• 1:09
  Speaker 1: but Nick's gonna give his you know, his answer. I
• 1:11
  Speaker 1: will throw all my two cents here and there.
• 1:13
  Speaker 2: Mm oh.
• 1:14
  Speaker 1: We got a good amount of questions that came in,
• 1:16
  Speaker 1: so we're gonna try to cover what we can today.
• 1:19
  Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, okay, So question number one, all right, so
• 1:24
  Speaker 2: you mentioned drinking warm water is better fresh excuse orange
• 1:28
  Speaker 2: juice is cold is normal because the orange is the
• 1:34
  Speaker 2: orange is stole cold and cold, do you need to
• 1:38
  Speaker 2: warm it up before drinking it? And then there's a
• 1:41
  Speaker 2: whole bunch of stuff about temperatures and children and stuff
• 1:45
  Speaker 2: like that. And look, if you're trying to get hydrated,
• 1:50
  Speaker 2: like really fast, because you're dehydrated and completing you're competing
• 1:53
  Speaker 2: in an athletic event, it's better because your body has
• 1:56
  Speaker 2: to warm it up before it's let go into the
• 2:01
  Speaker 2: body for hydration. So it just takes a little bit
• 2:04
  Speaker 2: longer when it's cold. Everyday life and things like that,
• 2:08
  Speaker 2: it's really not going to make a massive impact of
• 2:11
  Speaker 2: a difference if it's colder, if it's warm. So if
• 2:14
  Speaker 2: you're training hard and you're doing a bunch of stuff,
• 2:17
  Speaker 2: you know, drink your water, you know, tap water, room
• 2:20
  Speaker 2: temperature not necessarily warm, just room temperature. You know, it's
• 2:23
  Speaker 2: one hundred and five degrees outside. It's a whole different story.
• 2:27
  Speaker 1: Core temperature down.
• 2:29
  Speaker 2: Yeah, And then like for orange juice, if you can
• 2:31
  Speaker 2: squeeze it yourself, yeah, drink it as is. And if
• 2:35
  Speaker 2: you're storing it in the fridge because they want to
• 2:37
  Speaker 2: keep it cold so it lasts longer and stuff like that,
• 2:40
  Speaker 2: you know, it's going to be fine. To drink it cold.
• 2:42
  Speaker 2: It's just you know, it's good to take you. It's
• 2:45
  Speaker 2: not going to get into your system until your body.
• 2:47
  Speaker 2: The fluids will not get into your system until your
• 2:50
  Speaker 2: body warms it up, you know. But your your stomach
• 2:53
  Speaker 2: will start processing the sugar and the vitamin C and
• 2:55
  Speaker 2: all the other things that are in the orange. It's
• 2:58
  Speaker 2: just the fluids when don't get released till they get
• 3:01
  Speaker 2: to your body's temperature. That's it. It's it's not a
• 3:05
  Speaker 2: lot of this stuff. It's little things to make you
• 3:08
  Speaker 2: a little bit better. It's not gonna be it's not
• 3:11
  Speaker 2: gonna like be the end of the world. If you
• 3:14
  Speaker 2: drink something cold, it's not.
• 3:16
  Speaker 1: Gonna be something warm.
• 3:18
  Speaker 2: It's not judgmental. So it's just if you're competing an
• 3:23
  Speaker 2: athletic event and you're doing things for money and stuff
• 3:26
  Speaker 2: like that. Yeah, drinking at room temperature is definitely better
• 3:29
  Speaker 2: everyday stuff. I mean, if you want to drink it warm,
• 3:34
  Speaker 2: you can drink it warm. It's okay. You can freshly
• 3:36
  Speaker 2: squeeze the stuff yourself and one of the oranges were
• 3:39
  Speaker 2: sitting in your in a little fruit basket. You know,
• 3:42
  Speaker 2: that's cool. It's not a problem either way. So it's
• 3:46
  Speaker 2: all good there, okay, exactly. Yeah, so you should be
• 3:50
  Speaker 2: fine with that, okay, uh uh, I'll.
• 4:00
  Speaker 1: Read the next one on there. It says, does the
• 4:03
  Speaker 1: sleep position matter, such as lying on your right side,
• 4:06
  Speaker 1: bet knees, fetal position, two feet facing each other, you know,
• 4:12
  Speaker 1: you know, sleeping in the position that's going to make comfortable.
• 4:16
  Speaker 1: I always feel that's going to be the best position, right.
• 4:18
  Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean, whatever you can sleep soundly, whatever position
• 4:23
  Speaker 2: you sleep slunly in, that's probably the best position for you.
• 4:26
  Speaker 2: When I was younger, used to sleep on my stomach.
• 4:28
  Speaker 2: Now that I'm older, I sleep on my back. I
• 4:31
  Speaker 2: also have to use the seapap so because of the
• 4:36
  Speaker 2: musculature and stuff like that in my neck. When it relaxes,
• 4:39
  Speaker 2: it relaxes, and it you know, causes snoring. So I
• 4:45
  Speaker 2: sleep flat on my back with the seapap. It took
• 4:48
  Speaker 2: me a while to get used to that. I put
• 4:49
  Speaker 2: pillows under my beneath my legs when I first started that.
• 4:53
  Speaker 2: Now I'm just used to it, so it doesn't bother
• 4:55
  Speaker 2: me at all. I have a memory foam bed, so
• 4:57
  Speaker 2: I just kind of sink in the bed and I
• 4:58
  Speaker 2: get in a real comfortable position. And some people do
• 5:03
  Speaker 2: move around a lot at night. They move around because
• 5:05
  Speaker 2: either hot, they're too caught, they're too cold, or they
• 5:09
  Speaker 2: just they're antser move around. It happens. If you can
• 5:14
  Speaker 2: find a good position where you sleep in where you
• 5:16
  Speaker 2: don't move very much, you're gonna get probably the best
• 5:19
  Speaker 2: sleep out of that. And that will make a big
• 5:21
  Speaker 2: difference in everything that you do. It will you'll be
• 5:24
  Speaker 2: mentally frushrat the next day, stuff like that. And I
• 5:28
  Speaker 2: do have times when I go to sleep and I
• 5:30
  Speaker 2: wake up and you know, it was eight hours. I
• 5:32
  Speaker 2: was like, wow, that was fast. And other times when
• 5:35
  Speaker 2: you go to sleep and I sleep for like three hours,
• 5:38
  Speaker 2: and I wake up for a second, and I go
• 5:39
  Speaker 2: back to sleep, and then I sleep another three hours,
• 5:41
  Speaker 2: wake up and go back to sleep, and it feels like,
• 5:43
  Speaker 2: you know, I slept a really long time, and in reality,
• 5:46
  Speaker 2: I slept the same amount of time. So that's normal.
• 5:51
  Speaker 2: You're getting to dreams and stuff like that. It's good
• 5:55
  Speaker 2: your mind puts itself back together at night where you're
• 5:57
  Speaker 2: sleeping as well, So those are always good things. If
• 6:00
  Speaker 2: you're not dreaming at all, you know, it's you know,
• 6:04
  Speaker 2: you're trying to get into the deep realm of sleep
• 6:07
  Speaker 2: when you do that, because that's when ren sleep. Your
• 6:10
  Speaker 2: body releases human growth hormone in rent sleep, and it
• 6:14
  Speaker 2: rents sleeps relatively short anyway, it's you know, an hour
• 6:17
  Speaker 2: and a half to two and a half hours, you know, varying.
• 6:20
  Speaker 2: It's not a very long time, so it's normal. You know.
• 6:28
  Speaker 2: Just just get the best sleep that you can. And
• 6:32
  Speaker 2: it does make a difference, but just get the best
• 6:35
  Speaker 2: sleep that you can because everybody's different and if you
• 6:39
  Speaker 2: improve where you're at today, then it's going to be better.
• 6:42
  Speaker 2: And that's all you can do is just keep trying
• 6:44
  Speaker 2: to improve your sleep as best as you can, find
• 6:47
  Speaker 2: your normal and then function from there.
• 6:50
  Speaker 1: And one of the things I'll add to that too
• 6:51
  Speaker 1: is a lot of people don't think like this, but
• 6:54
  Speaker 1: you have to practice your sleep. You know what I'm saying.
• 6:57
  Speaker 1: It's you know, it's just one of those things. It
• 7:00
  Speaker 1: comes with time because like people I can't sleep, but
• 7:03
  Speaker 1: you know on this, you know like it. I was like, no,
• 7:06
  Speaker 1: just like anything else, if you train it, you'll do it.
• 7:09
  Speaker 2: Yeah, Like there's certain things that now I do when
• 7:13
  Speaker 2: I go to sleep. I mean I usually spend about
• 7:17
  Speaker 2: ten to fifteen minutes just kind of clearing my mind
• 7:19
  Speaker 2: and almost meditating before I go to sleep, and then
• 7:24
  Speaker 2: I put my mask on. Once I put my mask on,
• 7:27
  Speaker 2: it's time to go to sleep, and I usually will
• 7:29
  Speaker 2: be asleep within like ten ten minutes at most once
• 7:32
  Speaker 2: I put my mask on. Bodies trained to go to
• 7:34
  Speaker 2: sleep once put the mask on. I also try to
• 7:37
  Speaker 2: stay extremely consistent with my sleeping time. This runs into
• 7:42
  Speaker 2: problems for people that work swing shift or even graveyard shifts.
• 7:46
  Speaker 2: But if you get used to going to sleep at
• 7:49
  Speaker 2: the same time every day, you're going to be just fine.
• 7:52
  Speaker 2: The problem with that is going to be when you're
• 7:55
  Speaker 2: on your days off and everybody's asleep and you're not
• 7:59
  Speaker 2: doing what you normally do. That's that's the part they'll
• 8:01
  Speaker 2: be challenging for you. But if you can work around
• 8:05
  Speaker 2: it a little bit, stay up a little bit later
• 8:07
  Speaker 2: one or two nights a week when you're rotating schedules around,
• 8:12
  Speaker 2: like if you have a graveyard shift, to get to
• 8:14
  Speaker 2: see the people or do the things you need to
• 8:16
  Speaker 2: do and get done in those days. It's not the
• 8:18
  Speaker 2: end of the world. It's just how life's going to be,
• 8:21
  Speaker 2: and all you can do is make the best of
• 8:23
  Speaker 2: that part of it as you can, but you still
• 8:26
  Speaker 2: need to make sure you're getting at least on those
• 8:29
  Speaker 2: days minimum six hours of sleep. So it's it's getting
• 8:34
  Speaker 2: the rest is important. And then on your regular days,
• 8:37
  Speaker 2: try to get at least seven on your regular days.
• 8:40
  Speaker 2: If you can get eight, you know, that's that's that's
• 8:44
  Speaker 2: the perfect amount. So and if your body needs more,
• 8:46
  Speaker 2: it'll take more. If you don't set an alarm, I
• 8:49
  Speaker 2: appreciate it. Your body will let you know. If you
• 8:52
  Speaker 2: don't set an alarm, your body will let you know,
• 8:54
  Speaker 2: and it's ready to wake up. And like now, because
• 8:58
  Speaker 2: they go to sleep at a consistent time, my body
• 9:00
  Speaker 2: just wakes up. My body will usually wake up about
• 9:03
  Speaker 2: five minutes before my alarm. Now it just does. Yeah,
• 9:06
  Speaker 2: I wake up. I look at the phone. I'm like, yep,
• 9:08
  Speaker 2: here we go another days going and off and running
• 9:11
  Speaker 2: we go. So I mean, it's you. You want to
• 9:15
  Speaker 2: do the best that you can. But just remember a
• 9:18
  Speaker 2: lot of the stuff. It's important, but it's not rocket science,
• 9:21
  Speaker 2: you know, So take it seriously, but don't take it
• 9:25
  Speaker 2: seriously to the point where you obsess about it, if
• 9:28
  Speaker 2: that makes any sense.
• 9:30
  Speaker 1: So all right, well let's get the question two here, Okay,
• 9:35
  Speaker 1: it says elderly people are prone to fall, what type
• 9:39
  Speaker 1: of strength training can't help prevent falling and in creatings
• 9:42
  Speaker 1: bone density? And the second part to that is during meditation,
• 9:47
  Speaker 1: what strength training exercises can women do or is there
• 9:51
  Speaker 1: a better better to avoid exercise altogether?
• 9:54
  Speaker 2: Which it's when men when men's training men? Yeah, yes,
• 9:59
  Speaker 2: men's is what it says, is not it's no, it's okay. Basically,
• 10:10
  Speaker 2: I'll start with the first one first. Utterly, people just
• 10:13
  Speaker 2: need to be active and do as much as you can.
• 10:15
  Speaker 2: Any weight bearing exercise over what they were doing is
• 10:19
  Speaker 2: going to build bone density. You know, if they make
• 10:22
  Speaker 2: sure they get a decent amount of calcium and get
• 10:24
  Speaker 2: good food in, they'll build. They'll their bone density will slow,
• 10:29
  Speaker 2: will their decline and bone density will slow. Weight bearing exercises.
• 10:35
  Speaker 2: And it doesn't have to be fancy stuff. I mean,
• 10:36
  Speaker 2: some of it's just going for a walk and putting
• 10:38
  Speaker 2: on a backpack, something simple. It doesn't have to be
• 10:42
  Speaker 2: like ten cuts of ten on squats or five you know,
• 10:46
  Speaker 2: anything crazy. It just has to be uh, you know,
• 10:51
  Speaker 2: activity that you know you're doing some type of load
• 10:54
  Speaker 2: bearing thing to put stress on the bones to uh
• 10:58
  Speaker 2: make them get stronger, that's all. It doesn't. It's you know,
• 11:02
  Speaker 2: so going upstairs, carrying a backpack up the stairs, you know,
• 11:06
  Speaker 2: five ten pounds extra in the backpack. Things like that,
• 11:09
  Speaker 2: over time will make a difference. And movement is the
• 11:11
  Speaker 2: key to longevity, you know, staying active, getting up, doing things,
• 11:15
  Speaker 2: doing chores around the house, doing going out and playing
• 11:19
  Speaker 2: with the kids. I mean, just all kinds. Any kind
• 11:22
  Speaker 2: of movement's going to help. And old age, it's it
• 11:26
  Speaker 2: catches up to everybody. It's undefeated for the most part,
• 11:32
  Speaker 2: but you can do things. They'll stave it off as
• 11:35
  Speaker 2: long as absolutely possible. My parents both they live in
• 11:41
  Speaker 2: a ranch, so they're moving hay around. They're in their
• 11:44
  Speaker 2: mid seventies and they're moving hay around and they're you know,
• 11:48
  Speaker 2: taking care of horses and all the chores around there.
• 11:50
  Speaker 2: Keep their bones really dense. My mom is becoming prone
• 11:54
  Speaker 2: to falling, but she just falls and gets right back
• 11:57
  Speaker 2: up and keeps right on going. She's got to inner
• 11:59
  Speaker 2: ear problem, loses her balance, but you know, she's got
• 12:04
  Speaker 2: really good bone Dencity because she stays busy and she
• 12:07
  Speaker 2: works around, works around around, just doing normal stuff. She
• 12:11
  Speaker 2: doesn't do a ton of crazy exercises. She doesn't. She'll
• 12:15
  Speaker 2: walk on a treadmill, she'll walk on the road, so
• 12:17
  Speaker 2: ride a bike or a trike. You know, she'll do
• 12:22
  Speaker 2: things to stay physically active, and that's keeping your bone
• 12:24
  Speaker 2: density yet. So okay, so the second part about that
• 12:30
  Speaker 2: you can do anything during mens reading that you were
• 12:32
  Speaker 2: doing before. I mean, there's nothing you can't do during that.
• 12:37
  Speaker 2: It's just you know, it's.
• 12:40
  Speaker 1: Just I don't think we need to go do that.
• 12:45
  Speaker 1: But yeah, yeah, you can still do the same things.
• 12:48
  Speaker 1: All right, let's get into the last question and uh,
• 12:51
  Speaker 1: you know, uh, and you know, I know a lot
• 12:53
  Speaker 1: of people that do suffer from this, and as I
• 12:55
  Speaker 1: have a friend of mine is suffering from insomnia, anxiety
• 12:58
  Speaker 1: and depression. Do you have any ses that could help her?
• 13:02
  Speaker 1: You know? And there's actually a lot of things that
• 13:05
  Speaker 1: correlate to cure that in just in just training, you
• 13:11
  Speaker 1: know what I'm saying.
• 13:11
  Speaker 2: Oh yeah, there's a lot of things that are in training,
• 13:14
  Speaker 2: a lot of things. Anxiety comes in a lot of ways,
• 13:18
  Speaker 2: and there's no one way to fix everything in every
• 13:24
  Speaker 2: part of it. Because what would cause me anxiety wouldn't
• 13:28
  Speaker 2: cause you anxiety or caused somebody else anxiety. Things that
• 13:32
  Speaker 2: helped me. When I start getting a whole bunch of
• 13:35
  Speaker 2: things to do and I feel like I'm overwhelmed, I
• 13:37
  Speaker 2: just write them all down, you know. And that because
• 13:41
  Speaker 2: if I can write them down, I can shut my
• 13:42
  Speaker 2: brain off when I go to sleep. If I can
• 13:44
  Speaker 2: shut my brain off when I go to sleep, I
• 13:46
  Speaker 2: can start doing them, you know, a light preparative meditation
• 13:51
  Speaker 2: before I go to sleep, get my mindset, and then
• 13:53
  Speaker 2: shut it off and I can go to bed. If
• 13:55
  Speaker 2: I don't write it down, then I'll sit there and
• 13:57
  Speaker 2: dwell on it and think of it. Oh, I'm going
• 13:58
  Speaker 2: to forget. To write it down. It allows me to
• 14:00
  Speaker 2: put it to rest and let myself know that it's
• 14:06
  Speaker 2: going to be okay. Because once I feel it's okay,
• 14:10
  Speaker 2: I'll stop worrying about it. There's been multiple times where
• 14:14
  Speaker 2: I've like things that have happened that are beyond my
• 14:18
  Speaker 2: control at work or stuff like that, and you know,
• 14:21
  Speaker 2: you're worried about are you going to keep your job
• 14:23
  Speaker 2: or is this going to go on? Or is that
• 14:25
  Speaker 2: going to go on? And people suffer from anxiety. Everybody does. Yeah,
• 14:30
  Speaker 2: but you stay the course, you do the things you're
• 14:34
  Speaker 2: supposed to do. I write all the things down, I
• 14:36
  Speaker 2: defend myself the best I can. Then I just got
• 14:38
  Speaker 2: to go look at the end of the day, I'm
• 14:42
  Speaker 2: still going to be me. At the end of the day,
• 14:44
  Speaker 2: life's going to go on. At the end of the day,
• 14:46
  Speaker 2: everything's going to be just fine. It might be different,
• 14:49
  Speaker 2: but it's going to be just fine. So do the
• 14:52
  Speaker 2: best you can to take care of the thing that's
• 14:54
  Speaker 2: giving you the anxiety. Write it down for notes and
• 14:58
  Speaker 2: things to work on later or the next day, and
• 15:01
  Speaker 2: then just relax and calm yourself. Breathe deep, relax, you know,
• 15:08
  Speaker 2: move in. You know. It sets your state of mind
• 15:12
  Speaker 2: to where you don't have to have the anxiety over
• 15:15
  Speaker 2: the things anymore. And if it persists farther than that,
• 15:18
  Speaker 2: then you know, then then there's people that legitimately do
• 15:22
  Speaker 2: need to go talk to somebody and get help. Do that.
• 15:27
  Speaker 2: Do that. If you can't follow basic things to calm
• 15:29
  Speaker 2: down and like write it down and put it to
• 15:31
  Speaker 2: beds that you can like let it go and then
• 15:35
  Speaker 2: then then go get some help. There's been times where
• 15:40
  Speaker 2: I'll have anxiety, but it's like a day or two
• 15:42
  Speaker 2: and it's usually like the first couple of times I
• 15:44
  Speaker 2: was doing World Strongest Man, I'd be sitting there just
• 15:46
  Speaker 2: wired for sound at night, going house is gonna go tomorrow?
• 15:50
  Speaker 2: The television camera's gonna be there. Am I gonna make
• 15:52
  Speaker 2: a fool of myself on TV? Or you know? Am
• 15:55
  Speaker 2: I gonna do good? Am I gonna do bad? And
• 15:58
  Speaker 2: then eventually you just go, well, I worked really hard,
• 16:00
  Speaker 2: I trained really hard, but I'm just gonna go out
• 16:03
  Speaker 2: and do each event to the best of my ability.
• 16:05
  Speaker 2: I'm prepared. I'm just gonna go have fun. And that
• 16:10
  Speaker 2: was kind of one of the things that really started
• 16:13
  Speaker 2: kind of getting in the anxiety the night before I
• 16:16
  Speaker 2: go to go to bed and go to sleep and
• 16:19
  Speaker 2: get ready for the contest. That kind of started really
• 16:23
  Speaker 2: putting that to the side to where I'm like, yeah,
• 16:25
  Speaker 2: I put all the work in, I'm ready to go.
• 16:27
  Speaker 2: I can't control any of the stuff that's gonna go
• 16:29
  Speaker 2: on tomorrows. I gonna do is the best I can
• 16:30
  Speaker 2: with the first event, Take each one at a time,
• 16:33
  Speaker 2: and then it's gonna fall where it's gonna fall. And
• 16:38
  Speaker 2: that really helped me a lot to get over that,
• 16:41
  Speaker 2: and it did to this day. I still do that
• 16:44
  Speaker 2: and the only time I get a little bit anxiety
• 16:46
  Speaker 2: is when I'm not prepared, Like, okay, well I'm not prepared,
• 16:50
  Speaker 2: but you know what, got to go through it anyway.
• 16:52
  Speaker 2: And again, I can't change what's gonna happen. I'm just
• 16:55
  Speaker 2: gonna go make the best of everything that I did
• 16:58
  Speaker 2: and move move forwards from there. And that's kind of
• 17:03
  Speaker 2: how you got to take it. I mean, that's how
• 17:05
  Speaker 2: I take it. I mean, you can take it, you
• 17:07
  Speaker 2: know how you want to. But the desire to drive,
• 17:10
  Speaker 2: to win and all that stuff, it's still there. It
• 17:13
  Speaker 2: doesn't go anywhere. But the art of preparation, the art
• 17:17
  Speaker 2: of organizing, getting things straight and ready to go, it'll
• 17:21
  Speaker 2: help you.
• 17:23
  Speaker 1: Yeah, it definitely will, you know what I'm saying. And
• 17:25
  Speaker 1: that's that sound advice right there, you know what I'm saying.
• 17:27
  Speaker 1: So hopefully that you know, they understand that, you know,
• 17:30
  Speaker 1: take this to heart, understand, you know, and also to
• 17:33
  Speaker 1: if you feel you need help, get the help.
• 17:35
  Speaker 2: That's what I Yeah, yeah, one hundred percent, And just
• 17:39
  Speaker 2: understand it's it's not all going to come crashing down. Things.
• 17:45
  Speaker 2: Things might change, you might have to do something, and
• 17:48
  Speaker 2: you know, but an anxiety change causes anxiety when you
• 17:53
  Speaker 2: find your new normal and stuff like that. Going through
• 17:56
  Speaker 2: divorces cause anxiety, Buying new houses cause anxiety. All these things,
• 18:00
  Speaker 2: all these things cause anxiety. But and family problems and
• 18:07
  Speaker 2: all kinds of issues. But at the end of the day,
• 18:12
  Speaker 2: do the best you can to control the controllables and
• 18:15
  Speaker 2: the things you can control, you know, just do the
• 18:19
  Speaker 2: best you can with them, meddle through them, find you
• 18:23
  Speaker 2: your new normal, and work forwards from there. It's going
• 18:25
  Speaker 2: to be okay. And as long as you can put
• 18:28
  Speaker 2: your mind to sleep, put your mind to rest. Once
• 18:31
  Speaker 2: you can put your mind arrest, you'll be able to
• 18:32
  Speaker 2: go to sleep.
• 18:34

• 18:58
  Speaker 1: Yes right now, because it is a movie. It is
• 19:05
  Speaker 1: a Christmas movie. It takes place around Christmas time. It's
• 19:08
  Speaker 1: a Christmas party, you know.
• 19:11
  Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, but that you know, Christmas vacation, and stuff
• 19:19
  Speaker 2: like that, and oh, yeah.
• 19:21
  Speaker 1: I just watched Ernest Scared, Ernest Saves Christmas yesterday.
• 19:25
  Speaker 2: Oh that's funny. Yeah, that's funny. But it's a good
• 19:29
  Speaker 2: time of the year. I mean, no matter where you
• 19:32
  Speaker 2: are in the world, it's always good to spend time
• 19:33
  Speaker 2: with your family. No matter what religion you are, it's
• 19:36
  Speaker 2: always good to spend time with your family. The nice
• 19:39
  Speaker 2: thing is is in the US, this is a time
• 19:42
  Speaker 2: where you know, for the next two weeks, a lot
• 19:46
  Speaker 2: of people have a lot of time off. All the
• 19:47
  Speaker 2: kids are off from school for the next two weeks,
• 19:51
  Speaker 2: and it's a great time to spend time with your kids,
• 19:53
  Speaker 2: with your family, your friends. And if you miss a
• 19:55
  Speaker 2: little training or eat a little too much, stuff happens.
• 20:00
  Speaker 2: It's okay, it's not going to come to an end.
• 20:03
  Speaker 2: But when you get back when the holidays are over,
• 20:06
  Speaker 2: you get back to your normal. You get back to
• 20:09
  Speaker 2: your normal training, you get back to your your work,
• 20:12
  Speaker 2: you get back to eating correctly, you get back to
• 20:14
  Speaker 2: all those things. And as long as you do that,
• 20:17
  Speaker 2: you're gonna get right back right back where you were,
• 20:19
  Speaker 2: right back in shape, your body ACKs what you like.
• 20:21
  Speaker 2: A little bit of the rest anyway, and then you
• 20:24
  Speaker 2: can get your your food back to normal, all that
• 20:26
  Speaker 2: other stuff gets back to normal, and it's okay. You
• 20:29
  Speaker 2: don't have to if you can train, train, if you
• 20:34
  Speaker 2: can eat decent, eat decent. But if you're around a
• 20:39
  Speaker 2: family situation, the time with them, you can never get back.
• 20:41
  Speaker 2: Just spend the time with your family. You can go
• 20:43
  Speaker 2: train pretty much anytime you want, before work, after work,
• 20:49
  Speaker 2: you know, days off, whenever. There's there's times where you
• 20:53
  Speaker 2: can still get to the gym and stuff like that.
• 20:55
  Speaker 1: But time is one, and get time from your family, know.
• 21:00
  Speaker 2: So spend the time with the family. If you can
• 21:02
  Speaker 2: still train and not take that away from them, train
• 21:06
  Speaker 2: and if you can't, it's okay. Just get back to
• 21:09
  Speaker 2: work as soon as the holidays are over. That's all.
• 21:13
  Speaker 2: Like I said. If you can also be smart and
• 21:17
  Speaker 2: have your training leading into this, be you know a
• 21:20
  Speaker 2: rest week or rest two weeks, you know, and and
• 21:24
  Speaker 2: get some rest, get active, rest, go out and go
• 21:26
  Speaker 2: sledding with the kids. If you're in a snowy area,
• 21:29
  Speaker 2: go go out rock climbing and just go out walking,
• 21:33
  Speaker 2: you know, go out and do things with everybody. Go
• 21:36
  Speaker 2: go you know, like Las Vegas, the Rodeo is here,
• 21:39
  Speaker 2: you know, a couple of weeks before Christmas. People go
• 21:41
  Speaker 2: to that. Then they go out and look at the
• 21:44
  Speaker 2: Christmas trees. There's a couple of.
• 21:47
  Speaker 1: Different all they do a whole negroative thing inside that.
• 21:52
  Speaker 1: The Venetian not the Venetian Caesars pals, right, Blagio the
• 21:58
  Speaker 1: Blagio there, you always get them all.
• 22:02
  Speaker 2: Yeah, and then the baseball park has like a Christmas
• 22:05
  Speaker 2: thing with you know, a snow a snow slide for
• 22:10
  Speaker 2: the kids and ice skating and stuff like that. Go
• 22:13
  Speaker 2: do that stuff, go down slide slides with the kids,
• 22:17
  Speaker 2: and uh go do some of the ice skating and
• 22:20
  Speaker 2: stuff like that. Just careful but half fun, you know,
• 22:24
  Speaker 2: half fun and staying in shape and doing things. And
• 22:26
  Speaker 2: you can't go out have fun.
• 22:27
  Speaker 1: As well, especially if you can't cut loose. You know
• 22:30
  Speaker 1: what I'm saying, because you know, one of my favorite things,
• 22:33
  Speaker 1: like I said, during Christmas, it's it's not the idea
• 22:36
  Speaker 1: of Christmas, it's the idea that my family and everyone,
• 22:39
  Speaker 1: every one in my extended family takes the time to
• 22:42
  Speaker 1: actually spend it with us, you know what I'm saying.
• 22:44
  Speaker 1: That's when I get Thanksgiving, Christmas, those are the kind
• 22:47
  Speaker 1: of holidays where we can all really just you know,
• 22:51
  Speaker 1: from all ends of the United States get together and
• 22:54
  Speaker 1: just you know, enjoy and that that's that's my favorite
• 22:57
  Speaker 1: part too. You know what I'm saying that that's what
• 23:00
  Speaker 1: I enjoy.
• 23:01
  Speaker 2: Enjoy your family, enjoy the love, enjoyment. There's certain members
• 23:06
  Speaker 2: of your family can't get along with, well, you're just
• 23:08
  Speaker 2: about like everybody else. Yeah, just do the best you
• 23:11
  Speaker 2: can and be the bigger person and you know, try
• 23:16
  Speaker 2: to try to help them and help yourself.
• 23:18
  Speaker 1: Enjoy the holiday exactly exactly, you know it. You know,
• 23:24
  Speaker 1: I'm gonna mention a Christmas stack that I usually wait
• 23:27
  Speaker 1: because it's it's it's just seasonal, but little debbies come
• 23:30
  Speaker 1: out with those white Christmas trees and I do look
• 23:33
  Speaker 1: forward to when they come. They're not the greatest, they're
• 23:35
  Speaker 1: not the most delicious, but you know what I'm saying,
• 23:38
  Speaker 1: I think they taste pretty good.
• 23:40
  Speaker 2: Yeah. Oh, there's a bunch of stuff that comes out.
• 23:42
  Speaker 2: There's like a lot of peppermint peppermint bark that's delicious
• 23:47
  Speaker 2: during the holiday. Stuff like that. I'll eat some of
• 23:49
  Speaker 2: that as soon as that's over. That goes right, Since
• 23:54
  Speaker 2: that goes over, it's out and right back to eating right.
• 23:57
  Speaker 1: So exactly exactly.
• 24:01
  Speaker 2: But yeah, and then you get to sit around watch
• 24:05
  Speaker 2: movies together, do things together, stuff like that. I just
• 24:08
  Speaker 2: saw The running Man The running Man, which it's pretty neat.
• 24:12
  Speaker 2: They pick homage to the the old one in the
• 24:16
  Speaker 2: movie in a bunch of different places and if you pay.
• 24:18
  Speaker 1: Attention, good, I haven't seen it. I definitely want. That
• 24:21
  Speaker 1: makes me happy.
• 24:22
  Speaker 2: Yeah, Like this takes place across the whole country instead
• 24:27
  Speaker 2: of a studio. Okay, so the one where Arnold Schwarzenhinger
• 24:31
  Speaker 2: did it, he was in a studio and different different
• 24:33
  Speaker 2: zones of that studio. This one, they're just going all
• 24:37
  Speaker 2: over the place and then the people see them and
• 24:39
  Speaker 2: they'll report them. Okay, So and then there's some other
• 24:43
  Speaker 2: ways they surveillance, do surveillance and stuff like that track
• 24:46
  Speaker 2: people down. But it's the same type of thing where
• 24:51
  Speaker 2: it's kind of fixed and nobody kind of wins that
• 24:53
  Speaker 2: type of thing. Yeah, but it's it's really good. I mean,
• 24:57
  Speaker 2: they they really actually did a good job. This is
• 25:01
  Speaker 2: the first time I've seen him like really remake maybe
• 25:05
  Speaker 2: the second time take an old movie that's a classic
• 25:09
  Speaker 2: and actually remake it. In a way that was actually
• 25:14
  Speaker 2: really good. It's not like they tried to make it
• 25:15
  Speaker 2: in a new modern way. They just took the same
• 25:19
  Speaker 2: philosophy of the actual show and stuck to that philosophy,
• 25:25
  Speaker 2: just increased it from instead of being in the studio
• 25:27
  Speaker 2: to being all across the United States, you know. And yeah,
• 25:31
  Speaker 2: so it's still got points for uh, you know, if
• 25:36
  Speaker 2: if he managed to like accidentally kill one of the Hunters,
• 25:39
  Speaker 2: he still got pots for it stuff like that. They
• 25:42
  Speaker 2: didn't have people choose which hunter they wanted to go
• 25:45
  Speaker 2: after him like they did.
• 25:48
  Speaker 1: In the original world.
• 25:48
  Speaker 2: Yeah, but people who report, but they people would win
• 25:53
  Speaker 2: prizes in the studio stuff like that. After you know,
• 25:55
  Speaker 2: Hunter was doing well successful, Yeah, successful, But the people
• 26:01
  Speaker 2: when they see him out and they like send a
• 26:04
  Speaker 2: picture with their phone or whatever where they're at and
• 26:06
  Speaker 2: send it in, they get money for that. So okay,
• 26:10
  Speaker 2: so when they report, they get like prize money for reporting. Cool.
• 26:14
  Speaker 2: So it's kind of done a little bit differently, but
• 26:16
  Speaker 2: it's still done pretty it done. It was done really
• 26:19
  Speaker 2: really well. I was like a four point five, So it's.
• 26:24
  Speaker 1: Oh, there we go. That's a high score there. Definitely,
• 26:27
  Speaker 1: that's definitely gonna be go. Hopefully it's on Amazon Prime
• 26:29
  Speaker 1: so I can buy it, rent it it is, and
• 26:33
  Speaker 1: then I'm definitely gonna.
• 26:35
  Speaker 2: It's way better than Tron was. Okay, if you watch
• 26:39
  Speaker 2: it by a single movie, Yeah, this this if you
• 26:42
  Speaker 2: knew the old story, you're still gonna like it because
• 26:45
  Speaker 2: there's some stuff in there, like because electro is a
• 26:48
  Speaker 2: big thing.
• 26:48
  Speaker 1: An electric Yeah, you know I'm saying saw.
• 26:51
  Speaker 2: You know, there's some stuff a bus saw. There's some
• 26:55
  Speaker 2: flamethrower stuff, but there's no buzzsaw. Okay, but there's some stuff.
• 27:00
  Speaker 2: No characters, you know what I'm saying. But they were
• 27:03
  Speaker 2: the characters, but they played homage to him. Yeah, so
• 27:08
  Speaker 2: there's some there's one of the contestants got these got
• 27:12
  Speaker 2: away from the hunters and two boys got the contestant
• 27:17
  Speaker 2: with flank thars. Oh okay, there's hot. They pay homage
• 27:22
  Speaker 2: to the old movie.
• 27:23
  Speaker 1: Yeah, okay, okay, I'm definitely gonna have to make sure
• 27:26
  Speaker 1: that this is gonna be on my watch this weekend.
• 27:28
  Speaker 2: There's the thing in the in the previews when you
• 27:31
  Speaker 2: watch the previews and the guy pulls out a squirt
• 27:33
  Speaker 2: gun and starts squirting the guys as they're coming through
• 27:35
  Speaker 2: the door and you see them all kind of get electrocuted. Yeah,
• 27:39
  Speaker 2: that's I think too electro. So they they paid homage
• 27:43
  Speaker 2: to the old movies and then you know, just like
• 27:47
  Speaker 2: Jesse Venturro was their old old champion returning to Yeah,
• 27:51
  Speaker 2: go back to hunting, and there's some of that in there.
• 27:54
  Speaker 2: You'll see it. It's in there. It's hidden, but it's
• 27:58
  Speaker 2: in there, so it's it's in there. They did stick
• 28:01
  Speaker 2: to it. The eggs, Yeah, there's a lot of Easterns.
• 28:06
  Speaker 2: The best way to put it. There's a lot of
• 28:07
  Speaker 2: Easter eggs there. You go.
• 28:08
  Speaker 1: Well, like I said, it was a fun fact. Stephen
• 28:11
  Speaker 1: King wrote this movie.
• 28:13
  Speaker 2: It was original.
• 28:14
  Speaker 1: Yeah, so well it sounds pretty good, especially with a
• 28:20
  Speaker 1: four point five.
• 28:22
  Speaker 2: Yeah yeah, maybe not quite for the family.
• 28:26
  Speaker 1: Oh yeah, you know, all my kids are above age, so.
• 28:31
  Speaker 2: Yeah, if all your kids are grown, you'll probably probably.
• 28:34
  Speaker 1: Probably probably watch.
• 28:36
  Speaker 2: My daughter is like, I don't know if I don't
• 28:38
  Speaker 2: want to watch it, and I'm just like, just give
• 28:41
  Speaker 2: it a chance, and she's like exactly, and she wanted
• 28:44
  Speaker 2: to watch. God, there was another new one that just
• 28:46
  Speaker 2: came out. I can't remember the life then what the
• 28:49
  Speaker 2: movie was, and I'm like, no, try this one. I
• 28:51
  Speaker 2: think you're gonna like it. And then we put it
• 28:53
  Speaker 2: on because I've already seen it once. Yeah, and then
• 28:56
  Speaker 2: she got about ten minutes into she's like, Dad, this
• 28:58
  Speaker 2: is good. I'm like, are you sure you won't won't
• 29:01
  Speaker 2: be changing? No? No, no, no, no, let's keep Okay, it's
• 29:06
  Speaker 2: way better than I thought of was. This is actually
• 29:07
  Speaker 2: a really good movie. I'm like, thanks, Honmy, So that's
• 29:10
  Speaker 2: pretty cool. So yeah, it's good stuff.
• 29:13
  Speaker 1: Well, I think we've covered quite a bit into today's show.
• 29:17
  Speaker 1: You know, say we answer the questions you knowledge or
• 29:20
  Speaker 1: our new members, you talked to movies, you know what
• 29:22
  Speaker 1: I'm saying. Let's leave everybody here with just a little
• 29:27
  Speaker 1: bit of Christmas advice as we and we'll exit out
• 29:31
  Speaker 1: because you know, like, we don't want to hold people
• 29:33
  Speaker 1: up for too long today because we know we're right
• 29:35
  Speaker 1: on that edge.
• 29:37
  Speaker 2: Oh yeah. So basically, whenever you go to family gatherings
• 29:41
  Speaker 2: and stuff like that, whether no matter what religion you are,
• 29:45
  Speaker 2: when you go to family gatherings, you do things. You're
• 29:47
  Speaker 2: going to eat a little bit outside of your normal.
• 29:50
  Speaker 2: That's okay, just don't keep eating outside your normal. Enjoy
• 29:53
  Speaker 2: the day, Enjoy the day with your family. One day
• 29:56
  Speaker 2: of rough eating or bad eating or whatever you want
• 29:59
  Speaker 2: to call it isn't the end of the world. But
• 30:02
  Speaker 2: get back on track to what you're doing, get back
• 30:05
  Speaker 2: on track to your regular diet, get back on track
• 30:07
  Speaker 2: to your regular sleep, get back on track to your
• 30:09
  Speaker 2: regular exercise when it's over. Have the discipline to do
• 30:15
  Speaker 2: that when it's all over. And if you can eat
• 30:17
  Speaker 2: clean while you're doing this, eat clean. If you can,
• 30:21
  Speaker 2: you know, get training in while you're doing that and
• 30:24
  Speaker 2: seeing your family do that. It's just if you can't,
• 30:27
  Speaker 2: it's not the end of the world. But if you
• 30:29
  Speaker 2: can cool you can't, it's the best possible outcome. So anyway, Ben,
