Saving the Icon To Your Mobile Desktop

Saving the icon to your mobile desktop is easy. Just visit www.Dansplan.com from your phone or tablet. When you do, a bubble will appear at the bottom to prompt you to save the icon. When you log in, check the box that says “Remember Me.” Now, when you click on the icon bookmark, it takes you to your Dashboard without needing to log in.

How I Use It

I have this icon on my first screen for both my iphone and my ipad. Seeing the icon serves as atrigger to remind me to check the daily InTUNE training workout each morning. It’s one of the first things I do when I wake up. Then, it’s easy to keep the daily workout top-of-mind across the day.

As the day progresses, I look for opportunities to burst of activity here and there. Personally, my goal is to do at least 5 sets a day, but I aim for 10. As I do exercise, I click on the icon to change my totals in the Exercise Tracker as the day progresses.

Hope you find it useful like I do.

All my best,

Dan

Hi folks,

Recently, I had a presentation submission accepted by the 2013 Ancestral Healthy Symposium to be held in Atlanta this August. This will be the third annual meeting for this society. The first conference was held at UCLA and the second was hosted in  collaboration with the Harvard Food Law Society at the Harvard Law School. The first few conferences were excellent, with a focus on diet and exercise, but sleep was conspicuously absent from the program. My 40 minute presentation for this August will be entitled “Modern Pressures, Poor Sleep: How Sleep Loss Changes How We Live.” Sleep is absolutely critical to good health and I’m glad that it was valued by the committee this year.

I’ll be talking about how the modern world encourages sleep insufficiency, ramifications of sleep loss and mistimed sleep, and I’ll propose several potential solutions to help anyone to get sufficient sleep consistently. But sleep is just one side of the coin, the other side is vigilant wake performance during the day and evening: the period of time when people experience the benefits of good sleep. One of the most fascinating findings from research on sleep loss show that it’s difficult for humans to fully perceive the impairments from insufficient sleep. Sure, it’s normal to feel a sleepy when we don’t get enough sleep but we can also accommodate to the feeling so that this new condition becomes normal. Meanwhile, with insufficient sleep, performance impairments can accumulate and lead to qualitatively and quantitatively different mental and physical performance outputs from an individual. In other words, it’s easy for us to overestimate our ability to performance complicated tasks and to underestimate the objective impairment from sleep loss. However, there are ways to understand if you’re getting enough sleep on a regular basis and I’ll be cover those in the talk. Again, this conference is excellent and I encourage you to consider attending since there are a many practical learnings you can attain and apply to your own life.

Press Release – Monday, April 1^st, 2013

By Mike Maser

Handsome, evil, billionaire.

The Board of Directors for health-technology start-up “Dan’s Plan” announced a hostile takeover by wealthy entrepreneur, David Leibsohn. Very little information is publicly available on this mysterious billionaire, however, Techcrunch was able to locate the personal Pinterest account for Leibsohn which, disappointingly, reveals very little information about his interests. This takeover occurred late Friday evening when current CEO Dan Pardi was attending the Paleo FX conference in Austin, Texas. In an interview early Monday morning, Pardi stated:

Temporarily Stewart P. Formerly Dan Pardi

“I just didn’t see this coming. I immediately sought council but my lawyers can no longer represent me. Leibsohn purchased their firms the same day of the takeover as a strategic move to prevent a lengthy legal battle.” Mr. Pardi also stated, “Leibsohn now has rights to my full name, too. I can no longer use ‘Dan Pardi’ for legal identification.  This is all very disorienting.  I’m temporarily going by the name ‘Steward P,’ but that just doesn’t feel right.”

When asked what interested him to make such a bold and aggressive decisions, Leibsohn stated “I’m still not certain what Dan’s Plan does but I had a very large tax return this year so I just didn’t want to let that cash sit in my bank. After the paper work is complete, I’ll visit the site and see what I’ve purchased. I like owning stuff.”

CEO and President, as of today.

The incumbent Board of Directors is scrambling to understand what ramifications this will have for them. The very first move for current COO, Erik Svenson, was to order new business cards from Moo.com. He stated “I’ve been a part of deals like this hundreds of times during my days as an investment banker. Leibsohn needs to keep a few people around who have significant institutional knowledge of the former entity. I’ve learned that this a great opportunity to create whatever story you want for the new owners. This is why my new business cards say CEO and President.”

Dan’s Plan had recently released a corporate wellness program, and beta version of a novel weight loss program (the ‘Ideal Weight Program‘) that was designed in collaboration with researcher

Aspiring Reinsurance Agent

Stephan Guyenet, PhD., of the University of Washington. In a brief phone interview, Dr. Guyenet stated “my inside sources have told me Leibsohn is interested to turn the new company into a reinsurance agency for those with underwater mortgages – this is actually something I’ve wanted to do since I was a kid. I couldn’t be happier. Besides, Dave’s Plan is 1000x better than Dan’s Plan – it just works!”

Loves business that start with "D"

Techcrunch pursued outside commentary to shed light on this emotionally complex business situation from Dr. Steph Habif, member of the ‘Stanford d-School, a department dedicated to ethnographically chronicling companies that start with the letter ‘D (and sometimes y).’ Habif said “I was very excited to see this case cross my desk. It’s a once in a lifetime opportunity to see the hostile takeover of one ‘D’ company by another. This will undoubtedly become a cases study we will discuss across the ages.”
