Speaker 1: Hi, welcome back to Bounce Forward with me, Tip Haul.
Speaker 1: I'd like to acknowledge the traditional custodians at the land
Speaker 1: on which I'm recording this podcast, the WERENDR people of
Speaker 1: the Koolin Nation.
Speaker 2: I pay my respects to elders past and present. Alice
Speaker 2: has a question.
Speaker 1: Hey, Tiff, I saw Taylor swifts workout routine recently and
Speaker 1: would love to know what you think of it, if
Speaker 1: it compares to any athletes or celebs that you have
Speaker 1: trained over the years.
Speaker 2: Oh, Alice, I love Taylor.
Speaker 1: Big Swifty over here, and I went to her concert
Speaker 1: and she is impressive. She was performing, running up and
Speaker 1: down that massive stage for three hours, singing and dancing
Speaker 1: like her cardio was next level. I did a little
Speaker 1: bit of research and I found some quotes from Taylor's
Speaker 1: p T. Kirk Myers, and he said there was an
Speaker 1: off season where she wasn't really touring, and an in
Speaker 1: season when she was and off season training was swift.
Speaker 1: They were in the gym six days a week for
Speaker 1: sometimes up to two hours a day, focusing on strength,
Speaker 1: conditioning and targeting her core, which was key to her singing.
Speaker 2: And her dancing.
Speaker 1: Taylor trained during the entire tour still and would average
Speaker 1: two times a week in season, training was more about
Speaker 1: maintenance and it was more likely stability mobility by mechanics.
Speaker 1: And if you've seen the show, you know how intense
Speaker 1: it is physically. Imagine doing three to four days in
Speaker 1: a row, three hour shows a night, plus flying around
Speaker 1: the world and showing up to a gym. I mean,
Speaker 1: that's crazy, that's Taylor, That's crazy. He actually pointed out
Speaker 1: as a trainer that one thing they really do focus
Speaker 1: on is her core and the strength of her breathing,
Speaker 1: because a breathing is a really big part of your core,
Speaker 1: and fully breathing throughout your workouts helps to strengthen your
Speaker 1: and it would be so important for her singing, so
Speaker 1: her die fram even you know from pelvic floor die fram.
Speaker 2: All the parts of the core really important.
Speaker 1: In that I've trained a fair few celebrities, if you
Speaker 1: follow me, some very important people.
Speaker 2: Training a celebrity is a lot of pressure.
Speaker 1: And I've had a few of them come to me
Speaker 1: with goals, specific goals that they needed to target, be
Speaker 1: it weight loss or basic just.
Speaker 2: Conditioning for a film role or something like that.
Speaker 1: And you do need to tailor your approach specifically for
Speaker 1: that celebrity, whereas in the general population their goals aren't
Speaker 1: usually as specific. So you really do need to look
Speaker 1: at your training intensity and volume a little bit differently,
Speaker 1: and it's not as skilled specific training as if you
Speaker 1: were training an athlete. It's more for aesthetics, which is
Speaker 1: something different for me as well. I guess I would
Speaker 1: prefer sports specific training and more athletic training overall aesthetics.
Speaker 2: But I get it. It's image and it's important.
Speaker 1: But I was very, very impressed by Taylor's cardio ability. Oh,
Speaker 1: and I thought, I want to try her workout, which
Speaker 1: would be like singing her set list whilst I'm lightly jogging,
Speaker 1: because sometimes she was running on that stage, sometimes she
Speaker 1: was jogging, sometimes she was walking, but she was moving
Speaker 1: that entire time. So if you were on a treadmill
Speaker 1: for three hours, going at different paces during different songs, oh,
Speaker 1: I don't think I could do it. Seriously, I don't
Speaker 1: think my cardio would be up to it. I'm astonished actually,
Speaker 1: So I know when I this is such a low level,
Speaker 1: But when I teach my TXO workouts and you know
Speaker 1: I'm filming twenty or thirty workouts in a day, and
Speaker 1: I have to talk and exercise at the same time.
Speaker 2: I have to train for that.
Speaker 1: Because say, now you said, tif, I need you to
Speaker 1: film a program, I wouldn't be able to do it
Speaker 1: because I haven't been training in that way, and I
Speaker 1: wouldn't be able to talk and move in a video.
Speaker 1: You want me to be able to talk as I'm talking,
Speaker 1: now you and paffing, because you wouldn't be able to
Speaker 1: make out what I'm saying. So you have to be
Speaker 1: super fit and train cardio. And usually I will talk
Speaker 1: as I'm running or sing along as I'm running outside
Speaker 1: or something, or in treadmill, in my home gym or
Speaker 1: where no one can see me. And that's a way
Speaker 1: to build cardio fitness so that you can talk and move.
Speaker 1: And I'm low level, like I'm just doing star jumps
Speaker 1: over here and talking in a normal voice. She's hitting
Speaker 1: the high notes, she is playing guitar, she's dancing her
Speaker 1: she's amazing, Like I am just the biggest fan of
Speaker 1: her endurance. I just think she's a phenomenal athlete. Taylor
Speaker 1: Swift so compared to other celebs I've trained, all their
Speaker 1: goals have been so so different, and some of the
Speaker 1: celebs I've trained have had multiple trainers for different aspects,
Speaker 1: Like I was brought in for a bit more of
Speaker 1: a martial arty conditioning side of things, whereas they.
Speaker 2: Also had a trainer for muscle building.
Speaker 1: So it's interesting to see how, you know, celebrities have
Speaker 1: all these different things and different different systems in place
Speaker 1: to get what they need. You know, I've had I've
Speaker 1: trained celebrities with personal chefs, and you think, wow, Like,
Speaker 1: imagine you had a personal chef, like just cook for
Speaker 1: you all the meals, have all your macros perfectly mapped out,
Speaker 1: delicious meals. Of course you'd be in good shape. Right,
Speaker 1: someone's just serving you the food. All you have to
Speaker 1: do is eat it and then do what your training
Speaker 1: tells you, and of course you'd be in an amazing shape. Like,
Speaker 1: there's just some incredible systems out there to support people
Speaker 1: to make sure that they are in peak condition all
Speaker 1: the time. And it's that behind the scenes stuff that
Speaker 1: you don't see and you don't know about that I
Speaker 1: think is really misleading because you think, oh, that's just
Speaker 1: them on a good day.
Speaker 2: It's not.
Speaker 1: They've got all these people working in the background for them,
Speaker 1: making sure that they get up in the morning and
Speaker 1: that they are doing all the work.
Speaker 2: And so I can't imagine.
Speaker 1: The entourage that Taylor Swift would have and the support
Speaker 1: networks that she would have to make sure that she
Speaker 1: can perform day in day out, back to back shows,
Speaker 1: three hours a night, like just incredible.
Speaker 2: My name is Taylor, I'll be your host. Becuse me,
Speaker 2: thank you for joining us your own ears tour.
Speaker 1: I went to the Eras tour and I was so excited.
Speaker 1: I mean, it was the best night ever. I dressed
Speaker 1: up in my sparkles. I went in the Fearless Error.
Speaker 1: I had like a little sparkly dress and some cowboy
Speaker 1: boots on and ah, so fun.
Speaker 2: It was so amazing.
Speaker 1: And when she popped up out of the shell fans,
Speaker 1: I just I lost my breath, Like she was just
Speaker 1: so stunning, and her singing was amazing, and even when
Speaker 1: she did the acoustic stuff, it was phenomenal.
Speaker 2: She didn't miss a beat, she didn't drop a note.
Speaker 1: She was just so professional, and I thought that really
Speaker 1: shone through. That is practice, that is rehearsing, that is
Speaker 1: you know, discipline, and she strikes me as such a
Speaker 1: disciplined person. I really respected that and on the night,
Speaker 1: the atmosphere at the MCG was just electric and everyone
Speaker 1: singing along to her songs and it was such.
Speaker 2: A beautiful vibe.
Speaker 1: She's created such a strong community, and it's that power
Speaker 1: of community, isn't it. It's a power of community and
Speaker 1: it's just unbreakable. It's not just fandom and it's not
Speaker 1: just looking up to someone. It's a community. You feel bonded.
Speaker 1: The Swifties a bond and it's just incredible. Thanks so
