So TYP started when 10 00:00:29,160 --> 00:00:31,240 Speaker 3: little Frankie was zero. 11 00:00:31,480 --> 00:00:33,159 Speaker 2: So yeah, maybe a couple of times are here? 12 00:00:33,960 --> 00:00:37,400 Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, probably a dozen or so. Anyway, enough of that. 13 00:00:37,440 --> 00:00:40,800 Speaker 1: People don't need the fucking typ stats. Nobody's tuning in 14 00:00:40,840 --> 00:00:41,080 Speaker 1: for that. 15 00:00:42,320 --> 00:00:42,559 Speaker 3: Are you? 16 00:00:43,120 --> 00:00:43,600 Speaker 1: How are you? 17 00:00:44,159 --> 00:00:45,120 Speaker 2: I'm good?

Maybe i've asked you this, 21 00:00:55,680 --> 00:00:58,240 Speaker 1: but I've never asked you on air, and this is 22 00:00:58,840 --> 00:01:01,279 Speaker 1: was not part of my intent the conversation. But then, 23 00:01:01,320 --> 00:01:03,600 Speaker 1: do I really have a plan? We all know that 24 00:01:04,800 --> 00:01:08,560 Speaker 1: what is the etymology or what is the genesis story 25 00:01:08,800 --> 00:01:11,720 Speaker 1: of your name? Because a few people have asked me, 26 00:01:11,760 --> 00:01:14,720 Speaker 1: and I go, I don't fucking know and know everyone 27 00:01:14,720 --> 00:01:18,080 Speaker 1: who name's not Anna it's Anna. With you, it's Anna. 28 00:01:18,200 --> 00:01:20,200 Speaker 1: What is the origin story of your name? 29 00:01:21,280 --> 00:01:25,520 Speaker 3: So as I understand it, my mother liked the pronunciation 30 00:01:25,880 --> 00:01:29,160 Speaker 3: of like the old English way of saying Anna, which 31 00:01:29,280 --> 00:01:32,720 Speaker 3: was Anna, and I think some European countries have like yuna, 32 00:01:32,840 --> 00:01:36,240 Speaker 3: which is like just one n. So her way of 33 00:01:36,520 --> 00:01:39,920 Speaker 3: getting that was to change the spelling of Anna so 34 00:01:40,000 --> 00:01:42,720 Speaker 3: that I didn't get called Anna. 35 00:01:43,080 --> 00:01:48,480 Speaker 2: So she changed it to you double na and then yeah. Now, 36 00:01:48,800 --> 00:01:49,880 Speaker 2: or when I. 37 00:01:49,800 --> 00:01:52,800 Speaker 3: Was a kid's doing competitive swimming and stuff like that, 38 00:01:52,840 --> 00:01:56,120 Speaker 3: I'd get uner and una and all the other versions, 39 00:01:56,120 --> 00:01:58,040 Speaker 3: and you'd just kind of cop it for a little bit. 40 00:01:59,000 --> 00:02:01,840 Speaker 3: But yeah, now in my older age, I correct people 41 00:02:02,000 --> 00:02:05,360 Speaker 3: as soon as possible.

I think probably along 75 00:03:50,080 --> 00:03:53,240 Speaker 3: the lines with me also standing up and advocating for 76 00:03:53,280 --> 00:03:56,040 Speaker 3: how to say it correctly helped, but it was super 77 00:03:56,080 --> 00:03:58,720 Speaker 3: embarrassing when you'd stand on the blocks or you get 78 00:03:58,720 --> 00:04:02,400 Speaker 3: called out for marshaling for sports and things, and they 79 00:04:02,440 --> 00:04:04,600 Speaker 3: would say like you know, or owner, and it would 80 00:04:04,640 --> 00:04:08,680 Speaker 3: feel embarrassing because it sounded I guess it just sounded 81 00:04:08,680 --> 00:04:13,040 Speaker 3: wrong because if someone else introduced themselves as owner, I 82 00:04:13,080 --> 00:04:14,880 Speaker 3: wouldn't be like, oh, what a stupid name. 83 00:04:14,920 --> 00:04:16,400 Speaker 2: I'd be to be like, I. 84 00:04:16,320 --> 00:04:18,360 Speaker 3: Guess I'm hearing it going, that's not how you say 85 00:04:18,400 --> 00:04:19,960 Speaker 3: my name. So that was the irritation. 86 00:04:20,640 --> 00:04:23,000 Speaker 1: The fact to me that there's two ends not one 87 00:04:23,400 --> 00:04:27,960 Speaker 1: kind of for me, that's pretty self explanatory, you know, 88 00:04:28,040 --> 00:04:32,839 Speaker 1: it's like, anyway, that's enough. Hey, somebody said to me today. 89 00:04:34,800 --> 00:04:38,039 Speaker 1: I told them that I've I have a guy who 90 00:04:38,040 --> 00:04:42,560 Speaker 1: works with my dad who's an excise physiologist and he's awesome. 91 00:04:45,160 --> 00:04:48,840 Speaker 1: I and they said, what is an excise physiologist? And 92 00:04:48,880 --> 00:04:51,200 Speaker 1: so I explained to them, but why don't you like, 93 00:04:51,320 --> 00:04:55,680 Speaker 1: what's the difference between And we're not we're not judging here, 94 00:04:55,680 --> 00:05:01,960 Speaker 1: We're just clarifying what's the difference between a gym instructor, 95 00:05:02,160 --> 00:05:07,160 Speaker 1: a personal trainer, and an AP Like what's the role? Firstly, 96 00:05:07,160 --> 00:05:09,880 Speaker 1: how do you become an ap and what's the role of. 97 00:05:09,800 --> 00:05:15,080 Speaker 3: An ap Okay, so in back in our day, back 98 00:05:15,120 --> 00:05:19,720 Speaker 3: in the day, back in our day, and it's not 99 00:05:20,560 --> 00:05:23,400 Speaker 3: it's in the last couple of years it's changed. But 100 00:05:23,640 --> 00:05:26,080 Speaker 3: back in our day, you had to do an undergraduate 101 00:05:26,120 --> 00:05:29,880 Speaker 3: degree in exercise science to then be able to do 102 00:05:30,160 --> 00:05:34,520 Speaker 3: apply to do a masters in exercise rehab and then 103 00:05:34,640 --> 00:05:38,280 Speaker 3: after you'd finished that, you could apply to become an 104 00:05:38,320 --> 00:05:42,720 Speaker 3: exercise physiologist through an accredited body and but you had 105 00:05:42,760 --> 00:05:44,640 Speaker 3: to kind of jump through all of those hoops, which 106 00:05:44,680 --> 00:05:47,720 Speaker 3: is a little bit different to you know, someone that 107 00:05:47,800 --> 00:05:50,640 Speaker 3: at that stage would go in and they would do 108 00:05:50,839 --> 00:05:53,680 Speaker 3: physio as the course and they exit as a physio 109 00:05:53,760 --> 00:05:58,400 Speaker 3: qualified and no more hoops to jump. Then now that 110 00:05:58,400 --> 00:06:01,400 Speaker 3: that exists as a master course where you finish it 111 00:06:01,480 --> 00:06:03,640 Speaker 3: and you are qualified at the end of it, but 112 00:06:03,680 --> 00:06:05,920 Speaker 3: there was just a few more hoops to jump when 113 00:06:05,920 --> 00:06:11,359 Speaker 3: we're going through. And our role within the Allied Health 114 00:06:11,400 --> 00:06:18,000 Speaker 3: world is to understand the physiology of movement and how 115 00:06:18,040 --> 00:06:21,239 Speaker 3: it affects the body, or exercise and how it affects 116 00:06:21,279 --> 00:06:27,479 Speaker 3: the body, and then secondary to that is the physiology 117 00:06:27,880 --> 00:06:34,440 Speaker 3: of diseases and how applying exercise will either support someone's treatment, 118 00:06:34,640 --> 00:06:38,440 Speaker 3: so help their treatment to be more effective or to 119 00:06:40,000 --> 00:06:47,080 Speaker 3: avoid particular progressions of diseases and disease processes, or specifically 120 00:06:47,240 --> 00:06:50,600 Speaker 3: like rehab, or there might have been someone's had an amputation, 121 00:06:50,880 --> 00:06:54,119 Speaker 3: or they've had a spinal cord injury and they're needing 122 00:06:54,200 --> 00:06:57,960 Speaker 3: to become strong enough and understand all the intricacies of 123 00:06:58,040 --> 00:07:00,960 Speaker 3: changes in physiology when you've had a final cord injury 124 00:07:01,279 --> 00:07:04,040 Speaker 3: and what that means to be able to stay healthy 125 00:07:04,080 --> 00:07:05,880 Speaker 3: in how to work with that person in a really 126 00:07:05,920 --> 00:07:06,480 Speaker 3: safe way. 127 00:07:07,600 --> 00:07:10,240 Speaker 1: It's such an interesting concept, isn't it When you think 128 00:07:10,320 --> 00:07:13,840 Speaker 1: about like when we think about drugs and we think 129 00:07:13,880 --> 00:07:17,200 Speaker 1: about a prescription and we think about a dose generally, 130 00:07:17,200 --> 00:07:19,880 Speaker 1: when we for the average person, when you talk about, oh, 131 00:07:20,280 --> 00:07:22,520 Speaker 1: I need to get a new prescription or a new script, 132 00:07:22,760 --> 00:07:28,320 Speaker 1: which it gets abbreviated to, we're always thinking of drugs, tablets, pills, powders, potions, right, 133 00:07:28,800 --> 00:07:30,680 Speaker 1: something that we go and get from a pharmacy and 134 00:07:30,680 --> 00:07:35,360 Speaker 1: we get prescribed by a doctor. But people like you 135 00:07:35,480 --> 00:07:42,080 Speaker 1: prescribe exercise right literally as a prescription based on you know, 136 00:07:42,240 --> 00:07:46,480 Speaker 1: similar things, and I think what we need doctors and 137 00:07:46,520 --> 00:07:49,440 Speaker 1: doctors are amazing, So this is no dis on doctors. 138 00:07:49,480 --> 00:07:54,520 Speaker 1: Doctors are brilliant, but doctors have zero training and exercise prescription, right, 139 00:07:55,320 --> 00:07:58,600 Speaker 1: and that's not meant to be their job anyway. Which 140 00:07:58,640 --> 00:08:02,160 Speaker 1: doesn't mean they should suggest that you exercise or whatever. 141 00:08:02,160 --> 00:08:04,760 Speaker 1: But I don't think, you know, so somebody like you 142 00:08:04,840 --> 00:08:08,240 Speaker 1: has to do five years of training, you know, one 143 00:08:08,320 --> 00:08:13,480 Speaker 1: short of medicine to be able to prescribe exercise. And 144 00:08:13,520 --> 00:08:19,320 Speaker 1: I wonder how often And this is no fucking revelatory statement. 145 00:08:19,400 --> 00:08:22,880 Speaker 1: It's not like this is groundbreaking concept, but I wonder 146 00:08:22,920 --> 00:08:26,840 Speaker 1: how often people could avoid drugs if they were prescribed 147 00:08:26,960 --> 00:08:30,920 Speaker 1: and exercise intervention and actually did it properly. I mean, 148 00:08:31,000 --> 00:08:34,200 Speaker 1: I know there's no way to quantify that, you know, 149 00:08:34,320 --> 00:08:36,319 Speaker 1: but what are your thoughts around that idea? 150 00:08:37,360 --> 00:08:41,600 Speaker 3: Yeah, I think it's as tricky as you're implying, because 151 00:08:41,720 --> 00:08:45,400 Speaker 3: I guess one of the catchphrases is exercise is medicine, 152 00:08:45,640 --> 00:08:49,760 Speaker 3: and that there's what's that phrase? It was quite popular 153 00:08:50,320 --> 00:08:52,520 Speaker 3: a few years ago. It said if they if we 154 00:08:52,600 --> 00:08:58,920 Speaker 3: could bottle what exercise does for health and distribute it 155 00:08:58,960 --> 00:09:02,480 Speaker 3: as a pill, we'd be rich. Like that would be 156 00:09:02,760 --> 00:09:07,040 Speaker 3: the one pill that people, yeah, would take and it 157 00:09:07,080 --> 00:09:12,280 Speaker 3: would fix lots and lots of problems. The challenge being well, 158 00:09:12,320 --> 00:09:16,440 Speaker 3: even some people have trouble remembering or committing to taking 159 00:09:16,440 --> 00:09:20,440 Speaker 3: a tablet as well, but even more so or a 160 00:09:20,520 --> 00:09:27,600 Speaker 3: thousandfold trickier for humans to commit to doing exercise as 161 00:09:27,640 --> 00:09:31,720 Speaker 3: something that they know will improve their health. You know, 162 00:09:31,800 --> 00:09:34,520 Speaker 3: they might say, yes, I would like to be stronger, 163 00:09:34,640 --> 00:09:38,440 Speaker 3: or yes, I would like to feel more energized, but 164 00:09:38,559 --> 00:09:42,000 Speaker 3: the cost of actually doing what's required is the huge 165 00:09:42,080 --> 00:09:46,000 Speaker 3: hurdle that most humans aren't willing willing to participate, or 166 00:09:46,000 --> 00:09:47,720 Speaker 3: they only do it for a small amount of time 167 00:09:47,800 --> 00:09:51,320 Speaker 3: and then you know, life gets distracting or any of 168 00:09:51,320 --> 00:09:54,760 Speaker 3: those things that fall into the real tricky trouble. 169 00:09:54,720 --> 00:09:55,640 Speaker 2: Of being a human. 170 00:09:55,760 --> 00:09:59,640 Speaker 3: And I learned that the hardest when I worked in 171 00:10:01,080 --> 00:10:06,680 Speaker 3: a research project that looked at ICU survivors and yeah, 172 00:10:06,720 --> 00:10:11,600 Speaker 3: they quite literally survived death, and the project was looking 173 00:10:11,720 --> 00:10:17,320 Speaker 3: at a particular exercise regimen to help them avoid particular 174 00:10:18,120 --> 00:10:24,360 Speaker 3: health issues that come after surviving ICU. And to us, 175 00:10:24,800 --> 00:10:27,480 Speaker 3: as the researchers have excited, this is this is what 176 00:10:27,520 --> 00:10:30,840 Speaker 3: we expect to happen, and it'll be easy, right because 177 00:10:30,880 --> 00:10:32,800 Speaker 3: you know, these people will be so grateful to be 178 00:10:32,920 --> 00:10:37,559 Speaker 3: part of a research project where they get this for free, 179 00:10:38,400 --> 00:10:42,280 Speaker 3: and the biggest challenge we had, by far, the hugest 180 00:10:42,360 --> 00:10:46,440 Speaker 3: challenge we had, was getting people to participate after their 181 00:10:46,559 --> 00:10:51,040 Speaker 3: left hospital, so coming back and being part of that 182 00:10:51,120 --> 00:10:57,480 Speaker 3: final little stretch of exercise, prescription and support. That was 183 00:10:57,520 --> 00:10:59,719 Speaker 3: where it became really really tricky to see through to 184 00:10:59,720 --> 00:11:01,240 Speaker 3: the end of the research piece. 185 00:11:01,920 --> 00:11:05,880 Speaker 1: I call it the compliance conundrum. It's like, you know, 186 00:11:07,120 --> 00:11:10,640 Speaker 1: people are so good, if well, not so good, but 187 00:11:10,679 --> 00:11:12,800 Speaker 1: they're considerably better if they're in the middle of a 188 00:11:12,840 --> 00:11:18,000 Speaker 1: program and someone's there and someone's kind of poking, prodding, supporting. 189 00:11:18,200 --> 00:11:20,920 Speaker 3: Literally walking to bedside and going, hey, we're going to 190 00:11:21,000 --> 00:11:21,480 Speaker 3: do it now. 191 00:11:22,080 --> 00:11:22,400 Speaker 1: Yes. 192 00:11:22,960 --> 00:11:25,240 Speaker 3: So but it was a huge eye opener for me 193 00:11:25,280 --> 00:11:29,800 Speaker 3: because I was only what maybe three years out of 194 00:11:30,120 --> 00:11:33,040 Speaker 3: Masters and working in a hospital system at that stage, 195 00:11:33,360 --> 00:11:35,439 Speaker 3: and that blew my mind. 196 00:11:35,520 --> 00:11:37,040 Speaker 2: I was like, like. 197 00:11:37,440 --> 00:11:40,320 Speaker 3: You know, just to give young chicken and thinking that 198 00:11:41,000 --> 00:11:45,000 Speaker 3: everyone wanted fantastic health and everyone must love exercise as 199 00:11:45,080 --> 00:11:48,360 Speaker 3: much as I do. So it was I was very 200 00:11:48,400 --> 00:11:52,120 Speaker 3: thankful to get that big, hard learning lesson and a 201 00:11:52,160 --> 00:11:55,240 Speaker 3: decent slap in the face about what human behavior and 202 00:11:55,280 --> 00:11:58,640 Speaker 3: health is about so early on in my career. 203 00:12:00,120 --> 00:12:04,120 Speaker 1: Again, there's a concept which I've spoken about too much lately, 204 00:12:04,160 --> 00:12:08,160 Speaker 1: I'll try not to in psychology called false consensus effect. 205 00:12:08,200 --> 00:12:10,439 Speaker 1: And that is what you just said, where you thought, oh, 206 00:12:10,480 --> 00:12:14,160 Speaker 1: everybody must love exercise, like why wouldn't you? It's so good? 207 00:12:14,200 --> 00:12:16,600 Speaker 1: You know. It's like when you think that people will 208 00:12:16,640 --> 00:12:20,320 Speaker 1: think like you, yeah, you know where and as you 209 00:12:20,559 --> 00:12:24,040 Speaker 1: now know well and truly like I you know, when 210 00:12:24,040 --> 00:12:26,280 Speaker 1: I was young and dumb, I'm still dumb, but I'm 211 00:12:26,280 --> 00:12:29,920 Speaker 1: old and dumb. But when I was young and dumb er, yeah, 212 00:12:29,960 --> 00:12:31,880 Speaker 1: I was the same. I'm like, oh, well, once they 213 00:12:31,920 --> 00:12:33,920 Speaker 1: know that this can do that, well, they're going to 214 00:12:33,960 --> 00:12:38,080 Speaker 1: be on board. For people, I'm like, well, why wouldn't you? 215 00:12:38,160 --> 00:12:40,960 Speaker 1: This is probably going to take you out of diabetes, 216 00:12:41,120 --> 00:12:43,520 Speaker 1: like because you're a type two diabetic and we can 217 00:12:43,559 --> 00:12:45,320 Speaker 1: do this and that, and that's probably going to give 218 00:12:45,320 --> 00:12:48,680 Speaker 1: you a big chances of switching that off and da 219 00:12:48,800 --> 00:12:51,280 Speaker 1: da da da. And it's like and then there's this 220 00:12:51,400 --> 00:12:54,160 Speaker 1: other component that you don't really think of because you're 221 00:12:54,160 --> 00:12:58,360 Speaker 1: looking through your eyes and you're thinking through your kind 222 00:12:58,400 --> 00:13:05,120 Speaker 1: of cognitive processes, right whereas oh, by the way, oh 223 00:13:05,160 --> 00:13:06,920 Speaker 1: the stuff that you need to do is not fun 224 00:13:07,000 --> 00:13:09,840 Speaker 1: quick as easy or painless. Oh, there's that, you know, 225 00:13:09,920 --> 00:13:12,720 Speaker 1: and also you kind of keep you have to keep 226 00:13:12,760 --> 00:13:16,839 Speaker 1: doing it for I don't know ever, yeah, now, just ever, 227 00:13:17,360 --> 00:13:21,840 Speaker 1: Like the idea of as you said, like the idea 228 00:13:21,840 --> 00:13:23,880 Speaker 1: of a pill is like, well, fuck you, give me 229 00:13:23,920 --> 00:13:26,520 Speaker 1: the pill. I just take that and bibbity bobbity bood 230 00:13:26,559 --> 00:13:30,440 Speaker 1: bit of orange juice or whatever, and four seconds later 231 00:13:30,800 --> 00:13:33,080 Speaker 1: my work is done. I'm back on the couch. But 232 00:13:33,160 --> 00:13:35,760 Speaker 1: the idea of how about we don't take the pill. 233 00:13:36,200 --> 00:13:38,280 Speaker 1: How about we change our diet and our lifestyle and 234 00:13:38,320 --> 00:13:41,560 Speaker 1: our habits and our behaviors and our movement patterns, and 235 00:13:41,880 --> 00:13:44,840 Speaker 1: how about we creating new operating system And look, I 236 00:13:44,880 --> 00:13:46,640 Speaker 1: know you've been doing this and doing that for the 237 00:13:46,720 --> 00:13:49,760 Speaker 1: last oh thirty years, but eh, and it's not going 238 00:13:49,800 --> 00:13:51,800 Speaker 1: to be quick. But in a year you could be 239 00:13:51,880 --> 00:13:54,920 Speaker 1: fucking brand new. Like people like, no, fuck that, give 240 00:13:54,960 --> 00:13:55,400 Speaker 1: me a pill. 241 00:13:55,760 --> 00:13:56,920 Speaker 2: It's too uncomfy. 242 00:13:57,280 --> 00:14:01,680 Speaker 3: It's too uncomfortable, or I've got too many other things 243 00:14:01,840 --> 00:14:03,560 Speaker 3: going on in my head for me to even be 244 00:14:03,640 --> 00:14:08,720 Speaker 3: able to entertain this without a huge kind of rejigging 245 00:14:08,800 --> 00:14:10,720 Speaker 3: of my personal operating system. 246 00:14:10,760 --> 00:14:12,600 Speaker 2: And that feels harder as well. 247 00:14:12,720 --> 00:14:16,120 Speaker 3: Not even the physical effort because ironically as well, because 248 00:14:16,160 --> 00:14:19,320 Speaker 3: if I think, let me know what you were like. 249 00:14:20,080 --> 00:14:22,800 Speaker 3: But I remember some of those first programs I used 250 00:14:22,800 --> 00:14:27,080 Speaker 3: to write, and I was so excited. So at this point, 251 00:14:27,720 --> 00:14:32,240 Speaker 3: at this point, I believe I'd finished undergrad and I'd 252 00:14:32,280 --> 00:14:36,520 Speaker 3: gotten a job in a gym, and that I don't 253 00:14:36,520 --> 00:14:39,280 Speaker 3: think i'd started Masters yet. I can't remember the timeline, 254 00:14:39,400 --> 00:14:42,840 Speaker 3: but either way, there was a very excitable me just 255 00:14:42,960 --> 00:14:45,960 Speaker 3: love in the gym and also in a young person's body, 256 00:14:45,960 --> 00:14:50,040 Speaker 3: which is pretty resilient and you can probably train, overtrain 257 00:14:50,120 --> 00:14:53,040 Speaker 3: a little bit and you're pretty robust. You don't get 258 00:14:53,040 --> 00:14:56,440 Speaker 3: as many as many issues as maybe like fifteen years 259 00:14:56,480 --> 00:14:59,600 Speaker 3: into the future. But I would just write all the 260 00:14:59,680 --> 00:15:02,680 Speaker 3: ex sizes down because I just thought they were all fantastic, 261 00:15:02,720 --> 00:15:05,680 Speaker 3: and I was expecting other people to be as excited 262 00:15:05,840 --> 00:15:09,880 Speaker 3: about these exercises as possible. And I can clearly remember 263 00:15:09,920 --> 00:15:13,760 Speaker 3: them coming in as you know, older people who had 264 00:15:13,800 --> 00:15:18,360 Speaker 3: a lot more on their plate than I did. And yeah, 265 00:15:18,520 --> 00:15:22,640 Speaker 3: try not understanding this challenge of having to work full 266 00:15:22,680 --> 00:15:27,560 Speaker 3: time and also at the end of the day, you 267 00:15:27,680 --> 00:15:32,480 Speaker 3: completely bothered to get past the you know, the overwhelmed 268 00:15:32,520 --> 00:15:36,160 Speaker 3: that the brain's been through and completely incapable of then going, okay, 269 00:15:36,160 --> 00:15:37,880 Speaker 3: it's a great idea to go to the gym now 270 00:15:37,920 --> 00:15:41,000 Speaker 3: as well, and having that part of your decision making 271 00:15:41,040 --> 00:15:45,920 Speaker 3: process just be completely exhausted and blanked out. But at 272 00:15:45,960 --> 00:15:51,440 Speaker 3: the same time them relying on my just blind enthusiasm 273 00:15:51,480 --> 00:15:53,560 Speaker 3: to lean on as well or turn up for this 274 00:15:53,680 --> 00:15:57,360 Speaker 3: kid because they're pretty excited and at least I'll lean 275 00:15:57,400 --> 00:16:02,680 Speaker 3: on their enthusiasm. So maybe like a benefit of the 276 00:16:03,440 --> 00:16:06,480 Speaker 3: me being a little bit immature with the way I 277 00:16:06,560 --> 00:16:10,000 Speaker 3: was going about or not completely understanding or being able 278 00:16:10,040 --> 00:16:12,000 Speaker 3: to see into the future of their challenges. 279 00:16:13,040 --> 00:16:16,360 Speaker 1: Yeah, there's something there's something to be said though, like 280 00:16:16,400 --> 00:16:20,280 Speaker 1: your enthusiasm and that that energy, Like there's something to 281 00:16:20,360 --> 00:16:26,480 Speaker 1: be said for just bringing great energy to any situation. 282 00:16:27,360 --> 00:16:33,200 Speaker 1: Like I'm very conscious of even if I'm not having 283 00:16:33,200 --> 00:16:36,840 Speaker 1: a good day, which is not that often, but I'm 284 00:16:36,920 --> 00:16:40,360 Speaker 1: very conscious of even doing doing podcasts and making sure 285 00:16:40,400 --> 00:16:43,080 Speaker 1: that at the very least for the hour or so 286 00:16:43,120 --> 00:16:45,840 Speaker 1: that I'm chatting, that I have good energy, that I'm 287 00:16:45,840 --> 00:16:48,680 Speaker 1: in a good place, And you know, I feel like 288 00:16:48,760 --> 00:16:51,880 Speaker 1: that's a responsibility. Fortunately for me, I don't really have 289 00:16:51,960 --> 00:16:56,320 Speaker 1: to manufacture it too often. But you know, today For example, 290 00:16:56,320 --> 00:16:59,880 Speaker 1: I did a gig at the Mature in don K 291 00:17:00,440 --> 00:17:01,960 Speaker 1: I think I'm allowed to say. I did a gig 292 00:17:02,000 --> 00:17:05,760 Speaker 1: for Fernwood. Shout out Fernwood. They're so nice, such a 293 00:17:05,760 --> 00:17:10,480 Speaker 1: great culture, such a great company. But I did a 294 00:17:10,480 --> 00:17:16,879 Speaker 1: one hour presentation, brand new presentation on irresistible culture, and 295 00:17:16,920 --> 00:17:19,160 Speaker 1: that was all they said. Our theme for the day 296 00:17:19,200 --> 00:17:21,680 Speaker 1: is irresistible culture, and what you do with that is 297 00:17:21,760 --> 00:17:24,520 Speaker 1: up to you. I'm like cool, So last night I 298 00:17:24,520 --> 00:17:27,800 Speaker 1: wrote a brand new presentation, like, never done this in 299 00:17:28,320 --> 00:17:30,879 Speaker 1: thirty four years of public speaking, I've never done this 300 00:17:30,920 --> 00:17:33,359 Speaker 1: presentation before. I wrote it just for them, and it's 301 00:17:33,440 --> 00:17:37,479 Speaker 1: really good because it made me think about, like, how 302 00:17:38,160 --> 00:17:43,320 Speaker 1: do we build an environment, a culture, a situation, a team, 303 00:17:43,480 --> 00:17:47,639 Speaker 1: a group that people want to be part of, and 304 00:17:47,720 --> 00:17:49,880 Speaker 1: not only do they want to come to this place, 305 00:17:50,640 --> 00:17:53,800 Speaker 1: come to this group, but they want to keep coming back, 306 00:17:54,359 --> 00:17:57,760 Speaker 1: Like you think about so you let's say, for example, 307 00:17:58,480 --> 00:18:02,080 Speaker 1: you know you're a superstar. Exercise physiologists from a technical 308 00:18:02,119 --> 00:18:06,080 Speaker 1: point of view, anatomy physiology by mechanics, all the disease states, 309 00:18:06,119 --> 00:18:09,120 Speaker 1: all the appropriate prescriptions and treatments and blah blah blah, 310 00:18:09,119 --> 00:18:16,199 Speaker 1: you know it all, but emotionally and psychologically and sociologically like, 311 00:18:16,400 --> 00:18:19,439 Speaker 1: oh my god, she's hard work. Like you could be 312 00:18:19,480 --> 00:18:23,320 Speaker 1: the smartest ep in Australia. But if you don't bring 313 00:18:23,359 --> 00:18:28,040 Speaker 1: good energy to let's say, most encounters, people aren't coming 314 00:18:28,080 --> 00:18:32,639 Speaker 1: back right. Like I employed five hundred trainers over my 315 00:18:32,840 --> 00:18:36,359 Speaker 1: journey in owning Harper's, and I can tell you the 316 00:18:36,520 --> 00:18:39,679 Speaker 1: most popular trainers were just the ones that had the 317 00:18:39,680 --> 00:18:43,200 Speaker 1: best energy that people love to be around. It wasn't 318 00:18:43,320 --> 00:18:46,840 Speaker 1: like Anna's got a master's degree, I'll only see her. 319 00:18:47,680 --> 00:18:51,080 Speaker 1: It was about, oh, no, fuck, I love Anna. She's 320 00:18:51,240 --> 00:18:56,400 Speaker 1: ace like, she's fun, she cares, she has empathy, she's 321 00:18:56,440 --> 00:19:00,359 Speaker 1: got good energy. She gets me. It's all That's not like, 322 00:19:00,440 --> 00:19:03,119 Speaker 1: oh you should fucking talk to her about the nervous system. 323 00:19:03,160 --> 00:19:05,600 Speaker 1: She's a gun. It's got nothing to do with that. 324 00:19:06,800 --> 00:19:09,960 Speaker 1: It's like, can we build rapport with it? 325 00:19:09,960 --> 00:19:13,000 Speaker 3: It makes me think about this kind of like a hierarchy, 326 00:19:13,080 --> 00:19:16,400 Speaker 3: not a hierarchy and sort of you know, power or whatever. 327 00:19:17,040 --> 00:19:19,199 Speaker 3: But when we look at I guess the amount of 328 00:19:19,200 --> 00:19:21,679 Speaker 3: time that we spend with people. If we put like 329 00:19:22,000 --> 00:19:25,119 Speaker 3: our example, your example here at the bottom, I spend 330 00:19:25,119 --> 00:19:27,199 Speaker 3: a lot of time with that person trying to nd 331 00:19:27,359 --> 00:19:31,240 Speaker 3: out challenges and what that looks like conscious as well, 332 00:19:31,359 --> 00:19:34,119 Speaker 3: And then you go, okay, who do I care less 333 00:19:34,160 --> 00:19:38,400 Speaker 3: about their personality and more about their absolute skill set 334 00:19:38,600 --> 00:19:42,600 Speaker 3: and abilities. That's something like a surgeon, and like, okay, 335 00:19:43,320 --> 00:19:47,520 Speaker 3: it's right the flip of it, it's like, Okay, we're 336 00:19:47,560 --> 00:19:51,159 Speaker 3: dealing within. You're helping me regain control, whereas at the 337 00:19:51,200 --> 00:19:53,679 Speaker 3: other end of it, it's you're taking a control of 338 00:19:53,800 --> 00:19:57,600 Speaker 3: my knee while I'm unconscious, and you're going to fix it. So, yeah, 339 00:19:57,640 --> 00:20:00,320 Speaker 3: we don't mind about your personality. We do really care 340 00:20:00,359 --> 00:20:00,840 Speaker 3: about the. 341 00:20:00,880 --> 00:20:04,760 Speaker 1: Level of and that's that's so true. But even with that, 342 00:20:05,600 --> 00:20:09,399 Speaker 1: we had we've had doctor Alex, doctor Alex Copeman on 343 00:20:09,440 --> 00:20:11,840 Speaker 1: the show a bunch, right, and we love him his ace. 344 00:20:13,000 --> 00:20:18,680 Speaker 1: I mean, I don't think there's a more I mean, well, 345 00:20:19,200 --> 00:20:21,920 Speaker 1: I won't say important, but being a brain surgeon is 346 00:20:21,960 --> 00:20:25,479 Speaker 1: a pretty fucking important job, right. It's not like you 347 00:20:25,480 --> 00:20:28,359 Speaker 1: don't want anyone just anyone doing that. And there's a 348 00:20:28,520 --> 00:20:31,360 Speaker 1: huge amount of skill and knowledge and training and years 349 00:20:31,400 --> 00:20:34,680 Speaker 1: of experience and competence and confidence and all of that. 350 00:20:35,640 --> 00:20:39,080 Speaker 1: But even he says, it probably killed me for saying this. 351 00:20:40,119 --> 00:20:43,680 Speaker 1: Some neurosurgeons are pricks and they're not nice people. And 352 00:20:43,720 --> 00:20:47,639 Speaker 1: they're not nice and they might be technically good, but 353 00:20:48,960 --> 00:20:51,600 Speaker 1: you know, to case in point, and I can't say who, 354 00:20:51,680 --> 00:20:57,600 Speaker 1: but a friend of mine who's having like issues, he 355 00:20:57,760 --> 00:21:01,399 Speaker 1: met with Alex last week. And the feedback from my 356 00:21:01,520 --> 00:21:05,680 Speaker 1: friend was he's awesome. Yeah, and yes, he's very good 357 00:21:05,680 --> 00:21:08,560 Speaker 1: at his job. But you know what he said. He said, 358 00:21:08,840 --> 00:21:13,800 Speaker 1: he sat with me for an hour, right, and he 359 00:21:13,880 --> 00:21:16,600 Speaker 1: talked to me and he listened to me, and he 360 00:21:17,080 --> 00:21:19,720 Speaker 1: like even and I understand they're very busy. And there's 361 00:21:19,720 --> 00:21:22,440 Speaker 1: a lot of neurosurgeons who are brilliant and all that, right, 362 00:21:22,800 --> 00:21:25,000 Speaker 1: So we're not saying neurosurgeons are good or bad, but 363 00:21:25,040 --> 00:21:27,480 Speaker 1: there are some. It's like there are some podcasters who 364 00:21:27,520 --> 00:21:30,160 Speaker 1: are fucking idiots. There are some some people might say 365 00:21:30,200 --> 00:21:33,360 Speaker 1: I'm in that group. You know, they're an exos physiologists 366 00:21:33,359 --> 00:21:35,400 Speaker 1: that are amazing and not so much. It's not about 367 00:21:35,440 --> 00:21:39,480 Speaker 1: the profession, it's about individuals. But I'm with you, Yeah, 368 00:21:39,520 --> 00:21:43,359 Speaker 1: finding a person, be that an EP or a gardener 369 00:21:43,800 --> 00:21:47,760 Speaker 1: or a neurosurgeon that you trust and that you like 370 00:21:48,280 --> 00:21:50,200 Speaker 1: and that you like being around them, or at the 371 00:21:50,280 --> 00:21:52,280 Speaker 1: very least you trust them to be at your house 372 00:21:52,800 --> 00:21:56,040 Speaker 1: or work with your brain or whatever it is, like, 373 00:21:56,119 --> 00:21:57,320 Speaker 1: it's pretty important. 374 00:21:58,200 --> 00:22:02,520 Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, it's he's probably hit the trifecta there, or 375 00:22:02,560 --> 00:22:07,280 Speaker 3: at least or multiples of whatever's required to be an 376 00:22:07,359 --> 00:22:08,200 Speaker 3: awesome guy. 377 00:22:09,320 --> 00:22:12,960 Speaker 1: In I started working in gyms in eighty two and 378 00:22:13,119 --> 00:22:19,879 Speaker 1: I stopped officially working in gyms in twenty fourteen. So 379 00:22:19,960 --> 00:22:24,199 Speaker 1: that's aden, what's that thirty six years that's actually owning gyms, 380 00:22:24,280 --> 00:22:27,359 Speaker 1: working in gyms, and I still do stuff in gyms. 381 00:22:27,400 --> 00:22:29,680 Speaker 1: I still you know, obviously I worked with a chain 382 00:22:29,720 --> 00:22:32,760 Speaker 1: of gyms today, I'm still doing stuff in the fitnesses 383 00:22:32,840 --> 00:22:35,520 Speaker 1: to blah blah blah blah blah. In all that time 384 00:22:36,119 --> 00:22:39,640 Speaker 1: of working at the coal face of training people, writing programs, 385 00:22:39,680 --> 00:22:43,040 Speaker 1: working with sporting clubs, working with Olympic athletes, you know, 386 00:22:43,119 --> 00:22:46,720 Speaker 1: training a massive cross section of human beings, prescribing exercise, 387 00:22:46,760 --> 00:22:49,119 Speaker 1: blah blah blah, in all of that time, I've been 388 00:22:49,200 --> 00:22:54,080 Speaker 1: asked once what my qualification is by a client? Do 389 00:22:54,119 --> 00:22:55,680 Speaker 1: you know what I mean? Like someone coming in off 390 00:22:55,720 --> 00:22:58,440 Speaker 1: the street and that you go, Hi, this as harp, 391 00:22:58,600 --> 00:23:00,080 Speaker 1: is this what we do? This? How we do it? 392 00:23:00,440 --> 00:23:04,000 Speaker 1: I'm Craig bab Bah, Like one person in all the 393 00:23:04,080 --> 00:23:06,600 Speaker 1: years said to me, what is your qualification? 394 00:23:07,359 --> 00:23:08,040 Speaker 2: Yeah? 395 00:23:08,200 --> 00:23:11,679 Speaker 1: Now I'm not saying it doesn't matter, but you know, 396 00:23:11,760 --> 00:23:15,080 Speaker 1: here's the thing, Like, yes, we need to be qualified 397 00:23:15,080 --> 00:23:18,480 Speaker 1: in short, registered, knowledgeable, all of that stuff. But at 398 00:23:18,520 --> 00:23:20,479 Speaker 1: the end of the day, for a lot of people, 399 00:23:21,600 --> 00:23:26,320 Speaker 1: what is at the very least pretty important is do 400 00:23:26,400 --> 00:23:30,320 Speaker 1: I like you? Do? I trust you do? I think 401 00:23:30,400 --> 00:23:33,240 Speaker 1: you know what you're doing? Do you care about me 402 00:23:33,480 --> 00:23:37,040 Speaker 1: a bit? I know it's a transactional relationship, I get it, 403 00:23:37,760 --> 00:23:40,560 Speaker 1: but even though I'm giving you money and you're giving 404 00:23:40,560 --> 00:23:43,560 Speaker 1: me your skill and service, we can still like each other. 405 00:23:43,920 --> 00:23:45,960 Speaker 1: And then the last question is do I want to 406 00:23:46,000 --> 00:23:49,600 Speaker 1: come back to this place and this person? You know? 407 00:23:50,320 --> 00:23:55,800 Speaker 3: Yeah, social beings at the core of it, which is 408 00:23:55,840 --> 00:23:58,480 Speaker 3: one of the most effective ways changing habits as well. 409 00:24:01,520 --> 00:24:04,520 Speaker 3: How do we nurture both of those things? Be nice, 410 00:24:04,880 --> 00:24:09,399 Speaker 3: be great to be around, and have some thoughts to 411 00:24:09,440 --> 00:24:11,840 Speaker 3: pop into play as well. I think that type of 412 00:24:11,840 --> 00:24:15,960 Speaker 3: persons probably better as well at going I'm not quite 413 00:24:15,960 --> 00:24:17,560 Speaker 3: sure about the answer of that I'm going to come 414 00:24:17,600 --> 00:24:20,280 Speaker 3: back to you or someone else is better to answer 415 00:24:20,280 --> 00:24:22,159 Speaker 3: that can compet to me? 416 00:24:23,000 --> 00:24:25,480 Speaker 1: Yeah, I think that people who are in positions of 417 00:24:28,040 --> 00:24:30,080 Speaker 1: I guess leadership in that you know, when it's you 418 00:24:30,160 --> 00:24:31,919 Speaker 1: and a patient or you and a client, you're the 419 00:24:32,119 --> 00:24:35,240 Speaker 1: leader in that dynamic for that hour. Do you think 420 00:24:35,240 --> 00:24:38,040 Speaker 1: that some people feel compelled to come up with an 421 00:24:38,080 --> 00:24:39,919 Speaker 1: answer even if they really don't know. 422 00:24:40,520 --> 00:24:40,920 Speaker 2: Yeah. 423 00:24:40,960 --> 00:24:45,160 Speaker 3: Absolutely, And I remember that of myself as a young 424 00:24:45,240 --> 00:24:50,080 Speaker 3: clinician and for the young clinicians that I mentor. 425 00:24:50,520 --> 00:24:52,720 Speaker 2: It's one of the kind of hurdles that we try 426 00:24:52,720 --> 00:24:54,080 Speaker 2: to jump really really early. 427 00:24:54,720 --> 00:24:59,040 Speaker 3: Is this idea that almost to the counter of what 428 00:24:59,040 --> 00:25:02,760 Speaker 3: we've been talking about, is that rapport is really hard 429 00:25:02,800 --> 00:25:06,800 Speaker 3: to get and no, you can get rapport within minutes 430 00:25:06,920 --> 00:25:11,440 Speaker 3: or seconds, and that you don't maintain rapport just by 431 00:25:12,000 --> 00:25:14,800 Speaker 3: being the answer for everything. And there feels like there's 432 00:25:14,800 --> 00:25:17,080 Speaker 3: a big pressure as a young clinician to have the 433 00:25:17,160 --> 00:25:20,119 Speaker 3: answer for everything or for things to move at a 434 00:25:20,119 --> 00:25:23,960 Speaker 3: particular pace. And I think that's what you gain as 435 00:25:24,040 --> 00:25:29,120 Speaker 3: you get it you mature as a clinician. Is that's 436 00:25:29,119 --> 00:25:33,480 Speaker 3: something that I now know even greater about the physiology 437 00:25:33,560 --> 00:25:36,360 Speaker 3: is with my skill set and what you're presenting with. 438 00:25:36,840 --> 00:25:38,680 Speaker 3: I don't think we can get to where you want 439 00:25:38,720 --> 00:25:41,399 Speaker 3: to be without the inclusion of either this or this 440 00:25:42,119 --> 00:25:45,280 Speaker 3: or starting somewhere else which doesn't fit into my skill set, 441 00:25:45,880 --> 00:25:48,840 Speaker 3: and that being the trust piece for people as well, 442 00:25:49,040 --> 00:25:52,200 Speaker 3: is that we're not, as you say here doing transaction 443 00:25:52,400 --> 00:25:55,520 Speaker 3: that is just me trying to create a transaction. 444 00:25:56,080 --> 00:25:58,080 Speaker 2: It's a trust kind. 445 00:25:57,960 --> 00:26:03,360 Speaker 3: Of situation as well, and it's also a if it's 446 00:26:03,440 --> 00:26:08,040 Speaker 3: done well, it's a partnership. So this is your responsibility 447 00:26:08,080 --> 00:26:10,399 Speaker 3: for the next two weeks. This is what I'm going 448 00:26:10,480 --> 00:26:12,320 Speaker 3: to do in the background for the next two weeks. 449 00:26:12,359 --> 00:26:15,240 Speaker 3: When we get back here. If everything's gone well and 450 00:26:15,320 --> 00:26:18,120 Speaker 3: I've done my job well with your behavior change stuff, 451 00:26:18,600 --> 00:26:21,400 Speaker 3: and we've hit the mark, then in two weeks, this 452 00:26:21,440 --> 00:26:24,000 Speaker 3: is what we expect to have happened. And you know 453 00:26:24,040 --> 00:26:27,360 Speaker 3: who either come back and life's done something weird or 454 00:26:28,119 --> 00:26:30,720 Speaker 3: it hasn't been quite the right recipe, but they've figured 455 00:26:30,760 --> 00:26:32,600 Speaker 3: out something else that got in the way that they 456 00:26:32,680 --> 00:26:34,040 Speaker 3: just had never a thought of. 457 00:26:34,240 --> 00:26:37,880 Speaker 2: Okay, let's pull that apart. So it's yeah. 458 00:26:37,720 --> 00:26:40,920 Speaker 3: I think it's this beautiful layering is as you get 459 00:26:40,920 --> 00:26:44,280 Speaker 3: better at just being more human about the experience, you 460 00:26:44,400 --> 00:26:47,440 Speaker 3: don't feel the need to be right about everything. 461 00:26:48,440 --> 00:26:52,200 Speaker 1: How much When you are in a meeting with somebody 462 00:26:52,280 --> 00:26:55,840 Speaker 1: for maybe the first time, obviously there's all the clinical 463 00:26:55,880 --> 00:27:01,439 Speaker 1: stuff and the assessment stuff and the science stuff. There's that, 464 00:27:02,000 --> 00:27:05,240 Speaker 1: and then there's the intuition. Then there's the instinct. Then 465 00:27:05,240 --> 00:27:10,399 Speaker 1: there's that I just have a vibe. How much do 466 00:27:10,440 --> 00:27:13,679 Speaker 1: you allow yourself to open the I have a vibe 467 00:27:13,760 --> 00:27:19,800 Speaker 1: door and ask a question which may not even seem 468 00:27:20,040 --> 00:27:23,640 Speaker 1: like some people would go, why the fuck? Did what? What? 469 00:27:24,240 --> 00:27:27,760 Speaker 1: Why are you asking that? Because I feel like when 470 00:27:27,760 --> 00:27:30,120 Speaker 1: you have enough runs on the board or enough miles 471 00:27:30,160 --> 00:27:34,080 Speaker 1: on the metaphoric clock, there's shit that you know about people. 472 00:27:34,320 --> 00:27:37,320 Speaker 1: Sometimes you don't always get it right. I don't always 473 00:27:37,320 --> 00:27:41,280 Speaker 1: get it right, but often intuitively or instinctively, before they've 474 00:27:42,000 --> 00:27:46,280 Speaker 1: even presented with anything or said anything, you know that 475 00:27:46,359 --> 00:27:50,439 Speaker 1: you you know like, how how wide do you open 476 00:27:50,480 --> 00:27:51,840 Speaker 1: that door? If at all? 477 00:27:53,240 --> 00:27:54,200 Speaker 2: Yeah? 478 00:27:53,680 --> 00:27:59,200 Speaker 3: I do I open that door because I usually, particularly 479 00:27:59,280 --> 00:28:01,760 Speaker 3: when I feel like it's going to be helpful for 480 00:28:01,840 --> 00:28:05,520 Speaker 3: the person, whether it's me the one that's delivering the 481 00:28:05,640 --> 00:28:13,320 Speaker 3: end outcome or otherwise, I'm always checking is this a 482 00:28:13,400 --> 00:28:17,719 Speaker 3: question to bolster my ego? Or is this a question 483 00:28:17,960 --> 00:28:20,920 Speaker 3: that's helpful for this person on their journey. So it's 484 00:28:20,960 --> 00:28:24,119 Speaker 3: like just that little click of is this for me? 485 00:28:24,400 --> 00:28:28,960 Speaker 3: Or is this question helpful for our experience together and 486 00:28:29,000 --> 00:28:32,160 Speaker 3: where they say that they want to be, So it's 487 00:28:32,200 --> 00:28:37,480 Speaker 3: always that little bit of a question happening in the background. 488 00:28:38,520 --> 00:28:40,720 Speaker 3: I also think of it as like square wheels and 489 00:28:40,840 --> 00:28:43,160 Speaker 3: round wheels, Like when you start and you're younger, you're 490 00:28:43,200 --> 00:28:45,640 Speaker 3: on the square wheel and everything's a little bit clunky, 491 00:28:46,400 --> 00:28:50,040 Speaker 3: and you haven't even figured out how to ask that 492 00:28:50,120 --> 00:28:54,000 Speaker 3: type of question particularly well, So you're more nervous about 493 00:28:54,080 --> 00:28:57,280 Speaker 3: how you're going to present to them, even if you 494 00:28:57,440 --> 00:29:00,520 Speaker 3: had the thought, often because you're so preocer pied with 495 00:29:01,080 --> 00:29:03,320 Speaker 3: you know, getting everything done in the right time and 496 00:29:03,920 --> 00:29:07,160 Speaker 3: feeling like you've done a good job that and will 497 00:29:07,200 --> 00:29:10,840 Speaker 3: they come back and all those kind of very I'm 498 00:29:10,880 --> 00:29:13,440 Speaker 3: going to air quotes immature kind of it's not that 499 00:29:13,440 --> 00:29:16,200 Speaker 3: they're immature, but these are. This is the experience of 500 00:29:16,280 --> 00:29:19,720 Speaker 3: the clinician as they start then slowly to round out 501 00:29:19,760 --> 00:29:23,960 Speaker 3: the wheels, to feel stronger in asking some of those 502 00:29:24,000 --> 00:29:28,800 Speaker 3: intuitive questions, because you're ultimately dealing with a human, not 503 00:29:28,880 --> 00:29:33,320 Speaker 3: a pathology, and you know, what's the sense of why 504 00:29:33,360 --> 00:29:37,040 Speaker 3: these symptoms are persisting? And what's your sense asking even 505 00:29:37,080 --> 00:29:39,600 Speaker 3: asking them, what's your sense of why this has become 506 00:29:39,720 --> 00:29:43,160 Speaker 3: really difficult in the last six months that you know, 507 00:29:43,680 --> 00:29:49,760 Speaker 3: being able to ask those really reflective questions more so. 508 00:29:50,160 --> 00:29:53,320 Speaker 3: And I think at this point I'm just better at 509 00:29:54,000 --> 00:29:57,040 Speaker 3: putting my values forward in a way that makes it 510 00:29:57,160 --> 00:30:01,600 Speaker 3: feel like a safe question. The example that pops up 511 00:30:02,920 --> 00:30:06,640 Speaker 3: for me was someone that was an ultra runner, and 512 00:30:06,720 --> 00:30:11,240 Speaker 3: there's a reasonable amount of data in ultra runners that 513 00:30:11,320 --> 00:30:16,160 Speaker 3: it's a choice of exercise that often gets chosen by 514 00:30:16,200 --> 00:30:18,400 Speaker 3: people who have had trauma in their life. 515 00:30:19,480 --> 00:30:20,400 Speaker 2: And there was no. 516 00:30:20,440 --> 00:30:24,479 Speaker 3: Sort of particular reason in the kind of scope of 517 00:30:24,520 --> 00:30:26,760 Speaker 3: the story and the way we were talking about it, 518 00:30:26,840 --> 00:30:30,320 Speaker 3: and so it was something, Okay, I feel like this 519 00:30:30,400 --> 00:30:33,600 Speaker 3: is a reasonable and helpful question for me to ask 520 00:30:34,360 --> 00:30:37,400 Speaker 3: and lay it out in a way that feels respectful 521 00:30:37,960 --> 00:30:41,440 Speaker 3: and a way that is demonstrating my values and what 522 00:30:41,480 --> 00:30:44,520 Speaker 3: we're trying to achieve together and lay that question for 523 00:30:44,760 --> 00:30:49,080 Speaker 3: to say, this is something, this is data that pops 524 00:30:49,160 --> 00:30:52,800 Speaker 3: up and is that something that rings true to your story? 525 00:30:53,120 --> 00:30:56,240 Speaker 3: Do you feel comfortable discussing that with me? And then 526 00:30:56,360 --> 00:31:00,600 Speaker 3: that door either opens or it doesn't. And I think 527 00:31:00,640 --> 00:31:04,400 Speaker 3: the coolest thing I've listened to lately was this the 528 00:31:04,520 --> 00:31:05,480 Speaker 3: idea that. 529 00:31:07,360 --> 00:31:11,000 Speaker 2: A coach that's able to ask a question that might. 530 00:31:12,760 --> 00:31:18,479 Speaker 3: That might end up in someone being offended and not 531 00:31:18,640 --> 00:31:24,800 Speaker 3: willing to stay and continue the conversation. Is often a 532 00:31:24,840 --> 00:31:27,680 Speaker 3: coach that's willing to pursue your greatest potential. 533 00:31:28,240 --> 00:31:30,960 Speaker 2: So I'm not as worried about if you're. 534 00:31:30,920 --> 00:31:34,120 Speaker 3: Going to be offended more that I've done it in 535 00:31:34,160 --> 00:31:38,080 Speaker 3: a respectful way because I'm willing to push you to 536 00:31:38,160 --> 00:31:41,320 Speaker 3: a level that's a little bit closer to the potential 537 00:31:41,360 --> 00:31:44,160 Speaker 3: that you're trying to achieve. I'm not going to sugarcoat 538 00:31:44,200 --> 00:31:47,240 Speaker 3: it and just you know, blow smoke to make it 539 00:31:47,280 --> 00:31:51,280 Speaker 3: feel like you're going in the right direction, when maybe 540 00:31:51,280 --> 00:31:55,480 Speaker 3: a trickier question or challenging something is going to be 541 00:31:55,480 --> 00:31:58,280 Speaker 3: a more effective way of slightly shifting the boat that 542 00:31:58,360 --> 00:32:01,320 Speaker 3: one degree and getting you you want to be and 543 00:32:01,440 --> 00:32:04,760 Speaker 3: risking that you might go, actually, no, I you know, 544 00:32:04,840 --> 00:32:07,800 Speaker 3: I don't like that question at all, or I'm offended 545 00:32:07,840 --> 00:32:10,400 Speaker 3: by that question, and you know that's the end of 546 00:32:10,400 --> 00:32:14,480 Speaker 3: the relationship. But yeah, always having that concept in the 547 00:32:14,480 --> 00:32:17,200 Speaker 3: back of the mind that am I doing this for 548 00:32:17,280 --> 00:32:20,520 Speaker 3: their betterments or is this just an ego based question? 549 00:32:21,480 --> 00:32:24,800 Speaker 1: I love it. That's so smart. I love that, And 550 00:32:24,880 --> 00:32:30,680 Speaker 1: I think also in the same kind of vain I 551 00:32:30,920 --> 00:32:35,040 Speaker 1: say to people, I'm not interested in making you feel 552 00:32:35,040 --> 00:32:38,720 Speaker 1: good for the next three minutes. I'm interested in helping 553 00:32:38,760 --> 00:32:41,600 Speaker 1: you over the next three decades, whether or not I'm 554 00:32:41,680 --> 00:32:43,640 Speaker 1: involved for a week or a month or a year, 555 00:32:44,520 --> 00:32:47,440 Speaker 1: Like you know whether or not your nose is in 556 00:32:47,520 --> 00:32:49,600 Speaker 1: joint or out of joint for the next three minutes. 557 00:32:49,600 --> 00:32:52,360 Speaker 1: In a loving, caring way, I give zero fus. Right, 558 00:32:52,520 --> 00:32:56,200 Speaker 1: it doesn't mean I don't care about you. In fact, 559 00:32:56,400 --> 00:32:59,800 Speaker 1: I really care about you. I care so much that 560 00:33:00,160 --> 00:33:04,320 Speaker 1: I want to be the person that helps you coaches, supports, 561 00:33:04,480 --> 00:33:07,280 Speaker 1: encourages you for as long as you want or don't want, 562 00:33:08,360 --> 00:33:13,600 Speaker 1: but to become independently strong, resourceful, self sustaining so you 563 00:33:13,800 --> 00:33:17,120 Speaker 1: don't need me, so you don't need an EP or 564 00:33:17,120 --> 00:33:20,320 Speaker 1: an exercise scientist or a coach or you know, I 565 00:33:20,360 --> 00:33:24,480 Speaker 1: think that, and I think, Look, obviously everybody doesn't resonate 566 00:33:24,520 --> 00:33:27,400 Speaker 1: with me or you, right, and not everybody will resonate 567 00:33:27,480 --> 00:33:31,800 Speaker 1: with this conversation. But you know, for me, it's that 568 00:33:31,960 --> 00:33:36,160 Speaker 1: idea of an unreasonable friend, like someone will tell you 569 00:33:36,200 --> 00:33:39,040 Speaker 1: what is what they believe, someone who actually genuinely cares 570 00:33:39,080 --> 00:33:42,920 Speaker 1: about you. They want you to succeed it's not a 571 00:33:42,960 --> 00:33:47,640 Speaker 1: strategic relationship. Yeah, maybe there's money changing hands, but they 572 00:33:47,680 --> 00:33:50,640 Speaker 1: still actually want you to do well. I used to 573 00:33:50,640 --> 00:33:54,480 Speaker 1: say to my clients, my goal is to get you 574 00:33:54,640 --> 00:33:58,640 Speaker 1: as self sustaining and independent as quickly as possible, and 575 00:33:58,680 --> 00:34:03,160 Speaker 1: then fuck you off, right, I don't want you. I 576 00:34:03,240 --> 00:34:06,360 Speaker 1: want you not to need me. And if I want 577 00:34:06,400 --> 00:34:09,400 Speaker 1: you to be dependent on me, I'm the worst coach 578 00:34:09,440 --> 00:34:13,880 Speaker 1: in the world. But that's some people's model is to 579 00:34:14,000 --> 00:34:17,800 Speaker 1: make people dependent on them. Well, that's just a dealer. 580 00:34:18,120 --> 00:34:21,879 Speaker 1: That's just somebody creating a bunch of addicts. Like I 581 00:34:21,960 --> 00:34:24,799 Speaker 1: want people to not need me. And if they chime 582 00:34:24,840 --> 00:34:26,360 Speaker 1: in and listen to the show for a bit of 583 00:34:26,360 --> 00:34:28,160 Speaker 1: an update or a bit of a kick in the ass, 584 00:34:28,280 --> 00:34:31,440 Speaker 1: or you know, some amusement or entertainment because they're meeting 585 00:34:31,480 --> 00:34:33,799 Speaker 1: you today or whatever, great, I mean, listen to all 586 00:34:33,800 --> 00:34:38,719 Speaker 1: the shows. But I'm not saying you know as you 587 00:34:38,760 --> 00:34:40,480 Speaker 1: say as well, you know I'm not the answer. I'm 588 00:34:40,520 --> 00:34:44,080 Speaker 1: a tool. A tool. A lot of people say that, Yeah, 589 00:34:44,280 --> 00:34:48,440 Speaker 1: that was a faux pat but truth. But I'm a resource. 590 00:34:48,480 --> 00:34:53,160 Speaker 1: But that you know, like sometimes helping people or sometimes 591 00:34:53,200 --> 00:34:56,840 Speaker 1: even being loving doesn't feel very loving in the moment. 592 00:34:57,640 --> 00:35:02,480 Speaker 1: But I think if people genuinely understand firstly, if you 593 00:35:02,600 --> 00:35:05,279 Speaker 1: are coming from a good place, let's just hope that's 594 00:35:05,320 --> 00:35:11,600 Speaker 1: the case. But then they understand that, you know. And 595 00:35:11,640 --> 00:35:13,759 Speaker 1: I've had people in my life. I had a guy 596 00:35:14,200 --> 00:35:17,600 Speaker 1: in my early days and then I'll shut up. I 597 00:35:17,600 --> 00:35:19,680 Speaker 1: had a guy called David Panther, who was one of 598 00:35:19,719 --> 00:35:22,000 Speaker 1: my first clients. I don't even know if David Panther 599 00:35:22,080 --> 00:35:24,600 Speaker 1: is still alive. I haven't seen him for thirty years, right, 600 00:35:25,719 --> 00:35:29,560 Speaker 1: But anyway, he owned a bunch of like you know, 601 00:35:29,640 --> 00:35:34,239 Speaker 1: the two dollar shops right yep or whatever they are, 602 00:35:34,280 --> 00:35:36,359 Speaker 1: those like where you're going and you buy, Oh look, 603 00:35:36,400 --> 00:35:39,040 Speaker 1: I just bought a fucking an astray that lights up 604 00:35:39,080 --> 00:35:42,279 Speaker 1: for a three dollars fifty awesome? Who has astrays? Right? 605 00:35:42,640 --> 00:35:46,040 Speaker 1: Or I just bought prescription and glasses for two dollars 606 00:35:46,680 --> 00:35:48,920 Speaker 1: or not prescription, but you know, reading God, all that 607 00:35:49,000 --> 00:35:52,160 Speaker 1: kind of stuff. Anyway, I used to train him at 608 00:35:52,200 --> 00:35:54,600 Speaker 1: stupid o'clock. I literally used to train him at four 609 00:35:54,600 --> 00:35:58,560 Speaker 1: o'clock or four thirty three days a week. Anyway, that's 610 00:35:58,600 --> 00:36:02,719 Speaker 1: another story. But I was always he was very you know, 611 00:36:02,800 --> 00:36:05,640 Speaker 1: relative to me. He was the richest man in the world. 612 00:36:05,680 --> 00:36:08,840 Speaker 1: I was just I was driving an Orange Cortina station wagon. 613 00:36:09,120 --> 00:36:11,640 Speaker 1: I had four dollars in the bank. I was still 614 00:36:11,640 --> 00:36:14,080 Speaker 1: working in pubs at night, you know, getting punched in 615 00:36:14,080 --> 00:36:16,239 Speaker 1: the face for twelve dollars an hour and all that. Right, 616 00:36:16,320 --> 00:36:19,040 Speaker 1: So I hadn't actually hit the big time, not that 617 00:36:19,120 --> 00:36:21,759 Speaker 1: I ever had. But I used to look up to him, 618 00:36:21,800 --> 00:36:26,000 Speaker 1: and I was somewhat because he was so confident, so successful, 619 00:36:26,160 --> 00:36:32,439 Speaker 1: so wealthy. I'd almost second guess myself around him when 620 00:36:32,440 --> 00:36:35,600 Speaker 1: I was training him. And one day he goes to me, 621 00:36:36,560 --> 00:36:38,960 Speaker 1: he goes, listen to me. Because he was about forty 622 00:36:39,000 --> 00:36:41,319 Speaker 1: and I was twenty two or something. He goes, in 623 00:36:41,360 --> 00:36:46,160 Speaker 1: this environment, he goes, you're the expert. He goes, you're 624 00:36:46,200 --> 00:36:48,879 Speaker 1: the boss. He goes, I know you're twenty two. Maybe 625 00:36:48,880 --> 00:36:51,000 Speaker 1: I was twenty three, so maybe had five years of 626 00:36:51,040 --> 00:36:53,759 Speaker 1: experience in a gym. Still knew fuck all right, But 627 00:36:53,880 --> 00:36:56,719 Speaker 1: compared to him, I knew a lot. And he's like, 628 00:36:56,840 --> 00:37:00,800 Speaker 1: stop second guessing yourself. Tell me what to do, don't 629 00:37:00,960 --> 00:37:05,040 Speaker 1: ask me, just fucking tell me what to do. Be assertive, 630 00:37:05,560 --> 00:37:08,279 Speaker 1: and I will do. He goes, but when you look 631 00:37:08,480 --> 00:37:12,040 Speaker 1: like you're not sure or your second guessing or you're 632 00:37:12,080 --> 00:37:15,480 Speaker 1: lacking confidence, it makes it worse for me. And it 633 00:37:15,520 --> 00:37:18,440 Speaker 1: was like the best conversation anyone could have, and I 634 00:37:18,520 --> 00:37:24,560 Speaker 1: went oh oh, and I went cool, and that kind 635 00:37:24,600 --> 00:37:28,360 Speaker 1: of that was one of many moments on my journey 636 00:37:28,400 --> 00:37:34,200 Speaker 1: where somebody gave me advice, perspective, insight that in that 637 00:37:34,360 --> 00:37:36,680 Speaker 1: moment I really needed because I was just racked with 638 00:37:36,760 --> 00:37:39,279 Speaker 1: self doubt and if I was around anyone that I 639 00:37:39,320 --> 00:37:42,240 Speaker 1: thought was smarter than me, which was pretty much everyone, 640 00:37:43,120 --> 00:37:47,719 Speaker 1: you know, I basically fucking self sabotaged. But those people 641 00:37:47,800 --> 00:37:49,880 Speaker 1: are like angels along our journey. 642 00:37:49,920 --> 00:37:54,239 Speaker 3: I think, yeah, clear, to be kind, I've got heaps 643 00:37:54,280 --> 00:37:57,040 Speaker 3: of little nuggets like that.
