Yeah, probably not as organized. 60 00:03:08,440 --> 00:03:11,040 Speaker 2: And then yeah, as we grow up, it sort of 61 00:03:11,080 --> 00:03:13,960 Speaker 2: just evolved into the Bra Boys and we all got 62 00:03:14,000 --> 00:03:16,560 Speaker 2: the tatters and got in a bit of trouble here 63 00:03:16,560 --> 00:03:17,000 Speaker 2: and there. 64 00:03:17,080 --> 00:03:21,239 Speaker 1: But what was the saying was my brother's keeper or 65 00:03:21,280 --> 00:03:23,240 Speaker 1: something like that? As I recall, I mean, there's been 66 00:03:23,240 --> 00:03:25,400 Speaker 1: a lot of documentaries on this, and you know, of course, 67 00:03:26,520 --> 00:03:29,360 Speaker 1: lots of discussions about a couple of the dudes in 68 00:03:29,400 --> 00:03:33,880 Speaker 1: the in the group, I won't say gang, but the group, 69 00:03:34,600 --> 00:03:37,680 Speaker 1: and some got themselves into trouble and there was some few, 70 00:03:38,760 --> 00:03:41,040 Speaker 1: let's call it.

Yeah, and so yeah, 133 00:07:02,200 --> 00:07:05,200 Speaker 2: that's where it all eventuated from, and then it just 134 00:07:05,320 --> 00:07:08,839 Speaker 2: grew from there. Yeah. We used to like talking about 135 00:07:08,880 --> 00:07:12,000 Speaker 2: the police fight that was one of my mates twenty 136 00:07:12,080 --> 00:07:16,600 Speaker 2: first that was Yeah, that was a shocker, like for 137 00:07:16,760 --> 00:07:19,680 Speaker 2: both Yeah, Like looking back on it now, like it 138 00:07:19,840 --> 00:07:21,600 Speaker 2: was just an all in brawl and it was a 139 00:07:21,640 --> 00:07:24,240 Speaker 2: lot of frustration and anger that come out because the 140 00:07:24,320 --> 00:07:26,640 Speaker 2: cops were on one level and then the boys were 141 00:07:26,680 --> 00:07:29,440 Speaker 2: on another level. That was a for Christmas party police 142 00:07:29,480 --> 00:07:33,520 Speaker 2: Christmas party. Boys were on another level, and it just 143 00:07:33,760 --> 00:07:36,400 Speaker 2: turned into this massive all in brawl. 144 00:07:36,480 --> 00:07:38,080 Speaker 1: It was always going to happen. There was always going 145 00:07:38,160 --> 00:07:40,520 Speaker 1: to happen if they were there holding their function, there 146 00:07:40,520 --> 00:07:42,280 Speaker 1: holding your functions. It was always going to happen. 147 00:07:42,360 --> 00:07:44,200 Speaker 2: It's always going to happen. It was just a bit 148 00:07:44,240 --> 00:07:47,520 Speaker 2: of a shocker. Whoever booked both both parties on the 149 00:07:47,560 --> 00:07:48,000 Speaker 2: same night. 150 00:07:48,560 --> 00:07:51,200 Speaker 1: Why did you? Why do I mean you didn't come 151 00:07:51,240 --> 00:07:55,440 Speaker 1: from a bad you know, upbringing, I mean you lived 152 00:07:55,480 --> 00:07:58,280 Speaker 1: in rub but why did you join up? 153 00:07:59,160 --> 00:08:02,160 Speaker 2: It was just because I surf there and was a 154 00:08:02,240 --> 00:08:04,960 Speaker 2: local down the beach and we sort of there was 155 00:08:05,040 --> 00:08:06,920 Speaker 2: this side of it where we wanted to make the 156 00:08:07,000 --> 00:08:09,280 Speaker 2: beach safe because the beach was a dangerous place. And 157 00:08:09,360 --> 00:08:10,880 Speaker 2: there was a side of it where we wanted to 158 00:08:10,960 --> 00:08:13,560 Speaker 2: make the beach safe for our mums and grandmothers and 159 00:08:13,600 --> 00:08:19,880 Speaker 2: every sisters. And there was everything that was rapes, there 160 00:08:20,000 --> 00:08:23,600 Speaker 2: was there was like women. You know, it wasn't a 161 00:08:23,800 --> 00:08:25,880 Speaker 2: safe place for women and kids to walk around. At 162 00:08:25,920 --> 00:08:28,480 Speaker 2: some stages. There's a lot of drugs, there's a lot 163 00:08:28,520 --> 00:08:32,480 Speaker 2: of alcoholism. So the idea of that was to make 164 00:08:32,520 --> 00:08:35,480 Speaker 2: the play safe. And then it did start to like 165 00:08:35,760 --> 00:08:38,720 Speaker 2: it went one way so far that it turned into 166 00:08:38,800 --> 00:08:41,680 Speaker 2: something was way more than just making the play safe. 167 00:08:41,720 --> 00:08:44,400 Speaker 2: It turned into more of a gang. To be honest, 168 00:08:44,880 --> 00:08:47,280 Speaker 2: that's how it's sort of that's where it comes. 169 00:08:47,080 --> 00:08:50,160 Speaker 1: From and what killed it off sort of thing. 170 00:08:50,840 --> 00:08:55,400 Speaker 2: Mate. The main thing was prescription drugs, I would say 171 00:08:55,600 --> 00:08:58,800 Speaker 2: again to be honest, valum of that, valiums and x 172 00:09:00,240 --> 00:09:05,079 Speaker 2: oxy cotton. Those two the big ones. They were that 173 00:09:05,480 --> 00:09:08,800 Speaker 2: when they because back in the day, people didn't realize 174 00:09:08,840 --> 00:09:11,559 Speaker 2: how dangerous they were because I come from over the counter, 175 00:09:12,320 --> 00:09:14,040 Speaker 2: so you think, oh, yeah, it's from the camas, it 176 00:09:14,120 --> 00:09:17,280 Speaker 2: can't be that bad. And then it just hit like 177 00:09:17,400 --> 00:09:20,559 Speaker 2: it was rampant and you didn't even need a prescription. 178 00:09:20,640 --> 00:09:22,839 Speaker 2: You could go get it off the street for you know, 179 00:09:23,000 --> 00:09:25,920 Speaker 2: hardly anything. It was cheaper than all the other drugs 180 00:09:26,760 --> 00:09:31,199 Speaker 2: and alcohol to cheaper than alcohol, cheaper than cocaine, and 181 00:09:31,360 --> 00:09:34,679 Speaker 2: it tore the boys apart like that. Again, that's to 182 00:09:34,760 --> 00:09:36,680 Speaker 2: be honest, it was a downfall. 183 00:09:37,480 --> 00:09:40,120 Speaker 1: Yeah, and today, do you still have a new contact 184 00:09:40,160 --> 00:09:40,520 Speaker 1: with the guys. 185 00:09:40,880 --> 00:09:42,600 Speaker 2: Yeah, definitely. I'm going to go down the Bay Pub 186 00:09:42,640 --> 00:09:44,000 Speaker 2: after this and have a couple of beers with the 187 00:09:44,040 --> 00:09:46,360 Speaker 2: boys and yeah, and they're all dads now, they're all 188 00:09:46,920 --> 00:09:49,400 Speaker 2: That scene's finished. Yeah, Like it's so good to see, 189 00:09:49,520 --> 00:09:52,599 Speaker 2: like everyone's got young kids. Was a beautiful place to 190 00:09:52,640 --> 00:09:55,079 Speaker 2: bring your family up now, yeah, like it's safe and 191 00:09:55,240 --> 00:10:01,480 Speaker 2: it's it's fucking expensive. Yeah, so mate, it's honestly, like 192 00:10:02,040 --> 00:10:04,360 Speaker 2: it's probably one of the that's one of the best 193 00:10:04,400 --> 00:10:06,240 Speaker 2: things to come out of it. It went full circle. 194 00:10:06,640 --> 00:10:10,760 Speaker 2: Everyone learned their lesson and yeah, the dad's or you know, 195 00:10:11,320 --> 00:10:14,760 Speaker 2: got families, family men and growing up a bit grown up. Yeah, 196 00:10:14,800 --> 00:10:17,160 Speaker 2: you crap out of that ship. Yeah you don't need it. 197 00:10:17,800 --> 00:10:19,439 Speaker 1: You don't need that, and the ship off your liver, 198 00:10:19,640 --> 00:10:22,599 Speaker 1: Like it's the world's not to blame. Yeah, it's you know, 199 00:10:22,800 --> 00:10:24,559 Speaker 1: we've got to take some responsibility, I guess. And I'm 200 00:10:24,559 --> 00:10:27,080 Speaker 1: not here preaching to people like I'm the last person 201 00:10:27,120 --> 00:10:29,959 Speaker 1: to do it, but yeah, but I guess when you're young, 202 00:10:30,120 --> 00:10:32,040 Speaker 1: it's easy to sort of blame everybody else and then 203 00:10:32,120 --> 00:10:33,800 Speaker 1: take take things in your own head. 204 00:10:34,080 --> 00:10:36,800 Speaker 2: Yeah, Like no one put those pills down anyone's throat 205 00:10:36,840 --> 00:10:40,240 Speaker 2: but the boys yourselves. So you can't make excuses, but 206 00:10:40,679 --> 00:10:43,920 Speaker 2: it was a life lesson and just let that know 207 00:10:44,040 --> 00:10:46,480 Speaker 2: for the younger generations that those drugs aren't safe. 208 00:10:47,240 --> 00:10:48,720 Speaker 1: As long as I've ever known you, and I met 209 00:10:48,760 --> 00:10:51,680 Speaker 1: you through GINGE originally, and David would have been David's 210 00:10:52,200 --> 00:10:54,520 Speaker 1: sixty soon and I'm first meet him when he was 211 00:10:54,640 --> 00:11:00,319 Speaker 1: thirty yep, maybe even a bit younger than that. You've 212 00:11:00,360 --> 00:11:02,400 Speaker 1: always been in the fitness because you know, he's always 213 00:11:02,400 --> 00:11:04,920 Speaker 1: been talking about you know, Johnny's doing this. I'm a 214 00:11:05,040 --> 00:11:07,400 Speaker 1: one period there. You know you were just telling me 215 00:11:07,480 --> 00:11:11,120 Speaker 1: that you would used to talk about putting your feet 216 00:11:11,120 --> 00:11:17,560 Speaker 1: on the grass. Yeah, and you're always looking at different things. 217 00:11:18,360 --> 00:11:22,600 Speaker 1: Where where's that sort of curiosity about I'm not going 218 00:11:22,640 --> 00:11:24,480 Speaker 1: to talk about training, there's just general health. 219 00:11:24,720 --> 00:11:26,599 Speaker 2: Yeah. I try and keep an open mind on the 220 00:11:26,880 --> 00:11:30,040 Speaker 2: whole everything that comes through the industry, Like have a 221 00:11:30,440 --> 00:11:32,959 Speaker 2: crack at it and see what works before I sort 222 00:11:33,000 --> 00:11:36,400 Speaker 2: of start using it on clients or or giving advice 223 00:11:36,480 --> 00:11:38,319 Speaker 2: on it, that's for sure. So I give it a 224 00:11:38,360 --> 00:11:41,439 Speaker 2: crack myself. And yeah, just the whole earthing thing and 225 00:11:42,200 --> 00:11:45,360 Speaker 2: anything else, like especially for recovery. I'm being on recovery 226 00:11:45,400 --> 00:11:46,800 Speaker 2: and destressing. 227 00:11:46,600 --> 00:11:48,000 Speaker 1: Because what do I mean distressing. 228 00:11:48,600 --> 00:11:51,760 Speaker 2: Well, I just noticed that if you're in a stress state, 229 00:11:51,960 --> 00:11:54,600 Speaker 2: it's really hard to lose body fat, and it's really 230 00:11:54,640 --> 00:11:57,280 Speaker 2: hard to put on the muscle mass because you're stressed 231 00:11:57,600 --> 00:12:01,160 Speaker 2: and training and everything's another stress on the body. So 232 00:12:01,480 --> 00:12:04,480 Speaker 2: I always look at ways to recover. So I'm looking 233 00:12:04,520 --> 00:12:08,120 Speaker 2: at like obviously the basic ones that's breath work, hot 234 00:12:08,480 --> 00:12:12,120 Speaker 2: like hot cold immersions, and then yeah, earthing, and and 235 00:12:12,280 --> 00:12:15,199 Speaker 2: now I'm big on just even just lying back on 236 00:12:15,320 --> 00:12:17,360 Speaker 2: your back and just doing five or ten minutes of 237 00:12:17,400 --> 00:12:18,280 Speaker 2: meditation a day. 238 00:12:20,559 --> 00:12:25,559 Speaker 1: Is John Gannon talking meditation a day? But a but 239 00:12:25,960 --> 00:12:28,600 Speaker 1: it's a fair evolution if I just go way way 240 00:12:28,679 --> 00:12:30,640 Speaker 1: back though, let me just creep back into this, this 241 00:12:30,720 --> 00:12:32,560 Speaker 1: whole process, because you just covered a lot of ground. 242 00:12:32,559 --> 00:12:40,079 Speaker 1: Then you've always you said to me, you would be 243 00:12:40,160 --> 00:12:44,640 Speaker 1: fair to say that you keep up to date with 244 00:12:44,800 --> 00:12:50,000 Speaker 1: all the latest developments through some sort of structure in 245 00:12:50,120 --> 00:12:52,440 Speaker 1: terms of your own life and research, Like I mean, 246 00:12:52,520 --> 00:12:55,439 Speaker 1: what do you what are you accessing before Google? Before 247 00:12:55,800 --> 00:12:58,000 Speaker 1: what we're talking about now? What were accessing? Say, twenty 248 00:12:58,120 --> 00:12:58,439 Speaker 1: years ago. 249 00:12:58,600 --> 00:13:00,599 Speaker 2: Twenty years ago, Well, I went over and study with 250 00:13:00,679 --> 00:13:03,959 Speaker 2: these guys from the States who taught foundation training, and 251 00:13:04,080 --> 00:13:07,439 Speaker 2: it's what is that it's a postural sort of awareness 252 00:13:07,800 --> 00:13:11,360 Speaker 2: movement patterns where you can do it no equipment. All 253 00:13:11,400 --> 00:13:13,640 Speaker 2: you're doing is really engaging in the back of your body. 254 00:13:13,640 --> 00:13:16,160 Speaker 2: Because these guys are doing it now, I'm trying to 255 00:13:16,200 --> 00:13:17,520 Speaker 2: sit up straight, you know. 256 00:13:18,000 --> 00:13:20,000 Speaker 1: Yeah, but it's a conscious it's. 257 00:13:19,920 --> 00:13:23,679 Speaker 2: Conscious consciously sitting up and making sure because if we 258 00:13:23,920 --> 00:13:25,960 Speaker 2: sit so you so you imagine you're sitting there looking 259 00:13:26,000 --> 00:13:28,640 Speaker 2: at your device, You're hunched over, your shoulders round forward, 260 00:13:28,679 --> 00:13:30,800 Speaker 2: your head migrates forward, and you try and take a 261 00:13:30,840 --> 00:13:32,960 Speaker 2: big breath in that position. It doesn't happen because your 262 00:13:32,960 --> 00:13:37,120 Speaker 2: sternum's pushed down into your diaphragm. Ribcage doesn't expand properly. 263 00:13:37,440 --> 00:13:40,839 Speaker 2: But as soon as you sit straight, shoulders back, take 264 00:13:40,880 --> 00:13:43,199 Speaker 2: a big breath in, you'll access your diaphragm and that 265 00:13:43,360 --> 00:13:47,280 Speaker 2: nice expansion of the rib cage. So I'm into I'm 266 00:13:47,320 --> 00:13:50,640 Speaker 2: really into teaching people that side of wellness, like not 267 00:13:50,880 --> 00:13:54,320 Speaker 2: just strength and conditioning and in the gym and bashing 268 00:13:54,360 --> 00:13:57,439 Speaker 2: yourself up. I'm looking at like the simpler ways to 269 00:13:58,520 --> 00:14:00,679 Speaker 2: for the other twenty three hours the day you're out 270 00:14:00,720 --> 00:14:04,760 Speaker 2: of the gym. How to teach people how to sit, stand, move, breathe. 271 00:14:05,200 --> 00:14:06,400 Speaker 2: I'm right into that side of it. 272 00:14:06,640 --> 00:14:10,920 Speaker 1: Well, why is it important, then, Johnny, for example, to 273 00:14:11,040 --> 00:14:13,400 Speaker 1: be able to be able to breathe properly from your 274 00:14:13,440 --> 00:14:16,640 Speaker 1: belly expanding your diaphram What what? 275 00:14:16,840 --> 00:14:16,880 Speaker 2: What? 276 00:14:17,640 --> 00:14:18,240 Speaker 1: Why is anyway? 277 00:14:18,240 --> 00:14:21,400 Speaker 2: Well, if you are in that hunched over a position 278 00:14:21,480 --> 00:14:24,120 Speaker 2: and you're taking those little shallow chest breaths, your body 279 00:14:24,240 --> 00:14:27,240 Speaker 2: recognizes that as a stressed out state. Your heart rate 280 00:14:27,320 --> 00:14:30,240 Speaker 2: lifts up a little and you're you're not breathed, you're 281 00:14:30,280 --> 00:14:33,600 Speaker 2: not relaxed, you're in that sort of sympathetic state. When 282 00:14:33,760 --> 00:14:36,800 Speaker 2: you sit up straight and you access diaphragm and breathe 283 00:14:36,840 --> 00:14:39,760 Speaker 2: it correctly, you go into more of that parasympathetic state 284 00:14:39,840 --> 00:14:42,200 Speaker 2: and your heart rate all lower, so you're a bit 285 00:14:42,320 --> 00:14:44,880 Speaker 2: you're relaxed. You're in a bit more of a relaxed state, 286 00:14:44,920 --> 00:14:47,720 Speaker 2: and that's when you recover because you're in that parasympathetic state. 287 00:14:47,800 --> 00:14:50,600 Speaker 2: That's the rest digest state that we're looking for. And 288 00:14:50,760 --> 00:14:53,680 Speaker 2: especially if you are stressed, like you know, there is 289 00:14:53,720 --> 00:14:55,840 Speaker 2: a lot of stress around the moment. I don't know 290 00:14:55,840 --> 00:14:58,840 Speaker 2: if you notice, Like obviously financial stress with interest rates, 291 00:14:58,920 --> 00:14:59,880 Speaker 2: cost of living. 292 00:15:00,000 --> 00:15:01,480 Speaker 1: The deal stress, what's going to well. 293 00:15:01,360 --> 00:15:04,880 Speaker 2: Stress massive one, like who knows it totally, you know, 294 00:15:05,480 --> 00:15:07,440 Speaker 2: And there's a fair bit of sickness in the community, 295 00:15:07,560 --> 00:15:10,960 Speaker 2: like Influenza's another big stress on the body. So that's 296 00:15:11,000 --> 00:15:14,440 Speaker 2: why I'm even now, I'm just noticing with clients and 297 00:15:14,640 --> 00:15:18,640 Speaker 2: friends and family, just to get down and do five, ten, fifteen, 298 00:15:18,680 --> 00:15:21,400 Speaker 2: twenty minutes, whatever time you've got, just to get down 299 00:15:21,440 --> 00:15:24,480 Speaker 2: and do a bit of breath work, lie down, guided meditation, 300 00:15:24,680 --> 00:15:28,120 Speaker 2: like you've got a headspace app. We've got just easy 301 00:15:28,200 --> 00:15:33,080 Speaker 2: to YouTube's twenty minutes relaxing relaxside timer. Yeah, that's all 302 00:15:33,160 --> 00:15:35,120 Speaker 2: that stuff. Yeah, you just get down and just give 303 00:15:35,120 --> 00:15:38,280 Speaker 2: yourself fifteen, twenty, whatever it is, what time you've got, 304 00:15:38,920 --> 00:15:43,320 Speaker 2: just try and get into that parasympathetic state and just yeah, destress. 305 00:15:43,480 --> 00:15:45,480 Speaker 1: So maybe I just get you to explain the difference 306 00:15:45,560 --> 00:15:48,000 Speaker 1: in the sympathetic cita and the parasympathetics set. They're actually 307 00:15:49,600 --> 00:15:52,840 Speaker 1: are the opposites to what you would expect. They are confused. 308 00:15:53,640 --> 00:15:56,800 Speaker 1: So the sympathetic state is what it's a stressed outside. 309 00:15:56,920 --> 00:16:00,920 Speaker 1: So your body is stresses, ye stout, heart. 310 00:16:00,840 --> 00:16:06,040 Speaker 2: Rates, elevated levels are up. You're not. You have shallow 311 00:16:06,360 --> 00:16:10,160 Speaker 2: upper respiratory breathing. You're not. You're not in that relaxed state. 312 00:16:10,360 --> 00:16:13,560 Speaker 2: So what I try to do is get people down 313 00:16:13,600 --> 00:16:16,240 Speaker 2: in the other way, go the other direction, because it's 314 00:16:16,240 --> 00:16:18,520 Speaker 2: all right to be in that sympathetic state, but not 315 00:16:18,680 --> 00:16:23,560 Speaker 2: for long periods of time, like we use it to say, competition. 316 00:16:24,280 --> 00:16:26,840 Speaker 2: You know, you get into that sympathetic state, let's go, 317 00:16:26,960 --> 00:16:30,240 Speaker 2: I'm reaped up, adrenaline's up, but you need you can't 318 00:16:30,280 --> 00:16:32,640 Speaker 2: stay at that level for long periods of time because 319 00:16:32,680 --> 00:16:36,400 Speaker 2: stress is detrimental to your health, like your heart health, 320 00:16:37,080 --> 00:16:40,720 Speaker 2: your physical health, your mental health. So that's why, especially 321 00:16:40,760 --> 00:16:44,000 Speaker 2: in the challenges I do, I add a de stress 322 00:16:44,080 --> 00:16:47,400 Speaker 2: element to one of the foundations of the of the challenge. 323 00:16:47,640 --> 00:16:49,720 Speaker 1: So now let's just talk about so I think most 324 00:16:49,720 --> 00:16:51,960 Speaker 1: people want to send with the sympathetic state is or 325 00:16:52,320 --> 00:16:58,320 Speaker 1: most people have experienced that's a cortisol adrenaline, sure breath, panicky, 326 00:16:59,240 --> 00:17:02,120 Speaker 1: and it can be any it sets you off. Probably 327 00:17:02,160 --> 00:17:04,440 Speaker 1: most people don't realize, as you just explained, that you 328 00:17:04,520 --> 00:17:06,879 Speaker 1: can put your body, you can put yourself in a 329 00:17:06,920 --> 00:17:10,119 Speaker 1: position that your body thinks it's in that stressful position, 330 00:17:10,280 --> 00:17:13,680 Speaker 1: but just both through posture, bad posture. That's talk about 331 00:17:13,680 --> 00:17:21,080 Speaker 1: then parasympathetic. Parasympathic is about recovery. And we've never really 332 00:17:21,119 --> 00:17:25,200 Speaker 1: thought like most people, especially training, it's never really thought 333 00:17:25,200 --> 00:17:27,760 Speaker 1: about recovery or all were thinking about is training, train, train, 334 00:17:27,840 --> 00:17:31,720 Speaker 1: more training, do miss out trying to do another training session? Going, 335 00:17:31,800 --> 00:17:34,159 Speaker 1: I get two in for the day we're going And 336 00:17:34,280 --> 00:17:36,480 Speaker 1: that's all about stress. That's pretty stress in your body. 337 00:17:37,480 --> 00:17:39,479 Speaker 1: Let's give us give me a little bit of an 338 00:17:39,520 --> 00:17:42,040 Speaker 1: understanding about this recovery process from your point of view, 339 00:17:42,119 --> 00:17:45,200 Speaker 1: Like what are we talking about here is let's just 340 00:17:45,280 --> 00:17:50,480 Speaker 1: put let's put meditation aside, metal stuff. But what do 341 00:17:50,560 --> 00:17:51,560 Speaker 1: you mean by recovery? 342 00:17:52,359 --> 00:17:56,000 Speaker 2: So, like like we just spoke about, like when we're 343 00:17:56,000 --> 00:17:59,600 Speaker 2: in that stressed out states, it's okay, but you need 344 00:17:59,680 --> 00:18:02,200 Speaker 2: to come back down into that recovery state and it 345 00:18:02,400 --> 00:18:05,520 Speaker 2: really helps with your sleep patterns. Okay, And there's there's 346 00:18:05,920 --> 00:18:08,120 Speaker 2: obviously there's different ways to do that. There's hot cold 347 00:18:08,160 --> 00:18:10,720 Speaker 2: immersions that are really popular at the moment. That's why 348 00:18:11,160 --> 00:18:13,640 Speaker 2: all those recovery centers are so popular at the moment, 349 00:18:14,119 --> 00:18:16,760 Speaker 2: which is great. It's it's a really good form of 350 00:18:16,960 --> 00:18:20,119 Speaker 2: taking inflammation out of the body, which is another stress. 351 00:18:20,359 --> 00:18:23,200 Speaker 2: You know, when you're inflamed, you hold onto inflammation. So 352 00:18:23,359 --> 00:18:26,600 Speaker 2: that's if you can bring that down, that's massive and 353 00:18:26,720 --> 00:18:30,080 Speaker 2: you just add through cold hot cold. You can do 354 00:18:30,600 --> 00:18:33,920 Speaker 2: whatever protocol you want. You can do three minutes in 355 00:18:33,960 --> 00:18:36,480 Speaker 2: the cold, two minutes in the hot, whatever suits you. 356 00:18:36,760 --> 00:18:38,960 Speaker 2: I can't tell people that one. Some people just love 357 00:18:39,040 --> 00:18:41,800 Speaker 2: doing the saunas, some people just love doing the cold, 358 00:18:42,280 --> 00:18:46,560 Speaker 2: some people like doing a bit of both. Yeah, that 359 00:18:46,800 --> 00:18:47,760 Speaker 2: that's a massive one. 360 00:18:47,920 --> 00:18:50,640 Speaker 1: So sort of trying to manage your inflammation inflammation when 361 00:18:50,680 --> 00:18:53,240 Speaker 1: we train. Yeah, it's information. 362 00:18:55,119 --> 00:18:59,640 Speaker 2: Joints, dehydrated, bit inflamed, So we're looking at hydrating as well. 363 00:19:00,000 --> 00:19:00,760 Speaker 1: What about hydration? 364 00:19:00,840 --> 00:19:03,160 Speaker 2: Then hydration is a massive form of recovery. 365 00:19:03,960 --> 00:19:05,359 Speaker 1: So what would we talk me? So, how do I 366 00:19:05,440 --> 00:19:06,480 Speaker 1: know if I'm not hydrating? 367 00:19:07,119 --> 00:19:09,320 Speaker 2: This is sounding like I'm a fanatical here, But I 368 00:19:09,400 --> 00:19:11,240 Speaker 2: get on the scales. I get on the scales a 369 00:19:11,280 --> 00:19:12,800 Speaker 2: couple of times a day because I know I sit 370 00:19:12,840 --> 00:19:15,240 Speaker 2: on ninety two kilos. If I go for a surf 371 00:19:15,320 --> 00:19:17,840 Speaker 2: and have a train, I'll come in back in at 372 00:19:17,920 --> 00:19:19,840 Speaker 2: ninety kilos. I know I've got to drink two leaves 373 00:19:19,840 --> 00:19:21,680 Speaker 2: of water to get back up. I know I haven't 374 00:19:21,720 --> 00:19:25,479 Speaker 2: lost two kilos of fat or muscle. I've lost two 375 00:19:25,560 --> 00:19:28,080 Speaker 2: kilos of fluid. So I'll could jump on the scales. 376 00:19:28,119 --> 00:19:30,639 Speaker 2: I'm ninety kilos. I'll drink a liter of water. I'm 377 00:19:30,680 --> 00:19:33,600 Speaker 2: back up to ninety one. I'll drink another and I 378 00:19:33,840 --> 00:19:36,960 Speaker 2: just try and balance my hydration like that. It's not 379 00:19:37,040 --> 00:19:38,760 Speaker 2: a bad way to do it. I had a bit 380 00:19:38,800 --> 00:19:41,760 Speaker 2: of electrolytes in the water, a bit of potassium, magnesium, 381 00:19:41,800 --> 00:19:44,720 Speaker 2: and salt. No sugar, no sugar, I don't even I 382 00:19:44,840 --> 00:19:47,119 Speaker 2: just keep it salty. I don't have no flavoring at all. 383 00:19:47,359 --> 00:19:51,720 Speaker 2: Some people love flavoring. I just keep it salty and minerally. 384 00:19:51,800 --> 00:19:54,159 Speaker 1: And your body actually ac funally I have that's just 385 00:19:54,240 --> 00:19:57,160 Speaker 1: full soul. So there too my body. I think, initially, 386 00:19:57,200 --> 00:19:58,639 Speaker 1: go ah, I can't. I don't want to drink this 387 00:19:58,680 --> 00:20:01,359 Speaker 1: because you set a puke. But but then your body 388 00:20:02,119 --> 00:20:04,280 Speaker 1: tells you likes it. It likes to it likes the 389 00:20:04,320 --> 00:20:06,000 Speaker 1: souldness goodness. 390 00:20:06,080 --> 00:20:07,280 Speaker 2: You dap to it pretty quick. 391 00:20:07,440 --> 00:20:09,320 Speaker 1: That's interesting what you just said about you go for 392 00:20:09,400 --> 00:20:13,840 Speaker 1: a surf. I know, if like when I was just 393 00:20:13,880 --> 00:20:17,480 Speaker 1: to have to cut weight. Thank god, those days have 394 00:20:17,560 --> 00:20:22,120 Speaker 1: to cut weight. I know, I'd always love it when 395 00:20:22,160 --> 00:20:24,399 Speaker 1: we had the if in the amateurs, you weigh in 396 00:20:24,480 --> 00:20:26,200 Speaker 1: the morning. You've got to win every morning. But you 397 00:20:26,280 --> 00:20:29,520 Speaker 1: weigh in the morning. And I said, like the way 398 00:20:29,560 --> 00:20:32,240 Speaker 1: in the morning, because if I so, it gave a 399 00:20:32,280 --> 00:20:35,040 Speaker 1: bit at nine o'clock, whatever, ten o'clock. Then I wake 400 00:20:35,119 --> 00:20:38,240 Speaker 1: up the next morning at say six or seven o'clock. 401 00:20:38,240 --> 00:20:40,159 Speaker 1: And let's say you go to the bathroom, do that business. 402 00:20:41,520 --> 00:20:47,280 Speaker 1: Just through that nighttime. You lose a kilo, but just 403 00:20:47,480 --> 00:20:50,080 Speaker 1: your bodies use it up, and you're breathing and you're sweating, 404 00:20:50,119 --> 00:20:54,040 Speaker 1: and you a bit dehydrated, and you can I haven't 405 00:20:54,080 --> 00:20:56,840 Speaker 1: lost any muscle or any battering, and it's just lost 406 00:20:57,200 --> 00:21:00,480 Speaker 1: flouid water and and a load of water as a killer. 407 00:21:01,200 --> 00:21:04,480 Speaker 1: That's the usual general rule straight back on exactly the 408 00:21:04,640 --> 00:21:07,560 Speaker 1: leader water is one killer. Wait, if you've lost one 409 00:21:07,640 --> 00:21:10,760 Speaker 1: killer weight after a heavy training session, it's not because 410 00:21:10,800 --> 00:21:13,600 Speaker 1: you lost a killer fat. You lost a killer water. 411 00:21:13,720 --> 00:21:15,639 Speaker 1: And it's not a bad rule, which means you got 412 00:21:15,720 --> 00:21:17,400 Speaker 1: to replace it and to replace it with a killer 413 00:21:17,840 --> 00:21:18,480 Speaker 1: with the leader of water. 414 00:21:19,040 --> 00:21:21,160 Speaker 2: Because you feel like shit, you feel like you've you've 415 00:21:21,240 --> 00:21:24,360 Speaker 2: run down. You feel fatigued, that's dehydrated. 416 00:21:24,440 --> 00:21:27,439 Speaker 1: Use gloss of clarity in your brain because you've. 417 00:21:27,280 --> 00:21:30,240 Speaker 2: Brained you get a bit of a headache. That's the 418 00:21:30,320 --> 00:21:31,480 Speaker 2: first line of dehydration. 419 00:21:31,880 --> 00:21:35,919 Speaker 1: Because I watched these I was watching. I've watched fighters 420 00:21:35,960 --> 00:21:37,760 Speaker 1: or boxing matches all the time, and I was watching 421 00:21:37,880 --> 00:21:40,719 Speaker 1: the other day. I won't say it is something well 422 00:21:40,800 --> 00:21:43,240 Speaker 1: known in Australia. I've got to be disappointed with the 423 00:21:43,320 --> 00:21:48,760 Speaker 1: corner because I noticed that two things. You know, after 424 00:21:48,800 --> 00:21:51,960 Speaker 1: about round five or six in a pro fight with 425 00:21:52,080 --> 00:21:55,600 Speaker 1: three minute rounds, your body temperature goes up to about 426 00:21:55,640 --> 00:21:58,000 Speaker 1: forty forty one degrees, quite dangerous, like if you were 427 00:21:58,359 --> 00:22:00,600 Speaker 1: a little kid. Every one of your kids temper is 428 00:22:00,640 --> 00:22:04,320 Speaker 1: forty of yours. To the hospital and you're and you're 429 00:22:04,680 --> 00:22:06,960 Speaker 1: burning a lot of fluid. And I noticed that they 430 00:22:08,040 --> 00:22:10,920 Speaker 1: weren't giving putting any ice on his head to cool 431 00:22:10,960 --> 00:22:14,560 Speaker 1: down his core temperature, and they weren't. He wasn't drinking 432 00:22:14,720 --> 00:22:19,119 Speaker 1: much water. And I thought of himself, what happens in 433 00:22:19,200 --> 00:22:20,879 Speaker 1: that situation, especial if you get hit on the chin, 434 00:22:21,000 --> 00:22:23,600 Speaker 1: like what happens that situation? You start to lose clarity 435 00:22:24,400 --> 00:22:27,720 Speaker 1: and you can't respond to what's in front of you, 436 00:22:28,720 --> 00:22:31,480 Speaker 1: so you can't make good decisions. So if I just 437 00:22:31,600 --> 00:22:34,080 Speaker 1: take that, extrapolate that out into someone who's just a 438 00:22:34,119 --> 00:22:37,000 Speaker 1: normal person out there who doesn't get up in the morning, 439 00:22:37,080 --> 00:22:38,679 Speaker 1: drink a looter of water as soon as you get up. 440 00:22:39,359 --> 00:22:41,360 Speaker 1: You know, I don't mean immediately, but like I start 441 00:22:41,480 --> 00:22:43,840 Speaker 1: drinking the water instead, they get up to drink cofee. 442 00:22:44,080 --> 00:22:48,080 Speaker 1: Do I drink yourself anymore? So drink some water before 443 00:22:48,080 --> 00:22:51,639 Speaker 1: you drink coffee. But that person, if they don't, This 444 00:22:51,760 --> 00:22:53,080 Speaker 1: happens a lot of times, as you know, a lot 445 00:22:53,080 --> 00:22:56,080 Speaker 1: of people don't drink and water. Then they go to work, 446 00:22:56,080 --> 00:22:58,639 Speaker 1: they're trying to make decisions, they've had three coffees. They 447 00:22:58,720 --> 00:23:01,679 Speaker 1: wonder why they make mistakes. And that's without any training. 448 00:23:02,040 --> 00:23:05,359 Speaker 1: That's ad a bit of exercise in there. They really dehydrate. 449 00:23:06,359 --> 00:23:09,240 Speaker 1: So how do you get into your client's head, the 450 00:23:09,320 --> 00:23:11,440 Speaker 1: ones you train, the ones you look after, how do 451 00:23:11,480 --> 00:23:12,120 Speaker 1: you get into their head? 452 00:23:12,200 --> 00:23:12,240 Speaker 2: Like? 453 00:23:12,440 --> 00:23:14,359 Speaker 1: Can you change this? Because there's a lifestyle change all 454 00:23:14,400 --> 00:23:18,800 Speaker 1: these people I mean like drink water. Do you put 455 00:23:18,800 --> 00:23:19,479 Speaker 1: them on a program? 456 00:23:20,160 --> 00:23:23,320 Speaker 2: I don't. What I do is just so you constantly 457 00:23:23,440 --> 00:23:25,680 Speaker 2: have a bottle of water with you, going by a 458 00:23:25,720 --> 00:23:30,680 Speaker 2: good quality water bottle, good stainless steel one carried around 459 00:23:30,720 --> 00:23:32,360 Speaker 2: with no place. No plastic. 460 00:23:32,480 --> 00:23:33,439 Speaker 1: I'm saying, no plastic. 461 00:23:33,640 --> 00:23:36,680 Speaker 2: Plastic. Even with the BP A free plastic, I forget. 462 00:23:36,720 --> 00:23:38,840 Speaker 2: I don't trust it, especially if it's in the sun 463 00:23:38,920 --> 00:23:41,879 Speaker 2: and all that. By a good stainless steel water bottle, 464 00:23:42,320 --> 00:23:44,760 Speaker 2: you can have it for until you lose it. I've 465 00:23:44,800 --> 00:23:45,600 Speaker 2: lost a million of them. 466 00:23:45,800 --> 00:23:51,040 Speaker 1: I've got as because I've got so many bottles, and 467 00:23:51,119 --> 00:23:52,160 Speaker 1: everyone leaves them at the gym. 468 00:23:52,240 --> 00:23:54,920 Speaker 2: I've got a collection of them because everyone runs out 469 00:23:54,960 --> 00:23:56,080 Speaker 2: on a bit of a high out of the gym, 470 00:23:56,119 --> 00:23:59,639 Speaker 2: they leave their water bottle. Thatt. But yeah, carry a 471 00:23:59,640 --> 00:24:02,680 Speaker 2: water with it well at all times. And I find 472 00:24:02,720 --> 00:24:07,360 Speaker 2: a good quality electrolyte that you like that's got the magnesium, 473 00:24:07,400 --> 00:24:10,520 Speaker 2: the potassium, and the salt in it. Because you see 474 00:24:10,640 --> 00:24:13,479 Speaker 2: people say at the end of a marathon when they 475 00:24:13,720 --> 00:24:16,639 Speaker 2: when they when they lose their coordination and they hit 476 00:24:16,680 --> 00:24:19,600 Speaker 2: the wall, it's called that all that is is lack 477 00:24:19,640 --> 00:24:20,760 Speaker 2: of minerals in the body. 478 00:24:20,960 --> 00:24:22,120 Speaker 1: So you sweated it out. 479 00:24:22,160 --> 00:24:24,480 Speaker 2: You've sweated all the minerals out of your body. So 480 00:24:24,560 --> 00:24:28,480 Speaker 2: the potassium, magnesium, and salt, if they had that, the 481 00:24:28,600 --> 00:24:32,080 Speaker 2: electrical currents that go through your body. It connects your brains. 482 00:24:32,119 --> 00:24:34,840 Speaker 2: The little signals that run through through your nervous system. 483 00:24:35,280 --> 00:24:38,399 Speaker 2: They don't fire because they need they need those minerals 484 00:24:38,640 --> 00:24:42,560 Speaker 2: as a current to fire, to conduct, to conduct, and 485 00:24:42,680 --> 00:24:45,600 Speaker 2: they they've gone. It's depleted. So that's why they just 486 00:24:46,040 --> 00:24:49,440 Speaker 2: turned into jellyfish. They can't stand up. That's exactly why 487 00:24:49,560 --> 00:24:51,960 Speaker 2: we need to stay hydrated. And that's an extreme. 488 00:24:51,800 --> 00:24:54,200 Speaker 1: There's extreme version, but it doesn't matter. It does affect people. 489 00:24:54,680 --> 00:24:59,119 Speaker 1: I mean old school guys like I can remember Isaid 490 00:24:59,200 --> 00:25:03,800 Speaker 1: trainers guy Gary Stemware stumbles and we would go out 491 00:25:03,920 --> 00:25:07,719 Speaker 1: on Friday. This is what we do Friday. We get 492 00:25:07,800 --> 00:25:10,280 Speaker 1: on the Friday. We're going to train, train to ass 493 00:25:10,320 --> 00:25:16,040 Speaker 1: off after work really hard, no no, no hydration, straight 494 00:25:16,080 --> 00:25:19,040 Speaker 1: to the park, drink ten beers. 495 00:25:19,359 --> 00:25:20,159 Speaker 2: That's old school. 496 00:25:20,640 --> 00:25:25,560 Speaker 1: And then Saturday morning, Sat Day, lunchtime around eleven o'clock, 497 00:25:25,960 --> 00:25:29,040 Speaker 1: find the hottest part of the day. Anyway, backpack fill 498 00:25:29,119 --> 00:25:31,359 Speaker 1: full of sand and we used to go for a run. 499 00:25:32,119 --> 00:25:36,040 Speaker 1: And you wonder why you get fucking injuries like bad news, 500 00:25:36,119 --> 00:25:38,720 Speaker 1: bad whatever you get, you get, you wonder why, But 501 00:25:39,200 --> 00:25:41,560 Speaker 1: that was what we used to do, like back in 502 00:25:41,600 --> 00:25:43,280 Speaker 1: those days, you get we were young, so you sort 503 00:25:43,320 --> 00:25:46,320 Speaker 1: of get away with it, but still that old school system. 504 00:25:46,440 --> 00:25:48,560 Speaker 1: So you know, I think what people like you were 505 00:25:48,560 --> 00:25:50,760 Speaker 1: trying to do is you're trying to bring back some intelligence, 506 00:25:51,680 --> 00:25:54,960 Speaker 1: some thought process based on science. You're not just making 507 00:25:55,000 --> 00:25:56,600 Speaker 1: shit up. It's based on science. 508 00:25:57,119 --> 00:25:59,240 Speaker 2: I follow, you know, I've got my people. 509 00:25:59,280 --> 00:26:03,120 Speaker 1: I follow one ye who gives it gives an example, follow. 510 00:26:03,000 --> 00:26:06,720 Speaker 2: Doctor Ronda Patrick. She's she's an American woman and she's 511 00:26:06,920 --> 00:26:10,439 Speaker 2: clued up on she she breaks she breaks down all 512 00:26:10,480 --> 00:26:12,280 Speaker 2: the science of all the later. 513 00:26:12,160 --> 00:26:14,000 Speaker 1: Studies about exercise. 514 00:26:13,640 --> 00:26:18,640 Speaker 2: About nutrition, exercise, movement, hydra like sleep, hydration. 515 00:26:18,800 --> 00:26:21,240 Speaker 1: She's really good, doctor Ronda Patrick Patrick. 516 00:26:21,320 --> 00:26:24,119 Speaker 2: Yep, she's she's cool. I just like the way she 517 00:26:24,280 --> 00:26:27,119 Speaker 2: explains things like I couldn't read a scientific paper to 518 00:26:27,160 --> 00:26:31,640 Speaker 2: save myself, but she breaks it down really well. Yeah. Her. 519 00:26:31,800 --> 00:26:33,960 Speaker 2: And then as there's a few others I follow that 520 00:26:34,080 --> 00:26:37,040 Speaker 2: I posted here up a bit. There's a few other 521 00:26:37,320 --> 00:26:40,320 Speaker 2: few others I follow, but it's pretty interesting. It just 522 00:26:40,480 --> 00:26:43,520 Speaker 2: interests me that side of it, and I think it's 523 00:26:43,560 --> 00:26:46,000 Speaker 2: a way forward because again it comes down to recovery. 524 00:26:46,720 --> 00:26:49,960 Speaker 2: The better you recover, the better you train. So that's 525 00:26:50,040 --> 00:26:51,720 Speaker 2: that's the way I look at it as well. Because 526 00:26:51,760 --> 00:26:56,159 Speaker 2: if you're recovering through hydro hydration through hot cold immersions, 527 00:26:56,760 --> 00:26:59,240 Speaker 2: the better your next performance is when you train. The 528 00:26:59,359 --> 00:27:02,600 Speaker 2: more like you're saying, cognitive connection you've got with your 529 00:27:02,640 --> 00:27:06,520 Speaker 2: body when you train, Because when I'm training someone, I'm 530 00:27:06,560 --> 00:27:09,879 Speaker 2: not too worried about reps and sets. I'm more thinking 531 00:27:09,920 --> 00:27:12,280 Speaker 2: about how can I get this person to move better 532 00:27:13,600 --> 00:27:17,600 Speaker 2: through cognitive sort of movement with intent. So I'm saying, 533 00:27:17,720 --> 00:27:21,720 Speaker 2: slow down, move with intent, move like think about what 534 00:27:21,760 --> 00:27:25,919 Speaker 2: you're going to do, like purposeful movement like it's all 535 00:27:26,240 --> 00:27:28,560 Speaker 2: and it works so much better than just you know, 536 00:27:28,600 --> 00:27:30,200 Speaker 2: when you see people at the gym and they're just 537 00:27:31,000 --> 00:27:32,880 Speaker 2: just getting through the reps and sets for the sake 538 00:27:32,960 --> 00:27:35,760 Speaker 2: of it, there's no thought in what they're doing at all. 539 00:27:36,000 --> 00:27:37,600 Speaker 1: So I mean, you know, we're just saying, if you're 540 00:27:37,600 --> 00:27:39,320 Speaker 1: going to exercise, have a strategy. 541 00:27:39,119 --> 00:27:44,400 Speaker 2: Have strategy, and move move with purpose like you just said, 542 00:27:44,440 --> 00:27:48,440 Speaker 2: and intent, and it's more cognitive. You just connect with 543 00:27:48,520 --> 00:27:51,720 Speaker 2: a movement way better slow it down and then work 544 00:27:51,760 --> 00:27:52,600 Speaker 2: on speeding it up. 545 00:27:52,840 --> 00:27:56,280 Speaker 1: So when you because obviously about this the other day, 546 00:27:56,440 --> 00:27:59,240 Speaker 1: I thought, because you know this project, I'm trying to 547 00:27:59,680 --> 00:28:01,600 Speaker 1: work out how to optimize myself to get one hundre 548 00:28:01,640 --> 00:28:04,920 Speaker 1: years of age. And I thought of himself, well, I really, Mark, 549 00:28:04,960 --> 00:28:07,399 Speaker 1: what are you training for? What do you want to 550 00:28:07,480 --> 00:28:10,040 Speaker 1: achieve with your training? Therefore that should inform you us 551 00:28:10,160 --> 00:28:12,879 Speaker 1: what type of training I should do. And then I 552 00:28:12,920 --> 00:28:15,880 Speaker 1: thought of himself, well, you know, when i'm let's say 553 00:28:15,880 --> 00:28:17,480 Speaker 1: when i'm ninety, if I get there, but if i'm 554 00:28:17,560 --> 00:28:21,040 Speaker 1: ninety'd be great. If i'm I've either got great grandsons 555 00:28:21,160 --> 00:28:26,600 Speaker 1: or grandson daughters, whatever. And let's say they're two, and 556 00:28:26,760 --> 00:28:30,920 Speaker 1: let's say they're weigh twelve kilos. Can I bend down 557 00:28:31,200 --> 00:28:36,040 Speaker 1: and pick that kid up functionally? So I think to myself, Okay, 558 00:28:36,040 --> 00:28:38,760 Speaker 1: well Mark, maybe now at my age, now you've got 559 00:28:38,800 --> 00:28:43,640 Speaker 1: to start training for that day with movement and to 560 00:28:43,800 --> 00:28:46,440 Speaker 1: exercise that sort of mimics that process because you don't 561 00:28:46,440 --> 00:28:48,480 Speaker 1: want to be at ninety. Either you can't do it 562 00:28:48,520 --> 00:28:49,720 Speaker 1: and you're frail, or. 563 00:28:49,760 --> 00:28:52,200 Speaker 2: The parents don't trust you're picking up the baby because. 564 00:28:52,080 --> 00:28:54,880 Speaker 1: So Dad don't do it. Alternately, I do it. I 565 00:28:55,000 --> 00:28:57,480 Speaker 1: injure myself. And then because once you injure yourself with 566 00:28:57,520 --> 00:29:00,400 Speaker 1: that age, you're in trouble for a long time, a 567 00:29:00,480 --> 00:29:04,280 Speaker 1: long time. That's that's hips backs you do a knee 568 00:29:04,480 --> 00:29:06,120 Speaker 1: and you don't as we're going to hit a back 569 00:29:06,160 --> 00:29:09,800 Speaker 1: operation or hip operation that in those periods. So you've 570 00:29:09,800 --> 00:29:12,880 Speaker 1: got to have enough flex and muscle and strength and 571 00:29:13,280 --> 00:29:17,000 Speaker 1: whatever and body muscle memory, et cetera to be able 572 00:29:17,040 --> 00:29:20,320 Speaker 1: to do these things. So how important is it for 573 00:29:20,520 --> 00:29:22,760 Speaker 1: people when you say purpose? Well, how important is for 574 00:29:22,840 --> 00:29:25,360 Speaker 1: people to sort of actually say, Okay, that's the function 575 00:29:25,440 --> 00:29:27,040 Speaker 1: I want to be able to do. So I don't 576 00:29:27,080 --> 00:29:29,880 Speaker 1: really need to go and do girls, I'm not going 577 00:29:29,920 --> 00:29:32,680 Speaker 1: to be curling the kid. I'm going to be using 578 00:29:32,760 --> 00:29:33,760 Speaker 1: my Yeah. 579 00:29:33,600 --> 00:29:35,560 Speaker 2: You're going to hinge and you're going to use a 580 00:29:35,680 --> 00:29:36,440 Speaker 2: nice smooth hippi. 581 00:29:37,000 --> 00:29:41,080 Speaker 1: And what's the right technique? That's it a technique body technique. 582 00:29:41,320 --> 00:29:43,400 Speaker 2: You can get down into a nice deep squat pattern 583 00:29:43,520 --> 00:29:46,120 Speaker 2: or a nice deep hip hinge. Do you do that? Yeah, 584 00:29:46,280 --> 00:29:48,560 Speaker 2: you look definitely. And you know what, that is a 585 00:29:48,600 --> 00:29:51,360 Speaker 2: great motivator what you just mentioned. They've been able to 586 00:29:51,440 --> 00:29:55,320 Speaker 2: keep up with your future grand your kids, grand kids. 587 00:29:55,880 --> 00:29:58,240 Speaker 2: That's such a good motivator. Or it is for me, 588 00:29:58,360 --> 00:30:00,320 Speaker 2: but it is it should be for a everyone. 589 00:30:00,400 --> 00:30:02,240 Speaker 1: But I don't know, But do you find that John, 590 00:30:02,320 --> 00:30:04,880 Speaker 1: that like when you get to you need is it 591 00:30:05,320 --> 00:30:08,200 Speaker 1: just a function of say, someone gets to my age, 592 00:30:08,240 --> 00:30:09,960 Speaker 1: and that's only when we start thinking about it. Because 593 00:30:11,120 --> 00:30:14,400 Speaker 1: and even you now you know in your fifties, when 594 00:30:14,440 --> 00:30:16,160 Speaker 1: you were thirty, mate, yeah, a lot of stuff you 595 00:30:16,160 --> 00:30:18,240 Speaker 1: would have thought about you just I mean when I 596 00:30:18,320 --> 00:30:22,360 Speaker 1: was with I was just rippetage whatever, and I didn't 597 00:30:22,360 --> 00:30:27,960 Speaker 1: and I applied that sort of attitude everything I did, work, sport, everything. 598 00:30:29,640 --> 00:30:32,479 Speaker 1: Now I'm older, do you feel as though we need 599 00:30:32,560 --> 00:30:35,680 Speaker 1: to start to educate people, at least in our country, 600 00:30:36,280 --> 00:30:38,360 Speaker 1: educate younger people. And I don't want to be a 601 00:30:38,480 --> 00:30:42,239 Speaker 1: lecture in anyone, but educate them about the benefits are 602 00:30:42,240 --> 00:30:44,280 Speaker 1: starting early the thinking process. 603 00:30:44,400 --> 00:30:46,400 Speaker 2: That's a hard person Like you're saying, it's a pretty 604 00:30:46,440 --> 00:30:49,800 Speaker 2: hard cell to get people in their thirties start thinking 605 00:30:49,840 --> 00:30:51,160 Speaker 2: about movement when they're sixty. 606 00:30:51,480 --> 00:30:52,200 Speaker 1: You seeing any of this? 607 00:30:52,920 --> 00:30:56,720 Speaker 2: Not really, No, I see it more now with our age, Yeah, definitely, 608 00:30:57,120 --> 00:30:59,880 Speaker 2: But when you're that age, like you're saying, it's working 609 00:31:00,160 --> 00:31:03,360 Speaker 2: play hard, bulletproof, which is understandable. Yeah, your bulletproof. You 610 00:31:03,440 --> 00:31:05,240 Speaker 2: couldn't care what's going to happen to your body in 611 00:31:05,520 --> 00:31:08,640 Speaker 2: five weeks time. You just want to look good. And 612 00:31:08,840 --> 00:31:11,120 Speaker 2: saying that vanity is a great motivator as well. 613 00:31:11,120 --> 00:31:15,160 Speaker 1: Totally like, because you're leaner than it used to be. Yeah, 614 00:31:15,520 --> 00:31:18,800 Speaker 1: if I go back to eight twenty years, I reckon 615 00:31:18,880 --> 00:31:22,080 Speaker 1: you would have been I don't know, maybe just ten years, 616 00:31:22,240 --> 00:31:23,000 Speaker 1: ten killers. 617 00:31:22,840 --> 00:31:24,440 Speaker 2: Yeah, probably five. 618 00:31:26,320 --> 00:31:29,280 Speaker 1: You're much Yeah to put on used to put on muscle, 619 00:31:29,320 --> 00:31:30,800 Speaker 1: pretty but now you're more lean. 620 00:31:31,040 --> 00:31:31,880 Speaker 2: Yeah, I'm pretty lean. 621 00:31:32,080 --> 00:31:32,240 Speaker 1: Yeah. 622 00:31:32,280 --> 00:31:35,160 Speaker 2: Yeah. I try and stay around ninety two. That's like 623 00:31:35,240 --> 00:31:37,160 Speaker 2: a pretty happy medium for me. But I have to 624 00:31:37,240 --> 00:31:38,400 Speaker 2: eat to stay at ninety two. 625 00:31:38,600 --> 00:31:45,680 Speaker 1: Could we talk about that then? Eating it's like take 626 00:31:45,840 --> 00:31:50,760 Speaker 1: my my age example, the amount of food like briefas 627 00:31:50,800 --> 00:31:52,920 Speaker 1: and gins as you know.

I don't like losing going under ninety kilos. 647 00:32:43,600 --> 00:32:45,760 Speaker 2: I look frail and I look. My people go, you 648 00:32:46,560 --> 00:32:49,640 Speaker 2: lost weight, You look, you don't look that well. It 649 00:32:49,800 --> 00:32:52,840 Speaker 2: just doesn't suit me.

Strength I purchase you work 653 00:33:00,400 --> 00:33:03,200 Speaker 2: to put on lean muscle masks and so that that's 654 00:33:03,280 --> 00:33:06,440 Speaker 2: resistance training. Resistance training, But what does that mean though? 655 00:33:06,840 --> 00:33:09,320 Speaker 1: Does that mean like trying to bench your best bench? 656 00:33:09,720 --> 00:33:12,040 Speaker 1: Are you doing three of everything or five? What are 657 00:33:12,040 --> 00:33:12,760 Speaker 1: you doing? I do? 658 00:33:13,880 --> 00:33:15,480 Speaker 2: If I'm trying to put on lean muscle mass in 659 00:33:15,560 --> 00:33:18,480 Speaker 2: these challenges I run, I do sort of anywhere from 660 00:33:18,560 --> 00:33:23,080 Speaker 2: eight to twelve reps four sets and old school basic. 661 00:33:23,880 --> 00:33:25,800 Speaker 1: You probably can't do more than ten reps. 662 00:33:26,560 --> 00:33:30,200 Speaker 2: Ten to twelve reps ten to twelve reps max, and 663 00:33:30,320 --> 00:33:33,440 Speaker 2: then I always try and pick away. It's pretty simple 664 00:33:33,760 --> 00:33:37,280 Speaker 2: where the last three reps are getting really tough, right, Okay, 665 00:33:37,360 --> 00:33:39,240 Speaker 2: those last three reps you're going and you're getting a 666 00:33:39,320 --> 00:33:41,560 Speaker 2: nice you feel like you're geting the old school pump, 667 00:33:42,200 --> 00:33:44,920 Speaker 2: the old school burn. That's when I feel like I'm 668 00:33:44,920 --> 00:33:45,880 Speaker 2: putting on lean muscle. 669 00:33:46,360 --> 00:33:48,240 Speaker 1: Is the reason you want to do eight to ten 670 00:33:48,320 --> 00:33:52,440 Speaker 1: reps is because that's tearing enough muscle, but without actually 671 00:33:52,480 --> 00:33:54,520 Speaker 1: tearing too much muscle, but tearing enough so that when 672 00:33:54,520 --> 00:33:56,960 Speaker 1: you recover, when you muscle recovers, it rebuilds. 673 00:33:57,880 --> 00:34:01,520 Speaker 2: So that REP range is it's a bit up in 674 00:34:01,600 --> 00:34:04,520 Speaker 2: the air with reps and sets and how many, but 675 00:34:04,680 --> 00:34:07,960 Speaker 2: I find that REP range is pretty easy to teach. 676 00:34:08,360 --> 00:34:13,520 Speaker 2: It keeps people sort of accountable, like you get to 677 00:34:13,719 --> 00:34:16,520 Speaker 2: and you can compare it to your next workout. Even 678 00:34:16,560 --> 00:34:18,759 Speaker 2: if you go up to sixteen to twenty reps and 679 00:34:18,880 --> 00:34:20,840 Speaker 2: still get that pump. At the end of sixteen or 680 00:34:20,840 --> 00:34:22,719 Speaker 2: twenty reps, it's still you're still going to put on 681 00:34:22,800 --> 00:34:26,440 Speaker 2: lean muscle. So it just depends you can mix up 682 00:34:26,480 --> 00:34:29,120 Speaker 2: you have to do. I do three to four sets, 683 00:34:29,440 --> 00:34:32,080 Speaker 2: but sometimes if I don't have much time I love 684 00:34:32,160 --> 00:34:35,279 Speaker 2: this whole concept of if you haven't got much time 685 00:34:35,360 --> 00:34:38,040 Speaker 2: still going workout, because you can still go and and 686 00:34:38,120 --> 00:34:41,960 Speaker 2: do one set and just absolutely blast yourself. Say you 687 00:34:42,080 --> 00:34:46,520 Speaker 2: do four exercises, one set, go heavier, do twelve reps, 688 00:34:46,640 --> 00:34:49,200 Speaker 2: but have a good warm up so you don't injure yourself. Obviously, 689 00:34:49,880 --> 00:34:52,280 Speaker 2: you can go in there and do four exercises twelve reps, 690 00:34:52,320 --> 00:34:55,520 Speaker 2: but push them to the limit. Like the last two 691 00:34:55,680 --> 00:34:59,360 Speaker 2: reps you are absolutely struggling. It's still you're still going 692 00:34:59,400 --> 00:35:01,080 Speaker 2: to put on your body has to adapt to that 693 00:35:01,160 --> 00:35:03,600 Speaker 2: stimulus and you're going to put on muscle. I guarantee it. 694 00:35:03,880 --> 00:35:07,840 Speaker 1: So when you run, your group's at leak how is it? 695 00:35:08,960 --> 00:35:12,360 Speaker 1: Sometimes I find it can be a bit overwhelming because yeah, okay, 696 00:35:12,760 --> 00:35:14,480 Speaker 1: you're going to do some rabic work. You're got to 697 00:35:14,520 --> 00:35:16,680 Speaker 1: get it on a bike, run a machine or roll 698 00:35:16,840 --> 00:35:21,120 Speaker 1: or something. You know, And some people recommend you've got 699 00:35:21,160 --> 00:35:24,200 Speaker 1: to do one hundred and fifty minutes a week going 700 00:35:24,239 --> 00:35:26,040 Speaker 1: to like, you know, that's the lake. In my case, 701 00:35:26,080 --> 00:35:29,880 Speaker 1: one hundred and fifteen beats a minute. You could have, 702 00:35:30,360 --> 00:35:33,000 Speaker 1: you know, forty minutes, and you've got to do that 703 00:35:33,160 --> 00:35:35,480 Speaker 1: three four times a week. Then you've got to do 704 00:35:36,400 --> 00:35:40,360 Speaker 1: some resistance work minimum two times a week. There's five days, 705 00:35:41,320 --> 00:35:45,880 Speaker 1: and then I like to wrestle. If you're doing that 706 00:35:46,840 --> 00:35:48,640 Speaker 1: three nights a week, all of a sudden, there's no 707 00:35:48,719 --> 00:35:52,120 Speaker 1: more days. I'm over a day and I'm bugging too. 708 00:35:52,640 --> 00:35:56,600 Speaker 1: I'm stuffed. So is it best to sort of say, Okay, 709 00:35:56,840 --> 00:35:58,400 Speaker 1: for this month, I'm going to do I'm just going 710 00:35:58,440 --> 00:36:00,520 Speaker 1: to wrestle. Next month, I'm going to do resistance of 711 00:36:00,560 --> 00:36:03,360 Speaker 1: a month after going do Arabic. I mean, how do 712 00:36:03,440 --> 00:36:04,520 Speaker 1: you do this stuff? Nah? 713 00:36:05,400 --> 00:36:07,600 Speaker 2: Like, I know exactly what you're talking about because I'm 714 00:36:07,640 --> 00:36:12,080 Speaker 2: on the pretty much the same program. Whereas I think 715 00:36:13,320 --> 00:36:17,399 Speaker 2: instead of doing so much cardio, I think pulling your 716 00:36:17,719 --> 00:36:21,040 Speaker 2: reps and sets, making short of rest periods so you're 717 00:36:21,080 --> 00:36:23,279 Speaker 2: still keeping your heart when you're doing your strength work, 718 00:36:23,400 --> 00:36:25,720 Speaker 2: you're still keeping your heart rate at about one fifteen, 719 00:36:25,760 --> 00:36:28,440 Speaker 2: which you just said that's your cardio zone, your own 720 00:36:28,480 --> 00:36:31,560 Speaker 2: two cardio. So if you can wear a heart rate monitor, 721 00:36:31,920 --> 00:36:34,879 Speaker 2: do your strength work and go around the gym, it's 722 00:36:34,920 --> 00:36:37,839 Speaker 2: just a bit more of a circuit. So you're still 723 00:36:37,880 --> 00:36:40,480 Speaker 2: getting your cardio and you're still putting on lean muscle mass. 724 00:36:41,040 --> 00:36:43,399 Speaker 2: That's the way i'd treat that because then you don't 725 00:36:43,440 --> 00:36:45,600 Speaker 2: have to do those extra cardio sessions and you can 726 00:36:45,680 --> 00:36:48,400 Speaker 2: still wrestle and you're still keeping lean muscle mass on. 727 00:36:48,960 --> 00:36:51,280 Speaker 2: So that's the way I'd try and cover that, because 728 00:36:51,320 --> 00:36:55,279 Speaker 2: I know, doing those cardio sets and doing those two 729 00:36:55,520 --> 00:36:58,120 Speaker 2: weight sessions a week and wrestling you're going to be 730 00:36:58,520 --> 00:37:01,919 Speaker 2: pretty run down court at our age. 731 00:37:02,640 --> 00:37:04,440 Speaker 1: Well, as I get old, I find it harder to 732 00:37:04,480 --> 00:37:07,080 Speaker 1: do eat enough, I find it harder to train enough. 733 00:37:07,440 --> 00:37:10,400 Speaker 1: Like what I think what I used to do, no drama, 734 00:37:10,400 --> 00:37:13,719 Speaker 1: sleeping enough because I'm exhausted. But like then, but then 735 00:37:13,760 --> 00:37:15,200 Speaker 1: you've got to work in the middle of all that too. 736 00:37:15,480 --> 00:37:17,640 Speaker 1: Then you've got to fit working family, and then you've 737 00:37:17,640 --> 00:37:19,520 Speaker 1: got all your other extended stuff that you've got to do. 738 00:37:21,120 --> 00:37:22,880 Speaker 1: And what I was just talking to you about then is, 739 00:37:22,920 --> 00:37:25,640 Speaker 1: like I guess, is tailor making an excise program for 740 00:37:25,840 --> 00:37:28,919 Speaker 1: someone like you know, getting older? Let me just dial 741 00:37:29,000 --> 00:37:33,320 Speaker 1: it back. How do you tailor make an exercise training 742 00:37:33,400 --> 00:37:38,600 Speaker 1: program for, say, someone like Taj Borrow who you trained sports? 743 00:37:39,040 --> 00:37:40,680 Speaker 1: Was it sports specific training? 744 00:37:41,040 --> 00:37:43,280 Speaker 2: Definitely on the great surface, one of the great surfaces, 745 00:37:43,400 --> 00:37:47,279 Speaker 2: who never who never won anything, who never won. Yeah, 746 00:37:48,360 --> 00:37:50,360 Speaker 2: so I worked for for seven years on the we 747 00:37:50,480 --> 00:37:52,680 Speaker 2: traveled around the world for seven years. Was his full 748 00:37:52,760 --> 00:37:53,440 Speaker 2: time trainer. 749 00:37:54,280 --> 00:37:56,720 Speaker 1: So had that become about through. 750 00:37:56,719 --> 00:38:00,800 Speaker 2: A mate of ours Sammy McIntosh been on the podcast. 751 00:38:01,680 --> 00:38:04,160 Speaker 2: Sam was really good mates with Taj and he knew 752 00:38:04,440 --> 00:38:07,560 Speaker 2: I was training all the Ruba boys and he just 753 00:38:07,760 --> 00:38:09,400 Speaker 2: liked the style that I was training with because he 754 00:38:09,440 --> 00:38:11,200 Speaker 2: thought Taj needed a bit of a rocket up he's 755 00:38:11,200 --> 00:38:13,440 Speaker 2: ass to try and win a world title, just a 756 00:38:13,520 --> 00:38:15,680 Speaker 2: bit of a bit more motivation, a bit more grit. 757 00:38:15,960 --> 00:38:16,919 Speaker 1: Did he have too much talent? 758 00:38:17,840 --> 00:38:21,600 Speaker 2: I would say that you see that a lot in 759 00:38:21,680 --> 00:38:24,000 Speaker 2: all sports. You know, the most talented kids are the 760 00:38:24,040 --> 00:38:26,640 Speaker 2: ones that don't want to do the work. So my 761 00:38:26,840 --> 00:38:29,960 Speaker 2: job was to come in and obviously train a bit 762 00:38:30,040 --> 00:38:34,399 Speaker 2: of grit into him, like get him hungry, like want 763 00:38:34,440 --> 00:38:37,200 Speaker 2: to win. He wanted to win. He's a competitive little bugger, 764 00:38:37,880 --> 00:38:41,040 Speaker 2: but he just just more grit more like, you know, 765 00:38:41,560 --> 00:38:43,600 Speaker 2: instead of getting to the end of the comp and going, oh, yeah, 766 00:38:43,600 --> 00:38:46,960 Speaker 2: I probably could have done better, but and saying, nah, 767 00:38:47,040 --> 00:38:49,360 Speaker 2: fuck this, I'm going to win this thing. Let's go. 768 00:38:49,960 --> 00:38:51,279 Speaker 2: So that was sort of my role. 769 00:38:52,200 --> 00:38:55,640 Speaker 1: But but how did how did you tailor make something 770 00:38:55,680 --> 00:38:59,040 Speaker 1: for him? So because I've had some you know some 771 00:38:59,160 --> 00:39:02,520 Speaker 1: people someone gain you organized, someone hied my pool and 772 00:39:02,600 --> 00:39:05,759 Speaker 1: they did look at a twenty five med pill up 773 00:39:05,760 --> 00:39:09,360 Speaker 1: at the front and you know what film walking underwater 774 00:39:11,200 --> 00:39:14,920 Speaker 1: rights and which is cool. I was I didn't care, 775 00:39:15,000 --> 00:39:17,560 Speaker 1: But do you do did you do that sort of stuff? 776 00:39:18,680 --> 00:39:20,520 Speaker 1: Because he's not going to so big I mean, he's 777 00:39:20,600 --> 00:39:22,520 Speaker 1: going to he's not going to serve dangerous surf. He's 778 00:39:22,520 --> 00:39:25,200 Speaker 1: probably going to compete at bells or something that they do. 779 00:39:25,400 --> 00:39:28,319 Speaker 2: Go to a couple of dangerous waves like obviously Pipeline 780 00:39:28,400 --> 00:39:33,240 Speaker 2: and chop they were both really very dangerous every dangerous waves, 781 00:39:33,320 --> 00:39:36,439 Speaker 2: which which he sort of he ended up doing really 782 00:39:36,480 --> 00:39:38,440 Speaker 2: well out at the end of his career out of 783 00:39:38,520 --> 00:39:40,920 Speaker 2: Chopo and we won a Pipemaster, so he won a 784 00:39:41,000 --> 00:39:43,880 Speaker 2: pipeline when I was training him. So they were two 785 00:39:43,960 --> 00:39:44,760 Speaker 2: massive achievements. 786 00:39:44,880 --> 00:39:46,680 Speaker 1: Did you get into your water doing that sort of stuff? 787 00:39:47,560 --> 00:39:49,800 Speaker 2: We did a bit of breath work, but not the 788 00:39:49,920 --> 00:39:52,719 Speaker 2: rock carrying and all that stuff. We do sort of 789 00:39:52,840 --> 00:39:55,920 Speaker 2: negative empty lung breath holds. We're getting to exil at 790 00:39:55,960 --> 00:39:58,320 Speaker 2: the top, so he'd sink to the bottom and just 791 00:39:59,000 --> 00:40:01,440 Speaker 2: in the water in the wa because it's been in 792 00:40:01,480 --> 00:40:03,600 Speaker 2: the water is so much different to doing breath work 793 00:40:03,640 --> 00:40:06,680 Speaker 2: on land. Yeah, because you obviously you think, fuck if 794 00:40:06,760 --> 00:40:09,040 Speaker 2: I've got to get to the top here, where on 795 00:40:09,200 --> 00:40:11,120 Speaker 2: land you can go, I'll take a breath here. Yeah, 796 00:40:11,200 --> 00:40:13,400 Speaker 2: so that's that different sort of stimulus. 797 00:40:14,320 --> 00:40:16,279 Speaker 1: But yeah, but is that control just on that? Is 798 00:40:16,320 --> 00:40:18,520 Speaker 1: that because you've got me curious now, is that you're 799 00:40:18,560 --> 00:40:21,960 Speaker 1: talking about sort of being able to control your thoughts? 800 00:40:22,400 --> 00:40:22,600 Speaker 2: Yep? 801 00:40:22,800 --> 00:40:25,399 Speaker 1: When you've got no breath left. 802 00:40:26,160 --> 00:40:28,160 Speaker 2: You go down on exactly it. You go down on 803 00:40:28,200 --> 00:40:30,680 Speaker 2: an empty light. It's got an empty lung. So you'll 804 00:40:30,719 --> 00:40:32,799 Speaker 2: sink if you know you're not at an empty lung, 805 00:40:32,840 --> 00:40:35,000 Speaker 2: if you float back to the surface. But if you are, 806 00:40:35,400 --> 00:40:38,799 Speaker 2: you go, you breathe, exile all you think everything out 807 00:40:39,280 --> 00:40:40,959 Speaker 2: and your CO two builds up a lot quicker. 808 00:40:41,080 --> 00:40:43,879 Speaker 1: It's a cabonic acids comes quick. 809 00:40:44,400 --> 00:40:47,680 Speaker 2: So you were to try and either find a way 810 00:40:48,000 --> 00:40:52,200 Speaker 2: in your head to say, listen, you're fine, well you're 811 00:40:52,239 --> 00:40:54,480 Speaker 2: going to relax. You can either sing a song, you 812 00:40:54,520 --> 00:40:57,040 Speaker 2: can pitch yourself driving down the highway, you just keep 813 00:40:57,160 --> 00:40:59,080 Speaker 2: driving to the next whatever it is you want to do. 814 00:40:59,520 --> 00:41:02,040 Speaker 2: You get down there and you hold that breath. 815 00:41:02,680 --> 00:41:04,600 Speaker 1: And is this in order to mimic what happens to 816 00:41:04,640 --> 00:41:06,359 Speaker 1: you when you come off your board, for example. 817 00:41:06,120 --> 00:41:09,040 Speaker 2: And can do it. It can make you feel a 818 00:41:09,160 --> 00:41:11,800 Speaker 2: lot more comfortable on an empty lung going down and 819 00:41:11,920 --> 00:41:13,400 Speaker 2: just thinking, yeah, I'm all right, I'm all right. 820 00:41:13,440 --> 00:41:14,640 Speaker 1: How long did you got to stay there for? 821 00:41:15,200 --> 00:41:17,359 Speaker 2: Well? It's funny because I do a bit of work 822 00:41:17,440 --> 00:41:20,080 Speaker 2: with the sharks, with the Carnala sharks these days with FITZI, 823 00:41:20,200 --> 00:41:22,000 Speaker 2: I'll go down there and do all their recovery stuff 824 00:41:22,000 --> 00:41:24,319 Speaker 2: and we do that pool work and the boys will 825 00:41:24,360 --> 00:41:27,160 Speaker 2: start off, because they're not surfers, they'll start off with 826 00:41:27,320 --> 00:41:30,120 Speaker 2: fifteen seconds and they come to the surface like a 827 00:41:30,200 --> 00:41:35,040 Speaker 2: torpedo fifteen seconds. They're like, it's that funny watching them, 828 00:41:35,120 --> 00:41:38,560 Speaker 2: but they adapt to it so quick. By the end 829 00:41:38,600 --> 00:41:39,759 Speaker 2: of it. They a lot of them can do a 830 00:41:39,800 --> 00:41:43,040 Speaker 2: minute and a half after doing four rounds on fifteen seconds, 831 00:41:43,600 --> 00:41:45,719 Speaker 2: thirty seconds, forty five minute, and I'll go to a 832 00:41:45,760 --> 00:41:48,640 Speaker 2: minute and a half. Yeah, in one in one, like 833 00:41:48,840 --> 00:41:49,880 Speaker 2: one session, one session. 834 00:41:51,800 --> 00:41:55,759 Speaker 1: And then with Taj so you get him, you do 835 00:41:55,880 --> 00:41:57,640 Speaker 1: breath work in the water with him. I want to 836 00:41:57,640 --> 00:41:59,680 Speaker 1: come back to breath work in a moment because I 837 00:41:59,760 --> 00:42:03,000 Speaker 1: want to picking brains on this. But what what would 838 00:42:03,000 --> 00:42:04,440 Speaker 1: you get him to do for leth would you get 839 00:42:04,520 --> 00:42:05,440 Speaker 1: him to resistance work? 840 00:42:05,880 --> 00:42:09,200 Speaker 2: Definitely, wanted to strengthen him up, turn him into Yeah, 841 00:42:09,640 --> 00:42:11,400 Speaker 2: wanted to create Is. 842 00:42:11,400 --> 00:42:12,640 Speaker 1: He going to do bench press? What are you going? 843 00:42:13,360 --> 00:42:15,160 Speaker 1: Because I mean the only thing he has to lift 844 00:42:15,239 --> 00:42:16,400 Speaker 1: himself up when he's standing up on it. 845 00:42:17,239 --> 00:42:21,000 Speaker 2: What sort of the way the way they surfers, tube 846 00:42:21,120 --> 00:42:23,440 Speaker 2: ride and everything. You need that sort of stability and 847 00:42:23,560 --> 00:42:25,799 Speaker 2: strength and balance because if part of the wave falls 848 00:42:25,840 --> 00:42:27,120 Speaker 2: and hit you on the back of the head where 849 00:42:27,120 --> 00:42:28,960 Speaker 2: you're trying to come out of the barrel, you need 850 00:42:29,040 --> 00:42:31,800 Speaker 2: that strength and sort of almost like a resilience to 851 00:42:32,280 --> 00:42:35,600 Speaker 2: combat that is that you're talking about leg strength strength, 852 00:42:36,120 --> 00:42:39,279 Speaker 2: hip strength strength and the way they do a turn 853 00:42:39,400 --> 00:42:41,360 Speaker 2: to where they wrap the border around the top of 854 00:42:41,440 --> 00:42:43,560 Speaker 2: the wave and come back around. It's a lot of 855 00:42:43,680 --> 00:42:46,799 Speaker 2: leg strength and core. You look at the young guys now, 856 00:42:47,400 --> 00:42:49,560 Speaker 2: they're so thick in the legs and the hips and 857 00:42:49,640 --> 00:42:52,799 Speaker 2: the core. So yeah, we did a lot of strength work, 858 00:42:52,960 --> 00:42:55,320 Speaker 2: like a lot of like and it doesn't have to 859 00:42:55,400 --> 00:42:58,239 Speaker 2: be heavy squats or heavy dead list. We were doing 860 00:42:58,239 --> 00:43:01,360 Speaker 2: a lot of single legs stuff and split squads and 861 00:43:01,680 --> 00:43:04,880 Speaker 2: single leg Romanian dead lifts just to bring that balance 862 00:43:04,920 --> 00:43:08,280 Speaker 2: element into it as well, and that sort of approprioception 863 00:43:08,360 --> 00:43:11,080 Speaker 2: around the uncle, knee and hip where he'd get strong 864 00:43:11,160 --> 00:43:11,960 Speaker 2: in those positions. 865 00:43:12,680 --> 00:43:14,399 Speaker 1: So how did it go with him? 866 00:43:14,480 --> 00:43:15,200 Speaker 2: So did it? 867 00:43:16,160 --> 00:43:19,920 Speaker 1: Did it change his ranking or did it change How 868 00:43:19,960 --> 00:43:21,600 Speaker 1: did you measure it? I guess for a better way. 869 00:43:22,120 --> 00:43:25,759 Speaker 2: It's hard to measure. We just measured it. Like with 870 00:43:25,880 --> 00:43:28,600 Speaker 2: his confidence, how does he feel? He felt unbelievable. Yeah, 871 00:43:28,760 --> 00:43:30,560 Speaker 2: he felt incredible. It was the best he felt in 872 00:43:30,640 --> 00:43:34,480 Speaker 2: his career. So that was that was a big one, 873 00:43:34,760 --> 00:43:37,320 Speaker 2: like how he felt, and it gave him confidence, like 874 00:43:37,400 --> 00:43:39,440 Speaker 2: when you feel when you feel and strong and resilient, 875 00:43:39,680 --> 00:43:40,480 Speaker 2: you feel confident. 876 00:43:40,760 --> 00:43:41,920 Speaker 1: And who did he have to beat? 877 00:43:42,000 --> 00:43:44,520 Speaker 2: Like who was he was up against? It was a 878 00:43:44,600 --> 00:43:46,880 Speaker 2: tough run. You know. He had Kelly Slater in his prime. 879 00:43:47,280 --> 00:43:52,080 Speaker 2: He wanted he had him all through him and Taj 880 00:43:52,200 --> 00:43:55,919 Speaker 2: had a crazy rivalry. He had Andy Eins before Andy 881 00:43:55,960 --> 00:43:58,720 Speaker 2: passed away, and then later on he had Mick and Joel. 882 00:43:59,200 --> 00:44:03,120 Speaker 2: So they were both hum mc fanning and Joel Parkins. 883 00:44:04,040 --> 00:44:07,000 Speaker 2: So they were crazy boys. Yeah, the Bolt of Boys. 884 00:44:07,200 --> 00:44:12,560 Speaker 2: They're rich, rich, rich and retired now but they've Yeah, 885 00:44:12,640 --> 00:44:13,920 Speaker 2: So he had a he had a bit of a 886 00:44:14,000 --> 00:44:16,200 Speaker 2: hard run. Through those through his career. 887 00:44:16,280 --> 00:44:17,000 Speaker 1: But that's the best people. 888 00:44:17,520 --> 00:44:19,400 Speaker 2: Yeah, but that's that's what you want. You want to 889 00:44:19,440 --> 00:44:20,879 Speaker 2: be if you've got to win, you've got to beat 890 00:44:20,920 --> 00:44:21,279 Speaker 2: the best. 891 00:44:21,880 --> 00:44:25,120 Speaker 1: Yeah. So when you're sitting down with him for those 892 00:44:25,200 --> 00:44:28,200 Speaker 1: sevent year period, that sevent year period I'm touring with him, Yeah, 893 00:44:29,320 --> 00:44:33,000 Speaker 1: would you say to him, did any stage you have 894 00:44:33,080 --> 00:44:35,080 Speaker 1: to sort of become his like I don't want to 895 00:44:35,080 --> 00:44:38,440 Speaker 1: call it mentor, but like help him manage his mind. Definitely, 896 00:44:40,400 --> 00:44:42,879 Speaker 1: And I'm not feeling good, I'm going to get there. 897 00:44:44,040 --> 00:44:47,160 Speaker 2: The highs and loads of professional sports are huge. Like 898 00:44:47,280 --> 00:44:49,680 Speaker 2: we'd be on the road for pretty much the whole year. 899 00:44:50,200 --> 00:44:51,880 Speaker 2: So if you if you go for a bit of 900 00:44:51,920 --> 00:44:54,840 Speaker 2: a bad run like loosed early in three events in 901 00:44:54,880 --> 00:44:59,040 Speaker 2: a row, that the whole sort of camp just feels it. 902 00:44:59,280 --> 00:45:02,400 Speaker 2: Like me, him, his girlfriend, everyone feels a pressure to 903 00:45:02,480 --> 00:45:06,319 Speaker 2: start doing well again. So there was there was times 904 00:45:06,320 --> 00:45:07,799 Speaker 2: where I had to sit him down and say, mate, 905 00:45:07,800 --> 00:45:10,279 Speaker 2: what's going on, Like, what's what's going on up here? 906 00:45:10,680 --> 00:45:14,920 Speaker 2: Because physically you're fine. And one thing he would do 907 00:45:15,160 --> 00:45:18,279 Speaker 2: was win an event and be all on a real 908 00:45:18,360 --> 00:45:20,439 Speaker 2: big high and then come into the next event. Because 909 00:45:20,440 --> 00:45:23,160 Speaker 2: you have to learn how to win. So winning winning 910 00:45:23,200 --> 00:45:24,920 Speaker 2: and losing, You've got to learn how to lose. You 911 00:45:25,000 --> 00:45:26,400 Speaker 2: have to learn how to win because you can be 912 00:45:26,480 --> 00:45:28,759 Speaker 2: on this super big high and think I've got this 913 00:45:29,040 --> 00:45:30,960 Speaker 2: and then going to the next event, lose first heat 914 00:45:31,360 --> 00:45:34,120 Speaker 2: and then the whole thing comes crashing down. I feel 915 00:45:34,160 --> 00:45:35,120 Speaker 2: like you've got to start again. 916 00:45:35,320 --> 00:45:38,040 Speaker 1: So what what what do you do about in terms 917 00:45:38,080 --> 00:45:41,520 Speaker 1: of physical exercise for example, that can help you get 918 00:45:41,600 --> 00:45:44,839 Speaker 1: through that weird period? Yeah, do you do is there 919 00:45:44,920 --> 00:45:46,880 Speaker 1: something you would prescribe for him, like in terms of 920 00:45:46,880 --> 00:45:47,640 Speaker 1: physical exercise? 921 00:45:47,920 --> 00:45:50,200 Speaker 2: Yeah, probably give him a good couple of floggins in 922 00:45:50,239 --> 00:45:52,600 Speaker 2: the gym to get it out of him and point, yeah, 923 00:45:52,680 --> 00:45:55,360 Speaker 2: this is what we're here for. Like nothing like competing 924 00:45:55,480 --> 00:45:57,120 Speaker 2: is going to be easy compared to what we're going 925 00:45:57,200 --> 00:45:59,000 Speaker 2: to do in the gym. Make it really, make it 926 00:45:59,200 --> 00:46:03,520 Speaker 2: really hard, Say fuck it, let's go like competing, Like 927 00:46:03,680 --> 00:46:06,160 Speaker 2: you're you're going to look forward to competing after these 928 00:46:06,239 --> 00:46:09,680 Speaker 2: next couple of gym sessions. That's one way we used 929 00:46:09,680 --> 00:46:10,719 Speaker 2: to do it. I don't know if it was a 930 00:46:10,800 --> 00:46:13,680 Speaker 2: perfect way, but that's one way that worked for him. 931 00:46:13,880 --> 00:46:15,640 Speaker 2: It work for him, That worked for him. 932 00:46:15,960 --> 00:46:19,280 Speaker 1: And how does how does he how do you balance 933 00:46:19,320 --> 00:46:22,920 Speaker 1: that up though, Like you're on the surfing you know circuit. 934 00:46:23,520 --> 00:46:26,080 Speaker 1: He had his friend with him, but you're on the 935 00:46:26,080 --> 00:46:31,640 Speaker 1: surfing circuit. Made like surfing is notorious for good times 936 00:46:31,880 --> 00:46:34,680 Speaker 1: and the comps over and you're there with all your 937 00:46:34,719 --> 00:46:40,319 Speaker 1: mates and everybody's doing the best after after parties.

We got it pretty dialed, 999 00:49:31,360 --> 00:49:34,879 Speaker 2: like we'd find the locals, farmers, farmers' markets and we'd 1000 00:49:34,920 --> 00:49:38,040 Speaker 2: stay we're here he we could afford to travel pretty comfortably, 1001 00:49:38,239 --> 00:49:41,279 Speaker 2: like we'd stay in nice places. Well, yeah, he was 1002 00:49:41,360 --> 00:49:45,160 Speaker 2: getting paid a fortune back then, so we could really 1003 00:49:45,280 --> 00:49:48,600 Speaker 2: foc He didn't mind spending the money on keeping the 1004 00:49:48,680 --> 00:49:51,360 Speaker 2: longevity of his career. He was like, I'm all for 1005 00:49:52,000 --> 00:49:55,040 Speaker 2: spent another more few more years on tour than getting 1006 00:49:55,280 --> 00:49:57,799 Speaker 2: to a point where I just fall off tour because 1007 00:49:57,800 --> 00:50:02,239 Speaker 2: I'm either broken or unhealthy or sick. So he didn't 1008 00:50:02,280 --> 00:50:05,520 Speaker 2: mind looking after himself and obviously the cost of me 1009 00:50:05,719 --> 00:50:06,440 Speaker 2: being there as well. 1010 00:50:06,760 --> 00:50:12,040 Speaker 1: You you just mentioned Craig Fitzgibbon, the coach Coronulla. Do 1011 00:50:13,400 --> 00:50:16,600 Speaker 1: do surfers get as broken? They say something like Fitzy, 1012 00:50:16,680 --> 00:50:20,000 Speaker 1: Like fitz he's got lots of injuries from the impact. 1013 00:50:20,360 --> 00:50:21,600 Speaker 1: Do surfers get that sort of thing? 1014 00:50:21,760 --> 00:50:22,279 Speaker 2: Not that bad? 1015 00:50:22,440 --> 00:50:24,360 Speaker 1: They do have. 1016 00:50:24,680 --> 00:50:26,880 Speaker 2: They do hit their hips, the hips, their hips go. 1017 00:50:27,160 --> 00:50:29,680 Speaker 2: A lot of them have had hip hip replacements. It's 1018 00:50:29,719 --> 00:50:32,239 Speaker 2: normally the back hip. Yeah, so it's a back hip 1019 00:50:32,280 --> 00:50:34,480 Speaker 2: the way they drive out of a turn foot that's 1020 00:50:34,520 --> 00:50:36,520 Speaker 2: at the back of back foot, back foot, the back 1021 00:50:36,600 --> 00:50:39,440 Speaker 2: hipp So Ginger has left hips gone because he's good. 1022 00:50:39,840 --> 00:50:45,240 Speaker 2: He's like an old out station. They're both gone. He's sweet. 1023 00:50:45,560 --> 00:50:48,000 Speaker 1: My brother just had hipp version and my brother's on 1024 00:50:48,880 --> 00:50:53,759 Speaker 1: austrains surfing astraight whatever, it's the ginge. My brother's right, 1025 00:50:54,040 --> 00:50:57,480 Speaker 1: he's right, he's a. He's a. He's not a good foot. 1026 00:50:57,600 --> 00:51:00,520 Speaker 1: He just rides a regular surfer in his right foot, 1027 00:51:00,600 --> 00:51:02,719 Speaker 1: right hip, right hip, and he's had his right hip 1028 00:51:02,800 --> 00:51:06,120 Speaker 1: done beginning this year. But now he can't surf a 1029 00:51:06,200 --> 00:51:10,080 Speaker 1: him with his stuff. But that's interesting. I never thought 1030 00:51:10,080 --> 00:51:12,680 Speaker 1: about that because I was thinking myself, he's served on 1031 00:51:12,760 --> 00:51:15,200 Speaker 1: more thannighted. I stopped surfing like it was just too 1032 00:51:15,239 --> 00:51:18,520 Speaker 1: hard to surf locally. I couldn't stand. He kept going, 1033 00:51:19,040 --> 00:51:22,240 Speaker 1: And and you know, I wonder if one of myself 1034 00:51:22,680 --> 00:51:24,239 Speaker 1: is as a genetic, Am I going to get his 1035 00:51:24,320 --> 00:51:25,880 Speaker 1: younger than I? Am? I going to get it in 1036 00:51:25,920 --> 00:51:27,560 Speaker 1: a couple of years time? Thank god? 1037 00:51:27,800 --> 00:51:28,759 Speaker 2: Yeah, now I know what it is. 1038 00:51:28,800 --> 00:51:30,000 Speaker 1: It could be that you're right. 1039 00:51:30,080 --> 00:51:34,160 Speaker 2: It probably was not. I can't say yeah, but that's 1040 00:51:34,200 --> 00:51:36,680 Speaker 2: a that's a big chance. It's his back hip. He's 1041 00:51:36,719 --> 00:51:38,480 Speaker 2: a natural surfer, he's right hip. 1042 00:51:38,640 --> 00:51:38,799 Speaker 1: Yeah. 1043 00:51:38,800 --> 00:51:40,960 Speaker 2: Because you'll notice, I saw a funny thing, is I 1044 00:51:41,040 --> 00:51:43,919 Speaker 2: sat talking about hips. I saw a photo with Taj 1045 00:51:44,040 --> 00:51:48,040 Speaker 2: and Joel Parko they're both natural footers and they're standing together. 1046 00:51:48,600 --> 00:51:51,360 Speaker 2: Their left foot was straight, their right foot was but 1047 00:51:51,480 --> 00:51:53,040 Speaker 2: both of them were standing like that with their right 1048 00:51:53,080 --> 00:51:55,279 Speaker 2: foot like that. So it's all their external rotators at 1049 00:51:55,280 --> 00:51:56,840 Speaker 2: the hip that just drawn. 1050 00:51:56,840 --> 00:51:59,600 Speaker 1: Bottle and get it to you know, because the foot 1051 00:51:59,640 --> 00:52:02,759 Speaker 1: they step back on the back foot the foot the 1052 00:52:02,840 --> 00:52:06,040 Speaker 1: pushing back back and I know those boxes had hip 1053 00:52:06,120 --> 00:52:09,719 Speaker 1: operations on the back foot. Yeah, that's interesting that like 1054 00:52:09,840 --> 00:52:11,360 Speaker 1: if you do it for too long and anything, I 1055 00:52:11,400 --> 00:52:14,160 Speaker 1: guess anything like that. I just want to you mentioned 1056 00:52:14,160 --> 00:52:17,640 Speaker 1: breath work. So I recently took my senior staff up 1057 00:52:17,680 --> 00:52:20,759 Speaker 1: to my farm and doesn't know or something like that, 1058 00:52:21,200 --> 00:52:23,640 Speaker 1: and I bought in a breath work lady because I 1059 00:52:23,719 --> 00:52:25,960 Speaker 1: thought to give them a new experience. I got onto 1060 00:52:26,080 --> 00:52:29,759 Speaker 1: through robber Trent Robinson, and because Trent likes to try 1061 00:52:29,800 --> 00:52:34,000 Speaker 1: different things like this, and and I it was interesting. 1062 00:52:34,920 --> 00:52:38,120 Speaker 1: So basically I just quickly explained to it if I'm wrong, 1063 00:52:38,160 --> 00:52:43,080 Speaker 1: but basically, you breathe in and our three mouth big breaths. 1064 00:52:43,320 --> 00:52:45,040 Speaker 1: But you do it for quite a long time, it 1065 00:52:45,120 --> 00:52:47,640 Speaker 1: doesn't you don't do it ten times we went for 1066 00:52:47,800 --> 00:52:49,480 Speaker 1: I think about forty five minutes or something like that. 1067 00:52:50,040 --> 00:52:54,960 Speaker 1: But the difference between everybody was amazing. Like one person 1068 00:52:55,120 --> 00:52:59,640 Speaker 1: fell asleep, another person actually started to. 1069 00:52:59,640 --> 00:53:02,680 Speaker 2: Cry yep, like people get very emotional. 1070 00:53:04,560 --> 00:53:06,680 Speaker 1: In my case, I got, I felt, I felt really, 1071 00:53:07,640 --> 00:53:11,319 Speaker 1: I got really clear head and I started thinking about 1072 00:53:11,400 --> 00:53:12,960 Speaker 1: things I need to do my business. I got, I 1073 00:53:13,040 --> 00:53:16,120 Speaker 1: got really a hell of a clarity, and I felt 1074 00:53:16,160 --> 00:53:19,719 Speaker 1: quite energized. I felt, I felt good. And everybody had 1075 00:53:19,760 --> 00:53:23,600 Speaker 1: different sort of outcomes and I would never thought so 1076 00:53:23,760 --> 00:53:27,200 Speaker 1: just from breathing in and out. Do you do much 1077 00:53:27,280 --> 00:53:27,719 Speaker 1: of that with. 1078 00:53:27,840 --> 00:53:32,680 Speaker 2: Your Yeah, there's heaps of it. There's some really good 1079 00:53:32,719 --> 00:53:35,719 Speaker 2: breath coaches up there. Yeah, it's unreal, It's I love it. 1080 00:53:36,440 --> 00:53:40,160 Speaker 1: Do you do that's you know, whim half Yeah, guru 1081 00:53:40,239 --> 00:53:40,600 Speaker 1: of it all? 1082 00:53:41,120 --> 00:53:43,960 Speaker 2: Do you do you? I have have done, been to 1083 00:53:44,040 --> 00:53:46,239 Speaker 2: a couple of whim seminars over the years. Yeah, and 1084 00:53:46,360 --> 00:53:48,600 Speaker 2: got in the ice after it, but that was years ago. 1085 00:53:49,280 --> 00:53:54,000 Speaker 2: But I I do, I don't really go. I love 1086 00:53:54,080 --> 00:53:57,600 Speaker 2: it and I go to a beautiful place like free drugs, 1087 00:53:57,640 --> 00:54:01,040 Speaker 2: almost like tearing down the arms, tingling your face, go 1088 00:54:01,200 --> 00:54:03,520 Speaker 2: to a different place. It feels amazing. 1089 00:54:04,680 --> 00:54:06,400 Speaker 1: But I you do it on your own, you do 1090 00:54:06,440 --> 00:54:08,640 Speaker 1: it with a personation through it. 1091 00:54:09,080 --> 00:54:12,560 Speaker 2: I like to be do it guided you get more 1092 00:54:12,600 --> 00:54:13,960 Speaker 2: out of it, I think, because then you don't have 1093 00:54:14,040 --> 00:54:15,920 Speaker 2: to think you're not looking at the stop watch. You've 1094 00:54:15,920 --> 00:54:18,319 Speaker 2: got someone telling you how to do it. I love 1095 00:54:18,800 --> 00:54:22,120 Speaker 2: someone showing me how to do it and different different 1096 00:54:22,680 --> 00:54:25,600 Speaker 2: aspects of it, like you learn from other people, obviously, 1097 00:54:26,520 --> 00:54:28,960 Speaker 2: But yeah, I love it and I get a great 1098 00:54:29,040 --> 00:54:31,880 Speaker 2: experience out of it, and I always feel better than 1099 00:54:31,920 --> 00:54:33,879 Speaker 2: before I started it, feel way better. 1100 00:54:34,080 --> 00:54:38,040 Speaker 1: Yeah. So, and you mentioned meditation. I sort of had 1101 00:54:38,040 --> 00:54:41,880 Speaker 1: a bit of a riview bit, but yeah, just I 1102 00:54:41,960 --> 00:54:43,680 Speaker 1: know there's lots of apps around that you can use. 1103 00:54:45,400 --> 00:54:50,080 Speaker 1: Why is meditation? How is it that it's become so 1104 00:54:51,800 --> 00:54:54,840 Speaker 1: acceptable more accepted? Once upon time it's all about whoo 1105 00:54:54,880 --> 00:54:57,000 Speaker 1: people doing it? They basically up and viron or wherever. 1106 00:54:58,200 --> 00:55:00,000 Speaker 1: Well they're sitting on a mountain and to bed or something, 1107 00:55:01,239 --> 00:55:06,520 Speaker 1: or there are monks, but meditation has form part of it. 1108 00:55:06,640 --> 00:55:08,759 Speaker 1: I do it every day, and even if I need 1109 00:55:08,800 --> 00:55:10,920 Speaker 1: do five minutes, it's okay. And even if I just 1110 00:55:11,480 --> 00:55:13,560 Speaker 1: I can't do it properly, I still try to do 1111 00:55:13,600 --> 00:55:16,520 Speaker 1: it because I think it obviously, But why do you 1112 00:55:16,560 --> 00:55:20,320 Speaker 1: think meditation has become so acceptable today? It's really necessary. 1113 00:55:19,960 --> 00:55:24,439 Speaker 2: Definitely because of mental health. I think there's so much 1114 00:55:24,920 --> 00:55:28,400 Speaker 2: we're so much more aware of mental health these days, 1115 00:55:28,680 --> 00:55:32,200 Speaker 2: and we're so much more like I don't know if 1116 00:55:32,200 --> 00:55:34,120 Speaker 2: there's a lot more of it in society, but where 1117 00:55:34,360 --> 00:55:37,320 Speaker 2: people are more open about speaking about it. So I 1118 00:55:37,400 --> 00:55:40,439 Speaker 2: think it's more acceptable to meditate because if that helps 1119 00:55:40,480 --> 00:55:43,560 Speaker 2: your mental health, then why not accept it. 1120 00:55:43,680 --> 00:55:45,839 Speaker 1: And it's acceptable to have a problem with mental health 1121 00:55:45,960 --> 00:55:48,640 Speaker 1: or recognize you recognize. 1122 00:55:48,040 --> 00:55:50,120 Speaker 2: About it and talk about it and then go and 1123 00:55:50,239 --> 00:55:52,920 Speaker 2: do your whatever it is that suits you, like I've got. 1124 00:55:53,640 --> 00:55:55,719 Speaker 2: You see a lot of online people saying, oh, look 1125 00:55:55,760 --> 00:55:57,759 Speaker 2: at these blokes doing heavy dead list. It's bad for 1126 00:55:57,840 --> 00:56:00,120 Speaker 2: their back. But I know mates that suffer from a 1127 00:56:00,160 --> 00:56:03,120 Speaker 2: little bit of mental healthy're not too bad. But they'll 1128 00:56:03,160 --> 00:56:04,959 Speaker 2: get in the gym, put their headphones on and lift 1129 00:56:05,000 --> 00:56:08,759 Speaker 2: heavy weights, and the mental health they feel so much 1130 00:56:08,800 --> 00:56:11,480 Speaker 2: better when they walk out of the gym. So there's 1131 00:56:11,520 --> 00:56:14,640 Speaker 2: no What I'm saying is there's no right and wrong 1132 00:56:14,719 --> 00:56:17,480 Speaker 2: with what people should be exercising or the way they 1133 00:56:17,600 --> 00:56:19,759 Speaker 2: do things, because they might be doing it for their 1134 00:56:19,800 --> 00:56:22,000 Speaker 2: mental health, that they might have found a way that 1135 00:56:22,200 --> 00:56:25,560 Speaker 2: clears their head and makes them feel resilient when they 1136 00:56:25,640 --> 00:56:29,440 Speaker 2: walk out of whatever they're doing the gym meditation, So 1137 00:56:29,960 --> 00:56:33,440 Speaker 2: why sit there and judge what they're doing when you 1138 00:56:33,520 --> 00:56:35,880 Speaker 2: don't know it could be for their mental health. And 1139 00:56:36,520 --> 00:56:39,000 Speaker 2: that's why that's getting back to the question. That's why 1140 00:56:39,040 --> 00:56:41,520 Speaker 2: I think meditation is so acceptable these days. 1141 00:56:41,800 --> 00:56:46,160 Speaker 1: So in your training programs that you put together for 1142 00:56:46,239 --> 00:56:54,320 Speaker 1: your clients, we've touched on breath work, we've touched on meditation, 1143 00:56:55,719 --> 00:56:59,720 Speaker 1: we've touched on types of exercise. You've talked about sleep, 1144 00:57:00,000 --> 00:57:05,440 Speaker 1: and you talked about nutrition intuition. You have food and 1145 00:57:05,719 --> 00:57:08,080 Speaker 1: hydration really important. Because we talk about doing the right food. 1146 00:57:08,160 --> 00:57:09,800 Speaker 1: You've got to talk about drinking the rent amount of 1147 00:57:09,840 --> 00:57:12,000 Speaker 1: water or whatever the case may be. But whatever it 1148 00:57:12,080 --> 00:57:16,560 Speaker 1: is you're drinking, electrolytes and stuff. That all gets put together. 1149 00:57:18,360 --> 00:57:23,360 Speaker 1: That's a quite a big package for people to digest, 1150 00:57:23,520 --> 00:57:26,800 Speaker 1: especially they're new to this. If it's not their goal, 1151 00:57:27,080 --> 00:57:31,080 Speaker 1: they're fifty a bit able to wait what may be 1152 00:57:31,320 --> 00:57:34,640 Speaker 1: or were maybe the individual is a sports person before 1153 00:57:34,800 --> 00:57:37,800 Speaker 1: it hasn't really done anything. They've gone to the doctor, 1154 00:57:37,840 --> 00:57:39,560 Speaker 1: doctor's done a blood test. They said, listen to your 1155 00:57:39,600 --> 00:57:42,040 Speaker 1: chlestuous to ailh blah blah blah, you're going to lose weight. 1156 00:57:42,240 --> 00:57:44,800 Speaker 1: What did dexter. You know you're out of shape, you've 1157 00:57:44,800 --> 00:57:50,600 Speaker 1: got a bit of visceral fat. Whatever. How did they 1158 00:57:50,640 --> 00:57:52,200 Speaker 1: take it when you first put it to them? Is 1159 00:57:52,240 --> 00:57:52,680 Speaker 1: it a shock? 1160 00:57:52,840 --> 00:57:55,160 Speaker 2: What the way I explained to them, you can say 1161 00:57:55,400 --> 00:57:58,440 Speaker 2: you get this visualization when someone says so. By the 1162 00:57:58,480 --> 00:58:02,560 Speaker 2: way I explain, it's a whole holy stick, wheel, sleep, nutrition, hydration. 1163 00:58:03,080 --> 00:58:05,400 Speaker 2: But everything comes together in a wheel. You take out 1164 00:58:05,440 --> 00:58:07,600 Speaker 2: one of those pieces, the wheel starts to spin a 1165 00:58:07,640 --> 00:58:10,960 Speaker 2: little worse. Take out two, three, the wheel falls apart, 1166 00:58:11,040 --> 00:58:13,360 Speaker 2: spins like shit. So the way I explain it is, 1167 00:58:13,720 --> 00:58:16,600 Speaker 2: don't chase perfection because you're not going to get perfection 1168 00:58:16,720 --> 00:58:20,280 Speaker 2: out of all of those things. Just be good. That's it. 1169 00:58:20,680 --> 00:58:22,800 Speaker 2: Be good at every single one of those things and 1170 00:58:23,000 --> 00:58:25,120 Speaker 2: just try and improve on them a little bit each week. 1171 00:58:25,720 --> 00:58:28,640 Speaker 2: And again. If you go backwards and fall off, it's fine. 1172 00:58:28,880 --> 00:58:31,320 Speaker 2: Just get back on the program and try and do 1173 00:58:31,440 --> 00:58:35,080 Speaker 2: the best you can. But that's going back a bit. 1174 00:58:36,040 --> 00:58:38,480 Speaker 2: As I said, try not to chase perfection because it's 1175 00:58:38,560 --> 00:58:41,480 Speaker 2: not there. And if you try and chase perfection, it'll 1176 00:58:41,520 --> 00:58:43,160 Speaker 2: do your head in and you'll just say fuck it. 1177 00:58:43,240 --> 00:58:44,720 Speaker 2: Oh you stop doing it, You say fuck it, I 1178 00:58:44,760 --> 00:58:47,560 Speaker 2: can't do it. It's too much for me, it's for 1179 00:58:47,680 --> 00:58:49,280 Speaker 2: who the fuck could do this in a week? 1180 00:58:49,480 --> 00:58:49,800 Speaker 1: Totally. 1181 00:58:50,000 --> 00:58:53,200 Speaker 2: Just be good and that's the way to get it, 1182 00:58:53,200 --> 00:58:56,400 Speaker 2: and you'll progress. You'll get on that nice flow state 1183 00:58:56,880 --> 00:58:59,680 Speaker 2: where you're slowly creeping up the hill. You don't want 1184 00:58:59,720 --> 00:59:01,160 Speaker 2: to go up hill a million miles an hour and 1185 00:59:01,280 --> 00:59:04,680 Speaker 2: fall off the hill. But with exercise nutrition, we're looking 1186 00:59:04,720 --> 00:59:09,360 Speaker 2: for longevity. And that's what I try and teach that sustainable, sustainable, 1187 00:59:09,480 --> 00:59:12,080 Speaker 2: one hundred percent. If it's sustainable, you're doing really well. 1188 00:59:12,400 --> 00:59:14,280 Speaker 2: It's not too much, it's not too little, you're not 1189 00:59:14,320 --> 00:59:17,960 Speaker 2: getting bored, you're not falling off off the heel. That's 1190 00:59:18,040 --> 00:59:19,760 Speaker 2: what we're looking for and that's the way I'll explain 1191 00:59:19,800 --> 00:59:20,160 Speaker 2: it to them. 1192 00:59:20,560 --> 00:59:22,800 Speaker 1: So this brings you to the we challenge to something 1193 00:59:22,840 --> 00:59:25,040 Speaker 1: you're just close to your heart. Yep, what's that about, mate? 1194 00:59:25,440 --> 00:59:29,320 Speaker 2: Mate? So going back to Dexascans, I get it. I 1195 00:59:29,400 --> 00:59:31,640 Speaker 2: get So we call them chapters. There's a bit of 1196 00:59:31,680 --> 00:59:34,120 Speaker 2: a g up, So we get chapters. We've got chapters 1197 00:59:34,160 --> 00:59:38,960 Speaker 2: in Rubra Lenox head Byron, chapters of people that come 1198 00:59:39,000 --> 00:59:41,440 Speaker 2: together and train from all walks of life.

That's what set this up. 1202 00:59:50,960 --> 00:59:52,960 Speaker 2: I didn't. I didn't set them up. I set the 1203 00:59:53,000 --> 00:59:55,000 Speaker 2: Gold Coast one up and then I've jumped in on 1204 00:59:55,080 --> 00:59:59,280 Speaker 2: the other chapters. The Lenox chapter, they already they're already 1205 00:59:59,360 --> 01:00:03,360 Speaker 2: going Mruber chapter. They've got ninety people. There's one in 1206 01:00:03,440 --> 01:00:06,040 Speaker 2: Newcastle now. But all these chapters come in and do 1207 01:00:06,280 --> 01:00:07,120 Speaker 2: do my challenge. 1208 01:00:07,440 --> 01:00:08,520 Speaker 1: So you set the challenger. 1209 01:00:09,480 --> 01:00:11,200 Speaker 2: I set the challenge up. Yeah, I set it up. 1210 01:00:11,200 --> 01:00:13,720 Speaker 2: It's all online. So we got one starting on the 1211 01:00:13,760 --> 01:00:16,280 Speaker 2: third of February next year, and that's the big one. 1212 01:00:16,480 --> 01:00:20,440 Speaker 2: It goes for eight weeks no alcohol and doing exactly 1213 01:00:20,520 --> 01:00:23,280 Speaker 2: what we've talked about today, the whole holistic side of health. 1214 01:00:23,720 --> 01:00:26,280 Speaker 2: Good not perfect, Yep, it's just good. 1215 01:00:26,440 --> 01:00:28,560 Speaker 1: Do do you talk to everybody online? 1216 01:00:30,040 --> 01:00:33,080 Speaker 2: I try, and yeah, we've got we've got a WhatsApp, 1217 01:00:33,200 --> 01:00:36,240 Speaker 2: good old WhatsApp good for training for training, So we 1218 01:00:36,800 --> 01:00:39,160 Speaker 2: get we get sort of the last one. We had 1219 01:00:39,200 --> 01:00:43,280 Speaker 2: two hundred people do it. So we've got chefs, other trainers, 1220 01:00:43,360 --> 01:00:45,320 Speaker 2: like I don't know everything. I've got a nutrition us 1221 01:00:45,400 --> 01:00:47,840 Speaker 2: on board because I just wanted to make the nutrition 1222 01:00:48,040 --> 01:00:51,120 Speaker 2: side more professional. So I've got Kelly McDonald who does 1223 01:00:51,400 --> 01:00:54,440 Speaker 2: She's on the same wavelength as nutrition as me, but 1224 01:00:54,600 --> 01:00:56,000 Speaker 2: she's really good at what she does. 1225 01:00:56,880 --> 01:00:59,800 Speaker 1: And she said that, but when you say nutrition, Johnny 1226 01:00:59,920 --> 01:01:02,840 Speaker 1: is amout. She sets up a program what she suggested does. 1227 01:01:03,120 --> 01:01:05,920 Speaker 2: She does food suggestions and then if you want to 1228 01:01:06,000 --> 01:01:08,480 Speaker 2: go into more details, she will you can do a 1229 01:01:08,600 --> 01:01:11,160 Speaker 2: private console. Obviously it costs more money. She will do 1230 01:01:11,240 --> 01:01:15,760 Speaker 2: a private console and set you up and again for sustainability. 1231 01:01:16,000 --> 01:01:18,760 Speaker 2: It's not just because. A funny story about that is 1232 01:01:19,280 --> 01:01:21,760 Speaker 2: the year a few years ago Pat Rafton won the challenge. 1233 01:01:22,520 --> 01:01:24,400 Speaker 1: You know, I don't know him, but I know he's 1234 01:01:24,400 --> 01:01:25,720 Speaker 1: a good mate, engineer. 1235 01:01:25,320 --> 01:01:28,720 Speaker 2: Good good man. And he won the challenge. He smashed everyone. 1236 01:01:28,800 --> 01:01:31,440 Speaker 2: He's still a competitive but he's big, strong like you 1237 01:01:31,520 --> 01:01:35,160 Speaker 2: think you know Ossie legend, and he smashed everyone in 1238 01:01:35,240 --> 01:01:38,720 Speaker 2: the challenge. He lost like four five percent potty fat, 1239 01:01:39,040 --> 01:01:41,439 Speaker 2: put on about four point five percent lean muscle mass, 1240 01:01:41,560 --> 01:01:44,280 Speaker 2: lost half his visceral fat. But he got to the 1241 01:01:44,400 --> 01:01:45,960 Speaker 2: end of the challenge and I spoke to him and said, 1242 01:01:45,960 --> 01:01:48,200 Speaker 2: how do you how you feeling? Pat? He goes, mate, 1243 01:01:50,200 --> 01:01:52,200 Speaker 2: I was hungry the whole time. So he was hungry 1244 01:01:52,240 --> 01:01:54,960 Speaker 2: and angry because he was pretty much not starving himself, 1245 01:01:55,000 --> 01:01:57,600 Speaker 2: but he wasn't eating that many calories. Because he's such 1246 01:01:57,640 --> 01:01:59,840 Speaker 2: a competitor. He wanted to win this thing, and he 1247 01:02:00,160 --> 01:02:03,040 Speaker 2: train till he was almost broken, Like he didn't do 1248 01:02:03,160 --> 01:02:06,280 Speaker 2: my training program, he did his own, and he cooked 1249 01:02:06,320 --> 01:02:08,760 Speaker 2: himself like you were saying, he was absolutely cooked. And 1250 01:02:08,800 --> 01:02:10,560 Speaker 2: he goes, I'm going to have a month off the 1251 01:02:10,600 --> 01:02:12,520 Speaker 2: gym and I'm going to go and eat shit. And 1252 01:02:12,600 --> 01:02:15,560 Speaker 2: I thought to myself, it's not really what the challenge 1253 01:02:15,640 --> 01:02:18,120 Speaker 2: is all about. Like the challenge, I wanted to make 1254 01:02:18,160 --> 01:02:21,240 Speaker 2: it so people can eat and live and train like 1255 01:02:21,280 --> 01:02:24,280 Speaker 2: this for the next five, ten, fifteen, twenty years. So 1256 01:02:24,440 --> 01:02:29,560 Speaker 2: we because that theme of the challenge was just deal 1257 01:02:29,600 --> 01:02:32,560 Speaker 2: with it, So I do a different theme each challenge. 1258 01:02:32,600 --> 01:02:34,720 Speaker 2: That that year was just deal with it, so no 1259 01:02:34,840 --> 01:02:36,480 Speaker 2: matter what comes out, you just deal with it, get it, 1260 01:02:36,560 --> 01:02:39,400 Speaker 2: get it done. And it was a bit everyone took 1261 01:02:39,440 --> 01:02:42,200 Speaker 2: it literally and went overboard on the training and a 1262 01:02:42,320 --> 01:02:46,000 Speaker 2: bit and didn't need enough. So that's when I thought, 1263 01:02:46,040 --> 01:02:48,480 Speaker 2: I'll pull it back. And the next challenge I did 1264 01:02:48,640 --> 01:02:51,880 Speaker 2: was sustainability, Like let's make this, like I just said, 1265 01:02:51,960 --> 01:02:54,880 Speaker 2: five ten, fifteen, twenty years, we can we will quite 1266 01:02:54,960 --> 01:02:58,000 Speaker 2: happily train like that, live the rest life, live this life. 1267 01:02:58,400 --> 01:03:01,640 Speaker 2: And it was a way better challenge people. That's when 1268 01:03:01,680 --> 01:03:04,040 Speaker 2: I started getting a lot of feedback about how how 1269 01:03:05,120 --> 01:03:08,240 Speaker 2: good people felt, not just physically but mentally because they 1270 01:03:08,320 --> 01:03:10,440 Speaker 2: had they knew they could live like that for the 1271 01:03:10,800 --> 01:03:13,000 Speaker 2: for a long period of time. So that's when I 1272 01:03:13,120 --> 01:03:15,320 Speaker 2: was That's when I was thinking, all right, let's let's 1273 01:03:15,360 --> 01:03:18,280 Speaker 2: cut out stress as well. Let's cut out the stress. 1274 01:03:18,320 --> 01:03:20,840 Speaker 2: So that's when I proved through in the meditation side 1275 01:03:20,880 --> 01:03:21,440 Speaker 2: of it as well. 1276 01:03:22,000 --> 01:03:25,920 Speaker 1: So do do do do you sort of direct them 1277 01:03:25,960 --> 01:03:29,440 Speaker 1: to to onund of the meditation apps and just say 1278 01:03:29,480 --> 01:03:31,280 Speaker 1: pick one doesn't really matter, but do you have to 1279 01:03:31,320 --> 01:03:34,480 Speaker 1: fill a format and sort of say okay they do? 1280 01:03:34,480 --> 01:03:36,160 Speaker 1: You keep accountable accountable definitely. 1281 01:03:36,280 --> 01:03:38,480 Speaker 2: So that's why we get the DEXA scan at the start, right, 1282 01:03:38,720 --> 01:03:41,439 Speaker 2: so we get the dexas skiins. Everyone gets two hundred 1283 01:03:41,880 --> 01:03:45,040 Speaker 2: scans coming at me. I'm like, oh god, how am 1284 01:03:45,040 --> 01:03:47,080 Speaker 2: I going to calculate this? Then don't get another two 1285 01:03:47,120 --> 01:03:49,000 Speaker 2: hundred Dexter scans at the end. At the end, but 1286 01:03:49,160 --> 01:03:51,760 Speaker 2: now we've got a system on the on the website, 1287 01:03:51,760 --> 01:03:54,320 Speaker 2: where people can upload their own data so they can 1288 01:03:54,400 --> 01:03:56,320 Speaker 2: log in, they can log in, put their own dexter 1289 01:03:56,360 --> 01:03:59,160 Speaker 2: scan results in and whatever the training can do. Their 1290 01:03:59,280 --> 01:04:01,240 Speaker 2: training is all on the YEP. They can either train 1291 01:04:01,520 --> 01:04:03,480 Speaker 2: do my training program or they can train with their 1292 01:04:03,520 --> 01:04:05,640 Speaker 2: own trainer. So you put a program out to put 1293 01:04:05,640 --> 01:04:07,240 Speaker 2: a program, it's all there is. 1294 01:04:08,040 --> 01:04:09,480 Speaker 1: Do you put in your program every week or is 1295 01:04:09,480 --> 01:04:09,960 Speaker 1: it one program? 1296 01:04:10,840 --> 01:04:13,160 Speaker 2: It's a four week block, so you do one four 1297 01:04:13,200 --> 01:04:15,240 Speaker 2: week you do trained, because I think it takes about 1298 01:04:15,280 --> 01:04:17,960 Speaker 2: four weeks to learn the movements properly, even if you're 1299 01:04:17,960 --> 01:04:20,520 Speaker 2: going back and doing a squat, like just learning how 1300 01:04:20,560 --> 01:04:25,560 Speaker 2: to damn it. It's all on video. It's all everything's there. 1301 01:04:26,360 --> 01:04:29,200 Speaker 2: And then after the four weeks we pretty much change 1302 01:04:29,240 --> 01:04:32,000 Speaker 2: your program because then, like I said, you don't want 1303 01:04:32,000 --> 01:04:34,840 Speaker 2: people to get bored. And some people after four weeks 1304 01:04:35,040 --> 01:04:39,120 Speaker 2: like the FU all right, what's what's next? Four week block? 1305 01:04:39,560 --> 01:04:40,640 Speaker 2: Two four week blocks for. 1306 01:04:40,720 --> 01:04:44,520 Speaker 1: The and then people interacting with each other like can 1307 01:04:44,600 --> 01:04:48,680 Speaker 1: you not compete? But can you sort of not Strava 1308 01:04:48,760 --> 01:04:49,400 Speaker 1: but you. 1309 01:04:49,640 --> 01:04:53,520 Speaker 2: Like, no, it's competitive because we do. Because we do. 1310 01:04:53,920 --> 01:04:56,200 Speaker 2: I get each chapter to compete against each other. So 1311 01:04:56,320 --> 01:04:58,600 Speaker 2: I'll take the So you say we've got ninety blocks 1312 01:04:58,680 --> 01:05:02,760 Speaker 2: or seventy blocks from Ruber, fifty from Lenox, forty from Byron, 1313 01:05:03,000 --> 01:05:05,840 Speaker 2: thirty or forty from where I'm from. We had South Australia, 1314 01:05:05,920 --> 01:05:08,160 Speaker 2: New Zealand jump in and do it, and I'd really 1315 01:05:08,240 --> 01:05:10,480 Speaker 2: like Rural Australia to start jumping on board as well. 1316 01:05:10,880 --> 01:05:14,760 Speaker 2: That's that's a goal. But I take the top five 1317 01:05:14,880 --> 01:05:18,120 Speaker 2: results from each chapter and we add them up. So 1318 01:05:18,640 --> 01:05:22,240 Speaker 2: I think last year Lenox had one. In the year 1319 01:05:22,240 --> 01:05:25,800 Speaker 2: before Byron one, So that's that just makes the chapters 1320 01:05:25,840 --> 01:05:27,960 Speaker 2: a bit more competitive. And then when you've got blokes, 1321 01:05:28,240 --> 01:05:30,320 Speaker 2: say traveling up to the Gold Coast from Sydney, they 1322 01:05:30,360 --> 01:05:32,840 Speaker 2: can jump in and train with our chapter. Vice versa. 1323 01:05:32,920 --> 01:05:35,880 Speaker 1: So do you train if you're in a Chapter's something 1324 01:05:35,920 --> 01:05:40,600 Speaker 1: in the Ruba chapter, do I physically train with these 1325 01:05:40,640 --> 01:05:43,920 Speaker 1: guys like you pick someone's garage or a gym or 1326 01:05:43,960 --> 01:05:45,920 Speaker 1: something of that. That's it, okay, So you actually do. 1327 01:05:46,120 --> 01:05:49,960 Speaker 2: Actually trained together. It creates a community. So you train together, 1328 01:05:50,080 --> 01:05:51,680 Speaker 2: you go and jump in the ocean and all go 1329 01:05:51,760 --> 01:05:55,120 Speaker 2: and have a coffee together, go about your dates. It's 1330 01:05:55,240 --> 01:05:59,080 Speaker 2: a massive community. So we're trying to create a strong, healthy, 1331 01:05:59,200 --> 01:06:02,440 Speaker 2: vibrant community. So these chapters, they all say if they 1332 01:06:02,520 --> 01:06:05,240 Speaker 2: meet three times a week or twice a week, they 1333 01:06:05,320 --> 01:06:07,720 Speaker 2: go and train together and then they can do their 1334 01:06:07,760 --> 01:06:09,959 Speaker 2: own training, or they can put they can get small 1335 01:06:10,040 --> 01:06:13,080 Speaker 2: groups and splinter off and do their weight training that 1336 01:06:13,200 --> 01:06:15,520 Speaker 2: I set out. It just depends where they want to 1337 01:06:15,560 --> 01:06:15,840 Speaker 2: go with it. 1338 01:06:16,000 --> 01:06:17,560 Speaker 1: We know they joint used to have in Bondi and 1339 01:06:17,600 --> 01:06:20,320 Speaker 1: North bond there were just train the garage. 1340 01:06:20,800 --> 01:06:24,320 Speaker 2: The garage them. That's where it all started. Really, yeah, 1341 01:06:24,360 --> 01:06:26,320 Speaker 2: that's where it all started with five guys. I used 1342 01:06:26,360 --> 01:06:29,200 Speaker 2: to train a group of actually small garage, tiny little 1343 01:06:29,200 --> 01:06:31,720 Speaker 2: single garage. That's where we trained for years. And I 1344 01:06:31,840 --> 01:06:33,440 Speaker 2: used to train four guys in there, and I was 1345 01:06:33,520 --> 01:06:36,240 Speaker 2: just looking for something to motivate them. I was like, 1346 01:06:36,360 --> 01:06:38,360 Speaker 2: I was always interested in Dexa scans, and I was like, 1347 01:06:38,400 --> 01:06:40,800 Speaker 2: all right, boys, let's go get a Dexas scan. Not 1348 01:06:40,960 --> 01:06:43,240 Speaker 2: drink alcohol for eight weeks and then we'll get a 1349 01:06:43,280 --> 01:06:45,600 Speaker 2: Dexas scan at the end and see who wins. Like, 1350 01:06:45,720 --> 01:06:48,840 Speaker 2: see who can lose the most, lose the most body fat, 1351 01:06:48,920 --> 01:06:51,120 Speaker 2: put on the most lean muscle mass, and lose the 1352 01:06:51,200 --> 01:06:53,919 Speaker 2: most visceral fat, the important fat, that fat that sits 1353 01:06:53,920 --> 01:06:57,240 Speaker 2: around your belly. So that all those three results we 1354 01:06:57,320 --> 01:06:59,640 Speaker 2: look at and then we sort of did a calculation 1355 01:06:59,680 --> 01:07:01,400 Speaker 2: at the end and see who wins. 1356 01:07:02,040 --> 01:07:04,120 Speaker 1: Has it done anything for mental health? 1357 01:07:04,480 --> 01:07:07,720 Speaker 2: Definitely. I didn't set out to do that, to be honest, like, 1358 01:07:07,800 --> 01:07:10,280 Speaker 2: I didn't set out for it to be a I've 1359 01:07:10,320 --> 01:07:12,280 Speaker 2: set it out to be more of a physical challenge. 1360 01:07:12,640 --> 01:07:14,480 Speaker 2: But the amount of people that bring me after it 1361 01:07:14,520 --> 01:07:17,920 Speaker 2: and say, mate, my mental health, I didn't realize that 1362 01:07:18,080 --> 01:07:23,120 Speaker 2: I was in a rut. They're not like obviously, they're 1363 01:07:23,160 --> 01:07:27,360 Speaker 2: not like in a bad state of mental health. Yeah, 1364 01:07:27,400 --> 01:07:30,920 Speaker 2: but they drink. They're just over drinking alcohol and using 1365 01:07:30,960 --> 01:07:32,960 Speaker 2: that as a bit of a masking agent for their 1366 01:07:33,240 --> 01:07:36,800 Speaker 2: whatever they're going through, stress at work, financial stress. And 1367 01:07:36,920 --> 01:07:40,240 Speaker 2: then at the end they go, mate, might not only 1368 01:07:40,320 --> 01:07:43,680 Speaker 2: feel physically better, but I feel mentally better. So that's 1369 01:07:43,720 --> 01:07:46,200 Speaker 2: a big that was massive to hear that off a 1370 01:07:46,320 --> 01:07:46,840 Speaker 2: lot of people. 1371 01:07:47,040 --> 01:07:49,320 Speaker 1: How many how many people, let's say, so you do it, 1372 01:07:49,400 --> 01:07:49,960 Speaker 1: how many times you? 1373 01:07:50,480 --> 01:07:54,200 Speaker 2: I did it twice last year, but this one I 1374 01:07:54,760 --> 01:07:57,200 Speaker 2: don't know. Last year at this at the same time 1375 01:07:57,240 --> 01:07:58,800 Speaker 2: of a year, I got two hundred people doing it. 1376 01:07:59,480 --> 01:08:01,440 Speaker 2: I'd like to get four or five hundred. 1377 01:08:02,480 --> 01:08:04,600 Speaker 1: If someone's build a chapter set up a chapter, Set 1378 01:08:04,680 --> 01:08:05,880 Speaker 1: up a chapter. How do they do it? 1379 01:08:06,640 --> 01:08:08,320 Speaker 2: They just get a group of small group of people 1380 01:08:08,360 --> 01:08:11,800 Speaker 2: from the local community, pick two mornings, just meet either 1381 01:08:11,880 --> 01:08:13,640 Speaker 2: down the beach or at a local gym or at 1382 01:08:13,680 --> 01:08:16,880 Speaker 2: someone's place, and you just people gravitate towards it. They 1383 01:08:16,960 --> 01:08:20,120 Speaker 2: hear about it, start a thread. Like I said before, 1384 01:08:20,200 --> 01:08:22,960 Speaker 2: the threads are the best thing for group training because 1385 01:08:22,960 --> 01:08:25,280 Speaker 2: you can send out one quick message and everyone's on it. 1386 01:08:25,680 --> 01:08:29,000 Speaker 2: Everyone supports each other. A bit of a note dickhead policy. 1387 01:08:30,320 --> 01:08:32,560 Speaker 1: And how do they register? Though? With the APE, we 1388 01:08:32,720 --> 01:08:34,439 Speaker 1: challenges like you have to go register yourself. 1389 01:08:34,520 --> 01:08:39,080 Speaker 2: Yeah, when that time comes around in February, you jump on. 1390 01:08:39,160 --> 01:08:40,960 Speaker 2: It costs two hundred and fifty bucks to do the 1391 01:08:41,040 --> 01:08:43,439 Speaker 2: challenge and then you pay for your own two dex 1392 01:08:43,520 --> 01:08:45,760 Speaker 2: of scans. There are one hundred dollars each year. It 1393 01:08:45,840 --> 01:08:47,600 Speaker 2: cost four hundred and fifty bucks all up to do 1394 01:08:47,720 --> 01:08:51,360 Speaker 2: the challenge. But you like, if you're a drinker, you'll 1395 01:08:51,400 --> 01:08:54,760 Speaker 2: save that money in two or three weeks a couple 1396 01:08:54,800 --> 01:08:55,200 Speaker 2: of nights. 1397 01:08:56,080 --> 01:08:58,600 Speaker 1: Yeah, so that's how many have you been doing this? 1398 01:08:58,760 --> 01:09:01,360 Speaker 1: Because I mean I remember you it's about six years 1399 01:09:02,200 --> 01:09:05,280 Speaker 1: seven bond longer than that though, Yeah, that's. 1400 01:09:05,760 --> 01:09:08,519 Speaker 2: I've been training in Bondi around those places for years. 1401 01:09:08,640 --> 01:09:12,240 Speaker 2: But I think we're up to about challenge number seven 1402 01:09:12,400 --> 01:09:12,960 Speaker 2: coming out. 1403 01:09:12,880 --> 01:09:16,439 Speaker 1: Number seven And why do you do it? It's not 1404 01:09:16,520 --> 01:09:18,840 Speaker 1: for money making, so why are you doing way John 1405 01:09:18,880 --> 01:09:19,400 Speaker 1: Gannon doing it? 1406 01:09:20,040 --> 01:09:23,880 Speaker 2: I really enjoy just seeing people come together in a 1407 01:09:23,920 --> 01:09:27,920 Speaker 2: community and go have each other's backs. Where like even 1408 01:09:27,960 --> 01:09:30,240 Speaker 2: when the floods were on, like up in twenty two, 1409 01:09:30,280 --> 01:09:33,280 Speaker 2: when the floods were on it is more and all 1410 01:09:33,360 --> 01:09:36,639 Speaker 2: around the down towards Lenox and all around the back 1411 01:09:36,680 --> 01:09:39,320 Speaker 2: of Lenox Head, New Brighton and all those places, it 1412 01:09:39,439 --> 01:09:41,960 Speaker 2: was the local community that got up and saved people 1413 01:09:42,600 --> 01:09:44,840 Speaker 2: and help people out. There was no one else for 1414 01:09:44,960 --> 01:09:47,880 Speaker 2: four days. It was the boys on their jet skis 1415 01:09:47,880 --> 01:09:50,360 Speaker 2: and in Tinney's the women were on the boat ramps. 1416 01:09:51,200 --> 01:09:54,920 Speaker 2: Like local businesses were bringing down jerry cans full of fuel, 1417 01:09:55,320 --> 01:09:58,599 Speaker 2: they're bringing down generators that everyone just come together as 1418 01:09:58,600 --> 01:10:02,920 Speaker 2: a community and sorted it out. But there's like without that, 1419 01:10:04,200 --> 01:10:06,040 Speaker 2: those people were in all sorts of trouble. 1420 01:10:06,160 --> 01:10:10,880 Speaker 1: I remember hearing a story that mid Fanning contract contacted 1421 01:10:11,080 --> 01:10:17,559 Speaker 1: Musk and got the got the Starlight Starlink Starlink Starling 1422 01:10:18,000 --> 01:10:21,639 Speaker 1: services and for people Lis. 1423 01:10:21,560 --> 01:10:24,599 Speaker 2: More people and there's more and all around the back. 1424 01:10:24,439 --> 01:10:27,840 Speaker 1: Of Woodell and all those Ye war that was really good. 1425 01:10:27,920 --> 01:10:29,679 Speaker 2: That was bad mate. They were stuck. They were stuck 1426 01:10:29,680 --> 01:10:32,200 Speaker 2: in their roof cavities for four days. Yeah, no phone, 1427 01:10:32,320 --> 01:10:34,040 Speaker 2: no food, no water, no nothing, and. 1428 01:10:34,120 --> 01:10:36,360 Speaker 1: Never is closed down because an internet needs cable and. 1429 01:10:36,400 --> 01:10:38,360 Speaker 2: You couldn't get there. You could only get there by 1430 01:10:38,400 --> 01:10:39,240 Speaker 2: boat or jet. Scared. 1431 01:10:39,280 --> 01:10:40,920 Speaker 1: You know, it's interesting off the back of that that 1432 01:10:41,080 --> 01:10:45,680 Speaker 1: might join up there. And I thought, you know, I've 1433 01:10:45,720 --> 01:10:50,280 Speaker 1: got I had, you know, some other internet service. I 1434 01:10:50,320 --> 01:10:53,240 Speaker 1: won't see which one, And I thought, stuff that I'm 1435 01:10:53,240 --> 01:10:56,080 Speaker 1: going to support starlink. So I got Starlink on the 1436 01:10:56,120 --> 01:10:58,840 Speaker 1: two houses just just because of what McK fanning did. 1437 01:10:59,360 --> 01:11:02,000 Speaker 1: I thought I would reward made any difference and stuff, 1438 01:11:02,120 --> 01:11:03,720 Speaker 1: but I thought it would make it. I thought, no, no, 1439 01:11:03,800 --> 01:11:05,639 Speaker 1: I'll make it. My decisions on going with that brand 1440 01:11:06,600 --> 01:11:08,280 Speaker 1: was at the time it was a few years. It 1441 01:11:08,320 --> 01:11:10,439 Speaker 1: was a bit more expensive because I had to buy 1442 01:11:10,520 --> 01:11:14,120 Speaker 1: the kid much super now but great, by the way, 1443 01:11:14,720 --> 01:11:18,840 Speaker 1: unbelievable service that stunting like. I never get downtime like 1444 01:11:19,000 --> 01:11:22,080 Speaker 1: even when like last weekend it was like belting down, 1445 01:11:22,479 --> 01:11:24,160 Speaker 1: it was still I still was still finding that my 1446 01:11:24,280 --> 01:11:26,040 Speaker 1: dish is still finding the satellite. And it was and 1447 01:11:26,120 --> 01:11:28,559 Speaker 1: it was perfect. I mean I had like a little blit, 1448 01:11:28,640 --> 01:11:31,000 Speaker 1: but it was heavy duty weather. And that's off the 1449 01:11:31,040 --> 01:11:33,560 Speaker 1: back of something to someone like Mick Fanning doing what 1450 01:11:33,680 --> 01:11:35,040 Speaker 1: he did, and it was just me. It was a 1451 01:11:35,040 --> 01:11:36,840 Speaker 1: whole lot of other blokes. There was a big gang 1452 01:11:36,880 --> 01:11:40,280 Speaker 1: of them, and they're the sorts of people who were 1453 01:11:40,320 --> 01:11:41,559 Speaker 1: doing this. We challenge. 1454 01:11:41,720 --> 01:11:44,240 Speaker 2: That's it. That's what I want to create, like strong communities. 1455 01:11:44,600 --> 01:11:46,800 Speaker 2: But when the ship does hit the fan, like even 1456 01:11:46,880 --> 01:11:48,920 Speaker 2: little things that happened that we don't even know about, 1457 01:11:49,000 --> 01:11:52,360 Speaker 2: like someone's kid sick, that that group of people go 1458 01:11:52,520 --> 01:11:56,120 Speaker 2: into a fundrate like anything like that, just to create 1459 01:11:56,439 --> 01:11:59,799 Speaker 2: like because I think that's what we're lacking, like a strong, healthy, 1460 01:12:00,120 --> 01:12:05,760 Speaker 2: vibrant communities. Especially after COVID we realized how social people 1461 01:12:05,840 --> 01:12:09,120 Speaker 2: are as well. So now we've got our social life back. 1462 01:12:09,760 --> 01:12:11,240 Speaker 2: We don't have to go to the pub and drink 1463 01:12:11,280 --> 01:12:14,679 Speaker 2: ten schooners and write yourself off and just talk shit 1464 01:12:14,720 --> 01:12:16,280 Speaker 2: and you don't even remember what your mate said to you. 1465 01:12:16,280 --> 01:12:18,320 Speaker 1: Anyway, if you do, you just repeating shit you've been 1466 01:12:18,920 --> 01:12:19,200 Speaker 1: other time. 1467 01:12:19,280 --> 01:12:22,679 Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, it's the same shit.
