  Speaker 2: Now, all right.
• 2:29
  Speaker 1: Says I hope you feel better. Well, thank you. I
• 2:32
  Speaker 1: think both of us feel a lot better, and I
• 2:33
  Speaker 1: know I can get my head a whole lot further
• 2:37
  Speaker 1: than I was. I'm just about I'm probably a week away,
• 2:40
  Speaker 1: maybe two from being back to my normal self. Then
• 2:44
  Speaker 1: now I've getting a range of motion back, and then
• 2:46
  Speaker 1: I'll start strengthening my neck again quite a bit after that,
• 2:52
  Speaker 1: once I get the emotion back. I'm been doing a
• 2:54
  Speaker 1: lot of stretching, I move it, I get it, get
• 2:57
  Speaker 1: it going, and get a lot of physical therapy on it,
• 3:00
  Speaker 1: and get massages and stuff like that, red lights and
• 3:04
  Speaker 1: oh yeah, a few adjustments and stuff like that as well.
• 3:07
  Speaker 2: And well also too, you were a little under the
• 3:09
  Speaker 2: weather last week too, Yeah, and I was a.
• 3:11
  Speaker 1: Little sick last week as well. So now I'm just
• 3:15
  Speaker 1: now I think it's just stalergies.
• 3:17
  Speaker 2: So well, it's funny. I think I might have caught
• 3:20
  Speaker 2: it through the through the internet too, because I've been
• 3:22
  Speaker 2: having scratchy throats and uh dry coughs all day. So
• 3:27
  Speaker 2: it's like it's that time of season.
• 3:30
  Speaker 1: It's not that kind of virus there, not that kind
• 3:34
  Speaker 1: of virus.
• 3:34
  Speaker 2: They don't.
• 3:37
  Speaker 1: But you got it from somebody else, that's it. But no,
• 3:41
  Speaker 1: it's okay. Yeah, So the question was I hope you
• 3:45
  Speaker 1: feel better and thank you, we do or I do?
• 3:48
  Speaker 1: And I think Ben's feeling pretty good.
• 3:50
  Speaker 2: For the most Oh yeah, I'm feeling pretty good a lot,
• 3:54
  Speaker 2: you know, like finally got my medication under control, you know.
• 3:57
  Speaker 2: So I know that's a little bit of information thrown
• 3:59
  Speaker 2: out there, but my last time I saw my doctor
• 4:02
  Speaker 2: made some adjustments and I'm feeling a lot better. Just
• 4:04
  Speaker 2: on that front.
• 4:06
  Speaker 1: That is awesome. Okay, I'm not sure which type of
• 4:09
  Speaker 1: protein powder or bar to choose. Should I go for
• 4:12
  Speaker 1: wave protein, soy protein or plant based one? Well, soy
• 4:16
  Speaker 1: is a plant based protein, yes, So that's one thing.
• 4:20
  Speaker 1: But to be quite honest with you, the way the
• 4:23
  Speaker 1: way isolate's probably going to do the best as far
• 4:27
  Speaker 1: as that goes. Let's to hear. There are many brands,
• 4:30
  Speaker 1: flavors and sugar levels on the market. I don't know
• 4:33
  Speaker 1: how to pick the right one. Also, is it okay
• 4:36
  Speaker 1: to eat GMO foods? Try to stay away from GMO
• 4:40
  Speaker 1: foods as much as you possibly can.
• 4:42
  Speaker 2: Everything is GMO though, you know what I'm saying that
• 4:45
  Speaker 2: that's like, Yeah.
• 4:47
  Speaker 1: When you can find something that's not GMO that you
• 4:49
  Speaker 1: want to eat, definitely eat that first, exactly, buy it
• 4:53
  Speaker 1: and buy it regular and stuff like that. Get away
• 4:56
  Speaker 1: from the GMO as much as you possibly can. And
• 5:01
  Speaker 1: if you can find other options, do that. If you
• 5:03
  Speaker 1: can find a local farmer, you know, that type of stuff,
• 5:07
  Speaker 1: go there first, you know. Same with any type of
• 5:12
  Speaker 1: you know, beef or chicken or whatever. If you can
• 5:15
  Speaker 1: find somebody who does that locally, you know, go with
• 5:20
  Speaker 1: that first.
• 5:21
  Speaker 2: Yes, as fresh as possible.
• 5:23
  Speaker 1: Yeah, So local farms, local, just local everything, go there
• 5:28
  Speaker 1: before you go anywhere else.
• 5:30
  Speaker 2: Definitely, you know. And I want to make a little
• 5:33
  Speaker 2: recommendation on protein bars. While we were at the Olympia,
• 5:37
  Speaker 2: we were close to the Dave's Protein bar booth and
• 5:41
  Speaker 2: I got to say, it's the best protein bar I've had,
• 5:43
  Speaker 2: and it's low sugar, low calorie, high protein, and all
• 5:49
  Speaker 2: natural ingredients, so you're basically eating whole foods. And I
• 5:53
  Speaker 2: was pretty surprised. So I was like, all right, and
• 5:55
  Speaker 2: then I do have my sinful favorite one, and I'm
• 5:58
  Speaker 2: gonna ask you yours, Nick, But there's a protein bar
• 6:01
  Speaker 2: company called Barbell, and it's just eating a candy bar
• 6:06
  Speaker 2: that has twenty five grams of protein. You know what
• 6:08
  Speaker 2: I mean. It's literally just a candy bar with protein
• 6:11
  Speaker 2: in it. And you know, I don't get them all
• 6:13
  Speaker 2: the time, but every so often, when I want a
• 6:15
  Speaker 2: sweet treat and i'm you know, at the gas station,
• 6:17
  Speaker 2: because most gas stations carry them, I'll get that cookies
• 6:20
  Speaker 2: and cream Barbel protein bar because like I said, it's
• 6:24
  Speaker 2: like I'm eating It's like I'm eating an oreo candy bar. Mmm.
• 6:29
  Speaker 1: Okay, Yeah, I don't eat a lot of protein bars. Yeah,
• 6:34
  Speaker 1: I'll have the the protein powder. If anything, I'll do
• 6:38
  Speaker 1: the shake because it's just easier to drink down.
• 6:40
  Speaker 2: Well, Nick, you like to eat carbohydrate bars in the
• 6:43
  Speaker 2: form of rice crispies.
• 6:45
  Speaker 1: Well, yes, yeah, that's to get my glucose up as
• 6:50
  Speaker 1: I'm training exactly right before and then during I'm training,
• 6:54
  Speaker 1: and stuff like that. Yeah, which is good. But as
• 6:59
  Speaker 1: far as for goes, Alpha Lion makes a one called Superhuman.
• 7:05
  Speaker 1: It's a protein isolate and it is it's twenty five
• 7:08
  Speaker 1: grams per serving. So for a normal person, that's a
• 7:11
  Speaker 1: good anob And don't be afraid of sugar. Be afraid
• 7:15
  Speaker 1: of the artificial sweeteners, not the sugar unless it's like twenty.
• 7:20
  Speaker 2: Grams or something like that.
• 7:21
  Speaker 1: Yeah, if the sugar is not like super high and
• 7:26
  Speaker 1: it has no other sweeteners in it, go for that
• 7:29
  Speaker 1: before anything else. You know, sugar is easy for your
• 7:33
  Speaker 1: body process. It'll use it for quick burning energy stuff
• 7:37
  Speaker 1: like that. It's not the worst thing in the world.
• 7:39
  Speaker 1: The worst thing in the world is the fake ones.
• 7:42
  Speaker 2: Yeah, so there, And you can tell by a flavor,
• 7:45
  Speaker 2: by the way it mixes the and it is just
• 7:48
  Speaker 2: a quality, you know what I'm saying, because you know,
• 7:51
  Speaker 2: people a lot of times try to use protein powders
• 7:54
  Speaker 2: as a masking tool for not eating, which is you know,
• 7:58
  Speaker 2: the first thing you should be doing.
• 8:00
  Speaker 1: Yeah, you need to eat good food first, and then
• 8:03
  Speaker 1: me I'll go with the alphal Lion Superhuman way isolate
• 8:09
  Speaker 1: the protein.
• 8:10
  Speaker 2: What flavor are you drinking right now?
• 8:12
  Speaker 1: I'm drinking Hulk milk. You know, it's pretty tasty. So
• 8:20
  Speaker 1: it's got twenty five grams per scoop. Now, for normal people,
• 8:24
  Speaker 1: that's a pretty good amount. I do too, because I'm
• 8:27
  Speaker 1: not exactly normal.
• 8:31
  Speaker 2: Slightly slightly, you know, just a little bit above average.
• 8:35
  Speaker 1: Yeah, I'm trying to get over three hundred grams of
• 8:37
  Speaker 1: protein in the day of protein, so fifty grams is
• 8:43
  Speaker 1: good amount in one sitting. So oh yeah, that'll help
• 8:46
  Speaker 1: quite a bit. But again, I don't do a whole
• 8:50
  Speaker 1: lot of shakes, but I'll do them. And those are
• 8:52
  Speaker 1: the ones I'll do because I can only eat so much,
• 8:55
  Speaker 1: Like at work or something, I'll stop and might go
• 8:58
  Speaker 1: grab a shake real fast between, like when I take
• 9:02
  Speaker 1: my lunch break, I'll eat my lunch, but in between
• 9:04
  Speaker 1: I'll grab a protein cake or something like that too.
• 9:07
  Speaker 2: And that's the thing. It's an alternative too. It's a
• 9:10
  Speaker 2: meal because like even most people lose that concept of like,
• 9:13
  Speaker 2: oh I just need a drink. Protein protein shakes are
• 9:16
  Speaker 2: meant for a meal replacement in an emergency, correct, you know.
• 9:22
  Speaker 1: Or on a time like where you don't have time
• 9:24
  Speaker 1: to cook or eat or anything.
• 9:26
  Speaker 2: Else like that. Exactly exactly what it's for.
• 9:29
  Speaker 1: You know. So if you're at work and you only
• 9:30
  Speaker 1: get a half hour for lunch and you get two
• 9:32
  Speaker 1: small ten minute breaks, the ten minute breaks is where
• 9:35
  Speaker 1: you'd want to have a protein shake, you know, and
• 9:39
  Speaker 1: a little little tiny snack calories in your body. Doesn't
• 9:43
  Speaker 1: it's not starving for the calories. You get good quality
• 9:46
  Speaker 1: you know food in Yeah, then you have your lunch
• 9:51
  Speaker 1: and then do another one, you know, two or three
• 9:53
  Speaker 1: hours later, and then you're off and then you can
• 9:56
  Speaker 1: eat a good meal again after that and then go
• 9:59
  Speaker 1: about whatever it is you gotta do and then eat
• 10:01
  Speaker 1: again exactly Now.
• 10:04
  Speaker 2: I'm just sorry, Nick, I just want to go into
• 10:06
  Speaker 2: if you're going to doll this doll it up. I'm
• 10:09
  Speaker 2: talking about you're gonna make it a sweet treat because
• 10:12
  Speaker 2: you know, sometimes we use protein as like that where
• 10:14
  Speaker 2: we'll just add a little extra to it because it
• 10:17
  Speaker 2: comes down to a calorie thing at a certain point. Uh,
• 10:21
  Speaker 2: most people, it's gonna be ice water or ice milk
• 10:25
  Speaker 2: or you know what I'm saying, add le something. Give
• 10:29
  Speaker 2: me an extra ingredient in here that you would add
• 10:31
  Speaker 2: to this protein.
• 10:33
  Speaker 1: An extra greenent that I would add to besides the
• 10:35
  Speaker 1: milk and the ice. Yes, a pop tart. I'll throw
• 10:41
  Speaker 1: a pop tart in there every once in a while,
• 10:43
  Speaker 1: that type of stuff. And I've thrown in eggs as well,
• 10:49
  Speaker 1: So take your pick.
• 10:51
  Speaker 2: There you go.
• 10:53
  Speaker 1: The the pop title thrown in before I got a turn, Yeah,
• 10:59
  Speaker 1: I won't have time to eat it good meal, and
• 11:00
  Speaker 1: I need to get a protein shake in and stuff
• 11:02
  Speaker 1: like that. I'll throw the pop tartan before I need
• 11:04
  Speaker 1: a train because I'm trying to get the calorie count
• 11:06
  Speaker 1: to go through the roof. Yeah, trying to get more
• 11:08
  Speaker 1: carbs and sugars in as well. That way I have
• 11:12
  Speaker 1: more available gu close to train with.
• 11:14
  Speaker 2: There you go. I usually threw a pebe two. I'll
• 11:17
  Speaker 2: throw in a serving size scoop, which is two tablespoons,
• 11:21
  Speaker 2: because I'm a big peanut butter guy. I just like
• 11:24
  Speaker 2: the flavor and so typically you know, anything heavy peanut
• 11:27
  Speaker 2: butter is in for me.
• 11:29
  Speaker 1: It's calories too, yes, so yeah, that's another good option.
• 11:34
  Speaker 1: But like I said, I like the glucose, so it's
• 11:39
  Speaker 1: good stuff. Oh yeah, very good. But yeah, all right,
• 11:43
  Speaker 1: well covers those questions, that's it. Yeah, But I mean
• 11:48
  Speaker 1: there's so many different things you can do. And always eat,
• 11:50
  Speaker 1: always eat food.
• 11:52
  Speaker 2: Whole foods, please, whole foods.
• 11:54
  Speaker 1: Yeah, one item foods, yes, yes, and other to it
• 12:00
  Speaker 1: that are one item foods exactly.
• 12:02
  Speaker 2: And just for a quick understanding, Nick, tell them what like,
• 12:07
  Speaker 2: the best way to find a whole item food in
• 12:09
  Speaker 2: a store.
• 12:11
  Speaker 1: The best way to find them a single ite of
• 12:14
  Speaker 1: food in the store is around the perimeter of the store.
• 12:17
  Speaker 1: You know, the produce section, the dairy section, the meat section.
• 12:24
  Speaker 1: You know, it's all around the perimeter of the store. Yeah,
• 12:28
  Speaker 1: that's where you find it. The rice you won't find
• 12:30
  Speaker 1: in the middle of the on the side of the store.
• 12:32
  Speaker 1: That'll be in the middle of the store. But everything
• 12:35
  Speaker 1: else should be.
• 12:36
  Speaker 2: Around the perimeter of the store exactly.
• 12:38
  Speaker 1: Yeah, that's where're gonna find those things, the good things,
• 12:42
  Speaker 1: around the perimeter. So the eggs will be in the dairy,
• 12:46
  Speaker 1: you know, milk will be in the dairy. Yeah, and
• 12:52
  Speaker 1: then you got your produce department and stuff like that,
• 12:54
  Speaker 1: and then the exactly. So that's kind of where you're
• 12:57
  Speaker 1: gonna find the best things to eat for us, around
• 12:59
  Speaker 1: the perimeter of the store. That's design it that way.
• 13:03
  Speaker 1: So okay, next, that's it.
• 13:06
  Speaker 2: Well, let's get into the next question here.
• 13:08
  Speaker 1: Okay, oh, next question. I get distracted a lot and
• 13:13
  Speaker 1: have trouble focusing. What helps you boost focus and what
• 13:18
  Speaker 1: should I stay away from? You stay away from energy
• 13:21
  Speaker 1: drinks because that'll get you going really good and then boom,
• 13:26
  Speaker 1: you crash if you're gonna go with a stimulant. It's
• 13:31
  Speaker 1: real simple. Just a basic black cup of coffee will
• 13:35
  Speaker 1: do a lot. If you need to get a little
• 13:38
  Speaker 1: bit more of a boost, use a whole sweetener like honey,
• 13:42
  Speaker 1: you know, or even a little bit of sugar. Stay
• 13:44
  Speaker 1: away from the fake stuff, don't put that in there.
• 13:47
  Speaker 1: And then yeah, a little bit of honey, a little sugar,
• 13:50
  Speaker 1: those things will do well with your with a cup
• 13:53
  Speaker 1: of coffee too. The other thing is is get good sleep.
• 13:57
  Speaker 1: Good sleep will help more with your focus than probably anything.
• 14:01
  Speaker 1: So get some good sleep, get you know, seven to
• 14:05
  Speaker 1: eight and a half hours of sleep. If you can
• 14:07
  Speaker 1: do that, you're gonna focus really good. Run off the
• 14:10
  Speaker 1: rip anyway, and then meditation will help you focus, you know,
• 14:15
  Speaker 1: getting your head straight, stuff like that that'll really help
• 14:20
  Speaker 1: you focus on things that you need to get done
• 14:22
  Speaker 1: that day. Now. Another thing that will help you focus
• 14:27
  Speaker 1: is alpha brain. Joe Rogan made this stuff famous. I've
• 14:31
  Speaker 1: tried it. It's a nootropic, and nootropics work very very
• 14:34
  Speaker 1: well to help you focus very well. So if you
• 14:39
  Speaker 1: need to take an outside source of something to help
• 14:43
  Speaker 1: fine tune your acuteness, alpha brain and the ingredients in
• 14:47
  Speaker 1: alpha brain. So if you can't find it, look it
• 14:49
  Speaker 1: up and find the ingredients in it, the nootropics in it.
• 14:53
  Speaker 1: Those will help you focus a lot as well, and
• 14:56
  Speaker 1: it's I would do that more than I would do
• 14:58
  Speaker 1: the stimulants, to be quite honest with you. Or find
• 15:01
  Speaker 1: some type of there's some nootropic pre workouts that are
• 15:06
  Speaker 1: out there right now. Brian Shaw sells one called Greatness Extreme.
• 15:11
  Speaker 1: It's a nootropic and a and a caffeinated pre workout,
• 15:17
  Speaker 1: but it's not real high in caffeine. I think it
• 15:20
  Speaker 1: might be one hundred and no more than two hundred grams,
• 15:24
  Speaker 1: but it has a lot of nootropics in it. So
• 15:26
  Speaker 1: the focus you get from that, you feel very centered,
• 15:31
  Speaker 1: very focused on everything that you're doing when you take
• 15:37
  Speaker 1: the stuff, and it lasts a good six to eight hours,
• 15:40
  Speaker 1: So do not take Greatness Extreme any time you need
• 15:45
  Speaker 1: to go to sleep. It's not going to be happening
• 15:49
  Speaker 1: anytime soon. When you do that and the focus stays
• 15:53
  Speaker 1: the whole entire time, it does not go a couple
• 15:56
  Speaker 1: hours and then drop off. It's four to six hours.
• 15:59
  Speaker 1: Very It was one of the things. I had to
• 16:02
  Speaker 1: drive back from Brian's house once a few years ago
• 16:07
  Speaker 1: during the middle of winter, and I was trying to
• 16:10
  Speaker 1: beat a storm out of there. I was gonna be
• 16:12
  Speaker 1: stuck there in another two days, and I left a
• 16:16
  Speaker 1: little bit on the later side that I wanted to,
• 16:19
  Speaker 1: and so I used the extreme greatness extreme to drive
• 16:26
  Speaker 1: through the night, all the way to the next to
• 16:30
  Speaker 1: about eight o'clock nine o'clock in the morning, through through
• 16:35
  Speaker 1: the storm and stuff like that, going through Colorado into
• 16:37
  Speaker 1: Utah and back down in New Vegas. That was that
• 16:42
  Speaker 1: was pretty It kept me very weake and very focused.
• 16:45
  Speaker 1: I never once dozed off. So it was very good stuff.
• 16:48
  Speaker 1: And then you want to be very focused in the snowstorm.
• 16:52
  Speaker 1: Oh yes, so I made it. I made it through
• 16:55
  Speaker 1: the veil before the bad stuff hit, but it was
• 16:58
  Speaker 1: still coming down a little bit. The storm got there
• 17:01
  Speaker 1: about an hour to two hours before it should have,
• 17:05
  Speaker 1: and I had to drive through some snow that we
• 17:08
  Speaker 1: weren't really I wasn't really expecting and it helped me
• 17:12
  Speaker 1: get through.
• 17:12
  Speaker 2: That with no problem. Oh yeah, And like, like I said,
• 17:15
  Speaker 2: those are outside sources. But let's do a little bit
• 17:19
  Speaker 2: more on the not just the mindset, but like everyday practicality,
• 17:24
  Speaker 2: because like, one of the things that a lot of
• 17:26
  Speaker 2: us is procrastination, and that is one of those things
• 17:29
  Speaker 2: that will take away your focus. You know what I'm saying. Yeah,
• 17:33
  Speaker 2: you know a lot what I always find myself doing
• 17:36
  Speaker 2: is I distract myself with other stuff that I don't
• 17:41
  Speaker 2: technically want to do, but I would rather do it
• 17:43
  Speaker 2: than what I'm doing right now. Need to get done,
• 17:46
  Speaker 2: you know what I'm saying.
• 17:47
  Speaker 1: Right, And everybody goes through things like that.
• 17:49
  Speaker 2: We all do.
• 17:50
  Speaker 1: We all do. There's things I can't stand to do.
• 17:52
  Speaker 1: I can't stand to write in voices. It's just one
• 17:55
  Speaker 1: of those things I just do not like to do,
• 17:58
  Speaker 1: and I will procrastinate it up to a point, but
• 18:01
  Speaker 1: at some point you just go, Okay, just do it.
• 18:05
  Speaker 1: At some point you have to put the foot down
• 18:09
  Speaker 1: on yourself and be like, Okay, I wrote a list
• 18:14
  Speaker 1: of things together that I need to get done, and
• 18:16
  Speaker 1: these are the times it needs to get done by,
• 18:19
  Speaker 1: and I'm going to get it all done. And the
• 18:21
  Speaker 1: things that I've been procrastinating on or putting off on
• 18:24
  Speaker 1: and not focusing on are in this list, so they
• 18:27
  Speaker 1: are going to be done by this time set of time.
• 18:30
  Speaker 1: I put a thing where it has to be done by,
• 18:35
  Speaker 1: come hell or high water, no matter what, it's getting done,
• 18:38
  Speaker 1: and that'll that's you'll get it done exactly. So it's
• 18:43
  Speaker 1: just write it down, do your list, go through your
• 18:46
  Speaker 1: list the things that get done. If it's in the
• 18:48
  Speaker 1: list of things that have to get done that day,
• 18:50
  Speaker 1: then it gets done period. And there's no more putting
• 18:54
  Speaker 1: it off, there's no more not focusing on, and it's
• 18:56
  Speaker 1: no more procrastination. It's that's when it gets it's done.
• 19:01
  Speaker 1: The only time it's not going to get done is
• 19:03
  Speaker 1: if something like unforeseen happens, car accidents, stuff like that.
• 19:09
  Speaker 1: That'll be the only only legitimate, possible reason why I
• 19:14
  Speaker 1: won't get done. Other night, it's getting done period at.
• 19:16
  Speaker 2: The end, exactly. One of the things I always try
• 19:18
  Speaker 2: to do is recognize that I'm doing it, you know
• 19:21
  Speaker 2: what I'm saying, because a lot of times, a lot
• 19:22
  Speaker 2: of us, you know, we subconsciously don't recognize it because
• 19:26
  Speaker 2: we're just trying to have those blinders on. So, like
• 19:28
  Speaker 2: one of the things I try to do everybody, Yeah,
• 19:32
  Speaker 2: this is what I'm doing. Back on track. You know
• 19:35
  Speaker 2: what I'm saying.
• 19:36
  Speaker 1: It's it's you know what you're doing. Yeah, you know
• 19:40
  Speaker 1: what you're doing. You're procrastinating it. So instead of procrastinating it,
• 19:44
  Speaker 1: put it on a list. If it's something you know
• 19:47
  Speaker 1: that you're going to procrastinate on, and you know what
• 19:50
  Speaker 1: you're going to procrastinate on, we all do write it
• 19:54
  Speaker 1: down the list of things that have to get done,
• 19:56
  Speaker 1: and set a time on it where it needs to
• 19:58
  Speaker 1: get done by, and then get it done by that time.
• 20:02
  Speaker 1: It's just it's just do it. There is no more procrastination.
• 20:07
  Speaker 1: It's just do it. Like tonight, I'm going to sit
• 20:10
  Speaker 1: after this and try to figure out how to do
• 20:14
  Speaker 1: the invoices and get them set off because it needs
• 20:18
  Speaker 1: to get done.
• 20:19
  Speaker 2: That's it.
• 20:19
  Speaker 1: So yeah, it's it's it's one of those things. It's
• 20:24
  Speaker 1: like it comes time to do it, so do it.
• 20:27
  Speaker 1: It's just that simple. Just schedule the time, put it
• 20:30
  Speaker 1: on the list. Before I can I'm going to eat.
• 20:33
  Speaker 1: I'm gonna eat a little bit of food. I'm going
• 20:36
  Speaker 1: to get on my list. I'm going to finish the
• 20:38
  Speaker 1: things I gotta do on that list before I can
• 20:40
  Speaker 1: do anything else tonight.
• 20:42
  Speaker 2: That's it.
• 20:44
  Speaker 1: And and I will get it done.
• 20:49
  Speaker 2: Oh yeah, well, you know, like thanks for the fans
• 20:52
  Speaker 2: tuning in the question and you know, like say that,
• 20:56
  Speaker 2: you know, join the patroon. You can actually ask you
• 20:58
  Speaker 2: a question and we'll answer that question. So you know,
• 21:00
  Speaker 2: that's that one of those perks right there. So you know, so, uh,
• 21:05
  Speaker 2: but with all that going on and everything happening right now,
• 21:10
  Speaker 2: what's actually happening in uh for the rogue is uh?
• 21:13
  Speaker 2: I believe this weekend right you know, that's it. You
• 21:17
  Speaker 2: know what I'm saying. There's a lot of people, there's
• 21:19
  Speaker 2: a lot of people coming in, a lot of people
• 21:21
  Speaker 2: heading out there right now. With the events and with
• 21:24
  Speaker 2: everything going on, you know, uh, you have any predictions.
• 21:30
  Speaker 1: I think everybody better look out for the thor Lucas happening.
• 21:35
  Speaker 1: It's pretty simple that it's a high pole. So I
• 21:42
  Speaker 1: think Lucas got a pretty good shot at that.
• 21:44
  Speaker 2: Oh yes, he's got a good shot, you know what
• 21:48
  Speaker 2: I'm saying. And uh, you know, with a lot of
• 21:50
  Speaker 2: people not being able to attend, you know what I'm saying,
• 21:52
  Speaker 2: like Evan being hurt and being out, you know what
• 21:55
  Speaker 2: I'm saying. There there there's a lot of people opening
• 21:57
  Speaker 2: up to what can actually happen at this here, So
• 22:01
  Speaker 2: I'm definitely looking forward. You know what I'm saying.
• 22:05
  Speaker 1: I think Lucas hat on a couple of the events
• 22:07
  Speaker 1: where he might have to move a little bit. I
• 22:10
  Speaker 1: think he'll do well enough on those too place high
• 22:15
  Speaker 1: enough to mitigate any damage. You know, a couple of
• 22:20
  Speaker 1: other guys that can move a little faster and you
• 22:22
  Speaker 1: don't have to worry about Evan now. So you know,
• 22:25
  Speaker 1: I think he can win the overhead part of it.
• 22:30
  Speaker 1: I think he can win the deadlift part of it.
• 22:32
  Speaker 1: So it's gonna be h It's gonna be a fun
• 22:36
  Speaker 1: show to watch.
• 22:37
  Speaker 2: I think it's and I believe it's free on YouTube
• 22:40
  Speaker 2: for anybody to watch. Correct, So you know what I'm saying.
• 22:43
  Speaker 2: So for those who want to watch, you know what
• 22:45
  Speaker 2: I'm saying, understand that you can check it out. You
• 22:47
  Speaker 2: know what I'm saying. One of the people I'm looking
• 22:49
  Speaker 2: forward to seeing is actually, uh, you know, this is
• 22:52
  Speaker 2: going to be the first not the first, but a
• 22:56
  Speaker 2: big show competition that Ryan O'Neil is the the current
• 23:00
  Speaker 2: world strongest Man is attending. So I'm definitely looking forward
• 23:04
  Speaker 2: to seeing how he performs.
• 23:05
  Speaker 1: You know what I'm saying, Ah, listen, litmus test for him,
• 23:09
  Speaker 1: It'll be exactly for him. I think he's going to
• 23:14
  Speaker 1: learn a lot at the show. Yeah, you know, and
• 23:17
  Speaker 1: he's going to learn a lot. This is not going
• 23:19
  Speaker 1: to be an easy show.
• 23:21
  Speaker 2: That's it. That is it. You know what I'm saying.
• 23:23
  Speaker 2: You got because uh, the as of right now, it's Stultman, Mitchell, Neil, Johnson, Evans,
• 23:31
  Speaker 2: you know, Thomas Evans, Andre Andrade, Ays, Hooper and Hatton.
• 23:38
  Speaker 2: You know what I'm saying because uh, because I was
• 23:40
  Speaker 2: thinking about it right now, I think, uh, Thor actually
• 23:44
  Speaker 2: hurt himself.
• 23:45
  Speaker 1: Yep.
• 23:47
  Speaker 2: So and I'm just going I'm just going over the
• 23:50
  Speaker 2: most updated list here as we speak. And like I
• 23:54
  Speaker 2: said it, right now, we got we got a stack
• 23:56
  Speaker 2: card because every one of these guys here, Yeah, I
• 24:01
  Speaker 2: potential podiums, half podium and or champions.
• 24:04
  Speaker 1: Yeah. I think unless something goes really crazy, you can
• 24:07
  Speaker 1: see Lucas, Hooper Andrade and uh Lucas Hatton and Hooper
• 24:16
  Speaker 1: and uh Trey.
• 24:19
  Speaker 2: I agree. I agree, uh.
• 24:23
  Speaker 1: Thomas, those that could be your top five right there, yeah,
• 24:26
  Speaker 1: right off top Evans. Yeah, because Evans is good at
• 24:30
  Speaker 1: all these events too.
• 24:32
  Speaker 2: And like I said, and he just podium third place
• 24:34
  Speaker 2: for the Strongest Man on Earth, so.
• 24:37
  Speaker 1: Overhead so mm hmm. So it's it's gonna be an
• 24:42
  Speaker 1: interesting show all the way around.
• 24:43
  Speaker 2: Oh yeah, so you know what I'm saying. We'll keep
• 24:45
  Speaker 2: an eye on that, watch it over the weekend, and
• 24:47
  Speaker 2: then you know, as of next week, we'll we will
• 24:49
  Speaker 2: report back on it for those who wont our opinion
• 24:52
  Speaker 2: on that.
• 24:53
  Speaker 1: Yeah, it should be pretty good. I mean it's it's
• 25:00
  Speaker 1: it's gonna be tough to beat a couple of these
• 25:03
  Speaker 1: guys in here. And if Hooper comes in, I'm on
• 25:07
  Speaker 1: all cylinders. Good luck.
• 25:10
  Speaker 2: That's it.
• 25:11
  Speaker 1: He's getting healthy, he's getting strong. Things are coming around,
• 25:16
  Speaker 1: So you have to watch out for what that guy
• 25:20
  Speaker 1: does when when he's on.
• 25:22
  Speaker 2: Just yeah, when he's locked in, he's locked in. You
• 25:26
  Speaker 2: know what I'm saying. That's that's one of those things,
• 25:28
  Speaker 2: you know. And also to uh, you know, like he
• 25:31
  Speaker 2: he beat himself up pretty good for his first his
• 25:34
  Speaker 2: first his rookie years as strong man going as hard
• 25:37
  Speaker 2: as he went three years. Yeah, he's yea when every
• 25:40
  Speaker 2: every trophy that could be won.
• 25:43
  Speaker 1: Pretty close, pretty done close. So yeah, he's done things
• 25:49
  Speaker 1: that other people have not done. But it's the longevity
• 25:52
  Speaker 1: part of it, that's yeah, that's that's really that's the
• 25:57
  Speaker 1: tough part.
• 25:58
  Speaker 2: Yeah.
• 25:59
  Speaker 1: So but I mean it's all the tough part. But yeah,
• 26:02
  Speaker 1: I think Hooper can do pretty good. But I also
• 26:06
  Speaker 1: think this is going to be a very very very
• 26:08
  Speaker 1: good contest for Lucas Hatton. I think it'll be good
• 26:11
  Speaker 1: for Austin. I think it'll be good for Trey, and
• 26:14
  Speaker 1: I think it'd be really good for Thomas Evans as well.
• 26:18
  Speaker 1: A couple of the moving events will hurt Trey, will
• 26:20
  Speaker 1: hurt Evans, and depending on how quick Lucas can be
• 26:28
  Speaker 1: with those things. If if Lucas can come in right
• 26:34
  Speaker 1: behind Hooper on the moving stuff, he's he's got a
• 26:39
  Speaker 1: good shot because I think he'll out press Hooper by
• 26:42
  Speaker 1: a little bit. Yeah, and he might at the high deadlift,
• 26:48
  Speaker 1: he might. He might get him on that. So it's
• 26:51
  Speaker 1: gonna be a fun thing to want. I can't wait
• 26:53
  Speaker 1: to watch it because.
• 26:54
  Speaker 2: Yeah, it's going to be amazing and Hatten's coming off
• 26:58
  Speaker 2: is America's Strongest Man victory. So he's got a little
• 27:00
  Speaker 2: momentum running into this.
• 27:02
  Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, he really does. So it's gonna it's gonna
• 27:06
  Speaker 1: be fun to watch. It'll be exciting.
• 27:08
  Speaker 2: That's it. There's a reason why there's a reason why.
• 27:10
  Speaker 1: They do the contest because you never know what's gonna happen.
• 27:14
  Speaker 1: Exactly at the end of the day. You can sit
• 27:17
  Speaker 1: here and go, oh, I think it's gonna be this.
• 27:18
  Speaker 1: I think it's gonna be that, and then it all goes.
• 27:21
  Speaker 1: It takes a really right, hard right hand turn. So
• 27:25
  Speaker 1: but on paper kind of right now, kids finding all cylinders.
• 27:30
  Speaker 1: I know, he got up there early, so the time
• 27:33
  Speaker 1: change and all that other stuff and getting used to
• 27:37
  Speaker 1: being in Scotland and stuff like that. You know. Oh yeah,
• 27:41
  Speaker 1: it's gonna be fun to watch.
• 27:42
  Speaker 2: It's definitely gonna be fun to watch. Yeah, And so
• 27:45
  Speaker 2: let's pivot a little bit and uh, actually, next week

• 30:44
  Speaker 2: San Antonio.
• 30:46

  Speaker 1: It's November. It's November, yeah, the nineteenth, twenty third.
• 30:58
  Speaker 2: No, No, before the OSG.

• 31:03
  Speaker 2: Oh, in November, I thought I was. I thought for
• 31:04
  Speaker 2: some reason, I thought it was in December. No, it's
• 31:07
  Speaker 2: before Thanksgiving, Okay, And that was like that too.
• 31:12
  Speaker 1: There's a lot of stuff you're doing right now.

  Speaker 1: I was looking at all this stuff earlier.

  Speaker 2: going out to these events and seeing these events and
• 31:43
  Speaker 2: meeting the fans, talking to the fans. You know what
• 31:46

  Speaker 2: at least from my perspective on the outside watching and you.
• 31:52
  Speaker 1: Know, go and help you know, the guys and stuff
• 31:55

• 32:41
  Speaker 1: then just got busy doing stuff and I never got

• 32:50
  Speaker 2: the movies just don't catch you, you know what I'm saying.
• 32:55
  Speaker 2: It happens so much because like I don't know how

• 33:17
  Speaker 2: Lands was, which was a good one I liked after Burn.
• 33:21
  Speaker 2: I don't think that's it. It might be after Burn
• 33:24
  Speaker 2: because it says twenty twenty five.
• 33:27
  Speaker 1: Hmm, let's see here. I don't know.

  Speaker 2: what has caught my attention. Coming out this week is
• 34:36
  Speaker 2: the new Running Man. Yes, I do want to see that,
• 34:40
  Speaker 2: so that is definitely on my on my watch list.

  Speaker 2: have any time to go see it this weekend, but.
• 34:48
  Speaker 1: I am. Yeah, I don't know. This weekend's gonna be
• 34:51
  Speaker 1: a little crazy for me too.
• 34:54
  Speaker 2: Yeah, exactly. Well, you know, this weekend coming up is Halloween,
• 34:57
  Speaker 2: so it's gonna be all over the place, you know,
• 34:59
  Speaker 2: and we're a big Halloween family at our house. Our
• 35:02
  Speaker 2: house is completely decorated and for those for that are
• 35:07
  Speaker 2: you know, like Halloween and stuff like that. I'll actually
• 35:09
  Speaker 2: put up a short video in the Patreon of my house.
• 35:12
  Speaker 2: Because we decorate, we go all out at our house.
• 35:15
  Speaker 2: It's all litting up led lights. You know what I'm saying.
• 35:19
  Speaker 2: My wife's you know, I don't do none of the work.
• 35:21
  Speaker 2: I hold none, I hold none of the like we
• 35:25
  Speaker 2: did it. It's like, no, she did it. I'm just
• 35:29
  Speaker 2: pass me this, hand me this, hold the ladder. Yeah,
• 35:33
  Speaker 2: you know.
• 35:34
  Speaker 1: Yeah, I'll be going out and I'll probably hand out
• 35:37
  Speaker 1: candy and probably go spend some time with Jennifer and
• 35:42
  Speaker 1: oh yeah, go trick or treat with the kids and stuff.
• 35:44
  Speaker 2: That's it now with handing out candy or handing out
• 35:48
  Speaker 2: fun size or full size.
• 35:52
  Speaker 1: Probably fun size because candy's needs to be a moderation.
• 35:57
  Speaker 2: So hey, well, for anybody that knows me or where
• 36:03
  Speaker 2: I'm at, it's full sized bars all the way. My
• 36:05
  Speaker 2: wife is, like I said, full Halloween and everything. She
• 36:09
  Speaker 2: has to actually keep the candy bars locked away because
• 36:13
  Speaker 2: you know, I have self control, but keeping it in
• 36:16
  Speaker 2: control is one of those things that I have because
• 36:19
  Speaker 2: I'm like, I like the sweets, I like the chocolates.
• 36:22
  Speaker 2: That's my jam. But uh, you know what I'm saying.
• 36:24
  Speaker 2: We usually give out up pretty much quite a bit
• 36:26
  Speaker 2: of bars for Halloween around here.
• 36:29
  Speaker 1: And then it's neat to see what the kids come
• 36:30
  Speaker 1: up oh yeah, and stuff like that. It's kind of
• 36:34
  Speaker 1: a neat thing. Oh yeah, far as you know, things
• 36:40
  Speaker 1: like that and see what the kids come up with,
• 36:41
  Speaker 1: and going out and being in the community and talking
• 36:44
  Speaker 1: to people and stuff like that, and.
• 36:46
  Speaker 2: Just exactly exactly. You know, our kids are are are
• 36:50
  Speaker 2: all adult age and they enjoy their lives. There's no
• 36:53
  Speaker 2: more trick or treating or taking the kids trick or
• 36:55
  Speaker 2: treating for ourselves. It's uh, you know, we stay home,
• 36:59
  Speaker 2: we pass South bars, we have a good time. You
• 37:02
  Speaker 2: know what I'm saying. We're actually hoping we get a
• 37:04
  Speaker 2: lot more people this year than we have in the
• 37:06
  Speaker 2: last couple of years, because it's been getting more and
• 37:08
  Speaker 2: more and more, you know, from the years coming in
• 37:10
  Speaker 2: because you know, COVID really shut Halloween down and now
• 37:14
  Speaker 2: it's it's starting to slightly change, at least in our area.
• 37:17
  Speaker 2: So you know, we're happy that's happening, because you know,
• 37:20
  Speaker 2: we love when the kids get to come. We hand
• 37:21
  Speaker 2: them the candies, especially when they come to our house
• 37:23
  Speaker 2: with the see the full bars.
• 37:24
  Speaker 1: You're just like, oh my god.
• 37:26
  Speaker 2: And then those last couple of kids they get they
• 37:28
  Speaker 2: get handfuls and I know the parents are looking at
• 37:31
  Speaker 2: us cross eyed. But it's got to get out of
• 37:33
  Speaker 2: our house, right.
• 37:37
  Speaker 1: Yeah, no, for sure, So it'll be good. And then uh,
• 37:43
  Speaker 1: you know, and then going to work, and then I'm
• 37:45
  Speaker 1: going to try to get to a strong man test
• 37:49
  Speaker 1: contest that's here in Vegas. I don't know what time
• 37:53
  Speaker 1: gonna be able to get to work that day, but
• 37:54
  Speaker 1: I'm down there and go see that. And then the
• 37:59
  Speaker 1: second uh, when I get off work on the second.
• 38:03
  Speaker 1: Then I'm going to go, uh my birthday party will
• 38:06

• 38:18
  Speaker 1: we'll train and then we'll barbecue and stuff like that,
• 38:21

  Speaker 1: close friends and close family.
• 38:44
  Speaker 2: Those are good birthdays right there.
• 38:47
  Speaker 1: They don't need to be crazy. I don't need to
• 38:49
  Speaker 1: clubs and.
• 38:52
  Speaker 2: Stuff. We're adults.
• 38:55
  Speaker 1: Well even then, it's just you know, it's just it's
• 39:00
  Speaker 1: just a jay to enjoy the people.
• 39:02
  Speaker 2: That are important to you, exactly.
• 39:04
  Speaker 1: You know, as far as I'm concerned, it's an extra
• 39:06
  Speaker 1: day I get to spend with family and people that
• 39:09
  Speaker 1: are important to me. So that'll be nice. Looking forward
• 39:13

  Speaker 1: like a month. Yeah, that'll be great, so I'll get
• 39:24
  Speaker 1: to see her and you know, it's it's gonna be
• 39:28
  Speaker 1: pretty special. I really miss her.
• 39:29
  Speaker 2: It was hard having her to college. Oh yeah, yeah, yeah,
• 39:33
  Speaker 2: it's not. It's not an easy thing, especially when you
• 39:36
  Speaker 2: gotta you gotta give that time up. It's like, oh my.
• 39:38
  Speaker 1: God, yep, yep. So it's it'll be nice. I'm really
• 39:43
  Speaker 1: looking forward to the next couple of months coming up,
• 39:46
  Speaker 1: and then like I said, uh, I think my my
• 39:51
  Speaker 1: next coming along pretty darn good. Now I can start
• 39:55
  Speaker 1: now that I got a lot of the mobility back,
• 39:57
  Speaker 1: I can start working on strengthening it and then get
• 40:00
  Speaker 1: back to doing my full on regular training shortly after that.
• 40:04
  Speaker 1: So exactly, you know, it's gonna be it's gonna be neat.
• 40:09
  Speaker 1: It's gonna be a good year coming up twenty twenty six.
• 40:11
  Speaker 1: So oh yeah, losto be my fortieth fortieth year. And
• 40:16
  Speaker 1: you're from high school?
• 40:18
  Speaker 2: Man?
• 40:19
  Speaker 1: Yeah, man, yeah, Because I mean, other than my hip,
• 40:26
  Speaker 1: other than my hip bugging me a little bit, I
• 40:30
  Speaker 1: don't feel old.
• 40:34
  Speaker 2: Well, here's the thing is, you've you've broken the mold
• 40:39
  Speaker 2: on what old is. You know what I'm saying, because
• 40:41
  Speaker 2: like you know, I remember when I was growing up,
• 40:45
  Speaker 2: you were in your forties, late forties, early fifties, you
• 40:50
  Speaker 2: looked old and you was old or most yes, yeah,
• 40:55
  Speaker 2: most people, you know what I'm saying. And now, like
• 40:57
  Speaker 2: I said, hey, being able to have the strength you have,
• 41:01
  Speaker 2: being able to you know, look the way you look
• 41:04
  Speaker 2: and live a comfortable life, it's you know, it just
• 41:08
  Speaker 2: shows you that that real training and dedication to yourself.
• 41:13
  Speaker 2: You know what I'm saying, because that's what a lot
• 41:15
  Speaker 2: of times people always ask, what's the the trick. You
• 41:19
  Speaker 2: know what I'm saying, what's the what's the gimmick, what's
• 41:21
  Speaker 2: the magic pill? Exactly?
• 41:26
  Speaker 1: It's it's the everyday little things that you do to
• 41:30
  Speaker 1: take care of yourself every day. It's the way you
• 41:35
  Speaker 1: eat your meals. You know, one bad meal of a week, Okay,
• 41:40
  Speaker 1: Other than that, it's everything's good food. It's program food.
• 41:45
  Speaker 1: It's it's good stuff. You got. A normal, consistent training
• 41:49
  Speaker 1: program doesn't have to be stuff where you're breaking excuse me,
• 41:54
  Speaker 1: breaking world records.
• 41:55
  Speaker 2: And competing eating your body up.
• 41:58
  Speaker 1: It's not that though. It's it doesn't have to be.
• 42:02
  Speaker 1: You don't have to go out there with the goal
• 42:04
  Speaker 1: of being world champion. You just have to go out
• 42:06
  Speaker 1: there with the goal of being the best to you
• 42:09
  Speaker 1: you can be and the healthiest to you you can be.
• 42:12
  Speaker 1: And that's the mindset you need to go out with. Yes,
• 42:16
  Speaker 1: if you have the talent and you want to go
• 42:19
  Speaker 1: and become a world champion, and all those things will
• 42:22
  Speaker 1: make you better at it anyway. So it's it's the basic, everyday, boring,
• 42:28
  Speaker 1: mundane things that you do with the same enthusiasm the
• 42:32
  Speaker 1: first time you did them. That's going to in the
• 42:35
  Speaker 1: end pay off. So it's it's the eating, it's the training,
• 42:38
  Speaker 1: it's all the little things. It's the little things that
• 42:42
  Speaker 1: up to the mass.
• 42:43
  Speaker 2: It's being deliberate in your life, you know. And it's
• 42:46
  Speaker 2: like like you, you know, if something is important to you,
• 42:49
  Speaker 2: you'll do it. You want to live longer, you want
• 42:52
  Speaker 2: to you want to live stronger, you want to live
• 42:55
  Speaker 2: the best you you know, it requires you to put
• 42:58
  Speaker 2: in something.
• 43:00
  Speaker 1: Yeah, it really anything that you're going to do in
• 43:04
  Speaker 1: life that you want to do well, you're gonna have
• 43:09
  Speaker 1: to put the work in for it. There's no there's
• 43:11
  Speaker 1: no hack around it. I Mean, some people come up
• 43:14
  Speaker 1: on have more talent and come up on things quicker
• 43:17
  Speaker 1: and easier, but even the talent will run into its
• 43:19
  Speaker 1: limits and eventually has to start putting the work in.
• 43:23
  Speaker 1: And that's the difference between the world class level guys
• 43:27
  Speaker 1: and the guys that will never make it there. It's
• 43:29
  Speaker 1: it's it's that everyday work. It's the it's the Yeah,
• 43:35
  Speaker 1: I'm not gonna go out and party, you know, I'm
• 43:38
  Speaker 1: I'm gonna stay in and get my sleep and train
• 43:43
  Speaker 1: and eat and do the things because I think going
• 43:46
  Speaker 1: to competitions and competing is fun. Travling the world and
• 43:50
  Speaker 1: seeing those things is fun. That's that's what I thought
• 43:53
  Speaker 1: was fun. So it's about those little things that make
• 43:57
  Speaker 1: the biggest difference over time and add up over time.
• 44:01
  Speaker 1: But there's no quick way. It took you five, ten,
• 44:06
  Speaker 1: fifteen years to get it out of shape, it's going
• 44:09
  Speaker 1: to take you a while to get back into shape.
• 44:11
  Speaker 1: You can do it fast, but there's always a price
• 44:13
  Speaker 1: to pay. Yep, if you do it slowly and methodically.
• 44:17
  Speaker 1: Everything in life is slow, methodical, and planned out. And
• 44:20
  Speaker 1: if you keep constantly getting better, you will keep you
• 44:25
  Speaker 1: will stay at the top. You will get to the top,
• 44:27
  Speaker 1: and you will stay at the top till you decide
• 44:29
  Speaker 1: you want to do something else. And when you decide
• 44:32
  Speaker 1: you want to do something else, you apply to things
• 44:34
  Speaker 1: that you learn to get you to that spot to
• 44:37
  Speaker 1: the next thing that you're going to do, and you'll
• 44:39
  Speaker 1: be successful at that too, you know. And it's not
• 44:43
  Speaker 1: about beating everybody. It's just about being the best you
• 44:49
  Speaker 1: you can be. And if you worry about that, you'll
• 44:52
  Speaker 1: eventually end up, you know, doing well no matter what
• 44:56
  Speaker 1: you do. It's just that it so go out there
• 45:00
  Speaker 1: and be the best to you you can be. At
• 45:02
  Speaker 1: the end of the day, that's all you can do.
• 45:04
  Speaker 2: That's it, and that's the secret. And I don't think
• 45:07
  Speaker 2: we could put any more of a pin in that
• 45:09
  Speaker 2: if we could.
• 45:12
  Speaker 1: And as all so you know, like share, subscribe, please
• 45:16
  Speaker 1: share this, please share this. It allows us to keep
• 45:20
  Speaker 1: going and stuff like that. And as always, train hard,

  Speaker 1: train smart, and be the best you you can be,
• 45:26
  Speaker 1: because at the end of the day, that's the person
• 45:29
  Speaker 1: you're trying to be, is the person in the mirror,
• 45:31
  Speaker 1: and as long as you keep being a little bit
• 45:34
