One of the most frustrating things that One of the most frustrating things that people can suffer through when trying to people can suffer through when trying to people can suffer through when trying to lose weight is that last stubborn 10 lose weight is that last stubborn 10 lose weight is that last stubborn 10 pounds. You're losing weight, doing pounds. You're losing weight, doing pounds. You're losing weight, doing great, then you get about 10 pounds away great, then you get about 10 pounds away great, then you get about 10 pounds away from your goal. It won't budge no matter from your goal. It won't budge no matter from your goal. It won't budge no matter what you do. So, what do you do? We have what you do. So, what do you do? We have what you do. So, what do you do? We have the answer. Check it out. What do you the answer. Check it out. What do you the answer. Check it out. What do you do? All right, let's talk about this. do? All right, let's talk about this. do? All right, let's talk about this. Why does this so stubborn? Why is it Why does this so stubborn? Why is it Why does this so stubborn? Why is it that this? Because this is common. We that this? Because this is common. We that this? Because this is common. We often you often hear about this. that often you often hear about this. that often you often hear about this. that last 10 15 pounds just won't come off my last 10 15 pounds just won't come off my last 10 15 pounds just won't come off my body. body. body. >> My body's job. >> My body's job. >> My body's job. >> I was going to say you got to argue >> I was going to say you got to argue >> I was going to say you got to argue there's a there's evolutionary reason there's a there's evolutionary reason there's a there's evolutionary reason for this, right? I mean, your body has for this, right? I mean, your body has for this, right? I mean, your body has got to be the leaner you get, got to be the leaner you get, got to be the leaner you get, >> um, >> um, >> um, >> the harder it gets to get leaner. >> the harder it gets to get leaner. >> the harder it gets to get leaner. >> Yeah. The harder it gets to get leaner. >> Yeah. The harder it gets to get leaner. >> Yeah. The harder it gets to get leaner. It's not. You you would think, I guess It's not. You you would think, I guess It's not. You you would think, I guess common common thought would be, as I get common common thought would be, as I get common common thought would be, as I get in my rhythm and I'm consistent with my in my rhythm and I'm consistent with my in my rhythm and I'm consistent with my training and my diet, it should get training and my diet, it should get training and my diet, it should get easier and easier, but it's actually the easier and easier, but it's actually the easier and easier, but it's actually the opposite. opposite. opposite. >> It gets harder and harder the leaner you >> It gets harder and harder the leaner you >> It gets harder and harder the leaner you get. I mean, I think the initial get. I mean, I think the initial get. I mean, I think the initial weight loss or body fat drop for weight loss or body fat drop for weight loss or body fat drop for somebody who's say north of 30% body fat somebody who's say north of 30% body fat somebody who's say north of 30% body fat is relatively easy, but as you get is relatively easy, but as you get is relatively easy, but as you get closer and closer to that uh either for closer and closer to that uh either for closer and closer to that uh either for men, singledigit body fat, for women, men, singledigit body fat, for women, men, singledigit body fat, for women, low 20s, uh it becomes really difficult low 20s, uh it becomes really difficult low 20s, uh it becomes really difficult every percent to get lower. every percent to get lower. every percent to get lower. >> Yeah. But you know what? You also hear >> Yeah. But you know what? You also hear >> Yeah. But you know what? You also hear this from people who aren't even trying this from people who aren't even trying this from people who aren't even trying to get that low. Um, you'll just hear to get that low. Um, you'll just hear to get that low. Um, you'll just hear people who are like women who are trying people who are like women who are trying people who are like women who are trying to get like 26% body fat or guys who are to get like 26% body fat or guys who are to get like 26% body fat or guys who are trying to get to 16 or 17% and then trying to get to 16 or 17% and then trying to get to 16 or 17% and then they're 10 lbs away from their goal uh they're 10 lbs away from their goal uh they're 10 lbs away from their goal uh and then suddenly everything stops. And and then suddenly everything stops. And and then suddenly everything stops. And um what what's what's happening often um what what's what's happening often um what what's what's happening often times cuz uh now if this if you're just times cuz uh now if this if you're just times cuz uh now if this if you're just doing things wrong and you're eating doing things wrong and you're eating doing things wrong and you're eating more suddenly and stuff like that, more suddenly and stuff like that, more suddenly and stuff like that, that's different. But let's say you're that's different. But let's say you're that's different. But let's say you're doing everything consistently and then doing everything consistently and then doing everything consistently and then suddenly you get stuck. you've hit a suddenly you get stuck. you've hit a suddenly you get stuck. you've hit a metabolic wall metabolic wall metabolic wall >> is what happened. >> is what happened. >> is what happened. >> Um, and so to to put it in a simple >> Um, and so to to put it in a simple >> Um, and so to to put it in a simple terms, and of course it's more terms, and of course it's more terms, and of course it's more complicated than this, but simp simply complicated than this, but simp simply complicated than this, but simp simply speaking, speaking, speaking, >> when you're losing body fat, you have to >> when you're losing body fat, you have to >> when you're losing body fat, you have to be in what's known as a calorie uh be in what's known as a calorie uh be in what's known as a calorie uh deficit. Uh, you have to be burning more deficit. Uh, you have to be burning more deficit. Uh, you have to be burning more than you're taking in, okay? Or taking than you're taking in, okay? Or taking than you're taking in, okay? Or taking in less than you're than you're in less than you're than you're in less than you're than you're consuming. And your body doesn't like to consuming. And your body doesn't like to consuming. And your body doesn't like to be in this place. Uh, your body doesn't be in this place. Uh, your body doesn't be in this place. Uh, your body doesn't like to burn more calories than you're like to burn more calories than you're like to burn more calories than you're taking in. it has to borrow to make up taking in. it has to borrow to make up taking in. it has to borrow to make up the difference. And it borrows energy the difference. And it borrows energy the difference. And it borrows energy from uh hopefully body fat. Just like if from uh hopefully body fat. Just like if from uh hopefully body fat. Just like if you were spending more money than you you were spending more money than you you were spending more money than you were making, at some point you look at were making, at some point you look at were making, at some point you look at your bank account and you go, "Yeah, we your bank account and you go, "Yeah, we your bank account and you go, "Yeah, we got to figure out how to spend less." got to figure out how to spend less." got to figure out how to spend less." And so your metabolism adapts. You And so your metabolism adapts. You And so your metabolism adapts. You actually your body starts to burn less actually your body starts to burn less actually your body starts to burn less calories. And and one of the ways it calories. And and one of the ways it calories. And and one of the ways it does this is it it'll pair muscle down. does this is it it'll pair muscle down. does this is it it'll pair muscle down. And in my experience, this is where this And in my experience, this is where this And in my experience, this is where this happens is where a person's losing happens is where a person's losing happens is where a person's losing weight, and they're eating less, eating weight, and they're eating less, eating weight, and they're eating less, eating less, moving more, moving more, and then less, moving more, moving more, and then less, moving more, moving more, and then they get in this place where they're they get in this place where they're they get in this place where they're like, I got to eat even less. I don't like, I got to eat even less. I don't like, I got to eat even less. I don't feel like I'm eating that much at all. feel like I'm eating that much at all. feel like I'm eating that much at all. I'm really hungry. I'm already working I'm really hungry. I'm already working I'm really hungry. I'm already working out a lot. Uh I don't think it's out a lot. Uh I don't think it's out a lot. Uh I don't think it's realistic knowing what my schedule is realistic knowing what my schedule is realistic knowing what my schedule is like and my uh consistency behaviors are like and my uh consistency behaviors are like and my uh consistency behaviors are like to add more exercise. Uh is that like to add more exercise. Uh is that like to add more exercise. Uh is that what I got to do? I gotta just I gotta what I got to do? I gotta just I gotta what I got to do? I gotta just I gotta cut even more my calories and exercise cut even more my calories and exercise cut even more my calories and exercise even more. even more. even more. >> Yeah. >> Yeah. >> Yeah. >> And um and a lot of coaches and a lot of >> And um and a lot of coaches and a lot of >> And um and a lot of coaches and a lot of trainers would say, "Yeah, that's what trainers would say, "Yeah, that's what trainers would say, "Yeah, that's what you got to do because that's the easy you got to do because that's the easy you got to do because that's the easy answer." But it's not actually the best answer." But it's not actually the best answer." But it's not actually the best answer. When you get stuck in this place answer. When you get stuck in this place answer. When you get stuck in this place where you hit that metabolic wall, what where you hit that metabolic wall, what where you hit that metabolic wall, what you often need to do to get that last 10 you often need to do to get that last 10 you often need to do to get that last 10 pounds off your body is to change gears pounds off your body is to change gears pounds off your body is to change gears and try to boost uh metabolism or try to and try to boost uh metabolism or try to and try to boost uh metabolism or try to make your metabolism make your metabolism make your metabolism learn or want to uh burn more calories. learn or want to uh burn more calories. learn or want to uh burn more calories. And so often times when I'm working with And so often times when I'm working with And so often times when I'm working with someone and they're stuck on those last someone and they're stuck on those last someone and they're stuck on those last 10 pounds, we do a reverse diet and 10 pounds, we do a reverse diet and 10 pounds, we do a reverse diet and start focusing on building muscle so start focusing on building muscle so start focusing on building muscle so that we can get the 10 pounds off, that we can get the 10 pounds off, that we can get the 10 pounds off, >> start giving them resources. I mean, >> start giving them resources. I mean, >> start giving them resources. I mean, it's literally like you're signaling it's literally like you're signaling it's literally like you're signaling your body your demand for calories is your body your demand for calories is your body your demand for calories is very high because of that amount of very high because of that amount of very high because of that amount of activity you're producing, but the activity you're producing, but the activity you're producing, but the resources are very low. And so your resources are very low. And so your resources are very low. And so your body's like, well, now we need to adjust body's like, well, now we need to adjust body's like, well, now we need to adjust for this and maintain whatever resources for this and maintain whatever resources for this and maintain whatever resources we can hold on to. Totally. we can hold on to. Totally. we can hold on to. Totally. >> So, it's it's just like it we're trying >> So, it's it's just like it we're trying >> So, it's it's just like it we're trying to go against our our natural mechanisms to go against our our natural mechanisms to go against our our natural mechanisms there. And you just inevitably hit a there. And you just inevitably hit a there. And you just inevitably hit a wall. So, reversing out is is pretty wall. So, reversing out is is pretty wall. So, reversing out is is pretty much the answer. I'd say this is pretty much the answer. I'd say this is pretty much the answer. I'd say this is pretty obvious when obvious when obvious when you you know the calorie intake for both you you know the calorie intake for both you you know the calorie intake for both whether it be for the female or male. whether it be for the female or male. whether it be for the female or male. Like so typically if if someone's hit Like so typically if if someone's hit Like so typically if if someone's hit this wall um and they're a female this wall um and they're a female this wall um and they're a female uh they're they're they're under 2,000 uh they're they're they're under 2,000 uh they're they're they're under 2,000 calories they're eating and so it's like calories they're eating and so it's like calories they're eating and so it's like very obvious. It's like we very obvious. It's like we very obvious. It's like we >> usually around 15. >> usually around 15. >> usually around 15. >> Yeah. Yeah. Exactly. But any but >> Yeah. Yeah. Exactly. But any but >> Yeah. Yeah. Exactly. But any but anything under 2,000 if they hit this anything under 2,000 if they hit this anything under 2,000 if they hit this wall I'm going back the other way for wall I'm going back the other way for wall I'm going back the other way for sure. um you're already at that low like sure. um you're already at that low like sure. um you're already at that low like for me under 2,000 for a female and for me under 2,000 for a female and for me under 2,000 for a female and anything really under 2500 for a male uh anything really under 2500 for a male uh anything really under 2500 for a male uh would be the same thing. Same thing guy would be the same thing. Same thing guy would be the same thing. Same thing guy a guy who's eating you know 2400 a guy who's eating you know 2400 a guy who's eating you know 2400 something calories and that he's hit something calories and that he's hit something calories and that he's hit that wall. So I think that has a lot to that wall. So I think that has a lot to that wall. So I think that has a lot to do with it cuz if someone came to me and do with it cuz if someone came to me and do with it cuz if someone came to me and they're like oh I hit this wall I can't they're like oh I hit this wall I can't they're like oh I hit this wall I can't lose the last 10 lbs and she's eating lose the last 10 lbs and she's eating lose the last 10 lbs and she's eating 2600 calories. Well, we still have we 2600 calories. Well, we still have we 2600 calories. Well, we still have we still have room. That's right. still have room. That's right. still have room. That's right. >> Yeah. We still have room to cut and >> Yeah. We still have room to cut and >> Yeah. We still have room to cut and still be in a a healthy place. And a guy still be in a a healthy place. And a guy still be in a a healthy place. And a guy comes to me and he says, "Oh, I've hit comes to me and he says, "Oh, I've hit comes to me and he says, "Oh, I've hit the wall. I I can't lose the last 10 the wall. I I can't lose the last 10 the wall. I I can't lose the last 10 pounds. Well, how would your calories pounds. Well, how would your calories pounds. Well, how would your calories at? Oh, I'm 3,400 calories. Oh, okay. at? Oh, I'm 3,400 calories. Oh, okay. at? Oh, I'm 3,400 calories. Oh, okay. Well, easy. Yeah, easy. We have room. Well, easy. Yeah, easy. We have room. Well, easy. Yeah, easy. We have room. But typically, this happens when But typically, this happens when But typically, this happens when somebody has already played the cutting somebody has already played the cutting somebody has already played the cutting cutting and moving more game and they cutting and moving more game and they cutting and moving more game and they have now found themselves exercising, have now found themselves exercising, have now found themselves exercising, you know, four to six times a week, uh, you know, four to six times a week, uh, you know, four to six times a week, uh, plus maybe even cardio or lots of steps plus maybe even cardio or lots of steps plus maybe even cardio or lots of steps and activity. And their calories are now and activity. And their calories are now and activity. And their calories are now in the low 200s or under 2,000 calories. in the low 200s or under 2,000 calories. in the low 200s or under 2,000 calories. And it's like where do we go from here? And it's like where do we go from here? And it's like where do we go from here? And it's you're in which is why I think And it's you're in which is why I think And it's you're in which is why I think so many people put all the weight back so many people put all the weight back so many people put all the weight back on because it's just not sustainable. on because it's just not sustainable. on because it's just not sustainable. It's not a sustainable place to be for It's not a sustainable place to be for It's not a sustainable place to be for probably 95% of the population unless probably 95% of the population unless probably 95% of the population unless you are obsessed with exercise. It's you are obsessed with exercise. It's you are obsessed with exercise. It's just not a a good place to be. And so just not a a good place to be. And so just not a a good place to be. And so yeah, it's almost always a reverse diet. yeah, it's almost always a reverse diet. yeah, it's almost always a reverse diet. >> Yeah. And you and um this is so common >> Yeah. And you and um this is so common >> Yeah. And you and um this is so common that you even see this uh in people who that you even see this uh in people who that you even see this uh in people who use a GLP uh medication. use a GLP uh medication. use a GLP uh medication. >> Oh yeah. Yeah. which are powerful. These >> Oh yeah. Yeah. which are powerful. These >> Oh yeah. Yeah. which are powerful. These are powerful medications that that just are powerful medications that that just are powerful medications that that just like really crush your like really crush your like really crush your >> appetite because >> appetite because >> appetite because >> we we saw we saw people like this. We >> we we saw we saw people like this. We >> we we saw we saw people like this. We worked worked worked >> personally we worked with a group of 50 >> personally we worked with a group of 50 >> personally we worked with a group of 50 50 plus people and there were people on 50 plus people and there were people on 50 plus people and there were people on there who had lost significant weight on there who had lost significant weight on there who had lost significant weight on a GLP. So they were uh they were they a GLP. So they were uh they were they a GLP. So they were uh they were they they had to lose I think it was close to they had to lose I think it was close to they had to lose I think it was close to north of 80 pounds initially. They'd north of 80 pounds initially. They'd north of 80 pounds initially. They'd gotten something like 60 lbs off. There gotten something like 60 lbs off. There gotten something like 60 lbs off. There was another 30 lbs left. They were at was another 30 lbs left. They were at was another 30 lbs left. They were at this plateau. There was one person in this plateau. There was one person in this plateau. There was one person in particular I can remember she was at particular I can remember she was at particular I can remember she was at this plateau for like 6 months and we this plateau for like 6 months and we this plateau for like 6 months and we were asking her okay well let's let's were asking her okay well let's let's were asking her okay well let's let's look at what you're eating and she was look at what you're eating and she was look at what you're eating and she was eating 1,200 calories or less a day some eating 1,200 calories or less a day some eating 1,200 calories or less a day some days it was 1,000 days it was 1,000 days it was 1,000 >> and she's got 30 more pounds not to get >> and she's got 30 more pounds not to get >> and she's got 30 more pounds not to get shredded but just to get into like a shredded but just to get into like a shredded but just to get into like a normal healthy place uh she had 30 more normal healthy place uh she had 30 more normal healthy place uh she had 30 more pounds to go and she was eating like I pounds to go and she was eating like I pounds to go and she was eating like I said 1,000 to 1200 calories sometimes said 1,000 to 1200 calories sometimes said 1,000 to 1200 calories sometimes even less she said and um that's a tough even less she said and um that's a tough even less she said and um that's a tough but your your metabolic rate has just but your your metabolic rate has just but your your metabolic rate has just some remarkable ability to adapt. And some remarkable ability to adapt. And some remarkable ability to adapt. And it's crazy. We got good studies on this it's crazy. We got good studies on this it's crazy. We got good studies on this where there's a few ways your body will where there's a few ways your body will where there's a few ways your body will do this. Some of them are more do this. Some of them are more do this. Some of them are more mysterious than others, but the the mysterious than others, but the the mysterious than others, but the the obvious ones that we can measure, and obvious ones that we can measure, and obvious ones that we can measure, and they've done this really well, where they've done this really well, where they've done this really well, where they'll they'll put trackers on people they'll they'll put trackers on people they'll they'll put trackers on people and measure daily activity. And as a and measure daily activity. And as a and measure daily activity. And as a person ramps up their exercise and cuts person ramps up their exercise and cuts person ramps up their exercise and cuts their calories, their body will start to their calories, their body will start to their calories, their body will start to make up for it with reduced activity make up for it with reduced activity make up for it with reduced activity throughout the day. So without them throughout the day. So without them throughout the day. So without them realizing they're sitting more, they're realizing they're sitting more, they're realizing they're sitting more, they're walking slower, uh they're doing less walking slower, uh they're doing less walking slower, uh they're doing less movement throughout the day, uh because movement throughout the day, uh because movement throughout the day, uh because they're trying their body's trying to they're trying their body's trying to they're trying their body's trying to make up for it. make up for it. make up for it. >> Another obvious one uh is >> Another obvious one uh is >> Another obvious one uh is >> lethargic purposely. Yeah, >> lethargic purposely. Yeah, >> lethargic purposely. Yeah, >> totally. Another one another obvious one >> totally. Another one another obvious one >> totally. Another one another obvious one is muscle loss. Uh so um when you look is muscle loss. Uh so um when you look is muscle loss. Uh so um when you look at a just a calorie deficit with at a just a calorie deficit with at a just a calorie deficit with activity minus strength training so no activity minus strength training so no activity minus strength training so no strength training so no protective strength training so no protective strength training so no protective exercise uh when it comes to muscle um exercise uh when it comes to muscle um exercise uh when it comes to muscle um you know you look at 30% to 45% of the you know you look at 30% to 45% of the you know you look at 30% to 45% of the weight coming from muscle and it's not weight coming from muscle and it's not weight coming from muscle and it's not the body's not that the person's body is the body's not that the person's body is the body's not that the person's body is burning muscle away because it needs to burning muscle away because it needs to burning muscle away because it needs to burn muscle for energy but rather it's burn muscle for energy but rather it's burn muscle for energy but rather it's trying to reduce its uh demands by trying to reduce its uh demands by trying to reduce its uh demands by taking this tissue that's kind of taking this tissue that's kind of taking this tissue that's kind of expensive uh from a caloric standpoint expensive uh from a caloric standpoint expensive uh from a caloric standpoint um and bringing it down. And then um and bringing it down. And then um and bringing it down. And then there's mysterious uh ways that the body there's mysterious uh ways that the body there's mysterious uh ways that the body uh slows its metabolism down. Um you uh slows its metabolism down. Um you uh slows its metabolism down. Um you know, you could have the same lean body know, you could have the same lean body know, you could have the same lean body mass and have a metabolism that decides mass and have a metabolism that decides mass and have a metabolism that decides to burn more or less calories. And this to burn more or less calories. And this to burn more or less calories. And this has to do probably with mitochondrial has to do probably with mitochondrial has to do probably with mitochondrial function um and other mechanisms. function um and other mechanisms. function um and other mechanisms. Hormone changes can also affect this as Hormone changes can also affect this as Hormone changes can also affect this as well. So the body just starts to well. So the body just starts to well. So the body just starts to >> stress stress to overall health. I mean >> stress stress to overall health. I mean >> stress stress to overall health. I mean look at the challenge that uh Karen and look at the challenge that uh Karen and look at the challenge that uh Karen and I are having currently right now like I are having currently right now like I are having currently right now like with just her body not with just her body not with just her body not >> responding uh the way we would want it >> responding uh the way we would want it >> responding uh the way we would want it to and it's it can be very uh stressful to and it's it can be very uh stressful to and it's it can be very uh stressful and frustrating for somebody who feels and frustrating for somebody who feels and frustrating for somebody who feels like they're eating really well, like they're eating really well, like they're eating really well, training and doing all things. And so it training and doing all things. And so it training and doing all things. And so it I don't know this is the part about I don't know this is the part about I don't know this is the part about personal training I think is so valuable personal training I think is so valuable personal training I think is so valuable and why I think think tools like AI will and why I think think tools like AI will and why I think think tools like AI will never replace a good coach who can help never replace a good coach who can help never replace a good coach who can help somebody through this process because somebody through this process because somebody through this process because I've trained enough people to see I've trained enough people to see I've trained enough people to see anomalies like this all the time where anomalies like this all the time where anomalies like this all the time where it's just like this doesn't make sense, it's just like this doesn't make sense, it's just like this doesn't make sense, you know, and the body sometimes you know, and the body sometimes you know, and the body sometimes just rebelss and the math just doesn't just rebelss and the math just doesn't just rebelss and the math just doesn't math. It's like this, hey, based off of math. It's like this, hey, based off of math. It's like this, hey, based off of the amount of activity we're doing and the amount of activity we're doing and the amount of activity we're doing and based off of my macros and what I'm based off of my macros and what I'm based off of my macros and what I'm eating, this is what should be eating, this is what should be eating, this is what should be happening. Yet, it's it's not because of happening. Yet, it's it's not because of happening. Yet, it's it's not because of all these variables. all these variables. all these variables. >> Yeah. What I used to do back in the day, >> Yeah. What I used to do back in the day, >> Yeah. What I used to do back in the day, even before I fully understood uh even before I fully understood uh even before I fully understood uh reverse dieting, um like even because reverse dieting, um like even because reverse dieting, um like even because there was a point there where I really there was a point there where I really there was a point there where I really understood the the concept of uh reverse understood the the concept of uh reverse understood the the concept of uh reverse dieting. Even before that, when I'd get dieting. Even before that, when I'd get dieting. Even before that, when I'd get a client like this and we're doing the a client like this and we're doing the a client like this and we're doing the traditional, you know, we're doing some traditional, you know, we're doing some traditional, you know, we're doing some strength training, adding some activity, strength training, adding some activity, strength training, adding some activity, we're tracking calories and macros and we're tracking calories and macros and we're tracking calories and macros and we're cutting calories and then they get we're cutting calories and then they get we're cutting calories and then they get stuck, you know, 10 15 pound plateau stuck, you know, 10 15 pound plateau stuck, you know, 10 15 pound plateau away from their goal. And it would be away from their goal. And it would be away from their goal. And it would be for a while and I would give them a good for a while and I would give them a good for a while and I would give them a good month or two before I decide it was a month or two before I decide it was a month or two before I decide it was a plateau because you don't see this plateau because you don't see this plateau because you don't see this consistent fat loss. It's typically it's consistent fat loss. It's typically it's consistent fat loss. It's typically it's like you'll get a little bit and then like you'll get a little bit and then like you'll get a little bit and then it'll stop for a few weeks and it goes it'll stop for a few weeks and it goes it'll stop for a few weeks and it goes down again.

And we have these moments where we this. And we have these moments where we this. And we have these moments where we just had a week where I gave her a diet just had a week where I gave her a diet just had a week where I gave her a diet break and we have a diet break and uh I break and we have a diet break and uh I break and we have a diet break and uh I cut her like 500 calories a day. 500 cut her like 500 calories a day. 500 cut her like 500 calories a day. 500 calories a day. her steps were like at calories a day. her steps were like at calories a day. her steps were like at 10,000 which is increased from 8,000 10,000 which is increased from 8,000 10,000 which is increased from 8,000 steps so where she's no cardio but just steps so where she's no cardio but just steps so where she's no cardio but just increased activity reduced calories and increased activity reduced calories and increased activity reduced calories and so really was more about the diet break so really was more about the diet break so really was more about the diet break uh and every Sunday we have a check-in uh and every Sunday we have a check-in uh and every Sunday we have a check-in photos weight I get all her stats and photos weight I get all her stats and photos weight I get all her stats and everything like that uh and we're up 2 everything like that uh and we're up 2 everything like that uh and we're up 2 and a2 pounds on the scale post period and a2 pounds on the scale post period and a2 pounds on the scale post period too by the way so so last we things of too by the way so so last we things of too by the way so so last we things of that we're in the thick of period that we're in the thick of period that we're in the thick of period holding water all things so that so holding water all things so that so holding water all things so that so logically logically logically You know, as trainers, you go, "Okay, You know, as trainers, you go, "Okay, You know, as trainers, you go, "Okay, there's no way she's gaining fat in this there's no way she's gaining fat in this there's no way she's gaining fat in this week." week." week." >> Mhm. >> Mhm. >> Mhm. >> But her her body weight on the scale is >> But her her body weight on the scale is >> But her her body weight on the scale is up two or three pounds in a calorie up two or three pounds in a calorie up two or three pounds in a calorie reduction like that.

You doing all the right things and stuff like that and right things and stuff like that and right things and stuff like that and it's just like no results, no results. it's just like no results, no results. it's just like no results, no results. This sucks. I'm not seeing the results. This sucks. I'm not seeing the results. This sucks. I'm not seeing the results. Maybe even see a little bit of negative Maybe even see a little bit of negative Maybe even see a little bit of negative results. And then boom, one week you results. And then boom, one week you results. And then boom, one week you have and it's like you you look like you have and it's like you you look like you have and it's like you you look like you lost a percent or two of body fat. And lost a percent or two of body fat. And lost a percent or two of body fat. And so this this makes this difficult for so this this makes this difficult for so this this makes this difficult for people. people. people. >> It does. I I remember for myself uh one >> It does. I I remember for myself uh one >> It does. I I remember for myself uh one of the first times I allowed myself I of the first times I allowed myself I of the first times I allowed myself I say allowed because my challenge was uh say allowed because my challenge was uh say allowed because my challenge was uh you know I always wanted to gain weight you know I always wanted to gain weight you know I always wanted to gain weight uh but the first time I actually stuck uh but the first time I actually stuck uh but the first time I actually stuck through a a diet where I was trying to through a a diet where I was trying to through a a diet where I was trying to get myself down to like below 10%. I get myself down to like below 10%. I get myself down to like below 10%. I remember it got kind of hard towards 9% remember it got kind of hard towards 9% remember it got kind of hard towards 9% body fat. Uh you know appetite goes up body fat. Uh you know appetite goes up body fat. Uh you know appetite goes up the whole deal. But I got there and then the whole deal. But I got there and then the whole deal. But I got there and then I bumped my calories. I'm like cool I I bumped my calories. I'm like cool I I bumped my calories. I'm like cool I got here. Let me just eat more and bump got here. Let me just eat more and bump got here. Let me just eat more and bump my calories. Now, at this time, I had my calories. Now, at this time, I had my calories. Now, at this time, I had been doing regular uh caliber testing, been doing regular uh caliber testing, been doing regular uh caliber testing, okay? So, body fat testing. I had okay? So, body fat testing. I had okay? So, body fat testing. I had somebody test me, and I remember I somebody test me, and I remember I somebody test me, and I remember I bumped my calories, was eating more. Of bumped my calories, was eating more. Of bumped my calories, was eating more. Of course, you feel great, more energy, I'm course, you feel great, more energy, I'm course, you feel great, more energy, I'm stronger in the gym. And two weeks stronger in the gym. And two weeks stronger in the gym. And two weeks later, I'm just out of curiosity, let me later, I'm just out of curiosity, let me later, I'm just out of curiosity, let me see where my body fat percentage is. I see where my body fat percentage is. I see where my body fat percentage is. I went up on the scale. I remember how went up on the scale. I remember how went up on the scale. I remember how many pounds, like four or five pounds, many pounds, like four or five pounds, many pounds, like four or five pounds, and I was down to uh just below 8%. And and I was down to uh just below 8%. And and I was down to uh just below 8%. And I remember being like, what? How how did I remember being like, what? How how did I remember being like, what? How how did this how how is it that I ate more and I this how how is it that I ate more and I this how how is it that I ate more and I got leaner. I built I built into it. You got leaner. I built I built into it. You got leaner. I built I built into it. You know, body fat percentage. This is a know, body fat percentage. This is a know, body fat percentage. This is a percentage of your body that's body fat. percentage of your body that's body fat. percentage of your body that's body fat. So, what that means is if you're So, what that means is if you're So, what that means is if you're listening right now and I snap my listening right now and I snap my listening right now and I snap my fingers and you gain 10 pounds of just fingers and you gain 10 pounds of just fingers and you gain 10 pounds of just muscle, just muscle. So, you're 10 muscle, just muscle. So, you're 10 muscle, just muscle. So, you're 10 pounds heavier on the scale, your body pounds heavier on the scale, your body pounds heavier on the scale, your body fat percentage went down. Even if you fat percentage went down. Even if you fat percentage went down. Even if you don't lose a single pound of body fat. don't lose a single pound of body fat. don't lose a single pound of body fat. So, I think uh what a lot of people need So, I think uh what a lot of people need So, I think uh what a lot of people need to do in this situation here where to do in this situation here where to do in this situation here where they've been losing, losing, losing, they've been losing, losing, losing, they've been losing, losing, losing, they've been doing the what they think they've been doing the what they think they've been doing the what they think is the right thing, cutting their is the right thing, cutting their is the right thing, cutting their calories and doing more activity. Now, calories and doing more activity. Now, calories and doing more activity. Now, they're stuck with that plateau, that they're stuck with that plateau, that they're stuck with that plateau, that stubborn last whatever 10 lbs, 15 stubborn last whatever 10 lbs, 15 stubborn last whatever 10 lbs, 15 pounds. Build your way out of it. Watch pounds. Build your way out of it. Watch pounds. Build your way out of it. Watch what happens. It's this is when the what happens. It's this is when the what happens. It's this is when the magic starts to happen. We're working magic starts to happen. We're working magic starts to happen. We're working with your body. I will add to to to that with your body. I will add to to to that with your body. I will add to to to that though as you um to to mentally prepare though as you um to to mentally prepare though as you um to to mentally prepare you psychologically because the most you psychologically because the most you psychologically because the most difficult part is there there's an difficult part is there there's an difficult part is there there's an there's an uncomfortable phase of that there's an uncomfortable phase of that there's an uncomfortable phase of that and I think that's why it gets so and I think that's why it gets so and I think that's why it gets so difficult which we we we've all whether difficult which we we we've all whether difficult which we we we've all whether you're the person who is obsessed with you're the person who is obsessed with you're the person who is obsessed with getting big getting big getting big >> and so the cutting part or or vice versa >> and so the cutting part or or vice versa >> and so the cutting part or or vice versa you're afraid to get big um there you're afraid to get big um there you're afraid to get big um there there'll come a there'll come a time there'll come a there'll come a time there'll come a there'll come a time where you're you're doing the right where you're you're doing the right where you're you're doing the right things and it'll feel uncomfortable or things and it'll feel uncomfortable or things and it'll feel uncomfortable or it won't feel right And and I can't it won't feel right And and I can't it won't feel right And and I can't stress enough the advice you're giving stress enough the advice you're giving stress enough the advice you're giving is right is just to keep building the is right is just to keep building the is right is just to keep building the direction in and what I have found so direction in and what I have found so direction in and what I have found so long as you're eating whole foods long as you're eating whole foods long as you're eating whole foods hitting your protein intake right and hitting your protein intake right and hitting your protein intake right and and and feeding the body that way um you and and feeding the body that way um you and and feeding the body that way um you will be you won't you won't put on a will be you won't you won't put on a will be you won't you won't put on a bunch of body fat. bunch of body fat. bunch of body fat. >> All mess up real quick. >> All mess up real quick. >> All mess up real quick. >> Yeah. If you reverse diet and you're >> Yeah. If you reverse diet and you're >> Yeah. If you reverse diet and you're basically calling uh your reverse diet a basically calling uh your reverse diet a basically calling uh your reverse diet a reverse diet, but what you're really reverse diet, but what you're really reverse diet, but what you're really doing is just allowing yourself to eat doing is just allowing yourself to eat doing is just allowing yourself to eat whatever you want whenever you want and whatever you want whenever you want and whatever you want whenever you want and you're hungry. Like that's where you're hungry. Like that's where you're hungry. Like that's where >> healthy food. >> healthy food. >> healthy food. >> Yeah. But if you if you do this where >> Yeah. But if you if you do this where >> Yeah. But if you if you do this where you're like you're saying is reverse you're like you're saying is reverse you're like you're saying is reverse diet out when you're hungry feed feed a diet out when you're hungry feed feed a diet out when you're hungry feed feed a whole whole natural meal type of deal whole whole natural meal type of deal whole whole natural meal type of deal and leave with protein. I can't I I and leave with protein. I can't I I and leave with protein. I can't I I don't think I've ever seen anybody not don't think I've ever seen anybody not don't think I've ever seen anybody not have have success. They will probably go have have success. They will probably go have have success. They will probably go through a little bit of a uncomfortable through a little bit of a uncomfortable through a little bit of a uncomfortable phase. If you're really low calorie and phase. If you're really low calorie and phase. If you're really low calorie and you have someone bump three 300 to 500 you have someone bump three 300 to 500 you have someone bump three 300 to 500 calories, calories, calories, >> that could be a third of their day. >> that could be a third of their day. >> that could be a third of their day. >> You're gain some water. Yeah, you're >> You're gain some water. Yeah, you're >> You're gain some water. Yeah, you're going to gain some water weight uh that going to gain some water weight uh that going to gain some water weight uh that you're going to hold on to a little bit, you're going to hold on to a little bit, you're going to hold on to a little bit, which will make you feel like, "Oh my which will make you feel like, "Oh my which will make you feel like, "Oh my god, I got fatter." But trust me, uh 500 god, I got fatter." But trust me, uh 500 god, I got fatter." But trust me, uh 500 calories didn't put a pound of fat on calories didn't put a pound of fat on calories didn't put a pound of fat on you. Even if it put two or three lbs on you. Even if it put two or three lbs on you. Even if it put two or three lbs on the scale, it didn't put a pound of fat the scale, it didn't put a pound of fat the scale, it didn't put a pound of fat on you. um and just keep going that on you. um and just keep going that on you. um and just keep going that direction and you will you will direction and you will you will direction and you will you will eventually uh speed that metabolism up. eventually uh speed that metabolism up. eventually uh speed that metabolism up. You will build your way out of that that You will build your way out of that that You will build your way out of that that body fat reduction you want. And then body fat reduction you want. And then body fat reduction you want. And then kind of what we talked about the other kind of what we talked about the other kind of what we talked about the other day so many times too and this is a this day so many times too and this is a this day so many times too and this is a this is a recent lesson for myself I the last is a recent lesson for myself I the last is a recent lesson for myself I the last body fat test that uh discouraged or body fat test that uh discouraged or body fat test that uh discouraged or upset me. But then which I thought was upset me. But then which I thought was upset me. But then which I thought was so this is the opposite of situation so this is the opposite of situation so this is the opposite of situation I've had. I felt like I look pretty I've had. I felt like I look pretty I've had. I felt like I look pretty good. Wives compliment me. I'm feeling good. Wives compliment me. I'm feeling good. Wives compliment me. I'm feeling pretty good. I'm back to the walking pretty good. I'm back to the walking pretty good. I'm back to the walking around naked in the house brushing my around naked in the house brushing my around naked in the house brushing my teeth. Get a body fat test that came teeth. Get a body fat test that came teeth. Get a body fat test that came back went that's not good. back went that's not good. back went that's not good. >> Yeah. Yeah. >> Yeah. Yeah. >> Yeah. Yeah. >> And that and it messed with my head and >> And that and it messed with my head and >> And that and it messed with my head and because I'm like it wasn't the number because I'm like it wasn't the number because I'm like it wasn't the number that I expected. I'm really good at that I expected. I'm really good at that I expected. I'm really good at being able to guess that. But the truth being able to guess that. But the truth being able to guess that. But the truth is I just have I have more muscle under is I just have I have more muscle under is I just have I have more muscle under the body fat that that I have this time. the body fat that that I have this time. the body fat that that I have this time. And when I actually think about it, I'm And when I actually think about it, I'm And when I actually think about it, I'm like, you know what? I I like that. I like, you know what? I I like that. I like, you know what? I I like that. I don't mind. I don't. And so a lot of don't mind. I don't. And so a lot of don't mind. I don't. And so a lot of people are stuck on this scale number or people are stuck on this scale number or people are stuck on this scale number or body fat percentage number. But if they body fat percentage number. But if they body fat percentage number. But if they would just put more muscle on their would just put more muscle on their would just put more muscle on their body. body. body. >> So funny. A woman at 24% body fat who >> So funny. A woman at 24% body fat who >> So funny. A woman at 24% body fat who gains muscle and even stays the same gains muscle and even stays the same gains muscle and even stays the same body fat. So she gains some body fat body fat. So she gains some body fat body fat. So she gains some body fat with it. So 24 24 more muscle you look with it. So 24 24 more muscle you look with it. So 24 24 more muscle you look leaner. You have more shape on your leaner. You have more shape on your leaner. You have more shape on your body. You've got more sculpt. Same thing body. You've got more sculpt. Same thing body. You've got more sculpt. Same thing for a man. Uh so yeah, more muscle at for a man. Uh so yeah, more muscle at for a man. Uh so yeah, more muscle at looks better at higher body fat looks better at higher body fat looks better at higher body fat percentage and less muscle does. percentage and less muscle does. percentage and less muscle does. >> Yeah. Yeah. For sure. I I had a a >> Yeah. Yeah. For sure. I I had a a >> Yeah. Yeah. For sure. I I had a a question for you guys. Is there recently question for you guys. Is there recently question for you guys. Is there recently have either one of you guys almost got have either one of you guys almost got have either one of you guys almost got into a street fight? It wasn't a street fight or like a field It wasn't a street fight or like a field fight. I've been holding on. fight. I've been holding on. fight. I've been holding on. >> I've been dying to ass, dude. >> I've been dying to ass, dude. >> I've been dying to ass, dude. >> Oh, man. I know. I text right away cuz >> Oh, man. I know. I text right away cuz >> Oh, man. I know. I text right away cuz it was so shocking, you know, like I I it was so shocking, you know, like I I it was so shocking, you know, like I I think um you hear a lot of stories of think um you hear a lot of stories of think um you hear a lot of stories of like little league games and and you like little league games and and you like little league games and and you know, where parents go crazy and like know, where parents go crazy and like know, where parents go crazy and like just too interactive and they just don't just too interactive and they just don't just too interactive and they just don't let the refs heated let the refs heated let the refs heated >> and really like what's crazy about it. >> and really like what's crazy about it. >> and really like what's crazy about it. So I I left the studio and I was like So I I left the studio and I was like So I I left the studio and I was like wasn't sure if I was going to make the wasn't sure if I was going to make the wasn't sure if I was going to make the game cuz it's pretty far to get there game cuz it's pretty far to get there game cuz it's pretty far to get there from here. from here. from here. >> This is uh Everett's flag football. >> This is uh Everett's flag football. >> This is uh Everett's flag football. >> Yeah. >> Yeah. >> Yeah. >> So he's having a flag football game. So >> So he's having a flag football game. So >> So he's having a flag football game. So he's in the playoffs now. So he's in the playoffs now. So he's in the playoffs now. So >> Oh, >> Oh, >> Oh, >> there's an extra bit of intensity, you >> there's an extra bit of intensity, you >> there's an extra bit of intensity, you know, and know, and know, and >> so um I left and and I got there a >> so um I left and and I got there a >> so um I left and and I got there a little bit before the half. So I kind of little bit before the half. So I kind of little bit before the half. So I kind of didn't get a lot of the context of like didn't get a lot of the context of like didn't get a lot of the context of like how the game's been going. Like Courtney how the game's been going. Like Courtney how the game's been going. Like Courtney wasn't like keeping me updated. I get in wasn't like keeping me updated. I get in wasn't like keeping me updated. I get in there and it's like just you could feel there and it's like just you could feel there and it's like just you could feel the tension like already as I got very the tension like already as I got very the tension like already as I got very good game like and so we were actually good game like and so we were actually good game like and so we were actually behind by like two touchdowns uh when I behind by like two touchdowns uh when I behind by like two touchdowns uh when I got there and then we started making all got there and then we started making all got there and then we started making all this progress like right when I got this progress like right when I got this progress like right when I got there and I'm just like yeah like you there and I'm just like yeah like you there and I'm just like yeah like you know yelling they're all looking back at know yelling they're all looking back at know yelling they're all looking back at me like and um it was like the coaches me like and um it was like the coaches me like and um it was like the coaches were close to us the the spectators are were close to us the the spectators are were close to us the the spectators are on one side um our team's on the other on one side um our team's on the other on one side um our team's on the other side and so uh there was a lot of like side and so uh there was a lot of like side and so uh there was a lot of like engagement between their kind. engagement between their kind. engagement between their kind. >> So you're on the you're on the visitor >> So you're on the you're on the visitor >> So you're on the you're on the visitor side. side. side. >> We're on the visitor side with this.

Like it there was a lot of um call. Like it there was a lot of um call. Like it there was a lot of um talking with their coach was very very talking with their coach was very very talking with their coach was very very uh overstepping with the the referees uh overstepping with the the referees uh overstepping with the the referees and he was like, you know, he's flagg and he was like, you know, he's flagg and he was like, you know, he's flagg guarding, he's doing this like like guarding, he's doing this like like guarding, he's doing this like like every single thing. How much time they every single thing. How much time they every single thing. How much time they going to have on the field to figure going to have on the field to figure going to have on the field to figure this out? and he's like counting down this out? and he's like counting down this out? and he's like counting down the seconds they had in between plays the seconds they had in between plays the seconds they had in between plays and like saying like they're going over and like saying like they're going over and like saying like they're going over and it was like just overkill, you know, and it was like just overkill, you know, and it was like just overkill, you know, and uh and I'm just kind of like just and uh and I'm just kind of like just and uh and I'm just kind of like just trying to acclimate and get there and trying to acclimate and get there and trying to acclimate and get there and see what's going on and um you know see what's going on and um you know see what's going on and um you know Courtney's trying to update me with this Courtney's trying to update me with this Courtney's trying to update me with this and um and then there was like a lot of and um and then there was like a lot of and um and then there was like a lot of this chatter from one of the moms on our this chatter from one of the moms on our this chatter from one of the moms on our side and their coach specifically and it side and their coach specifically and it side and their coach specifically and it was like was like was like so she's in the stand and she's barking so she's in the stand and she's barking so she's in the stand and she's barking at him and he's down in the field. at him and he's down in the field. at him and he's down in the field. >> Yeah.

I think they missed like some four. I think they missed like some four. I think they missed like some extra point conversions along the way extra point conversions along the way extra point conversions along the way but um super close and it was like a but um super close and it was like a but um super close and it was like a great game. Like I wish it was just the great game. Like I wish it was just the great game. Like I wish it was just the game, you know, with the kids and that game, you know, with the kids and that game, you know, with the kids and that was it, right? And we all like, yeah, was it, right?

It was a ton of volume, a ton of, you know, was a ton of volume, a ton of, you know, was a ton of volume, a ton of, you know, just heavy lifting. Uh my focus right just heavy lifting. Uh my focus right just heavy lifting. Uh my focus right now, one is everything we do, I want to now, one is everything we do, I want to now, one is everything we do, I want to make sure it's safe. I I don't want to make sure it's safe. I I don't want to make sure it's safe. I I don't want to cause any problems for him, of course. cause any problems for him, of course. cause any problems for him, of course. Um and then two, you know, I want to Um and then two, you know, I want to Um and then two, you know, I want to maximize, you know, his ability to to maximize, you know, his ability to to maximize, you know, his ability to to get more athletic and and be able to get more athletic and and be able to get more athletic and and be able to compete with confidence as he uh kind of compete with confidence as he uh kind of compete with confidence as he uh kind of reaches the next stage of his athletic reaches the next stage of his athletic reaches the next stage of his athletic career. career. career. >> Awesome. >> Awesome. >> Awesome. >> So, I I I'm want to hear you guys out. >> So, I I I'm want to hear you guys out. >> So, I I I'm want to hear you guys out. Uh I know you guys are all athletes. Uh Uh I know you guys are all athletes. Uh Uh I know you guys are all athletes. Uh Justin, I know you you fellow fellow Justin, I know you you fellow fellow Justin, I know you you fellow fellow college football player um would love to college football player um would love to college football player um would love to hear your perspectives. hear your perspectives. hear your perspectives. >> That's really good. So there's really >> That's really good. So there's really >> That's really good. So there's really good data now that we didn't have uh good data now that we didn't have uh good data now that we didn't have uh back in the day on uh young athletes and back in the day on uh young athletes and back in the day on uh young athletes and what uh contributes to their performance what uh contributes to their performance what uh contributes to their performance later on the most. It's really really later on the most. It's really really later on the most. It's really really good data. Uh but before I talk about good data. Uh but before I talk about good data. Uh but before I talk about that, is he enjoying all this stuff? that, is he enjoying all this stuff? that, is he enjoying all this stuff? >> He is. He's really getting into it, man. >> He is. He's really getting into it, man. >> He is. He's really getting into it, man. Like his YouTube algorithm now when I Like his YouTube algorithm now when I Like his YouTube algorithm now when I check it, it's all fitness stuff. It's check it, it's all fitness stuff. It's check it, it's all fitness stuff. It's all exercise stuff. It's rad. all exercise stuff. It's rad. all exercise stuff. It's rad. >> Cuz that's number one. Number one, he's >> Cuz that's number one. Number one, he's >> Cuz that's number one. Number one, he's so young, you know, you want to make so young, you know, you want to make so young, you know, you want to make sure he uh he he's developing a good sure he uh he he's developing a good sure he uh he he's developing a good relationship with it. He likes it. relationship with it. He likes it. relationship with it. He likes it. Otherwise, you'll run into the like, you Otherwise, you'll run into the like, you Otherwise, you'll run into the like, you know, scenario where the kid gets pushed know, scenario where the kid gets pushed know, scenario where the kid gets pushed and then later on they're like, I don't and then later on they're like, I don't and then later on they're like, I don't want to do this anymore type of deal. want to do this anymore type of deal. want to do this anymore type of deal. >> The second thing, and this is the most >> The second thing, and this is the most >> The second thing, and this is the most important thing to focus on with a young important thing to focus on with a young important thing to focus on with a young athlete, especially one whose body is athlete, especially one whose body is athlete, especially one whose body is going to be changing rapidly, uh is body going to be changing rapidly, uh is body going to be changing rapidly, uh is body awareness and kinesthetic ability. more awareness and kinesthetic ability. more awareness and kinesthetic ability. more important than anything because so the important than anything because so the important than anything because so the the the brain is extremely plastic at the the brain is extremely plastic at the the brain is extremely plastic at younger ages. So a good example of this younger ages. So a good example of this younger ages. So a good example of this is like learning new languages. Like if is like learning new languages. Like if is like learning new languages. Like if you and I learn a new language right you and I learn a new language right you and I learn a new language right now, no matter how well we learn it, now, no matter how well we learn it, now, no matter how well we learn it, we're always going to have an American we're always going to have an American we're always going to have an American accent no matter what. But you teach a accent no matter what. But you teach a accent no matter what. But you teach a kid four different languages when kid four different languages when kid four different languages when they're young, they'll be able to speak they're young, they'll be able to speak they're young, they'll be able to speak all four of them as adults fluently. And all four of them as adults fluently. And all four of them as adults fluently. And that's because the brain has an ability that's because the brain has an ability that's because the brain has an ability when you're younger that you essentially when you're younger that you essentially when you're younger that you essentially lose when you're older. It's this this lose when you're older. It's this this lose when you're older. It's this this this plasticity. And this also extends this plasticity. And this also extends this plasticity. And this also extends to body awareness and kinesthetic to body awareness and kinesthetic to body awareness and kinesthetic ability. So what you learn when you're ability. So what you learn when you're ability. So what you learn when you're younger uh with body awareness will last younger uh with body awareness will last younger uh with body awareness will last and improve your athletic performance and improve your athletic performance and improve your athletic performance later. So here's what the data shows. later. So here's what the data shows. later. So here's what the data shows. Let's say you got a kid that's really Let's say you got a kid that's really Let's say you got a kid that's really gifted at baseball, okay? And let's say gifted at baseball, okay? And let's say gifted at baseball, okay? And let's say we could like duplicate that kid and and we could like duplicate that kid and and we could like duplicate that kid and and on one end we take them and we just on one end we take them and we just on one end we take them and we just focus on baseball because they're good focus on baseball because they're good focus on baseball because they're good at it and that's where we place all of at it and that's where we place all of at it and that's where we place all of our time and energy. and then they get our time and energy. and then they get our time and energy. and then they get to college and then and then they, you to college and then and then they, you to college and then and then they, you know, play at that level. Let's say on know, play at that level. Let's say on know, play at that level. Let's say on the other hand, we take this kid who the other hand, we take this kid who the other hand, we take this kid who loves baseball. He still plays baseball, loves baseball. He still plays baseball, loves baseball. He still plays baseball, but we also have him run, do gymnastics, but we also have him run, do gymnastics, but we also have him run, do gymnastics, do swimming, play golf, soccer. So, he's do swimming, play golf, soccer. So, he's do swimming, play golf, soccer. So, he's just doing a lot of different things up just doing a lot of different things up just doing a lot of different things up until he's probably a sophomore in high until he's probably a sophomore in high until he's probably a sophomore in high school. Then he focuses on baseball. school. Then he focuses on baseball. school. Then he focuses on baseball. He's going to be better at baseball than He's going to be better at baseball than He's going to be better at baseball than the kid that focused all his time on the kid that focused all his time on the kid that focused all his time on baseball baseball baseball >> because of that that general body >> because of that that general body >> because of that that general body awareness. Okay. So, that's the most awareness. Okay. So, that's the most awareness. Okay. So, that's the most it's even more important than getting it's even more important than getting it's even more important than getting him strong at a particular lift. It's him strong at a particular lift. It's him strong at a particular lift. It's more important than anything. So, more important than anything. So, more important than anything. So, variety is the name of the game. Uh when variety is the name of the game. Uh when variety is the name of the game. Uh when it comes to your kid, uh not getting him it comes to your kid, uh not getting him it comes to your kid, uh not getting him hurt, very, very important. As long as hurt, very, very important. As long as hurt, very, very important. As long as he loves it, it's great. Strength he loves it, it's great. Strength he loves it, it's great. Strength training is good for that. uh and and training is good for that. uh and and training is good for that. uh and and his body on top of that is changing so his body on top of that is changing so his body on top of that is changing so rapidly that body awareness becomes even rapidly that body awareness becomes even rapidly that body awareness becomes even more important because let's say he's more important because let's say he's more important because let's say he's really good at you know throwing a really good at you know throwing a really good at you know throwing a baseball right now and then in 3 months baseball right now and then in 3 months baseball right now and then in 3 months he gains an inch in height which could he gains an inch in height which could he gains an inch in height which could totally happen his body's totally totally happen his body's totally totally happen his body's totally different now his mechanics are off and different now his mechanics are off and different now his mechanics are off and it's going to be weird it's like when it's going to be weird it's like when it's going to be weird it's like when you see a puppy grow real quick kind of you see a puppy grow real quick kind of you see a puppy grow real quick kind of awkward awkward awkward >> and we've seen that we've seen that he's >> and we've seen that we've seen that he's >> and we've seen that we've seen that he's grown an inch in the last two months and grown an inch in the last two months and grown an inch in the last two months and you know he he does pitch and his you know he he does pitch and his you know he he does pitch and his control has suffered through that control has suffered through that control has suffered through that process. So, that makes a lot of sense. process. So, that makes a lot of sense. process. So, that makes a lot of sense. >> So, it's all about body awareness and >> So, it's all about body awareness and >> So, it's all about body awareness and variety. I love the carries. Uh, you variety. I love the carries. Uh, you variety. I love the carries. Uh, you know, the traditional exercise are good, know, the traditional exercise are good, know, the traditional exercise are good, too, but have him do lots of of too, but have him do lots of of too, but have him do lots of of different things and get used to his different things and get used to his different things and get used to his body. Body weight movements seem to be body. Body weight movements seem to be body. Body weight movements seem to be better at better at better at >> low suspension trainer. >> low suspension trainer. >> low suspension trainer. >> So, like what they call clos chain >> So, like what they call clos chain >> So, like what they call clos chain movements. So, like bench press is movements. So, like bench press is movements. So, like bench press is great, push-ups might be better, great, push-ups might be better, great, push-ups might be better, overhead press is good, shoulder uh, you overhead press is good, shoulder uh, you overhead press is good, shoulder uh, you know, handstand push-ups might be know, handstand push-ups might be know, handstand push-ups might be better. So, that So, you want to kind of better. So, that So, you want to kind of better. So, that So, you want to kind of look at that kind of stuff. Suspension look at that kind of stuff. Suspension look at that kind of stuff. Suspension trainer is great. Gymnastic style trainer is great. Gymnastic style trainer is great. Gymnastic style exercises are good exercises are good exercises are good >> and kind of like these these like like >> and kind of like these these like like >> and kind of like these these like like full body type movements, full body type movements, full body type movements, >> multiplaner type stuff for sure. Uh, and >> multiplaner type stuff for sure. Uh, and >> multiplaner type stuff for sure. Uh, and honestly, honestly, honestly, um, you know, going through this with um, you know, going through this with um, you know, going through this with that type of a an age range for me, like that type of a an age range for me, like that type of a an age range for me, like exposing them at the compound lifts, exposing them at the compound lifts, exposing them at the compound lifts, it's got to be very minimal, uh, and it's got to be very minimal, uh, and it's got to be very minimal, uh, and hyperfocused. So, you know, their hyperfocused. So, you know, their hyperfocused. So, you know, their mechanics are are everything with that. mechanics are are everything with that. mechanics are are everything with that. So, you know, like our 15 program, so I So, you know, like our 15 program, so I So, you know, like our 15 program, so I was thinking like performance 15, you was thinking like performance 15, you was thinking like performance 15, you know, just taking that sort of protocol, know, just taking that sort of protocol, know, just taking that sort of protocol, but then, you know, the days in between but then, you know, the days in between but then, you know, the days in between where he does his skill sessions and where he does his skill sessions and where he does his skill sessions and he's working on speed. One thing that's he's working on speed. One thing that's he's working on speed. One thing that's the one of the most uh important skills the one of the most uh important skills the one of the most uh important skills of basically any athlete is to is speed. of basically any athlete is to is speed. of basically any athlete is to is speed. Speed is going to carry them so much Speed is going to carry them so much Speed is going to carry them so much further than than most attributes. And further than than most attributes. And further than than most attributes. And you get speed by getting strong and then you get speed by getting strong and then you get speed by getting strong and then you know we apply acceleration to that. you know we apply acceleration to that. you know we apply acceleration to that. Uh and so to be able to have you know uh Uh and so to be able to have you know uh Uh and so to be able to have you know uh the ability of body control um you know the ability of body control um you know the ability of body control um you know move in different planes you know get move in different planes you know get move in different planes you know get exposure to those variables like S's exposure to those variables like S's exposure to those variables like S's talking about. It's like super talking about. It's like super talking about. It's like super important. So, you know, but light doses important. So, you know, but light doses important. So, you know, but light doses of compound lifts uh to really build up of compound lifts uh to really build up of compound lifts uh to really build up that baseline strength is going to be that baseline strength is going to be that baseline strength is going to be really important. But like uh the really important. But like uh the really important. But like uh the mistake I made and mistake a lot of mistake I made and mistake a lot of mistake I made and mistake a lot of athletes I've worked with make are they athletes I've worked with make are they athletes I've worked with make are they overdo that and they they do really long overdo that and they they do really long overdo that and they they do really long sessions. They do hourong to two hour sessions. They do hourong to two hour sessions. They do hourong to two hour long or they do it like four or five long or they do it like four or five long or they do it like four or five times a week. Uh I would reduce that times a week. Uh I would reduce that times a week. Uh I would reduce that down to like maybe two to three but like down to like maybe two to three but like down to like maybe two to three but like only two to three like compound lifts on only two to three like compound lifts on only two to three like compound lifts on those days. Two exercises on those days those days. Two exercises on those days those days. Two exercises on those days and that's it. So it' be like a 15 and that's it. So it' be like a 15 and that's it. So it' be like a 15 protocol but just like twice a week. Uh protocol but just like twice a week. Uh protocol but just like twice a week. Uh and then the rest of it is all just you and then the rest of it is all just you and then the rest of it is all just you know field work and and speed work. So know field work and and speed work. So know field work and and speed work. So that I mean that would be my suggestion. that I mean that would be my suggestion. that I mean that would be my suggestion. >> Yeah. I' I'd send over maps 15 >> Yeah. I' I'd send over maps 15 >> Yeah. I' I'd send over maps 15 performance to him. Uh you can use those performance to him. Uh you can use those performance to him. Uh you can use those first of all. Does he play does he is he first of all. Does he play does he is he first of all. Does he play does he is he in other sports too or is it just in other sports too or is it just in other sports too or is it just baseball he's into? baseball he's into? baseball he's into? >> You know he was he played basketball and >> You know he was he played basketball and >> You know he was he played basketball and soccer and then you know once he was soccer and then you know once he was soccer and then you know once he was done with his 12year-old seasons he done with his 12year-old seasons he done with his 12year-old seasons he really just wanted to focus on baseball. really just wanted to focus on baseball. really just wanted to focus on baseball. >> So it was kind of his call. we kind of >> So it was kind of his call. we kind of >> So it was kind of his call. we kind of push him to do other things and and try push him to do other things and and try push him to do other things and and try to get him into flag. He's going to be to get him into flag. He's going to be to get him into flag. He's going to be huge, right? So, I'm like, you know, huge, right? So, I'm like, you know, huge, right? So, I'm like, you know, football is always there. Um, but, you football is always there. Um, but, you football is always there. Um, but, you know, he just he loves baseball and know, he just he loves baseball and know, he just he loves baseball and that's what he wants to focus on. that's what he wants to focus on. that's what he wants to focus on. >> We did a really cool interview years >> We did a really cool interview years >> We did a really cool interview years ago. Uh, it was Chad Wesley Smith. ago. Uh, it was Chad Wesley Smith. ago. Uh, it was Chad Wesley Smith. >> Yes, you'd love it. It's all about like >> Yes, you'd love it. It's all about like >> Yes, you'd love it. It's all about like talk about this. This is we we we go talk about this. This is we we we go talk about this.

Really really and all that looks like. Really really and all that looks like. Really really good. I'll have Doug look up what good. I'll have Doug look up what good. I'll have Doug look up what episode number it is and I'll give it to episode number it is and I'll give it to episode number it is and I'll give it to you. Um you'll you'll enjoy that you.

Uh Brazilian jiu-jitsu is wrestling. Uh Brazilian jiu-jitsu is wrestling. Uh Brazilian jiu-jitsu is another one. Rock climbing is another another one. Rock climbing is another another one. Rock climbing is another one. And so, and now this wouldn't be one. And so, and now this wouldn't be one. And so, and now this wouldn't be where he would spend his time like where he would spend his time like where he would spend his time like really trying to be the best. It would really trying to be the best. It would really trying to be the best. It would be fun. be fun. be fun. >> Sure. >> Sure. >> Sure. >> So, wrestling might be difficult because >> So, wrestling might be difficult because >> So, wrestling might be difficult because if he goes and wrestles in school, you if he goes and wrestles in school, you if he goes and wrestles in school, you know, wrestling coaches are pretty damn know, wrestling coaches are pretty damn know, wrestling coaches are pretty damn intense.

That's everything. And awareness, dude. That's everything. And awareness, dude. That's everything. And then, and then rock climbing is the then, and then rock climbing is the then, and then rock climbing is the other one is if like, hey, you want to other one is if like, hey, you want to other one is if like, hey, you want to have fun, you want to try doing some have fun, you want to try doing some have fun, you want to try doing some rock climbing, whatever. But if he's rock climbing, whatever. But if he's rock climbing, whatever. But if he's interested in jiu-jitsu, I bet you, you interested in jiu-jitsu, I bet you, you interested in jiu-jitsu, I bet you, you know, you know, I don't know how much know, you know, I don't know how much know, you know, I don't know how much how much practice he's doing with how much practice he's doing with how much practice he's doing with baseball, but like one or two days a baseball, but like one or two days a baseball, but like one or two days a week of jiu-jitsu would just make him a week of jiu-jitsu would just make him a week of jiu-jitsu would just make him a better athlete. better athlete. better athlete. >> Yeah. >> Yeah. >> Yeah. >> Awesome.

Patrick Mahomes was a Patrick Mahomes. Patrick Mahomes was a Patrick Mahomes. Patrick Mahomes was a superstar baseball player and football superstar baseball player and football superstar baseball player and football player. And if you watch the way he can player. And if you watch the way he can player. And if you watch the way he can he can contort his body and throw the he can contort his body and throw the he can contort his body and throw the ball like nobody before him has been ball like nobody before him has been ball like nobody before him has been able to. And so you're starting to see able to. And so you're starting to see able to. And so you're starting to see these kids that are that grew up these kids that are that grew up these kids that are that grew up understanding this philosophy and they understanding this philosophy and they understanding this philosophy and they have a total edge. And so it's it's have a total edge. And so it's it's have a total edge. And so it's it's evolving sports, but we we we talk about evolving sports, but we we we talk about evolving sports, but we we we talk about players like Tiger Woods, like Michael players like Tiger Woods, like Michael players like Tiger Woods, like Michael Jordan.

I have two little boys and um over the past three little boys and um over the past three little boys and um over the past three years I've lost more than 30 pounds years I've lost more than 30 pounds years I've lost more than 30 pounds through cardio, macro tracking and then through cardio, macro tracking and then through cardio, macro tracking and then eventually strength training. Along the eventually strength training. Along the eventually strength training. Along the way, I also fell into a cycle of way, I also fell into a cycle of way, I also fell into a cycle of overtraining restriction and body overtraining restriction and body overtraining restriction and body dysmorphia. But after working with a dysmorphia. But after working with a dysmorphia. But after working with a coach to rebuild a healthier coach to rebuild a healthier coach to rebuild a healthier relationship with food and training, I'm relationship with food and training, I'm relationship with food and training, I'm now in a much better place. But I'm now in a much better place. But I'm now in a much better place. But I'm unsure how to move forward with my unsure how to move forward with my unsure how to move forward with my goals. So, a little bit of background. I goals. So, a little bit of background. I goals. So, a little bit of background. I started my fitness journey in 2023 when started my fitness journey in 2023 when started my fitness journey in 2023 when I bought a popular spin bike and began I bought a popular spin bike and began I bought a popular spin bike and began doing classes at home every day. My doing classes at home every day. My doing classes at home every day. My youngest son was utterly confused and youngest son was utterly confused and youngest son was utterly confused and kept asking why I was riding a bike and kept asking why I was riding a bike and kept asking why I was riding a bike and not going anywhere. And he was right not going anywhere. And he was right not going anywhere. And he was right because I lost 15 pounds and then because I lost 15 pounds and then because I lost 15 pounds and then stopped going anywhere. I plateaued stopped going anywhere. I plateaued stopped going anywhere. I plateaued really quickly. Uh that's when I found really quickly. Uh that's when I found really quickly. Uh that's when I found the carbon diet coach. I started the carbon diet coach. I started the carbon diet coach. I started tracking macros, dialed in on calories, tracking macros, dialed in on calories, tracking macros, dialed in on calories, started eating enough protein, and then started eating enough protein, and then started eating enough protein, and then the weight began to drop off again. So, the weight began to drop off again. So, the weight began to drop off again. So, at that time, I also started strength at that time, I also started strength at that time, I also started strength training, and I gradually built up a training, and I gradually built up a training, and I gradually built up a home gym. And by the fall of 2024, I had home gym. And by the fall of 2024, I had home gym. And by the fall of 2024, I had reached my lowest weight of 122 lbs and reached my lowest weight of 122 lbs and reached my lowest weight of 122 lbs and 19% body fat. So, I looked slim, but I 19% body fat. So, I looked slim, but I 19% body fat. So, I looked slim, but I didn't have the physique I wanted. So, I didn't have the physique I wanted. So, I didn't have the physique I wanted. So, I kept pushing harder, strength training kept pushing harder, strength training kept pushing harder, strength training five days a week, doing cardio almost five days a week, doing cardio almost five days a week, doing cardio almost every day, and then fell into just a every day, and then fell into just a every day, and then fell into just a cycle of dysmorphia and restricting and cycle of dysmorphia and restricting and cycle of dysmorphia and restricting and binging. I felt awful and I knew binging. I felt awful and I knew binging. I felt awful and I knew something needed to change. So, I'd been something needed to change. So, I'd been something needed to change. So, I'd been listening to you guys for a little while listening to you guys for a little while listening to you guys for a little while and I decided to hire a coach. She and I decided to hire a coach. She and I decided to hire a coach. She helped me rebuild balance. She increased helped me rebuild balance. She increased helped me rebuild balance. She increased my calories from 1,800 to 2400, reduced my calories from 1,800 to 2400, reduced my calories from 1,800 to 2400, reduced my training to three days a week, and my training to three days a week, and my training to three days a week, and told me I could do cardio, but it was told me I could do cardio, but it was told me I could do cardio, but it was optional, not mandatory. So, my weight optional, not mandatory. So, my weight optional, not mandatory. So, my weight went up and stabilized at 134 lbs, and I went up and stabilized at 134 lbs, and I went up and stabilized at 134 lbs, and I felt really great. So, at my request, we felt really great. So, at my request, we felt really great. So, at my request, we ran an 8week cut last fall so I could ran an 8week cut last fall so I could ran an 8week cut last fall so I could practice doing it in a more sustainable practice doing it in a more sustainable practice doing it in a more sustainable way. I reached 127 lbs, but I felt way. I reached 127 lbs, but I felt way. I reached 127 lbs, but I felt really crummy and I was really hungry, really crummy and I was really hungry, really crummy and I was really hungry, so I returned to maintenance. And that's so I returned to maintenance. And that's so I returned to maintenance. And that's where I've been ever since. So now, um, where I've been ever since. So now, um, where I've been ever since. So now, um, my weight has stayed the same. I'm my weight has stayed the same. I'm my weight has stayed the same. I'm probably about 22% body fat, 2200 probably about 22% body fat, 2200 probably about 22% body fat, 2200 calories a day, 130 to 140 gram of calories a day, 130 to 140 gram of calories a day, 130 to 140 gram of protein, three or four strength days. I protein, three or four strength days. I protein, three or four strength days. I do one lower, one upper, and two full do one lower, one upper, and two full do one lower, one upper, and two full body days. I use the second full body body days. I use the second full body body days. I use the second full body day as optional, so I don't force myself day as optional, so I don't force myself day as optional, so I don't force myself to do it, but I do complete it most of to do it, but I do complete it most of to do it, but I do complete it most of the time. And I train at home with a the time. And I train at home with a the time. And I train at home with a home gym. I homeschool my kids, and I home gym. I homeschool my kids, and I home gym. I homeschool my kids, and I run our household. So, I'm pretty active run our household. So, I'm pretty active run our household. So, I'm pretty active during the day, but my main struggle now during the day, but my main struggle now during the day, but my main struggle now is uh my lower body. So, my upper body, is uh my lower body. So, my upper body, is uh my lower body. So, my upper body, oops, uh slims out really easily, and oops, uh slims out really easily, and oops, uh slims out really easily, and then I carry most of my body fat around then I carry most of my body fat around then I carry most of my body fat around my hips and glutes. And I have my hips and glutes. And I have my hips and glutes. And I have cellulite, which I hate. Even at my cellulite, which I hate. Even at my cellulite, which I hate. Even at my lowest body weight, I still had lowest body weight, I still had lowest body weight, I still had cellulite. So, my coach explained that cellulite. So, my coach explained that cellulite. So, my coach explained that achie achieving the look I wanted would achie achieving the look I wanted would achie achieving the look I wanted would require a level of restriction that require a level of restriction that require a level of restriction that probably wasn't going to be sustainable probably wasn't going to be sustainable probably wasn't going to be sustainable for me long term. And I understand that, for me long term. And I understand that, for me long term. And I understand that, but at the same time, I do want to but at the same time, I do want to but at the same time, I do want to continue to improve my physique. So my continue to improve my physique. So my continue to improve my physique. So my question for you guys is, is it question for you guys is, is it question for you guys is, is it realistic for me to continue improving realistic for me to continue improving realistic for me to continue improving my lower body composition while eating my lower body composition while eating my lower body composition while eating maintenance, or would pursuing this goal maintenance, or would pursuing this goal maintenance, or would pursuing this goal likely require a deficit that risks likely require a deficit that risks likely require a deficit that risks pushing me back towards unhealth pushing me back towards unhealth pushing me back towards unhealth unhealthy habits? How can I focus on unhealthy habits? How can I focus on unhealthy habits? How can I focus on building more muscle in my lower body building more muscle in my lower body building more muscle in my lower body through adjusting my training structure? through adjusting my training structure? through adjusting my training structure? Or is this mostly a matter of genetics Or is this mostly a matter of genetics Or is this mostly a matter of genetics and just false expectations for women? and just false expectations for women? and just false expectations for women? Um, the biggest win for me over the last Um, the biggest win for me over the last Um, the biggest win for me over the last year has been rebuilding a healthier year has been rebuilding a healthier year has been rebuilding a healthier relationship with food and training. So, relationship with food and training. So, relationship with food and training. So, protecting that progress is really protecting that progress is really protecting that progress is really important to me. Um, thank you for important to me. Um, thank you for important to me. Um, thank you for everything you do. I've learned a lot everything you do. I've learned a lot everything you do.

A year from now, >> A year a year from now. A year from now, >> A year a year from now. A year from now, your lower body is going to look your lower body is going to look your lower body is going to look radically different after squatting and radically different after squatting and radically different after squatting and deadlifting for a year. deadlifting for a year. deadlifting for a year. >> You're fine. Yep. >> You're fine. Yep. >> You're fine. Yep. >> Yeah. You could get away with bumping >> Yeah. You could get away with bumping >> Yeah. You could get away with bumping your calories about 200 more calories, your calories about 200 more calories, your calories about 200 more calories, just so you know. just so you know. just so you know. >> I think it would be better. >> I think it would be better. >> I think it would be better. >> So, I would I would feed you a little >> So, I would I would feed you a little >> So, I would I would feed you a little bit more and I would try and get strong bit more and I would try and get strong bit more and I would try and get strong in the squat and the deadlift like let's in the squat and the deadlift like let's in the squat and the deadlift like let's keep going and watch what your lower keep going and watch what your lower keep going and watch what your lower body ends up shaping up. And honestly, I body ends up shaping up. And honestly, I body ends up shaping up. And honestly, I want your body fat percentage about want your body fat percentage about want your body fat percentage about where it's at. where it's at. where it's at. >> I don't really want to get but it'll >> I don't really want to get but it'll >> I don't really want to get but it'll look different when we put 5 to 10 lbs look different when we put 5 to 10 lbs look different when we put 5 to 10 lbs of muscle on that body.
