1 00:00:00,040 --> 00:00:01,520 What you drinking on just black coffee? 2 00:00:01,720 --> 00:00:06,080 I got a little bit of some 0 Cal syrup and some. 3 00:00:06,200 --> 00:00:08,280 What brand syrup are you using? Out of whatever was in the break 4 00:00:08,280 --> 00:00:09,360 room. Is it clean? 5 00:00:09,520 --> 00:00:10,720 People send me stuff all the time. 6 00:00:10,800 --> 00:00:12,960 It's not clean. I probably don't use it, but 7 00:00:12,960 --> 00:00:14,720 you're using it. I'm using a little dash. 8 00:00:14,800 --> 00:00:16,600 Yeah, my standard's just higher than yours, bro. 9 00:00:17,360 --> 00:00:21,960 It'll it'll, it'll get filtered out as soon as we're under like 10 00:00:21,960 --> 00:00:24,120 10 weeks. I usually kind of cut all those. 11 00:00:24,160 --> 00:00:26,640 I try not to do much for artificial sweeteners as it is, 12 00:00:26,960 --> 00:00:31,800 but they help just satisfy a little bit something with some 13 00:00:31,800 --> 00:00:34,520 flavor. But there's also Redmond Relight 14 00:00:34,520 --> 00:00:37,080 chocolate in here as well. That's that stuff is the bone. 15 00:00:37,080 --> 00:00:41,440 Oh yeah, we had so this is take 2 on this podcast. 16 00:00:41,440 --> 00:00:45,440 We spent we, we tried recording yesterday and I hate that we 17 00:00:45,440 --> 00:00:47,880 missed that 'cause we had a lot of like good little banter, 18 00:00:48,240 --> 00:00:52,040 preliminary pre roll banter. We're talking about my blue 19 00:00:52,040 --> 00:00:55,880 light blocking glasses, which you said I should wear these and 20 00:00:55,880 --> 00:00:58,520 not these, right? Yeah, I think those ones, you 21 00:00:58,520 --> 00:01:00,720 have to be on a motorcycle to justify. 22 00:01:00,760 --> 00:01:03,280 They just look like. What about a a unicycle? 23 00:01:03,600 --> 00:01:07,920 Could I wear unicycle, bicycle, tricycle but not a motorcycle? 24 00:01:07,920 --> 00:01:10,120 Not a motorcycle, OK. Or vice versa. 25 00:01:10,120 --> 00:01:13,120 What else were we talking about? Yesterday I showed you a picture 26 00:01:13,120 --> 00:01:14,960 of the sandbox. I I finished it last night. 27 00:01:15,520 --> 00:01:17,280 Oh yeah, you were building Rygy a little. 28 00:01:17,320 --> 00:01:19,840 Yeah, I built them a freaking slick sandbox. 29 00:01:19,840 --> 00:01:23,080 Man, yeah, you were talking a little bit about steering away 30 00:01:23,120 --> 00:01:25,120 from treated lumber or doing a little bit more. 31 00:01:25,160 --> 00:01:25,880 Cedar. Right. 32 00:01:26,000 --> 00:01:29,680 Oh that is awesome. Yeah, I put a cedar liner on the 33 00:01:29,680 --> 00:01:31,960 inside because. So it doesn't leach into the 34 00:01:31,960 --> 00:01:34,040 sand. Yeah, because the treated lumber 35 00:01:34,040 --> 00:01:36,880 it's I don't know what they cured cure it with now they used 36 00:01:36,880 --> 00:01:37,960 to cure everything with Chris Oat. 37 00:01:38,040 --> 00:01:41,000 It probably still is Chris Oat, but like we're we've gotten rid 38 00:01:41,000 --> 00:01:43,840 of all of his polyester clothes. So to me it's OK. 39 00:01:43,840 --> 00:01:46,000 It doesn't. He obviously heats right So it's 40 00:01:46,000 --> 00:01:48,560 like probably doesn't make sense for him to be playing in sandbox 41 00:01:48,560 --> 00:01:51,160 Leached Chris Oat. That'll that's right in his 42 00:01:51,160 --> 00:01:53,640 skin, you know? So we did them. 43 00:01:53,920 --> 00:01:57,280 That looks good. Working on my fence. 44 00:01:57,280 --> 00:02:00,720 I lost my order ring. Oh no, yeah, OK. 45 00:02:00,720 --> 00:02:04,080 Is it Bluetooth though right? Yeah, it's Bluetooth, so can. 46 00:02:04,080 --> 00:02:06,360 You just wander around and like wait for it to connect or is it 47 00:02:06,360 --> 00:02:08,840 dead? I think I know where I lost it, 48 00:02:08,840 --> 00:02:12,960 but it's like buried in a bunch of leaves and like I'd scrape 49 00:02:13,080 --> 00:02:14,600 through leaves for like 30 minutes. 50 00:02:14,600 --> 00:02:15,680 I'm like, I can't find this thing. 51 00:02:16,040 --> 00:02:18,720 But I was thinking about that and I'm like the only thing I 52 00:02:18,720 --> 00:02:21,360 ever use my oar ring for anyways is sleep. 53 00:02:21,880 --> 00:02:24,800 Like seeing how much I sleep but it always just tells me I don't 54 00:02:24,800 --> 00:02:27,240 sleep enough and I don't need the ring to tell me that. 55 00:02:27,280 --> 00:02:29,520 Yeah, you already know. That my watch says the same 56 00:02:29,520 --> 00:02:31,280 thing. The difference between my watch 57 00:02:31,280 --> 00:02:34,680 and the oar ring is that typically the rim and deep like 58 00:02:34,680 --> 00:02:37,960 cycles are inverted, like they both are accurate in the total 59 00:02:37,960 --> 00:02:41,440 time asleep. But then my this ring would 60 00:02:41,440 --> 00:02:45,160 show, you know, a little bit of deep and a lot of rim and my 61 00:02:45,240 --> 00:02:46,880 watch just shows the inversion of that. 62 00:02:46,880 --> 00:02:49,960 So I don't know which of those is more accurate, but I'll 63 00:02:49,960 --> 00:02:52,280 probably eventually get another or ring but I just didn't feel 64 00:02:52,280 --> 00:02:54,520 like. Does your did your watch pick up 65 00:02:54,520 --> 00:02:56,440 on snoring? Like if you have snoring that 66 00:02:56,440 --> 00:02:57,840 happens during the night. I don't know. 67 00:02:57,840 --> 00:03:00,160 I've had this watch for three years, four years, and I don't 68 00:03:00,160 --> 00:03:01,520 know what most of the buttons do. 69 00:03:01,520 --> 00:03:04,080 OK. Well, my Samsung does like the 70 00:03:04,080 --> 00:03:06,480 Samsung Health, the whole myriad of things. 71 00:03:06,920 --> 00:03:10,040 And one of the things that it tracks during sleep is First 72 00:03:10,040 --> 00:03:11,480 off, it gives you a sleep score, of course. 73 00:03:11,480 --> 00:03:13,000 Then it gives you actual sleep time. 74 00:03:13,000 --> 00:03:17,080 It tracks your cycles, it tracks your different R.E.M., light, 75 00:03:17,080 --> 00:03:22,880 deep snoring, skin temp, heart rate, respiratory rate, blood 76 00:03:22,880 --> 00:03:26,240 oxygen, all that kind of stuff. But the snoring, If it picks up 77 00:03:26,240 --> 00:03:28,520 on snoring, you can actually pull it up on the phone and 78 00:03:28,520 --> 00:03:30,360 listen to little audio clips of your. 79 00:03:30,360 --> 00:03:31,560 Weird. Yeah. 80 00:03:31,800 --> 00:03:35,000 And at what time in the night you snore, which stage you're in 81 00:03:35,000 --> 00:03:37,640 when you're snoring, kind of just like helps you figure it 82 00:03:37,680 --> 00:03:39,280 out. Yeah, I've done like the mouth 83 00:03:39,280 --> 00:03:41,320 taping. I'm not doing it currently, but 84 00:03:41,320 --> 00:03:43,360 I've done that to help with snoring because I snore a little 85 00:03:43,360 --> 00:03:47,440 bit. Occasionally Rigel snores too, 86 00:03:47,920 --> 00:03:49,320 so I got to get him fixed up there. 87 00:03:49,920 --> 00:03:53,360 But yeah, I need to get my sleep dot and I think my my mattress 88 00:03:53,360 --> 00:03:55,760 is like 10 years old and they say you got to replace your 89 00:03:55,760 --> 00:03:58,200 mattress every 10 years. So I think when we do eventually 90 00:03:58,200 --> 00:04:00,920 get a new mattress, I might get that eight sleep mattress. 91 00:04:00,920 --> 00:04:03,040 Oh yeah, that does all of that stuff anyways. 92 00:04:03,040 --> 00:04:06,760 But the thing I really like about it is it thermoregulates 93 00:04:06,760 --> 00:04:08,560 as you sleep. So if your body temperature 94 00:04:08,560 --> 00:04:12,440 starts elevating, it cools automatically to keep you in a 95 00:04:12,440 --> 00:04:14,320 certain core window of temperature. 96 00:04:14,680 --> 00:04:17,680 Which I think would be super nice because I like it crazy 97 00:04:17,680 --> 00:04:18,160 cold. So do. 98 00:04:18,399 --> 00:04:23,080 I because I am a hot sleeper. I am 88 and when we have the 99 00:04:23,080 --> 00:04:26,760 baby, Crystal's obviously going to have the baby in the bed and 100 00:04:26,760 --> 00:04:29,120 she's not going to let me crank down the thermostat as much as I 101 00:04:29,120 --> 00:04:32,280 would, so if I've got a mattress that's keeping me cooler, I 102 00:04:32,280 --> 00:04:36,240 think it'd be worthwhile. They have one that's two zoned, 103 00:04:36,240 --> 00:04:38,320 right? Yeah, so this is 2 zoned, so 104 00:04:38,320 --> 00:04:39,880 like you can she. Can have it hot and you can. 105 00:04:40,320 --> 00:04:41,840 Crank this up. Exactly. 106 00:04:41,840 --> 00:04:43,480 Sweet. Because like right now I've 107 00:04:43,480 --> 00:04:47,280 been, it's kind of warming up. So I've been turning the AC on 108 00:04:47,280 --> 00:04:51,680 at night and just letting the temperature do its thing. 109 00:04:52,080 --> 00:04:57,240 And I'll set it at like 65, but then I'll like, I woke up the 110 00:04:57,240 --> 00:04:59,320 other day and it was 58. In a bedroom. 111 00:04:59,360 --> 00:05:01,240 Yeah, which was amazing. I love it. 112 00:05:01,240 --> 00:05:02,080 I. Just slept good. 113 00:05:02,200 --> 00:05:03,800 No, I slept super good. For like 2 minutes. 114 00:05:03,960 --> 00:05:05,000 No, I slept good the whole way through. 115 00:05:05,080 --> 00:05:06,760 Like, but you only get a lot. You don't get a lot of. 116 00:05:06,760 --> 00:05:08,040 Sleep. I don't get a lot of sleep but 117 00:05:08,040 --> 00:05:10,800 like I don't have a problem falling asleep and I feel like 118 00:05:10,800 --> 00:05:14,840 my sleep quality is good it's just not enough but it's got to 119 00:05:14,840 --> 00:05:16,440 be cold. Same for me, I've been opening 120 00:05:16,440 --> 00:05:19,160 my windows lately because it gets kind of cool and crisp in 121 00:05:19,160 --> 00:05:21,280 the night. Crank the windows open, ceiling 122 00:05:21,280 --> 00:05:22,800 fan on. Then I have a little fan on my 123 00:05:22,800 --> 00:05:25,960 night stand and just zips air across my face and it's the. 124 00:05:25,960 --> 00:05:28,640 Best little background noise going yeah, I turned the fan on 125 00:05:28,640 --> 00:05:33,240 for that same reason yesterday when we were doing take One, we 126 00:05:33,240 --> 00:05:35,920 talked about I kind of want to make this the conversation of 127 00:05:35,920 --> 00:05:39,520 just like time, time management and optimizing for time. 128 00:05:39,520 --> 00:05:42,120 And I wrote about this in my newsletter, too, But we started 129 00:05:42,120 --> 00:05:47,760 talking about how people in modern day society, like Pat, 130 00:05:47,760 --> 00:05:51,160 use a pacifier in a sense, you know, like they have this waste 131 00:05:51,160 --> 00:05:55,320 of time to pacify themselves from their reality. 132 00:05:55,520 --> 00:05:56,640 And we talked about. Oh yeah. 133 00:05:56,760 --> 00:06:00,200 We were talking. About video games and concerts. 134 00:06:00,320 --> 00:06:02,200 Live music, sports, all that. Kind of. 135 00:06:02,320 --> 00:06:04,560 Stuff and probably a good thing that that one got cancelled 136 00:06:04,560 --> 00:06:07,240 'cause I didn't want it to come across as me being demeaning 137 00:06:07,240 --> 00:06:08,920 towards people that go to concerts like yourself. 138 00:06:08,920 --> 00:06:12,200 Take 2. Take two 'cause I asked you do 139 00:06:12,200 --> 00:06:14,840 you like going to concerts 'cause I love going to live 140 00:06:14,840 --> 00:06:17,960 concerts and would live at outdoor festivals if I. 141 00:06:17,960 --> 00:06:21,960 Could and I've been to one concert, I lasted 20 minutes and 142 00:06:21,960 --> 00:06:23,480 it was just not my jam, so I left. 143 00:06:23,480 --> 00:06:24,760 But you go to concerts all the time. 144 00:06:24,760 --> 00:06:27,760 I love it, but I don't like watching people live their life. 145 00:06:27,760 --> 00:06:30,960 I like living my life and concerts like your scenario, 146 00:06:30,960 --> 00:06:33,160 you're going with buddies, you know, lifelong buddies, so 147 00:06:33,160 --> 00:06:34,760 you're making memories. So like I could totally get 148 00:06:34,760 --> 00:06:39,040 behind that. But like, sports teams, I don't 149 00:06:39,040 --> 00:06:41,880 watch sports teams, I don't watch football, I don't have a 150 00:06:41,880 --> 00:06:44,600 fantasy Football League. I don't do that because like, to 151 00:06:44,600 --> 00:06:48,640 me, the athletes are the one living and everybody just 152 00:06:48,640 --> 00:06:51,200 watching them live. And again, nothing against them. 153 00:06:51,200 --> 00:06:53,880 That's just not my jam. And then we took it one step 154 00:06:53,880 --> 00:06:54,920 further. We're talking about people that 155 00:06:54,920 --> 00:06:57,520 play video games. And then like the next level 156 00:06:57,520 --> 00:07:01,760 deep on that is people that watch videos of people playing 157 00:07:01,760 --> 00:07:03,400 video games. Or live streams, yeah. 158 00:07:05,920 --> 00:07:07,600 We've had some technical difficulties. 159 00:07:07,760 --> 00:07:10,680 We've had to restart this podcast I think three times, 160 00:07:10,680 --> 00:07:13,000 couple times, couple times. So you may have some repetitive 161 00:07:13,000 --> 00:07:16,680 stuff in there. But to finish the last clip that 162 00:07:16,680 --> 00:07:20,760 I do think was recorded is that I feel like people waste an 163 00:07:20,760 --> 00:07:24,480 obscene amount of time doing things that are unproductive and 164 00:07:24,480 --> 00:07:30,120 not growing their character. And then there's benefit to 165 00:07:30,120 --> 00:07:32,840 disconnecting, like you go to the concerts to disconnect. 166 00:07:33,240 --> 00:07:35,280 I go. There to have a great time, make 167 00:07:35,280 --> 00:07:38,480 some memories, take some photos, you know, see the people that I 168 00:07:38,480 --> 00:07:41,800 really enjoy listening to live. And you've got something to show 169 00:07:41,800 --> 00:07:45,040 for that, like you've got more memories with friends, you've 170 00:07:45,040 --> 00:07:48,960 got experiences me disconnecting by working on the sandbox of 171 00:07:48,960 --> 00:07:50,480 rides. You're like, that's something 172 00:07:50,480 --> 00:07:52,640 that I'm physically creating and creating memories with him in 173 00:07:52,640 --> 00:07:56,360 the process. I suppose someone could probably 174 00:07:56,360 --> 00:08:00,760 justify why they watch hours of somebody else live streaming 175 00:08:00,760 --> 00:08:03,040 video games, but I would have a hard time figuring out how 176 00:08:03,040 --> 00:08:05,600 that's benefiting their growth as a person. 177 00:08:06,160 --> 00:08:10,400 And not that everything has to create growth, but why not? 178 00:08:10,400 --> 00:08:12,440 Like, I mean, if you only got 1 left to live, it makes sense to 179 00:08:12,440 --> 00:08:15,120 kind of like, stack the chips in your favor and try to spend your 180 00:08:15,120 --> 00:08:17,240 time doing things that are benefiting you. 181 00:08:17,360 --> 00:08:19,200 Yeah. So yeah. 182 00:08:19,560 --> 00:08:22,920 So then that kind of led to our conversation on optimizing the 183 00:08:22,920 --> 00:08:26,800 time that we have because there's not a whole lot of idle 184 00:08:26,800 --> 00:08:31,600 time in my day, but I spend an hour and 10 minutes every single 185 00:08:31,600 --> 00:08:36,320 day driving to the gym to meet up with you to train in favor 186 00:08:36,320 --> 00:08:39,080 because it's closer to where you live and you're able to. 187 00:08:39,480 --> 00:08:41,760 We'll finish up, we'll get there at 5, train for an hour, hour 188 00:08:41,760 --> 00:08:44,320 and 15 minutes. You leave, go take a shower, let 189 00:08:44,320 --> 00:08:45,920 the dogs out, go to the compound. 190 00:08:45,920 --> 00:08:49,080 I go home, take a shower, meet you at the compound for 8:00 191 00:08:49,080 --> 00:08:51,120 meeting. But I think what we're going to 192 00:08:51,120 --> 00:08:54,240 do is we're going to revamp our gym, get it just the way we want 193 00:08:54,240 --> 00:08:58,240 it, build a shower in the gym so that you can start training 194 00:08:58,240 --> 00:09:01,720 there. We'll keep it at 5:00 and then 195 00:09:01,720 --> 00:09:04,960 we'll have, we'll be done shower and everything by 6:30. 196 00:09:04,960 --> 00:09:06,840 And then we'll have like an hour and a half of productive work 197 00:09:06,840 --> 00:09:09,360 time before the crew ever even gets there at 8:00. 198 00:09:09,400 --> 00:09:11,680 Yeah, that'd be nice. We'll have a whole new window of 199 00:09:11,800 --> 00:09:15,680 just undisturbed quiet time. Yeah, because like, the moment 200 00:09:15,680 --> 00:09:18,200 people start emailing me and I start getting messages and I get 201 00:09:18,200 --> 00:09:20,360 questions from the crew and people are slacking me and 202 00:09:20,360 --> 00:09:24,080 clients are messaging me, like I don't have as many creative 203 00:09:24,080 --> 00:09:27,520 hours after that point. So protecting those early 204 00:09:27,520 --> 00:09:31,640 morning hours is key. And we'll make the gym such that 205 00:09:31,640 --> 00:09:33,400 you've got everything you need for your prep. 206 00:09:34,280 --> 00:09:37,560 Nothing's left to chance. And you, like, prefer to train 207 00:09:37,560 --> 00:09:39,040 there. And I was thinking too, like, I 208 00:09:39,040 --> 00:09:42,400 don't know if you're open to this, but like, what if we 209 00:09:42,400 --> 00:09:44,720 listen to audiobooks while we work down? 210 00:09:45,120 --> 00:09:47,640 Oh, I don't know. We'll have to see how that goes. 211 00:09:47,640 --> 00:09:49,280 I might be wearing headphones if that's the case. 212 00:09:49,280 --> 00:09:53,000 Something that I need. Some of that needs some. 50 213 00:09:53,000 --> 00:09:54,560 Shades of grey, you know, we can listen to that. 214 00:09:54,560 --> 00:09:56,160 I don't know. Yeah. 215 00:09:56,560 --> 00:09:57,920 Read by Betty White. Yeah. 216 00:09:58,880 --> 00:10:00,320 No, I see the narrator. I don't. 217 00:10:00,320 --> 00:10:03,640 Know I'm just making that up, but what we, we could try we 218 00:10:03,720 --> 00:10:06,720 we'll have to see because that might be a negative that might 219 00:10:06,720 --> 00:10:10,080 not be too motivational. When I'm super deep in a prep, 220 00:10:10,640 --> 00:10:13,920 it's weird man. Like I prefer that over music. 221 00:10:13,920 --> 00:10:16,360 When I'm in a building phase and I get extra calories running 222 00:10:16,360 --> 00:10:18,600 through my veins, like I crank up the music. 223 00:10:18,600 --> 00:10:20,880 I got the beat rocking and I'm just like in the zone. 224 00:10:21,360 --> 00:10:25,600 But like when I'm super depleted, I actually prefer like 225 00:10:25,600 --> 00:10:28,360 just listening and being like meditated with my training. 226 00:10:28,360 --> 00:10:30,040 It's kind of weird. That is kind of weird, super 227 00:10:30,040 --> 00:10:34,400 weird 'cause you're weird. But see, I, I, I think there's a 228 00:10:34,400 --> 00:10:37,760 little bit more stimulus there. So you're actually taking in 229 00:10:38,080 --> 00:10:42,520 something of content, audibly processing it through your 230 00:10:42,520 --> 00:10:44,160 brain. Whereas me, I just like to crank 231 00:10:44,160 --> 00:10:46,720 the music, not think about what I'm listening to. 232 00:10:46,720 --> 00:10:50,200 It just has some loud beat to it, and then I can just move 233 00:10:50,200 --> 00:10:51,560 some weights around. Yeah. 234 00:10:51,560 --> 00:10:54,520 So I mean, we'll see. We could definitely give it a 235 00:10:54,520 --> 00:10:56,280 try. Yeah, we don't have to do 50 236 00:10:56,280 --> 00:10:58,280 Shades of Grey. It could be some other self help 237 00:10:58,280 --> 00:11:01,000 voting. I'm joking by the way. 238 00:11:02,680 --> 00:11:05,920 So yeah, about scheduling, again, it's kind of hard. 239 00:11:05,920 --> 00:11:08,040 I apologize to listeners because we've like said these same 240 00:11:08,040 --> 00:11:11,560 things in different orders multiple times, but with our 241 00:11:11,560 --> 00:11:14,920 schedule, with my schedule specifically, I'm thinking about 242 00:11:14,920 --> 00:11:19,000 you use Google Calendar. Yeah, well, I have a an Android 243 00:11:19,000 --> 00:11:20,880 phone, so it's all. It's all, yeah. 244 00:11:21,240 --> 00:11:22,760 So I use Google Calendar for everything. 245 00:11:22,760 --> 00:11:24,720 If it's not in my calendar, it does not exist. 246 00:11:24,720 --> 00:11:28,320 And I've got like a calendly scheduling link that I'll send. 247 00:11:28,320 --> 00:11:31,080 People are trying to book guests on my podcast and stuff like 248 00:11:31,080 --> 00:11:32,560 that. And the way I've got structure 249 00:11:32,560 --> 00:11:36,240 currently is people can book a podcast recording with me 250 00:11:36,560 --> 00:11:41,200 Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday. I think Thursday and Friday are 251 00:11:41,200 --> 00:11:44,640 up in the air. And then I like schedule a bunch 252 00:11:44,640 --> 00:11:48,720 of meetings for like software companies, our ads team or 253 00:11:48,720 --> 00:11:51,600 e-mail team, like all these different agencies and teams and 254 00:11:51,600 --> 00:11:53,440 stuff that we have going with the businesses. 255 00:11:54,000 --> 00:11:56,120 All of those meetings are scattered throughout the week. 256 00:11:56,960 --> 00:11:59,960 What I'm probably going to do is I'm trying to optimize my whole 257 00:11:59,960 --> 00:12:03,360 schedule and just capitalize on all the time that I do have is 258 00:12:03,360 --> 00:12:06,000 make Monday blocked out completely. 259 00:12:06,000 --> 00:12:07,880 So nobody can schedule calls with me on Monday. 260 00:12:08,640 --> 00:12:11,360 That'll be for me to do like administrative work, creative 261 00:12:11,360 --> 00:12:14,560 thinking, just start the week like it's, it's, it's kind of 262 00:12:14,560 --> 00:12:17,040 demoralizing when you start the week and you've already got like 263 00:12:17,040 --> 00:12:21,200 a whole bunch of meetings on Monday and you can't be as 264 00:12:21,200 --> 00:12:24,920 proactive with the week. So I'm going to make Monday like 265 00:12:24,920 --> 00:12:28,480 a stand alone blocked, you know, proactive creative day. 266 00:12:29,080 --> 00:12:31,600 And then Tuesday I'm going to have that for all of the 267 00:12:31,600 --> 00:12:34,680 meetings, like all of the software meetings, all of the 268 00:12:34,680 --> 00:12:36,960 meetings, like all these little 30 minute meetings that just 269 00:12:36,960 --> 00:12:39,200 stack up on top of each other. Plus we do our live call on 270 00:12:39,280 --> 00:12:42,360 Tuesday at six, Wednesday and Thursday I'll make that for 271 00:12:42,360 --> 00:12:45,280 podcasts where that's all I do on Wednesday and Thursday is 272 00:12:45,280 --> 00:12:48,160 just record podcasts. So that can be totally engaged 273 00:12:48,160 --> 00:12:51,520 with the guests and they just have that structured. 274 00:12:51,840 --> 00:12:56,640 Friday I'll make as another creative buffer admin day where 275 00:12:57,160 --> 00:13:01,600 I can catch up on anything loose ends from the week and then plan 276 00:13:01,600 --> 00:13:03,160 and be proactive with the coming week. 277 00:13:03,520 --> 00:13:07,960 Plus, I travel a lot on Fridays and Mondays and I'm often times 278 00:13:07,960 --> 00:13:10,800 not in the office anyways. And if we do launches on Sunday, 279 00:13:10,800 --> 00:13:14,000 which we always do, Monday's a heavy packaging day, so I could 280 00:13:14,000 --> 00:13:17,480 be there for that as well. So I think I'm going to revamp 281 00:13:17,480 --> 00:13:20,720 my whole booking schedule so that people can only book 282 00:13:20,800 --> 00:13:24,200 meetings on Tuesday and podcasts on Wednesdays, Wednesdays and 283 00:13:24,200 --> 00:13:25,600 Thursdays. That's a good approach because 284 00:13:25,600 --> 00:13:27,760 I've seen your days kind of whirlwind, out of control 285 00:13:27,760 --> 00:13:30,480 sometimes, especially like Mondays when we start the week 286 00:13:30,480 --> 00:13:34,480 with production and maybe something isn't going smooth. 287 00:13:34,480 --> 00:13:37,000 We need to revamp something. We need to spend a little bit of 288 00:13:37,000 --> 00:13:40,840 time in the kitchen. That totally jacks up my Oh 289 00:13:40,880 --> 00:13:43,440 yeah, Like when there's anything going on with the kitchen and I 290 00:13:43,440 --> 00:13:46,720 need to proactively just plan on there being mistakes in the 291 00:13:46,720 --> 00:13:49,720 kitchen where I just have that worked into my schedule. 292 00:13:49,720 --> 00:13:53,120 But like if I'm super booked, which I typically AM and I've 293 00:13:53,120 --> 00:13:57,840 got like 2 podcasts and 3456 meetings on Monday and then like 294 00:13:57,840 --> 00:14:01,640 the freaking depositing elf goes out or the flow wrappers not 295 00:14:01,640 --> 00:14:03,280 packaging. Well, we've had issues with like 296 00:14:03,480 --> 00:14:07,960 refrigeration units, we've had issues with outlets, electrical 297 00:14:07,960 --> 00:14:11,040 outlets in the kitchen. We've had things that have just 298 00:14:11,640 --> 00:14:13,560 plugged up. We've just, there's just random 299 00:14:13,560 --> 00:14:16,840 stuff that just pops in. So I think that'll be good. 300 00:14:16,840 --> 00:14:20,080 I think that'll be super good. And if you and I are, you know, 301 00:14:20,080 --> 00:14:23,200 in the chair working at 630 before they ever get here until 302 00:14:23,200 --> 00:14:27,480 8:00, then I feel like I'll be able to 10X my productive hours, 303 00:14:27,480 --> 00:14:30,560 my creative hours and just like be proactive instead of 304 00:14:30,560 --> 00:14:32,360 reactive, man, because. Then we'll get some stuff done 305 00:14:32,360 --> 00:14:34,680 before the guys even get here and start production for the 306 00:14:34,680 --> 00:14:37,120 day. That way, if something hits a 307 00:14:37,120 --> 00:14:39,840 hurdle during production, you've already got a bunch of stuff 308 00:14:39,840 --> 00:14:40,960 knocked out. Exactly. 309 00:14:41,160 --> 00:14:43,920 Yeah, that'd be good. What else? 310 00:14:44,600 --> 00:14:46,480 What have we talked about that didn't get recorded? 311 00:14:46,480 --> 00:14:48,920 We were talking a little bit about just communication in 312 00:14:48,920 --> 00:14:52,440 general, you know, like when you're involved with all these 313 00:14:52,440 --> 00:14:54,440 different people, emailing back and forth, texting back and 314 00:14:54,440 --> 00:14:57,160 forth, messaging back and forth, ads, teams, ingredients, 315 00:14:57,160 --> 00:14:58,440 suppliers, all that kind of stuff. 316 00:14:58,920 --> 00:15:01,320 And communication is key. And when you're shooting them an 317 00:15:01,320 --> 00:15:04,520 e-mail and you don't hear back and you don't hear back and you 318 00:15:04,520 --> 00:15:07,960 don't hear back, it's, it's frustrating. 319 00:15:08,720 --> 00:15:12,480 Yeah, I hate text messaging. So I try and keep everything in 320 00:15:12,480 --> 00:15:16,960 Slack for our internal teams and then externally e-mail and I'll 321 00:15:16,960 --> 00:15:19,000 typically respond to emails within 24 hours. 322 00:15:19,000 --> 00:15:22,400 Like I batch respond to all my emails or I try to unless it's 323 00:15:22,400 --> 00:15:25,040 like super time sensitive. But I hate it when people e-mail 324 00:15:25,040 --> 00:15:26,880 me and they expect an immediate response. 325 00:15:27,200 --> 00:15:29,160 If I'm waiting on them and it's time sensitive, then I'll 326 00:15:29,160 --> 00:15:32,240 respond back immediately. But there's lots of instances 327 00:15:32,240 --> 00:15:36,280 where like I'll go e-mail somebody needing a response 328 00:15:36,280 --> 00:15:39,960 within 24 hours and then not hear back for 10 days. 329 00:15:39,960 --> 00:15:42,640 Especially when you when there's so many timelines that have to 330 00:15:42,640 --> 00:15:44,840 stack up. Yeah, especially when I'm paying 331 00:15:44,840 --> 00:15:46,040 them a lot of money. Exactly. 332 00:15:46,040 --> 00:15:49,200 If I'm paying them a lot of money, then I expect a certain 333 00:15:49,200 --> 00:15:52,520 degree of mutual respect amongst one another where like, OK, I'm 334 00:15:52,720 --> 00:15:56,960 paying for a service or a product and you communicate with 335 00:15:56,960 --> 00:16:00,120 me that you've received that purchase order, that you have 336 00:16:00,120 --> 00:16:03,640 received payments, that you know the details of my ingredient 337 00:16:03,720 --> 00:16:07,920 purchase or whatever. Not getting a response within 10 338 00:16:07,920 --> 00:16:09,840 days of those kind of emails is very frustrating. 339 00:16:09,840 --> 00:16:11,440 Even just acknowledgement goes a long ways. 340 00:16:11,440 --> 00:16:13,600 Let's say when you sit down at a restaurant and you're going out 341 00:16:13,600 --> 00:16:16,080 to eat and you sit down and obviously the restaurant is 342 00:16:16,080 --> 00:16:18,440 super busy and all the servers are running around, bartenders 343 00:16:18,440 --> 00:16:20,240 are running around, everyone's just going crazy. 344 00:16:20,600 --> 00:16:23,480 If that server comes to your table within two minutes of you 345 00:16:23,480 --> 00:16:26,760 sitting down, just says, hey, my name is so and so, I'll be right 346 00:16:26,760 --> 00:16:27,920 with you guys. I'm super busy. 347 00:16:27,920 --> 00:16:29,160 Go ahead and take a look at the menu. 348 00:16:29,160 --> 00:16:31,800 I'll be right back. That buys you like so much more 349 00:16:31,800 --> 00:16:35,280 time than them just not doing that and not touching the table. 350 00:16:35,520 --> 00:16:37,240 It's crazy. Were you ever a server? 351 00:16:37,280 --> 00:16:38,080 I was, yeah. What kind? 352 00:16:38,120 --> 00:16:40,720 Of restaurant you serve at. Actually, one of my very first 353 00:16:40,720 --> 00:16:43,960 jobs when I was 15, I had a driver's permit, didn't even 354 00:16:43,960 --> 00:16:46,920 have a driver's license yet, was a dishwasher at our bar and 355 00:16:46,920 --> 00:16:49,000 restaurant. And then I graduated into a 356 00:16:49,000 --> 00:16:54,600 pizza cook, line cook, server, bartender, manager. 357 00:16:55,080 --> 00:16:57,000 So I like worked my way up the whole entire chain. 358 00:16:57,000 --> 00:16:59,600 That was one of the biggest things is like, even if the 359 00:16:59,600 --> 00:17:02,800 restaurant is jam packed to the gills, like nowhere to even sit, 360 00:17:03,200 --> 00:17:05,560 if your server comes over and just says, hey, guys, my name is 361 00:17:05,800 --> 00:17:07,359 Greg, I'll be right with you guys. 362 00:17:07,359 --> 00:17:08,839 I'll be, you know, just a couple minutes. 363 00:17:08,839 --> 00:17:11,040 Gotta pump, pump an order into the computer screen. 364 00:17:11,079 --> 00:17:14,480 I'll be right back then those people already made connection 365 00:17:14,480 --> 00:17:15,880 with you. They're already excited. 366 00:17:15,880 --> 00:17:17,720 They're already ready for you to come back. 367 00:17:17,720 --> 00:17:19,280 They can start looking at the menu, that kind of thing. 368 00:17:19,280 --> 00:17:23,720 But if they don't see somebody for 10 minutes, they're already 369 00:17:23,720 --> 00:17:25,640 pissed off. They're definitely not going to 370 00:17:25,640 --> 00:17:28,480 leave you a very good tip. They may even just walk out and 371 00:17:28,480 --> 00:17:30,280 they may leave a bad review. They may never come back. 372 00:17:30,600 --> 00:17:31,480 Yeah. So it's key. 373 00:17:31,640 --> 00:17:33,880 Yeah, communication is key. I mean, you and I both have 374 00:17:33,880 --> 00:17:39,480 clients and it's kind of crazy because I'll, I'll do my, I'll 375 00:17:39,480 --> 00:17:41,600 batch respond to my clients too. But I tell them on the initial 376 00:17:41,600 --> 00:17:44,120 client column, look, I batch respond to all my client 377 00:17:44,120 --> 00:17:47,520 messaging, message me at any point throughout the day and 378 00:17:47,520 --> 00:17:50,480 I'll respond back as soon as I go through my client list for 379 00:17:50,480 --> 00:17:53,160 the day. I typically do that first thing 380 00:17:53,160 --> 00:17:56,200 in the morning on weekdays and then I try and take some time 381 00:17:56,200 --> 00:17:58,240 off from that on the weekends. So I just give them that right 382 00:17:58,240 --> 00:17:59,880 up front so they kind of know what the expectation is. 383 00:18:00,320 --> 00:18:04,400 But then like, I don't update their macros until I see that 384 00:18:04,400 --> 00:18:07,800 they've uploaded their weights, that they've, you know, given me 385 00:18:07,800 --> 00:18:09,200 feedback. Because like, if I'm totally 386 00:18:09,200 --> 00:18:11,720 flying blind and I don't know how everybody's responding, how 387 00:18:11,720 --> 00:18:14,080 am I supposed to get them good accurate macro adjustments? 388 00:18:14,080 --> 00:18:16,120 Like I have no idea what to go off of if they don't give me 389 00:18:16,120 --> 00:18:19,280 feedback. So like I've got some clients 390 00:18:19,280 --> 00:18:23,360 that message me repetitively throughout the day, every day, 391 00:18:23,680 --> 00:18:26,480 and I would much rather have that and have that data to be 392 00:18:26,480 --> 00:18:28,480 able to build off of and know how they're feeling, know how 393 00:18:28,480 --> 00:18:32,320 they're doing. Then have clients who are not 394 00:18:32,320 --> 00:18:37,040 where they want to be hired me, but then would go like a week 395 00:18:37,040 --> 00:18:40,320 without responding and I'll like proactively message them like if 396 00:18:40,320 --> 00:18:43,640 it's if I'm like in the dark for a few days, I'll shoot them a 397 00:18:43,640 --> 00:18:46,000 message about, hey, just checking in, hadn't heard from 398 00:18:46,000 --> 00:18:47,120 you in a while. How you feeling? 399 00:18:47,120 --> 00:18:49,520 What's your satiety like these macros, What's your energy level 400 00:18:49,520 --> 00:18:50,400 like? How's your recovery? 401 00:18:50,400 --> 00:18:52,800 How's your training like? I'll proactively message them 402 00:18:53,400 --> 00:18:54,600 and. And you never hear back. 403 00:18:54,680 --> 00:18:56,640 Often times I never hear back and I'm just like, like that 404 00:18:56,640 --> 00:18:59,240 blows my mind. It's like, look, you are paying 405 00:18:59,240 --> 00:19:02,640 me for my expertise to get you where you want to be. 406 00:19:05,520 --> 00:19:07,040 Yeah, you know. Absolutely, I have the same 407 00:19:07,040 --> 00:19:08,480 exact thing. It it's crazy. 408 00:19:08,760 --> 00:19:09,920 It's crazy. There's going to be such a 409 00:19:09,920 --> 00:19:13,840 variety in how people communicate and interact with 410 00:19:13,840 --> 00:19:15,520 you. Like you'll have people that are 411 00:19:15,640 --> 00:19:17,960 to AT they get right back to you. 412 00:19:18,120 --> 00:19:21,040 They give you all the data. They do their weigh insurance, 413 00:19:21,040 --> 00:19:23,360 their check insurance, their photos, their feedback, the 414 00:19:23,360 --> 00:19:25,520 everything. Like I've clients I don't even, 415 00:19:25,520 --> 00:19:28,240 I don't even have to check on them and I know they're nailing 416 00:19:28,240 --> 00:19:32,280 their macros to AT within like 1 gram a couple of those clients. 417 00:19:32,680 --> 00:19:35,680 Then I've got people on the other end of the spectrum that I 418 00:19:35,680 --> 00:19:38,880 don't even know if they're on track with anything anymore 419 00:19:38,880 --> 00:19:41,440 because I haven't heard from them in two weeks and their 420 00:19:41,440 --> 00:19:43,880 macros and their dietary logging is all over the board. 421 00:19:43,880 --> 00:19:46,480 Nothing's consistent, nothing looks like it's even completed. 422 00:19:46,520 --> 00:19:47,600 And they don't look any different. 423 00:19:47,760 --> 00:19:51,120 And they're the same ones that are upset with lack of progress. 424 00:19:51,640 --> 00:19:53,760 Usually. I'm not putting everybody in a 425 00:19:53,760 --> 00:19:55,520 box, but that's typically how that works. 426 00:19:55,520 --> 00:19:58,680 So I mean, what's that saying? We cannot manage what we do not 427 00:19:58,680 --> 00:20:00,760 measure. Yeah, what can be measured can 428 00:20:00,760 --> 00:20:02,080 be managed. There's some variation there, 429 00:20:02,080 --> 00:20:04,560 Yeah, so. Yeah, communication is key in 430 00:20:04,640 --> 00:20:07,720 all aspects of life. We still recording Chip. 431 00:20:08,280 --> 00:20:12,880 All right, yeah, I've got some friends right now who are going 432 00:20:12,880 --> 00:20:16,520 through personal issues, like they're a couple and they're 433 00:20:16,520 --> 00:20:17,560 like. Relationship. 434 00:20:17,600 --> 00:20:21,960 Yeah, relationship issues and like they'll go 2 weeks without 435 00:20:21,960 --> 00:20:24,280 talking to one another like. That's crazy. 436 00:20:24,760 --> 00:20:26,600 It's obvious that's the the issue. 437 00:20:26,600 --> 00:20:28,880 The underlying issue is the lack of communication and. 438 00:20:29,560 --> 00:20:30,880 Then it just festers into something. 439 00:20:30,880 --> 00:20:32,440 Yeah, Oh yeah, man it. Gets blown way out of 440 00:20:32,440 --> 00:20:35,400 proportion, then everyone starts overthinking things and then you 441 00:20:35,400 --> 00:20:37,960 just you just wander away from each other. 442 00:20:37,960 --> 00:20:39,880 It's crazy. Yeah, I mean, like Crystal and I 443 00:20:40,440 --> 00:20:42,440 like we'll have our moments too, like any couple does. 444 00:20:42,440 --> 00:20:47,920 But like we've pretty much got a rule that we don't go to bed 445 00:20:47,920 --> 00:20:50,320 pissed off at each other and just like silent. 446 00:20:50,880 --> 00:20:56,040 And that's, that's kind of like how I, I don't really talk about 447 00:20:56,040 --> 00:20:57,520 things. I don't really verbalize things 448 00:20:57,520 --> 00:20:59,480 like if I'm super mad or frustrated, I just like go 449 00:20:59,480 --> 00:21:01,600 internal and get it figured out. Like I just figure it out. 450 00:21:02,000 --> 00:21:05,960 But if it's like with your spouse, then you can't just shut 451 00:21:05,960 --> 00:21:08,200 down on them because then they're going to start wondering 452 00:21:08,200 --> 00:21:09,400 like, oh, did I do something wrong? 453 00:21:09,400 --> 00:21:11,280 Is there an issue here? What do I need to do different? 454 00:21:11,680 --> 00:21:17,840 So like if I've got an issue with her specifically, then I go 455 00:21:17,840 --> 00:21:21,200 internal for a bit, figure out the best, most tactful way to 456 00:21:22,000 --> 00:21:25,000 speak my mind. But I speak my mind. 457 00:21:25,000 --> 00:21:27,280 Like I let her know what's up, what's frustrating, and then we 458 00:21:27,280 --> 00:21:28,960 have that conversation and all is well. 459 00:21:28,960 --> 00:21:33,480 But like whether it's a freaking client or a coach, your spouse 460 00:21:33,840 --> 00:21:37,320 or one of your suppliers or vendors or somebody you're 461 00:21:37,320 --> 00:21:39,480 communicating with, like you have to freaking communicate. 462 00:21:39,480 --> 00:21:42,720 Like this is so common sense. Everybody knows this, but you 463 00:21:42,720 --> 00:21:44,840 don't do it. It's like blows my mind. 464 00:21:44,840 --> 00:21:46,520 The more direct the better. Yeah. 465 00:21:47,040 --> 00:21:49,560 Just get it out there. The more direct and I feel like 466 00:21:49,560 --> 00:21:53,440 some people are really good at that, being direct or not. 467 00:21:53,440 --> 00:21:56,240 Like I don't mind having hard conversations and I don't think 468 00:21:56,400 --> 00:21:58,000 I was born. I think that's something you 469 00:21:58,000 --> 00:22:01,160 learn. But that's how my my dad was not 470 00:22:01,160 --> 00:22:03,160 very good at communicating with me. 471 00:22:04,640 --> 00:22:07,480 But whenever he had something, he was very direct when he did 472 00:22:07,480 --> 00:22:10,280 have something to say. So I just went very direct with 473 00:22:10,280 --> 00:22:15,120 things and you know exactly where I stand on the matter. 474 00:22:15,200 --> 00:22:18,320 Like I feel like that in my mind is way better than beating 475 00:22:18,320 --> 00:22:21,360 around the Bush and trying to like not give somebody the cold 476 00:22:21,360 --> 00:22:23,960 hard facts. Because like if you know exactly 477 00:22:23,960 --> 00:22:27,640 where you stand, then it's all in the open. 478 00:22:27,640 --> 00:22:31,080 It's I mean, the air is cleared, you know what the expectation is 479 00:22:31,080 --> 00:22:34,320 and it's just boom, cut and dry. Less room for. 480 00:22:34,320 --> 00:22:36,720 Misinterpretation. Misinterpretation, assumption, 481 00:22:36,720 --> 00:22:40,200 and and if you don't know, then you start assuming things and 482 00:22:40,200 --> 00:22:43,000 then that festers and then you blow it out of proportion and 483 00:22:43,000 --> 00:22:44,640 then everybody you know goes downhill. 484 00:22:44,800 --> 00:22:47,080 They say when you assume you make an ass of you and me, 485 00:22:47,400 --> 00:22:48,400 right? Have you heard that? 486 00:22:48,480 --> 00:22:50,360 That's good. I like that and I like that say 487 00:22:50,440 --> 00:22:54,320 that so like with you and I like I'm very direct with us. 488 00:22:54,320 --> 00:22:57,000 You know like hey man my triceps are bigger than yours. 489 00:22:57,000 --> 00:22:59,000 Hey man, your Mac I. Knew you were gonna say triceps. 490 00:22:59,880 --> 00:23:02,080 What about calves? You got me beat on calves for 491 00:23:02,080 --> 00:23:02,920 sure. For sure. 492 00:23:02,920 --> 00:23:04,640 Songs were direct. But I tell you what, when I get 493 00:23:04,640 --> 00:23:06,680 that hip thrust, when I hit thrust, when I get that belt 494 00:23:06,680 --> 00:23:09,800 squat, did you ever do belt squad calf raises? 495 00:23:10,280 --> 00:23:12,200 Yeah, we did them at Ozark not too long ago. 496 00:23:12,440 --> 00:23:13,560 Yeah, but I have done them in the. 497 00:23:13,560 --> 00:23:15,000 That's like the bottom man you get. 498 00:23:15,000 --> 00:23:17,400 You can kind of like a donkey calf raise with it, but you get 499 00:23:17,400 --> 00:23:19,280 way better stretch with that than anything. 500 00:23:19,280 --> 00:23:20,320 Absolutely. Standing. 501 00:23:20,720 --> 00:23:23,920 Yeah, so once I get that, I'm gonna beat you on the calves. 502 00:23:23,920 --> 00:23:25,240 It's gonna happen. It's gonna happen. 503 00:23:25,840 --> 00:23:27,120 Calves are slow to grow though man. 504 00:23:27,600 --> 00:23:31,040 My dad gave me large calves. Yeah, it's something that is 505 00:23:31,360 --> 00:23:34,160 very commonly inherited. And you were pretty heavy at one 506 00:23:34,160 --> 00:23:36,600 point too. And they say that if you're 507 00:23:36,600 --> 00:23:39,400 carrying around a lot of like if you're overweight, then you'd 508 00:23:39,400 --> 00:23:41,440 like to have bigger calves because obviously your calves 509 00:23:41,440 --> 00:23:44,080 are pushing that weight. But I was never like huge, huge. 510 00:23:44,080 --> 00:23:47,120 I mean, I think the heaviest I ever weighed was, you know, two 511 00:23:47,120 --> 00:23:48,880 30s. That's what I was, yeah. 512 00:23:48,920 --> 00:23:50,760 I didn't get big calves. But I didn't have, I didn't have 513 00:23:50,760 --> 00:23:54,280 nearly the muscle mass. So that 2:30-ish or whatever it 514 00:23:54,280 --> 00:23:57,520 was a lot more adipose tissue and not as heavy, nearly the 515 00:23:57,520 --> 00:23:58,720 lean, yeah. Yeah. 516 00:23:59,760 --> 00:24:00,800 Interesting. It's just bigger. 517 00:24:01,320 --> 00:24:05,800 Yeah, I was not blessed with the big calves or big chest. 518 00:24:05,800 --> 00:24:10,880 I got to get my chest out in but that's why I got that standing 519 00:24:11,080 --> 00:24:12,680 chest press machine. That's going to be nice. 520 00:24:12,760 --> 00:24:13,960 I'm excited to see how that bad. Works. 521 00:24:13,960 --> 00:24:14,840 That's going to be a game changer. 522 00:24:16,440 --> 00:24:17,640 Are you going to do a deload next week? 523 00:24:18,000 --> 00:24:21,600 I'm thinking, so I've been kind of dealing with tight like 524 00:24:21,680 --> 00:24:24,160 rhomboid in the middle of my back. 525 00:24:24,280 --> 00:24:26,000 Yeah. And I can't get it to really 526 00:24:26,000 --> 00:24:28,240 release. I had a massage, she dug way in 527 00:24:28,240 --> 00:24:31,080 and it felt awesome for a good 24 to 48 hours. 528 00:24:31,080 --> 00:24:33,200 And then it's just kind of re tightened and I've done some 529 00:24:33,200 --> 00:24:35,760 stretching, I've done some foam rolling, I've done, you know, 530 00:24:35,760 --> 00:24:39,720 hot cold salon pods, topical, all kinds of stuff. 531 00:24:40,200 --> 00:24:43,000 And I wake up in the morning and it's tight as shit and I can't 532 00:24:43,000 --> 00:24:45,000 get it to really release. So it's really restricting my 533 00:24:45,000 --> 00:24:47,680 range of motion and some of the stuff I can do with my shoulder 534 00:24:47,680 --> 00:24:50,520 on that side. So Fast forward to what you just 535 00:24:50,520 --> 00:24:53,040 asked. Yeah, I think I'm thinking I 536 00:24:53,040 --> 00:24:57,000 will maybe do a little bit of a lighter intensity deload. 537 00:24:57,720 --> 00:25:00,760 I do have another massage coming up first week of April, which 538 00:25:00,840 --> 00:25:04,480 I'm super excited for because she's a wizard when it comes to 539 00:25:04,480 --> 00:25:07,120 that. So I'm leaving for Washington's 540 00:25:07,120 --> 00:25:10,400 hunting retreat next Saturday. Yep, and. 541 00:25:10,520 --> 00:25:13,840 You're going to be gone for like a wee almost two weeks, right? 542 00:25:14,280 --> 00:25:17,040 Yeah, almost two weeks and I'm going to train while I'm on the 543 00:25:17,040 --> 00:25:19,680 road and there, but it's going to kind of probably be my deload 544 00:25:19,680 --> 00:25:22,040 because I'm not going to have my normal gym setting. 545 00:25:22,160 --> 00:25:26,120 Sure, but if you do a deload before I leave the week before I 546 00:25:26,120 --> 00:25:30,160 leave and I do a deload the week after, what's the best way to 547 00:25:30,160 --> 00:25:31,560 structure that? Like are you going to just go to 548 00:25:31,560 --> 00:25:33,840 the gym every day still and then just do water intensity? 549 00:25:33,840 --> 00:25:35,680 I might just do well because we're thinking about 550 00:25:35,680 --> 00:25:38,120 transitioning into a full body daily split, right? 551 00:25:38,480 --> 00:25:40,200 Yeah. So I can just go heavy while 552 00:25:40,200 --> 00:25:43,240 you're going light this coming week and then you do your deload 553 00:25:43,240 --> 00:25:45,000 and then I'll do mine kind of while I'm on the road. 554 00:25:45,000 --> 00:25:47,200 And then when we come back, we'll just transition to full 555 00:25:47,200 --> 00:25:48,800 body. Well, how about we just finish 556 00:25:48,840 --> 00:25:53,720 out this week as we have it planned and then next week we 557 00:25:53,760 --> 00:25:56,160 can reassess, yeah. Yeah that works. 558 00:25:56,160 --> 00:25:58,760 I definitely want you to get healed up though man because 559 00:25:59,440 --> 00:26:02,240 it's weird jacked up lifting way more on chest day than you. 560 00:26:03,360 --> 00:26:05,360 I can lift way heavier on my right side than my left side 561 00:26:05,360 --> 00:26:06,360 right now. Yeah it's crazy. 562 00:26:06,400 --> 00:26:09,040 I woke up this morning and my entire delt was like it was 563 00:26:09,040 --> 00:26:13,800 flexed as hard as a rock and I can feel it when I move my arm 564 00:26:13,800 --> 00:26:15,520 around that. I've had a little restricted 565 00:26:15,520 --> 00:26:18,120 range of motion and I've never been one to be injured. 566 00:26:18,120 --> 00:26:20,720 Like I've never had like an actual injury while lifting and 567 00:26:20,920 --> 00:26:23,720 this didn't happen as an injury. Like there was no spot in time 568 00:26:23,720 --> 00:26:29,680 where I felt something pop or pull or tear or even like pain 569 00:26:29,680 --> 00:26:33,200 during a lift. So it's almost like, and I've 570 00:26:33,200 --> 00:26:36,240 got a weird spot in that part of my back that I've had since like 571 00:26:36,240 --> 00:26:38,640 even high school. And I had someone look at it one 572 00:26:38,640 --> 00:26:40,560 time and they're like, oh, you maybe had an injury way back 573 00:26:40,560 --> 00:26:42,320 when you were younger and you have some inflammation or 574 00:26:42,320 --> 00:26:45,200 something that's kind of scar tissued up or whatever in that 575 00:26:45,200 --> 00:26:47,080 area. So anytime I go get a massage, 576 00:26:47,240 --> 00:26:49,720 she always hones in on that same exact spot. 577 00:26:49,720 --> 00:26:52,920 I'm wondering if it's something related to that where it's just 578 00:26:54,000 --> 00:26:55,760 tight muscle. Some of them won't release. 579 00:26:55,760 --> 00:26:58,080 I don't know what the deal is. Have you ever tried like 580 00:26:58,200 --> 00:27:00,480 targeted red light therapy for injury? 581 00:27:00,560 --> 00:27:03,680 No, I've not. Cuz I've actually got a podcast. 582 00:27:03,680 --> 00:27:06,680 The reason I said is I got a podcast today with an owner of a 583 00:27:06,680 --> 00:27:09,600 red light company and he gave me one. 584 00:27:09,600 --> 00:27:14,240 So I've got like a targeted red light device, but I don't ever 585 00:27:14,240 --> 00:27:16,680 really have acute pain. So I have not been able to like 586 00:27:16,680 --> 00:27:18,200 test it out to see if it makes a difference. 587 00:27:18,720 --> 00:27:20,880 But I've got it at the house. You want me to just let you 588 00:27:20,880 --> 00:27:22,440 borrow that and see if you can notice the difference? 589 00:27:22,440 --> 00:27:24,400 Is it just something like a on a stand or a? 590 00:27:24,400 --> 00:27:27,040 What? No, it's like it's it's three 591 00:27:27,040 --> 00:27:30,000 lights and it's like on a strap, but you got a strap to your 592 00:27:30,040 --> 00:27:31,360 shoulder. Yeah, I had it on my neck the 593 00:27:31,360 --> 00:27:33,680 other day. But you could put that on your 594 00:27:33,680 --> 00:27:36,360 shoulder, OK, Right there on your central back area and see 595 00:27:36,360 --> 00:27:37,920 if it makes a difference at all. I don't know. 596 00:27:38,040 --> 00:27:39,480 I'm down. So yeah. 597 00:27:39,760 --> 00:27:42,600 Yeah, we're just popping like ibuprofen and whatever. 598 00:27:42,600 --> 00:27:45,200 And I'm not a huge fan of pain meds ever. 599 00:27:45,320 --> 00:27:46,760 Yeah. And it's the only thing that 600 00:27:46,760 --> 00:27:48,080 kind of keep it tame right now, so. 601 00:27:48,440 --> 00:27:51,520 Yeah, I don't like pain meds. I haven't taken pain meds in a 602 00:27:51,560 --> 00:27:52,920 long time. When I was, when I was younger, 603 00:27:52,920 --> 00:27:55,000 when I was overweight, when I was just eating like crap and 604 00:27:55,000 --> 00:27:57,400 feeling like crap, I used to be on ibuprofen for headaches and 605 00:27:57,400 --> 00:27:58,960 muscle soreness and all that kind of stuff. 606 00:27:59,280 --> 00:28:03,680 And I've since drifted way away from any type of pills, potions, 607 00:28:03,680 --> 00:28:06,840 meds, prescriptions. I usually take nothing because I 608 00:28:06,840 --> 00:28:07,840 don't have anything to deal with. 609 00:28:08,120 --> 00:28:10,480 But. I had surgery once when I was a 610 00:28:10,480 --> 00:28:15,560 kid and they gave me Oxycontin. That's a that's a pain reliever, 611 00:28:15,560 --> 00:28:18,320 right? Oxycontin and I think I had one 612 00:28:18,920 --> 00:28:22,360 the the day after the surgery, but I couldn't tell the 613 00:28:22,360 --> 00:28:24,280 difference from it. So I just threw away the bottle 614 00:28:24,280 --> 00:28:25,720 and I used it after that. Just hold on. 615 00:28:25,840 --> 00:28:26,600 Just. Kidding. 616 00:28:28,760 --> 00:28:30,680 Yeah, I don't know. I just don't like pain meds, 617 00:28:30,680 --> 00:28:33,160 man. I like to feel the pain and just 618 00:28:33,160 --> 00:28:35,840 like know where my body actually sits as opposed to masking it. 619 00:28:36,040 --> 00:28:38,400 Well, I just don't like to put random weird shit in my body. 620 00:28:38,640 --> 00:28:41,400 Yeah, you know, that's just hard on your organs, too. 621 00:28:41,680 --> 00:28:44,040 Hard on your organs. All right, man. 622 00:28:44,040 --> 00:28:46,200 Well, we've done multiple takes to this podcast. 623 00:28:46,200 --> 00:28:47,720 We've got a lot of technical issues. 624 00:28:47,720 --> 00:28:50,400 I got a client call in just a few minutes. 625 00:28:50,840 --> 00:28:54,760 So to the viewer, to the listener, I apologize. 626 00:28:54,760 --> 00:28:59,840 This one didn't flow as good as they will, but we got it done 627 00:28:59,840 --> 00:29:02,000 nonetheless. We haven't missed our weekly 628 00:29:02,000 --> 00:29:05,000 cadence with it. So we will be back hard and 629 00:29:05,000 --> 00:29:08,840 heavy next week. We've been being gone for like a 630 00:29:08,840 --> 00:29:09,880 week and 1/2. What are we going to? 631 00:29:09,880 --> 00:29:10,720 Do now, yeah, we're going to have to. 632 00:29:10,720 --> 00:29:12,840 Maybe we can preemptively record a couple or something. 633 00:29:13,320 --> 00:29:16,160 Yeah, yeah. I might have to do that next. 634 00:29:16,160 --> 00:29:19,320 Week we're going to be packaging sold out Primo fudge. 635 00:29:20,000 --> 00:29:23,840 Yeah, it will sell out it. Will sell out. 636 00:29:23,960 --> 00:29:26,680 Yeah, yeah, Primo Fudge will launch and that'll be a big 637 00:29:26,960 --> 00:29:31,320 package day. So we could just for for y'all, 638 00:29:31,760 --> 00:29:34,640 because you are in the inside scoop with these the work 639 00:29:34,640 --> 00:29:36,880 podcasts. We're going to have a spoof 640 00:29:36,960 --> 00:29:40,400 launch on April 1st. We're planning to, we're 641 00:29:40,680 --> 00:29:41,680 planning to know what the details. 642 00:29:41,720 --> 00:29:42,920 We can tell these people though, right? 643 00:29:43,160 --> 00:29:45,080 Like they can be in the know. Yeah, but we don't know what the 644 00:29:45,080 --> 00:29:46,320 details are going. To be yeah, we don't know what 645 00:29:46,320 --> 00:29:48,080 the details are going to be, but we're probably going to put out 646 00:29:48,080 --> 00:29:50,640 a social post for the people that are ignorant and don't 647 00:29:50,640 --> 00:29:53,760 watch the work podcast. They might get excited, probably 648 00:29:53,760 --> 00:29:55,760 not that we're going to make it very much so like. 649 00:29:56,120 --> 00:29:58,720 An unexciting. It would be something that we 650 00:29:58,720 --> 00:29:59,960 definitely would never launch It's. 651 00:30:00,040 --> 00:30:01,880 Going to be like what the is that? 652 00:30:02,000 --> 00:30:04,360 To like be in line with the April Fool's launch. 653 00:30:04,360 --> 00:30:07,560 So when you see a social media post on the 1st of something 654 00:30:07,560 --> 00:30:10,160 totally off the wall that we would never do know that we're 655 00:30:10,160 --> 00:30:14,160 not actually doing it to. Be like our highest carb brick 656 00:30:14,200 --> 00:30:18,080 ever. Yeah, sweetened with sucralose 657 00:30:18,080 --> 00:30:20,240 and table sugar. And Castor oil. 658 00:30:20,400 --> 00:30:23,000 And made with soybean oil something. 659 00:30:23,000 --> 00:30:25,320 Like that but you say OL. I say oil. 660 00:30:25,320 --> 00:30:26,440 We had this conversation the other day. 661 00:30:26,440 --> 00:30:30,360 We have this conversation. It's OL spelled OOIL. 662 00:30:30,680 --> 00:30:33,080 It's oil. That's what a goober says Oil. 663 00:30:33,320 --> 00:30:35,160 That's how the goober says that's how you pronounce it. 664 00:30:35,480 --> 00:30:38,080 Oil. I think you should go Google the 665 00:30:38,080 --> 00:30:41,800 pronunciation of OIL well. It just depends who the the 666 00:30:41,800 --> 00:30:44,120 commentator narrator is that they're from the South or from 667 00:30:44,120 --> 00:30:45,160 the north. Does that hurt? 668 00:30:45,160 --> 00:30:49,920 Other people in here in this area say oil, but everyone up 669 00:30:49,920 --> 00:30:51,880 north says oil. Yeah, it's definitely oil. 670 00:30:52,680 --> 00:30:54,360 Oil sounds more mainly water oil. 671 00:30:54,640 --> 00:30:57,600 Put some motor oil in my oil reservoir. 672 00:30:57,640 --> 00:31:00,600 Yeah, oil reservoir. All right, ma'am. 673 00:31:00,680 --> 00:31:02,320 Well, that's a ramp on this episode. 674 00:31:03,360 --> 00:31:05,280 We'll hit it again next week. Toodles. 675 00:31:05,400 --> 00:31:05,720 See ya.
