MJR Health Update – June 15th

One of the neat things about the Apple fitness app and Watch is that you can earn awards, kinda like Trophies or Achievements on gaming consoles. Recently got an Elliptical Award (above) for getting 306 calories on June 6th. I guess that’s good?! I typically set the elliptical to 30 minutes and “Fat Burner” and come off at the end of that workout sweaty, which is good.

And as you can see below I continued to work out 6 out of 7 days last week, often going way over the daily minimum requirement.  However, I still only lost an additional 2lbs… and somebody in the comments said I may actually be doing too much cardio?! I didn’t even know that was a thing.  It may also be time for me to try intermittent fasting?

I Modded My GameCube with the GC Loader!

Square Pegs – I picked up the GC Loader a few months back, and I’ve been sitting on it for awhile – every time I thought I’d pull the trigger on modding the GameCube, I talked myself out of it. But one my my patrons, Blair, talked me into biting the bullet – so here, warts and all, is my modification of my GameCube with the GC Loader plug and play, an SD Card port extension, and a mounting plate to easily access the SD card port.

Mayflash F300 CUSTOM Dreamcast Controller MOD | Sanwa JLF Stick & Sanwa Buttons

The Retrollectors – Mayflash F300 CUSTOM Dreamcast Controller MOD | The Retrollectors | Today I modified a Mayflash f300 arcade stick to resemble one of my favourite arcade sticks of all time. The Dreamcast HKT 7300, I swapped out the stock Mayflash buttons and arcade stick to a Sanwa JLF Arcade stick and Sanwa OBSF buttons. The modification doesn’t end there, I felt that I wanted to replicate the Dreamcast HKT 7300’s overall look so lets change that and add some Mayflash artwork to revamp its stock look.
