Key Takeaway

Cardio can be effective for fat loss for about 2-3 weeks, then your body adapts and it becomes counterproductive. After 4 weeks, it often leads to muscle loss rather than fat loss. Instead, prioritize strength training to preserve muscle during calorie deficits, and save cardio for when you're close to your aesthetic goals or want to build endurance. The body is an adaptation machine - give it the right signals with resistance training, not just calorie-burning cardio.
Episode Overview

This episode challenges the conventional wisdom about cardio for fat loss. The hosts explain why traditional steady-state cardio becomes ineffective after just a few weeks as your body adapts by becoming more efficient and breaking down muscle tissue. They discuss the metabolic adaptations that occur with prolonged cardio, share real-world examples from trainers and competitors, and explain why strength training is superior for fat loss. The conversation covers how to properly sequence different training modalities, the importance of understanding exercise adaptations versus just calorie burn, and why many people plateau despite doing hours of cardio weekly.
Main Insights

The 3-Week Cardio Window

Cardio provides fat loss benefits for approximately 2-3 weeks. After 4 weeks, the body adapts by becoming more efficient, reducing caloric expenditure from the same activity. This adaptation includes muscle loss, which further slows metabolism and makes continued fat loss extremely difficult.
Muscle Loss During Cardio-Based Fat Loss

When combining cardio with a calorie deficit, approximately 40% of weight loss comes from muscle tissue. This means losing 10 pounds results in 4 pounds of muscle loss, creating a slower metabolism and making long-term results unsustainable. The body becomes more efficient at the expense of metabolic tissue.
Strength Training Preserves Muscle in a Deficit

Strength training directly counters the muscle loss caused by calorie deficits. While cardio may burn more calories during the session, strength training sends signals to maintain or build muscle, leading to better body composition and a higher metabolism even while losing fat.
The Exercise Adaptation Framework

Don't choose exercise based solely on calorie burn - choose based on what adaptations it creates. Ask: 'What does this exercise signal my body to do?' Cardio signals efficiency and endurance. Strength training signals muscle preservation and strength. For fat loss in a deficit, you want the muscle-preserving signal.
Sequence Matters: Aesthetics First, Then Endurance

For clients wanting both fat loss and endurance, prioritize aesthetic goals first through strength training and calorie management. Once you reach your body composition goals, then add cardio for stamina while increasing calories to fuel it. Trying to do both simultaneously means 'robbing Peter to pay Paul' and getting suboptimal results in both areas.
Notable Quotes

"Cardio can be great for fat loss for about two to three weeks. After four weeks, absolute waste of time."

Host
"40% of your body weight loss is muscle, which sucks. You lost 10 pounds, four of it was muscle. And now you're left with a, you know, for lack of a better term, slower metabolism, which makes things a little hard."

Host
"People disregard that we're adaptation machines where your body's going to adjust to that type of a stimulus, especially cardio. If we're just depriving ourselves of this energy, the first signal really is to hold on to that energy and not expend it so frivolously."

Host
"The body learns how to reduce its caloric output and so it pairs muscle down. So it's like 40% of your body weight loss is muscle."

Host
"Make it really clear the best way to view exercise is what kind of physical adaptation does this exercise induce? And that's when I'll use the exercise."

Action Items

Suggested exercises inspired by the conversation.
1
Prioritize Strength Training for Fat Loss
If your primary goal is losing body fat, make strength training your main form of exercise 3-4 days per week for 45 minutes. Focus on compound movements that build or preserve muscle mass while in a calorie deficit. Save cardio for after you've reached your aesthetic goals or limit it to walking and daily movement.
2
Increase Daily Steps Instead of Cardio Sessions
Rather than formal cardio sessions, manage fat loss through increased daily movement like walking. Aim to gradually increase your daily step count while maintaining a modest calorie deficit. This provides movement benefits without triggering the negative metabolic adaptations of prolonged cardio.
3
Time Your Cardio Introduction Strategically
Don't start a fat loss journey with cardio. Begin with strength training and calorie management through diet and increased steps. Only introduce formal cardio when you're 2-3 weeks away from your goal or when you specifically want to build endurance and stamina after achieving your body composition target.
4
Separate Aesthetic and Performance Goals
If you want both fat loss and improved endurance, tackle them sequentially rather than simultaneously. Focus on fat loss first through strength training and diet. Once you reach your aesthetic goal, shift to maintaining that physique while building cardiovascular capacity with proper fueling and recovery.

Uh I the body &gt;&gt; I I mean I strongly agree. Uh I the body &gt;&gt; I I mean I strongly agree. Uh I the body adapts really quickly to energy energy adapts really quickly to energy energy adapts really quickly to energy energy expenditure in that way expenditure in that way expenditure in that way &gt;&gt; about 3 to four weeks. &gt;&gt; about 3 to four weeks. &gt;&gt; about 3 to four weeks. &gt;&gt; Yeah, that's what the data shows, right? &gt;&gt; Yeah, that's what the data shows, right? &gt;&gt; Yeah, that's what the data shows, right? &gt;&gt; And it takes so 8 to 12 you get benefits &gt;&gt; And it takes so 8 to 12 you get benefits &gt;&gt; And it takes so 8 to 12 you get benefits of stamina training. So when we look at of stamina training. So when we look at of stamina training. So when we look at it for if you want to endurance train it for if you want to endurance train it for if you want to endurance train and get better like that makes that's and get better like that makes that's and get better like that makes that's your form of training. your form of training. your form of training. &gt;&gt; That makes sense. &gt;&gt; That makes sense. &gt;&gt; That makes sense. &gt;&gt; But most people are using it uh as a &gt;&gt; But most people are using it uh as a &gt;&gt; But most people are using it uh as a source to reduce body fat. And if that's source to reduce body fat. And if that's source to reduce body fat. And if that's the main goal, the main goal, the main goal, &gt;&gt; you get great benefits for about 2 to 3 &gt;&gt; you get great benefits for about 2 to 3 &gt;&gt; you get great benefits for about 2 to 3 weeks. After that, it sharply declines weeks. After that, it sharply declines weeks. After that, it sharply declines and becomes almost a waste of time and and becomes almost a waste of time and and becomes almost a waste of time and can be counterproductive. can be counterproductive. can be counterproductive. &gt;&gt; Yeah. Well, you know what? You're going &gt;&gt; Yeah. Well, you know what? You're going &gt;&gt; Yeah. Well, you know what? You're going to get a lot of people right now who are to get a lot of people right now who are to get a lot of people right now who are like, "Well, I lost tons of weight uh by like, "Well, I lost tons of weight uh by like, "Well, I lost tons of weight uh by doing lots of running." Um, now usually doing lots of running." Um, now usually doing lots of running." Um, now usually this is in combination with cutting this is in combination with cutting this is in combination with cutting their calories, but what they don't their calories, but what they don't their calories, but what they don't realize, and we've talked about this at realize, and we've talked about this at realize, and we've talked about this at least a thousand times, uh, is that form least a thousand times, uh, is that form least a thousand times, uh, is that form of exercise with a reduction in calories of exercise with a reduction in calories of exercise with a reduction in calories is a recipe for muscle loss. is a recipe for muscle loss. is a recipe for muscle loss. &gt;&gt; That's right. &gt;&gt; That's right. &gt;&gt; That's right. &gt;&gt; It really is. Now, people might ask, why &gt;&gt; It really is. Now, people might ask, why &gt;&gt; It really is. Now, people might ask, why why does cardio or running plus a why does cardio or running plus a why does cardio or running plus a calorie deficit, low, why does that calorie deficit, low, why does that calorie deficit, low, why does that cause muscle loss? Is it that you're cause muscle loss? Is it that you're cause muscle loss? Is it that you're burning the muscle while you're doing burning the muscle while you're doing burning the muscle while you're doing all this exercise? No, that's not what's all this exercise? No, that's not what's all this exercise? No, that's not what's happening. Um, it's actually quite hard happening. Um, it's actually quite hard happening. Um, it's actually quite hard to burn muscle in that way. What's to burn muscle in that way. What's to burn muscle in that way. What's happening is the body has because cardio happening is the body has because cardio happening is the body has because cardio does burn a lot of calories. So, this is does burn a lot of calories. So, this is does burn a lot of calories. So, this is where the this is where people start the where the this is where people start the where the this is where people start the debate, debate, debate, &gt;&gt; especially at the beginning. &gt;&gt; especially at the beginning. &gt;&gt; especially at the beginning. &gt;&gt; Yes. But it it I mean, comparison to &gt;&gt; Yes. But it it I mean, comparison to &gt;&gt; Yes. But it it I mean, comparison to other forms of exercise, it's the other forms of exercise, it's the other forms of exercise, it's the highest calorie burn. But what happens highest calorie burn. But what happens highest calorie burn. But what happens when you're burning lots of calories and when you're burning lots of calories and when you're burning lots of calories and you're cutting your calories and the you're cutting your calories and the you're cutting your calories and the form of exercise that you're doing is form of exercise that you're doing is form of exercise that you're doing is not telling your body we need strength not telling your body we need strength not telling your body we need strength and muscle. The body learns how to and muscle. The body learns how to and muscle. The body learns how to reduce its caloric output. reduce its caloric output. reduce its caloric output. &gt;&gt; Needs to be more efficient &gt;&gt; Needs to be more efficient &gt;&gt; Needs to be more efficient &gt;&gt; and and so it pairs muscle down. So it's &gt;&gt; and and so it pairs muscle down. So it's &gt;&gt; and and so it pairs muscle down. So it's like 40% uh of your of your body weight like 40% uh of your of your body weight like 40% uh of your of your body weight loss is muscle, which sucks. You lost 10 loss is muscle, which sucks. You lost 10 loss is muscle, which sucks. You lost 10 pounds, four of it uh was muscle. And pounds, four of it uh was muscle. And pounds, four of it uh was muscle. And now you're left with a, you know, for now you're left with a, you know, for now you're left with a, you know, for lack of a better term, slower lack of a better term, slower lack of a better term, slower metabolism, which makes things a little metabolism, which makes things a little metabolism, which makes things a little hard. hard. hard. &gt;&gt; People disregard that we're adaptation &gt;&gt; People disregard that we're adaptation &gt;&gt; People disregard that we're adaptation machines where your body's going to machines where your body's going to machines where your body's going to adjust uh to that type of a stimulus, adjust uh to that type of a stimulus, adjust uh to that type of a stimulus, especially cardio, uh those type of especially cardio, uh those type of especially cardio, uh those type of demands. Like we it it like if we're demands. Like we it it like if we're demands. Like we it it like if we're just like depriving ourselves of this just like depriving ourselves of this just like depriving ourselves of this energy, like the first signal really is energy, like the first signal really is energy, like the first signal really is to like hold on to that energy and and to like hold on to that energy and and to like hold on to that energy and and not expend it so uh frivolously. So, not expend it so uh frivolously. So, not expend it so uh frivolously. So, it's it's if you think of that in that it's it's if you think of that in that it's it's if you think of that in that lens, it kind of makes sense why at a lens, it kind of makes sense why at a lens, it kind of makes sense why at a certain point you kind of hit that hard certain point you kind of hit that hard certain point you kind of hit that hard plateau. This is how I I would tell plateau. This is how I I would tell plateau. This is how I I would tell competitors if they if you had a good competitors if they if you had a good competitors if they if you had a good coach or not. Um coach or not. Um coach or not. Um it's so common in the space that these it's so common in the space that these it's so common in the space that these competitive coaches put their athletes, competitive coaches put their athletes, competitive coaches put their athletes, their competitors on cardio 12 weeks out their competitors on cardio 12 weeks out their competitors on cardio 12 weeks out from a show. from a show. from a show. &gt;&gt; Yeah. &gt;&gt; Yeah. &gt;&gt; Yeah. &gt;&gt; Yeah. &gt;&gt; Yeah. &gt;&gt; Yeah. &gt;&gt; And I would tell them that's that's a &gt;&gt; And I would tell them that's that's a &gt;&gt; And I would tell them that's that's a terrible strategy. We are far better off terrible strategy. We are far better off terrible strategy. We are far better off uh manipulating it with calories and uh manipulating it with calories and uh manipulating it with calories and just regular activity like movement just regular activity like movement just regular activity like movement walking around until we get to those walking around until we get to those walking around until we get to those final couple weeks where we would start final couple weeks where we would start final couple weeks where we would start to ramp up the cardio just before and to ramp up the cardio just before and to ramp up the cardio just before and then and then it's so new. It's a new then and then it's so new. It's a new then and then it's so new. It's a new stimulus to the body that it responds stimulus to the body that it responds stimulus to the body that it responds really well for those two to three really well for those two to three really well for those two to three weeks. Then after that, to your point, weeks. Then after that, to your point, weeks. Then after that, to your point, it it gets it adapts. It gets becomes it it gets it adapts. It gets becomes it it gets it adapts. It gets becomes efficient and then stamina building efficient and then stamina building efficient and then stamina building happens. But part of part of what's happens. But part of part of what's happens. But part of part of what's happening when you start to build happening when you start to build happening when you start to build stamina, endurance, and you get good at stamina, endurance, and you get good at stamina, endurance, and you get good at it is the body's becoming more efficient it is the body's becoming more efficient it is the body's becoming more efficient at it, which is saying, "Hey, we don't at it, which is saying, "Hey, we don't at it, which is saying, "Hey, we don't need all this muscle to do all this need all this muscle to do all this need all this muscle to do all this running that the body's asking us to do. running that the body's asking us to do. running that the body's asking us to do. Let's get rid of some of this muscle Let's get rid of some of this muscle Let's get rid of some of this muscle because it's not efficient to have." because it's not efficient to have." because it's not efficient to have." &gt;&gt; By the way, just to be clear before &gt;&gt; By the way, just to be clear before &gt;&gt; By the way, just to be clear before anybody gets up in arms, like uh it's a anybody gets up in arms, like uh it's a anybody gets up in arms, like uh it's a form of exercise done properly, it's form of exercise done properly, it's form of exercise done properly, it's healthy. So, we're not saying it's not healthy. So, we're not saying it's not healthy. So, we're not saying it's not healthy. We're not saying it's not a healthy. We're not saying it's not a healthy. We're not saying it's not a good form of exercise if you want to good form of exercise if you want to good form of exercise if you want to improve stamina and endurance. We're not improve stamina and endurance. We're not improve stamina and endurance. We're not saying don't ever do cardio. What we're saying don't ever do cardio. What we're saying don't ever do cardio. What we're talking about here is fat loss. talking about here is fat loss. talking about here is fat loss. &gt;&gt; And it's a terrible strategy. &gt;&gt; And it's a terrible strategy. &gt;&gt; And it's a terrible strategy. &gt;&gt; By the way, the there are great studies &gt;&gt; By the way, the there are great studies &gt;&gt; By the way, the there are great studies that compare strength training to cardio that compare strength training to cardio that compare strength training to cardio for weight loss. Weight loss, cardio for weight loss. Weight loss, cardio for weight loss. Weight loss, cardio wins. Fat loss, strength training wins. wins. Fat loss, strength training wins. wins. Fat loss, strength training wins. What do I mean by that? Cardio in a What do I mean by that? Cardio in a What do I mean by that? Cardio in a weight loss protocol or a fat loss weight loss protocol or a fat loss weight loss protocol or a fat loss protocol induces muscle loss. It does protocol induces muscle loss. It does protocol induces muscle loss. It does enhance, it actually creates more muscle enhance, it actually creates more muscle enhance, it actually creates more muscle loss uh almost like or maybe even worse loss uh almost like or maybe even worse loss uh almost like or maybe even worse than just a pure calorie deficit. than just a pure calorie deficit. than just a pure calorie deficit. Whereas strength training uh preserves Whereas strength training uh preserves Whereas strength training uh preserves muscle and in some cases uh if the muscle and in some cases uh if the muscle and in some cases uh if the calorie deficit is not too big um and calorie deficit is not too big um and calorie deficit is not too big um and you have high protein you you'll see you have high protein you you'll see you have high protein you you'll see some muscle building uh through this some muscle building uh through this some muscle building uh through this process. So for a as far as fat loss is process. So for a as far as fat loss is process. So for a as far as fat loss is concerned it's really a terrible concerned it's really a terrible concerned it's really a terrible approach. Now if you use cardio as a way approach. Now if you use cardio as a way approach. Now if you use cardio as a way to improve your health and you want more to improve your health and you want more to improve your health and you want more endurance or more stamina great go for endurance or more stamina great go for endurance or more stamina great go for it. But if your number one goal is like it. But if your number one goal is like it. But if your number one goal is like I want to lose body fat uh you're better I want to lose body fat uh you're better I want to lose body fat uh you're better off doing other forms of exercise in off doing other forms of exercise in off doing other forms of exercise in particular strength training. Um and particular strength training. Um and particular strength training. Um and then the and then and then the diet. then the and then and then the diet. then the and then and then the diet. &gt;&gt; This is why I always like to introduce &gt;&gt; This is why I always like to introduce &gt;&gt; This is why I always like to introduce normal person, not just talking about normal person, not just talking about normal person, not just talking about competitors. Uh introduce cardio after competitors. Uh introduce cardio after competitors. Uh introduce cardio after my client has achieved their aesthetic my client has achieved their aesthetic my client has achieved their aesthetic goal. goal. goal. &gt;&gt; Yeah. &gt;&gt; Yeah. &gt;&gt; Yeah. &gt;&gt; So if a client came to me and they had a &gt;&gt; So if a client came to me and they had a &gt;&gt; So if a client came to me and they had a bunch of body fat they wanted to lose, bunch of body fat they wanted to lose, bunch of body fat they wanted to lose, cardio was not a part of the protocol cardio was not a part of the protocol cardio was not a part of the protocol until we got closer to basically where until we got closer to basically where until we got closer to basically where they wanted to be. And then it would be they wanted to be. And then it would be they wanted to be. And then it would be to either one sharpen up a tiny bit or to either one sharpen up a tiny bit or to either one sharpen up a tiny bit or because they're like, "Hey, I want more because they're like, "Hey, I want more because they're like, "Hey, I want more endurance, more stamina.

Now let's bump your calories and let's Now let's bump your calories and let's Now let's bump your calories and let's introduce cardio. So now you're more fed introduce cardio. So now you're more fed introduce cardio. So now you're more fed and you get to build some stamina and and you get to build some stamina and and you get to build some stamina and you have the body you want. It's not you have the body you want. It's not you have the body you want. It's not something that I would use as a tool something that I would use as a tool something that I would use as a tool just to get the body fat off. It's a just to get the body fat off. It's a just to get the body fat off. It's a terrible strategy to do that because now terrible strategy to do that because now terrible strategy to do that because now if I did it that way, by the way, too, if I did it that way, by the way, too, if I did it that way, by the way, too, and let's say you did have success, and let's say you did have success, and let's say you did have success, which is what happens to a lot of some which is what happens to a lot of some which is what happens to a lot of some of these competitors that do two hours of these competitors that do two hours of these competitors that do two hours of it every single day to get rid of of it every single day to get rid of of it every single day to get rid of that. And and not only that, but now in that. And and not only that, but now in that. And and not only that, but now in order to maintain that that body that order to maintain that that body that order to maintain that that body that they've now achieved, they've got to they've now achieved, they've got to they've now achieved, they've got to maintain the two hours of cardio every maintain the two hours of cardio every maintain the two hours of cardio every single day, which is unrealistic and single day, which is unrealistic and single day, which is unrealistic and they're not going to do, which is why they're not going to do, which is why they're not going to do, which is why there's this massive rebound afterwards there's this massive rebound afterwards there's this massive rebound afterwards and they put on because they stop doing and they put on because they stop doing and they put on because they stop doing that instantly and then there's huge that instantly and then there's huge that instantly and then there's huge difference in in calorie burn. And so difference in in calorie burn. And so difference in in calorie burn. And so this is such a terrible strategy and yet this is such a terrible strategy and yet this is such a terrible strategy and yet everybody seems to do it even at the everybody seems to do it even at the everybody seems to do it even at the competitive level and it really should. competitive level and it really should. competitive level and it really should.

He should be burning, if you did the math, insane amounts of if you did the math, insane amounts of if you did the math, insane amounts of calories through that activity. The body calories through that activity. The body calories through that activity. The body learned and your body will learn how to learned and your body will learn how to learned and your body will learn how to become efficient with calories if you're become efficient with calories if you're become efficient with calories if you're asking your body to become efficient asking your body to become efficient asking your body to become efficient with calories simultaneously asking it with calories simultaneously asking it with calories simultaneously asking it telling it we don't need a lot of telling it we don't need a lot of telling it we don't need a lot of muscle. Well, that that caller we just muscle. Well, that that caller we just muscle. Well, that that caller we just that we had was eating 2500 calories to that we had was eating 2500 calories to that we had was eating 2500 calories to maintain where he was at and very very maintain where he was at and very very maintain where he was at and very very active, high training volume, all the active, high training volume, all the active, high training volume, all the things. Another way to show this example things. Another way to show this example things. Another way to show this example is this s and show you how different you is this s and show you how different you is this s and show you how different you how much you can manipulate your how much you can manipulate your how much you can manipulate your metabolism is uh Michael Phelps metabolism is uh Michael Phelps metabolism is uh Michael Phelps &gt;&gt; 10,000 calories, &gt;&gt; 10,000 calories, &gt;&gt; 10,000 calories, &gt;&gt; you know. So you you have this like the &gt;&gt; you know. So you you have this like the &gt;&gt; you know. So you you have this like the body is unbelievably efficient and if body is unbelievably efficient and if body is unbelievably efficient and if you if you don't give it a lot of you if you don't give it a lot of you if you don't give it a lot of calories and you do all this crazy calories and you do all this crazy calories and you do all this crazy activity, it will it will learn and it activity, it will it will learn and it activity, it will it will learn and it will adapt to that. But you could also will adapt to that. But you could also will adapt to that. But you could also get away with feeding it unbelievably get away with feeding it unbelievably get away with feeding it unbelievably when you have somebody like that that's when you have somebody like that that's when you have somebody like that that's doing that much activity. So how can doing that much activity. So how can doing that much activity. So how can people be that far off from each other? people be that far off from each other? people be that far off from each other? Well, that's just an example of like how Well, that's just an example of like how Well, that's just an example of like how crazy adaptive the the metabolism is is crazy adaptive the the metabolism is is crazy adaptive the the metabolism is is that if you continue to put it in a that if you continue to put it in a that if you continue to put it in a deficit and you push the body more and deficit and you push the body more and deficit and you push the body more and more and more and trying to burn your more and more and trying to burn your more and more and trying to burn your way down, eventually it completely slows way down, eventually it completely slows way down, eventually it completely slows down. It's always a terrible strategy. down. It's always a terrible strategy. down. It's always a terrible strategy. &gt;&gt; Make it really clear the best way to &gt;&gt; Make it really clear the best way to &gt;&gt; Make it really clear the best way to view exercise is what kind of physical view exercise is what kind of physical view exercise is what kind of physical adaptation does this exercise induce? adaptation does this exercise induce? adaptation does this exercise induce? And that's when I'll use the exercise. And that's when I'll use the exercise. And that's when I'll use the exercise. &gt;&gt; What's it best for? What's that specific &gt;&gt; What's it best for? What's that specific &gt;&gt; What's it best for? What's that specific exercise best for? exercise best for? exercise best for? &gt;&gt; Yes. And then diet you should look at &gt;&gt; Yes. And then diet you should look at &gt;&gt; Yes. And then diet you should look at for health fueling and then manipulate for health fueling and then manipulate for health fueling and then manipulate your diet for fat loss uh or muscle your diet for fat loss uh or muscle your diet for fat loss uh or muscle gain. Okay, so that's what you do. Now, gain. Okay, so that's what you do. Now, gain. Okay, so that's what you do. Now, can you look at exercise through the can you look at exercise through the can you look at exercise through the lens of fat loss? Well, you can because lens of fat loss? Well, you can because lens of fat loss? Well, you can because when you look at your diet and you're when you look at your diet and you're when you look at your diet and you're eating in a way to lose body fat, which eating in a way to lose body fat, which eating in a way to lose body fat, which means you're in what's called a calorie means you're in what's called a calorie means you're in what's called a calorie deficit. You're eating less calories deficit. You're eating less calories deficit. You're eating less calories than you're burning. Well, the form of than you're burning. Well, the form of than you're burning. Well, the form of exercise I should pick if my goal is exercise I should pick if my goal is exercise I should pick if my goal is aesthetic, if my goal is primarily aesthetic, if my goal is primarily aesthetic, if my goal is primarily aesthetic, I want to lose body fat. aesthetic, I want to lose body fat. aesthetic, I want to lose body fat. Well, I'm going to try and pick the form Well, I'm going to try and pick the form Well, I'm going to try and pick the form of exercise that's going to mitigate or of exercise that's going to mitigate or of exercise that's going to mitigate or block or stop or reverse whatever block or stop or reverse whatever block or stop or reverse whatever negative effects a calorie deficit can negative effects a calorie deficit can negative effects a calorie deficit can cause. Well, what's one of the negative cause. Well, what's one of the negative cause. Well, what's one of the negative effects of a calorie deficit? Muscle effects of a calorie deficit? Muscle effects of a calorie deficit? Muscle loss. loss. loss. &gt;&gt; Consistent. Consistent. You go in a &gt;&gt; Consistent. Consistent. You go in a &gt;&gt; Consistent. Consistent. You go in a calorie deficit, you will lose weight. A calorie deficit, you will lose weight. A calorie deficit, you will lose weight. A significant amount of that weight will significant amount of that weight will significant amount of that weight will be muscle loss. It happens across the be muscle loss. It happens across the be muscle loss. It happens across the board. So, which form of exercise should board. So, which form of exercise should board. So, which form of exercise should I pick? The one that's going to build I pick? The one that's going to build I pick? The one that's going to build endurance and stamina. The one that's endurance and stamina. The one that's endurance and stamina. The one that's going to build, let's say, flexibility. going to build, let's say, flexibility. going to build, let's say, flexibility. The one that's going to build strength. The one that's going to build strength. The one that's going to build strength. Uh that's the one right there, the Uh that's the one right there, the Uh that's the one right there, the strengthbuilding form of exercise strengthbuilding form of exercise strengthbuilding form of exercise because it directly counters what because it directly counters what because it directly counters what happens with the calorie deficit. And happens with the calorie deficit. And happens with the calorie deficit. And again, this is why you see in the again, this is why you see in the again, this is why you see in the studies for pure fat loss uh as a studies for pure fat loss uh as a studies for pure fat loss uh as a percentage of body weight loss, percentage of body weight loss, percentage of body weight loss, especially strength training is superior especially strength training is superior especially strength training is superior and why cardio should not even be when and why cardio should not even be when and why cardio should not even be when clients would come to me and I'd work clients would come to me and I'd work clients would come to me and I'd work with them if they're if they told me with them if they're if they told me with them if they're if they told me specifically, look, uh and they're not specifically, look, uh and they're not specifically, look, uh and they're not working out at all. I want to get working out at all. I want to get working out at all. I want to get healthier. Cool. Okay, check. What else healthier. Cool. Okay, check. What else healthier. Cool. Okay, check. What else you want? Fat loss. check. Uh this is you want? Fat loss. check. Uh this is you want? Fat loss. check. Uh this is what we're going to do. We're going to what we're going to do. We're going to what we're going to do. We're going to start with strength training. Why? Well, start with strength training. Why? Well, start with strength training. Why? Well, because strength training is going to because strength training is going to because strength training is going to give you some stamina. It's if you're give you some stamina. It's if you're give you some stamina. It's if you're seditary now, it's going to give you seditary now, it's going to give you seditary now, it's going to give you some stamina and endurance. It's going some stamina and endurance. It's going some stamina and endurance. It's going to improve your health. It's going to do to improve your health. It's going to do to improve your health. It's going to do those things and it's going to help with those things and it's going to help with those things and it's going to help with the fat loss. Now, if a client came to the fat loss. Now, if a client came to the fat loss. Now, if a client came to me and says, I I want to go play me and says, I I want to go play me and says, I I want to go play basketball. I want to swim. I want to basketball. I want to swim. I want to basketball. I want to swim. I want to run. Like, I need that kind of stamina. run. Like, I need that kind of stamina. run. Like, I need that kind of stamina. Cardio is going to be a part of uh their Cardio is going to be a part of uh their Cardio is going to be a part of uh their protocol. Strength training will still protocol. Strength training will still protocol. Strength training will still be a part of the protocol, but cardio be a part of the protocol, but cardio be a part of the protocol, but cardio now is a part of the protocol. I don't now is a part of the protocol. I don't now is a part of the protocol. I don't look at it for fat loss. There's a lot look at it for fat loss. There's a lot look at it for fat loss. There's a lot of indirect benefits, you know, the of indirect benefits, you know, the of indirect benefits, you know, the cardio as well as like, you know, cardio as well as like, you know, cardio as well as like, you know, especially if we're talking about fat especially if we're talking about fat especially if we're talking about fat loss, like for the endurance component loss, like for the endurance component loss, like for the endurance component to kind of re uh visit like some of your to kind of re uh visit like some of your to kind of re uh visit like some of your workouts and have that uh bit of stamina workouts and have that uh bit of stamina workouts and have that uh bit of stamina to go through, you know, and so it's to go through, you know, and so it's to go through, you know, and so it's like it's not something that you totally like it's not something that you totally like it's not something that you totally eliminate per se, but if you're trying eliminate per se, but if you're trying eliminate per se, but if you're trying to like be specific and like this is to like be specific and like this is to like be specific and like this is your targeted goal of, you know, fat your targeted goal of, you know, fat your targeted goal of, you know, fat loss is the most uh objectively that's loss is the most uh objectively that's loss is the most uh objectively that's that's what I'm seeking the most, like that's what I'm seeking the most, like that's what I'm seeking the most, like it's not going to be your best tool for it's not going to be your best tool for it's not going to be your best tool for the tool. the tool. the tool. &gt;&gt; Have you been on a weight loss journey, &gt;&gt; Have you been on a weight loss journey, &gt;&gt; Have you been on a weight loss journey, starving?

I want both. I want both. &gt;&gt; Yeah. &gt;&gt; Yeah. &gt;&gt; Yeah. &gt;&gt; Because then there that's where they &gt;&gt; Because then there that's where they &gt;&gt; Because then there that's where they feel like they're lost. Well, I don't feel like they're lost. Well, I don't feel like they're lost. Well, I don't just care about aesthetics. I also want just care about aesthetics. I also want just care about aesthetics. I also want endurance and want that. endurance and want that. endurance and want that. &gt;&gt; But the the answer to that is still &gt;&gt; But the the answer to that is still &gt;&gt; But the the answer to that is still focus on the aesthetic first and then we focus on the aesthetic first and then we focus on the aesthetic first and then we can go build the stamina. Like you're can go build the stamina. Like you're can go build the stamina. Like you're far better off doing that than trying to far better off doing that than trying to far better off doing that than trying to do both of them at the same time. You'd do both of them at the same time. You'd do both of them at the same time. You'd be it'd be far more because to your be it'd be far more because to your be it'd be far more because to your point while we're lifting weights and point while we're lifting weights and point while we're lifting weights and building muscle, you're going to get building muscle, you're going to get building muscle, you're going to get some stamina. some stamina. some stamina. &gt;&gt; If you're sedentary right now, just &gt;&gt; If you're sedentary right now, just &gt;&gt; If you're sedentary right now, just strength training is going to give you strength training is going to give you strength training is going to give you uh the stamina endurance. uh the stamina endurance. uh the stamina endurance. &gt;&gt; That's right. It's going to give you &gt;&gt; That's right. It's going to give you &gt;&gt; That's right. It's going to give you some of that and it's going to start to some of that and it's going to start to some of that and it's going to start to build the metabolism and it's going to build the metabolism and it's going to build the metabolism and it's going to get the body fat off and like so it's get the body fat off and like so it's get the body fat off and like so it's going to benefit you in that. And then going to benefit you in that. And then going to benefit you in that. And then after you're in that position where after you're in that position where after you're in that position where you're like, "Okay, I've gotten to a you're like, "Okay, I've gotten to a you're like, "Okay, I've gotten to a place where I'm happy. Now let's go place where I'm happy. Now let's go place where I'm happy. Now let's go after more endurance and more stamina." after more endurance and more stamina." after more endurance and more stamina." You're way better off then saying, "How You're way better off then saying, "How You're way better off then saying, "How do I do both at the same time?" Doing do I do both at the same time?" Doing do I do both at the same time?" Doing both at the same time. You're going to both at the same time. You're going to both at the same time. You're going to be robbing Peter to pay Paul all the be robbing Peter to pay Paul all the be robbing Peter to pay Paul all the time. time. time. &gt;&gt; The problem I think the big problem I've &gt;&gt; The problem I think the big problem I've &gt;&gt; The problem I think the big problem I've said this uh um a lot in the past. The said this uh um a lot in the past. The said this uh um a lot in the past. The big issue is that people look at at fat big issue is that people look at at fat big issue is that people look at at fat loss as just a math problem. This way loss as just a math problem. This way loss as just a math problem. This way they view it. they view it. they view it. &gt;&gt; Yeah. &gt;&gt; Yeah. &gt;&gt; Yeah. &gt;&gt; Calories in versus calories out which &gt;&gt; Calories in versus calories out which &gt;&gt; Calories in versus calories out which that's true. Okay. That there's a truess that's true. Okay. That there's a truess that's true. Okay. That there's a truess there deficit there deficit there deficit &gt;&gt; but it's not explaining uh how that &gt;&gt; but it's not explaining uh how that &gt;&gt; but it's not explaining uh how that works. It's not breaking down the works. It's not breaking down the works. It's not breaking down the nuances and how the human metabolism nuances and how the human metabolism nuances and how the human metabolism work and how hormones affect all that work and how hormones affect all that work and how hormones affect all that stuff. But yes, it is true that that stuff. But yes, it is true that that stuff. But yes, it is true that that math problem is a part of it. Now, math problem is a part of it. Now, math problem is a part of it. Now, here's where it gets messed up. Uh, all here's where it gets messed up. Uh, all here's where it gets messed up. Uh, all right, if it's calories in versus right, if it's calories in versus right, if it's calories in versus calories out, well, the form of exercise calories out, well, the form of exercise calories out, well, the form of exercise I'm going to pick is the one that I'm going to pick is the one that I'm going to pick is the one that increases the calorie burn the most. So, increases the calorie burn the most. So, increases the calorie burn the most. So, that should be the best one. But that's that should be the best one. But that's that should be the best one. But that's not the full story because yes, running not the full story because yes, running not the full story because yes, running for, look here, running for 45 minutes for, look here, running for 45 minutes for, look here, running for 45 minutes will burn probably three times as many will burn probably three times as many will burn probably three times as many calories as lift as traditional strength calories as lift as traditional strength calories as lift as traditional strength training will for 45 minutes. It's true, training will for 45 minutes. It's true, training will for 45 minutes. It's true, but we're taking out the adaptation but we're taking out the adaptation but we're taking out the adaptation piece. like what does that exercise piece. like what does that exercise piece. like what does that exercise induce as far as as far as adaptation is induce as far as as far as adaptation is induce as far as as far as adaptation is concerned with the body? When you concerned with the body? When you concerned with the body? When you consider that, well, the picture becomes consider that, well, the picture becomes consider that, well, the picture becomes much more clear. It's not just about how much more clear. It's not just about how much more clear. It's not just about how many calories you burn. It's about the many calories you burn. It's about the many calories you burn. It's about the adaptations. Does that help me burn more adaptations. Does that help me burn more adaptations. Does that help me burn more calories later on on my own? Does that calories later on on my own? Does that calories later on on my own? Does that cause me to have to continue doing the cause me to have to continue doing the cause me to have to continue doing the activity in order to burn the calories activity in order to burn the calories activity in order to burn the calories or is my body figuring it out? And does or is my body figuring it out? And does or is my body figuring it out? And does it solve the muscle loss problem? Is it it solve the muscle loss problem? Is it it solve the muscle loss problem? Is it going to fix the pro the muscle loss going to fix the pro the muscle loss going to fix the pro the muscle loss problem that that's caused by a calorie problem that that's caused by a calorie problem that that's caused by a calorie deficit? When you consider all of those deficit? When you consider all of those deficit? When you consider all of those things, the picture gets much much more things, the picture gets much much more things, the picture gets much much more clear. But if it's just calories in clear. But if it's just calories in clear. But if it's just calories in versus calories out, let's just burn versus calories out, let's just burn versus calories out, let's just burn more calories, you're going to end up in more calories, you're going to end up in more calories, you're going to end up in a terrible plateau, which is what a terrible plateau, which is what a terrible plateau, which is what happens to a lot of people where, you happens to a lot of people where, you happens to a lot of people where, you know, they want to lose 30 lbs, so they know, they want to lose 30 lbs, so they know, they want to lose 30 lbs, so they just burn a lot of calories on a just burn a lot of calories on a just burn a lot of calories on a treadmill. Uh they cut their calories, treadmill. Uh they cut their calories, treadmill. Uh they cut their calories, they get 15 lbs off, then they hit this they get 15 lbs off, then they hit this they get 15 lbs off, then they hit this really hard plateau. By the way, the 15 really hard plateau. By the way, the 15 really hard plateau. By the way, the 15 lbs include 7 lbs of muscle. Then lbs include 7 lbs of muscle. Then lbs include 7 lbs of muscle. Then they're in this really hard plateau, and they're in this really hard plateau, and they're in this really hard plateau, and then they're left like this. And I know, then they're left like this. And I know, then they're left like this. And I know, listen, if you're listening, and this listen, if you're listening, and this listen, if you're listening, and this this has probably happened to a this has probably happened to a this has probably happened to a significant percentage of people significant percentage of people significant percentage of people listening right now who've tried to lose listening right now who've tried to lose listening right now who've tried to lose weight in the past. You hit this plateau weight in the past. You hit this plateau weight in the past. You hit this plateau and then you're here, okay, uh, I guess and then you're here, okay, uh, I guess and then you're here, okay, uh, I guess I got to work out more and I got to eat I got to work out more and I got to eat I got to work out more and I got to eat less, but I'm already working out a lot. less, but I'm already working out a lot. less, but I'm already working out a lot. My schedule's kind of crazy. I'm doing My schedule's kind of crazy. I'm doing My schedule's kind of crazy. I'm doing four days a week of running or whatever. four days a week of running or whatever. four days a week of running or whatever. My calories are already low.

I'm already hungry. Uh, I guess to lose the next 15 pounds, Uh, I guess to lose the next 15 pounds, Uh, I guess to lose the next 15 pounds, I got to increase my activity, drop my I got to increase my activity, drop my I got to increase my activity, drop my calories some more. And some of you, uh, calories some more. And some of you, uh, calories some more. And some of you, uh, because you're really disciplined, because you're really disciplined, because you're really disciplined, hardworking, you go, "All right, let's hardworking, you go, "All right, let's hardworking, you go, "All right, let's go for it." And you do it. And then you go for it." And you do it. And then you go for it." And you do it. And then you drop another seven lbs, another 3 lbs of drop another seven lbs, another 3 lbs of drop another seven lbs, another 3 lbs of that is muscle. Now you're left with that is muscle. Now you're left with that is muscle. Now you're left with whatever, you know, you're down maybe whatever, you know, you're down maybe whatever, you know, you're down maybe nine more pounds of body fat to lose. nine more pounds of body fat to lose. nine more pounds of body fat to lose.

So, I started working working in gyms. So, I started working working in gyms. So, I started working in gyms at 18 like you guys. We were all in gyms at 18 like you guys. We were all in gyms at 18 like you guys. We were all young when we started working in gyms. young when we started working in gyms. young when we started working in gyms. And when you work in a gym and you love And when you work in a gym and you love And when you work in a gym and you love it, you're there all day long. And so, it, you're there all day long. And so, it, you're there all day long. And so, if you're there long enough, you know, if you're there long enough, you know, if you're there long enough, you know, after 6 months, uh, you see your after 6 months, uh, you see your after 6 months, uh, you see your regulars, okay? You recognize your regulars, okay? You recognize your regulars, okay? You recognize your regular members. And I remember, you regular members. And I remember, you regular members. And I remember, you know, I'm in the gym. I'm in there all know, I'm in the gym. I'm in there all know, I'm in the gym. I'm in there all the time. When I was first started, man, the time. When I was first started, man, the time. When I was first started, man, I loved it so much. which I was there I loved it so much. which I was there I loved it so much. which I was there literally 8:00 a.m. to 10:00 p.m. 6 or 7 literally 8:00 a.m. to 10:00 p.m. 6 or 7 literally 8:00 a.m. to 10:00 p.m. 6 or 7 days a week. I'm always in there. And I days a week. I'm always in there. And I days a week. I'm always in there. And I would I would see these regulars that would I would see these regulars that would I would see these regulars that would come in. They check themselves in. would come in. They check themselves in. would come in. They check themselves in. I knew their names. Hi, how you doing? I knew their names. Hi, how you doing? I knew their names. Hi, how you doing? They go get changed, come out, and They go get changed, come out, and They go get changed, come out, and they'd hop on the stairmaster and they'd they'd hop on the stairmaster and they'd they'd hop on the stairmaster and they'd be there for an hour. be there for an hour. be there for an hour. &gt;&gt; And they would be there all the time. &gt;&gt; And they would be there all the time. &gt;&gt; And they would be there all the time. And after I was there after a year, I'd And after I was there after a year, I'd And after I was there after a year, I'd see the same and they looked no see the same and they looked no see the same and they looked no different. different. different. &gt;&gt; No different. They'd look they'd look &gt;&gt; No different. They'd look they'd look &gt;&gt; No different. They'd look they'd look exactly and what I mean by looking the exactly and what I mean by looking the exactly and what I mean by looking the same is they were probably 20 to 25 same is they were probably 20 to 25 same is they were probably 20 to 25 pounds overweight, sweating their butts pounds overweight, sweating their butts pounds overweight, sweating their butts off on these on these. off on these on these. off on these on these. &gt;&gt; Such a mystery for me when I was a young &gt;&gt; Such a mystery for me when I was a young &gt;&gt; Such a mystery for me when I was a young trainer. Yeah, it was trainer. Yeah, it was trainer. Yeah, it was &gt;&gt; the other one, which I think is even was &gt;&gt; the other one, which I think is even was &gt;&gt; the other one, which I think is even was even more of a mystery to me, which blew even more of a mystery to me, which blew even more of a mystery to me, which blew my mind, were the group X instructors my mind, were the group X instructors my mind, were the group X instructors who taught four or five classes a day, who taught four or five classes a day, who taught four or five classes a day, were drenched in sweat and were just and were drenched in sweat and were just and were drenched in sweat and were just and they looked out of shape and you're they looked out of shape and you're they looked out of shape and you're like, there's no way she would bury me like, there's no way she would bury me like, there's no way she would bury me in that class. in that class. in that class. &gt;&gt; Like, I know she's working out like and &gt;&gt; Like, I know she's working out like and &gt;&gt; Like, I know she's working out like and and you think, God, she must eat and you think, God, she must eat and you think, God, she must eat terrible. terrible. terrible. &gt;&gt; That's what I thought. &gt;&gt; That's what I thought. &gt;&gt; That's what I thought. &gt;&gt; Yeah. She must she must go right out of &gt;&gt; Yeah. She must she must go right out of &gt;&gt; Yeah. She must she must go right out of here right to Burger King and just like here right to Burger King and just like here right to Burger King and just like hammer food. So, you know what I used to hammer food. So, you know what I used to hammer food. So, you know what I used to do? It wasn't that. So what I used to do do? It wasn't that. So what I used to do do? It wasn't that. So what I used to do is cuz that's what I thought. is cuz that's what I thought. is cuz that's what I thought. &gt;&gt; I remember when I first trained when I &gt;&gt; I remember when I first trained when I &gt;&gt; I remember when I first trained when I first got my first group back instructor first got my first group back instructor first got my first group back instructor &gt;&gt; when I was an early trainer I thought &gt;&gt; when I was an early trainer I thought &gt;&gt; when I was an early trainer I thought man those members must eat the worst man those members must eat the worst man those members must eat the worst diets ever. But then you get to know diets ever. But then you get to know diets ever. But then you get to know them, you talk to them and I talked to them, you talk to them and I talked to them, you talk to them and I talked to one guy and you know they knew I was a one guy and you know they knew I was a one guy and you know they knew I was a trainer and then a fitness manager and trainer and then a fitness manager and trainer and then a fitness manager and so I was talking diet and the first so I was talking diet and the first so I was talking diet and the first guy's telling me what he's eating and guy's telling me what he's eating and guy's telling me what he's eating and you know what I'm thinking? Lie. Lies. you know what I'm thinking? Lie. Lies. you know what I'm thinking? Lie. Lies. There's no way that's what you're There's no way that's what you're There's no way that's what you're eating. There's no way. eating. There's no way. eating. There's no way. &gt;&gt; Underestimating. &gt;&gt; Underestimating. &gt;&gt; Underestimating. &gt;&gt; And then I talked to another one. Same &gt;&gt; And then I talked to another one. Same &gt;&gt; And then I talked to another one. Same thing. Lies. By the fourth or fifth one, thing. Lies. By the fourth or fifth one, thing. Lies. By the fourth or fifth one, I was like, "Are they all lying to me? I was like, "Are they all lying to me? I was like, "Are they all lying to me? This can't be right. This doesn't make This can't be right. This doesn't make This can't be right. This doesn't make any sense." Meanwhile, I'm a trainer, any sense." Meanwhile, I'm a trainer, any sense." Meanwhile, I'm a trainer, personal training people, and I'm personal training people, and I'm personal training people, and I'm focused on strength training mainly focused on strength training mainly focused on strength training mainly because at the time because as a because at the time because as a because at the time because as a trainer, what a waste of time to have to trainer, what a waste of time to have to trainer, what a waste of time to have to have a cardio have a client do cardio have a cardio have a client do cardio have a cardio have a client do cardio while I'm watching. while I'm watching. while I'm watching. &gt;&gt; I know. I was like, get them strong at &gt;&gt; I know. I was like, get them strong at &gt;&gt; I know. I was like, get them strong at least. least. least. &gt;&gt; So, so you strength training, let me &gt;&gt; So, so you strength training, let me &gt;&gt; So, so you strength training, let me take you out in the gym and do and I'm take you out in the gym and do and I'm take you out in the gym and do and I'm watching my clients get leaner, get more watching my clients get leaner, get more watching my clients get leaner, get more fit, they're eating more than the people fit, they're eating more than the people fit, they're eating more than the people in the cardio. And then I started to in the cardio. And then I started to in the cardio. And then I started to piece this together. Uh oh, maybe it's piece this together. Uh oh, maybe it's piece this together. Uh oh, maybe it's the form of exercise. And same thing the form of exercise. And same thing the form of exercise. And same thing with my group X instructor for them. But with my group X instructor for them. But with my group X instructor for them. But yeah, it it's so funny because you look yeah, it it's so funny because you look yeah, it it's so funny because you look back at that, I was so confused by like back at that, I was so confused by like back at that, I was so confused by like when is this working like cuz two to when is this working like cuz two to when is this working like cuz two to your other points of like the the whole your other points of like the the whole your other points of like the the whole math problem. It's like calories, you math problem. It's like calories, you math problem. It's like calories, you know. So you start looking at things know. So you start looking at things know. So you start looking at things that burn and so you look at and then we that burn and so you look at and then we that burn and so you look at and then we used to like track it and you're like used to like track it and you're like used to like track it and you're like okay whatever it's telling me on the okay whatever it's telling me on the okay whatever it's telling me on the cardio equipment like you could see it cardio equipment like you could see it cardio equipment like you could see it you know this is actually burning you know this is actually burning you know this is actually burning whatever 250 calories or some like whatever 250 calories or some like whatever 250 calories or some like arbitrary number that's probably not arbitrary number that's probably not arbitrary number that's probably not even close to being accurate and then even close to being accurate and then even close to being accurate and then you and then you look it up and then you you and then you look it up and then you you and then you look it up and then you look at this I forget whatever book it look at this I forget whatever book it look at this I forget whatever book it was it would start like highlighting was it would start like highlighting was it would start like highlighting each exercise what you actually burn each exercise what you actually burn each exercise what you actually burn from weight training and it wasn't even from weight training and it wasn't even from weight training and it wasn't even close and so you start leaning more close and so you start leaning more close and so you start leaning more towards like the cardio to handle fat to towards like the cardio to handle fat to towards like the cardio to handle fat to then build them up in the strength once then build them up in the strength once then build them up in the strength once you get the fat off. you get the fat off. you get the fat off. &gt;&gt; I know it was wild. &gt;&gt; I know it was wild. &gt;&gt; I know it was wild. &gt;&gt; This is how this is why the stair master &gt;&gt; This is how this is why the stair master &gt;&gt; This is how this is why the stair master got so popular because of the calorie got so popular because of the calorie got so popular because of the calorie burn burn burn &gt;&gt; cuz on the machine itself it gave you &gt;&gt; cuz on the machine itself it gave you &gt;&gt; cuz on the machine itself it gave you the highest number. the highest number. the highest number. &gt;&gt; Yeah. Yeah. And people get drenched in &gt;&gt; Yeah. Yeah. And people get drenched in &gt;&gt; Yeah. Yeah. And people get drenched in sweat sweat sweat &gt;&gt; which by the way people need to know &gt;&gt; which by the way people need to know &gt;&gt; which by the way people need to know this. this. this. &gt;&gt; Cardio manufacturers would change the &gt;&gt; Cardio manufacturers would change the &gt;&gt; Cardio manufacturers would change the number once they realized that people number once they realized that people number once they realized that people would pick the cardio that showed the would pick the cardio that showed the would pick the cardio that showed the highest calorie burn cuz nobody checks highest calorie burn cuz nobody checks highest calorie burn cuz nobody checks nobody care. It's not like a scientist nobody care. It's not like a scientist nobody care. It's not like a scientist come in actually elliptical is burning. come in actually elliptical is burning. come in actually elliptical is burning. It's you just put it up there. So they It's you just put it up there. So they It's you just put it up there. So they would literally cardio manufacturers would literally cardio manufacturers would literally cardio manufacturers would make sure that their machines would make sure that their machines would make sure that their machines showed higher calorie burn because they showed higher calorie burn because they showed higher calorie burn because they knew that more people would use it. knew that more people would use it. knew that more people would use it. &gt;&gt; Yeah. Yeah. Is it correct? &gt;&gt; Yeah. Yeah. Is it correct? &gt;&gt; Yeah. Yeah. Is it correct? &gt;&gt; Did you hear the um Did you hear the &gt;&gt; Did you hear the um Did you hear the &gt;&gt; Did you hear the um Did you hear the clip or did you listen to the clip the clip or did you listen to the clip the clip or did you listen to the clip the Dorian Yates? Dorian Yates? Dorian Yates? &gt;&gt; Oh, where he was talking to Hubberman? &gt;&gt; Oh, where he was talking to Hubberman? &gt;&gt; Oh, where he was talking to Hubberman? &gt;&gt; Yeah. &gt;&gt; Yeah. &gt;&gt; Yeah. &gt;&gt; So, I watched some of that. &gt;&gt; So, I watched some of that. &gt;&gt; So, I watched some of that. &gt;&gt; Did you watch the Did you watch when he &gt;&gt; Did you watch the Did you watch when he &gt;&gt; Did you watch the Did you watch when he talked about how he does his uh his talked about how he does his uh his talked about how he does his uh his cardio? No. cardio? No. cardio? No. &gt;&gt; 6 minutes? &gt;&gt; 6 minutes? &gt;&gt; 6 minutes? &gt;&gt; No. &gt;&gt; No. &gt;&gt; No. &gt;&gt; Oh, I wish you would have watched that. &gt;&gt; Oh, I wish you would have watched that. &gt;&gt; Oh, I wish you would have watched that. I wanted I wanted I wanted &gt;&gt; No, I didn't see that one. &gt;&gt; No, I didn't see that one. &gt;&gt; No, I didn't see that one. &gt;&gt; That's why I sent it to you guy. &gt;&gt; That's why I sent it to you guy. &gt;&gt; That's why I sent it to you guy. &gt;&gt; Well, you know why? Cuz I saw so many &gt;&gt; Well, you know why? Cuz I saw so many &gt;&gt; Well, you know why? Cuz I saw so many clips. clips. clips. &gt;&gt; It was only a minute and a half. He had &gt;&gt; It was only a minute and a half. He had &gt;&gt; It was only a minute and a half. He had listen. listen. listen. &gt;&gt; It's too long. He tal he talked Maybe &gt;&gt; It's too long. He tal he talked Maybe &gt;&gt; It's too long. He tal he talked Maybe Doug could pull it up because it's Doug could pull it up because it's Doug could pull it up because it's literally only a minute and a half for literally only a minute and a half for literally only a minute and a half for us to listen to because I I was super us to listen to because I I was super us to listen to because I I was super intrigued by this. Uh and there's and I intrigued by this. Uh and there's and I intrigued by this. Uh and there's and I guess there is a uh they call it they guess there is a uh they call it they guess there is a uh they call it they call it um uh one I think yeah one yeah call it um uh one I think yeah one yeah call it um uh one I think yeah one yeah one minute of cardio and it is uh three one minute of cardio and it is uh three one minute of cardio and it is uh three bouts of all out 20 seconds. So it ends bouts of all out 20 seconds. So it ends bouts of all out 20 seconds. So it ends up being a it's called one minute up being a it's called one minute up being a it's called one minute cardio, but it's six total minutes and cardio, but it's six total minutes and cardio, but it's six total minutes and it's basically three. it's basically three. it's basically three. &gt;&gt; So it's interval essential. &gt;&gt; So it's interval essential. &gt;&gt; So it's interval essential. &gt;&gt; It's three 20 second all outs. &gt;&gt; It's three 20 second all outs. &gt;&gt; It's three 20 second all outs. &gt;&gt; And he breaks down like the benefits and &gt;&gt; And he breaks down like the benefits and &gt;&gt; And he breaks down like the benefits and this research to to compare it to like this research to to compare it to like this research to to compare it to like an hour worth of cardio an hour worth of cardio an hour worth of cardio &gt;&gt; and the amount of calorie burn and &gt;&gt; and the amount of calorie burn and &gt;&gt; and the amount of calorie burn and benefits and everything that you get. benefits and everything that you get. benefits and everything that you get. And it's and I believe it it's it's it's And it's and I believe it it's it's it's And it's and I believe it it's it's it's called and called and called and &gt;&gt; so I'm not familiar with that &gt;&gt; so I'm not familiar with that &gt;&gt; so I'm not familiar with that specifically, but I am familiar with the specifically, but I am familiar with the specifically, but I am familiar with the data around that form of cardio. Yeah, data around that form of cardio. Yeah, data around that form of cardio. Yeah, I'm familiar with like the the data I'm familiar with like the the data I'm familiar with like the the data around HIT cardio. We've talked about around HIT cardio. We've talked about around HIT cardio. We've talked about this before. I'm familiar. I didn't even this before. I'm familiar. I didn't even this before. I'm familiar. I didn't even I've never heard of this and I heard I've never heard of this and I heard I've never heard of this and I heard Dorian Yates talking about with Hummer. Dorian Yates talking about with Hummer. Dorian Yates talking about with Hummer. &gt;&gt; It's it's got huge uh V2 max benefits, &gt;&gt; It's it's got huge uh V2 max benefits, &gt;&gt; It's it's got huge uh V2 max benefits, health benefits, uh stamina benefits. health benefits, uh stamina benefits. health benefits, uh stamina benefits. Here's the problem, though. Uh if you Here's the problem, though. Uh if you Here's the problem, though. Uh if you take most everyday people and you have take most everyday people and you have take most everyday people and you have them sprint all out for 20 seconds, them sprint all out for 20 seconds, them sprint all out for 20 seconds, &gt;&gt; it's inappropriate for them. It's just a &gt;&gt; it's inappropriate for them. It's just a &gt;&gt; it's inappropriate for them. It's just a fact, you guys. Well, he's he's he's he fact, you guys.

Yeah. &gt;&gt; And you can just clip it in, Dylan. &gt;&gt; And you can just clip it in, Dylan. &gt;&gt; And you can just clip it in, Dylan. &gt;&gt; Yeah. I just thought, you know, um I &gt;&gt; Yeah. I just thought, you know, um I &gt;&gt; Yeah. I just thought, you know, um I what made me want to go listen to the what made me want to go listen to the what made me want to go listen to the whole interview so I could hear Hubman whole interview so I could hear Hubman whole interview so I could hear Hubman and him go back and forth uh on it. Um and him go back and forth uh on it. Um and him go back and forth uh on it. Um but I what caught my attention was, you but I what caught my attention was, you but I what caught my attention was, you know, comparing it to like a whole hour know, comparing it to like a whole hour know, comparing it to like a whole hour of cardio I thought was really of cardio I thought was really of cardio I thought was really fascinating and and done on uh on that fascinating and and done on uh on that fascinating and and done on uh on that bike. For your point, risk versus bike. For your point, risk versus bike. For your point, risk versus reward. reward. reward. &gt;&gt; No, it's not the technique that I'm &gt;&gt; No, it's not the technique that I'm &gt;&gt; No, it's not the technique that I'm worried about. It's it's uh it's worried about. It's it's uh it's worried about. It's it's uh it's literally the exertion. Some people it's literally the exertion. Some people it's literally the exertion. Some people it's just just just &gt;&gt; Well, the average Well, yeah. He's like &gt;&gt; Well, the average Well, yeah. He's like &gt;&gt; Well, the average Well, yeah. He's like the watch. Let's uh here it goes. the watch. Let's uh here it goes. the watch. Let's uh here it goes. &gt;&gt; My favorite because it engages every &gt;&gt; My favorite because it engages every &gt;&gt; My favorite because it engages every muscle. Push, pull, legs. If you do a 20 muscle. Push, pull, legs. If you do a 20 muscle. Push, pull, legs. If you do a 20 second all out, you got on the side of second all out, you got on the side of second all out, you got on the side of the thing, you can see how much watts the thing, you can see how much watts the thing, you can see how much watts you're generating. So now you have a you're generating. So now you have a you're generating. So now you have a target to hit or exceed every time. target to hit or exceed every time. target to hit or exceed every time. &gt;&gt; So do a minute, minute and a half &gt;&gt; So do a minute, minute and a half &gt;&gt; So do a minute, minute and a half warm-up, whatever. Feel warm. All out. warm-up, whatever. Feel warm. All out. warm-up, whatever. Feel warm. All out. Balls out like the devil's chasing you Balls out like the devil's chasing you Balls out like the devil's chasing you for 20 seconds. First one's tough, but for 20 seconds. First one's tough, but for 20 seconds. First one's tough, but it's okay. Go down slowly for a minute. it's okay. Go down slowly for a minute. it's okay. Go down slowly for a minute. Do the second one all out. Second one's Do the second one all out. Second one's Do the second one all out. Second one's really tough. Yeah. The third one is really tough. Yeah. The third one is really tough. Yeah. The third one is I've never met anybody that wants to do I've never met anybody that wants to do I've never met anybody that wants to do one after the third one because one after the third one because one after the third one because literally you can't breathe. And the literally you can't breathe. And the literally you can't breathe. And the benefits from that again I think there's benefits from that again I think there's benefits from that again I think there's a book called the one minute cardio. a book called the one minute cardio. a book called the one minute cardio. It's a bit tricky cuz it's not really It's a bit tricky cuz it's not really It's a bit tricky cuz it's not really one minute. It's 1 minute of sprints one minute. It's 1 minute of sprints one minute. It's 1 minute of sprints &gt;&gt; but it's 6 minutes in total. And they &gt;&gt; but it's 6 minutes in total. And they &gt;&gt; but it's 6 minutes in total. And they compared that to 45 minutes of steady compared that to 45 minutes of steady compared that to 45 minutes of steady cardio on a treadmill or whatever it is. cardio on a treadmill or whatever it is. cardio on a treadmill or whatever it is. &gt;&gt; And the results are more or less the &gt;&gt; And the results are more or less the &gt;&gt; And the results are more or less the same. same. same. &gt;&gt; So So it's 45 minutes. I thought I was &gt;&gt; So So it's 45 minutes. I thought I was &gt;&gt; So So it's 45 minutes. I thought I was 60, but still but still 60, but still but still 60, but still but still &gt;&gt; I So yes, but uh think of the typical &gt;&gt; I So yes, but uh think of the typical &gt;&gt; I So yes, but uh think of the typical client, the average 40ome year old that client, the average 40ome year old that client, the average 40ome year old that comes in to train with our trainers and comes in to train with our trainers and comes in to train with our trainers and have them go all out 20 seconds. No, have them go all out 20 seconds. No, have them go all out 20 seconds.

Like you need someone to &gt;&gt; Which is why I would do what she says &gt;&gt; Which is why I would do what she says &gt;&gt; Which is why I would do what she says &gt;&gt; cuz I would Yeah, cuz I I know I could &gt;&gt; cuz I would Yeah, cuz I I know I could &gt;&gt; cuz I would Yeah, cuz I I know I could dominate. dominate. dominate. &gt;&gt; I will rebel, dude. &gt;&gt; I will rebel, dude. &gt;&gt; I will rebel, dude. &gt;&gt; When she leaves, I go do something else. &gt;&gt; When she leaves, I go do something else. &gt;&gt; When she leaves, I go do something else. &gt;&gt; I do that client. &gt;&gt; I do that client. &gt;&gt; I do that client. &gt;&gt; No, I don't do any extra exercise. &gt;&gt; No, I don't do any extra exercise. &gt;&gt; No, I don't do any extra exercise. &gt;&gt; That's not what she's You sure look like &gt;&gt; That's not what she's You sure look like &gt;&gt; That's not what she's You sure look like you're punk to me. you're punk to me. you're punk to me. &gt;&gt; Yeah, I know, dude. Hey, you guys. Yes. &gt;&gt; Yeah, I know, dude. Hey, you guys. Yes. &gt;&gt; Yeah, I know, dude. Hey, you guys. Yes. So, they just dropped the Okay, so reat So, they just dropped the Okay, so reat So, they just dropped the Okay, so reat try. Reatide. try. Reatide. try. Reatide. &gt;&gt; Oh, is it out officially? Oh, okay. &gt;&gt; Oh, is it out officially? Oh, okay. &gt;&gt; Oh, is it out officially? Oh, okay. &gt;&gt; You guys know &gt;&gt; You guys know &gt;&gt; You guys know &gt;&gt; this is a GLP3. Okay, so &gt;&gt; this is a GLP3. Okay, so &gt;&gt; this is a GLP3. Okay, so &gt;&gt; the builds muscle and &gt;&gt; the builds muscle and &gt;&gt; the builds muscle and &gt;&gt; the f well so the first GLP drugs were &gt;&gt; the f well so the first GLP drugs were &gt;&gt; the f well so the first GLP drugs were what called GLP1s. Okay, so they act on what called GLP1s. Okay, so they act on what called GLP1s. Okay, so they act on one one one &gt;&gt; one receptor. I'm not going to get into &gt;&gt; one receptor. I'm not going to get into &gt;&gt; one receptor. I'm not going to get into science mainly because I don't science mainly because I don't science mainly because I don't understand it. Then there's the GLP2s. understand it. Then there's the GLP2s. understand it. Then there's the GLP2s. So you have some glutide is a GLP1. So you have some glutide is a GLP1. So you have some glutide is a GLP1. &gt;&gt; Tzepide is a GLP2. In the studies, &gt;&gt; Tzepide is a GLP2. In the studies, &gt;&gt; Tzepide is a GLP2. In the studies, tzepide causes more weight loss. tzepide causes more weight loss. tzepide causes more weight loss. &gt;&gt; So &gt;&gt; So &gt;&gt; So &gt;&gt; and less muscle loss &gt;&gt; and less muscle loss &gt;&gt; and less muscle loss &gt;&gt; and less muscle loss. So then these the &gt;&gt; and less muscle loss. So then these the &gt;&gt; and less muscle loss. So then these the companies are like well companies are like well companies are like well &gt;&gt; can we hit more recess can we hit more &gt;&gt; can we hit more recess can we hit more &gt;&gt; can we hit more recess can we hit more recess. So red true tide is a you can recess. So red true tide is a you can recess. So red true tide is a you can only get it as a research chemical right only get it as a research chemical right only get it as a research chemical right now. I don't recommend you do that. You now. I don't recommend you do that. You now. I don't recommend you do that. You don't know what you're getting but uh don't know what you're getting but uh don't know what you're getting but uh it's in the studies and then there's it's in the studies and then there's it's in the studies and then there's lots of bodybuilders and people we know lots of bodybuilders and people we know lots of bodybuilders and people we know &gt;&gt; of course &gt;&gt; of course &gt;&gt; of course &gt;&gt; who've used it but they've come out with &gt;&gt; who've used it but they've come out with &gt;&gt; who've used it but they've come out with the trials and you want to know what's the trials and you want to know what's the trials and you want to know what's crazy about these trials. This is humans crazy about these trials. This is humans crazy about these trials. This is humans and not just rats. and not just rats. and not just rats. &gt;&gt; This is human trials. So you get phase &gt;&gt; This is human trials. So you get phase &gt;&gt; This is human trials. So you get phase two trials. In fact, I think I saved two trials. In fact, I think I saved two trials. In fact, I think I saved some of the the an article on it. Dude, some of the the an article on it. Dude, some of the the an article on it. Dude, it's uh it's actually a commercial for it's uh it's actually a commercial for it's uh it's actually a commercial for uh for Reddit a true time. uh for Reddit a true time. uh for Reddit a true time. &gt;&gt; So, if it's in phase two, s what's &gt;&gt; So, if it's in phase two, s what's &gt;&gt; So, if it's in phase two, s what's realistic when it when when you can get realistic when it when when you can get realistic when it when when you can get it through a real pharmacy, how how far it through a real pharmacy, how how far it through a real pharmacy, how how far out out out &gt;&gt; it Well, they've got a prediction on &gt;&gt; it Well, they've got a prediction on &gt;&gt; it Well, they've got a prediction on they've got they still have to go they've got they still have to go they've got they still have to go through phase No, it's actually phase through phase No, it's actually phase through phase No, it's actually phase three. Sorry. It was a phase three three. Sorry. It was a phase three three. Sorry. It was a phase three trial. So depending on how the the FDA trial. So depending on how the the FDA trial. So depending on how the the FDA views these trials, it'll it'll if it views these trials, it'll it'll if it views these trials, it'll it'll if it passes, then it can become a drug. It passes, then it can become a drug. It passes, then it can become a drug. It can be something that we can can be something that we can can be something that we can &gt;&gt; now um ompic mjaro. Are they all still &gt;&gt; now um ompic mjaro. Are they all still &gt;&gt; now um ompic mjaro. Are they all still on GLP1 or have they actually got some on GLP1 or have they actually got some on GLP1 or have they actually got some and tepatide are the the the chemical and tepatide are the the the chemical and tepatide are the the the chemical names. I don't know what the brand I names. I don't know what the brand I names. I don't know what the brand I know is someide. I think Mjaro's know is someide. I think Mjaro's know is someide. I think Mjaro's turppide if I'm not mistaken. turppide if I'm not mistaken. turppide if I'm not mistaken. &gt;&gt; No, look that up cuz I don't I don't &gt;&gt; No, look that up cuz I don't I don't &gt;&gt; No, look that up cuz I don't I don't know if they've jumped to trespide yet. know if they've jumped to trespide yet. know if they've jumped to trespide yet. No, No, No, &gt;&gt; some have. Have they? Yeah, I don't &gt;&gt; some have. Have they? Yeah, I don't &gt;&gt; some have. Have they? Yeah, I don't know. No, no, no. I know. I know. You know. No, no, no. I know. I know. You know. No, no, no. I know. I know. You can get those. can get those. can get those. &gt;&gt; No, no. Actually, a big brand. &gt;&gt; No, no. Actually, a big brand. &gt;&gt; No, no. Actually, a big brand. &gt;&gt; Okay. That's what I'm wondering. I want &gt;&gt; Okay. That's what I'm wondering. I want &gt;&gt; Okay. That's what I'm wondering. I want cuz cuz last I I knew OMIC was still cuz cuz last I I knew OMIC was still cuz cuz last I I knew OMIC was still messing with semiglutide. messing with semiglutide. messing with semiglutide. &gt;&gt; No. Yeah. Seaglutide is that's the first &gt;&gt; No. Yeah. Seaglutide is that's the first &gt;&gt; No. Yeah. Seaglutide is that's the first one. That's the first one. Okay. one. That's the first one. Okay. one. That's the first one. Okay. &gt;&gt; So, Reddit True Tide uh came out uh and &gt;&gt; So, Reddit True Tide uh came out uh and &gt;&gt; So, Reddit True Tide uh came out uh and they're doing research on it and it's they're doing research on it and it's they're doing research on it and it's called and again it's a GLP3 called and again it's a GLP3 called and again it's a GLP3 &gt;&gt; and phase two trials are crazy. Phase &gt;&gt; and phase two trials are crazy. Phase &gt;&gt; and phase two trials are crazy. Phase three trials come out. Bro, say just three trials come out. Bro, say just three trials come out. Bro, say just trip off this. Okay. A significant trip off this. Okay. A significant trip off this. Okay. A significant percentage of the people dropped out of percentage of the people dropped out of percentage of the people dropped out of the study. So these are participants. the study. So these are participants. the study. So these are participants. What do What do What do &gt;&gt; you mean dropped out? Why? Why &gt;&gt; you mean dropped out? Why? Why &gt;&gt; you mean dropped out? Why? Why &gt;&gt; they quit? This and this is one of the &gt;&gt; they quit? This and this is one of the &gt;&gt; they quit? This and this is one of the things of a trial. Will people drop out things of a trial. Will people drop out things of a trial. Will people drop out because of side effects or because of Do because of side effects or because of Do because of side effects or because of Do you want to know why? Okay. Eight. So a you want to know why? Okay. Eight. So a you want to know why? Okay. Eight. So a significant percentage dropped out significant percentage dropped out significant percentage dropped out because you ready for this? because you ready for this? because you ready for this? &gt;&gt; Yeah. &gt;&gt; Yeah. &gt;&gt; Yeah. &gt;&gt; Excessive weight loss. &gt;&gt; Excessive weight loss. &gt;&gt; Excessive weight loss. &gt;&gt; They were losing too much weight. &gt;&gt; They were losing too much weight. &gt;&gt; They were losing too much weight. &gt;&gt; That's like a commercial. Like that's in &gt;&gt; That's like a commercial. Like that's in &gt;&gt; That's like a commercial. Like that's in a cell. a cell. a cell. &gt;&gt; That's crazy. &gt;&gt; That's crazy. &gt;&gt; That's crazy. &gt;&gt; Yes. because it caused such a crazy &gt;&gt; Yes. because it caused such a crazy &gt;&gt; Yes. because it caused such a crazy amount of weight loss. Now the amount of weight loss. Now the amount of weight loss. Now the bodybuilders and the people I know who bodybuilders and the people I know who bodybuilders and the people I know who take reatride they're like comparing it take reatride they're like comparing it take reatride they're like comparing it to trespatus they're like it's it's to trespatus they're like it's it's to trespatus they're like it's it's Godzilla in comparison it's so Godzilla in comparison it's so Godzilla in comparison it's so effective. So I have a friend who did a effective. So I have a friend who did a effective. So I have a friend who did a bodybuilding competition went on retreat bodybuilding competition went on retreat bodybuilding competition went on retreat tide. What does that say right there? tide. What does that say right there? tide. What does that say right there? &gt;&gt; Yeah. So Zepbound and Monero or Tzepide. &gt;&gt; Yeah. So Zepbound and Monero or Tzepide. &gt;&gt; Yeah. So Zepbound and Monero or Tzepide. &gt;&gt; Okay. So that means Ozep is still using &gt;&gt; Okay. So that means Ozep is still using &gt;&gt; Okay. So that means Ozep is still using the original one. the original one. the original one. &gt;&gt; Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. &gt;&gt; Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. &gt;&gt; Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. &gt;&gt; So &gt;&gt; So &gt;&gt; So &gt;&gt; and overdosing. &gt;&gt; and overdosing. &gt;&gt; and overdosing. &gt;&gt; Yeah. &gt;&gt; Yeah. &gt;&gt; Yeah. So, what I think they're going to do is So, what I think they're going to do is So, what I think they're going to do is mess with the doses, maybe lower the mess with the doses, maybe lower the mess with the doses, maybe lower the dose because it's so so powerful or dose because it's so so powerful or dose because it's so so powerful or whatever. But I have a buddy who did a whatever. But I have a buddy who did a whatever. But I have a buddy who did a bodybuilding competition. He did read a bodybuilding competition. He did read a bodybuilding competition. He did read a true tide and he's like, "Dude," he go, true tide and he's like, "Dude," he go, true tide and he's like, "Dude," he go, "And now, by the way, you're talking "And now, by the way, you're talking "And now, by the way, you're talking about pro bodybuilding. These guys are about pro bodybuilding. These guys are about pro bodybuilding. These guys are insane with how low the calories get, insane with how low the calories get, insane with how low the calories get, the cardio, it's just insane. They're the cardio, it's just insane. They're the cardio, it's just insane. They're they're hitting stage shredded. It's not they're hitting stage shredded. It's not they're hitting stage shredded. It's not healthy." He's like, "Dude," he goes, healthy." He's like, "Dude," he goes, healthy." He's like, "Dude," he goes, uh, you know, he's this guy's done a lot uh, you know, he's this guy's done a lot uh, you know, he's this guy's done a lot of competition. I'm not going to say too of competition. I'm not going to say too of competition. I'm not going to say too much because everyone will know who it much because everyone will know who it much because everyone will know who it is, but he's like, "Bro," he goes, he is, but he's like, "Bro," he goes, he is, but he's like, "Bro," he goes, he goes, "Zero appetite." goes, "Zero appetite." goes, "Zero appetite." &gt;&gt; Yeah. &gt;&gt; Yeah. &gt;&gt; Yeah. &gt;&gt; He's like, "Zero back." He goes, "I &gt;&gt; He's like, "Zero back." He goes, "I &gt;&gt; He's like, "Zero back." He goes, "I mean, I knew I knew that. I knew that mean, I knew I knew that. I knew that mean, I knew I knew that. I knew that with Drew's epit. I mean, there's a part with Drew's epit. I mean, there's a part with Drew's epit. I mean, there's a part of me that wants to show the audience of me that wants to show the audience of me that wants to show the audience &gt;&gt; because I did the first one for like &gt;&gt; because I did the first one for like &gt;&gt; because I did the first one for like really to show like for and and get really to show like for and and get really to show like for and and get perspective for training normal ass perspective for training normal ass perspective for training normal ass people." people." people." &gt;&gt; And so that was the goal. I could &gt;&gt; And so that was the goal. I could &gt;&gt; And so that was the goal. I could absolutely I could absolutely take that absolutely I could absolutely take that absolutely I could absolutely take that uh with the strategy of how do I use uh with the strategy of how do I use uh with the strategy of how do I use this to get shredded and I and I know I this to get shredded and I and I know I this to get shredded and I and I know I I would I would manage the dose a little I would I would manage the dose a little I would I would manage the dose a little bit different and and I would hit it bit different and and I would hit it bit different and and I would hit it right with that sweet spot where I still right with that sweet spot where I still right with that sweet spot where I still have an appetite and I can get what I have an appetite and I can get what I have an appetite and I can get what I need to but it just I I remember how need to but it just I I remember how need to but it just I I remember how much it just completely eliminates the much it just completely eliminates the much it just completely eliminates the noise. I had no cravings for junk food. noise. I had no cravings for junk food. noise. I had no cravings for junk food. And that is when you are dieting for a And that is when you are dieting for a And that is when you are dieting for a show and training that consistently in a show and training that consistently in a show and training that consistently in a deficit for that long. You have dreams deficit for that long. You have dreams deficit for that long. You have dreams about food all the I mean all the time I about food all the I mean all the time I about food all the I mean all the time I thought about food for weeks and weeks thought about food for weeks and weeks thought about food for weeks and weeks and weeks. and weeks. and weeks. &gt;&gt; And so to quiet that noise &gt;&gt; And so to quiet that noise &gt;&gt; And so to quiet that noise &gt;&gt; would would be the like it would make &gt;&gt; would would be the like it would make &gt;&gt; would would be the like it would make competing so much easier. competing so much easier. competing so much easier. &gt;&gt; Oh god. &gt;&gt; Oh god. &gt;&gt; Oh god. &gt;&gt; That's the hardest part. The hardest &gt;&gt; That's the hardest part. The hardest &gt;&gt; That's the hardest part. The hardest part about separates part about separates part about separates &gt;&gt; the hardest part about competing is is &gt;&gt; the hardest part about competing is is &gt;&gt; the hardest part about competing is is the diet. It's not the training part. the diet. It's not the training part. the diet. It's not the training part. lifting weights and showing the gym. A lifting weights and showing the gym. A lifting weights and showing the gym. A lot of people love that. lot of people love that. lot of people love that. &gt;&gt; It is lit. And if you know programming, &gt;&gt; It is lit. And if you know programming, &gt;&gt; It is lit. And if you know programming, that's the easy part. The hard part is that's the easy part. The hard part is that's the easy part. The hard part is can you, you know, just tough it out. can you, you know, just tough it out. can you, you know, just tough it out. That's what always deterred me from That's what always deterred me from That's what always deterred me from &gt;&gt; and stay locked in, dialed to the &gt;&gt; and stay locked in, dialed to the &gt;&gt; and stay locked in, dialed to the calorie for months. And that is what calorie for months. And that is what calorie for months. And that is what that separates the people that can get that separates the people that can get that separates the people that can get up there and do that. up there and do that. up there and do that. &gt;&gt; And if I if I was using something like &gt;&gt; And if I if I was using something like &gt;&gt; And if I if I was using something like that to quiet that Oh, bro. that to quiet that Oh, bro. that to quiet that Oh, bro. &gt;&gt; Do you know what the average weight loss &gt;&gt; Do you know what the average weight loss &gt;&gt; Do you know what the average weight loss was for the people in the study? There's was for the people in the study? There's was for the people in the study? There's 445 people 28% of their body weight. 445 people 28% of their body weight. 445 people 28% of their body weight. &gt;&gt; So we have like tell me I want to know &gt;&gt; So we have like tell me I want to know &gt;&gt; So we have like tell me I want to know the muscle I want to know the muscle. the muscle I want to know the muscle. the muscle I want to know the muscle. &gt;&gt; I don't have that I don't have the data &gt;&gt; I don't have that I don't have the data &gt;&gt; I don't have that I don't have the data on that but earlier data that I saw on that but earlier data that I saw on that but earlier data that I saw &gt;&gt; showed less muscle loss than the other &gt;&gt; showed less muscle loss than the other &gt;&gt; showed less muscle loss than the other uh than uh than uh than &gt;&gt; I remember that's what they originally &gt;&gt; I remember that's what they originally &gt;&gt; I remember that's what they originally when we were at Dr. Se's convention when we were at Dr. Se's convention when we were at Dr. Se's convention that's what uh what they were hyping that's what uh what they were hyping that's what uh what they were hyping &gt;&gt; they were alluding to it. &gt;&gt; they were alluding to it. &gt;&gt; they were alluding to it. &gt;&gt; Let me put it to you this way. A 300 &gt;&gt; Let me put it to you this way. A 300 &gt;&gt; Let me put it to you this way. A 300 pound person theoretically with this pound person theoretically with this pound person theoretically with this average weight loss on through this average weight loss on through this average weight loss on through this trial would have lost 84 pounds trial would have lost 84 pounds trial would have lost 84 pounds &gt;&gt; and how what period of time? &gt;&gt; and how what period of time? &gt;&gt; and how what period of time? &gt;&gt; Oh god, I should see how this how long &gt;&gt; Oh god, I should see how this how long &gt;&gt; Oh god, I should see how this how long the study went. That's 612. the study went. That's 612. the study went. That's 612. &gt;&gt; No, no, no, no, no. It was it was a it &gt;&gt; No, no, no, no, no. It was it was a it &gt;&gt; No, no, no, no, no. It was it was a it was a longer study. I got to look up and was a longer study. I got to look up and was a longer study. I got to look up and see how long that was. But bro, that's see how long that was. But bro, that's see how long that was. But bro, that's &gt;&gt; wild. That is so wild. I got to look up. &gt;&gt; wild. That is so wild. I got to look up. &gt;&gt; wild. That is so wild. I got to look up. 72 weeks. 72 weeks. 72 weeks. &gt;&gt; So what how long is 72 weeks? What is &gt;&gt; So what how long is 72 weeks? What is &gt;&gt; So what how long is 72 weeks? What is that? that? that? &gt;&gt; Uh 52 weeks a year. So &gt;&gt; Uh 52 weeks a year. So &gt;&gt; Uh 52 weeks a year. So &gt;&gt; Oh wow. They did over a year long. Yeah. &gt;&gt; Oh wow. They did over a year long. Yeah. &gt;&gt; Oh wow. They did over a year long. Yeah. So, they were staying on it for a while. So, they were staying on it for a while. So, they were staying on it for a while. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. &gt;&gt; Oh, I really want to know what the &gt;&gt; Oh, I really want to know what the &gt;&gt; Oh, I really want to know what the muscle is then. muscle is then. muscle is then. &gt;&gt; So do I. &gt;&gt; So do I. &gt;&gt; So do I. &gt;&gt; Yeah, that's that to me. That's &gt;&gt; Yeah, that's that to me. That's &gt;&gt; Yeah, that's that to me. That's &gt;&gt; But dude, how crazy is it that obese &gt;&gt; But dude, how crazy is it that obese &gt;&gt; But dude, how crazy is it that obese people in the study were like, I got to people in the study were like, I got to people in the study were like, I got to I got to stop this. I lost too much I got to stop this. I lost too much I got to stop this. I lost too much already. already. already. &gt;&gt; Yeah, &gt;&gt; Yeah, &gt;&gt; Yeah, &gt;&gt; that sounds to me like a commercial. &gt;&gt; that sounds to me like a commercial. &gt;&gt; that sounds to me like a commercial. &gt;&gt; Well, that also alludes to me that they &gt;&gt; Well, that also alludes to me that they &gt;&gt; Well, that also alludes to me that they knew that they were losing a ton of knew that they were losing a ton of knew that they were losing a ton of muscle. That's why you would drop out. muscle. That's why you would drop out. muscle. That's why you would drop out. You know, you don't drop out cuz you're You know, you don't drop out cuz you're You know, you don't drop out cuz you're losing too much fat. You drop out losing too much fat. You drop out losing too much fat. You drop out because you you recognize it. because you you recognize it. because you you recognize it. &gt;&gt; Yeah. You're getting worried that you're &gt;&gt; Yeah. You're getting worried that you're &gt;&gt; Yeah.

All right. So I you got to game I play. All right. So I you got to game I play. All right. So I want to talk to you guys about so one of want to talk to you guys about so one of want to talk to you guys about so one of our our partners row I want to talk our our partners row I want to talk our our partners row I want to talk about liposomaal technology which has about liposomaal technology which has about liposomaal technology which has been around for a long time and it's one been around for a long time and it's one been around for a long time and it's one of their uh one of their selling points of their uh one of their selling points of their uh one of their selling points and so I brought up some some just some and so I brought up some some just some and so I brought up some some just some stuff on liposomaal technology which I stuff on liposomaal technology which I stuff on liposomaal technology which I think um you know people need to know think um you know people need to know think um you know people need to know about. So liposomes are essentially about. So liposomes are essentially about. So liposomes are essentially they're microscopic bubbles of they're microscopic bubbles of they're microscopic bubbles of essentially a type of a fat phosphoipid essentially a type of a fat phosphoipid essentially a type of a fat phosphoipid that surrounds the compound and it that surrounds the compound and it that surrounds the compound and it protects it and brings it to target protects it and brings it to target protects it and brings it to target tissues. By the way they use this for tissues. By the way they use this for tissues. By the way they use this for drugs. drugs. drugs. &gt;&gt; So pharmaceuticals who use liposomaal &gt;&gt; So pharmaceuticals who use liposomaal &gt;&gt; So pharmaceuticals who use liposomaal technology but with supplements I looked technology but with supplements I looked technology but with supplements I looked up the data. Do you know how much it up the data. Do you know how much it up the data. Do you know how much it increases bioavailability? increases bioavailability? increases bioavailability? &gt;&gt; Oh most a bunch. &gt;&gt; Oh most a bunch. &gt;&gt; Oh most a bunch. &gt;&gt; Five to 10 times. &gt;&gt; Five to 10 times. &gt;&gt; Five to 10 times. &gt;&gt; Yeah. &gt;&gt; Yeah. &gt;&gt; Yeah. &gt;&gt; Five to 10 times. You know, I never &gt;&gt; Five to 10 times. You know, I never &gt;&gt; Five to 10 times. You know, I never heard about that until like maybe a few heard about that until like maybe a few heard about that until like maybe a few years ago. And I feel like so many years ago. And I feel like so many years ago. And I feel like so many supplement companies are now moving in supplement companies are now moving in supplement companies are now moving in that direction. that direction. that direction. &gt;&gt; I'll give you an example. Glutathione. &gt;&gt; I'll give you an example. Glutathione. &gt;&gt; I'll give you an example. Glutathione. If you take glutathione and it's not If you take glutathione and it's not If you take glutathione and it's not liposomaal, you're wasting your time. liposomaal, you're wasting your time. liposomaal, you're wasting your time. &gt;&gt; It's a total waste. &gt;&gt; It's a total waste. &gt;&gt; It's a total waste. &gt;&gt; You you in fact the old way of taking &gt;&gt; You you in fact the old way of taking &gt;&gt; You you in fact the old way of taking glutathione only used to be injection glutathione only used to be injection glutathione only used to be injection because if you took it orally, you get because if you took it orally, you get because if you took it orally, you get no no rise in glutathione in your no no rise in glutathione in your no no rise in glutathione in your system. It was just a complete waste of system. It was just a complete waste of system. It was just a complete waste of time. time. time. &gt;&gt; Yeah. &gt;&gt; Yeah. &gt;&gt; Yeah. &gt;&gt; Liposomal glutathione definitely works &gt;&gt; Liposomal glutathione definitely works &gt;&gt; Liposomal glutathione definitely works &gt;&gt; because it's encapsulated. And so what &gt;&gt; because it's encapsulated. And so what &gt;&gt; because it's encapsulated. And so what Rorow does with their products, they Rorow does with their products, they Rorow does with their products, they have creatine, NAD, they have have creatine, NAD, they have have creatine, NAD, they have glutathione, they have magnesium, all of glutathione, they have magnesium, all of glutathione, they have magnesium, all of them have this liposomaal tech uh them have this liposomaal tech uh them have this liposomaal tech uh technology. So when you if you use those technology. So when you if you use those technology. So when you if you use those things in other ways and then you try things in other ways and then you try things in other ways and then you try Rose, you're probably going to get Rose, you're probably going to get Rose, you're probably going to get better better absorption. better better absorption. better better absorption. &gt;&gt; Well, we've been on the liposomaal uh &gt;&gt; Well, we've been on the liposomaal uh &gt;&gt; Well, we've been on the liposomaal uh glutathione kick for a while, but I I glutathione kick for a while, but I I glutathione kick for a while, but I I like row better because of the it's in like row better because of the it's in like row better because of the it's in the bottle and I can you can just squirt the bottle and I can you can just squirt the bottle and I can you can just squirt it in like it's so it's so much more it in like it's so it's so much more it in like it's so it's so much more convenient. Yeah. And I've been convenient. Yeah. And I've been convenient. Yeah. And I've been consistent with that, too. You just consistent with that, too. You just consistent with that, too. You just reminded me that I hadn't done today. reminded me that I hadn't done today. reminded me that I hadn't done today. &gt;&gt; That's good. All right. I got one more &gt;&gt; That's good. All right. I got one more &gt;&gt; That's good. All right. I got one more study for you guys. It's uh it's making study for you guys. It's uh it's making study for you guys. It's uh it's making Yeah, you guys haven't read this. No Yeah, you guys haven't read this. No Yeah, you guys haven't read this. No way. No, I'm just kidding. You guys way. No, I'm just kidding.

I've were really big in this community. I've were really big in this community. I've told this story before but their kid was told this story before but their kid was told this story before but their kid was struggling in elementary school. Like struggling in elementary school. Like struggling in elementary school. Like really struggling. And these were two really struggling. And these were two really struggling. And these were two really smart people. they were really smart people. they were really smart people. they were successful in tech, they were able to successful in tech, they were able to successful in tech, they were able to retire. So, they say, "Hey, we're going retire. So, they say, "Hey, we're going retire. So, they say, "Hey, we're going to homeschool this kid." And at the to homeschool this kid." And at the to homeschool this kid." And at the time, I remember thinking like, "That's time, I remember thinking like, "That's time, I remember thinking like, "That's not a good idea." Because I had that not a good idea." Because I had that not a good idea." Because I had that kind of uh, you know, just that kind of uh, you know, just that kind of uh, you know, just that mentality around it. Well, anyway, this mentality around it.

But when you actually condense it down to when you actually condense it down to when you actually condense it down to what you need to do and just like hone what you need to do and just like hone what you need to do and just like hone in and focus on what what's getting in and focus on what what's getting in and focus on what what's getting done, it's like goes time. Yeah. done, it's like goes time. Yeah. done, it's like goes time. Yeah. &gt;&gt; Yeah. That's what killed me about school &gt;&gt; Yeah. That's what killed me about school &gt;&gt; Yeah.

It's just wasted like time and and effort and effort and effort and &gt;&gt; it's so inefficient, you know, and that &gt;&gt; it's so inefficient, you know, and that &gt;&gt; it's so inefficient, you know, and that just I don't know. Well, they always just I don't know. Well, they always just I don't know. Well, they always frustrated me. frustrated me. frustrated me. &gt;&gt; The the old argument against the two of &gt;&gt; The the old argument against the two of &gt;&gt; The the old argument against the two of those used to be the socialization. those used to be the socialization. those used to be the socialization. &gt;&gt; I know &gt;&gt; I know &gt;&gt; I know &gt;&gt; that used to be the big argument. &gt;&gt; that used to be the big argument. &gt;&gt; that used to be the big argument. &gt;&gt; Yeah, but that's if you just keep your &gt;&gt; Yeah, but that's if you just keep your &gt;&gt; Yeah, but that's if you just keep your kid inside alone and that's all you do. kid inside alone and that's all you do. kid inside alone and that's all you do. Uh but they do activities outside of Uh but they do activities outside of Uh but they do activities outside of school sports. You put them in. school sports. You put them in. school sports. You put them in. &gt;&gt; It would be interesting to see how many &gt;&gt; It would be interesting to see how many &gt;&gt; It would be interesting to see how many cuz I do know I mean I have family that cuz I do know I mean I have family that cuz I do know I mean I have family that that home school. Yeah. Yeah. And the that home school. Yeah. Yeah. And the that home school. Yeah. Yeah. And the kids are amazing. Some of the best kids kids are amazing. Some of the best kids kids are amazing. Some of the best kids I've ever been around. So, um but I also I've ever been around. So, um but I also I've ever been around. So, um but I also know they they they were very proactive know they they they were very proactive know they they they were very proactive about those things. So, it would be about those things. So, it would be about those things. So, it would be interesting to see if you if you took interesting to see if you if you took interesting to see if you if you took all the homesooled parents, all the homesooled parents, all the homesooled parents, &gt;&gt; uh, how many of them do a good job of &gt;&gt; uh, how many of them do a good job of &gt;&gt; uh, how many of them do a good job of actually doing that because I think I actually doing that because I think I actually doing that because I think I could also see how easily you could could also see how easily you could could also see how easily you could isolate your kids. You know what I'm isolate your kids. You know what I'm isolate your kids. You know what I'm saying? Because it's just like you're saying? Because it's just like you're saying? Because it's just like you're home you're home all day anyways and home you're home all day anyways and home you're home all day anyways and it's like, you know, it's like, you know, it's like, you know, &gt;&gt; maybe the real effort is to get them &gt;&gt; maybe the real effort is to get them &gt;&gt; maybe the real effort is to get them involved in a lot of other like involved in a lot of other like involved in a lot of other like extracurricular things. extracurricular things. extracurricular things. &gt;&gt; Have you guys seen the data? I don't &gt;&gt; Have you guys seen the data? I don't &gt;&gt; Have you guys seen the data? I don't know what the exact numbers are. Maybe know what the exact numbers are. Maybe know what the exact numbers are. Maybe Doug can find these, but the percentage Doug can find these, but the percentage Doug can find these, but the percentage of kids who are homeschooled versus of kids who are homeschooled versus of kids who are homeschooled versus traditional education that then follow traditional education that then follow traditional education that then follow that then have their parents' values as that then have their parents' values as that then have their parents' values as they get older. In other words, if you they get older. In other words, if you they get older. In other words, if you homeschool your kids, what percentage of homeschool your kids, what percentage of homeschool your kids, what percentage of those kids will have your same similar those kids will have your same similar those kids will have your same similar values versus values versus values versus &gt;&gt; 80% &gt;&gt; 80% &gt;&gt; 80% 90%. It's crazy. You put them in these 90%. It's crazy. You put them in these 90%. It's crazy. You put them in these these systems, these, you know, these systems, these, you know, these systems, these, you know, especially especially especially &gt;&gt; indoctrinated. Yeah. Cuz they're &gt;&gt; indoctrinated. Yeah. Cuz they're &gt;&gt; indoctrinated. Yeah. Cuz they're &gt;&gt; Oh my god. Then then you What happened &gt;&gt; Oh my god. Then then you What happened &gt;&gt; Oh my god. Then then you What happened to my kid? My kid's like crazy. uh and to my kid? My kid's like crazy. uh and to my kid? My kid's like crazy. uh and it's because they adopted these other it's because they adopted these other it's because they adopted these other &gt;&gt; I wonder too how much like uh like it &gt;&gt; I wonder too how much like uh like it &gt;&gt; I wonder too how much like uh like it matters too how much the the parent is matters too how much the the parent is matters too how much the the parent is involved on a daily basis with the kids involved on a daily basis with the kids involved on a daily basis with the kids school work too cuz I think that school work too cuz I think that school work too cuz I think that probably plays a huge role like that's probably plays a huge role like that's probably plays a huge role like that's one of the things I love about Max's one of the things I love about Max's one of the things I love about Max's school um is that it they force us to school um is that it they force us to school um is that it they force us to engage like I can't a week can't go by engage like I can't a week can't go by engage like I can't a week can't go by that I can't be involved as a parent in that I can't be involved as a parent in that I can't be involved as a parent in the schoolwork and so that's part of the the schoolwork and so that's part of the the schoolwork and so that's part of the schoolwork is he has they integrate the schoolwork is he has they integrate the schoolwork is he has they integrate the parents parents parents &gt;&gt; and in order for him to to be able to &gt;&gt; and in order for him to to be able to &gt;&gt; and in order for him to to be able to complete it so Do you have percentages complete it so Do you have percentages complete it so Do you have percentages on that, Doug? on that, Doug? on that, Doug? &gt;&gt; I don't see any percentage. &gt;&gt; I don't see any percentage. &gt;&gt; I don't see any percentage. &gt;&gt; If you could change uh Yeah. &gt;&gt; If you could change uh Yeah. &gt;&gt; If you could change uh Yeah. &gt;&gt; Why he's living that speaking?

Um, so my question is going to be Um, so my question is going to be Um, so my question is going to be regarding the negative effects of an regarding the negative effects of an regarding the negative effects of an imbalance in the body. Um, so four years imbalance in the body. Um, so four years imbalance in the body. Um, so four years ago, I was diagnosed with severe TMJ. ago, I was diagnosed with severe TMJ. ago, I was diagnosed with severe TMJ. Over those last four years, I have had Over those last four years, I have had Over those last four years, I have had three jaw surgeries, the most recent three jaw surgeries, the most recent three jaw surgeries, the most recent being a full joint replacement, and I being a full joint replacement, and I being a full joint replacement, and I still might need a fourth uh surgery. Uh still might need a fourth uh surgery. Uh still might need a fourth uh surgery. Uh after my first surgery, my jaw pain after my first surgery, my jaw pain after my first surgery, my jaw pain started to get worse and within that started to get worse and within that started to get worse and within that year, I started having a lot of anterior year, I started having a lot of anterior year, I started having a lot of anterior ankle pain. As my jaw progressively got ankle pain. As my jaw progressively got ankle pain. As my jaw progressively got even worse, yet so did my lower body even worse, yet so did my lower body even worse, yet so did my lower body pains. My feet and shins also started to pains. My feet and shins also started to pains. My feet and shins also started to become a chronic problem. It has become become a chronic problem. It has become become a chronic problem. It has become so bad now that most days I can only so bad now that most days I can only so bad now that most days I can only take my dog for maybe a 20 minute walk take my dog for maybe a 20 minute walk take my dog for maybe a 20 minute walk and some days I can't even do that. Um, and some days I can't even do that. Um, and some days I can't even do that. Um, I've tried everything I've tried everything I've tried everything um possible so far.

Um, supplements, air compression boots, Um, supplements, air compression boots, Um, supplements, air compression boots, ice, heat rest, stretching mobility, and ice, heat rest, stretching mobility, and ice, heat rest, stretching mobility, and I got custom insoles I got custom insoles I got custom insoles um from my podiatrist. um from my podiatrist. um from my podiatrist. So, my podiatrist had recently sent me So, my podiatrist had recently sent me So, my podiatrist had recently sent me for an MRI on my ankles just before I for an MRI on my ankles just before I for an MRI on my ankles just before I had um heard back from you guys. I did had um heard back from you guys. I did had um heard back from you guys. I did get the results back. Um I just haven't get the results back. Um I just haven't get the results back. Um I just haven't had a chance to meet with him yet to had a chance to meet with him yet to had a chance to meet with him yet to like go through it all, but I kind of like go through it all, but I kind of like go through it all, but I kind of have the gist of it if you guys you guys have the gist of it if you guys you guys have the gist of it if you guys you guys want that information. want that information. want that information. &gt;&gt; Yeah. &gt;&gt; Yeah. &gt;&gt; Yeah. &gt;&gt; Okay. I'm gonna probably screw up these &gt;&gt; Okay. I'm gonna probably screw up these &gt;&gt; Okay. I'm gonna probably screw up these some of these words, but um so on both some of these words, but um so on both some of these words, but um so on both ankles they're showing an elongated ankles they're showing an elongated ankles they're showing an elongated appearance of the pionis brevis and appearance of the pionis brevis and appearance of the pionis brevis and slight difference of the anterior slight difference of the anterior slight difference of the anterior toibular ligaments. Um left ankle has toibular ligaments. Um left ankle has toibular ligaments. Um left ankle has tiny dorsal osteopittes. tiny dorsal osteopittes. tiny dorsal osteopittes. Right ankle has some thickening in the Right ankle has some thickening in the Right ankle has some thickening in the ATFL ATFL ATFL trace fluid in the tendon sheath and trace fluid in the tendon sheath and trace fluid in the tendon sheath and remote tail nvicular injury remote tail nvicular injury remote tail nvicular injury uh of so the ATFL it was complete uh of so the ATFL it was complete uh of so the ATFL it was complete without ruptures but most likely from without ruptures but most likely from without ruptures but most likely from prior lowgrade sprains. I did play prior lowgrade sprains. I did play prior lowgrade sprains. I did play basketball a lot in school but that was basketball a lot in school but that was basketball a lot in school but that was almost 20 years ago now. Um, almost 20 years ago now. Um, almost 20 years ago now. Um, I gave these MRI results to my new I gave these MRI results to my new I gave these MRI results to my new osteopath and she showed me kind of osteopath and she showed me kind of osteopath and she showed me kind of where all the areas connect from the jaw where all the areas connect from the jaw where all the areas connect from the jaw to the feet and the ankles and such. to the feet and the ankles and such. to the feet and the ankles and such. &gt;&gt; Um, and then my nervous system. &gt;&gt; Um, and then my nervous system. &gt;&gt; Um, and then my nervous system. Uh, so we discussed the possibility that Uh, so we discussed the possibility that Uh, so we discussed the possibility that my severe jaw pain and inflammation my severe jaw pain and inflammation my severe jaw pain and inflammation could have affected these other areas could have affected these other areas could have affected these other areas and past minor injuries. She also noted and past minor injuries. She also noted and past minor injuries. She also noted signs of dysfunction in my perryioium signs of dysfunction in my perryioium signs of dysfunction in my perryioium system and may possibly have myofascial system and may possibly have myofascial system and may possibly have myofascial pain syndrome. pain syndrome. pain syndrome. Uh before I started this osteopath, Uh before I started this osteopath, Uh before I started this osteopath, everyone kind of always told me just to everyone kind of always told me just to everyone kind of always told me just to rest, relax, don't overdo it. Um which rest, relax, don't overdo it. Um which rest, relax, don't overdo it. Um which I've been doing. I've been doing. I've been doing. I haven't worked in like three years I haven't worked in like three years I haven't worked in like three years because of all of this. and my pain has because of all of this. and my pain has because of all of this. and my pain has just progressively gotten worse and just progressively gotten worse and just progressively gotten worse and worse even within the last couple weeks. worse even within the last couple weeks. worse even within the last couple weeks. &gt;&gt; So, I'm just not sure like how I could &gt;&gt; So, I'm just not sure like how I could &gt;&gt; So, I'm just not sure like how I could do any less. Um, do any less. Um, do any less. Um, so I'm just wondering what your guys' so I'm just wondering what your guys' so I'm just wondering what your guys' thoughts and opinions are on the idea thoughts and opinions are on the idea thoughts and opinions are on the idea that my jaw could be affecting my my that my jaw could be affecting my my that my jaw could be affecting my my feet and ankles. Uh, as the last time I feet and ankles. Uh, as the last time I feet and ankles. Uh, as the last time I did see my podiatrist, he laughed at me did see my podiatrist, he laughed at me did see my podiatrist, he laughed at me for even suggesting that that that's a for even suggesting that that that's a for even suggesting that that that's a possibility. possibility. possibility. So, I just don't understand why all of a So, I just don't understand why all of a So, I just don't understand why all of a sudden this is coming back. Yeah. sudden this is coming back. Yeah. sudden this is coming back. Yeah. &gt;&gt; Or this is coming into my ankles and &gt;&gt; Or this is coming into my ankles and &gt;&gt; Or this is coming into my ankles and feet just like with a vengeance. feet just like with a vengeance. feet just like with a vengeance. &gt;&gt; Yeah. Really, really sorry you're going &gt;&gt; Yeah. Really, really sorry you're going &gt;&gt; Yeah. Really, really sorry you're going through that. One of the most through that. One of the most through that. One of the most challenging things challenging things challenging things is um is to deal with chronic pain and is um is to deal with chronic pain and is um is to deal with chronic pain and then to not be able to find a solution then to not be able to find a solution then to not be able to find a solution or a root cause. That can be super or a root cause. That can be super or a root cause. That can be super frustrating. And you said you've been frustrating. And you said you've been frustrating. And you said you've been dealing with this for years. Uh so dealing with this for years. Uh so dealing with this for years. Uh so that's that's really really tough. that's that's really really tough. that's that's really really tough. &gt;&gt; Uh theoretically &gt;&gt; Uh theoretically &gt;&gt; Uh theoretically um pain and dysfunction in any part of um pain and dysfunction in any part of um pain and dysfunction in any part of the body can affect any other part of the body can affect any other part of the body can affect any other part of the body the body the body &gt;&gt; for sure. &gt;&gt; for sure. &gt;&gt; for sure. &gt;&gt; Uh and we could we could have &gt;&gt; Uh and we could we could have &gt;&gt; Uh and we could we could have physiological you know movement physiological you know movement physiological you know movement explanations but I think the easiest explanations but I think the easiest explanations but I think the easiest explanation is if you hurt a lot you're explanation is if you hurt a lot you're explanation is if you hurt a lot you're going to move differently. Okay. So and going to move differently. Okay. So and going to move differently. Okay. So and it doesn't matter where you hurt. if it doesn't matter where you hurt. if it doesn't matter where you hurt. if it's chronic and in pain, it's chronic and in pain, it's chronic and in pain, uh you're going to move differently uh you're going to move differently uh you're going to move differently because you're constantly in pain. So, because you're constantly in pain. So, because you're constantly in pain. So, that's possible. There's other few areas that's possible. There's other few areas that's possible. There's other few areas that I would look if I were you, though. that I would look if I were you, though. that I would look if I were you, though. &gt;&gt; Uh because it could it sounds like &gt;&gt; Uh because it could it sounds like &gt;&gt; Uh because it could it sounds like potentially there's also something potentially there's also something potentially there's also something systemic systemic systemic &gt;&gt; going on. So, I would look for things &gt;&gt; going on. So, I would look for things &gt;&gt; going on. So, I would look for things that could cause um changes uh to how that could cause um changes uh to how that could cause um changes uh to how your body perceives pain systemically, your body perceives pain systemically, your body perceives pain systemically, things that may cause inflammation things that may cause inflammation things that may cause inflammation for example, or things that may cause uh for example, or things that may cause uh for example, or things that may cause uh dysfunction uh in a systemic way. Um I dysfunction uh in a systemic way. Um I dysfunction uh in a systemic way. Um I would test for uh heavy metal toxicity, would test for uh heavy metal toxicity, would test for uh heavy metal toxicity, mold exposure. mold exposure. mold exposure. Uh I would test for parasites Uh I would test for parasites Uh I would test for parasites all three of which can cause pain to pop all three of which can cause pain to pop all three of which can cause pain to pop up in different parts of the body and up in different parts of the body and up in different parts of the body and then uh what tends to be kind of then uh what tends to be kind of then uh what tends to be kind of signature with those things is you'll signature with those things is you'll signature with those things is you'll have pain in one area then it pops up in have pain in one area then it pops up in have pain in one area then it pops up in another area then it pops up in another another area then it pops up in another another area then it pops up in another area and then before you know it you're area and then before you know it you're area and then before you know it you're kind of hurting all over. Okay. So I kind of hurting all over. Okay. So I kind of hurting all over. Okay. So I would look at those things and you can would look at those things and you can would look at those things and you can get tested for mold, heavy metal and uh get tested for mold, heavy metal and uh get tested for mold, heavy metal and uh and parasites just to rule them out. uh and parasites just to rule them out. uh and parasites just to rule them out. uh because I have worked with people where because I have worked with people where because I have worked with people where they dealt with something similar to they dealt with something similar to they dealt with something similar to this uh and it was it was also this uh and it was it was also this uh and it was it was also accompanied by um foggy you know feeling accompanied by um foggy you know feeling accompanied by um foggy you know feeling foggy minded and uh and they did have foggy minded and uh and they did have foggy minded and uh and they did have mold toxicity and once they were able to mold toxicity and once they were able to mold toxicity and once they were able to u or mold exposure once they were able u or mold exposure once they were able u or mold exposure once they were able to solve that everything kind of went to solve that everything kind of went to solve that everything kind of went away. The other op the other thing is away. The other op the other thing is away. The other op the other thing is this um we can't separate it's this um we can't separate it's this um we can't separate it's impossible to separate separate the impossible to separate separate the impossible to separate separate the physiological from the psychological physiological from the psychological physiological from the psychological and so um and it could look like this. and so um and it could look like this. and so um and it could look like this. It could look like you have uh chronic It could look like you have uh chronic It could look like you have uh chronic pain from actual dysfunction, but then pain from actual dysfunction, but then pain from actual dysfunction, but then it causes so much uh distress it causes so much uh distress it causes so much uh distress uh so much of an interference and uh so much of an interference and uh so much of an interference and interruption to your life um that uh interruption to your life um that uh interruption to your life um that uh it's you start and this just this is it's you start and this just this is it's you start and this just this is literally for lack of a better term literally for lack of a better term literally for lack of a better term because whenever I say this people's because whenever I say this people's because whenever I say this people's reaction are like oh what you think it's reaction are like oh what you think it's reaction are like oh what you think it's all in my head well pain is always all all in my head well pain is always all all in my head well pain is always all in your head no matter what even if I in your head no matter what even if I in your head no matter what even if I cut your arm off the pain that you cut your arm off the pain that you cut your arm off the pain that you perceive is in your head. So, it's not perceive is in your head. So, it's not perceive is in your head. So, it's not like you're making it up, but um the like you're making it up, but um the like you're making it up, but um the trauma that can come from chronic pain, trauma that can come from chronic pain, trauma that can come from chronic pain, especially if it's a major interference especially if it's a major interference especially if it's a major interference or interruption into your life, like you or interruption into your life, like you or interruption into your life, like you can't work, you relationships suffer, can't work, you relationships suffer, can't work, you relationships suffer, and it's just this this this it's just and it's just this this this it's just and it's just this this this it's just there all the time. It can cause this uh there all the time. It can cause this uh there all the time. It can cause this uh scenario where you have pain all over scenario where you have pain all over scenario where you have pain all over your body. But I would first your body. But I would first your body. But I would first rule out any kind of uh you know rule out any kind of uh you know rule out any kind of uh you know measurable physiological measurable physiological measurable physiological uh condition or issue. Now you're going uh condition or issue. Now you're going uh condition or issue. Now you're going to to osteopaths um and they're going to to to osteopaths um and they're going to to to osteopaths um and they're going to they're going to you know image you. they're going to you know image you. they're going to you know image you. They're going to look at the joints. They're going to look at the joints. They're going to look at the joints. What it sounds like with your ankles is What it sounds like with your ankles is What it sounds like with your ankles is what you would expect if someone has what you would expect if someone has what you would expect if someone has ankle pain. It doesn't sound like ankle pain. It doesn't sound like ankle pain. It doesn't sound like there's this big red flag. Uh but it there's this big red flag. Uh but it there's this big red flag. Uh but it does like like I would expect to see does like like I would expect to see does like like I would expect to see something if you had pain. Um, but I something if you had pain. Um, but I something if you had pain. Um, but I wouldn't, you know, if you were my wouldn't, you know, if you were my wouldn't, you know, if you were my friend, I wouldn't rush to surgery. friend, I wouldn't rush to surgery. friend, I wouldn't rush to surgery. &gt;&gt; Mm- &gt;&gt; Mm- &gt;&gt; Mm- &gt;&gt; until we ruled out some of this other &gt;&gt; until we ruled out some of this other &gt;&gt; until we ruled out some of this other stuff. Uh, because if it's not, if the stuff. Uh, because if it's not, if the stuff. Uh, because if it's not, if the surgery doesn't solve it, what you end surgery doesn't solve it, what you end surgery doesn't solve it, what you end up what ends up happening is uh a up what ends up happening is uh a up what ends up happening is uh a sequence of surgeries uh and then a sequence of surgeries uh and then a sequence of surgeries uh and then a potential loss of uh you know, mobility potential loss of uh you know, mobility potential loss of uh you know, mobility and all that stuff. So, have you had and all that stuff. So, have you had and all that stuff. So, have you had have you tested for any of the things have you tested for any of the things have you tested for any of the things that I said? Have you seen someone that I said? Have you seen someone that I said? Have you seen someone functional medicine that can do that? functional medicine that can do that? functional medicine that can do that? &gt;&gt; I have. Yeah. Um &gt;&gt; I have. Yeah. Um &gt;&gt; I have. Yeah. Um I did the Cabral um heavy metal a test. I did the Cabral um heavy metal a test. I did the Cabral um heavy metal a test. It was a couple years ago now, but um I It was a couple years ago now, but um I It was a couple years ago now, but um I just had like minimal like aluminum just had like minimal like aluminum just had like minimal like aluminum which they said most people okay which they said most people okay which they said most people okay &gt;&gt; kind of tend to have. Um, and I do see a &gt;&gt; kind of tend to have. Um, and I do see a &gt;&gt; kind of tend to have. Um, and I do see a natural path here and they tested me for natural path here and they tested me for natural path here and they tested me for micotoxins. Okay. micotoxins. Okay. micotoxins. Okay. &gt;&gt; Um, a mold. And I do have I do have high &gt;&gt; Um, a mold. And I do have I do have high &gt;&gt; Um, a mold. And I do have I do have high records of that. Um, and we've been records of that. Um, and we've been records of that. Um, and we've been working on it for a good six to eight working on it for a good six to eight working on it for a good six to eight months or so now. months or so now. months or so now. &gt;&gt; Okay. &gt;&gt; Okay. &gt;&gt; Okay. I just yeah I'm just trying to explore I just yeah I'm just trying to explore I just yeah I'm just trying to explore kind of every avenue because I know that kind of every avenue because I know that kind of every avenue because I know that the micotoxin in the sheet that he gave the micotoxin in the sheet that he gave the micotoxin in the sheet that he gave me it did show like inflammation in the me it did show like inflammation in the me it did show like inflammation in the lower legs lower legs lower legs &gt;&gt; and stuff. &gt;&gt; and stuff. &gt;&gt; and stuff. &gt;&gt; Um which I thought made sense. So I was &gt;&gt; Um which I thought made sense. So I was &gt;&gt; Um which I thought made sense. So I was that's kind of why I was going down that that's kind of why I was going down that that's kind of why I was going down that route. But then just it kind of gets route. But then just it kind of gets route. But then just it kind of gets overwhelming the more people I talk to. overwhelming the more people I talk to. overwhelming the more people I talk to. It kind of almost hinders it a little It kind of almost hinders it a little It kind of almost hinders it a little bit. But so these osteopaths, they're bit. But so these osteopaths, they're bit. But so these osteopaths, they're really great, but like um they're the really great, but like um they're the really great, but like um they're the first ones that kind of put that little first ones that kind of put that little first ones that kind of put that little seed in my head that it could be from seed in my head that it could be from seed in my head that it could be from like more so from my ankle or sorry from like more so from my ankle or sorry from like more so from my ankle or sorry from my jaw. my jaw. my jaw. &gt;&gt; Yeah. &gt;&gt; Yeah. &gt;&gt; Yeah. &gt;&gt; Is it just with the timing of it all was &gt;&gt; Is it just with the timing of it all was &gt;&gt; Is it just with the timing of it all was kind of like, oh maybe, you know, I just kind of like, oh maybe, you know, I just kind of like, oh maybe, you know, I just thought it was strange that it went thought it was strange that it went thought it was strange that it went straight to my feet and not to like straight to my feet and not to like straight to my feet and not to like upper body, but whatever. upper body, but whatever. upper body, but whatever. &gt;&gt; It's possible. I mean, it's definitely &gt;&gt; It's possible. I mean, it's definitely &gt;&gt; It's possible. I mean, it's definitely possible. Um, and I've seen, you know, possible. Um, and I've seen, you know, possible. Um, and I've seen, you know, again, like I like I said, again, like I like I said, again, like I like I said, &gt;&gt; somebody listening right now, &gt;&gt; somebody listening right now, &gt;&gt; somebody listening right now, &gt;&gt; if your uh your face and your neck were &gt;&gt; if your uh your face and your neck were &gt;&gt; if your uh your face and your neck were in constant pain, you would move in constant pain, you would move in constant pain, you would move differently. differently. differently. &gt;&gt; Yeah. Was that the only place that you &gt;&gt; Yeah. Was that the only place that you &gt;&gt; Yeah. Was that the only place that you had like an injury that you can remember had like an injury that you can remember had like an injury that you can remember from back when, like your ankles? from back when, like your ankles? from back when, like your ankles? &gt;&gt; Um, yeah. I've never really had like any &gt;&gt; Um, yeah. I've never really had like any &gt;&gt; Um, yeah. I've never really had like any sort of major like injury per se. I've sort of major like injury per se. I've sort of major like injury per se. I've only sprained my ankles and like my only sprained my ankles and like my only sprained my ankles and like my fingers um playing basketball. Mhm. fingers um playing basketball. Mhm. fingers um playing basketball. Mhm. &gt;&gt; Um maybe a wrist, but I don't think it's &gt;&gt; Um maybe a wrist, but I don't think it's &gt;&gt; Um maybe a wrist, but I don't think it's been so long. But um been so long. But um been so long. But um uh I did hyperextend my one my left knee uh I did hyperextend my one my left knee uh I did hyperextend my one my left knee um almost 10 years ago now. And it is um almost 10 years ago now. And it is um almost 10 years ago now. And it is still that was kind of I was going to still that was kind of I was going to still that was kind of I was going to try to work that into my question try to work that into my question try to work that into my question somehow, but um it is still a fairly somehow, but um it is still a fairly somehow, but um it is still a fairly weak knee. Like I just can't seem to get weak knee. Like I just can't seem to get weak knee. Like I just can't seem to get that back. Um, but there was no like that back. Um, but there was no like that back. Um, but there was no like actual injury per se. I had all the actual injury per se. I had all the actual injury per se. I had all the scans and stuff. I just kind of I scans and stuff. I just kind of I scans and stuff. I just kind of I already have double jointed knees, so I already have double jointed knees, so I already have double jointed knees, so I just kind of went back a little too far. just kind of went back a little too far. just kind of went back a little too far. &gt;&gt; Um, &gt;&gt; Um, &gt;&gt; Um, and then I had a horseback riding and then I had a horseback riding and then I had a horseback riding accident, but I didn't break anything. I accident, but I didn't break anything. I accident, but I didn't break anything. I didn't um didn't um didn't um like fracture anything. I just was like fracture anything. I just was like fracture anything. I just was bruised basically. bruised basically. bruised basically. &gt;&gt; So, nothing like too major. But &gt;&gt; So, nothing like too major. But &gt;&gt; So, nothing like too major. But &gt;&gt; Megan, with the with the with the mold &gt;&gt; Megan, with the with the with the mold &gt;&gt; Megan, with the with the with the mold test and stuff, did have you had your test and stuff, did have you had your test and stuff, did have you had your home tested to see if you have home tested to see if you have home tested to see if you have &gt;&gt; uh any mold in the house? &gt;&gt; uh any mold in the house? &gt;&gt; uh any mold in the house? &gt;&gt; No, we had just bought a new not new, &gt;&gt; No, we had just bought a new not new, &gt;&gt; No, we had just bought a new not new, but new to us um home, so I haven't done but new to us um home, so I haven't done but new to us um home, so I haven't done that. But that. But that. But &gt;&gt; how long ago? &gt;&gt; how long ago? &gt;&gt; how long ago? &gt;&gt; Um &gt;&gt; Um &gt;&gt; Um not even a year ago yet. not even a year ago yet. not even a year ago yet. &gt;&gt; Okay. Um just just double check. you &gt;&gt; Okay. Um just just double check. you &gt;&gt; Okay. Um just just double check. you might want to test just to make sure might want to test just to make sure might want to test just to make sure because it does sound a little little because it does sound a little little because it does sound a little little systemic systemic systemic &gt;&gt; uh with what's going on. Um and then &gt;&gt; uh with what's going on. Um and then &gt;&gt; uh with what's going on. Um and then don't don't don't &gt;&gt; So here's the thing with pain. You have &gt;&gt; So here's the thing with pain. You have &gt;&gt; So here's the thing with pain. You have the we can measure what's happening with the we can measure what's happening with the we can measure what's happening with pain. Um we can see the signals being pain. Um we can see the signals being pain. Um we can see the signals being sent and we can see you know sent and we can see you know sent and we can see you know inflammation inflammation inflammation but the perception of the pain is such a but the perception of the pain is such a but the perception of the pain is such a big part of it. Uh it's remarkable. I big part of it. Uh it's remarkable. I big part of it. Uh it's remarkable. I mean it's remarkable. You could talk to mean it's remarkable. You could talk to mean it's remarkable. You could talk to surgeons about when they do surgeries on surgeons about when they do surgeries on surgeons about when they do surgeries on children who don't know any better and children who don't know any better and children who don't know any better and versus adults which are you know oh man versus adults which are you know oh man versus adults which are you know oh man I'm supposed to be in a lot of pain and I'm supposed to be in a lot of pain and I'm supposed to be in a lot of pain and there's a very different kind of there's a very different kind of there's a very different kind of response. Uh my wife uh experienced this response. Uh my wife uh experienced this response. Uh my wife uh experienced this um uh very it was very acute. She had um uh very it was very acute. She had um uh very it was very acute. She had this shoulder injury. She used to travel this shoulder injury. She used to travel this shoulder injury. She used to travel with the circus and she used to do the with the circus and she used to do the with the circus and she used to do the silks and it kind of became a part of silks and it kind of became a part of silks and it kind of became a part of her identity. before that she never her identity. before that she never her identity. before that she never worked out and everything and then worked out and everything and then worked out and everything and then suddenly she was like, "Oh my god, I suddenly she was like, "Oh my god, I suddenly she was like, "Oh my god, I could do something athletic and I'm fit could do something athletic and I'm fit could do something athletic and I'm fit and I love it." And then she hurt her and I love it." And then she hurt her and I love it." And then she hurt her shoulder and you know when I started shoulder and you know when I started shoulder and you know when I started dating her, this was already years after dating her, this was already years after dating her, this was already years after she had left, she had this kind of she had left, she had this kind of she had left, she had this kind of chronic shoulder pain. And we would chronic shoulder pain. And we would chronic shoulder pain. And we would constantly do correctional exercise and constantly do correctional exercise and constantly do correctional exercise and we had gotten to the point where her we had gotten to the point where her we had gotten to the point where her mobility and strength seemed okay, but mobility and strength seemed okay, but mobility and strength seemed okay, but the shoulder pain was still there. And the shoulder pain was still there. And the shoulder pain was still there. And we had this discussion around this kind we had this discussion around this kind we had this discussion around this kind of trauma connected to the shoulder of trauma connected to the shoulder of trauma connected to the shoulder pain. and um we kind of worked on that pain. and um we kind of worked on that pain. and um we kind of worked on that and it just went away. and it just went away. and it just went away. &gt;&gt; Mhm. &gt;&gt; Mhm. &gt;&gt; Mhm. &gt;&gt; And she was like I I didn't even and I'm &gt;&gt; And she was like I I didn't even and I'm &gt;&gt; And she was like I I didn't even and I'm like well you know it changed your life like well you know it changed your life like well you know it changed your life and and I I can't imagine how much of an and and I I can't imagine how much of an and and I I can't imagine how much of an impact what you've experienced has had impact what you've experienced has had impact what you've experienced has had on your life uh and that so don't on your life uh and that so don't on your life uh and that so don't discredit that as well uh in terms of discredit that as well uh in terms of discredit that as well uh in terms of how that could potentially be how that could potentially be how that could potentially be influencing you know all of these things influencing you know all of these things influencing you know all of these things and even influ influencing the systemic and even influ influencing the systemic and even influ influencing the systemic effect effect effect &gt;&gt; uh with your immune system. But I I &gt;&gt; uh with your immune system. But I I &gt;&gt; uh with your immune system. But I I would continue to look Lyme disease would continue to look Lyme disease would continue to look Lyme disease would be another thing I would look for would be another thing I would look for would be another thing I would look for mold. mold. mold. &gt;&gt; Uh I would look for these things that &gt;&gt; Uh I would look for these things that &gt;&gt; Uh I would look for these things that can cause an immune uh kind of reaction. can cause an immune uh kind of reaction. can cause an immune uh kind of reaction. And then with exercise, I would uh train And then with exercise, I would uh train And then with exercise, I would uh train in a way that was correctional. in a way that was correctional. in a way that was correctional. Movement's always good. Sauna is always Movement's always good. Sauna is always Movement's always good. Sauna is always good. A good diet is always good. Uh but good. A good diet is always good. Uh but good. A good diet is always good. Uh but definitely one thing can affect another. definitely one thing can affect another. definitely one thing can affect another. Just just simply from the pain alone. I Just just simply from the pain alone. I Just just simply from the pain alone. I don't need to connect the dots and show don't need to connect the dots and show don't need to connect the dots and show how the system, you know, the how it's how the system, you know, the how it's how the system, you know, the how it's all connected. I think that's how all connected. I think that's how all connected. I think that's how doctors think, but it's like, you know, doctors think, but it's like, you know, doctors think, but it's like, you know, if I punched you in the face, you if I punched you in the face, you if I punched you in the face, you probably walk differently for a while probably walk differently for a while probably walk differently for a while until it healed, which theoretically until it healed, which theoretically until it healed, which theoretically could affect your ankles, knees, and could affect your ankles, knees, and could affect your ankles, knees, and everything else. everything else. everything else. &gt;&gt; Have you been able to get any relief &gt;&gt; Have you been able to get any relief &gt;&gt; Have you been able to get any relief with light movement, mobility with your with light movement, mobility with your with light movement, mobility with your ankles, or is it just kind of aggravate ankles, or is it just kind of aggravate ankles, or is it just kind of aggravate it? it? it? &gt;&gt; I feel like it just aggravates it. And &gt;&gt; I feel like it just aggravates it. And &gt;&gt; I feel like it just aggravates it. And again, that's the mental thing where I'm again, that's the mental thing where I'm again, that's the mental thing where I'm like nervous to um do too much or like, like nervous to um do too much or like, like nervous to um do too much or like, you know, like even with mobility and um you know, like even with mobility and um you know, like even with mobility and um stretching, like sometimes it'll inflame stretching, like sometimes it'll inflame stretching, like sometimes it'll inflame it and then I'm sitting on the couch it and then I'm sitting on the couch it and then I'm sitting on the couch like dying. Um or sometimes I'm okay, like dying. Um or sometimes I'm okay, like dying. Um or sometimes I'm okay, but then it's the next day it hits me. but then it's the next day it hits me. but then it's the next day it hits me. And I'm just like nervous to like I And I'm just like nervous to like I And I'm just like nervous to like I haven't been to the gym in like a year, haven't been to the gym in like a year, haven't been to the gym in like a year, but that's mostly because of my jaw but that's mostly because of my jaw but that's mostly because of my jaw because it just because it just because it just &gt;&gt; Yeah. &gt;&gt; Yeah. &gt;&gt; Yeah. &gt;&gt; like you don't realize how much it like &gt;&gt; like you don't realize how much it like &gt;&gt; like you don't realize how much it like things can pull on you and then things can pull on you and then things can pull on you and then &gt;&gt; um but like with the feet and ankles &gt;&gt; um but like with the feet and ankles &gt;&gt; um but like with the feet and ankles like they literally just started getting like they literally just started getting like they literally just started getting to like the point I'm at now which is I to like the point I'm at now which is I to like the point I'm at now which is I barely do anything um because they're so barely do anything um because they're so barely do anything um because they're so inflamed and they just like it just inflamed and they just like it just inflamed and they just like it just kills me even just to clean my house kills me even just to clean my house kills me even just to clean my house kind of thing. So, I have to break that kind of thing. So, I have to break that kind of thing. So, I have to break that up into different days. And um so, yeah, up into different days. And um so, yeah, up into different days. And um so, yeah, I haven't done a whole lot of of like I haven't done a whole lot of of like I haven't done a whole lot of of like working out or anything. And I was working out or anything. And I was working out or anything. And I was hoping that maybe you guys could talk me hoping that maybe you guys could talk me hoping that maybe you guys could talk me into getting back. into getting back. into getting back. &gt;&gt; I think I think your best approach with &gt;&gt; I think I think your best approach with &gt;&gt; I think I think your best approach with exercise is to do a little bit um every exercise is to do a little bit um every exercise is to do a little bit um every &gt;&gt; day &gt;&gt; day &gt;&gt; day &gt;&gt; when you feel okay. Uh use bands. &gt;&gt; when you feel okay. Uh use bands. &gt;&gt; when you feel okay. Uh use bands. &gt;&gt; Mhm. Correctional exercise. If you don't &gt;&gt; Mhm. Correctional exercise. If you don't &gt;&gt; Mhm. Correctional exercise. If you don't have Prime Pro, I'll send that to you. have Prime Pro, I'll send that to you. have Prime Pro, I'll send that to you. Those are the movements that I would do. Those are the movements that I would do. Those are the movements that I would do. Um, and you do you would just practice Um, and you do you would just practice Um, and you do you would just practice them a little bit here and there when them a little bit here and there when them a little bit here and there when you feel okay. When you don't squeeze to you feel okay. When you don't squeeze to you feel okay. When you don't squeeze to get a pump, get a pump, get a pump, &gt;&gt; that's it. And just kind of move through &gt;&gt; that's it. And just kind of move through &gt;&gt; that's it. And just kind of move through different ranges of motion uh in in different ranges of motion uh in in different ranges of motion uh in in those uh with those particular those uh with those particular those uh with those particular movements. But I would definitely look movements. But I would definitely look movements. But I would definitely look at things that can affect at things that can affect at things that can affect &gt;&gt; uh you systemically, lime, mold. Uh I &gt;&gt; uh you systemically, lime, mold. Uh I &gt;&gt; uh you systemically, lime, mold. Uh I would look at um any anything with the would look at um any anything with the would look at um any anything with the gut. Uh then I would look at any gut. Uh then I would look at any gut. Uh then I would look at any potential autoimmune issue. uh they potential autoimmune issue. uh they potential autoimmune issue. uh they could test for autoimmune issues uh to could test for autoimmune issues uh to could test for autoimmune issues uh to see if there's anything else like that. see if there's anything else like that. see if there's anything else like that. But those are the areas I would look But those are the areas I would look But those are the areas I would look because it sounds like it's systemic. It because it sounds like it's systemic. It because it sounds like it's systemic. It doesn't sound like it's just one area doesn't sound like it's just one area doesn't sound like it's just one area with pain with pain with pain &gt;&gt; uh and then it's just staying there. &gt;&gt; uh and then it's just staying there. &gt;&gt; uh and then it's just staying there. Sounds like it's kind Sounds like it's kind Sounds like it's kind &gt;&gt; of found a weak link that it could &gt;&gt; of found a weak link that it could &gt;&gt; of found a weak link that it could gravitate towards. Yeah. gravitate towards. Yeah. gravitate towards. Yeah. &gt;&gt; Right. Okay. Yeah, that makes sense. &gt;&gt; Right. Okay. Yeah, that makes sense. &gt;&gt; Right. Okay. Yeah, that makes sense. Yeah, I don't um I will definitely try Yeah, I don't um I will definitely try Yeah, I don't um I will definitely try to do the prime pro. I appreciate you to do the prime pro. I appreciate you to do the prime pro. I appreciate you guys sending it. Um I don't really have guys sending it. Um I don't really have guys sending it. Um I don't really have many good days, but I'll I'll definitely many good days, but I'll I'll definitely many good days, but I'll I'll definitely &gt;&gt; do a little bit here and there and just &gt;&gt; do a little bit here and there and just &gt;&gt; do a little bit here and there and just see how see how it goes cuz like nothing see how see how it goes cuz like nothing see how see how it goes cuz like nothing nothing um nothing um nothing um and that's one thing like I was with the and that's one thing like I was with the and that's one thing like I was with the red light I was I had really high hopes red light I was I had really high hopes red light I was I had really high hopes and and um with it to just show and and um with it to just show and and um with it to just show something. Um, but I'm wondering if it something. Um, but I'm wondering if it something. Um, but I'm wondering if it is so is so is so like systemic like you say if that's like systemic like you say if that's like systemic like you say if that's just not just not just not &gt;&gt; Have you tried any &gt;&gt; Have you tried any &gt;&gt; Have you tried any &gt;&gt; you've been tested for lime? &gt;&gt; you've been tested for lime? &gt;&gt; you've been tested for lime? &gt;&gt; You tried any peptides or anything yet? &gt;&gt; You tried any peptides or anything yet? &gt;&gt; You tried any peptides or anything yet? &gt;&gt; Um, I actually just started peptides &gt;&gt; Um, I actually just started peptides &gt;&gt; Um, I actually just started peptides four days ago. It's really hard to get four days ago. It's really hard to get four days ago. It's really hard to get them here them here them here &gt;&gt; in Canada. They're kind of stingy about &gt;&gt; in Canada. They're kind of stingy about &gt;&gt; in Canada. They're kind of stingy about them. So, I finally found a them. So, I finally found a them. So, I finally found a hopefully reputable uh place to get them hopefully reputable uh place to get them hopefully reputable uh place to get them from. My girlfriend's been through these from. My girlfriend's been through these from. My girlfriend's been through these guys for about a year, so she hasn't guys for about a year, so she hasn't guys for about a year, so she hasn't died yet, so I'm okay. died yet, so I'm okay. died yet, so I'm okay. &gt;&gt; Okay. &gt;&gt; Okay. &gt;&gt; Okay. &gt;&gt; So, yeah, I started um BPC 157 um as &gt;&gt; So, yeah, I started um BPC 157 um as &gt;&gt; So, yeah, I started um BPC 157 um as listening to you guys and then it has a listening to you guys and then it has a listening to you guys and then it has a mix of TP 500 mix of TP 500 mix of TP 500 &gt;&gt; in it. &gt;&gt; in it. &gt;&gt; in it. &gt;&gt; Okay. &gt;&gt; Okay. &gt;&gt; Okay. &gt;&gt; So, it's only been Yeah. Today will be &gt;&gt; So, it's only been Yeah. Today will be &gt;&gt; So, it's only been Yeah. Today will be day five. Yeah. Um day five. Yeah. Um day five. Yeah. Um &gt;&gt; you want to give that about a month or &gt;&gt; you want to give that about a month or &gt;&gt; you want to give that about a month or two two two &gt;&gt; and then like and you tested for lime. I &gt;&gt; and then like and you tested for lime. I &gt;&gt; and then like and you tested for lime. I had asked that earlier. U had asked that earlier. U had asked that earlier. U &gt;&gt; uh yeah u many many moons ago. Um it did &gt;&gt; uh yeah u many many moons ago. Um it did &gt;&gt; uh yeah u many many moons ago. Um it did come back positive. come back positive. come back positive. &gt;&gt; Um but it was yeah it was about uh 10 &gt;&gt; Um but it was yeah it was about uh 10 &gt;&gt; Um but it was yeah it was about uh 10 years ago or so. And I've we've done so years ago or so. And I've we've done so years ago or so. And I've we've done so many things to many things to many things to work through it and work through it and work through it and nothing has ever budged with it. nothing has ever budged with it. nothing has ever budged with it. &gt;&gt; Yeah. &gt;&gt; Yeah. &gt;&gt; Yeah. &gt;&gt; So that's why we're my naturopath has me &gt;&gt; So that's why we're my naturopath has me &gt;&gt; So that's why we're my naturopath has me on the miccotoxin route because he on the miccotoxin route because he on the miccotoxin route because he thinks that that could be blocking any thinks that that could be blocking any thinks that that could be blocking any sort of treatment. sort of treatment. sort of treatment. &gt;&gt; Okay. &gt;&gt; Okay. &gt;&gt; Okay. &gt;&gt; But yeah, so I do have that um as a &gt;&gt; But yeah, so I do have that um as a &gt;&gt; But yeah, so I do have that um as a natural fast standpoint. If if if I test natural fast standpoint. If if if I test natural fast standpoint. If if if I test here in Canada through like a actual here in Canada through like a actual here in Canada through like a actual medical doctor, I show as a negative. medical doctor, I show as a negative. medical doctor, I show as a negative. Yeah. So, Yeah. So, Yeah. So, &gt;&gt; it's hard to Yeah, you got some the &gt;&gt; it's hard to Yeah, you got some the &gt;&gt; it's hard to Yeah, you got some the testing is sometimes not sensitive testing is sometimes not sensitive testing is sometimes not sensitive enough. enough. enough. &gt;&gt; Um well, yeah, I wish I could give you &gt;&gt; Um well, yeah, I wish I could give you &gt;&gt; Um well, yeah, I wish I could give you &gt;&gt; a better answer. Uh but my uh my gut &gt;&gt; a better answer. Uh but my uh my gut &gt;&gt; a better answer. Uh but my uh my gut feeling is to look for something that's feeling is to look for something that's feeling is to look for something that's affecting you systemically and not not affecting you systemically and not not affecting you systemically and not not locally, you know, not like it's the locally, you know, not like it's the locally, you know, not like it's the joint, but rather why is my body uh so joint, but rather why is my body uh so joint, but rather why is my body uh so inflamed and why am I developing areas inflamed and why am I developing areas inflamed and why am I developing areas of inflammation is where I would look. of inflammation is where I would look. of inflammation is where I would look. &gt;&gt; Okay. Right. And like when you mentioned &gt;&gt; Okay. Right. And like when you mentioned &gt;&gt; Okay. Right. And like when you mentioned diet, diet, diet, I know that lots of the foods that I'm I know that lots of the foods that I'm I know that lots of the foods that I'm eating aren't um like an inflammatory eating aren't um like an inflammatory eating aren't um like an inflammatory per se because like I I'm so limited on per se because like I I'm so limited on per se because like I I'm so limited on what I can eat, right? Like uh some days what I can eat, right? Like uh some days what I can eat, right? Like uh some days I can eat ground ground beef like in a I can eat ground ground beef like in a I can eat ground ground beef like in a spaghetti sauce day or something and spaghetti sauce day or something and spaghetti sauce day or something and then some days I can barely then some days I can barely then some days I can barely &gt;&gt; Oh wow. I can barely hand chewing &gt;&gt; Oh wow. I can barely hand chewing &gt;&gt; Oh wow. I can barely hand chewing chewing that like so lots of times I chewing that like so lots of times I chewing that like so lots of times I just try to you know choke it down but just try to you know choke it down but just try to you know choke it down but um yeah so I am eating a lot of carbs um yeah so I am eating a lot of carbs um yeah so I am eating a lot of carbs and um pastas stuff like that soup and um pastas stuff like that soup and um pastas stuff like that soup &gt;&gt; I get the occasional shake in but I got &gt;&gt; I get the occasional shake in but I got &gt;&gt; I get the occasional shake in but I got so sick of shakes from surgery that I so sick of shakes from surgery that I so sick of shakes from surgery that I &gt;&gt; kind of fell off of them but &gt;&gt; kind of fell off of them but &gt;&gt; kind of fell off of them but &gt;&gt; so &gt;&gt; so &gt;&gt; so &gt;&gt; it's probably not a bad it's probably &gt;&gt; it's probably not a bad it's probably &gt;&gt; it's probably not a bad it's probably not a bad thing to avoid common food not a bad thing to avoid common food not a bad thing to avoid common food intolerances.

I didn't want to put her in a position on the call. When I've had in a position on the call. When I've had in a position on the call. When I've had client, this is rare when you get client, this is rare when you get client, this is rare when you get somebody like this that's had that's somebody like this that's had that's somebody like this that's had that's like checking all the boxes. Um, and like checking all the boxes. Um, and like checking all the boxes. Um, and they just can't get to the bottom of they just can't get to the bottom of they just can't get to the bottom of what it is. I've had experience uh many, what it is. I've had experience uh many, what it is. I've had experience uh many, not many, a handful of times where uh not many, a handful of times where uh not many, a handful of times where uh some of this stuff is related to like some of this stuff is related to like some of this stuff is related to like childhood trauma. childhood trauma. childhood trauma. &gt;&gt; Sure. &gt;&gt; Sure. &gt;&gt; Sure. And uh if you have just powered through And uh if you have just powered through And uh if you have just powered through your life and never really done a lot of your life and never really done a lot of your life and never really done a lot of work on that, it tends to start to work on that, it tends to start to work on that, it tends to start to express itself in all these weird things express itself in all these weird things express itself in all these weird things and injuries and symptoms and stuff and and injuries and symptoms and stuff and and injuries and symptoms and stuff and autoimmune issues and things that you autoimmune issues and things that you autoimmune issues and things that you can't quite get to the bottom of. And so can't quite get to the bottom of. And so can't quite get to the bottom of. And so &gt;&gt; um I didn't want to put her on the spot &gt;&gt; um I didn't want to put her on the spot &gt;&gt; um I didn't want to put her on the spot on on this. on on this. on on this. &gt;&gt; You know what's tough about that, Adam? &gt;&gt; You know what's tough about that, Adam? &gt;&gt; You know what's tough about that, Adam? That's by the way, That's by the way, That's by the way, &gt;&gt; by the way, that's not woo. There's &gt;&gt; by the way, that's not woo. There's &gt;&gt; by the way, that's not woo. There's there's there's data to support this. there's there's data to support this. there's there's data to support this. You can activate your immune system by You can activate your immune system by You can activate your immune system by uh by hating on hating yourself. uh by hating on hating yourself. uh by hating on hating yourself.

Um the rates of uh of autoimmune issue. Um the rates of uh of autoimmune issue. Um the problem is when you communicate that problem is when you communicate that problem is when you communicate that it's the person feels like it's the person feels like it's the person feels like &gt;&gt; dismissed or like what are you talking &gt;&gt; dismissed or like what are you talking &gt;&gt; dismissed or like what are you talking about? That's why I didn't want to say about? That's why I didn't want to say about? That's why I didn't want to say it. And this is this is what makes what it. And this is this is what makes what it. And this is this is what makes what we do a little difficult because we have we do a little difficult because we have we do a little difficult because we have this uh you know we have 10 minutes at this uh you know we have 10 minutes at this uh you know we have 10 minutes at best. We get to know these people in best. We get to know these people in best. We get to know these people in that short amount of time. And this that short amount of time. And this that short amount of time. And this would be something that as her and I are would be something that as her and I are would be something that as her and I are training I would slowly pull on that training I would slowly pull on that training I would slowly pull on that thread to find out more about childhood thread to find out more about childhood thread to find out more about childhood personal life things are going. personal life things are going. personal life things are going. &gt;&gt; So I I'll tell a story. I'll tell a &gt;&gt; So I I'll tell a story. I'll tell a &gt;&gt; So I I'll tell a story. I'll tell a specific story. I had a guy that I specific story. I had a guy that I specific story. I had a guy that I trained who his wife came to me first. trained who his wife came to me first. trained who his wife came to me first. Then he started training with me and his Then he started training with me and his Then he started training with me and his body was so body was so body was so sensitive to pain that like my first sensitive to pain that like my first sensitive to pain that like my first couple sessions I was shocked. Like he'd couple sessions I was shocked. Like he'd couple sessions I was shocked. Like he'd do a row and I'd put my hands on him to do a row and I'd put my hands on him to do a row and I'd put my hands on him to kind of move his shoulders and he go ah kind of move his shoulders and he go ah kind of move his shoulders and he go ah he'd like flinch. And I remember he'd like flinch. And I remember he'd like flinch. And I remember thinking like this is really odd. thinking like this is really odd. thinking like this is really odd. &gt;&gt; Weird reaction. &gt;&gt; Weird reaction. &gt;&gt; Weird reaction. &gt;&gt; And after like two or three sessions it &gt;&gt; And after like two or three sessions it &gt;&gt; And after like two or three sessions it was like and and so we'd ask the was like and and so we'd ask the was like and and so we'd ask the questions no illness, no this, no that. questions no illness, no this, no that. questions no illness, no this, no that. But like everything hurt and we had to But like everything hurt and we had to But like everything hurt and we had to be very careful. Uh so all I did and I be very careful. Uh so all I did and I be very careful. Uh so all I did and I this is back in the day when I you know this is back in the day when I you know this is back in the day when I you know I didn't have a lot of awareness around I didn't have a lot of awareness around I didn't have a lot of awareness around this.

And what I would do, that's competitive. And what I would do, that's competitive. And what I would do, so here's your two options. Option one, so here's your two options. Option one, so here's your two options. Option one, the best is work with a coach. We have the best is work with a coach. We have the best is work with a coach. We have coaches here at Mind Pump that we coaches here at Mind Pump that we coaches here at Mind Pump that we handpick, so I trust them. Option two is handpick, so I trust them. Option two is handpick, so I trust them. Option two is to pursue powerlifting. to pursue powerlifting. to pursue powerlifting. Mhm. Mhm. Mhm. &gt;&gt; Powerlifting is going to be your best &gt;&gt; Powerlifting is going to be your best &gt;&gt; Powerlifting is going to be your best bet as far as a competition and target bet as far as a competition and target bet as far as a competition and target because it's going to if you're really because it's going to if you're really because it's going to if you're really seeking to get stronger and compete, seeking to get stronger and compete, seeking to get stronger and compete, it's going to move you away from all it's going to move you away from all it's going to move you away from all this other stuff that's a bit damaging. this other stuff that's a bit damaging. this other stuff that's a bit damaging. &gt;&gt; Mhm. &gt;&gt; Mhm. &gt;&gt; Mhm. &gt;&gt; Okay. &gt;&gt; Okay. &gt;&gt; Okay. &gt;&gt; Yeah. &gt;&gt; Yeah. &gt;&gt; Yeah. &gt;&gt; Go ahead. &gt;&gt; Go ahead. &gt;&gt; Go ahead. &gt;&gt; Sorry. No, no, go ahead. Go ahead. I was &gt;&gt; Sorry. No, no, go ahead. Go ahead. I was &gt;&gt; Sorry. No, no, go ahead. Go ahead. I was just because I like I've started to try just because I like I've started to try just because I like I've started to try to like strength train, you know, in the to like strength train, you know, in the to like strength train, you know, in the gym, but it is like I feel like I just gym, but it is like I feel like I just gym, but it is like I feel like I just get like lost or if I were to like get like lost or if I were to like get like lost or if I were to like imagine just doing strength training, imagine just doing strength training, imagine just doing strength training, which it's not even just like strength which it's not even just like strength which it's not even just like strength training obviously is very difficult, training obviously is very difficult, training obviously is very difficult, but I'm like, "Oh, if I don't run and but I'm like, "Oh, if I don't run and but I'm like, "Oh, if I don't run and have this huge sweat, then like have this huge sweat, then like have this huge sweat, then like &gt;&gt; I, you know, didn't get a good workout &gt;&gt; I, you know, didn't get a good workout &gt;&gt; I, you know, didn't get a good workout in and now I have to eat way less in and now I have to eat way less in and now I have to eat way less because I didn't burn as calories or because I didn't burn as calories or because I didn't burn as calories or whatever. whatever. whatever. &gt;&gt; It's so not true though, just so you &gt;&gt; It's so not true though, just so you &gt;&gt; It's so not true though, just so you know. And and that feeling that you have know. And and that feeling that you have know. And and that feeling that you have where you feel like you could eat 4,000 where you feel like you could eat 4,000 where you feel like you could eat 4,000 calories, that's your body's natural calories, that's your body's natural calories, that's your body's natural signal saying, "I need those calories." signal saying, "I need those calories." signal saying, "I need those calories." &gt;&gt; That's not a bad thing. That's like &gt;&gt; That's not a bad thing. That's like &gt;&gt; That's not a bad thing. That's like &gt;&gt; you go out and you do 30,000 steps in a &gt;&gt; you go out and you do 30,000 steps in a &gt;&gt; you go out and you do 30,000 steps in a day, which is crazy. A crazy amount of day, which is crazy. A crazy amount of day, which is crazy. A crazy amount of steps. That's a ridiculous amount. That steps. That's a ridiculous amount. That steps. That's a ridiculous amount. That type of that a person doing 30,000 steps type of that a person doing 30,000 steps type of that a person doing 30,000 steps a day and running a day and running a day and running &gt;&gt; should be eating 4,000 plus calories a &gt;&gt; should be eating 4,000 plus calories a &gt;&gt; should be eating 4,000 plus calories a day. day. day. &gt;&gt; Yeah. And if you're not anywhere near &gt;&gt; Yeah. And if you're not anywhere near &gt;&gt; Yeah. And if you're not anywhere near that, the reason why you feel like that, the reason why you feel like that, the reason why you feel like you're starving is because your body is. you're starving is because your body is. you're starving is because your body is. And which is also why the period is shut And which is also why the period is shut And which is also why the period is shut down. down. down. &gt;&gt; Is that our our body fat percentage is &gt;&gt; Is that our our body fat percentage is &gt;&gt; Is that our our body fat percentage is too low. We're pushing way too hard. too low. We're pushing way too hard. too low. We're pushing way too hard. We're way on the other extreme. We have We're way on the other extreme. We have We're way on the other extreme. We have to come. And this is why Sal is saying to come. And this is why Sal is saying to come. And this is why Sal is saying the coach is so important is because the coach is so important is because the coach is so important is because this isn't like one or two little just this isn't like one or two little just this isn't like one or two little just tweaks. This is a process tweaks. This is a process tweaks. This is a process &gt;&gt; because we have to get on the whole &gt;&gt; because we have to get on the whole &gt;&gt; because we have to get on the whole other side. In fact, what it looks like other side. In fact, what it looks like other side. In fact, what it looks like is increasing calories, cutting those is increasing calories, cutting those is increasing calories, cutting those steps down to under 10,000 steps and steps down to under 10,000 steps and steps down to under 10,000 steps and just lifting weights. Like that is so just lifting weights. Like that is so just lifting weights. Like that is so the opposite of where you're at. the opposite of where you're at. the opposite of where you're at. &gt;&gt; And the coach is going to guide you &gt;&gt; And the coach is going to guide you &gt;&gt; And the coach is going to guide you through that. through that. through that. &gt;&gt; And it's real easy for us to sit on our, &gt;&gt; And it's real easy for us to sit on our, &gt;&gt; And it's real easy for us to sit on our, you know, podcast chairs and tell you you know, podcast chairs and tell you you know, podcast chairs and tell you that. It's another thing to implement that. It's another thing to implement that. It's another thing to implement that and do that and and and the voices that and do that and and and the voices that and do that and and and the voices in your head that are telling you all in your head that are telling you all in your head that are telling you all these things and then and then heaven these things and then and then heaven these things and then and then heaven forbid you see the scale go up a few forbid you see the scale go up a few forbid you see the scale go up a few pounds and then freak out and think pounds and then freak out and think pounds and then freak out and think you're going the wrong way when actually you're going the wrong way when actually you're going the wrong way when actually you're building muscle and going the you're building muscle and going the you're building muscle and going the right way. That's where the coach comes right way. That's where the coach comes right way. That's where the coach comes in is the coach is the one who kind of in is the coach is the one who kind of in is the coach is the one who kind of talks you off that ledge every day and talks you off that ledge every day and talks you off that ledge every day and goes, "Nicole, you're doing great. This goes, "Nicole, you're doing great. This goes, "Nicole, you're doing great. This is perfect. This is right where I want is perfect. This is right where I want is perfect. This is right where I want you." Like, "Oh, we're doing like that's you." Like, "Oh, we're doing like that's you." Like, "Oh, we're doing like that's the real value. It's less of the X's and the real value. It's less of the X's and the real value. It's less of the X's and O's and it's just that where you're at O's and it's just that where you're at O's and it's just that where you're at and where we need to go is is is is a and where we need to go is is is is a and where we need to go is is is is a pretty far pretty far trek and getting pretty far pretty far trek and getting pretty far pretty far trek and getting there is not hard from a physical there is not hard from a physical there is not hard from a physical standpoint. It's hard from a standpoint. It's hard from a standpoint. It's hard from a psychological standpoint. psychological standpoint. psychological standpoint. &gt;&gt; Let me just let me just uh communicate &gt;&gt; Let me just let me just uh communicate &gt;&gt; Let me just let me just uh communicate something to you that that you may be something to you that that you may be something to you that that you may be aware of but you might not be aware of. aware of but you might not be aware of. aware of but you might not be aware of. This control that you're putting around This control that you're putting around This control that you're putting around all these things, all these things, all these things, &gt;&gt; it's actually the reverse. It is &gt;&gt; it's actually the reverse. It is &gt;&gt; it's actually the reverse. It is controlling you. So you are actually out controlling you. So you are actually out controlling you. So you are actually out of control. You are being tyrannized by of control. You are being tyrannized by of control. You are being tyrannized by exercise, diet, stress, body image, all exercise, diet, stress, body image, all exercise, diet, stress, body image, all these things are controlling you. You're these things are controlling you. You're these things are controlling you. You're not controlling. As much as you're not controlling. As much as you're not controlling. As much as you're trying to control it, it's actually trying to control it, it's actually trying to control it, it's actually controlling you, which probably gives controlling you, which probably gives controlling you, which probably gives you the sense that you need to control you the sense that you need to control you the sense that you need to control it even more. And so this is kind of it even more. And so this is kind of it even more. And so this is kind of like spiral. like spiral. like spiral. &gt;&gt; It's a spiral down. Yeah. &gt;&gt; It's a spiral down. Yeah. &gt;&gt; It's a spiral down. Yeah. &gt;&gt; Yeah. So the answer is to is to do the &gt;&gt; Yeah. So the answer is to is to do the &gt;&gt; Yeah. So the answer is to is to do the scary thing which is to give the control scary thing which is to give the control scary thing which is to give the control up completely. up completely. up completely. But the easiest way to do that is to But the easiest way to do that is to But the easiest way to do that is to give it to someone else. give it to someone else. give it to someone else. &gt;&gt; Mhm. &gt;&gt; Mhm. &gt;&gt; Mhm. &gt;&gt; Uh now and I'm going to I'm going to &gt;&gt; Uh now and I'm going to I'm going to &gt;&gt; Uh now and I'm going to I'm going to paint a couple pictures for you. Uh one paint a couple pictures for you. Uh one paint a couple pictures for you. Uh one here's one one path is if you keep going here's one one path is if you keep going here's one one path is if you keep going down you're 25 you're young but you're down you're 25 you're young but you're down you're 25 you're young but you're already your your period is irregular. already your your period is irregular. already your your period is irregular. You're feeling like oh my god this You're feeling like oh my god this You're feeling like oh my god this doesn't feel good. doesn't feel good. doesn't feel good. &gt;&gt; What did the bone density say on your &gt;&gt; What did the bone density say on your &gt;&gt; What did the bone density say on your DEXA scan? Did you see it? Yeah. Was DEXA scan? Did you see it? Yeah. Was DEXA scan? Did you see it? Yeah. Was your bone density okay? your bone density okay? your bone density okay? &gt;&gt; My bone density was actually okay. My &gt;&gt; My bone density was actually okay. My &gt;&gt; My bone density was actually okay. My dad also got a Dexon. They told him he's dad also got a Dexon. They told him he's dad also got a Dexon. They told him he's built like a tank. So, I think I just built like a tank. So, I think I just built like a tank. So, I think I just have good genetics when it comes to have good genetics when it comes to have good genetics when it comes to bones. bones. bones. &gt;&gt; Good. Good. So, so what'll happen if you &gt;&gt; Good. Good. So, so what'll happen if you &gt;&gt; Good. Good. So, so what'll happen if you keep moving down this path is it's going keep moving down this path is it's going keep moving down this path is it's going to get uh more stressful, more to get uh more stressful, more to get uh more stressful, more difficult, more challenging, more difficult, more challenging, more difficult, more challenging, more negative symptoms. Uh and it's going to negative symptoms. Uh and it's going to negative symptoms. Uh and it's going to feel terrible. So, right now, youth is feel terrible. So, right now, youth is feel terrible. So, right now, youth is helping protect you a little bit. Uh but helping protect you a little bit. Uh but helping protect you a little bit. Uh but if you keep going down this path, it'll if you keep going down this path, it'll if you keep going down this path, it'll be really, really nasty. Now, the the be really, really nasty. Now, the the be really, really nasty. Now, the the other path that we could do right now is other path that we could do right now is other path that we could do right now is you relinquish control to someone you you relinquish control to someone you you relinquish control to someone you trust. How long have you been listening trust. How long have you been listening trust. How long have you been listening to our show, by the way? to our show, by the way? to our show, by the way? &gt;&gt; It's been a couple years now. &gt;&gt; It's been a couple years now. &gt;&gt; It's been a couple years now. &gt;&gt; Okay. So, you you like us, you trust us &gt;&gt; Okay. So, you you like us, you trust us &gt;&gt; Okay. So, you you like us, you trust us a little bit. You think we know what a little bit.

So, uh, I mean, a coach would really be So, uh, I mean, a coach would really be So, uh, I mean, a coach would really be helpful, but you you've got to be in a helpful, but you you've got to be in a helpful, but you you've got to be in a place to where you're okay with that, place to where you're okay with that, place to where you're okay with that, where you where you're going to let go where you where you're going to let go where you where you're going to let go and be like, "Okay, this is really a and be like, "Okay, this is really a and be like, "Okay, this is really a problem I want to address." If you're problem I want to address." If you're problem I want to address." If you're not there yet, then it wouldn't help not there yet, then it wouldn't help not there yet, then it wouldn't help you. you. you. &gt;&gt; Yeah, I think I'm in that that &gt;&gt; Yeah, I think I'm in that that &gt;&gt; Yeah, I think I'm in that that contemplation stage of change still, contemplation stage of change still, contemplation stage of change still, &gt;&gt; but I'm um I feel like I'm getting &gt;&gt; but I'm um I feel like I'm getting &gt;&gt; but I'm um I feel like I'm getting closer to closer to closer to &gt;&gt; to having a mindset of of readiness. &gt;&gt; to having a mindset of of readiness. &gt;&gt; to having a mindset of of readiness. &gt;&gt; You know what you could do? Try this. &gt;&gt; You know what you could do? Try this. &gt;&gt; You know what you could do? Try this. This is what I'm doing right now. So, This is what I'm doing right now. So, This is what I'm doing right now. So, because I've been on and off with this because I've been on and off with this because I've been on and off with this forever. Sometimes better, sometimes forever. Sometimes better, sometimes forever. Sometimes better, sometimes worse. I So, I started doing where every worse. I So, I started doing where every worse. I So, I started doing where every other week, uh, I don't do any So, this other week, uh, I don't do any So, this other week, uh, I don't do any So, this is for me. This wouldn't look like it is for me. This wouldn't look like it is for me. This wouldn't look like it for you, but for me, every other week I for you, but for me, every other week I for you, but for me, every other week I do zero to no almost do zero to no almost do zero to no almost no strength training and I just do no strength training and I just do no strength training and I just do cardio because that's the thing for me cardio because that's the thing for me cardio because that's the thing for me is you should say, he doesn't do cardio. is you should say, he doesn't do cardio. is you should say, he doesn't do cardio. &gt;&gt; I just do walking. &gt;&gt; I just do walking. &gt;&gt; I just do walking. &gt;&gt; Okay. So, maybe it looks like this for &gt;&gt; Okay. So, maybe it looks like this for &gt;&gt; Okay. So, maybe it looks like this for you. instead of what you do every single you. instead of what you do every single you. instead of what you do every single day, maybe it's like, okay, on Wednesday day, maybe it's like, okay, on Wednesday day, maybe it's like, okay, on Wednesday and Friday, I'm cutting it way down and and Friday, I'm cutting it way down and and Friday, I'm cutting it way down and then wait and then see what happens. And then wait and then see what happens. And then wait and then see what happens. And then slowly step ladder yourself towards then slowly step ladder yourself towards then slowly step ladder yourself towards uh doing less. Maybe it's one day. Maybe uh doing less. Maybe it's one day. Maybe uh doing less. Maybe it's one day. Maybe it could be like, "All right, Fridays it could be like, "All right, Fridays it could be like, "All right, Fridays instead of doing an hour and a half of instead of doing an hour and a half of instead of doing an hour and a half of strength training and all this cardio, strength training and all this cardio, strength training and all this cardio, maybe it's like I'm gonna do nothing or maybe it's like I'm gonna do nothing or maybe it's like I'm gonna do nothing or I'm gonna just go for a hike or I'm gonna just go for a hike or I'm gonna just go for a hike or something like that and keep it light something like that and keep it light something like that and keep it light because you could also turn that into, because you could also turn that into, because you could also turn that into, you know, crazy." And just step ladder you know, crazy." And just step ladder you know, crazy." And just step ladder yourself. For me, it's every other week yourself. For me, it's every other week yourself. For me, it's every other week because the that's that seems to be what because the that's that seems to be what because the that's that seems to be what I I can do right now. I I can do right now. I I can do right now. H H H &gt;&gt; how is your um thought process and your &gt;&gt; how is your um thought process and your &gt;&gt; how is your um thought process and your mental health as you go through this? mental health as you go through this? mental health as you go through this? &gt;&gt; He sucks at it, so I don't know why he's &gt;&gt; He sucks at it, so I don't know why he's &gt;&gt; He sucks at it, so I don't know why he's talking. You need you need a coach. You talking. You need you need a coach. You talking. You need you need a coach. You need a coach. That's that's what I need a coach. That's that's what I need a coach. That's that's what I &gt;&gt; I just started it. And so this is week &gt;&gt; I just started it. And so this is week &gt;&gt; I just started it. And so this is week uh two. So I'm just I just got into it. uh two. So I'm just I just got into it. uh two. So I'm just I just got into it. &gt;&gt; But what helped me was on the week I'm &gt;&gt; But what helped me was on the week I'm &gt;&gt; But what helped me was on the week I'm not strength training. I'm uh listening not strength training. I'm uh listening not strength training. I'm uh listening to books that I'm really interested in. to books that I'm really interested in. to books that I'm really interested in. So I look forward to that. So I walk on So I look forward to that. So I walk on So I look forward to that. So I walk on the treadmill and I listen to a book the treadmill and I listen to a book the treadmill and I listen to a book because just doing nothing is too big of because just doing nothing is too big of because just doing nothing is too big of a bite for me. So I'm like, okay, so a bite for me. So I'm like, okay, so a bite for me. So I'm like, okay, so every other week I'm just So maybe every other week I'm just So maybe every other week I'm just So maybe there's something else that you're there's something else that you're there's something else that you're really interested in that you really really interested in that you really really interested in that you really like to do, whether it's a book or like to do, whether it's a book or like to do, whether it's a book or &gt;&gt; you go I you know, it might it's just &gt;&gt; you go I you know, it might it's just &gt;&gt; you go I you know, it might it's just something that's not exercise. Uh and something that's not exercise. Uh and something that's not exercise. Uh and then because not doing something is then because not doing something is then because not doing something is hard, but doing something else in hard, but doing something else in hard, but doing something else in replace of it is easier. replace of it is easier. replace of it is easier. &gt;&gt; So maybe it's maybe it's yin yoga.

The yoga would be great for someone. The hardest the hardest part, Sarah, if I hardest the hardest part, Sarah, if I hardest the hardest part, Sarah, if I was coaching you, the hardest part is was coaching you, the hardest part is was coaching you, the hardest part is I'm I'm going to tell you that I I'm I'm going to tell you that I I'm I'm going to tell you that I absolutely can keep the body or even absolutely can keep the body or even absolutely can keep the body or even better if you wanted, but I also better if you wanted, but I also better if you wanted, but I also simultaneously need you to let go of simultaneously need you to let go of simultaneously need you to let go of that at the same time. That's the hard that at the same time. That's the hard that at the same time. That's the hard part. So, it's like I can I can I could part. So, it's like I can I can I could part. So, it's like I can I can I could guarantee you as as the coach, I could guarantee you as as the coach, I could guarantee you as as the coach, I could say, "Hey, don't worry. I'll I'll keep say, "Hey, don't worry. I'll I'll keep say, "Hey, don't worry.

And so that part, that letting go this." And so that part, that letting go this." And so that part, that letting go process, that's the hard part. And process, that's the hard part. And process, that's the hard part. And that's the part that you have to to to that's the part that you have to to to that's the part that you have to to to separate from. That's what this guy is separate from. That's what this guy is separate from. That's what this guy is still struggling with is completely still struggling with is completely still struggling with is completely letting go of that letting go of that letting go of that &gt;&gt; and going a total different direction. &gt;&gt; and going a total different direction. &gt;&gt; and going a total different direction. He's easing himself in with the walking He's easing himself in with the walking He's easing himself in with the walking stuff. But so what my journey looked stuff.
