You know, I'm very literaryly evolved, right. 137 00:06:56,680 --> 00:06:59,920 Speaker 1: A recent study from pen A recent study from Pence 138 00:07:00,320 --> 00:07:05,839 Speaker 1: University discovered that ninety one percent of hypothetical future problems 139 00:07:05,880 --> 00:07:10,040 Speaker 1: that people worry about never materialize, and of the remaining 140 00:07:10,160 --> 00:07:13,800 Speaker 1: nine percent of concerns that did come true, the outcome 141 00:07:13,920 --> 00:07:16,600 Speaker 1: was often better than expected, and for about one in 142 00:07:16,680 --> 00:07:22,400 Speaker 1: four participants, exactly zero of their worries materialized. How much 143 00:07:22,480 --> 00:07:25,440 Speaker 1: time do we spend obsessing about shit that's never going 144 00:07:25,520 --> 00:07:26,320 Speaker 1: to happen? Mate? 145 00:07:27,520 --> 00:07:30,040 Speaker 3: Well, I could have got a PhD in in the 146 00:07:30,120 --> 00:07:34,400 Speaker 3: twenties and thirties, rest got a few of them. I'm surprised, 147 00:07:34,440 --> 00:07:36,240 Speaker 3: I bloody will should have or was that dem good 148 00:07:36,240 --> 00:07:40,680 Speaker 3: at it? And it's just absolute truth, mate, And we 149 00:07:40,680 --> 00:07:46,080 Speaker 3: waste so much time, energy, headspace, bandwidth, emotion, miss out 150 00:07:46,080 --> 00:07:47,760 Speaker 3: on where we are and all the good stuff and 151 00:07:47,840 --> 00:07:52,600 Speaker 3: any potential creativity or innovations absolutely got us on at 152 00:07:52,640 --> 00:07:56,600 Speaker 3: that point because you're in your head, you're worried what 153 00:07:56,640 --> 00:08:00,920 Speaker 3: if scenarios? You know, when we create, generally crave certainty 154 00:08:00,920 --> 00:08:04,920 Speaker 3: and hate change, But unfortunately change is the only constant, 155 00:08:04,960 --> 00:08:08,000 Speaker 3: and we've got to learn to embrace uncertainty because there 156 00:08:08,040 --> 00:08:11,160 Speaker 3: in lies the opportunity industry's life, you know whatever. It 157 00:08:11,240 --> 00:08:16,520 Speaker 3: may be much easier said than done, very simple in theory, 158 00:08:16,640 --> 00:08:21,280 Speaker 3: very hard in execution. And you know, I think about 159 00:08:21,280 --> 00:08:24,560 Speaker 3: cliches sometimes because like they're cliches for a reason, and 160 00:08:24,560 --> 00:08:26,520 Speaker 3: when you're young, you're like, yeah, whatever, But you think 161 00:08:26,560 --> 00:08:30,560 Speaker 3: of cliches now and patience is a virtue or however 162 00:08:30,600 --> 00:08:32,920 Speaker 3: many that there are, and there's so much truth in 163 00:08:32,960 --> 00:08:35,880 Speaker 3: each and every one of them while they became cliches. 164 00:08:35,280 --> 00:08:37,720 Speaker 2: But not easy to live by as rules. 165 00:08:38,679 --> 00:08:40,959 Speaker 3: But like, we get good at what we do, and 166 00:08:41,120 --> 00:08:42,920 Speaker 3: you know, we should focus on the right things and 167 00:08:42,960 --> 00:08:47,120 Speaker 3: we prioritize that. Then we do get better on sort 168 00:08:47,120 --> 00:08:50,080 Speaker 3: of a case in point. But it's an every day, 169 00:08:50,120 --> 00:08:52,560 Speaker 3: forever job. If you get sort of sloppy with it, 170 00:08:52,600 --> 00:08:54,440 Speaker 3: you cook your head. Just stick it in the microwave 171 00:08:54,480 --> 00:08:59,120 Speaker 3: a few metal forks and that's the result head cooking 172 00:08:59,440 --> 00:09:02,920 Speaker 3: in the world the microwave. Choose your poison, so and 173 00:09:03,080 --> 00:09:06,800 Speaker 3: mate something with your PhD neuroscience. 174 00:09:06,840 --> 00:09:08,400 Speaker 2: Nonetheless, I believe. 175 00:09:10,240 --> 00:09:13,800 Speaker 3: I've been fascinated lately with posture, and I'm doing a 176 00:09:13,840 --> 00:09:16,400 Speaker 3: few little other things outside of coaching and speaking, and 177 00:09:16,440 --> 00:09:20,120 Speaker 3: maybe a little startup on the horizon, going back to 178 00:09:20,120 --> 00:09:23,840 Speaker 3: the grassroots, mate sports science, leveraging a bit of that stuff. 179 00:09:24,000 --> 00:09:26,640 Speaker 2: And just obviously you. 180 00:09:26,640 --> 00:09:31,360 Speaker 3: Mentioned anxiety and parasympathetic verse sympathetic nervous system, and what 181 00:09:31,400 --> 00:09:35,080 Speaker 3: I've noticed. I actually spoke to Paul Batman, who you'd know, 182 00:09:35,240 --> 00:09:37,719 Speaker 3: and he's we've been chatting a bit about this, and 183 00:09:37,840 --> 00:09:47,479 Speaker 3: like aesthetic versu athletic posture, aesthetic you know, stand up tall, 184 00:09:47,480 --> 00:09:51,319 Speaker 3: stand up tall tommy in shoulders back, Well, you're guaranteed 185 00:09:51,360 --> 00:09:53,480 Speaker 3: to breathe into your chest right then and there, ladies 186 00:09:53,480 --> 00:09:56,000 Speaker 3: and gentlemen, which will stimulate the sympathetic nervous system, which 187 00:09:56,000 --> 00:09:59,960 Speaker 3: will stimulate anxiety, stress, and head noise versus. And I've 188 00:10:00,000 --> 00:10:01,920 Speaker 3: I believe in an area that's been missed is the 189 00:10:01,960 --> 00:10:04,839 Speaker 3: thoracic spine a lot more than the lumber because it's 190 00:10:04,840 --> 00:10:08,720 Speaker 3: not as easy to detect the curvature and where the 191 00:10:08,760 --> 00:10:12,480 Speaker 3: sternum is. And we walk around resisting gravity all the time, 192 00:10:12,600 --> 00:10:15,040 Speaker 3: especially if you're a short ass like me four point seven, 193 00:10:15,720 --> 00:10:19,400 Speaker 3: and like so, I guess there's short people are probably 194 00:10:19,440 --> 00:10:21,240 Speaker 3: more prone to it than really tall people who want 195 00:10:21,240 --> 00:10:23,600 Speaker 3: to be a bit shorter to fit in. But that's 196 00:10:23,640 --> 00:10:26,640 Speaker 3: just my hypothesis. But you resist gravity and you stand 197 00:10:26,720 --> 00:10:30,560 Speaker 3: up for all or all these things, and you a 198 00:10:30,640 --> 00:10:32,560 Speaker 3: real good chance to breathe up into your chest and 199 00:10:32,600 --> 00:10:35,920 Speaker 3: stimulate the sympathetic nervous system as opposed to the parasympathetic 200 00:10:36,320 --> 00:10:38,880 Speaker 3: versus breathing into your belly. And it's quite profound when 201 00:10:38,920 --> 00:10:41,120 Speaker 3: you're breathing into your obviously you drop your sternum. 202 00:10:42,320 --> 00:10:44,000 Speaker 2: You can't not breathe into your belly. 203 00:10:44,080 --> 00:10:47,320 Speaker 3: And based you know what the thoracic spine is doing 204 00:10:47,320 --> 00:10:50,080 Speaker 3: and where it funnels the air, and you create that 205 00:10:50,160 --> 00:10:53,200 Speaker 3: intra adominal pressure which leads into a core, and how 206 00:10:53,320 --> 00:10:56,000 Speaker 3: core can be misdiagnosed as well that you know, we're 207 00:10:56,040 --> 00:10:58,920 Speaker 3: at UNI and what we thought was right and the 208 00:10:59,000 --> 00:11:01,880 Speaker 3: role of the spinal erect versus the intra abdominal pressure. 209 00:11:01,880 --> 00:11:03,640 Speaker 2: Look at PARPs Is, like, where's this bloke come from? 210 00:11:03,679 --> 00:11:05,960 Speaker 3: He's boon on a farm and he's firing up the 211 00:11:06,000 --> 00:11:08,760 Speaker 3: old sports science degree. But I like to surprise you 212 00:11:08,800 --> 00:11:11,600 Speaker 3: at times, Craig Anthony, having known it as long as 213 00:11:11,600 --> 00:11:14,280 Speaker 3: I have it, but. 214 00:11:14,400 --> 00:11:17,280 Speaker 2: The I'm a bit fascinated by it. 215 00:11:17,280 --> 00:11:20,360 Speaker 3: Now For all the listeners, this will absolutely blow your 216 00:11:20,400 --> 00:11:24,720 Speaker 3: socks off if you're wearing any and that is tonight, 217 00:11:24,960 --> 00:11:26,640 Speaker 3: sit on the edge of the better on a chair 218 00:11:26,960 --> 00:11:32,120 Speaker 3: with your shoulders above your hips, and exhale fully so 219 00:11:32,200 --> 00:11:35,480 Speaker 3: you've got no air in your lungs. You exhale it 220 00:11:35,520 --> 00:11:37,079 Speaker 3: fully and then try to stand. 221 00:11:36,880 --> 00:11:43,560 Speaker 1: Up and hang on. So are we sitting upright or 222 00:11:43,600 --> 00:11:45,400 Speaker 1: are we leaning forward? What do we know? 223 00:11:45,520 --> 00:11:47,720 Speaker 2: You're sitting upright. You want your shoulders above your hips. 224 00:11:47,720 --> 00:11:51,720 Speaker 3: You don't lean forward, use momentum and your dead set 225 00:11:51,760 --> 00:11:54,199 Speaker 3: got the wobbly boot on like you've had a thousand schooners. 226 00:11:54,240 --> 00:11:58,760 Speaker 3: Because when you look at the human skeleton from the 227 00:11:58,880 --> 00:12:02,200 Speaker 3: ribs up and the pelvis down, it's very you know, 228 00:12:02,440 --> 00:12:04,720 Speaker 3: the skeleton and whatnot. There's quite a bit going on. 229 00:12:04,800 --> 00:12:07,760 Speaker 3: But between the bottom rib and the pelvis, this fuck 230 00:12:07,800 --> 00:12:10,839 Speaker 3: all just a pole i e. Your spine and if 231 00:12:10,840 --> 00:12:13,720 Speaker 3: you don't have a little belly balloon in there like 232 00:12:13,760 --> 00:12:15,640 Speaker 3: a little bit. So what happens is when we go 233 00:12:15,720 --> 00:12:17,839 Speaker 3: to get up, is that we have the slight a 234 00:12:17,840 --> 00:12:19,640 Speaker 3: little inhale that we don't realize. 235 00:12:20,240 --> 00:12:23,000 Speaker 2: And that's what it increases, you know, inflates. 236 00:12:23,040 --> 00:12:25,880 Speaker 3: That balloon slightly increases that pressure for the core muscles 237 00:12:25,880 --> 00:12:30,920 Speaker 3: to brace against versus drawing the belly button in as 238 00:12:30,960 --> 00:12:33,280 Speaker 3: we were sort of thinking way back in the day. 239 00:12:33,520 --> 00:12:36,680 Speaker 3: And then wushka, and an even more powerful one is 240 00:12:36,760 --> 00:12:41,280 Speaker 3: lying on the bed and exhalefully x holeefully nowhere in 241 00:12:41,320 --> 00:12:43,120 Speaker 3: your tummy and try to get up from lying down 242 00:12:43,160 --> 00:12:47,240 Speaker 3: your dead set can't like we just we don't realize 243 00:12:47,240 --> 00:12:51,000 Speaker 3: that we have this inhale and inflate that balloon so subtly, 244 00:12:51,559 --> 00:12:55,599 Speaker 3: so automatically, involuntarily. And I propose that's why babies have 245 00:12:55,640 --> 00:12:58,360 Speaker 3: about seven thousand false starts before they can stand up 246 00:12:58,360 --> 00:13:02,320 Speaker 3: and walk, because you can't do it when you haven't 247 00:13:02,320 --> 00:13:04,400 Speaker 3: got air in your belly like that. And but we're not, 248 00:13:04,559 --> 00:13:06,480 Speaker 3: we don't have what we're learning when we're babies. Forgot 249 00:13:06,480 --> 00:13:08,000 Speaker 3: I know what I learned last week, little and when 250 00:13:08,000 --> 00:13:11,079 Speaker 3: I was a baby. So therein lies the thing, and 251 00:13:11,400 --> 00:13:14,920 Speaker 3: that dovetails into performance posture and what the best golfers 252 00:13:14,920 --> 00:13:17,040 Speaker 3: and horse riders and what not do that, But. 253 00:13:16,960 --> 00:13:18,640 Speaker 2: They don't think they do or know they do. 254 00:13:18,720 --> 00:13:20,319 Speaker 3: And then when you ask them what they do, they 255 00:13:20,360 --> 00:13:22,880 Speaker 3: overthink it and they tell you something else because it's 256 00:13:22,880 --> 00:13:26,320 Speaker 3: so subtle, really fascinating when it comes to sort of 257 00:13:26,679 --> 00:13:30,880 Speaker 3: athletic or performance posture versus esthetic posture. Walking into a 258 00:13:30,960 --> 00:13:34,760 Speaker 3: room suck the guts in stand up tall, but doesn't lend. 259 00:13:34,800 --> 00:13:38,480 Speaker 3: It's not conducive to optimal cour stability and or strength 260 00:13:38,520 --> 00:13:39,480 Speaker 3: and or performance. 261 00:13:42,520 --> 00:13:45,120 Speaker 1: Rather than walking into a room. You know, I'm being 262 00:13:45,200 --> 00:13:48,160 Speaker 1: bolt upright like a fucking adore with a pair of 263 00:13:48,200 --> 00:13:53,520 Speaker 1: glasses on, javelin like a cricket bat. What what should 264 00:13:54,480 --> 00:13:57,280 Speaker 1: so if I'm not standing up right? Shoulders back, chest out, 265 00:13:57,320 --> 00:13:59,840 Speaker 1: you know, a big as a tree? What what am 266 00:13:59,880 --> 00:14:01,760 Speaker 1: I doing? Like? What should my books? 267 00:14:02,280 --> 00:14:04,440 Speaker 3: You make? Because you're built like an adonna? So like 268 00:14:04,559 --> 00:14:07,160 Speaker 3: you know, it's hard for a blake of your stature. 269 00:14:07,520 --> 00:14:09,920 Speaker 3: But for the me, my mortals who got shoulders like 270 00:14:09,960 --> 00:14:12,920 Speaker 3: a javelin or whatnot? As I just thought i'd throw 271 00:14:12,960 --> 00:14:15,880 Speaker 3: that in because it makes me laugh. Shoulders like a javelin, 272 00:14:16,000 --> 00:14:16,360 Speaker 3: or like. 273 00:14:16,280 --> 00:14:18,800 Speaker 1: A brown snake or a bottle of milk. 274 00:14:19,360 --> 00:14:21,120 Speaker 2: Or a bottle of milk areas. 275 00:14:21,520 --> 00:14:24,000 Speaker 3: So no, but that comes back to do you remember 276 00:14:24,040 --> 00:14:27,920 Speaker 3: in like primary school or very early on, we sort 277 00:14:27,960 --> 00:14:30,240 Speaker 3: of were shown to balance a book on their head 278 00:14:30,240 --> 00:14:33,520 Speaker 3: and walk around. Yeah, yeah, mate, I think the best 279 00:14:33,560 --> 00:14:34,440 Speaker 3: team they did that. 280 00:14:35,000 --> 00:14:37,680 Speaker 1: I think they did that in elocution classes. 281 00:14:38,440 --> 00:14:41,560 Speaker 3: June Dalley Watkins or whatever. Yes, I believe it was 282 00:14:41,680 --> 00:14:45,040 Speaker 3: way back in the house in days, but yeah, that one. 283 00:14:45,080 --> 00:14:46,840 Speaker 3: But I remember doing it and it used to fall 284 00:14:46,880 --> 00:14:49,840 Speaker 3: off all the time because my sternum was elevated, my 285 00:14:49,920 --> 00:14:53,880 Speaker 3: thoracic spine was lengthened and straightened. What happens is when 286 00:14:53,880 --> 00:14:56,240 Speaker 3: you drop does this let go like if you stand 287 00:14:56,320 --> 00:14:58,120 Speaker 3: up and you just look down and then lift your 288 00:14:58,120 --> 00:14:58,480 Speaker 3: head up. 289 00:14:59,200 --> 00:15:00,960 Speaker 2: Your sternham is the or when. 290 00:15:00,800 --> 00:15:03,840 Speaker 3: We're up and resisting gravity and then we drop our sternum, 291 00:15:03,880 --> 00:15:07,120 Speaker 3: drops in our chin pops stern and drops chin pops 292 00:15:07,120 --> 00:15:09,000 Speaker 3: and then the book's flattening. Can walk around all day 293 00:15:09,000 --> 00:15:11,640 Speaker 3: and it doesn't fall off. And I'm like, oh, that's 294 00:15:11,680 --> 00:15:13,600 Speaker 3: what we were meant to be doing back in the day, 295 00:15:13,600 --> 00:15:16,040 Speaker 3: and no wonder I couldn't do it because we're resisting 296 00:15:16,040 --> 00:15:19,000 Speaker 3: gravity the whole time and we're a thoracic spine is 297 00:15:19,040 --> 00:15:22,400 Speaker 3: more engaging when you drop it, you're breathing to your belly, parasympathetic. 298 00:15:23,480 --> 00:15:24,960 Speaker 2: Great for sports and what have you. 299 00:15:25,040 --> 00:15:28,360 Speaker 3: And the other kicker is when we do deadlifts and squats, 300 00:15:28,400 --> 00:15:31,440 Speaker 3: that's actually the posture we're in, but we set up 301 00:15:31,440 --> 00:15:35,640 Speaker 3: behind the bar or whatnot. And we're tall and exaggerated, 302 00:15:35,680 --> 00:15:37,400 Speaker 3: but as soon as the weight is on us, then 303 00:15:37,440 --> 00:15:40,040 Speaker 3: we drop into that posture because of the weight. But 304 00:15:40,080 --> 00:15:43,520 Speaker 3: when there's no weight, we often resist gravity and to 305 00:15:43,640 --> 00:15:46,400 Speaker 3: our detriment in a lot of ways, especially with the like. 306 00:15:46,480 --> 00:15:49,200 Speaker 3: And there's a lot of things with the endocrine system, 307 00:15:49,240 --> 00:15:52,600 Speaker 3: the respiratory system, neurologically, it's all linked, as you know 308 00:15:52,680 --> 00:15:55,800 Speaker 3: better than anyone, and it all comes, I believe, come 309 00:15:55,840 --> 00:15:58,800 Speaker 3: back to posture and this whole idea of diaphragmatic breathing. 310 00:15:59,160 --> 00:16:02,880 Speaker 3: When the sternams dropped, well, the diaphragm can work properly. 311 00:16:04,160 --> 00:16:07,880 Speaker 1: So okay, so some people are going, yeah, right, cool, 312 00:16:07,920 --> 00:16:10,600 Speaker 1: But how do I stand? Though? So what's an optimal 313 00:16:10,640 --> 00:16:13,800 Speaker 1: standing position? If I'm watching the footy and I'm standing 314 00:16:13,800 --> 00:16:16,040 Speaker 1: there for an hour and I've got a beer in 315 00:16:16,080 --> 00:16:19,480 Speaker 1: my left hand or a fucking chocolate milk, what's the 316 00:16:19,640 --> 00:16:23,080 Speaker 1: optimal standing Like, what's my posture doing? If I'm doing 317 00:16:23,080 --> 00:16:23,520 Speaker 1: it right? 318 00:16:24,040 --> 00:16:27,960 Speaker 3: Well, you just rather than you just let go so 319 00:16:28,400 --> 00:16:31,200 Speaker 3: you'll feel like how when you're aware of it, you'll 320 00:16:31,240 --> 00:16:33,640 Speaker 3: just see how you're standing more upright than you need 321 00:16:33,680 --> 00:16:36,320 Speaker 3: to be, and your hips come under you and you 322 00:16:36,480 --> 00:16:40,880 Speaker 3: just relax. It's sort of like the bones not the muscles, 323 00:16:41,640 --> 00:16:44,480 Speaker 3: you know, and the head just sits there like a 324 00:16:44,520 --> 00:16:46,640 Speaker 3: billiard ball on a pool queue, if you will. 325 00:16:46,880 --> 00:16:48,040 Speaker 2: So you're not like. 326 00:16:48,960 --> 00:16:50,520 Speaker 3: You feel your head out of the way to your 327 00:16:50,520 --> 00:16:52,440 Speaker 3: head actually more in the back of your neck instead 328 00:16:52,440 --> 00:16:53,360 Speaker 3: of your lumbers spine. 329 00:16:54,320 --> 00:16:57,360 Speaker 1: Oh wow. So I feel like though, for a lot 330 00:16:57,360 --> 00:17:00,240 Speaker 1: of people that do that, they're going to just look 331 00:17:00,360 --> 00:17:04,719 Speaker 1: like a fucking hiphotic kind of you know, shoulders forward, 332 00:17:04,840 --> 00:17:05,600 Speaker 1: rounded back. 333 00:17:06,400 --> 00:17:11,080 Speaker 3: Is that well, look, well it would look As a 334 00:17:11,080 --> 00:17:14,600 Speaker 3: sports scientist, I would say it would look like lazy posture, yes, 335 00:17:15,640 --> 00:17:18,879 Speaker 3: versus you know, esthetic posture or what we were taught 336 00:17:18,920 --> 00:17:20,920 Speaker 3: was athletic. But when you've got a wait, as I said, 337 00:17:20,960 --> 00:17:24,119 Speaker 3: that's not what you're doing anyway. But yeah, and you 338 00:17:24,280 --> 00:17:25,879 Speaker 3: just relax, and you know, I've been working on a 339 00:17:25,920 --> 00:17:28,679 Speaker 3: golf swing system and the all and a few different 340 00:17:28,680 --> 00:17:32,600 Speaker 3: bits and pieces and yeah, just tinking away in the 341 00:17:32,600 --> 00:17:35,800 Speaker 3: back shed out here, and and yeah, a lot of 342 00:17:35,800 --> 00:17:39,199 Speaker 3: these learnings and just the performance enhancements that they have. 343 00:17:39,920 --> 00:17:42,960 Speaker 3: But also like you know, in golf as an example, 344 00:17:43,040 --> 00:17:46,280 Speaker 3: like a lot of these top golf pros that they 345 00:17:46,280 --> 00:17:50,720 Speaker 3: suffer from stress fractures, in their lower back. It's very common, right, 346 00:17:50,760 --> 00:17:53,520 Speaker 3: because they've got an engaged lumber spine, you know, and 347 00:17:53,520 --> 00:17:58,239 Speaker 3: they're Stirnam's up the thoracic lumbers engaged, they overdo it. 348 00:17:58,240 --> 00:18:01,639 Speaker 3: It's over engaged versus let gravity dropped them over the 349 00:18:01,680 --> 00:18:04,000 Speaker 3: ball better, like they you know, they swung the club 350 00:18:04,000 --> 00:18:07,240 Speaker 3: when they were fifteen, sixteen, seventeen, arguably at their best 351 00:18:07,280 --> 00:18:10,400 Speaker 3: when they were freak junior golfers. And I think it's 352 00:18:10,440 --> 00:18:13,760 Speaker 3: sort of come from sports science actually, like our domain 353 00:18:13,960 --> 00:18:18,040 Speaker 3: over cooking, the posture piece that's flown into coaching, you know, 354 00:18:18,080 --> 00:18:21,879 Speaker 3: that's gone into coaching in sports, and it's you know, 355 00:18:22,000 --> 00:18:25,080 Speaker 3: two people's detriment. It's really interesting, but it's what I 356 00:18:25,320 --> 00:18:28,160 Speaker 3: for the general population, what's interesting is how many people 357 00:18:28,200 --> 00:18:30,119 Speaker 3: have anxiety, and you know, how much of that is 358 00:18:30,160 --> 00:18:33,080 Speaker 3: related to where the breath goes the chest or the 359 00:18:33,080 --> 00:18:36,320 Speaker 3: belly or the diaphragm or you know, and I believe 360 00:18:36,359 --> 00:18:37,600 Speaker 3: that could be postural. 361 00:18:38,520 --> 00:18:43,680 Speaker 1: Yeah. Yeah. And also when you think about like everybody, 362 00:18:43,840 --> 00:18:46,159 Speaker 1: you know, some people have what's called which you know, 363 00:18:46,240 --> 00:18:48,760 Speaker 1: but I'll explain it for our listeners, like anterior pelvic 364 00:18:48,800 --> 00:18:52,040 Speaker 1: tilt where they're kind of their pelvis tilts forward a 365 00:18:52,080 --> 00:18:55,520 Speaker 1: bit or posterior pelvic tilt, you know, and people who 366 00:18:55,520 --> 00:18:57,880 Speaker 1: have like what we would call that kind of where 367 00:18:57,920 --> 00:18:59,879 Speaker 1: you're at the front of your pelvis is much like 368 00:19:00,240 --> 00:19:03,439 Speaker 1: than the back. Then you have that sway back or 369 00:19:03,440 --> 00:19:07,280 Speaker 1: that lordonic kind of posture. And then other people almost 370 00:19:07,320 --> 00:19:10,200 Speaker 1: have like a flat spine. Some people are quite cyphotic, 371 00:19:10,280 --> 00:19:14,200 Speaker 1: that hunchy back. Some people, like an alarming amount of 372 00:19:14,240 --> 00:19:17,560 Speaker 1: people have a bit of scoliosis, you know, either very 373 00:19:17,640 --> 00:19:22,440 Speaker 1: minor or dramatic curvature of the spine. And everybody's skeleton 374 00:19:23,160 --> 00:19:26,280 Speaker 1: really is in a way, you know, we've all got 375 00:19:26,280 --> 00:19:29,320 Speaker 1: a skeleton, but they ain't all the same. And then 376 00:19:29,680 --> 00:19:32,200 Speaker 1: and then we when you think about all the muscles, ligaments, 377 00:19:32,280 --> 00:19:37,720 Speaker 1: tenons that attached to the skeleton and then move you know, joints, neflextion, extension, 378 00:19:37,920 --> 00:19:41,960 Speaker 1: blah blah blah blah blah. Like to say that everyone 379 00:19:42,000 --> 00:19:46,120 Speaker 1: should lift exactly this way, like you should all dead 380 00:19:46,160 --> 00:19:48,280 Speaker 1: lift this way. Well no, not if you've got a 381 00:19:48,320 --> 00:19:51,719 Speaker 1: different skeleton to me. There needs to be an adaptation 382 00:19:51,880 --> 00:19:55,560 Speaker 1: or modification, you know. Like one of the funny things 383 00:19:55,680 --> 00:20:03,879 Speaker 1: is my left leg is more externally rotated than sorry, 384 00:20:03,880 --> 00:20:06,600 Speaker 1: my right leg is more externally rotated than my left. 385 00:20:06,960 --> 00:20:11,360 Speaker 1: So I'm if I'm doing a squat my left foot 386 00:20:11,400 --> 00:20:14,720 Speaker 1: is it about you know, three minutes to twelve or 387 00:20:14,800 --> 00:20:17,919 Speaker 1: five minutes to twelve, But my right foot is at 388 00:20:17,920 --> 00:20:19,000 Speaker 1: about ten. 389 00:20:18,920 --> 00:20:22,400 Speaker 2: Past yeah, yeah, right, So instead of. 390 00:20:22,320 --> 00:20:24,800 Speaker 1: Being at the twelve o'clock, my left foot is turned 391 00:20:24,840 --> 00:20:27,880 Speaker 1: out a bit, my right foot is turned out more. Now, 392 00:20:27,920 --> 00:20:30,560 Speaker 1: if you look at me squatting, you would go, oh fuck, 393 00:20:30,640 --> 00:20:33,719 Speaker 1: put your right foot in because it's turned out. But 394 00:20:33,760 --> 00:20:35,840 Speaker 1: when I try and do that, when I try and 395 00:20:35,880 --> 00:20:38,919 Speaker 1: get the same angle in both feet, it feels like 396 00:20:39,119 --> 00:20:43,800 Speaker 1: my right hip and right fema are twisted. So and 397 00:20:43,800 --> 00:20:47,320 Speaker 1: that's because all that, for whatever reason, my right leg 398 00:20:47,440 --> 00:20:50,520 Speaker 1: is externally rotated more than my left, which people who 399 00:20:50,560 --> 00:20:52,800 Speaker 1: don't know what they're looking for wouldn't notice it, right 400 00:20:52,880 --> 00:20:56,919 Speaker 1: of course. But for me, where I am feeling the 401 00:20:56,920 --> 00:20:59,879 Speaker 1: most comfortable and natural, it's the most natural kind of 402 00:21:00,080 --> 00:21:04,199 Speaker 1: plane of movement. For me. To look at it looks fucked. 403 00:21:05,080 --> 00:21:08,199 Speaker 1: But when I do it, textbook, I get injured. 404 00:21:08,880 --> 00:21:11,680 Speaker 2: For sure. You know where they would solutely. 405 00:21:11,280 --> 00:21:14,920 Speaker 1: Example, you should have the exact same level of rotation next, 406 00:21:15,200 --> 00:21:17,880 Speaker 1: you know, so your feet, your feet should be let's 407 00:21:17,920 --> 00:21:21,760 Speaker 1: say it five to one, you know, five to one o'clock, 408 00:21:21,880 --> 00:21:26,119 Speaker 1: you know, like a or whatever. That is ten degrees 409 00:21:26,200 --> 00:21:28,960 Speaker 1: and ten degrees. But yeah, and so I think that. 410 00:21:29,680 --> 00:21:32,800 Speaker 1: But this thinking in general, like when you talk about 411 00:21:33,760 --> 00:21:37,320 Speaker 1: like that, that applies to a lot of things, doesn't it, 412 00:21:37,440 --> 00:21:39,200 Speaker 1: like in terms of it does. 413 00:21:39,359 --> 00:21:41,240 Speaker 2: But he's a good one, so I can to erupt. 414 00:21:41,240 --> 00:21:42,719 Speaker 2: He's a good one. You know. 415 00:21:42,840 --> 00:21:46,520 Speaker 3: Chest out, shoulders, back, tummy in. Yeah, do not pass, go, 416 00:21:46,720 --> 00:21:49,200 Speaker 3: do not collect two hundred dollars. Go straight to anterior 417 00:21:49,240 --> 00:21:52,399 Speaker 3: pelvic tilt if you chest out, shoulders back, tummy in, 418 00:21:52,480 --> 00:21:55,200 Speaker 3: tummy in, especially anterior pelvic til if you suck the 419 00:21:55,200 --> 00:21:58,840 Speaker 3: belly button in, the guts in, and if anyone's you know, 420 00:21:58,960 --> 00:22:02,560 Speaker 3: carrying a couple kg's and they generally will do that, right, 421 00:22:02,640 --> 00:22:06,160 Speaker 3: draw the tumming in and what have you. Aesthetically, there's 422 00:22:06,200 --> 00:22:10,040 Speaker 3: your anterior pelvic tilt. When you're just relax your belly drop. 423 00:22:10,680 --> 00:22:13,080 Speaker 3: You're not dropping your sternum like the bloody crunch. It's 424 00:22:13,119 --> 00:22:16,280 Speaker 3: just gravity. It's nothing more. It's nothing forced. There's no 425 00:22:16,359 --> 00:22:19,880 Speaker 3: manual labor. It's just letting the gravity do its thing. 426 00:22:19,880 --> 00:22:22,320 Speaker 3: And I think gravity is the thing that's been missed it. 427 00:22:22,400 --> 00:22:26,760 Speaker 3: We resist it all day unknowingly, and then that has 428 00:22:26,760 --> 00:22:31,920 Speaker 3: an effect. And when you don't, when you just let 429 00:22:31,920 --> 00:22:35,119 Speaker 3: your stomach relax, your pelvis is far more inclined to 430 00:22:35,119 --> 00:22:37,840 Speaker 3: go into a neutral position instead of anterior pelvic tilt, 431 00:22:37,840 --> 00:22:40,640 Speaker 3: which switches off the hammies, the glutes and the hammies 432 00:22:40,680 --> 00:22:44,680 Speaker 3: and just the glutes especially. Just have a holiday, and 433 00:22:45,119 --> 00:22:47,399 Speaker 3: you know and all this You just activate your glutes 434 00:22:47,400 --> 00:22:49,480 Speaker 3: and your hammies and all these things happen when you 435 00:22:49,560 --> 00:22:52,080 Speaker 3: actually let go against gravity and stop resisting it. 436 00:22:52,840 --> 00:22:55,560 Speaker 2: So yeah, it gets you into much better alignment. 437 00:22:56,359 --> 00:23:00,399 Speaker 1: Could I ask you look thick at the moment, And 438 00:23:00,400 --> 00:23:03,000 Speaker 1: by thick, I mean like you've put on some muscle, 439 00:23:03,240 --> 00:23:05,480 Speaker 1: Like you look larger than last time I. 440 00:23:05,400 --> 00:23:07,560 Speaker 2: Saw you a gym. 441 00:23:08,119 --> 00:23:10,080 Speaker 1: Oh so you so you're back in the. 442 00:23:11,600 --> 00:23:14,600 Speaker 3: Well.

Just yeah, you're just up the road. 448 00:23:26,480 --> 00:23:28,480 Speaker 1: You also look like you've got a tear in the 449 00:23:28,480 --> 00:23:29,400 Speaker 1: top of your bicep. 450 00:23:29,520 --> 00:23:35,120 Speaker 2: Is that right, correct, Yes, how'd you do that?

He he along with Simo, created Vision 462 00:24:16,920 --> 00:24:21,439 Speaker 1: Personal Training, biggest PT franchise in Australia. Still Simo is 463 00:24:21,440 --> 00:24:24,800 Speaker 1: still he's got more money than God. You're still killing it. 464 00:24:25,560 --> 00:24:27,960 Speaker 1: Yeah yeah, Jeff and I are saving up for fucking 465 00:24:28,080 --> 00:24:31,840 Speaker 1: rice and Simmo is just rolling around in his Bentley. 466 00:24:32,000 --> 00:24:34,240 Speaker 2: You've got plenty halps.

And but yeah you but 469 00:24:40,359 --> 00:24:42,560 Speaker 1: and you built you know, body trim and but you 470 00:24:42,680 --> 00:24:46,480 Speaker 1: lived in the physical space working with bodies and the 471 00:24:46,520 --> 00:24:50,560 Speaker 1: people who inhabited them for a long time. But and 472 00:24:50,600 --> 00:24:52,280 Speaker 1: it's not like you turned your back on that, but 473 00:24:52,320 --> 00:24:54,600 Speaker 1: you've been doing other things for a while. What dragged 474 00:24:54,640 --> 00:24:55,800 Speaker 1: you back into that space? 475 00:24:56,720 --> 00:24:58,200 Speaker 2: Well, good question, mate. 476 00:24:58,480 --> 00:25:01,480 Speaker 3: I think it started, well, a couple of things out 477 00:25:01,520 --> 00:25:03,280 Speaker 3: here in the boondocks. 478 00:25:04,960 --> 00:25:07,240 Speaker 2: I I thought about the. 479 00:25:07,280 --> 00:25:09,280 Speaker 3: Golf swing for a while I played all my life, 480 00:25:09,359 --> 00:25:16,520 Speaker 3: and and also horse riding, and just that all the 481 00:25:16,560 --> 00:25:21,679 Speaker 3: stuff around the golf swing and riding horses that just 482 00:25:21,680 --> 00:25:24,320 Speaker 3: didn't line up for me, just. 483 00:25:25,880 --> 00:25:26,359 Speaker 2: The people. 484 00:25:26,640 --> 00:25:31,080 Speaker 3: It was very ambiguous and or I just wasn't adding up. 485 00:25:31,280 --> 00:25:33,840 Speaker 3: And then I started this play around with a few 486 00:25:33,840 --> 00:25:41,200 Speaker 3: different things on horses hitting golf balls, and I started 487 00:25:41,359 --> 00:25:44,919 Speaker 3: and just understanding, you know, how the body sort of moved, 488 00:25:45,080 --> 00:25:49,760 Speaker 3: and realizing that some people have a lazy posture and 489 00:25:49,800 --> 00:25:52,080 Speaker 3: what have you in sports. 490 00:25:52,480 --> 00:25:53,240 Speaker 2: And others don't. 491 00:25:53,480 --> 00:25:56,479 Speaker 3: But the thing is, if you don't, you only know 492 00:25:56,520 --> 00:25:59,600 Speaker 3: what you have and you're not. People generally don't see 493 00:25:59,680 --> 00:26:04,160 Speaker 3: that others are not posturally the same or engaged as 494 00:26:04,280 --> 00:26:07,679 Speaker 3: much or as little. But I realized that the body, 495 00:26:07,680 --> 00:26:13,240 Speaker 3: the biomechanics of the body it were profoundly differently based 496 00:26:13,320 --> 00:26:18,040 Speaker 3: on your postural level of engagement. So the momentum forces 497 00:26:18,080 --> 00:26:21,639 Speaker 3: of the club head worked differently. How the horse moves 498 00:26:21,680 --> 00:26:24,520 Speaker 3: you is different based on how engaged and or tense 499 00:26:24,600 --> 00:26:29,080 Speaker 3: verse relaxed you are, so you know your center of 500 00:26:29,160 --> 00:26:31,520 Speaker 3: mass is higher or lower, your center of gravity, all 501 00:26:31,560 --> 00:26:34,080 Speaker 3: these how you use the ground over the golf board 502 00:26:34,160 --> 00:26:37,840 Speaker 3: all different. And then that I just sort of started 503 00:26:37,880 --> 00:26:39,480 Speaker 3: to join more and more dots. Teamed up with the 504 00:26:39,520 --> 00:26:41,440 Speaker 3: made of mine who's a golf pro, and he went, 505 00:26:41,520 --> 00:26:44,480 Speaker 3: hang on. Over time, we both realize that you know, 506 00:26:45,000 --> 00:26:47,680 Speaker 3: everyone's guessing. And now that we've started to join the dots, 507 00:26:47,720 --> 00:26:51,320 Speaker 3: it's like throwing darts. It's exciting. Same with horses. Riding 508 00:26:51,359 --> 00:26:54,920 Speaker 3: horses are totally different, and how you recycle the energy 509 00:26:54,960 --> 00:26:57,479 Speaker 3: of the horse into your body into the horse. And 510 00:26:57,760 --> 00:27:00,520 Speaker 3: because I know, another thing that stayed with me, I 511 00:27:00,560 --> 00:27:03,840 Speaker 3: guess nearly is sober gift of sobriety seven hundred and two. 512 00:27:04,760 --> 00:27:06,480 Speaker 3: Like I remember a lot of things that have said 513 00:27:06,480 --> 00:27:09,360 Speaker 3: to me and Glenn Boss the jockeys are made of mine. 514 00:27:09,400 --> 00:27:11,520 Speaker 3: He won three Melbourne Cups, so I'm guessing he's got 515 00:27:11,560 --> 00:27:14,560 Speaker 3: a pretty good clue about horses. And he was chatting 516 00:27:14,640 --> 00:27:18,359 Speaker 3: with chat picking his brain one day and you know 517 00:27:18,400 --> 00:27:20,800 Speaker 3: he said to me, he said, Jeffrey, just if anything 518 00:27:20,880 --> 00:27:24,040 Speaker 3: party is tense on a horse, just you know you're 519 00:27:24,080 --> 00:27:26,720 Speaker 3: going to bounce off. And I bounced that off a 520 00:27:26,720 --> 00:27:28,760 Speaker 3: lot of horsey people and they go, oh no, that's 521 00:27:28,800 --> 00:27:30,840 Speaker 3: not Oh no, I don't know about that bla B. 522 00:27:31,520 --> 00:27:34,000 Speaker 3: And over time I realized that, you know, there are 523 00:27:34,040 --> 00:27:38,120 Speaker 3: people riding a different seat position based on this posture thing, 524 00:27:38,240 --> 00:27:39,320 Speaker 3: and one. 525 00:27:39,200 --> 00:27:40,080 Speaker 2: Way is really hard. 526 00:27:40,119 --> 00:27:42,480 Speaker 3: And it's a bit like if a if you're piggybacking 527 00:27:42,480 --> 00:27:44,159 Speaker 3: a little kid on your back and they're digging their 528 00:27:44,240 --> 00:27:48,879 Speaker 3: knees into you versus not right, that's what the horse 529 00:27:48,920 --> 00:27:53,359 Speaker 3: feels based on your posture. And it's been profound with 530 00:27:53,440 --> 00:27:56,359 Speaker 3: horses and the way that they respond, and like really 531 00:27:56,520 --> 00:27:58,960 Speaker 3: it's the whole other world and the same thing with golf, 532 00:27:59,000 --> 00:28:00,520 Speaker 3: and now I can do things with golf that I 533 00:28:00,520 --> 00:28:04,320 Speaker 3: couldn't before. But getting it that that didn't really get 534 00:28:04,320 --> 00:28:06,119 Speaker 3: me into the gym. I had a few niggles with 535 00:28:06,160 --> 00:28:09,320 Speaker 3: the shoulders and whatnot, and I thought, no, it's time 536 00:28:09,480 --> 00:28:11,399 Speaker 3: I've been taking the piss out of it for a while. 537 00:28:12,600 --> 00:28:14,399 Speaker 3: Up I went like, just to get rid of the 538 00:28:14,480 --> 00:28:17,160 Speaker 3: niggles and just you know, they're all good now, thankfully, 539 00:28:17,200 --> 00:28:23,000 Speaker 3: And yeah, joining the gym was more just just to 540 00:28:23,040 --> 00:28:26,399 Speaker 3: get myself, you know, physically sort of fit and strong, 541 00:28:26,920 --> 00:28:30,000 Speaker 3: you know, and get rid of the niggles. And then 542 00:28:30,040 --> 00:28:33,800 Speaker 3: when I actually started doing weights again, I actually, more 543 00:28:33,840 --> 00:28:37,800 Speaker 3: than ever in my life, realized just the the mental 544 00:28:38,120 --> 00:28:41,400 Speaker 3: health benefits and just the brain just comes to life 545 00:28:41,480 --> 00:28:43,960 Speaker 3: so quickly for me when I start lifting weights, you know, 546 00:28:44,920 --> 00:28:47,160 Speaker 3: one set and it's just like woosh, the lights are on. 547 00:28:47,400 --> 00:28:48,720 Speaker 2: We how good is this? 548 00:28:48,920 --> 00:28:52,720 Speaker 3: And I probably didn't fully appreciate that in my younger 549 00:28:52,800 --> 00:28:55,800 Speaker 3: years because I trained most every day. But then you 550 00:28:55,840 --> 00:29:00,200 Speaker 3: stop and then you start your how wow, unbelievable? Like 551 00:29:00,440 --> 00:29:03,400 Speaker 3: that alone is just so critical. But I go in 552 00:29:03,440 --> 00:29:06,800 Speaker 3: there for like fifteen twenty minutes and I'm just doing 553 00:29:06,800 --> 00:29:07,600 Speaker 3: a thing and get out of there. 554 00:29:07,600 --> 00:29:09,280 Speaker 2: I'm not there. I'm not running marathons and. 555 00:29:09,200 --> 00:29:11,880 Speaker 3: I rock up in Ara and Williams or my gun 556 00:29:11,920 --> 00:29:14,640 Speaker 3: boots and I'm not running on the treadmill. Am I say, 557 00:29:14,720 --> 00:29:16,680 Speaker 3: like I don't need my runners or not that I 558 00:29:16,760 --> 00:29:18,880 Speaker 3: got a pair, But like I just get in there 559 00:29:18,920 --> 00:29:22,120 Speaker 3: and do basic compound lifts and blah blah blah, it's great. 560 00:29:22,600 --> 00:29:25,800 Speaker 3: Like I enjoy it for that, and well, actually I 561 00:29:25,800 --> 00:29:28,120 Speaker 3: don't know if I super love it because I did 562 00:29:28,200 --> 00:29:31,560 Speaker 3: it for eight million years, whereas as a young bloke 563 00:29:31,600 --> 00:29:33,280 Speaker 3: at the local gym and he's sort of you know, 564 00:29:33,600 --> 00:29:35,680 Speaker 3: young fella trying to put on some weight and you know, 565 00:29:35,720 --> 00:29:37,480 Speaker 3: blah blah blah, and you. 566 00:29:37,440 --> 00:29:38,440 Speaker 2: Know, I just loves it. 567 00:29:38,480 --> 00:29:39,760 Speaker 3: And they're like, man, you're going to get right right 568 00:29:39,800 --> 00:29:43,280 Speaker 3: into it, like what's happening now. But I'm like, mate, 569 00:29:43,280 --> 00:29:46,160 Speaker 3: I'm just just chip away like it does. It's it's 570 00:29:46,200 --> 00:29:46,880 Speaker 3: different when. 571 00:29:46,760 --> 00:29:50,200 Speaker 2: You did it thirty or for thirty. 572 00:29:49,960 --> 00:29:53,480 Speaker 3: Years, and I just recognize the importance and the benefit 573 00:29:53,520 --> 00:29:56,920 Speaker 3: of it. But I kind of like the life activities horses, 574 00:29:56,960 --> 00:29:59,440 Speaker 3: golf and those things a bit more in terms of 575 00:29:59,480 --> 00:30:04,360 Speaker 3: mental stings. But for the for the you know, physiological health, 576 00:30:04,480 --> 00:30:08,280 Speaker 3: mental health, like all those benefits are just realizing more 577 00:30:08,320 --> 00:30:08,960 Speaker 3: than I ever did. 578 00:30:09,720 --> 00:30:14,440 Speaker 1: Yeah, it's yeah as you get older, especially I mean 579 00:30:14,600 --> 00:30:17,719 Speaker 1: I'm a lot older than you. But I think apart 580 00:30:17,760 --> 00:30:20,080 Speaker 1: from all the other things that people you know could do, 581 00:30:20,200 --> 00:30:22,520 Speaker 1: Suck in some oxygen, get your heart rate up, do 582 00:30:22,600 --> 00:30:25,440 Speaker 1: some cardio, do a bit of stretching, you know, get 583 00:30:25,440 --> 00:30:27,880 Speaker 1: your feet in dirt, get your feet in sand, if 584 00:30:27,920 --> 00:30:30,479 Speaker 1: you can be in nature, hugger tree, all that stuff, 585 00:30:31,000 --> 00:30:33,760 Speaker 1: which is all important and I do all of that too. 586 00:30:34,960 --> 00:30:41,120 Speaker 1: It's like there is something unique about strength training that well, 587 00:30:41,360 --> 00:30:46,440 Speaker 1: we know that it's cognitively it's cognitively enhancing. It's cognitive enhancer. 588 00:30:46,440 --> 00:30:51,680 Speaker 1: It produces dopamine, makes you feel good, you know, muscle mass, posture, 589 00:30:51,800 --> 00:30:55,360 Speaker 1: bone density. Not so sure about the posture after today's chat. 590 00:30:55,680 --> 00:30:58,880 Speaker 1: But I mean there's a multi there's a multitude of benefits. 591 00:30:58,880 --> 00:31:01,640 Speaker 1: But as you said, and this is what people don't get, right, 592 00:31:02,440 --> 00:31:06,960 Speaker 1: you could literally the average punter if the average person 593 00:31:07,000 --> 00:31:09,680 Speaker 1: who never lifts weights went to a gym two times 594 00:31:09,720 --> 00:31:14,440 Speaker 1: a week, now here's the caveat and trained effectively, right, 595 00:31:14,680 --> 00:31:17,840 Speaker 1: not just fucking around thirty minutes. But if the average 596 00:31:17,880 --> 00:31:20,880 Speaker 1: punter went to maybe three times a week for thirty minutes, 597 00:31:20,920 --> 00:31:25,400 Speaker 1: and those thirty minutes were really productive and specific to 598 00:31:25,440 --> 00:31:29,960 Speaker 1: the needs and the physiology of the individual, that one 599 00:31:30,040 --> 00:31:32,440 Speaker 1: hour or ninety minutes a week is one of the 600 00:31:32,440 --> 00:31:35,840 Speaker 1: greatest investments of all time because you know, and I 601 00:31:35,920 --> 00:31:39,160 Speaker 1: know you don't need to. One of the best bodybuilders 602 00:31:39,200 --> 00:31:42,400 Speaker 1: of all time Dorian, Right, Yates, Remember Dorian back in 603 00:31:42,480 --> 00:31:43,240 Speaker 1: the day. 604 00:31:42,960 --> 00:31:45,880 Speaker 2: Well bloody, it's one of the cracking videos. 605 00:31:46,120 --> 00:31:48,360 Speaker 1: Yeah, Dorian was in and out of the gym in 606 00:31:48,440 --> 00:31:51,160 Speaker 1: thirty forty minutes and trained four days a week when 607 00:31:51,200 --> 00:31:54,400 Speaker 1: he was mister Olympia and every other dickhead, every other 608 00:31:54,440 --> 00:31:57,880 Speaker 1: dickhead was doing five hours in the gym seven days 609 00:31:57,880 --> 00:32:01,000 Speaker 1: a week and Dorian's like in there for forty minutes 610 00:32:01,000 --> 00:32:05,120 Speaker 1: and he's having three days a week off. And of course, yeah, 611 00:32:05,120 --> 00:32:07,440 Speaker 1: there's a few supplements along the way, but his actual 612 00:32:07,560 --> 00:32:13,960 Speaker 1: training regime was like really unconventional compared to the masses 613 00:32:14,400 --> 00:32:15,880 Speaker 1: and got amazing results. 614 00:32:16,360 --> 00:32:19,240 Speaker 3: But as you will know, you know, super compensation I 615 00:32:19,240 --> 00:32:21,400 Speaker 3: think they call it and what have you. And you 616 00:32:21,440 --> 00:32:24,360 Speaker 3: know you're trying to you know, micro tears in the 617 00:32:24,440 --> 00:32:27,600 Speaker 3: muscle so that it's stimulated and forced to grow and 618 00:32:28,280 --> 00:32:29,720 Speaker 3: what have you. And if you have a train it 619 00:32:29,800 --> 00:32:31,840 Speaker 3: that can't happen. And that's why a lot of the 620 00:32:31,880 --> 00:32:34,200 Speaker 3: young blokes especially want the big Warwick farms and their 621 00:32:34,240 --> 00:32:37,600 Speaker 3: training every day going backwards. They can't open up can 622 00:32:37,600 --> 00:32:44,560 Speaker 3: of bloody beans, right, So it's it's like it's counterintuity, paradoxical. 623 00:32:44,600 --> 00:32:47,959 Speaker 3: But to get good gains, you've just got to you know, 624 00:32:48,360 --> 00:32:51,760 Speaker 3: hear the muscle on a micro level and you know, 625 00:32:51,840 --> 00:32:54,680 Speaker 3: super compensate and there's your hypertrophy if you eat and 626 00:32:54,880 --> 00:32:58,040 Speaker 3: eat the right foods, calories, get enough sleep. So it's 627 00:32:58,080 --> 00:33:02,680 Speaker 3: critical obviously for hypertrophy and getting enough the right macros 628 00:33:02,720 --> 00:33:04,920 Speaker 3: and whatnot. In the way you go like it's it's 629 00:33:05,240 --> 00:33:07,800 Speaker 3: it's not volume at all. Yates was all over it, 630 00:33:07,840 --> 00:33:10,240 Speaker 3: and you know, it's just that we love training so 631 00:33:10,400 --> 00:33:12,080 Speaker 3: much that we love the feeling, and then we can 632 00:33:12,120 --> 00:33:16,640 Speaker 3: generally overtrain for optimal hyperchaphy, especially fat loss is obviously different, 633 00:33:16,680 --> 00:33:23,480 Speaker 3: but muscle hyperchasey calorie surplus critical. So yeah, that's that's 634 00:33:24,760 --> 00:33:28,640 Speaker 3: very interesting. The thing I was going to say as 635 00:33:28,640 --> 00:33:31,560 Speaker 3: well with the posture, which again I think when you 636 00:33:31,880 --> 00:33:35,960 Speaker 3: have got a muscular developed physke you can't have bad 637 00:33:36,000 --> 00:33:38,080 Speaker 3: posture if you try. I think half the reason people 638 00:33:38,080 --> 00:33:42,040 Speaker 3: have got bad posture is they've got a no muscle development, right, 639 00:33:42,120 --> 00:33:45,360 Speaker 3: so all the stuff I'm talking about, my body works 640 00:33:45,360 --> 00:33:49,760 Speaker 3: better on this, but I'm fairly muscularly developed if you will, 641 00:33:49,800 --> 00:33:52,280 Speaker 3: and like my posture is good, I don't need to 642 00:33:52,320 --> 00:33:55,080 Speaker 3: overcook it. So I think sometimes a lot of the 643 00:33:55,080 --> 00:33:57,280 Speaker 3: stuff I've thought this as well with posture is that 644 00:33:57,320 --> 00:34:00,360 Speaker 3: it's more the reality is that you know, there's just 645 00:34:00,440 --> 00:34:02,760 Speaker 3: not enough muscle on the bones to hold people in 646 00:34:02,800 --> 00:34:03,560 Speaker 3: the right position. 647 00:34:03,760 --> 00:34:03,960 Speaker 2: Right. 648 00:34:04,040 --> 00:34:08,280 Speaker 3: So I've got a thing everyone knows, Tiger Woods and 649 00:34:08,560 --> 00:34:11,839 Speaker 3: the golfer. And there's a picture of him. I took 650 00:34:11,880 --> 00:34:13,840 Speaker 3: the picture, but he has when he was in nineteen 651 00:34:13,880 --> 00:34:16,319 Speaker 3: ninety seven. He hits a shot, but it's a hole 652 00:34:16,360 --> 00:34:19,279 Speaker 3: in one. It goes in the bloody hole. This is 653 00:34:19,520 --> 00:34:22,399 Speaker 3: whatever tournament it was. And his posture over the golf ball, 654 00:34:23,040 --> 00:34:26,960 Speaker 3: he's a lot more. He lets go more against gravity. 655 00:34:27,000 --> 00:34:30,040 Speaker 3: He can see the subtle curvature in his thoracic spine 656 00:34:30,120 --> 00:34:32,520 Speaker 3: versus what most people do today. 657 00:34:32,600 --> 00:34:34,600 Speaker 2: And a lot of the top top world. 658 00:34:34,440 --> 00:34:36,719 Speaker 3: Champion golfers were like this when they were younger, and 659 00:34:36,719 --> 00:34:40,719 Speaker 3: they were corrected by inverted commas the best coaches, and 660 00:34:40,760 --> 00:34:44,240 Speaker 3: I believe to their detriment both in performance and injury 661 00:34:44,320 --> 00:34:47,279 Speaker 3: prevention and what have you, due to the sort of 662 00:34:48,000 --> 00:34:50,480 Speaker 3: stress on the lower back. And that's a classic example 663 00:34:50,480 --> 00:34:53,640 Speaker 3: of a bloke who that shot, that particular shot went 664 00:34:53,680 --> 00:34:56,520 Speaker 3: in the hole, one bounce in the hole. But it 665 00:34:56,320 --> 00:34:59,359 Speaker 3: was once you see it, you can't undersee it because 666 00:34:59,360 --> 00:35:02,400 Speaker 3: it just peaks you over the ball better and you 667 00:35:02,440 --> 00:35:04,600 Speaker 3: can press squash the ball better and you stay out 668 00:35:04,800 --> 00:35:07,200 Speaker 3: all these things and you lower back doesn't hurt, and 669 00:35:07,239 --> 00:35:10,040 Speaker 3: it's all these things that I've sort of worked out 670 00:35:10,040 --> 00:35:12,800 Speaker 3: and looking at other top you know, Rory mclroy Adams 671 00:35:12,840 --> 00:35:15,319 Speaker 3: got all these players who were great world champions but 672 00:35:15,920 --> 00:35:18,440 Speaker 3: were arguably better when they were seventeen before they were 673 00:35:18,520 --> 00:35:22,840 Speaker 3: changed in so many ways, and it's almost manufactured again 674 00:35:22,920 --> 00:35:25,759 Speaker 3: through what sports science seemed to be correct. But you know, 675 00:35:25,800 --> 00:35:28,680 Speaker 3: it's really interesting, mate, It's a whole other world. But 676 00:35:28,760 --> 00:35:32,320 Speaker 3: the posture thing, I'm fascinated as well. We'd like the 677 00:35:32,400 --> 00:35:35,480 Speaker 3: neuroscience and what you do and anxiety. Everyone's got anxiety 678 00:35:35,480 --> 00:35:38,319 Speaker 3: and stress. But if you're breathing into your chest all 679 00:35:38,320 --> 00:35:41,239 Speaker 3: the time, shallow chest, breathing upright, bolt upright, tall, well 680 00:35:41,239 --> 00:35:45,080 Speaker 3: you can't not have anxiety stress. So yeah, combine that 681 00:35:45,120 --> 00:35:48,000 Speaker 3: within your head thinking about what might happen, you're gone 682 00:35:48,360 --> 00:35:49,320 Speaker 3: like it's horrible. 683 00:35:50,000 --> 00:35:52,480 Speaker 1: Well, you know what's funny as you were talking about, 684 00:35:53,600 --> 00:35:57,799 Speaker 1: you know, the way that people get trained to you know, 685 00:35:57,960 --> 00:36:01,319 Speaker 1: however you're standing it's wrong, stand like that, don't sit 686 00:36:01,520 --> 00:36:04,360 Speaker 1: like that, right and look sometimes that is true, sometimes 687 00:36:04,400 --> 00:36:08,720 Speaker 1: that is accurate, you know. But I was thinking about 688 00:36:09,400 --> 00:36:12,839 Speaker 1: the amount of people in the gym who have what 689 00:36:12,880 --> 00:36:18,640 Speaker 1: we colloquially call tennis elbow or what we more accurately 690 00:36:18,760 --> 00:36:22,319 Speaker 1: know as lateral epicond. The lightis but basically inflammation in 691 00:36:22,360 --> 00:36:26,080 Speaker 1: the outside of your elbow golfer's elbow side media epicond. 692 00:36:26,080 --> 00:36:28,600 Speaker 1: The lightis blah blah blah. Right, But I was thinking 693 00:36:28,600 --> 00:36:34,279 Speaker 1: about Tiff, who does some who works with me on 694 00:36:34,320 --> 00:36:39,080 Speaker 1: this show. She's she was telling me the other day about, 695 00:36:39,560 --> 00:36:43,320 Speaker 1: you know, this pain she's got outside of her elbow, 696 00:36:43,520 --> 00:36:47,359 Speaker 1: which we would call tennis elbow, and I said, when 697 00:36:47,400 --> 00:36:49,520 Speaker 1: does it hurt? And she goes, when I do curls right, 698 00:36:49,600 --> 00:36:52,640 Speaker 1: And I said, well, think about this, like when you 699 00:36:52,719 --> 00:36:56,320 Speaker 1: stand up, like if everyone just stood up now, if 700 00:36:56,360 --> 00:36:58,760 Speaker 1: you can stand up, just stand up and just relax 701 00:36:58,800 --> 00:36:59,960 Speaker 1: and see where your hands are. 702 00:37:00,800 --> 00:37:00,960 Speaker 2: Now. 703 00:37:01,000 --> 00:37:03,960 Speaker 1: Where your hands are is usually with the palms facing 704 00:37:04,080 --> 00:37:08,120 Speaker 1: either your hips or the back, you know, like your 705 00:37:08,160 --> 00:37:12,040 Speaker 1: palms aren't forward right, So in order to get your 706 00:37:12,239 --> 00:37:14,680 Speaker 1: arm standing up now, but in order to get your 707 00:37:14,719 --> 00:37:19,440 Speaker 1: palms here, you've literally got to like rotate your forearms. 708 00:37:20,560 --> 00:37:23,319 Speaker 1: And so we're now standing in an unnatural position. And 709 00:37:23,360 --> 00:37:26,040 Speaker 1: then we put sixty pounds or whatever in our hands, 710 00:37:26,719 --> 00:37:29,560 Speaker 1: and then we do this movement up this elbow flexion 711 00:37:29,600 --> 00:37:31,680 Speaker 1: and elbow extension, and we go to the bottom of 712 00:37:31,719 --> 00:37:34,880 Speaker 1: this movement. Now we're standing with our palms facing forward, 713 00:37:35,160 --> 00:37:37,960 Speaker 1: which we never do. And now not only are we 714 00:37:38,040 --> 00:37:42,439 Speaker 1: doing this weird movement, we've got that underload, right, which 715 00:37:42,480 --> 00:37:44,720 Speaker 1: is why you know, and there are so many things 716 00:37:44,719 --> 00:37:46,920 Speaker 1: that we do in the gym that are not normal 717 00:37:47,040 --> 00:37:50,280 Speaker 1: day to day movements, or we're not in the normal 718 00:37:50,360 --> 00:37:54,160 Speaker 1: plane of movement, or we're not how our we're externally 719 00:37:54,280 --> 00:37:57,279 Speaker 1: or internally rotated in a weird way, and then we 720 00:37:57,560 --> 00:38:01,840 Speaker 1: loaded up with weights. So then the easy fix for 721 00:38:01,920 --> 00:38:05,239 Speaker 1: that is do hammer curls or do curls with your 722 00:38:05,880 --> 00:38:09,239 Speaker 1: palms facing your midline, you know, is facing your spine, 723 00:38:09,440 --> 00:38:11,960 Speaker 1: so instead of curling like that. And you can see 724 00:38:11,960 --> 00:38:15,479 Speaker 1: we're curling like that as you know, right. But there's 725 00:38:16,680 --> 00:38:18,839 Speaker 1: there are a lot of things that are that are 726 00:38:18,880 --> 00:38:22,920 Speaker 1: taught in gyms, and I guess involf and horse riding 727 00:38:23,719 --> 00:38:28,480 Speaker 1: that actually absolutely under scrutiny. Don't stand up. 728 00:38:29,400 --> 00:38:31,960 Speaker 3: That's a very good point and that's what I've been 729 00:38:32,000 --> 00:38:34,640 Speaker 3: working on in the golf space especially and with it. 730 00:38:34,760 --> 00:38:36,960 Speaker 3: I'm lucky I've played a lot of junior golf and 731 00:38:37,080 --> 00:38:39,520 Speaker 3: was played on my life and one of my junior 732 00:38:39,520 --> 00:38:42,560 Speaker 3: golf buddies golf pro at my club. Actually it turns 733 00:38:42,600 --> 00:38:47,040 Speaker 3: out and really humble guy and sort of not full 734 00:38:47,080 --> 00:38:49,399 Speaker 3: of ego and like, oh no, that's wrong, blah blah. 735 00:38:49,440 --> 00:38:52,719 Speaker 3: But funnily enough, did like four unit maths and quite 736 00:38:53,320 --> 00:38:57,960 Speaker 3: intellectually bright, so he understands physics and things. So it's 737 00:38:57,960 --> 00:39:01,320 Speaker 3: fascinated him and work out a few bits and pieces 738 00:39:01,360 --> 00:39:05,560 Speaker 3: and just looking at it in terms of more physics 739 00:39:05,600 --> 00:39:09,120 Speaker 3: gravity momentum forces than are a mass instead of just 740 00:39:09,120 --> 00:39:12,360 Speaker 3: what everyone does. Yeah, one hundred thousand lemons can't be 741 00:39:12,360 --> 00:39:14,080 Speaker 3: wrong because and getting back to the point of what 742 00:39:14,120 --> 00:39:16,680 Speaker 3: got me onto this. You're gonna laugh. I think you 743 00:39:16,840 --> 00:39:18,800 Speaker 3: might bust a riby on this one, so you know, 744 00:39:19,120 --> 00:39:19,799 Speaker 3: just giving you some. 745 00:39:20,360 --> 00:39:23,759 Speaker 1: Let me put let me type up this tape up. 746 00:39:23,680 --> 00:39:27,040 Speaker 3: Please, but like, okay, no offense to all the golfers. 747 00:39:27,040 --> 00:39:29,959 Speaker 3: But here's the reality, right The golf ball doesn't fucking move. 748 00:39:30,600 --> 00:39:33,279 Speaker 3: It's on the ground and it's stationary. We're not hitting 749 00:39:33,320 --> 00:39:35,560 Speaker 3: baseballs at one hundred miles an hour. It's not cricket 750 00:39:36,480 --> 00:39:39,640 Speaker 3: with glenmorgrab banging them down a warning God rest he 751 00:39:39,719 --> 00:39:43,080 Speaker 3: solid he's primate and bloody, all sorts of crazy balls 752 00:39:43,080 --> 00:39:45,319 Speaker 3: that he used to write. The ball doesn't move, but 753 00:39:45,360 --> 00:39:50,360 Speaker 3: everyone's shit. My brain cannot let that go. The ball 754 00:39:50,480 --> 00:39:53,759 Speaker 3: doesn't move, gravity doesn't change, right, the club is the 755 00:39:53,800 --> 00:39:57,399 Speaker 3: same weight and length, and your body doesn't change all 756 00:39:57,440 --> 00:40:00,279 Speaker 3: of There are no external variables, so it's you can 757 00:40:00,360 --> 00:40:03,200 Speaker 3: understand the variables the swing coade if you will, of 758 00:40:03,320 --> 00:40:05,919 Speaker 3: your body, because the flipping ball's not moving. You can't. 759 00:40:05,960 --> 00:40:08,480 Speaker 3: You should not be that shit. So about four years 760 00:40:08,480 --> 00:40:11,040 Speaker 3: ago and go to any driving range. I won't even 761 00:40:11,320 --> 00:40:14,920 Speaker 3: say what they say because you know, too many beeps, 762 00:40:14,960 --> 00:40:19,279 Speaker 3: but like it is, just blokes are just headless of 763 00:40:19,360 --> 00:40:21,799 Speaker 3: themselves that they just can't hit it and they just 764 00:40:21,840 --> 00:40:24,840 Speaker 3: blow up and they're just filthy on themselves. And it 765 00:40:24,840 --> 00:40:27,759 Speaker 3: should the thing that you know, I just couldn't put down, 766 00:40:27,800 --> 00:40:29,919 Speaker 3: was it. It shouldn't be that hard because the thing's 767 00:40:29,960 --> 00:40:33,000 Speaker 3: not moving now, so that you don't need brilliant hand 768 00:40:33,040 --> 00:40:36,120 Speaker 3: like coordination because you're not hitting a moving target. And 769 00:40:36,320 --> 00:40:38,719 Speaker 3: here's another little I know was sort of into the 770 00:40:38,719 --> 00:40:41,360 Speaker 3: sports science performance world today, but we've done a million 771 00:40:41,400 --> 00:40:43,240 Speaker 3: on other. 772 00:40:43,080 --> 00:40:45,320 Speaker 2: Things, so it's probably good to have a little pivot anyway, 773 00:40:45,480 --> 00:40:50,320 Speaker 2: Prague Anthony. But what I here's another thing I remember. 774 00:40:50,680 --> 00:40:53,319 Speaker 3: I remember going on dates and whatnot back in my 775 00:40:53,520 --> 00:40:58,400 Speaker 3: early late teens early twenties, like tenpin bowling. I was 776 00:40:58,440 --> 00:41:02,480 Speaker 3: the shittest tenpin bowl the world's ever seen. Like, you 777 00:41:02,520 --> 00:41:04,560 Speaker 3: can't if you think you're shit listening to this, you're 778 00:41:04,600 --> 00:41:04,959 Speaker 3: not shit. 779 00:41:05,320 --> 00:41:08,839 Speaker 2: I was that shit, right, just shit harder. I tried 780 00:41:08,880 --> 00:41:09,200 Speaker 2: the worse. 781 00:41:09,239 --> 00:41:12,480 Speaker 3: I was like, you need the bumpers up everything for me, 782 00:41:12,520 --> 00:41:14,680 Speaker 3: and I still might hag it down another few hours. 783 00:41:14,680 --> 00:41:18,400 Speaker 3: Like I was just shitouse And so there was that 784 00:41:18,520 --> 00:41:24,800 Speaker 3: factor and darts free throws shit. Then I thought, hang on, okay, 785 00:41:24,920 --> 00:41:26,759 Speaker 3: what if this posture I'm talking. 786 00:41:26,440 --> 00:41:28,560 Speaker 2: About, you know you've got if you look at. 787 00:41:30,520 --> 00:41:33,720 Speaker 3: Like I can remember distinctly people, you know, lazy type 788 00:41:33,760 --> 00:41:38,600 Speaker 3: people who were just weapons at tenpin bowling, darts, these 789 00:41:38,640 --> 00:41:41,319 Speaker 3: sorts of things because they've dropped the center of mass. 790 00:41:41,320 --> 00:41:44,200 Speaker 3: It's this posture I'm talking about, and I believe it 791 00:41:44,280 --> 00:41:48,040 Speaker 3: enhances the hand eye piece or just your body awareness, 792 00:41:48,200 --> 00:41:53,440 Speaker 3: the whole biomechanics. The feel is different in this postural 793 00:41:53,480 --> 00:41:58,480 Speaker 3: engagement piece. So the yeah, the like for me, tenpin bowling, darts, 794 00:41:59,120 --> 00:42:04,880 Speaker 3: free throws horribly shit, right, And I think there's a 795 00:42:04,880 --> 00:42:07,239 Speaker 3: whole heap of merit in that, and people who are 796 00:42:07,239 --> 00:42:10,640 Speaker 3: listening to these you might think, shit, my mate, Barry, 797 00:42:11,600 --> 00:42:14,160 Speaker 3: Barry's never been to the gymmy as twenty schooners a night. 798 00:42:14,200 --> 00:42:17,520 Speaker 3: The blokes could be professional dark player. He's carrying probably 799 00:42:17,560 --> 00:42:19,960 Speaker 3: thirty or forty kegs extra and the bloke's an absolute 800 00:42:20,000 --> 00:42:24,080 Speaker 3: weapon at darts, tempin, bowling, whatever, because of this posture 801 00:42:24,120 --> 00:42:27,080 Speaker 3: that this person's got because they're just a bit lazy, right, 802 00:42:27,120 --> 00:42:30,120 Speaker 3: But then we overcook the posture, we overcooked the tension, 803 00:42:30,120 --> 00:42:33,840 Speaker 3: and we don't have that what inverted Comma's natural ability? 804 00:42:33,880 --> 00:42:36,560 Speaker 3: And that leads me to another point around we think 805 00:42:36,600 --> 00:42:39,080 Speaker 3: people have got these natural gifts and ability, what if 806 00:42:39,080 --> 00:42:41,440 Speaker 3: they just got lucky with the posture that they adopted, 807 00:42:41,440 --> 00:42:44,480 Speaker 3: which lended itself more to the sport that they chose. 808 00:42:45,120 --> 00:42:47,000 Speaker 3: And I believe that's a lot more of the case 809 00:42:47,440 --> 00:42:50,640 Speaker 3: than people being naturally gifted, especially with a non moving target, 810 00:42:50,680 --> 00:42:53,719 Speaker 3: for God's sake, and watching major tournaments and the best 811 00:42:53,719 --> 00:42:55,680 Speaker 3: golfers in the world a road hooking at left off 812 00:42:55,680 --> 00:42:58,000 Speaker 3: the first t to the point that I googled the 813 00:42:58,000 --> 00:43:00,480 Speaker 3: golf course to see if there was an ocean on 814 00:43:00,560 --> 00:43:02,800 Speaker 3: the right. Because I'm thinking, these are the best golfers 815 00:43:02,800 --> 00:43:04,239 Speaker 3: in the world, and this now booking it off the 816 00:43:04,239 --> 00:43:06,719 Speaker 3: first like, this is not that doesn't add up to me. 817 00:43:06,800 --> 00:43:08,960 Speaker 3: My brain's like, hang on, this isn't like the local 818 00:43:09,000 --> 00:43:11,440 Speaker 3: club champs. But these are the best golfers in the 819 00:43:11,480 --> 00:43:13,399 Speaker 3: world and they're almost putting it out of bounds off 820 00:43:13,840 --> 00:43:16,640 Speaker 3: te box one. So again, and then by that point 821 00:43:16,719 --> 00:43:20,680 Speaker 3: I'd worked out things about the posture. So mate, welcome 822 00:43:20,719 --> 00:43:21,360 Speaker 3: to my mind. 823 00:43:21,520 --> 00:43:24,680 Speaker 2: Harps. Have you have you. 824 00:43:24,680 --> 00:43:26,759 Speaker 1: Ever heard have you ever heard of a guy called 825 00:43:26,880 --> 00:43:31,000 Speaker 1: Luke Littler l I double T L E R. No, 826 00:43:31,719 --> 00:43:32,800 Speaker 1: you're not near a computer. 827 00:43:32,840 --> 00:43:35,279 Speaker 2: You only have your phone, right, Yeah, but I will 828 00:43:35,320 --> 00:43:36,040 Speaker 2: google him later. 829 00:43:36,320 --> 00:43:39,520 Speaker 1: Yeah. So Luke Littler, God bless him is. He is 830 00:43:39,920 --> 00:43:44,000 Speaker 1: an absolute phenom in darts. 831 00:43:44,440 --> 00:43:44,640 Speaker 3: Now. 832 00:43:45,480 --> 00:43:48,799 Speaker 1: If you look at Luke, Luke looks like and I 833 00:43:48,880 --> 00:43:51,040 Speaker 1: mean this with respect, like he's a big boy. He 834 00:43:51,080 --> 00:43:55,120 Speaker 1: does not look like by the way, he's fucking brilliant. Right. 835 00:43:56,320 --> 00:43:59,920 Speaker 1: He started winning like big titles when he was sick. 836 00:44:00,480 --> 00:44:04,480 Speaker 1: He's seventeen years old. Now he's a big boy. We 837 00:44:04,480 --> 00:44:07,640 Speaker 1: would say he's not fit. He probably doesn't have a 838 00:44:07,640 --> 00:44:12,000 Speaker 1: great diet, and he just does not look like an 839 00:44:12,080 --> 00:44:20,200 Speaker 1: athlete at all. But darts, of course, incredible hand eye coordinations, skill, dexterity, 840 00:44:20,239 --> 00:44:25,080 Speaker 1: balanced timing, fucking eyes whatever I mean it is. I 841 00:44:25,120 --> 00:44:27,600 Speaker 1: wouldn't call it athletic, but it's definitely. 842 00:44:27,239 --> 00:44:32,640 Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, it's a game of skill. It requires precision repetition, yes. 843 00:44:32,560 --> 00:44:36,080 Speaker 1: One hundred and he's amazing. He's amazing, and it kind 844 00:44:36,080 --> 00:44:40,360 Speaker 1: of supports your theory, you know, whereas he does not 845 00:44:40,560 --> 00:44:44,480 Speaker 1: at all look like an athlete. He looked by the way, 846 00:44:44,520 --> 00:44:46,880 Speaker 1: it looks like he's thirty years old. He's got stubble. 847 00:44:48,040 --> 00:44:50,839 Speaker 3: But what you touched on there is exactly what I'm 848 00:44:51,080 --> 00:44:56,160 Speaker 3: I absolutely believe. I'm glad we actually somehow came onto 849 00:44:56,200 --> 00:45:00,000 Speaker 3: this topic today because we were talking. You mentioned that 850 00:45:00,120 --> 00:45:02,840 Speaker 3: post about anxiety, which I'm glad you did because that 851 00:45:03,160 --> 00:45:08,160 Speaker 3: was the starting point regarding parasympathetic belly breathing diaphragmatic which 852 00:45:08,320 --> 00:45:12,080 Speaker 3: is optimized and you know that it forces you to 853 00:45:12,080 --> 00:45:14,000 Speaker 3: do that when you let go against gravity and the 854 00:45:14,000 --> 00:45:19,160 Speaker 3: sternam drops. But that also helps neurologically physiologically with anxiety, 855 00:45:19,200 --> 00:45:23,800 Speaker 3: stress and whatnot, but also sports performance and these types 856 00:45:23,800 --> 00:45:25,440 Speaker 3: of people I've got a client of mine. Right, he's 857 00:45:25,440 --> 00:45:28,880 Speaker 3: commercial real estate. He's not a bloody professional athlete. But 858 00:45:28,920 --> 00:45:32,680 Speaker 3: he started playing just like basketball Monday nights, and you know, 859 00:45:32,960 --> 00:45:36,080 Speaker 3: sometimes we had about all sorts of things, and I 860 00:45:36,160 --> 00:45:39,160 Speaker 3: told him to try this, mate, he might be I 861 00:45:39,160 --> 00:45:43,920 Speaker 3: don't think he's missed a free throw in competition since once. 862 00:45:43,960 --> 00:45:46,000 Speaker 3: He just did what we're talking about here. He goes, 863 00:45:46,040 --> 00:45:48,080 Speaker 3: you dead set onto something here like this is like 864 00:45:49,040 --> 00:45:52,560 Speaker 3: it changes the mechanics. If you will, your center of 865 00:45:52,640 --> 00:45:55,439 Speaker 3: mass drops, You've got more feel. I think what it does, 866 00:45:55,680 --> 00:45:59,480 Speaker 3: he says, that isolates the variables, like there's not as 867 00:45:59,560 --> 00:46:02,359 Speaker 3: many moves in parts when you're up taller, sorry, when 868 00:46:02,400 --> 00:46:05,480 Speaker 3: you dropped down and it's just sort of the arm 869 00:46:05,600 --> 00:46:09,759 Speaker 3: piece and it's not everything. Sort of you're more dynamically 870 00:46:09,800 --> 00:46:13,399 Speaker 3: stable when you've dropped. And Paul Batman album mate dot 871 00:46:14,239 --> 00:46:16,840 Speaker 3: PhD in exercise science, I running through all this and 872 00:46:16,880 --> 00:46:19,080 Speaker 3: he's like, mate, I think you're actually right. I think 873 00:46:19,120 --> 00:46:21,719 Speaker 3: we overcooked it. I think with all this stuff you 874 00:46:21,760 --> 00:46:25,440 Speaker 3: know in sports science. And we chat away a bit 875 00:46:25,480 --> 00:46:29,600 Speaker 3: and he said, you know what with Obviously Daniel's son 876 00:46:29,719 --> 00:46:32,279 Speaker 3: tragically passed away, but Daniel was an olympic. He went 877 00:46:32,320 --> 00:46:34,359 Speaker 3: to the Olympics for Australia, one of the best four 878 00:46:34,440 --> 00:46:38,040 Speaker 3: hundred meter runners Australia's ever had, and Paul said to me, 879 00:46:38,120 --> 00:46:41,239 Speaker 3: he said, you know what, with sprinting, they actually teach 880 00:46:41,280 --> 00:46:44,279 Speaker 3: you to get down low, like you drop your sternham 881 00:46:44,320 --> 00:46:47,480 Speaker 3: And I was never, ladies and gentlemen that good at sprinting, 882 00:46:47,480 --> 00:46:50,000 Speaker 3: rest assured, But I have had a few cracks out 883 00:46:50,000 --> 00:46:52,440 Speaker 3: at doing this. Then tell you what there might have 884 00:46:52,440 --> 00:46:56,360 Speaker 3: to be a comeback to because I'm lightning, absolutely lightning. 885 00:46:58,560 --> 00:47:01,239 Speaker 2: You use the ground more, you agree with the action 886 00:47:01,480 --> 00:47:05,320 Speaker 2: forces are massively enhanced and you just push the glots everything. 887 00:47:05,680 --> 00:47:07,839 Speaker 1: So well, if you see, if you see, you sayin 888 00:47:07,960 --> 00:47:12,799 Speaker 1: bolt over the first forty meters, he's looking at the ground, Yes, yeah, yeah, 889 00:47:14,400 --> 00:47:21,359 Speaker 1: he's literally in significant you know, pelvic flexion. Yes, and 890 00:47:21,560 --> 00:47:25,960 Speaker 1: he's hunched over. He starts to stand more upright, and 891 00:47:26,120 --> 00:47:29,080 Speaker 1: I mean maybe it's not forty meters, but it's definitely 892 00:47:29,080 --> 00:47:33,080 Speaker 1: twenty or thirty meters. Well, he's hunched over, he's running 893 00:47:33,200 --> 00:47:36,560 Speaker 1: in yes, almost a prone position. 894 00:47:36,760 --> 00:47:40,920 Speaker 3: Yes, yes, yeshaps it's really I'm so glad we touched 895 00:47:40,920 --> 00:47:42,680 Speaker 3: on this. I'd love to unpack it, you know, in 896 00:47:42,920 --> 00:47:46,200 Speaker 3: future you know, episodes if people are interested, because I 897 00:47:46,200 --> 00:47:50,400 Speaker 3: think there's a big like a few things have been missed, 898 00:47:50,520 --> 00:47:53,040 Speaker 3: you know, by you know, when we're the most guilty 899 00:47:53,080 --> 00:47:55,960 Speaker 3: is judge, we've got the bloody degrees, like and it's 900 00:47:56,000 --> 00:47:59,439 Speaker 3: just really looking at where things you know, originated from 901 00:47:59,480 --> 00:48:01,279 Speaker 3: and what. And I think a lot of this with 902 00:48:01,360 --> 00:48:04,200 Speaker 3: posture is everybody knows if you don't round your back 903 00:48:04,239 --> 00:48:06,120 Speaker 3: when you pick something up, because you'll hurt. You're like, 904 00:48:06,160 --> 00:48:07,759 Speaker 3: you know, all that got it, but then we took 905 00:48:07,760 --> 00:48:10,080 Speaker 3: it too far the other way. We hollowed the shit 906 00:48:10,160 --> 00:48:12,719 Speaker 3: out of it, and we were bolt upright right, so 907 00:48:12,880 --> 00:48:15,719 Speaker 3: you split the difference. And the spine is a wonderful thing, 908 00:48:15,800 --> 00:48:17,799 Speaker 3: Like it's like a snake. And also because of the 909 00:48:17,800 --> 00:48:20,960 Speaker 3: way the human spine is, you know, it's actually can 910 00:48:21,000 --> 00:48:25,000 Speaker 3: be put into so many different subtle variations that under 911 00:48:25,080 --> 00:48:28,359 Speaker 3: clothes and different body composition and aesthetics is very hard 912 00:48:28,360 --> 00:48:31,239 Speaker 3: to detect, especially up in the thoracic and you know, 913 00:48:31,280 --> 00:48:35,600 Speaker 3: but with the breathing for me, like it's a game 914 00:48:35,680 --> 00:48:37,640 Speaker 3: changer because when you're up in your chest you can 915 00:48:37,680 --> 00:48:40,000 Speaker 3: get really rattled and anxious, and when you're in your belly, 916 00:48:40,000 --> 00:48:42,239 Speaker 3: you're good as gold, and that obviously affects sports, but 917 00:48:42,719 --> 00:48:45,040 Speaker 3: just mental well being for God's sake, to get rid 918 00:48:45,040 --> 00:48:47,040 Speaker 3: of the bloody anxiety that plagues everyone. 919 00:48:47,719 --> 00:48:50,200 Speaker 1: Yeah, well, you know, I was just thinking then when 920 00:48:50,280 --> 00:48:53,080 Speaker 1: you're talking about picking something up off the floor, right, 921 00:48:53,840 --> 00:48:58,440 Speaker 1: and it's like, okay, you know, activate your TVA transverse 922 00:48:58,520 --> 00:49:01,680 Speaker 1: subdominance like into it. Like it's almost like you get 923 00:49:01,680 --> 00:49:05,680 Speaker 1: into this weird position that you're never in right now. 924 00:49:05,800 --> 00:49:08,799 Speaker 1: While you're in that weird position that's not usual or 925 00:49:08,840 --> 00:49:13,040 Speaker 1: normal for you pick some shit up. It's like, you know, 926 00:49:13,760 --> 00:49:16,120 Speaker 1: and I mean, of course, like activating your core and 927 00:49:16,160 --> 00:49:18,279 Speaker 1: all of that. Of course not a bad thing, of course, 928 00:49:18,320 --> 00:49:21,640 Speaker 1: but yeah, I think it is. It is funny that 929 00:49:21,800 --> 00:49:26,440 Speaker 1: there's a lot of stuff, especially in in exercise science, 930 00:49:26,480 --> 00:49:28,919 Speaker 1: that like you and I, you and I both got 931 00:49:28,960 --> 00:49:31,440 Speaker 1: taught at some stage, well I did, I'm sure you did, 932 00:49:31,480 --> 00:49:34,920 Speaker 1: and a lot of our listeners are. Okay, So power 933 00:49:35,040 --> 00:49:38,800 Speaker 1: is two to four reps. Strength is four to eight reps, 934 00:49:38,520 --> 00:49:43,239 Speaker 1: eight to fifteen reps. Anything above fifteen reps is muscular 935 00:49:43,320 --> 00:49:46,520 Speaker 1: endurance and what a lot of fucking bullshit, Like think 936 00:49:46,560 --> 00:49:51,400 Speaker 1: about Olympic cyclists who do thousands of fucking reps and 937 00:49:51,440 --> 00:49:54,759 Speaker 1: they've got the biggest quads in the world, you know 938 00:49:54,800 --> 00:49:58,080 Speaker 1: what I mean, thousands of thousands of reps of the 939 00:49:58,160 --> 00:50:01,959 Speaker 1: same way. Think about Olympic swimmers who are just doing 940 00:50:02,040 --> 00:50:06,480 Speaker 1: basically the same movement countless times with the same body 941 00:50:06,920 --> 00:50:10,319 Speaker 1: and the same resistance through the water depending on how 942 00:50:10,360 --> 00:50:13,719 Speaker 1: fast they're going or what stroke they're doing. But who 943 00:50:13,719 --> 00:50:16,920 Speaker 1: have got these giant fucking shoulders and backs. You know, 944 00:50:17,080 --> 00:50:22,480 Speaker 1: Like there's so much that is held as kind of gospel. 945 00:50:22,760 --> 00:50:25,000 Speaker 2: I'm scientific in stone. 946 00:50:25,320 --> 00:50:27,920 Speaker 1: Yeah, it's it's like it's complete bullshit. 947 00:50:28,000 --> 00:50:30,160 Speaker 2: You one more thing I want you to sorry interrupt, 948 00:50:30,160 --> 00:50:30,720 Speaker 2: I get excited. 949 00:50:30,719 --> 00:50:32,080 Speaker 1: I'm ready, I'm ready. One more. 950 00:50:32,200 --> 00:50:36,600 Speaker 3: One more thing, Like next, I know you're a deadlifting spleened. 951 00:50:37,680 --> 00:50:41,400 Speaker 2: At your local Jimmy. Like, so next time you're deadlifting, 952 00:50:41,400 --> 00:50:43,359 Speaker 2: probably in the night, you'll be there. You love it. 953 00:50:43,640 --> 00:50:47,480 Speaker 3: But next time you're deadlifting, right, try this because now 954 00:50:47,920 --> 00:50:50,960 Speaker 3: once you're aware of it, you have these profound realizations. 955 00:50:51,000 --> 00:50:53,799 Speaker 3: You go to deadlift. Everyone talks about core and core 956 00:50:53,880 --> 00:50:58,480 Speaker 3: engagement and activation. I'm certain it's involuntary when the posture 957 00:50:58,520 --> 00:51:01,280 Speaker 3: is correct. It's not in a girl quantum physics, string 958 00:51:01,360 --> 00:51:03,960 Speaker 3: theory folks, all, but that it's been turned into that 959 00:51:04,000 --> 00:51:04,719 Speaker 3: for Fox's sake. 960 00:51:05,120 --> 00:51:06,439 Speaker 2: Same with the bloody Gulf swing. 961 00:51:06,560 --> 00:51:09,480 Speaker 3: Like everyone's treating the effects during the swing, which is 962 00:51:09,520 --> 00:51:13,120 Speaker 3: mission impossible dot com versus like getting it right with 963 00:51:13,239 --> 00:51:16,319 Speaker 3: posturally and the pressure and then it's automatic. So but 964 00:51:16,360 --> 00:51:20,080 Speaker 3: with a dead lift, when you go, when you like 965 00:51:20,120 --> 00:51:22,400 Speaker 3: getting up off the bed, when you go to actually 966 00:51:22,440 --> 00:51:24,160 Speaker 3: lift the weight, you get down to the bar, you 967 00:51:24,160 --> 00:51:27,160 Speaker 3: go to lift that up, you have this little inhale 968 00:51:27,440 --> 00:51:32,839 Speaker 3: the balloon core infra adominal pressure and your core goes, 969 00:51:33,360 --> 00:51:39,040 Speaker 3: it engages, but you're not flexing your core. It's intra 970 00:51:39,160 --> 00:51:43,239 Speaker 3: abdominal internal pressure that the muscles can then brace against 971 00:51:43,880 --> 00:51:48,359 Speaker 3: versus an empty void and just a telegraph pole and 972 00:51:48,400 --> 00:51:51,200 Speaker 3: then but that's what we do when we're deadlift. We're 973 00:51:51,239 --> 00:51:54,879 Speaker 3: not excessively hollowing our lumber back to our detriment because 974 00:51:54,880 --> 00:51:57,000 Speaker 3: the erect of spine muscles are like not taking a 975 00:51:57,080 --> 00:52:00,880 Speaker 3: knife to a gunfight. No, it's that pressure in torso 976 00:52:01,000 --> 00:52:05,840 Speaker 3: box trunk up with obviously the lumber spine that spinal erectors. 977 00:52:05,880 --> 00:52:08,319 Speaker 3: But the intra abdominal pressure is so big. That's what 978 00:52:08,360 --> 00:52:10,160 Speaker 3: we do, but we don't realize it. Now me back 979 00:52:10,440 --> 00:52:13,800 Speaker 3: as a personal trainer. Oh, it's distinctly remembered Tea teaching 980 00:52:13,840 --> 00:52:16,080 Speaker 3: the squat, right, this is it's not funny, but it 981 00:52:16,160 --> 00:52:17,799 Speaker 3: was so wrong when I look back to it. 982 00:52:17,760 --> 00:52:21,239 Speaker 2: It's not funny, but it just wasn't what I thought 983 00:52:21,239 --> 00:52:21,719 Speaker 2: I was doing. 984 00:52:21,760 --> 00:52:25,160 Speaker 3: So someone you're teach him how to squat rite chest out, 985 00:52:25,200 --> 00:52:27,680 Speaker 3: shoulders back, you know, chest out.
