0:42

0:44
Go ahead and get the show
0:45
started a little bit.
0:47
Talk about this past weekend,
0:49
how I prepared,
0:51
what I did to kind of be
0:52
successful while I was gone.
0:56
So I went up to Lansing, Michigan.
1:00
last Thursday afternoon to
1:03
be able to video and hang
1:05
out with Jamie Latimer and
1:09
her crew up there at
1:12
Redemption Fitness and kind
1:15
of document her
1:16
quarterfinals a little bit.
1:18
And just get to hang out
1:19
with my friend for the most part.
1:21
So I traveled up that day.
1:25
I actually bought some lunch meat,
1:28
bought some stuff to kind of take with me,
1:31
took some pre-made quesadillas,
1:34
took some fruit,
1:37
took healthier snacks with me.
1:40
And then we just kind of
1:41
stocked the fridge in the
1:44
hotel for the weekend.
1:45
Um, and mainly that was, um,
1:48
mostly for lunch and for snacks, uh,
1:51
being able to kind of do that,
1:53
which was super, super helpful.
1:56
Um, we got there, we did, uh,
2:03
we went out to eat with them on, oh,
2:08
and here she is.
2:11
We are live.
2:12
How you doing?
2:14
I'm good.
2:15
Sorry.
2:15
I was running a few minutes late.
2:16
One of my client calls, uh,
2:18
was running over a little bit.
2:20
So here I am.
2:23
So I just started, um,
2:24
talking about my trip to
2:26
Michigan on Thursday.
2:28
Um, and that we bought some lunch meat.
2:31
We bought some snacks.
2:32
We bought some fruit and vegetables, um,
2:34
to have in the fridge.
2:36
Um,
2:39
To kind of set us up for success.
2:43
Everything went well in that regard.
2:45
We did eat dinner out every night.
2:48
Yeah.
2:49
And the hotel had a
2:50
breakfast and I just ended
2:52
up eating like eggs and
2:54
bacon or sausage and had a
2:56
bagel usually every morning with coffee.
2:59
Okay.
2:59
I gotcha.
3:01
All right.
3:01
Well, first off,
3:02
did you have a good time this weekend?
3:03
I did.
3:04
I did.
3:05
I saw some karaoke stuff.
3:07
Somebody sent me, that was pretty cool.
3:09
So the hidden talent, I,
3:12
I thought was gone forever
3:13
before my sinus surgery.
3:15
Yeah.
3:16
And, uh, gave it a shot.
3:18
Yeah.
3:19
I, um,
3:20
I had kind of told you that I had
3:21
planned on you kind of like
3:22
having a little bit more of
3:23
a flexible weekend with, you know,
3:25
just being that you were
3:26
going to be out with
3:26
friends and all that kinds of stuff.
3:28
So I had kind of known that
3:29
you were going to be a little bit,
3:31
you know, out of,
3:31
out of your routine a
3:32
little bit with food.
3:33
So,
3:34
back at it again on Monday?
3:37
Yeah.
3:37
I mean,
3:38
I don't think I really went off of
3:39
it while I was there.
3:43
We talked about like,
3:44
when you go to a restaurant there,
3:45
there are options.
3:46
We went Mexican on, what was it?
3:50
Saturday night.
3:51
I had fajitas, no tortillas.
3:55
I just ate the chicken and
3:56
steak and peppers and
3:57
onions with some rice.
4:01
Had a little scoop of the refried beans,
4:04
but was able to do that.
4:07
We went to a burger place
4:09
the night before that.
4:11
That's probably the most it
4:12
went off the rails.
4:14
Yeah.
4:15
You had a beer for the first
4:16
time in I don't know how long.
4:17
I did.
4:19
That is my first alcoholic
4:20
beverage probably in 2024.
4:22
Is that why you were singing so much?
4:24
No.
4:25
Yeah, I'm just kidding.
4:26
No, I love singing.
4:28
Yeah, I'm just kidding.
4:29
Yeah.
4:30
Um, came back home.
4:31
Weight's pretty much the same, correct?
4:34
Uh, it's up a little bit,
4:35
but I always like, yeah,
4:38
my legs get a little
4:39
inflamed when I travel.
4:41
Yeah.
4:42
Overall,
4:43
your calorie intake looks like it
4:44
was pretty good.
4:45
Did you get any workouts in?
4:47
I did not.
4:48
Yeah.
4:49
Um,
4:49
I was at the gym and I was on my feet a
4:53
good portion of the day.
4:54
Yeah.
4:55
Probably
4:58
Probably 75% of the day.
5:00
Yeah.
5:02
And those were long workouts.
5:06
So when you're filming like
5:07
those 20 minute workouts
5:09
back to back to back and you're holding,
5:13
what,
5:13
what I did not anticipate is my
5:16
right arm was so sore from
5:18
holding the camera out.
5:22
and in my thumb and in my trigger finger,
5:26
like that all was, I'm just not,
5:29
I haven't done it since
5:30
legends like five months ago.
5:33
Yeah.
5:33
You've had past couple of weekends.
5:35
You've had a lot going on.
5:37
Yeah.
5:38
The stuff.
5:39
So, um, okay.
5:41
So overall,
5:42
I feel like you did a pretty good job.
5:44
You know, you,
5:44
you track things pretty well.
5:46
Um, you're kind of a, uh, so, um,
5:51
Something that I often do
5:53
with clients is I don't
5:57
just wait till check-in day, right?
5:58
Like I think that a lot of
5:59
people think that a
6:00
nutrition coach is going to
6:01
just check in with you on check-in day.
6:04
I often will check in,
6:06
like I have a client list.
6:08
I kind of like,
6:09
let me take a peek at things.
6:10
You tend to be somebody that
6:12
tracks after the facts sometimes, right?
6:15
And I've noticed that not always, but like,
6:17
I'm like, cause I looked in there,
6:18
I'm like,
6:18
there was nothing in there on
6:19
Saturday and Sunday.
6:19
And then there was something
6:21
in there on Saturday and Sunday.
6:21
So that's okay.
6:23
Do you like,
6:24
how do you keep track of
6:25
things when you're doing that?
6:26
Cause I know that some
6:27
people like they write it down.
6:29
Like,
6:29
how do you keep yourself accountable?
6:31
Cause I know that like, like,
6:33
and here's why I'm asking this.
6:34
Cause people out there that
6:35
are listening to this,
6:36
one of the biggest things I get are
6:39
I don't want to pull up my
6:40
phone when I'm at a
6:41
restaurant and try and track everything.
6:43
I feel rude.
6:44
So like,
6:45
how do you do it just to give
6:46
people some advice?
6:47
So Saturday and Sunday for me, I mean,
6:50
I was busy the entire time.
6:53
It was like, it was, um,
6:59
It was so busy.
7:00
I didn't really think about
7:03
tracking in the moment.
7:04
I'm trying to get better at
7:06
not post tracking.
7:09
I got you.
7:10
So like, since I've been back,
7:12
I've been very conscious
7:13
about doing it throughout the day.
7:15
Yeah.
7:17
But this weekend,
7:18
it just got away from me.
7:20
And I was estimating anyway
7:22
because I was restaurant-y.
7:24
I didn't have a scale.
7:25
And so I'm estimating anyway.
7:27
So I just estimated what I
7:30
ate by what I know to be about.
7:35
Right.
7:35
And that's mostly what I
7:36
wanted to get at for people
7:37
that might be listening is like,
7:39
It's not about perfection,
7:40
but it's about like, you know,
7:41
you're like, I'm doing the best I can.
7:42
That's why I was asking how you did it.
7:44
So for you, it was like, you were so busy,
7:46
you know,
7:46
you probably only ate three
7:47
times and you can remember those meals.
7:49
Some people don't even think
7:51
about that stuff.
7:51
And they're like,
7:52
I don't remember what I had.
7:53
Or I'd grab a snack at the
7:55
hotel at night and then I would remember,
7:58
okay,
7:58
these are the things I ate and I
7:59
would put all those in.
8:00
Yeah, that makes sense.
8:03
Lex, I just want to say thank you.
8:05
Big hug.
8:05
And hopefully I'll get to
8:07
meet you this year at the
8:09
semifinals because I know
8:11
Miss Carolyn is looking
8:13
pretty good in the standings,
8:15
but I appreciate it.
8:18
It's been a rough weekend.
8:18
Pretty good.
8:21
Yeah, looks pretty darn good.
8:22
Well,
8:22
I looked at the worldwide leaderboard.
8:24
I didn't even look at the Northeast.
8:26
Top 20 worldwide, right?
8:28
Yeah, she's
8:29
She's looking pretty good right now.
8:31
Um, but yeah, so I think that you did like,
8:34
honestly,
8:35
this weekend expectations were
8:37
life is also about making memories,
8:40
enjoying yourself a little bit.
8:41
You did what you committed to, you know,
8:43
you're like,
8:43
I'm going to stay on track with, you know,
8:45
tracking.
8:46
I'm going to try and prep as
8:48
much as I can.
8:49
Do you feel like that was
8:52
easier or stressful for you?
8:54
Did you have any stress
8:54
about packing or anything?
8:56
Um, it actually was easier.
8:57
Yeah.
8:58
Um, what made it really cool?
9:00
Like the side effect of it was, um,
9:02
my wife didn't always want
9:04
to go to the gym with me
9:06
and then she had food in
9:07
the hotel as well that she
9:10
could eat while I went to the hotel.
9:12
I went to the gym.
9:13
That's awesome.
9:14
That's awesome.
9:15
So it actually was a more of
9:17
a stress release.
9:18
Yeah.
9:20
Um,
9:20
did you go to the gym at all since
9:22
you've been back home?
9:23
didn't I didn't get back
9:24
till sunday evening um I
9:26
was wiped out yesterday um
9:29
I was hurting like I my
9:31
body was just really really
9:33
sore and I had a doctor's
9:35
appointment yesterday at
9:38
the afib clinic okay how'd
9:40
that go um it went really
9:43
well so one prescription is gone
9:48
I am no longer on blood thinners.
9:50
Awesome.
9:51
I just have to take like the
9:54
81 milligram aspirin a day.
9:56
Yep.
9:58
So, but the Eloquist,
10:00
which is actually the most
10:01
expensive prescription I'm on is gone.
10:03
Awesome.
10:04
Awesome.
10:05
So we're making improvements there.
10:07
How's your blood sugar been running?
10:10
It hit the lowest it had
10:12
ever been yesterday since it was 106.
10:15
Nice.
10:18
That's awesome.
10:19
So that's awesome.
10:20
And I asked him about like the heart pill
10:23
And he actually said,
10:24
I might be able to come off
10:26
that one as well,
10:27
but it does more than just a fib.
10:30
It also does blood pressure and pulse.
10:34
And both of those are beautiful right now.
10:36
And he's like,
10:38
we could take you off of that,
10:40
but it could be what's keeping you there.
10:42
I'd only do it if you have
10:43
like a really good blood
10:44
pressure cuff at home.
10:46
Yeah.
10:47
And the one we have doesn't fit me.
10:51
So I need to get one and
10:53
then I can come off of that as well.
10:56
As long as I'm tracking my
10:57
blood pressure for like the
10:58
three days after is what he wants.
11:00
Awesome.
11:01
Awesome.
11:02
Yeah.
11:03
Um, so that's all good stuff, Scott.
11:05
I feel like things are going
11:06
in the right direction.
11:06
When is your next
11:08
appointment with your primary care?
11:11
It is the physical it's in may,
11:13
like mid may.
11:14
Okay, cool.
11:15
So we have a couple of months.
11:17
All right.
11:17
Uh, Judy, again, thank you, Cheryl.
11:20
I say what?
11:21
It's almost May.
11:22
I know it's almost May.
11:24
We don't have a couple months.
11:26
Oh my God.
11:26
Is it already?
11:27
I'm going to be 39 this month.
11:29
It's crazy, but I'm sorry.
11:32
I'm also still like,
11:33
it's been a rough weekend, Judy.
11:35
Again, thank you for you as well.
11:37
I appreciate you guys.
11:40
It's just been,
11:41
it's been one of those days
11:42
that I've been,
11:43
whatever.
11:43
So, um, all right.
11:46
So let me get my thoughts together here.
11:48
Cause I'm so, so distracted.
11:50
I don't even know if you've
11:51
been looking at my story, Scott, but I,
11:52
I feel, and I, my,
11:54
my condolences as well.
11:55
Yeah.
11:55
It's just, uh, I just, um,
11:58
my mom called me a little while ago,
12:00
so it's just been a rough.
12:02
So I'm like trying to stay focused.
12:03
We're going to refocus,
12:05
recenter on Scott's journey right now.
12:07
Um,
12:09
So this week I feel like it's Tuesday.
12:12
So hitting the gym tomorrow.
12:14
Yep.
12:14
Okay, cool.
12:15
Um, anything coming up this weekend?
12:17
Are you home sailing?
12:18
No crazy projects?
12:21
Uh, well,
12:23
I'm going to work on my audio
12:25
some this weekend,
12:26
but nothing as stressful as
12:29
ripping it all off.
12:30
Yeah.
12:31
I did, uh, I did lawn care this weekend.
12:34
Remember we talked about this last week.
12:35
Yep.
12:36
I found,
12:37
so I was going to do the Sunday thing.
12:40
But my brother's like,
12:40
this is what you got to get.
12:42
So I tried.
12:42
I went to Home Depot and
12:43
picked up some stuff.
12:45
Oh, my God.
12:46
I should probably just pay
12:47
somebody to do my lawn.
12:48
It was a lot of work.
12:49
It was a lot of work.
12:51
But I got that done.
12:52
So I'm going to see if I can
12:54
get my grass to grow a little bit better.
12:55
I also...
12:57
I'm not supposed to.
12:59
But we have a sprinkler system,
13:00
like an irrigation system.
13:02
And my HOA is like,
13:03
don't mess with the irrigation.
13:05
We take care of it.
13:06
But I don't think that
13:07
they're watering my grass enough.
13:08
But I figured out how to
13:09
manually override it.
13:10
So I've been turning that on
13:12
every single day.
13:13
Getting my water.
13:14
Getting my grass going.
13:15
So different subject.
13:17
But yeah.
13:19
Bruce wants to know if
13:19
you're still going to Christy's gym.
13:22
I am.
13:23
I love it.
13:23
All right.
13:25
So this week, I feel like...
13:27
I'm going to take a look.
13:28
Obviously, with this weekend,
13:29
you were out of town.
13:30
I think that the main focus
13:32
this week should be consistency with,
13:34
like, obviously food quality.
13:36
Obviously, when you're out of town,
13:38
the priority is not, like,
13:39
getting in fruits and
13:40
vegetables and all that stuff.
13:41
You're doing the best you can.
13:42
Things so far are already looking good.
13:44
I mean,
13:44
I think that last night you did good.
13:47
Yesterday you did good.
13:48
Let me ask you this.
13:49
What are the skinny noodles?
13:51
Are those those konjac noodles,
13:53
the shirataki noodles?
13:56
They're just a low carb
13:57
noodle that I found at BJ's warehouse.
14:00
They look like those,
14:03
the macros on them look
14:05
like the shirataki or the
14:07
miracle noodles where
14:08
there's like zero carbs in them.
14:09
Yeah, it's really low.
14:11
Do they come in like a watery?
14:15
No, these are dry.
14:16
Oh,
14:18
because those noodles that I'm talking
14:20
about are disgusting.
14:24
They taste so bad.
14:26
That's why I was like, is he eating those?
14:28
Um, they're like, uh,
14:30
I forget what they're made out of,
14:31
like some kind of a konjac flour.
14:33
And I'm sure that some of
14:34
the listeners know what I'm
14:35
talking about.
14:35
They make like miracle
14:37
noodles or they're like zero color,
14:39
but they,
14:39
they come in this like water and
14:42
you drain them.
14:44
And yeah,
14:44
see Bruce knows what I'm talking about.
14:46
They smell funky and they taste worse.
14:50
So yeah, no, these are dry.
14:53
Yeah, well,
14:54
the macros on them are really
14:56
not bad at all.
14:58
Yeah, they're really low in carb.
15:01
And really,
15:01
when you put stuff on top of it,
15:04
you don't really taste the noodle anyway.
15:05
I have to look them up now
15:07
because I'm all about
15:08
different food products like this.
15:10
They are.
15:11
They've got to be those ones.
15:12
You like those?
15:14
I don't know if they are.
15:15
Yum Sue Skinny Noodles.
15:20
I think that they are.
15:21
I think that those are what they are.
15:22
I can't believe you like those.
15:24
I don't like them.
15:26
Have you tried the carbonata pasta?
15:31
You've mentioned it before.
15:32
I've never seen it.
15:34
That's pretty good.
15:35
I don't know what grocery
15:37
store you have nearby you.
15:38
I had to probably look to
15:39
see which one has it,
15:40
but they sell them on Amazon.
15:43
That's actually pretty good.
15:44
And they make different...
15:46
different ones.
15:46
And it's got a little bit more protein.
15:49
Um, you know, Shakia,
15:50
the girl that was with us at, uh,
15:52
semifinals,
15:52
she's the one that turned me onto that.
15:54
That's a pretty good one, but I don't,
15:55
I don't like the konjac
15:57
noodles like you had.
15:58
And that's what it looks like they are,
15:59
but I like the, um, Judy agrees with me.
16:03
The, the,
16:04
the carb nada pasta is pretty good.
16:06
Um, so, all right.
16:09
So this week we're going to
16:09
focus on getting, you know,
16:12
obviously back to your normal routine,
16:14
um,
16:15
I'm just going to pull up
16:15
your notes from last week
16:16
to remember if there was
16:17
anything else that I wanted to ensure.
16:19
Cause really it was just
16:20
getting you through the
16:22
semifinals or the sem,
16:23
the quarterfinals weekend.
16:30
The only thing I'd mentioned
16:31
was jumping into class.
16:31
If you have some time,
16:32
but enjoy the time with
16:33
your friends and your wife.
16:36
And I don't have every
16:37
intention of doing a couple
16:38
of the quarterfinal workouts.
16:41
I just, I just ran out of time.
16:42
It was so crazy.
16:45
Yeah.
16:45
Well,
16:46
why don't you just jump in with the
16:47
people doing them?
16:48
Cause I'm, I had the video too.
16:50
Oh yeah.
16:52
Was there a lot of heats?
16:54
Uh, they didn't really do he,
16:56
it wasn't anything formal like that.
16:58
Yeah.
17:00
It was just,
17:00
people were coming and going nonstop.
17:03
That's how it was at the gym
17:04
locally for us.
17:05
Poor Travis, my, uh,
17:06
the guy that runs the gym,
17:08
he's like coaching class
17:09
and he's like judging
17:10
somebody and like somebody else comes in,
17:12
he's judging them.
17:13
I'm like, Oh geez, it was definitely,
17:16
interesting weekend I don't
17:17
know I still don't know I
17:18
was talking to lex about
17:19
this the other day is I
17:21
don't know how I feel about
17:22
there being rope climbs in
17:23
the quarterfinals I mean I
17:25
love a rope climb but that
17:27
would have been so much
17:28
better off just keeping it
17:30
out I mean just watching
17:33
people like trying
17:34
measuring you know 15 feet
17:36
up in the air with the
17:36
ladder just was like so
17:38
unnecessary but you know
17:41
but whatever I think they
17:43
have to have something like that
17:45
You really think they did a
17:46
rope climb though?
17:47
They couldn't have done toes
17:48
to bar into chest to bar
17:50
into ring muscle-ups or
17:52
something like that?
17:53
They had to have the rope?
17:55
The window to get into semis is so small.
18:00
You have to have high skill
18:03
stuff to get the right people there.
18:06
But do you really think a
18:07
rope climb is that much
18:08
more higher skill than a pull-up?
18:12
I think what it did to the athletes,
18:14
it was necessary.
18:15
Yeah.
18:17
I think it was the handstand
18:18
push-ups more than the rope climbs,
18:20
personally.
18:23
See, what I watched,
18:24
the handstand push-ups
18:25
weren't even an issue.
18:26
They were an issue.
18:28
They fatigued the triceps so
18:30
much that the pulling and
18:33
those last muscle-ups got really hard.
18:36
The pressing and those last
18:38
muscle-ups got hard, not the pulling.
18:40
Yeah.
18:41
That's what I,
18:42
that's what I feel like happened.
18:43
I mean, yeah,
18:43
your grip was probably a
18:44
little shot from the rope
18:46
climbs for sure.
18:46
But I think that there was a
18:47
lot of fatigued pressing.
18:49
It wasn't the handstand pushups alone.
18:52
Weren't the problem.
18:53
They were the interference
18:55
to make those muscle ups
18:56
really freaking hard.
18:57
But that's my thoughts.
19:00
Yeah.
19:01
But I don't know.
19:02
Yeah.
19:03
Anyways.
19:05
So this week.
19:08
I know we mentioned photos
19:09
and I know we were talking
19:10
about being due for those.
19:12
We kind of waited a little
19:13
bit and I know you were out
19:14
of town this past weekend.
19:15
So,
19:17
cause I had put that on your schedule
19:18
on the 31st.
19:19
So let's do those again this week.
19:23
And since you're home and I feel like,
19:27
I don't know.
19:28
I just feel like you did
19:29
great this weekend.
19:29
I don't feel like I have anything.
19:30
I think that you honestly
19:32
are in a good spot.
19:35
Yeah.
19:35
I just wish,
19:37
I just wish that three and a
19:38
half hours in a car didn't
19:39
hurt me so much.
19:41
Well, that'll hurt anybody.
19:42
Yeah.
19:43
I just, I mean, I remember I, you know,
19:46
when I lived in Florida,
19:47
I'd drive to Pennsylvania,
19:48
16 and a half hours,
19:50
hop out and do whatever I wanted to do.
19:52
And now, man,
19:53
it just is not that way anymore.
19:56
I don't even like sitting in
19:56
my seat for three hours at home,
19:58
let alone being in a car for three hours,
20:02
you know?
20:02
So it's a,
20:04
a lot you know so are you
20:06
feeling like it's gonna
20:07
feel did you do any
20:08
mobility or anything yeah I
20:12
did some stuff at the hotel
20:13
like just walking and yeah
20:15
trying to stretch because a
20:18
different bed my back was
20:19
achy like it just all the
20:21
stuff of not being in the
20:22
comforts of your own home
20:23
Agreed.
20:24
It might not have just been the car too.
20:26
It could have been a little
20:27
bit of everything, like you said.
20:28
So, you know,
20:30
and this is kind of a little side track.
20:33
Um,
20:34
the people next to us in the hotel were
20:36
celebrating four 20, very, very much.
20:41
Oh man.
20:41
I forgot about that this weekend.
20:43
And it was, it's like,
20:46
I don't have a sense of smell anymore.
20:49
And I haven't had it for two years.
20:52
My wife is like, it's so bad.
20:54
And then I actually started
20:56
like choking a little bit.
20:58
And I think the frustrating thing is,
21:01
I know weed is legal in Michigan,
21:03
but it's still a non-smoking hotel.
21:07
Yeah, it's true.
21:09
And it was rough.
21:11
But is that considered...
21:13
smoking depending on how
21:15
they're uh oh they were
21:17
smoking it yeah I guess
21:20
they were like well listen
21:22
when you see like the no
21:23
smoking right it's always
21:24
like the cigarette you see
21:26
so they're not smoking it
21:27
in a cigarette format is it
21:29
still smoking it's still a
21:31
non-smoking hotel just
21:33
I'm just saying, but yeah, I agree.
21:36
I hate there's,
21:36
there's one of my neighbors
21:38
around here is always, and it's like,
21:40
I walk outside and I can
21:41
smell it instantly.
21:42
It's like, but whatever,
21:43
but I know it's one of my neighbors.
21:45
I don't know which one, but, but yeah.
21:48
So I feel like this is kind
21:52
of the plan right now for
21:53
us this week is your weight
21:55
is a little stagnant.
21:56
So
21:58
but I know that like,
21:59
obviously this past weekend
22:00
was not the goal.
22:01
The goal was what you did.
22:03
So let's kind of see how
22:04
this week plays out with
22:06
you being back in the gym, quote unquote,
22:10
getting the nutrition.
22:11
Cause you were pretty dialed
22:12
in this weekend,
22:13
kind of see where things look next week.
22:16
And if things are still
22:17
looking pretty much the same,
22:18
it might be time for an adjustment,
22:20
you know, because, you know,
22:21
you did pretty well.
22:23
Your protein intake is still
22:25
a little bit on the lower side.
22:26
That's really the one thing to focus on.
22:29
Yesterday was a slam dunk on everything.
22:32
So I think that you're back
22:33
into the groove of being back home.
22:36
So how do you feel about that this week?
22:39
Yep.
22:40
I think that's good.
22:41
Get back in the groove.
22:42
All right, cool.
22:43
I've actually put in your, do you,
22:45
did you turn your reminders on,
22:47
on your trainer eyes?
22:49
Yeah.
22:50
Does that annoy you?
22:52
so much.
22:53
Yeah.
22:53
So guys,
22:54
I put a reminder on for him just
22:56
because of what he was
22:57
talking about earlier about
22:58
not getting into the habit
22:59
of not tracking as he goes
23:01
is in the morning,
23:02
it sends him a reminder for
23:03
daily weight and then in
23:04
the evening for food log.
23:06
But I think sometimes it's
23:08
good to have that because
23:08
now when you wake up in the morning,
23:10
you're like, got to make sure I do that.
23:12
And then before you go to bed at night,
23:13
you're like, got to make sure I do that.
23:14
So it's almost like you have
23:15
to consciously either
23:17
Tweet it out or do the work,
23:19
which is kind of good.
23:20
So you've been,
23:21
and you've been doing pretty awesome,
23:22
Scott.
23:23
So, uh,
23:24
and I've been doing the work cause man is,
23:26
but it is annoying.
23:27
I hate notifiers.
23:29
Yeah.
23:30
I hate group messages.
23:31
So that's another one.
23:32
And I, I will, uh,
23:34
be seeing you soon in the
23:35
semifinals coming up here pretty soon,
23:37
which is going to be pretty exciting.
23:39
Well,
23:39
I've been really debating on whether
23:40
I'm going to semifinals.
23:42
Oh, really?
23:44
Um, cause I don't,
23:46
I still don't have sponsors
23:48
and I would have to pay for
23:49
it completely out of pocket.
23:51
Gotcha.
23:52
Gotcha.
23:52
Well, I'm going to, I'm going, um,
23:54
I have kind of like,
23:55
I'm going to kind of take,
23:56
that's my birthday week.
23:58
So take it a little mini vacay that week.
24:01
So,
24:02
but then talking to Rebecca Fusile this
24:04
morning after our show.
24:08
Um, I dunno, she almost made me cry, but,
24:12
um, so now that I,
24:15
I need to find some way to get there,
24:16
whether I just get a
24:17
sponsor for semis or
24:19
coverage of semis or something like that.
24:21
Yeah.
24:22
Yeah.
24:23
That'd be awesome.
24:24
So, um,
24:25
anything else in particular this
24:27
week that you feel like we
24:28
need to make sure that we touch base on?
24:32
Uh, no, I think I just.
24:36
Yeah,
24:37
just getting back into the groove of
24:39
everything.
24:39
And we say that,
24:41
but I've never been the best tracker.
24:44
Just getting into that habit
24:45
of tracking as I go through the day.
24:49
And I'm really trying to do that now.
24:52
Yeah, let's talk about this.
24:53
This is important too.
24:55
Why do we track, right?
24:57
So we know where you are and
24:58
we can hit the goal we're trying to hit.
25:01
Yeah,
25:01
but it's like if you're not tracking
25:04
as you go,
25:06
you're going to keep going
25:07
under on your protein.
25:08
You're going to keep, you know,
25:10
and being over on your fats or whatever.
25:12
And it's not so much about
25:13
being perfect on numbers.
25:14
It's okay.
25:15
I think you're building balanced meals,
25:17
but not getting in enough
25:19
protein is going to, in fact,
25:21
somebody on my podcast, they asked,
25:23
how do you make sure that
25:23
you're losing fat?
25:26
and not muscle.
25:27
If you're not getting in
25:28
enough protein and you're
25:29
not doing enough strength work,
25:31
you're going to be losing muscle.
25:32
And that's when people will
25:33
see changes in the scale,
25:35
but they won't physically
25:36
look any different.
25:37
They won't see the aesthetic changes.
25:39
So you want to do,
25:40
I do think I've been losing some muscle.
25:42
I do.
25:43
I do see some changes that I
25:45
need to stop and, and I really need,
25:48
that's why I'm trying to track.
25:49
Yeah.
25:51
You know what else might be
25:52
really good for you for that purpose is,
25:54
I know we talked about this
25:55
a long time ago.
25:57
Have you considered getting
25:58
a body scan done?
26:01
Does Chrissy have an in-body there?
26:04
It'd be interesting if we
26:06
could do a body composition scan on you.
26:08
Yeah, there's some around.
26:10
I just was trying to find
26:13
time to get there, but I will.
26:14
Yeah.
26:15
it's not like important right now,
26:16
but that might be something
26:17
else that you can track besides.
26:19
I personally,
26:20
I like tracking that more
26:23
than the weight for a lot
26:26
of people because it does
26:27
show you more so the bigger
26:29
picture of things.
26:33
So, um, yeah, but I can tell,
26:35
I can tell my chest is not
26:36
as big as it used to be.
26:37
Yeah.
26:39
Um, and my shoulders.
26:40
So
26:43
Time to start doing some
26:43
more curls for the girls.
26:44
Is that what you're saying?
26:47
I think I just need to get, again,
26:49
as we've talked about in
26:50
the last couple of weeks,
26:51
just more consistent at the
26:53
gym and get my protein up.
26:56
So I think that like the
26:57
cool thing is it's like, okay,
27:00
so we check in every week.
27:02
It's the 23rd.
27:04
And so let's go for like the
27:05
next four weeks.
27:07
Let's try and hit 12 gym workouts.
27:11
That's three a week.
27:13
It's a very manageable goal.
27:15
Three days a week of getting into the gym.
27:18
And I think, you know,
27:19
you still do stuff at home.
27:20
You know,
27:21
I think that that's realistic for you.
27:24
And yeah.
27:26
But anyways,
27:28
I think that we're in a good
27:29
spot this week.
27:30
Yep.
27:31
Agreed.
27:32
So I'm sorry that I was a
27:33
few minutes late again, though.
27:34
I feel bad.
27:34
I was late.
27:35
That's all right.
27:36
Yeah.
27:37
So Judy, the app that I was talking about,
27:40
I think she was probably
27:41
talking about the notifications.
27:45
It's TrainerEyes.
27:46
It's the name of an app that
27:47
I use that tracks all my clients,
27:50
all of their data,
27:51
and I can communicate with
27:52
them through that.
27:54
So that's what you're asking about.
27:55
I think that's what she was asking about.
27:57
And just to answer Judy's last question,
27:59
I thought all CrossFit gyms had those.
28:01
I've never been at a
28:03
CrossFit gym that had them.
28:05
i know my old gym used to
28:07
have someone bring one in
28:09
like once a year twice a
28:10
year they're expensive um
28:14
one of the gyms locally has
28:15
one we well one of the
28:17
crossfit gyms locally has
28:18
one but there's other
28:19
places around here that
28:20
have them so we could
28:22
probably just look one up
28:23
if you really wanted to do
28:24
it because it would be
28:25
interesting for you to have that um
28:28
Were you sitting the egg
28:30
thing done before?
28:32
Oh yeah.
28:32
That's, that's a bod pod.
28:33
I don't really think even
28:34
the end bodies aren't super accurate,
28:36
but what I like about the
28:38
end body is it is cheap.
28:40
It's usually going to cost
28:41
you like 20 bucks and it's
28:43
comparing apples to apples
28:45
if you do it in the same.
28:47
So you'll see,
28:48
it's cool to track your trends.
28:50
It's not really accurate in terms of like,
28:52
like it might tell you that
28:53
you're 25% body fat and you
28:54
could be 28 or 23 and
28:57
But what it is very accurate
28:58
at is tracking your weight,
29:00
your body fat percentage
29:02
trends down or up.
29:04
So that's what I like it for.
29:07
Kenneth, I thought you were not a fan.
29:09
Like I just mentioned,
29:10
I am not a huge fan.
29:11
I don't think that they're super accurate,
29:13
but they're good for
29:14
comparing apples to apples.
29:16
So essentially,
29:18
if it tells you that you're
29:19
20% body fat and you might
29:22
be 16 or you might be 24,
29:25
what it is going to be
29:26
accurate at is if you go on
29:28
that same machine under the
29:30
same situations,
29:31
which I'll talk about in a second,
29:33
and in six weeks from now,
29:35
it will likely show you a
29:36
pretty consistent change in
29:38
your body fat percentage.
29:40
And what I don't like about
29:42
the in-bodies is that
29:44
they're very easy to skew
29:46
if you don't know what you don't know.
29:50
So like hydration factors,
29:52
if you are more hydrated,
29:54
you will look leaner.
29:55
If you are dehydrated,
29:56
you will look fatter.
29:58
If you've worked out the day before,
30:00
you will look fatter
30:01
because it goes by water
30:04
and it's all that stuff.
30:05
It's not as accurate as a DEXA scan.
30:08
But again,
30:09
it's pretty cheap and available.
30:12
They used to be a lot harder to find.
30:14
Now they're $20, $25,
30:16
and they are pretty readily available.
30:19
So that's pretty funny, Kenneth.
30:23
Jazzercise.
30:24
I never got into the Jazzercise stuff,
30:26
so...
30:28
Yes,
30:29
and that's what Judy just said is
30:30
exactly what I was trying to say.
30:31
So, good stuff.
30:33
But, yeah.
30:36
All right.
30:36
Anything else to add?
30:39
Nope.
30:41
All right.
30:42
Well, good stuff.
30:43
So,
30:44
I guess I'm looking forward to
30:45
hopefully seeing how things
30:46
look next week.
30:47
We're looking at protein, fiber,
30:50
all the good stuff.
30:52
Yep.
30:53
That's what we're shooting for.
30:54
So...
30:58
Larry Young says,
30:59
I thought about a DEXA scan,
31:00
but everyone says all of
31:01
them kind of have a lot of variability.
31:03
The DEXA scans are the most accurate.
31:06
So just so you know,
31:08
that is the most accurate
31:09
way to measure it.
31:11
Of all of them,
31:11
that's going to be the one
31:12
that's going to give you
31:13
the most reading.
31:15
It's kind of like, unless you,
31:16
unless you had somebody like dissect you,
31:18
but like,
31:19
it's really going to be that
31:20
that's the most accurate.
31:23
Yeah.
31:23
Awesome.
31:25
All right, guys.
31:26
Well, thank you so much for joining us.
31:30
Can't wait till next week.
31:32
We'll see you all next week
31:33
on the Clydesdale media
31:36
weight loss journey.
