What’s next?
Added 2020-09-28 01:36:25 +0000 UTCHello there patreon! I’ve been doing some thinking about what I want to do this month. Not just in regard to patreon but also in regards to life. I’d personally like to focus a bit more on eating healthy and setting fitness goals. To me that means finding something manageable. No diets, just positive changes. I’ve dabbled with posting about fitness on here in the past but I always fall off. With that in mind, is this something you all woudl be interested in me posting about?
Now when I normally post stuff like this people tend to say “yes” because well... it’s not effort on their part so it’s easy to say yes. But genuinely, is this something you would enjoy seeing or is it wasted space on this feed? I know lots of folks aren’t here for fitness advice, but I also know there are people who look to me as inspiration (for some crazy reason).
Anyway, I’m still not sure what to do but I love to pick you’re guys brains becuase as the cast of high school musical once sung “We’re all in this together”

Knowing what works for you, even if it only gave us ideas for our own needs, would be really neat.

2020-09-30 11:52:47 +0000 UTCYes please trying to remain committed to fitness is hard in these times.

2020-09-30 07:53:20 +0000 UTC6 month goal to get that summer bod. Good start so far! 5% body fat down
Richie Jatmatama
2020-09-30 03:41:35 +0000 UTCThank you. I am proud of my progress as well. They say that slow and steady wins the race. But who are "they" anyways? And I don't like races. I am more like a dwarf, very dangerous over short distances. LOL. However, tonight's supper was a small feed of Linguini Alfredo. Don't kill me, as I make my sauce from 10% cream (not 35%) nor any egg. And forget the con thing, I was more suggesting if you have tips for exercising while on the road, as a topic. Hugs.
John Dwyer
2020-09-30 00:28:11 +0000 UTCYou know I was out when you posted this and forgot to comment my thoughts, I think it’s a good idea you post like what you do and stuff we know it doesn’t work for everyone but it may help for some of us to get us started in a healthier life style. So I say go for it and you could probably make like a “before and after” type of thing of what you want to achieve or what you do when you want to look a certain way or stuff like that
Renato Zebadua
2020-09-29 23:01:27 +0000 UTCI personally would love to see it. I am working o a lot of health changes right now myself and it would be nice to follow along and have some motivation.

2020-09-29 18:58:13 +0000 UTCBut the Kinky.... :(
Stasi Cavadias
2020-09-29 15:28:33 +0000 UTCAnd I get that, but your followers should understand that fitness is important to you just as cosplay/geeky/nerdy content. if you're willing to share your life in your content, then they should understand that includes potentially all aspects and view it as a positive, not a negative.
Guy Baker
2020-09-29 15:03:31 +0000 UTCI would wager it's impossible to always make content that everyone enjoys (people are a fussy lot) but we all appreciate the effort, and any post that includes a photo of you is worth my time.
David Pasteelnick
2020-09-29 14:58:32 +0000 UTCWell I strive to make content everyone can enjoy so I appricate the comment. If I do jump into this is will likely be a once a week update and I’ll try to make sure the picture at the very least is enjoyable lol
Michael Hamm
2020-09-29 14:35:56 +0000 UTCIf you buy me one lol. This is just a shitty home bike from amazon
Michael Hamm
2020-09-29 14:34:48 +0000 UTCI honeslty beleive slow is the right way to do it. That’s been my real issue. I yo yo diet. Diet, binge, diet, binge. It’s a bad cycle. I’m proud of you for taking your time and doing it right! I’ll try the cont thing but for me the con life is more about eating well cause I’m on my feet 19 hours a day lol
Michael Hamm
2020-09-29 14:34:16 +0000 UTCOk! Vote noted!! Thank you
Michael Hamm
2020-09-29 14:31:48 +0000 UTCYou’ve already started by doing 4hour walks everyday lol
Michael Hamm
2020-09-29 14:31:34 +0000 UTCWe can do this together!
Michael Hamm
2020-09-29 14:30:58 +0000 UTCIt’s as much for everyone as it is for me. To keep me motivated and away from yo-yo dieting.
Michael Hamm
2020-09-29 14:30:43 +0000 UTCYeah I might focus on the healthy eating cause that’s the hardest part for me too
Michael Hamm
2020-09-29 14:30:06 +0000 UTCI was doing a lot from home but for me I’ve been lucky that where I live we have no cases and the gyms are open
Michael Hamm
2020-09-29 14:29:34 +0000 UTCBut you know i hate sweating :((((((
Michael Hamm
2020-09-29 14:28:59 +0000 UTCThey are Made in the kitchen!
Michael Hamm
2020-09-29 14:28:36 +0000 UTCThat’s kind of what I was thinking. Even if you don’t like the message, you might still like the photo lol. I’ll do my best to make it for everyone though
Michael Hamm
2020-09-29 14:28:10 +0000 UTCNot that watching you work out like Dick Grayson in the Batcave would be a bad thing! But it wouldn't be fun if you weren't having fun doing it, too.
Christopher
2020-09-29 14:27:34 +0000 UTCThank you!
Michael Hamm
2020-09-29 14:27:29 +0000 UTCAnd so you shall!
Michael Hamm
2020-09-29 14:27:19 +0000 UTCI like the idea of exposing more illusions! That might be a great way of talking about fitness but staying body positive
Michael Hamm
2020-09-29 14:27:01 +0000 UTCI know but I really try not to have the “scroll past” mentality on patreon. On insta, sure. But here I try really hard to make content that everyone would like. I guess if nothing else the people not interested in fitness will like the pictures lol
Michael Hamm
2020-09-29 14:25:52 +0000 UTCIt will have to be past tense cause I’m in Canada and the gyms are back open!
Michael Hamm
2020-09-29 14:24:49 +0000 UTCWe both know I’ve never been comfortable a day in my life lol.
Michael Hamm
2020-09-29 14:24:16 +0000 UTCOh god, not skin care. My skin care is good lighting for photos lol
Michael Hamm
2020-09-29 14:23:50 +0000 UTCNever been much of an inspiration but I’ll try
Michael Hamm
2020-09-29 14:23:25 +0000 UTCEverything! ANYthing!! ALL THE THINGS!!! AND STUFF!!!!
Michael Hamm
2020-09-29 14:23:04 +0000 UTCAnd so you shall!
Michael Hamm
2020-09-29 14:21:53 +0000 UTCOr alienate everyone lol. We shall see
Michael Hamm
2020-09-29 14:21:39 +0000 UTCFitness Friday... you know me so well
Michael Hamm
2020-09-29 14:21:10 +0000 UTCHopefully they will like what I’ve got
Michael Hamm
2020-09-29 14:20:47 +0000 UTCStep one, pick it up, put it down! NO NOT THE VODKA
Michael Hamm
2020-09-29 14:20:22 +0000 UTCBoth very hard things to do
Michael Hamm
2020-09-29 14:19:49 +0000 UTCNot true, but thank you lol
Michael Hamm
2020-09-29 14:19:31 +0000 UTCThat’s totally fair and respectable! I don’t tend to follow fitness people on IG because they are all the same
Michael Hamm
2020-09-29 14:19:15 +0000 UTCThank you!
Michael Hamm
2020-09-29 14:18:13 +0000 UTCI’ll do my best! Or at least 89% of my best
Michael Hamm
2020-09-29 14:18:01 +0000 UTCCongrats!!! That’s great to hear that you’ve started
Michael Hamm
2020-09-29 14:17:37 +0000 UTCGood idea! Maybe some like “easy tips and tricks”
Michael Hamm
2020-09-29 14:17:13 +0000 UTCI’ll do my best to give some good ish advice
Michael Hamm
2020-09-29 14:15:46 +0000 UTCI have no idea what I want to be lol. My mom keeps asking too
Michael Hamm
2020-09-29 14:15:18 +0000 UTCHahaha ok, fair, but we all have our insecurities. We don’t want to get into that game
Michael Hamm
2020-09-29 14:14:49 +0000 UTCOhhh this is good! Ok!
Michael Hamm
2020-09-29 14:13:55 +0000 UTCI know but I try to make sure my content is for everyone to enjoy. It’s hard sometimes and I know you can’t make everyone happy all the time
Michael Hamm
2020-09-29 14:13:31 +0000 UTCI walk for cardio and do weights for body!
Michael Hamm
2020-09-29 14:12:55 +0000 UTCI'm not particularly interested in your fitness plans, while I certainly appreciate their results. But clearly others are interested and if you did post about it, I would not be bothered by it.
David Pasteelnick
2020-09-29 13:46:18 +0000 UTCAhhh! Can we be Peloton friends?
Rob Cameron
2020-09-29 02:21:16 +0000 UTCI am slowly starting my own fitness journey. I've been eating better, with half my supper plate being vegetables. Weight has been coming off slow and steady and I want to weight train again. Your idea comes at the best time for me. Working on the road often, I invested in the OYO Novo portable gym on Kickstarter, and it should arrive in November and December. Please have one or more of your fitness videos be about exercising on the road, at a Con, away from your hometown. Cheers, Michael, and thanks!
John Dwyer
2020-09-28 23:55:59 +0000 UTCI vote yes! I’d love to hear what you have to share!
Adrian Carroll
2020-09-28 22:34:28 +0000 UTCdefinitely would be helpful and motivational... everything else I want to add to that list is too crass for print LOL. But yes.
JOHN ONEIL
2020-09-28 21:34:15 +0000 UTCI would enjoy it because it would help me with my own goals.
JohnMichael Schott
2020-09-28 21:09:36 +0000 UTCwhile I'm not into fitness myself part of the enjoyment of this is giving you spqce to share your passions... who knows maybe one of your fitness posts might give me my eureka moment to get fit myself..... ultimately you do honey and we'll cheer from the sidelines.
Gavin Lowe
2020-09-28 20:54:32 +0000 UTCI'm also trying to get back into healthier living, so a big YES, especially diet information, as well as work out and of course the less cloths you wear the better.
Dan Jeffrey
2020-09-28 17:28:52 +0000 UTCI'd be very interested to see how you stay in such great shape during the pandemic? Do you have any in-home training regiments that you can suggest?
AJ Real
2020-09-28 17:00:48 +0000 UTCYou know, honestly the answer is Yes! It’s a win win if you give us sweaty videos and we can pick up some tips from you. You know I’d like to be a bit fitter and healthier so yes, please!
Adam Jarvis
2020-09-28 15:57:53 +0000 UTCI would be interested in the various things you do for cardio. Those abs don't come from sitting on your very attractive ass. :)
Kent Babb
2020-09-28 13:48:10 +0000 UTCFitness still allows the thirsty to enjoy you so I don't think most will mind. As a person who is trying to live healthier, i think it would be nice to get some diet and exercise tips from someone who obviously knows how. ❤️
Nick
2020-09-28 10:51:36 +0000 UTCAbsolutely go for it. We all support you in any decisions you make 👌
Matthew Jones
2020-09-28 08:07:56 +0000 UTCI'd love to see that! x
Russell Davies
2020-09-28 07:22:09 +0000 UTCI say, yes, by all means, go for it. One of the reasons I love supporting you is you don't hold back that what you do is *work*. You've always shown that there is a lot of illusion involved in looking good, and your heartfelt approach to letting us see that yes, even you struggle with the same issues, has always been an encouragement for me. If you want to provide exercise tips, things you use when you feel like you're getting off track, or just plain 'happy' thoughts that help you on the way, I'd absolutely be interested. Do what you love. We encourage you.
Paranormal
2020-09-28 05:33:41 +0000 UTCGo for it! Why not? As another commenter already mentioned, those who don’t care for it can just scroll past it. Not a big deal, and the rest of us would enjoy it!
Alex ♂
2020-09-28 04:36:45 +0000 UTCI am saying yes. As someone who needs help and motivation for what to do for exercise, I’d like to know what you’re doing for exercise, how often you exercise, and what you’re doing differently in these times.
Christian Juel
2020-09-28 04:32:45 +0000 UTCWhatever you feel comfortable doing I suppose. I remember you saying in your home workout vid post that you felt very awkward doing it, i think cuz your roommate was home? You'd obviously be a fountain of knowledge of health tips and tricks, but maybe to add some fun we could also set you little challenges, like seeing if you can do a handstand-push-up, or yoga poses, or a backflip? Haha
Matt Gibson
2020-09-28 04:22:18 +0000 UTCWhatever you're into dude! But fitness and nutrition, skin care, whatever you do to look and feel your best I'm sure would be helpful for some of us!
Ben Mautner
2020-09-28 03:15:21 +0000 UTCAnything that could inspire us is good!
Luis
2020-09-28 03:09:21 +0000 UTCRandom is good, write/post/share whatever you're in the mood to talk about that day. New toys, cosplay builds, fitness tips that worked for you, anything, everything. 😊
ShaunTheShooter
2020-09-28 03:03:27 +0000 UTCYes, honestly. I’d love to learn more about your fitness regimen and, even more so, about your diet.
Matthew Davis
2020-09-28 02:47:39 +0000 UTCYes it’s great. I’m sure you have awesome tips that can help us all out
Ryan Mendez
2020-09-28 02:35:18 +0000 UTCI think there are plenty of folks who could get something out of it. Even if you just start with a Fitness Friday, and more, if necessary. You do you, boo
K David Cochran
2020-09-28 02:23:12 +0000 UTCFor sure!
Peter
2020-09-28 02:20:21 +0000 UTCI don’t think it’s a waste of space if some people want to know to know how to get fit just like you did when you were starting cosplay.
Niko Lopez
2020-09-28 02:18:18 +0000 UTCSure! It'll give me more ideas to consider too!!
Stasi Cavadias
2020-09-28 02:14:13 +0000 UTCYes please! Diet and exercise
Jade Velazquez
2020-09-28 02:08:17 +0000 UTCDo whatever you want! We'll follow.
Mario Grilli
2020-09-28 02:07:24 +0000 UTCUmm... actually not that keen. The internet is already flooded with fitness material. I enjoy seeing the results of your fitness regime, of course, but really am a follower for your creativity and coswork
Joseph Petersen
2020-09-28 02:06:19 +0000 UTCI enjoy fitness content just as a way to change up my own routines, so yes.
Anthony
2020-09-28 02:03:19 +0000 UTCYes pls. My husband and I are working on these same changes, it helps to hear other people going through it.
Jacob Dreiling
2020-09-28 01:58:39 +0000 UTCI’m on a fitness journey too, it’s be good to see what your journey looks like :)
Richie Jatmatama
2020-09-28 01:50:38 +0000 UTCI think that this is a platform for you to share all the aspects of your life. And I’d love to know what positive changes you implement for your diet. It might inspire me to make those changes too
David
2020-09-28 01:48:32 +0000 UTCI've been curious what your fitness and diet routines are like. I'm always up for hearing about what works for others to help me add some diversity into my own training and diet routines.
Carl Perry
2020-09-28 01:42:03 +0000 UTCMichael, are you thinking of becoming a geeky lifestyle brand? Go for it especially right now when so many of us are largely staying home and realizing that our fitness regimen needs to change with the Covid reality. :)
Jp
2020-09-28 01:40:40 +0000 UTCIn what universe are you not already intimidatingly fit?!
Christopher
2020-09-28 01:38:48 +0000 UTCI’d be down to hear what your “non diet” changes are. Also wouldn’t mind finding out what some of your preferred methods for certain outcomes are.
Brian
2020-09-28 01:38:25 +0000 UTCMy thoughts on it, are why not share it? Those that are interested in it can use it for what its worth, and those who aren't can keep scrolling.
Guy Baker
2020-09-28 01:38:24 +0000 UTCWhat workout exercises and routines you like doing?
Kyle
