- 0:00everybody it is March 11th, 2025 good day we're gonna talk about three things first off of course Santa Clarita real estate I'm gonna give you those numbers a couple interesting things in that market dynamics and we're gonna move into the fat loss well let's talk about those fat loss drugs and muscle preservation there's some new stuff out there on that particular front and then finally my third favorite thing is going to be artificial intelligence talking about that energy component versus intelligence how is that different now than it ever has been and why is that something that we all need to pay attention to let's start with the real estate numbers here in Santa Clarita Valley running the numbers since last year comparison up to March of this year we have a 3% increase over last year's prices so it does show the resilience of the Santa Clarita real estate market and we're watching as property is not getting less expensive but more and that indicates a higher buyer drive yet a couple different things we have 25 coming soon properties that is up from just last week when we're in the high teens and early 20s as far as coming soon that's the last seven days that's the properties that have entered 71 new listings not super exciting on that front 75 properties about their prices changed that's a big deal and majority of those prices are reductions you might ask well why would a seller actually increase their price in some cases their mistakes made so an agent may have in entered the listing into the multiple listing service service at a certain level relative or friend and said you know what I don't want that price I want a different price talking to their age of the agency sure and they go and change it but you should understand that when you have a price increase the very beginning it could be an advantage or could be a detriment or it could be nothing it depends on how it's explained to the people that might be searching right so we have that then here's something else that's interesting 14 properties expired 15 properties canceled Astro that gives us 29 properties that have been removed or extracted from the market so me being who I am thought I would look a little bit deeper and find out what's happening on that front it would appear that it's not all regarding price some of these properties they weren't advertised properly they didn't have all of the correct components to be advertised property properly I should say so with what they had the pictures that were taken with cell phones and these sorts of things that's fine but really that professional photography that virtual staging that Matterport 3D hot shoe walk through virtual tour all that stuff's a big deal and that should be something that agents are using when they're listing your home so those properties would have a better chance to sell if the agents would have done their due diligence I'm Connor with honor let's go on to the next focus here I'm Connor with honor let's go on to the next focus here so as far as fat loss drugs go you'll know them there's a lot that are being advertised or FDA approved they do start messing with the insulin and the way your body absorbs food that it's eating the thing is is they do a job curbing hunger from everything that I've read the studies I've seen and friends and clients that I've talked to that have been taking them and they shut off a lot of body weight what they don't seem to talk about is how much of that weight is fat tissue that you need it happens to be muscle so that being the case now the big talk is how to eat correctly they have these food companies coming up they have these different apps coming up talking about how to preserve your muscle when you're trying to torch off body fat when taking these weight loss type drugs GLP-1 Agonist(whew) now this is the thing that I would suggest Agonist?
- 3:58LOL - fixed it - Agonist GLP1 type drugs if you are going to embark in this you'll understand that they're going to curb your appetite dramatically it's gonna make it so you're not hungry fasting also does that but it takes a little bit more willpower to get involved in that type of weight loss and I did that very well I still fast two or three days a week I will eat nothing but again that's just kind of what I've become accustomed to and as far as muscle in order to keep muscle and build muscle you have to work the muscle out so you're gonna have to lift heavy things put them down and repeat the process lift heavy things put them down repeat the process that's how you build muscle so if you are eating in a restricted way you're not eating any food you can at least preserve it by working the muscle out how much you may ask that might be the next question my suggestion is just do 5 to 6 sets per muscle group per week to maintain so I'll give an example let's talk about the bicep muscle it's not a huge muscle but it is something that could be worked out and should be worked out you can do curls six sets of maybe 10 to 15 curls and you want them hard so maybe that last one's difficult for each set and do six sets that's it per week for that muscle group chest you can lay on the floor get a couple bottles of water maybe a couple books and push them up and that would be your chest or even push up exercises might also do the same thing and that you might wanna do again like about six sets per week so you would lay down and you would do if you push UPS in a row that's fantastic so you do that you rest the 30 to 45 seconds and do it again and so on then you got your chest as far as legs go you can do squats maybe you can hold on to something as you squat down to the floor and back up and depending on your knee mobility and any of those injuries and those types of issues you know just be careful probably going to be uncomfortable at first especially if you haven't moved for a long time but if you're looking to torch off body weight you're gonna use any method you should still work out your muscles every single week not just when you're taking these GLP1 type drugs but anything if you're gonna caloric restrict you should do it if you're gonna not eat for a while you should do it fasting and muscle is kept at a a minimum when you're not eating for a particular period of time the growth hormone that your body naturally produces when you have a total absence of food and that's been proven through scientific study and that's a good thing that's what's gonna keep the muscle now when you restrict calories you should do your own research that's kind of a different process because when you start to restrict calories then your body could reduce the metabolism and in a lot of cases it does and then the muscle loss is also higher in that regard because your body isn't secreting extra growth hormone to try to deal with a starvation issue that would be created by you not eating and what should you eat we'll get into that right now it should be meat it should be fish it should be eggs and vegetables those are the things you should be eating fruit yeah fruits dessert fruits tret so be wary with that but the rest of that stuff's really good and if it has a single ingredient even better so if you're eating a hamburger that you got from a fast food store in that beef might not just be hamburger meat they might use fillers and other things so buy the food that you know has one ingredient you're good beef chicken fish those sorts of things eggs fantastic vegetables perfect watch your seasonings watch your condiments and enjoy your life it'll work finally let's talk about artificial intelligence have you been watching have you been paying attention artificial intelligence is something that's been talked about and it's being downplayed in several circles people are saying that it's not people are saying that it's not you know going to be life alter her or change her and I will tell you yes it will be if you look back the Industrial Revolution and this is a big difference between we're talking about something different than this but you look back at the agricultural revolution you look back at the industrial revolution so you had a bunch of fellas out there with shovels and picks and then the industrial revolution they made machines they were able to do much better than a single human being or even a whole bunch of human beings by using a bulldozer a back hole in digging ditches and these sorts of things so of course that wasn't the limit of the expansion during the Industrial Revolution I get it but you know with that that's that that was seen and it went those people then had to start maybe selling certain things or working and building the factories to be able to support the maintenance and the building of these machines so there was job loss for the lower end type labor in those days but those people probably became trained if they were able to get out of it and then go and do something else we see that similarity today but here's the difference today is an explosion in intelligence today our intelligence levels are about as smart as most human beings and since we have the advent of the internet we've been able to share information pretty easily between human to human to human subjective experiences are gonna be different so let's say I've been shot at in the past and had to shoot back because I was a police officer but realistically you not having lived it like I lived it it's a different kind of absorption you can listen to it and understand it but you're not truly experiencing it you tell me you know I crashed in and you know my neck and my back and I can appreciate what you're telling me but ultimately I haven't crashed I wasn't in the same crash so I can listen to the story but I can't really absorb it through all the feelings you will in the computational data so when you have a self driving car one car experiences a novelty or some kind of an error now all the other cars know how to adjust for that you put bots out there that are military purposes and you have a group of human beings that were able to get one over on the robot and kill one of them well all that data just went to all the other ones that game will never be played again the robot will never fall prey to that same error on their end having not understood it the intelligence explosion ladies and gentlemen is something a lot different than any kind of other life altering societal altering commune altering event that occurred in the past because with intelligence we solve all of the problems so right now we might have a regular rock and we might not realize that in just a regular rock that you would see laying on the street or in your backyard or on the trail how much potential energy is in it maybe there's so much energy much more in than there would be in the more precious type of metals maybe that's the case maybe there's more energy in this rock than fossil fuels to give an example that's what artificial intelligence or the new intelligence is going to create right now it's pretty smart and it's getting smarter right now at the very beginning and with a regular computer we had to teach it how to add numbers together and then it was able to do with big numbers now the machine teaches itself we teach at the rules or we give at the end goal and the machine comes up with a solution so having said that if you look at artificial intelligence the same way that you look at the past changes in societal structure you're in the advancements you're doing yourself a disturbance this is going to be a dystopian or a utopian type of event we just have to see what's going to happen here in the next several months it's not going to take long a few years ago when they had the first chat GPT model is at 2023 when it first came out they were like oh my God you know it's gonna be we get to the net well it's not gonna be yours folks we're coming up on this thing they are developing technology so fast they're not bothering to think whether we should or not but be careful out there understand the truth if you don't know that much about artificial intelligence dig in because it really is a scrumptious delight just be wary be kind to each other and always seek the truth and never forget the human element I'm Connor with honor we will see you in the next one thanks for watching maybe the seller talked to a neighbor but it would appear that quite a bit of it happens to also be just for the simple fact that your body does increase now whatever it may be I can tell you the story machines get to share that knowledge 100% all the way through
