1 00:00:00,120 --> 00:00:01,240 Greggy Piggy, what are you saying? 2 00:00:01,240 --> 00:00:03,320 Greggy, Peggy, what do you got on your face? 3 00:00:03,320 --> 00:00:05,440 It's a hairnet celebration we had. 4 00:00:05,440 --> 00:00:07,440 Our health department came in. This is true. 5 00:00:07,440 --> 00:00:09,480 I don't have to wear this. You ain't got no hair on your 6 00:00:09,480 --> 00:00:10,920 face. We had the health department 7 00:00:10,920 --> 00:00:13,000 come in, so last week or two weeks ago it. 8 00:00:13,880 --> 00:00:15,280 Was probably 2 weeks ago now wasn't. 9 00:00:15,280 --> 00:00:18,880 It yeah, two weeks ago they gave us a clean bill of health. 10 00:00:19,480 --> 00:00:22,760 We have to get checked by them every year, and every year they 11 00:00:22,760 --> 00:00:24,000 say we're doing it right. Yeah. 12 00:00:24,000 --> 00:00:26,440 So that's always when. Not only do we do it right, but 13 00:00:26,440 --> 00:00:29,520 you are. I'm a freak, yeah. 14 00:00:29,520 --> 00:00:33,120 I don't think anybody's as freaky that came out wrong. 15 00:00:33,120 --> 00:00:34,960 I. Was going to see where you're 16 00:00:34,960 --> 00:00:37,360 headed with that one. I don't think anybody's as 17 00:00:37,360 --> 00:00:39,640 freaky. I don't think anyone's as over 18 00:00:39,640 --> 00:00:42,080 the top with their health department standards. 19 00:00:42,080 --> 00:00:44,840 I mean, like, I get down on my freaking hands and knees every 20 00:00:44,840 --> 00:00:47,680 day and I'm checking things like, yeah, I go extreme with 21 00:00:47,680 --> 00:00:48,400 it. Yep. 22 00:00:49,440 --> 00:00:50,960 Man but. We make a food product. 23 00:00:50,960 --> 00:00:54,240 So we make a food product. Yeah, like I, I would eat, I 24 00:00:54,240 --> 00:00:55,360 mean, I eat pretty much everything. 25 00:00:55,360 --> 00:00:56,800 Like I'll throw stuff on the ground. 26 00:00:56,800 --> 00:01:00,120 Rigel, you know, 2 1/2 year old kid and he's dropping food. 27 00:01:00,120 --> 00:01:01,600 Diesel's got his hair all over it. 28 00:01:01,600 --> 00:01:02,920 I'll eat it without thinking twice. 29 00:01:02,920 --> 00:01:06,000 But obviously I'm not going to have that level of standard for 30 00:01:06,000 --> 00:01:08,240 what I'm selling, thank goodness. 31 00:01:08,240 --> 00:01:10,680 So like, yeah, I don't take any chance. 32 00:01:10,920 --> 00:01:13,120 Well, I mean, even if a brick accidentally hits the floor 33 00:01:13,280 --> 00:01:15,560 during packaging, we don't. We don't sell it, but we eat it 34 00:01:15,560 --> 00:01:16,560 because we know the floor is clean. 35 00:01:16,640 --> 00:01:19,320 Yeah, we eat it. But like, we've got a massive 36 00:01:19,320 --> 00:01:23,320 employee bin of bricks that have fallen, bricks that didn't get 37 00:01:23,320 --> 00:01:25,200 packaged correctly. Broken underweight. 38 00:01:25,200 --> 00:01:27,440 Broken underweights, any of that stuff. 39 00:01:27,840 --> 00:01:30,640 So yeah, I want everybody to know that if they get a brick 40 00:01:30,640 --> 00:01:33,720 from us, they're getting the highest quality that they can 41 00:01:33,720 --> 00:01:38,240 get, period. So I do like these glasses, but 42 00:01:38,240 --> 00:01:41,040 they kind of it's kind of weird getting acclimated to the red 43 00:01:41,040 --> 00:01:42,160 tint man. If these are. 44 00:01:42,160 --> 00:01:43,640 Does it tint everything? Can I see it tints? 45 00:01:43,920 --> 00:01:45,760 Everything. I mean, obviously tints 46 00:01:45,760 --> 00:01:47,520 everything, but what about like even like that? 47 00:01:47,600 --> 00:01:50,040 Lights, yeah. Yeah, I'm gonna go with the 48 00:01:50,040 --> 00:01:53,640 biker look today. This is even more red, though, 49 00:01:54,440 --> 00:01:56,880 so we were working out this morning. 50 00:01:56,960 --> 00:01:58,960 We got a good lift in. We're gonna switch our training 51 00:01:58,960 --> 00:02:02,800 split to a full body after Wednesday. 52 00:02:03,120 --> 00:02:06,480 Yeah, starting next week, yeah. Well, deload this week and then 53 00:02:06,480 --> 00:02:08,960 I guess officially. Three or four day deload, Yeah, 54 00:02:08,960 --> 00:02:10,800 I'm gonna work on a little bit of mobility core. 55 00:02:11,000 --> 00:02:12,800 Cuz you're gone Friday, Saturday and Sunday. 56 00:02:12,800 --> 00:02:13,640 I'm gonna. Head out to town. 57 00:02:13,720 --> 00:02:16,560 Yep. So we'll pick back up next week 58 00:02:16,560 --> 00:02:19,680 with full body, which I think full body in the context of a 59 00:02:19,680 --> 00:02:22,760 prep is probably the best option because I think you're getting 60 00:02:23,400 --> 00:02:27,160 more muscle preservation in the context of a caloric deficit 61 00:02:27,160 --> 00:02:28,840 because you're training more frequently. 62 00:02:29,640 --> 00:02:31,040 So it keeps the muscles in high demand. 63 00:02:31,040 --> 00:02:32,920 I think it's the way to go. And I like switching it up every 64 00:02:32,920 --> 00:02:34,400 now and then. We've been doing this current 65 00:02:34,400 --> 00:02:38,520 split since what, December, December, end of December, early 66 00:02:38,520 --> 00:02:40,600 January. So it's been a three almost 4 67 00:02:40,600 --> 00:02:42,320 month. And I was doing full body for 68 00:02:42,320 --> 00:02:44,800 like 2 years prior to doing this, so this was the first time 69 00:02:44,800 --> 00:02:47,880 I've deviated from full body in quite some time, but it's been 70 00:02:47,880 --> 00:02:49,160 good to mix it up. Yep. 71 00:02:49,480 --> 00:02:52,600 You said it. I just got done slamming a 72 00:02:52,920 --> 00:02:57,560 primal fudge keto brick. I stole one that was not in the 73 00:02:57,560 --> 00:03:00,520 employee bin. I stole one from the main bin. 74 00:03:00,840 --> 00:03:03,800 From someone's order. From someone's order, no yours. 75 00:03:03,880 --> 00:03:05,880 We have a little buffer so that no worries there. 76 00:03:06,360 --> 00:03:07,640 But yeah, we sold out a Primal Fudge. 77 00:03:07,640 --> 00:03:10,760 Look at the split man. This was the second Carnivore 78 00:03:10,760 --> 00:03:15,760 launch we did this month and both of them sold out in no 79 00:03:15,760 --> 00:03:17,440 time. And this is the second time we 80 00:03:17,440 --> 00:03:20,000 launched Primal Fudge, correct? Yeah, second time we've 81 00:03:20,000 --> 00:03:21,600 launched. And it sold out in 57 minutes 82 00:03:21,600 --> 00:03:25,920 the first time, so we made more. We made a few more and they sold 83 00:03:25,920 --> 00:03:27,640 out. I don't know what the official 84 00:03:27,640 --> 00:03:29,160 sell out time was. I think it was just over an 85 00:03:29,160 --> 00:03:31,440 hour, maybe an hour, 15 minutes, an hour, 20 minutes, something 86 00:03:31,440 --> 00:03:32,480 like that. I don't think it was more than 87 00:03:32,480 --> 00:03:34,280 an hour, 20 minutes. So you guys rock. 88 00:03:34,320 --> 00:03:37,000 You guys definitely showed up and. 89 00:03:37,880 --> 00:03:38,800 You did. You did. 90 00:03:38,920 --> 00:03:41,080 Showed us what you like. So we are very grateful. 91 00:03:41,080 --> 00:03:46,200 I have to like pinch myself on occasion because I had a call 92 00:03:46,200 --> 00:03:49,560 the other day with somebody from Washington. 93 00:03:49,560 --> 00:03:53,160 He's in Idaho now, but he and I met at one of the competitions 94 00:03:53,160 --> 00:03:55,880 that I either competed in or attended when I lived in 95 00:03:55,880 --> 00:03:58,200 Washington way back in the very beginning, like before Keto 96 00:03:58,200 --> 00:04:01,320 Savage was a thing. And he and I got connected them. 97 00:04:01,480 --> 00:04:03,400 And he and I have kind of stayed in touch over the years. 98 00:04:03,400 --> 00:04:05,960 Like I had them on my podcast five years ago and talked to him 99 00:04:05,960 --> 00:04:08,560 in five or six years. But he reached out to me a name 100 00:04:08,880 --> 00:04:11,480 and he wanted to jump on a call and talk about the AI that we 101 00:04:11,480 --> 00:04:13,840 had built because he's wanting to do something similar with his 102 00:04:13,840 --> 00:04:15,520 brand. But he's been coaching for 103 00:04:15,520 --> 00:04:19,399 forever. And he said, I really admire 104 00:04:19,399 --> 00:04:21,000 what you've done. It's been awesome to see your 105 00:04:21,000 --> 00:04:23,720 growth because he knew me before any of this was a reality. 106 00:04:24,400 --> 00:04:27,720 And conversations like that really kind of hit me different, 107 00:04:27,720 --> 00:04:30,240 man. It's like I when I'm in the 108 00:04:30,240 --> 00:04:33,600 thick of it every single day, I don't feel like I'm growing at 109 00:04:33,600 --> 00:04:35,720 the rate I should. But then when I connect with 110 00:04:35,720 --> 00:04:38,800 people that knew me before there was anything and they saw all 111 00:04:38,800 --> 00:04:41,960 that we've done over the years, like, it gives me hope. 112 00:04:41,960 --> 00:04:44,360 It makes me feel like, OK, we're actually building something 113 00:04:44,440 --> 00:04:46,320 that's tangible here that other people are noticing. 114 00:04:46,840 --> 00:04:49,000 And I'm just excited to keep building them, you know? 115 00:04:49,040 --> 00:04:53,320 I think, well, I think tallow in general is just a huge pivot 116 00:04:53,320 --> 00:04:54,640 point too. Yeah, Yeah. 117 00:04:54,640 --> 00:04:57,200 Well, I mean, it was a necessary pivot point because like we just 118 00:04:57,200 --> 00:05:01,680 signed a six month contract on cacao butter and the price that 119 00:05:01,680 --> 00:05:04,720 I'm paying for that is still exponentially higher than what 120 00:05:04,720 --> 00:05:07,400 it was when we started making the bricks way back in 2018. 121 00:05:08,080 --> 00:05:11,240 But if that was our exclusive ingredient for a fat source, we 122 00:05:11,240 --> 00:05:12,840 probably would not be in business. 123 00:05:12,880 --> 00:05:15,400 I mean, we, yeah, I don't think we'd be able to operate. 124 00:05:15,480 --> 00:05:18,400 None of the current prices. Yeah, I mean, it's just gone way 125 00:05:18,600 --> 00:05:21,840 off the charts. And people can look at cacao 126 00:05:21,840 --> 00:05:25,120 commodity trend lines and like, see how it's freaking spiked. 127 00:05:25,120 --> 00:05:26,160 I showed you the other day. It's just. 128 00:05:26,160 --> 00:05:28,920 Like it's crazy, It's crazy. We've even, I've even seen 129 00:05:28,920 --> 00:05:30,720 people that had said they're going to try to go out and just 130 00:05:30,720 --> 00:05:33,200 make their own, do their own. And they're like, holy crap, you 131 00:05:33,200 --> 00:05:35,960 can't find, yeah, you can find cheap ingredients, but you're 132 00:05:35,960 --> 00:05:37,680 getting cheap ingredients. Yeah. 133 00:05:37,680 --> 00:05:40,400 And I get wholesale pricing, even though they're expensive, I 134 00:05:40,400 --> 00:05:42,480 still get wholesale pricing. So for someone to try and like 135 00:05:42,480 --> 00:05:46,440 make the brick at home for them to pay retail pricing on like, 136 00:05:46,720 --> 00:05:48,880 you know, a handful of ingredients for like single 137 00:05:48,880 --> 00:05:52,560 serve, like it's significantly more expensive to make it than 138 00:05:52,560 --> 00:05:54,160 it is to buy it. Yeah, for sure. 139 00:05:54,160 --> 00:05:56,440 Which is is crazy. I mean, it is. 140 00:05:56,440 --> 00:06:00,520 It's all just crazy. But yeah, as far as other 141 00:06:00,760 --> 00:06:02,640 business stuff, there was another thing behind the scenes 142 00:06:02,640 --> 00:06:04,240 that you want to make sure we touched on what wasn't. 143 00:06:04,720 --> 00:06:05,800 I forget, but it might come to me. 144 00:06:06,360 --> 00:06:11,280 Yeah, I don't remember, but I've enjoyed these these little chat 145 00:06:11,280 --> 00:06:12,760 podcasts that we're doing, man, we've got yeah. 146 00:06:12,760 --> 00:06:15,280 Because we just, they just kind of go out and they don't have a 147 00:06:15,280 --> 00:06:16,920 yeah. No rhyme or reason. 148 00:06:17,000 --> 00:06:18,880 Cut, you know, path that we're going down. 149 00:06:18,880 --> 00:06:20,560 We don't have them in in a in a box. 150 00:06:20,560 --> 00:06:23,640 So yeah, wherever. We are, we could kind of like 151 00:06:23,640 --> 00:06:30,040 hash out real time for the next retreat, you know, kind of like 152 00:06:30,040 --> 00:06:31,840 put some ideas on. The ideas, yeah. 153 00:06:31,840 --> 00:06:34,560 I mean, it's not really anything set in stone. 154 00:06:34,800 --> 00:06:36,200 Yeah. So anybody listening, this is 155 00:06:36,200 --> 00:06:40,200 not official yet, but we're thinking about doing our next. 156 00:06:40,200 --> 00:06:43,840 We're doing like Savage retreats this year roughly for a year, 157 00:06:43,840 --> 00:06:48,200 once every quarter. We're thinking about doing the. 158 00:06:49,080 --> 00:06:52,240 The first one was with Bill Schindler and his wife. 159 00:06:52,240 --> 00:06:55,080 They flew out here. We did that and it was awesome. 160 00:06:55,080 --> 00:06:57,680 It was awesome. The second one was going to be a 161 00:06:57,760 --> 00:07:02,960 collaboration retreat alongside Bruce Mcglinn, but that schedule 162 00:07:02,960 --> 00:07:06,240 kind of fell on the wayside and we couldn't push it back 163 00:07:06,240 --> 00:07:09,800 flexibility wise. So that one we just decided to 164 00:07:10,200 --> 00:07:13,040 Nix and then we'll address that at a later date and do a hunting 165 00:07:13,040 --> 00:07:15,480 specific 1. So with the time that we have 166 00:07:15,480 --> 00:07:19,840 open, we're thinking about doing a bodybuilding specific retreat 167 00:07:20,880 --> 00:07:24,760 in potentially June. The reason we would do it in 168 00:07:24,760 --> 00:07:27,160 June is because there's another competition here local to 169 00:07:27,160 --> 00:07:30,480 Northwest Arkansas, promoted by Joe Wilson is a good friend of 170 00:07:30,480 --> 00:07:32,200 mine. We've done his posing seminars. 171 00:07:32,520 --> 00:07:35,600 He's going to be doing his Northwest Natural competition on 172 00:07:35,600 --> 00:07:40,160 June 14th, I think, which is a Saturday, and we're thinking 173 00:07:40,160 --> 00:07:43,760 about hosting our retreat the same weekend and then kind of 174 00:07:43,760 --> 00:07:47,120 wrapping his competition into the retreat so we can make the 175 00:07:47,120 --> 00:07:49,800 whole retreat specific to bodybuilding. 176 00:07:49,800 --> 00:07:52,920 Like from a judging perspective, what a judge is looking for. 177 00:07:52,920 --> 00:07:57,120 This is what I show, you know, is conducted like this is what 178 00:07:57,120 --> 00:07:59,760 prejudging means, is what a final night show means. 179 00:07:59,760 --> 00:08:01,440 This is what a running format means. 180 00:08:01,680 --> 00:08:03,160 This is what peak week could look like. 181 00:08:03,160 --> 00:08:04,720 This is what refeeds could look like. 182 00:08:04,720 --> 00:08:08,320 This is what, you know, posing tweaks, tanning, hair removal, 183 00:08:08,320 --> 00:08:11,440 like the full 9 yards. And then able to have another 184 00:08:11,440 --> 00:08:14,120 competition that we can demonstrate it to so that 185 00:08:14,120 --> 00:08:16,400 anybody wants to do our competition later in the year. 186 00:08:16,400 --> 00:08:18,480 They're already kind of going into it and knowing what to 187 00:08:18,480 --> 00:08:21,520 expect. So we're thinking about kind of 188 00:08:21,520 --> 00:08:24,000 rolling that into the June 14th weekend potentially. 189 00:08:24,000 --> 00:08:31,240 The only hiccup in June 14th is that is literally one or two 190 00:08:31,240 --> 00:08:34,919 weeks before Crystal is due with our second kiddo. 191 00:08:36,200 --> 00:08:39,720 So if we do it that weekend, then I can't expect her to 192 00:08:39,720 --> 00:08:41,120 really be involved with it at all. 193 00:08:41,760 --> 00:08:43,600 And. You might have to. 194 00:08:44,120 --> 00:08:48,440 If we were to have a baby, then I don't know what we would do 195 00:08:48,440 --> 00:08:49,640 there. I guess I would just like say, 196 00:08:49,640 --> 00:08:51,040 all right, Greg, you got it from here, ma'am. 197 00:08:51,040 --> 00:08:52,680 Yeah. Which would be which I would 198 00:08:52,680 --> 00:08:54,000 feel totally safe to do. Well. 199 00:08:54,240 --> 00:08:56,040 And I just looked, just wanted to make sure the date was right. 200 00:08:56,040 --> 00:08:58,000 Yeah, it's June 14th. It's in northwest Arkansas. 201 00:08:58,920 --> 00:09:02,080 I was planning on going to that, not being in that one, but 202 00:09:02,080 --> 00:09:03,680 spectating that one. So that'd be pretty cool. 203 00:09:03,680 --> 00:09:07,000 It'd be kind of like a field trip for people who have never 204 00:09:07,000 --> 00:09:08,680 competed, are thinking about competing. 205 00:09:08,680 --> 00:09:12,120 Just want to see it from the inside out and or people who 206 00:09:12,120 --> 00:09:14,880 have competed several times in the past, but you can see how a 207 00:09:14,880 --> 00:09:16,800 competition is run. We can go backstage. 208 00:09:16,800 --> 00:09:17,920 All that kind of stuff would be awesome. 209 00:09:18,160 --> 00:09:19,480 Yeah, I'm super excited about that. 210 00:09:19,880 --> 00:09:21,200 Hopefully we call. We should probably call Joe. 211 00:09:21,200 --> 00:09:22,960 Hopefully, he says yeah. Yeah, well, he actually tried to 212 00:09:22,960 --> 00:09:25,680 call me this weekend. So this is trippy, man. 213 00:09:25,680 --> 00:09:29,640 So I've got two people on my phone named Joe Wilson. 214 00:09:29,920 --> 00:09:32,280 All right, One is Joe from Omaha. 215 00:09:32,280 --> 00:09:34,640 I do a 50 mile March with. It's going to be doing my show. 216 00:09:35,160 --> 00:09:37,360 He texted me and said, hey, I need to get in touch with you 217 00:09:37,360 --> 00:09:38,600 for coaching. I'm like, awesome, man. 218 00:09:38,600 --> 00:09:41,200 Let's get something on the calendar and then I got Joe 219 00:09:41,200 --> 00:09:43,600 that's the promoter of the Northwest Natural show, who's 220 00:09:43,600 --> 00:09:46,080 also Joe Wilson. He saved in my phone. 221 00:09:46,080 --> 00:09:48,600 So I got to Joe Wilson's and I've got to communicate with 222 00:09:48,600 --> 00:09:50,480 both of them around this whole timeline. 223 00:09:50,480 --> 00:09:52,280 You're. Going to have to rename or 224 00:09:52,560 --> 00:09:54,120 differentiate. Well, that's what I don't get, 225 00:09:54,120 --> 00:09:59,280 man, because like I called Joe from Omaha to get him straight 226 00:09:59,280 --> 00:10:05,960 on the coaching and Joe Wilson from the promoter texted me. 227 00:10:05,960 --> 00:10:08,000 He's like, hey man, I'm on an airplane right now, but I'll 228 00:10:08,000 --> 00:10:10,920 call you when I get back. So I may have like the same 229 00:10:10,920 --> 00:10:13,960 numbers for both of them. So I don't even know what. 230 00:10:13,960 --> 00:10:15,760 You might not even be talking to the right people. 231 00:10:15,760 --> 00:10:18,080 So. It's funny because I'm texting 232 00:10:18,080 --> 00:10:20,600 these people and it's all about competition, so it's all 233 00:10:20,600 --> 00:10:22,960 relevant in their brain, but. You're going to something. 234 00:10:22,960 --> 00:10:24,800 But I'm going to mess. You're going to screw up. 235 00:10:25,120 --> 00:10:27,640 I need to like go into the details behind the account and 236 00:10:27,640 --> 00:10:28,800 make sure that their numbers aren't. 237 00:10:28,800 --> 00:10:32,400 Fact, one of the Joes is going to be like, hey, I'm going to 238 00:10:32,720 --> 00:10:34,880 mail you something like this or whatever and you're going to 239 00:10:34,880 --> 00:10:36,400 say, OK, cool. And you're going to be expecting 240 00:10:36,400 --> 00:10:38,920 something from different Joe and other Joe's going to send it or 241 00:10:38,920 --> 00:10:40,240 whatever. You're going to have some just 242 00:10:40,600 --> 00:10:42,480 backwards plans here. So yeah, and he does, and he's 243 00:10:42,520 --> 00:10:44,080 organized there. Crisscross for sure. 244 00:10:44,560 --> 00:10:45,960 But that I think would be super cool. 245 00:10:45,960 --> 00:10:48,800 So if we did that, we'd probably get like a big Airbnb again. 246 00:10:49,200 --> 00:10:51,800 And it would be local because the show's local, so it would be 247 00:10:51,880 --> 00:10:54,120 less travel time, which makes sense for Crystal being 248 00:10:54,120 --> 00:10:55,280 pregnant. Like, I don't want to be in a 249 00:10:55,280 --> 00:10:56,960 different state a week before she's due. 250 00:10:57,360 --> 00:11:00,600 Probably wouldn't be good. So we would do it local. 251 00:11:00,640 --> 00:11:03,720 We get a big Airbnb. Everybody that registered, I 252 00:11:03,720 --> 00:11:08,280 would cover their entrance fee to his show and then we would go 253 00:11:08,280 --> 00:11:09,960 to his show. I don't know if his is a running 254 00:11:09,960 --> 00:11:12,560 format or prejudging and finals. I don't know yet. 255 00:11:12,560 --> 00:11:15,000 I got to just talk to him. I think the majority of stuff 256 00:11:15,000 --> 00:11:17,040 nowadays is just. It's just a straight through 257 00:11:17,040 --> 00:11:18,800 format. Yeah, most of it is. 258 00:11:18,800 --> 00:11:23,280 Some of them have been doing all the categories or classes, like 259 00:11:23,280 --> 00:11:25,400 all the judging goes all the way through, then they take an 260 00:11:25,400 --> 00:11:27,400 intermission, then they come back and do all the awards. 261 00:11:27,880 --> 00:11:29,520 Wasn't that him? Was he talking about that? 262 00:11:29,520 --> 00:11:30,680 He was. Talking about that, that posed 263 00:11:30,720 --> 00:11:32,880 him. So, so that's, that's cool 264 00:11:32,880 --> 00:11:36,280 because it's kind of a bummer when you're in a competition or 265 00:11:36,280 --> 00:11:39,040 you're spectating a competition and a certain class comes out 266 00:11:39,040 --> 00:11:41,400 and it's a super stacked class. It's full of people. 267 00:11:41,560 --> 00:11:43,640 And then as soon as that class is done, half the audience 268 00:11:43,640 --> 00:11:45,680 leaves. And it's kind of, it's kind of 269 00:11:45,680 --> 00:11:49,080 like, oh man, like they're just here to support one person, 270 00:11:49,080 --> 00:11:51,520 which is totally understandable. But if you can do it with that 271 00:11:51,640 --> 00:11:54,680 type of format, then at least the rest of the show and all the 272 00:11:54,680 --> 00:11:57,080 other competitors and everybody gets a little bit more attention 273 00:11:57,080 --> 00:11:59,480 in the stage time as they deserve, you know? 274 00:11:59,640 --> 00:12:03,760 Totally agree. Yeah, when we did the retreat 275 00:12:03,760 --> 00:12:07,400 with Bill, we had like it was all about ancestral cooking. 276 00:12:07,400 --> 00:12:12,320 He's like a five star chef. So we had a lot of food which 277 00:12:12,320 --> 00:12:15,240 would we would want to eat a lot of food with this one. 278 00:12:15,320 --> 00:12:17,440 But I want to make it all bodybuilding specific. 279 00:12:17,880 --> 00:12:20,240 So what I was thinking, I haven't told you this yet, is we 280 00:12:20,240 --> 00:12:24,520 get that big Airbnb with a nice kitchen and then we figure out 281 00:12:24,520 --> 00:12:29,320 what everybody's macros are. And then we prep meals in batch 282 00:12:29,320 --> 00:12:33,080 for everybody's unique macros so they know exactly what they 283 00:12:33,080 --> 00:12:35,320 could eat to hit those numbers accurately. 284 00:12:35,800 --> 00:12:39,320 And then we could also, since it'll be probably Friday and 285 00:12:39,320 --> 00:12:42,480 Saturday's the show day and then Sunday's when we'll depart, we 286 00:12:42,480 --> 00:12:47,120 can treat Friday like a mock, you know, refeed day and make 287 00:12:47,120 --> 00:12:50,200 everybody like a keto refeed pizza like we would if it was an 288 00:12:50,200 --> 00:12:51,640 actual show that they were competing in. 289 00:12:52,280 --> 00:12:55,040 And they can kind of see what that looks like as if they were 290 00:12:55,040 --> 00:12:58,440 doing that next day's show. That's cool, I like the idea. 291 00:12:58,440 --> 00:12:59,680 There's a lot of work involved with. 292 00:12:59,680 --> 00:13:03,200 If you want to pre make everyone's meals for their 293 00:13:03,200 --> 00:13:06,120 macros, you you got some time in your in your. 294 00:13:06,120 --> 00:13:07,400 Pocket. It'll be a little intensive. 295 00:13:08,040 --> 00:13:10,800 Or, and we can even bring. OK, So what if we did? 296 00:13:11,400 --> 00:13:13,000 Here's another like spin off idea. 297 00:13:13,360 --> 00:13:18,080 What if you had just like a meal prep seminar where you had a few 298 00:13:18,080 --> 00:13:21,280 different food scales, You had all the ingredients ready to 299 00:13:21,280 --> 00:13:24,920 rock'n'roll, and they each like, OK, in order for me to hit my 300 00:13:24,920 --> 00:13:27,800 macros for this particular meal or this day or whatever, I'm 301 00:13:27,800 --> 00:13:29,840 gonna need 1 1/2 ounces of this shredded cheese. 302 00:13:29,840 --> 00:13:34,040 I'm gonna need, you know, 2 ounces of this, 54 grams of 303 00:13:34,040 --> 00:13:35,360 this. And show them how to use the 304 00:13:35,360 --> 00:13:37,520 scale, how to put things into a container. 305 00:13:37,800 --> 00:13:39,480 Yeah, I would definitely have them do a lot of it. 306 00:13:39,480 --> 00:13:40,840 Like it would be hands on for sure. 307 00:13:40,840 --> 00:13:44,320 Like, I'm not gonna be the cook behind the the kitchen on that. 308 00:13:45,160 --> 00:13:46,600 I could help them with the refeed pizza. 309 00:13:47,480 --> 00:13:51,040 But yeah, like I would, we would have like foods that everybody 310 00:13:51,040 --> 00:13:55,120 would benefit from and they would just weigh everything out 311 00:13:55,120 --> 00:13:56,960 to hit their specific nutritional goals. 312 00:13:56,960 --> 00:13:58,920 That'd be awesome. You know, just. 313 00:13:58,920 --> 00:14:00,640 Just the staples. You can just meat, cheese, eggs, 314 00:14:00,640 --> 00:14:02,600 dairy. Yeah, you know that kind of. 315 00:14:02,600 --> 00:14:05,040 Stuff, I feel like so many people are just going flying 316 00:14:05,040 --> 00:14:07,960 blind with competitions. So if we made a retreat that 317 00:14:07,960 --> 00:14:11,200 like dipped people's toes in when they weren't even in a 318 00:14:11,200 --> 00:14:14,040 prep, maybe they wouldn't be. Who knows, depending on what 319 00:14:14,040 --> 00:14:15,280 they've gotten and. Some of the people that are in 320 00:14:15,280 --> 00:14:17,120 the tribe or the challenge are, yeah. 321 00:14:17,240 --> 00:14:18,160 Technically in. For sure. 322 00:14:19,280 --> 00:14:21,880 But giving them like a, a taste of it, you know, several months 323 00:14:21,880 --> 00:14:25,600 before their show where they can like see the competition, see 324 00:14:25,600 --> 00:14:28,360 what the refeeds look like, see what the night before consists 325 00:14:28,360 --> 00:14:31,320 of, like all of that stuff. I feel like that would be that 326 00:14:31,320 --> 00:14:34,400 would just calm their nerves tremendously before competing. 327 00:14:34,400 --> 00:14:36,440 I would have loved something like that before I did a show. 328 00:14:36,520 --> 00:14:38,800 Yeah, like. There's seminars you can go to 329 00:14:38,840 --> 00:14:42,880 and you can learn what to expect, what to do, what not to 330 00:14:42,880 --> 00:14:45,320 do, things that the venue is going to need you to do, things 331 00:14:45,320 --> 00:14:47,600 that you're going to have to take into consideration for peak 332 00:14:47,600 --> 00:14:50,600 week, all that kind of stuff. But until you actually like go 333 00:14:50,600 --> 00:14:54,960 through it and see it, it's, it gives you anxiety when you're, 334 00:14:55,160 --> 00:14:56,520 you know, your first show, like holy cow. 335 00:14:56,640 --> 00:14:58,640 And Ralph was just saying this morning he's like, Oh yeah, I'm 336 00:14:58,680 --> 00:15:00,960 really, I, what did he, what was he doing? 337 00:15:02,560 --> 00:15:06,240 Something about competition prep or oh, he was looking up poses. 338 00:15:06,400 --> 00:15:08,600 He was saying he's looking up some of his poses that he's 339 00:15:08,600 --> 00:15:09,960 going to have to do for his show. 340 00:15:10,240 --> 00:15:12,600 And he's never done a show and he's like, wow, this is really, 341 00:15:12,960 --> 00:15:14,640 really crazy. Like I'm totally doing something 342 00:15:14,640 --> 00:15:17,080 I've never done before. This is something I never 343 00:15:17,080 --> 00:15:19,080 fathomed him I would ever even consider doing. 344 00:15:19,080 --> 00:15:23,680 Like this is totally Greek. So there's anxiety involved with 345 00:15:23,680 --> 00:15:24,920 your first show. There's like, you don't know 346 00:15:24,920 --> 00:15:27,440 what's going on. You don't know what you're doing 347 00:15:27,440 --> 00:15:29,560 backstage. Everything is just confusing, 348 00:15:29,560 --> 00:15:31,760 like your first day at school, first day at college, first day 349 00:15:31,760 --> 00:15:34,240 at anything you know. But that's what we're here for. 350 00:15:34,400 --> 00:15:35,720 Just kind.

They just have to get it set up. 383 00:16:57,160 --> 00:16:58,840 Yeah, it's kind of tripping me. I wrote about them in my 384 00:16:58,840 --> 00:16:59,440 newsletter. I. 385 00:17:00,000 --> 00:17:02,240 Saw that? Because it's like how many 386 00:17:02,240 --> 00:17:09,319 people work a job they hate and then retire and then like, I 387 00:17:09,319 --> 00:17:11,839 mean, they retired 6062. I think my folks retired at 388 00:17:11,839 --> 00:17:15,359 6060. Some people retire what 5557? 389 00:17:15,359 --> 00:17:16,880 I don't know what the typical retirement age. 390 00:17:16,920 --> 00:17:20,280 Is usually 6568 even even older for a lot of people? 391 00:17:20,280 --> 00:17:23,319 Yeah, but it's like, at that point, if you're healthy, I 392 00:17:23,319 --> 00:17:26,880 mean, you've got like another 30-40 years left of life ahead 393 00:17:26,880 --> 00:17:29,520 of you. How many people, like, just sit 394 00:17:29,520 --> 00:17:32,120 on their front porch, prop their feet up and watch Netflix, smoke 395 00:17:32,120 --> 00:17:34,920 cigarettes the rest of life or go to the casino and live on 396 00:17:34,920 --> 00:17:37,040 oxygen smoking a cigarette? You know, like, that's just not 397 00:17:37,040 --> 00:17:38,560 the life that I want to live for myself. 398 00:17:38,920 --> 00:17:41,120 I don't want to like, I want to make a life that I don't. 399 00:17:41,120 --> 00:17:43,840 Want to retire from? Yeah, first and foremost. 400 00:17:43,880 --> 00:17:48,360 But like, I'm proud of my folks for doing something that they 401 00:17:48,360 --> 00:17:51,640 want to do. It's scary, it's bold, it's 402 00:17:51,640 --> 00:17:54,360 courageous, but like, they're going to freaking sail around 403 00:17:54,360 --> 00:17:56,680 the world, man, like. Imagine the memories, the 404 00:17:56,680 --> 00:18:00,480 stories, the memories, like everyone else was just sitting 405 00:18:00,480 --> 00:18:03,520 around, like you said, you know, just not doing much. 406 00:18:03,720 --> 00:18:04,880 Yeah, yeah. I don't know. 407 00:18:05,440 --> 00:18:07,320 I watched the movie. Not about climbing Mount 408 00:18:07,320 --> 00:18:09,400 Everest. So now I'm going to go climb. 409 00:18:09,400 --> 00:18:10,880 That's. Why you asked me to go climb my 410 00:18:10,880 --> 00:18:12,920 Yeah. I thought that somebody at 411 00:18:12,920 --> 00:18:15,160 church was like, hey man, I just watched a movie on climb Mount 412 00:18:15,160 --> 00:18:16,400 Everest. You want to go climb it with me? 413 00:18:16,440 --> 00:18:17,800 He's like, let's go to Devil's Den first. 414 00:18:19,280 --> 00:18:20,600 That was you went there this past week. 415 00:18:20,600 --> 00:18:22,680 That's where I was, Yeah. I got AI. 416 00:18:22,680 --> 00:18:24,560 Had a little over 6 miles hiked there. 417 00:18:24,560 --> 00:18:27,200 It's one of my favorite spots. I just found it randomly last 418 00:18:27,200 --> 00:18:28,480 summer. I was just kind of Googling some 419 00:18:28,480 --> 00:18:29,680 places to go. It's a State Park. 420 00:18:29,960 --> 00:18:31,360 What's the trailhead that you took? 421 00:18:32,040 --> 00:18:34,440 There's several trail heads actually, there's there's the 422 00:18:34,800 --> 00:18:38,000 the big overlook that'll take you up and then you get a pretty 423 00:18:38,000 --> 00:18:39,480 sweet view at the top of that one. 424 00:18:39,480 --> 00:18:41,280 There's a couple different ways you can come back down. 425 00:18:41,280 --> 00:18:42,960 There's some some loops up there. 426 00:18:42,960 --> 00:18:46,120 Then there's like actually the Devil's den loop. 427 00:18:46,160 --> 00:18:49,040 I think it's just a mile or something, but it goes routes 428 00:18:49,040 --> 00:18:51,240 you up through some pretty crazy terrain. 429 00:18:51,240 --> 00:18:55,160 Like if you have a UN unsupervised child with you, 430 00:18:55,240 --> 00:18:58,440 like you better keep an eye on them because there's some pretty 431 00:18:58,440 --> 00:19:02,120 sketchy spots and they say right as you enter, like we to 432 00:19:02,120 --> 00:19:04,080 preserve the beauty and yadda, yadda. 433 00:19:04,360 --> 00:19:07,800 We don't have railings and certain things in place. 434 00:19:07,800 --> 00:19:09,480 So you need to keep an eye on people. 435 00:19:10,040 --> 00:19:13,080 And there's some pretty, pretty crazy looking caves in there. 436 00:19:13,080 --> 00:19:15,800 There's a couple waterfalls, there's some bridges. 437 00:19:16,040 --> 00:19:18,400 It's pretty steep in some areas. It's gets pretty technical. 438 00:19:18,680 --> 00:19:21,200 So I did that loop. I did the overlook loop and then 439 00:19:21,200 --> 00:19:23,480 there's another loop that routes down around the river and lake 440 00:19:23,480 --> 00:19:25,840 and everything comes over. A huge draw drawbridge and 441 00:19:25,840 --> 00:19:28,400 everything. While I was there hiking Devil's 442 00:19:28,400 --> 00:19:32,400 Den, they had a race going and like they were running. 443 00:19:32,400 --> 00:19:33,640 Like a bicycle. Race. 444 00:19:33,640 --> 00:19:35,880 No, like a running race, like a trail race. 445 00:19:36,360 --> 00:19:40,480 And so I was just walking and I saw someone just go sprinting 446 00:19:40,480 --> 00:19:44,360 through the woods with a number on their chest, and I could hear 447 00:19:44,360 --> 00:19:46,400 some cowbells and stuff ringing off in the distance. 448 00:19:46,400 --> 00:19:48,440 And then as it got closer, there's a huge pavilion. 449 00:19:48,440 --> 00:19:50,520 They had loud music, they had food. 450 00:19:50,520 --> 00:19:53,000 There was, it was pretty cool. And these guys were coming 451 00:19:53,080 --> 00:19:56,400 running around this corner and they'd come across this big long 452 00:19:56,880 --> 00:19:58,760 drawbridge, drawstring, whatever bridge. 453 00:19:59,120 --> 00:20:01,040 And I had to take that same bridge. 454 00:20:01,080 --> 00:20:03,560 So I here I am walking across this bridge and everyone's like 455 00:20:03,560 --> 00:20:05,800 ringing their cowbells and hooting and hollering for me to 456 00:20:05,800 --> 00:20:07,240 come across. I'm like, I'm not racing, I'm 457 00:20:07,240 --> 00:20:08,400 not racing. And they're like, that's all 458 00:20:08,400 --> 00:20:10,480 right, help yourself to a free breakfast anyway. 459 00:20:10,480 --> 00:20:13,640 So they're like free pancakes and bacon and sausage and eggs 460 00:20:13,640 --> 00:20:15,280 and all this difference. I didn't eat any of course, but. 461 00:20:16,840 --> 00:20:18,840 That would be something we could get into, like doing a trail 462 00:20:18,840 --> 00:20:20,640 race. I did a tough Mudder one time. 463 00:20:20,640 --> 00:20:22,520 I did a not a Spartan race. There was another one. 464 00:20:22,520 --> 00:20:25,200 I don't forget what it's called, but those are pretty cool. 465 00:20:25,320 --> 00:20:26,760 You can do those in a ketogenic state. 466 00:20:26,760 --> 00:20:29,600 Fasted state, definitely doable. I would be all for it man. 467 00:20:29,600 --> 00:20:31,840 I gotta get my feet situation figured out. 468 00:20:32,560 --> 00:20:34,760 Yeah, 'cause you got to hike 20 miles this week and next weekend 469 00:20:34,880 --> 00:20:36,120 one of. These, well, I do that 50 mile 470 00:20:36,120 --> 00:20:37,920 March every year to raise money for vets. 471 00:20:37,920 --> 00:20:41,240 And yeah, they, I've been at four years and I've never had to 472 00:20:41,240 --> 00:20:43,680 do a qualifying March because I've been at four years in a 473 00:20:43,680 --> 00:20:45,200 row. But they're making everybody do 474 00:20:45,200 --> 00:20:49,000 a qualifier ruck now. So I've got to do 20 miles, I 475 00:20:49,000 --> 00:20:53,400 guess in the next two weeks at some point and and not 20 miles 476 00:20:53,400 --> 00:20:55,320 over two weeks. Like I got to just pick a day 477 00:20:55,320 --> 00:20:59,040 and document doing 20 miles to finish in one setting and 478 00:20:59,040 --> 00:21:01,760 maintain a pace of like 3.2 miles an hour or something like 479 00:21:01,760 --> 00:21:03,400 that. So it's not going to be crazy. 480 00:21:03,400 --> 00:21:05,720 Like I, I, I don't, I'm not worried about it, but like the 481 00:21:05,720 --> 00:21:07,960 time I need to just figure out why I'm going to do it. 482 00:21:08,680 --> 00:21:12,200 So I bought a pair of hiking boots yesterday that are not 483 00:21:12,200 --> 00:21:15,600 zero drop, not wide toe box, which I've transitioned on my 484 00:21:15,600 --> 00:21:18,960 footwear too. So we'll see if these are good 485 00:21:18,960 --> 00:21:23,240 or not, who knows. But that got me thinking because 486 00:21:23,320 --> 00:21:25,680 I, I wanted to see if you wanted to hike this this weekend, but 487 00:21:25,680 --> 00:21:29,480 you're going to be gone. But making this whole full 488 00:21:29,480 --> 00:21:32,800 circle thing, I love hiking. I don't ever take the time to do 489 00:21:32,800 --> 00:21:36,080 it, but I love hiking. And I thought about taking the 490 00:21:36,080 --> 00:21:38,400 rig, which we're not really even using that much for business 491 00:21:38,400 --> 00:21:40,600 anymore because we're doing UPS pickup. 492 00:21:41,560 --> 00:21:43,760 I can get the rig actually finished out, fixed up. 493 00:21:44,200 --> 00:21:46,680 And then I can just like go to different trailheads with like 494 00:21:46,680 --> 00:21:49,520 my cot and everything in there. Like Crystal and Rigel can come. 495 00:21:49,760 --> 00:21:52,120 I mean like go camp out there. They can have a little home 496 00:21:52,120 --> 00:21:54,200 base. And then I just go hike on these 497 00:21:54,200 --> 00:21:54,920 trailheads and. Stuff. 498 00:21:54,960 --> 00:21:56,640 And that was one of the other cool things. 499 00:21:56,640 --> 00:21:59,800 Devil's Den State Park. They, they do have a campground 500 00:22:00,160 --> 00:22:03,560 for tent camping. They've also got several cabins 501 00:22:03,680 --> 00:22:05,920 that you can rent. They've got a little cafe, 502 00:22:05,920 --> 00:22:08,680 they've got a little store. They've got a actually a public 503 00:22:08,680 --> 00:22:10,200 pool. Yeah, like a park too, right? 504 00:22:10,200 --> 00:22:12,040 Yeah, I mean. It's, it's cool, yeah, it's, 505 00:22:12,080 --> 00:22:14,040 it's really, really cool. So I'm thinking that at some 506 00:22:14,040 --> 00:22:16,200 point it'd be cool to just go rent one of those little cabins 507 00:22:16,200 --> 00:22:18,960 and spend a week in there 'cause there's all tons of trails like. 508 00:22:19,600 --> 00:22:22,640 What are you doing next weekend? After that I don't know. 509 00:22:22,920 --> 00:22:25,080 Well, this weekend you're gone. Next weekend you don't have 510 00:22:25,080 --> 00:22:25,720 anything planned. I. 511 00:22:26,960 --> 00:22:28,720 Don't think anything is hard planned. 512 00:22:28,720 --> 00:22:31,240 We've got a concert that we're going to go to on Friday night, 513 00:22:31,240 --> 00:22:32,960 but that shouldn't interfere with anything really. 514 00:22:33,240 --> 00:22:35,400 Well, let's see, let's put our let's look at our calendars 515 00:22:35,400 --> 00:22:37,920 because I need to figure out when I'm on a hike 20 miles and 516 00:22:37,920 --> 00:22:40,840 I think I can do it. What? 517 00:22:41,080 --> 00:22:43,760 What happens if you don't? They literally like pull your 518 00:22:43,760 --> 00:22:45,440 name out of the running like you just. 519 00:22:45,440 --> 00:22:48,160 Came out, I guess I don't know, but I mean I I could probably 520 00:22:48,160 --> 00:22:50,760 pull some strings 'cause I I'm really good friends with the 521 00:22:50,760 --> 00:22:52,080 well. That's I mean, yeah, I mean, you 522 00:22:52,400 --> 00:22:56,840 like in Keterberg is one of the yeah, you supply all the hikers 523 00:22:56,840 --> 00:22:58,480 with Keterberg like it's kind of a big. 524 00:22:59,080 --> 00:23:00,200 Yeah, so I don't know. I don't know. 525 00:23:00,200 --> 00:23:01,520 I mean, I get where they're coming from though 'cause I 526 00:23:01,520 --> 00:23:04,040 think they had over 400 registers this year and they're 527 00:23:04,040 --> 00:23:05,880 trying to just make sure everybody's like legitimately 528 00:23:05,880 --> 00:23:09,480 capable. But it's, it's Wildman like 529 00:23:09,480 --> 00:23:12,320 endurance stuff. Like it's so much of a mental 530 00:23:12,320 --> 00:23:14,280 sport. Like and when we start these 50 531 00:23:14,280 --> 00:23:16,240 mile marches, I'll look at people that are in the lineup 532 00:23:16,240 --> 00:23:18,600 and I'm like, man, there's no way they're going to be able to 533 00:23:18,600 --> 00:23:21,120 finish 50 miles and they freaking rock it. 534 00:23:21,120 --> 00:23:23,440 They're they looking less fatigued than I am at the end of 535 00:23:23,440 --> 00:23:24,680 it. And there's other guys that look 536 00:23:24,680 --> 00:23:25,760 at that are like other guy's in shape. 537 00:23:25,760 --> 00:23:28,040 He's going to have no problem. And then he drops out, you know? 538 00:23:28,040 --> 00:23:30,840 So like, yeah, you can't just, I mean, you can't judge a book by 539 00:23:30,840 --> 00:23:33,120 its cover with these for sure. So that's, that's probably 540 00:23:33,120 --> 00:23:35,520 exactly why they're doing it. It's 'cause they, they don't 541 00:23:35,520 --> 00:23:37,920 care what you look like or come across as, they want to make 542 00:23:37,920 --> 00:23:40,520 sure you're physically capable so they don't have a huge drop 543 00:23:40,520 --> 00:23:42,280 out rate. They want to have as many people 544 00:23:42,280 --> 00:23:43,640 crossing that finish line as possible. 545 00:23:43,760 --> 00:23:45,080 And how long does the 50 miles take? 546 00:23:45,680 --> 00:23:48,720 They do it over 22 hours. So they do 22 hours to represent 547 00:23:48,720 --> 00:23:50,400 the 22 vets that take their lives daily. 548 00:23:50,400 --> 00:23:55,280 And they start at like 3:00 or 4:00 PM on Saturday, and then it 549 00:23:55,280 --> 00:24:00,160 goes until 22 hours later on Sunday afternoon, I guess one or 550 00:24:00,160 --> 00:24:03,640 two. And then, yeah, man, it's, it's 551 00:24:03,640 --> 00:24:05,240 through the night. Like you're hiking on the 552 00:24:05,240 --> 00:24:07,080 shoulder of the highway. That's the that's the worst 553 00:24:07,080 --> 00:24:08,320 part. Like you're on the shoulder of 554 00:24:08,320 --> 00:24:09,840 the highway. So you got traffic the whole 555 00:24:09,840 --> 00:24:13,200 time. And it's just like all that road 556 00:24:13,200 --> 00:24:14,840 debris that you're walking on top of. 557 00:24:15,360 --> 00:24:18,120 So it's kind of, I mean, my feet are jacked up by the end of it. 558 00:24:18,680 --> 00:24:20,520 But it's gotten bigger every year, seems like. 559 00:24:20,520 --> 00:24:22,040 Oh yeah, there's just more and more publicity. 560 00:24:22,280 --> 00:24:24,280 You guys are raising more and more money every single year. 561 00:24:24,280 --> 00:24:25,600 It's pretty awesome. Yeah, it is. 562 00:24:25,600 --> 00:24:27,960 It is cool. Are they going to do like a vet 563 00:24:27,960 --> 00:24:29,720 community like. Yeah, they're building. 564 00:24:29,720 --> 00:24:31,000 They're building. They've already started like 565 00:24:31,000 --> 00:24:32,480 they've broken ground all. They've got some of the 566 00:24:32,480 --> 00:24:33,920 structures built. So they're building. 567 00:24:34,560 --> 00:24:37,080 The first couple years they took all the funds, they donated it 568 00:24:37,080 --> 00:24:39,800 to like two or three different organizations for vets. 569 00:24:40,640 --> 00:24:43,360 Now they've been putting all the money into, they bought some 570 00:24:43,360 --> 00:24:46,160 land. They're building like little 571 00:24:46,160 --> 00:24:50,400 tiny homes to transition people off the streets, put them in the 572 00:24:50,400 --> 00:24:53,000 home, teach them a skill set, and then integrate them into 573 00:24:53,000 --> 00:24:55,360 society. So it's been, and it's pretty 574 00:24:55,360 --> 00:24:56,480 cool what they're doing. Like, I'm. 575 00:24:56,560 --> 00:24:58,280 I'm proud to be a part of it for sure. 576 00:24:58,280 --> 00:25:00,840 Yeah. Yeah. 50 miles, man. 577 00:25:00,840 --> 00:25:03,560 It's no joke, you know? One straight shot cuz you guys 578 00:25:03,680 --> 00:25:05,920 do you guys average right around 3 miles an hour is it? 579 00:25:06,120 --> 00:25:08,880 A pretty, yeah, I think, I think it's right around 3.2 is the 580 00:25:08,880 --> 00:25:12,800 pace they try and maintain. And like they'll do like every 7 581 00:25:12,800 --> 00:25:15,520 to 11 miles, they'll do like a little stop where you can prop 582 00:25:15,520 --> 00:25:18,920 your feet up, get something to drink and eat and then, you 583 00:25:18,920 --> 00:25:20,800 know, you just start back going again. 584 00:25:20,840 --> 00:25:21,200 Yeah. So. 585 00:25:21,320 --> 00:25:23,640 Every two to three hours you get a little low rest. 586 00:25:23,840 --> 00:25:26,360 Yeah, yeah. And then, but I mean, that's 587 00:25:27,000 --> 00:25:28,160 that's kind of like the hard part, man. 588 00:25:28,160 --> 00:25:31,040 There's just one stop in the middle of the night in La Noma, 589 00:25:31,440 --> 00:25:34,960 and it's from Lincoln to Omaha. Omaha Lincoln, one or the other. 590 00:25:35,160 --> 00:25:38,000 But then you like stop there. It's like 2:00 in the morning. 591 00:25:38,000 --> 00:25:40,280 It's dark start. It's like kind of cold because 592 00:25:40,280 --> 00:25:42,760 you're all sweaty and like the wind's blowing. 593 00:25:42,760 --> 00:25:47,240 So you're, you're just cold and you've got like the longest 594 00:25:47,240 --> 00:25:49,840 break then. So people try and like doze off 595 00:25:49,840 --> 00:25:53,440 for a few minutes, but then like you wake up and it's still dark, 596 00:25:53,440 --> 00:25:57,280 it's still cold and you've only slept for 20 minutes and like 597 00:25:57,360 --> 00:25:58,960 you're all stiff. Like that's enough. 598 00:25:59,040 --> 00:26:01,320 Like, it's just enough time to like, let your body start 599 00:26:01,320 --> 00:26:03,680 getting stiff and you got to like, break it all loose again. 600 00:26:04,080 --> 00:26:06,600 So yeah, it's, it's rough. Do people drop out? 601 00:26:06,600 --> 00:26:07,560 At that point? They're just like. 602 00:26:07,720 --> 00:26:10,680 Yeah, a lot of people stop. But I mean, like last year when 603 00:26:10,680 --> 00:26:13,120 I was doing him, you know, I was, I was walking behind this 604 00:26:13,120 --> 00:26:16,440 one woman and she had just like these massive bubbles of like, 605 00:26:16,440 --> 00:26:18,520 blisters on her all up and down her legs. 606 00:26:18,520 --> 00:26:20,640 Like, like huge, like as big as this freaking coffee cup. 607 00:26:20,640 --> 00:26:24,840 And it was just like all this skin, heat, blisters, all full 608 00:26:24,840 --> 00:26:28,280 of fluid. And I mean, you see some gnarly 609 00:26:28,280 --> 00:26:31,080 blisters on toes, I mean. I can't imagine. 610 00:26:31,160 --> 00:26:33,320 Yeah, like it's, it's, it's rough, man. 611 00:26:33,320 --> 00:26:35,800 There was this one like one year I did it and there was this guy. 612 00:26:35,800 --> 00:26:38,440 There was like 2 miles to go. Like the last two miles, they 613 00:26:38,440 --> 00:26:41,800 stopped at this bass pro shops. They give everybody one last 614 00:26:41,800 --> 00:26:44,440 chance, like put their shirt on, heal up a little bit. 615 00:26:44,440 --> 00:26:48,640 And then we walk the last two miles, which is all uphill to 616 00:26:48,640 --> 00:26:50,480 like where all the veterans are there waiting for us. 617 00:26:51,320 --> 00:26:55,400 And well, there was 2 miles left to go and this one guy's feet 618 00:26:55,400 --> 00:27:00,120 were just freaking rough, man. Like just bleeding, massive 619 00:27:00,120 --> 00:27:04,120 blisters everywhere, toenails popping off just like in pain. 620 00:27:04,640 --> 00:27:07,240 And he's like, man, I'm, I'm not going to make it. 621 00:27:07,240 --> 00:27:08,920 I'm not going to make it. I got that beside him. 622 00:27:08,920 --> 00:27:12,080 And I'm like, man, let me tell you something, you know, such 623 00:27:12,080 --> 00:27:14,840 thing as a part time savage, you know, and. 624 00:27:15,120 --> 00:27:17,320 He punch you. No, he got fired up, man. 625 00:27:17,320 --> 00:27:20,240 And like he, he made it through the finish line like he had, you 626 00:27:20,240 --> 00:27:23,120 know, at the end of it, he had some God, you know, helping him 627 00:27:23,120 --> 00:27:25,240 across the finish line. But he freaking made it sweet. 628 00:27:26,160 --> 00:27:27,880 So it's pretty cool. You see what people are made of 629 00:27:27,880 --> 00:27:29,160 in those moments for sure. Because he. 630 00:27:29,200 --> 00:27:30,720 Could get He could have given up easy. 631 00:27:30,720 --> 00:27:33,800 Oh, yeah, man, yeah, there there was this other guy last year who 632 00:27:33,800 --> 00:27:37,320 was a little heavier set guy and we were going to that last 633 00:27:37,320 --> 00:27:39,760 little hill. There's probably like 300 yards 634 00:27:39,760 --> 00:27:44,000 left to go and he almost like stops with 300 yards left to go. 635 00:27:44,400 --> 00:27:47,200 And then Jay, Shane and some other guy got on either side of 636 00:27:47,200 --> 00:27:49,840 him and put an arm around him and they helped carry him up the 637 00:27:49,840 --> 00:27:52,080 last 300 yards. I think I saw some pictures from 638 00:27:52,080 --> 00:27:53,560 that. Yeah, they were helping him. 639 00:27:53,840 --> 00:27:55,320 Yeah, I mean, it's, it's just crazy, man. 640 00:27:55,320 --> 00:27:57,400 Like it's all mine. I said like the, the physical 641 00:27:57,400 --> 00:28:00,160 body is capable of so much more than people give it credit for. 642 00:28:00,160 --> 00:28:02,160 That's why that's one of the reasons I've stayed natural 643 00:28:02,160 --> 00:28:05,600 because like people are just so quick to look for the shortcut, 644 00:28:06,000 --> 00:28:09,080 but like we don't even tap into our 100% potential. 645 00:28:09,080 --> 00:28:11,240 And Goggins talks about this. He's like, people normally 646 00:28:11,240 --> 00:28:13,840 operate at like 40%. There's like a whole other 60% 647 00:28:13,840 --> 00:28:16,680 that people don't tap into. But like when I do that 50 mile 648 00:28:16,680 --> 00:28:19,040 March, I get a taste of it. When I do that last little bit 649 00:28:19,040 --> 00:28:20,960 of competition prep, I get a taste of it. 650 00:28:21,400 --> 00:28:23,600 You know, when you're freaking hiking up Mount Everest, I would 651 00:28:23,600 --> 00:28:26,400 imagine you get a taste of it. When I'm hiking up a freaking 652 00:28:26,400 --> 00:28:29,320 mountain, elk hunting in Colorado and I've got 40 lbs of 653 00:28:29,320 --> 00:28:31,120 elk on my back and it's the middle of the night and I'm 654 00:28:31,120 --> 00:28:32,960 going over deadfall, I get a taste of it. 655 00:28:33,360 --> 00:28:36,160 But like you got to seek that out because we live in a day and 656 00:28:36,160 --> 00:28:38,440 age where that doesn't just come naturally. 657 00:28:38,440 --> 00:28:41,720 Nobody wakes up wondering if they're going to freaking, you 658 00:28:41,720 --> 00:28:45,400 know, be tooth and nail gritting it out today because we live in 659 00:28:45,400 --> 00:28:46,880 this soft time. I was just gonna. 660 00:28:46,880 --> 00:28:49,440 Say the world is soft. Yeah, man, the world is crazy 661 00:28:49,440 --> 00:28:50,360 soft. You gotta just. 662 00:28:50,360 --> 00:28:52,360 Wants the shortcut they're. Just you gotta have that 663 00:28:52,360 --> 00:28:54,640 hardship though, man. You gotta have that self-imposed 664 00:28:54,640 --> 00:28:55,720 hardship. You gotta look for it. 665 00:28:55,720 --> 00:28:59,760 You gotta seek it out, whether that's a prep or a March or a 666 00:28:59,760 --> 00:29:03,240 marathon or a, you know, whatever, a hunting trip, an 667 00:29:03,240 --> 00:29:05,120 extended hunting trip, like you gotta find it. 668 00:29:05,360 --> 00:29:07,800 You gotta seek it out. And when it's there and when it 669 00:29:07,800 --> 00:29:10,360 sucks and when you're like on the verge of quitting, you gotta 670 00:29:10,360 --> 00:29:14,480 remember why you started. And then once that's over, then 671 00:29:14,480 --> 00:29:16,360 you were, you just levelled up in life, you know you. 672 00:29:16,400 --> 00:29:18,080 Raised your bar? Yeah, your bar. 673 00:29:18,200 --> 00:29:19,480 You just keep raising your own bar. 674 00:29:19,720 --> 00:29:22,480 But now imagine if you're feeling all of that and then you 675 00:29:22,480 --> 00:29:25,360 do quit. It becomes that much easier to 676 00:29:25,360 --> 00:29:28,320 quit the second time. The third time, the 4th time 677 00:29:28,520 --> 00:29:31,240 when you're trying to get, you know, fat loss and you're trying 678 00:29:31,240 --> 00:29:33,960 to dial in your macros and you've got target macros and you 679 00:29:33,960 --> 00:29:36,560 deviate one time, it becomes much easier to deviate a second 680 00:29:36,560 --> 00:29:38,240 time. And a third time, it's like 681 00:29:39,000 --> 00:29:43,040 those moments when nobody's watching is when you figure out 682 00:29:43,040 --> 00:29:46,200 what you're made of and what you're capable of and where your 683 00:29:47,120 --> 00:29:50,320 your threshold lies. And you got to like bust through 684 00:29:50,320 --> 00:29:53,000 that and level up. And then your perspective shifts 685 00:29:53,440 --> 00:29:57,200 and you're like your idea of what is hard shifts and what you 686 00:29:57,200 --> 00:29:59,760 previously thought was hard is now just part of the day you. 687 00:29:59,760 --> 00:30:01,520 Know now it's just normal, yeah. Yep. 688 00:30:03,000 --> 00:30:05,040 Yeah, quit being weak. Quit being weak. 689 00:30:05,040 --> 00:30:06,480 Quit being weak. Ain't no such thing as a part 690 00:30:06,480 --> 00:30:09,000 time savage. And even if you don't seek out 691 00:30:09,000 --> 00:30:13,280 the hard and the hard finds you, the way you deal with it totally 692 00:30:13,400 --> 00:30:15,200 sets you up for how your future's gonna go. 693 00:30:15,280 --> 00:30:17,240 Yeah, 100%, man. Like the way you deal with 694 00:30:17,240 --> 00:30:20,560 anything is the key. The way you deal with anything 695 00:30:20,560 --> 00:30:24,200 is how you deal with everything. So I like this man. 696 00:30:24,200 --> 00:30:26,400 Little, little mindset. Yeah, cheers on that. 697 00:30:26,400 --> 00:30:28,440 What's your Cup Cup saying?

We are, we are. 702 00:30:39,040 --> 00:30:40,600 This is. I just got water in it though. 703 00:30:40,920 --> 00:30:44,360 I got coffee. I actually tried to reducing my 704 00:30:44,360 --> 00:30:47,520 coffee intake this week. I you're just trying to drop 705 00:30:47,520 --> 00:30:50,640 your caffeine or what? No, I just feel like too much 706 00:30:50,640 --> 00:30:54,040 coffee messed with my stomach, so I dropped it from 2 cups down 707 00:30:54,040 --> 00:30:57,560 to 1 cup and or maybe I'll just try spacing. 708 00:30:57,560 --> 00:30:59,600 If I have two cups back-to-back, I don't feel good. 709 00:30:59,920 --> 00:31:01,520 Yeah. So I might just try spacing it 710 00:31:01,520 --> 00:31:02,880 out today and see if that's better. 711 00:31:02,960 --> 00:31:05,520 And then if it's not, then I'll just do 1 cup a day. 712 00:31:06,400 --> 00:31:10,080 It's a pretty big cup, granted, but like, yeah, I don't think 713 00:31:10,080 --> 00:31:11,520 it's the caffeine. I think it's just coffee in 714 00:31:11,520 --> 00:31:14,320 general, man. I think coffee in general messes 715 00:31:14,320 --> 00:31:15,240 with me if I have too much of it. 716 00:31:15,240 --> 00:31:18,120 Could be, could be. I mean a lot of people are 717 00:31:18,120 --> 00:31:21,480 affected GI wise by coffee. Yeah. 718 00:31:21,480 --> 00:31:23,720 So that's true. All right. 719 00:31:23,840 --> 00:31:26,520 Well, today we're going to be packaging bricks all day. 720 00:31:26,560 --> 00:31:28,400 Yes, we are. Probably all day tomorrow too. 721 00:31:28,520 --> 00:31:29,720 Yeah, probably all day tomorrow too. 722 00:31:29,720 --> 00:31:33,440 So we're going to call it a wrap on the podcast here and start 723 00:31:33,440 --> 00:31:35,880 packaging, I reckon.
