- 1:47Speaker 1: I get to uh not six more months of the
- 1:51Speaker 1: oral antibiotics and then after that I should be free
- 1:54Speaker 1: and clear. They want to make sure because getting an
- 1:59Speaker 1: infection and that deep into the bone and everything else
- 2:02Speaker 1: where they found the E. Coli. They want to make
- 2:06Speaker 1: sure it's gone and stay is gone. They don't want
- 2:08Speaker 1: to sit there and one cell start replicating and a
- 2:11Speaker 1: month and a half later you got a problem. So
- 2:13Speaker 1: they said it's one hundred percent successful if you do
- 2:17Speaker 1: the antibiotics for six months. So yes, I'll be doing
- 2:20Speaker 1: the antibiotics for six.
- 2:21Speaker 2: Months months exactly. You know what I'm saying. And for
- 2:24Speaker 2: those you know, you know, when I was younger, this
- 2:27Speaker 2: is what I would I feel better. Oh, I don't
- 2:29Speaker 2: need the pills. That that is not not.
- 2:32Speaker 1: The way to handle it these days. No, yeah, you take.
- 2:35Speaker 2: All of them, all of them, all of them.
- 2:39Speaker 1: Well, you know, trying to get done with this take
- 2:41Speaker 1: one exactly.
- 2:44Speaker 2: What Nick with the pickline? Were you having any really
- 2:48Speaker 2: side effects from that? Uh? You know that we've never
- 2:50Speaker 2: really covered if you were having like you know, most
- 2:52Speaker 2: people when you're taking an antibotics, you're tired, you're exhausted. Sometimes
- 2:55Speaker 2: your stomach's upset, you know.
- 2:57Speaker 1: I actually got pretty lucky with it. I had Greek yogurt.
- 3:04Speaker 1: I had one of those every day to help with
- 3:07Speaker 1: my stomach, and probatics and your stomach and stuff like that.
- 3:10Speaker 1: The culture from that, so that helped quite a bit.
- 3:14Speaker 1: So I didn't have a whole lot of problems with that.
- 3:18Speaker 1: I did get a little red when I got out
- 3:19Speaker 1: my sun really fast, oh yeah, yeah, so but that's okay.
- 3:25Speaker 1: I mean I limited it and I was smart about it.
- 3:29Speaker 1: So yeah, and then when I did get tired, I
- 3:34Speaker 1: just took a nap other than when I went to
- 3:38Speaker 1: work and stuff like that. But that's what caffeine's for.
- 3:41Speaker 1: So and of course I really enjoyed good coffee, So
- 3:46Speaker 1: I had a couple couple of good cups of coffee
- 3:48Speaker 1: and got me through the rest of the day and
- 3:50Speaker 1: it was fine. Yeah, so things have been going really good.
- 3:58Speaker 1: Cardiologist was like, hey, I'm going to send you for
- 4:02Speaker 1: one more test and after that have a great life
- 4:06Speaker 1: because I don't know what problems you you were having,
- 4:11Speaker 1: but they're gone and you're doing great. So I'm like, sweet,
- 4:15Speaker 1: So that's good news.
- 4:16Speaker 2: Uh yeah, and that was just undue stress. Brother. That
- 4:19Speaker 2: was the wedding, the surgery, you know what I'm saying
- 4:22Speaker 2: for those you know, just a callback. Uh. Nick had
- 4:25Speaker 2: a little little blip right during his son's right before
- 4:29Speaker 2: the Sun's wedding. But like I said, just you know,
- 4:32Speaker 2: the leg was infected, which we didn't know yet. Yeah,
- 4:36Speaker 2: the wedding, walking moving and then what what was it?
- 4:39Speaker 1: A four hour drive four and a half hour truck
- 4:41Speaker 1: drive down or six hour drive down and six hour
- 4:44Speaker 1: drive back. So exactly I pushed it a little too hard,
- 4:48Speaker 1: too fast after surgery, But yeah, you were I wasn't.
- 4:52Speaker 1: I wasn't missing this wedding for anything.
- 4:54Speaker 2: There's no nothing that was missing exactly exactly. So that
- 4:59Speaker 2: was there Nick the whole time. So it was you know,
- 5:01Speaker 2: like I said, it was just like you I could
- 5:03Speaker 2: see him pushing. But also what was going on. You know,
- 5:06Speaker 2: this is what's in a lifetime opportunity here. Yeah, like
- 5:09Speaker 2: just like I said, nothing was going to make it
- 5:11Speaker 2: miss but no, you know what I'm saying. So that's
- 5:13Speaker 2: everything sounds good. You know what I'm saying.
- 5:15Speaker 1: Yeah, No, it's good. It's yeah, all that stuff's going good.
- 5:19Speaker 1: I go see the uh, the the ortho Monday, They're
- 5:27Speaker 1: gonna look at me again, go through some stuff. But
- 5:29Speaker 1: all that stuff looks good. I'm progressing pretty well. I'm
- 5:32Speaker 1: starting to get more aggressive now that I don't have
- 5:35Speaker 1: an infection, yep, because you can't get real aggressive with
- 5:39Speaker 1: rehab when you have an infection. So I did do
- 5:43Speaker 1: some stuff, but not nearly as much as I should
- 5:45Speaker 1: have been doing, and because I just didn't want to
- 5:47Speaker 1: get wore outed and want to get tired. But like
- 5:51Speaker 1: i've been. The pet comes to my house two days
- 5:55Speaker 1: a week from the insurance, which is awesome. And then
- 5:58Speaker 1: like yesterday, I drove there's a park not too far
- 6:03Speaker 1: from the house that has a water detention basin and
- 6:06Speaker 1: they got a nice grassy hill that you can walk up. Yeah,
- 6:15Speaker 1: that's like one hundred and twenty yards. And then I
- 6:18Speaker 1: came back down the hill as fast as I could,
- 6:20Speaker 1: trying to keep my balance and stuff like that. One
- 6:22Speaker 1: World's power works your glutes really good. The other tries
- 6:26Speaker 1: to lengthen your stride as much as you can to
- 6:28Speaker 1: get to walking normal. I had to learn how to
- 6:31Speaker 1: walk all over again, so still in the process of that,
- 6:36Speaker 1: but I did four runs of that in total. And
- 6:38Speaker 1: then I also did like they have some steps at
- 6:41Speaker 1: that park, and I sidestepped up the steps, you know,
- 6:45Speaker 1: all the way up the steps like ten steps and
- 6:48Speaker 1: then twenty feet and then ten steps and then back
- 6:51Speaker 1: down and then turn around and do it again. I
- 6:53Speaker 1: did that like a couple of times. By the end
- 6:55Speaker 1: of that, I was like, Okay, I need to be
- 6:56Speaker 1: able to get in the truck and yea. That was
- 6:59Speaker 1: a good way to start the day. And then the
- 7:02Speaker 1: rest of the day after that turned out to be
- 7:04Speaker 1: pretty cool. Mitchell Hooper lives here now and ended up
- 7:10Speaker 1: meeting him at the UFC Fit Jim and he went
- 7:14Speaker 1: through his workout and then there was a few things
- 7:17Speaker 1: because he's a he does PT he's an expert at it.
- 7:23Speaker 1: Super smart guy.
- 7:24Speaker 2: And then he graduated with it. Yeah, and also too
- 7:29Speaker 2: for those you know, this is a super callback for
- 7:33Speaker 2: Legends of Iron and one of our first podcasts with
- 7:36Speaker 2: him where he actually had his own facility in Canada
- 7:40Speaker 2: and was getting ready to open, but then world Strongest
- 7:42Speaker 2: Man just took off.
- 7:44Speaker 1: Oh yeah, then he just yeah, just started laying the
- 7:49Speaker 1: wood to everybody. Yeah, but so we did that. He
- 7:54Speaker 1: had me do some things for my hips there, which
- 7:58Speaker 1: is awesome. So you'll see that. He'll post that up.
- 8:01Speaker 1: And then he had to carry me a little bit,
- 8:03Speaker 1: which is pretty funny, and then went over his house
- 8:08Speaker 1: and had dinner and stuff like that. So it was
- 8:11Speaker 1: it was pretty cool, unbelievable, just great, dude. It was
- 8:16Speaker 1: a lot of fun. So that's pretty cool. And yeah,
- 8:22Speaker 1: so I like today, I went to work and was
- 8:24Speaker 1: walking around and I just keep feeling a little bit
- 8:27Speaker 1: stronger each day I get on Trap. I got an
- 8:31Speaker 1: eighty pound kettlebell, so I'll watch Trap and when it's
- 8:35Speaker 1: not too busy on Trap, I'll try to stretch with
- 8:37Speaker 1: it as much as I can and force stretching so
- 8:40Speaker 1: that I can, you know, get more full range of motion,
- 8:44Speaker 1: just a little bit, a little bit faster. Nothing because
- 8:48Speaker 1: it's weird. I'm stretching with an eighty pound Ketabelle and
- 8:53Speaker 1: I go to pull up on it. It's like, I'm like, oh, okay,
- 8:57Speaker 1: there's still a lot of strike there. It's just different
- 8:59Speaker 1: because not used to the motion. But no, so it
- 9:02Speaker 1: felt really good. That's good. Did that stuff and then
- 9:07Speaker 1: left work and now here we.
- 9:09Speaker 2: Are exactly exactly Well, that's good right there. You know,
- 9:13Speaker 2: I'm saying, we got quite a bit covered. No, you
- 9:15Speaker 2: want to get into questions.
- 9:17Speaker 1: Questions, Yeah, let's start the questions. Question one. The chemistry
- 9:23Speaker 1: between Eddie, between you, Eddie, Brian and Robert overst was
- 9:31Speaker 1: one of the highlights of the show. What was it
- 9:35Speaker 1: like spending that much time together off camera and who
- 9:38Speaker 1: kept everyone laughing the most? Well, laughing the most would
- 9:42Speaker 1: probably it's close. It's seriously close, because everybody kind of
- 9:49Speaker 1: kept everybody laughing. But Robert and Eddie were neck and
- 9:52Speaker 1: neck as far as keeping on Saul laughing, I'd probably
- 9:56Speaker 1: say Robert, you know, probably kept U laughing a little
- 10:01Speaker 1: bit more then Eddie. But Eddie was right there. He
- 10:05Speaker 1: really was. Eddie farting in the van was probably the
- 10:11Speaker 1: roughest part, but he did. He mostly did that during
- 10:14Speaker 1: the during the pilot when we were in Canada doing it.
- 10:20Speaker 1: There and he must have let like seven or eight
- 10:23Speaker 1: go and then hot boxed us and thank god, I
- 10:26Speaker 1: was all the way in the back and Brian was
- 10:28Speaker 1: getting mad and he's like, you do that again. I'm
- 10:30Speaker 1: gonna putch you right in the face. He's like, I'm
- 10:33Speaker 1: gonna get up and kick your ass. He goes, no,
- 10:34Speaker 1: you're gonna be knocked out. You're not gonna kick anybody's ass,
- 10:37Speaker 1: and just watching.
- 10:37Speaker 2: Him argument back and forth with hilarious. Yeah.
- 10:40Speaker 1: But of course they just kept like coming after one
- 10:44Speaker 1: another and laughing and stuff like that. But there was
- 10:47Speaker 1: just so much funny stuff. I mean, there really was.
- 10:50Speaker 1: I mean, and then Ian was hilarious. The the average man.
- 10:58Speaker 1: He was hilarious. Guy sound guy, sound guy. He was
- 11:03Speaker 1: a sound guy. So yeah, Ian no camera camera, camera,
- 11:08Speaker 1: camera guy. The sound guy is actually like a musical genius,
- 11:12Speaker 1: which was kind of crazy. We're all kind of like
- 11:15Speaker 1: looking at him. He's kind of awkward and you know,
- 11:18Speaker 1: just just kind of different guy. And then all of
- 11:21Speaker 1: a sudden, we're in I think we're I want to
- 11:27Speaker 1: say we were in Wyoming and we were upstairs and
- 11:31Speaker 1: there was access to a piano and he just starts
- 11:34Speaker 1: playing the piano we're just like watching the guy. It's
- 11:37Speaker 1: just an amazing, unbelievably musician.
- 11:40Speaker 2: Yeah.
- 11:42Speaker 1: But and then and then both of our producers were
- 11:46Speaker 1: absolutely and utterly hilarious. I mean there's just I mean,
- 11:53Speaker 1: the guy did the first season of Duck Dynasty. I mean, yeah,
- 11:56Speaker 1: Rob was just like too funny. He really was, and
- 12:01Speaker 1: he didn't pull a lot of punches, so it was
- 12:03Speaker 1: just funny go back. So you know, the whole thing was,
- 12:10Speaker 1: you know, just so much fun. I mean it's just
- 12:13Speaker 1: if we ever got the opportunity to again, I think
- 12:15Speaker 1: all four of us would do it again for sure.
- 12:17Speaker 1: I just need to heal up a little bit more exactly.
- 12:21Speaker 1: But yeah, so there you go. So I'd say Robert
- 12:26Speaker 1: was probably first, and then Eddie was a very close second,
- 12:32Speaker 1: and then Brian, and then probably me because I don't
- 12:36Speaker 1: joke around as much as those guys do. Sitting my energy.
- 12:43Speaker 1: Question two, Thank you so much for consistently sharing your
- 12:47Speaker 1: videos and posts. Because of family members of mine recently
- 12:51Speaker 1: went through surgery as well, your courage and recovery journey
- 12:55Speaker 1: has helped us tremendously awesome. That's awesome. I've come to
- 12:59Speaker 1: realize that independent and self reliance are incredibly important. Yes,
- 13:04Speaker 1: they are, especially when facing illness. Oh absolutely. When we
- 13:09Speaker 1: often assume that during life's major milestones birth, aging, sickness,
- 13:16Speaker 1: and death, there will always be someone by our side, yeah,
- 13:20Speaker 1: to help bear the weight. But in reality, ones on
- 13:24Speaker 1: mindset plays the true leading role. Oh yeah, that's true,
- 13:30Speaker 1: because if it's wowies me and everything is weways me,
- 13:33Speaker 1: you're gonna have a lot of problems with it, you
- 13:35Speaker 1: really are. If you come out there going okay, nothing's
- 13:39Speaker 1: gonna hold me down. Yep, this is gonna suck, it's
- 13:42Speaker 1: not gonna feel good, and it's gonna be really painful.
- 13:44Speaker 1: But you know what, I'm happy to be here. I'm
- 13:46Speaker 1: happy to be alive. I'm gonna go in this with
- 13:48Speaker 1: a good attitude because six months from now I'm gonna
- 13:52Speaker 1: have my whole entire life back. And that's just the
- 13:55Speaker 1: way you gotta look at it.
- 13:56Speaker 2: That's it.
- 13:58Speaker 1: So yeah, mindset plays a huge role in it. I
- 14:01Speaker 1: mean you're going there with a positive mindset and a
- 14:04Speaker 1: successful mindset. Yeah, you're you're going to do really well.
- 14:09Speaker 1: Just like money, you bring nothing into this world and
- 14:11Speaker 1: you take nothing out of this world when you leave.
- 14:13Speaker 1: Oh yeah, that's true if you focus too much on
- 14:17Speaker 1: emotional attachments instead of seriously think about how to rehabilitate
- 14:22Speaker 1: or even if an addition is untreatable, we should still
- 14:28Speaker 1: think positively. Oh yeah, sure, and then the face of
- 14:31Speaker 1: the final chapter of our life with optimism, treating every
- 14:35Speaker 1: person and every living thing with a kind heart. Yeah,
- 14:39Speaker 1: oh no, absolutely. I mean the thing is we're blessed
- 14:44Speaker 1: to be here. So if you know, if it's that
- 14:48Speaker 1: time and you know it's coming, let everybody know, you know,
- 14:53Speaker 1: let everyman know how you feel about them and let
- 14:54Speaker 1: them give them your love and you know, wishing the
- 14:59Speaker 1: best with what's what they have in their future and
- 15:02Speaker 1: stuff like that. So yeah, you definitely, you definitely want
- 15:10Speaker 1: to go into like anything with a positive mindset, be like, okay,
- 15:14Speaker 1: well now now I get to say goodbye everybody, I
- 15:20Speaker 1: get to you know, let everybody know I love them.
- 15:22Speaker 1: Something's happened fast and you just don't know. But in
- 15:26Speaker 1: this situation, this is somebody who would know, you know,
- 15:29Speaker 1: that the time's coming due which a lot of people
- 15:33Speaker 1: they're driving down the road get hit by a car
- 15:34Speaker 1: and that's the end of it. You know.
- 15:36Speaker 2: Yeah, you just don't think about your kidney situation, you
- 15:39Speaker 2: would have never know.
- 15:40Speaker 1: Oh yeah, if I wouldn't dropped that bar on my chest,
- 15:45Speaker 1: we wouldn't have found it and my kid you probably
- 15:48Speaker 1: just would have burst one day and that'd have been that.
- 15:51Speaker 1: So take the time and let people know you love them,
- 15:55Speaker 1: you know, let your family know you love them, let
- 15:57Speaker 1: your friends know you care about them, stuff like that.
- 15:59Speaker 1: And you know, because you just never know when, but
- 16:03Speaker 1: always go after everything in life and in death with
- 16:05Speaker 1: a positive mindset. It's going to make everything a lot
- 16:08Speaker 1: better instead of you know, you know, everything is just
- 16:12Speaker 1: sad and gloomy and depressing. It's now you're just onto
- 16:16Speaker 1: the next thing exactly. So pretty pretty simple. Hope that
- 16:21Speaker 1: helped and answered some things there. Yeah, but yeah, I mean,
- 16:26Speaker 1: if you have a positive mindset going into anything, literally anything,
- 16:30Speaker 1: it's always going to be better. And it's it really is.
- 16:35Speaker 1: People get a lot more with honey than they do
- 16:40Speaker 1: with pooh. It's it's that simple, I mean, you know.
- 16:44Speaker 2: Yeah, and if you start your day off positive, it
- 16:47Speaker 2: ends positive, you know, so you you a lot of times,
- 16:51Speaker 2: you know, and I say this all the time with
- 16:52Speaker 2: everyone that I talk with too, is like, if you
- 16:55Speaker 2: let negative in, then you will be negative, but if
- 16:58Speaker 2: you keep positive. Guess what, you know what I'm saying,
- 17:02Speaker 2: even if that negative comes in, you still spin it
- 17:04Speaker 2: to a positive and you're still on top, you know
- 17:07Speaker 2: what I mean. That's the main thing.
- 17:09Speaker 1: Right because you never know when you get hit with
- 17:12Speaker 1: stuff all day and sometimes you're you're like, well, no,
- 17:16Speaker 1: we're probably not going to do that. But you know,
- 17:21Speaker 1: if you want to do that, here's where I can
- 17:23Speaker 1: help you. And here's where I can support you as
- 17:25Speaker 1: much as I can. But I completely do you disagree
- 17:28Speaker 1: with this situation doesn't mean they don't love you. It
- 17:32Speaker 1: just means I just don't just disagree with the situation
- 17:34Speaker 1: you're gonna kind of walk into and you know, I'm
- 17:37Speaker 1: trying try. You try to warn somebody, you know, hey,
- 17:41Speaker 1: here are the repercussions, and if they don't want to
- 17:45Speaker 1: listen and don't want to understand what it is, then
- 17:50Speaker 1: they don't understand. But you still love them, you still
- 17:54Speaker 1: support them.
- 17:54Speaker 2: It's just and you did your best.
- 17:57Speaker 1: Yeah, you know what I'm saying that.
- 17:58Speaker 2: That's exactly what it is. At the end of the day,
- 18:00Speaker 2: I've done as much as I can and as much
- 18:02Speaker 2: as I'm willing to do in that situation, and that's
- 18:05Speaker 2: just how it goes because guess what then, and that's
- 18:08Speaker 2: everybody in life, you know what I'm saying, that's everybody
- 18:11Speaker 2: in life.
- 18:12Speaker 1: Yep. So and then you get the friends that give
- 18:16Speaker 1: you a gut check exactly exactly, U Nick. So it's like, yeah,
- 18:25Speaker 1: thanks man, but.
- 18:26Speaker 2: Yeah, you know exactly.
- 18:29Speaker 1: So it's just it's good. I mean, it's going to
- 18:33Speaker 1: everything with the positive attitude. It's going to make the
- 18:35Speaker 1: outcome always better. Even when it's a bad outcome, it's
- 18:39Speaker 1: still going to make the outcome better. It really is,
- 18:41Speaker 1: exactly exactly. So that's it.
- 18:48Speaker 2: Well a horrible well still you do good impressions. I
- 18:53Speaker 2: don't care what anybody says. Your pressures are always spot up.
- 18:56Speaker 1: Well, thank you. I appreciate that. Well.
- 18:59Speaker 2: The the only thing I've really seen this week happening
- 19:02Speaker 2: is we got UFC three thirty three happening in Philadelphia.
- 19:06Speaker 2: Islam Makacheff is defending his walterweight title against Ian Machado. Gary. Uh,
- 19:13Speaker 2: I have a lot of thoughts on this fight.
- 19:16Speaker 1: Okay, because because uh, I've been a little busy this week.
- 19:22Speaker 2: Oh yeah, well yeah, Islam Makacheff, Uh, He's He's held
- 19:27Speaker 2: this title for quite some time. Ian is a great fighter.
- 19:33Speaker 2: Ian is a young fighter. He's gone through his he's
- 19:36Speaker 2: gone through the reins, He's fight everyone. He's needed a
- 19:38Speaker 2: fight to get this title fight. So this title fight
- 19:40Speaker 2: is well earned, well deserved. He just didn't get handed
- 19:44Speaker 2: this fight. They the UFC built him up, and yeah,
- 19:47Speaker 2: he earned it, and the UFC built him up in
- 19:50Speaker 2: the way you're supposed to build up fighters and not
- 19:52Speaker 2: just throw them to the slaughter. That's just that Ian
- 19:55Speaker 2: Micha Gary is the same thing with Patty Pimlet. Patty
- 19:57Speaker 2: Pimlet is the same thing. He's on a big role too,
- 20:00Speaker 2: but he was built up correctly. He was built up slowly.
- 20:03Speaker 2: He just didn't have a spectacular fight and they got
- 20:05Speaker 2: thrown in the championship fight. So that is something that's
- 20:08Speaker 2: really nice about UFC right now, because I don't know
- 20:11Speaker 2: how many times I seen someone go from a spectacular
- 20:14Speaker 2: knockout to a UFC title fight and then getting demolished
- 20:19Speaker 2: and not perform. Yeah, you're going from you you know
- 20:22Speaker 2: a and you know luck's luck. But at the same time,
- 20:25Speaker 2: you championship caliber, championship caliber.
- 20:27Speaker 1: Oh yeah, and Ian.
- 20:29Speaker 2: Machitle Gary is a champion caliber fighter, but Makacheff is
- 20:36Speaker 2: a beast. You know, I don't know Ian. I've not
- 20:41Speaker 2: seen much of Ian's ground game because is gonna grab him,
- 20:46Speaker 2: tie him up, and then ride him the entire that
- 20:49Speaker 2: that's just his mo o. That's just what it's gonna be,
- 20:52Speaker 2: you know what I'm saying. But like I said, Gary
- 20:55Speaker 2: has good defense, he has good takedown defense. But we're
- 21:00Speaker 2: definitely gonna see what's gonna happen in this fight in Philadelphia,
- 21:03Speaker 2: you know what I'm say, Because.
- 21:03Speaker 1: If he can stiff him on the takedowns and then
- 21:06Speaker 1: it ends up staying staying up, then could be a
- 21:09Speaker 1: whole different outcome.
- 21:11Speaker 2: And one of the things too, is is like with
- 21:13Speaker 2: Mack and Chef, I don't see him. I like maybe
- 21:15Speaker 2: one or two more fights in him left before he
- 21:17Speaker 2: retires and takes off to the sunset. So if if
- 21:21Speaker 2: Ian Gary beats him here, I see you know, Mick
- 21:27Speaker 2: and Cheff retiring maybe after this fight. If that happens.
- 21:31Speaker 2: You know what I'm saying, because Mackef's held this title
- 21:33Speaker 2: for quite some time and you know what I'm saying,
- 21:37Speaker 2: and he's but also to Mackchef could easily go up
- 21:40Speaker 2: and wait class the next class. You know what I'm saying,
- 21:43Speaker 2: because yeah, he absolutely could, you know what I'm saying,
- 21:48Speaker 2: because this could be one of those things that that
- 21:50Speaker 2: that that shows like, hey, I've done this, because you know,
- 21:53Speaker 2: he's had some stomach as you see at that he
- 21:55Speaker 2: had long COVID. There's been a lot of things that's
- 21:58Speaker 2: happened with him, and yep, exactly, you know what I'm saying.
- 22:03Speaker 2: So it's one of those things. It's gonna be. It's
- 22:06Speaker 2: gonna be on Paramount Plus. So if you got Paramount Plus,
- 22:09Speaker 2: tune in watch it. I definitely like the non pay
- 22:13Speaker 2: per view, the non pay per view platform because all
- 22:17Speaker 2: I gotta do is that Paramount Plus to watch it,
- 22:19Speaker 2: you know what I'm saying. So I definitely enjoy that
- 22:21Speaker 2: because I used to be one of those who spent
- 22:23Speaker 2: the eighty dollars every five every pay per view because
- 22:26Speaker 2: I'm a huge fan. You know what I'm saying. It's
- 22:28Speaker 2: just is what it is. Yeah, yeah, exactly, yeah, exactly
- 22:33Speaker 2: what it is A lot better. Yeah, yeah, I'm just
- 22:36Speaker 2: saying it is a lot better. I have Paramount Plus
- 22:40Speaker 2: and there's a land Man Yellowstone. Yeah, you know, what
- 22:47Speaker 2: I'm saying all the Paramount and like I said, it's
- 22:50Speaker 2: not a plug for Paramount'm just saying there's a lot
- 22:51Speaker 2: of quality stuff on there, but UFC, you know what
- 22:55Speaker 2: I'm saying. But I will be upset with Disney. I
- 22:58Speaker 2: will have a gripe with Disney because I can't eliminate
- 23:03Speaker 2: my ESPN Plus because that's where UFC used to be
- 23:06Speaker 2: used to be ESPN plus plus payment then you need
- 23:08Speaker 2: to pay for the pay per view. But I can't
- 23:10Speaker 2: get rid of es C N plus h on my
- 23:13Speaker 2: Disney bundle for all the streaming apps that you have
- 23:16Speaker 2: to have, you know what I'm saying. So I'm just like,
- 23:18Speaker 2: now I have ESPN plus for nothing, because that's the
- 23:20Speaker 2: only thing I ever had. ESPN plus four was strictly
- 23:23Speaker 2: you know, my daughter watches baseball, you know, she'll watch
- 23:26Speaker 2: a few games, she'll watch a few college my son
- 23:27Speaker 2: likes to watch some college But the only thing I
- 23:29Speaker 2: ever had ESPN plus four was the first specifically UFC.
- 23:32Speaker 2: And now there's no UFC.
- 23:34Speaker 1: There, right, Oh my gosh, that's funny. Yeah, I got
- 23:40Speaker 1: rid of that a while ago. Yeah, but I'm happy
- 23:43Speaker 1: I went to Paramount because I do have that.
- 23:45Speaker 2: Yeah, Yeah, I definitely, like I said, Paramount plus is
- 23:49Speaker 2: so much better, you know what I'm saying. And you
- 23:51Speaker 2: know the first couple who were a little rough, but
- 23:53Speaker 2: you know it's growing pains.
- 23:56Speaker 1: Right. Well, I'm looking forward to tomorrow morning because I'm
- 24:01Speaker 1: gonna do my first bench workout since May tomorrow morning.
- 24:05Speaker 1: I'm just gonna go in and go through the motions,
- 24:08Speaker 1: get some sets in, get some reps in, get some
- 24:11Speaker 1: like nothing crazy like stay high reps. Like I said
- 24:17Speaker 1: of twenty seat of fifteen, this out of ten will
- 24:21Speaker 1: probably be my rep schemes pretty much on all the
- 24:24Speaker 1: major on all the all the movements tomorrow. Just to
- 24:28Speaker 1: get into lifting shape because I haven't really been able
- 24:35Speaker 1: to do that with a pickline and just being sick
- 24:37Speaker 1: and the infection and everything else. So it'll be nice
- 24:40Speaker 1: to get back to lifting some stuff and doing some.
- 24:42Speaker 2: Things and then knock the rest off these joints.
- 24:45Speaker 1: Yeah, and then take the time do about an eight
- 24:50Speaker 1: week conditioning getting back into lifting training cycle, and then
- 24:57Speaker 1: get into an eight eight week medium training cycle while
- 25:03Speaker 1: still trying to work on my range of motion on
- 25:07Speaker 1: my lower body. Yeah, and then after that I can
- 25:10Speaker 1: start really kind of pushing back and getting after the weights.
- 25:16Speaker 1: After that, the following eight week training cycle will be
- 25:20Speaker 1: pretty good. So I'm looking at like twenty four weeks
- 25:23Speaker 1: you know of training cycle, training cycle, training cycle, and
- 25:27Speaker 1: then start kind of evaluating from there. I think my
- 25:30Speaker 1: lower body will probably be another two months of working
- 25:35Speaker 1: on two to three months working on mobility over everything else.
- 25:39Speaker 1: But I'll start still putting weight on and start lifting
- 25:42Speaker 1: and doing some things. But once I get the full
- 25:46Speaker 1: range of motion back is when I'll start the conditioning
- 25:50Speaker 1: cycle of probably twenties, fifteens, tens, you know, not doing
- 25:55Speaker 1: more than eight total sets for each body part or
- 25:59Speaker 1: for for like, if I do my lower body, it's
- 26:02Speaker 1: eight total works that's for lower body, if it's yea,
- 26:05Speaker 1: you know, stuff like that, and then start coming back
- 26:08Speaker 1: with that as well, because once I get the full
- 26:12Speaker 1: range of motion back, I actually have no limitations other
- 26:16Speaker 1: than you know, whatever I desire. So that's pretty much
- 26:21Speaker 1: what I'm going to do. The kidney's functioning great, so
- 26:26Speaker 1: everything's like really doing well right now. Every's like you
- 26:30Speaker 1: look so healthy. I'm like, well, I look unhealthy, but
- 26:34Speaker 1: I feel good, and so that's that's the cool part.
- 26:38Speaker 2: Yeah, Well, that's one of those things too. You had
- 26:41Speaker 2: a human you had a tremendous base before you went
- 26:44Speaker 2: through this this whole. Yeah, that's what a lot of
- 26:48Speaker 2: people forget.
- 26:49Speaker 1: Yeah, that made the thirtieth year squad at eight hundred
- 26:52Speaker 1: when I did eighth five before the surgery, before the surgery,
- 26:57Speaker 1: So which is pretty freaking cool, I think. So now
- 27:03Speaker 1: the goal is to the first goal is to squat
- 27:07Speaker 1: three hundred. Yep, that's the first goal. Yeah, And once
- 27:12Speaker 1: I get to that goal, second goal will be four,
- 27:14Speaker 1: third goal will be five and six, And you know,
- 27:18Speaker 1: take my time and build my way back up, and
- 27:20Speaker 1: some things are to come real easy, like all of
- 27:22Speaker 1: a sudden, you know, because I'm like walking way more
- 27:27Speaker 1: and doing a lot of stuff and going up a
- 27:29Speaker 1: lot of stairs and doing a lot of things. My
- 27:31Speaker 1: legs are like starting to come back to size again.
- 27:35Speaker 1: It's just my hips. There's not a lot of power
- 27:37Speaker 1: in my hips, but there's a lot of power on
- 27:39Speaker 1: my legs. Yeah. I almost watched the PT. He was
- 27:45Speaker 1: like stretching my thigh. He's like, Okay, I want you
- 27:47Speaker 1: to push hard into this for five seconds. I'm like, okay,
- 27:51Speaker 1: I start pushing. He's like whoa. When he went sliding,
- 27:56Speaker 1: He's like, Okay, let me brace for that a little better.
- 27:59Speaker 1: I'm like, go, okay, he goes, there's a lot of
- 28:01Speaker 1: power in there.
- 28:01Speaker 2: You go.
- 28:01Speaker 1: Yeah, there's a lot of power in my leg, you know,
- 28:04Speaker 1: my knee joint. There's not a lot of power in
- 28:05Speaker 1: my hip joint yet, but there's a lot of power
- 28:08Speaker 1: it you know, and the knee. So you know that
- 28:11Speaker 1: that's going going well. So it's I'm just excited. Just
- 28:15Speaker 1: need to take my time. It's hard to be patient
- 28:19Speaker 1: so and not get over excited not you know. So
- 28:24Speaker 1: it's cool. It's I'm just very happy with how things
- 28:29Speaker 1: are progressing. And so it's just one day at a time.
- 28:32Speaker 2: Yeah, and that's exactly what it needs to be, you
- 28:34Speaker 2: know what I'm saying that one day at a time,
- 28:35Speaker 2: that progression, Cause, like I said, it's a long.
- 28:41Speaker 1: Saw. The show in the seventies, Yeah it was it
- 28:44Speaker 1: the eighties. I think it was the seventies, so I'm
- 28:47Speaker 1: dating myself now. But yeah, it's just have a good attitude,
- 28:52Speaker 1: take a time, get back to it, and have fun.
- 28:55Speaker 1: So the Olympi is coming up pretty soon, so that's
- 28:57Speaker 1: going to be awesome. I going to be heading out
- 29:01Speaker 1: to the straw Man Contest again this year in November,
- 29:09Speaker 1: so that's gonna be awesome. Just got a lot of
- 29:13Speaker 1: stuff going on, and I'm gonna go visit Springfield Armory,
- 29:18Speaker 1: which is gonna be really cool, so to go see
- 29:21Speaker 1: them go shoot some stuff. The COONa I got is
- 29:27Speaker 1: absolutely amazing. Well, I put an optic on it with
- 29:31Speaker 1: a three time magnifier. There you go. So, I mean,
- 29:36Speaker 1: as you get older, your eyesight really isn't what it
- 29:39Speaker 1: used to be. So you put a three time magnifier
- 29:43Speaker 1: on it, all of a sudden you can see the
- 29:44Speaker 1: target clear, and once you have it zeroed, you just
- 29:49Speaker 1: you already know how to stay stable, you already know
- 29:51Speaker 1: how to brace into it. You're and you're just punching
- 29:54Speaker 1: out the middle of things, even at fifteen twenty five yards.
- 29:57Speaker 1: So it's pretty nice. And then the TPR, the nineteen
- 30:04Speaker 1: eleven TPR forty five ACP, is absolutely amazing that that
- 30:11Speaker 1: that thing shoots so well. It really does. It's just
- 30:15Speaker 1: and the gun doesn't the recoil on it's very very good. Yeah,
- 30:19Speaker 1: so you can hold on target very very well. So
- 30:23Speaker 1: it's kind of nice. So it's it's pretty pretty excited.
- 30:26Speaker 1: I'm excited to go out there and see some of
- 30:28Speaker 1: the other guns, you know, the echelon and stuff like that.
- 30:31Speaker 1: And then they got some rifles out there that we'll
- 30:33Speaker 1: probably go shoot. So it's gonna be a lot of fun.
- 30:35Speaker 1: I cannot wait.
- 30:37Speaker 2: Oh yeah, oh yeah, So.
- 30:38Speaker 1: A lot of cool stuff coming up.
- 30:40Speaker 2: Yeah, a lot of cool stuff coming up, you know
- 30:41Speaker 2: what I'm saying. And like I said, this is all
- 30:43Speaker 2: something that we've talked, planned and then explained as like,
- 30:47Speaker 2: you know, getting past this surgery, you know, doors open
- 30:51Speaker 2: up for everything that we had planned to do.
- 30:52Speaker 1: It, even putting it off for too long ago.
- 30:55Speaker 2: Exactly, yeah, exactly. So now but you're just hitting that.
- 31:00Speaker 2: You're hitting that turn.
- 31:02Speaker 1: And then in November there's OSG, so go to that again.
