. And now you got to do the squats as well. Sorry for giving you more work to do in your already busy day😉. Writing has never been my strength, often it takes me more than a day to write a decent post and sometimes like this week I just dont feel like writing at all.
your small set strategy seems to be good way to work around a busy schedule
I missed too many in the early days so there are a few around here I can't compete with, but I have been every day since the fork. I have reduced the haiku and Japan posts I do and tried to branch out these past few years, but it is still daily. I often don't feel like writing either, to be honest, but I consider it a good writing exercise to force myself to get something out.
Thanks for adding more to my plate 😃
