- 1:33Speaker 2: weekly questions from the fans. And that's what we're going
- 1:36Speaker 2: to dive into. This what we like to immediately dive into.
- 1:39Speaker 2: And right here, Nick, are you feeling any better? I
- 1:45Speaker 2: want to ask a question. Sometimes there's there are different
- 1:49Speaker 2: ways to understand the same situation, like two sides A
- 1:53Speaker 2: and B. The difference the different understandings can lead to
- 1:58Speaker 2: completely different ways of handling things. So so how can
- 2:03Speaker 2: you tell tell which understanding is correct? Is more correct?
- 2:10Speaker 1: Probably by the way the ones that fits you you
- 2:11Speaker 1: the best. Yeah, you know, there's there's many different forms.
- 2:16Speaker 1: It's the one that works for you. Use the only
- 2:18Speaker 1: thing that matters. It's the findings that you get give
- 2:23Speaker 1: you the results that you're looking for. That's the only
- 2:25Speaker 1: thing that matter. End of the day, there's no more
- 2:30Speaker 1: right and there's no more wrong is the result in
- 2:33Speaker 1: the end? Judge things, but being right all the time
- 2:39Speaker 1: and it's not quite right. Yeah, but dead lests three
- 2:42Speaker 1: hundred pounds more than you do. That makes them stronger.
- 2:48Speaker 1: That's what it's all about. So it's not necessarily the
- 2:52Speaker 1: right or wrong. There's many different ways to solve a puzzle,
- 2:57Speaker 1: but it's the one that you can. It's the way
- 2:59Speaker 1: you can find solve the puzzle the fastest for you. Yep,
- 3:05Speaker 1: it's just like anything else.
- 3:07Speaker 2: That's it. I think it's the best way to go
- 3:10Speaker 2: at it. And yeah, this one right here is from
- 3:14Speaker 2: Big West pronounced big West. We actually got to meet
- 3:19Speaker 2: him at the Myrtle Beach, says Hi Nick. It was
- 3:23Speaker 2: great to meet you at Myrtle Beach a few weeks ago.
- 3:26Speaker 2: I'm still getting caught up on the past episode, so
- 3:29Speaker 2: I apologize if you've already covered this. What are your
- 3:34Speaker 2: thoughts on Casey protein powder? A few months ago, I
- 3:38Speaker 2: started taking it before bed, and I've noticed less muscle
- 3:42Speaker 2: soreness and feeling much better recovered for my next workout.
- 3:48Speaker 1: I think, answer your own problem, answer your own question.
- 3:52Speaker 1: I mean, yeah, like I said, everybody wants to search
- 3:57Speaker 1: for something. You find something good that works for them,
- 4:01Speaker 1: not the one still search for something better to start
- 4:05Speaker 1: really necessarily searching for something better to what you're doing
- 4:09Speaker 1: is working anymore? So, if I don't know a whole
- 4:16Speaker 1: lot about that type of protein, protein powder. But if
- 4:19Speaker 1: you wake up feeling and you wake up feeling less
- 4:24Speaker 1: anything else since introduced introduced that into your diet, that's
- 4:32Speaker 1: a that that's a pretty indication. Oh yeah, it works
- 4:36Speaker 1: for you. So can you do it? Yeah?
- 4:41Speaker 2: And I'll throw on my own two cents because, uh,
- 4:44Speaker 2: you know, a protein is something that I'm very familiar
- 4:46Speaker 2: with because just just like with nick, you know what
- 4:48Speaker 2: I'm saying, you you eat it, you drink it, you
- 4:50Speaker 2: you know, there's so many things, but caseine protein is
- 4:53Speaker 2: a longer digesting protein. It's specifically designed for night. So
- 4:57Speaker 2: what ends up happening is you're getting a longer feed
- 5:00Speaker 2: period and a slower absorption through the night with caseine.
- 5:04Speaker 2: You know what I'm saying, You're because like with normal
- 5:06Speaker 2: wave protein, isolated way protein, your body's meant to absorb
- 5:10Speaker 2: it much faster and to digest it much faster. And
- 5:12Speaker 2: caseine protein, guess what it does. It's a slower digesting
- 5:15Speaker 2: So guess what you're You're it's almost like you're slightly
- 5:18Speaker 2: being fedter fed longer through the night without overdoing it.
- 5:22Speaker 1: Which is allow you to wake up feeling better and
- 5:26Speaker 1: healing better. Yep. So I would say stick with it, Bud, exactly.
- 5:32Speaker 2: I would say the same thing, you know, and uh,
- 5:34Speaker 2: a good flavor goes a long way, you know what
- 5:39Speaker 2: I'm saying.
- 5:40Speaker 3: Little blood in there, that's it all right?
- 5:46Speaker 2: And uh, Nick, we got a couple of questions for
- 5:48Speaker 2: your surgery. Nick. After years of competing through pain, what
- 5:53Speaker 2: was the exact moment you realize the hips surgery could
- 5:56Speaker 2: no longer be put off.
- 6:03Speaker 1: I was just kind of getting to the point where
- 6:05Speaker 1: I just couldn't do do things that I could normally
- 6:09Speaker 1: do ridiculously eat easily, and not being able to tie
- 6:14Speaker 1: my shoes, not being able to get down, having to
- 6:22Speaker 1: completely get into mindset where you didn't care how bad
- 6:25Speaker 1: it hurt. Yeah, before you went to train, you knew
- 6:32Speaker 1: it was time. And then I was doing press and
- 6:36Speaker 1: I could feel the thing moving in and out of socket. Yeah.
- 6:42Speaker 1: I was like, all right, I'm doing this with a
- 6:44Speaker 1: fifteen hundred pounds leg press, you know, and I can
- 6:48Speaker 1: feel it moving that. That can't be good. It's time. Yeah. Yeah,
- 6:53Speaker 1: I'll just tired of hurting. And the doctor told me
- 6:56Speaker 1: that it's going to come a day where you're just
- 6:58Speaker 1: tired of feeling the paint yep, and then we'll fix it.
- 7:02Speaker 1: And so we did.
- 7:03Speaker 2: There we go, There we go.
- 7:05Speaker 3: Next questions, Oh, go ahead, Nick, No, it's no, it's fine, Okay.
- 7:11Speaker 2: What kind of pain were were you dealing with with
- 7:15Speaker 2: day with the daily before the surgery that fans never
- 7:19Speaker 2: really truly saw behind the scenes.
- 7:23Speaker 1: Yeah, I'd be limping everywhere, especially the first two or
- 7:28Speaker 1: three days after legs. Yeah, and I was just moving
- 7:33Speaker 1: like everything hurt, and it did. It just hurt.
- 7:36Speaker 2: Get things when expos and you know, after Worlds you
- 7:41Speaker 2: know what I'm saying, because you're on your feet so
- 7:42Speaker 2: much long, because you know, I'm behind the scenes with
- 7:45Speaker 2: you on a lot of these things, so I get,
- 7:46Speaker 2: you know, unfortunately I have I'm there to witness it
- 7:49Speaker 2: and have to you know, be I'm there with you
- 7:51Speaker 2: going through it.
- 7:52Speaker 1: Yeah. So it was just it was getting pretty bad. No,
- 7:57Speaker 1: and I'd feel bad. I couldn't like go to deadlift
- 8:01Speaker 1: and through the bar up you know, two extra inches
- 8:07Speaker 1: for me just to grab it off the floor anymore. Yeah,
- 8:12Speaker 1: stuff like that.
- 8:12Speaker 2: So okay, here we go. Mentality. What was the hardest
- 8:18Speaker 2: preparation for Worlds Strongest Man? Competing or preparing for uh,
- 8:23Speaker 2: you know, preparing for a double hip surgery replacement. You
- 8:25Speaker 2: know what I'm saying, Like in that mentality of you
- 8:28Speaker 2: doing all.
- 8:28Speaker 1: This, okay, well tellity, going into a world strongest man,
- 8:38Speaker 1: You're gonna set up a plan, You're gonna execute your plan,
- 8:41Speaker 1: find out all the information is a much as you
- 8:44Speaker 1: can as fast as you can. You just execute your
- 8:48Speaker 1: training program based on that, and you don't go over,
- 8:55Speaker 1: you don't go under. You just do it exactly what
- 8:59Speaker 1: you're planning. And yeah, setting up and planning a hip
- 9:04Speaker 1: a double hip replacement surgery, which I don't recommend people do. Yeah,
- 9:11Speaker 1: it is so much easier to do one at it,
- 9:14Speaker 1: one at a time. But my dog thought I could
- 9:18Speaker 1: handle it. And he's like, look did he get it done?
- 9:23Speaker 1: Healing and then three to six months later coming back
- 9:28Speaker 1: and doing this again. Yeah, just get it done all
- 9:31Speaker 1: at once. Once you healed, your healed, yep. I was
- 9:35Speaker 1: like sold. Yeah, So I will say the first five
- 9:42Speaker 1: days are way more difficult, uh doing to doing too
- 9:49Speaker 1: to the time, Yeah, doing both of them. Yeah, at
- 9:54Speaker 1: the same time. You gotta be a tough SB.
- 9:58Speaker 3: If you're going But you know what I'm saying, sometimes,
- 10:03Speaker 3: you know what I'm saying.
- 10:04Speaker 2: What's the biggest thing too, is like you know, you
- 10:06Speaker 2: don't know until you do it, and then it's it's because,
- 10:09Speaker 2: like I said, everything sounded on the up and up.
- 10:12Speaker 2: You know, we went into the surgery with a complete
- 10:14Speaker 2: game plan, but not also to you know what I'm saying.
- 10:18Speaker 2: Once they got in there, they found out your bone
- 10:20Speaker 2: density was off the charts and you're built different.
- 10:24Speaker 1: Yeah. The surgery itself ended up taking two extra hours. Yeah.
- 10:31Speaker 2: So it went from a three hour surgery.
- 10:35Speaker 1: To a five forty five minute surgery. Yeah. So, and
- 10:39Speaker 1: I apologize to everybody for the hiccups the intubating. I've
- 10:46Speaker 1: been dealing with these for eight days now, and every
- 10:49Speaker 1: time you get intubated, they get the hiccups. Now yeah,
- 10:54Speaker 1: like a week or two weeks, and it's not fun,
- 10:58Speaker 1: but it's funny. Oh yeah. So basically, you got you
- 11:06Speaker 1: got to set up a plan. Things happened we didn't expect,
- 11:11Speaker 1: so the swelling in certain areas it was a lot worse.
- 11:14Speaker 1: He took two hours to change to the chisel off.
- 11:20Speaker 2: Chisel. They didn't go in there with sandpaper.
- 11:26Speaker 1: No, the chisel off. All the bone gross and stuff
- 11:32Speaker 1: and and uh it really. It took him a while.
- 11:38Speaker 1: So I got out. I got out and the bone
- 11:41Speaker 1: paint was immediate. Yeah, you know, and I didn't think
- 11:45Speaker 1: it would hurt that far down, but then you realize
- 11:48Speaker 1: how far they drill down into your thigh. Yeah, bang
- 11:53Speaker 1: that insert in and it's only it goes so far down.
- 11:57Speaker 1: It's only maybe four or five inches above my knee. Yeah.
- 12:03Speaker 2: Well for even for what you're planning on doing with
- 12:06Speaker 2: those hips, Yeah, the strength that it's probably needed in
- 12:10Speaker 2: there to just accommodate your size period. You know what
- 12:14Speaker 2: I'm saying, because you know, like you're you're you're not
- 12:16Speaker 2: one hundred and twenty five pound woman, or you're not
- 12:18Speaker 2: even hundred and fifty pounds man, You're you're three hundred
- 12:21Speaker 2: pounds solid.
- 12:23Speaker 1: Yeah. So but it's good. It's but day before you
- 12:30Speaker 1: start making you start rounding that corner. Yeah, I mean
- 12:34Speaker 1: the first three days you're really trying to keep your
- 12:37Speaker 1: head up. It's pretty discouraging. Moving it all is brutal. Yeah.
- 12:43Speaker 1: I couldn't sit in a wheelchair, yeah, you know, I
- 12:47Speaker 1: could barely. I can stand move around very slowly with
- 12:51Speaker 1: a walker. Yeah. And then something clicked up on day
- 12:57Speaker 1: four and it just it was just easier. There we
- 13:01Speaker 1: go and the day five and day six, in the
- 13:06Speaker 1: day seven, all these little things just started getting easier.
- 13:10Speaker 1: I was walking three hundred feet five hundred feet. Today
- 13:15Speaker 1: I walked about eight hundred feet, which is great. Yeah,
- 13:20Speaker 1: plus doing all the exercises, and then today today I
- 13:26Speaker 1: just decided to try and managed to get out of
- 13:30Speaker 1: bed myself and then get back into bed myself, So
- 13:36Speaker 1: that was awesome. And then the biggest thing is trying
- 13:41Speaker 1: to sit on the come up, come up, come home
- 13:45Speaker 1: and be able to get down it and not get stuck.
- 13:49Speaker 1: And today I was finally able to do that. They
- 13:53Speaker 1: have a razor raising the advice that goes over it, Yeah,
- 13:57Speaker 1: and I was actually able to sit on that and
- 14:00Speaker 1: do that. So that's two big thing supports me being
- 14:04Speaker 1: able to go home and so but I mean there's
- 14:09Speaker 1: still a lot of work to be done here. Yeah,
- 14:12Speaker 1: we're just getting it. The rehab exercises, the rehab movements
- 14:17Speaker 1: and stuff like that that are very crucial. Yeah, and
- 14:21Speaker 1: I really don't want to miss it out. I'm just
- 14:24Speaker 1: trying to be the best person that's had a double
- 14:30Speaker 1: himpy placement they've ever had to deal with. Yeah, you know,
- 14:34Speaker 1: which the there's two of the rehab guys that are
- 14:40Speaker 1: pretty darn cool. All of them cool bit too. Daryl
- 14:45Speaker 1: works with me a lot of them technique. And he
- 14:50Speaker 1: just sits there and looks at me and shakes his head. Yeah,
- 14:52Speaker 1: because I'm doing things. He goes, Yeah, I didn't expect
- 14:56Speaker 1: you to do that.
- 14:58Speaker 2: Yeah. Well, you know, Nick, you're a little bit of
- 15:01Speaker 2: an overachiever. And also, like you know, this ain't your
- 15:05Speaker 2: first rodeo in rehab and recovery.
- 15:08Speaker 1: I know, but it's like the difference is so is
- 15:12Speaker 1: knowing when I'm pushing to the pain and I'm going
- 15:16Speaker 1: through a movement just annoying, when I'm pushing and doing
- 15:23Speaker 1: something that is okay or go over the edge and
- 15:27Speaker 1: causing damage. And I know right where to stop, yep,
- 15:32Speaker 1: at that edge. And if I gain a little bit
- 15:37Speaker 1: a little bit of movement one day, that's good. I stopped.
- 15:41Speaker 1: I can prove tomorrow I want to leave room and
- 15:45Speaker 1: leave something I think, yep, to improve the next day. Anyway,
- 15:49Speaker 1: So I feel pretty happy about it.
- 15:52Speaker 2: That's good. That's good.
- 15:54Speaker 1: Oh No.
- 15:55Speaker 2: So, and and here's the thing is that even with
- 15:59Speaker 2: your VID, you know, we posted a little video yesterday.
- 16:01Speaker 2: You you get in that physical therapy in we're getting
- 16:04Speaker 2: a lot of positive results. Everyone's throwing the good energy
- 16:06Speaker 2: your way. And you know, and even to the purpose
- 16:10Speaker 2: of this episode is to give everyone an update because
- 16:12Speaker 2: you know the world is wondering what is going on,
- 16:15Speaker 2: and you know what I'm saying, And guess what, You're
- 16:18Speaker 2: on the right track. You're right on the right path.
- 16:20Speaker 2: You're you're doing the rehab, You're getting better.
- 16:23Speaker 1: You know what I'm saying.
- 16:24Speaker 2: What's the next biggest goal? Is getting home? The biggest goal?
- 16:27Speaker 2: Or is what's what's the next goal that you're trying
- 16:29Speaker 2: to hit with everything going on at the very second.
- 16:32Speaker 1: The next goal for me, the next goal I want
- 16:36Speaker 1: I want to hit is walking without the walker.
- 16:39Speaker 2: There we go.
- 16:42Speaker 1: Once I can do that, even you no getting homes
- 16:46Speaker 1: the goal, which yeah, I know I'm gonna good to
- 16:49Speaker 1: that point. I know it's anywhere between three days and
- 16:53Speaker 1: seven days away. Yeah, that part's okay. The goal I
- 17:00Speaker 1: want to do is I want to be able to
- 17:01Speaker 1: like literally walk out of this place without the walker.
- 17:05Speaker 1: That's what I'm talking and so yeah, and David had
- 17:10Speaker 1: me on the side. He was like, all right, hot Rod,
- 17:15Speaker 1: David's the guy that filmed the yeah He's down video
- 17:19Speaker 1: for me. He was, come over here, hold under the
- 17:22Speaker 1: rail with one hand. Yeah, So I felt like a
- 17:27Speaker 1: little kid learning how to real estate and holding under
- 17:30Speaker 1: the rail and trying trying to skate. And I went
- 17:33Speaker 1: a link to like fifteen feet and he made me
- 17:36Speaker 1: turn around and hold it the other hand and go
- 17:39Speaker 1: back the other way. Yeah, he's sitting there smiling looking.
- 17:44Speaker 1: He goes, you're not that far away.
- 17:46Speaker 2: There you go, there you go.
- 17:47Speaker 1: So it's cool. Everything's gonna come in time. I came
- 17:52Speaker 1: into this. I took Jerry Pritchett's advice, yeah, and came
- 17:56Speaker 1: into this literally as strong as possible, you know, going
- 17:59Speaker 1: up the eight oh five and exactly the nice squad
- 18:04Speaker 1: was something so many before.
- 18:07Speaker 2: Was still looking good, Nick, you're a perfectionist. But at
- 18:10Speaker 2: the same time with bad hips. That was a solid
- 18:12Speaker 2: eight pounds.
- 18:13Speaker 1: With bad hips, true, thank you, but oh a pretty satisfied,
- 18:23Speaker 1: pretty hard. That's where I'm man. I got a lot
- 18:25Speaker 1: of people coming to visit me, so that's that's pretty cool.
- 18:30Speaker 1: You know, incompass health, incompass self has been nothing but
- 18:34Speaker 1: great here. I mean, this place is way better than
- 18:37Speaker 1: the place that my mom went to for her car
- 18:43Speaker 1: a car accident. They let me participate in my on
- 18:49Speaker 1: recover kind of like what I want to do. One
- 18:51Speaker 1: of my goals are big thing is my food and
- 18:55Speaker 1: my diet. They actually allowed me to tell them what
- 19:01Speaker 1: I eat, how much, how little, that type of stuff.
- 19:04Speaker 1: I've had big input on that.
- 19:06Speaker 2: That's good.
- 19:09Speaker 1: Yeah, that's made a massive difference. And the staff's great.
- 19:13Speaker 1: All the management of the stuff comes by and visits
- 19:18Speaker 1: to everybody's room like every every day.
- 19:21Speaker 2: That's good.
- 19:23Speaker 1: So it's pretty cool when you have a complaint, when
- 19:25Speaker 1: you have a need, when when you haven't want they'll
- 19:28Speaker 1: do the best they can take care take care of it.
- 19:33Speaker 1: I mean they even got a fan.
- 19:35Speaker 2: From my room right now.
- 19:40Speaker 1: I know you.
- 19:43Speaker 2: All the way on.
- 19:45Speaker 1: But everybody I've counted in the staff is very knowledgeable
- 19:50Speaker 1: or they're willing to listen to my opinion on what
- 19:55Speaker 1: I think on something else. There's been a couple of
- 19:59Speaker 1: times we're going to talk to some of the staff
- 20:02Speaker 1: and they've asked me a couple of questions on when
- 20:05Speaker 1: I think of this or what I think of that. Well,
- 20:08Speaker 1: this is gonna work great because that's going to touch
- 20:11Speaker 1: to real life. I don't. I don't think this one
- 20:13Speaker 1: is gonna apply much because we don't do that anywhere,
- 20:19Speaker 1: you know, And this place was so well designed. I
- 20:22Speaker 1: mean they even have a walker course. You got in
- 20:29Speaker 1: the courtyard. You gotta walk up steps, you gotta walk
- 20:33Speaker 1: down steps to go up a grade, down a grade
- 20:36Speaker 1: around Gravelly area. It's pretty cool to get you to
- 20:41Speaker 1: teach you know, your stability and stuff like that. They're
- 20:47Speaker 1: right there with you to make sure you don't follow
- 20:48Speaker 1: and everything else. I mean, I was gonna say, the
- 20:53Speaker 1: place is on top of it. They each have kind
- 20:56Speaker 1: of like different jobs, and there's occupational therapists that helps
- 21:02Speaker 1: training in real life. Like it taught me how to
- 21:05Speaker 1: put on my socks yep, you underwear on, how to
- 21:13Speaker 1: you know, take a shower, how to do all that stuff,
- 21:18Speaker 1: and so it's pretty neat all the way around. Then
- 21:20Speaker 1: you got to get the physical therapist and a stretching
- 21:26Speaker 1: one and all kinds of stuff.
- 21:30Speaker 2: When you mentioned stretching is your mobility, And like I said,
- 21:34Speaker 2: I know they're still swelling. I know there's still what's
- 21:36Speaker 2: called but do you feel a little bit more mobility
- 21:38Speaker 2: in the hips now that now that they've been replaced
- 21:42Speaker 2: until you know, you're just still kind of checking on it.
- 21:45Speaker 1: Yeah. It was funny today. I was standing there and
- 21:49Speaker 1: I spread out my feet a little bit, what wider, Yeah,
- 21:52Speaker 1: and I used to do like hip circles. Yeah, you know,
- 21:56Speaker 1: I just kind of pushed my hips going to the right. Yeah, Nick,
- 22:00Speaker 1: my hip's going to circle to the left. And I
- 22:02Speaker 1: started doing that, and I realized I'm not touching on anything. Yeah,
- 22:09Speaker 1: stopping it smooth and it doesn't hurt. Yeah, effort. Listen.
- 22:13Speaker 1: I nearly cried when I did that. Was it's just crazy.
- 22:17Speaker 1: It's pretty crazy. Yeah. So I was very happy with
- 22:22Speaker 1: that sittle east.
- 22:24Speaker 2: Yeah, well I'll tell you right now, Nick, it sounds
- 22:26Speaker 2: like everything's on the right path and you know what
- 22:28Speaker 2: I'm saying, And everything's going in the right direction, so
- 22:31Speaker 2: we can keep that momentum, you know what I'm saying.
- 22:33Speaker 2: I didn't want to hold you on for too long
- 22:35Speaker 2: because I was originally just doing fifteen. But you know
- 22:37Speaker 2: what I'm saying, I know with the hiccups, yeah, and
- 22:41Speaker 2: with the hiccups, you know, I know it's a little difficult,
- 22:43Speaker 2: So I didn't want to put too much strain on there.
- 22:44Speaker 2: But I think this is a pretty good place to
- 22:47Speaker 2: stop that for everyone. Just giving a quick update, check
