It may seem overly ambitious of me to start a diet and exercise program. I’m a caregiver, a father, a person who dabbles in technology and does something else entirely to pay bills. I’m sixty-four as I write this. I canceled my health insurance because it was too expensive. Next year I’ll have Medicare. I’m sure I have a torn maniscus. My occupation means I sit for long periods without stretching and it’s very sedentary. Worse, in 2021 I went off my former diet, gained fifty pounds, and now I have to lose it all over again.
I injured my knee swimming. I didn’t think that was even possible. My insurance required a six thousand dollar deductible – worthless, so I’m on hold for another year. What I started this program for was to put myself in a situation where I could get lots of great advice for people like me, who might not have money for coaches, physical therapy, surgery, etc., but who don’t want to let their injuries ruin their health otherwise.
More than that, I realized everyone was on their own track. People diet and exercise for all sorts of reasons. Many are young. Females have different hormones to deal with than men, and different goals. What I wanted, without paying much for it, was a place I could go to get customized answers. I couldn’t find any such place. Information was scattered. I could only piece together what I could and guess at what direction I should take.
I’m also an entrepreneur, an inventor and a philosopher. I founded the Pamalogy Society and I founded the Cro-Magnon.Diet. I have no plan to dictate what the Cro-Magnon.Diet is other than to provide a few philosophical principals that should guide and define it. It is the diet, exercise and coaching program that helps each unique person to be and become their best – maximizing their awesome potential for the present and the future. I see it as a social program that optimizes not just the awewomeness of the individual but of the human community.
Yes, I think big. What can I say? It’s how I’m wired.
Right now, I”m experimenting with the technology that will go into an online community I’m building. My hope is to move from “dabbling” status to “pretty good at it” status. Things work better and faster that way. This technology is somewhat new to me. It’s my first time using Post-Grid. If you are a techie who does back end WordPress stuff, let me know. Most of my other sites are not community sites. But I wanted researchers and professionals and experienced gym rats and those who’ve tested programs to let me know what they think.
Then there is the entrepreneur side of me. I thought that maybe I could attract enough professionals to put something together to profit on that would at the same time truly serve the public. There may be money in this for you. If you want an opportunity, help me develop this program. I’ll manage the philosophy. You help with the research that the philosophy calls for. I think you will find the concept lends itself to becoming the best of class in diet and exercise. Whether that happens will depend on the partipation and effort of the community. Will you help?
