1
00:00:00,040 --> 00:00:05,000
I'm trying to find the time for 
the Mr. Olympia October 9th 

2
00:00:05,000 --> 00:00:06,560
through 12th. 
Oh, yeah. 

3
00:00:06,880 --> 00:00:08,680
Yeah, yeah, yeah. 
Maybe gone that weekend though, 

4
00:00:08,760 --> 00:00:10,840
and maybe it's squirrel camp I 
think. 

5
00:00:10,840 --> 00:00:13,800
Squirrel Camp, Yeah. 
I tell that to people. 

6
00:00:13,800 --> 00:00:16,079
I always get the same response. 
Yeah, look at me, like, are you 

7
00:00:16,160 --> 00:00:17,200
serious? 
That's the thing, yeah. 

8
00:00:17,200 --> 00:00:23,440
Camp like you have to. 
Yeah, we we go to the family 

9
00:00:23,440 --> 00:00:26,680
farm and we have deer camp, we 
have squirrel camp. 

10
00:00:26,680 --> 00:00:29,600
In squirrel camp, we hunt 
squirrels one morning, but the 

11
00:00:29,600 --> 00:00:31,960
majority of the camp is working 
on the cabin. 

12
00:00:31,960 --> 00:00:34,640
So we got to Bush hog the 
fields, we got to work on the 

13
00:00:34,640 --> 00:00:36,920
cabin, we got to brush, brush, 
hog the bank. 

14
00:00:38,040 --> 00:00:43,160
How many squirrels do you beg? 
Normally I think the limit's 11.

15
00:00:43,360 --> 00:00:45,120
There's a limit. 
Yeah, there's limits on 

16
00:00:45,120 --> 00:00:47,600
everything, but I'm. 
Pleased some of you there's no 

17
00:00:47,600 --> 00:00:49,360
game more and that comes and 
checks your squirrel. 

18
00:00:50,200 --> 00:00:52,840
Count there is I mean like they 
I don't think they've ever 

19
00:00:52,840 --> 00:00:54,520
checked us and we're friends 
with the game warden down there 

20
00:00:54,520 --> 00:00:55,960
so it's no big deal all right so
to. 

21
00:00:56,040 --> 00:00:58,680
Put that into context. 
When I lived up in northern 

22
00:00:58,680 --> 00:01:02,600
Minnesota, we would just go out 
on the deck and take squirrels 

23
00:01:02,600 --> 00:01:04,840
out of the trees randomly 
because they were nuisance 

24
00:01:04,840 --> 00:01:06,040
animals. 
Yeah, well, if. 

25
00:01:06,040 --> 00:01:07,880
You're red squirrels. 
Red squirrels were nuisance 

26
00:01:07,880 --> 00:01:10,080
animals and they would get into 
everything and they would climb 

27
00:01:10,080 --> 00:01:12,880
on my parents' house and just 
not so we. 

28
00:01:12,880 --> 00:01:14,360
Would, I mean, they can 
certainly be a nuisance and 

29
00:01:14,360 --> 00:01:15,600
that's kind of like a separate 
category. 

30
00:01:15,600 --> 00:01:18,280
But if you're hunting them, it's
a small game license. 

31
00:01:18,280 --> 00:01:20,480
So it applies for like rabid 
squirrels, things like that. 

32
00:01:21,640 --> 00:01:24,000
And I think squirrel limit is 11
in that zone. 

33
00:01:24,080 --> 00:01:26,840
Do you eat them? 
Yeah, yeah, we make, they make 

34
00:01:26,840 --> 00:01:28,000
squirrel and dumplings with 
them. 

35
00:01:28,000 --> 00:01:29,880
I don't need dumplings, 
obviously, but yeah, they'll. 

36
00:01:30,240 --> 00:01:33,880
So everybody that hunts normally
comes back with three to 456 

37
00:01:33,880 --> 00:01:36,760
squirrels and there's normally 
like 10-12 of us down there. 

38
00:01:36,760 --> 00:01:37,920
So it's pretty good. 
Pile of squirrels. 

39
00:01:37,920 --> 00:01:39,480
So you have like 70 squirrels 
hanging out. 

40
00:01:39,880 --> 00:01:42,480
Yeah. 
And then everybody, we boil 

41
00:01:42,480 --> 00:01:45,560
them. 
So we skin them, gut them, and 

42
00:01:45,560 --> 00:01:47,920
then we cut like the legs, 
that's where most of the meat 

43
00:01:47,920 --> 00:01:50,280
is. 
And then we'll hit take all 

44
00:01:50,280 --> 00:01:53,440
those chunks, put them in a big 
stainless steel kettle and then 

45
00:01:53,440 --> 00:01:56,600
they boil all day long. 
And then after they're done 

46
00:01:56,600 --> 00:01:59,000
cooling, you just peel the meat 
off the bone. 

47
00:01:59,240 --> 00:02:00,520
Then we make squirrel and 
dumplings. 

48
00:02:01,720 --> 00:02:04,520
Like mind boggled right now. 
What are the macros on squirrel 

49
00:02:04,520 --> 00:02:05,520
meat? 
They're pretty lame. 

50
00:02:05,720 --> 00:02:06,680
Pretty lame. 
Like venison. 

51
00:02:07,160 --> 00:02:08,360
Yeah. 
It's kind of like rabbit, 

52
00:02:08,360 --> 00:02:10,280
honestly. 
But squirrels are cool, man. 

53
00:02:10,280 --> 00:02:12,640
Like watching. 
I actually enjoy squirrel 

54
00:02:12,640 --> 00:02:14,640
hunting more than deer hunting. 
Because with squirrel hunting, 

55
00:02:15,160 --> 00:02:17,240
like you're able to just walk 
around, you're looking up in the

56
00:02:17,240 --> 00:02:20,120
trees like you see a lot more. 
Well, yeah, sure, there's 

57
00:02:20,200 --> 00:02:22,040
probably quite a few more 
squirrels in there. 

58
00:02:22,040 --> 00:02:23,400
I do. 
Yeah, and you take AI. 

59
00:02:23,400 --> 00:02:25,720
Don't know. 
It's just peaceful out there. 

60
00:02:27,400 --> 00:02:28,560
Yeah, it's just cool. 
I like it. 

61
00:02:28,960 --> 00:02:30,280
Think squirrel hunting sometime,
man. 

62
00:02:30,400 --> 00:02:32,560
Think squirrel hunting. 
OK. 

63
00:02:33,440 --> 00:02:38,440
Anyways, what was that about to?
We got a couple of main things 

64
00:02:38,440 --> 00:02:39,680
that we want to make sure we hit
on. 

65
00:02:40,160 --> 00:02:45,080
One is the fact that we just got
back from Rocktown Naturals 

66
00:02:45,120 --> 00:02:48,080
Bodybuilding show, which is the 
second year for that show. 

67
00:02:48,120 --> 00:02:49,800
It was in Little Rock, AR on 
Saturday. 

68
00:02:51,360 --> 00:02:53,480
Keto Brick sponsored it. 
So you were rocking the Keto 

69
00:02:53,480 --> 00:02:56,000
Brick booth? 
I was going to be a judge. 

70
00:02:56,000 --> 00:02:58,320
Then I got asked to MC. 
So I was MC in the whole time. 

71
00:02:58,320 --> 00:03:00,680
First time doing them. 
I feel like it went pretty 

72
00:03:00,680 --> 00:03:02,040
smooth. 
Yeah, I agree. 

73
00:03:02,160 --> 00:03:05,320
I popped my head in numerous 
times throughout the event, just

74
00:03:05,320 --> 00:03:06,320
kind of see how things were 
going. 

75
00:03:06,520 --> 00:03:09,720
I don't, I think they had like 
19 total competitors so 

76
00:03:10,160 --> 00:03:12,640
relatively smaller in that 
regard, but like their bikini 

77
00:03:12,640 --> 00:03:14,320
class and their classic physique
class. 

78
00:03:14,320 --> 00:03:15,600
Reported. 
They were stacked, they were 

79
00:03:15,760 --> 00:03:19,840
huge and. 
The guy that won the overall in 

80
00:03:19,840 --> 00:03:21,640
Classic, I mean, I talked to him
afterwards. 

81
00:03:21,640 --> 00:03:23,480
That was his fourth show this 
year. 

82
00:03:23,480 --> 00:03:25,080
I think he did the Wisconsin 
show. 

83
00:03:25,560 --> 00:03:27,400
He looked good. 
Yeah, like he looked familiar. 

84
00:03:27,400 --> 00:03:28,640
I'm pretty sure he was at the 
show. 

85
00:03:28,640 --> 00:03:30,120
I just did a couple. 
Weeks ago he looked real good. 

86
00:03:30,120 --> 00:03:32,360
I was talking to my man, you got
to do my show in September. 

87
00:03:32,640 --> 00:03:36,120
He's like, man, I'm done. 
I've been in prep for 29 weeks 

88
00:03:36,120 --> 00:03:38,840
or whatever it was. 
But he looked good man, like he 

89
00:03:38,840 --> 00:03:40,840
had. 
He deserved to win for sure. 

90
00:03:40,840 --> 00:03:42,320
He had the right posing, was 
downed. 

91
00:03:42,520 --> 00:03:44,760
He. 
Was the best poser too, but his 

92
00:03:44,760 --> 00:03:47,160
posing was down, his symmetry 
was good. 

93
00:03:48,120 --> 00:03:50,040
He could have gotten a little 
leaner but he was in classic. 

94
00:03:50,040 --> 00:03:52,560
So honestly I think his physique
for classic was perfect because.

95
00:03:52,560 --> 00:03:54,240
You don't want to over overdo 
the lean. 

96
00:03:54,280 --> 00:03:56,960
He could have done bodybuilding,
like he could have competed in a

97
00:03:56,960 --> 00:03:58,800
bodybuilding class and totally 
looked the part. 

98
00:03:59,440 --> 00:04:00,840
But yeah, he looked great. 
I'm going to get him on the 

99
00:04:00,840 --> 00:04:02,680
podcast I sent him. 
AI was talking to him backstage.

100
00:04:02,680 --> 00:04:04,720
And hey, man, let me dive deeper
into your world. 

101
00:04:04,720 --> 00:04:05,520
He's 29 years. 
Old. 

102
00:04:05,520 --> 00:04:06,720
I was just going to say, how old
is he OK? 

103
00:04:06,720 --> 00:04:09,480
29 So yeah, I'm gonna get him on
the show. 

104
00:04:10,280 --> 00:04:12,200
But yeah, the the show itself 
was was pretty cool. 

105
00:04:12,200 --> 00:04:16,440
It's not. 
There was only one bodybuilding 

106
00:04:16,440 --> 00:04:18,200
class, it was the 40 plus 
there's. 

107
00:04:18,200 --> 00:04:21,399
Only two competitive classes. 
So pretty light there, but. 

108
00:04:21,440 --> 00:04:23,520
But classic and bikini, those 
are going to be those are going 

109
00:04:23,520 --> 00:04:26,280
to be the two, yeah, top classes
I I feel like. 

110
00:04:26,320 --> 00:04:28,640
Yep, Yep. 
There was like a a teen, it was 

111
00:04:28,640 --> 00:04:30,280
like 16 years old and he was 
killing him. 

112
00:04:31,280 --> 00:04:33,440
So it was cool. 
I feel like how how'd how'd it 

113
00:04:33,440 --> 00:04:36,280
go from the boost standpoint? 
You get a lot of I'm going to 

114
00:04:36,280 --> 00:04:37,240
talk to you about that. 
It was. 

115
00:04:37,320 --> 00:04:40,120
It was good. 
A lot of people that had never 

116
00:04:40,120 --> 00:04:44,080
heard of us in, they had a 
really good chance to give them 

117
00:04:44,080 --> 00:04:45,320
a first impression. 
They loved it. 

118
00:04:45,320 --> 00:04:47,800
And then there was actually 
quite a few people who are 

119
00:04:47,800 --> 00:04:50,800
familiar with us, have seen us 
at other events or just know who

120
00:04:50,800 --> 00:04:53,320
we are and what we do. 
Or they've been past customers 

121
00:04:53,800 --> 00:04:55,800
and they came right over and 
they're like, Oh yeah, this is 

122
00:04:55,800 --> 00:04:57,600
my favorite one. 
And they were kind of like 

123
00:04:57,800 --> 00:04:59,680
bringing their friends over, 
like, hey, you got to try this, 

124
00:04:59,680 --> 00:05:03,040
you got to try this. 
There was a nutrition shop that 

125
00:05:03,040 --> 00:05:04,480
was set up right around the 
corner. 

126
00:05:04,640 --> 00:05:07,040
They they had a booth there and 
we had a chance to kind of 

127
00:05:07,040 --> 00:05:10,120
mingle with them and talk about 
the nutrition that's in the 

128
00:05:10,120 --> 00:05:13,240
bricks, the ingredients, and 
they had potential interest in 

129
00:05:13,320 --> 00:05:16,400
maybe throwing them on their 
shelves just because they can 

130
00:05:16,400 --> 00:05:20,960
see the potential in those. 
There was a table of military 

131
00:05:20,960 --> 00:05:22,200
dudes, I think. 
Was it Army? 

132
00:05:22,200 --> 00:05:22,960
Yeah. 
I think it was. 

133
00:05:23,000 --> 00:05:24,400
Army National, was it? 
Army National Guard? 

134
00:05:24,400 --> 00:05:26,840
Yeah. 
They were right, right there 

135
00:05:26,840 --> 00:05:28,760
next to me. 
And we had a chance to kind of 

136
00:05:28,880 --> 00:05:32,520
exchange some facts and 
everything or, you know, just 

137
00:05:32,520 --> 00:05:33,600
talk about the bricks and 
everything. 

138
00:05:33,600 --> 00:05:36,960
And they were thinking that 
they'd be pretty sweet for 

139
00:05:36,960 --> 00:05:40,120
military application. 
And I told them about that ruck 

140
00:05:41,040 --> 00:05:42,040
research that we did. 
Yep. 

141
00:05:42,960 --> 00:05:45,240
So it's good. 
We had a lot of interaction when

142
00:05:45,240 --> 00:05:49,280
you were on stage MC and you 
mentioned, you know, a little 

143
00:05:49,280 --> 00:05:52,040
shout out to Keto brick. 
And then intermission came and 

144
00:05:52,040 --> 00:05:54,440
everything. 
We had a flood of people. 

145
00:05:54,520 --> 00:05:56,240
We were, we were at the table 
definitely. 

146
00:05:56,920 --> 00:05:59,160
And competitors, I did have a 
chance to talk to a lot of the 

147
00:05:59,160 --> 00:06:01,760
competitors. 
They came over and got a handful

148
00:06:01,760 --> 00:06:05,160
of bricks for their post 
competition that I'll treat, you

149
00:06:05,160 --> 00:06:09,880
know, little sweets. 
They went good, they liked it. 

150
00:06:09,920 --> 00:06:12,200
Yep. 
Well, I had to, I had a call 

151
00:06:12,200 --> 00:06:16,160
last night with the president of
the WNBF with like a coach or 

152
00:06:16,160 --> 00:06:18,160
not coaches, but like a 
promoters meeting. 

153
00:06:19,760 --> 00:06:22,320
And he he's got a couple big 
shows. 

154
00:06:22,320 --> 00:06:23,640
So he does the Muscle Mayhem 
show. 

155
00:06:23,640 --> 00:06:27,440
He's got to show this I think 
August 2nd, yeah, August 2nd. 

156
00:06:27,680 --> 00:06:30,520
And we sent him a bunch of 
bricks for swag bags there. 

157
00:06:30,520 --> 00:06:34,600
And it's cool because like Keto 
Brick's been sponsoring a bunch 

158
00:06:34,600 --> 00:06:36,120
of these natural bodybuilding 
shows. 

159
00:06:36,120 --> 00:06:38,000
So like we're putting them in 
the swag bags. 

160
00:06:38,320 --> 00:06:41,440
Like the competitors that are 
not keto by any means are like 

161
00:06:41,520 --> 00:06:46,480
starting to get introduced to 
Keto Brick, which is cool 'cause

162
00:06:46,480 --> 00:06:48,920
I mean, it's perfect application
in their regard, even if they're

163
00:06:48,920 --> 00:06:51,920
not keto for their pump up, you 
know, show day. 

164
00:06:52,880 --> 00:06:55,600
So I was talking to Bob and I'm 
like, hey man, you know, tell 

165
00:06:55,600 --> 00:06:57,080
them this. 
Like this is, this could 

166
00:06:57,080 --> 00:07:02,000
basically replace their rice 
cake, peanut butter, honey Jelly

167
00:07:02,320 --> 00:07:05,920
combo that they typically do. 
So hopefully we'll just keep 

168
00:07:05,920 --> 00:07:08,240
getting the word out for natural
bodybuilders. 

169
00:07:08,240 --> 00:07:09,920
In that, yeah, I was surprised 
how many people actually were 

170
00:07:09,920 --> 00:07:11,920
familiar with Cuter Brick good 
at this show. 

171
00:07:12,000 --> 00:07:15,360
So it's cool. 
What else? 

172
00:07:15,600 --> 00:07:17,640
Haven't tried this, is it good? 
Yeah, fruit punch. 

173
00:07:18,000 --> 00:07:19,640
Zevia fruit punch? 
Is that like one of their new 

174
00:07:19,640 --> 00:07:21,880
new ones? 
Yeah, there's a strawberry lemon

175
00:07:22,400 --> 00:07:23,960
burst or something like that. 
Yeah. 

176
00:07:23,960 --> 00:07:27,520
And which? 
One of your favorite Zevia? 

177
00:07:27,760 --> 00:07:29,080
Probably that strawberry lemon 
burst. 

178
00:07:29,240 --> 00:07:31,800
I got a couple on the fridge. 
I'm rocking a coffee with some 

179
00:07:31,800 --> 00:07:33,280
keto brains in it right now. 
Oh nice. 

180
00:07:33,600 --> 00:07:36,280
My nootropic SIM, yeah. 
Full A full scoop. 

181
00:07:36,840 --> 00:07:39,200
Full scoop 16 grams, ma'am. 
Let's mess around. 

182
00:07:39,240 --> 00:07:42,040
I think 16.8 isn't it? 
Yeah, I just did 16. 

183
00:07:42,040 --> 00:07:47,000
Yeah, I just did 16. 
So you we did the FGF 21 high 

184
00:07:47,000 --> 00:07:50,680
fat 4 to one for you last week. 
That just wrapped up on 

185
00:07:50,680 --> 00:07:52,520
Saturday. 
Yeah, that was the last day of. 

186
00:07:52,520 --> 00:07:56,600
That so now you're back to a 
standard distribution of macros.

187
00:07:56,600 --> 00:07:58,680
Right now I'm at a 1 to 1, 1:00 
to 1:00. 

188
00:07:58,720 --> 00:08:03,520
Grams but higher calories than 
you were, lower than the FGF 21 

189
00:08:03,520 --> 00:08:08,360
but higher than what you were 
prior to the FGF 21, and you 

190
00:08:08,360 --> 00:08:11,240
threw in some cauliflower rice 
during the high fat which your 

191
00:08:11,240 --> 00:08:13,640
GI did not tolerate super well. 
I was not. 

192
00:08:14,360 --> 00:08:16,560
I used to do a fair amount of 
that kind of thing. 

193
00:08:16,920 --> 00:08:23,520
I have not for it's probably 
been 5 plus years and so adding 

194
00:08:23,520 --> 00:08:27,280
in the cauliflower rice as a 
vehicle for soaking up some of 

195
00:08:27,280 --> 00:08:31,520
that extra dietary fat through 
my GI into a whole new world. 

196
00:08:31,960 --> 00:08:34,559
Which if I were to continue 
doing that, I feel like it would

197
00:08:34,559 --> 00:08:37,720
probably right itself and it 
would get just acclimate to that

198
00:08:37,720 --> 00:08:41,080
and it'd be fine. 
But I'd noticed bloat like that.

199
00:08:41,080 --> 00:08:44,080
I showed you a picture 1/2 an 
hour after me eating that meal 

200
00:08:44,080 --> 00:08:45,080
and it looked like I was 
pregnant. 

201
00:08:45,080 --> 00:08:48,640
It looked like I was forcefully 
extending my stomach. 

202
00:08:48,800 --> 00:08:52,600
Yeah, that was all bloat. 
Like whenever you switch and you

203
00:08:52,640 --> 00:08:55,440
introduce carbs or fiber 
specifically, like you got to 

204
00:08:55,440 --> 00:08:58,280
give yourself two weeks for the 
microbiome to acclimate. 

205
00:08:58,600 --> 00:09:00,560
And we weren't really doing it 
for that. 

206
00:09:00,560 --> 00:09:02,920
That was just a delivery vehicle
for the fat, right? 

207
00:09:03,640 --> 00:09:06,560
So I'm not surprised that you 
had some bloat and water 

208
00:09:06,560 --> 00:09:10,760
retention, intestinal fluid 
increase, but I think from a 

209
00:09:10,760 --> 00:09:13,840
metabolic standpoint it was 
probably favorable for. 

210
00:09:13,880 --> 00:09:16,840
You I think so because I already
already yesterday was the first 

211
00:09:16,840 --> 00:09:18,560
day back. 
Yesterday's being Sunday. 

212
00:09:18,680 --> 00:09:21,080
We're recording this on Monday. 
Yesterday was the first day back

213
00:09:21,080 --> 00:09:26,400
on just like the standard macros
and today already this morning, 

214
00:09:26,440 --> 00:09:30,480
I can feel my hunger is like 
just dialed like it. 

215
00:09:30,600 --> 00:09:32,520
I'm going to probably eat lunch 
after we get done here. 

216
00:09:33,120 --> 00:09:37,560
So I, I can physically feel that
that has kind of clicked up a 

217
00:09:37,560 --> 00:09:40,880
couple notches. 
I know that the water retention 

218
00:09:40,880 --> 00:09:43,880
in, in the midsection bloat and 
just the softness is going to go

219
00:09:43,880 --> 00:09:45,640
away. 
I would imagine probably even 

220
00:09:45,640 --> 00:09:47,840
this week, just going to dial in
the water, dial in the 

221
00:09:47,840 --> 00:09:52,720
electrolytes, keep everything 
you know on track and see how it

222
00:09:52,720 --> 00:09:55,120
goes. 
I'm up a few pounds but I'm not 

223
00:09:55,120 --> 00:09:57,920
really too worried about it. 
In the long we got 9 weeks 

224
00:09:57,960 --> 00:10:00,560
until. 9 weeks ago, I think it's
8 until like peak week, yeah. 

225
00:10:00,720 --> 00:10:04,880
Yeah, so you got time to get 
dialed and that water will flush

226
00:10:04,880 --> 00:10:06,280
out. 
It'd be good. 

227
00:10:06,280 --> 00:10:07,480
I'm excited to see you. 
Yeah, you too. 

228
00:10:07,480 --> 00:10:10,240
You definitely bring bring a 
better package than your first 

229
00:10:10,240 --> 00:10:11,640
show. 
Yeah, I have a feeling this this

230
00:10:11,640 --> 00:10:13,280
would be a good progressive 
week. 

231
00:10:13,280 --> 00:10:14,640
Yeah. 
So stay tuned. 

232
00:10:14,840 --> 00:10:16,840
Yep. 
In other words, or in other 

233
00:10:16,840 --> 00:10:20,000
news, you and I both just got 
done knocking out of VO2 Max 

234
00:10:20,000 --> 00:10:22,080
test for the first time. 
Yes, that was cool. 

235
00:10:22,120 --> 00:10:24,000
Yep. 
So the place that we get our 

236
00:10:24,000 --> 00:10:27,360
DEXA scans that just opened up. 
So we have Dexas locally now, 

237
00:10:28,080 --> 00:10:32,240
which Speaking of, he's hooking 
up all of the people coming to 

238
00:10:32,240 --> 00:10:35,280
my show, whether they're 
competitors or not, 50% discount

239
00:10:35,280 --> 00:10:42,080
on their DEXA scans and a free 
3D imaging scan that he's 

240
00:10:42,200 --> 00:10:44,000
hosting like a open house the 
week of the show. 

241
00:10:44,000 --> 00:10:46,600
We're going to do an open house 
Thursday night and an open house

242
00:10:46,600 --> 00:10:48,040
Friday morning. 
Yeah, so that'll be cool. 

243
00:10:48,040 --> 00:10:49,520
Anybody listen? 
It's coming to the show as a 

244
00:10:49,520 --> 00:10:52,880
competitor or an attendee, take 
advantage of that for sure. 

245
00:10:53,680 --> 00:10:57,560
But we got our VO2 Max, I went 
in a couple months ago and did a

246
00:10:57,720 --> 00:11:00,000
RMR test. 
So resting metabolic rate test, 

247
00:11:00,440 --> 00:11:03,360
which is pretty chill, like 
you're just sitting in a chair 

248
00:11:03,560 --> 00:11:06,640
breathing normally for 15 
minutes until it calculates your

249
00:11:06,640 --> 00:11:11,080
RMR with the VO2. 
And I put this in my newsletter,

250
00:11:11,080 --> 00:11:13,680
but basically it's designed to 
figure out what your maximum 

251
00:11:13,680 --> 00:11:17,640
oxygen capacity is at an intense
training session. 

252
00:11:17,640 --> 00:11:21,080
And the way it's conducted for 
us is he has a treadmill, super 

253
00:11:21,080 --> 00:11:24,200
nice treadmill, but he had a 
baseline test done. 

254
00:11:25,680 --> 00:11:29,040
Yours was kind of more like a 
like a fast walk slash jog. 

255
00:11:29,880 --> 00:11:33,400
Mine was like a slow jog slash 
faster jog. 

256
00:11:33,400 --> 00:11:36,680
What was your base speed? 
Do you remember 5? 

257
00:11:37,040 --> 00:11:39,800
5 1/2 or 6. 
I think mom was 6. 

258
00:11:40,120 --> 00:11:41,720
I think mine was 5 1/2 then. 
OK. 

259
00:11:42,480 --> 00:11:45,280
And then they so they did like 5
minutes to establish a baseline 

260
00:11:45,320 --> 00:11:49,640
and then after that baseline he 
would increase the the climb 

261
00:11:51,480 --> 00:11:53,520
like a level every minute I 
think. 

262
00:11:53,680 --> 00:11:56,560
Yeah, but we didn't start off at
like the 5 1/2 or 6 miles an 

263
00:11:56,560 --> 00:11:57,800
hour or mine. 
I didn't anyways. 

264
00:11:58,080 --> 00:12:00,480
No, no. 
So we started off, we scaled to 

265
00:12:00,560 --> 00:12:04,600
our our baseline speed and the 
speed held constant and then he 

266
00:12:04,600 --> 00:12:06,640
would just increase the grade 
every minute. 

267
00:12:08,720 --> 00:12:10,160
And your test was how long 
total? 

268
00:12:11,320 --> 00:12:13,240
I don't remember. 
Not as long as yours. 

269
00:12:13,440 --> 00:12:14,840
You you held out quite a bit 
longer. 

270
00:12:14,880 --> 00:12:16,280
Yeah, I. 
Think something like that. 

271
00:12:16,280 --> 00:12:19,080
It was. 
Like 14 maybe 1315? 

272
00:12:19,080 --> 00:12:21,640
Yeah, yeah. 
But the whole point being 

273
00:12:21,640 --> 00:12:26,760
basically figuring out what your
maximum aerobic capacity is, but

274
00:12:26,760 --> 00:12:31,440
from a metabolic stand. 
So my VO2 Max was 55 and I don't

275
00:12:31,560 --> 00:12:33,600
ever do cardio. 
So I don't really ever do zone 

276
00:12:33,600 --> 00:12:35,280
training. 
I don't ever train based off 

277
00:12:35,280 --> 00:12:36,680
heart rate. 
I don't want to eat that stuff. 

278
00:12:37,600 --> 00:12:40,720
So I was kind of curious to see 
what all that meant and 

279
00:12:41,600 --> 00:12:47,440
according to whatever data point
I looked at, 55 at my age range 

280
00:12:47,440 --> 00:12:51,160
is like 94.7% of the population.
Isn't that high? 

281
00:12:51,760 --> 00:12:58,600
No I'm in the 94th percentile 
for my age and sex VO2 Max so 

282
00:12:58,600 --> 00:13:00,520
that mean it's not bad. 
Were you? 

283
00:13:00,520 --> 00:13:02,920
Were you in like this super 
elite category? 

284
00:13:02,920 --> 00:13:04,960
Or something that superior 
category. 

285
00:13:05,600 --> 00:13:08,960
But it's like, like, I don't 
train cardio, so I'd be curious 

286
00:13:08,960 --> 00:13:10,720
to actually train cardio and 
then retest. 

287
00:13:11,640 --> 00:13:15,600
But the cool thing about all of 
this, and you and I had pretty 

288
00:13:15,600 --> 00:13:19,720
mirrored results in this regard,
is that since it's measuring 

289
00:13:20,120 --> 00:13:25,880
maximum oxygen capacity with 
intense aerobic training, I 

290
00:13:25,880 --> 00:13:28,960
mean, everybody, no matter what 
diet they're following, they're 

291
00:13:28,960 --> 00:13:32,360
tapping into glucose as a fuel 
source at the utmost level of 

292
00:13:32,440 --> 00:13:36,800
their intensity. 
So it measures out and it graphs

293
00:13:36,800 --> 00:13:39,600
out, you know, at what heart 
rate, at what intensity, at what

294
00:13:39,600 --> 00:13:43,600
time do you start to transition 
from more of a fat burning state

295
00:13:43,640 --> 00:13:45,840
to a carbohydrate glucose 
dependent state. 

296
00:13:46,200 --> 00:13:49,440
And you and I both having been 
fat adapted now for over a 

297
00:13:49,440 --> 00:13:54,000
decade, it was cool to see that 
neither you or I were using any 

298
00:13:54,000 --> 00:13:57,280
glucose initially. 
And the rate at which we 

299
00:13:57,280 --> 00:14:01,200
maintain primarily fat 
metabolism held on for much 

300
00:14:01,200 --> 00:14:04,080
longer than any of her, his 
other participants. 

301
00:14:04,920 --> 00:14:08,680
And we got both of those graphs.
So like for the first, I mean, I

302
00:14:08,680 --> 00:14:12,440
don't think I tapped into 
glucose metabolism until well 

303
00:14:12,440 --> 00:14:16,640
into the more intense 
intensities training sessions. 

304
00:14:16,640 --> 00:14:21,480
And then I didn't go, I didn't 
have glucose exceeding fat 

305
00:14:21,480 --> 00:14:24,240
metabolism until like the very 
end. 

306
00:14:25,080 --> 00:14:27,320
And at the very end, it was 
primarily glucose, obviously. 

307
00:14:27,320 --> 00:14:32,400
But it was cool to see that 
unfold because like people ask 

308
00:14:32,400 --> 00:14:35,280
me all the time on podcast, you 
know, like how, how does being 

309
00:14:35,280 --> 00:14:37,560
keto affect your training? 
Like what happens from your 

310
00:14:37,560 --> 00:14:39,720
performance standpoint? 
Like can you do endurance work? 

311
00:14:39,720 --> 00:14:43,680
Can you do, you know, short, 
intense, you know, anaerobic 

312
00:14:43,680 --> 00:14:45,800
work, aerobic work? 
Like they have all these ideas 

313
00:14:45,800 --> 00:14:47,720
as to what keto would not be 
applicable for. 

314
00:14:48,120 --> 00:14:49,400
And I'm not even an endurance 
athlete. 

315
00:14:49,400 --> 00:14:50,640
And I scored pretty well with 
that. 

316
00:14:50,920 --> 00:14:54,760
But it's like we both proved 
that if you're a fat adaptive, 

317
00:14:55,440 --> 00:14:59,520
you can prolong leveraging fat 
as your primary fuel substrate 

318
00:14:59,560 --> 00:15:02,680
for longer. 
And you've obviously got more 

319
00:15:02,680 --> 00:15:05,960
fat to tap into as a fuel 
substrate if you are fat adapted

320
00:15:05,960 --> 00:15:08,760
than if you're using primarily 
glucose and going to bonk. 

321
00:15:09,200 --> 00:15:12,840
So like that to me is pretty 
compelling for that being the 

322
00:15:12,840 --> 00:15:15,120
superior fuel source. 
I think it'd be cool to do 

323
00:15:15,120 --> 00:15:18,560
another one of these in, you 
know, a few months and do some 

324
00:15:18,560 --> 00:15:24,080
blood ketone and blood glucose 
measurements pre intra post just

325
00:15:24,080 --> 00:15:26,440
to see or even just throw CGM on
or something. 

326
00:15:27,000 --> 00:15:30,520
Just kind of see how that 
correlates to the output. 

327
00:15:31,240 --> 00:15:33,440
Yeah, I want to because I'm kind
of getting into like 50 mile 

328
00:15:33,440 --> 00:15:37,240
March prep right now. 
So I'd kind of be keen to go 

329
00:15:37,240 --> 00:15:41,400
back in and get a DEXA scan and 
then do another VO2 Max like at 

330
00:15:41,400 --> 00:15:45,760
the end of August or something 
and see if I could have moved 

331
00:15:45,760 --> 00:15:48,880
that that number up. 
But yeah, doing it alongside of 

332
00:15:48,880 --> 00:15:51,120
CGM would be would. 
Be awesome. 

333
00:15:51,160 --> 00:15:52,800
For sure did. 
You ever get your CGM? 

334
00:15:53,280 --> 00:15:54,360
I did get a replacement. 
Yeah, you. 

335
00:15:54,400 --> 00:15:55,280
Haven't put it in yet though, 
no. 

336
00:15:55,280 --> 00:15:59,360
When are you going to do that? 
I'm going to be gone half of 

337
00:15:59,360 --> 00:16:03,520
next week so I don't even want 
to have it on when I'm gone, so 

338
00:16:03,960 --> 00:16:05,720
maybe when I get back. 
When you get back, we'll 

339
00:16:05,720 --> 00:16:07,000
calibrate it. 
Is it? 

340
00:16:07,360 --> 00:16:08,760
What brand is that? 
One, it's a steelo. 

341
00:16:08,840 --> 00:16:12,320
Steelo. 
No, it's and I've had it several

342
00:16:12,320 --> 00:16:14,000
times, had them several times in
the past. 

343
00:16:14,000 --> 00:16:18,160
They're super. 
It's just a super basic end 

344
00:16:18,160 --> 00:16:23,320
user, you know, it's not 
intended for diabetic use. 

345
00:16:23,320 --> 00:16:26,960
It's not intended to, you know, 
give you 100% accurate data. 

346
00:16:27,520 --> 00:16:29,560
In fact, several of the people 
have said that they're pretty 

347
00:16:29,560 --> 00:16:32,360
skewed. 
My results last time I had one 

348
00:16:32,640 --> 00:16:34,800
seemed high. 
My readings seemed high. 

349
00:16:34,800 --> 00:16:36,760
It. 
Seems super high, yeah, like 

350
00:16:36,760 --> 00:16:39,000
higher than. 
That's why I wanted to get like 

351
00:16:39,000 --> 00:16:41,840
a glucometer test for you and 
see how closely they're 

352
00:16:42,120 --> 00:16:43,280
tracking. 
Yeah, obviously there's like 

353
00:16:43,280 --> 00:16:45,400
interstitial fluids. 
There's a little bit of a lag, 

354
00:16:46,000 --> 00:16:49,240
but I think it's measuring like 
a good 20 to 30 milligrams per 

355
00:16:49,240 --> 00:16:50,880
deciliter higher than it should 
be. 

356
00:16:50,920 --> 00:16:53,440
Yeah, I think so when I compared
it to something else, but it's 

357
00:16:53,440 --> 00:16:55,520
nice to just see what the. 
Trend is. 

358
00:16:55,520 --> 00:16:57,840
Yeah, what, what triggers 
movement? 

359
00:16:57,960 --> 00:16:59,800
You know, I don't necessarily 
look at what the readings are, 

360
00:16:59,800 --> 00:17:01,600
'cause I, that's not too 
concerning. 

361
00:17:01,600 --> 00:17:05,920
But when I had that last one in,
when we went to J Street and 

362
00:17:05,920 --> 00:17:08,800
trained legs fell off, that's 
where it fell off. 

363
00:17:08,800 --> 00:17:11,440
So I had to get another one. 
I had it on for like literally 

364
00:17:11,640 --> 00:17:13,520
less than one day and it just 
came off. 

365
00:17:13,880 --> 00:17:16,280
But when we were training legs 
and we were hitting some of that

366
00:17:16,280 --> 00:17:19,400
heavy stuff, it's cool to see 
blood sugar spike way up. 

367
00:17:19,400 --> 00:17:22,040
It went up to like 14150 and 
then fell back down do. 

368
00:17:22,240 --> 00:17:25,280
You ever look at your 'cause I 
don't normally wear my watch 

369
00:17:25,280 --> 00:17:27,800
when I'm weight training, 'cause
I got my wrist wraps on them? 

370
00:17:28,480 --> 00:17:30,160
But do you have your watch on 
usually? 

371
00:17:30,440 --> 00:17:33,520
Do you see like when you're 
doing a heavy, like we're doing 

372
00:17:33,520 --> 00:17:35,440
a leg press? 
Do you notice what your heart 

373
00:17:35,440 --> 00:17:38,520
rate is when you're doing like 
Max sets? 

374
00:17:38,520 --> 00:17:40,600
I don't. 
I don't usually look at the 

375
00:17:40,600 --> 00:17:42,320
heart rate, I just use it to 
track. 

376
00:17:42,480 --> 00:17:45,480
Because I'd be curious, like 
having done the VO2 Max, we can 

377
00:17:45,480 --> 00:17:47,920
kind of see based off of our 
heart rate when we start tapping

378
00:17:47,920 --> 00:17:50,760
into glucose, it'd be curious to
see, OK, if we're going all out 

379
00:17:50,760 --> 00:17:54,440
on heavy legs, what is our 
average heart rate throughout 

380
00:17:54,440 --> 00:17:56,480
that span? 
I mean, obviously our glucose is

381
00:17:56,480 --> 00:17:59,920
increasing, you know, in 
circulation because we're 

382
00:17:59,920 --> 00:18:02,800
mobilizing some of the muscle 
glycogen, liver glycogen, all 

383
00:18:02,800 --> 00:18:05,480
that stuff. 
But it's like we would still be 

384
00:18:05,480 --> 00:18:08,440
using fat primarily as a fuel 
substrate because it's still 

385
00:18:08,440 --> 00:18:12,000
well below maximum aerobic 
capacity ranges. 

386
00:18:12,240 --> 00:18:15,080
That's a good point. 
So yeah, I'm about to keep an 

387
00:18:15,080 --> 00:18:16,480
eye on that. 
But figure that out. 

388
00:18:16,480 --> 00:18:18,920
I guess weight training is going
to be just short bursts of 

389
00:18:18,920 --> 00:18:21,520
higher intensity. 
So you may have a, you know, a 

390
00:18:21,520 --> 00:18:23,800
burst and then a recovery and 
then a burst and then recovery. 

391
00:18:24,120 --> 00:18:28,800
But you and I don't take really 
significant rest between sets 

392
00:18:29,960 --> 00:18:30,360
like we. 
Don't. 

393
00:18:30,360 --> 00:18:32,600
Not powerlifting style. 
Yeah, we don't go 5 minutes 

394
00:18:32,600 --> 00:18:35,800
between sets, maybe a sort of 
detriment, but who knows. 

395
00:18:35,800 --> 00:18:38,120
But I, I like a pretty 
fast-paced workout like you and 

396
00:18:38,120 --> 00:18:41,400
I normally train for an hour, 
hour and 15 minutes and we get a

397
00:18:41,400 --> 00:18:45,520
lot done in that time. 
But I would imagine our heart 

398
00:18:45,520 --> 00:18:51,800
rate probably never exceeds like
120, maybe 1:30 if we're doing 

399
00:18:51,800 --> 00:18:54,920
like lunges or something, 
because like lunges gassy pretty

400
00:18:54,920 --> 00:18:55,680
good. 
Did kill me. 

401
00:18:55,680 --> 00:19:00,320
Squats kill me, lunges kill me. 
Yeah. 

402
00:19:00,320 --> 00:19:03,160
But you, you know, you do a set 
and then you pause. 

403
00:19:03,200 --> 00:19:05,360
Yeah. 
So it's not really elongated. 

404
00:19:05,520 --> 00:19:08,880
Yeah. 
In other words, in other news, 

405
00:19:08,920 --> 00:19:11,160
we've got. 
We're matching. 

406
00:19:11,520 --> 00:19:12,520
Yeah. 
Oh yeah. 

407
00:19:12,520 --> 00:19:14,320
You want to talk about these? 
Yeah, let's talk about these. 

408
00:19:14,480 --> 00:19:19,720
These are what go ahead. 
Brick by brick, 2025, baby. 

409
00:19:19,760 --> 00:19:25,000
Savage Container. 
So anybody that knows the Keto 

410
00:19:25,000 --> 00:19:28,720
brick brand in business and has 
for any length of time has 

411
00:19:28,720 --> 00:19:33,120
probably heard of our brick by 
brick promotional period. 

412
00:19:34,320 --> 00:19:37,240
To give everybody a little bit 
of a back story, we bought this 

413
00:19:37,240 --> 00:19:40,280
building, our current compound 
in 2020. 

414
00:19:41,400 --> 00:19:46,200
We had a year of renovation. 
We moved in in 2021, the year 

415
00:19:46,200 --> 00:19:49,480
that we moved in, we told 
everybody because we moved in 

416
00:19:49,480 --> 00:19:51,640
the month of August and we told 
everybody, hey look, anybody 

417
00:19:51,640 --> 00:19:55,480
that buys a brick during this 
move in period, you know we're 

418
00:19:55,480 --> 00:20:00,880
going to honor you helping us 
move by putting your name on one

419
00:20:00,880 --> 00:20:03,760
of the actual physical bricks of
our building, so. 

420
00:20:04,400 --> 00:20:06,800
We got like a front brick facade
on our. 

421
00:20:06,920 --> 00:20:09,000
Is that the right word? 
Yeah, Facade, it's, it's just 

422
00:20:09,120 --> 00:20:10,360
like a brick veneer. 
Yeah. 

423
00:20:10,360 --> 00:20:12,320
So that our whole front is the 
brick. 

424
00:20:12,320 --> 00:20:14,520
So we painted black and we got 
all these names on there. 

425
00:20:14,520 --> 00:20:18,080
Remember that bought a brick 
that 2021 year during that move 

426
00:20:18,080 --> 00:20:21,200
in period, but then we didn't 
have any more bricks pretty much

427
00:20:21,200 --> 00:20:22,920
like we used up all that real 
estate. 

428
00:20:23,240 --> 00:20:26,040
So every year thereafter we've 
kind of like had an anniversary 

429
00:20:26,040 --> 00:20:29,400
launch of that brick by brick 
move in period where we'll offer

430
00:20:29,400 --> 00:20:33,440
15% discount site wide at 
ketobrick.com. 

431
00:20:33,800 --> 00:20:38,200
And then we've done like a shirt
every year where, you know, they

432
00:20:38,200 --> 00:20:41,240
spend I think 250 bucks or more,
they get a free shirt. 

433
00:20:41,240 --> 00:20:43,840
But we haven't had any other 
bricks to write names on. 

434
00:20:44,000 --> 00:20:47,600
However, we are growing, 
expanding. 

435
00:20:47,600 --> 00:20:51,040
We need a more storage space. 
So I bought a massive 40 foot 

436
00:20:51,040 --> 00:20:53,440
shipping container. 
We painted it black. 

437
00:20:53,920 --> 00:20:55,600
Yeah, we're going to paint 
Savage across. 

438
00:20:55,600 --> 00:20:57,960
We haven't painted the Savage 
across it yet, but that's 

439
00:20:57,960 --> 00:20:59,240
coming. 
Right now it's just all blacked 

440
00:20:59,240 --> 00:21:02,760
out, but it looks pretty slick 
out there and I got to thinking 

441
00:21:02,760 --> 00:21:04,600
I'm like, OK, it's 2025 this 
year. 

442
00:21:05,080 --> 00:21:07,480
That's technically five years 
from the first one, so 

443
00:21:07,480 --> 00:21:12,400
2122232425 S. 
This is in theory our five year 

444
00:21:12,400 --> 00:21:14,840
anniversary of the Brick by 
Brick promo. 

445
00:21:15,400 --> 00:21:18,000
So now we've got more real 
estates for names. 

446
00:21:18,000 --> 00:21:21,480
So everybody that buys a brick 
during our promotional period 

447
00:21:21,480 --> 00:21:25,480
this year will get their names 
painted on the shipping 

448
00:21:25,480 --> 00:21:29,560
container and everybody that 
spends 250 bucks or more, not 

449
00:21:29,560 --> 00:21:32,560
counting taxes and shipping and 
whatnot, we're going to send 

450
00:21:32,560 --> 00:21:36,280
them a free Sprig by Brick 2025 
shirt. 

451
00:21:36,640 --> 00:21:39,760
So super stoked about that. 
We're going to have it start on.

452
00:21:39,760 --> 00:21:43,720
So this is going to go live on 
Friday the 1st and then we're 

453
00:21:43,720 --> 00:21:47,320
going to start that at noon 
Central on the third, the Sunday

454
00:21:47,320 --> 00:21:52,480
the 3rd, and then it will run 
until 11:59 PM on Sunday the 

455
00:21:52,480 --> 00:21:57,040
10th. 
So during that time span, 15% 

456
00:21:57,040 --> 00:22:02,440
off everything at ketobrick.com 
and then if you spend 250 or 

457
00:22:02,440 --> 00:22:06,080
more, you get a free brick by 
brick shirt, which I'm stoked 

458
00:22:06,080 --> 00:22:07,480
about. 
Super noteworthy. 

459
00:22:07,480 --> 00:22:10,520
And your name on the container. 
Yeah, super noteworthy is that 

460
00:22:10,520 --> 00:22:15,280
15% off stacks on top of those 
volume discounts. 

461
00:22:15,280 --> 00:22:17,400
So this is where we see a lot of
people take advantage of the 

462
00:22:17,400 --> 00:22:21,760
volume discounts and order 24 
bricks or more because on top of

463
00:22:21,760 --> 00:22:25,480
that 20% off, you get 15% off 
also. 

464
00:22:25,800 --> 00:22:26,960
Yeah. 
So it's pretty significant. 

465
00:22:26,960 --> 00:22:28,960
Saving. 
Yeah, this is this is the time 

466
00:22:29,040 --> 00:22:30,200
to stockpile. 
Yeah. 

467
00:22:30,720 --> 00:22:34,080
And this is kind of like, I 
mean, it's August hot month of 

468
00:22:34,080 --> 00:22:35,400
the year. 
That may be technically the 

469
00:22:35,400 --> 00:22:38,680
hottest month of the year in 
August or in in Arkansas rather.

470
00:22:40,120 --> 00:22:42,240
So I mean like you're probably 
going to get melted bricks, but 

471
00:22:42,240 --> 00:22:44,760
our new packaging is legit. 
I don't think we've had any 

472
00:22:44,760 --> 00:22:49,400
issues with the packaging like 
before, like these. 

473
00:22:50,200 --> 00:22:53,320
Yeah, we've. 
Been We've been melting bricks 

474
00:22:53,320 --> 00:22:55,960
on purpose, we've been squeezing
them, stepping on them. 

475
00:22:56,000 --> 00:22:59,640
I got a primal fudge brick the 
other day, and then I sat it on 

476
00:22:59,640 --> 00:23:02,920
top of my grill on my back porch
and let it, and I forgot about 

477
00:23:02,920 --> 00:23:03,840
it. 
Like it was out there for two 

478
00:23:03,840 --> 00:23:05,560
days. 
So like, it was totally lifted. 

479
00:23:06,320 --> 00:23:08,320
Yeah. 
I mean, it was sitting in 95° 

480
00:23:08,320 --> 00:23:11,840
the whole time, totally liquid. 
And that's one of our softer 

481
00:23:11,840 --> 00:23:13,840
tallows. 
So I'm like, it's, it's no, no 

482
00:23:13,840 --> 00:23:16,200
chance it's going to be sold. 
So 100% liquid. 

483
00:23:16,200 --> 00:23:18,360
I shook it around. 
I, like, mimicked it being in a 

484
00:23:18,600 --> 00:23:21,200
carrier truck. 
And then I put it in the fridge.

485
00:23:22,000 --> 00:23:25,280
And then I had it on the way to 
the show Saturday morning. 

486
00:23:25,640 --> 00:23:27,480
Delicious. 
Tastes totally fine. 

487
00:23:27,800 --> 00:23:29,920
Yeah. 
So doesn't look like a brick as 

488
00:23:29,920 --> 00:23:32,200
much. 
Little flatter, but honestly 

489
00:23:32,200 --> 00:23:33,360
it's kind of easier to eat that 
way. 

490
00:23:33,400 --> 00:23:35,640
Oh sure, like it's you don't 
have to open your mouth is nice 

491
00:23:35,640 --> 00:23:36,760
thinner. 
Like a bark. 

492
00:23:37,000 --> 00:23:39,680
Yeah, maybe not that, not that. 
I mean, it's probably about that

493
00:23:39,680 --> 00:23:44,040
thick instead of that thick, so.
See when I when I get one that's

494
00:23:44,040 --> 00:23:46,120
next time I get one that's 
melted, I want to just cut the 

495
00:23:46,120 --> 00:23:48,240
corner of the packaging and 
just. 

496
00:23:49,560 --> 00:23:50,400
Eat it as it's. 
Melted. 

497
00:23:50,400 --> 00:23:51,000
Yeah. 
Yeah. 

498
00:23:51,480 --> 00:23:53,480
But if you stick it in the 
fridge, I mean 100%, totally 

499
00:23:53,480 --> 00:23:57,400
fine. 
So yeah, be aware of that. 

500
00:23:57,400 --> 00:24:00,600
Anybody that buys during the 
promo period, yes, it is going 

501
00:24:00,600 --> 00:24:03,160
to be toasty, but the bricks are
solid. 

502
00:24:03,560 --> 00:24:05,840
They're not solid, but the 
packaging, the packaging is 

503
00:24:05,840 --> 00:24:08,960
solid, so the outcome is solid. 
And the taste is fine, the 

504
00:24:08,960 --> 00:24:10,440
nutrition is fine, nothing 
changes. 

505
00:24:10,600 --> 00:24:12,480
Yeah, 100%. 
So that's cool. 

506
00:24:12,480 --> 00:24:15,640
I'm excited about that. 
What else we got cooking, man 

507
00:24:15,640 --> 00:24:16,480
you. 
Know what I did on Friday? 

508
00:24:16,480 --> 00:24:17,360
What? 
Did you do on Friday? 

509
00:24:17,360 --> 00:24:20,040
I had a guided stretching 
session. 

510
00:24:20,160 --> 00:24:24,840
Oh yeah, so. 
OK, so it all kind of started 

511
00:24:24,840 --> 00:24:28,400
because I was inundated with 
these Facebook ads. 

512
00:24:28,600 --> 00:24:30,160
And you've been inundated with 
injuries. 

513
00:24:30,600 --> 00:24:34,320
Yeah, I tweaked my back and my 
lower back whatever day that was

514
00:24:34,320 --> 00:24:37,440
a couple weeks ago, and it's 
been just kind of nagging at me.

515
00:24:37,440 --> 00:24:40,440
So I've been taking it easy and 
I thought, OK, this maybe this 

516
00:24:40,440 --> 00:24:42,040
is a sign. 
Anyways, I was seeing these ads 

517
00:24:42,040 --> 00:24:45,520
in this stretch zone in 
Fayetteville and I kept seeing 

518
00:24:45,520 --> 00:24:47,160
these ads, seeing these ads, 
seeing these ads, and I'm like, 

519
00:24:47,160 --> 00:24:49,680
OK, I'm just going to sign up 
because it was like sign up for 

520
00:24:49,680 --> 00:24:52,000
your free console, free stretch,
yadda, yadda, yadda. 

521
00:24:52,040 --> 00:24:54,880
So I filled it out and they 
started, they called me, texted 

522
00:24:54,880 --> 00:24:56,480
me, hey, we got your 
information. 

523
00:24:56,480 --> 00:24:58,440
We want to get you in for your 
free consultation or your free 

524
00:24:58,440 --> 00:24:59,800
stretch session. 
And I'm like, OK, they're going 

525
00:24:59,800 --> 00:25:02,480
to try to sell me something. 
Obviously, you know, but maybe 

526
00:25:02,480 --> 00:25:03,960
this is beneficial. 
Maybe this is something that I 

527
00:25:03,960 --> 00:25:07,360
can add into myself. 
Care routine because they get 

528
00:25:07,360 --> 00:25:11,400
regular massages, which I should
do more of my own stretching, 

529
00:25:11,400 --> 00:25:15,480
but I can add in someone helping
me stretch beyond my capability.

530
00:25:15,880 --> 00:25:18,720
Let's do it. 
So I went there on Friday and 

531
00:25:18,720 --> 00:25:20,440
super cool dude, super cool 
girl. 

532
00:25:20,880 --> 00:25:22,800
They were in there. 
They were working with one other

533
00:25:22,800 --> 00:25:24,440
client at the time. 
So I sat down and had a chance 

534
00:25:24,440 --> 00:25:26,480
to just chat with this guy, 
younger guy. 

535
00:25:26,760 --> 00:25:28,840
He's telling me what they do, 
what they look for, what kind of

536
00:25:28,840 --> 00:25:32,400
stuff you know, to expect. 
And it was better than I would 

537
00:25:32,400 --> 00:25:34,960
have anticipated. 
They've got a bunch of tables in

538
00:25:34,960 --> 00:25:36,120
there. 
And where's that in the? 

539
00:25:36,160 --> 00:25:39,640
Table, it's right over by. 
It's in that little shopping 

540
00:25:39,640 --> 00:25:42,120
district, you know, where like 
the buckle in all that kind of 

541
00:25:42,120 --> 00:25:43,280
stuff is. 
There's a big Walmart over 

542
00:25:43,280 --> 00:25:45,200
there. 
Like Home Depot, like right 

543
00:25:45,200 --> 00:25:47,080
there on Joy. 
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. 

544
00:25:47,280 --> 00:25:49,680
There's like that's where Bryson
and I get pho. 

545
00:25:49,960 --> 00:25:51,080
When we get pho. 
Pho. 

546
00:25:51,680 --> 00:25:52,720
Yeah. 
Like the Vietnamese. 

547
00:25:52,840 --> 00:25:54,440
OK Yeah. 
I don't get the news. 

548
00:25:54,440 --> 00:25:56,600
Yeah, somewhere it's like, you 
know, like Target is tucked in 

549
00:25:56,600 --> 00:25:58,160
over there. 
All that all that stuff's over 

550
00:25:58,880 --> 00:25:59,720
there. 
So I went in there and they've 

551
00:25:59,720 --> 00:26:02,760
got a bunch of like big, they're
they're like oversized massage 

552
00:26:02,760 --> 00:26:05,880
beds or tables, whatever, but 
they've got a bunch of straps 

553
00:26:05,880 --> 00:26:08,800
and stuff connected to them. 
So she had me lay down and she's

554
00:26:08,800 --> 00:26:10,720
like, OK, we're going to just do
a little bit of an assessment. 

555
00:26:11,040 --> 00:26:14,320
We use a scale called the 357. 
So if something is just starting

556
00:26:14,320 --> 00:26:16,280
to feel like it's stretching, 
that's going to be a three. 

557
00:26:16,280 --> 00:26:19,000
If it's starting to kind of 
moderately pull, you're at A5 

558
00:26:19,000 --> 00:26:21,400
and if you're getting up to the 
seven, it's maybe borderline 

559
00:26:21,400 --> 00:26:23,800
discomfort, but we don't want to
push discomfort. 

560
00:26:23,800 --> 00:26:25,800
So they never really 
overstretched me, which is cool.

561
00:26:25,880 --> 00:26:28,200
It's safe. 
She's like, so we're going to do

562
00:26:28,200 --> 00:26:30,680
this, this, this, We ran through
some upper body, lower body and 

563
00:26:30,680 --> 00:26:33,440
we're going to just see where 
you might need some work. 

564
00:26:33,440 --> 00:26:36,200
So this is kind of just an 
initial assessment and she's 

565
00:26:36,200 --> 00:26:39,840
like, yeah, your left side is 
like terrible compared to your 

566
00:26:39,840 --> 00:26:42,200
right side. 
And certain stretches and 

567
00:26:42,200 --> 00:26:43,880
certain moves and body 
positions. 

568
00:26:43,880 --> 00:26:46,720
She's like really ideally if 
you're well stretched, we should

569
00:26:46,720 --> 00:26:51,000
be able to get into like a 90° 
format or 90° stance or 

570
00:26:51,000 --> 00:26:53,240
whatever. 
And some of mine were not even 

571
00:26:53,240 --> 00:26:55,880
hitting like 50°. 
So she's like, you definitely 

572
00:26:55,880 --> 00:26:59,640
need some work. 
So I they, they can pinpoint 

573
00:26:59,640 --> 00:27:03,720
certain areas, like if you have 
areas that need more attention, 

574
00:27:04,040 --> 00:27:06,600
you can go in there and just 
say, OK, I need this part of me 

575
00:27:06,600 --> 00:27:09,600
stretched out. 
Or you can be just like a 

576
00:27:10,080 --> 00:27:12,400
regular, like a regular 
stretching. 

577
00:27:12,400 --> 00:27:15,160
Like you, you're supposed to do 
your own, your own stretching. 

578
00:27:15,160 --> 00:27:18,360
But these guided stretches will 
be like a supplemental thing to 

579
00:27:18,360 --> 00:27:20,320
that. 
And some people come in and they

580
00:27:20,320 --> 00:27:23,240
just do a full body stretch and 
they do a 30 minute or a 60 

581
00:27:23,240 --> 00:27:25,520
minute stretch. 
You can come in every week, 

582
00:27:25,520 --> 00:27:27,320
every two weeks, kind of 
whatever you want to do. 

583
00:27:27,840 --> 00:27:30,640
And it's really, really neat 
because depending on what she's 

584
00:27:30,640 --> 00:27:33,640
stretching or they're 
stretching, they will strap you 

585
00:27:33,640 --> 00:27:35,200
to the table. 
And then they'll use other 

586
00:27:35,200 --> 00:27:40,160
straps to pull your legs, arms, 
shoulders, whatever they need to

587
00:27:40,160 --> 00:27:42,160
pull. 
And they'll get you to where, 

588
00:27:42,600 --> 00:27:45,080
you know, they want to see where
you're at a 3A5 and A7 and 

589
00:27:45,080 --> 00:27:47,760
they'll just hold it for you. 
And it's like these. 

590
00:27:48,000 --> 00:27:50,360
How long are you holding? 
Just a few seconds. 

591
00:27:50,400 --> 00:27:52,080
So it's all like static 
stretching. 

592
00:27:52,160 --> 00:27:54,160
It's. 
Yeah, there's, there's no like 

593
00:27:54,160 --> 00:27:56,040
bouncing, there's no dynamic 
stretching. 

594
00:27:56,040 --> 00:27:59,920
It's all like just a very brief 
pause in the stretch position. 

595
00:27:59,920 --> 00:28:02,880
So it's more static stretching. 
It was awesome. 

596
00:28:03,040 --> 00:28:05,960
I felt great, like my low back 
was good. 

597
00:28:06,000 --> 00:28:10,160
My like she found tight. 
I knew that my left glute was 

598
00:28:10,160 --> 00:28:12,160
pretty tight 'cause it's all 
kind of tied into my low back, 

599
00:28:12,520 --> 00:28:14,880
but my left glute felt good 
coming out of there. 

600
00:28:14,880 --> 00:28:17,160
She stretched out my hammies, 
they stretched out my calves. 

601
00:28:17,160 --> 00:28:20,000
My I've got a kind of a impinged
shoulder going on. 

602
00:28:20,000 --> 00:28:22,160
She's like, yeah, we can work on
all that kind of stuff. 

603
00:28:22,160 --> 00:28:25,520
So it was good. 
It was a good positive first 

604
00:28:25,520 --> 00:28:27,480
experience. 
I would definitely do it again. 

605
00:28:27,920 --> 00:28:29,880
What do they charge? 
I know you got like their free 

606
00:28:29,880 --> 00:28:32,280
promo introductory thing but 
like what do they charge for a 

607
00:28:32,280 --> 00:28:34,000
session? 
You can, yeah. 

608
00:28:34,000 --> 00:28:36,000
There's a couple different ways 
that you can kind of set that up

609
00:28:36,000 --> 00:28:38,080
if you decide you're going to go
there on a recurring basis. 

610
00:28:38,080 --> 00:28:42,880
If you get a single stand alone 
stretch they have them priced at

611
00:28:42,880 --> 00:28:45,480
$85 but. 
And how long is that session? 

612
00:28:45,480 --> 00:28:49,000
That's like 30 minutes and he 
said, but we don't charge 

613
00:28:49,000 --> 00:28:51,000
anybody to that. 
If you buy more than one, it's 

614
00:28:51,000 --> 00:28:52,520
like 55 a session. 
Nice. 

615
00:28:53,360 --> 00:28:56,520
You can also sign up for like a 
subscription or like a monthly 

616
00:28:56,520 --> 00:29:00,040
recurring cost where you pay X 
number of dollars per month and 

617
00:29:00,240 --> 00:29:03,760
that allocates you X number of 
sessions per month. 

618
00:29:04,240 --> 00:29:06,640
And the more that you get, the 
more the bigger the bucket of 

619
00:29:06,640 --> 00:29:10,080
sessions you buy per month, the 
cheaper they are per session, 

620
00:29:10,720 --> 00:29:12,240
which is cool because I was 
going to talk to you about that.

621
00:29:12,240 --> 00:29:14,400
And maybe you want to go get 
like a consultation and just 

622
00:29:14,400 --> 00:29:15,840
kind of check it out and see if 
it might be something you're 

623
00:29:15,840 --> 00:29:17,040
interested in. 
Because they said you can 

624
00:29:17,040 --> 00:29:19,160
actually share that bucket of 
sessions with somebody. 

625
00:29:19,840 --> 00:29:23,600
And then if you pre buy a bunch 
of them or sign up for something

626
00:29:23,600 --> 00:29:25,600
monthly you can kind of share. 
Can we get stretched 

627
00:29:25,600 --> 00:29:28,000
simultaneously, kind of like 
couples massages? 

628
00:29:28,680 --> 00:29:30,160
Slide the beds up next to each 
other. 

629
00:29:30,160 --> 00:29:31,000
Yeah. 
Hold hands. 

630
00:29:31,000 --> 00:29:33,280
Yeah, whatever. 
But yeah, it was cool. 

631
00:29:33,480 --> 00:29:35,520
It was super cool, so. 
Well, I am I. 

632
00:29:35,720 --> 00:29:38,800
Might add that into my. 
Yeah, I'll totally do it 'cause 

633
00:29:38,800 --> 00:29:42,160
I, I'm not very good at 
stretching ever. 

634
00:29:42,200 --> 00:29:45,280
Like I don't ever stretch. 
I just go to the gym and RIP the

635
00:29:45,320 --> 00:29:47,000
same. 
I don't stretch before I go for 

636
00:29:47,000 --> 00:29:48,360
a run. 
I just go. 

637
00:29:49,200 --> 00:29:52,480
The best stretching routine I 
ever did was when I was trying 

638
00:29:52,480 --> 00:29:55,800
to do some knee rehabilitation. 
I was doing that knees over toes

639
00:29:55,800 --> 00:29:59,520
stuff and it was like 5 minutes 
before I started working out and

640
00:29:59,520 --> 00:30:02,240
I've still done a few that, but 
like that was the only time I 

641
00:30:02,240 --> 00:30:04,480
stretched when Chip and I were 
working out together. 

642
00:30:04,480 --> 00:30:06,920
We did quite a bit of that 
before we started working out. 

643
00:30:08,680 --> 00:30:10,200
So I need to do that. 
But if I could like go 

644
00:30:10,200 --> 00:30:12,680
someplace, you know, once a 
month or whatever I need to do, 

645
00:30:12,680 --> 00:30:14,800
but all right, just stretch me 
good. 

646
00:30:15,240 --> 00:30:19,080
And then I'll try and do some 
proactive upkeep on throughout 

647
00:30:19,080 --> 00:30:21,600
the month would be advantageous.
Yeah, 'cause they can, they can 

648
00:30:21,600 --> 00:30:27,960
stretch you with way more focus 
than what we can do on our own. 

649
00:30:27,960 --> 00:30:30,840
Because, I mean, they're 
strapping you in so you're, you 

650
00:30:30,840 --> 00:30:33,280
can be fully relaxed from head 
to toe. 

651
00:30:33,280 --> 00:30:35,680
And when you're trying to 
stretch yourself out, you can't 

652
00:30:35,680 --> 00:30:38,680
achieve that. 
So yeah, I feel like I don't 

653
00:30:38,680 --> 00:30:40,960
know, I need to do more of that.
I haven't really been doing any 

654
00:30:40,960 --> 00:30:44,160
proactive self-care 'cause like 
I was doing a massage on a 

655
00:30:44,160 --> 00:30:48,560
regular basis, but then our 
masseuse got pregnant so she was

656
00:30:48,560 --> 00:30:50,120
out of Commission. 
There's other masseuses. 

657
00:30:50,400 --> 00:30:53,760
I know I I just, I really liked 
her, so I hadn't found another 

658
00:30:53,760 --> 00:30:57,440
massage therapist. 
They're really stretching. 

659
00:30:57,960 --> 00:30:59,920
Yeah, I seem to feel better 
about that, for sure. 

660
00:30:59,920 --> 00:31:02,440
I don't ever go to the 
chiropractor, but I probably 

661
00:31:02,440 --> 00:31:03,920
should, you know, like all that 
stuff. 

662
00:31:05,400 --> 00:31:07,960
So yeah, I need to do that. 
All right, Knock. 

663
00:31:07,960 --> 00:31:09,960
On wood. 
Yeah, knock on wood, I think 

664
00:31:09,960 --> 00:31:11,240
you. 
You had said you were going to 

665
00:31:11,560 --> 00:31:15,360
mention something about mindset.
Yeah, so I started reading a new

666
00:31:15,360 --> 00:31:18,440
book. 
You know who Cameron Haynes is? 

667
00:31:18,960 --> 00:31:20,920
Yeah. 
So the Super impressive bow 

668
00:31:20,920 --> 00:31:23,560
hunter that also like runs a 
marathon every single day, does 

669
00:31:23,560 --> 00:31:24,600
he? 
Have an apparel line? 

670
00:31:25,280 --> 00:31:27,440
Well, he partnered, he was 
sponsored by Under Armour for 

671
00:31:27,440 --> 00:31:30,440
quite some time. 
He's not anymore, but he was 

672
00:31:30,440 --> 00:31:32,280
with them for like 17 years or 
something crazy. 

673
00:31:32,280 --> 00:31:36,840
So like he was the face of Under
Armour's hunt collection when 

674
00:31:36,880 --> 00:31:39,160
Under Armour got into doing 
hunting apparel. 

675
00:31:40,320 --> 00:31:42,480
But he's been like a bow hunter 
for eons. 

676
00:31:42,480 --> 00:31:44,960
He got a really cool story. 
Like he started out, you know, 

677
00:31:44,960 --> 00:31:47,800
drinking too much. 
His parents split when he was 

678
00:31:47,800 --> 00:31:51,720
young and he could have gone, 
you know, one or two ways in his

679
00:31:51,720 --> 00:31:54,000
earlier life. 
And then he decided to just 

680
00:31:54,200 --> 00:31:56,800
double down on what made him 
better, which I can totally 

681
00:31:56,800 --> 00:31:58,160
appreciate it resonate with that
story. 

682
00:31:58,160 --> 00:32:02,800
But super impressive guy. 
But he's got a podcast now too. 

683
00:32:02,800 --> 00:32:04,760
It's called Cameron Hands 
Collective and he'll bring 

684
00:32:04,760 --> 00:32:07,240
people on like he's brought 
Goggins on all kinds of people. 

685
00:32:08,200 --> 00:32:15,440
And his whole, you know, saying 
or slogan or everything is he's 

686
00:32:15,440 --> 00:32:17,280
got a few of them. 
But like nobody cares. 

687
00:32:17,320 --> 00:32:20,360
Work harder, which I like that. 
See, that's what I'm isn't 

688
00:32:20,360 --> 00:32:21,240
there? 
Like shirts, I'd say. 

689
00:32:21,240 --> 00:32:23,840
That so he he's got now that 
he's like blown up, he's got his

690
00:32:23,840 --> 00:32:25,920
own like little brand as. 
Well, with. 

691
00:32:25,960 --> 00:32:28,760
Slogans on that, but he was 
definitely part of Under Armour 

692
00:32:28,760 --> 00:32:31,520
for quite some time. 
But like nobody cares. 

693
00:32:31,520 --> 00:32:35,720
Work harder and like I like that
kind of like blue collar, you 

694
00:32:35,720 --> 00:32:39,240
know, blood and guts mentality 
of like just putting in the work

695
00:32:39,280 --> 00:32:40,680
like that's my superpower as a 
human. 

696
00:32:40,680 --> 00:32:42,520
That's why like natural 
bodybuilding appeals to me. 

697
00:32:42,520 --> 00:32:46,360
It's like grind every single day
without any expectation, just 

698
00:32:46,360 --> 00:32:51,600
commit to it and then always 
take one step forward and he's 

699
00:32:51,600 --> 00:32:52,880
always preaching that kind of 
messaging. 

700
00:32:52,880 --> 00:32:56,480
So he's got that. 
He's got his steps to success, 

701
00:32:56,480 --> 00:32:59,160
which is basically just like 
lift, run, shoot. 

702
00:32:59,160 --> 00:33:04,160
Every single day he lifts, he 
runs and he shoots his bow. 

703
00:33:04,280 --> 00:33:07,640
So like, he wants to be, he 
wants to be an athlete so he can

704
00:33:07,640 --> 00:33:11,920
perform in the mountains going 
after elk for two weeks straight

705
00:33:12,120 --> 00:33:15,040
and tough terrain. 
And having gone elk hunting a 

706
00:33:15,040 --> 00:33:17,160
few Times Now, like, you got to 
be in pretty good shape if you 

707
00:33:17,160 --> 00:33:20,000
get in the mountains and, you 
know, hoofing it at elevation. 

708
00:33:21,040 --> 00:33:24,960
But I'm listening to his book 
and it's, I don't know, man. 

709
00:33:24,960 --> 00:33:28,080
It's just got me fired up 
because it's like, there are 

710
00:33:28,080 --> 00:33:32,040
times in life where I think 
we're all guilty of this. 

711
00:33:32,040 --> 00:33:34,320
But like we have these 
expectations or we have these 

712
00:33:34,320 --> 00:33:37,240
desires or like we have like 
these little pity parties of 

713
00:33:37,240 --> 00:33:40,640
like I've been doing this for so
long, I should be here and I'm 

714
00:33:40,640 --> 00:33:42,560
not there yet or whatever the 
case might be. 

715
00:33:42,640 --> 00:33:44,760
And people have it like I should
have more followers on social 

716
00:33:44,760 --> 00:33:46,520
media than I do. 
I should have more money in the 

717
00:33:46,520 --> 00:33:50,000
bank account than I do. 
I should have more, you know, I 

718
00:33:50,000 --> 00:33:51,480
should have, I should be leaner 
than I am. 

719
00:33:51,480 --> 00:33:52,600
I should have more muscle than I
do. 

720
00:33:52,600 --> 00:33:56,600
Like all these things. 
And we have this like finish 

721
00:33:56,600 --> 00:33:59,040
line mentality of like, you 
know, I'm going to get to this 

722
00:33:59,040 --> 00:34:01,080
point and it's all going to be 
good. 

723
00:34:01,080 --> 00:34:02,600
It's all going to be Gucci at 
that point. 

724
00:34:03,680 --> 00:34:05,080
And like that gets people in 
trouble. 

725
00:34:05,080 --> 00:34:07,880
That's why, like competitors 
post show they binge and then 

726
00:34:07,960 --> 00:34:11,480
they're like way worse off than 
when they started and negative 

727
00:34:11,480 --> 00:34:13,760
feedback loop with food that 
plagues them for years. 

728
00:34:14,120 --> 00:34:17,400
But like having this finish line
mentality, I don't think it's 

729
00:34:17,400 --> 00:34:19,760
good. 
Like the race is never over. 

730
00:34:19,800 --> 00:34:22,239
The line is never crossed until 
you die. 

731
00:34:22,239 --> 00:34:25,440
Like you got to always be making
progress because there's no such

732
00:34:25,440 --> 00:34:27,199
thing as maintenance. 
You're either getting better or 

733
00:34:27,199 --> 00:34:30,840
you're getting worse period. 
And he's done a really good job 

734
00:34:30,840 --> 00:34:35,199
of just like, you know, hitting 
that message home and like, it 

735
00:34:35,199 --> 00:34:37,920
resonates with everything that I
do and am doing because like, 

736
00:34:37,920 --> 00:34:40,760
I've never had like this viral 
breakout moment, like the 

737
00:34:40,760 --> 00:34:43,400
businesses have never, you know,
hockey stick. 

738
00:34:43,400 --> 00:34:46,679
That's just been like slow, 
steady, gradual climb. 

739
00:34:47,159 --> 00:34:49,679
And, you know, I've got a lot of
variables coming in. 

740
00:34:49,679 --> 00:34:52,400
I got two kids now. 
I work all the time. 

741
00:34:52,400 --> 00:34:54,639
I, you know, wish I had more 
time with my family. 

742
00:34:55,760 --> 00:34:57,840
I wish I wasn't as stressed as I
was. 

743
00:34:57,840 --> 00:35:01,600
But then it's like, if you have 
this expectation that it 

744
00:35:01,600 --> 00:35:04,800
shouldn't be that way, if it's 
not, you get frustrated. 

745
00:35:05,400 --> 00:35:07,600
But if you like just simply 
shift your perspective and be 

746
00:35:07,600 --> 00:35:10,480
like, look, this is just life. 
Like there is no finish line. 

747
00:35:10,480 --> 00:35:12,640
There's never going to be this 
aha moment where you can just 

748
00:35:12,760 --> 00:35:14,880
kick your feet up and relax, 
watch Netflix all day. 

749
00:35:14,880 --> 00:35:16,440
Wouldn't want to do that 
anyways. 

750
00:35:16,840 --> 00:35:18,840
So it's like, screw it, this is 
just life. 

751
00:35:19,160 --> 00:35:22,000
Learn to embrace it for what it 
is and freaking enjoy the 

752
00:35:22,000 --> 00:35:24,800
journey and never have this 
finish line mentality. 

753
00:35:25,240 --> 00:35:28,480
So that's all just been kind of 
on my mind. 

754
00:35:29,200 --> 00:35:32,560
And then I was thinking, you 
know, like you're analytical, 

755
00:35:32,560 --> 00:35:35,320
I'm analytical and I want to be 
the very best natural 

756
00:35:35,320 --> 00:35:37,280
bodybuilder that I can be from a
ketogenic standpoint. 

757
00:35:37,280 --> 00:35:39,240
Like I want to, you know, I'm 
going to redefine what's 

758
00:35:39,240 --> 00:35:44,640
possible with that. 
And you know, I, we got 2026 

759
00:35:44,640 --> 00:35:46,560
next year being like our 
building phase. 

760
00:35:46,760 --> 00:35:49,000
And then you and I are both 
planning on competing in 27. 

761
00:35:49,640 --> 00:35:51,680
And it's easy to get caught up 
in your head. 

762
00:35:51,680 --> 00:35:56,040
It's like, OK, what, what can I 
do to be like, what, what 

763
00:35:56,040 --> 00:35:59,560
markers am I going to use as a 
proxy for progress in this build

764
00:35:59,560 --> 00:36:00,720
phase? 
Like I'm going to base it off 

765
00:36:00,720 --> 00:36:03,040
of, you know, lean mass on a 
DEXA scan. 

766
00:36:03,040 --> 00:36:06,000
Am I going to base it off of, 
you know, more weight on the 

767
00:36:06,000 --> 00:36:07,240
scale? 
Cause some of that's going to be

768
00:36:07,240 --> 00:36:08,520
muscle. 
Am I going to base it off how 

769
00:36:08,520 --> 00:36:10,800
many times I can hit 405 on 
squat? 

770
00:36:10,800 --> 00:36:12,280
Like what am I going to use as 
my proxy? 

771
00:36:13,040 --> 00:36:18,000
And I have all these things that
are seemingly competing against 

772
00:36:18,000 --> 00:36:19,600
one another. 
Like I'm doing the 50 mile March

773
00:36:19,600 --> 00:36:23,240
in August, You know, like the 
best endurance athletes probably

774
00:36:23,240 --> 00:36:26,880
going to be not the best 
physique athlete because they 

775
00:36:26,880 --> 00:36:29,280
kind of compete for one another.
But I don't want to shirk my 

776
00:36:29,280 --> 00:36:32,080
responsibility in being able to 
perform from the Durant 

777
00:36:32,080 --> 00:36:35,160
standpoint either. 
So it's like I'm just going to 

778
00:36:35,160 --> 00:36:37,760
be the best version of myself 
all around. 

779
00:36:37,760 --> 00:36:43,360
Like I want 2026 starting now, 
going forward to just be like, 

780
00:36:43,880 --> 00:36:46,280
let me get in the best shape of 
my life. 

781
00:36:47,080 --> 00:36:50,680
And then when I do that, by 
default, all my performance 

782
00:36:50,680 --> 00:36:53,640
metrics are going to improve. 
If my performance metrics are 

783
00:36:53,640 --> 00:36:55,360
improving, I'm building more 
lean muscle. 

784
00:36:55,920 --> 00:36:58,320
I can be more fit as a human 
being, which is going to make me

785
00:36:58,320 --> 00:37:01,360
more capable as a father. 
And then I'm going to have a 

786
00:37:01,360 --> 00:37:04,960
better prep in 2027 because I'm 
going to be better and more fit 

787
00:37:04,960 --> 00:37:07,800
going into 2027. 
So like, rather than fixating 

788
00:37:07,800 --> 00:37:11,480
on, you know, how much lean mass
I need to build or what my, you 

789
00:37:11,480 --> 00:37:14,480
know, PRS need to be, I'm just 
going to freaking kill it with 

790
00:37:14,480 --> 00:37:16,960
everything. 
And I went for a run this 

791
00:37:16,960 --> 00:37:20,400
morning before I worked out, 
which by the rule book doesn't 

792
00:37:20,400 --> 00:37:22,400
make any sense. 
Like you want to, you know, 

793
00:37:22,400 --> 00:37:25,920
train first, not deplete any 
muscle, then do your cardio 

794
00:37:25,920 --> 00:37:29,080
afterwards if possible. 
But I went for like a trail run 

795
00:37:29,080 --> 00:37:33,720
this morning, saw the sunrise in
Lincoln Lake, ran back, felt 

796
00:37:33,720 --> 00:37:38,200
great, had a killer workout, 
went up to 415 for squats with 

797
00:37:38,200 --> 00:37:40,400
safety bar, did 9 reps of that, 
felt great. 

798
00:37:40,800 --> 00:37:43,280
And you know, like I'm just 
going to kill it, man. 

799
00:37:43,280 --> 00:37:44,440
I'm just going to kill it and 
everything. 

800
00:37:44,440 --> 00:37:46,640
I'm going to have like these 
things that I do every single 

801
00:37:46,640 --> 00:37:49,960
day without fail. 
Like it doesn't make sense to 

802
00:37:49,960 --> 00:37:53,920
train seven days a week, but 
screw it, why not? 

803
00:37:54,440 --> 00:37:56,120
I mean, maybe I would just train
seven days a week. 

804
00:37:56,200 --> 00:37:58,600
Like, I just want to keep the 
momentum going in a positive 

805
00:37:58,600 --> 00:38:01,440
way. 
So that's what I'm going to do. 

806
00:38:01,440 --> 00:38:02,560
You're. 
Just going to overkill. 

807
00:38:02,720 --> 00:38:06,640
Yeah, I feel like overtraining 
is relatively hard to do though,

808
00:38:06,640 --> 00:38:11,560
if you get enough rest and you 
eat enough food and the body 

809
00:38:11,880 --> 00:38:13,520
adapts to whatever stressors 
you. 

810
00:38:13,520 --> 00:38:16,800
Suggest to that's true. 
So I just need to like level up 

811
00:38:16,800 --> 00:38:20,560
my baseline, like level up what 
my body thinks is normal. 

812
00:38:21,000 --> 00:38:24,880
If my body thinks training five 
days a week and doing 1 cardio 

813
00:38:24,880 --> 00:38:27,000
session is normal, it's going to
acclimate to that. 

814
00:38:27,000 --> 00:38:29,280
If my body thinks that running 
seven days a week and training 

815
00:38:29,280 --> 00:38:33,360
seven days a week and, you know,
killing it is normal, then it's 

816
00:38:33,360 --> 00:38:36,440
going to level up to that. 
So that's kind of where I'm at 

817
00:38:36,440 --> 00:38:39,960
right now. 
But yeah, it's just been on my. 

818
00:38:39,960 --> 00:38:40,960
Mind. 
OK, I have an idea then. 

819
00:38:41,600 --> 00:38:49,160
How about in 2026 we pick like a
mud run, like a 10K Tough mud or

820
00:38:49,160 --> 00:38:50,760
something like that Spartan 
Race. 

821
00:38:50,760 --> 00:38:52,280
You know the 50 mile March would
be next year too. 

822
00:38:52,480 --> 00:38:55,160
Maybe you should do it, man. 
Maybe you should do it, yeah. 

823
00:38:55,400 --> 00:38:57,960
I'm all about pushing the limits
too. 

824
00:38:58,040 --> 00:39:01,280
Yeah, we should 26. 
Maybe we can get a group of 

825
00:39:01,280 --> 00:39:03,520
people that. 
Want yeah man 100% like we need.

826
00:39:04,160 --> 00:39:06,560
I want to suffer. 
Well, I don't want to. 

827
00:39:06,560 --> 00:39:08,240
I mean, I want to. 
I want to challenge myself. 

828
00:39:08,240 --> 00:39:09,960
I don't want to suffer, but I 
want you know. 

829
00:39:10,080 --> 00:39:11,120
I want to be in. 
Hard. 

830
00:39:11,120 --> 00:39:12,320
I don't want to be. 
Easy. 

831
00:39:12,880 --> 00:39:18,000
But I want to. 
I want to be able to know that I

832
00:39:18,000 --> 00:39:20,640
had to work for, you know? 
Do hard things. 

833
00:39:20,720 --> 00:39:23,840
Do hard things, but like listen 
to his book going through my 

834
00:39:23,840 --> 00:39:26,040
life. 
Like there's so many cool ideas 

835
00:39:26,040 --> 00:39:27,720
and slogans that I'm going to 
put on shirts, man. 

836
00:39:27,720 --> 00:39:29,760
Like I've got so many ideas in 
my head right now of like when 

837
00:39:29,760 --> 00:39:32,760
we when we roll out the apparel 
line, there's going to be like 

838
00:39:32,760 --> 00:39:36,480
cool, meaningful things that are
on the shirts that I'm wearing. 

839
00:39:36,480 --> 00:39:39,600
That's all I'm going to wear. 
So like if I'm not feeling it 

840
00:39:39,600 --> 00:39:43,560
that day, but then I look down 
and my shirt says, you know. 

841
00:39:44,320 --> 00:39:49,400
Embrace the suck. 
Embrace the suck STFSTFUSTFU 

842
00:39:49,400 --> 00:39:51,760
work. 
Like I'm going to go put in some

843
00:39:51,760 --> 00:39:56,080
freaking work, you know? 
But there's things that like I 

844
00:39:56,080 --> 00:39:58,880
like the whole lift run shoot 
moniker because it's like every 

845
00:39:58,880 --> 00:40:00,960
single day without fail do these
things. 

846
00:40:00,960 --> 00:40:03,240
And I've been on a kick with 
like push ups and pull ups. 

847
00:40:03,240 --> 00:40:05,800
So like, I've committed to doing
push ups every single day. 

848
00:40:06,440 --> 00:40:07,760
Although you'll make fun of my 
push ups. 

849
00:40:08,680 --> 00:40:11,400
I've been doing pull ups every 
single day and I used to suck at

850
00:40:11,400 --> 00:40:14,120
pull ups man. 
Like 7 pull ups was my Max. 

851
00:40:14,440 --> 00:40:17,000
Now we're doing 35 every single 
day and they're getting easy. 

852
00:40:18,000 --> 00:40:20,920
I just keep a leveling up but 
like committing to something 

853
00:40:20,920 --> 00:40:25,240
every single day. 
One, one year I did a 365 Savage

854
00:40:25,480 --> 00:40:28,400
was like the slogan for the year
and I was partnered up with 

855
00:40:28,400 --> 00:40:33,080
Brandon and DJ and we all ran a 
mile every single day of the 

856
00:40:33,080 --> 00:40:34,640
year. 
And it sucked, man. 

857
00:40:34,640 --> 00:40:36,520
Like a mile's not a huge time 
commitment. 

858
00:40:36,520 --> 00:40:39,640
It's not a big distance by any 
means, but I mean, I'd be at a 

859
00:40:39,640 --> 00:40:42,360
conference all day, get home at 
10:00 PM, it'd be snow on the 

860
00:40:42,360 --> 00:40:43,760
ground. 
I'm like, screw it, I'm going to

861
00:40:43,760 --> 00:40:46,520
go run my mile, you know? 
So like that's where it gets 

862
00:40:46,520 --> 00:40:51,600
hard, like the day-to-day, 
limitless, never ending arduous 

863
00:40:51,800 --> 00:40:54,960
without deviation grind. 
But like when I look back on 

864
00:40:55,080 --> 00:40:58,200
everything in my life, that's 
where all the progress is made. 

865
00:40:58,560 --> 00:41:04,120
So what are three things that 
you could realistically commit 

866
00:41:04,120 --> 00:41:07,920
to every single day and never 
deviate from? 

867
00:41:08,960 --> 00:41:12,560
Definitely drinking coffee. 
Coffee. 

868
00:41:12,560 --> 00:41:13,720
I like I can get behind them. 
I. 

869
00:41:14,760 --> 00:41:18,680
Mean I try to hit my steps every
single day, try to lift every 

870
00:41:18,680 --> 00:41:20,360
single day. 
Well, maybe not every single 

871
00:41:20,360 --> 00:41:22,280
day, but some type of movement 
every single day. 

872
00:41:22,280 --> 00:41:25,520
I'd have to give that a little 
bit of thought that'd be that'd 

873
00:41:25,520 --> 00:41:30,480
be great. 
Things are just knockout all 26.

874
00:41:30,480 --> 00:41:32,880
Yeah, one thing I do every 
single day is work. 

875
00:41:33,160 --> 00:41:35,360
And I sometimes it's not 
anything crazy, like maybe it's 

876
00:41:35,360 --> 00:41:36,960
just a newsletter. 
Like on Sunday I may just write 

877
00:41:36,960 --> 00:41:40,480
the newsletter, but I pretty 
much do some form of work on the

878
00:41:40,480 --> 00:41:43,280
business every single day, like 
checking with clients. 

879
00:41:43,280 --> 00:41:46,880
Like something I could totally 
get behind lifting every single 

880
00:41:46,880 --> 00:41:48,400
day. 
And some days maybe more of like

881
00:41:48,480 --> 00:41:50,360
resistance band. 
I'm travelling like let's 

882
00:41:50,360 --> 00:41:52,800
knockout push ups, pull ups and 
some resistance band curl. 

883
00:41:52,800 --> 00:41:55,600
Or even just resistance training
and not necessarily lifting. 

884
00:41:55,600 --> 00:41:57,600
Yeah, so like. 
That I can get behind. 

885
00:41:58,080 --> 00:42:02,520
So I need like a third one lift.
I mean, I'm not a runner, but 

886
00:42:02,520 --> 00:42:06,920
like I like where my mind goes 
when I do run. 

887
00:42:07,320 --> 00:42:11,400
So like, I might take a running 
from a psychological standpoint 

888
00:42:11,400 --> 00:42:14,760
more so than a physical. 
It was pretty cool running 

889
00:42:14,760 --> 00:42:15,600
Lincoln. 
Like this morning. 

890
00:42:15,600 --> 00:42:18,160
Seeing the sun come up like that
was pleasant for sure. 

891
00:42:18,360 --> 00:42:20,400
Put me in the right headspace. 
Before it got too hot too, 

892
00:42:20,400 --> 00:42:21,680
probably. 
Yeah, yeah. 

893
00:42:21,920 --> 00:42:25,200
So I don't know, I'm gonna think
about that, but just commit to 

894
00:42:25,200 --> 00:42:28,800
something and grinding on it 
every single damn day, brother. 

895
00:42:28,880 --> 00:42:30,760
And it starts out hard, and 
before I know it, it's getting 

896
00:42:30,760 --> 00:42:32,240
easy, yeah. 
Yeah, yeah. 

897
00:42:32,840 --> 00:42:33,880
Sweet. 
All right. 

898
00:42:33,880 --> 00:42:35,840
It's probably a wrap. 
How how far are we in chip? 

899
00:42:35,840 --> 00:42:39,320
42 minutes, 42 minutes. 
All right. 

900
00:42:39,440 --> 00:42:42,200
Well, to summarize, do hard 
shit. 

901
00:42:42,200 --> 00:42:45,280
Do hard stuff. 
Without fail and we got Brick by

902
00:42:45,280 --> 00:42:50,320
Brick Anniversary launching noon
Central on 3rd on the 3rd of 

903
00:42:50,320 --> 00:42:55,320
August until 11:59 PM on the 
10th of August, 15% off site 

904
00:42:55,320 --> 00:42:59,440
wide at ketobrick.com. 
You get your name on a on the 

905
00:42:59,560 --> 00:43:02,240
shipping container regardless of
how much you buy. 

906
00:43:02,440 --> 00:43:04,360
Like if you buy that week, 
you're going to get your name on

907
00:43:04,360 --> 00:43:08,360
there, and if you spend 250 more
you get a free shirt, so. 

908
00:43:09,000 --> 00:43:12,600
And I would say if you have the 
opportunity to stockpile earlier

909
00:43:12,600 --> 00:43:17,040
in the week, make it happen 
because usually stuff sells out 

910
00:43:17,040 --> 00:43:18,800
during that. 
Yeah, we're making some malt 

911
00:43:19,080 --> 00:43:20,440
today, so Malt's going to be 
back you. 

912
00:43:20,440 --> 00:43:22,080
Got a lot of flavors that'll be 
popping back. 

913
00:43:22,080 --> 00:43:24,600
Up we're making PB Hallelujah so
that's going to be back in 

914
00:43:24,600 --> 00:43:26,240
stock. 
I don't think we still have some

915
00:43:26,240 --> 00:43:28,000
of that, but we're going to have
a lot more PB Hallelujah. 

916
00:43:28,000 --> 00:43:30,640
We got primal fudge in stock, 
which is always sold out. 

917
00:43:30,640 --> 00:43:32,080
Carnivore, we got chocolate 
peanut butter. 

918
00:43:32,080 --> 00:43:33,400
We got them all. 
None of them all. 

919
00:43:33,400 --> 00:43:34,720
Not all of them, but we got a
