Mm-hmm. sure yeah the time is right around the corner here though so it's exciting all right what are we talking about today Johnna - Mic: I know. Yeah, it is. You're right. Yeah. What are we talking about today? Well, I don't know, because you didn't really tell me about this podcast. So I'm gonna throw it right back at you. What are we talking about? Clint - Mic: What are we talking about? That's usually my line. We have a new thing that we're developing and we'll get into some backstory for it and everything. we are going to offer. Well, let's go into the backstory first. OK, we'll leave the suspense. Yeah. Keep people listening. Johnna - Mic: Yeah. Okay, we'll go into the back story. Yeah. All right. So, I guess some backstory. I in teenage, Jonna world, I was really into watching Gilad on channel 11 or 13. We're in Washington state. So I was on the west side. and also a little bit of Denise Austin. I'm going to age myself here and really enjoyed just being at home and working out my living room when I was a teenager. Also had like the Cindy Crawford workout. Clint - Mic: going to Denise Austin. I'm going to age myself here. And really enjoyed just being at home. Johnna - Mic: video. Okay, these are VHS tapes that we're talking here. In fact, there was one workout with Gilad that I liked so much that I hit play record when you could do that when you didn't need to VHS. Remember when you needed to, to record but then they like upgraded the tech and you could just record on to the one VHS machine anyway. I well Clint - Mic: So you were fancy is what you're saying Johnna - Mic: I don't know about that. I'm pretty sure, you know, lot of people had that tech. ⁓ No, we weren't fancy. Anyway, so I would like rewind play that video over and over again. I loved it so much. And it just came to mind. So we've been thinking about this idea for a really long time. And it kind of came into my scope yesterday when I first woke up in the morning. And I remembered I had that emotion. Clint - Mic: So I would like rewind play that video. Johnna - Mic: of being so excited about workout tapes, right? I know it sounds crazy, but workout tapes. And we've been planning to do an at home workout for people who don't want to leave the home, can't leave the home, stay at home moms or moms that work, that can't get to the gym. Clint - Mic: ⁓ Yeah. Johnna - Mic: or people are having a rest day from their heavy lifting, but still want movement kind of toying with this idea of a class for over a year, a long time. And it just, it's always on like the list of things to do. And then it just gets moved. It constantly gets moved from like board to board in our office. There's like one, two, three, four, five whiteboards and it just gets moved around and Clint - Mic: And it just it's always on like the list of things to do and then it just gets moved It constantly gets moved from like board to board in our office. There's like one two three four five whiteboards and it just gets moved around and We really decided just to create this class and so that's what we're going to talk about today what this class is How to sign up for it all the things Johnna - Mic: We really decided just to create this class. And so that's what we're going to talk about today. What this class is, how to sign up for it, all the things. do you want to take over from here? That's really how it started. Because John has an issue with watching Galad. And Billy Blanks is another one, Tybo. That was another one I had when I was raising kids at home. Clint - Mic: Yeah, I should throw in mine as well. early exposure to VHS, I had it with my VHS, home workout was Jane Fonda. Yeah. Yeah. I feel like she was the OG. When I was just a little guy. But anyway, so. Johnna - Mic: Jane Fonda. Yeah, the OG. think I feel like she was the OG. Yeah. Anyway, yeah, we wanted to get this. Clint - Mic: Yeah, we wanted to get this online class going. Some of the logistics and then we'll touch on some other things. It's gonna all be done through our website, cjelevatedlife.com. And basically what it's gonna be is Monday and Wednesday at 7.30 a.m. Pacific time. We're gonna go in there and do a 30 minute workout. Like John has said, it's great for beginners. It's great for people that just want to move. Somebody that's looking to get started and still, you you don't really know. We've talked ad nauseum about there's so much stuff online to try to figure out how to get going. So the idea behind this for that group of you all listening is just, this is just a way to just get going. Johnna - Mic: Yeah. Yeah, get started. usually when you know, I've been teaching classes for like a long time, over a decade now, it started with being a coach, and then moving on to doing free classes at the high school, and then going to the warehouse gym up in Oroville and doing classes and then opening my own gym, all the things and ⁓ Usually when we when I start a class, it starts at a starting point and then we we progress naturally. And so if you are a beginner who has just been like waiting for something like this because you don't want to go to the gym, or you can't again, like I said earlier, or you're a busy mom, this is absolutely perfect for you because you start we're starting with mobility, core strength. Clint - Mic: it starts at a starting point and then we progress naturally. And so if you are a beginner who has just been like waiting for something like this because you don't want to go to the gym or you can't again, like I said earlier, or you're a busy mom, this is absolutely perfect for you because you start, we're starting with mobility, core strength. And so if you are a beginner who has just been waiting for something like this because you don't want to go to the gym or you can't again, like I said earlier, ⁓ or you're a busy mom, ⁓ this is absolutely perfect for because you start, we're starting mobility, ⁓ core strength. ⁓ Johnna - Mic: so if you are a beginner who has just been like waiting for something like this because you don't want to go to the gym, or you can't again, like I said earlier, or you're a busy mom, this is absolutely perfect for you because you start we're starting with mobility, core strength. Clint - Mic: strength and then some Pilates and yoga and then we'll build as strength and then some Pilates and yoga and then we'll build as Johnna - Mic: body weight, strength, then some Pilates and yoga. And then we'll build as, you know, as we all build together into bands, body weight, strength, then some Pilates and yoga. And then we'll build as, you know, as we all build together into bands, which you're a big band guy. Clint - Mic: as we all build together into bands, as we all build together into bands, which you're a big band guy. I am, I love them. I think they're so underutilized and underappreciated. Yeah, for sure. I would say, because it just, people have it in their heads that it's just like, ⁓ that isn't even really a workout. But if you use bands right, I mean, there's lots of times where I leave there feeling the exact same way as when I was pushing heavy plates around. Yeah. Johnna - Mic: Yeah, for sure Yeah, yeah. Clint - Mic: So bands are awesome and we'll get into bands a lot. The cool thing though is that as part of your membership, you're getting you get access to the live classes, but you'll also have access to all of the library, all of the archived workouts. So as we progress through, if you're getting in on this later or you feel like, you know, I just want to go back to some of those other workouts or whatever the case may be, you'll have access to Johnna - Mic: Yeah. ⁓ Clint - Mic: all of our past workouts. Johnna - Mic: Yeah, and the other cool thing is if you can't join us live at 730 on Monday and Wednesday, you can hit the replay, right? So let's say Monday evening works better for you or Thursday afternoon works better for you. Whatever that is, it's not like, okay, we go live and then that's it. It's gone forever. We're pushing record play for you. Clint - Mic: day afternoon, looks better for you. Whatever that is, it's not like, okay, we go live and then that's it. It's gone forever. We're pushing record play for you. Johnna - Mic: for you. So you can go back and you know, like Clint said, have all the archives. This is really exciting. I think this is a part of fitness that is ⁓ Clint - Mic: exciting. I think this is a part of fitness that is, you know, was something before and maybe has gone to the wayside where everything's in person and that's great. But for those people who really just don't have the time and it needs to fit their schedule and it's a 30 minute class. So everyone has 30 minutes. Johnna - Mic: you know, was something before and maybe has gone to the wayside where everything's in person and that's great. But for those people who really just don't have the time and it needs to fit their schedule and it's a 30 minute class. So everyone has 30 minutes to dedicate to themselves, to their health and fitness. And if you don't, then this is your like wake up call. Clint - Mic: dedicate to themselves, to their health and fitness. And if you don't, then this is your like wake up call to create that time, right? For yourself, for the betterment of everything. Because we always talk about how fitness is a gateway drug to excellence in your entire life. This is a way that you can have it come right into your home. Yeah. Yeah. Johnna - Mic: to create that time, right for yourself for the betterment of everything because we always talk about how fitness is a gateway drug to excellence in your entire life. This is a way that you could have it come right into your home. Yeah. Clint - Mic: One thing that really has spurred this on or helped us to format it the way that we are formatting it, I guess you could say, is the recognition of really what Jonna is the baseline of, but the community within elevated fitness. So for those of you outside the area, that's the brick and mortar gym that we have. And it... Johnna - Mic: Yeah. Clint - Mic: It's incredible. mean, we talk so often about all the cool things with just with the different gym members and interactions that happen, know, friendships that get made and. Johnna - Mic: Yeah. Yeah. Clint - Mic: And we're trying, so with this, we're trying to replicate that as much as we can in an online, you know, if you're stuck at home or you're just not able to get to the gym or you live long ways away from a gym, whatever that might be. So it's really gonna feel like more than just, okay, this is how I, these are my movements for the next 30 minutes and that's it. We really want to have that as much as we can, that same community feel. So another thing that we're gonna be doing along with the live and being humble, Johnna - Mic: Yeah. Yeah. Clint - Mic: to live with us. ⁓ Coming soon. After we launch this, we'll have a Discord community. So basically what that is is like a big chat room and it can be separated out into different areas so you can have ongoing conversation with everybody in the community. You can ask questions, you can talk about your wins, different, you know, maybe you altered a movement a little bit and it really was super cool for you. So it's like, hey, this is what I did. Or I didn't have, you know, one of the things we might use is like a broom for stick work. Johnna - Mic: Yeah. Right. I didn't have a broom for some reason. here's what I used. Yeah. And this worked out really great. Clint - Mic: I didn't have a broom for some reason. So here's what I used and this worked out really great or I added in, you know, grabbing milk jugs. And so I had a little bit of weight with it because I whatever those things might be. So it's more, it goes beyond just the, the Denise Austin, ⁓ right? Did I name that nail that name right? Or the Jane Fonda or whatever, where you're just watching something. It really is more of a, an interactive experience. Johnna - Mic: Sure. Totally. Yeah. Yeah, you did. Yeah. Yeah, because community is important, right? It absolutely is important. And, you know, we talked about it with the elevated fitness. I've seen some of the most amazing things happen in classes where people are building friendships, not just in the gym, but then also carrying that outside of the gym and people that wouldn't have normally met right outside in their whatever world they're living in outside of the gym. And that's been really interesting. Clint - Mic: Because community is important, right? It absolutely is important. and people that wouldn't have normally met, right? Outside in their whatever world they're living in outside of the gym. And that's been a really interesting. Johnna - Mic: and lovely to watch. And because of the culture at our gym, it's very much encouraging and welcoming and loving. That is the same vibe that we plan on, you know, Clint - Mic: of the culture at our gym, it's very much encouraging and welcoming and loving. That is the same vibe that we plan on, you know, navigating from in the Discord. And Clinton and I will be active in the Discord. And also on top of that, ⁓ Johnna - Mic: navigating from ⁓ in the discord and Clinton I will be active in the discord. And also on top of that, ⁓ we are going to be doing a live question and answer session once a month in the discord. So if you have any questions, right regarding nutrition, or whatever that is, we'll be at live once a month and answering those questions. So Clint - Mic: We are going to be doing a live question and answer session once a month in the Discord. So if you have any questions regarding nutrition or whatever that is, we'll be live once a month and answering those questions. So I'm really excited for this, It's so much fun to build a class and to see it grow. Johnna - Mic: I'm really excited for this. Honestly, like this is it's so much fun to build a class and to see it. grow and to see people make the connections. So the fact that we can bring this online is just really just makes my heart really happy. I feel like it's coming full circle. Like 16 year old Jonna is really stoked right now. It's like this is going to be fun. So when are we starting this? Real quick though I did want to mention. Clint - Mic: and to see people make the connections. So the fact that we can bring this online is just really just makes my heart really happy. I feel like it's coming full circle. Like 16 year old Jonathan is really stoked right now. It's like this is gonna be fun. So when do we start? Real quick though, I did want to mention something before we get back. I know I already teased the logistics and then we moved away, but. For those of you listening that might be thinking, I'm not even a beginner. Like beginner makes me nervous. You've already used words I don't know or you know, I'm not comfortable doing. We're very aware of that, very cognizant of those concerns. And so we're gonna go out of our way to be able to show, okay, like as an example, here's a body weight squat. Here's a way you can modify it if, you know, if even that is too much for you right now or you're struggling Johnna - Mic: Yeah. Yeah. Clint - Mic: because you've got knee mobility or hip mobility issues that you need to work on. ⁓ Here's some modifications that you can do. On the other hand, if it's like, okay, this is getting pretty easy. I don't know if I'm quite ready for bands yet, but this is getting pretty good. Well, here's some modifications you can do to make it a little bit more difficult, little more challenging. ⁓ again, just with the idea of it not just being a pre-recorded workout that hopefully it works for you, we're really going Johnna - Mic: Yeah. make it a little bit more difficult. So again, just with the idea of. Clint - Mic: to try to put on our transformation coach hats and tailor as much as we can to a wide variety of ⁓ levels, I guess. Johnna - Mic: Yeah. And not to mention, know, ⁓ when I run a class, I am not quiet. Like you're going to get tips and tricks and Clint - Mic: and tricks and all of the things that, you know, Clint and I will be conversing as we are teaching you these moves and giving you, know, tidbits through that class that you can then take into your everyday life so that you can stack habits, right? Because we talk about that all the time, the importance of stacking habits. This is a perfect opportunity for you to start that first habit. Johnna - Mic: all of the things that, you know, Clint and I will be conversing as we are teaching you these moves and giving you, you know, tidbits through that class that you can then take into your everyday life so that you can stack habits, right? Cause we talk about that all the time, the importance of stacking habits. This is a perfect opportunity for you to start that first habit of showing up for yourself twice Clint - Mic: of showing up for yourself twice a week. The other thing that's super cool about this is that let's say there's a person that's like, okay, it's twice a week, but I really want to work out three or four times a week, right, to get started. Like I'm feeling like I'm, you can just rewind play, right? Rewind play because getting better and better at movements is what... Johnna - Mic: week. The other thing that's super cool about this is that let's say there's a person that's like, okay, it's twice a week, but I really want to work out three or four times a week, right to get started. Like I'm feeling like I'm you can just rewind play. Right rewind play because getting better and better at movements is what fitness is all about. Honestly, I know there's a lot of like no do this new cool move and do this. But really you just want to stick to the basics get really good at them and then move on. And so we're going to incorporate that mindset into ⁓ this class as well. Clint - Mic: fitness is all about, honestly. know there's a lot of like, no, do this new cool move and do this. But really, you just want to stick to the basics, get really good at them and then move on. And so we're going to incorporate that mindset into this class. Johnna - Mic: So the logistic. ⁓ Clint - Mic: So the logistics, like I mentioned, everything is done through the website, CJElevatedLife.com. You can go there and toward the middle of the homepage, there's a place where you, that gives a little bit of information, kind of recaps what we're talking here. You can sign up and that'll take you to a quick, easy sign up page, or you can just log in if you've already signed up. From there, you'll go to a member page and we're gonna actually be streaming or be live on YouTube. So the YouTube thing is right there. So then once you're in, you just hit play when we're at 730 on Monday or Wednesday, or that will be the last one that we did. So there's always one there for you. Then there's a link to the library, to the archives, and you can go in and find whatever you want. How much does this cost Clint? Johnna - Mic: How much does this cost Clint? Dude 30 bucks a month for eight 30 minute classes like Clint - Mic: It is going to be $30 a month. Dude, $30 a month for eight? like Bargain Tuesday guys and a Discord. Like we want to make this available to the person who's like really wanting to work out but has a lot of different limitations. Johnna - Mic: Bargain Tuesday, and a Discord. Like, we want to make this available to the person who's like really wanting to work out, but it has a lot of different limitations. And you can invest $30 in yourself a month. You can do that. I believe in you. That is something that... ⁓ Clint - Mic: you can invest $30 in yourself a month. You can do that. I believe in you. That is something that, yeah, everyone should be doing. It's 30 bucks, right? It's not 150 or whatever some of these other courses are. So anyway, yeah, super exciting. Yeah, we are really excited about it.
