- 3:54Speaker 2: I have a routine at my house. You know, I'm
- 3:57Speaker 2: intermittent baths. I'll eat till two, but between ten and
- 4:00Speaker 2: eleven thirty, I always make my own coffee, okay, And
- 4:04Speaker 2: it's part of my routine, and it's part of the
- 4:07Speaker 2: thing that really helps me listen. It got me through
- 4:10Speaker 2: so many things in that period. That hour period in
- 4:13Speaker 2: my day is when I write down all my goals,
- 4:15Speaker 2: I make my plans, I focus my life. And this
- 4:19Speaker 2: is the message I'm trying to send by partner and
- 4:21Speaker 2: with Starbucks on this, because it's really about these routines
- 4:25Speaker 2: that make you successful. You know what I mean, You're
- 4:27Speaker 2: exactly Listen. I go back to those lists that I
- 4:30Speaker 2: made when I was doing those coffee breaks, and I
- 4:33Speaker 2: hit every one of those goals. Brother, I'm trying to
- 4:37Speaker 2: tell you it's really magic.
- 4:39Speaker 1: I'm all about lists and I'm gonna try this flavor.
- 4:41Speaker 1: But real quick question. You said you do the internet
- 4:43Speaker 1: in fast and you go from when to when?
- 4:45Speaker 2: I go from two to ten pm? Two top eat
- 4:48Speaker 2: it too? And then I don't. I stopped eating by
- 4:51Speaker 2: ten pm? And when do you work out in the
- 4:54Speaker 2: morning early?
- 4:55Speaker 1: How do you deal with the energy and stuff?
- 4:57Speaker 2: It's crazy. My body is used to it, you know
- 4:59Speaker 2: what I'm saying?
- 5:00Speaker 1: Like you have can you have coffee? Like before you
- 5:03Speaker 1: work out? Can you have that at least just.
- 5:05Speaker 2: What I do? I usually have, like ef A drink bcas,
- 5:10Speaker 2: so you know, I put the bcas in my water
- 5:13Speaker 2: and that's it, you know what I mean. And I'm
- 5:15Speaker 2: drinking water all day.
- 5:16Speaker 1: And your energy's okay for the workout and everything.
- 5:18Speaker 2: Crazy, you know, but my biggest meal is at night,
- 5:21Speaker 2: so you know what I mean, I'm basically working out
- 5:24Speaker 2: on that. You know what I mean. Have you hooked
- 5:26Speaker 2: up and not been hungry you know what all the time?
- 5:28Speaker 1: Yeah, because I'd be crushing it and that's the way
- 5:31Speaker 1: I am. But I'd be eating all day. I got
- 5:33Speaker 1: everybody casting is so I've got so many people that
- 5:37Speaker 1: I know, and people in great shape like yourself do it,
- 5:39Speaker 1: and I'm just i gotta try it, just because I'm
- 5:42Speaker 1: not a little fat kid. Terry, I like to eat
- 5:44Speaker 1: all the time, but I'm always concerned, like in the morning,
- 5:46Speaker 1: like as far as my energy. But if you're telling
- 5:48Speaker 1: me your energy is fine, I guess. Yeah, you have
- 5:49Speaker 1: a big meal. You just kind of get up and
- 5:51Speaker 1: then we also, what time are you working out?
- 5:53Speaker 2: Early? Early in the morning, like Terry, I'm early. I'm
- 5:55Speaker 2: like five in the morning. Yeah.
- 5:57Speaker 1: Yeah, me too. I'm a little more like six thirty.
- 5:59Speaker 1: But still, yeah, I work.
- 6:00Speaker 2: Out on an empty stomach at five am?
- 6:01Speaker 1: Yeah, no, I guess I yeah, but then I immediately
- 6:03Speaker 1: after because then I'm starting. You don't eat till two,
- 6:06Speaker 1: so you don't even go with protein shake.
- 6:09Speaker 2: No, not at all, really no, I least the way
- 6:13Speaker 2: I do it. Man. And this is the thing because
- 6:16Speaker 2: but you feel okay, you feel okay, I feel great,
- 6:19Speaker 2: But I don't have to think about food. Yeah yeah, yeah, yeah,
- 6:22Speaker 2: you know what I mean. You're thinking about your life,
- 6:24Speaker 2: you know what you think about all these other things
- 6:25Speaker 2: you gotta do, and then by the time it becomes
- 6:27Speaker 2: two pm, you're like, oh, yeah, I gotta eat it.
- 6:30Speaker 2: To me, it's always good to be a little bit hungry,
- 6:32Speaker 2: you know what, I know. It does it keeps you.
- 6:34Speaker 1: So I'm sorry to ask any questions about this, but
- 6:36Speaker 1: so you eat at two pm, and then does that
- 6:38Speaker 1: mean you eat whenever you want up until ten or
- 6:40Speaker 1: do you have like a regiment like every three hours?
- 6:41Speaker 2: Or I tried to do that and you find it's
- 6:44Speaker 2: too much, you know, because you know, when you haven't eaten,
- 6:47Speaker 2: your stomach is smaller. So I have a small meal
- 6:51Speaker 2: and then I'll have a protein shake and then I
- 6:54Speaker 2: have start eating like regularly. But by that time, you know,
- 6:57Speaker 2: the day is gone. You know, this is thin. It's
- 7:00Speaker 2: about passing for me, it's more so, it's more. It's
- 7:03Speaker 2: not about just the body. It's about the discipline, Yes, discipline.
- 7:08Speaker 2: Everything that is within your reach is not meant to
- 7:10Speaker 2: be in your hand. You know what I'm saying. Yes,
- 7:12Speaker 2: it's like telling your body. No, you're going to do
- 7:15Speaker 2: it when I tell you, you do it. And it's a
- 7:18Speaker 2: ripple effect that affects everything in your life. You learn
- 7:21Speaker 2: how to turn things down, you learn how to say
- 7:24Speaker 2: no to stuff. You know. You can't listen to your body, man,
- 7:27Speaker 2: It'll always tell me the wrong thing, you know what
- 7:29Speaker 2: I mean. You have to tell yourself what you want,
- 7:33Speaker 2: and especially when your goal, when you when you have
- 7:36Speaker 2: goals and the whole thing. Sometimes and man, the right
- 7:39Speaker 2: decision sometimes doesn't feel good.
- 7:41Speaker 1: So one of my bodies, so one of my body says,
- 7:43Speaker 1: eat a third TwixT. I should be like, no, right,
- 7:47Speaker 1: but do but wait.
- 7:48Speaker 2: I do have those special times when it's like, all right,
- 7:51Speaker 2: here we go. I'm in the movie theater at the
- 7:55Speaker 2: same time exactly, you know, you have those moments where
- 7:58Speaker 2: you enjoy it. To me, it's about being mindful, you
- 8:01Speaker 2: know what I mean, Just knowing when you're going off
- 8:05Speaker 2: and you say, okay, I have allowed this time to
- 8:08Speaker 2: do whatever. But what happens is if you don't know
- 8:10Speaker 2: you're going off and you're going off, You're going to
- 8:13Speaker 2: be off the road. You see what I'm saying, And
- 8:15Speaker 2: that's dangerous. So I'm always just it's the discipline is
- 8:19Speaker 2: more important than anything. I agree.
- 8:21Speaker 1: I'm gonna try it. I'm gonna try, I'm gonna ty,
- 8:25Speaker 1: I'm gonna try it. I'm gonna report back.
- 8:27Speaker 2: You know, every everybody has their own flow though.
- 8:30Speaker 1: You know, I'm gonna try their own.
- 8:32Speaker 2: I'm gonna try. Is gonna come in here day one.
- 8:34Speaker 2: I'm about to pass out.
- 8:35Speaker 1: I'm about to pass out of all.
- 8:38Speaker 2: I have that coffee, man. And again, you know that's
- 8:41Speaker 2: another thing with teaming with Starbucks and Sereblin on this thing.
- 8:45Speaker 2: It's just because you know, it's part of my routine,
- 8:49Speaker 2: you know what I mean, And it's part of the
- 8:50Speaker 2: system that I've created. But these these things create successes. Man.
- 8:54Speaker 1: Yeah, I reach that all the time.
- 8:56Speaker 2: You're exactly right. I love it. I love it.
- 8:58Speaker 1: Well, congratulations on that, brother, and listen everyone be sure
