Welcome to the Less Glove
0:14
morphist Podcast.
0:17
With me, Coach Bronson and me,
0:17
Coach Natt, where we peel back the curtains
0:21
and reveal the truth behind Hot Topics in
0:21
health and fitness.
0:24
This is Keto Fitness at Life
0:24
Unfiltered.
0:30
What's going on, everybody?
0:30
Welcome back to another episode of the Less
0:34
Glove morphist Podcast with me Coach.
0:36
Bronson and me, Coach Matt.
0:39
Today we're going to be talking
0:39
about context in not sports.
0:43
I wanted to say sports and fitness because we
0:43
have a ton of athletes on this podcast.
0:49
Exercise and fitness is what we're talking
0:49
about, how to apply context.
0:53
We've talked about this before from a
0:53
nutrition perspective.
0:56
Yes, we do. We went deep onto why context is king.
1:01
And then we're going to get
1:01
into that a little bit today before we do
1:05
that. How are you doing today, Katzena?
1:07
I'm feeling so good right now.
1:09
Yeah.
1:10
I did a morning workout today.
1:12
Okay.
1:13
Very different from my norm.
1:16
I did punching things up. So I did interval training, high intensity
1:18
interval training this morning and ABS.
1:25
Yeah.
1:26
And right now, I just feel like
1:26
kicking back with a pumpkin spice latte.
1:32
Okay, pumpkin cane, we're going
1:32
to talk about.
1:34
Okay, so pumpkin spice latte, I'm assuming not
1:34
Starbucks.
1:37
Not Starbucks.
1:38
So what is your pumpkin spice
1:38
latte?
1:41
Oh, my gosh. Today I made something amazing.
1:44
So if you all don't follow me on social media
1:44
where you've been, you need to come holler at
1:50
me on Instagram and Facebook and all the
1:50
places on YouTube.
1:56
I talk a lot. Every single day in my stories, I post my Keto
2:00
coffee. Keto coffee.
2:02
And literally every day hashtag Keto Coffee.
2:07
In my stories, the first thing you'll see from me every day, and I switch up the flavors and
2:09
I switch up a little bit of how I do it.
2:15
But I have a basic recipe, and it is a small
2:15
amount of MCT oil about a teaspoon blended
2:22
into my coffee with a nondairy creamer.
2:25
Because I don't do dairy. Dairy doesn't love me as much as I love it,
2:26
which is usually a Nut Pod, dairy free creamer
2:34
of many different flavors.
2:36
Right now, I'm on the caramel. So today I made a pumpkin spice keto coffee
2:38
using and this is how I get my different
2:45
flavors. I use flavored coffees.
2:47
So I don't do the Terrani syrup.
2:54
I don't do syrups. I don't do, like, flavored, sweetened,
2:55
artificially sweetened things.
3:01
I use the Nut Pods, which is an unsweetened
3:01
creamer that is a nondairy unsweetened
3:06
creamer. Or I will use Colicia Farms Coconut Almond
3:10
Milk Blend, usually a coconut almond milk or
3:10
coconut milk blend thing with flavors, but no
3:18
added sweeteners.
3:19
This episode is not sponsored
3:19
by nut pods or Khalifa.
3:23
I wonder what nut pods what's?
3:23
A mutt pod?
3:26
Oh, would that be a dairy and nondairy creamer
3:26
for dogs?
3:31
Okay, Nut Pods, if you're listening, first of
3:31
all, we are not sponsored by that wink wink.
3:37
Unless you all are there at all.
3:40
But I just gave you a brilliant idea. So when you come out with Mutt Pots, give me
3:42
some credit.
3:47
I digress. I use flavored coffees to get the flavoring
3:52
that I want. And so I have a pumpkin spice coffee.
3:56
Once again, holler at me on Instagram if you
3:56
want discount codes for these things, because
4:00
I do have a favorite coffee company, and I do
4:00
have a discount code for them.
4:06
So my pumpkin spice and I also have a maple
4:06
flavored coffee.
4:10
So today I mixed the maple and the pumpkin
4:10
spice to make and then I used the caramel nut
4:16
pods. So I made a maple caramel pumpkin spice keto
4:22
latte.
4:22
And you loved every single drop.
4:24
Oh, my gosh. And I want another one.
4:26
00 in the afternoon, and I'm
4:26
cutting myself off from the caffeine.
4:30
00, but I
4:30
may.
4:33
Make a chai chai tea latte.
4:37
We do some tea every once in a
4:37
while, and we do some other stuff, too.
4:40
Chai season.
4:41
Okay. Yeah. My coffee is real
4:41
simple right now, guys.
4:45
It's black.
4:46
He did go basic.
4:48
I went basic, but it's not
4:48
super basic because it's got to be the right
4:51
black. It can't be burnt. It can't be watered down.
4:55
You got to actually taste the coffee.
4:58
It has to be strong.
4:59
When he says taste the coffee,
4:59
he.
5:02
Means taste the coffee.
5:04
Tar.
5:05
It is not tar.
5:08
Which one are you using right now? Are you doing.
5:13
Death Wish back in the house?
5:13
Okay.
5:21
All about coffee, but I did
5:21
mention some training.
5:25
In the training that I did today.
5:27
I'll put the time mark in
5:27
there.
5:29
The first five minutes is just coffee talk.
5:33
Yeah. So we're talking about exercise and fitness
5:33
and context.
5:36
So why is this something that we're talking
5:36
about?
5:40
Well, we often get clients who are coming to
5:40
us and have a bunch of different things that
5:47
they're looking at doing or have been doing
5:47
when it comes to fitness and exercise.
5:51
We also listen to a bunch of different people
5:51
on social media, people that we follow there
5:56
in the space, whether they're professionals,
5:56
want to be professionals, just influencers, or
6:01
just fitness models. You didn't see the air quotes.
6:05
Anybody listening? Didn't see the air quotes.
6:08
We see a lot on TikTok.
6:09
We see a lot on TikTok. We see a lot of information that really no one
6:12
should be listening to, and then there's some
6:12
great information that everyone should be
6:15
listening to.
6:16
And then we ourselves have
6:16
tried many different things over the years,
6:19
and we switch up our training styles from time
6:19
to time.
6:23
Yes, very much so.
6:25
Like I just did.
6:26
Right.
6:28
And we can maybe talk about and.
6:29
We come from different schools
6:29
when it comes to different schools of thought.
6:33
Different schools of thought and experience.
6:35
Yes.
6:36
Yeah. So we're going to get
6:36
into all of that stuff.
6:39
The thing, though, I think that resonates with
6:39
me I forget who we were listening to.
6:43
It might have been a TikTok video or YouTube,
6:43
and the guy ended it with, don't listen to a
6:50
yoga instructor for power lifting advice, or
6:50
something like that.
6:53
I think it was a ticktok. It was amazing.
6:57
And we were like, oh, we need to talk about it.
6:59
This is like, oh, we need to
6:59
talk about this, because that's a great point,
7:01
and it's not anything we haven't talked about
7:01
before, but it just kind of we saw the same
7:05
video and we were like, oh, that's something
7:05
we should talk about, because it is something
7:09
that we see all the time, people missing
7:09
context.
7:11
So there's probably a couple of different ways
7:11
we could approach this.
7:14
Let's talk first about what are some of the
7:14
things that we see our clients come to us
7:20
with.
7:21
Yes.
7:21
And how it applies to that,
7:21
because a lot of people listening or have been
7:25
clients or former clients or followers may
7:25
eventually become clients, whatever it may be.
7:29
So how do we approach that with clients?
7:31
Right. So I'm glad that you
7:31
opened that up first, because I think the
7:34
whole key on this, those who are listening to
7:34
us, is that to derive a benefit from this,
7:43
ultimately, how do you know what you should be
7:43
doing for your fitness program?
7:48
Yes, that's a great question.
7:50
Right?
7:50
And that's the question that people come to us
7:52
with, well, what should I be doing for my
7:52
fitness program?
7:55
Or this is what I have been doing.
7:58
Am I doing the wrong thing? Right?
8:00
And so we always like we do with nutrition,
8:03
we're generally going to have a lot more
8:03
questions for that person before we can give
8:08
them an answer. The first question is going to be, well, what
8:13
are you trying to accomplish?
8:13
What is your goal?
8:16
You mean goals matter?
8:19
So first and foremost, to
8:19
figure out what you need to be doing, you need
8:25
to know where you're trying to go.
8:27
Bing, bing, bing. What does that mean for fitness, though?
8:31
Well, right, because with nutrition, it's,
8:31
well, I want to lose weight.
8:35
Right?
8:35
Well, is that really what
8:35
you're trying to do?
8:38
Well, I'll tell you what. Here's a misconception we can clear up right
8:43
here and now. And this was another TikTok.
8:45
I don't know if I shared this one with you,
8:45
okay?
8:48
But I was like, this is brilliant.
8:50
And he said, there is not a single exercise in
8:54
the world that burns fat.
9:00
There's a lot of people going, Wait, what?
9:02
I pause there on purpose
9:02
because you all need to take that in, really
9:06
receive that. There is no exercise that is going to burn
9:10
fat. And, you know, people are sitting out there
9:13
going, but what about this?
9:13
But what about that?
9:16
But what about hip training? But what about cardio? But what about this?
9:18
Kickboxing all the things they've heard,
9:21
right?
9:21
But the number one question that I get on the
9:25
physique side of things, right? Sure. Most of my ladies are coming to me because
9:27
they're not happy with their bodies, and they
9:31
want to change the shape or size of their body
9:31
or both.
9:36
So their goal is typically aesthetic when it
9:36
comes to what do I do for fitness.
9:42
They're asking, how can I change the shape of
9:42
my body?
9:46
What that means is build muscle and burn body
9:46
fat or lose body fat to reveal a shapely
9:55
womanly figure. Yeah.
9:57
They don't want to get bulky.
9:59
That's a whole nother.
10:02
Yes, but for the most part,
10:02
when women come to me, they have at least some
10:08
understanding that if you want to get this fit
10:08
look, that you see all these IG models and
10:14
these people online that look good to you,
10:14
they built muscle and lost body fat.
10:20
So usually they already have that in mind,
10:20
that that's what they want is body
10:24
recomposition or body transformation.
10:27
Yeah. Let's swing back real
10:27
quick to the idea because I think people are
10:31
going to get stuck on this and may not hear
10:31
the rest of what we're talking about.
10:34
The idea that exercise doesn't burn fat.
10:38
Yeah.
10:39
So there's a couple of aspects
10:39
of that I think.
10:41
Well, where I was going with
10:41
that was the question is usually what
10:45
exercises can I do to burn body fat or to burn
10:45
off this belly?
10:51
This belly or on my arms or.
10:53
Whatever specific areas of the
10:53
body where they are trying to burn.
10:57
They want to lose body fat in those areas, and
10:57
they think that certain exercises are going to
11:02
get them that result.
11:03
Yes. So if we get that all the
11:03
time, we've talked to many people who are
11:06
like, I've got this fat on my ABS.
11:10
What kind of AB workout can I do to make the
11:13
fat? It's like, how do I work out?
11:15
How do I target my undergs to
11:15
get rid of that extra fat butt fat or get rid
11:22
of this fat on my hips?
11:24
Yeah. And under arm for women. Yeah.
11:31
So that just doesn't work that way.
11:33
The other aspect of that, and I want people to
11:35
understand, too, I've talked about this
11:35
before, but I think it bears repeating, is
11:40
that, yes, there are exercises you can do that
11:40
can increase your overall fat caloric burn in
11:47
a day.
11:47
Yes.
11:48
Okay. But here's the thing
11:48
that's not helping you because it actually has
11:55
diminishing returns on how much you can burn.
11:58
And in order to continue burning, you have to do more work.
12:01
So if you're going 2030 minutes a day for
12:05
three or four days a week, and you're like,
12:05
I'm getting my extra 200 to 300 calorie burn
12:10
every time I go, that's great. You can maintain that.
12:13
That's fantastic, no big deal. But if you want to continue doing that, it's
12:17
going to slowly creak up to 40 minutes each
12:17
time, 45 minutes each time an hour, and then
12:22
you're going to be at the gym for 2 hours on
12:22
the cardio and not losing any more than you
12:27
were when you were doing 30 minutes six months
12:27
earlier.
12:30
Yes, and it doesn't work that
12:30
way.
12:34
Five more extra calories in your day. Now you're putting body fat on.
12:37
Exactly.
12:37
Why can I not maintain this?
12:39
Exactly. So the idea of doing cardio should fit into
12:44
your plan for improving your metabolic
12:44
condition so that your body is good and
12:50
efficient and doesn't get freaked out when you
12:50
do that type of work in real life, but not
12:54
specifically for falls.
12:56
And it ties into the
12:56
maintenance conversation of how do you
12:59
maintain the results you're working so hard to
12:59
get?
13:02
You have to continue to maintain the level of
13:02
work that you're doing to get those results.
13:06
So if you are overdoing the cardio now, you're
13:06
going to have to continue overdoing the cardio
13:11
for the rest of your life to me, ding, ding,
13:11
ding.
13:14
And I don't think any of us want to be doing
13:14
hours of cardio.
13:16
Yeah, it's what you said on one
13:16
of our earlier talks.
13:19
We say whatever you're doing, if you're
13:19
focused on fat loss, whatever you did to get
13:24
that fat off is what you're going to have to
13:24
do for the rest of your life to keep it off.
13:28
So pick your options very carefully because
13:28
you want something that's sustainable and
13:34
something that you can live with.
13:35
The number one reason why
13:35
people yoyo diet and they're in this yoyo with
13:41
the body fat gain and loss every year, because
13:41
you're doing too much extremes to get it off,
13:47
you can't maintain that. You put it right back on and then you have to
13:50
go to the extremes again. Or you think you have to go to the extremes
13:53
again. When in reality, if you didn't do such an
13:56
extreme, you'd be sailing through your
13:56
maintenance and be able to maintain that.
14:01
I think there's a whole other
14:01
concept which we don't need to dig into, but I
14:06
don't know if you've ever heard me say there
14:06
is no such thing as maintenance.
14:09
I don't think I have.
14:11
We'll have to talk about that
14:11
online and what that means and what that's all
14:15
about. Yeah, okay, I got chill.
14:19
So we'll have to do a
14:19
maintenance episode.
14:21
What is maintenance?
14:21
How do you do it all kind of stuff?
14:24
What does it really mean?
14:25
Oh, totally.
14:26
Because again, there's context
14:26
there too from quality of life, in case you're
14:33
catching a thread. For you guys listening, there's a common theme
14:38
that you're probably going to hear and a lot
14:38
of what we do, because here's the difference
14:42
between, I think us as coaches and our
14:42
philosophy on health and fitness is because
14:46
we're looking at results, we're not trying to
14:46
push a method.
14:52
Right.
14:53
So because we're looking at
14:53
results, we use multiple methods.
14:58
We use, hey, we may do this one day with one
14:58
person and do something completely different.
15:03
Oh, man.
15:04
With another person.
15:05
You just hit the nail on the head. We're not pushing a system.
15:08
Right.
15:09
We have to do this way, and so
15:09
now we have to justify our way of doing
15:14
things. And so everything we ever talk about is
15:18
pointing you toward our way of doing it.
15:20
Yeah. And people think that's
15:20
what we do when we talk about stuff.
15:24
And I've had people accuse me, well, you're a
15:24
high protein.
15:27
You're this or that. And I'm like, no, I'm what you need.
15:30
I'm context dependent.
15:33
Oh, my God. I like, that better
15:33
than evidence or results based.
15:37
Oh, yeah.
15:37
I'm context dependent.
15:39
I'm context dependent.
15:41
Yes.
15:41
I like to say I meet you where
15:41
you are.
15:44
I meet my clients where they are.
15:45
Same thing.
15:45
Oh, my gosh. The number of clients who have felt like
15:50
failures because they're not perfect
15:50
carnivores.
15:52
I had this question the other day.
15:55
We're so far off track right now.
15:56
I know, but I have to say this. I had this question the other day from client.
16:01
Are all of your other clients 100% perfect
16:01
carnivore?
16:06
Hell no.
16:07
I said none of my clients.
16:09
I'm not even perfect technically. Right, right.
16:11
I use mustard and I was like, not even
16:15
perfect.
16:15
Take perfection out of it. All of my clients are not carnivore.
16:18
There you go.
16:19
Majority of my clients are not
16:19
carnivore.
16:22
Exactly.
16:22
So I don't know. People get things in their heads about what we
16:25
are and what we do. We're trying to break down all of those
16:29
barriers and show you who we really are on
16:29
this podcast.
16:31
Exactly.
16:32
Okay, so going back to the
16:32
topic again okay, wait.
16:37
First and foremost, what do you mean exercise
16:37
doesn't burn fat.
16:42
Okay. It doesn't burn fat, people, you burn calories
16:48
in a workout. Yes. But you're burning calories all day long every
16:50
day in your life.
16:55
Okay, so I love this topic.
16:57
Yes, I know you do.
16:59
It's math time, folks.
17:00
Here we go.
17:02
The paper. And I want you to if you know, if you don't
17:06
know what it is, go online. If you have an in body scale, which I highly
17:10
recommend everybody get, it will tell you what
17:10
your base metabolic rate is.
17:14
Okay?
17:14
So for me, my base metabolic rate is right
17:17
around 2000 calories a day. That's my Netflix and Chill Calorie burn.
17:20
If I sit on the couch all day and don't do
17:20
anything, that's how many calories.
17:24
This is what you hear called
17:24
BMR or RMR.
17:27
Right? Resting metabolic rate. So for me, it's 2000 calories.
17:31
Divide that by 24 hours in a day.
17:35
Okay. Whatever number that comes out to be, which I
17:37
don't have, I could probably do it.
17:41
Whatever number that comes out to be, which
17:43
will tell you just a second when we open up
17:43
our calculator, okay?
17:50
83 calories an hour is what I burn on average.
17:54
So if I go to the gym and I do a workout and
17:57
my watch says I burned 150 calories guess what
17:57
I need to subtract from that.
18:03
150.
18:04
83.
18:06
Exactly. So one of the reasons why I don't like
18:10
counting on watches and caloric burn, just
18:10
another reason why I say tracking calendars
18:16
burned and that kind of stuff isn't really
18:16
that effective.
18:20
Yeah, it's great to say I got some activity
18:20
and track your activity and.
18:24
Honestly, it's better for the
18:24
psychosomatic stuff like, oh, you feel good
18:29
about what you did, so it makes you proud and
18:29
it makes you want to do it again.
18:32
Well, that I love. That's great if you're using it for that.
18:36
But if you're like, oh, and especially with
18:36
these nutrition trackers that take out your
18:42
exercise extended better because they're taking.
18:44
Out stuff that shouldn't be taken out.
18:46
And how do you think you can
18:46
eat more?
18:48
Exactly. That's just where I was going. And that's if you're of the mindset that I'm
18:51
exercising so that I can eat, which is a whole
18:56
other discussion.
18:57
Right, well, and if you're so
18:57
focused on the calorie part, which we already
19:02
know, because bronson is like, you just stop
19:02
looking at calories.
19:07
But this all to say that, yes, exercise burns
19:07
calories.
19:11
Just like moving around in your day to day
19:11
life burns calories.
19:14
And yes, in the simplistic term calories in,
19:14
calories out, energy expenditure is going to
19:22
determine your fat loss. In that way, you can say that exercise
19:29
contributes to fat loss.
19:31
Sure.
19:32
But what we're talking about
19:32
when we say exercise does not burn fat off
19:38
your body, it particularly does not spot
19:38
reduce.
19:44
Yeah, we're talking about
19:44
targeted fat loss.
19:46
You may hear that term spot
19:46
reduction is not a thing.
19:49
It's not possible to remove that on your ABS
19:49
or on your triceps from working out your ABS
19:56
or your triceps. That's not how it works.
19:59
Correct. Now, the reason why we think that it does this
20:04
is because when you build muscle in an area
20:04
and you're also losing body fat, now you're
20:12
toning up that area as we heard that term
20:12
tone.
20:17
So it looks tighter, it looks toned, it looks
20:17
leaner.
20:24
The more muscle you build, when you lose that
20:24
body fat, you're going to look more fit.
20:30
We're turning fat into muscle, right? That's how it works.
20:32
No. Oh my gosh, the number of
20:32
times I've read that in the chat, I can never
20:39
scroll by without commenting.
20:41
Fat does not turn to muscle.
20:45
You can lose fat and build muscle that never
20:45
turns into muscle, people.
20:52
It never, ever happens that way.
20:54
And here's the thing. Your body is going to choose to lose fat
20:55
wherever it wants to, in whatever way it wants
21:01
to, and everybody's body is different.
21:04
So when you're frustrated that your ABS like,
21:07
oh my gosh, it says, all of my trackers are
21:07
saying I'm losing fat and I'm losing weight,
21:14
but I still have this gut.
21:16
Why can't I get rid of my belly fat?
21:19
Keep going.
21:19
It's just your body has
21:19
prioritized other areas and there's nothing
21:25
you can do.
21:26
And just for everybody's sense
21:26
of mental health here, when it comes to this,
21:32
most people lose it last around the waist and
21:32
around the hips.
21:39
That's most people. So you're not alone.
21:41
It's not just you, it's me.
21:43
I'm currently there. I've got some flabby flabby around my now
21:44
granted, my waistline is the same as it was
21:51
when I was 18, but I've still got a little
21:51
extra stuff hanging there that I can't it's
21:56
like I've got to get keep going. And my fat loss if I really want it to go
22:01
down.
22:01
And those are the kinds of
22:01
things where you really have to ask yourself
22:04
like how worth it?
22:05
What's the quality of life that
22:05
I would need to have to get to that point?
22:07
Is it really worth it?
22:09
There are a lot of unrealistic
22:09
expectations out there.
22:12
There's a whole another discussion that could.
22:14
Be a whole different topic.
22:15
The expectation and the
22:15
lifestyle compared to the goal.
22:19
How do you manage this?
22:20
What are you really willing to do? I have clients who are getting quite lean.
22:25
They're in a healthy range and questioning,
22:28
right, you know what?
22:28
This feels really good.
22:31
I think I've found where I want my maintenance
22:31
to be.
22:35
Do I really want to keep going?
22:37
Because here's what happens. Eventually we're going to talk about context
22:41
and exercise and fitness guys, but this is
22:41
what happens.
22:45
A lot of times people have this random goal
22:45
that they put in front of themselves and they
22:51
get to about 80% towards that goal and realize
22:51
they love their lives and they haven't even
22:56
gotten close to their goal. And then they're like, well, do I need to hit
23:00
that goal or do I kind of stay where I'm at?
23:00
Because if I want to keep going, I might have
23:05
to do more, I might have to focus more, I
23:05
might have to put more time in that next level
23:11
and I don't know if I have that in me.
23:13
I like where I'm at now and I'm sustaining it
23:16
fairly easily. Maybe I just want to hang out here for a
23:19
little bit, which is perfectly fine. And I think for many people, if you can get to
23:24
that point, that's.
23:24
A huge that is the goal in my
23:24
opinion.
23:27
And then a lot of the time we see the other
23:27
side of that coin.
23:30
People had an arbitrary number on the scale in
23:30
mind or something.
23:35
They hit that number and they are nowhere near
23:35
the body that they want.
23:38
They still don't feel great in their body. They still have a way to go and it's like,
23:42
well, I hit my goal weight, but it's not what
23:42
I thought it was going to be when I hit my
23:47
goal.
23:47
Well, because the expectations
23:47
of what the weight was going to be.
23:50
So in that case, the expectation was off.
23:54
They weren't looking at the other things.
23:56
Why quality of life?
23:56
What are the things that they get that they're
23:59
looking to change, and they were just wanting
23:59
to change their weight.
24:03
So, again, getting back to the why and the
24:03
goals really need to be realistic.
24:08
So that takes us back to where
24:08
we were in this discussion.
24:11
The first thing you have to do to decide what
24:11
exercise program is right for you is to
24:16
determine what is your goal. So, Coach Bronson, how can somebody get clear
24:22
on their goal.
24:25
That'S going to be different for everyone? I think the process is really what brought you
24:27
to listen to us, what brought you to start
24:31
looking at information. What is motivating you to find out more about
24:36
how to change your life and figure out, okay,
24:36
what is it you're trying to change that leads
24:42
you to what the goal should be?
24:42
If you're trying to change simply because you
24:47
feel like you're not happy with how you look
24:47
and you determine that your goal is just
24:52
aesthetic, you don't have any metabolic issues
24:52
that you know of.
24:55
You don't feel like you're having any symptoms
24:55
of anything that you're trying to heal or fix
25:03
looking at. Okay. I don't like the way that I look in the
25:04
mirror.
25:06
I don't feel comfortable in a bathing suit.
25:09
I want to look good for my spouse or these
25:12
things or my kid called me fat the other day,
25:12
and I don't like that, whatever it may be.
25:17
Okay, so you have an aesthetic goal that's
25:17
perfectly fine.
25:20
It's 100% fine. I don't want anybody oh, my gosh.
25:25
There's another thing. When we talk about our goals, there is not a
25:29
single goal that you can have that is wrong.
25:34
If your goal is 100%, I want to have a six
25:38
pack and look good in a bikini or a speedo.
25:41
If you're a guy, okay, then that is a
25:44
perfectly fine goal, and I will help you get
25:44
there.
25:48
Yes.
25:48
If your goal is I want to lose
25:48
£150 and be able to play with my grandkids
25:53
every day and not feel wore out and hurt for
25:53
three days afterwards, that is a perfectly
25:57
good goal. And Coach Natan, I will help you get there.
25:59
So a goal is a goal.
26:02
Everyone's going to have different reasons for setting their goals.
26:04
Nobody else's opinion has any
26:04
bearing on your personal goals.
26:09
Absolutely.
26:10
There's nothing wrong with just
26:10
wanting to.
26:12
Look sexy as fuck 100%. Because here's the deal.
26:15
If we're completely honest, there isn't a
26:15
single person who's got a health goal, weight
26:20
loss goal, or any where their looks don't play
26:20
some percentage of their motivation.
26:27
Absolutely.
26:28
Okay, so, I mean, you guys look
26:28
at Coach Nat, and I like, oh, my God, you guys
26:31
are in great shape. You look great, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah.
26:34
We have the same freaking issues you guys
26:34
have.
26:36
I look in the mirror, and I see 15 things that
26:36
I'd like to change, and they are aesthetic
26:41
goals. I have taken care of all of my health goals.
26:45
I've reached those goals. I don't have IBS.
26:47
I don't have virgin bowels. All of my injuries are gone.
26:51
All the chronic, repeated injuries that I
26:51
would get all the time are gone.
26:56
I don't have any issues. So what is left for me?
27:01
Athletic performance and aesthetics.
27:04
That's what I've got. So my goals are based on what I can do and how
27:05
I can.
27:08
Look optimizing at this time,
27:08
I'm an.
27:10
Optimisation, so I'm trying to
27:10
be as athletic, perform as well as I can, and
27:16
look as good as I can. That's what I'm looking for right now, which,
27:18
honestly, I'm glad I started this.
27:21
As sad as I am that I didn't get started until
27:24
I was almost 40 years old, I'm glad I've had
27:24
the last ten years to work on it, and I worked
27:28
on it and didn't put it off, and I actually.
27:31
Put time into it.
27:32
Now I'm 50, and I'm not worried
27:32
about health at 50.
27:36
I'm worried about maintaining physical
27:36
performance and looking good from 50 for the
27:40
next 2030, 40, 50 years.
27:43
And you all, I'm very happy
27:43
that he's in this place.
27:49
That's the thing.
27:49
I see some of the benefits of this.
27:51
I don't have to spend the next
27:51
20 years of my life trying to.
27:54
Get healthy, trying to get
27:54
where you are now.
27:57
I'm here. I'm ready to go. My sunset years are ready to go.
28:01
You know what I mean?
28:02
Wherever you are in your
28:02
journey, whatever age you are at now, think
28:07
about yourself ten years from now or five
28:07
years from now and how grateful that future
28:12
self will be about the steps you're taking
28:12
now.
28:16
Wherever you are, whatever age, you can still
28:16
set yourself up for success for the next
28:22
decade.
28:24
Decades and decades and decades. Absolutely.
28:27
All right, so what are some of the goals?
28:30
We've established that it doesn't matter what
28:30
your goal?
28:32
Your goal is some of the common things that we
28:32
see.
28:36
Weight loss is a goal. Huge aesthetics.
28:40
I want to build a body. I want to shape my body tone, whatever you
28:43
want to call that. Functionality is another goal.
28:47
Strength is another goal.
28:50
I think those are probably the four things.
28:51
Yeah. Functionality. Being, like, the ability to do things right.
28:55
Yes. Being able to live your life, be mobile, be
28:59
able to interact with the way you want to in
28:59
the world.
29:05
Okay.
29:05
For all those things you said,
29:05
performance, like, athletic performance.
29:09
That could be athletic. Performance. That could be life. Quality of life.
29:11
That's functionality, I think, kind of is a
29:11
bigger I mean, we could say athletic,
29:19
specifically athletic. If people are competitive, athletes and
29:23
certain things, that's a whole other area, but
29:23
that can kind of go through, like yeah.
29:26
Aesthetics, functionality, and
29:26
or we could say performance.
29:31
Performance. Okay. Which could
29:31
be strength.
29:34
Could be sports. It could be whatever.
29:36
Yeah. Okay. Although I don't
29:36
know.
29:39
Would you put strength. In. I guess strength is part of performance.
29:42
Well, you said that because I
29:42
was just going to say the one thing that I
29:48
want everyone to remember about all the things
29:48
that we're talking about is protein builds
29:53
muscle. Muscle maintains your metabolism and keeps you
29:57
strong. Strength is the number one focus of all your
30:01
exercise. No matter what you're doing, you want to make
30:06
sure that you're getting stronger when you're
30:06
doing it.
30:08
Yes, I love that.
30:10
Okay. Because the stronger you
30:10
are, the more utilization of protein you're
30:15
getting, the more muscle mass you're building
30:15
and the better your metabolism is going to
30:18
function. So that is the number one marker that we look
30:21
at when we say, is somebody getting healthy?
30:21
That's why in my programs, when I'm working
30:27
with people, we have the fitness aspect where
30:27
I track your performance.
30:30
We look at, are you actually performing better
30:30
now than you were ten weeks ago?
30:35
Because if you're not, then something's up.
30:37
You're not eating enough protein, you're not working hard enough in your workout, you're
30:39
not getting enough sleep.
30:42
There's a bunch of things we can look at
30:42
because strength drives health, strength
30:46
drives longevity, strength drives
30:46
survivability and physical freedom.
30:52
So everything we do should be focused on
30:52
getting stronger.
30:56
Outside of that, then we get into the
30:56
semantics in the context of, okay, how do we
31:02
move?
31:03
Well, why don't we do this?
31:03
Because we talked about goals.
31:06
Right. So typically we have aesthetic goals. We have people who want to get stronger.
31:10
We have people who want to move better in
31:13
life. And they may have specific performance goals.
31:18
If they have hobbies that they want to be
31:18
better at, they may have specific goals around
31:23
that. I think those are the main areas of goals.
31:25
Right, sure.
31:26
We leave anything out of that. I still think that fat loss, weight loss,
31:30
that's an essential goal.
31:32
Sure.
31:32
Right. Okay. So that's the
31:32
goal.
31:34
Let's kind of put those off to the side and
31:34
then revisit those.
31:37
But what I'd like to do is just let's do a
31:37
laundry list of all of the different exercise
31:44
modalities and things that we hear about that
31:44
people are doing or interested in doing.
31:49
Do we want to do a thumbs up or
31:49
thumbs down?
31:54
I wonder if we have similar or
31:54
different opinions on similar.
31:57
We could try that up or down.
32:00
Okay.
32:00
We'll do yay or nay.
32:01
Or nay. Okay, so like things that we would.
32:03
Suggest no, let's just talk
32:03
about any interview.
32:09
Let's throw out terms like popcorn that are
32:09
out there.
32:11
Right, okay, well, so then it's kind.
32:14
Of hard if we don't quantify it
32:14
because technically anything would be a yay,
32:19
depending on who's doing it and when they're
32:19
doing it.
32:21
Okay, so let's first let's just
32:21
do a quick fire, like all the different quick
32:27
terms.
32:27
Okay. You go first.
32:28
Okay. CrossFit.
32:30
Of course. I'm supposed to say CrossFit.
32:31
I know, but I'm looking at you and you.
32:33
Okay, bodybuilding.
32:34
Okay. Group fitness classes.
32:39
Okay, so would that include
32:39
like, orangetheory, F, 45, Less Mills?
32:44
Well, those are all a type that
32:44
are all very similar type, like a cardio type
32:48
class. Kickboxing classes would be in there.
32:51
Zumba would be in there.
32:53
So zumba and Kickboxing, I
32:53
think, are not the same.
32:57
No, they're not. But they're all the different group fitness
33:00
classes to choose from, right?
33:00
Yeah.
33:04
So there's the group fitness aspect. You have everything from Hindson City,
33:08
interval training, silver sneakers. Yeah.
33:11
Well, no, that is actually a financial
33:11
program.
33:16
Yeah.
33:17
I thought it was like a club. We always schedule times and people go out.
33:22
Silver sneakers. You can get it through your insurance and it
33:26
can cover gym memberships.
33:30
I thought it was like a club
33:30
you could join that would have shorts.
33:34
Didn't when I worked at La
33:34
Fitness, we would apply people silver sneakers
33:38
to their membership.
33:39
I see. I totally thought it was something different. Okay, then there's water aerobics.
33:47
Yes. You got yoga, yoga,
33:47
Pilates, dance classes.
33:51
Dance classes, aerial arts.
33:54
Aerial arts, okay.
33:58
You got BJJ.
33:59
Yeah. Any martial arts. Martial arts in general.
34:03
And then there's sports. Right. Same people, all the different sports.
34:07
Volleyball, basketball, baseball, football, soccer, bowling.
34:11
Bowling. Bowling and golf.
34:14
Okay. Are those two things?
34:14
I don't think now granted, it's better than
34:18
anything. They are physical, it's better than nothing.
34:20
And if someone is going to do something and
34:20
that's the only thing that they're going to
34:24
do, I would rather have them do that than not
34:24
doing it at all.
34:27
They are hobbies that require
34:27
physical activity.
34:30
But they are not developmental.
34:33
Okay, may I have to explain
34:33
what.
34:35
You mean by that?
34:35
And that's another reason I probably wouldn't
34:39
put sports either. Actually, there are activities.
34:41
We're talking about activities? Yes. Any sport can go in as an activity.
34:47
He just said golf was not a
34:47
sport.
34:49
No, I'm saying not a sport. Golf is a sport.
34:52
I'm saying that would fall into sports as
34:52
activities, not as fitness training.
34:58
Okay, so if we're talking about fitness
34:58
training, it needs to be developmental and
35:02
progressive. It needs to help your body improve and get
35:05
better at living life, at better function,
35:05
improving your metabolic function, all those
35:11
types of things. So doing a sport, in 99% of the cases, the
35:16
sport itself is the end result of training you
35:16
are performing after you've trained.
35:22
Okay, wait, back it up now.
35:24
We're talking about training, right? Because we started talking about exercise.
35:28
What's the difference between exercise and
35:31
training?
35:31
It's a passion of mine.
35:34
Go ahead, you can answer it.
35:34
No, go ahead.
35:35
Okay. Are we going to have the
35:35
same answer?
35:38
Probably.
35:39
So exercise is an activity that
35:39
you do.
35:43
Training is a program you follow.
35:46
Training has a goal you are trying to get from
35:50
point A to point B. Exercise is basically
35:50
something that builds time.
35:54
I love that. So in my keto bikini body, six week.
36:01
Shred. My first ever program, I included a bunch of
36:06
mindset videos, and I talked about the athlete
36:06
mindset, and I said, okay, you're coming into
36:11
this. When you came into this, you were looking for an exercise program or workouts you could do.
36:16
We are no longer calling these workouts.
36:19
We are no longer calling this exercise.
36:21
You are training. This is your training.
36:23
So whenever you talk to me or ask a question
36:26
in the group or whatever, it's going to be
36:26
about your training.
36:29
So to become an athlete and to turn on that
36:29
athlete mentality, you have to consider it
36:35
training. And then I talked about exactly what you just
36:37
talked about. What is the difference and why we focus on it
36:41
as training. There's. Once again, I'm always loving the
36:43
psychosomatic side of things.
36:47
When you look at it as my workouts or this
36:47
exercise that I do, there's less of a
36:52
commitment to that. Right. It's like, if I do it or I don't do it, I
36:54
didn't get my workouts done this week.
36:57
I didn't exercise this week. But when you consider it your training,
37:03
there's a different level of ownership you
37:03
take over that and commitment you take to it.
37:09
Now, not doing your training is not as much of
37:09
an option yes.
37:16
Because it means more you're
37:16
connecting it.
37:19
To your why and to your
37:19
identity.
37:21
Yeah. When you just look at it
37:21
as a workout, then it's just something that's
37:25
on your schedule that you can move.
37:27
Yes.
37:28
And it probably will get moved
37:28
if you look at it as, this is my training.
37:32
That's why when you hear me talk, I talk about
37:32
my training time.
37:36
If you're watching my videos, I'm talking
37:36
about my training.
37:38
This is what I'm doing. It's non negotiable.
37:42
It's going to happen.
37:44
Absolutely. All right, how do they know which one to do?
37:50
Which one to do?
37:51
Okay, let's break up some of
37:51
them into categories.
37:55
Okay, so if you're looking for functional
37:55
fitness, then you're looking for something.
38:01
We could define each of these a little bit. Let's help you figure that out.
38:03
So functional fitness, when we're looking at
38:03
functional fitness, we're looking for a
38:07
program that's going to help your body move in
38:07
as many different ways as possible.
38:11
It's going to help improve more than one
38:11
metabolic pathway.
38:17
So that's some of the differences you're going
38:17
to see.
38:19
These are the three main differences.
38:21
My eyes glass over when he
38:21
talks about the scientific term.
38:23
Yeah. We're going to see the
38:23
main differences between all of these types of
38:29
workouts has to do with how your body moves,
38:29
how your body uses energy, and then how your
38:36
body develops, let's say primarily from a
38:36
straight and muscular perspective, or
38:42
hypertrophy, let's call it. Okay. Because there's a couple of different ways we
38:44
can talk about the different hypertrophies and
38:46
how it works. All right, so a little exercise sciency, how
38:50
your body moves. There's seven different essential movements
38:53
all different ways that our body moves. If you want to be as functional as possible,
38:57
then your program needs to include all seven
38:57
movements, right?
39:00
Pushing, pulling, squatting, hinging, lunging
39:00
carrying, twisting, all those things.
39:07
Functional fitness, like CrossFit, F, 45, less
39:07
miles, those types of things work in all of
39:13
those different movements. Bodybuilding does as well, but it does it
39:19
differently in where it's mostly a lot of
39:19
isolation and muscular focus, not movement
39:25
focused.
39:25
Well, that's the biggest difference. And there's a difference between a functional
39:27
fitness program and a bodybuilding program.
39:33
A bodybuilding program is set up. It's focused purely on aesthetics.
39:38
It is building and shaping, building and
39:38
shaping the body, right?
39:42
So when we program a bodybuilding training
39:42
program, we're looking at splitting up the
39:51
body into different body parts.
39:54
You hear the term body part split.
39:57
What is your split?
39:57
When somebody's asking what is your split?
40:00
You will see workouts that look like chest
40:00
day, leg day, arm day, or push pull legs.
40:11
You'll see that a lot of the time.
40:13
But even I was going to say.
40:16
Even then, the push pull legs
40:16
kind of thing is pushing is typically chest
40:21
and triceps, triceps, back and biceps would be
40:21
a pull day, things like that.
40:27
So we're usually splitting into body and we're
40:27
programming based on body parts that we're
40:32
trying to grow.
40:33
Yeah, the difference from a
40:33
functional perspective is we're looking at
40:36
movements. So it's more like most of the movements, if
40:41
not all of the movements in a functional
40:41
fitness program are going to be multi, joint,
40:45
multi, full body type stuff, clean and jerks,
40:45
deadlifts, squats, burpees, like things that
40:52
are moving your whole body all of the time and
40:52
focusing on you're still going to build muscle
40:57
because there's still resistance and things like that. But it's a different type of focus and it's
40:59
not necessarily body part specific because
41:05
you're doing some part of all of your body
41:05
every time you go in and do it.
41:09
So there's some differences there. The other difference we talk about metabolic
41:14
pathways is when you're doing functional
41:14
fitness, you're going to do some stuff that is
41:18
just strength, some stuff that is five minutes
41:18
long, really high, intense, some stuff that
41:25
maybe 30 or 40 minutes long at a moderate to
41:25
low intensity.
41:28
So you're getting all the different types of
41:28
fuels and ways your body accesses energy.
41:33
In a bodybuilding with
41:33
bodybuilding, what's interesting is we really
41:37
compartmentalize cardio and lifting.
41:41
So your training program is going to be
41:43
usually pure lifting and it may incorporate
41:43
some cardio aspects.
41:49
Let's say you're a bikini competitor and you
41:49
have circuit training in there.
41:53
So now you're doing multiple, it's still a
41:53
body part split, but you might be doing arms,
42:01
chest, chest buys and tries and shoulders or
42:01
something all in a circuit.
42:07
And you do like four or five exercises in a
42:07
row and then you do the circuit multiple
42:12
times. That may be a more cardio intensive type of
42:19
bodybuilding, but your bodybuilding, your
42:19
lifting weights in that session, typically our
42:25
cardio is separated. So we will be doing either low intensity,
42:29
steady state cardiology workout or later in
42:29
the day, where we're talking about maintaining
42:35
our heart rate at a certain level for 30, 45
42:35
minutes, an hour.
42:40
Or we do high intensity interval training like
42:40
sprinting or sprint intervals or on a bike or
42:49
something that's pure cardio separate from our
42:49
listening session, usually different.
42:54
Times of the day or separate.
42:59
Those are some of the differences. Now, these are the two main things that we're
43:00
talking about, functional fitness and
43:04
bodybuilding. If you want to throw in can.
43:06
I call this bodybuilding?
43:06
Versus.
43:10
If you want to throw in another
43:10
modality of power lifting, it's similar to
43:16
bodybuilding, but it's different.
43:19
And it's also similar to functional fitness,
43:22
but it's different. So we talked about powerlifting that is
43:26
specifically designed to get you as strong as
43:26
freaking possible.
43:30
And really, there's three main things that
43:30
you're doing.
43:33
As strong as a squat as you can get, as strong
43:33
a deadlift as you can get, and as strong as a
43:37
bench press as you can get. Three main lifts when you throw power lifting
43:43
into the mix. Now, what we're doing is we're kind of combining the isolation or the splits of
43:45
bodybuilding, but focused on strength
43:52
development, not aesthetics.
43:55
And I saw a great TikTok on
43:55
this, too, where they talked about power
43:59
lifters. Don't talk about chess day.
44:02
Correct.
44:05
It's bench day.
44:07
It's bench day.
44:08
Right. So they're going to talk about it differently. They're going to talk about it as the lift,
44:10
the main lift.
44:13
They may be doing some isolation movements on
44:13
that day.
44:17
They may be strengthening that whole muscle,
44:17
but they're not going to call it back day.
44:24
Exactly.
44:24
Right. They're not going to call it buys and tries or
44:27
whatever. They're going to call it Bench day, deadlift
44:31
day, squat day.
44:32
Exactly. And that's a great analogy or observation of
44:37
the difference in mindset. Right. You talk to a bodybuilder.
44:41
I work biceps today. I work chest today.
44:43
I did quads, I did interior chain, I did posterior chain.
44:46
I did whatever it is, it's all.
44:47
About describing where in the
44:47
body they.
44:49
Were, where in the body they work. And that's really good. I like that.
44:52
That's huge. Okay. Yeah. For power lifters, I'm benching today.
44:56
Okay, now, you know what, they may not even
44:56
bench that day.
44:59
They may do flies, they may do dumbbell bench.
45:03
They may not do barbecues that are supporting
45:05
bench. Supporting their bench press. Yes, it's all things that are supporting
45:07
bench. So it's kind of cool.
45:10
I like that. I don't think I've ever noticed that before.
45:13
Right?
45:13
It is kind of cool. Okay.
45:15
And CrossFit, they're not going
45:15
to tell you what day it is because they may
45:20
not even know. They may get to the gym. And it's the wad brush.
45:24
They talk about what was the
45:24
workout, right?
45:28
This is the workout that we did today. And then they just go through all the stuff
45:31
that they did and you're halfway through. You're like, I lost you at what you're saying?
45:36
I lost you at wall ball.
45:40
Okay, so where was it?
45:40
So powerlifting so powerlifting has spoken
45:44
specific on building strength. So some of the differences we'll just say
45:49
compare between bodybuilders and power lifters. You get into a power lifter, may do bench
45:51
press workout, and they're going to do three
45:58
sets of 15 reps in their bench.
46:00
Where we're talking about rep
46:00
ranges and volume.
46:04
Yeah. And the difference is in
46:04
how you build muscle.
46:06
Where a power lifter may do a set of bench
46:06
press workout and they may do eight sets of
46:14
two reps, right?
46:15
Very different.
46:16
Very different. So they're getting a lot of volume in, but
46:21
it's very different. Where the body builder is working to max
46:25
effort and trying to get as many reps as
46:25
possible at that weight and just completely
46:30
tax out their muscles. The power lifter is trying to work on
46:36
executing their reps with as much speed and
46:36
power as possible, with enough stimulus to
46:43
develop the central nervous system aspect of
46:43
the lift to be able to increase, to be able to
46:48
increase the weight. Because it's about the central nervous system,
46:51
not necessarily about the muscle.
46:54
It is, and it's going to help them get stronger. And there is a muscular hypertrophy aspect,
46:59
but it's a lot more about the sense of nervous
46:59
system, which a lot of people don't realize.
47:02
And I think that will be a
47:02
topic for another day too.
47:05
We could call that episode. You can do more than you think you can.
47:08
Oh my God. We talked about that today.
47:10
We did.
47:10
Oh my God. Yeah. Okay, so there's some differences there.
47:15
And then on top of the difference in
47:15
bodybuilders are working physiology.
47:20
Power lifters are often working much more
47:20
central nervous system than people realize.
47:24
So here's a good question that
47:24
we hear a lot, right?
47:28
How many reps should I be doing to get to my
47:28
goal?
47:33
Or what's a good program should I be doing?
47:33
Three sets of ten?
47:38
Everybody just wants the answer, right?
47:38
Like, what's the best way to do this?
47:44
And once again, we would have to ask you what
47:44
is your goal first and foremost, right?
47:51
What experience do you have?
47:51
How long have you been training?
47:53
What have you been doing?
47:53
All the same things.
47:55
I would say power lifters are a
47:55
special group of people who know who they are.
48:01
If you are a powerlifter, you're probably not
48:01
even listening to us, to be quite frank.
48:08
You're not going to ask what program you
48:08
should be doing.
48:11
You probably already have your program.
48:14
You have a coach, you're
48:14
following somebody, right?
48:16
You're working toward that.
48:17
Well, but unless you're new and
48:17
you don't know, I mean, we do have people who
48:20
are just getting into bodybuilding who follow
48:20
you and do stuff.
48:23
There could be people who are interested in
48:23
paralleling and don't know exactly what to do.
48:27
So there's some things and you can help on the
48:27
body building side, I can help on the
48:32
powerlifting side, we.
48:34
Can do short thing I know we
48:34
wanted to say was, if you're looking for if
48:41
you're specifically like, you know, okay, you
48:41
know what?
48:43
I think I want to get into powerlifting.
48:45
Go and find yourself a powerlifting coach.
48:49
Yes.
48:50
Don't go work with a
48:50
bodybuilding coach or a CrossFit coach or a
48:55
functional fitness professional to become a
48:55
better power lifter.
49:01
So these are the kinds of things where you
49:01
need to find a professional who's skilled in
49:07
what you are trying to do. Right.
49:10
If you're a basketball player and you're
49:10
trying to get better at basketball, you're not
49:14
going to go to a football coach, right?
49:18
No, I would hope not. And that also goes for, I think, more
49:22
prevalent. Prevalent? Which one is it?
49:25
Prevalent.
49:26
Prevalent. The more prevalent issue with that and the
49:33
applicability of context is where you're
49:33
getting your information online.
49:36
Right.
49:36
And this is part of what went
49:36
into our discussion of why we wanted to have
49:40
this topic is because we see people all the
49:40
time who, like we were saying on Tick dock,
49:45
there's tons of people that have good
49:45
information and tons of people that bad
49:47
information.
49:48
You have to consider who are
49:48
they.
49:51
Who are they, all of them and.
49:53
Who are they talking to?
49:54
And who are they talking to?
49:54
So if you see somebody on there saying, here's
49:57
how you do a squat, or here's how you do it,
49:57
the most common one I see is bench presses
50:02
because there's 8 million different ways to bench press.
50:04
Oh my gosh.
50:05
The arch, right? The arch. No arch, hand placement, elbow movement.
50:09
Should I where does it start?
50:11
Do I need a lifting bag?
50:13
That's a whole other equipment.
50:15
So when you see someone who's giving an
50:18
example of how to do a movement, understand
50:18
where that's coming from.
50:22
Because a power lifter is very likely going to
50:22
teach a movement differently than a
50:28
bodybuilder, absolutely differently than a
50:28
CrossFit or functional fitness coach.
50:33
Oh my God.
50:33
Physical therapist. A physical therapist. There's tons of great physical therapists on
50:35
the talk movement and some of the stuff
50:38
they're talking about, a bodybuilder would
50:38
never do.
50:41
That's so true.
50:42
And this is a physical
50:42
therapist, somebody who specializes and has
50:46
years of training and degrees in how the body
50:46
moves.
50:49
A bodybuilder is going to look at that like,
50:49
there's no way I can do that because it's not
50:52
going to activate this very one specific
50:52
muscle in the back corner right on my right
50:56
trap that I'm trying to activate.
50:58
Well, and also, look at this.
51:01
What we get so much is about people with their
51:03
injuries, right. A lot of the time, just like when, look, I'm a
51:08
nutritional coach, I'm a bodybuilding coach, a
51:08
body transformation coach.
51:13
Right. But I'm not a doctor, and I'm not a physical
51:17
therapist. I'm not a chiropractor. So when you're coming to me and talking about
51:19
your injuries, yes, I want to know about your
51:22
injuries, because I don't want to be giving
51:22
you a program that could be aggravating them
51:27
that I don't even know you have that. So you do need to tell me about your injuries,
51:32
but most of the time, I'm going to tell you,
51:32
okay, if you're getting a lot of pain, if this
51:38
is what you're going you need to go see a
51:38
medical professional.
51:42
Go talk to a physical therapist, go talk to a
51:42
chiropractor, go to a medical doctor, and find
51:49
out what's happening with your physiology.
51:52
Just like if you tell me about all of your
51:55
medical conditions, absolutely.
51:57
I need to know about your medical conditions
52:00
for nutritional therapy, for your nutrition
52:00
program.
52:04
But I'm not going to tell you how to cure your
52:04
medical condition.
52:08
I'm going to ask that you, first of all, make
52:08
sure that your doctor knows what we're doing.
52:13
You're keeping your doctor in the loop, but
52:13
when you're having all kinds of symptoms and
52:18
you're dealing with a medical issue, then I'm
52:18
also going to tell you to go get advice from
52:22
your.
52:22
Doctor and understand that the
52:22
advice you get from somebody is going to be
52:26
based on their goals but their expertise.
52:30
So if you have someone who's only an expert in
52:33
A and your goal is B, you might want to look
52:33
for someone who's got some expertise in B.
52:39
And it's important to have a team.
52:41
Of professionals, and that's
52:41
kind of where I was going.
52:44
There are some of us out there, some of us out
52:44
there who have expertise in A-B-C or D that
52:51
can help you in multiple different scenarios.
52:54
So you don't think that everyone is just one
52:57
thing. Some of us have years of experience doing a
53:00
lot of different things.
53:01
Right.
53:01
And if we don't have expertise,
53:01
like, for instance, I'll do myself.
53:06
I have expertise in ABC or D. Okay, well,
53:06
let's get specific.
53:09
I'm a CrossFit coach. I'm a powerlifting coach. I'm a weightlifting coach.
53:13
I'm a functional movement specialist.
53:15
I'm a kettlebell coach. I've got a handful of things that I can coach
53:18
you in. Okay? I can work on all sorts of goals nutrition,
53:19
mindset, behavior change specialist, all these
53:24
things. If you have an eating disorder, I can't help
53:29
you, but I know people who can.
53:32
If you have food addiction issues, I can help
53:36
you some, but I'm not a food addiction
53:36
specialist.
53:40
If you have a health like, you're saying, a
53:40
medical issue.
53:43
If you have autoimmune and you're like, I need
53:43
to cure this today, I can't help you.
53:49
I can help you fix your metabolism, which is
53:49
going to help that.
53:52
But if you need some specific stuff for that,
53:52
I can't help you.
53:55
But I know people who can. So that's another aspect of when you're
53:59
looking for someone to work with or following
53:59
a program or getting information from
54:03
somebody, not only what expertise do they
54:03
have, but how big is their network and what
54:08
can they put you into absolutely.
54:11
To get the help that you need.
54:12
There's nothing wrong with having a team. There's a difference between having a team of
54:14
professionals and then having five different
54:19
of the same type of professional that you're
54:19
going to and getting conflicting advice and
54:25
now being confused. So if you are going to work with a coach, work
54:30
with that one. Once you decide to work with a coach, work
54:32
with that coach. Now, that doesn't mean that you shouldn't have
54:35
a doctor and you shouldn't have like, let's be
54:35
logical about this.
54:41
Right. But at the same time, what I ask my clients to
54:44
do once we start working together is stop
54:44
listening to every single voice out there in
54:50
nutrition trying to tell you all these
54:50
different things when you've been given a
54:55
specific program already. And the same thing goes with fitness.
54:59
If you're going to a coach, if I've already
54:59
written your program, and then you're out
55:04
there on the Internet looking at all of these
55:04
different exercise programs, and you're like,
55:08
well, should I try this or should I try that?
55:08
You've been given a custom program for you.
55:15
Give that a chance.
55:17
Or you have a program that you've used. I get this a lot.
55:20
People do the challenge. My ten week challenge will do other programs
55:21
to work with me for a couple of months, and
55:25
they'll do the program and have amazing
55:25
results.
55:27
And then when they end working with me, for
55:27
whatever reason, the challenge is over.
55:32
Their time that they work with me is over,
55:32
something will happen, whatever.
55:37
And then it's like, now what do I do?
55:37
It's like, well, my programs are still
55:41
accessible whether you're working or one, you
55:41
were doing it and it was working.
55:46
Right.
55:47
Why are you looking for something new now? Just because.
55:50
It just that's a great okay, so
55:50
that's a great thread.
55:53
Part of this questioning what you should be
55:53
doing, the great answer is, well, if what
55:59
you're doing is working for your goal, you
55:59
don't need to change it.
56:03
Yes.
56:04
And if you're changing it just
56:04
because maybe you got bored with it right
56:08
then, oh boy. We've talked about this as it relates to
56:11
nutrition before.
56:12
Success is boring. Success is boring.
56:16
Usually it's the boring work
56:16
that's going to get you to where you want to
56:20
be. If you are not enjoying what you're doing
56:27
anymore, then I think you need to sit down and
56:27
do a little digging, a little soul searching.
56:32
Like, if you're not happy in your marriage
56:32
anymore, what would you do?
56:37
Go look for another partner?
56:39
Bingo.
56:39
Immediately?
56:39
Or would you sit down and say, okay, let's
56:43
figure out why I'm not happy in my situation
56:43
anymore.
56:46
And see what's going on with me. Maybe there's something in the relationship
56:49
that needs to be fixed. Same thing with your fitness program.
56:52
If you've lost the love for your fitness
56:52
program, identify within yourself what's going
56:59
on with you. I know for me, with bodybuilding, after a long
57:04
prep and I've been on this program, my program
57:04
right now, my training program has not changed
57:09
since I started with my new coach. I've had the exact same training program
57:14
almost all year. I think it was maybe April that I hired him.
57:19
I mean, the workouts have not a single
57:19
exercise has changed.
57:24
I switch up the equipment from time to time
57:24
because I work out of a commercial gym and I
57:31
can't always get what I need in there.
57:33
Purple people eater.
57:36
That purple place that shall
57:36
not be mentioned.
57:39
We do not want a sponsorship from them.
57:41
No, not at all.
57:44
There's a little tip there. If you are getting bored with dumbbells and
57:49
you've been doing nothing but dumbbells, like
57:49
try a kettlebell, try cables, you could try a
57:56
different equipment, but do the exact same
57:56
exercise and branch out and learn some
58:01
different things.
58:01
Yeah, there are ways to make a
58:01
program.
58:03
If you feel like the program, you're just
58:03
getting tired of doing the same program, there
58:07
are ways to make it to switch things up and
58:07
add some variety.
58:10
But if the program is working, I don't
58:10
understand why you don't need to reinvent the
58:14
wheel.
58:16
And here's another great example. I now have added cardio because I'm nine weeks
58:18
out and we're getting close, but I'm loving it
58:24
because it's less, it's low intensity, steady
58:24
state.
58:27
So yesterday I went outside and took a walk
58:27
outside and talked to my mom on the phone
58:33
while I was out there. And it was so therapeutic, it was beautiful,
58:36
it was just what I needed. I love being outside.
58:40
So for me, and I know many of you are the
58:40
same, you don't like being inside a gym,
58:46
right?
58:46
So if you're a bodybuilder and your main goal
58:49
is aesthetics, you're going to have to be in
58:49
the gym.
58:52
So either you can start building your home gym
58:52
out of your garage to have some of that, open
58:57
things up a little bit, do some things
58:57
outside.
59:01
If you can add some things and some activities
59:01
that are not a part of your training
59:07
activities or hobbies that you enjoy that will
59:07
give you that variety you might be looking for
59:14
and you can still stay consistent with your
59:14
training.
59:17
And honestly, this is just the
59:17
truth of the matter, guys, is if you're
59:22
chasing excitement in your workouts, then your
59:22
goal is off.
59:29
Just like if you're chasing
59:29
excitement from your food.
59:34
The work isn't supposed to be
59:34
exciting.
59:36
It's called work for a reason, okay?
59:36
The results in living the life that you want
59:42
from doing the work is where you get your
59:42
excitement and your satisfaction from it's.
59:46
Just like anything. Else in life. Sometimes our work life is very satisfying and
59:48
motivating and exciting.
59:54
Other times we just got to do what we got to
59:54
do to pay the bills.
59:58
And I'm not saying that it's
59:58
always going to be drudgery, because it's not.
1:00:03
No.
1:00:04
There are many times when you
1:00:04
go to the gym and while you're working out,
1:00:07
you're like, I feel like a freaking monster
1:00:07
right now.
1:00:10
Or you may not feel like that when you're
1:00:10
there and when you're working out, but when
1:00:14
you start walking to your car and you get
1:00:14
home, you just feel so freaking good.
1:00:18
So there are aspects of the work that are good
1:00:18
and beneficial and emotionally satisfying.
1:00:25
Babe, have you seen the TikTok?
1:00:25
I think it's TikTok or YouTube.
1:00:30
You don't watch a lot of TikTok.
1:00:33
About the rule of thirds.
1:00:35
Yes, we talked about that.
1:00:37
Oh, my God, I saw that one
1:00:37
again yesterday and it resonated what you're
1:00:40
just saying here. This is what we're talking about.
1:00:43
It was an athlete talking about the rule of
1:00:43
thirds, and it was one of her coaches and what
1:00:47
her coach told her, and he said she's like,
1:00:47
what's the rule of thirds?
1:00:52
He said you should feel great, amazing a third
1:00:52
of the time, okay?
1:00:58
A third of the time and shitty a third of the
1:00:58
time.
1:01:02
And if any of those get out of whack and it's
1:01:02
all one way for too long or all another way
1:01:08
for too long, something is wrong.
1:01:11
You got to look at that. When it's right, we're always like, well,
1:01:14
what's right for me?
1:01:18
When it's right, there will be times you're
1:01:18
not going to feel great about it because it's
1:01:23
going to be challenging you or you may be
1:01:23
really tired of struggling.
1:01:28
Convenience kills guys. Don't go for convenience.
1:01:31
Yes. Well, and think about it. What is a good training program going to do
1:01:36
for you?
1:01:36
It should be challenging you.
1:01:38
It should be moving you to new levels. So there's going to be times where you're
1:01:42
hitting PR and you're feeling really amazing
1:01:42
about yourself and your confidence is through
1:01:46
the roof. There are going to be times where you're not
1:01:48
progressing, you're just barely getting it
1:01:48
done.
1:01:52
Okay, this is a great segue to
1:01:52
the other thing we said we want to talk about
1:01:56
here, and that is the mental game of
1:01:56
understanding where you are and working from
1:02:01
there.
1:02:01
Okay.
1:02:02
There's going to be times like
1:02:02
she was just saying, there's going to be times
1:02:05
where you're working and you're not seeing the
1:02:05
progress and you're like, struggling.
1:02:08
This is hard and I don't like this. And why can't I not do X, Y, or Z or I just go
1:02:13
week today or whatever it may be?
1:02:13
And you got to understand that development
1:02:18
takes time. Those times are the times that are actually
1:02:22
making you better.
1:02:24
Yes.
1:02:25
And you need to embrace the
1:02:25
suck, literally, and move through it, because
1:02:30
before you when you're feeling that crappy
1:02:30
time.
1:02:34
That 30% or 33%, a third, whatever you want to
1:02:34
call it.
1:02:38
That crappiness. That means the really cool stuff is right on
1:02:41
the other side.
1:02:42
Yeah. That is where and I said
1:02:42
this to a client the other day, I was like, oh
1:02:46
my gosh, imagine how proud of yourself you're
1:02:46
going to feel when you get to the other side
1:02:50
of this thing and you conquered it.
1:02:53
Right. We see this all the time.
1:02:56
People who have been doing the same exercises
1:02:58
over and over again because those are the
1:02:58
exercises they feel good doing.
1:03:02
And they're probably also doing the same
1:03:02
weight.
1:03:05
They're not increasing any weight. They're not increasing reps.
1:03:07
They're not doing anything. It's just you've been doing these three sets
1:03:10
of ten bicep curls with £10 for the last three
1:03:10
years because that feels easy to you, it's
1:03:18
comfortable to you.
1:03:18
Are you doing something?
1:03:19
I know how to do it. I feel good about doing it.
1:03:23
But you hate lunges and you never do lunges
1:03:23
because they don't feel comfortable to you and
1:03:29
they're annoying and your balance is off and
1:03:29
you feel like you can't do it.
1:03:35
And let's be real, that sucks.
1:03:37
I don't like feeling like I'm not good at something.
1:03:40
Right. But those things I'm not good at are the
1:03:41
things I need to do that are going to make me
1:03:45
capable. And then when I can start to do them and
1:03:50
actually do them well, and now they start to
1:03:50
feel easy, I feel amazing.
1:03:55
And that's where that amazing 30% or one third
1:03:55
happens.
1:03:59
Yeah, absolutely.
1:04:02
So don't avoid difficult
1:04:02
things.
1:04:05
Don't avoid things that don't feel good to
1:04:05
you.
1:04:07
You know, the best way to keep
1:04:07
from avoiding stuff is to hire a coach and get
1:04:15
a program that tells you what to do.
1:04:17
Yes.
1:04:18
If you are trying to do it on
1:04:18
your own, you're figuring out googling, what
1:04:24
workouts are best for my arms, or what
1:04:24
workouts are best for this, or what's the best
1:04:29
full body, you're going to miss things, number
1:04:29
one.
1:04:32
Number two, it's not going to be progressive
1:04:32
because it's not designed in a way to help you
1:04:36
improve overall. It's just a random workout you found on the
1:04:38
internet or saw some influencer do on social
1:04:38
media.
1:04:42
So getting a coach or following a program that
1:04:42
has a coach available or something is
1:04:48
definitely a way to help, again, control your
1:04:48
environment, control the input you have into
1:04:54
what you're doing so that you know it's going
1:04:54
to get you to your goal a lot faster.
1:04:58
And then guess what else?
1:04:58
Instead of being on your own to try to figure
1:05:03
it out when you're confused. Or you can't do a movement, right, which is
1:05:07
usually why you're not going to do the
1:05:07
movement.
1:05:10
If you have a coach who wrote a program for
1:05:10
you and you're struggling with something they
1:05:14
wrote for you, you can reach out to your coach
1:05:14
and say, hey, I really can't get this.
1:05:19
What am I doing wrong?
1:05:19
Or how can I improve this?
1:05:22
And your coach can then give you specific
1:05:22
personal feedback about how you can improve on
1:05:27
that.
1:05:28
Right. And that's something that you need to understand, especially if you're new and
1:05:29
you're not getting started or just getting
1:05:34
started. Excuse me. Or like we talked about before we started
1:05:36
this, if you've been an athlete before and
1:05:42
you're just coming back into it, it's been
1:05:42
five years, six years, ten years, 20 years
1:05:46
since you did anything physical and you're
1:05:46
starting over.
1:05:50
You need to understand. Come in it with a beginner's.
1:05:52
Mindset clean, wipe the slate clean.
1:05:55
This is where I'm at right now. You cannot compare where you are now to where
1:05:57
you were 20 years ago.
1:06:00
Oh my gosh. You're going to have to let go of that image
1:06:03
of where you are.
1:06:04
Because it's not who you are right now. You can't start today, 20 years after the
1:06:06
fact.
1:06:11
Right?
1:06:11
It's today is today where you are, where you
1:06:15
are.
1:06:16
And then celebrate every
1:06:16
improvement at this point.
1:06:19
Exactly.
1:06:20
And guys, don't sleep on body
1:06:20
weight exercises and bands existence.
1:06:29
And let's talk about scaling
1:06:29
real quick, okay?
1:06:32
Scaling and modifications.
1:06:34
Oh, like progressions.
1:06:35
Progressions. Regressions and progressions.
1:06:39
Okay, I'm glad you said that because a lot of
1:06:39
people think scaling is just going down.
1:06:45
Okay?
1:06:46
But it's not.
1:06:47
No, it's not.
1:06:48
It goes both ways. Progressions and regressions.
1:06:51
First of all, I just want to
1:06:51
clarify that body weight movement does not
1:06:56
mean easy movement.
1:06:58
Hell no.
1:07:02
Just because you don't have
1:07:02
weights in your hand does not make it a
1:07:05
beginners or an easy exercise.
1:07:09
Even with let's say you didn't pick up any
1:07:12
weights for a year and everything, let's say
1:07:12
you don't have access to them.
1:07:15
Right?
1:07:15
A lot of us were in this situation in 2020
1:07:18
when everything was shut down. We couldn't get the gyms.
1:07:21
And if you didn't have equipment, it was like,
1:07:21
good luck finding it because it was bought out
1:07:26
so fast. So you're at home, you don't have access to
1:07:31
any equipment. You just have your body. You could do a whole year long progressive
1:07:33
training program just with body weight, and
1:07:40
you could progress. I had somebody recently asked me this.
1:07:42
Can I reach my goals if I'm not lifting
1:07:42
weights or if I'm not in a gym?
1:07:47
Absolutely.
1:07:48
Sure.
1:07:49
You can get stronger, you can
1:07:49
grow bigger muscles, you can change your body
1:07:53
shape, you can improve your functional
1:07:53
fitness, all with just your body weight.
1:07:58
And there are modifications you can do to
1:07:58
progress yourself without having to pick up
1:08:04
anyways.
1:08:04
Yeah, for sure. When we talk about progressions and
1:08:09
regressions is what the traditional terms are
1:08:09
introduced, I don't know if they introduced
1:08:14
it, but they popularize the idea of scaling,
1:08:14
and it's basically scaling up or down based on
1:08:19
the skill level or physical ability of the
1:08:19
athlete.
1:08:24
So an example is if we look at squatting,
1:08:24
basic squat.
1:08:32
You put weight on your back, and you squat. It's a basic squat.
1:08:35
When we talk about doing it with resistance
1:08:35
training, a regression scale would be no
1:08:42
weight, just your body weight. A further regression from there would be
1:08:46
squatting to a box where you're not completely
1:08:46
standing free in the air.
1:08:52
You have a box to sit, and a box.
1:08:53
Squat is so amazing for getting
1:08:53
the basics of movement.
1:08:57
So that would be a progression
1:08:57
would be maybe a front squat where the bar is
1:09:04
in front of you and your shoulders instead of
1:09:04
on your back.
1:09:06
That is a whole different ballgame or.
1:09:08
An overhead squat or something
1:09:08
like that.
1:09:10
So these are more advanced techniques within
1:09:10
the same movement of squatting.
1:09:15
So the idea is, whatever program you get,
1:09:15
whatever you see, you get from your coach,
1:09:22
whatever else, you have the freedom and the
1:09:22
obligation for your own safety and progression
1:09:29
to take control of that and modify and scale.
1:09:33
If you don't know how, ask your coach the obligation.
1:09:36
That is powerful.
1:09:37
You have an obligation for yourself.
1:09:38
You have to take ownership of
1:09:38
your program.
1:09:41
Absolutely everyone's like,
1:09:41
well, it's an individualized program.
1:09:47
It should be built just for me. Well, guess what?
1:09:49
I don't care how much information you share
1:09:49
with your coach.
1:09:52
Even an individual program is at some point in
1:09:52
time going to have something that you can't do
1:09:57
because of a physical limitation, a lack of
1:09:57
movement, weakness.
1:10:01
Something is going on. So you have to communicate with the coach and
1:10:05
say, hey, I have this limitation. How can we change this to make it work for me?
1:10:10
Oh, my gosh. I have to brag on one of my clients right now.
1:10:13
I'm so thrilled with her. She's the poster child of what I say all the
1:10:17
time, which is, I want you to not need me
1:10:17
anymore.
1:10:21
Like, at the end of our six months together or
1:10:21
one year together, I want you to be able to
1:10:26
move on and do this on your own. And she has just from day one, it's been
1:10:31
difficult for her. She's faced the difficulty.
1:10:33
She's asked me all the questions every step of
1:10:33
the way.
1:10:37
If something was difficult for her, we
1:10:37
modified it.
1:10:41
And then it was like she started to really
1:10:41
figure it out.
1:10:44
And that was the coolest thing, because then
1:10:44
she would be asking, okay, I didn't have
1:10:48
access to this equipment, so I tried this
1:10:48
equipment.
1:10:50
Was this the right way to do it?
1:10:52
Yeah.
1:10:52
Instead of just coming to me
1:10:52
and asking me first, she tried it on her own.
1:10:56
And she asked me, and I was like, yes, you did
1:10:56
that perfectly.
1:10:59
Love it. And she's like, okay, I want to start being
1:11:02
able to swap out exercises or swap out
1:11:02
equipment when I need to.
1:11:07
I want to be able to continue this after we're
1:11:07
done.
1:11:10
I was like, I'm beaming.
1:11:13
I'm like, yes, she's getting it.
1:11:15
She's taking ownership. She's learning how to program for herself.
1:11:19
It is the coolest thing to see.
1:11:21
Absolutely. Now, if you guys could see the smile on Coach
1:11:23
Nat's face right now when she's talking about
1:11:23
I want you to understand and I think we'll
1:11:27
probably leave with this because we're about
1:11:27
an hour and ten.
1:11:29
We could probably go on for more. But I want everyone to understand that the
1:11:34
reason we're doing this podcast is because we
1:11:34
want you to have information and insight into
1:11:38
how to make all these crazy ideas and methods
1:11:38
and concepts and information work for you.
1:11:44
We want you to learn how to fish so that we
1:11:44
don't have to fish for you, okay?
1:11:50
Both of us, our goal with our clients, whether
1:11:50
you're working one on one with Coach Nat,
1:11:56
working one on one with me, if you're in my
1:11:56
challenge, if you're subscribed to my app,
1:12:00
whatever it may be, we want you to graduate
1:12:00
from us so that you can do this on your own.
1:12:07
Because freedom is not just physical.
1:12:10
Freedom is not just health. But freedom means you can make your own
1:12:13
decisions and know that the decisions you are
1:12:17
making are good for your life.
1:12:20
Okay? We will be here, we will always be here to
1:12:20
help you and give you advice if you need it.
1:12:25
And you call us and ask us and look at our
1:12:25
content and all that kind of stuff.
1:12:28
We're not going anywhere. Okay? But we want you to be able to stand on your
1:12:30
own. 2ft.
1:12:33
Take control of your life and move forward
1:12:35
without us.
1:12:36
Oh, my gosh. I couldn't have said it better, so.
1:12:39
We'Ll end on that. Well, do you got anything else to end with?
1:12:43
I think that's it really summed
1:12:43
it up beautifully.
1:12:47
Own your journey, people. Own your body.
1:12:49
Own your journey.
1:12:50
And make sure you apply the
1:12:50
information you're getting to your life.
1:12:55
Make sure when you apply the information
1:12:55
you're putting into your life, you apply some
1:13:01
context and you understand where it's coming
1:13:01
from and who it's coming from and who it's
1:13:05
meant for.
1:13:06
Oh, and the most important
1:13:06
thing, do something you can't just research.
1:13:16
So please, if you're the person out there
1:13:16
that's just looking at every single exercise
1:13:22
program, you can find out there and comparing
1:13:22
them to each other and then watching ten
1:13:27
different professionals break down how they do
1:13:27
the movement, just try something.
1:13:33
Please. Just try something.
1:13:34
Just go try something. And then if that doesn't work, try in the
1:13:37
water. You can't go wrong if you keep trying.
1:13:41
So if you try something and you're like, I
1:13:41
didn't like that.
1:13:43
Okay, great. Go try something different.
1:13:46
Yeah. And you know what?
1:13:46
I think Coach Bronson said this on another
1:13:48
episode, but if none of this sounds appealing
1:13:48
to you and you're not moving your body right
1:13:55
now, brainstorm a list of activities you enjoy
1:13:55
that require physical movement.
1:14:03
If it's walking outside, if it's doing some
1:14:03
stretching, something.
1:14:09
If it's taking a dance class.
1:14:12
A lot of people start with group fitness
1:14:14
because it's less intimidating to them.
1:14:18
There's a group full of people in the room
1:14:20
doing it with you. There's good upbeat music going on.
1:14:25
And you build a community, you make some
1:14:25
friends, and if you're not doing it right,
1:14:30
nobody notices because there's a packed room
1:14:30
for you.
1:14:33
Everyone's trying to do it right, too right.
1:14:35
It's like do something that
1:14:35
gets you moving to start with.
1:14:39
Yeah. Awesome. All right, guys, take it easy.
1:14:42
We'll see you on the next episode.
1:14:44
See you next time.
1:14:45
Eat, lift, repeat.
1:14:47
Lift, repeat.
