I always think of ways to promote steem. I have found out that One of the ways to promote anything is not just by words of mouth. Our projects and our actions can speak louder than words.

When I began my fitness journey and then as a coach, I thought of using it to promote steem. And I came up with #steemfit. I have always have the promotion of steem in my mind.

Thankfully, today, my fitness group is bobbling with steemians both old and new. You won't believe it. Even I didn't envision that the growth will be this fast.

Today, I woke up with the idea that our Wednesday football can be more colourful if I should go out with my Steemit jersey. This jersey has been with me for 3 years now. The essence was for playing soccer by steemians in my city of residence.

And now, I have another opportunity to use those jersey.

Waking up, I boiled water for taking my shower, then arranged the Steemit jersey. I only saw the blue colour while the yellow colour weren't complete. I didn't have much time to go in search for those jerseys. I just arranged the blue, did my morning worship and when it was 6am, I was set to leave the house. My kids joined me as they were already dressed up.

On getting to the playground, I saw one of us. She was already there before me. In fact, since this week, she has always come first. Well, her lounge close to the playground. She was still the one that joined Steemit and wrote her introduction post today. She asked to join after she heard us talk so much about Steemit and since we are many that are steemians, our voices can easily entice someone.

She signed up on Monday but couldn't conclude her introduction post then. But today, she was able to complete that after our workout for the day and football, we had to take pictures with her and assisted her to post it as you can see her below

training session

My kids assisted me to get our equipments out from where we used to keep them. Then, I set the stage for our training and started the music.

I started with a little aerobics to warm the body. I also used that opportunity to wait for others. Members started coming in numbers and as they come, they joined the training. After 20min of that aerobics, I gave out the programs for the day. We are training on butts and Abs this week and as such, the programs were tailored towards achieving that.

I gave out 5 different programs and divided the members is 3s. Each group took turns to go round all the 5 different programs. We had the seat ups which was to be done 20 reps in 4 rounds, then the planks which was up and down planks, 10 reps for 4 rounds, then the sqats with weigh is to be done 20 reps in 4 rounds, then the mountain climber, 20 reps in 4 rounds, and lastly, the dumbbell seat which one has to lift the dumbbell up while seating down and bring it down to touch the toes while curving the stomach. It was done 20 reps in 4 rounds too.

Everyone did their best including the 4 new members that we have this week.

Then, we proceeded for the football session.

Soccer ⚽ ⚽ ⚽ wednesday

I already shared the announcement in our group in the morning using this image below that I designed

@fifapresido quickly arranged the field and the mini goal post. Then the members were paired accordingly. I was in the same team with alli001 @kidi40 and other members. While fifapresido was with our chairman and other members. It was a mixed game of male and female. My team wore the blue jersey because one of us was already wearing blue.

We took group pictures as a team and the other team did the same. @bossj23 was doubling as our media personnel and as our referee. He really did great!

The game was divided into first and second half for 20min each even though it was more than that.

During the first half, my team conceded a goal but we replied it during the second half. And that was how we ended draw (1:1). But it was really fun.

Pictures of the game are here below

After we were done, I and others remained while some left. We were practically waiting for the newbie to finish up so that we can take pictures with her.

We get the playground by 12noon. You can imagine that.

at home

We branched in a shop for my kids to buy noodles. That's what they said they wanted to eat that afternoon. Remember that the food will double as breakfast and lunch. They also bought yogurt to add up. We got to the house and they prepared their food and enjoyed. They bought juice for me which I also also took. But I had to wash off my clothes before seating down to eat.

I usually wash as soon as I get home before any other thing.

So, I washed my workout outfit as well as our jersey that we played with

Then, I already had porridge beans that I prepared at home. I reached out to my garden for utazi and scent leaves to garnish the beans. I warmed the beans, washed my leaves and cut. Then after scooping, I garnished it as you can see in the picture below

Then, I rested by taking my nap. I woke up late, to take in my clothes, then arrange for dinner and ate before retiring for the day. But I had to finish this post. After all, I slept in the afternoon, so it will be hard to sleep again.

That was it on my diary game. Hope it was fun filled?

Most of the pictures were taken by bossj23 l, alli001 and some other members. I also took some.

It is good night to everyone because it is 22.58 .already
