Latest / Glovisor Podcast / He Spent 30 Years Building the AllCore360 To Change Lives | Dr. Scott Bertrand [Ep 83]
Transcript
- 0:00Speaker 1: People spend 30, 40, 50 minutes on their core and
- 0:02Speaker 1: you don't have to. So you know the problem with
- 0:05Speaker 1: exercise is I don't have time. You're going to have
- 0:07Speaker 1: to really come up with an excuse to say why
- 0:09Speaker 1: you don't have 10 minutes. So that's the other gift.
- 0:15Speaker 2: Welcome to the Glowvisor podcast where we explore business growth, communication,
- 0:19Speaker 2: and personal development through real conversations with people who make
- 0:22Speaker 2: an impact. Our guest turned a life-changing spinal injury into
- 0:27Speaker 2: a decades-long mission to improve how people move, recover, and
- 0:31Speaker 2: strengthen their core. He created the All-Core 360. Glow of
- 0:37Speaker 2: Eyes and welcomes Dr. Scott Bertrand.
- 0:40Speaker 1: Thank you. Good morning, and I appreciate the opportunity to
- 0:42Speaker 1: talk with you and your audience. I appreciate that. Thank you.
- 0:46Speaker 2: Tell us a little bit more about the All-Core 360.
- 0:49Speaker 1: Well, you know what it is? It's a robotic device
- 0:51Speaker 1: that addresses the full core. And I think one of
- 0:54Speaker 1: the problems with us addressing the core is we don't
- 0:57Speaker 1: really understand the definition of what the core really is. And,
- 1:01Speaker 1: you know, nowadays what you'll see is cores become a buzzword.
- 1:05Speaker 1: You know, it's this core and that core. And most
- 1:07Speaker 1: people envision the core when they think of it as
- 1:09Speaker 1: their abdominal muscles, maybe their six-pack. They're trying to get
- 1:14Speaker 1: this section of their body in shape. But what the
- 1:16Speaker 1: core really is, it starts at the base of the
- 1:19Speaker 1: skull and extends all the way down to the sacrum.
- 1:22Speaker 1: So it's an elongated tomb of dozens of muscles, tubes
- 1:26Speaker 1: of muscles, that really maintain this perfect posture. So the
- 1:30Speaker 1: All-Core 360 is designed to challenge that complex core system.
- 1:35Speaker 1: in a way that God designed us to perform. You know,
- 1:38Speaker 1: we don't challenge it the way God designed us to perform,
- 1:41Speaker 1: and that's what this does.
- 1:43Speaker 2: That sounds really interesting, Scott. But how did you put
- 1:46Speaker 2: all this together? What cost you to start it off?
- 1:50Speaker 1: That's a great question, Joe. I think most of the
- 1:52Speaker 1: health devices you see out there, the inventors or the
- 1:56Speaker 1: creators probably had a personal experience. They either suffered it
- 2:00Speaker 1: themselves or had a family-loved member that wasn't being taken
- 2:03Speaker 1: care of properly. In my case, it was I fractured
- 2:07Speaker 1: my low back in a skydiving injury. And, you know,
- 2:11Speaker 1: I did it when I was 18 or 19 or 18,
- 2:13Speaker 1: I suppose. And at that time, like everybody, I think
- 2:16Speaker 1: we expect the doctors in the world to fix us.
- 2:19Speaker 1: You know, we just assume that they're going to be
- 2:21Speaker 1: able to fix us. And I went into care after
- 2:24Speaker 1: I fractured my spinal cord and the fixing wasn't working.
- 2:29Speaker 1: And first off, I was shocked that it wasn't working
- 2:32Speaker 1: because I thought medicine knew everything. And then I realized
- 2:36Speaker 1: shortly thereafter that they were struggling deeply with how the
- 2:40Speaker 1: spinal cord worked on many levels. And so for me,
- 2:44Speaker 1: after my injury, I just kind of had to wipe
- 2:46Speaker 1: the slate clean and just kind of start over from scratch.
- 2:50Speaker 1: You know, like, why do we have a core? What's
- 2:53Speaker 1: the best way to take care of a core? What
- 2:55Speaker 1: is the, in my world, it was the defining difference
- 3:00Speaker 1: was why we have a core, there's a survival value
- 3:04Speaker 1: there's a survival value for the eyes and the ears
- 3:06Speaker 1: and the nose and everything we don't have anything extra
- 3:09Speaker 1: no compartments or components we don't need so why do
- 3:13Speaker 1: we have a core why do we really have a
- 3:15Speaker 1: core and it's not to do sit-ups they're crying out
- 3:18Speaker 1: loud that can't be it it really can't be and
- 3:21Speaker 1: so i looked at that and i thought here's our
- 3:25Speaker 1: biggest problem was joe and i think this was the
- 3:27Speaker 1: eureka moment we we took a body part let's call
- 3:31Speaker 1: it the core And for some reason, Joe, we decided
- 3:35Speaker 1: to call the core a box. There was a front
- 3:37Speaker 1: and a back and a right and a left. And
- 3:39Speaker 1: it's not. It's a two. And so when you take
- 3:42Speaker 1: a front and back, right, left, all of a sudden
- 3:44Speaker 1: you think you can train or challenge it in four degrees.
- 3:49Speaker 1: You know, I can challenge this way and this way.
- 3:52Speaker 1: But it's a 360-degree muscle. And what in the world
- 3:55Speaker 1: do we do with the other muscles? 356 degrees. What
- 3:58Speaker 1: did they do to get in shape? So I realized,
- 4:02Speaker 1: what an awful mistake we made. And we did it
- 4:04Speaker 1: across the board. It wasn't just me. It was everybody.
- 4:07Speaker 1: And I realized, what happened? So I realized the concept
- 4:12Speaker 1: was wrong. We started at the very beginning, but the
- 4:15Speaker 1: concept was wrong. So until we really understood the value
- 4:19Speaker 1: of what the core was. So it's a tube. It's
- 4:21Speaker 1: not a box. And why do we have it? The
- 4:24Speaker 1: only reason we have it is to survive. How does
- 4:27Speaker 1: it help us survive? And this is a huge, I
- 4:31Speaker 1: use the term core, a huge core concept. Here's what
- 4:35Speaker 1: me and you in the world do to challenge our core.
- 4:39Speaker 1: Let's sit up. We decide to bend in half, okay?
- 4:45Speaker 1: What is a survival? How would that help me survive?
- 4:49Speaker 1: Could I ever be in a situation where laying on
- 4:51Speaker 1: my back, I had to hurry up and bend in half?
- 4:54Speaker 1: You know, I almost can't conceivably think of that. So
- 4:57Speaker 1: that can't be it. That's not why we have that
- 5:00Speaker 1: muscle to bend in half because we'd never do that.
- 5:01Speaker 1: It's This is it. Here it is. The muscles aren't
- 5:06Speaker 1: for flexion. They're to stop extension. If we get forced
- 5:11Speaker 1: back too much, our spinal cord is going to break
- 5:13Speaker 1: and then we're going to die or get paralyzed. If
- 5:16Speaker 1: we get forced too far to the right, it's going
- 5:18Speaker 1: to break that way. So the idea is what the
- 5:21Speaker 1: core is for is to make it a perfectly strong, stable, stable.
- 5:25Speaker 1: Stable is the deal. It doesn't have to bend and
- 5:27Speaker 1: twist and turn and flop because we don't do that.
- 5:30Speaker 1: What we do is we have to be able to
- 5:32Speaker 1: handle an impact from any direction in a 360-degree, three-dimensional world.
- 5:38Speaker 1: That's how we survived as cavemen. Do we do that today?
- 5:42Speaker 1: Not so much. But that's how we evolved, and that's
- 5:45Speaker 1: the muscle that needs to be challenged. It's not a muscle.
- 5:49Speaker 1: It's a complex system of muscles. And until we really
- 5:53Speaker 1: realized it, we just missed it. I could go on
- 5:57Speaker 1: and on how bad we missed it. But what happened was,
- 6:00Speaker 1: let's talk about me and you again. We go into
- 6:04Speaker 1: a gym and we look across the gym and there's
- 6:07Speaker 1: a gentleman standing over there with a perfect six pack.
- 6:11Speaker 1: And we all envy that guy. I want that. And
- 6:14Speaker 1: he's over there doing leg lifts. And we all think
- 6:17Speaker 1: leg lifts are the answer to a six pack. 90%
- 6:20Speaker 1: of the time he was born with that. But it's
- 6:22Speaker 1: not leg lifts. You know, that's not it. And so
- 6:25Speaker 1: that was the problem. We all did leg lifts all
- 6:27Speaker 1: day and none of us got six packs. So it
- 6:30Speaker 1: ended up, what is it really for? And it's to
- 6:33Speaker 1: protect us with a shield of armor. Big, solid. We've
- 6:36Speaker 1: got important things in here. And then it's to stop
- 6:39Speaker 1: us from breaking. So when we challenge it that way,
- 6:43Speaker 1: and the challenge is isometric. There you go. It's isometric.
- 6:47Speaker 1: It's not isotonic. It's not bending and flipping. It's stability.
- 6:51Speaker 1: It's survivability. That's what the core is for. And that's
- 6:55Speaker 1: what this machine does. It takes 10 minutes of your time.
- 7:00Speaker 1: It gives you a balanced challenge to improve your survivability. And,
- 7:04Speaker 1: you know, that's what health care is, survivability. How long
- 7:08Speaker 1: can we last and can we not hurt that whole time?
- 7:11Speaker 1: That's our goal.
- 7:12Speaker 2: What's interesting here is not that I needed another reason
- 7:15Speaker 2: not to do a sit-up, but, you know, the doctor
- 7:17Speaker 2: just told me I don't have to.
- 7:19Speaker 1: But you can't do it in 10 minutes. You know,
- 7:21Speaker 1: some people spend 30, 40, 50 minutes on their core,
- 7:23Speaker 1: and you don't have to. So, you know, the problem
- 7:25Speaker 1: with exercise is I don't have time. You got 10 minutes, Joe.
- 7:30Speaker 1: You got 10 minutes, you know. You're going to have
- 7:32Speaker 1: to really come up with an excuse to say why
- 7:34Speaker 1: you don't have 10 minutes. So that's the other gift.
- 7:38Speaker 2: I'm going to edit this portion out, though.
- 7:42Speaker 1: I get it, yeah.
- 7:43Speaker 2: It's interesting because I never thought about it that way.
- 7:46Speaker 2: The way you're saying that, you know, the 360, you
- 7:49Speaker 2: always do think about it as front, back, and side,
- 7:52Speaker 2: left side, and right side. You never really think of
- 7:55Speaker 2: it as that. an encasement for everything else that's in there.
- 8:00Speaker 2: So that's a very interesting perspective. Now, once you had
- 8:02Speaker 2: that realization, that eureka moment, now what? Now you decided,
- 8:07Speaker 2: I'm going to go ahead and build something that addresses it.
- 8:10Speaker 2: And how do you do something like that if you've
- 8:13Speaker 2: never seen one before?
- 8:14Speaker 1: There's another great question, Joe. And I appreciate you asking
- 8:18Speaker 1: these because these are the pivotal moments from concept to
- 8:23Speaker 1: being in the world where we are now. You know, I,
- 8:28Speaker 1: So I hurt myself in the service. And because I
- 8:30Speaker 1: hurt myself, I decided to spend my career, at least
- 8:33Speaker 1: my early career, in understanding the spine. I thought they
- 8:37Speaker 1: knew what they were doing, and they didn't. And that
- 8:39Speaker 1: bothered me and worried me. So I decided to kind
- 8:43Speaker 1: of pursue a career in the spine. And at that
- 8:47Speaker 1: time in my world, the chiropractors had the best handle
- 8:51Speaker 1: on what was going on with the spine. So I
- 8:52Speaker 1: decided to become a chiropractor and pursue spinal care in
- 8:56Speaker 1: that way. And it was in that, by the way,
- 9:00Speaker 1: I told you about my first injury. It was while
- 9:02Speaker 1: I was in chiropractic school that I broke my neck.
- 9:05Speaker 1: And so here it goes again. And the first time,
- 9:09Speaker 1: and I'll just be really frank with you because you
- 9:13Speaker 1: asked me how it moved. The first time, it was
- 9:16Speaker 1: about me. And it's important when it's about you, it is.
- 9:22Speaker 1: And you do the best you can for yourself. But
- 9:25Speaker 1: after my second injury, I started realizing that the world
- 9:28Speaker 1: was full of me's and it wasn't just me. And
- 9:32Speaker 1: that changed it from it's a good idea to how
- 9:37Speaker 1: can you not take care of these people when you
- 9:39Speaker 1: know you have something that can. And that was such
- 9:42Speaker 1: a huge difference. It wasn't, you know, I actually waited
- 9:46Speaker 1: around a year. This is what I thought. I said, well, man,
- 9:48Speaker 1: that is a good idea. Surely somebody else is going
- 9:51Speaker 1: to come up with that. And I was just by theirs.
- 9:54Speaker 1: And I sat around, honestly, waiting for someone else to
- 9:57Speaker 1: come up with it. And God kept, and that's when
- 9:59Speaker 1: I got, I had the second injury. And I said, no,
- 10:03Speaker 1: God's telling you, buddy, this is your job. You're the
- 10:06Speaker 1: one that needs to do this. And so I struggled
- 10:10Speaker 1: because when I came back to the, why we have
- 10:14Speaker 1: a core, the survivability of the core, here's what I
- 10:16Speaker 1: had to come up with. I mean, just think of
- 10:19Speaker 1: what I was trying to do. It had to be
- 10:21Speaker 1: an isometric device. Okay, that alone is a massive challenge.
- 10:28Speaker 1: It had to work all the muscles of the core. Oh,
- 10:30Speaker 1: my gosh. All the muscles of the core? I mean,
- 10:32Speaker 1: I'm thinking, oh, you know, I'm asking a lot out
- 10:35Speaker 1: of myself. And I thought it has to be capable
- 10:41Speaker 1: of addressing you and me and this person. So it
- 10:43Speaker 1: has to have variability across a huge spectrum of people.
- 10:47Speaker 1: It has to be, like I said, it had to
- 10:48Speaker 1: be isometric. It had to be 360 degrees. I wanted
- 10:53Speaker 1: wheelchair use. I wanted all of these things. And I'm just,
- 10:56Speaker 1: I would build these devices in my mind and they
- 10:58Speaker 1: would break down. It wouldn't work, wouldn't work, wouldn't work.
- 11:02Speaker 1: And that was confusing to me because I really felt
- 11:05Speaker 1: like this is something that was really important. And just
- 11:07Speaker 1: like you hear, Joe, I'm telling you, in the middle
- 11:10Speaker 1: of the night, I have the dream. The dream. It
- 11:14Speaker 1: really happened that way. The whole machine comes to me intact.
- 11:18Speaker 1: There it is in the dream. It's all there and
- 11:21Speaker 1: it's working. And I get up and I draw this
- 11:23Speaker 1: machine on my two o'clock in the morning. And I've
- 11:27Speaker 1: been building that machine ever since. And it's worked. So
- 11:33Speaker 1: that was that pivotal moment. And what I think it is,
- 11:35Speaker 1: once you fill your mind with every conceivable option that's
- 11:39Speaker 1: out there, that's the only time you create that gap
- 11:43Speaker 1: that needs to be filled in. So first you have
- 11:45Speaker 1: to look at everything that's there. And then the gap
- 11:49Speaker 1: just presents itself in a way. And when it came
- 11:51Speaker 1: in the dream, it's that hypnagogic state. There's a state
- 11:54Speaker 1: we get into that's, I mean, I felt like it
- 11:58Speaker 1: came from God personally. But, you know, there's a state
- 12:00Speaker 1: you get into that you can conceive things a little
- 12:04Speaker 1: bit easier. It's a very creative space. And that's where
- 12:07Speaker 1: this came from. You know, that's how it started.
- 12:09Speaker 2: I do agree with you. I mean, I think you're
- 12:11Speaker 2: probably receiving the message and you weren't doing anything about
- 12:14Speaker 2: it when you were sent the first message. And I
- 12:16Speaker 2: think that's why you probably had the second injury. And
- 12:19Speaker 2: it's like, hey, this is your wake up moment. You
- 12:21Speaker 2: have to do this because if this happens, you can
- 12:23Speaker 2: help so many other people. Imagine if you didn't have that.
- 12:27Speaker 2: How many people would not have that?
- 12:29Speaker 1: So I feel that same way. And, you know, like anything.
- 12:33Speaker 1: And you mentioned that you have an audience of maybe entrepreneurs.
- 12:37Speaker 1: Don't give up. It's so, so easy. It's so easy
- 12:41Speaker 1: to let it go. It's so easy to fall back
- 12:43Speaker 1: in your routines. It's so easy. And like I said,
- 12:46Speaker 1: I was sure that God was leading me because he
- 12:48Speaker 1: kept beating me up to make sure I got it done.
- 12:50Speaker 1: But you don't let the idea go. You know, it's
- 12:55Speaker 1: taken me 30 years. I mean, if I told you that, hey, Joe,
- 12:58Speaker 1: you got a great idea 30 years from now, it'll
- 13:00Speaker 1: be great. You're going to go, oh, forget that. I
- 13:03Speaker 1: got stuff to do this weekend. That's really how it goes.
- 13:06Speaker 1: But The struggle to put together something that has this
- 13:10Speaker 1: kind of impact. And in health care, it's a little
- 13:13Speaker 1: bit different, Joe, because it's not like it's a new
- 13:15Speaker 1: windshield wiper, which we probably could use a new windshield wiper,
- 13:18Speaker 1: you know. But the fact that it can actually help people,
- 13:23Speaker 1: what it could never do, and this was the other
- 13:25Speaker 1: thing that was so important, it could never hurt people.
- 13:28Speaker 1: You know, I just could not, I couldn't stand the thought.
- 13:33Speaker 1: So that's tough. You know, you put together a challenge,
- 13:36Speaker 1: but it's got to be safe. safe for people that
- 13:38Speaker 1: are injured. I picked a hard path. I really did.
- 13:44Speaker 1: But it's been well worth it. Absolutely.
- 13:47Speaker 2: I don't think you picked it. It probably seems like
- 13:49Speaker 2: you were picked for it.
- 13:50Speaker 1: I think so, yeah.
- 13:52Speaker 2: You were the right person for this. Because as you said,
- 13:55Speaker 2: not many people would stick through this to make it happen,
- 13:58Speaker 2: and you did. But would you be able to explain
- 14:01Speaker 2: to us a little bit of how it works?
- 14:03Speaker 1: Yeah. And again, that's the unique perspective of it. if
- 14:08Speaker 1: you picture it being isometric, so what we have to
- 14:10Speaker 1: do is contract the muscles without the body moving. How
- 14:14Speaker 1: do you contract literally dozens and dozens of muscles without
- 14:18Speaker 1: the body moving? So that becomes the real, the difficulty.
- 14:23Speaker 1: When you, let's say you were standing there and Mike
- 14:27Speaker 1: Tyson walked up to you and he threw a punch
- 14:29Speaker 1: towards your waist, you would go, you would tense up.
- 14:34Speaker 1: That tensing up is really you're isometrically contracting your entire core.
- 14:40Speaker 1: So how do I convert that to a challenge is
- 14:42Speaker 1: what the all-core does. So what you do is you
- 14:46Speaker 1: sit in a chair, is the best way to describe it,
- 14:49Speaker 1: and we isolate your upper body at the waistline. Your
- 14:54Speaker 1: lower body has to have no functionality, which is why
- 14:57Speaker 1: it's so good in that spinal cord injury, paralysis, cerebral palsy, stroke.
- 15:03Speaker 1: There are a lot of people in the world that
- 15:05Speaker 1: have structural damage that doesn't allow them to walk. They
- 15:08Speaker 1: need wheelchairs. Even people without legs, you know, they need
- 15:14Speaker 1: to be able to be secure from the waist down
- 15:16Speaker 1: for this to work. So the course starts at the sacrum.
- 15:20Speaker 1: We secure the sacrum and picture you're in a chair
- 15:25Speaker 1: and we tilt the chair back, but we take the
- 15:29Speaker 1: back off the chair. You can't lean on the back.
- 15:32Speaker 1: You've got to hold yourself up so you don't fall
- 15:35Speaker 1: off the back of the chair. So there it is.
- 15:38Speaker 1: That causes the whole anterior compartment from your chin really
- 15:42Speaker 1: to your crotch to tighten up so you don't fall back.
- 15:47Speaker 1: That's a 100% one degree anterior challenge. But now if
- 15:52Speaker 1: I move it one degree this way, now I've taken
- 15:56Speaker 1: that and made it one more degree this way. And
- 15:58Speaker 1: now I'm not 360, I'm 359. Then I'm 358. Then
- 16:02Speaker 1: I'm 357. I get every single angle in that 360
- 16:08Speaker 1: degree and I challenge it. Here's the other thing that's
- 16:11Speaker 1: so important. What's the perfect resistance for Joe? The perfect
- 16:17Speaker 1: resistance for Joe is Joe's body weight, not my body weight.
- 16:21Speaker 1: Joe doesn't need to move me around. Joe needs to
- 16:24Speaker 1: be able to move that body around. So what we
- 16:26Speaker 1: do is we put that body in there. We don't
- 16:29Speaker 1: add weights or strap weights or rubber bands or cylinders.
- 16:33Speaker 1: You're designed to move your body through space against gravity.
- 16:36Speaker 1: And I'm going to move your body through space against gravity.
- 16:39Speaker 1: And your muscles know what to do. They know how
- 16:42Speaker 1: to handle it. They are coordinated. You're firing three or
- 16:46Speaker 1: four muscles as a group. And when you do that,
- 16:48Speaker 1: that creates coordination. You're sitting in a chair getting coordinated.
- 16:53Speaker 1: That's almost inconceivable, but that's really what's happening to the
- 16:57Speaker 1: writer or the client. And the nice thing about this, Joe,
- 17:01Speaker 1: and I'll jump this real quick. One of the problems
- 17:04Speaker 1: with therapy and with exercise is in a day and
- 17:11Speaker 1: an age where Amazon delivers to me tomorrow, I want
- 17:15Speaker 1: my six-pack in the morning. I don't want to wait
- 17:17Speaker 1: till Friday, right? And I really don't want to wait
- 17:20Speaker 1: until December. So that's who we are. And by golly,
- 17:24Speaker 1: if I don't have it by Friday, I'm going to
- 17:25Speaker 1: do something else and go back to ice cream. That's
- 17:28Speaker 1: who people really are. The nice thing about the All
- 17:30Speaker 1: Corps is when you get off it the very first time,
- 17:33Speaker 1: 10 minutes, you immediately stand up straighter. You immediately have
- 17:37Speaker 1: a tension and posture that you forgot you had as
- 17:40Speaker 1: a child. It returns. And because it has instantaneous results,
- 17:46Speaker 1: You'll come back Wednesday and you'll come back Friday. It
- 17:49Speaker 1: happens right now. You don't have to wait six weeks. Now,
- 17:52Speaker 1: are you going to be perfect right now? No, but
- 17:55Speaker 1: you're going to absolutely know the difference between what I
- 17:57Speaker 1: was a minute ago and what I am now. And
- 18:01Speaker 1: that is enough motivation for most people to maybe not
- 18:05Speaker 1: drink Coke today. And maybe they're going to take the
- 18:07Speaker 1: steps instead of the elevator. You know, it's those little
- 18:10Speaker 1: ticks down the road that makes you healthy. It's not a,
- 18:15Speaker 1: You know, one size fits all. All the little things
- 18:17Speaker 1: that matter. And we pretty much have that. We've got
- 18:21Speaker 1: you from here to your rear end. If you walk
- 18:24Speaker 1: to the clinic and then you do some exercise for
- 18:27Speaker 1: your arms on the way home, you're good to go.
- 18:29Speaker 1: We got you.
- 18:31Speaker 2: Now, from the day that you drew that on the
- 18:34Speaker 2: paper to the first day that you saw the first machine,
- 18:40Speaker 2: how long did that take?
- 18:42Speaker 1: That time frame really was about six months. I've got
- 18:45Speaker 1: a brother who's an absolute, I mean, he is a
- 18:49Speaker 1: rocket scientist. He really is. I mean, that's what he
- 18:51Speaker 1: does and did. So, you know, he's that brilliant man.
- 18:55Speaker 1: So I, I dream the dream. I get up the
- 18:57Speaker 1: next morning. I call my brother, Jeff. I need a
- 19:01Speaker 1: machine that does this. He sends me a balsa wood
- 19:06Speaker 1: model in the mail within a week with a little mannequin,
- 19:09Speaker 1: like a little GI Joe figure on it. And, Within
- 19:13Speaker 1: six months, I built that. These are some interesting– you
- 19:18Speaker 1: won't see all the pictures of all the prototypes. That
- 19:22Speaker 1: first one I built, it was all duct tape and
- 19:25Speaker 1: wire ties. My wife had to turn it manually, but
- 19:30Speaker 1: it worked. From that moment on, it was constantly tweaking
- 19:35Speaker 1: and making it safe. That was really before computers really
- 19:39Speaker 1: took off. So when that happened, the software and all
- 19:43Speaker 1: those components that we can now add to the device
- 19:46Speaker 1: made it not just exceptional, it also made it an
- 19:50Speaker 1: exceptional diagnostic tool. So I got to develop it during
- 19:55Speaker 1: the time when the world was developing all these new technologies,
- 20:01Speaker 1: and it was perfect. If they weren't there, I wouldn't
- 20:04Speaker 1: be able to do it. But I had six months. Now,
- 20:07Speaker 1: the real key is, the question is, from there, So
- 20:11Speaker 1: when it actually got put into a hospital clinic, 25 years.
- 20:18Speaker 1: There's the difference. That's a lifetime of tweaking. But, you know, again,
- 20:23Speaker 1: you know, it was a very difficult task, I realize
- 20:26Speaker 1: it was. And, again, just to share with you, I mean,
- 20:32Speaker 1: if I needed an engineer, because you have to have
- 20:35Speaker 1: an engineer when you're developing things like this, that was
- 20:38Speaker 1: 30 grand. And you have to have a patent. And
- 20:41Speaker 1: that was 30 grand. And then that prototype that was
- 20:44Speaker 1: actually built, well, that was 50 grand. And so, you know, unfortunately,
- 20:49Speaker 1: my family missed a whole lot of vacations because dad's
- 20:52Speaker 1: over here in the garage trying to build this monstrosity
- 20:56Speaker 1: that he knows is going to be able to take
- 20:57Speaker 1: care of people. You know, that was a life. I
- 20:59Speaker 1: can't imagine what my children thought. They had another sibling
- 21:03Speaker 1: in the garage. You know, they got all the attention.
- 21:05Speaker 1: But it's... And at the end of the day, though,
- 21:08Speaker 1: it worked out. Like I said, it has worked out.
- 21:10Speaker 1: That's great.
- 21:12Speaker 2: We're going to need Jeff's number, by the way. But
- 21:18Speaker 2: what would you say was your biggest challenge that you
- 21:20Speaker 2: had to overcome in the whole process?
- 21:23Speaker 1: For me, it's an innovative concept. So taking somebody who
- 21:28Speaker 1: just didn't know about it and trying to explain what
- 21:32Speaker 1: you're trying to do with without a machine that they
- 21:36Speaker 1: can use, that was absolutely the challenge. I can't tell
- 21:40Speaker 1: you how many times I sat in front of somebody
- 21:42Speaker 1: and believe me, Joe, I know this works. So, and
- 21:47Speaker 1: I know, I know, I know, and I'm trying to
- 21:49Speaker 1: explain it to that person and he's at, he doesn't
- 21:51Speaker 1: get it. And it's, and it's driving me up a wall.
- 21:54Speaker 1: If I had a quarter for every no I had,
- 21:56Speaker 1: I could have retired a long time ago. Could, They
- 21:59Speaker 1: just didn't get the concept. And understandably, it was a
- 22:02Speaker 1: unique concept because it looked like you were sitting in
- 22:04Speaker 1: a recliner. And how does this even work? And so
- 22:07Speaker 1: nobody could even grasp it. And that was really it,
- 22:11Speaker 1: trying to find somebody that actually understood. And I never did.
- 22:15Speaker 1: And ended up, I had to build it all by myself,
- 22:17Speaker 1: do it all alone, and basically force it into a hospital. Now,
- 22:21Speaker 1: that's another story. I didn't force it. It was a
- 22:23Speaker 1: beautiful opportunity. But it had to get into the world
- 22:27Speaker 1: and be used. before it was even accepted. You know,
- 22:30Speaker 1: it had to be in the world before people even
- 22:33Speaker 1: wanted to pay attention to it. And that is tough.
- 22:37Speaker 1: I mean, that's a tough challenge.
- 22:39Speaker 2: When you're bringing something that's never been there before for
- 22:41Speaker 2: people to really welcome into their lives. You know, sometimes
- 22:46Speaker 2: many people are late adopters. Very few early adopters. But,
- 22:51Speaker 2: you know, I've been to your website. It's a beautiful website.
- 22:54Speaker 2: But the first thing that I saw, the All Corps 360,
- 22:58Speaker 2: And it really looks like you're doing astronaut training. That's
- 23:02Speaker 2: what it looked like to me immediately. Would you be
- 23:04Speaker 2: able to share with us possibly a client success story,
- 23:09Speaker 2: someone who's had this machine and it's had some amazing transformation?
- 23:13Speaker 1: My goodness, Joe, I've got so many. In fact, I
- 23:15Speaker 1: live for them. I've got providers all over the world.
- 23:19Speaker 1: And if there's one thing they know they need to
- 23:21Speaker 1: do is they need to let me know when they
- 23:22Speaker 1: have a miracle. Because we have so many wonderful stories
- 23:26Speaker 1: out there and I could go on and on, but
- 23:28Speaker 1: There's one that kind of really started it all out.
- 23:31Speaker 1: I had to really see it. It was working on me,
- 23:34Speaker 1: but then I was pretty passionate about it. I don't know.
- 23:37Speaker 1: It was going to work on me. I was going
- 23:39Speaker 1: to make sure it worked on me, but to have
- 23:41Speaker 1: it work on somebody else. It was in my clinic.
- 23:45Speaker 1: It was a prototype. Because I had quite a few
- 23:49Speaker 1: patients that saw my monstrosity, I had several people that
- 23:54Speaker 1: were using it. I was, you know, it was research
- 23:58Speaker 1: and we're making some pretty good progress. My best friend
- 24:02Speaker 1: was also a chiropractor and an incredible chiropractor and a
- 24:05Speaker 1: good colleague of mine. Also, he calls me up one
- 24:08Speaker 1: day and says, and by the way, this would be
- 24:10Speaker 1: the first time a person in a wheelchair would use it.
- 24:14Speaker 1: But he calls me up and says, you know, I really,
- 24:17Speaker 1: really think that your machine will really help Lori, who's
- 24:21Speaker 1: his patient. And I would really like to give it
- 24:24Speaker 1: a try. Oh, my goodness. I would do it for
- 24:26Speaker 1: him as my best friend, but I would do it
- 24:28Speaker 1: for Lori anyway as well. So here she shows up.
- 24:32Speaker 1: I remember this was my first wheelchair patient. And she
- 24:34Speaker 1: rolls in, you know, in a wheelchair, and she's got
- 24:36Speaker 1: a beautiful attitude with her father, who also is a
- 24:42Speaker 1: wonderful man. I can go on and on about these two. But,
- 24:45Speaker 1: you know, she's been in a wheelchair for a decade.
- 24:48Speaker 1: And being in a wheelchair for a decade, you lose
- 24:50Speaker 1: a lot of the muscle tone, very little muscle tone.
- 24:54Speaker 1: But having said that, she has spent every day since
- 24:58Speaker 1: her injury trying to recover. It's not like she's sitting
- 25:01Speaker 1: around not doing anything. She's going to the most advanced
- 25:04Speaker 1: spinal surgery centers all over the world for care. And
- 25:08Speaker 1: she has continued to do so. So I guess what
- 25:11Speaker 1: I'm saying is she's highly motivated. And with anybody in
- 25:14Speaker 1: the world, if you want to accomplish anything, you better
- 25:17Speaker 1: tick that box. So she's highly motivated. So she comes
- 25:22Speaker 1: into the room. and we have to lift her up
- 25:27Speaker 1: to put her in the chair. We have to pull
- 25:28Speaker 1: her out of the wheelchair and set her in my device.
- 25:32Speaker 1: Not that I was trying to see how she felt,
- 25:34Speaker 1: but when I lifted her up, it was obvious she
- 25:36Speaker 1: was fluffy. You know, she was very soft. You know,
- 25:41Speaker 1: and I wouldn't expect anything else. The machine itself, the
- 25:45Speaker 1: difficulty in the machine is increased by the angle of
- 25:49Speaker 1: the resistance. So as you tilt back, it gets more difficult.
- 25:53Speaker 1: So that's just so you understand that. So she's brand new,
- 25:56Speaker 1: never been in it. I said an extremely easy setting,
- 26:01Speaker 1: as I should. She rides it and does well the
- 26:06Speaker 1: whole time. You know, she makes it for the full
- 26:07Speaker 1: 10 minutes, only 10 minutes. She makes it for 10
- 26:09Speaker 1: minutes and we get her off and she gets in
- 26:12Speaker 1: a wheelchair and she seems fine. And that was at,
- 26:16Speaker 1: I want to say about 60 degrees. So they decide
- 26:20Speaker 1: they're going to give it a try. It didn't hurt her.
- 26:22Speaker 1: And right now, that's where we were at. So the
- 26:25Speaker 1: next day, she rolls in, great attitude. And her father says,
- 26:30Speaker 1: she wants to be at 55 degrees today. And I said, well,
- 26:33Speaker 1: wait a minute. That 60 degree challenge, we normally do
- 26:36Speaker 1: that for like a week. And then we go to 59,
- 26:38Speaker 1: then 58. You know, we don't just jump down to
- 26:42Speaker 1: 55 because, I mean, nobody does that. And he says, well,
- 26:45Speaker 1: you'll need to. I said, well, I would never do that.
- 26:49Speaker 1: He said, well, she's not going to get out of
- 26:50Speaker 1: your chair until you put her down there. And she wasn't.
- 26:55Speaker 1: So I thought, oh, my gosh. You know, I'm going,
- 26:58Speaker 1: I wouldn't hurt this woman for the world. So in
- 27:00Speaker 1: a very fearful stage, I go ahead and do that
- 27:03Speaker 1: for her. I'm frightened. Sure enough, she knocks it out
- 27:09Speaker 1: at 55 degrees. And then I see her, you know,
- 27:12Speaker 1: now I know who she is. And so from that
- 27:15Speaker 1: moment on, she didn't miss a day.
- 27:18Speaker 2: And in about a month, and I remember I'm picking
- 27:21Speaker 2: her up and putting her in the device.
- 27:23Speaker 1: And now I'm picking her up, and instead of being
- 27:26Speaker 1: a little fluffy person, she's starting to feel like a
- 27:29Speaker 1: granite statue. This is now a rock. I'm putting this
- 27:34Speaker 1: rock on. I'm thinking, this is one of the most
- 27:36Speaker 1: amazing things. I mean, I knew her, but to watch
- 27:40Speaker 1: this happen to this woman, absolutely amazing. Her home was
- 27:46Speaker 1: basically a physical therapy studio. They did everything to help her.
- 27:50Speaker 1: But here I'm seeing a change, and I'm super excited
- 27:52Speaker 1: about it. So about eight weeks into it, her dad
- 27:57Speaker 1: calls me up and says, me and her mom want
- 28:01Speaker 1: to come in and talk to you. And Joe, I
- 28:03Speaker 1: was so afraid that maybe I had hurt her. I
- 28:07Speaker 1: didn't even know. I did not hurt her. And so
- 28:11Speaker 1: they came in and sat down. He said, have you
- 28:17Speaker 1: told me that you're going to be able to do
- 28:18Speaker 1: this for my daughter? But it would have cost me
- 28:21Speaker 1: a million dollars. I would have found that money. I
- 28:29Speaker 1: knew it wasn't about me anymore. It was them. They
- 28:33Speaker 1: needed it so bad. And so, and she was showing
- 28:38Speaker 1: this remarkable recovery. So I thought, you know, this is
- 28:41Speaker 1: going to be my life now. But here's what I
- 28:44Speaker 1: didn't know. Remember, I told you she was this motivated individual.
- 28:47Speaker 1: So we have Shepherd Center in Atlanta. It is a
- 28:51Speaker 1: renowned spinal cord injury center. one of the best in
- 28:54Speaker 1: the world, and she was going there. I didn't know
- 29:00Speaker 1: she was spending all day in therapy. I just knew
- 29:02Speaker 1: I had her for this amount of time, and I
- 29:05Speaker 1: took care of her during that amount of time. So
- 29:10Speaker 1: what was happening was the people at the Shepherd Center
- 29:13Speaker 1: saw her. They saw what happened to her in a month.
- 29:17Speaker 1: They saw that they'd been working with her for a decade,
- 29:19Speaker 1: and they saw that it changed in a month. All
- 29:22Speaker 1: of a sudden, I got more wheelchair people showing up. And,
- 29:25Speaker 1: you know, this is kind of funny a little bit,
- 29:27Speaker 1: but I don't know why I didn't think of this,
- 29:29Speaker 1: but people in wheelchairs know other people in wheelchairs. So
- 29:33Speaker 1: there was a referral out there, and all of a sudden,
- 29:35Speaker 1: I've got a lot of people in wheelchairs showing up,
- 29:37Speaker 1: and I'm thrilled because we're helping so many of them.
- 29:40Speaker 1: of them. But what I didn't realize was they were
- 29:42Speaker 1: all going to the Shepherd Center. So all of a sudden,
- 29:45Speaker 1: I get a little phone call from the Shepherd Center.
- 29:48Speaker 1: What the hell are you doing over there? What is
- 29:51Speaker 1: going on? The head of physical therapy comes over. I mean,
- 29:55Speaker 1: that's right there. That's a commitment that shows me how
- 29:57Speaker 1: impressive they are. They're going to drive across town and see,
- 30:01Speaker 1: what the heck are you doing? So here he comes over.
- 30:04Speaker 1: And here's something really interesting, Joe. And I hope you
- 30:07Speaker 1: get a chance to use it. I really do, because
- 30:09Speaker 1: I think you'll see it. But the more knowledgeable you
- 30:12Speaker 1: are in the space, like if you're a neurologist and
- 30:15Speaker 1: you get on the device, you realize what's going on
- 30:18Speaker 1: right away. If you're a bodybuilder, you realize it in
- 30:22Speaker 1: about five minutes. If you're a student athlete, you get
- 30:25Speaker 1: it in about 10 minutes. But, you know, you can
- 30:27Speaker 1: kind of tell the person's knowledge by when they get
- 30:30Speaker 1: what's going on. So I get the physical therapist on there.
- 30:34Speaker 1: About three minutes. He's on for about three minutes and
- 30:38Speaker 1: he is waving his arms going, we've got to have this.
- 30:40Speaker 1: We've got to have this. We're going to get this. And,
- 30:43Speaker 1: you know, of course, I'm excited because I hadn't really
- 30:45Speaker 1: sold one yet. I mean, I'm still taking care of people,
- 30:48Speaker 1: you know, and yeah, I want you to have one. Sure.
- 30:51Speaker 1: But what he does, he goes back to the hospital.
- 30:54Speaker 1: Next day, he comes back with the director of research
- 30:56Speaker 1: from the hospital. He gets on it. A couple minutes later, again,
- 31:01Speaker 1: about three minutes into it, he gets it. He figures
- 31:04Speaker 1: it out. They go back. They come back with another
- 31:07Speaker 1: head of the main head of the overall physical therapy.
- 31:11Speaker 1: She gets on it, says the same thing. But they're
- 31:14Speaker 1: not decision makers. These are the people that do the work,
- 31:17Speaker 1: and they see what it can do. But this is
- 31:20Speaker 1: an innovative approach. piece of equipment that's never been anywhere.
- 31:24Speaker 1: But they go back to that hospital, and amongst the
- 31:27Speaker 1: three of them, they convince the medical director of the
- 31:30Speaker 1: Shepherd Center to come to my office. So he comes
- 31:33Speaker 1: in there, and it's kind of funny because he walked over.
- 31:35Speaker 1: He's a very authoritative man, of course. He walks over,
- 31:40Speaker 1: and he shakes his finger at me and goes, the
- 31:42Speaker 1: only reason I'm here is because these guys think you've
- 31:44Speaker 1: got the greatest thing on the planet, and I want
- 31:46Speaker 1: to see what they're talking about. He goes in there,
- 31:48Speaker 1: gets on the machine, and Joe says, He doesn't even
- 31:51Speaker 1: make it halfway around the first time. He gets halfway
- 31:54Speaker 1: around it, and he says, I'll take this one, and
- 31:57Speaker 1: I'll take it now. And I went, oh, no, you
- 32:01Speaker 1: can't have this one. I said, I've got patience. I'm
- 32:03Speaker 1: treating people. But, Joe, this one was, honestly, it had
- 32:07Speaker 1: wire ties and duct tape and pads hooked on with ropes. And,
- 32:12Speaker 1: you know, it was a real, real prototype. And he
- 32:15Speaker 1: was willing to take that and take it to an
- 32:16Speaker 1: advanced spinal cord surgery center. I'll take this one. And
- 32:19Speaker 1: I said, no, but I will build you one. And
- 32:22Speaker 1: I built him one. That was our first one. And Joe,
- 32:24Speaker 1: they're still using it. I actually met them just the
- 32:29Speaker 1: other day. They're upgrading to another new one. It's constantly
- 32:32Speaker 1: in use. And the testimonials from those people, you know,
- 32:37Speaker 1: me and you may want a six pack. But if
- 32:39Speaker 1: all of a sudden you can now walk down the
- 32:41Speaker 1: stairs or your mother doesn't have to hold you up
- 32:44Speaker 1: when you're standing at the sink. You know, some of
- 32:47Speaker 1: the things that we do that seems so normal for
- 32:49Speaker 1: the rest of the world are really miraculous for those
- 32:52Speaker 1: people in need. And when we can do that, how
- 32:57Speaker 1: could you spend your life doing anything else? What a story.
- 33:00Speaker 2: I mean, talk about confirmation after confirmation. You really had
- 33:05Speaker 2: the calling. Then you had a defining moment, especially with
- 33:09Speaker 2: time with Lori. And then you had the full confirmation
- 33:14Speaker 2: from the hospital. who kept coming back. I mean, talk about.
- 33:18Speaker 1: A full circle there.
- 33:19Speaker 2: Who are your ideal clients aside from hospitals?
- 33:23Speaker 1: Well, again, you do have a good list of questions here, Joe.
- 33:26Speaker 1: So because it does so much for the core, obviously,
- 33:33Speaker 1: people who define their world, athletes on their body, they
- 33:36Speaker 1: want to have the best core they can have. And
- 33:39Speaker 1: so it's not uncommon for a professional athlete or college
- 33:42Speaker 1: university or somebody to make it available to the athletic department.
- 33:47Speaker 1: And it not only does it take care of those
- 33:49Speaker 1: people with, you know, the athletes and takes care of
- 33:52Speaker 1: people with spinal cord injuries. But here's one of the
- 33:54Speaker 1: most important things to me. It's, it prevents spinal cord injury.
- 33:59Speaker 1: You know, I'm all about fixing these people and God
- 34:01Speaker 1: knows they need help and I'll do everything I can
- 34:03Speaker 1: to help it. But if I could have had that
- 34:05Speaker 1: person on the all core before their injury, they might
- 34:08Speaker 1: not have had that injury. So if I'm a football coach,
- 34:12Speaker 1: I mean, Every year, two or three catastrophic spinal cord
- 34:16Speaker 1: injuries happen in college football. Every year. Catastrophic. I mean,
- 34:21Speaker 1: I almost can't live with that thought. In high school,
- 34:24Speaker 1: there's five or ten a year. Catastrophic spinal cord injuries.
- 34:30Speaker 1: So one of my main goals and the people we
- 34:32Speaker 1: really need to get to are the coaches because I
- 34:35Speaker 1: know when I take my child, and if you're my
- 34:37Speaker 1: football coach, I take my child to you and say,
- 34:40Speaker 1: make him a great athlete. But what I don't say, Joe,
- 34:43Speaker 1: is I really say don't hurt him. Don't give him
- 34:45Speaker 1: back to me all broke up. I want you to
- 34:48Speaker 1: make him an athlete. I want you to make him
- 34:50Speaker 1: understand all the values of sportsmanship. But don't put his
- 34:53Speaker 1: life on the line. So if you know that there's
- 34:56Speaker 1: a way to protect your player's spinal cord, wouldn't you
- 35:00Speaker 1: do that? Wouldn't you have an all-core in your room?
- 35:03Speaker 1: And if you didn't, what would you say to that parent? Well,
- 35:07Speaker 1: I know there's a machine that would help them, but
- 35:08Speaker 1: we just didn't buy it. I mean, I don't even
- 35:10Speaker 1: understand that. So that space, that prevention of injury, I
- 35:14Speaker 1: think is huge. So that is definitely a place I'd
- 35:17Speaker 1: love to be in more so because we are in
- 35:20Speaker 1: those spaces. But the real main space would be the
- 35:23Speaker 1: chiropractors and physical therapy clinics that really take care of
- 35:26Speaker 1: spinal cord injuries. They allow their 100 or 200 or
- 35:31Speaker 1: 300 patients to use it. Having one in your home
- 35:34Speaker 1: would be great. And then Joe would be great. And
- 35:37Speaker 1: maybe Joe and his wife would be great. But if
- 35:40Speaker 1: Joe had a clinic, Joe and two or three hundred
- 35:42Speaker 1: people would be great. And so I'm looking for a
- 35:44Speaker 1: bunch of Joes because there's hardly, I mean, we all
- 35:48Speaker 1: make money and the rewards of money are great and
- 35:50Speaker 1: we all need money. Lord knows we all need money.
- 35:53Speaker 1: That's important. But, you know, the reward of helping a
- 35:56Speaker 1: child walk is a reward that you can't spend. And,
- 36:00Speaker 1: you know, so that's all those providers are in that
- 36:04Speaker 1: space that got into that space because they want to
- 36:07Speaker 1: help people. That's who we are. you know, and those
- 36:11Speaker 1: people know who they are. So we would love to
- 36:13Speaker 1: get with more of those. So it's those kind of
- 36:15Speaker 1: those providers. But we have individuals. What we also find
- 36:20Speaker 1: quite frequent is that, here's the bad thing about the system.
- 36:25Speaker 1: If you have a spinal cord injury today, more than
- 36:28Speaker 1: likely in a month or half, your insurance runs out.
- 36:31Speaker 1: You know, you don't have any more money. And all
- 36:33Speaker 1: of a sudden you realize this is a lifetime problem.
- 36:35Speaker 1: You know, what am I going to do? And, you know,
- 36:38Speaker 1: so all these people in that space, Some of those
- 36:40Speaker 1: actually have to get one for their own home. It's
- 36:43Speaker 1: better for them to have one in their house than
- 36:46Speaker 1: to do what they do and travel all over the world.
- 36:50Speaker 1: So we have them in their homes. And although it's
- 36:54Speaker 1: an expensive device in that setting, if you're in that setting,
- 36:57Speaker 1: is there anything more important than your health? I mean,
- 37:00Speaker 1: at the end of the day, it's your quality of life.
- 37:03Speaker 1: And we improve that dramatically across the board. And that's
- 37:07Speaker 1: pretty rewarding. And those are the spaces.
- 37:10Speaker 2: It's invaluable for sure. Now, our listeners are very astute.
- 37:14Speaker 2: And let's say they captured everything you mentioned today and
- 37:18Speaker 2: they get in contact with you and they want to
- 37:20Speaker 2: order one of these. How long is a lead time
- 37:23Speaker 2: before it gets delivered to their property or their home
- 37:26Speaker 2: or their team?
- 37:27Speaker 1: Well, yeah, I'm going to say this because everybody says it.
- 37:30Speaker 1: Four to six weeks, I can have one in your house.
- 37:33Speaker 1: But Joe, I can do that quicker. We don't mess around. Honestly,
- 37:37Speaker 1: I mean, that four to six weeks, if it ends
- 37:38Speaker 1: up getting four to six weeks, we We failed at
- 37:41Speaker 1: our end. You know, we're not going to, you know,
- 37:43Speaker 1: I'm going to tell you four to six weeks. You'll
- 37:45Speaker 1: have it before then.
- 37:46Speaker 2: To tell you the truth, because of the value that
- 37:48Speaker 2: you're offering and the value proposition of the all core 360,
- 37:53Speaker 2: I really thought you were going to say four to
- 37:55Speaker 2: six months.
- 37:55Speaker 1: Yes, training involved. You know, it is an innovative. It's
- 37:59Speaker 1: very unique. So there's a lot to that. I mean,
- 38:02Speaker 1: you buy it, but we're going to show up for
- 38:04Speaker 1: two or three days. We're going to make sure your
- 38:05Speaker 1: staff and you're trained. We just don't throw you out there.
- 38:09Speaker 1: We're part of your team, and we always are. And
- 38:12Speaker 1: so we really partner with our providers. We want to
- 38:16Speaker 1: make sure they know what they're doing. We want to
- 38:18Speaker 1: make sure they offer the best services. And what I found, Joe,
- 38:21Speaker 1: this is one of the most rewarding parts of what
- 38:25Speaker 1: I'm doing now. In a way, I've developed a paintbrush,
- 38:29Speaker 1: and I handed it to a bunch of artists. And
- 38:32Speaker 1: now I've got all these artists in the world painting
- 38:34Speaker 1: their own paintings, and they're painting things that I didn't
- 38:36Speaker 1: think of. And I thought I thought of everything. But
- 38:40Speaker 1: I've got people reaching out to me that said, hey,
- 38:42Speaker 1: have you tried this? Do you know what this is
- 38:44Speaker 1: doing for my cerebral palsy patients? Have you done this?
- 38:48Speaker 1: So all around the world, I've got these brilliant minds
- 38:51Speaker 1: who are taking my device and making it better. So
- 38:55Speaker 1: I know I'll have a lifetime of work because I've
- 38:58Speaker 1: got so many people helping me. And it's because they
- 39:00Speaker 1: love their patients. And that's why I get to work
- 39:03Speaker 1: in that world where, again, we could use a good
- 39:06Speaker 1: windshield wiper. But when you get to people that just
- 39:09Speaker 1: love other people, they're doing it for love. And that's
- 39:15Speaker 1: all you can ask. Absolutely.
- 39:17Speaker 2: And I'm sure the next iteration will be even better
- 39:20Speaker 2: than this one as you start to infuse all of that.
- 39:23Speaker 2: What would you say is the most important takeaway that
- 39:25Speaker 2: you want our listeners to remember from this conversation?
- 39:28Speaker 1: Well, if you're an entrepreneur, don't give up. I would
- 39:30Speaker 1: say from that perspective, that's what it's all about. It's
- 39:34Speaker 1: persistence and focus, and the world will knock you off track.
- 39:38Speaker 1: But if you have a dream, pursue it. You have
- 39:41Speaker 1: your own dream, so I would highly recommend you don't
- 39:43Speaker 1: let that go. Because at the end of life, you're
- 39:46Speaker 1: either going to be proud and that you tried at least,
- 39:49Speaker 1: or you're going to regret that you didn't. So don't
- 39:52Speaker 1: let that happen. So, you know, pursue it. Definitely do
- 39:55Speaker 1: that takeaway. But the other major takeaway is we have
- 39:58Speaker 1: a device that can change the world. We've got a
- 40:01Speaker 1: device that can impact everybody. We all want a better core.
- 40:05Speaker 1: We all need balance and coordination, whether I'm vacuuming the floor,
- 40:08Speaker 1: an Olympic athlete, or have cerebral palsy. You know, we
- 40:12Speaker 1: want the best life possible. And we have a device
- 40:14Speaker 1: that can make you optimal. It's an optimization machine and
- 40:20Speaker 1: it's a longevity device. I mean, it's about longevity. That's
- 40:24Speaker 1: really what it is. We want to be here tomorrow,
- 40:26Speaker 1: but we want to be healthy tomorrow too. So that's
- 40:30Speaker 1: the takeaway.
- 40:31Speaker 2: So where can people connect with you, find out more
- 40:34Speaker 2: about your work and continue this conversation?
- 40:36Speaker 1: You know, the www.allcore360.com is our website. There's a research
- 40:43Speaker 1: and all the people that you might need to talk
- 40:44Speaker 1: to about, you know, the data. But I'm always available.
- 40:48Speaker 1: I mean, I'm scott at allcore360. com. Reach out to me directly.
- 40:53Speaker 1: There's nothing I enjoy more than getting our device in
- 40:56Speaker 1: the hands of somebody who needs it. So let me
- 40:59Speaker 1: help you get it to the ones that you love
- 41:01Speaker 1: or you, you know, whoever needs it. I'm there. I'm available.
