For skeptics of the fitness industry who want to work smarter and more efficiently to build muscle and lose fat. Wits & Weights cuts through the noise and deconstructs health and fitness with an engineering mindset to help you develop a strong, lean physique without wasting time. Nutrition coach Philip Pape explores EFFICIENT strength training, nutrition, and lifestyle strategies to optimize your body composition. Simple, science-based, and sustainable info from an engineer turned lifter (that's why they call him the Physique Engineer). From restrictive fad diets to ineffective workouts and hyped-up supplements, there's no shortage of confusing information out there. Getting in the best shape of your life doesn't have to be complicated or time-consuming. By using your WITS (mindset and systems!) and lifting WEIGHTS (efficiently!), you can build muscle, lose stubborn fat, and achieve and maintain your dream physique. We bring you smart and efficient strategies for movement, metabolism, muscle, and mindset. You'll learn: - Why fat loss is more important than weight loss for health and physique - Why all the macros (protein, fats, and yes even carbs) are critical to body composition - Why you don't need to spend more than 3 hours in the gym each week to get incredible results - Why muscle (not weight loss) is the key to medicine, obesity, and longevity - Why age and hormones (even in menopause) don't matter with the right lifestyle - How the "hidden" psychology of your mind can unlock more personal (and physical) growth than you ever thought possible, and how to tap into that mindset If you're ready to separate fact from fiction, learn what actually works, and put in the intelligent work, hit that "follow" button and let's engineer your best physique ever!

Visit: www.rulesforelectricians.com Welcome to "Stuff Electrician's Should Know" my name is Jon Workman, your host, and welcome back to another episode of SESK. Before we get started I just want to tell you about "Rules For Electricians", a new book that I put together that I'm excited get into your hands. It's 100 rules for electricians that can help a help you in your daily activities, help you in your job, basically just some the written rules, some of the unwritten rules that are that are now written that are there to help you. Go to www.rulesforelectricians.com and you can get your calloused, work soil hands on your very own copy. Let's get in today's topic "3 myths about project management" On the last episode of SESK, you remember we got into project management a little bit, and this week I want talk about 3 myths concerning project management that sometimes the little guys allow to get in their way. So let's just jump into the first myth. The first myth about project management is that you have to have a big company for project management to even be necessary, and that is great lie. Even if you are a one man band learning how to manage a project properly is going to absolutely change your business. Company size doesn't really matter. There's always a customer and end user and you've got to get the job done. You've gotta get done what they need done to make them happy for you to get a pay check. It really doesn't matter even if it's simply changing out receptacles in an old house, you still want to do the best job you can for your customer, and that way you'll have a better chance of having them be repeat customers and hopefully lifelong customers. You know, there might be a little bit of an advantage to being a smaller guy actually, you're more versatile, you can do a lot more things, but you still need to operate by sound principles and know how to to manage the jobs that you do get. The second myth is that you have to have a big job to need management. Job size is really just an issue of relativity. You know it's all relative. Everything's just relative. If you're a one man show then a $10000 job might be a big job to you. If you're a multimillion dollar contracting company your $10000 job may not even be worth looking at for you. But it's all it's all relative. But every job basically has the same framework. The four B's. You're bidding, you're buying, you're building, and you're billing. You're doing these four things no matter what size the job is. So you you just need to make sure that you know how to do these things. You still have to be efficient in all the things that you do. The the small jobs especially, for smaller contractors, are just as important as a big jobs. Myth number three. We've talked about not needing to be a big company, or that it doesn't have to be a big job, and the last thing is that the job doesn't have to be worth a lot of money to to warrant knowing how to manage project. The money amount doesn't matter. It goes back to efficiency. The more efficient you are the more money you can make. The biggest thing about the dollar amount is that on the smaller jobs the little mistakes hurt more than on the bigger jobs. So that is one more piece of motivation for you to to learn how to manage a project. If you are on a smaller job and start making a bunch of small mistakes it's going to end up costing you a bigger portion of the pie. Thanks again for listening to this episode of "Stuff Electricians Should Know". Once again, just reminder head over to www.rulesforelectricians.com to get your hands on a copy of my new book "Rules For Electricians" Volume one. Thanks again for tuning in. Hopefully you are having a great week glad to be back with you this week and until next time I'm Jon Workman, Stay Grounded.…

Stuff Electricians Should Know!

You won't want to miss the July Issue of SESK-U! Visit www.sesk-u.com to become a member! So here are 3 things that will help you know when you can use a VFD. 1- The need to reduce energy consumption and energy costs. I'm not going to get deep into this one now because that is going to be the subject of next weeks episode. But know for now that that is a major reason to use a VFD. 2 - Greater production through efficiency and better process control. hey your motors are most efficient, you'll have less mistakes and production levels will increase. This typically generates more revenue, or cuts costs. You might not completely get this, but think about a conveyor belt. If it's jerky on starts and stops it could really mess things up. 3- Lastly, VFD's will extend equipment life and cut down on maintenance. No one likes to have to replace equipment on a regular basis or have to spend time or money having equipment down for repair. Using VFD's helps equipment last longer and reduces downtime because the VFD will keep the motor running at it's optimal speed. One of the biggest benefits of having VFDs optimally control the motor’s frequency and voltage is that the VFD will offer better protection from issues like electro thermal overloads, it gives phase protection, prevents under voltage and overvoltage, etc..…

Visit SESK-U.com to learn more about SESK University! Okay, so in the last episode I introduced you briefly to VFD's, and kind of discuss what they did. So this week, why don't we dive into how a VFD actually works. So let's start talking about the motor that you're going to be controlling for, for just a second. You know the motors that you're going to control with the VFD are three phase. You're not going to use a VFD to control a single phase motor. Now, a lot of these motors are designed to be operated and run at a fairly consistent speed. You're not going to have a lot of ups and a lot of downs, but the motors are going to be bogged down a lot with different loads. You might have a conveyor that's got a really light load to begin with and it can kind of gets bogged down during the day. So a VFD analyzes load variations and then it increases or decreases the motor speed automatically to kind of compensate for, for what's happening.…

Visit www.sesk-u.com to learn more about SESK University! So to put a simply a VFD is a type of motor controller that drives a three phase electric motor, and it can control the motor by varying, not only the frequency but the voltage that's being supplied to the electric motor. Okay? So one of the coolest things about VFD's is that their automatic. You don't have to sit there and monkey around with them and adjust them when you need certain things to happen, they sense the load requirements and then they increase or decrease the motor speed accordingly. So this helps out in a couple of different ways. It helps reduce operating temperature of the equipment. It also helps reduce stress on the mechanical components.…

To get Codey visit: www.codey.app This is probably the advice that Apple should have given when it released the iPhone, or Tesla when it started selling cars. "Don't buy our product!" Neither of these Uber successful companies have yet to release a perfect, flawless product. How dare they?? iPhones are riddled with problems. Software crashes, hardware malfunctions, battery issues. Yet they keep building them for us to buy. Same with Tesla. Doors and hoods won't open, production issues, crashes... I'm sure the list could go on. But both companies keep building and selling their products. They dare to keep selling products because they are innovators and they want to provide the consumer with the best that they have, even though the best that they have isn't perfect... and it never will be. There will always be software and car crashes. There will always be hardware problems, there will always be the human element that comes along with innovation. So where am I going with this? Let me tell you. This month has been full of information being thrown your way. mostly about what Codey can do to this point.

You want to pay a lot more later on when you finally decide to buy it. Do buy codey if: You want a tool that will help you on your path to greatness You want a tool that will help you become more efficient and knowledgeable You want help finding answers to code and other types of electrical questions (database is growing everyday) You want to invest in the beta version now at a lower price (this will help us hire more developers to speed up the process) and keep this low price unless you cancel the service You want to save countless hours of research to questions that you need the answers to. Codey is no different that the coolest products that you own. This is just the first version, just like they had a first version. It will have bugs. It won't have all the answers.
