The APP iBotta

2013-11-13T11:50:00.001-08:00

I recently tried out the iBotta app in my quest to save money and not be a college student running around in debt. From https://ibotta.com, The app works like a reverse coupon. It pays you money to you paypal account when you buy certain items. On my first shopping trip I spent $65 and the app payed my $18. Now I am a bit worried that most of the money came from bonuses for new users and my next shopping trip won't be so fruitful. I will post an update after my second trip.

It doesn't matter if you use my code or not, just check it out.

Saving money

2013-11-12T22:57:00.001-08:00

So, to finance the insane amount of money I spend on protein powder and food I have been looking into money saving/generating apps. So far I have found IBotta, Panel, OnGo Surveys, and Easy Shift. I am messing with all of them this week and I will do a write up of each of them soon.

Hot Fitness Girls

2013-11-11T08:25:00.000-08:00

My buddies and I are always throwing around the debate as to the attractivness of super fit ladies. I think they are crazy hot but I notice more and more that most guys seem intimidated by girls who are fit, or at the very least would rather not have the headache of being around someone who is going to be constantly hit on. I see their point, but oh man, it's worth it.

Sleep Pushing

2011-04-19T13:42:00.001-07:00

I recently read about sleep pushing which if it works would be a nifty trick to know. The idea is if you can only get 2 hours or less of sleep in a night for some reason, you take a decent sized dose of caffeine (80 - 120 mg) and take your nap. The caffeine pushes you into deeper sleep cycles faster and helps hold you there. This allows you to get more quality sleep in less time.

Female Bodybuilder

2011-04-17T09:08:00.000-07:00

I have always wondered what the general opinion on female weight lifters is. Do people think they are attractive or freakishly muscled. I for one think most of them are hot, but there are a few out there that just don't look like women anymore. This lady still gets the thumbs up from me.

10 Common Mistakes that Violate Google's Adsense Terms Of Service

2011-04-16T07:29:00.000-07:00

1. Never click your own adsense ads or get them clicked for whatever reason. You know this one very well. This is a surefire way to close you Adsense account. Never tell your office associates or friends to click on them. Keep a check if your family or children are busy increasing your income by clicking your ads and indirectly trying to stop your income. Dont even think of offering incentives for clicks, using automated clicking tools, or other deceptive software. Adsense is very smart to detect fraudulent clicks. Check the ads which appear on your pages by the Google Preview tool if required.

2. Never change the Adsense code. There are enough means of adsense optimization & customizations available to change the colour, background or border to suit your needs. Do whatever you want to do outside the code, never fiddle within the ad or the search code. They know it when you do. The search code has more limitations to colour and placement, but you should adhere to the rules. The code may stop working and violates the TOS.

3. Do not place more than 3 ad units and 3 ad links or 2 adsense search boxes on any web page. Anyway, ads will not appear in those units even if you place more ad units. But this is the limit they set, so it is better to stick to it.

4. Do not run competitive contextual text ad or search services on the same site which offer Google Adsense competition in their field. Never try to create link structures resembling the adsense ads. Never use other competitive search tools on the same pages which have Adsense powered Google search. They do allow affiliate or limited-text links. Update: Google has allowed you to run contextual advertising like Yahoo ads, Chitika etc provided the ads do not resemble Adsense ads.

5. Do not disclose confidential information about your account like the CTR, CPM and income derived via individual ad units or any other confidential information they may reveal to you. However, you may reveal the total money you make as per recent updates to the TOS.

6. Label headings as “sponsored links” or “advertisements” only. Other labels are not allowed. I have seen many sites label ads with other titles. Dont make your site a target in a few seconds gaze.

7. Never launch a New Page for clicked ads by default. Adsense ads should open on the same page. You may be using a base target tag to open all links in a new window or frame by default. Correct it now as they do not want new pages opening from clicked ads.

8. One Account suffices for Multiple websites. You do not need to create 5 accounts for 5 different websites. One account will do. If you live in the fear that if one account is closed down for violation of TOS, believe me they will close all accounts when they find out. You can keep track of clicks by using channels with real time statistics. They will automatically detect the new site and display relevant ads.

9. Place ads only on Content Pages. Advertisers pay only for content based ads. Content drives relevant ads. Although you might manage some clicks from error, login, registration, “thank you” or welcome pages, parking pages or pop ups, it will get you out of the program.

10. Do not mask ad elements. Alteration of colours and border is a facility to blend or contrast ads as per your site requirements. I have seen many sites where the url part is of the same colour as the background. While blending the ad with your site is a good idea, hiding relevant components of the ads is not allowed. Also do not block the visibility of ads by overlapping images, pop ups, tables etc.

This is a great list, and from what I hear a ban is not easy to overturn. As a new blogger I will do my best not to get in trouble with the almighty Google.

As a side note, can anyone confirm if Freepostia violates any of the Google's TOS. I love the service and use it frequently.

New blogs

2011-04-16T06:11:00.000-07:00

I have been looking for fitness or nutrition related blogs on blogger. I stumbled across this one http://dragmireny.blogspot.com/. It have pic's of recopies and most of them are great for anyone who is bulking, they are worth checking out.

On a side note, do anyone know how to search blogger for a certain type of blogs? I can't seem to find a search feature to I have been using Google's blog search tool.

What will you look like at age 47?

2011-04-16T05:36:00.000-07:00

We can all agree that goal setting is fairly important if you want to do anything amazing with your life. Here we have two different individuals. Both are successful, but one is a fitness enthusiast and the other is a car junkie. I think at age 47 I would rather be the guy on the left, but I would like to have more money then both of them.

Betterment

2011-04-15T14:58:00.000-07:00

Time to take a quick detour from physical health to financial health. I have been investing with better for a little while now and so far I love it. I can make as many withdraws or deposits per month as I want with no fees. It's more like a bank account with incredible interest then a typical investment account. Best thing is there is no set amount of money to start your account and you can withdraw all your money at any time with no fee or penalty.

Blood Oxygen Level

2011-04-14T05:41:00.000-07:00

I love this TED talk. It's only 4 minutes long but it goes over what it takes for you to grow your own fresh air. You could effectivly live your life "blood doping" just by having 6 - 12 plants in your office or house. I already own a Spider plant, Snake plant, and a money tree. So all I need to do is buy a few more and find the Areca palm.

A higher blood oxygen level will promote faster healing and better focus and performance. So if your into fitness this is definitely worth looking into.

N.O. Xplode

2011-04-13T18:53:00.000-07:00

Quick post, I ended up taking my pre workout supplement and got sidetracked before the gym. Now I am freaking out doing a boatload of chores and destroying all this work I have been putting off. This stuff is awesome.

Freepostia

2011-04-13T14:57:00.000-07:00

I have a few pictures up on http://freepostia.com/index.php It is a free image hosting service that links to your adsense to you get money if people click on your ad next to your photo. It's a neat service but I am not sure if it can make you any money.

If anyone else knows of a similar service or another cool money generating idea online let me know. I am always down for trying some new stuff.

Insanity Asylum

2011-04-13T07:09:00.000-07:00

The new Insanity program just came out, It is an excellent time and I am really considering stopping my bulking cycle and giving this a shot. I am really excited about the program and it looks like torture.

Adsense

2011-04-12T04:32:00.000-07:00

I am extremely new to blogging, I was wondering if anyone had an opinion if it is tacky to put up a adsense ad block on your site. I like the idea of having one around to possibly make a few bucks, but If it could discourage visitors then it wouldn't be worth it.

Cellucor T7

2011-04-12T04:28:00.000-07:00

This is what I think I am going to try in conjunction with the Insanity or P90X program to cut weight for the summer. I should be starting soon as I have a 5 mile run coming up in July and I would like to be back down to 10%ish bodyfat.

If you have tried it or have any thought on the product let me know, It seems to be one of the best out there aside from it's obnoxious cost. I am excited, I have been doing "GOMAD" (Gallon of Milk a Day) to bulk up so far and it's not the most pleasant thing to do.

New Blog

2011-04-12T04:17:00.000-07:00

   The Intent of this blog is to have a virtual record of things I buy, do, and fitness/health related goals. If this blog ends up getting a following (unlikely) I may consider moving it to SquareSpace or something that is a bit more customizable.

   I am currently on a bulking cycle. I moved up from 137 to 144 in about a month, some of that weight was from starting creatine. My bench is up from 250ish to 305 and so is my military press.

   I may consider doing a hardcore cut soon and following either the P90X or insanity program, posting progress pics would be great fun and I could review the program as well as any supplements I try such as the PAGG stack or possible T7 by Cellucor.
