1
00:00:21,960 --> 00:00:23,440
You seem like a fascinating 
character. 

2
00:00:24,280 --> 00:00:26,880
Who is BJ stagnant? 
I'm just a guy. 

3
00:00:27,880 --> 00:00:30,880
I'm just a guy, just an American
that moved here, British citizen

4
00:00:30,880 --> 00:00:34,640
now and came over here to plant 
churches, found what I consider 

5
00:00:34,640 --> 00:00:37,480
to be the greatest gym in the 
world and six months after 

6
00:00:37,480 --> 00:00:41,520
moving here, just never left. 
And that's kind of who I am at 

7
00:00:41,520 --> 00:00:43,160
the at the way. 
I'm a pastor, I'm a father, I'm 

8
00:00:43,160 --> 00:00:47,560
a husband, I'm a coach. 
I'm APT but just want to make a 

9
00:00:47,560 --> 00:00:49,280
difference. 
That's all that is with me. 

10
00:00:49,280 --> 00:00:51,280
Just putting it all together and
try to make a difference in this

11
00:00:51,280 --> 00:00:53,400
world. 
Yeah, that's what that's what 

12
00:00:53,400 --> 00:00:56,080
fascinated me about you is you 
are putting it these things 

13
00:00:56,080 --> 00:00:57,240
together. 
You're sort of putting that 

14
00:00:57,240 --> 00:01:01,360
pasta side with the fitness and 
coaching side and you're 

15
00:01:01,360 --> 00:01:04,080
bringing it together. 
Is it called the ministry or 

16
00:01:04,080 --> 00:01:05,080
something like that with the 
fitness? 

17
00:01:05,160 --> 00:01:07,200
But what's it called? 
So the gym ministry is called 

18
00:01:07,200 --> 00:01:09,600
Faith RX. 
It's it's, of course, it's 

19
00:01:09,600 --> 00:01:11,960
coming off. 
It's an old CrossFit ministry 

20
00:01:11,960 --> 00:01:13,960
that was connected. 
Becky Cosmo is the one that 

21
00:01:13,960 --> 00:01:16,080
started it, her and another 
fellow and it kind of connected.

22
00:01:16,400 --> 00:01:18,160
The goal is to reach CrossFit 
athletes. 

23
00:01:18,160 --> 00:01:21,360
And as you know, you go back to 
CrossFit RX, which is means 

24
00:01:21,360 --> 00:01:23,400
prescription. 
It comes from the Latin as 

25
00:01:23,400 --> 00:01:25,960
written. 
And so when you see the RX on 

26
00:01:25,960 --> 00:01:27,680
the workout or you scaled the 
workout. 

27
00:01:27,680 --> 00:01:30,360
So RX is like what the workout, 
the way it's written, you 

28
00:01:30,360 --> 00:01:32,400
completed it you finished it, 
you ticked the box. 

29
00:01:32,840 --> 00:01:35,600
So when they started it faith. 
So we look at what faith is the 

30
00:01:35,600 --> 00:01:37,800
substance of things hoped for 
the others of things not seen. 

31
00:01:37,800 --> 00:01:41,680
Hebrews 11 and one are exed past
tense like it's been done and 

32
00:01:41,680 --> 00:01:44,120
dusted makes sense. 
So that's the that's what it's 

33
00:01:44,120 --> 00:01:46,800
called that's the ministerial 
side of the gym, the workout, 

34
00:01:46,800 --> 00:01:49,240
the training and this and that. 
Of course I pastored 2 churches 

35
00:01:49,240 --> 00:01:52,880
here, one in Cardiff and one up 
in the valleys and we live about

36
00:01:53,280 --> 00:01:55,840
midway in between closer. 
We live in Cardiff, Rader area 

37
00:01:55,840 --> 00:01:58,600
and PT in the gym overlook a lot
of things. 

38
00:01:58,600 --> 00:02:01,120
Just try to, you know, keep the 
gym up and running the way it is

39
00:02:01,120 --> 00:02:02,560
and way it should be. 
You know, Rob's done a 

40
00:02:02,560 --> 00:02:05,880
tremendous job there and that's 
up to us and the team to make 

41
00:02:05,880 --> 00:02:07,240
sure that thing keeps moving 
forward. 

42
00:02:07,480 --> 00:02:12,720
Yeah, Now a lot of people would 
think that fitness and sort of 

43
00:02:13,120 --> 00:02:15,800
like the church are on opposite 
ends of the spectrum. 

44
00:02:16,120 --> 00:02:18,280
Why are they wrong? 
Well, they're they're inherently

45
00:02:18,280 --> 00:02:19,680
wrong. 
And the problem is, is there's 

46
00:02:19,680 --> 00:02:22,840
many people over the past years,
that's exactly how they felt. 

47
00:02:22,840 --> 00:02:26,360
They felt as if all the ministry
in the gym can't go go together 

48
00:02:26,360 --> 00:02:27,680
and they could not be more 
wrong. 

49
00:02:27,680 --> 00:02:31,080
Matter of fact, Scripture has 
precluded that to show that like

50
00:02:31,080 --> 00:02:34,120
this body as a Christian, we 
know the Bible says what? 

51
00:02:34,120 --> 00:02:36,080
No, you're not that you, you're 
not your own. 

52
00:02:36,120 --> 00:02:37,800
You know, this body's been 
bought with the price. 

53
00:02:37,800 --> 00:02:40,760
OK, so if I was to give you 
something that's mine, say if I 

54
00:02:40,760 --> 00:02:43,680
was to give you my Yeti cup and 
here it is, I don't imagine, at 

55
00:02:43,680 --> 00:02:46,040
least I hope you wouldn't Chuck 
it across the garden here and 

56
00:02:46,040 --> 00:02:48,040
din it up and scratch it up. 
You would take good care of it, 

57
00:02:48,040 --> 00:02:49,440
wouldn't it? 
Because it's not yours. 

58
00:02:49,800 --> 00:02:51,000
It's the same thing with this 
body. 

59
00:02:51,000 --> 00:02:54,040
We are commanded because we have
one body, one life, one time. 

60
00:02:54,240 --> 00:02:56,920
That hyphen between our birth 
year and our death date, death 

61
00:02:56,920 --> 00:02:59,040
date, that hyphen, that's our 
life. 

62
00:02:59,440 --> 00:03:01,440
We need to take care of this 
body that we've been given for 

63
00:03:01,440 --> 00:03:03,800
this temporary season as best we
can. 

64
00:03:03,800 --> 00:03:06,520
And that starts in the gym. 
It starts with our our four 

65
00:03:06,520 --> 00:03:09,320
pillars, our nutrition and our 
movement, our stress management,

66
00:03:09,320 --> 00:03:10,920
you know, and our connections, 
all of that. 

67
00:03:10,920 --> 00:03:13,520
It comes into the gym and it 
produces what we can do on the 

68
00:03:13,520 --> 00:03:16,800
outside as well. 
What's the biggest misconception

69
00:03:16,800 --> 00:03:20,280
that churchgoers would have 
about physical fitness and 

70
00:03:20,280 --> 00:03:24,120
staying fit? 
Some people look at is idolizing

71
00:03:24,120 --> 00:03:26,720
the body, so they look at the 
aesthetic side of it. 

72
00:03:26,840 --> 00:03:28,960
Now I understand that. 
What are your intentions? 

73
00:03:28,960 --> 00:03:32,520
Why are you training? 
Are you trying to look better to

74
00:03:32,520 --> 00:03:35,640
get more likes, to get more 
ticks, to get more thumbs up, to

75
00:03:35,640 --> 00:03:37,440
get more people to stare at you?
Are you going to take less 

76
00:03:37,440 --> 00:03:39,240
clothes off? 
You're going to be in modest And

77
00:03:39,240 --> 00:03:41,080
the reality is, so let's just be
be honest. 

78
00:03:41,080 --> 00:03:43,480
The reality is that happens to 
many people. 

79
00:03:43,800 --> 00:03:46,280
Many people do that. 
They start getting fit, they get

80
00:03:46,280 --> 00:03:48,960
cut, they get ripped, and they 
get less clothes. 

81
00:03:48,960 --> 00:03:51,720
OK, I don't agree with that. 
You know, personally, I think 

82
00:03:51,800 --> 00:03:53,640
you cover something up, you 
cover a gift up. 

83
00:03:53,640 --> 00:03:54,920
That's what we do for Christmas,
don't we? 

84
00:03:55,200 --> 00:03:57,240
We wrap the gifts up because of 
something that's precious. 

85
00:03:57,600 --> 00:04:00,560
Again, I know that's that may 
sound slightly judgmental, but 

86
00:04:00,560 --> 00:04:02,640
that will be the side of some of
the people who aren't 

87
00:04:02,640 --> 00:04:04,880
churchgoers. 
Look at the gym, that it's a 

88
00:04:04,880 --> 00:04:07,280
place where it's something 
that's just carnal, if you will.

89
00:04:07,280 --> 00:04:10,960
Carnal means fleshly and so, and
I understand that side of it, 

90
00:04:10,960 --> 00:04:13,440
but there's also a scriptural 
side of it that shows that we 

91
00:04:13,440 --> 00:04:15,440
should support and take care of 
this body. 

92
00:04:15,440 --> 00:04:18,000
And we need to make a decision 
as to how we're going to do 

93
00:04:18,000 --> 00:04:19,720
that. 
We can do that here at our house

94
00:04:19,720 --> 00:04:22,040
and our home gyms. 
You're losing that part of that 

95
00:04:22,040 --> 00:04:23,760
healthy connections, that 
community. 

96
00:04:24,280 --> 00:04:27,080
Or we can do it in a gym and 
just, you know, be disciplined. 

97
00:04:27,080 --> 00:04:30,240
Discipline's a big, it's a big 
ideology between the Bible calls

98
00:04:30,240 --> 00:04:33,120
it temperance. 
We can just be disciplined with 

99
00:04:33,120 --> 00:04:36,400
our eyes, our minds, our mouth, 
what we do, what we say, and 

100
00:04:36,400 --> 00:04:39,480
just get better in life. 
And here's the reality of it as 

101
00:04:39,480 --> 00:04:42,400
a churchgoer, if we don't get 
outside of the four walls of the

102
00:04:42,400 --> 00:04:44,360
church, how are we going to help
the world? 

103
00:04:44,360 --> 00:04:45,600
How are we going to help the 
community? 

104
00:04:45,880 --> 00:04:47,480
I can't make my community 
better. 

105
00:04:47,480 --> 00:04:50,320
I can't assist to assist to make
our people or help them to 

106
00:04:50,440 --> 00:04:52,760
improve in their life and help 
them when they're down. 

107
00:04:53,280 --> 00:04:56,400
If I'm stuck behind the pulpit, 
you know, 24/7, got to get out 

108
00:04:56,400 --> 00:04:58,000
in real life. 
So what, what would what would 

109
00:04:58,000 --> 00:05:01,440
be the aim then of the training 
that if if it's it's not about 

110
00:05:01,440 --> 00:05:03,280
the ego, it's not about the 
vanity? 

111
00:05:03,560 --> 00:05:08,480
Is it to be the best version of 
yourself to help yourself but or

112
00:05:08,480 --> 00:05:10,480
to help help others? 
Or both? 

113
00:05:11,080 --> 00:05:13,480
If you don't think about this 
when you're on an airplane, you 

114
00:05:13,480 --> 00:05:15,680
get ready to fly on the airplane
and the flight attendant comes 

115
00:05:15,680 --> 00:05:17,040
up and then you know where I'm 
going with this. 

116
00:05:17,440 --> 00:05:19,560
You know, they come, they, they 
start giving the tutorial and 

117
00:05:19,560 --> 00:05:21,280
this and that. 
What's 1 of the things they say 

118
00:05:21,280 --> 00:05:23,760
about them? 
Oxygen masks if the pressure 

119
00:05:23,760 --> 00:05:25,480
loosens in, the oxygen mask 
drops down. 

120
00:05:25,480 --> 00:05:28,360
Put yours on 1st and then assist
others. 

121
00:05:28,360 --> 00:05:31,040
Why? 
Because if you pass out because 

122
00:05:31,040 --> 00:05:33,960
of oxygen deprivation, you can't
help those next to you. 

123
00:05:34,520 --> 00:05:37,480
So if I don't make sure that I 
am trying to be as fit as I can 

124
00:05:37,480 --> 00:05:40,360
be, as healthy as I can be, you 
know I understand things happen,

125
00:05:40,360 --> 00:05:43,000
accidents happen, issues happen,
disease happens. 

126
00:05:43,040 --> 00:05:46,960
All of those things happen that 
are out of our our control, but 

127
00:05:46,960 --> 00:05:48,760
there are some things that are 
in our control. 

128
00:05:48,760 --> 00:05:52,160
And because they are, we should 
maximize our effort to improve 

129
00:05:52,160 --> 00:05:55,200
them every single day. 
And the main reason I need to do

130
00:05:55,200 --> 00:05:57,880
it for myself, I need to do it 
for my family and I need to do 

131
00:05:57,880 --> 00:06:00,920
it for someone else so that, you
know, again, you take the vanity

132
00:06:00,920 --> 00:06:03,280
out of it, You take, you know, 
those aspects out of it. 

133
00:06:03,760 --> 00:06:06,720
The getting better is you're 
just getting better every single

134
00:06:06,720 --> 00:06:10,560
day, just a small percent every 
day so that I can reach over 

135
00:06:10,560 --> 00:06:13,000
there and help you be a little 
bit better, help you reach your 

136
00:06:13,000 --> 00:06:14,000
goals. 
What's going to happen? 

137
00:06:14,280 --> 00:06:16,320
You're going to do the same 
thing to another person and 

138
00:06:16,320 --> 00:06:17,760
another person and another 
person. 

139
00:06:18,160 --> 00:06:19,600
And that's really how the world 
should work. 

140
00:06:19,600 --> 00:06:21,720
That's how our connection should
work in our life. 

141
00:06:22,520 --> 00:06:26,560
You coach CrossFit, right? 
Yeah, yeah. 

142
00:06:28,400 --> 00:06:30,880
We're not CrossFit anymore. 
So we're high rocks now and. 

143
00:06:31,240 --> 00:06:33,240
Is it CrossFit? 
It is CrossFit, yeah. 

144
00:06:33,240 --> 00:06:34,760
We're. 
Still, we still got a taste of 

145
00:06:34,760 --> 00:06:36,760
CrossFit in there. 
We're not an affiliate anymore. 

146
00:06:36,760 --> 00:06:37,840
You can't. 
Say the name. 

147
00:06:38,160 --> 00:06:41,840
I don't think so. 
So we are a high rugs affiliate.

148
00:06:42,320 --> 00:06:44,560
I'm still a CrossFit trainer, 
but I don't think I can say the 

149
00:06:44,560 --> 00:06:45,920
name without us being an 
affiliate either. 

150
00:06:45,920 --> 00:06:47,320
I don't know. 
I don't know how the rules are 

151
00:06:47,320 --> 00:06:49,960
working anymore. 
But we're a general population 

152
00:06:49,960 --> 00:06:52,040
gym. 
We're trying to hit every single

153
00:06:52,040 --> 00:06:55,480
corner and edge that there is 
from moms to fathers to children

154
00:06:55,480 --> 00:06:58,920
to youth to rugby clubs to the 
general population, the 

155
00:06:58,920 --> 00:07:01,160
secretary, the home mother, 
everything. 

156
00:07:01,160 --> 00:07:03,480
We're trying to hit and help 
people's life improve. 

157
00:07:03,480 --> 00:07:05,120
So that's, that's their, that's 
the goal. 

158
00:07:05,120 --> 00:07:06,520
Because that's everyday life, 
isn't it? 

159
00:07:06,920 --> 00:07:07,640
Yeah. 
I suppose so. 

160
00:07:07,640 --> 00:07:10,680
But like, I want, I want you to 
put a big debate to rest now. 

161
00:07:11,200 --> 00:07:14,400
Hyrox versus CrossFit. 
What's the difference on which 

162
00:07:14,400 --> 00:07:18,160
one's better? 
I don't want to get you in 

163
00:07:18,160 --> 00:07:18,760
trouble. 
Oh my. 

164
00:07:18,760 --> 00:07:19,800
Soul, you're going to get in 
trouble. 

165
00:07:21,040 --> 00:07:24,920
So which one's better? 
General population, Hyrox is 

166
00:07:24,920 --> 00:07:29,360
better for runners. 
Hyrox is better for those who 

167
00:07:29,360 --> 00:07:33,040
want to improve in what we call 
virtuosity, which is doing 

168
00:07:33,400 --> 00:07:36,680
common things uncommonly well, 
which CrossFit is built around 

169
00:07:36,680 --> 00:07:39,840
around from the Olympic lifting,
from getting stronger, from 

170
00:07:39,840 --> 00:07:44,080
being fit to be able to do in a 
great long run. 

171
00:07:44,080 --> 00:07:46,840
OK, in your life, Crossfit's 
going to be more applicable to 

172
00:07:46,840 --> 00:07:49,520
those type of people, but it 
depends on what your goals are 

173
00:07:49,520 --> 00:07:52,040
as well. 
Is your goal to be able to run, 

174
00:07:52,080 --> 00:07:54,800
you know, the 8K and do all of 
the things on in between there 

175
00:07:54,800 --> 00:07:57,560
like in high rocks and have that
great event, which if you've 

176
00:07:57,560 --> 00:08:00,160
seen the events as the events 
are massive, man, it's a big 

177
00:08:00,160 --> 00:08:02,920
community, it's high energy, 
it's a field day. 

178
00:08:02,920 --> 00:08:06,080
It's a wonderful thing to do. 
There is a lot of runner running

179
00:08:06,080 --> 00:08:08,320
in there. 
That's it's a runner's paradise,

180
00:08:08,320 --> 00:08:12,160
OK, Whereas CrossFit not so much
is it's a movement. 

181
00:08:12,240 --> 00:08:14,200
It's a movement area. 
It's a place where the the 

182
00:08:14,200 --> 00:08:18,000
gymnast is going to do the, the 
better part better, you know, 

183
00:08:18,040 --> 00:08:19,560
score, they're going to hit the 
better goal. 

184
00:08:20,680 --> 00:08:24,160
I do think it's a little bit 
crosses, a little curtail to the

185
00:08:24,160 --> 00:08:27,000
shorter people in the world, I 
will say that. 

186
00:08:27,000 --> 00:08:31,280
But I mean, you can't argue with
the fitness that CrossFit 

187
00:08:31,280 --> 00:08:35,400
produces. 
I my personal opinion is this. 

188
00:08:35,799 --> 00:08:39,360
I think for someone who wants to
be ultra serious in being hyper 

189
00:08:39,360 --> 00:08:41,320
competitive, I think CrossFit is
better. 

190
00:08:41,679 --> 00:08:44,560
I think for someone who wants to
do general mobility, general 

191
00:08:44,560 --> 00:08:48,400
movement and general exercises 
along with that extensive 

192
00:08:48,400 --> 00:08:52,120
running, because you can't argue
the running, this is hard, high 

193
00:08:52,120 --> 00:08:54,480
rocks is going to be better. 
So it really depends on what 

194
00:08:54,480 --> 00:08:57,440
your goals as to what is better,
if you will. 

195
00:08:57,520 --> 00:08:58,720
Yeah. 
I suppose it comes down to you 

196
00:08:59,000 --> 00:09:02,680
as it's funny that you said that
CrossFit is sort of better for 

197
00:09:02,680 --> 00:09:05,640
the shorter people, but I know 
exactly what you mean. 

198
00:09:05,640 --> 00:09:06,840
Because they're always so 
stacked. 

199
00:09:07,000 --> 00:09:10,320
Why are higher? 
Why are CrossFit athletes always

200
00:09:10,320 --> 00:09:13,400
so jacked? 
What is it about the training? 

201
00:09:13,760 --> 00:09:16,120
Well, it's high intensity. 
The training is high intensity. 

202
00:09:16,120 --> 00:09:18,120
But here's also the thing. 
When you're looking at the 

203
00:09:18,120 --> 00:09:20,800
CrossFit athletes, they aren't 
jacked and they're jacked at a 

204
00:09:20,800 --> 00:09:22,840
certain degree. 
They're taking care of what 

205
00:09:22,840 --> 00:09:24,800
needs to be taken care of on the
back end. 

206
00:09:24,800 --> 00:09:28,160
That's what we miss. 
We missed 75% of their life, 80%

207
00:09:28,160 --> 00:09:29,440
of their life, which is 
nutrition. 

208
00:09:29,680 --> 00:09:31,240
Nutrition is what is helping 
you. 

209
00:09:31,480 --> 00:09:33,920
You cut the fat, build the 
muscle and things along like 

210
00:09:33,920 --> 00:09:35,680
that. 
The workouts are complementary 

211
00:09:35,680 --> 00:09:38,480
of all that and you can't get 
stronger, better, faster, more 

212
00:09:38,480 --> 00:09:40,120
agile, all of that without the 
training. 

213
00:09:40,440 --> 00:09:43,000
But you can also reach the goals
that you need to and have that 

214
00:09:43,000 --> 00:09:45,520
appearance of the jacked 
Crossfitter without having the 

215
00:09:45,520 --> 00:09:47,640
proper fuel in that body. 
That's the key. 

216
00:09:47,840 --> 00:09:51,600
And most of those guys, most 
people who are in CrossFit, they

217
00:09:51,600 --> 00:09:53,640
are dedicated and they are 
disciplined at least for a 

218
00:09:53,640 --> 00:09:56,560
number of years, OK, very 
discipline. 

219
00:09:56,560 --> 00:09:59,560
Discipline to the sport itself, 
discipline to the activities. 

220
00:09:59,560 --> 00:10:03,280
Even the everyday gym goer who 
has found CrossFit because it's 

221
00:10:03,280 --> 00:10:06,440
just what CrossFit produced. 
CrossFit produced something for 

222
00:10:06,440 --> 00:10:08,960
people like myself who is a 
former athlete. 

223
00:10:09,320 --> 00:10:12,120
It gives you that team mindset 
because you're sweating in 

224
00:10:12,120 --> 00:10:14,120
there. 
You were going to dark places in

225
00:10:14,120 --> 00:10:16,200
the gym, but you're doing it 
together, one with another. 

226
00:10:16,560 --> 00:10:19,280
And man, it gives you, I mean, 
the Kool-aid is drinking very, 

227
00:10:19,280 --> 00:10:22,120
very quick, The shoes, the 
shorts, the tops, all of those 

228
00:10:22,120 --> 00:10:24,800
things. 
And so you know when you get it,

229
00:10:24,800 --> 00:10:27,480
when you get involved in it, 
you're doing the 55 workouts a 

230
00:10:27,480 --> 00:10:30,040
week, you're taking the two days
off, but you want to make sure 

231
00:10:30,040 --> 00:10:32,320
you maintain everything so 
you're getting the proper 

232
00:10:32,320 --> 00:10:34,480
nutrition and the proper fuel 
because people are really 

233
00:10:34,480 --> 00:10:37,640
dedicated part time 
Crossfitters. 

234
00:10:37,640 --> 00:10:38,880
They're going through the 
motions. 

235
00:10:38,880 --> 00:10:41,120
They're doing what they can do. 
That's why we had the scale 

236
00:10:41,120 --> 00:10:42,920
version for it. 
But they're doing what they can 

237
00:10:42,920 --> 00:10:44,560
do. 
And the biggest, the biggest I 

238
00:10:44,560 --> 00:10:47,280
think attribute to that is 
they're moving, They're moving, 

239
00:10:47,280 --> 00:10:49,360
they're moving still part of 
that healthy lifestyle. 

240
00:10:49,360 --> 00:10:52,000
It makes a difference in their 
life and it does help them. 

241
00:10:52,640 --> 00:10:55,200
They may never be in the games. 
They may never be on the posters

242
00:10:55,200 --> 00:10:57,280
or the telly or anything along 
that line. 

243
00:10:57,440 --> 00:10:59,760
However, they're doing more than
they were before. 

244
00:10:59,760 --> 00:11:02,480
They're getting up off of the 
sofa, if you will. 

245
00:11:02,840 --> 00:11:04,960
And that's, that's what's 
important, you know, today. 

246
00:11:04,960 --> 00:11:06,520
But that's one of the reasons 
they're jacked, man. 

247
00:11:06,520 --> 00:11:08,440
It's because they're dedicated. 
It comes down to that, that 

248
00:11:08,440 --> 00:11:10,280
other D word discipline, man. 
And. 

249
00:11:10,280 --> 00:11:11,360
Discipline. 
So what? 

250
00:11:11,360 --> 00:11:14,880
What's one thing that the 
everyday athlete is missing if 

251
00:11:14,880 --> 00:11:16,760
they're lacking this strength 
building, If they're lacking 

252
00:11:16,760 --> 00:11:19,640
size building, What you see is 
the most common thing that 

253
00:11:19,640 --> 00:11:22,600
people are lacking that if they 
just introduced it, they would 

254
00:11:22,600 --> 00:11:25,400
see massive gain. 
Typically I'll choices, that's 

255
00:11:25,400 --> 00:11:28,120
usually what we don't do enough 
on the back end, stress 

256
00:11:28,120 --> 00:11:29,640
management. 
We don't do enough for 

257
00:11:29,640 --> 00:11:31,520
recovering. 
We don't do enough for our fuel 

258
00:11:31,520 --> 00:11:35,320
our our our nutritional 
replacement in the body to build

259
00:11:35,320 --> 00:11:38,040
those muscles back up to when 
you're torn down on the floor. 

260
00:11:38,040 --> 00:11:39,880
But then we don't do enough on 
the back end. 

261
00:11:40,280 --> 00:11:42,240
So in other words, somebody 
comes into a gym with across 

262
00:11:42,240 --> 00:11:44,120
from the higher oxygen, the 
workouts on the board, the 

263
00:11:44,120 --> 00:11:45,320
workout is being written for 
them. 

264
00:11:45,320 --> 00:11:46,760
The coach is telling them what 
to do. 

265
00:11:47,080 --> 00:11:50,160
They're being told every step of
the way for one hour in that gym

266
00:11:50,160 --> 00:11:52,360
and they are working hard, 
they're sweating, everybody's 

267
00:11:52,360 --> 00:11:54,920
laying on the floor when it's 
done and dusted, making the 

268
00:11:54,920 --> 00:11:56,360
sweat angels on the floor and 
all that. 

269
00:11:56,360 --> 00:11:57,480
And that's all great and 
wonderful. 

270
00:11:57,840 --> 00:12:01,160
But when they leave, OK, what 
choices are they making to 

271
00:12:01,160 --> 00:12:03,320
support what they've just 
performed? 

272
00:12:03,440 --> 00:12:04,800
Are they getting a 20 minute 
sauna? 

273
00:12:04,800 --> 00:12:06,240
Are they jumping in the cold 
punch? 

274
00:12:06,560 --> 00:12:09,040
Are they taking in the 30 grams 
of protein in their bodies 

275
00:12:09,360 --> 00:12:11,600
immediately, within 30 minutes 
so they can replenish the 

276
00:12:11,600 --> 00:12:13,560
muscles? 
Are they hydrating enough, which

277
00:12:13,560 --> 00:12:16,280
is another element of our life 
that we miss constantly. 

278
00:12:16,600 --> 00:12:19,640
So that's if I, if I had to 
narrow it down to one thing, I'm

279
00:12:19,640 --> 00:12:22,720
going to say nutrition. 
And I'm going to say taking care

280
00:12:22,720 --> 00:12:25,480
of your body on the back end 
outside of the gym, because what

281
00:12:25,480 --> 00:12:27,920
you do outside of the gym is 
going to compliment you, what 

282
00:12:27,920 --> 00:12:29,840
you do in the gym and vice 
versa. 

283
00:12:29,840 --> 00:12:31,560
And. 
What does that look like then? 

284
00:12:31,560 --> 00:12:33,440
Taking care of the body? 
What what what are they doing? 

285
00:12:33,600 --> 00:12:35,920
You talked about sort of a post 
post workout shake. 

286
00:12:36,640 --> 00:12:39,320
You know how what's what does 
their nutrition have to look 

287
00:12:39,320 --> 00:12:40,960
like? 
How does their sleep have to 

288
00:12:40,960 --> 00:12:42,480
look like? 
What what does that look like? 

289
00:12:42,480 --> 00:12:46,520
Taking the backhand stuff, the. 
Average person needs is required

290
00:12:46,520 --> 00:12:50,280
6 to 8 hours of sleep a night to
have their body rejuvenated what

291
00:12:50,280 --> 00:12:52,520
where it needs to be. 
Creatine's a big push. 

292
00:12:52,520 --> 00:12:55,360
When we talk about supplements, 
the only the only supplement I 

293
00:12:55,360 --> 00:12:57,960
take other than just protein 
during the shakes and whatnot 

294
00:12:58,240 --> 00:13:00,960
and some breakfasts is creatine.
I take it in my coffee first 

295
00:13:00,960 --> 00:13:03,440
thing in the morning. 
Even the cognitive benefits that

296
00:13:03,440 --> 00:13:06,280
you have from creatine today are
tremendous. 

297
00:13:06,360 --> 00:13:08,680
You know, first thing in the 
morning with my first coffee, I 

298
00:13:08,680 --> 00:13:10,720
can, I can sense a different and
tell a difference. 

299
00:13:11,040 --> 00:13:13,120
So those are the nutritional 
aspects. 

300
00:13:13,120 --> 00:13:15,680
But then when you look at a 
point with all the metrics we 

301
00:13:15,680 --> 00:13:18,880
have today, all the data that is
driven is knowing how much you 

302
00:13:18,880 --> 00:13:21,920
weigh, getting that in body done
or a body analysis somewhere, 

303
00:13:22,160 --> 00:13:24,360
knowing what your fat percentage
is, knowing what your lean 

304
00:13:24,360 --> 00:13:27,840
muscle mass is, knowing what 
your adipose fat is and your 

305
00:13:27,840 --> 00:13:30,480
visceral fat and then taking 
those measures to lose it. 

306
00:13:30,480 --> 00:13:33,320
And how you do that is not 
cutting all the the calories 

307
00:13:33,320 --> 00:13:34,480
down. 
I was talking to someone the 

308
00:13:34,480 --> 00:13:36,080
other day. 
They said, hey, BG, I'm I'm 

309
00:13:36,080 --> 00:13:39,200
taking in 1300 and 1550 calories
a day. 

310
00:13:39,440 --> 00:13:41,200
I said an infant can't survive 
on that. 

311
00:13:41,280 --> 00:13:44,080
That's why you have more fat on 
your body than you do muscle. 

312
00:13:44,280 --> 00:13:45,600
Your body's in a catabolic 
state. 

313
00:13:45,640 --> 00:13:49,400
Your body is built to survive, 
so we have to either trick it or

314
00:13:49,400 --> 00:13:51,800
complement it and we can do both
at the same time. 

315
00:13:52,120 --> 00:13:55,960
So you need that high protein 
diet, You need that diet that 

316
00:13:55,960 --> 00:14:00,640
comes in that is based upon your
not only your basal metabolic 

317
00:14:00,640 --> 00:14:03,440
rate, but it's based on your 
calorie intake and your calorie 

318
00:14:03,440 --> 00:14:06,000
out at the end of the day. 
If you get the calories out and 

319
00:14:06,000 --> 00:14:07,920
the calories in, you're 
rebuilding those muscles. 

320
00:14:07,920 --> 00:14:10,800
That's the simple definition of 
it and the simple ease, if you 

321
00:14:10,800 --> 00:14:12,760
will. 
But starving the body is going 

322
00:14:12,760 --> 00:14:14,960
to kill the body. 
I believe in five to six 

323
00:14:14,960 --> 00:14:18,360
settings a day. 
Breakfast, snack, lunch, snack, 

324
00:14:18,520 --> 00:14:20,680
breakfast, snack. 
And then break that. 

325
00:14:20,720 --> 00:14:24,480
Break all of your caloric intake
down into those 5 to 6 settings.

326
00:14:24,800 --> 00:14:27,040
But make sure you hit your 
proteins and then you can make 

327
00:14:27,040 --> 00:14:29,800
it up on your fats and your 
carbs, but make sure you hit 

328
00:14:29,800 --> 00:14:31,920
your protein because that's the 
building block of muscles. 

329
00:14:31,920 --> 00:14:34,520
And that's what's going to help 
you recover and reach the goals 

330
00:14:34,520 --> 00:14:36,080
that you really need to reach. 
What? 

331
00:14:36,080 --> 00:14:38,720
Does it look like when someone's
not getting those calories in 

332
00:14:38,800 --> 00:14:40,440
and they're still trying to 
change, So what? 

333
00:14:40,440 --> 00:14:44,560
Happens is the body and the body
analysis Purdue you see, you can

334
00:14:44,560 --> 00:14:48,560
see the fat they're in the in 
the, the, the, the, the bathroom

335
00:14:48,560 --> 00:14:49,880
or whatever. 
They're looking in the mirror 

336
00:14:50,280 --> 00:14:52,480
and they're like, I'm just not 
looking like, you know, Josie 

337
00:14:52,480 --> 00:14:54,360
down at the gym. 
I'm not looking like gym over 

338
00:14:54,360 --> 00:14:55,680
there. 
I'm what's going on? 

339
00:14:55,680 --> 00:14:57,400
What's wrong with me? 
Well, your body's holding on to 

340
00:14:57,400 --> 00:14:59,120
fat because the body's built to 
survive. 

341
00:14:59,120 --> 00:15:02,160
The body is going to burn muscle
in that catabolic state unless 

342
00:15:02,160 --> 00:15:05,400
you put enough food into it so 
that it can burn those food and 

343
00:15:05,400 --> 00:15:07,240
live off of that. 
So you building blocks are going

344
00:15:07,240 --> 00:15:09,840
to be a protein, your energy you
want to pull from the fats, if 

345
00:15:09,840 --> 00:15:11,520
you will. 
If you don't want to store the 

346
00:15:11,520 --> 00:15:13,640
carbohydrates, that's just 
converted into sugars and 

347
00:15:13,640 --> 00:15:15,360
covered, converted into fats as 
well. 

348
00:15:15,760 --> 00:15:18,160
So that's what it looks like. 
It looks like knowing what you 

349
00:15:18,160 --> 00:15:19,800
want and knowing what your goals
are. 

350
00:15:20,120 --> 00:15:22,680
So typically we want to make 
sure there's enough protein 

351
00:15:22,680 --> 00:15:24,880
based upon how many kilos a 
person weighs. 

352
00:15:25,400 --> 00:15:27,360
You know, you'll look it up and 
you'll see the like the general 

353
00:15:27,360 --> 00:15:31,280
settings are like 1.8g of 
protein, you know, per kilo. 

354
00:15:31,280 --> 00:15:35,640
I'm, I'm, I'm quite protein 
biased or I'm, you know, I'll 

355
00:15:35,640 --> 00:15:39,760
lean toward 2 1/2 to 2.8 if I 
have to, you know, so I believe 

356
00:15:39,760 --> 00:15:43,280
in high protein. 
So, but I also I'm not a big car

357
00:15:43,280 --> 00:15:44,840
beater. 
I mean, you know, try not to be.

358
00:15:45,040 --> 00:15:46,720
Yeah, yeah, yeah. 
But you're a big guy. 

359
00:15:46,720 --> 00:15:48,360
Like what? 
What does your meals look like 

360
00:15:48,360 --> 00:15:49,880
for them throughout the day on 
average? 

361
00:15:49,960 --> 00:15:52,160
So. 
I'm, I, I take in about 42 to 

362
00:15:52,160 --> 00:15:55,080
4400 calories a day. 
How much? 

363
00:15:55,960 --> 00:15:59,360
42 to 4400. 
And but they're, they're broken 

364
00:15:59,360 --> 00:16:02,120
down into 6 steps though. 
And so three of those things are

365
00:16:02,120 --> 00:16:04,800
going to be what I call a snack,
which can be a protein shake. 

366
00:16:05,440 --> 00:16:09,480
They can be a, a tub of, of 
yogurt with fruit, but mixed 

367
00:16:09,480 --> 00:16:12,800
with protein in it as well. 
Cottage cheese is another one 

368
00:16:12,800 --> 00:16:14,520
for my snacks. 
But my meals are going to be 

369
00:16:14,520 --> 00:16:16,640
pretty well set. 
My breakfast meal. 

370
00:16:16,640 --> 00:16:19,200
I have this little paleo 
concoction of a porridge, you 

371
00:16:19,200 --> 00:16:21,880
know, with, you know, coconut 
flakes and all this and that 

372
00:16:21,880 --> 00:16:25,600
and, and cheese, chia seeds and 
things with a little bit of a 

373
00:16:25,600 --> 00:16:27,560
vanilla whey protein that's 
mixed into it. 

374
00:16:28,120 --> 00:16:29,320
And that's a great little 
setting. 

375
00:16:29,320 --> 00:16:32,600
But that's about 650 calories 
that they're alone just in the 

376
00:16:32,600 --> 00:16:34,320
breakfast. 
My lunch is usually going to be,

377
00:16:34,400 --> 00:16:37,200
you know, your standard chicken,
a little bit of potatoes, 

378
00:16:37,920 --> 00:16:40,640
greens, if my wife makes me eat 
them, I, you know, I got to 

379
00:16:40,640 --> 00:16:44,280
force feed me the vegetables. 
But then usually the same thing 

380
00:16:44,280 --> 00:16:48,640
for same thing for dinner. 
Is that chicken or that steak or

381
00:16:48,640 --> 00:16:51,880
that beef type of meal? 
I'll tell you what I had for a 

382
00:16:51,880 --> 00:16:53,960
snack this morning when I got 
home from shift. 

383
00:16:53,960 --> 00:16:59,200
I think it's about 10:00 because
I had AI had a 500 gram rib eye 

384
00:16:59,520 --> 00:17:02,440
and five eggs. 
That was my mid morning snack. 

385
00:17:02,760 --> 00:17:04,920
That was lush. 
Yeah, that that, Yeah. 

386
00:17:04,920 --> 00:17:06,760
If you only only we could eat 
that all the time. 

387
00:17:06,760 --> 00:17:07,640
Like Jesus. 
Yeah. 

388
00:17:07,920 --> 00:17:11,079
Yeah, and again, I, I personally
think, I mean, you know, again, 

389
00:17:11,079 --> 00:17:13,599
this comes down to the 
affordability, but I mean, you 

390
00:17:13,680 --> 00:17:16,800
know, you eat 2 steaks a day and
some eggs, you know, there you 

391
00:17:16,800 --> 00:17:17,760
go. 
You gonna get your protein 

392
00:17:17,760 --> 00:17:18,440
intake in there. 
Oh. 

393
00:17:18,560 --> 00:17:21,640
You be getting that in. 
Do you meal prep at all Then how

394
00:17:21,640 --> 00:17:23,359
do you set all this up? 
Are you doing that night before?

395
00:17:23,359 --> 00:17:25,680
Depends. 
On the day because we we, we run

396
00:17:25,680 --> 00:17:27,839
a fairly busy schedule. 
We're seven days a week and 

397
00:17:27,839 --> 00:17:31,520
we're flat wide open. 
So like yesterday, yesterday we 

398
00:17:31,520 --> 00:17:33,440
were up training way early in 
the morning. 

399
00:17:33,440 --> 00:17:36,000
I was in the school doing Bible 
assembly at 9:15. 

400
00:17:36,160 --> 00:17:38,520
Then we had eight fitness 
classes in the in the school. 

401
00:17:38,520 --> 00:17:40,560
After that. 
I had a meeting with the head 

402
00:17:40,560 --> 00:17:43,160
teacher in between during lunch,
and then I had a meeting with 

403
00:17:43,520 --> 00:17:46,680
another guy from the council in 
the same school right 

404
00:17:46,680 --> 00:17:47,960
afterwards. 
And then I got church in the 

405
00:17:47,960 --> 00:17:50,520
night time, so a day off. 
I know a day like that is 

406
00:17:50,520 --> 00:17:52,400
coming. 
We meal prep everything the 

407
00:17:52,400 --> 00:17:54,280
night before. 
So we get everything together 

408
00:17:54,280 --> 00:17:57,360
between snacks, breakfasts, 
dinners, everything, you name 

409
00:17:57,360 --> 00:17:58,760
it. 
Protein shakes, whatever we 

410
00:17:58,760 --> 00:18:00,760
need. 
It goes in a huge little lunch 

411
00:18:00,760 --> 00:18:03,240
box that we take up to the 
church and that's with us the 

412
00:18:03,240 --> 00:18:05,680
whole time. 
On the average day, we use about

413
00:18:05,680 --> 00:18:07,880
a meal and a snack ahead of 
ourselves. 

414
00:18:08,320 --> 00:18:11,040
So the breakfast will be made 
whilst lunch and the mid morning

415
00:18:11,040 --> 00:18:13,400
snack is made. 
And then after we finish eating 

416
00:18:13,400 --> 00:18:16,400
lunch, my wife and I will will 
prep the dinner as well as the 

417
00:18:16,400 --> 00:18:18,320
snack as well. 
Snacks are easy. 

418
00:18:18,320 --> 00:18:19,640
I mean, you know, monkey can do 
that. 

419
00:18:19,640 --> 00:18:22,120
We can go in there and throw it 
together and get it done. 

420
00:18:22,960 --> 00:18:26,240
We don't have to measure as much
as we used to because we, I 

421
00:18:26,240 --> 00:18:28,760
mean, we've been doing this and 
and frankly, we, we pretty much 

422
00:18:28,760 --> 00:18:31,080
eat the same thing. 
So we know about what we're 

423
00:18:31,080 --> 00:18:33,240
eating. 
That's why I said 42 to 4400, 

424
00:18:33,720 --> 00:18:36,680
like today, obviously it's going
to be a little bit more because 

425
00:18:36,680 --> 00:18:38,160
of the rib eye that I had 
earlier. 

426
00:18:38,480 --> 00:18:41,360
And I'm planning on making 
chicken and potatoes tonight, 

427
00:18:41,520 --> 00:18:43,880
you know, and they'll make me, 
they'll probably make me have 

428
00:18:43,880 --> 00:18:45,960
asparagus, but we'll, I like 
asparagus. 

429
00:18:45,960 --> 00:18:48,320
I don't like many other greens, 
but yeah. 

430
00:18:48,600 --> 00:18:50,480
Asparagus is all right, Yeah. 
Makes sure we smell, though, 

431
00:18:50,480 --> 00:18:51,600
doesn't it? 
Is that what it says? 

432
00:18:51,600 --> 00:18:54,400
Like, yeah, there's a lot of 
meat there, so you better be a 

433
00:18:54,400 --> 00:18:56,120
carnivore, like, if you're 
getting into this, though, I 

434
00:18:56,120 --> 00:18:58,960
guess, yeah. 
And the thing about it is, 

435
00:18:58,960 --> 00:19:00,760
again, I talked about choices 
just a moment ago. 

436
00:19:00,760 --> 00:19:03,720
You you asked about what are 
some I'll choices that people 

437
00:19:03,720 --> 00:19:05,680
make that they're just they've 
hit that plateau. 

438
00:19:05,680 --> 00:19:07,760
And we've seen people in the gym
for six and seven and eight 

439
00:19:07,760 --> 00:19:09,000
years. 
They look the same they did the 

440
00:19:09,000 --> 00:19:11,000
day they walked in. 
And it's not because of their 

441
00:19:11,000 --> 00:19:12,640
program and not because of the 
coaching. 

442
00:19:12,640 --> 00:19:14,600
It's just because the choice is 
what you're doing on the back 

443
00:19:14,600 --> 00:19:18,320
end, you know, And so, you know,
discipline is not about just 

444
00:19:18,320 --> 00:19:20,960
doing what you need to do to 
reach the goals that you desire.

445
00:19:21,400 --> 00:19:24,720
It's about doing what you is 
refusing not to do what you want

446
00:19:24,720 --> 00:19:26,880
to do so that you can reach 
those goals as well. 

447
00:19:26,880 --> 00:19:29,360
And that's what discipline is by
definition, you know? 

448
00:19:29,360 --> 00:19:31,840
So you, I think you're going to 
watch those night outs, night 

449
00:19:31,840 --> 00:19:36,080
outs with the boys, you know, 
And yeah, I mean, it's that's 

450
00:19:36,080 --> 00:19:37,880
one of the biggest detriments 
right there, just in all 

451
00:19:37,880 --> 00:19:41,040
fairness, so. 
I know that for sure because a 

452
00:19:41,040 --> 00:19:45,080
pint is like 200 calories. 
You sink eight of those in a 

453
00:19:45,080 --> 00:19:48,480
night, that's 1600 calories. 
Then you're having the kebab, 

454
00:19:48,960 --> 00:19:51,880
but then in the morning you're 
having the Big Breakfast. 

455
00:19:52,160 --> 00:19:55,480
You're skipping your gym session
and I don't know about you, but 

456
00:19:55,600 --> 00:19:58,760
my hangovers last about 5 days 
now, so I try to well. 

457
00:19:58,760 --> 00:19:59,960
I. 
Don't drink at all so. 

458
00:19:59,960 --> 00:20:01,280
Not at all. 
You're lucky. 

459
00:20:01,520 --> 00:20:04,160
Yeah, I try not to. 
Well, I've hit 4, you know, So 

460
00:20:04,160 --> 00:20:06,360
I'm just too old. 
It just takes too much out of 

461
00:20:06,360 --> 00:20:07,400
me. 
There's a big cost. 

462
00:20:07,520 --> 00:20:08,600
If I want a night, I would drink
it. 

463
00:20:08,600 --> 00:20:11,840
And I've got to have a week to 
recover afterwards. 

464
00:20:11,840 --> 00:20:14,240
Do you know what a hangover is? 
No, with like so a. 

465
00:20:14,240 --> 00:20:19,000
Hangover is dehydrated brain. 
So when any drop of any alcohol 

466
00:20:19,000 --> 00:20:20,680
that goes into the system, it 
doesn't matter if it's cough 

467
00:20:20,680 --> 00:20:24,160
medicine, the the ADH, the anti 
diuretic hormone which regulates

468
00:20:24,160 --> 00:20:27,360
your fluid in your body, it 
shuts down, it turns off. 

469
00:20:27,760 --> 00:20:29,920
That's why you're weaning all 
night long when you're drinking.

470
00:20:29,920 --> 00:20:32,640
But if you take a you couldn't 
drink a 12 pack of soda in an 

471
00:20:32,640 --> 00:20:35,040
hour if your life depended on 
it, but you could eat 8-8 pints 

472
00:20:35,040 --> 00:20:36,520
of, you know, lager or 
something. 

473
00:20:36,800 --> 00:20:38,320
It's because the body you're 
just weaning off. 

474
00:20:38,320 --> 00:20:40,200
Well, you're draining the body 
of hydration. 

475
00:20:40,800 --> 00:20:43,480
So when you wake up in the 
morning, your brain is literally

476
00:20:43,480 --> 00:20:45,080
dehydrated. 
That's where the pain and the 

477
00:20:45,080 --> 00:20:46,960
suffering comes from. 
And that's why when you take the

478
00:20:46,960 --> 00:20:51,080
water in, you get that quick 
little buzz in the head because 

479
00:20:51,120 --> 00:20:53,120
that the brain is the first 
thing that is hydrated. 

480
00:20:53,240 --> 00:20:55,800
Last thing is your voice, your 
vocal cords is hydrated in your 

481
00:20:55,800 --> 00:20:57,960
body so. 
You've got the croaky voice, so 

482
00:20:57,960 --> 00:21:00,320
you get the croaky voice. 
So what's the best hangover cure

483
00:21:00,320 --> 00:21:01,440
then? 
Don't drink. 

484
00:21:03,720 --> 00:21:07,120
But if I had to, if I really, 
really my life was on the line, 

485
00:21:07,240 --> 00:21:09,880
I had to go to the pub, I had to
have 10 pints and watch the 

486
00:21:09,880 --> 00:21:12,680
football. 
What's the best hangover cure? 

487
00:21:12,720 --> 00:21:16,200
How am I curing that? 
Yeah, you're, you're walking me.

488
00:21:16,440 --> 00:21:18,160
How am? 
I How am I hydrating myself? 

489
00:21:19,080 --> 00:21:21,880
Well, the best thing to do, and 
I do this in the morning without

490
00:21:21,880 --> 00:21:23,800
drinking is is your 
electrolytes. 

491
00:21:23,800 --> 00:21:26,120
First thing in is 500 
milliliters of water with 

492
00:21:26,120 --> 00:21:29,240
electrolytes and then my after 
that's 500 milliliters of water 

493
00:21:29,240 --> 00:21:31,000
with my vitamins. 
I have my vitamins in a little, 

494
00:21:31,600 --> 00:21:34,080
little sachet, you know, group 
that I take in. 

495
00:21:34,200 --> 00:21:37,520
So the best thing is to do is to
hydrate yourself as best as 

496
00:21:37,520 --> 00:21:39,760
possible. 
Get as much sodium into the body

497
00:21:40,080 --> 00:21:42,760
as you can. 
No, that's just good for general

498
00:21:42,760 --> 00:21:44,280
health as well. 
Every single day. 

499
00:21:44,520 --> 00:21:47,320
But if somebody put a gun to 
your head and you are forced to 

500
00:21:47,320 --> 00:21:50,400
do they. 
Forced me BJ, they forced me 

501
00:21:50,400 --> 00:21:51,800
and. 
That's what you do is you 

502
00:21:51,800 --> 00:21:53,680
hydrate yourself. 
But I'm not saying that's a 

503
00:21:53,680 --> 00:21:55,960
remedy for it all. 
The best thing is don't do it, 

504
00:21:56,080 --> 00:21:57,840
Yeah. 
I'm certainly learning that now.

505
00:21:58,080 --> 00:22:00,880
I tend to drink probably once a 
quarter now, and that's 

506
00:22:00,880 --> 00:22:04,760
especially if I had to it's it's
not sustainable. 

507
00:22:06,040 --> 00:22:09,280
Now I'm 40 and also a parent. 
You just can't do it with the 

508
00:22:09,280 --> 00:22:11,240
kids like they, they, they 
deserve better. 

509
00:22:11,240 --> 00:22:15,200
They deserve the better. 
They deserve a present parent. 

510
00:22:15,280 --> 00:22:17,240
You know, and when you're 
hungover, it's not there. 

511
00:22:18,120 --> 00:22:18,600
That's a. 
Great. 

512
00:22:18,600 --> 00:22:21,000
That's actually a great point to
put it on like that, yeah. 

513
00:22:21,000 --> 00:22:23,840
That's the big that's been the 
biggest eye opener for me is 

514
00:22:23,840 --> 00:22:25,960
they're not getting the best out
of me and then that's not fair 

515
00:22:25,960 --> 00:22:27,680
on them. 
That's awesome, I like to hear 

516
00:22:27,680 --> 00:22:29,360
that. 
You've mentioned a few things 

517
00:22:29,360 --> 00:22:33,960
about discipline and stuff, and 
I will get on to that, but I've 

518
00:22:33,960 --> 00:22:37,080
got two more questions. 
If you had to design you, you 

519
00:22:37,080 --> 00:22:41,640
could only do one workout for 
the rest of your life every like

520
00:22:41,640 --> 00:22:46,360
whenever you're doing it, that's
you could only do one What's how

521
00:22:46,360 --> 00:22:48,560
would you design that session? 
What would that sort of 45 

522
00:22:48,560 --> 00:22:50,640
minute hour session look like? 
Right? 

523
00:22:50,640 --> 00:22:52,640
I know everyone here hates 
adverts, but this one actually 

524
00:22:52,640 --> 00:22:55,080
keeps the light on here at 
Rockman, so bear with me. 

525
00:22:55,080 --> 00:22:57,600
Rockman runs monthly online 
running and fitness challenges 

526
00:22:57,600 --> 00:23:00,440
for people short on time that 
still want a proper challenge to

527
00:23:00,440 --> 00:23:02,720
spike their motivation. 
You get the buzz of race day 

528
00:23:02,720 --> 00:23:05,440
without waiting for a far off 
event to come around with no 

529
00:23:05,440 --> 00:23:07,920
travel and no extortionate entry
fees. 

530
00:23:07,920 --> 00:23:11,000
Just real test that you can fit 
in and around your life anytime,

531
00:23:11,120 --> 00:23:13,440
anywhere, all year round. 
And if you're not quite ready 

532
00:23:13,440 --> 00:23:16,120
for a challenge yet, we've got 
free, no nonsense running and 

533
00:23:16,200 --> 00:23:18,760
strength plans that you can grab
via the link down below. 

534
00:23:18,760 --> 00:23:20,240
Now let's get back to the 
episode if. 

535
00:23:20,240 --> 00:23:23,520
I had one choice of 1 benchmark 
workout that I could do for the 

536
00:23:23,520 --> 00:23:25,320
rest of my life. 
For me, it's Linda. 

537
00:23:25,520 --> 00:23:28,840
That's what it is. 10 down to 
one bench, dead left and cleans.

538
00:23:29,800 --> 00:23:31,960
I'm going to do that every 
single day, so. 

539
00:23:31,960 --> 00:23:34,040
What is that? 
Yeah, So what's that 10? 

540
00:23:34,440 --> 00:23:36,720
10 down to 1, so it's 55 reps 
each. 

541
00:23:36,960 --> 00:23:40,000
It's body weight bench press. 
It's one point. 

542
00:23:40,000 --> 00:23:45,840
It's 1 1/2 body weight deadlift 
and it's .75 body weight cleans.

543
00:23:46,160 --> 00:23:49,760
10 down to 1. 
So that's Linda, Linda, Linda 

544
00:23:49,760 --> 00:23:52,200
all day long. 
Secondly will be DT and I love 

545
00:23:52,200 --> 00:23:54,400
DT. 
If I'm going to put a workout 

546
00:23:54,400 --> 00:23:57,560
together for the general 
population and what would that 

547
00:23:57,560 --> 00:24:00,640
look like, What would a great 
general population workout going

548
00:24:00,640 --> 00:24:02,120
to be? 
I'm going to have our strength. 

549
00:24:02,280 --> 00:24:04,280
Our strength is going to be is 
going to be squats. 

550
00:24:04,720 --> 00:24:08,280
Squats is the test of life. 
The bar on the shoulders is what

551
00:24:08,480 --> 00:24:10,680
you know, it's going to hold you
down and you got to drive it up 

552
00:24:10,680 --> 00:24:13,160
and you got to work through it. 
So it's going to be squats in 

553
00:24:13,160 --> 00:24:15,240
the strength session. 
And from that point forward it's

554
00:24:15,240 --> 00:24:18,880
going to be an upper, a mid and 
an upper and a gymnastics and a 

555
00:24:18,880 --> 00:24:20,880
lower work throughout the 
session itself. 

556
00:24:21,480 --> 00:24:24,720
The studies have shown that a 12
minute AMRAP is the the greatest

557
00:24:24,720 --> 00:24:28,280
time level for workout the most,
the greatest benefit level for 

558
00:24:28,280 --> 00:24:31,120
the particular AMRAP. 
And So what I would probably 

559
00:24:31,120 --> 00:24:34,880
what I would do personally is I 
would work on an upward scale 

560
00:24:35,480 --> 00:24:38,440
between gymnastics of muscle 
UPS, bar muscle ups. 

561
00:24:38,800 --> 00:24:41,240
And this is just me because I 
just, I just love them, you know

562
00:24:41,240 --> 00:24:43,120
what I'm saying? 
And then I would definitely have

563
00:24:43,120 --> 00:24:45,240
bench in there. 
And I, I mean, sorry, I have 

564
00:24:45,240 --> 00:24:47,880
cleaning jerk in there for your,
your movement. 

565
00:24:47,880 --> 00:24:49,560
And then I would have the Co 
work of Toto bars. 

566
00:24:49,560 --> 00:24:53,000
So trying to stay off of a lot 
of a lot of other work that you 

567
00:24:53,000 --> 00:24:55,760
would do, say in a strength 
session, you got your squats 

568
00:24:55,760 --> 00:24:57,000
over here. 
And then we're going to hit our,

569
00:24:57,200 --> 00:25:00,360
our cleaning jerk, hit your, 
your gymnastics with your bars 

570
00:25:00,640 --> 00:25:03,360
and either bar muscle up. 
So that's something that I would

571
00:25:03,360 --> 00:25:05,560
work around there. 
And then for the cardio section 

572
00:25:05,560 --> 00:25:09,520
of it, just do 12 calls of ski, 
so 12 reps of each 12121212 

573
00:25:09,520 --> 00:25:11,520
minutes. 
That's what I would do if I had 

574
00:25:11,520 --> 00:25:13,720
to program that for someone and 
that's what they got to do for 

575
00:25:13,720 --> 00:25:15,880
the rest of their life. 
That's a full body workout, 

576
00:25:15,880 --> 00:25:19,000
everything that they would need 
and somebody, somebody might ask

577
00:25:19,000 --> 00:25:20,280
you, well, how are you going to 
use a muscle up? 

578
00:25:20,400 --> 00:25:21,560
Have you got to run from 
someone? 

579
00:25:21,560 --> 00:25:23,880
You can jump on a roof and you 
can keep moving and go so. 

580
00:25:24,200 --> 00:25:27,480
Yeah, but yeah, if you've done a
bit of shoplifting on the side, 

581
00:25:27,480 --> 00:25:29,520
like yeah, you can, you can get 
away from them. 

582
00:25:29,800 --> 00:25:33,040
You mentioned muscle ups and and
was it toast a bar? 

583
00:25:34,480 --> 00:25:36,000
Are they the hardest moves to 
master? 

584
00:25:36,280 --> 00:25:39,440
Muscle ups are considered the 
snatch of the gymnastic moves. 

585
00:25:39,440 --> 00:25:42,800
You know just your standard 
muscle UPS as a rule textbook 

586
00:25:42,800 --> 00:25:45,000
that you. 
We're told that ring muscle UPS 

587
00:25:45,000 --> 00:25:46,720
are easier. 
That didn't work with me. 

588
00:25:47,320 --> 00:25:48,920
Bar muscle ups came easier to 
me. 

589
00:25:49,800 --> 00:25:54,320
So and but Toto bars are should 
not be a hard move to master. 

590
00:25:55,120 --> 00:25:59,360
What is hard to master is the 
preliminary move for a Toto bar 

591
00:25:59,360 --> 00:26:01,960
as well as a, a kipping or a 
butterfly pull up. 

592
00:26:02,160 --> 00:26:03,720
And that's the kipping move in 
itself. 

593
00:26:04,240 --> 00:26:06,760
So people can do toe to bars, 
they can bring their their toes 

594
00:26:06,760 --> 00:26:09,000
from the floor to the bar or at 
least toe to target. 

595
00:26:09,280 --> 00:26:12,720
The problem is recycling them 
and getting the Kip in action 

596
00:26:12,720 --> 00:26:15,440
the way it should because most 
people lose the shoulders. 

597
00:26:15,520 --> 00:26:18,400
You know, 10-12 years ago when 
they went through the went 

598
00:26:18,400 --> 00:26:21,000
through the courses and taught 
the coaches, you know, they said

599
00:26:21,000 --> 00:26:23,360
initiate with the shoulders. 
The problem with that is you 

600
00:26:23,360 --> 00:26:26,640
made a pendulum effect with the 
feet and that was changed later 

601
00:26:26,640 --> 00:26:29,440
on in the gymnastics class to 
where you want to move with the 

602
00:26:29,440 --> 00:26:31,000
course. 
You want to try to take your rib

603
00:26:31,000 --> 00:26:34,000
cage and your pelvis and shorten
that distance to create that 

604
00:26:34,000 --> 00:26:36,800
hollow hold position, and then 
you go into that back arch 

605
00:26:36,800 --> 00:26:38,480
position. 
But you want active shoulders 

606
00:26:38,480 --> 00:26:40,800
the whole time. 
So I want you want to strengthen

607
00:26:40,800 --> 00:26:44,560
the scapulas, be able to detract
the scapulas down, hold that 

608
00:26:44,560 --> 00:26:47,440
position of active shoulders, 
initiate everything from the 

609
00:26:47,440 --> 00:26:49,280
core and move that Kippy 
movement. 

610
00:26:49,280 --> 00:26:50,920
And that's going to get you the 
toe to bars. 

611
00:26:51,160 --> 00:26:53,920
Again, anybody can bring their 
toe to the bar, but it's 

612
00:26:53,920 --> 00:26:55,800
recycling them. 
So I don't think it's the 

613
00:26:55,800 --> 00:26:58,040
hardest to master. 
It's the Kippy movement in 

614
00:26:58,040 --> 00:26:59,520
there. 
That's the that's the issue that

615
00:26:59,520 --> 00:27:00,880
most people struggle with. 
What's? 

616
00:27:00,880 --> 00:27:02,800
The biggest mistake you see 
people making? 

617
00:27:02,800 --> 00:27:04,840
Then lose. 
The shoulders, they go soft in 

618
00:27:04,840 --> 00:27:07,400
the shoulders go soft so. 
You just hang in essentially 

619
00:27:07,400 --> 00:27:10,000
then. 
Yeah, so when you're dead hang, 

620
00:27:10,000 --> 00:27:12,160
you turn the chains off, the 
anterior posterior chains off, 

621
00:27:12,160 --> 00:27:14,720
you can't control the movement 
and you basically turn into 

622
00:27:14,720 --> 00:27:17,320
opinion like on a like on a 
clock, a grandfather clock. 

623
00:27:17,320 --> 00:27:20,560
And so I tell people, the minute
you lose your shoulders, drop 

624
00:27:20,560 --> 00:27:23,120
down, shake it out, get back 
down, get back up there again. 

625
00:27:23,200 --> 00:27:25,880
You know, you just got to 
restart, reset the the mindset 

626
00:27:26,040 --> 00:27:28,240
and the momentum for it. 
That's the big thing. 

627
00:27:29,040 --> 00:27:30,720
What do people get wrong about 
discipline? 

628
00:27:32,760 --> 00:27:36,320
They assume they're disciplined.
If you were to ask the average 

629
00:27:36,320 --> 00:27:38,960
Joe on the street today, are you
disciplined, they would quickly 

630
00:27:38,960 --> 00:27:41,000
say yes. 
And one of the reasons they 

631
00:27:41,000 --> 00:27:43,160
would quickly say yes because 
they've never been asked that 

632
00:27:43,160 --> 00:27:48,680
question, number one. 
Number two, our default in our 

633
00:27:48,680 --> 00:27:51,080
life when someone asks a 
question typically is to say 

634
00:27:51,080 --> 00:27:53,320
yes. 
You know, when it's a question 

635
00:27:53,320 --> 00:27:55,280
such as that, especially in a 
positive mindset. 

636
00:27:55,680 --> 00:27:58,560
So people assume they are 
disciplined, but the issue is 

637
00:27:58,560 --> 00:28:01,320
when you begin to look at their 
life and what I use the word 

638
00:28:01,320 --> 00:28:04,520
defaults, I spoke about this the
other day in the, in the, the 

639
00:28:04,520 --> 00:28:08,360
videos, our defaults is what we 
do when no one looks. 

640
00:28:08,440 --> 00:28:12,160
So we default to who and what we
truly are behind closed doors. 

641
00:28:12,200 --> 00:28:14,080
OK. 
And that's where discipline is 

642
00:28:14,080 --> 00:28:15,800
really, really, really and truly
tested. 

643
00:28:16,280 --> 00:28:19,120
The simple definition of 
discipline is doing the things 

644
00:28:19,120 --> 00:28:22,240
that you don't want to do to 
reach the goals that you set and

645
00:28:22,240 --> 00:28:24,960
not doing the things you want to
do in order to reach those goals

646
00:28:24,960 --> 00:28:26,640
you desire. 
That's what the simple 

647
00:28:26,640 --> 00:28:29,800
definition, if you can do that, 
if you can master that, all the 

648
00:28:29,800 --> 00:28:33,000
talent in the world will not 
replace discipline in our life. 

649
00:28:33,280 --> 00:28:36,480
It's saying no more than it is 
saying yes, and it is bringing 

650
00:28:36,480 --> 00:28:38,880
your body into subjection. 
That's another Bible verse 

651
00:28:38,880 --> 00:28:42,160
there, it bringing the body into
subjection so that the mind 

652
00:28:42,280 --> 00:28:44,000
can't adapt to where you need to
be. 

653
00:28:44,560 --> 00:28:47,880
Most people think old dogs can't
be taught new tricks and that's 

654
00:28:47,880 --> 00:28:50,520
not true. 
Neuroplasticity has proven that 

655
00:28:50,520 --> 00:28:53,160
not only can we increase the 
Gray matter, but we can relearn 

656
00:28:53,160 --> 00:28:56,360
and re adapt in our life. 
So it's making those those 

657
00:28:56,360 --> 00:29:00,400
needed decisions and choices in 
our life in order to reach that 

658
00:29:00,400 --> 00:29:02,200
goal. 
And that's where discipline is. 

659
00:29:02,200 --> 00:29:04,840
That one mistake is people 
assuming they have it, but when 

660
00:29:04,840 --> 00:29:07,600
they're tested in the mist 
behind closed doors, they'll go 

661
00:29:07,600 --> 00:29:09,720
to the bag of crisp before 
they'll go to the pack of 

662
00:29:09,720 --> 00:29:12,000
chicken to prep it because it's 
quick and it's easy. 

663
00:29:12,760 --> 00:29:15,560
That's not discipline. 
Discipline is throwing the crisp

664
00:29:15,560 --> 00:29:18,520
in the rubbish bin, getting the 
chicken out, prep it, cook it, 

665
00:29:18,640 --> 00:29:22,000
20 minutes later have your meal.
That's discipline does. 

666
00:29:22,000 --> 00:29:24,520
That come down to accountability
then, because if you had someone

667
00:29:24,520 --> 00:29:27,440
there watching you, you'd go 
like, if you had BJ in your 

668
00:29:27,440 --> 00:29:31,000
kitchen and I went for the 
crisps and I saw you, I'd be 

669
00:29:31,000 --> 00:29:33,480
like, all right, yeah, no, BJI 
was just putting them away. 

670
00:29:33,480 --> 00:29:35,640
I'll go and get the chicken. 
But once you walk out those 

671
00:29:35,640 --> 00:29:39,360
doors and it's down to me. 
So is accountability a big part 

672
00:29:39,360 --> 00:29:41,520
of discipline, Billy? 
'S a big part if you have 

673
00:29:41,520 --> 00:29:43,120
somebody that can be accountable
for you. 

674
00:29:43,160 --> 00:29:45,080
OK, that goes back again to that
default. 

675
00:29:45,080 --> 00:29:47,120
We default to who and what we 
are behind closed doors. 

676
00:29:47,360 --> 00:29:49,720
There's a guy called DL Moody 
who said that character is what 

677
00:29:49,720 --> 00:29:51,880
a man does in the dark. 
And that's what our our 

678
00:29:51,880 --> 00:29:53,640
character is truly, truly 
tested. 

679
00:29:54,200 --> 00:29:57,640
Little things in life, I think 
improves our discipline. 

680
00:29:57,640 --> 00:30:00,880
I'm a big advocate. 
Maybe you've seen this on the 

681
00:30:00,880 --> 00:30:03,960
videos. 
I think the trolley, the trolley

682
00:30:03,960 --> 00:30:07,000
at the grocery store, that's a 
test of a person's character. 

683
00:30:07,520 --> 00:30:09,360
Are you going to walk it back in
the middle of the rain and put 

684
00:30:09,360 --> 00:30:10,960
it back where it needs to go? 
Or are you going to leave it in 

685
00:30:10,960 --> 00:30:12,880
the car park for someone else to
do? 

686
00:30:13,080 --> 00:30:16,320
For someone else to give 
discipline says, you know what? 

687
00:30:16,440 --> 00:30:18,800
This is my trolley. 
I've taken this, I've used this.

688
00:30:18,800 --> 00:30:20,400
I'm going to go put it back 
where it needs to go. 

689
00:30:20,600 --> 00:30:22,160
I'm not going to leave it for 
someone else. 

690
00:30:22,160 --> 00:30:23,880
It's no different than re 
racking the weights of the gym 

691
00:30:23,880 --> 00:30:25,160
and putting things back where 
they go. 

692
00:30:25,840 --> 00:30:27,680
That's the true test of a 
person's character. 

693
00:30:27,680 --> 00:30:31,080
Anyone who leaves the trolley in
the in the car park and who who 

694
00:30:31,080 --> 00:30:33,080
doesn't re rack their weights 
and leaves things out. 

695
00:30:33,560 --> 00:30:36,320
They have an entitled mindset. 
Scumbags BJ. 

696
00:30:36,640 --> 00:30:39,640
The Scumbags BJ. 
You're Hey, Yeah. 

697
00:30:40,000 --> 00:30:41,560
There you go. 
You're saying what's in my mind?

698
00:30:41,560 --> 00:30:42,520
I didn't. 
I didn't want to drop. 

699
00:30:42,520 --> 00:30:43,600
I'll. 
Say it for you drives. 

700
00:30:43,600 --> 00:30:45,320
Me, absolutely. 
You know, bonkers. 

701
00:30:45,320 --> 00:30:47,360
It does. 
Because I believe, you know, if 

702
00:30:47,360 --> 00:30:49,480
you take it, put it back, if you
open it, close it, everything 

703
00:30:49,480 --> 00:30:50,840
has a place. 
There's a place for everything. 

704
00:30:51,160 --> 00:30:52,880
But that's that test for 
discipline right there. 

705
00:30:52,880 --> 00:30:54,320
It's what you do when no one's 
watching. 

706
00:30:54,360 --> 00:30:56,720
OK. 
And so accountability is a great

707
00:30:56,720 --> 00:30:58,200
deal. 
We, we actually, you mentioned 

708
00:30:58,200 --> 00:31:01,320
challenge earlier. 
My first book is called Renewed 

709
00:31:01,360 --> 00:31:02,960
and it's a transformational 
challenge. 

710
00:31:02,960 --> 00:31:06,840
It's based on a 66 day challenge
of four areas in your life and 

711
00:31:06,840 --> 00:31:09,480
that's mental discipline, 
emotional stability, physical 

712
00:31:09,480 --> 00:31:10,640
well-being and spiritual 
strength. 

713
00:31:10,640 --> 00:31:13,960
And you choose one area in those
four categories and you work on 

714
00:31:13,960 --> 00:31:16,200
it for 66 days. 
In the early days when we 

715
00:31:16,200 --> 00:31:19,600
started doing these, we have 
accountability partners, OK. 

716
00:31:19,960 --> 00:31:21,640
And so every single day I had to
chat. 

717
00:31:21,680 --> 00:31:24,200
If you and I were partners at 
the end of the day, I will send 

718
00:31:24,200 --> 00:31:26,040
you a list of what my 4 
categories are. 

719
00:31:26,080 --> 00:31:28,680
And I'd have a tick mark or an X
mark on there whether I hit it. 

720
00:31:29,040 --> 00:31:31,320
And when you're going through 
the day, I know I got to take, I

721
00:31:31,320 --> 00:31:34,000
got to text Harry tonight. 
I got to let him know, man, and 

722
00:31:34,000 --> 00:31:36,640
I don't want that red X there. 
I want that green tick box, you 

723
00:31:36,640 --> 00:31:39,240
know? 
And so those things help, but 

724
00:31:39,240 --> 00:31:43,320
the reality is on day 6768 and 
69, if you're truly transformed,

725
00:31:43,320 --> 00:31:46,440
you're going to do that without 
having to check in with Terry. 

726
00:31:46,440 --> 00:31:48,920
So yes, accountability is a big,
big key. 

727
00:31:49,280 --> 00:31:51,600
There's going to be a time when 
you're eventually going to have 

728
00:31:51,600 --> 00:31:54,360
to put your big boy trousers on 
and you got to do it yourself. 

729
00:31:54,360 --> 00:31:56,760
You got to be disciplined, you 
got to make that difference 

730
00:31:56,760 --> 00:31:59,800
because you want to be better 
today than you were yesterday. 

731
00:31:59,800 --> 00:32:03,120
And that's the simple, simple 
answer to the whole thing is 

732
00:32:03,120 --> 00:32:04,800
work the problem, what's the 
problem? 

733
00:32:05,640 --> 00:32:07,160
We're the problem. 
I'm the problem. 

734
00:32:07,160 --> 00:32:10,840
So I need to make myself better 
without Denise or Terry or 

735
00:32:10,840 --> 00:32:13,760
whoever looking after me. 
I want to make it better here 

736
00:32:13,760 --> 00:32:15,200
today. 
And that's where discipline 

737
00:32:15,200 --> 00:32:16,400
falls into line. 
That's. 

738
00:32:16,400 --> 00:32:19,360
True, because I would say I'm 
not a discipline person. 

739
00:32:19,640 --> 00:32:22,280
I'm not. 
I am absolutely terrible, but 

740
00:32:22,280 --> 00:32:25,600
what, how I counteract that 
because I, I know I'm not, is I 

741
00:32:25,600 --> 00:32:30,320
set my environment up so I don't
have those weaknesses or, or I 

742
00:32:30,320 --> 00:32:35,200
make it easy to keep to my 
schedule or what I've planned 

743
00:32:35,200 --> 00:32:39,760
doing, or I make it hard to not 
do the bad things. 

744
00:32:39,760 --> 00:32:42,760
Does that make sense? 
So for example, chocolate crisps

745
00:32:42,760 --> 00:32:44,640
in the house, we just don't buy 
it. 

746
00:32:45,080 --> 00:32:47,880
We just don't buy it. 
So how, how much would be sort 

747
00:32:47,880 --> 00:32:50,880
of setting up your environment? 
If, if, if we're not 

748
00:32:50,880 --> 00:32:53,040
disciplined, is that the first 
place to go? 

749
00:32:53,560 --> 00:32:58,600
Just take temptation away. 
I'll tell you what, my dad asked

750
00:32:58,600 --> 00:33:00,960
me this when I was in uni. 
He said, B, how do you stay out 

751
00:33:00,960 --> 00:33:02,880
of a bar fight? 
You know what my answer was? 

752
00:33:03,200 --> 00:33:05,440
My answer was, ah, just be nice,
I'd be kind. 

753
00:33:05,440 --> 00:33:07,840
I do this, I do that. 
He goes, no, son, you stay out 

754
00:33:07,840 --> 00:33:09,960
of a bar. 
So you cut the head off where it

755
00:33:09,960 --> 00:33:12,120
is, you cut the head off where 
the problem is, and it's that 

756
00:33:12,120 --> 00:33:14,160
simple. 
So it's like, you know, if I, if

757
00:33:14,160 --> 00:33:17,080
I struggle with with the snack 
times, you know, that's the, and

758
00:33:17,080 --> 00:33:19,360
we all do. 
I mean, here's The thing is none

759
00:33:19,360 --> 00:33:21,960
of us, you know, we look at 
these athletes today and we look

760
00:33:21,960 --> 00:33:25,400
at people who have, you know, 
they got they're what we want to

761
00:33:25,400 --> 00:33:28,280
be say, you know, we look at 
these people and you know, I 

762
00:33:28,280 --> 00:33:30,080
can't, you know, I want to be 
like that when I'm that old. 

763
00:33:30,080 --> 00:33:32,160
I mean, I want to, you know, I 
want to, I want to be strong. 

764
00:33:32,160 --> 00:33:35,760
I want to do this well. 
They struggle with the same 

765
00:33:35,760 --> 00:33:39,320
things that everybody else does.
So the perfect thing that you 

766
00:33:39,320 --> 00:33:41,200
said is you set the environment 
in order. 

767
00:33:42,720 --> 00:33:44,560
I don't want to eat the crisp. 
Therefore I don't buy the crisp.

768
00:33:44,560 --> 00:33:46,920
I don't want to eat the biscuits
that we don't buy the biscuits. 

769
00:33:46,920 --> 00:33:48,640
I don't, I'm not a soda drinker 
anyway. 

770
00:33:48,640 --> 00:33:50,400
So it's really, that's not a 
temptation for me. 

771
00:33:50,960 --> 00:33:53,360
I, I literally drink water and 
coffee and electrolytes. 

772
00:33:53,360 --> 00:33:55,040
That's, that's it. 
So, and that's, that's a 

773
00:33:55,040 --> 00:33:56,200
blessing. 
I take that on. 

774
00:33:56,520 --> 00:33:58,240
I don't have a temptation to 
drink alcohol. 

775
00:33:58,240 --> 00:34:00,760
I don't have a temptation to 
drink soda, none of those 

776
00:34:00,760 --> 00:34:02,440
things. 
So that's a huge help for me. 

777
00:34:02,440 --> 00:34:04,760
Some people do they have that 
temptation, they like it, they 

778
00:34:04,760 --> 00:34:06,760
want it. 
Just don't buy it. 

779
00:34:07,040 --> 00:34:09,679
You know, that's the simple, you
know, and you say, well, but I'm

780
00:34:09,679 --> 00:34:11,360
walking down the aisle, don't 
walk down the aisle. 

781
00:34:11,719 --> 00:34:14,320
You know, so everything that you
can do is exactly what you said 

782
00:34:14,320 --> 00:34:17,159
as you control the environment 
because you're at the end of the

783
00:34:17,159 --> 00:34:19,719
day, you're the human. 
You control where you are. 

784
00:34:19,760 --> 00:34:23,639
And most of our life and our 
much of our life is a result of 

785
00:34:23,639 --> 00:34:26,440
reactions that we have cost and 
consequences. 

786
00:34:26,440 --> 00:34:28,800
All the all come from a choice 
that we make. 

787
00:34:29,199 --> 00:34:31,520
And we can choose that aisle 
over there, the crisp and the 

788
00:34:31,520 --> 00:34:33,760
snacks and this and that, or we 
can choose the aisle over there 

789
00:34:33,760 --> 00:34:36,480
with a steak and the chicken in 
there and the fruit and the veg.

790
00:34:37,320 --> 00:34:42,080
That comes down to choices. 
Second thing on that is taken 

791
00:34:42,080 --> 00:34:45,120
the proper channels to maintain 
those choices. 

792
00:34:45,679 --> 00:34:47,520
I work every day off the tick 
box. 

793
00:34:47,520 --> 00:34:50,600
So I'm I'm, I'm very 
disciplined. 

794
00:34:52,280 --> 00:34:54,679
My life is ordered by my day 
timer. 

795
00:34:54,679 --> 00:34:56,920
You know, it's like when you and
I talked about booking this in, 

796
00:34:57,080 --> 00:34:59,400
I put you in the book there, you
aren't, you're locked in. 

797
00:34:59,400 --> 00:35:01,560
Here we go. 
You know, my appointment before 

798
00:35:01,560 --> 00:35:02,960
that was here, my morning was 
here. 

799
00:35:03,320 --> 00:35:06,840
Everything has a tick box and I 
prioritize my week based upon 

800
00:35:06,840 --> 00:35:09,000
urgency, emergency, and 
importance. 

801
00:35:09,480 --> 00:35:11,120
So what has to be done on 
Monday? 

802
00:35:11,280 --> 00:35:13,880
There it is on Monday. 
What has to be done on Tuesday? 

803
00:35:13,880 --> 00:35:17,040
So if I have 60 things to do, 
which is typical in a given 

804
00:35:17,040 --> 00:35:22,040
week, just because I finish at 3
and not 5 on a Monday with the 

805
00:35:22,040 --> 00:35:23,920
list I have, it doesn't mean I 
borrow from Tuesday. 

806
00:35:24,440 --> 00:35:27,960
See, discipline also is not 
doing things as well as doing 

807
00:35:27,960 --> 00:35:30,320
them, you see, I'm saying, and I
break it upon there. 

808
00:35:30,320 --> 00:35:32,640
That way you stay mentally 
aware, you stay, you know, 

809
00:35:32,640 --> 00:35:34,320
physically aware, you're 
emotionally aware, and you're 

810
00:35:34,400 --> 00:35:35,960
keeping that mental discipline 
where it belongs. 

811
00:35:35,960 --> 00:35:38,920
And that's driving the bus. 
Yeah, you also, you've earned 

812
00:35:38,920 --> 00:35:40,640
that rest. 
Then you're not filling up that 

813
00:35:40,640 --> 00:35:42,800
rest time with tasks from 
Tuesday. 

814
00:35:43,040 --> 00:35:45,480
You've earned that rest and you 
can actually enjoy that rest and

815
00:35:45,520 --> 00:35:46,720
a little pat on the back for 
you. 

816
00:35:46,920 --> 00:35:48,840
Absolutely. 
It's, I just want to mention 

817
00:35:48,840 --> 00:35:50,920
actually, because So what did 
your father say to you said, 

818
00:35:51,000 --> 00:35:52,760
what's the best way to stay out 
of the bar fight? 

819
00:35:53,440 --> 00:35:55,440
Stay out the bar. 
Do you know what my father said 

820
00:35:55,440 --> 00:35:56,920
to me when I started going to 
the pubs? 

821
00:35:57,360 --> 00:35:59,960
He said I think I started going 
up when I was about 16. 

822
00:35:59,960 --> 00:36:02,160
It's been naughty in the UK, you
know, you've got to be 18. 

823
00:36:02,480 --> 00:36:06,240
And he said if you think you're 
old enough to go up the pub then

824
00:36:06,240 --> 00:36:07,680
you're old enough to get punched
in the face. 

825
00:36:08,600 --> 00:36:10,480
Wise words, very. 
Wise words, yeah. 

826
00:36:10,480 --> 00:36:11,480
What's? 
Wise words at least. 

827
00:36:11,480 --> 00:36:13,680
You knew what to expect, right? 
It's the risks I like. 

828
00:36:13,680 --> 00:36:15,080
I knew the risks. 
I just thought it was quite 

829
00:36:15,080 --> 00:36:17,040
funny because they are both on 
the opposite the ends of the 

830
00:36:17,040 --> 00:36:18,880
spectrum. 
There's 22 areas of advice 

831
00:36:18,880 --> 00:36:19,520
there. 
It's funny. 

832
00:36:21,120 --> 00:36:25,440
What does being tough but when? 
When does being tough become a 

833
00:36:25,440 --> 00:36:27,840
cover for avoiding deeper 
issues? 

834
00:36:28,080 --> 00:36:29,640
That's great. 
That's a great question. 

835
00:36:30,000 --> 00:36:32,760
That's a deep question. 
This is actually something that 

836
00:36:32,760 --> 00:36:34,880
I'm dealing with with a couple 
of people right now and some 

837
00:36:34,880 --> 00:36:38,200
counseling sessions that the 
ego, that bravado is on the 

838
00:36:38,200 --> 00:36:40,960
outside. 
Now I want to throw a disclaimer

839
00:36:40,960 --> 00:36:45,080
out there. 
We are bombarded today with 

840
00:36:45,920 --> 00:36:49,760
pseudo masculinity. 
The louder I can be, the more 

841
00:36:49,760 --> 00:36:52,920
women I can do that I can tag. 
The more, you know, there's a 

842
00:36:52,920 --> 00:36:54,320
group of guys, I'm not going to 
name names. 

843
00:36:54,320 --> 00:36:57,800
There's a group of guys today 
that are that have all the media

844
00:36:57,800 --> 00:36:59,720
in the world, they have all the 
attention in the world and 

845
00:36:59,720 --> 00:37:01,000
they're teaching these young 
blokes. 

846
00:37:01,000 --> 00:37:03,480
They're teaching these guys this
is the way to be. 

847
00:37:03,560 --> 00:37:07,320
This is this is manhood, this is
masculine and this is not OK, 

848
00:37:07,600 --> 00:37:11,680
not at all. 
This is the masculinity, the 

849
00:37:11,680 --> 00:37:16,800
toughness behind deeper issues. 
So often times what you find was

850
00:37:16,800 --> 00:37:20,440
someone who has that swollen 
ego, they're hiding behind some 

851
00:37:20,440 --> 00:37:22,600
hurt and some trauma in their 
life. 

852
00:37:22,600 --> 00:37:24,840
And what they're doing is 
they're not just 

853
00:37:24,840 --> 00:37:26,840
compartmentalizing it, but 
they're pressing it down. 

854
00:37:26,840 --> 00:37:28,640
They're being taught push it 
down, push it down, push it 

855
00:37:28,640 --> 00:37:30,560
down. 
There is a time in a place when 

856
00:37:30,560 --> 00:37:32,840
we push those things down. 
But there is also a time in a 

857
00:37:32,840 --> 00:37:35,840
place to where we come together 
with another man. 

858
00:37:35,840 --> 00:37:38,920
As the Bible tells us, OK, iron 
sharpeneth iron. 

859
00:37:38,920 --> 00:37:41,240
So does a man sharpen the 
counteness of his friend. 

860
00:37:41,320 --> 00:37:44,120
OK, we all need that one guy. 
All right? 

861
00:37:44,120 --> 00:37:46,760
We need that one guy. 
I was told by a wise man that if

862
00:37:46,760 --> 00:37:49,920
you die and you, you can fill 
one hand with true friends, that

863
00:37:49,920 --> 00:37:52,880
you die a wealthy man. 
But we need that one man in our 

864
00:37:52,880 --> 00:37:56,920
life that we can sit down and 
say, listen, here's my issue, 

865
00:37:56,920 --> 00:37:59,080
this is where I am. 
And if you shed tears, you shed 

866
00:37:59,080 --> 00:38:01,440
tears. 
There's nothing anti masculine 

867
00:38:01,440 --> 00:38:03,520
about shedding a tear. 
You see what I'm saying? 

868
00:38:04,000 --> 00:38:07,840
So when we look at that 
toughness that people are, that 

869
00:38:07,840 --> 00:38:10,680
loudness and that toughness and 
this and that, and they're 

870
00:38:10,680 --> 00:38:12,560
hiding behind it, that's the 
issue. 

871
00:38:12,560 --> 00:38:13,960
They're trying to cover 
something up. 

872
00:38:13,960 --> 00:38:17,000
Now you got to dig sometimes, 
you know, that comes back to 

873
00:38:17,000 --> 00:38:19,360
what you mentioned just a moment
ago about your children. 

874
00:38:19,480 --> 00:38:21,000
It's being present. 
OK. 

875
00:38:21,720 --> 00:38:24,120
So do I believe men should be 
tough? 

876
00:38:24,120 --> 00:38:26,360
Yeah, we should. 
Do I think we should be 

877
00:38:26,840 --> 00:38:28,560
protective of our homes and our 
family? 

878
00:38:28,560 --> 00:38:30,960
Most certainly. 
Should we provide for them? 

879
00:38:31,120 --> 00:38:33,120
Absolutely. 
That's our role in our job. 

880
00:38:33,600 --> 00:38:36,080
As a matter of fact, Ephesians 5
tells us as the man that we are 

881
00:38:36,080 --> 00:38:39,760
to be the sacrificial position 
in the home, give himself just 

882
00:38:39,760 --> 00:38:42,640
as Jesus gave himself for the 
church, we are to give ourselves

883
00:38:42,640 --> 00:38:46,240
for our wife, OK, my role in the
home is sacrifice, all right. 

884
00:38:46,240 --> 00:38:49,000
And I'll do whatever needs to be
done in our house to make sure 

885
00:38:49,000 --> 00:38:51,240
it's protected, to make sure it 
grows and make sure it develops 

886
00:38:51,560 --> 00:38:53,040
and and it is what it needs to 
be. 

887
00:38:53,040 --> 00:38:55,600
The foundation is strong. 
The Bible calls it the 

888
00:38:55,600 --> 00:38:58,600
strongman. 
So that toughness sometimes 

889
00:38:58,600 --> 00:39:03,200
being hidden behind or hiding 
what is behind the issues over 

890
00:39:03,200 --> 00:39:06,080
here has to be peeled away, but 
it can only be peeled away by 

891
00:39:06,080 --> 00:39:09,240
being present and understanding 
where people are today. 

892
00:39:09,680 --> 00:39:11,400
And that's going to that's just 
going to come by building a 

893
00:39:11,400 --> 00:39:13,360
relationship. 
And that's where that is. 

894
00:39:13,360 --> 00:39:15,360
And that's, I don't know, I'm 
hoping I'm answering your 

895
00:39:15,360 --> 00:39:17,800
question because you the 
question was, you know, when 

896
00:39:17,800 --> 00:39:21,240
does toughness become a facade 
for deeper issues? 

897
00:39:21,600 --> 00:39:25,000
I think it quite often does. 
But there's some telltale signs 

898
00:39:25,000 --> 00:39:27,240
that you find, you know, when 
you ask a question. 

899
00:39:27,240 --> 00:39:29,160
So I really quickly deflects 
that. 

900
00:39:29,600 --> 00:39:32,480
So those who their go to is 
deflection. 

901
00:39:32,680 --> 00:39:34,360
There's a deeper problem that's 
there. 

902
00:39:34,360 --> 00:39:38,040
There's a deeper issue that is 
that is that's going on when 

903
00:39:38,040 --> 00:39:40,920
they direct your statement or 
your question or just a 

904
00:39:40,920 --> 00:39:42,800
conversation toward other 
people. 

905
00:39:43,360 --> 00:39:46,120
If you keep an eye out of people
who's always kind of a critical 

906
00:39:46,120 --> 00:39:50,280
eye, always finding faults and 
problems in the surrounding 

907
00:39:50,280 --> 00:39:53,560
areas or other people's lives, 
there's a deeper issue that is 

908
00:39:53,560 --> 00:39:56,280
going on there and they're 
bringing that toughness or that 

909
00:39:56,280 --> 00:39:59,360
hypocritical, that hypocritical 
ideology. 

910
00:39:59,560 --> 00:40:02,840
They're bringing that out into 
people's mind to try to hide 

911
00:40:02,840 --> 00:40:04,640
what they're dealing with. 
I like that. 

912
00:40:04,640 --> 00:40:08,120
So is is this deflecting that 
you're seeing this? 

913
00:40:08,320 --> 00:40:10,280
Don't look at me, look at that 
guy over there. 

914
00:40:10,800 --> 00:40:13,600
So is it something that you 
can't see when you're in it, 

915
00:40:14,160 --> 00:40:16,360
they do have to rely on other 
people to see it, or is it 

916
00:40:16,360 --> 00:40:18,600
something you can see and 
recognize within yourself? 

917
00:40:18,640 --> 00:40:20,440
And if so, how would you do that
so? 

918
00:40:20,440 --> 00:40:22,160
Denial. 
Denial is where you are. 

919
00:40:22,160 --> 00:40:25,000
What you're talking about, 
denials is a massive, massive 

920
00:40:25,000 --> 00:40:27,680
area in the neurological side of
our world. 

921
00:40:28,240 --> 00:40:31,600
So what denial tells you I'm 
good, man, You know, and that's 

922
00:40:31,600 --> 00:40:33,040
a lot of our answers. 
Say how things are going. 

923
00:40:33,040 --> 00:40:34,200
How are you doing? 
I'm good. 

924
00:40:34,400 --> 00:40:36,200
I'm good. 
And I say that all the time, you

925
00:40:36,200 --> 00:40:37,760
know, and nine times out of 10, 
I'm good. 

926
00:40:37,760 --> 00:40:40,200
You know, I just keep moving on.
It's not hiding anything. 

927
00:40:40,200 --> 00:40:41,480
But yeah, I'm good. 
I'm going. 

928
00:40:41,480 --> 00:40:47,480
I got the next thing to do, but 
denial will completely cause 

929
00:40:47,480 --> 00:40:51,520
your you to have a delusional 
view of where you really are and

930
00:40:51,520 --> 00:40:54,200
who you really are. 
We don't see it because that's 

931
00:40:54,200 --> 00:40:56,960
what denial's job is. 
Denial's job is to cover up what

932
00:40:56,960 --> 00:41:00,560
you basically need and you're 
covering it up by that pseudo 

933
00:41:00,560 --> 00:41:03,320
masculinity. 
And a lot of times you can't see

934
00:41:03,320 --> 00:41:06,440
it until it's brought out. 
Now here's a caveat of that. 

935
00:41:07,000 --> 00:41:11,640
Denial is always covering up 
something that is an action base

936
00:41:11,640 --> 00:41:16,600
or action first, behavioral 
action addiction if you will. 

937
00:41:16,600 --> 00:41:19,840
So whatever problem, whatever 
issue that's going on, whatever,

938
00:41:19,960 --> 00:41:22,040
whether it's a marital problem, 
a family problem, a work 

939
00:41:22,040 --> 00:41:26,280
problem, a personal problem, it 
is hidden down inside and denial

940
00:41:26,280 --> 00:41:28,560
saying, no, I'm good, I'm fine, 
I don't need to deal with this. 

941
00:41:28,560 --> 00:41:31,000
Let's just cover that up. 
Well, what's going on here is 

942
00:41:31,000 --> 00:41:35,480
the brain is literally changing 
to remove the lens of what is 

943
00:41:35,480 --> 00:41:38,680
truly going on and your focus on
everything else and you can't 

944
00:41:38,680 --> 00:41:40,680
see it. 
Somebody has to bring it up to 

945
00:41:40,680 --> 00:41:42,160
you. 
Somebody has to mention it to 

946
00:41:42,160 --> 00:41:44,760
you or at a given time, it has 
to break you. 

947
00:41:44,960 --> 00:41:47,120
And that's the problem it. 
Becomes your reality. 

948
00:41:47,440 --> 00:41:49,560
You actually change your your 
reality. 

949
00:41:49,560 --> 00:41:53,760
Perception is reality, and you, 
you're changing your brain so it

950
00:41:53,760 --> 00:41:56,760
becomes your reality, so it 
becomes your truth, so you 

951
00:41:56,760 --> 00:41:59,000
cannot see it when you're in it.
Yeah. 

952
00:41:59,400 --> 00:42:01,760
You really are. 
And and that's not an excuse. 

953
00:42:01,760 --> 00:42:03,640
That's not an excuse. 
Again, that's why you go back, 

954
00:42:03,640 --> 00:42:04,880
man. 
When you talk about connections 

955
00:42:04,880 --> 00:42:08,120
with healthy habits, healthy 
lifestyles, at least one guy, 

956
00:42:08,120 --> 00:42:10,040
you got to have that one guy 
that you can go to. 

957
00:42:10,200 --> 00:42:13,680
And I say this with myself. 
I say it in the gym as a Chapel.

958
00:42:13,680 --> 00:42:16,600
I say the church as a pastor. 
I say to my family as as a 

959
00:42:16,600 --> 00:42:19,520
leader in the home, as a 
husband, as a father, and I say 

960
00:42:19,520 --> 00:42:21,440
it to a friend, to whomever I'm 
around. 

961
00:42:21,440 --> 00:42:23,320
I'm like a good dog. 
I come when I'm called and I 

962
00:42:23,320 --> 00:42:26,560
mean that, you know, because, 
because here's the deal, Terry. 

963
00:42:26,560 --> 00:42:28,840
We have men that are hurting out
there today. 

964
00:42:29,160 --> 00:42:32,040
We've had an entire generation 
that was lost and they have this

965
00:42:32,040 --> 00:42:36,240
misconception of what manhood 
should be. 

966
00:42:36,280 --> 00:42:40,280
And it's because we're getting, 
we're inundated today by so many

967
00:42:40,280 --> 00:42:42,680
different perspectives of what 
it should or shouldn't be and 

968
00:42:42,680 --> 00:42:44,560
this and that. 
And, you know, and that's just 

969
00:42:44,560 --> 00:42:46,880
simply not true. 
It's just not true at all. 

970
00:42:46,880 --> 00:42:49,280
And we need somebody to have 
that perspective and go, hang 

971
00:42:49,280 --> 00:42:51,960
on, let's take a step back here.
Let's peel some layers off. 

972
00:42:51,960 --> 00:42:54,080
It's OK to be vulnerable. 
And then after we're finished 

973
00:42:54,080 --> 00:42:55,800
with this, we're going to be 
stronger, You're going to be 

974
00:42:55,800 --> 00:42:56,960
better. 
And we're going to take the 

975
00:42:56,960 --> 00:42:59,520
first, first step forward to 
improvement today. 

976
00:43:00,240 --> 00:43:01,520
Yeah. 
How? 

977
00:43:01,520 --> 00:43:04,520
Has being a coach helped you 
become a best, better pastor? 

978
00:43:05,160 --> 00:43:06,760
If I said that right, If I said 
pastor. 

979
00:43:07,720 --> 00:43:10,880
That's exactly right. 
So how has being a coach help 

980
00:43:10,880 --> 00:43:12,160
you become a better pastor? 
That's. 

981
00:43:12,160 --> 00:43:14,560
A great question. 
You know, 'cause in, in all 

982
00:43:14,560 --> 00:43:18,440
fairness, it should be reversed.
But I think it in all, I believe

983
00:43:18,440 --> 00:43:20,760
it has helped me. 
I pastored 12 years in the 

984
00:43:20,760 --> 00:43:22,280
States. 
In that period of time I 

985
00:43:22,280 --> 00:43:25,320
coached, I coached sports. 
I coached softball, baseball, 

986
00:43:25,320 --> 00:43:28,080
American football. 
It was Youngers, you know, I was

987
00:43:28,080 --> 00:43:31,640
involved in, in, in high school 
coaching a high school team at 

988
00:43:31,640 --> 00:43:33,360
one time. 
I was helping players here and 

989
00:43:33,360 --> 00:43:36,600
there, but being on the gym 
floor is a different perspective

990
00:43:36,600 --> 00:43:39,080
than coaching those teams. 
Still a leader in the community,

991
00:43:39,080 --> 00:43:41,480
still this and that. 
And I never really saw, I 

992
00:43:41,480 --> 00:43:44,120
thought then, to be honest with 
you, because I was the pastor, 

993
00:43:44,120 --> 00:43:47,600
because I, I was that man. 
And I, you know, I might, you 

994
00:43:47,600 --> 00:43:50,280
know, with compassion and you 
got to, you have to exercise 

995
00:43:50,280 --> 00:43:53,240
these things that it was helping
me to be a, a, a coach in the 

996
00:43:53,240 --> 00:43:58,160
field, come in here and coaching
here in, in this, in this 

997
00:43:58,160 --> 00:44:00,760
country and especially in Ion, 
which again, like I said, it's 

998
00:44:00,760 --> 00:44:02,160
just it's the greatest ship in 
the world. 

999
00:44:02,160 --> 00:44:06,760
It's home when you when you look
at it, I believe in all fairness

1000
00:44:06,760 --> 00:44:10,400
that coaching on the floor has 
improved my ability to pastor 

1001
00:44:10,400 --> 00:44:14,040
people. 
You have to be able to direct 

1002
00:44:14,040 --> 00:44:16,800
people and guide people and, and
see what their needs are, see 

1003
00:44:16,800 --> 00:44:20,360
what the shortcomings are, see 
where they need to improve, but 

1004
00:44:20,360 --> 00:44:22,840
at the same time see how they 
have improved and how well 

1005
00:44:22,840 --> 00:44:25,960
they're doing and what their 
their go to signs are. 

1006
00:44:26,720 --> 00:44:30,320
Coaching has improved that from 
looking at certain cues that we 

1007
00:44:30,320 --> 00:44:32,760
need to give to make this 
correction, that correction, you

1008
00:44:32,760 --> 00:44:35,520
know, a small little change 
here, intricate little changes, 

1009
00:44:35,520 --> 00:44:37,920
massive changes. 
But being involved with the 

1010
00:44:37,920 --> 00:44:40,240
people, not being afraid to go 
up to somebody who's brand new, 

1011
00:44:40,240 --> 00:44:41,640
say, hey, my name's BJ, what's 
your name? 

1012
00:44:41,640 --> 00:44:44,000
Hope you have a great day today.
If you need anything at all, you

1013
00:44:44,000 --> 00:44:46,040
just let me know. 
But then coming back around to 

1014
00:44:46,040 --> 00:44:47,960
following up with them, How does
the moose feel? 

1015
00:44:47,960 --> 00:44:50,040
How does this do? 
You're personally involved with 

1016
00:44:50,040 --> 00:44:53,040
the people and you're involved 
in a very intense manner as 

1017
00:44:53,040 --> 00:44:54,560
well. 
You know, somebody who know, 

1018
00:44:54,560 --> 00:44:57,080
when I'm on the gym floor, I'm a
fairly intense guy. 

1019
00:44:57,080 --> 00:44:59,280
Then I get into the pulpit, I 
get into the church, you know, 

1020
00:44:59,640 --> 00:45:02,760
and I am, I'm not that same guy.
But until I start preaching, 

1021
00:45:02,760 --> 00:45:04,720
then it gets a little bit 
exciting. 

1022
00:45:04,720 --> 00:45:08,280
You know, I'm, I'm not the, I'm 
not the moaning grown guy that, 

1023
00:45:08,280 --> 00:45:11,080
that by God's grace, I'll never 
be that guy on the gym or the 

1024
00:45:11,080 --> 00:45:14,360
pulpit, you know, but I'm not 
the happy clappy guy running 

1025
00:45:14,360 --> 00:45:15,520
around. 
I mean, it's, it's for me, 

1026
00:45:15,520 --> 00:45:18,520
everything's square and true. 
But I believe coaching has 

1027
00:45:18,520 --> 00:45:22,360
helped me interact with our 
people in the church and help 

1028
00:45:22,360 --> 00:45:26,680
them in ways that before I just 
assumed that I was helping. 

1029
00:45:27,000 --> 00:45:29,400
I think it opened up a door of 
vulnerability both on my part 

1030
00:45:29,400 --> 00:45:31,960
and their part coming from the 
gym floor into the pulpit. 

1031
00:45:31,960 --> 00:45:33,160
It's been great. 
Be honest with you. 

1032
00:45:33,320 --> 00:45:34,680
Yeah. 
Yeah, well, well, on the flip 

1033
00:45:34,680 --> 00:45:37,320
side, how's been a pastor helped
you become a better coach? 

1034
00:45:37,320 --> 00:45:39,000
Well, it's. 
Helped me though, because I'm 

1035
00:45:39,000 --> 00:45:41,480
not afraid to speak. 
Obviously you're learning that 

1036
00:45:41,480 --> 00:45:45,680
now, you know, so I'm not afraid
to walk up to somebody who I 

1037
00:45:45,680 --> 00:45:47,920
don't know, introduce myself, 
who I am. 

1038
00:45:48,200 --> 00:45:51,320
That comes from pastoring. 
You know, your normal pastor 

1039
00:45:51,320 --> 00:45:54,400
will walk around the church, 
walk around the church, shake 

1040
00:45:54,400 --> 00:45:57,160
hands, welcome everybody there. 
You always have to be hospitable

1041
00:45:57,160 --> 00:45:58,360
and that's actually a 
requirement. 

1042
00:45:58,360 --> 00:46:00,680
We ought to be hospitable 
apartment to teach, you know, 

1043
00:46:00,920 --> 00:46:03,640
servant Lord must be a litany of
different things. 

1044
00:46:04,840 --> 00:46:08,120
But I have, I have no quorums 
whatsoever walking up to whoever

1045
00:46:08,120 --> 00:46:10,600
it is, no matter what they look 
like, no matter what they've 

1046
00:46:10,600 --> 00:46:12,920
said or how they act. 
Shaking their hand, give them a 

1047
00:46:12,920 --> 00:46:15,360
fist bump, give them a hug. 
Introduce myself to them. 

1048
00:46:15,360 --> 00:46:18,120
Obviously afterwards give them a
hug after I introduce myself. 

1049
00:46:18,360 --> 00:46:20,040
But you know what I'm saying? 
I have no problems with that. 

1050
00:46:20,040 --> 00:46:22,920
That's how the ministerial side 
of it I think has helped me in 

1051
00:46:22,920 --> 00:46:25,600
coaching is there's just no 
reservation for me to go up to 

1052
00:46:25,600 --> 00:46:28,600
anybody and talk to them, which 
I think helps, you know, because

1053
00:46:29,280 --> 00:46:31,880
people have to be included. 
But also, like I said, I was a 

1054
00:46:31,880 --> 00:46:33,680
practitioner in the States, all 
right? 

1055
00:46:33,680 --> 00:46:37,200
So I was, you know, I was in 
prosthetics, orthotics for 20 

1056
00:46:37,200 --> 00:46:41,160
plus years with my practices. 
When I was a resident, I was, 

1057
00:46:41,160 --> 00:46:44,520
we, it was 100 miles an hour. 
I had 32 patients a lot of times

1058
00:46:44,520 --> 00:46:47,240
a day. 
Even as a, you know, years later

1059
00:46:47,240 --> 00:46:50,680
on, every time I went into that 
patient room, OK, they had to 

1060
00:46:50,680 --> 00:46:52,480
feel like they're the only one 
in the office. 

1061
00:46:52,560 --> 00:46:55,680
OK, When you're on the gym floor
and you're conversing with 

1062
00:46:55,680 --> 00:46:58,160
people and you're talking to 
them, that one person that I'm 

1063
00:46:58,160 --> 00:47:00,600
talking to, they need to feel 
like they're the only one in the

1064
00:47:00,600 --> 00:47:02,240
gym. 
And then the next one needs to 

1065
00:47:02,240 --> 00:47:04,080
feel the same way and the same 
way and the same way. 

1066
00:47:04,240 --> 00:47:06,840
Same thing in the church. 
When I sit there and I talk to 

1067
00:47:06,840 --> 00:47:09,200
our organist and she has a 
question to ask me or a prayer 

1068
00:47:09,200 --> 00:47:12,120
request, I need to focus on her 
and not be distracted by what's 

1069
00:47:12,120 --> 00:47:14,480
going on around me. 
All of those three things have 

1070
00:47:14,480 --> 00:47:17,840
complemented one another that I 
have found that even though 

1071
00:47:17,960 --> 00:47:20,240
there's a load of people around 
where there's 40 people in the 

1072
00:47:20,240 --> 00:47:24,440
class, 32 people on a patient 
list that day, or 30 some odd 

1073
00:47:24,440 --> 00:47:28,120
people in the church is you need
to focus on each individual one 

1074
00:47:28,120 --> 00:47:30,760
as if they are the only one 
there so you can help them and 

1075
00:47:30,760 --> 00:47:32,280
meet their needs at the present 
moment. 

1076
00:47:32,800 --> 00:47:33,800
What's? 
The importance of that. 

1077
00:47:34,320 --> 00:47:36,000
The importance of us make a 
difference in that day. 

1078
00:47:36,120 --> 00:47:40,120
We all need that every here, 
whether people like to admit 

1079
00:47:40,120 --> 00:47:42,240
this or not. 
People want two things. 

1080
00:47:42,600 --> 00:47:46,640
They want to feel important, OK 
or needed and they want to be 

1081
00:47:46,640 --> 00:47:49,440
heard. 
People want to be heard. 4 

1082
00:47:49,440 --> 00:47:52,800
characteristics that we see in 
people far as love goes, and I 

1083
00:47:52,800 --> 00:47:54,680
always characterize them as as 
animals. 

1084
00:47:54,720 --> 00:47:57,840
All right, you got the fish. 
The fish don't care to be 

1085
00:47:57,840 --> 00:47:59,320
touched. 
They don't want to be stroked. 

1086
00:47:59,320 --> 00:48:01,560
They don't want to be talked to.
They just want you to clean that

1087
00:48:01,560 --> 00:48:03,720
tank. 
That's all they want services, 

1088
00:48:03,760 --> 00:48:05,960
right? 
You got the cat, right? 

1089
00:48:06,120 --> 00:48:08,440
Cat wants to be fed when they 
want to be fed. 

1090
00:48:08,520 --> 00:48:10,120
All right? 
They don't care about you. 

1091
00:48:10,120 --> 00:48:11,960
They want to be stroked when 
it's on their dime. 

1092
00:48:11,960 --> 00:48:16,560
OK, so if they have needs, you 
got the you got the dog. 

1093
00:48:16,880 --> 00:48:19,240
The dog wants to be talked to. 
You know, you go home to your 

1094
00:48:19,240 --> 00:48:20,640
dog. 
You say, hey, boy, you're so, so

1095
00:48:20,640 --> 00:48:22,200
good to see you. 
And he's wagging his tail. 

1096
00:48:22,200 --> 00:48:24,560
He's excited. 
But then there's the Canary. 

1097
00:48:25,200 --> 00:48:27,680
And the Canary doesn't care who 
cleans their cage. 

1098
00:48:28,040 --> 00:48:29,560
Canary doesn't care who feeds 
them. 

1099
00:48:30,000 --> 00:48:31,520
The Canary doesn't want to 
listen to you. 

1100
00:48:32,200 --> 00:48:34,800
The Canary wants to sing. 
Canary wants to be heard. 

1101
00:48:35,240 --> 00:48:38,240
And I believe there's a quality 
in every single one of us in our

1102
00:48:38,240 --> 00:48:41,440
life today. 
We want to be needed and we want

1103
00:48:41,440 --> 00:48:45,280
to be heard, and that's the two 
things that people need to know 

1104
00:48:45,280 --> 00:48:47,680
that when they come to the gym 
floor, when they come to the 

1105
00:48:47,680 --> 00:48:50,360
patient room or they come to the
church, you're needed. 

1106
00:48:50,360 --> 00:48:52,640
You have worth. 
We love you and I want to hear 

1107
00:48:52,640 --> 00:48:55,720
what you have to say. 
I love that and I think it's so 

1108
00:48:55,720 --> 00:48:59,360
true. 
And with men and women, and I've

1109
00:48:59,360 --> 00:49:02,560
always said this about men is 
men always want to feel strong, 

1110
00:49:02,720 --> 00:49:05,800
capable and useful. 
And it just sort of aligns with 

1111
00:49:05,800 --> 00:49:08,080
what you're saying there. 
It's sort of being heard and 

1112
00:49:08,080 --> 00:49:10,680
sort of feeling important. 
And I think there's a there's a 

1113
00:49:10,680 --> 00:49:15,040
severe lack currently in it or 
people are lacking that feeling 

1114
00:49:15,040 --> 00:49:18,520
of importance and being valuable
and having that purpose. 

1115
00:49:19,040 --> 00:49:23,920
What do you feel that the modern
sort of self improvement world 

1116
00:49:24,080 --> 00:49:26,600
gets wrong nowadays? 
And what and what does it get 

1117
00:49:26,600 --> 00:49:28,440
right? 
What gets wrong? 

1118
00:49:28,440 --> 00:49:29,880
Now let me tell you what it gets
right. 

1119
00:49:30,120 --> 00:49:33,640
It has a great formula. 
The formula is tremendous. 

1120
00:49:33,640 --> 00:49:37,120
It really is. 
It's the formulas that it has 

1121
00:49:37,120 --> 00:49:40,360
about cutting things out in the 
daytime, cut in your day, 

1122
00:49:40,760 --> 00:49:43,840
improving your day, managing 
your time, creating good habits,

1123
00:49:43,840 --> 00:49:45,040
and all this. 
Even though some of things are 

1124
00:49:45,040 --> 00:49:48,440
built on facade, you know, you 
know, we've heard the, the gurus

1125
00:49:48,440 --> 00:49:50,120
get up 21 days to change your 
habit. 

1126
00:49:50,120 --> 00:49:52,120
That's neurologically 
impossible. 

1127
00:49:52,120 --> 00:49:56,080
It takes 66 days for the 
hormones to be produced to, to 

1128
00:49:56,080 --> 00:49:58,320
to actually increase a true 
habit and break another one. 

1129
00:49:58,960 --> 00:50:01,000
And and that's, that's a 
conversation probably for 

1130
00:50:01,000 --> 00:50:04,160
another time, but that it's, 
it's scientifically impossible 

1131
00:50:04,160 --> 00:50:07,800
for that. 
So the formula they have take 

1132
00:50:07,800 --> 00:50:10,520
action first, do this, make the 
changes in your life. 

1133
00:50:10,640 --> 00:50:13,240
That's great. 
What they get wrong is 

1134
00:50:13,240 --> 00:50:16,720
superficial, OK. 
And you know, it's, it's kind of

1135
00:50:16,720 --> 00:50:19,080
like some take out food, man. 
It takes really, really good 

1136
00:50:19,080 --> 00:50:21,120
going down. 
But then about 5 minutes later 

1137
00:50:21,280 --> 00:50:22,800
you're hungry again. 
You see what I'm saying? 

1138
00:50:23,240 --> 00:50:24,560
And so that's what happens with 
it. 

1139
00:50:24,600 --> 00:50:27,320
What they get wrong is that this
is going to work for you. 

1140
00:50:27,400 --> 00:50:29,840
This is how you do it. 
And they lay it out, but there's

1141
00:50:29,840 --> 00:50:31,800
no substance to it and it 
doesn't stick. 

1142
00:50:32,040 --> 00:50:34,320
So what happens? 
Well, book #2 comes out all 

1143
00:50:34,320 --> 00:50:35,760
right. 
Speech #2 comes out. 

1144
00:50:35,760 --> 00:50:39,680
Speech #3 you know, self help 
books are the leading selling 

1145
00:50:39,680 --> 00:50:42,880
books every single year. 
There's thousands of them 

1146
00:50:42,920 --> 00:50:45,720
reproduced every single year. 
Now I'm saying that being an 

1147
00:50:45,720 --> 00:50:48,760
author of a so-called self help 
book, it's not, it's a 

1148
00:50:49,080 --> 00:50:52,680
transformational book. 
But nonetheless, my second book 

1149
00:50:52,680 --> 00:50:55,760
is Be Where Your Feet Are, which
gives 10 principles of of living

1150
00:50:55,760 --> 00:51:00,280
in an unstable world based on 
statements that men have made to

1151
00:51:00,280 --> 00:51:02,960
me in my life over the course of
my formerly years. 

1152
00:51:04,000 --> 00:51:05,560
But I'm saying all that to make 
this point. 

1153
00:51:05,640 --> 00:51:09,600
What most people get wrong is 
it's all based on something of 

1154
00:51:09,680 --> 00:51:12,320
weak substance. 
And so it gets lost in the 

1155
00:51:12,320 --> 00:51:15,560
shuffle. 
So it works real well today and 

1156
00:51:15,560 --> 00:51:18,720
it works well tomorrow and it 
works well the next day, but 

1157
00:51:18,720 --> 00:51:21,760
there's no follow up principles.
The follow up principles is 

1158
00:51:21,760 --> 00:51:25,600
where most people within the 
self help world, that's where 

1159
00:51:25,600 --> 00:51:27,840
they fall short. 
Yes, they can say the right 

1160
00:51:27,840 --> 00:51:31,680
things here. 
It's what to do, but how to do 

1161
00:51:31,680 --> 00:51:34,240
it is where it gets lost. 
And that's the primary to sum 

1162
00:51:34,240 --> 00:51:37,920
the simple answer up, they give.
They do a great job in what they

1163
00:51:37,920 --> 00:51:40,920
do, a very polar job in how. 
And by the way, that wasn't a 

1164
00:51:40,920 --> 00:51:42,240
plug for my books. 
I'm sorry about that. 

1165
00:51:42,240 --> 00:51:44,960
No, I'll plug away, man. 
At the end I'll ask you about 

1166
00:51:44,960 --> 00:51:46,720
stuff. 
So absolutely plug away. 

1167
00:51:46,720 --> 00:51:48,440
Like you know, if you can get a 
couple of sales out of it, 

1168
00:51:48,440 --> 00:51:50,760
that's fantastic like. 
We have two more books coming 

1169
00:51:50,760 --> 00:51:53,120
out and it's here that's. 
Just I might pick one up. 

1170
00:51:53,120 --> 00:51:54,840
Actually, I'll pick one up 
definitely. 

1171
00:51:55,160 --> 00:51:58,280
That's 66 because it made sense 
when you said the 66 days change

1172
00:51:58,280 --> 00:51:58,920
of habit. 
I was that. 

1173
00:51:59,680 --> 00:52:01,600
That's why it's the 66 day 
challenge. 

1174
00:52:01,720 --> 00:52:03,400
See. 
My number, my college number is 

1175
00:52:03,400 --> 00:52:05,760
66. 
And yeah, so my college number 

1176
00:52:05,760 --> 00:52:09,040
was 66 and 66 books in the 
Bible. 

1177
00:52:09,040 --> 00:52:12,480
So somebody was like, yeah, I 
think you did this, you know. 

1178
00:52:12,840 --> 00:52:17,640
So technically, scientifically, 
it's 60 to 61 days. 

1179
00:52:17,640 --> 00:52:21,440
However, what I include is that 
first five days, that first 

1180
00:52:21,440 --> 00:52:24,720
week, when the, when it starts 
getting past the bumpy roads, 

1181
00:52:25,040 --> 00:52:28,280
that's why I say 66 days to make
that transformational change. 

1182
00:52:28,480 --> 00:52:30,880
And it works. 
See, when I was in uni, I was in

1183
00:52:30,880 --> 00:52:35,080
uni 3536 years ago, right? 
So, well, I was 19, I was 35 

1184
00:52:35,080 --> 00:52:37,520
years ago. 
I was still in uni then, but the

1185
00:52:37,520 --> 00:52:40,080
neuroplasticity studies were 
just beginning at that time. 

1186
00:52:40,200 --> 00:52:43,320
And man, look and they, they 
just come to completion the past

1187
00:52:43,320 --> 00:52:45,920
12 to 1418 months and it's 
phenomenal. 

1188
00:52:45,920 --> 00:52:48,800
Very same thing that we 
hypothesized back then has been 

1189
00:52:48,800 --> 00:52:52,600
proven that Gray matter can 
redevelop, brain structures can 

1190
00:52:52,840 --> 00:52:55,200
be reconstructed, you can 
relearn. 

1191
00:52:55,200 --> 00:52:59,680
You know the whole old, old dogs
new trick thing. 

1192
00:53:00,720 --> 00:53:02,360
Man, that ain't true at all. 
So. 

1193
00:53:02,720 --> 00:53:04,480
You said you were. 
Your background was in 

1194
00:53:04,520 --> 00:53:06,040
neuroscience. 
Was it neuroscience? 

1195
00:53:06,040 --> 00:53:07,240
Yeah. 
Neurological sciences with my 

1196
00:53:07,240 --> 00:53:08,760
bachelors degrees in So what? 
Did you? 

1197
00:53:08,760 --> 00:53:11,040
Yeah. 
You in You went to college, 

1198
00:53:11,160 --> 00:53:14,240
university and you studied the 
brain. 

1199
00:53:15,200 --> 00:53:16,760
Yeah, the brain and the body. 
Yeah, really. 

1200
00:53:16,760 --> 00:53:20,760
Actually, so you're fully 
qualified to actually talk about

1201
00:53:20,760 --> 00:53:23,680
this like in that like you know 
what you're on about like this. 

1202
00:53:23,680 --> 00:53:26,560
This isn't just you haven't, you
haven't heard this on a podcast.

1203
00:53:26,560 --> 00:53:27,680
No, no. 
No, no. 

1204
00:53:27,680 --> 00:53:30,360
But like I said, the beautiful 
part of it is the the beautiful 

1205
00:53:30,360 --> 00:53:32,160
part of us. 
We were on the front end. 

1206
00:53:32,160 --> 00:53:34,600
I mean, because one of my one of
my professors, a guy called 

1207
00:53:34,600 --> 00:53:36,480
Robert Sherlock, he was world 
renowned. 

1208
00:53:36,480 --> 00:53:39,560
I had no idea. 
I mean, this guy was the, he was

1209
00:53:39,560 --> 00:53:41,200
the smartest person ever met in 
my life. 

1210
00:53:41,200 --> 00:53:44,800
He could tell you every synapse,
every receptor site, every, 

1211
00:53:45,640 --> 00:53:49,960
every neurological code for what
you know, what drug, what I 

1212
00:53:49,960 --> 00:53:51,840
mean? 
It was he was so far above and 

1213
00:53:51,840 --> 00:53:54,120
beyond, you know, where we were.
It was unbelievable. 

1214
00:53:54,440 --> 00:53:56,320
And he couldn't sit down and 
have this conversation to save 

1215
00:53:56,320 --> 00:53:58,040
his life. 
I mean, the common sense wives 

1216
00:53:58,040 --> 00:54:00,560
was out the table, but he was 
brilliant. 

1217
00:54:00,560 --> 00:54:03,240
He was a brilliant guy. 
And he began that research back 

1218
00:54:03,240 --> 00:54:04,120
then. 
He's dead now. 

1219
00:54:04,120 --> 00:54:07,680
He's long gone, but he began 
that research and now you're 

1220
00:54:07,680 --> 00:54:10,280
starting to find all the 
neuroplasticity studies over the

1221
00:54:10,280 --> 00:54:15,440
last early 24 months. 
And to make Long story short, 

1222
00:54:15,440 --> 00:54:17,560
man, really science caught up 
with the Bible, to be honest 

1223
00:54:17,560 --> 00:54:22,720
with you, because the whole 
renewed 66, the whole renewed 

1224
00:54:22,720 --> 00:54:25,280
book is based on Romans 12/2. 
And be not conformed to this 

1225
00:54:25,280 --> 00:54:27,920
world, but be transformed by the
renewing of your mind. 

1226
00:54:28,440 --> 00:54:30,600
It's there. 
So that's the beautiful part of 

1227
00:54:30,600 --> 00:54:31,680
that. 
Now, when you come from a 

1228
00:54:31,960 --> 00:54:34,800
Christian perspective and a 
pastoral perspective, yeah, it 

1229
00:54:34,800 --> 00:54:36,680
was over here the whole time, 
but let's put this in a 

1230
00:54:36,680 --> 00:54:40,880
practical application today, so.
What I find is, especially with 

1231
00:54:40,880 --> 00:54:44,360
sort of religious scripture, 
stuff like that, it's all based 

1232
00:54:44,360 --> 00:54:47,640
around stories. 
And I find the stories stick 

1233
00:54:47,640 --> 00:54:49,680
with you in your memory much 
longer. 

1234
00:54:49,680 --> 00:54:52,800
And you can learn the the 
lessons from the stories much 

1235
00:54:52,800 --> 00:54:56,000
easier than if that guy slapped 
down a textbook and said here's 

1236
00:54:56,000 --> 00:54:58,880
the science of the brain. 
No one's going to remember that.

1237
00:54:59,160 --> 00:55:01,280
But you can put it into a story.
And that's sort of what I think 

1238
00:55:01,280 --> 00:55:04,280
it hits. 
It's got a bigger appeal anyway.

1239
00:55:04,280 --> 00:55:07,640
It doesn't matter if you're a 
neuroscience or you haven't got 

1240
00:55:07,640 --> 00:55:09,080
a brain, You can. 
You can. 

1241
00:55:09,080 --> 00:55:10,720
You can understand the story. 
You get 1. 

1242
00:55:10,720 --> 00:55:12,440
Majority. 
You know there's 27 books in the

1243
00:55:12,440 --> 00:55:16,880
New Testament, right? 
You know, 141617181920 some of 

1244
00:55:16,880 --> 00:55:19,520
those books are letters. 
They're letters all right. 

1245
00:55:19,520 --> 00:55:21,760
And then when you look at the 
preservation part of it with the

1246
00:55:21,760 --> 00:55:24,560
King James, the way it's 
written, you're going to learn 

1247
00:55:24,560 --> 00:55:26,760
more. 
It's going to stick with you in 

1248
00:55:26,760 --> 00:55:30,520
the King James rather than 
because grammatically it has, 

1249
00:55:30,520 --> 00:55:34,720
it's just posed to do that, 
whereas the modern versions 

1250
00:55:34,720 --> 00:55:36,440
aren't. 
I mean, some of them, there's an

1251
00:55:36,440 --> 00:55:39,520
actual computer score called the
Flesh Kincaid readability score 

1252
00:55:39,720 --> 00:55:42,440
and all the modern works that 
they've done which are based on 

1253
00:55:42,640 --> 00:55:45,440
ill transcripts, Every one of 
those works that are that are 

1254
00:55:45,560 --> 00:55:48,320
when the the computer, it's a 
non biased computer. 

1255
00:55:48,960 --> 00:55:52,280
It comes out as just 
grammatically 12th and 13th and 

1256
00:55:52,280 --> 00:55:54,680
14th grade reading level. 
Whereas you'll need a 7th grade 

1257
00:55:54,680 --> 00:55:57,600
reading level to understand the 
King James 7th grade's like a 12

1258
00:55:57,600 --> 00:55:59,560
year old, 1213 year old. 
So yeah. 

1259
00:55:59,560 --> 00:56:02,640
But I, I think I heard a stat 
before, something like 50% of 

1260
00:56:02,640 --> 00:56:07,400
the population have a reading 
level of say like a 14 year old 

1261
00:56:07,400 --> 00:56:09,160
and below. 
Like you need to be hitting 

1262
00:56:09,160 --> 00:56:12,280
those. 
So if you, you're missing out on

1263
00:56:12,280 --> 00:56:14,840
50% of the population just by 
writing. 

1264
00:56:17,160 --> 00:56:19,120
A modern version. 
Yeah, absolutely. 

1265
00:56:19,120 --> 00:56:20,640
You are. 
It's phenomenal. 

1266
00:56:20,640 --> 00:56:23,200
It's just, you know, and again, 
it's been around for 400 

1267
00:56:23,200 --> 00:56:26,120
something years, man. 
Our country here, you know, our 

1268
00:56:26,120 --> 00:56:28,360
country, your country. 
What's my country now? 

1269
00:56:28,360 --> 00:56:30,400
I'm a citizen now and it's your.
Country too. 

1270
00:56:30,840 --> 00:56:33,560
It's your country too, yeah? 
We produced it and put it around

1271
00:56:33,560 --> 00:56:35,400
the world. 
So, you know, hey, here it is. 

1272
00:56:35,400 --> 00:56:37,440
And it's still the best selling 
book of all time. 

1273
00:56:37,600 --> 00:56:40,200
Yeah. 
Bro, what's the biggest lesson 

1274
00:56:40,200 --> 00:56:41,880
that you learned? 
You studied neurology. 

1275
00:56:42,000 --> 00:56:44,120
What's the biggest lesson that 
you learned in studying 

1276
00:56:44,120 --> 00:56:47,000
neurology about the brain and 
how did you take that into your 

1277
00:56:47,160 --> 00:56:51,760
life as sort of actions that you
take to see the benefit or 

1278
00:56:51,760 --> 00:56:53,160
progress? 
Adaptability. 

1279
00:56:53,280 --> 00:56:56,240
Adaptability is the biggest and 
biggest key that probably the 

1280
00:56:56,240 --> 00:56:58,120
biggest thing that I learned 
about the brain. 

1281
00:56:58,520 --> 00:57:01,520
The brain, we use such a small 
part of it, but the power that 

1282
00:57:01,520 --> 00:57:03,440
we have of our brain, 
neurologically speaking, 

1283
00:57:03,760 --> 00:57:06,880
biologically speaking, every 
central aspect of it is the 

1284
00:57:06,880 --> 00:57:09,640
about adaptability of the brain 
because it's built to survive. 

1285
00:57:09,680 --> 00:57:13,080
OK, so you know, our fight or 
flights produced by cortisol, so

1286
00:57:13,160 --> 00:57:15,400
upper our levels of cortisol and
here's what happens. 

1287
00:57:15,840 --> 00:57:18,400
So you take take things, take 
choices we make every day. 

1288
00:57:18,680 --> 00:57:20,880
If we start becoming that 
critical person and we complain 

1289
00:57:20,880 --> 00:57:22,880
and complain and we're 
complaining about, you know, the

1290
00:57:22,880 --> 00:57:24,440
government here and the speed 
limit here. 

1291
00:57:24,440 --> 00:57:26,520
And I'll be honest with you, I 
complain about the speed limit. 

1292
00:57:26,520 --> 00:57:28,600
I hate it. 
But you know, we could once we 

1293
00:57:28,600 --> 00:57:31,000
start focusing on everything 
that is negative, the complaint,

1294
00:57:31,240 --> 00:57:35,160
our cortisol level rises. 
And what happens is it converts 

1295
00:57:35,160 --> 00:57:38,480
our brain, it physiologically 
changes our brain and it weakens

1296
00:57:38,480 --> 00:57:40,480
the adaptability. 
All right, so we lose 

1297
00:57:40,480 --> 00:57:44,320
inflection. 
We we lose compartmentalization,

1298
00:57:44,480 --> 00:57:46,960
we lose adjustability and 
adaptability throughout the day.

1299
00:57:46,960 --> 00:57:49,600
And here's the reality. 
If you're going to survive in 

1300
00:57:49,600 --> 00:57:51,640
this world today, your brain has
to adapt. 

1301
00:57:51,640 --> 00:57:53,880
We have to come down to the idea
of work. 

1302
00:57:53,880 --> 00:57:55,520
The problem, the problem is 
presented. 

1303
00:57:55,520 --> 00:57:58,000
I have a choice to make. 
I can either complain about the 

1304
00:57:58,000 --> 00:58:00,560
problem, rise cortisol levels, 
change the Physiology of my 

1305
00:58:00,560 --> 00:58:05,160
brain and make it weaken, or we 
make it weaker than it was and 

1306
00:58:05,560 --> 00:58:09,080
decrease the ability to adapt. 
Or I can be where my feet are 

1307
00:58:09,240 --> 00:58:10,440
right here. 
I'm in the moment, right here. 

1308
00:58:10,440 --> 00:58:13,600
Now I can look at the problem, I
can address the issue, and step 

1309
00:58:13,600 --> 00:58:16,800
by step by step, I can begin to 
work that problem, work that 

1310
00:58:16,800 --> 00:58:20,280
issue to where now we have lower
corzo level and our brain 

1311
00:58:20,280 --> 00:58:21,480
becomes more adaptable in our 
life. 

1312
00:58:21,480 --> 00:58:23,880
So adaptability is the greatest 
lesson that I've ever learned 

1313
00:58:24,240 --> 00:58:26,840
about the brain, especially 
through school and experience. 

1314
00:58:27,120 --> 00:58:31,240
And can you tie that to a Bible 
verse or a Bible proverb or 

1315
00:58:31,240 --> 00:58:31,880
something like that? 
Oh. 

1316
00:58:32,080 --> 00:58:35,000
Absolutely. 
So you know #1 Romish 12/2 that 

1317
00:58:35,000 --> 00:58:36,800
we mentioned just a moment ago. 
And be not conformed to this 

1318
00:58:36,800 --> 00:58:39,320
world, but be transformed by the
renewing of your mind. 

1319
00:58:39,320 --> 00:58:42,560
So your brain can adapt and you 
can renew that mind. 

1320
00:58:42,560 --> 00:58:45,480
You can, you can, you can put 
that into places that you need 

1321
00:58:45,480 --> 00:58:46,680
to. 
Now how do you do that? 

1322
00:58:46,680 --> 00:58:48,680
Here's where we come. 
There's the what we can do. 

1323
00:58:48,960 --> 00:58:50,960
You can renew the mind. 
You can change the mind. 

1324
00:58:50,960 --> 00:58:53,480
You can alter the way it works 
and you can improve it. 

1325
00:58:54,080 --> 00:58:56,000
How do we do that? 
Philippians 48. 

1326
00:58:56,160 --> 00:58:59,680
Paul says think on these things 
and he lists a series of things,

1327
00:58:59,680 --> 00:59:02,120
things that are just things that
are true, things that are are 

1328
00:59:02,120 --> 00:59:05,480
lovely, things that are of good 
report, you know, things that 

1329
00:59:05,480 --> 00:59:07,800
are honest. 
OK, so here's the deal about the

1330
00:59:07,800 --> 00:59:08,640
brain. 
Here's the trick. 

1331
00:59:09,480 --> 00:59:11,600
You can't have two thoughts at 
the same time. 

1332
00:59:12,160 --> 00:59:14,400
So if I was to describe to you a
Gray submarine, I want you to 

1333
00:59:14,400 --> 00:59:16,560
think about a Gray, Gray nuclear
submarine. 

1334
00:59:16,560 --> 00:59:18,360
It's going through the water. 
It's travelling at about 20 

1335
00:59:18,360 --> 00:59:20,080
knots right now, and that's what
it's doing. 

1336
00:59:20,080 --> 00:59:22,520
It's continuing to move. 
The lights are on red and it's 

1337
00:59:22,520 --> 00:59:23,800
just moving along doing it's 
work. 

1338
00:59:23,800 --> 00:59:25,280
You got that picture in your 
mind, right? 

1339
00:59:26,040 --> 00:59:27,800
OK. 
So we see that thing. 

1340
00:59:27,800 --> 00:59:29,920
It's moving, right? 
OK, now I want you to think 

1341
00:59:29,920 --> 00:59:33,240
about a pink Pansy. 
OK, alright. 

1342
00:59:33,320 --> 00:59:34,680
How fast is that submarine 
moving? 

1343
00:59:36,200 --> 00:59:38,600
Almost stationary I think, I 
can't remember it. 

1344
00:59:38,600 --> 00:59:41,000
Was 20 knots you? 
Did say, did you? 

1345
00:59:41,000 --> 00:59:43,640
You did. 
Say 29th, you can't think of we,

1346
00:59:43,840 --> 00:59:46,600
we cannot think of two things at
the same time. 

1347
00:59:46,640 --> 00:59:49,480
We, I know we say, well, we're 
multitaskers. 

1348
00:59:49,480 --> 00:59:52,080
No, you're not. 
You're we're either doing one 

1349
00:59:52,080 --> 00:59:56,200
thing at 100%, two things at 
5053 things that you see what 

1350
00:59:56,200 --> 00:59:59,640
I'm saying? 
We can't think on one thing 100%

1351
00:59:59,640 --> 01:00:01,400
of the time. 
We can't, I mean, I'm sorry, we 

1352
01:00:01,400 --> 01:00:04,560
can't think on two things 100% 
of the time and get focused to 

1353
01:00:04,560 --> 01:00:05,600
it. 
So what is Paul saying in 

1354
01:00:05,600 --> 01:00:08,680
Philippians 48 when something 
negative comes in? 

1355
01:00:08,680 --> 01:00:14,040
All right. 29 hour speed limit, 
Sorry, you know, shake it off. 

1356
01:00:14,240 --> 01:00:16,560
What is lovely, I start thinking
about something that's lovely. 

1357
01:00:16,560 --> 01:00:17,920
What is true? 
Think about something that's 

1358
01:00:17,920 --> 01:00:19,120
true. 
What is a good report? 

1359
01:00:19,320 --> 01:00:21,360
What is honest, what is just 
what is pure. 

1360
01:00:21,360 --> 01:00:23,760
You see what I'm saying? 
And that's how you bring those 

1361
01:00:23,760 --> 01:00:25,840
thoughts, those critical 
negative thoughts that are 

1362
01:00:25,840 --> 01:00:28,360
rising the cortisol level. 
That's how you bring them back 

1363
01:00:28,360 --> 01:00:31,560
into something that is positive 
and keeps your life thinking in 

1364
01:00:31,560 --> 01:00:34,640
the way that it should be, 
changing the way you think, as 

1365
01:00:34,640 --> 01:00:36,680
opposed to going to that default
and negativity. 

1366
01:00:37,680 --> 01:00:40,280
Maintains that adaptability 
then, and maintains that 

1367
01:00:40,280 --> 01:00:44,840
adaptability. 
What's 1 truth about CrossFit 

1368
01:00:44,840 --> 01:00:48,800
High Rocks Fitness that everyone
repeats that you found is 

1369
01:00:48,800 --> 01:00:50,320
completely wrong in the real 
world? 

1370
01:00:52,720 --> 01:00:55,200
Thinking they can skip a workout
and be just as good tomorrow as 

1371
01:00:55,200 --> 01:00:57,120
they were yesterday. 
OK. 

1372
01:00:57,120 --> 01:00:59,080
Yeah. 
So would you call that rest day?

1373
01:00:59,880 --> 01:01:01,240
No. 
Beyond a rest day, I think you 

1374
01:01:01,240 --> 01:01:02,840
should have rest days. 
We should train five days a 

1375
01:01:02,840 --> 01:01:04,880
week, should have two days rest.
We should do it. 

1376
01:01:04,880 --> 01:01:06,880
Or four days, three days rest, 
whatever it may be. 

1377
01:01:07,400 --> 01:01:10,840
But what I mean by saying that 
is, you know, I'll just skip 

1378
01:01:10,840 --> 01:01:13,840
this leg day today, or I'll skip
bench today, or I'll skip, you 

1379
01:01:13,840 --> 01:01:17,080
know, whatever today, I'll just 
pick it back up next week, you 

1380
01:01:17,080 --> 01:01:19,520
know, for no other reason than a
rest day. 

1381
01:01:19,600 --> 01:01:22,440
OK? 
People think that they'll be 

1382
01:01:22,440 --> 01:01:25,480
able to pick up where they left 
off and have no cost with it. 

1383
01:01:25,560 --> 01:01:29,520
You're going to have a cost. 
It may be a good cost, could be 

1384
01:01:29,520 --> 01:01:31,280
at times. 
I personally believe that you 

1385
01:01:31,280 --> 01:01:32,960
should have your rest days. 
You should have two rest days a 

1386
01:01:32,960 --> 01:01:35,080
week. 
I think you should have two rest

1387
01:01:35,080 --> 01:01:36,720
days a week that you don't even 
go on to the gym. 

1388
01:01:36,800 --> 01:01:40,520
You know, we have this whole 
ideology of active rest day and 

1389
01:01:40,520 --> 01:01:42,320
somebody comes in and they row 
5000 meters. 

1390
01:01:42,320 --> 01:01:44,600
That's not an active rest day. 
It's called a workout, you know.

1391
01:01:45,040 --> 01:01:47,520
And so, you know, yeah, we 
should have our rest days. 

1392
01:01:47,520 --> 01:01:50,760
But beyond that, people think 
that they can come off and skip 

1393
01:01:50,760 --> 01:01:53,920
a particular day and then still 
be where they want to be in six 

1394
01:01:53,920 --> 01:01:55,640
weeks, 8 weeks on a 12 week 
block. 

1395
01:01:55,880 --> 01:01:57,200
That's simply not going to 
happen. 

1396
01:01:58,280 --> 01:02:00,440
Training and working out in the 
gym, whether it be from the 

1397
01:02:00,440 --> 01:02:02,720
connections, whether it be from 
stress management, whether it be

1398
01:02:02,720 --> 01:02:05,280
from nutrition, whether it be 
from movement, all four of those

1399
01:02:05,280 --> 01:02:07,800
things are really tied in with 
consistency. 

1400
01:02:08,080 --> 01:02:10,560
The more consistent we are, the 
more disciplined and dedicated 

1401
01:02:10,560 --> 01:02:13,000
we are, the greater the benefits
that we're going to see. 

1402
01:02:13,000 --> 01:02:17,560
And so the, the, you know, I 
think the, the hidden part of 

1403
01:02:17,560 --> 01:02:20,760
that is, is I can skip today and
still be where I need to be. 

1404
01:02:21,120 --> 01:02:23,360
You won't be, it may be an 
acceptable cost. 

1405
01:02:23,400 --> 01:02:26,200
Maybe you need to skip that day,
but if you're just doing it 

1406
01:02:26,200 --> 01:02:28,960
because you hit the the snooze 
button. 

1407
01:02:29,360 --> 01:02:30,960
Just have that extra 20 minutes 
in bed. 

1408
01:02:31,600 --> 01:02:34,400
Yeah, you can. 
If you hit this I my philosophy 

1409
01:02:34,400 --> 01:02:35,680
is this. 
You hit the snooze button, 

1410
01:02:35,680 --> 01:02:37,160
you're weak. 
Really. 

1411
01:02:37,440 --> 01:02:40,400
How did you wake up you? 
Get up out of bed, man straight.

1412
01:02:40,400 --> 01:02:42,560
Away the. 
Alarm goes off at 4, you get up,

1413
01:02:43,000 --> 01:02:44,800
push through them. 
All you have to do is 30 

1414
01:02:44,800 --> 01:02:48,120
seconds. 30 seconds. 
Yeah, you get through 30 

1415
01:02:48,120 --> 01:02:48,960
seconds. 
You're done, man. 

1416
01:02:48,960 --> 01:02:50,160
Get up and go. 
You're good to go. 

1417
01:02:50,240 --> 01:02:51,120
See. 
I do. 

1418
01:02:51,760 --> 01:02:54,280
I have 3 snoozes. 
You're going to hate this. 

1419
01:02:54,600 --> 01:02:58,600
So if I need to get up at half 
six, my alarm goes off at six 

1420
01:02:59,240 --> 01:03:01,280
and then 9 past 6 because 
there's always the snooze is 

1421
01:03:01,280 --> 01:03:03,120
always 9 minutes. 
I don't know why I like it's 

1422
01:03:03,120 --> 01:03:08,080
like standard, standard set then
18 and then 27 and then I'm up. 

1423
01:03:08,440 --> 01:03:12,920
So like I need that to wake up. 
But I think because I heard 

1424
01:03:12,920 --> 01:03:17,120
somewhere someone told me before
countdown, if you countdown in 

1425
01:03:17,120 --> 01:03:20,080
your head, so the lamb wakes you
up and then you countdown from 

1426
01:03:20,080 --> 01:03:22,880
10 and you go. 
When I hit one, I'm getting up 

1427
01:03:23,360 --> 01:03:25,640
and I tried it once and it 
bloody worked. 

1428
01:03:25,640 --> 01:03:28,960
I fed, I went ten, I never 
accepted one, got up and I was 

1429
01:03:28,960 --> 01:03:30,600
like, that worked. 
I'm up. 

1430
01:03:30,920 --> 01:03:32,520
You're a wake up. 
It's a wake up process. 

1431
01:03:32,560 --> 01:03:34,120
Yeah, yeah. 
You're hitting snooze though. 

1432
01:03:34,440 --> 01:03:35,800
I wasn't hitting snooze that 
time. 

1433
01:03:36,160 --> 01:03:37,560
That'll work. 
I just get up. 

1434
01:03:37,680 --> 01:03:40,760
I just, I get up because I'm 
just going to pull the panty and

1435
01:03:40,760 --> 01:03:41,400
do it. 
I can. 

1436
01:03:41,400 --> 01:03:44,440
Imagine like like some sort of 
like like Frankenstein, just sit

1437
01:03:44,560 --> 01:03:45,800
up like I'm ready to go. 
Just. 

1438
01:03:45,800 --> 01:03:48,480
Get up and go, man, the thing, 
the thing about the snooze 

1439
01:03:48,480 --> 01:03:51,520
button here, here's the here's 
the the trick about the snooze 

1440
01:03:51,520 --> 01:03:53,440
button. 
You hit the snooze button and we

1441
01:03:53,440 --> 01:03:56,400
think we're getting extra sleep,
but you're not because the sleep

1442
01:03:56,400 --> 01:03:59,760
cycle is 90 minutes. 
So you have to restart that and 

1443
01:03:59,760 --> 01:04:02,760
then all of a sudden at night 
and it's it goes off again. 

1444
01:04:03,040 --> 01:04:06,720
And so the brain is it's the 
snooze button is detrimental. 

1445
01:04:06,720 --> 01:04:08,360
So I have. 
Heard that because you can sort 

1446
01:04:08,360 --> 01:04:11,000
of be in a deeper sleep 9 
minutes time because you've 

1447
01:04:11,000 --> 01:04:12,440
restarted that sleep cycle, you 
restart. 

1448
01:04:12,440 --> 01:04:14,480
That sleep cycle and you never 
hit what you need to hit. 

1449
01:04:14,960 --> 01:04:18,600
There's a great book by a guy 
called Doctor Nick Harris's I 

1450
01:04:18,600 --> 01:04:20,160
Know What to Do, so why don't I 
do it? 

1451
01:04:20,320 --> 01:04:23,640
And he was a, let me make sure. 
He was a professor of the 

1452
01:04:23,640 --> 01:04:28,480
University of Bath. 
He was a neurological 

1453
01:04:28,480 --> 01:04:32,440
immunologist. 
That's tremendous if you like 

1454
01:04:32,520 --> 01:04:33,720
that kind of reading. 
I do. 

1455
01:04:34,320 --> 01:04:37,040
It's a tremendous book to read. 
Tremendous book to read. 

1456
01:04:37,040 --> 01:04:38,760
He's actually moved over to the 
States. 

1457
01:04:38,840 --> 01:04:40,920
It's a British guy, moved over 
the States, and he trains the 

1458
01:04:40,920 --> 01:04:43,080
FBI. 
He trains all these guys for 

1459
01:04:43,080 --> 01:04:44,720
stress management and things 
like that. 

1460
01:04:44,720 --> 01:04:47,720
They have all the metrics and 
the data on there, but it's a 

1461
01:04:47,720 --> 01:04:50,640
phenomenal book to read on how 
the brain works. 

1462
01:04:50,640 --> 01:04:52,960
He even says if you're going to 
take a nap in the day, which he 

1463
01:04:52,960 --> 01:04:55,480
actually suggests people should 
take that. 

1464
01:04:55,720 --> 01:04:58,120
He says it should be 90 minutes 
and when you get up, you do 

1465
01:04:58,120 --> 01:05:00,560
everything that you normally do 
in the morning time. 

1466
01:05:00,560 --> 01:05:02,520
So like if you shower after, you
know, when you get up out of 

1467
01:05:02,520 --> 01:05:04,640
bed, he says get up, take a 
shower, brush your teeth, do 

1468
01:05:04,640 --> 01:05:06,680
this, do this. 
And he said that's the way to do

1469
01:05:06,680 --> 01:05:07,480
it. 
You know that's the way to do. 

1470
01:05:08,160 --> 01:05:09,440
It Yeah. 
If you have the time of the day 

1471
01:05:09,440 --> 01:05:12,760
to do that, I don't but. 
Get back in the shower. 

1472
01:05:12,840 --> 01:05:14,680
You're cereal as well, whatever 
you're doing. 

1473
01:05:15,000 --> 01:05:17,520
Yeah. 
What's something that people 

1474
01:05:17,520 --> 01:05:21,000
completely. 
What are people overlooking that

1475
01:05:21,160 --> 01:05:25,680
could completely change their 
progress in fitness time? 

1476
01:05:25,680 --> 01:05:29,680
Management is probably going to 
be one of the things and I'm, I 

1477
01:05:29,680 --> 01:05:31,480
mean, that's just one of them. 
That's going to be a part of a 

1478
01:05:31,480 --> 01:05:33,840
few. 
But I think people overlook time

1479
01:05:33,840 --> 01:05:35,880
management because they, what 
they look at is they look at 

1480
01:05:35,880 --> 01:05:40,160
when can I squeeze the gym in 
gym in as opposed to let me work

1481
01:05:40,160 --> 01:05:42,480
my day out to where I can be at 
the gym and I can be at the 

1482
01:05:42,480 --> 01:05:44,680
school and I can be at work and 
I can be at the bank and I can 

1483
01:05:44,680 --> 01:05:48,000
be, you know, be what I need to 
do every single day and to move 

1484
01:05:48,000 --> 01:05:50,880
things around. 
That's the one thing I think 

1485
01:05:50,880 --> 01:05:52,920
that people miss is the time 
management aspect. 

1486
01:05:52,920 --> 01:05:56,240
And we do live in a world today 
that has a weaker time manager 

1487
01:05:56,240 --> 01:05:58,160
than anything. 
We seem like we're a busy 

1488
01:05:58,160 --> 01:06:00,360
society. 
Much of that is produced by 

1489
01:06:00,360 --> 01:06:03,640
social media and then constant 
contact and, you know, always 

1490
01:06:03,640 --> 01:06:05,000
needed to be in touch with one 
another. 

1491
01:06:05,760 --> 01:06:08,720
I think that's something it's, 
it's, it's not real, but I think

1492
01:06:08,720 --> 01:06:10,400
it's, there's a pressure on the 
outside. 

1493
01:06:10,600 --> 01:06:12,960
So people feel conflicted about 
their time management. 

1494
01:06:14,160 --> 01:06:17,080
If you can do what you normally 
do every single day. 

1495
01:06:17,080 --> 01:06:19,440
So let's say you're going to the
gym Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, 

1496
01:06:19,440 --> 01:06:22,240
and then Friday, Saturday, and 
then you're in that same class 

1497
01:06:22,240 --> 01:06:25,120
at 9:30 or the 8:00 or the 7:00,
you're in that same class. 

1498
01:06:25,480 --> 01:06:28,600
Your life and your body gets 
into a schedule and a routine. 

1499
01:06:28,920 --> 01:06:32,080
So routines are a blessing. 
They are a benefit to us. 

1500
01:06:32,080 --> 01:06:33,960
They help us. 
They're not only that to give us

1501
01:06:33,960 --> 01:06:36,080
security. 
So I think one of the elements 

1502
01:06:36,080 --> 01:06:39,160
that people are missing is time 
management. 

1503
01:06:39,160 --> 01:06:42,880
Now that ties into the secondary
reason people are filling their 

1504
01:06:42,880 --> 01:06:46,720
days with a lot of busy work 
today, more than probably they 

1505
01:06:46,720 --> 01:06:50,440
ever have been from after school
activities, from parental 

1506
01:06:50,440 --> 01:06:52,560
activities, from this and that 
and the other. 

1507
01:06:53,120 --> 01:06:56,960
And there's a problem for that 
because begin to be pulled in 

1508
01:06:57,080 --> 01:07:00,960
all sorts of directions and you 
cannot do five and six and seven

1509
01:07:00,960 --> 01:07:04,760
things efficiently. 
You know, at the same time, Jim 

1510
01:07:04,760 --> 01:07:08,080
Collins says that if you have 
more than 33 priorities in 

1511
01:07:08,080 --> 01:07:10,160
business or, and I and I 
transfer this into life, you 

1512
01:07:10,160 --> 01:07:12,400
have more than three priorities.
You have none. 

1513
01:07:12,880 --> 01:07:16,720
And so you have to look at life 
in a, in a prioritization packet

1514
01:07:16,720 --> 01:07:20,800
to where those 3 priorities will
fit into your everyday life. 

1515
01:07:21,200 --> 01:07:22,680
That's where time management 
comes in. 

1516
01:07:22,680 --> 01:07:25,600
The one package that people are 
probably missing, the trickle 

1517
01:07:25,600 --> 01:07:28,720
down effect of that is going to 
be the nutrition, it's going to 

1518
01:07:28,720 --> 01:07:30,760
be the strength, it's going to 
be the cardiovascular system, 

1519
01:07:30,760 --> 01:07:32,480
it's going to be the water 
intake, It's going to be all the

1520
01:07:32,480 --> 01:07:36,040
things that take take place in 
that column, if you will, 

1521
01:07:36,040 --> 01:07:38,360
priorities, the source of that 
time management. 

1522
01:07:38,600 --> 01:07:39,880
Yeah. 
And what's the simple thing that

1523
01:07:39,880 --> 01:07:42,040
people can do to get a hold of 
that? 

1524
01:07:42,320 --> 01:07:45,120
Cut out what you don't need. 
I mentioned earlier about my 

1525
01:07:45,120 --> 01:07:48,400
prioritization between what is 
urgent, emergent, and important.

1526
01:07:48,920 --> 01:07:51,080
Everybody's important. 
Every human, every person, every

1527
01:07:51,080 --> 01:07:53,080
soul on the planet today are 
important. 

1528
01:07:53,080 --> 01:07:56,440
Their needs are important and 
who they are is important, but 

1529
01:07:56,440 --> 01:07:59,280
everything and everyone at a 
given particular time is not 

1530
01:07:59,640 --> 01:08:02,560
emergent or urgent and you have 
to break those down. 

1531
01:08:02,560 --> 01:08:05,520
And so when you begin to break 
down urgent, emergent and 

1532
01:08:05,520 --> 01:08:07,920
importance, you know where you 
can put them through the day. 

1533
01:08:07,920 --> 01:08:12,000
So yeah, you know what? 
Shopping on Thursday before 

1534
01:08:12,000 --> 01:08:14,480
school let's out, that's 
probably important. 

1535
01:08:14,560 --> 01:08:19,160
Can I shift that to an 8:00 or 
can I shift that to after the 

1536
01:08:19,160 --> 01:08:21,520
school run? 
You know, can I shift that here 

1537
01:08:21,520 --> 01:08:24,240
on a Thursday, which is my rest 
day from the gym? 

1538
01:08:24,479 --> 01:08:26,080
I'm just being, you know, just 
saying this. 

1539
01:08:26,399 --> 01:08:29,279
If I can shift that time from 
here and move it, that's my rest

1540
01:08:29,279 --> 01:08:30,040
day. 
I'm not in the gym. 

1541
01:08:30,200 --> 01:08:33,040
I drop the kids off, then I go 
do the shopping rather than the 

1542
01:08:33,040 --> 01:08:34,760
afternoon. 
You see what I'm saying? 

1543
01:08:34,840 --> 01:08:36,880
And now I got the afternoon 
where I can pick the kids up. 

1544
01:08:37,000 --> 01:08:40,120
We're back home, dinner's made, 
house is cleaned, I'm ready to 

1545
01:08:40,120 --> 01:08:42,120
go. 
You got to decide what is 

1546
01:08:42,120 --> 01:08:44,520
important, urgent, emergent and 
urgent because the reality is, 

1547
01:08:44,520 --> 01:08:46,920
if something's truly urgent, it 
has to be done. 

1548
01:08:46,920 --> 01:08:50,520
Yeah, that there, there's no, 
there's no shifting that to 

1549
01:08:50,520 --> 01:08:51,800
Thursday. 
You do it today. 

1550
01:08:52,200 --> 01:08:55,720
If it's emergent, that means it 
comes before urgent, it comes 

1551
01:08:55,720 --> 01:08:58,040
before something else. 
And you have to be able to make 

1552
01:08:58,040 --> 01:09:00,600
that, that situation. 
My life is scheduled. 

1553
01:09:01,240 --> 01:09:04,359
But the moment I get a a church 
member or something or even a 

1554
01:09:04,359 --> 01:09:07,680
gym member that goes to the 
hospital, you know, that now 

1555
01:09:07,680 --> 01:09:09,560
becomes emergent. 
I'm going to go visit with them.

1556
01:09:09,560 --> 01:09:10,680
I'm going to see how they're 
doing. 

1557
01:09:10,840 --> 01:09:12,960
Anything I can do to help out? 
Is your family anything? 

1558
01:09:12,960 --> 01:09:15,240
Do we need to take meals? 
You know, things along that line

1559
01:09:16,279 --> 01:09:18,800
and you have to have that time 
and then you shift the urgent 

1560
01:09:18,800 --> 01:09:21,399
down and the important moves to 
the side. 

1561
01:09:21,560 --> 01:09:23,920
So time management is a key. 
I think that people miss that. 

1562
01:09:23,920 --> 01:09:26,640
If they would apply it 
appropriately, it would benefit 

1563
01:09:26,640 --> 01:09:28,399
them in the gym. 
Benefit from everywhere to be 

1564
01:09:28,399 --> 01:09:30,240
honest with you, but in the gym,
especially you. 

1565
01:09:30,240 --> 01:09:33,000
Want to see I live my life by my
calendar like every everything 

1566
01:09:33,000 --> 01:09:36,439
scheduled, even though like 
almost down to like run bath, 

1567
01:09:36,760 --> 01:09:38,520
brush teeth, like you want to 
see it? 

1568
01:09:38,560 --> 01:09:41,960
It's all different colours or 
labeled or categorized. 

1569
01:09:41,960 --> 01:09:44,279
I love it like it's it's the 
only way I can function. 

1570
01:09:44,479 --> 01:09:46,680
But like, you have to, you have 
to have a handle in your bloody 

1571
01:09:46,680 --> 01:09:48,399
life. 
Otherwise, your life has a 

1572
01:09:48,399 --> 01:09:50,600
handle on you, you know, And 
it's that's. 

1573
01:09:50,600 --> 01:09:52,080
Wise words. 
They're like that I made. 

1574
01:09:52,080 --> 01:09:53,359
That that'd be a new T-shirt 
now. 

1575
01:09:56,760 --> 01:10:00,520
What's your what's your most 
unpopular training opinion then 

1576
01:10:00,520 --> 01:10:04,520
that would actually give people 
an unfair advantage and you 

1577
01:10:04,520 --> 01:10:08,640
can't say cheating. 
Unfair advantage and not 

1578
01:10:08,640 --> 01:10:12,920
cheating. 
So P DS. 

1579
01:10:12,960 --> 01:10:17,160
I mean, I guess that's that's 
probably a pet hate of mine. 

1580
01:10:17,160 --> 01:10:20,120
I would say. 
Yeah, you know, of course I know

1581
01:10:20,120 --> 01:10:22,320
we're in a world today. 
I grew up in a world where 

1582
01:10:22,320 --> 01:10:24,680
people were, you know, were were
doing steroids and things like 

1583
01:10:24,680 --> 01:10:27,000
that. 
It was like, man, I was, you 

1584
01:10:27,000 --> 01:10:29,120
know, you kept it quiet. 
Nobody said anything at all 

1585
01:10:29,520 --> 01:10:31,000
today. 
It's just out, it's spoken out 

1586
01:10:31,000 --> 01:10:32,600
in the open and and which is 
fine. 

1587
01:10:32,600 --> 01:10:34,040
I mean, you know, that's what 
people want to do. 

1588
01:10:35,440 --> 01:10:37,600
I mean, I don't know. 
I don't I guess I don't I've 

1589
01:10:37,600 --> 01:10:39,480
really never thought about it. 
I don't, I don't look at 

1590
01:10:39,480 --> 01:10:43,320
anything as an unfair advantage.
I look at people were born 

1591
01:10:43,320 --> 01:10:45,800
differently. 
We have different qualities, not

1592
01:10:45,800 --> 01:10:48,960
better than the other one. 
We have a particular guy, bloke 

1593
01:10:48,960 --> 01:10:52,360
in the gym that he's just a 
genetic specimen, You know, he 

1594
01:10:52,360 --> 01:10:54,720
really is. 
He's like, and I, I, I partnered

1595
01:10:54,720 --> 01:10:59,160
him up or, or teamed him up with
a new guy in the gym today and, 

1596
01:10:59,280 --> 01:11:01,760
and I was like, I told him, I'm 
sorry, you know, I'm just going 

1597
01:11:01,760 --> 01:11:03,040
to go and say I'm sorry right 
now. 

1598
01:11:03,280 --> 01:11:04,720
End up having a tremendous time.
I. 

1599
01:11:04,720 --> 01:11:06,080
Hope you're not talking about my
brother now. 

1600
01:11:08,400 --> 01:11:10,480
Yeah, referring to him as a 
genetic specimen. 

1601
01:11:11,600 --> 01:11:15,120
We do it and again, but I don't 
look at that as being unfair. 

1602
01:11:15,120 --> 01:11:16,160
I look at that as being a 
blessing. 

1603
01:11:16,320 --> 01:11:20,080
That's just how it is. 
You know, I I went to the same 

1604
01:11:20,080 --> 01:11:24,440
high school as Deion Sanders. 
Deion Sanders honestly is the 

1605
01:11:24,440 --> 01:11:26,720
guy who did not have to 
practice. 

1606
01:11:26,720 --> 01:11:30,440
He could show up on a Saturday 
or Sunday, NFL on a Sunday or 

1607
01:11:30,760 --> 01:11:33,200
college on a Saturday and beat 
everyone. 

1608
01:11:33,200 --> 01:11:35,160
He was the fastest. 
He's the greatest cornerback in 

1609
01:11:35,160 --> 01:11:36,960
American football that's ever 
played the game. 

1610
01:11:37,000 --> 01:11:41,600
OK, so here's a reality. 
He had the greatest work ethic 

1611
01:11:41,600 --> 01:11:43,720
on the University of Florida 
State University's team. 

1612
01:11:44,040 --> 01:11:47,240
He never quit working. 
He all in it to this day, he's 

1613
01:11:47,240 --> 01:11:49,240
still working coaching the 
University of Colorado, good 

1614
01:11:49,240 --> 01:11:53,120
mate of minds coaching with him.
So I mean, you know, look at 

1615
01:11:53,120 --> 01:11:55,040
that. 
He has a God gifted talent. 

1616
01:11:55,040 --> 01:11:58,040
You know, he has a God gifted, 
you know, ability about it and 

1617
01:11:58,040 --> 01:12:00,880
he's putting it to good use. 
Others have to work a little bit

1618
01:12:00,880 --> 01:12:02,160
harder. 
They have to train a little bit 

1619
01:12:02,160 --> 01:12:03,520
harder. 
They may never get to that 

1620
01:12:03,520 --> 01:12:05,480
level. 
But I've never really looked at 

1621
01:12:05,480 --> 01:12:08,640
anything like that as an unfair 
advantage. 

1622
01:12:08,640 --> 01:12:12,080
I mean, I look at Rob, Rob as as
strong as a house. 

1623
01:12:12,080 --> 01:12:15,800
I mean, the guy can still get up
underneath, you know, 200 and 

1624
01:12:15,800 --> 01:12:18,800
8300 kilos on the squad. 
Same with the deadlift. 

1625
01:12:18,800 --> 01:12:22,640
And you know, he's just got a 
natural ability to, to deadlift 

1626
01:12:22,640 --> 01:12:26,120
in a squat and like that. 
And I, I look at that as just 

1627
01:12:26,120 --> 01:12:27,280
being a gift. 
It's a blessing. 

1628
01:12:27,280 --> 01:12:29,040
So I don't see it as unfair. 
Yeah, I like it. 

1629
01:12:29,040 --> 01:12:31,600
So it's not unfair. 
It's it's a fair advantage. 

1630
01:12:31,920 --> 01:12:36,440
And it sounds to me that it's, 
it's almost like that worth work

1631
01:12:36,440 --> 01:12:39,600
ethic could be that thing that 
you're referring to there. 

1632
01:12:39,600 --> 01:12:42,040
It's like put the work in and 
that will give you the 

1633
01:12:42,040 --> 01:12:44,080
advantage. 
There's no cheat codes. 

1634
01:12:44,640 --> 01:12:46,080
Put the work in and you can get 
them. 

1635
01:12:46,680 --> 01:12:48,680
You know, it's funny, character 
building. 

1636
01:12:49,120 --> 01:12:53,240
I, you know, one of the things 
I've always refused to do is I 

1637
01:12:53,240 --> 01:12:55,760
refuse to take shortcuts walking
somewhere. 

1638
01:12:56,400 --> 01:12:57,920
So if you notice, if you're at 
the gym, you know, you're 

1639
01:12:57,920 --> 01:12:59,880
walking down the pavement, get 
ready to turn to the car park. 

1640
01:12:59,880 --> 01:13:03,120
There, you'll see there's a 
little path on the grass. 

1641
01:13:03,400 --> 01:13:05,160
I refuse to walk in that. 
There's a couple of reasons I 

1642
01:13:05,160 --> 01:13:07,000
don't want muddled my shoes. 
That's number one, all right, 

1643
01:13:07,560 --> 01:13:09,880
But it's a shortcut. 
I think it's a character flaw. 

1644
01:13:10,240 --> 01:13:12,920
Now, for those listening who do 
that, I'm not sorry. 

1645
01:13:13,080 --> 01:13:15,480
I'm just telling you the truth. 
I mean, I'm not trying to offend

1646
01:13:15,480 --> 01:13:17,600
you, but I believe in walking 
the path. 

1647
01:13:18,120 --> 01:13:21,000
You walk the path that a step 
before you be who you are, be 

1648
01:13:21,000 --> 01:13:23,320
where your feet are so that you 
can be better tomorrow than you 

1649
01:13:23,320 --> 01:13:25,400
are today. 
And there is no shortcut out 

1650
01:13:25,400 --> 01:13:27,600
there that's going to get you 
where you need to be in the 

1651
01:13:27,600 --> 01:13:29,600
weeks to come. 
You just have to keep putting 

1652
01:13:29,600 --> 01:13:31,000
one step in front of the other 
and he. 

1653
01:13:31,000 --> 01:13:32,640
Said something about you, it's 
who you are. 

1654
01:13:32,640 --> 01:13:35,080
I'm not shortcut taker. 
I will walk the path. 

1655
01:13:35,320 --> 01:13:38,520
Then you get more steps in, then
you're losing more weight, then 

1656
01:13:38,520 --> 01:13:40,640
you getting fitter. 
So like there's benefits it all 

1657
01:13:40,640 --> 01:13:42,080
trickles down and knocks. 
Yeah. 

1658
01:13:42,600 --> 01:13:45,080
What? 
What's the future then for BJ? 

1659
01:13:45,320 --> 01:13:47,000
What's what you doing in the 
next year? 

1660
01:13:47,640 --> 01:13:49,440
Next year, I'm going to continue
what I'm doing. 

1661
01:13:49,440 --> 01:13:51,760
We'll keep digging, keep trying 
to make lives better, keep 

1662
01:13:51,760 --> 01:13:54,040
planning churches, keep 
preaching, teaching, keep 

1663
01:13:54,040 --> 01:13:55,920
helping in the schools. 
I'm going to keep coaching. 

1664
01:13:55,920 --> 01:13:58,520
By God's grace, I'm going to be 
here next year and, and 

1665
01:13:58,520 --> 01:14:01,960
hopefully be stronger, you know,
and hopefully be better than I 

1666
01:14:01,960 --> 01:14:06,280
am right now. 
But you know, I will say this, I

1667
01:14:06,280 --> 01:14:10,080
learned a long time ago my plan 
was to live and die. 

1668
01:14:10,080 --> 01:14:13,520
We had 55 acres in Tennessee. 
I was planning on being buried 

1669
01:14:13,520 --> 01:14:17,600
on that property and divvying it
up before I died to my children.

1670
01:14:17,600 --> 01:14:19,480
Have a little neighborhood 
family there. 

1671
01:14:19,480 --> 01:14:23,520
That's what that was my plan. 
And as you can see, I'm living 

1672
01:14:23,520 --> 01:14:25,080
in Wales. 
I'm in the Cardiff right now. 

1673
01:14:26,840 --> 01:14:29,680
I think it a compliment because 
I'm in the center of God's will 

1674
01:14:29,680 --> 01:14:33,240
where he wants me to be. 
And right now my plan is to take

1675
01:14:33,240 --> 01:14:35,560
care of today and then I'll get 
up in the morning and take care 

1676
01:14:35,560 --> 01:14:37,560
of tomorrow. 
But I'm going to live this day 

1677
01:14:37,560 --> 01:14:40,240
today where my feet are and 
focus on where I am right now. 

1678
01:14:40,240 --> 01:14:42,760
So tomorrow I don't have to 
worry about tomorrow. 

1679
01:14:42,760 --> 01:14:44,240
I'm taking care of right now 
today. 

1680
01:14:44,240 --> 01:14:47,560
But my plan is to do what God 
wants me to do every single day 

1681
01:14:47,560 --> 01:14:51,040
and help out where I can and 
hopefully make a difference. 

1682
01:14:51,040 --> 01:14:52,320
I just want to make a difference
in the world. 

1683
01:14:52,320 --> 01:14:54,520
That's about all I want to do. 
And it starts with me doing it 

1684
01:14:54,520 --> 01:14:57,040
today, and I'm hope I'm doing it
a year from now right here. 

1685
01:14:57,240 --> 01:14:58,080
Yeah. 
I love it, man. 

1686
01:14:58,080 --> 01:14:59,720
I love it. 
Where, Where can people follow 

1687
01:14:59,720 --> 01:15:00,960
you? 
Where can people buy your books?

1688
01:15:00,960 --> 01:15:02,840
Where can people go see you in 
the gym? 

1689
01:15:02,840 --> 01:15:04,440
Or where can people go and see 
you in the church? 

1690
01:15:04,720 --> 01:15:08,240
So the website, my website for 
the books and it's got devotions

1691
01:15:08,240 --> 01:15:10,120
on it has all kinds of litany 
information on it. 

1692
01:15:10,120 --> 01:15:12,920
It's just myname.com. 
It's bjstagner.com. 

1693
01:15:13,320 --> 01:15:14,920
They can get the books there, 
the devotions. 

1694
01:15:14,920 --> 01:15:17,040
Our challenge is there. 
We actually just started a new 

1695
01:15:17,040 --> 01:15:20,280
66 day challenge this past 
Monday in the front end of 

1696
01:15:20,280 --> 01:15:22,600
February. 
That's been a blessing that's 

1697
01:15:22,600 --> 01:15:24,120
going on. 
So they can get all the books 

1698
01:15:24,120 --> 01:15:25,720
off of there, all the 
information there, all the 

1699
01:15:25,720 --> 01:15:27,800
devotions. 
Our churches, we have two 

1700
01:15:27,800 --> 01:15:29,680
churches. 
We have one up in the the 

1701
01:15:29,680 --> 01:15:33,320
Cunning Valley in Aberamon. 
Our church is at 22 Lewis St. in

1702
01:15:33,320 --> 01:15:34,960
Aberamon. 
We meet there on Sunday mornings

1703
01:15:34,960 --> 01:15:38,480
and Wednesday nights. 
Our Cardiff church, we meet at 

1704
01:15:38,480 --> 01:15:42,080
the My Sequoia Community Center 
on Sunday night at 1755, which 

1705
01:15:42,080 --> 01:15:45,760
you know is means 6:00, but 1755
is our start time. 

1706
01:15:46,160 --> 01:15:48,760
We usually try to say, but that 
is Sunday evenings. 

1707
01:15:48,760 --> 01:15:50,720
That's both of our Calvary 
Baptist churches. 

1708
01:15:51,280 --> 01:15:53,760
One is called Calvary Baptist 
Church to kind of valley and the

1709
01:15:53,760 --> 01:15:55,720
other is called Calvary Baptist 
Church of Cardiff. 

1710
01:15:56,080 --> 01:15:58,680
And I'm in the gym most days, so
I coach on Thursday mornings and

1711
01:15:58,680 --> 01:16:00,400
Friday nights, love Friday 
nights. 

1712
01:16:00,400 --> 01:16:02,440
That's a wonderful time. 
You get to really spend time 

1713
01:16:02,440 --> 01:16:04,480
with the people. 
But I'm typically there in the 

1714
01:16:04,480 --> 01:16:07,360
morning times almost every day, 
obviously with, except for 

1715
01:16:07,360 --> 01:16:09,920
Wednesdays and Sundays, and so 
I'm always around. 

1716
01:16:09,920 --> 01:16:12,480
I'm not hard to find. 
BJ that was fantastic. 

1717
01:16:12,480 --> 01:16:13,840
Awesome. 
Thank you very much for coming 

1718
01:16:13,840 --> 01:16:14,400
