How Would One Leg Up With Alex Garrett Sound On Radio? Excerpts From InviteHealth Radio and AM 970 the Answer · OneLegUpAlex Media

• 0:00
  Right now. I often talk about bringing one link up with Alex Garrett to
• 0:03
  radio. How would that sound? Well, maybe these excerpts from my interactions
• 0:08
  with doctor Amanda Williams on both By the Way, AM five seventy The Mission
• 0:14
  WMCA and AM nine to seventy The Answer through Invite Health radio can give us
• 0:21
  a glimpse. We talk about the health, and we talk about our product
• 0:25
  formulations that invite health. And I always like to talk about new studies that
• 0:31
  are out there, but this one I wanted to mention to you, Alex,
• 0:34
  because I was like, oh, because for those of you who perhaps
• 0:38
  once again have not heard this show before. And Alex and I have been
• 0:41
  working together for many, many years, and we both have a fond love
• 0:48
  of music and sports, amongst other things too, but those are our kind
• 0:52
  of our big things. So a study came out saying the Joy of Sports,
• 0:57
  how watching sports can boost well being. I had to stop for a
• 1:00
  moment and laugh, because we oftentimes talk about you know, when you go
• 1:03
  to a sporting event, you can get very stressed out. How we want
• 1:07
  to stop by Invite Health and take our lthaning before the big games so that
• 1:11
  we stay nice and calm, but it is true. They said that we
• 1:17
  can recognize that viewing sports and going out into the community and you know,
• 1:23
  sitting in Yankee Stadium for example, the amount of community that that can bring.
• 1:29
  And I personally, you know, can you know speak to that if
• 1:32
  I've been in the past to you know, Red Wings games or you know,
• 1:36
  to Michigan football games and there is really that that sense of community when
• 1:41
  your team is whether you're winning or losing. I mean, look the last
• 1:45
  few seconds of that game against the Canadians, I felt like all of Detroit
• 1:48
  and whoever follows them were screaming with the overtime, with the tie going.
• 1:52
  You know, I know, and I'm so happy for the Rangers because you
• 1:55
  guys are really like just great and I hope that you guys make it all
• 1:59
  the way to the end and when. But yeah, it was devastating.
• 2:01
  And we're a young team and we do have some veteran players on the wings.
• 2:06
  But you know, this week I had my highs and my lows because
• 2:08
  we were in that must win situation on Monday night and we won, and
• 2:14
  you know, we scored with like a minute left to tie it up and
• 2:15
  go to overtime. Then we won, so I was like, okay,
• 2:17
  great, we get to go into Montreal and we've got a shot at it.
• 2:22
  And so then, you know, once again, it came down to
• 2:23
  the end and I'm sitting here basically pulling my hair out, going, oh
• 2:27
  my gosh, the season's over. And we scored with seven seconds left in
• 2:31
  the game, and we tied it up and once again go to overtime.
• 2:34
  But during that between when the third period ended and when the overtime started,
• 2:40
  the guys found out that the Capitals won, and because the Capitals won,
• 2:45
  the Wings are officially out. So it kind of went from that state of
• 2:50
  you know, high elation to just complete deflation. But you know what,
• 2:53
  there's I always say, there's always next year. So I know, if
• 2:58
  you're in that locker room, encourage them to watch that in between periods.
• 3:02
  I feel like I wouldn't even want to watch it. I just want to
• 3:05
  go out and win on overtime, you know. Yeah, And you could
• 3:07
  tell because I went to a shootout and you could just see the you know,
• 3:09
  just the deflation. Only won, which was great, but you know,
• 3:14
  it's just one of those things where there are there's highs and lows and
• 3:16
  it's not just for the athletes, it's for the fans too. But this
• 3:21
  is what they were looking at. They were looking at the impact of sports
• 3:24
  and being a fan on your well being. And I think that it's an
• 3:30
  interesting way to understand that interaction since I do talk a lot about mindfulness on
• 3:36
  this show, and this is why I always emphasize there's always next year.
• 3:42
  You know, I'm a Michigan fan our basketball. You know, season this
• 3:46
  year was just horrible, so I'm hopeful for next year, but there's no
• 3:51
  guarantee, but I'm still going to be a fan nonetheless. And so this
• 3:55
  research was published in the Sports Management Review Journal, and it was really quite
• 4:00
  fascinating just to look at the impact of being a fan and your well being.
• 4:08
  And at the end of it, they said, you know, even
• 4:11
  though you do have these kind of these highs and lows, they were looking
• 4:14
  at it more as you stress, And remember I've talked about this, there's
• 4:17
  a difference between you stress and distress. So there's bad stress. And if
• 4:24
  anyone wants more details on the difference between stress and burnout, for example,
• 4:28
  you can check out my podcast wherever you listen to podcasts, or you can
• 4:31
  go to invite health dot com and you can search for that particular podcast.
• 4:34
  But there is a distinct difference. But there's also a difference between good stress
• 4:40
  that you know, the body is equipped to handle and deal with and it
• 4:44
  is actually quite healthy for us versus bad stress. And so in this study,
• 4:49
  this is kind of what they were determining, was like, well,
• 4:51
  there's definitely a lot more you stress where you do get these highs and lows.
• 4:57
  But usually most fans, you know, can ext when their team loses,
• 5:01
  and you know, you may be kind of sad in that moment,
• 5:03
  but you get up and you move on. And that's how I felt after
• 5:06
  that, you know what happened with the Red Wings. But now I can
• 5:11
  now I can root for the Rangers, and I can hope that the Rangers
• 5:14
  you don't have success getting into the playoffs. I know, well, you
• 5:15
  know, they are now the President's Trophy winner for the Atlantic Conference. And
• 5:20
  of course, you know, people say that might be a curse because obviously
• 5:25
  the Bruins were there last year and got knocked out in the first round by
• 5:29
  a team I believe close to you, if I'm not mistaken, right,
• 5:31
  So that was a big deal in in Florida too that they knocked out the
• 5:36
  Bruins last year. But no, the Rangers coming with a different mindset.
• 5:40
  I think that having Jonathan Quick on their bench as a champion goalie, a
• 5:44
  Stanley Cup winning goalie, is going to help Shastirkin. I think they've got
• 5:46
  a lot going on for them right now. And you know about Matt Remby,
• 5:49
  right, I mean, we cannot not talk about Matt Rempy's impact this
• 5:53
  postseason. He's gonna have, Yeah, you know, it really is amazing,
• 5:57
  and you know, and just to think of once again the connection like
• 5:59
  you were talking about with you know, radio being a small world. Same
• 6:04
  thing with sports, like you know, with Wings, fans were just over
• 6:09
  the moon that we had Patrick Kane and I know that he did a small
• 6:13
  little stunt with you guys. They're at the Rangers at the tail end of
• 6:16
  last year. So it's it's a small world when it comes to to sports.
• 6:20
  And that's the year everybody was like, oh because with Kine and Tera
• 6:24
  Sankoh, that's the year for the Rangers. They get knocked out by the
• 6:27
  Devil's. But you know what, this year just looks stronger. And I
• 6:30
  think having Peter Love a let behind the bench as the coach is a big
• 6:33
  changer. And Michael Peca, I mean that's an Islander legend right there,
• 6:38
  coaching on the Rangers. So you talk about sports in a small world,
• 6:41
  how about that? It really is. I know it was even the other
• 6:45
  night when I was watching the Wings game, I was like, wow,
• 6:46
  you know this is Keith Primo's son is the goalie at Montreal. Like what
• 6:50
  a small world. Because I grew up as like a you know, avid
• 6:54
  Wings fan watching Keith Primo play for the Wings. So it's just it is,
• 6:58
  it's a it's such a little CV. Eiserman I still believe as your
• 7:00
  president, right he is he is, and you know, we are all
• 7:05
  happy in Detroit that he is back and he is building that team back up.
• 7:10
  And you know, like I said, the Detroit fans very faithful and
• 7:15
  very loyal, and we wait and we wait, Well, can I tell
• 7:17
  the story? So doctor Manna sometimes comes to the studio with us, and
• 7:20
  I love when she's up here in New York and she shut up the door
• 7:25
  and here I am in my Detroit Tigers, Detroit Lions and Detroit Red Wings
• 7:29
  gear. I'm ready for you. Doctory let's do radio. Remember that.
• 7:32
  I love it. I have all the pictures still you do. You always
• 7:36
  go go all out when I'm up there in studio and make me feel at
• 7:43
  home with all of your Detroit sports stuff, and so I do have an
• 7:47
  appreciation for that. So thank you so much. You know, we both
• 7:51
  love sports, and we're both we're loyal to our teams, but we're also
• 7:57
  appreciative of just the athletes in general. And I'm super excited because we've We're
• 8:01
  gonna have so much to talk about this summer too, because we have the
• 8:03
  Olympics coming up, and I am one hundred in the Olympics. Less than
• 8:07
  one hundred days now that we're honoring one hundred days this past week, so
• 8:11
  less than one hundred days away, and I know you probably follow that.
• 8:13
  And of course the basketball team was in town this week. I think will
• 8:18
  be unveiled for Team USA. So there's a lot of excitement and some old
• 8:20
  bows is coming back, how about that. I know, I know.
• 8:24
  I mean, it's just it's so exciting. And I love watching swimming and
• 8:26
  dieting. I mean, there's I watched track and field. I love everything
• 8:31
  about the Olympics. It doesn't matter if it's Summer Olympics or Winter Olympics.
• 8:33
  We've talked about this multiple times on our radio shows, and it's just I
• 8:39
  just think, you know, wow, just the amount of hard work and
• 8:43
  dedication and effort that all of these athletes and their teams. You know,
• 8:46
  they're coaches behind the scenes, their families for supporting them. And you know,
• 8:50
  if you need help when it comes to your energy and muscle recovery,
• 8:54
  Invite Health has got you covered. I'm gonna tell you about some formulations that
• 8:58
  are wonderful for those who are very athletic in those maybe not so much on
• 9:03
  the flip side of this break, So stick around you're listening to Invite Health
• 9:05
