Pac Man Motivation

Glutathione in your body acts like many little Pac Men working on your behalf to gobble up toxins.

Detours and excuses abound, to avoid working out.

Entertain some rational consideration of any one of the benefits of working out, however, and you can gain some motivation to detour the detours.

Today’s featured motivation is something you can either pay about $20 an ounce for or which you can get for free if you workout. It is called glutathione.

One doctor whom I heard mention glutathione recently said that glutathione in your body acts like a Pac Man which gobbles up toxins.

Xlnt! A new motivation to add to the list of good reasons for working out!

In other words (if you don’t know what “xlnt” means), “Excellent!”

Funny that I’ve never before thought of Pac Man as anything other than one of the first and most wildly popular of early video games.

You can buy glutathione supplement at places like Results RNA website which features bottles of it like the one pictured below, for either about $40 or $75 for the 2 or 4 ounce bottles. But why buy it? How do you know that spraying it in the mouth is an effective way to boost glutathione? I’d rather have it made “in-house” in my own body. Of course for some people who are perhaps bedridden or for some other reason not able to workout, it might be worth considering. My personal opinion is that personally manufactured glutathione probably works best of all. (I have no affiliation with the “Results RNA” website and can’t say anything pro or con regarding their products.)

Today’s workouts were hampered to a degree by annoying heart behavior. They consisted of a 200 Calorie SkiErg session and a 10K rowing session. Each of the workouts caused some sweating and generated new Pac-Men to gobble up toxins.

The heart rate graphs for the 10K rowing are very messy looking because heart rate was so irregular that the Polar Heart Strap transmitter and Concept 2 PM3-mounted heart rate signal receiver had a difficult time figuring out what to display. Heart straps on the chest tend to be more accurate than wrist-mounted heart rate detectors but the Apple Watch seemed to have an easier time keeping track of heart rate than the Polar Heart Strap did today. Perhaps it was something to do with the irregular heartbeat.
