Bryce, stop wearing flip-flops.
0:03
Gross.
0:03
Tell us why.
0:04
Gross.
0:05
Why not?
0:05
It's the opposite of your pattern to walk.
0:08
It totally goes against what muscles turn on,
0:11
what muscles allow us to move the foot and the ankle
0:15
in a position where...
0:17
Exercise can be toxic to your body,
0:18
essentially because if you're repeating a bad motion,
0:21
you're going to have all kinds of muscle imbalances.
0:24
I might say something controversial here
0:26
because they're followed heavily in the performance world,
0:29
But look at a gentleman like if you take a medication, say a pain med that makes your butt sore and you shut down that information, does it atrophy actually atrophy the muscle because you're shutting down nerve flow?
0:42
I would say the biggest bit of advice I could give.
0:48
Bryce, welcome to the show.
0:50
I love your story.
0:51
It's another hero's journey.
0:53
And I want you to share that.
0:54
It started with your own personal health challenge when it comes to chronic pain, and we're going to get into some chronic pain solutions.
1:01
And you found some excellent ones.
1:03
You get to share different modalities, even different movements and how you exercise.
1:08
But first, how just like every other podcast begins, there's a story, there's some energy that you overcame and that you use for good to not only help yourself, but now you're helping thousands of people.
1:21
Correct.
1:21
You got to have the motivation for it.
1:23
And what is that motivator?
1:25
For me, a personal story for myself, I believe I was 12 or 13 at the time, went through a big growth spurt.
1:32
I'm 6'1 right now.
1:34
I haven't grown an inch since seventh grade.
1:36
And in seventh grade, I was diagnosed with Osgood-Schlatter's in my knees, growth plates overlapping, chronic, severe pain.
1:43
Did you have pumps?
1:44
Oh, I have massive ones still right now.
1:47
And wasn't really able to run, wasn't able to do anything athletic for a period of time.
1:52
In fact, when it first came on, I couldn't walk.
1:55
I had to crawl up the stairs, yell to my mom out the front door to come help me to see what was going on.
2:01
With that, I've been through, I was with multiple different providers, did different techniques and practices, podiatrists, neurologists.
2:11
Ultimately, the answer was to put me up with 600 milligrams of ibuprofen to deal with the inflammation response.
2:18
A series of braces around the knee.
2:20
What causes those?
2:21
Osgoode splatters.
2:23
I was told it was genetic and hereditary, and it was something that just happened during my growth spurt.
2:29
I had a big growth spurt, and that was it.
2:31
So it's just chronic inflammation that causes calcification?
2:35
I believe the growth plates overlap themselves.
2:39
I was told I was supposed to be 6'4", 6'5".
2:43
6'1 is not short, but boy, I'd like to be 6'4".
2:46
That would have been nice.
2:47
So that kind of hung in there for a little bit, too.
2:49
I went to podiatrists, had some inserts in my foot.
2:53
Ultimately, nothing helped.
2:54
From the time I was 12 to 18 years old, I played three sports, multiple letter winner.
3:02
I had the opportunity to go play college athletics too.
3:05
I chose a different route, but had to deal with pain and suffering throughout.
3:10
and it really came down to making me very quad dominant.
3:14
Everything that was provided to me as an answer,
3:18
looking back now at what I know,
3:20
just totally made me quad dominant,
3:22
shutting off my posterior chains,
3:24
shutting off my hamstrings.
3:25
And when you think about that,
3:26
what would the purpose be of that?
3:28
If my quads are tight, my patella is gonna hurt.
3:31
My patella tenet is right below it
3:34
is where the Osgood-Schlatter's is.
3:36
So it just provided more of an issue.
3:39
That was the beginning.
3:43
That created the why later on in life.
3:46
And I was fortunate enough to go through that and see the silver lining because I've been able to help a lot of other people with that same condition that we see at the clinic that I work at.
3:57
Yeah, that's beautiful.
3:58
Yeah, you're a wizard, right, when it comes to stuff.
4:02
We're in the gym this morning, and this is where we met.
4:04
And I'm like, we got to share this with others.
4:07
I mean, you're hooking people up.
4:08
And I was listening to what you were saying.
4:10
And I'm like, oh, here's another guy that has some machine that you buy.
4:17
And I'm just skeptical.
4:19
Like some of the ones that you talked about, I'm like, I don't like it, right?
4:22
Yeah.
4:22
I don't like it.
4:23
But I heard what you were saying and I've, you know, I know I have friends that are PTs.
4:29
I have chiropractors and chiropractic neurologists.
4:33
So I understand about muscles turning on and off.
4:35
And I know a little bit about frequency and how you can turn muscles on with frequency, with laser, different things.
4:42
And this is all science-based.
4:44
It's just different, right?
4:45
There's different ways you can take drugs or you can turn your muscles on, right?
4:50
And sometimes turning the muscles on, maybe not fix all your problems, but it sure can delay things.
4:57
And I've talked to osteopaths, you know, who decided to stop being a doctor of osteopathy because they were making people sick through the surgeries.
5:08
And like a lot of this stuff is preventable and I'm just driving what the hospital says, more surgeries.
5:14
So there's these aha moments.
5:15
And so what you do not only is preventative, but stops people from getting surgery, stop people from getting going under under anesthesia.
5:22
I'm just going to get my shoulder worked on.
5:23
And then after I get my shoulder done, I'm going to get my knee done.
5:26
And after I get my knee done, I'm going to get my wrist done.
5:28
Then I'm going to get my elbow done.
5:30
And all those are massive inflammatory insults.
5:33
The drugs that you have to take are so hard on your body and they lead to things like dementia.
5:40
And when you take these things, it overwhelms your system.
5:42
These are toxic to your body.
5:44
these unintended consequences of that magic surgery.
5:47
And this is my dad, a baby boomer,
5:49
but he's, you know, like 82 or three.
5:52
I got my shoulder done.
5:53
I got my elbow done.
5:54
I got my
5:55
knees, both knees at the same time done.
5:58
And he never recovered from that surgery.
5:59
That was one
6:00
of the worst surgeries for him.
6:01
They shouldn't have done a double knee surgery on a guy that was
6:04
his age.
6:04
So the things that you do, the movements like you were, you know, you're like posture and
6:11
And the way that you work out, because if you favor one side, you're setting yourself up for a blown out knee.
6:19
These things don't happen on accident.
6:22
They happen because we're not setting our bodies up for success.
6:25
It's usually how we train ourselves to operate.
6:28
How do you sit?
6:29
How do you walk?
6:30
If you're doing performance stuff, how are you lifting?
6:34
How are you doing these things?
6:35
It is going to lead you to the why you have pain.
6:38
It's going to lead you to the why you have limitations in range of motion is going to lead you to why you're stuck in just treating the symptoms.
6:47
You know, what we're going to do is look at an approach as healing your nervous system.
6:52
A lot of the medications and drugs that you take from those surgeries end up trashing your nervous system.
6:57
And disconnect you from your nervous system.
6:58
Totally disconnected.
6:59
So now you're not getting the information your body needs.
7:01
I mean, we got to use that connection to get those muscles to come back to life to start absorbing force.
7:07
Well, let's go there real fast.
7:08
I've always wanted to ask this question.
7:10
If you take a medication, say a pain med, that makes your butt sore, right, and you shut down that information, does it atrophy, actually atrophy the muscle because you're shutting down nerve flow?
7:24
Atrophy is something that's a neurological phenomenon.
7:26
It's not really a, you see it in the physical realm, but it's kind of a use it or lose it deal.
7:33
If you don't have that connection and that continues over time, you're going to develop a pattern to never use it.
7:40
So then, yes, you're going to have atrophy.
7:43
Would taking a medication do that?
7:44
I don't know.
7:45
I can't speak on that.
7:46
But I would imagine if something were to shut that connection down for a period of time, then we're going to need something else to bring that connection back because we've lost the connection here.
7:58
That muscle's not firing.
8:00
So how are we going to do it?
8:02
What we do is we use an external brain for that.
8:05
And when I say we, I'm speaking of my clinic, the Spiro Clinic, I'm talking about providers that use the technology.
8:12
It's called the ARP wave, the RX100 or the RX Black.
8:17
It's going to act as an external brain, sending information to that muscle, turning it on very rapidly.
8:25
In real time, every second equals 250 seconds on the stimulation.
8:30
So if we can set that muscle in place, if we can get that muscle to respond,
8:34
If we can get that muscle to shorten and lengthen, start absorbing force, and now we take 250 seconds for each one second and multiply that by 15 minutes, we're going to adapt to that rather quickly.
8:46
We're going to retain that information so that when the treatment's done, now done that one session, we're going to leave.
8:53
We're going to feel better.
8:54
We're going to feel loose.
8:55
As you saw, the gentleman that I was working out with today said, oh, my knee's not clicking anymore.
9:00
And all we did was wall squats for five, 10 minutes.
9:04
Yeah, I think a great analogy for folks, I don't know if you've ever done this, but like
9:09
when you first learn something new, like your muscles have never done this movement before
9:13
and you're doing, you're working out with a trainer and I think so many people have
9:17
done that and you're so awkward, you can't get the movement down.
9:21
But after you do it a couple times, even at night, your body's trying to figure out that
9:26
movement, right?
9:27
This is how yoga works and you're activating muscles you've never activated before or you
9:32
can't even activate them.
9:33
like i know that when my inner core shut down after some uh injections that i got for like
9:39
stem cells and stuff like that i it shut down my activation of my core and i had to relearn how to
9:45
find that inner core and suck my belly button and i completely lost that and that the muscle
9:50
shut down and because that muscle shut down um my other things inside that chain happened and then
9:57
all these the whole left side of my body went it got more chronic headaches i got like all
10:01
tumbleweed effect yeah it was it was horrible so when you talk about muscle activation the reason
10:06
why it's it connects for me because i know anytime that i'm trying to activate a muscle
10:11
and it's not activated i can't do the movement and it's really hard it takes you know say it
10:17
like your thing you said it took it does 250 times it stimulates that muscle well i'm only
10:21
stimulating it once so literally for me to get that movement down to activate that muscle it
10:27
it take me weeks to figure it out before I can finally activate my inner core.
10:32
It took me so
10:33
long.
10:34
So when I'm picking something up, I'm activating my inner core.
10:36
I'm not afraid to bend
10:37
over.
10:37
But when I'm carrying something now, I just activate the inner core.
10:41
It protects my spine and
10:42
back and I don't hurt anymore.
10:44
Like I can carry heavy things again.
10:47
I can do hard things because
10:50
I reactivated, retrained that muscle to be alive again.
10:54
Reeducated.
10:54
Yeah, reeducated the muscle.
10:56
neuromuscular re-education neuromuscular re-education that is the name of the game yeah
11:01
we use a stimulator for that we can identify where in that chain this breakdown originates so you
11:07
had mentioned is your stomach well is your stomach the problem or is something else caused the
11:13
stomach to be a problem we don't know we could hook you up to an emg we could hook you up to
11:19
multiple tests we could run a cat scan we're still not going to find it because it's a it's a
11:24
connection issue at some specific time that those abdominal muscles shut down.
11:31
So where did it
11:32
originate?
11:34
We take the machine, we scan your body, we identify locations.
11:39
You'll feel muscles
11:40
contract in certain locations where your problem is based on where we're putting that, the
11:45
electrodes.
11:46
That's going to identify those cellular disruption locations, breakdowns in that chain,
11:52
and then we're going to reestablish it.
11:54
So we could be, for example,
11:57
let's say it was your knee and you have knee pain.
12:01
The search might identify your obliques and glute are shut off.
12:05
Why would we continue to treat the knee
12:07
if the knee isn't the problem?
12:08
Knee's the outcome of a problem.
12:10
The problem is higher up.
12:12
Happens all the time.
12:13
Beauty is we don't need to spend much time to find that.
12:16
Your body tells us.
12:18
Nobody's opinion matters.
12:20
We go off sensation that you feel.
12:22
You'll feel muscles guarding, protecting.
12:24
It'll throw your body into a compensatory position.
12:28
Well, that's where to start.
12:30
That's where your body is going for protecting.
12:33
And protection is easy for the body to go into.
12:36
What's difficult for the body to go into is the lengthening, the relaxation thereof, especially if we have pain and we're stuck in some higher level of a sympathetic nature.
12:47
Yeah, I love it.
12:48
So, and that's a device people can look for and find some practitioners, but what can people do?
12:54
I like to give some value to audience.
12:57
You know a lot, right?
12:58
So what are some other movements, other things they can do to, if they can't find a practitioner like yourself, what can people do to get out of pain?
13:09
Some exercises they could do.
13:10
Like, I know there's no, like, the top three exercises that people can do to get themselves out of, say, knee pain.
13:16
the top three exercises people can do to get themselves out of back pain.
13:20
Anything like that,
13:21
that you could share with your expertise?
13:23
I mean, the modality in itself is going to
13:26
accelerate the process of that neurological re-education or your body going through a,
13:32
what's called adaptation.
13:33
Yeah.
13:34
One to two.
13:34
But if you've changed it from what it was to what it is
13:37
now, and we need to change it back, that's the re-education part.
13:41
Well, we can do that on our
13:42
own.
13:43
In theory, we don't need the modality, but the modality creates it, forces it to happen.
13:50
Whereas it might be difficult for us to identify every little compensation pattern in our movement,
13:57
which then leads to what should we do?
13:59
How should we do it?
14:01
I don't know if there's a specific three
14:05
exercises that it's more of the principle of straight lines and right angles.
14:10
If my body's
14:11
positioned in straight lines and right angles, if I'm hip width and parallel, well, then I'm
14:15
evenly balanced, right?
14:17
If I have a foot turning out pronating, if my hips open, if it's lifted up,
14:22
if my, if my shoulders anterior rounded, well, what does that mean?
14:27
That means certain muscles
14:28
are performing one thing on one side and not the other.
14:31
That means my position's off.
14:32
That means
14:33
my balance is off.
14:34
So if I'm going to go exercise with that, well, then I'm just going to reinforce
14:38
reinforce what's already wrong with me.
14:41
I'm just going to reinforce why I have pain.
14:42
And oftentimes
14:43
that's, that's the deterrent for a lot of people when they go to a gym.
14:47
Well, I don't want to go
14:48
to, I'm going to hurt more.
14:49
Well, you're going to hurt more because of that.
14:51
So if, if, if, if maybe
14:54
if, if our foot turning out, maybe if we were cognizant of it, if we, if we checked our position,
15:00
if we used props, if we use sticks, a mirror, multiple mirrors to identify every little
15:06
position and nuance that we have to correct, well, that, that then is what's going to do it for us.
15:12
And you can, I don't, I, I could say wall squats, but however, if your wall squat was off form,
15:18
it's not going to do much for you.
15:20
I could say a delt raise, but if you're delt raising with,
15:23
uh, without a lat and, and, and you're forcing your delt to do more, well, then that's probably
15:29
going to reinforce some shoulder issues that we have.
15:32
Um, and so, so I would say the biggest
15:36
A bit of advice I could get is get a mirror.
15:39
Check your position.
15:40
Make sure your feet are parallel and straight lines, right angles.
15:44
Probably stay off a treadmill, especially if we have knee issues.
15:47
Treadmills are going to kind of shut down that posterior chain,
15:50
and we're going to need that to relax the quad.
15:52
I like the mirror thing because a lot of people are afraid of mirrors.
15:55
I don't want to look at myself, but if you're doing a squat
15:57
and you see your knee buckling inside, don't put any weight on you.
16:01
Just learn the movement.
16:02
I can burn my legs out.
16:04
some days if I don't have enough energy and I'm training with my trainer and I will just do
16:09
regular squats.
16:10
You said.
16:10
You saw me and Dr. Isaac today, we were doing curls.
16:13
What were we curling?
16:15
A towel.
16:16
A towel.
16:16
Yeah.
16:17
A hand towel.
16:17
Yeah.
16:18
Did you see his sweat and dripping?
16:21
That was his first
16:22
time doing it.
16:22
I've done that thousands of times, but that was his first time doing it.
16:25
And he was,
16:26
we had like two minutes left and he's like, holy cow.
16:28
Yeah.
16:29
This is, this is, this is taxing me out.
16:31
This is unbelievable.
16:32
They loved it though.
16:33
Well, you don't need a lot of weight
16:36
because the resistance is against the compensation.
16:40
So that resistance in itself is gonna create a change.
16:43
Yeah.
16:43
So when you do exercise, it's better to do,
16:46
I think one of the big takeaways,
16:48
exercise can be toxic to your body essentially
16:51
because if you throw off,
16:54
if you're repeating a bad motion,
16:57
you're gonna have all kinds of muscle imbalances.
16:59
I might say something controversial here.
17:01
because they're followed heavily in the performance world.
17:07
But look at a gentleman like Arnold.
17:10
I think Arnold's got two hips and two knees repaired.
17:12
That's not healthy.
17:13
Was he lifting appropriately?
17:15
Well, to achieve the physique that he desired to win a Mr. Olympia, yeah.
17:24
But as far as longevity goes, I mean, the proof is there.
17:28
His hips are toast, his knees are toast.
17:30
Yeah.
17:31
Yeah.
17:32
How did we wear those?
17:34
How did we continue to wear those outside of a gym?
17:38
The wear and tear
17:38
just didn't happen in his time in the gym.
17:40
It was the patterns that he developed that he continued
17:42
to move with after.
17:44
So constantly causing force to enter a joint rather than be absorbed by muscle.
17:50
And that's a hard thing to comprehend because this guy's massive.
17:54
How can his muscles not protect his joints?
17:57
Well, it happened.
17:58
Yeah.
17:59
Big muscles doesn't mean health, that's for sure.
18:01
No, it doesn't.
18:02
It's hard on your body.
18:03
A strong muscle to me is a long muscle,
18:06
a muscle that can lengthen and then recoil and take a lot of load.
18:11
But if we can't get the muscle to lengthen,
18:13
what kind of load is it supposed to get?
18:15
That load then is not going to get dissipated into the ground or the air.
18:19
It's going to find somewhere else in your body that it's got to go.
18:22
And that then is what oftentimes leads to pain,
18:26
limitation in range of motion and so forth.
18:28
So that makes sense.
18:29
So tell, talk about how
18:32
short muscles can lead to joint pain and then how to, how can we lengthen our muscles?
18:39
If our focus in the lift is to constantly concentrically contract, we're missing the
18:44
other component of it.
18:45
When you contract, you must relax.
18:48
Otherwise you only know the one thing.
18:51
so oftentimes you know you see you know bodybuilders uh tear a bicep tendon let's just
18:58
use that for example uh personal experience of my own i've worked with a number of patients
19:01
throughout the years that have torn a bicep tendon by trying to open a drawer and something
19:07
gets kind of stuck underneath it or trying to open a car door that's frozen well these guys can curl
19:15
100 pounds.
19:16
Why can't they open a drawer and prevent an injury?
19:20
Because all that load goes
19:21
into the shortening of it so that when they catch, it goes right into the tendon because
19:26
the muscle can't take it.
19:28
They have a tear.
19:30
So how do we do that?
19:31
Well, we focus on what we were
19:33
just talking about, the lengthening of it.
19:35
When that muscle can stay loose and not guard and
19:38
protect from all the shortening we've put through, it's going to be able to handle those stressful
19:42
situations without an injury, without the risk of an injury.
19:47
And that's what we got to look at.
19:48
We got to look at it as what caused the injury.
19:52
Nothing's really freak.
19:54
What happened was an immense amount of force was placed in an area that
19:58
shouldn't, that shouldn't bear it.
20:02
We had an injury.
20:03
Unless there's some blunt force trauma involved, which, you know,
20:06
it'd be easy to kind of pinpoint that as.
20:08
Yeah.
20:09
That's the reason why.
20:10
Knee goes into the, you know.
20:12
Yeah.
20:13
Into the car.
20:13
So when we're doing, I like functional workouts, like movement things that I do.
20:19
So I like to use my body.
20:21
I'm not typically don't, unless I'm at a gym and I don't have time, maybe I would just, you know, do some resistive training.
20:30
But I love functional movement.
20:32
Does functional movement, functional exercise, movement exercise help lengthen the muscle?
20:39
That's all we focus on.
20:41
Everything is functional.
20:43
Everything is what are we doing, how are we doing it, and what that's going to transition to.
20:48
So supermans are really good.
20:52
Cross crawl marching is really good.
20:56
Body weight stuff is really good.
20:58
I mean, I've probably worked out with weights for a total of five hours in the last two months.
21:06
Yeah.
21:06
It's just not a priority to me because I'm not trying to win a show or anything like that.
21:12
My priority is to make it hard to go.
21:16
If I die, it's going to take a lot.
21:18
Yeah, it's hard to kill.
21:19
It's not going to be easy.
21:21
And that's the premise of everything for me.
21:23
And the functional activities, the functional movement pattern stuff, those sort of exercises are what puts your body in a position to handle the stressors.
21:36
that may come at you because it's all balanced.
21:38
We're not isolating something to where at the moment of stress,
21:42
this is the pattern that's going to surface
21:45
because we've done all this isolation work.
21:47
Well, then we're shutting everything else down in that chain
21:50
that should turn on and take some load for us.
21:52
And then there goes the example, trying to open up a drawer,
21:58
something gets pinned up in it, and that tears our bicep tendon.
22:02
That's crazy.
22:02
So it's used to just contracting and it does a lot of force and it didn't have, so like explain how that happened.
22:10
Well, at point of stress through the lifts, we're just creating a concentric action.
22:19
So when we go in to do that, the muscle balls up and we have an injury.
22:25
I'm sure you've seen many preacher curls.
22:28
Those videos are kind of brutal to watch, but a guy in a preacher curl and both of them go well.
22:35
That's at lengthening when he's just coming up typically.
22:39
Yeah, but he's probably done a ton of reps before at that.
22:42
So why in that one did it occur?
22:45
That pattern from that stressor that we taught ourselves surfaced.
22:49
So if I'm doing everything at a certain level and I'm not really fatiguing, I'm not compensating.
22:58
that's easy to see.
22:59
But then once I begin to recruit other muscles,
23:02
that's where that compensation is triggered.
23:07
The best, I think, example would be
23:09
is if you were to go into a military press,
23:13
throw some weight on there, do eight reps.
23:16
That eight rep probably isn't looking the same as the first,
23:19
unless you're really good and know what you're doing.
23:21
But I would say there's a large percentage of people
23:24
that it's lift the weight at all cost.
23:27
mentality.
23:28
Yeah.
23:29
And that, yeah, that's not healthy at all.
23:32
But let's think about this.
23:34
That eighth rep was more stressful than the first rep.
23:39
Okay.
23:39
Body fatigued.
23:40
Yeah.
23:42
That stressor, that, that, the way that we lifted that first rep is how we can manage stress that's
23:48
equal in the real world to that first rep.
23:51
Whereas that eighth rep stressor is more stress.
23:54
So when we put our body in that position and we're faced with that much stress in real life, and that stress could maybe only be opening a drawer, but it's coming at you all at once.
24:06
And that's the pattern your body goes back to.
24:09
That's the one it recruits.
24:11
So if I'm military pressing and the eighth rep, shoulders coming up, elbows going out, I'm a compensation machine.
24:22
Two days later, I'm in my garage and I'm trying to get a cooler down from a rafter and it falls and I got to catch it right away.
24:31
I'm not going to catch it like this.
24:32
That's a pretty stressful moment.
24:34
I'm going to recruit that old pattern that I developed from that eighth rep.
24:39
that's what's going to surface.
24:41
That load is not meant to go into my shoulder.
24:44
Might have a shoulder injury, might sustain an injury.
24:46
So your body has the...
24:48
Memorizes it.
24:48
Yeah, your mind is like, oh, this is going to be a major stressor.
24:51
It's falling.
24:52
It doesn't know
24:52
if it's five pounds or 10 pounds, but it reaches up with the same memory of the eighth rep.
25:00
Yeah, you're not going to access the way you did that first rep.
25:03
Yeah.
25:04
Because this is more stressful in your mind, and it's that whole sympathetic, parasympathetic.
25:11
It's more stressful in your mind, so you're going to recruit that stress pattern.
25:14
And that's how we're going to get hurt.
25:16
Then your body's out of position.
25:17
It's not supposed to be like this.
25:19
And really, you see that oftentimes in sports.
25:22
When do injuries occur?
25:24
They don't occur in the middle of the game.
25:26
It's the beginning because we didn't prep for it, or the end because we're fatiguing from it.
25:32
That's why you see the guys on the bikes.
25:34
They're riding to stay loose, keeping their muscles active rather than stand, sit and get cold, have muscles fatiguing, shorting up from non-use.
25:42
So they're on the bike, they're getting warm, they're staying loose so that when they go out there, they're still in that nature, not tense, tightened up from fatigue or, you know, we just didn't prepare for it.
25:55
So our muscles weren't in the state to perform.
25:57
Yeah, I love that.
25:58
So when you're exercising, exercise for real life.
26:01
That's what functional exercise is.
26:03
That's what primal movements, that's coming back.
26:05
Guys swinging on trees and crawling like a bear or a lion or doing.
26:11
Or like the flat line, the line walking, you know, that too.
26:15
So you just.
26:16
You really learn the balance from that, really can activate other things.
26:18
And really, if you're going to get a poor pattern to surface during a, I don't want to call it a life or death situation, but it's kind of like.
26:30
In a stressful moment.
26:30
I have to react right now.
26:31
Yeah.
26:32
Training that way isn't bad either.
26:35
Training to failure is what you need to do because at that point of failure is the most stressful time.
26:40
And if we're not compensating, our body is in position, there's no way we're going to recruit the bad pattern when something comes at us real quick in the outside world.
26:52
So boiling this down, if you're training and you're getting out of form, if you're moving out of those right angles,
26:59
If you're moving out of the linear patterns that your body's engineered to have so that it's strong and safe, you don't want to push extra and fall out of form.
27:13
No.
27:13
But if you're in form that whole time, so don't.
27:17
That's why you should use a mirror and some props.
27:20
So this is where this comes back in.
27:21
So you train to the point where you can keep really good form.
27:26
Know what really good form is.
27:27
Not everybody.
27:28
do you have any resources of good form is tough to find online everybody i look at some health uh
27:36
you know health influencers online and their form is and i'm not even an expert i'm like whoa
27:41
that doesn't look right um and they're training people online or is there any resources
27:46
uh people on instagram evenly even that show good form do you have good form on a
27:53
have any resources for that because that is a really important piece i mean you just gotta
27:57
to identify usually is something that you feel as a problem after your lift that you did wrong
28:03
and it's usually up in the traps it's usually an upper body thing of clenching and tension
28:10
yeah never clench when you uh never clench yeah i used to do that there's basic basic principles
28:16
how are we we're all human beings we all are bipedal we opposite arm opposite leg walk
28:26
we're all balanced out so it just comes basic down to that straight lines right angles premise you
28:32
know we got to put our body in that and and and and when we when we do we force muscles to turn on
28:40
that haven't so that's the that that really is when we get into a treatment and everything like
28:47
that just like you could assist the patient, hold the patient.
28:53
You could get a bar in your room if
28:55
you were working out, maybe use the door handle, but something that's going to identify what's
29:01
wrong.
29:02
Because if you don't know what's wrong, then how are you going to fix it?
29:05
Right.
29:06
So the first would be to identify those compensation patterns, those imbalances.
29:11
What
29:11
am I doing wrong?
29:12
Is my right foot turned out?
29:13
Am I pronating?
29:14
Or is my shoulder up?
29:15
You know,
29:15
what's my back?
29:16
You just look in the mirror and look at the bottom of your shoes.
29:19
There was one time I was, when I first started into working with Artwave, I was doing wall squats.
29:28
And I thought I was all right.
29:29
I thought I was balanced out.
29:29
I didn't have a mirror in front of me.
29:31
But I was doing them on carpet.
29:33
And I walked by it one day and the sun was beaming through a window.
29:37
And I looked and it looked like one of my foot spots was deeper than the other.
29:42
And that was the only time I could figure it out.
29:44
So, I mean, it's...
29:45
more pressure on one leg.
29:46
Yeah, it's putting more pressure on one leg than the other.
29:48
Yeah,
29:49
it's the stronger leg, the dominant leg.
29:51
Then I identified that, eliminated it, and
29:54
it's no longer a concern for me.
29:56
But had I not seen that, had I not known that,
29:58
I couldn't have made that change.
30:00
So it's really about identifying what you're doing wrong.
30:03
You
30:03
know, what out of balance, what out of place is there?
30:06
What are your hips squared up?
30:09
Does our
30:09
belly button line up with our chin?
30:11
If our belly doesn't, belly button doesn't line up with our
30:14
chin and sternum and it's offset well you probably got some back issues so how are we going to
30:22
identify that we probably should see a provider of some care and and get some good instruction
30:30
what could we do just ourselves i'm staring a mirror and line that belly button up make sure
30:36
your hips are squared up do some positional work and uh i think getting into something like yoga
30:43
with a good instructor might not be a bad idea either.
30:46
You know, as long as we're,
30:48
our premise is body position and stress
30:53
and managing that stress without compensating.
30:56
Cause that's really what it comes down to.
30:58
Yeah.
30:58
That's, that's what this is really boiled down to.
31:00
Don't exercise and compensate.
31:02
Just go light.
31:04
You know, everyone says this, you know,
31:06
just, just do your form.
31:08
But I think the piece of information you shared today,
31:10
it was eyeopening to me is if you don't do that,
31:14
you're massively setting yourself up for emergency because you're training
31:18
your body to be out of position to where your back's going to get hurt,
31:22
to where your shoulder is going to get hurt,
31:23
to where your elbow is going to get hurt,
31:26
or your body is going to injure itself because you're pushing to the point
31:31
where you're getting out of form,
31:32
where your body is naturally designed to move.
31:36
And when you're out of that normal pattern,
31:37
when you pick up something heavy and you can pick it up one time and it doesn't,
31:43
you're not doing all kinds of crazy grunting and doing a weird motion to get it.
31:50
You're not struggling to get it up.
31:52
Isolating a certain muscle group or something.
31:55
I mean, let's be honest.
31:56
So you're going here to like, I'm going to use this,
31:57
and now I'm going to start using my chest too, not just my shoulder,
32:01
so I get into this weird muscle pattern.
32:03
Because you're trying to develop a bigger chest or something because you want that look.
32:07
How many people do you think listen to this and get paid for their body?
32:10
None?
32:11
Maybe half a percent of the people that tune into this?
32:15
So, I mean, really, what are we trying to do?
32:17
Are we trying to become a better middle linebacker?
32:21
Are we trying to run a faster 100-meter dash?
32:24
Are we just trying to be healthy?
32:26
And we should all just be trying to be healthier.
32:29
Yeah.
32:31
We're not kids anymore.
32:33
Yeah, you're 44.
32:35
I'm turning 50.
32:36
You know, that's why I just do functional movement.
32:38
I don't want to beat my joints up by pushing heavy weight anymore because I know that through all the training I've got meeting people like you, I just want to be able to pick up.
32:50
I have a young daughter.
32:51
I just want to be able to pick my daughter up and carry my daughter.
32:53
And that's what motivated me to really hone in on activating my muscles again so I could pick up my daughter because my back hurt for so many years.
33:03
and I never got head surgery or anything.
33:06
It was just reactivating muscles
33:09
so that I could pick my daughter up again.
33:10
And so many times my kids were like,
33:12
why can't you hold me, daddy?
33:13
My back hurts.
33:14
And that broke my heart, right?
33:16
And I didn't really have anything wrong,
33:18
but I had the pain,
33:19
but I couldn't pick up my daughter.
33:21
So I'm like, I gotta figure this out.
33:23
My kids wanna be close to me.
33:24
They wanna be held and I can't carry them.
33:27
I don't feel like I'm protecting
33:29
and being there for my kids.
33:32
That's great motivation.
33:34
Yeah, it was great motivation.
33:35
That's what really is the driver behind that, and it should all be great motivation.
33:41
Sometimes that isn't the case.
33:43
If I wanted to get a big chest, well, then I'd do just chest workout.
33:47
But then what would that mean in the long run?
33:51
There wouldn't be anything positive from that other than a look of it.
33:55
I probably couldn't even use it for something I wanted to because I shut everything else down that plays a role with what the packs are doing.
34:05
But if I'm going to isolate it, if I'm going to bulk up, if I'm going to get that, that's kind of a toxic motivator.
34:11
You know, that's not, that doesn't equal longevity.
34:16
That doesn't equal anything other than a short-term physique deal.
34:23
that's maybe that's your motivator but i don't believe that it's different it's different
34:28
motivation yeah so if you're motivated for looks it's going to have consequences
34:33
bottom line right it's uh it's not good for your for your health because you're putting yourself
34:37
into a muscle building state um i think it's called mtor yeah um and that's not healthy that's
34:43
oxidative stress it's hard on your body it may look good but all it's funny when it comes down
34:49
to what you look like naturally
34:51
and that we're forcing your body out of natural state,
34:56
there's consequences.
34:57
If you move away from nature,
34:59
nature isn't overtraining, right?
35:02
It isn't isolating muscles.
35:04
That is a very niche thing
35:07
that wealthy society has the time to do,
35:10
but it's not a functional society.
35:11
That's not good for you.
35:13
It's not good for your body.
35:14
It may look good in America
35:17
because we have devices and altered realities of what beauty is when it comes to women, men.
35:24
Even today, it's being altered where young men want to get on testosterone replacement therapy
35:29
to have even more testosterone so they can be more bulky and shredded because of what they see online,
35:34
which is sad, which is not natural.
35:37
It's moving you away from nature.
35:38
It's setting you up for injury.
35:42
And so when you're a dad someday, if you want to have –
35:44
Well, you might not, first of all, if you're taking testosterone at that age, that's shutting down your sperm production.
35:47
So you're not gonna be able to have a kid.
35:49
So there's these consequences.
35:50
No one tells them that, but the vanity of it all, the shiny object of looks, of vanity will make you make a decision.
35:58
And you don't understand the consequences.
36:01
And a provider that may be offering this to you is not gonna tell you, hey, that's shutting you.
36:06
Do you want to have kids?
36:07
Are they asking that question?
36:09
Do you want to have injury by, you know, if you train this way?
36:14
you're setting yourself up for injury.
36:16
Arnold Schwarzenegger, right?
36:17
You're going to destroy your muscles.
36:18
It's not meant to be stressed like that.
36:21
But that's a choice, right?
36:22
We all make choices, you know?
36:24
I mean, you can choose to drink out of plastic water bottles.
36:26
That's the great thing about life.
36:27
You have a choice.
36:28
And it's beautiful.
36:29
But you live with those choices.
36:31
You do.
36:31
You make your own bed in life.
36:33
It's consequences.
36:33
And you're forced to sleep in it.
36:35
Yeah.
36:35
But yeah, great point.
36:36
You know, toxic mentality, healthy mentality, two different things.
36:40
What are we doing it for?
36:41
Are we doing it for a short-term look?
36:43
or are we doing it to be happy and healthy in life?
36:46
Yeah.
36:47
And that's got to be the motivator.
36:51
You look back at pictures of people at the beach in the 50s
36:55
compared to people at the beach today.
36:57
Well, they were a lot healthier back then.
37:01
Well, the men were lean.
37:02
They weren't bulky, right?
37:05
And the women were lean.
37:08
What was the focus of the training?
37:10
Probably all functional.
37:12
All functional.
37:12
All functional.
37:13
Yeah.
37:14
You know, pushups, sit-ups, you know, running, walking, climbing, you know, those are functional movements.
37:23
And now you see either someone who's shredded and not necessarily on TRT, but definitely trained for looks like at Venice Beach.
37:32
And then, you know, then a bunch of people that are challenged with their weight because of toxicity and their food choices and the marketing.
37:40
I mean, it's your fault, but it's not your fault.
37:43
Life conveniences.
37:45
Yeah, it's the way society has trained us to be.
37:47
And that's why we're creating a movement.
37:49
We're creating a movement to get back to nature,
37:51
to get back to looking like you naturally would
37:55
outside of these toxins.
37:57
So we're all created, evolved.
38:00
It really doesn't matter your method of belief up to it.
38:03
You're not gonna make this better than it is right now.
38:06
So then how do we focus on to get the optimal optimization
38:10
out of what we have.
38:11
Yeah.
38:12
And yeah, that's awesome.
38:14
I don't know how people can say that seed oils aren't bad,
38:17
that sugar isn't bad and that people fight this.
38:20
And some of the studies are now being debunked.
38:22
They're funded by pharma.
38:23
We know this, right?
38:24
It's just human nature.
38:25
We wanna drive economy.
38:27
Men and women, men mostly want power.
38:30
You know, they want that.
38:32
They have big egos.
38:35
And unfortunately that has got into our medical system
38:38
from the very beginning.
38:40
It's an economic engine.
38:41
It's not to get us back to nature.
38:43
It's not to get us connected to nature and God again.
38:47
It's not to get us connected to our bodies, getting our hearts connected again, being
38:51
able to look outside and be like, man, that's beautiful, right?
38:55
How many people have that opportunity today?
38:57
They're so disconnected because of their phone.
39:00
They can't notice.
39:02
That's not just a leaf.
39:03
There's a shadow there.
39:05
And I'm not going to name it.
39:06
I'm just going to feel it.
39:08
I'm going to feel what that emotion of looking at nature is.
39:12
And that will change you.
39:14
That'll connect you to a divine energy that you may have not experienced.
39:19
Then you might even realize that that divine energy loves you and wants good for you and not bad.
39:24
And he's not trying to kill you or discipline you and beat you down, but trying to speak life into you and wants you to grow like a vine.
39:33
And it's in you to heal.
39:34
And it's all there.
39:35
It's all there.
39:36
How do we do it?
39:38
You know, that's the answer.
39:39
That's the question.
39:41
When you kind of sit back and think about it, it's like there's no better feeling than fixing yourself when you can do it for yourself.
39:49
And that's what training is.
39:51
Nobody grabs your arm and starts lifting weights for you.
39:55
You have to do it all yourself.
39:56
You have to get up.
39:57
You have to prepare for it.
39:58
You have to put yourself through it.
40:00
You have to be comfortable with being uncomfortable because it's not comfortable when you're going to fatigue.
40:07
Yeah, or you're trying to learn something new.
40:09
And you can't get discouraged if you can't do it.
40:12
But in the end, the reward that you get when you can do it to yourself, I don't think there's a better feeling than that.
40:17
It's a great feeling.
40:19
You did it.
40:20
You did it to you.
40:22
and you probably aren't doing what you were told to do before that kind of led you into where you
40:28
were needing to do something different and create a change to get your life back it's beautiful bro
40:35
well do you have chickens right yeah i got 14 yeah so you're you've moved into the non-toxic
40:41
lifestyle um you understand toxic big garden uh 60 foot by 40 foot i'm jealous yeah i'm trying
40:50
a farm on the side of a mountain and fighting grasshoppers, rats, squirrels.
40:55
Mine was a groundhog, and I finally got my groundhog.
40:59
I named him Joe Burrow.
41:00
He was burrowing under, and I didn't have okra for about three years,
41:05
and I finally trapped him this year.
41:07
Well, we'll just say you safely trapped him and relocated him.
41:10
I did.
41:10
I did.
41:10
I had way too much respect for the guy.
41:12
You loved that.
41:13
He's a smart groundhog.
41:14
Oh, man, that guy, his gene pool needed to stay around.
41:17
Genius.
41:18
Genius groundhog.
41:20
I would have felt terrible if I ended up.
41:23
I battled that guy for three years.
41:25
He earned my respect.
41:26
He's smart.
41:27
Squirrels are smart, too, man.
41:28
But, man, I should have ate him because there was probably nothing in my backyard that ate anything better than what he had been eating.
41:35
So I probably should have ate him.
41:36
It's a free-range groundhog.
41:37
It's a free-range.
41:39
I probably should have ate him, but I didn't.
41:41
My question is that being said.
41:43
So my question is, being that you're part of the movement, gardening, barefoot, sunshine, low-tox living, out of the five pillars that I talk about and things that you're eating, ingestion, breathing, putting on your skin, mindset, energy and frequencies like EMF, what do you think is the most dangerous toxin out of all those things?
42:07
And if you have one, what would it be?
42:10
Sugar.
42:11
Sugar?
42:12
100%.
42:13
toxic congestion.
42:15
Why?
42:16
Just the inflammation response, the response that it does to your brain,
42:21
the impulse that it creates within you, the constant need for something else.
42:26
I mean,
42:26
it pretty much creates some sort of hyperactivity for you that doesn't allow you to settle down and
42:32
focus.
42:33
And without focus in life, how are you going to reflect on things that you've done that
42:37
were mistakes to not make mistakes again?
42:39
How are you going to then have the attention span for
42:42
that how are you going to make a change you know i think sugar just feeds sugar you want more sugar
42:48
i don't think sugar is the worst drug out there it it's you know in the research it has that
42:54
that response that you know dopamine serotonin response equal to cocaine yeah even even more
43:02
they've done studies on rats and i think the rats preferred the sugar more than the cocaine
43:07
yeah that's a real study they were going through like electrical fields to get zapped to get that
43:11
sugar and they wouldn't do that for the Coke.
43:16
No, they wouldn't.
43:17
And they wouldn't.
43:18
And if it was
43:20
sugar in its natural form, you know, a nice juicy, you know, organic apple, they would have
43:24
take that processed sugar all day long, you know, so that's... Yeah, we're not far away from that.
43:30
And so we're a bunch of rats living in America because we will ignore truth.
43:35
We'll ignore
43:36
the things that are healthy for us to run to that processed sugar because we're so addicted to it.
43:41
And, you know, we can't wait to go home and get a tub of ice cream or whatever, whatever it is.
43:48
And then once that wears off, you need more.
43:51
Yeah.
43:51
It's not how our bodies were meant to burn.
43:53
It's not.
43:54
At least you're doing a no fat diet.
43:56
Yeah.
43:58
Well, that was a big push now, wasn't it?
44:00
That was a big push.
44:02
The no fat movement was.
44:04
You need a bag of gummy bears to not have any fat.
44:08
I grew up in the 90s, bro.
44:10
Late 80s, 74, right?
44:12
So I remember in 84, 10 years old, I was chunky and my mom was low fat.
44:19
I believe in crystal light because I believe in me, right?
44:22
I think I probably drank a 12-pack of Mountain Dew every week when I was a kid.
44:28
Didn't know no better.
44:29
Orange Crush.
44:30
I remember I used to love that stuff.
44:32
We didn't have Coke or soda at our house, but the neighbor did on the hill.
44:36
And I used to love being his friend.
44:38
Bring me down an Orange Crush.
44:39
Let me get some airheads and some, you know, Sprite and Mountain Dew.
44:45
Oh, well, you know, the good thing is you go through that stuff and you learn about it later in life and you don't do it anymore.
44:50
There wasn't glyphosate back then, though.
44:52
Yeah.
44:52
Yeah.
44:53
So we had a different toxic load.
44:54
But if you had it, so moving on, if there's a concern you have about the world, right?
44:59
One that's like, man, this has got an end.
45:03
A greatest concern you have in the world that really, really bothers you.
45:08
And, you know, quote unquote, keeps you up at night, even though I know that you like sleep too much to let something keep you up at night.
45:15
And if you could help that concern to help humanity, what would that be?
45:18
The false perception of living to others' expectations, trying to compare yourself to everybody else, trying to live to somebody else's standards.
45:28
I think if you just had a steady set of principles and focused on yourself and not worry about everybody else, then you're going to get well because that's where your focus and attention is.
45:42
I think there's a lot of outside distractions for that.
45:45
I think that's what helps push that market.
45:51
Let's try to look like somebody else.
45:53
Let's try to be as fast as somebody else.
45:55
Let's try to do the commercial route.
46:01
And I don't think the commercial route is sustainable for longevity.
46:07
No.
46:08
And I think the commercial route kind of creates these perceptions for us to want to live in.
46:14
And it might not have been the answer you were looking for, but I think that's the biggest issue out there.
46:21
in the public is trying to live to somebody else's expectations rather than what do I got to do to
46:29
make myself healthy and happy.
46:32
And just focus on that.
46:33
Healthy and happy.
46:34
They work together.
46:36
You can't eat a bunch of sugar and be happy.
46:37
You might be happy for a moment, but then what?
46:40
You're
46:40
going to crash and want more.
46:41
And then what?
46:42
You're going to look in the mirror and see something that
46:44
you're not happy with and be depressed.
46:46
And then what?
46:46
You're going to see somebody on TV that's
46:48
that's jacked and no, I got to be like that or else I'm worthless.
46:51
I think those perceptions
46:53
are kind of what tie us down.
46:54
Yeah.
46:55
It's a big waste of energy, right?
46:57
I think that,
46:59
I think I naturally care maybe a little bit less than what most people would, but in general,
47:08
what I've learned over time is if I'm worried about what someone thinks of me or what they're
47:15
going to think if I say this, I mean, you got to have care and concern.
47:18
I mean, you got to be smart
47:19
with the words that your choice, it is your words either create life or destroy it.
47:24
So it's not like
47:25
I'll say something and not care what, what you think.
47:28
But if I'm sharing my heart and sharing
47:30
truth and I'm going to be like, and you're in this podcast, you could walk away and being like, oh,
47:34
I wish I would have done this.
47:34
I wouldn't like, no, I shared what I shared.
47:37
I learned from what
47:38
I shared and I'm not going to waste another moment of energy worrying about the past.
47:44
I'm
47:44
worrying about what I can do right now in this moment to make the world a better place, to make
47:48
myself a better human.
47:50
I'm not going to waste time.
47:51
If I'm unhappy with myself, I'm not going
47:53
to beat myself up over how I look.
47:56
Either I'm going to do something about it or I'm going to
47:57
accept myself for where I'm at.
47:59
But worrying about it or comparing myself, any of that energy could
48:04
actually be, I could use that as motivation, obviously.
48:08
Like I can get motivated and say,
48:09
whoa, Barbara really changed her life.
48:14
She had the same chronic condition.
48:15
She had diabetes.
48:16
She had hypothyroid, right?
48:18
And there's all these testimonies on here.
48:19
And then, wow, I can do it too.
48:22
And sometimes we need that inspiration,
48:25
not just motivation, but being inspired that,
48:27
hey, my body can heal.
48:28
My body, I can get out of pain.
48:31
I think that's powerful, but you're right.
48:33
This world of the comparison trap
48:36
is a big waste of energy.
48:38
Imagine how much energy-
48:39
That's what puts people out from getting healthy again, because they don't think they can do it because it's too much work.
48:45
But it's not.
48:46
And you got to start sooner or later.
48:48
Yeah.
48:50
You got to light the fuse of your destiny.
48:52
People don't, gyms aren't a bad thing.
48:53
I'm not here to talk about gyms being a bad thing.
48:55
Gyms are a great thing.
48:56
It's great to go out there and move.
48:58
It's great to tax your body.
49:00
It's great to push yourself to the limit.
49:02
But a lot of people, and you see it come the new year, you know, let's get that resolution intact.
49:08
And then by March, I mean, you're running at 25% what the gym was seeing in January.
49:16
And I think that's the discouragement, you know, that they're not getting to where they want to get to.
49:23
Well, it's inspiration versus motivation.
49:25
Like for me, what kept me going was my kids.
49:27
So you got to find something that you're inspired for that.
49:31
You can be motivated to do it for a short amount of time.
49:33
But what's that inspiration?
49:34
What's this goal?
49:35
Where do I want to be?
49:36
And I think that's where goals come in.
49:38
I'm like, I need to be able to play with my children, roughhouse with them, throw them in the air.
49:42
And with my back feeling like this, I'm missing out on a massive piece of life that I want to enjoy.
49:49
And they're going to miss out on their daddy being strong, throwing them around.
49:52
So I was not just motivated.
49:54
I was inspired till I could get to that end point.
49:57
Now I can putting my shoulder, you know, my little kids on my shoulders to hurt my neck so bad.
50:01
Like I can do all those things again because I did it for the right reason.
50:06
I wanted to do it something bigger than just to look good.
50:09
It was to move in a functional way so that I could show up for my family.
50:15
And it was, that's what did it for me.
50:18
Would that have happened if you only did half of that though?
50:21
Like if you didn't incorporate the whole picture, if you didn't begin to eat healthier.
50:25
Now we're talking about exercise and fitness, but if you didn't have that component.
50:29
Already in place, yeah.
50:31
I mean, it's a full circle thing.
50:32
You got to do it all.
50:33
Yeah, I wouldn't be able to be too inflamed to work out.
50:35
I'd be too sick to work out.
50:37
I might be so stressed out.
50:38
I couldn't add another stress, which is working out.
50:40
You wouldn't get into beyond that motivation into inspire because you probably would be distracted by other things from sugar consumption.
50:48
Yeah, trying to burn off your calories.
50:50
Exactly.
50:51
Bryce, stop wearing flip-flops.
50:55
Gross.
50:55
Tell us why.
50:56
Gross.
50:56
Why not?
50:58
It's the opposite of your pattern to walk.
51:00
It totally goes against what muscles turn on, what muscles allow us to move the foot and the ankle.
51:09
In a position where your toes should be up, they're down.
51:13
In a position where your calf should be lengthened, it's shortened, which then shuts our tibialis off, which then really reinforces the quad dominant.
51:22
And I would imagine a lot of people with flip-flops have hammer toe issues because you're curling the toes to catch it.
51:31
And you probably also have knee and hip issues and back issues because of that, too, because it just doesn't stop there.
51:36
Like we talked about before, that tumbleweed effect.
51:39
Well, what made me mad is you looked at my feet and you go, you got hammer toe.
51:44
And I never thought that I had hammer toe.
51:47
And he says, do you wear flip-flops?
51:48
And I'm like, yeah, you're gripping your flip-flop because it's not, you don't want to fall off your foot.
51:54
So you're unconsciously gripping to hold the flip-flop on, causing these beautiful feet.
52:00
You're creating the pattern.
52:01
Yeah.
52:02
So what you tell yourself is who you are.
52:04
Don't make that face or it'll stick is what your mom used to say.
52:07
Right.
52:08
Well, if you make that face with your toes, that pattern's going to stick.
52:11
No more flip-flops.
52:12
No more flip-flops.
52:13
No more hammer toe.
52:13
Throw the flip-flops away.
52:15
I hit the camera.
52:16
