There is silicone spray for treadmills and liquid, while wax lubricants can be granular, powder, or solid. The two types of lubricants are silicon and wax, which may come in various forms. If you don't have one and are unsure of the process, you can always call a professional to guide you through the process. Follow the treadmill's manual to understand how to apply the lubricant. You can easily learn how to oil a treadmill by looking at your user's manual. Let it run for five minutes at one mph speed to spread the lubricant to the motor, deck surface, and center.īefore lubricating the treadmill, ensure that it's unplugged from the power source. If you unscrewed the bolts or screws, ensure that you tighten them to make the treadmill is secure. What you should note is that the application must be consistent. But it might help to have a screwdriver if you need to reach the spaces between the deck and the belt. In most instances, lubricating a treadmill machine is a process that doesn't require tools. If the machine has multiple users, like in the case of a gym, you might have to lubricate it often. Others train regularly by running at higher speeds, so it's advisable to lubricate at least once every six months. Some people use their treadmill sparingly for walks and jogs hence application can be only once a year. However, the factors that determine how often you should service your treadmill include model, size, type, and the quality of both deck and belt. The reason is that there are many different brands in the market. No rule governs the amount or frequency you should lubricate your treadmill belt. However, a colorless lubricant is advised to prevent stains in an accidental spill. Another reason for an applicator is to avoid messing up during the application process. ApplicatorĪn applicator helps with convenience, which saves you the trouble of loosening the treadmill belt or bolts each time you want to make service maintenance. The best options should include colorless and odorless, which is the case for most oils in the market. Unlike oil, silicon lasts longer and doesn't cause premature breakdowns because there are no impurities or other distillates.īesides personal safety, treadmill lubricants should also be environmentally safe. The best treadmill lubricant is 100% silicon, as recommended by manufacturers. But remember, you don't have to apply more lubricant than stated (an ounce is sufficient).Īlso, treadmill lubricants have no stated shelf life, and it's wrong to assume that buying a giant/jug will serve you better for many years. The machine needs several applications of treadmill lubricant as manufacturers advocate that you schedule maintenance every 40 hours or three months after use.Ī lubricant that can last you up to a year sounds like a viable option to save costs, which means that you should go for bigger bottles or three-pack bottles. The size of the lubricant bottle determines the cost that you will spend in a year. These are the features that determine the best treadmill lubricant to help you decide. ![]() There are many treadmill lubricants, but not all are suitable for your treadmill.

![]() For example, lifting heavy weights for an hour often gave me a lower score than doing yard work for 20 minutes and it was by a LOT. One thing to note though, if you're like me and are focused on strength training over cardiovascular training like cross fit, the band will be a bit deflating because your "Whoop score" only measures cardiovascular strain and not muscle strain. There are key reasons for Amazon’s failure in this space and Whoop’s continued growth through enterprise partnerships, innovation, and overall awareness. The ability to create your own communities with your friends and family is also great. Amazon faced significant challenges, ultimately losing to Whoop. But it also boasts a range of impressive features that make it a top contender in the fitness tracking market. The cross fit community has adopted the Whoop strap and they fuel the community aspect tremendously. If you’re looking for an alternative to the Amazon Halo band, the Whoop Strap 4.0 is definitely worth considering Not only does it offer a sleek and stylish design. Without the monthly subscription, it’ll count your steps, check on your heart rate, and tell you how much sleep you got, but it won’t do basic things, like keep track of your workouts, your activity intensity, or track of your sleep cycles. Unlike the Halo, the WHOOP Strap requires a WHOOP membership, which, at the lowest end, costs 30 monthly for a 6-month membership or 180 total (band included). ![]() The community winner here is by far the Whoop Strap and it's not even close. Halo is 4/month to get access to basic fitness and sleep tracking stats. The WHOOP Strap 3 is another screen-less fitness tracker with a minimalist bent but a bigger buy-in and emphasis on performance. Oura has no community involvement and the Halo community is still growing. The activity zone registers the physical activity, it recommends at least 150 points a week ( I did it in one day) as minimum fitness level and 300 points optimal level, you can go above 300 if you want to. Whoop's ability to create groups that show your daily scores with others add an awesome level of accountability and camaraderie that I believe dramatically increase the chances of you really pushing yourself. The Halo does not have a recovery zone but has the Avtivity zone (strain equivalent )and sleep zone. The Whoop community is by far the most engaged one I've been a part of. ![]() Stallings's Funk the Erotic: Transaesthetics and Black Sexual Cultures explores these multiple meanings of "funk" as a way to theorize sexuality, culture, and western hegemony within the many locations of "funk": "street parties, drama/theater, strippers and strip clubs, pornography, and self-published fiction." Characteristics Rhythm and tempo The rhythm section of a funk band-the electric bass, drums, electric guitar and keyboards-is the heartbeat of the funk sound. Recent scholarship in black studies has taken the term "funk" in its many iterations to consider the range of black movement and culture. The meaning of "funk" continues to captivate the genre of black music, feeling, and knowledge. The music was identified as slow, sexy, loose, riff-oriented and danceable. This early form of the music set the pattern for later musicians. ![]() ![]() According to one source, New Orleans-born drummer Earl Palmer "was the first to use the word 'funky' to explain to other musicians that their music should be made more syncopated and danceable." The style later evolved into a rather hard-driving, insistent rhythm, implying a more carnal quality. As late as the 1950s and early 1960s, when "funk" and "funky" were used increasingly in the context of jazz music, the terms still were considered indelicate and inappropriate for use in polite company. Marquis, either "comical and light" or "crude and downright obscene" but, in one way or another, referring to the sweaty atmosphere at dances where Bolden's band played. The first example is an unrecorded number by Buddy Bolden, remembered as either " Funky Butt" or "Buddy Bolden's Blues" with improvised lyrics that were, according to Donald M. In early jam sessions, musicians would encourage one another to " get down" by telling one another, "Now, put some stank on it!" At least as early as 1907, jazz songs carried titles such as Funky. Even though in white culture, the term "funk" can have negative connotations of odor or being in a bad mood ("in a funk"), in African communities, the term "funk", while still linked to body odor, had the positive sense that a musician's hard-working, honest effort led to sweat, and from their "physical exertion" came an "exquisite" and "superlative" performance. In 1784 "funky" meaning "musty" was first documented, which, in turn, led to a sense of "earthy" that was taken up around 1900 in early jazz slang for something "deeply or strongly felt". It is originally derived from Latin "fumigare" (which means "to smoke") via Old French "fungiere" and, in this sense, it was first documented in English in 1620. The word funk initially referred (and still refers) to a strong odor. Look up funk in Wiktionary, the free dictionary. Funk samples and breakbeats have been used extensively in hip hop and electronic dance music. ![]() It is also the main influence of Washington go-go, a funk subgenre. Express, Shalamar, One Way, Lakeside, Dazz Band, The Gap Band, Slave, Aurra, Roger Troutman & Zapp, Con Funk Shun, Cameo, Bar-Kays and Chic began adopting and developing Brown's innovations during the 1970s and the 1980s.įunk derivatives include avant-funk, an avant-garde strain of funk boogie, a hybrid of electronic music and funk funk metal G-funk, a mix of gangsta rap and psychedelic funk Timba, a form of funky Cuban dance music and funk jam. Other musical groups, including Kool and the Gang, Parliament-Funkadelic, Ohio Players, Fatback Band, Jimmy Castor Bunch, Earth, Wind & Fire, B.T. It uses the same richly colored extended chords found in bebop jazz, such as minor chords with added sevenths and elevenths, and dominant seventh chords with altered ninths and thirteenths.įunk originated in the mid-1960s, with James Brown's development of a signature groove that emphasized the downbeat-with a heavy emphasis on the first beat of every measure ("The One"), and the application of swung 16th notes and syncopation on all basslines, drum patterns, and guitar riffs -and rock and psychedelia-influenced musicians Sly and the Family Stone and Jimi Hendrix, fostering improvisation in funk. Funk typically consists of a complex percussive groove with rhythm instruments playing interlocking grooves that create a "hypnotic" and "danceable" feel. It deemphasizes melody and chord progressions and focuses on a strong rhythmic groove of a bassline played by an electric bassist and a drum part played by a percussionist, often at slower tempos than other popular music. Funk is a music genre that originated in African American communities in the mid-1960s when musicians created a rhythmic, danceable new form of music through a mixture of various music genres that were popular among African-Americans in the mid-20th century. ![]() ![]() ![]() Making the DiceĬut a piece of 4×4 to a cube, 3 1/2″ x 3 1/2″ x 3 1/2″. After the glue has dried, sand the carrying crate smooth, especially the top/bottom where the jumbo jenga will be stacked to play the game. If you want to add handles, add one to each side. Attach another ‘top/bottom’ board right by the other ‘top/bottom’ board and secure it to the ‘short side’ board with 1 1/4″ screws.Īttach the last ‘long side’ board with wood glue and 1 1/4″ screws to the ‘short side’ and ‘top/bottom’ boards. Use 1 1/4″ minimum to secure a ‘top/bottom’ board to the ‘long side’ board as shown.Īdd a bead of wood glue to 2 sides of the ‘short side’ boards and attach it to the ‘long side’ and ‘top/bottom’ boards with 1 1/4″ screws. The holes should be about 3/8″ away from the side and evenly spaced.Īdd a bead of wood glue along one of the sides of a ‘long side’ board. Use a countersink bit (or a regular drill bit about the size of the screw shank) and drill holes for the screws as shown in the sketch. One set of 9 blocks I left natural wood.Ĭut the 4 pieces of 1×8 to be 19 3/4″ long. I had my helpers paint 9 jumbo jenga blocks in each color. (If you leave them natural wood you won’t have this issue.) You can coat them with a clear coat or wait until the paint has fully cured. So the blocks want to stick to each other. One issue with latex is that it dries in a day, but doesn’t cure for a few weeks. I used latex paint (ultra pure white, the real teal, pimento, paradise sky and cherries jubile). Paint or stain the jumbo jenga blocks if desired. ![]() I used a belt sander for this part to make it faster, a regular hand sander will work too. (Sometimes those kids toys can be useful :-) ). I used a miter saw and set up a stop block on the left side so I didn’t have to measure every piece.Ĭut 54 jumbo jenga pieces. 1 – 3 1/2″ x 3 1/2″ x 3 1/2″ from a 4×4 postĬut the 2×3 boards into 7 1/2″ long pieces, you should be able to get 12 – 7 1/2″ pieces from each 2×3 board.54 – 1 1/2″ x 2 1/2″ x 7 1/2″ jenga block pieces cut from the 2×3 boards.2 – drawer handles – optional for carrying crate.wood glue – optional for carrying crate.26 – 1 1/4″ wood screws – optional for carrying crate.scrap piece of 4″ x 4″ post – optional dice (actually measure 3 1/2″ x 3 1/2″).1 – 1″ x 8″ x 10′ board – optional carrying crate (actually measure 3/4″ x 7 1/4″ x 10′).How to Make a DIY Jumbo Jenga Yard Game Materials I also made a carrying crate that doubles as the Jumbo Jenga stand, it has enough room for the 54 jumbo jenga pieces and dice. A ‘2×3’ board that you buy is actually 1.5 inches thick, 2.5 inches wide and we can cut them 7.5 inches long…perfect! The traditional Jenga pieces are 1.5 cm thick, 2.5 cm wide and 7.5 cm long, making the jumbo jenga pieces couldn’t be simpler using 2×3 boards. You can totally play the traditional way too. They will roll and whatever color it lands on, they have to move a block of that color. Each side of the dice (die) is a different color and there is a corresponding set of blocks in each color. The roll ‘n go version puts a fun twist on the game, and I kept it simple for my young kids. I thought it would be fun to make a giant sized version for the yard with a ‘throw ‘n go’ option (I’m calling it Roll ‘n Go). Hi, I’m Amy and I love to build things and share plans at Hertoolbelt! My kids love to play the traditional Jenga. This beautiful new resort blends current architectural designs with modern. ![]() Rush Creek Lodge is a brand new resort development (the first new resort lodging option to be built in this area in more than 25 years). Because I5 is the major traffic artery in the state there are rarely traffic obstacles along that route. Welcome to Rush Creek Lodge, Yosemite's newest lodging facility located at the western doorstep to the park along scenic highway 120. Before driving you can check the Caltrans website to see if there are any traffic impediments in your route. I5 is the major interstate freeway for north south traffic. Rush Creek Lodge, 1.7 miles from Big Oak Flat Entrance, offers deluxe Lodge Rooms and Suites in the Main Lodge, or Hillside Yosemite Villas located on their 20-acre property. ![]() If you end up driving, I would suggest connecting to Interstate 5 even though US 99 is the closest highway. So the time lost traveling will be about the same. You would fly into Orange County Airport. Halfway Point Between San Francisco, CA and Mill Creek, CA. However, when flying you end up spending 3 hours at the airport. If your final destination is Disneyland you should recognize that it can take you three hours by car to get from the northern part of LA to Disneyland if you’re driving in what we call rush hour which is 7-10 am and 4-7 pm. It also depends where you are going in LA. Whether you drive or fly is really dependent upon your priorities. It takes about 3 hours to get SFO and about 7 hours to get to the northern part of LA from Yosemite. ![]() Although Yosemite is south of San Francisco it is the most eastern part of the State.
