Speaker 1: Hello, my friends from all across the globe, and welcome
0:17
Speaker 1: to your Enriched Self podcast. I am your host, MII
0:21
Speaker 1: Lee Noir. I am an emotional wellness and empowerment coach,
0:27
Speaker 1: and what that means is I am your mindset advocate.
0:31
Speaker 1: I realize, I recognize that you live in a world
0:35
Speaker 1: that is busy and buzzing, and there's so much on
0:39
Speaker 1: your plate, around your plate, in your life, around your life.
0:43
Speaker 1: When do you have time to think? When do you
0:47
Speaker 1: spend time just managing your thoughts? Right? We have budgets
0:51
Speaker 1: for money, and we have budgets for time. We make
0:54
Speaker 1: our calendars, we manage our calendars, but when are we
0:58
Speaker 1: managing our thoughts? Right? Just like anything else, if left unmanaged,
1:04
Speaker 1: it's going to get derailed, it's going to go rogue,
1:08
Speaker 1: it's going to come off the beaten path and potentially
1:12
Speaker 1: move you away from what you're destined to do or
1:15
Speaker 1: destined to be. And thoughts are the same way. Right,
1:19
Speaker 1: we have to manage your thoughts. Your thoughts inspire your words.
1:23
Speaker 1: Those are the words that you then speak over your life.
1:27
Speaker 1: Those words then become the actions and the activity that
1:32
Speaker 1: you participate in your life. And if you're listening to
1:35
Speaker 1: this podcast. I know that when you show up in
1:37
Speaker 1: this world, you wanna show up as the best version
1:40
Speaker 1: of yourself. But it all starts with your thoughts, and
1:43
Speaker 1: so that's what we do here on this podcast. If
1:46
Speaker 1: you are new to this podcast, I wanna welcome you
1:49
Speaker 1: and thank you for being here. And if you are
1:53
Speaker 1: a repeat listener, listen. We've been doing this for over
1:56
Speaker 1: two hundred episodes and you've been there for each and
2:00
Speaker 1: every one of them. And I thank you not just
2:03
Speaker 1: for being here, but sharing, liking and commenting on the podcast,
2:09
Speaker 1: sharing your comments. I appreciate that and I know that
2:14
Speaker 1: you I could not have done this without you, So
2:17
Speaker 1: thank you, thank you, Thank you from the bottom of
2:20
Speaker 1: my heart. Now, before we get into this week's episode,
2:24
Speaker 1: if you know you know, one of the things I
2:26
Speaker 1: do on this podcast is make a deposit into the
2:31
Speaker 1: bank of you, and I do that by way of affirmations.
2:38
Speaker 1: Affirmations are a great way to start your day and
2:44
Speaker 1: to command your warning. And this week's affirmation is I
2:53
Speaker 1: am grateful for my ability to learn, grow, and overcome obstacles.
3:03
Speaker 1: I am grateful for my ability to learn, grow and
3:09
Speaker 1: overcome obstacles. I am grateful for my ability to learn, grow,
3:19
Speaker 1: and overcome obstacles. Now let's get ready for this week's
3:26
Speaker 1: episode of the Your Enriched Self podcast. If you've been
3:33
Speaker 1: listening to this podcast for at least the last year
3:36
Speaker 1: and a half, I am sure that you have heard
3:39
Speaker 1: on a multitude of occasions about a gym that I
3:43
Speaker 1: am a member of, proudly a member of, very active
3:47
Speaker 1: at this gym. When I joined a Jim, I wanted
3:51
Speaker 1: a challenge, and boy did I get that. I've been
3:55
Speaker 1: participating in the six week boot camps for the last
3:59
Speaker 1: year and a half, started last March of twenty twenty four,
4:03
Speaker 1: and I am very much locked into this gym. The atmosphere,
4:08
Speaker 1: to people, the trainers, everything is exactly what I needed
4:13
Speaker 1: to be and I'm sure it would be a place
4:15
Speaker 1: that you would welcome with open arms as well. One
4:18
Speaker 1: of the things I enjoy about this gym is all
4:22
Speaker 1: of the activities that are there, and it seems like
4:25
Speaker 1: every single month as we go through these boot camp challenges,
4:31
Speaker 1: there is a new challenge that emerges and the trainer
4:35
Speaker 1: slash owner coach all of the things that this gym
4:40
Speaker 1: created a new challenge. This particular boot camp around muscle growth.
4:47
Speaker 1: And the reason why she created the challenge is because
4:50
Speaker 1: as with most things that we put forward, it's things
4:54
Speaker 1: that people are having issues with. They are having challenges
5:01
Speaker 1: with building muscle. And I'll be honest, I am people.
5:04
Speaker 1: I am one of the people that would lose weight
5:08
Speaker 1: or find other areas of success, but not be able
5:12
Speaker 1: to sustain muscle building along the journey. And so we
5:18
Speaker 1: know how critical that is for as we're aging. You
5:22
Speaker 1: know the importance of having muscle and building lean muscle,
5:27
Speaker 1: what that will do for us as we as we
5:29
Speaker 1: continue to age, and so it's a critical piece of
5:34
Speaker 1: the journey to not just you know, work out, but
5:38
Speaker 1: build muscle as we go along. So she created this challenge,
5:41
Speaker 1: and you know, there's a big prize at the end
5:43
Speaker 1: for the person in this particular boot camp to see
5:48
Speaker 1: what the th you know, muscle gains are. I'm saying
5:53
Speaker 1: this because I wanna talk about the practicality around building.
6:00
Speaker 1: I know that there is a component, of course in
6:05
Speaker 1: the gym right of the importance of muscle and what
6:08
Speaker 1: it does for us, as I mentioned as we age,
6:12
Speaker 1: but the importance and the process of building muscle, and
6:16
Speaker 1: I think that same process and all of the same
6:18
Speaker 1: concepts can be applied to life. As a matter of fact,
6:21
Speaker 1: they are very applicable to our lives. And so I
6:26
Speaker 1: want to talk today about the formula around strength and
6:32
Speaker 1: strength training, and there are three components to it. I
6:37
Speaker 1: believe that align really well with what we're doing in
6:42
Speaker 1: the gym and what we are also doing in life,
6:46
Speaker 1: whether we know it or not. And I want to
6:49
Speaker 1: bring those and marry those together today so that you
6:52
Speaker 1: can have a really good idea of what that is.
6:56
Speaker 1: The thing about the process of whatever we're doing in life,
7:00
Speaker 1: whether it's at the gym, or our finances or building
7:04
Speaker 1: a business, whatever it is that you are working on
7:08
Speaker 1: right now, it always seems like we want to get
7:12
Speaker 1: from where we are to the destination. But we always
7:16
Speaker 1: are looking for and it's just human nature. I believe,
7:20
Speaker 1: looking for a quick hit or a low hanging fruit,
7:29
Speaker 1: or a fast track to get there. And I'm not
7:33
Speaker 1: saying that there aren't low hanging fruit or there aren't
7:37
Speaker 1: fast tracks to get to places, but I think we
7:40
Speaker 1: often default to do that. And therefore, when it's time
7:44
Speaker 1: to really do solid work and time to dig in
7:48
Speaker 1: and to stand firm into going through the process until
7:53
Speaker 1: it's done. It feels like we're in a foreign land,
7:55
Speaker 1: and I want to bring us back to ground zero
7:58
Speaker 1: of doing the work, of staying in the process, because
8:04
Speaker 1: in order to do something like build muscle, physical muscle,
8:08
Speaker 1: and then the muscles of life, right, the strength that
8:11
Speaker 1: you need in life, it's not gonna happen overnight. There's
8:14
Speaker 1: not a fast track to do a lot of these things.
8:18
Speaker 1: And again, you know, you hear about people who juice
8:20
Speaker 1: and do all these different things, you know, inject to
8:24
Speaker 1: get muscles, but we're hearing a lot of people kind
8:29
Speaker 1: of reverse that. I mean, recently, I heard about the
8:33
Speaker 1: Rock had some heart issues and I don't know the
8:37
Speaker 1: whole story, but you know, little snippets of social media,
8:40
Speaker 1: and I'm not sure what of it is all fact,
8:44
Speaker 1: but I have seen a photo of him and he
8:47
Speaker 1: has reversed a lot of the muscle that he has,
8:50
Speaker 1: and a lot of people said that he did that
8:51
Speaker 1: because of his health. Now, again I don't know the
8:53
Speaker 1: whole story, but again he could have gone down to
8:59
Speaker 1: fast track. I don't know how how he got all
9:01
Speaker 1: his muscles and the exterior that we saw. I know
9:04
Speaker 1: he was a big part of WrestleMania and that whole world,
9:08
Speaker 1: and who knows what those folks do there. But the
9:11
Speaker 1: whole point is there's not a fast track to do it,
9:15
Speaker 1: and for people that are doing it fast, there's gonna
9:17
Speaker 1: come a period in time where it has to be reversed, right,
9:21
Speaker 1: because our bodies were not meant to do those things
9:25
Speaker 1: the way we like to do them. And again, we
9:28
Speaker 1: like those quick hits, the fast tracks, get to it fast.
9:33
Speaker 1: We love that in society. We are in a microwave society,
9:38
Speaker 1: so there's no surprise to that. But again, today I
9:41
Speaker 1: want to take us back to kind of a ground
9:43
Speaker 1: zero and to really build a formula of strength because
9:48
Speaker 1: we need it. We need it in our physical bodies,
9:51
Speaker 1: but we need it in our physical lives as well.
9:54
Speaker 1: And so that's the conversation I want to have today,
9:57
Speaker 1: and I'd like to bring it into key points just
10:01
Speaker 1: to give you some tangible things to take away. So
10:04
Speaker 1: we're gonna we're gonna use the same kind of formula
10:07
Speaker 1: to help you with this formula of strength building. And
10:10
Speaker 1: so again what happens in the gym, and one of
10:15
Speaker 1: the first things that my trainer said to us is
10:18
Speaker 1: that what you're gonna notice with the workouts is that
10:22
Speaker 1: you're gonna be using or I'm gonna encourage you recommend
10:26
Speaker 1: that you use heavier weights. Right. You know, oftentimes in
10:31
Speaker 1: our workouts we're asked to, you know, bring in weights
10:35
Speaker 1: or use weights that are provided at the gym, and
10:38
Speaker 1: most of us, I've been guilty of this. We go
10:42
Speaker 1: for the weights that we're comfortable with. We go for
10:45
Speaker 1: the weights that we can manage in order to build muscle,
10:50
Speaker 1: which is again what we are doing in this current
10:54
Speaker 1: boot camp season is a muscle challenge. There has to
10:58
Speaker 1: be resistance to build the strength, and that's where the
11:04
Speaker 1: recommendation is to get heavier weight, right, to challenge the
11:10
Speaker 1: weight limits that we typically weren't challenging. We were kind
11:13
Speaker 1: of just doing this, you know, the status quo, doing
11:16
Speaker 1: what we were comfortable with. But we've learned, and we've
11:19
Speaker 1: talked about this on many many occasions on this podcast
11:23
Speaker 1: and other places in life, that you can't grow in
11:25
Speaker 1: a comfort zone. You can't grow without resistance. Essentially, there
11:29
Speaker 1: has to be resistance to get growth. If there is
11:32
Speaker 1: no resistance, there's not going to be any growth. So
11:35
Speaker 1: that's the kind of in the gym environment and what
11:40
Speaker 1: that looks like in life. How resistance is gonna show
11:44
Speaker 1: up is a little bit different. Right, You're not gonna
11:46
Speaker 1: have weights in life, but you're gonna have the weight
11:49
Speaker 1: of life, meaning you're gonna have challenges, you're gonna have obstacles,
11:53
Speaker 1: you are gonna have setbacks. Those are essentially the resistance
11:57
Speaker 1: points in your life. And when those happen, again, they're
12:02
Speaker 1: not a comfortable space to be in, but they are
12:07
Speaker 1: a space that you can grow from and you can
12:10
Speaker 1: build those strength muscles, so to speak, in your life
12:16
Speaker 1: because you're in a space when that happens that demands
12:20
Speaker 1: more from you. Just like those weights at the gym,
12:23
Speaker 1: It demands more from you to go maybe ten, maybe
12:26
Speaker 1: even twenty from where you typically would lift. You know,
12:32
Speaker 1: maybe twenty might be too much for some people, but
12:34
Speaker 1: again depending on the progression, right, So there's that whole
12:37
Speaker 1: process to a progressive weight increases, so eventually you can
12:43
Speaker 1: get to twenty. But again, the whole intent there is
12:46
Speaker 1: that you're pushing or your life will essentially push you
12:52
Speaker 1: against your comfort zone with that obstacle, with that setback,
12:59
Speaker 1: with that challenge, and it's up to you to face it,
13:05
Speaker 1: and it's going to demand a lot from you, and
13:08
Speaker 1: so that is where the resistance is going to come from.
13:12
Speaker 1: You know, recently, I've seen a lot of entrepreneurs people
13:16
Speaker 1: I've admired that I saw actually come through kind of
13:20
Speaker 1: the pandemic. I think I talked about, you know, the
13:22
Speaker 1: pandemic a couple weeks back and how you know, new
13:27
Speaker 1: norms were formed and new businesses were built from that.
13:30
Speaker 1: And I saw a lot of great businesses and entrepreneurs
13:34
Speaker 1: that I admire come through that season of entrepreneurship and
13:40
Speaker 1: really grew their businesses ten x. But what's happening now
13:44
Speaker 1: is I'm seeing a lot of those people in some situations,
13:49
Speaker 1: finding themselves in failures in business and having to push
13:57
Speaker 1: through those challenges is today right? The good news is
14:03
Speaker 1: a lot of them push through those challenges during COVID,
14:06
Speaker 1: So I know there's a lot of economic turmoil and
14:09
Speaker 1: a lot of things happening today, But to see them
14:12
Speaker 1: do it in livestream and to take the audience along
14:16
Speaker 1: with them, that's a perfect example of building the resistance
14:22
Speaker 1: through those challenges of life, those setbacks that are coming forward.
14:27
Speaker 1: And I think we can all relate to a challenge
14:31
Speaker 1: or a setback in our own lives. That has helped
14:34
Speaker 1: us to propel forward, even though we didn't want to
14:37
Speaker 1: be in that position, but it has helped us. The
14:43
Speaker 1: other point I want to bring up is around recovery
14:46
Speaker 1: and when I started the challenge, and this is something
14:51
Speaker 1: I am. I do a lot, especially when I'm challenging myself.
14:55
Speaker 1: I'm kind of that person that goes hard, like I'll
14:59
Speaker 1: go right into this thing. So one of the things
15:01
Speaker 1: I said I would do is I would work out
15:03
Speaker 1: at the gym and then do some extra workouts every
15:07
Speaker 1: day with strength training, so that means lift every day.
15:13
Speaker 1: But I was talking to some people and they they
15:15
Speaker 1: they put me down. I didn't talk to my trainer
15:17
Speaker 1: cause she probably would have told me the same thing,
15:19
Speaker 1: but they said, you need recovery time. You're not going
15:23
Speaker 1: to build muscle if you don't have recovery time. And
15:28
Speaker 1: it was something I knew, but again my mindset, sometimes
15:32
Speaker 1: I go in and I go hard. But here's the
15:36
Speaker 1: thing about growing muscles, right, they don't grow during the workout.
15:43
Speaker 1: They grow when you are in recovery. They grow when
15:46
Speaker 1: you're in rest, when you are having to write nutrition
15:50
Speaker 1: and the right sleep. And that's something that I have
15:54
Speaker 1: been challenged with all throughout this camp, right is yes,
16:00
Speaker 1: I haven't been lifting heavier. I'm starting to do that now.
16:03
Speaker 1: I have to couple that with an intentionality around nutrition,
16:09
Speaker 1: around sleep, and also around getting the rest that I
16:13
Speaker 1: need because that's where muscles will grow. Right. Remember what's
16:20
Speaker 1: happening when you are training your muscles in the gym
16:25
Speaker 1: is you are literally ripping those fibers as you increase
16:30
Speaker 1: the weights and the reps and all those things. But
16:34
Speaker 1: you need a period of time for them to grow
16:36
Speaker 1: again or regrow, and that's where the muscle is actually
16:42
Speaker 1: going to grow, right, Otherwise it's going to be a
16:45
Speaker 1: burnout is going to put you into a place of injury.
16:49
Speaker 1: So let's talk about life. So we know what happens
16:52
Speaker 1: in the gym. We need that recovery time for the
16:56
Speaker 1: growth to happen. What does that look like for your life? Well,
17:02
Speaker 1: a lot of you don't understand the value of boundaries.
17:07
Speaker 1: So you spend time creating these wonderful boundaries. You educate
17:13
Speaker 1: people on your boundaries, but then you don't execute or
17:18
Speaker 1: keep those boundaries in place. You don't maintain those boundaries,
17:22
Speaker 1: so you lose the opportunity for rest, You lose the
17:26
Speaker 1: opportunity for reflection, You lose your time in prayer and
17:30
Speaker 1: journaling and all the things that you need to do
17:32
Speaker 1: to recharge, just like those muscles need to be recharged
17:36
Speaker 1: for growth, for your growth, These are some of the
17:39
Speaker 1: things that you need to do that you have put
17:42
Speaker 1: value into. But because you're not using your boundaries as
17:51
Speaker 1: that space of recovery so that you can have your
17:54
Speaker 1: quiet moment, your holy moment, your sacred time, it just
18:00
Speaker 1: breaks you down and there's less of you for even yourself,
18:06
Speaker 1: much less being able to pour into the cup of others.
18:09
Speaker 1: So this reminds me and I did a podcast on
18:13
Speaker 1: this a while back when Simon Biles had left the
18:16
Speaker 1: Olympics back in twenty twenty one. I thought that was
18:20
Speaker 1: a very admirable thing for her to do, and she
18:24
Speaker 1: would later on go on to talk about what was
18:28
Speaker 1: happening to her, like physically, she was dealing with some
18:30
Speaker 1: challenges and it also impacted her mentally as well. What
18:36
Speaker 1: she did was she prioritized that recovery period. She prioritized
18:45
Speaker 1: resting versus pushing through because she knew that that was
18:52
Speaker 1: going to weaken her and that was actually gonna put
18:54
Speaker 1: her in jeopardy, like physically in jeopardy because of what
18:59
Speaker 1: she was experiencing at the time. And I just love
19:03
Speaker 1: that example because I think a lot of times we
19:05
Speaker 1: look at people like a Simone Biles and some of
19:07
Speaker 1: these athletes that are regarded as the goat and people
19:11
Speaker 1: that we admire, and we think they're pushing through some
19:15
Speaker 1: of the hardest times in their life. But when we
19:19
Speaker 1: see them sit back and reflect and take that time
19:23
Speaker 1: to recover, we recognize that they need that time. And
19:29
Speaker 1: if they need that time, I need that time. And
19:32
Speaker 1: what happened to Simone in that season of allowing herself
19:36
Speaker 1: to rest and recover, she also allowed for other teammates
19:39
Speaker 1: to shine, which was another great part of the whole story.
19:43
Speaker 1: But when she comes back in the Olympics, the Summer
19:46
Speaker 1: Olympics last year, she shined, She blossomed, She was absolutely
19:55
Speaker 1: amazing in these past Olympics. And it was because she
20:00
Speaker 1: took that time out to recharge. She came back doing
20:05
Speaker 1: some of her greatest and most you know, memorable works
20:10
Speaker 1: of art, you know in her sport, and that is
20:15
Speaker 1: what this is all about. It's important to have that
20:19
Speaker 1: recovery time, it is important to not allow yourself to
20:25
Speaker 1: push through it, but prove that the resting is what's
20:32
Speaker 1: going to sustain you. And we saw that with simone.
20:37
Speaker 1: The last piece of this again going back to the
20:42
Speaker 1: formula of strength, and so we already talked about the resistance,
20:46
Speaker 1: you know, adding that additional weight, right, We talked about
20:50
Speaker 1: the importance of recovery, right for growth to happen, so
20:54
Speaker 1: we can build that strength, build those muscles. The other
20:58
Speaker 1: thing that has to happen for any of this to
21:02
Speaker 1: be possible is it has to be repeated. That's what
21:07
Speaker 1: creates the transformation, is the repetition. So in the gym, yeah,
21:14
Speaker 1: I can, and this is what I was doing before.
21:17
Speaker 1: And this is why the coach, the trainer, the owner
21:21
Speaker 1: of the gym decided to do this muscle challenge so
21:24
Speaker 1: that we would have repetitious exercises to help grow those muscles.
21:31
Speaker 1: What we were doing was we were working with heavy weights.
21:35
Speaker 1: We were working with weights, but it wasn't consistent. And
21:39
Speaker 1: those consistent reps over time are necessary, right, right, Those
21:45
Speaker 1: small repeated steps offer the efforts around compounds. Right, So
21:52
Speaker 1: over time, you are going to build simply because you're
21:57
Speaker 1: creating a repetition, and that's where transformation comes in. So
22:01
Speaker 1: that's what happens in the gym. Right now, We're doing
22:04
Speaker 1: more exercises and we are repeating those exercises not just
22:10
Speaker 1: one time a week or twice a week, we're doing
22:13
Speaker 1: it multiple times a week. So that consistent repetition is
22:16
Speaker 1: helping in life. What does that mean? What does that
22:20
Speaker 1: look like our daily habits? What are the things that
22:23
Speaker 1: you are doing today consistently, and maybe perhaps what are
22:28
Speaker 1: the things you are not doing consistently, Because if you
22:32
Speaker 1: want to change your life again, it goes back to
22:35
Speaker 1: what we talked about at the top of the podcast.
22:37
Speaker 1: You're not going to get from zero to a thousand
22:42
Speaker 1: by skipping steps. You've got to take those steps to
22:46
Speaker 1: get to that thousand step. And yes it may seem
22:49
Speaker 1: like a big task, but if you make a step
22:53
Speaker 1: each day, over and over again, eventually you are going
22:59
Speaker 1: to get to that thousand step. But if you start
23:03
Speaker 1: taking steps and then you stop, you still are that
23:07
Speaker 1: further away from that thousand step. So it's important to
23:10
Speaker 1: keep making those consistent steps, do the daily habits that
23:15
Speaker 1: are going to move you forward. And I know that
23:19
Speaker 1: feels so delayed and it doesn't feel like we're gonna
23:23
Speaker 1: get there, because again, we are in a microwave society
23:27
Speaker 1: where we want to get that bing that tells us
23:31
Speaker 1: it's done, that being that tells us open it up
23:33
Speaker 1: and eat. And what I'm saying to you is that
23:36
Speaker 1: there are going to be times where you have to
23:38
Speaker 1: plant the seed, allow it to grow down before it
23:44
Speaker 1: grows up and bursts through the ground, to present a flower,
23:48
Speaker 1: to present a plant, to present that little green leaf
23:53
Speaker 1: that let us know that that plant is growing. And
23:58
Speaker 1: that's how transformation is forged. It's going to take those
24:03
Speaker 1: daily steps. It's going to take the practice of building
24:09
Speaker 1: the discipline to do the things on a consistent basis,
24:14
Speaker 1: to be confident while doing these things, and to build momentum.
24:19
Speaker 1: That's necessary because there are some days that you're gonna
24:22
Speaker 1: be able to take one or two steps, and some
24:24
Speaker 1: days you can take ten steps simply because you're on
24:27
Speaker 1: a momentum. You're on a cycle. You're moving, and you're
24:31
Speaker 1: doing it consistently, and you're building your resistance. You're stronger,
24:37
Speaker 1: and so you're able to go further because you have
24:40
Speaker 1: more strength behind you. You know, you think about the
24:44
Speaker 1: mamba mentality that Kobe Bryant had. And I've talked about
24:48
Speaker 1: him on this podcast too. You know stories you've heard
24:51
Speaker 1: about Kobe Bryant after his team won a game in Miami, right,
24:57
Speaker 1: And so the rest of the team goes out to
25:01
Speaker 1: celebrate in Miami. And what does Kobe do. He spends
25:05
Speaker 1: hours after the game practicing his his shots. Yet they
25:13
Speaker 1: didn't lose, but his Mamba mentality says, I could have
25:18
Speaker 1: scored more points, There's more I could have done to
25:22
Speaker 1: lead my team. There's more opportunity left out here on
25:28
Speaker 1: this court that I want to maximize for the next game.
25:32
Speaker 1: That was his Mamba mentality. It wasn't celebrate the win.
25:36
Speaker 1: It was what else can I do to win better,
25:39
Speaker 1: to win bigger, to win again? Right, Because once you
25:42
Speaker 1: start winning, you want to keep that going. And so
25:45
Speaker 1: that's the momentum. That's the mentality, right, That's that practicing
25:50
Speaker 1: over and over again. And then he shows up and
25:54
Speaker 1: he's Kobe Bryant, and everybody's like, oh my god, he's
25:56
Speaker 1: the goat. Well, it didn't happen because he wanted to
26:00
Speaker 1: be the goat. It happened because he decided to be
26:03
Speaker 1: consistent with the reps. He decided to do the small
26:06
Speaker 1: things right when everybody's partying in Miami, he decided to
26:10
Speaker 1: do the repeated things right. He wasn't doing anything new
26:15
Speaker 1: on that court. He was repeating the work. He was
26:19
Speaker 1: repeating the shots right, something he does every game, probably
26:24
Speaker 1: every practice. But decided to do this alone to keep
26:28
Speaker 1: that momentum going, to build his confidence so when he
26:32
Speaker 1: showed up on the court the next game, he would
26:36
Speaker 1: have that confidence. He would live that Mamba mentality. And
26:39
Speaker 1: so that's what this season is all about. Yes, I
26:43
Speaker 1: am growing muscle, that is the goal, but I want
26:46
Speaker 1: this to be practically applied to everything you're doing in life.
26:51
Speaker 1: To grow your life, to create the transformation that you
26:55
Speaker 1: want to grow where you need grow, you need to
26:59
Speaker 1: be growing, and also to build a strength that you're
27:03
Speaker 1: gonna need so that you can manage those challenges when
27:07
Speaker 1: they come forward, because life is gonna bring challenges. Right
27:11
Speaker 1: in the gym, those challenges are probably gonna be ways,
27:13
Speaker 1: They're gonna be new exercises, they're gonna be things that
27:16
Speaker 1: stretch us in new ways. But we have to be willing.
27:20
Speaker 1: We have to be willing to manage that strength formula.
27:25
Speaker 1: So that we can become the best versions of ourselves,
27:29
Speaker 1: so that you can become the best version of yourself
27:31
Speaker 1: and you can become more of your enriched self. You know,
27:37
Speaker 1: just like muscles in life, it's gonna grow through the strength.
27:43
Speaker 1: It's gonna grow through the resistance, it's gonna grow through
27:45
Speaker 1: the recovery, and it's gonna grow through that transformation. So
27:50
Speaker 1: I want to help you in this season create a
27:56
Speaker 1: strength formula and build your strength, build your life muscles,
28:02
Speaker 1: because as you finish this year, you want to finish
28:05
