I remember 23 00:01:00,760 --> 00:01:03,080 Speaker 2: we had like some landscape gardeners that would work on 24 00:01:03,120 --> 00:01:07,800 Speaker 2: our on the school kind of length property and take 25 00:01:07,880 --> 00:01:09,600 Speaker 2: care of the gardens and mow the lawns and the 26 00:01:09,640 --> 00:01:12,080 Speaker 2: football level and all that stuff. Did a great job 27 00:01:12,280 --> 00:01:15,080 Speaker 2: and they left the golf buggy that they used one 28 00:01:15,120 --> 00:01:18,360 Speaker 2: day with the keys in it. And I took that 29 00:01:18,480 --> 00:01:20,720 Speaker 2: golf buggy, who drove it on the road with like 30 00:01:20,920 --> 00:01:23,640 Speaker 2: five or six friends on the back and hanging off 31 00:01:23,640 --> 00:01:26,200 Speaker 2: the side of it down to research shops, which were 32 00:01:26,240 --> 00:01:30,680 Speaker 2: like the closest shops to get fish and chips. And 33 00:01:30,760 --> 00:01:33,200 Speaker 2: unfortunately we drove past one of our teachers on the 34 00:01:33,200 --> 00:01:36,040 Speaker 2: way down, so that didn't end so well. 35 00:01:36,880 --> 00:01:38,480 Speaker 1: I thought you were going to tell me you drove 36 00:01:38,560 --> 00:01:40,240 Speaker 1: past a cop car on the way back to the 37 00:01:40,240 --> 00:01:44,880 Speaker 1: school or something, But yeah, well what year was that, mate? 38 00:01:44,880 --> 00:01:45,520 Speaker 1: Give your take? 39 00:01:47,800 --> 00:01:49,520 Speaker 3: Gosh, two thousand and one. 40 00:01:50,520 --> 00:01:52,960 Speaker 1: Yeah, you could probably do that. You know, that's like 41 00:01:53,080 --> 00:01:56,240 Speaker 1: quarter of a century ago. Bro, can you leave a 42 00:01:56,360 --> 00:01:58,440 Speaker 1: quarter of a century ago? You did that. 43 00:02:00,120 --> 00:02:01,840 Speaker 3: Easy? It's crazy. I don't feel like. 44 00:02:02,440 --> 00:02:03,920 Speaker 1: I don't want to tell you you're old, but I 45 00:02:04,080 --> 00:02:08,640 Speaker 1: just out of the bag. Hey, So thank you for 46 00:02:08,680 --> 00:02:11,799 Speaker 1: doing this. I appreciate you. I was made aware of you. 47 00:02:11,840 --> 00:02:14,200 Speaker 1: I don't know how it wasn't how I didn't. I mean, 48 00:02:14,320 --> 00:02:17,119 Speaker 1: I've known about you for about six months. I don't 49 00:02:17,160 --> 00:02:20,520 Speaker 1: know how I didn't discover you before that. But and 50 00:02:20,919 --> 00:02:24,359 Speaker 1: I'm not saying this insincerely, folks, if you don't follow Simon, 51 00:02:24,440 --> 00:02:26,680 Speaker 1: follow him. His stuff is great, He's great. What I 52 00:02:26,720 --> 00:02:32,040 Speaker 1: love about him is he's really objective, he's really well 53 00:02:32,080 --> 00:02:36,160 Speaker 1: thought through. He's he's not hysterical, he's not pushing an agenda, 54 00:02:36,240 --> 00:02:39,480 Speaker 1: he's not selling shit. And I love the way that 55 00:02:39,520 --> 00:02:42,520 Speaker 1: you communicate, and I love the capacity that you have 56 00:02:42,840 --> 00:02:48,000 Speaker 1: to be able to disseminate what can be complicated ship 57 00:02:48,120 --> 00:02:51,639 Speaker 1: in a user friendly way. So is that I mean, 58 00:02:51,720 --> 00:02:53,840 Speaker 1: is that that's obviously how do I share? 59 00:02:53,880 --> 00:02:56,560 Speaker 2: This can be you know, because I should change my 60 00:02:56,800 --> 00:02:59,160 Speaker 2: I should change my buyo, or I should change the 61 00:02:59,160 --> 00:03:02,080 Speaker 2: the about about us page. And I think I might 62 00:03:02,120 --> 00:03:05,120 Speaker 2: steal that from you, because honestly, I grew up my 63 00:03:05,200 --> 00:03:09,359 Speaker 2: dad's a professor of physiology, and so you can imagine 64 00:03:09,360 --> 00:03:11,960 Speaker 2: what you know when I'm five six, seven eight and 65 00:03:12,040 --> 00:03:15,840 Speaker 2: at the dinner table and he's talking like an academic, right, 66 00:03:16,080 --> 00:03:21,280 Speaker 2: I had to very quickly learn to know ask the stupid, 67 00:03:21,639 --> 00:03:24,320 Speaker 2: dumb questions to get him to kind of make it 68 00:03:24,360 --> 00:03:27,720 Speaker 2: more accessible, because it's like another language that these guys speak. 69 00:03:28,040 --> 00:03:32,040 Speaker 2: Whether you're at a conference or you're reading the peer 70 00:03:32,080 --> 00:03:37,640 Speaker 2: review studies. That is a giant arms length away from 71 00:03:37,920 --> 00:03:42,720 Speaker 2: the everyday person who really needs that information. So yeah, 72 00:03:42,800 --> 00:03:45,360 Speaker 2: that's I've kind of taken I guess, those skills that 73 00:03:45,400 --> 00:03:49,080 Speaker 2: I learned at the dinner table and use those today 74 00:03:49,120 --> 00:03:52,080 Speaker 2: to sit down with people like my dad, other professors 75 00:03:52,120 --> 00:03:57,000 Speaker 2: and get them to kind of translate or share their 76 00:03:57,480 --> 00:04:01,520 Speaker 2: often thirty forty years of research in a more accessible, 77 00:04:01,600 --> 00:04:05,080 Speaker 2: more palatable way so that we can myself included, can 78 00:04:05,600 --> 00:04:06,160 Speaker 2: make sense of it. 79 00:04:07,320 --> 00:04:10,280 Speaker 1: As I mean, it's literally like I said to you 80 00:04:10,400 --> 00:04:15,520 Speaker 1: before we started recording, like I'm I'm not a genius 81 00:04:15,560 --> 00:04:19,640 Speaker 1: at all, and I'm a procademic. And when I started 82 00:04:19,680 --> 00:04:23,720 Speaker 1: doing like I finished my last degree a long time ago, 83 00:04:24,839 --> 00:04:28,000 Speaker 1: and then when I started my PhD, and I'm at 84 00:04:28,279 --> 00:04:32,160 Speaker 1: what's called Brain Park, the Neuroscience neurocyclab of Monash University 85 00:04:32,200 --> 00:04:35,640 Speaker 1: in Melbourne, and I'm sitting amongst all these fucking twenty 86 00:04:35,680 --> 00:04:38,760 Speaker 1: three year old genie I like a fucking wombat in 87 00:04:38,800 --> 00:04:42,159 Speaker 1: a black T shirt. I'm trying to figure out. And 88 00:04:42,200 --> 00:04:45,320 Speaker 1: then we're having meetings where everybody gets together and talks 89 00:04:45,320 --> 00:04:48,880 Speaker 1: about their project, in other words, their PhD, like what 90 00:04:48,920 --> 00:04:52,320 Speaker 1: they're doing in their research, and I literally, for a 91 00:04:52,400 --> 00:04:55,479 Speaker 1: year didn't understand what anyone was talking about. I had 92 00:04:55,480 --> 00:04:57,040 Speaker 1: to keep going, what does that mean? What does that mean? 93 00:04:57,080 --> 00:04:59,040 Speaker 1: What's that word? Like, I'm writing stuff that not a 94 00:04:59,120 --> 00:05:02,279 Speaker 1: year but a rock solid six months. And I think 95 00:05:02,320 --> 00:05:07,760 Speaker 1: sometimes with academia and research for many people, and it's 96 00:05:07,760 --> 00:05:11,680 Speaker 1: not good or bad, and it's not a it's not 97 00:05:11,760 --> 00:05:14,680 Speaker 1: a slight on anyone's intelligence, but it's like you're walking 98 00:05:14,720 --> 00:05:17,760 Speaker 1: into a room where everyone's literally speaking a different language. 99 00:05:18,040 --> 00:05:20,599 Speaker 1: It's like, I'm you know, like I walk into room 100 00:05:20,640 --> 00:05:23,000 Speaker 1: and everyone in the room speaks Russian except me. Well, 101 00:05:23,000 --> 00:05:25,120 Speaker 1: I know I'm not stupid, and I know that they're 102 00:05:25,160 --> 00:05:28,560 Speaker 1: not necessarily smarter than me, but I don't speak Russian, 103 00:05:28,600 --> 00:05:31,560 Speaker 1: so I'm at a massive disadvantage. And everything they're telling 104 00:05:31,600 --> 00:05:33,920 Speaker 1: me is to them, it's clear and it makes sense, 105 00:05:33,960 --> 00:05:36,320 Speaker 1: and the research is right and it's logical and it's 106 00:05:36,320 --> 00:05:39,359 Speaker 1: even relevant to me. But I'm like, that's awesome, but 107 00:05:39,400 --> 00:05:43,560 Speaker 1: I don't fucking speak Russian. And that's what it's like sometimes, 108 00:05:43,560 --> 00:05:47,640 Speaker 1: that chasm between research and information that's relevant for so 109 00:05:47,760 --> 00:05:51,480 Speaker 1: many people. And that's why I think your stuff is 110 00:05:51,600 --> 00:05:56,080 Speaker 1: good is great, because that's you're almost like which I 111 00:05:56,160 --> 00:05:58,479 Speaker 1: try and be too, but you're kind of a conduit 112 00:05:58,600 --> 00:06:02,640 Speaker 1: between these two disparate sometimes disparate worlds. 113 00:06:03,400 --> 00:06:06,680 Speaker 2: Yeah, I think my guiding light, which I feel in 114 00:06:06,760 --> 00:06:09,720 Speaker 2: the brief time that i've I've got to learn a 115 00:06:09,760 --> 00:06:13,080 Speaker 2: little bit more about you today is curiosity. And I 116 00:06:13,080 --> 00:06:17,159 Speaker 2: think you share that, and it's it's frustrating. It's frustrating 117 00:06:17,200 --> 00:06:21,560 Speaker 2: when you don't understand something, and it can be scary 118 00:06:21,760 --> 00:06:25,799 Speaker 2: to kind of to ask the quote unquote dumb question. 119 00:06:26,480 --> 00:06:28,800 Speaker 2: But I very much since I was little and to 120 00:06:28,800 --> 00:06:32,039 Speaker 2: this date, I'm not one to sit back if I 121 00:06:32,120 --> 00:06:34,839 Speaker 2: have a question and it's it's it's silly, it's. 122 00:06:34,720 --> 00:06:36,680 Speaker 3: Dumb, and I could look stupid. 123 00:06:37,200 --> 00:06:41,119 Speaker 2: I'm still gonna ask it because curiosity is really what's 124 00:06:41,839 --> 00:06:44,080 Speaker 2: driving everything I do, and it has to be driving 125 00:06:44,120 --> 00:06:46,280 Speaker 2: what you do to put out in one episode every 126 00:06:46,320 --> 00:06:46,839 Speaker 2: single day. 127 00:06:46,880 --> 00:06:50,040 Speaker 3: And I think you said two thousand episodes so. 128 00:06:50,160 --> 00:06:53,480 Speaker 2: Far, I have to imagine curiosity is curiosity is at 129 00:06:53,480 --> 00:06:54,440 Speaker 2: the center of that. 130 00:06:55,320 --> 00:07:01,520 Speaker 1: Yeah, I I did it. I did a podcast probably 131 00:07:01,560 --> 00:07:03,160 Speaker 1: two or three years ago now with a guy from 132 00:07:03,200 --> 00:07:06,279 Speaker 1: the States called Professor Amic Goswami, and at the time 133 00:07:06,320 --> 00:07:09,720 Speaker 1: he was eighty four and he's like a super duper 134 00:07:09,880 --> 00:07:15,720 Speaker 1: professional professor of theoretical physics and quantum theory, and mud 135 00:07:15,840 --> 00:07:20,520 Speaker 1: he like all this, and I'm I started talking to him, Simon, 136 00:07:20,640 --> 00:07:24,280 Speaker 1: I'm five minutes in and I'm thinking, I'm fucked. I 137 00:07:24,400 --> 00:07:26,880 Speaker 1: do not have I'm running out of shit to ask him, 138 00:07:27,600 --> 00:07:30,640 Speaker 1: and I'm because I'm not smart enough to be in 139 00:07:30,680 --> 00:07:34,000 Speaker 1: this room. And I just stopped and I went and 140 00:07:34,040 --> 00:07:36,960 Speaker 1: he was so beautiful. He was like this wise spiritual, 141 00:07:37,000 --> 00:07:42,680 Speaker 1: it's like the insection of spirituality and research and academia. 142 00:07:43,280 --> 00:07:46,440 Speaker 1: And I said to him, professor, can I tell you something? 143 00:07:46,440 --> 00:07:49,040 Speaker 1: And he goes, yes, of course, And I'm not smart 144 00:07:49,120 --> 00:07:51,520 Speaker 1: enough to be in this chat. And then he just 145 00:07:51,640 --> 00:07:54,200 Speaker 1: laughed and he went, oh, I think you're quite smart. 146 00:07:54,240 --> 00:07:55,680 Speaker 1: And then he went I went, oh, I don't know 147 00:07:55,720 --> 00:07:59,040 Speaker 1: about that, but you know, for me, it's like that, yeah, 148 00:07:59,320 --> 00:08:03,560 Speaker 1: I've I'd rather just go I need to kind of 149 00:08:03,880 --> 00:08:06,160 Speaker 1: own up a little bit because I'm not sure what 150 00:08:06,200 --> 00:08:08,760 Speaker 1: I'm asked. I don't know. I don't even know what 151 00:08:08,920 --> 00:08:10,840 Speaker 1: to ask you in this moment to make it a 152 00:08:10,840 --> 00:08:13,880 Speaker 1: good listening experience for the thousands of people that rock 153 00:08:14,000 --> 00:08:15,960 Speaker 1: up to listen to this every day. And he was 154 00:08:16,000 --> 00:08:18,360 Speaker 1: so good, he was so and it ended up being 155 00:08:18,360 --> 00:08:21,120 Speaker 1: a really good chat. But I just had that moment 156 00:08:21,200 --> 00:08:24,800 Speaker 1: of terror where I'm I'm thinking, I don't know how 157 00:08:24,800 --> 00:08:26,120 Speaker 1: to make this okay. 158 00:08:27,760 --> 00:08:30,320 Speaker 2: Right, But it sounds like I mean for you to 159 00:08:30,360 --> 00:08:33,600 Speaker 2: say that was quite vulnerable. So it took it took 160 00:08:33,600 --> 00:08:36,240 Speaker 2: a lot of It took a lot of vulnerability for 161 00:08:36,280 --> 00:08:38,000 Speaker 2: you to kind of put your hand up. 162 00:08:37,920 --> 00:08:41,160 Speaker 3: And say, I'm not sure what to ask you. 163 00:08:42,679 --> 00:08:45,880 Speaker 2: But as is often the case, if we are vulnerable 164 00:08:45,920 --> 00:08:48,560 Speaker 2: and willing to kind of let down the wall, good 165 00:08:48,600 --> 00:08:50,760 Speaker 2: things can happen. So I'm glad that you had that 166 00:08:50,840 --> 00:08:54,120 Speaker 2: experience and he didn't. He didn't just say okay, let's 167 00:08:54,160 --> 00:08:54,920 Speaker 2: end the podcast. 168 00:08:56,040 --> 00:08:58,400 Speaker 1: That would have been That would have been hurtful. That 169 00:08:58,440 --> 00:09:01,080 Speaker 1: would have been hurtful. All right, So let's talk a 170 00:09:01,080 --> 00:09:05,720 Speaker 1: bit about you and your stuff. So I told you 171 00:09:05,760 --> 00:09:08,760 Speaker 1: before you know, we went live, that I started really 172 00:09:08,760 --> 00:09:11,760 Speaker 1: in the physical space ex sized physiology and training people 173 00:09:11,760 --> 00:09:13,360 Speaker 1: and all of that. And I still love that and 174 00:09:13,400 --> 00:09:15,600 Speaker 1: I still help a few people out in that space. 175 00:09:15,640 --> 00:09:17,920 Speaker 1: But you know, I got to the point with me 176 00:09:18,040 --> 00:09:21,640 Speaker 1: where I went, you know, bodies are interesting, but minds 177 00:09:21,679 --> 00:09:24,600 Speaker 1: for me, minds and brains are more interesting. And so 178 00:09:24,679 --> 00:09:29,480 Speaker 1: I'm going to open that door now. And did you 179 00:09:29,559 --> 00:09:31,760 Speaker 1: start in physio? Am I right with that. You started 180 00:09:31,760 --> 00:09:32,840 Speaker 1: as a physiotherapist. 181 00:09:33,880 --> 00:09:34,319 Speaker 3: Yeah, I went. 182 00:09:34,400 --> 00:09:38,280 Speaker 2: I went straight into physiotherapy Latrobe University and so I 183 00:09:38,280 --> 00:09:43,920 Speaker 2: did my under undergraduate there and then went to private practice. 184 00:09:44,200 --> 00:09:46,679 Speaker 2: So I was working at you pran sports medicine center. 185 00:09:48,440 --> 00:09:52,000 Speaker 2: Marlven wrote, Yeah, so I worked there. I was fortunate 186 00:09:52,120 --> 00:09:54,400 Speaker 2: enough to get a job straight straight out of university 187 00:09:54,400 --> 00:09:58,680 Speaker 2: there and worked there. And then I was working with 188 00:09:59,080 --> 00:10:04,440 Speaker 2: Coburg Tiger in the Richmond Football Club and so working 189 00:10:04,480 --> 00:10:07,360 Speaker 2: with elite athletes. And that was the time actually when 190 00:10:07,400 --> 00:10:10,600 Speaker 2: Ben Cousins had come back from West Coast and was 191 00:10:10,600 --> 00:10:13,120 Speaker 2: playing playing with Richmond. He was playing quite a bit 192 00:10:13,160 --> 00:10:18,320 Speaker 2: of football with Koburg Tigers, so I remember treating him 193 00:10:18,679 --> 00:10:22,240 Speaker 2: and so I was in that physiotherapy space. And then 194 00:10:22,679 --> 00:10:24,560 Speaker 2: you know, some years later we ended up going back 195 00:10:24,600 --> 00:10:27,199 Speaker 2: to university as you know, and I went to Degan University. 196 00:10:27,400 --> 00:10:31,480 Speaker 3: That's where did my masters and nutrition mm hmm, I was. 197 00:10:31,559 --> 00:10:34,360 Speaker 1: We were probably at similar time. I worked at Port 198 00:10:34,440 --> 00:10:37,800 Speaker 1: Melbourne for a few years also in the NFL, and 199 00:10:37,840 --> 00:10:40,920 Speaker 1: then before that at the Saints and the AFL for 200 00:10:41,080 --> 00:10:45,720 Speaker 1: about four years. In those it's it's it's an interesting environment. 201 00:10:45,800 --> 00:10:46,920 Speaker 1: That system isn't. 202 00:10:46,679 --> 00:10:49,160 Speaker 3: It mm hmm, yeah it is. 203 00:10:49,280 --> 00:10:53,560 Speaker 2: I mean I loved that environment because I was playing 204 00:10:53,720 --> 00:10:58,439 Speaker 2: football in the Eastern Football League and school and I 205 00:10:58,520 --> 00:11:00,000 Speaker 2: was captain of our school football team. 206 00:11:00,080 --> 00:11:01,840 Speaker 3: So I took footy really seriously. 207 00:11:02,520 --> 00:11:06,760 Speaker 2: And when I finished high school two thousand and four, 208 00:11:07,800 --> 00:11:10,440 Speaker 2: I knew that I wasn't going to take football any 209 00:11:10,559 --> 00:11:13,840 Speaker 2: any further, and so physiotherapy for me was a way 210 00:11:13,880 --> 00:11:16,760 Speaker 2: to stay involved in football, and I knew it was 211 00:11:16,920 --> 00:11:19,000 Speaker 2: like going straight into first year. I knew I was 212 00:11:19,040 --> 00:11:21,679 Speaker 2: going to go down the path of kind of sports 213 00:11:21,679 --> 00:11:26,400 Speaker 2: physiotherapy and then I ultimately try and work with footballers 214 00:11:26,400 --> 00:11:27,600 Speaker 2: in the AFL. 215 00:11:28,120 --> 00:11:33,080 Speaker 1: So what what was the prompt to move away from 216 00:11:33,080 --> 00:11:36,960 Speaker 1: physio and into nutrition was did something happen or it 217 00:11:37,000 --> 00:11:38,480 Speaker 1: was just an evolution. 218 00:11:39,280 --> 00:11:40,640 Speaker 3: It was an evolution. 219 00:11:40,800 --> 00:11:43,280 Speaker 2: I had a huge amount of curiosity for what we 220 00:11:43,360 --> 00:11:45,400 Speaker 2: eat and the effect that it has on our health 221 00:11:45,559 --> 00:11:50,160 Speaker 2: and for the kind of seed that was planted for me. 222 00:11:52,559 --> 00:11:56,200 Speaker 2: Went back to when I was fifteen years old. So 223 00:11:56,280 --> 00:11:58,440 Speaker 2: my dad and I were out in the Yarra Valley 224 00:11:59,360 --> 00:12:02,120 Speaker 2: and to go out on the weekends with my brother 225 00:12:02,200 --> 00:12:04,000 Speaker 2: and my dad and I and on this Sunday was 226 00:12:04,040 --> 00:12:07,079 Speaker 2: just my dad and I and we were going around 227 00:12:07,120 --> 00:12:10,120 Speaker 2: and jumping from small winery to small winery, and I 228 00:12:10,160 --> 00:12:15,319 Speaker 2: was like, I was fifteen, fourteen, fifteen, and on this afternoon, 229 00:12:15,320 --> 00:12:17,840 Speaker 2: beautiful afternoon, we're driving back. My dad lived in King 230 00:12:17,920 --> 00:12:22,080 Speaker 2: Lake at the time, and he started getting chest pain 231 00:12:24,200 --> 00:12:28,160 Speaker 2: and I could tell that he was uncomfortable, and he 232 00:12:28,240 --> 00:12:30,400 Speaker 2: kind of played it down, and we got back to 233 00:12:30,600 --> 00:12:33,840 Speaker 2: his house in King Lake and we cooked dinner and 234 00:12:33,920 --> 00:12:37,160 Speaker 2: I checked in on him. He seemed to think that 235 00:12:37,240 --> 00:12:41,600 Speaker 2: it was dissipating, not as much pain as before, and 236 00:12:41,640 --> 00:12:42,080 Speaker 2: we had. 237 00:12:41,960 --> 00:12:44,040 Speaker 3: Dinner and then I went to bed, thinking nothing of it. 238 00:12:44,080 --> 00:12:47,840 Speaker 2: But I awoke in the early hours of the night 239 00:12:48,000 --> 00:12:51,120 Speaker 2: to loud noises in the kitchen and went out and 240 00:12:51,160 --> 00:12:54,640 Speaker 2: he was having a full blown heart attack. And so 241 00:12:54,679 --> 00:12:58,280 Speaker 2: he was like he was basically making his way to 242 00:12:58,320 --> 00:13:01,520 Speaker 2: the phone call he had dial triples zero, and I 243 00:13:01,600 --> 00:13:07,000 Speaker 2: was the one that spoke to the paramedics and detailed 244 00:13:07,000 --> 00:13:09,000 Speaker 2: what was happening. And because we were in King Lake, 245 00:13:09,440 --> 00:13:11,880 Speaker 2: which at the time, and I'm sure now it's been developed, 246 00:13:12,000 --> 00:13:15,920 Speaker 2: so it's like right up through Whittlesea's probably lots lots 247 00:13:15,920 --> 00:13:19,040 Speaker 2: of neighborhoods and homes. But back then you drive from 248 00:13:20,120 --> 00:13:24,200 Speaker 2: kind of r MIT in Bundura up to King Lake. 249 00:13:24,240 --> 00:13:26,319 Speaker 2: There was not a lot in between. It was mostly 250 00:13:26,480 --> 00:13:30,200 Speaker 2: just farms, you know. South Brange was all farms. And 251 00:13:31,040 --> 00:13:32,480 Speaker 2: so they said, look, you're a long way from the 252 00:13:32,559 --> 00:13:35,080 Speaker 2: nearest hospital. We're sending a helicopter, and they sent a 253 00:13:35,080 --> 00:13:39,120 Speaker 2: helicopter to pick up my dad and I went by 254 00:13:39,400 --> 00:13:43,000 Speaker 2: road in the ambulance trailing them, and by that time 255 00:13:43,040 --> 00:13:45,240 Speaker 2: my mum and brother because my parents were divorced when 256 00:13:45,280 --> 00:13:48,920 Speaker 2: I was younger, they made their way over and to 257 00:13:48,960 --> 00:13:50,880 Speaker 2: the hospital and so we had this long wait to 258 00:13:50,920 --> 00:13:54,560 Speaker 2: find out like what's happening, and you know, ultimately the 259 00:13:54,600 --> 00:13:57,640 Speaker 2: cardiologists came out and said, your dad's had a huge 260 00:13:57,679 --> 00:14:00,520 Speaker 2: heart attack and we've we've managed to save these life. 261 00:14:01,520 --> 00:14:03,720 Speaker 2: But his life will look a little different from now on, 262 00:14:03,760 --> 00:14:06,160 Speaker 2: and he'll be on medications. And you guys, are you know, 263 00:14:06,200 --> 00:14:10,360 Speaker 2: fifteen and seventeen or eighteen, my brother, you're going to 264 00:14:10,440 --> 00:14:13,120 Speaker 2: need to really keep a close eye on your cardiovascular 265 00:14:13,160 --> 00:14:17,680 Speaker 2: health because cardiovasca disease runs in families, which is all true. 266 00:14:18,120 --> 00:14:20,960 Speaker 2: And at the time we were just grateful that dad 267 00:14:21,280 --> 00:14:25,320 Speaker 2: was alive. Yeah, of course, but in the aftermath of that, 268 00:14:26,520 --> 00:14:28,520 Speaker 2: my brother and I just kind of always had this 269 00:14:28,600 --> 00:14:31,920 Speaker 2: lingering idea that our heart disease runs in our family. So, 270 00:14:32,720 --> 00:14:34,680 Speaker 2: you know, Dad's had a hard to take at forty one, 271 00:14:34,720 --> 00:14:38,240 Speaker 2: and my dad didn't look like My dad wasn't obese, 272 00:14:38,360 --> 00:14:41,560 Speaker 2: he wasn't eating McDonald's and. 273 00:14:41,440 --> 00:14:42,320 Speaker 3: All fast food. 274 00:14:42,360 --> 00:14:46,040 Speaker 2: He was living the typical Australian lifestyle and was representative 275 00:14:46,080 --> 00:14:49,240 Speaker 2: of a kind of young Australian dad who yeah, was 276 00:14:49,280 --> 00:14:52,240 Speaker 2: working hard to make enough money to provide for his family, 277 00:14:52,240 --> 00:14:55,320 Speaker 2: probably a little overstressed. He would exercise, you know, three 278 00:14:55,360 --> 00:14:58,320 Speaker 2: times a week, and his diet was, you know, just 279 00:14:58,400 --> 00:15:02,080 Speaker 2: average austrained diet, but not a whole lot of fast food. 280 00:15:03,120 --> 00:15:05,720 Speaker 2: And so we didn't and he wasn't on any medications, 281 00:15:05,800 --> 00:15:08,760 Speaker 2: had no diagnoses, so we didn't kind of see this coming. 282 00:15:09,840 --> 00:15:13,360 Speaker 2: So it was that at this stage, it's forty one. 283 00:15:13,520 --> 00:15:16,520 Speaker 1: Wow, didude, that's so stupidly young. 284 00:15:17,200 --> 00:15:20,520 Speaker 2: It's so young, right, Yeah, Like I'm nearly forty one now, 285 00:15:20,600 --> 00:15:23,520 Speaker 2: so I'm I'm going through this weird phase now where 286 00:15:23,520 --> 00:15:27,240 Speaker 2: I'm like, holy shit, Like I'm basically at the age 287 00:15:27,240 --> 00:15:28,560 Speaker 2: of when my dad had this heart. 288 00:15:28,360 --> 00:15:29,560 Speaker 3: Attack, and. 289 00:15:31,280 --> 00:15:33,560 Speaker 2: As I said, he wasn't on like cholesterol medications or 290 00:15:33,560 --> 00:15:36,240 Speaker 2: blood pressure medications or blood glucose medications. He was on 291 00:15:36,520 --> 00:15:40,600 Speaker 2: zero prescription medications, so from the outside he kind of 292 00:15:41,080 --> 00:15:43,320 Speaker 2: had there was no sign of this coming. 293 00:15:44,200 --> 00:15:48,240 Speaker 3: And so yeah, there was this limiting We had this limiting. 294 00:15:47,960 --> 00:15:51,360 Speaker 2: Belief, my brother and I that we were destined to develop, 295 00:15:51,600 --> 00:15:56,480 Speaker 2: you know, cardiovascuar disease and probably had some dodgy genes. 296 00:15:57,600 --> 00:16:01,160 Speaker 2: And it wasn't until I got to my sort of 297 00:16:01,160 --> 00:16:03,480 Speaker 2: mid to late twenties when I really got a little 298 00:16:03,480 --> 00:16:05,920 Speaker 2: bit more interested in nutrition. And at that stage I 299 00:16:05,920 --> 00:16:09,000 Speaker 2: started to I was reading the literature, and I'd had 300 00:16:09,160 --> 00:16:11,560 Speaker 2: some training of how to read the literature in my 301 00:16:11,640 --> 00:16:15,360 Speaker 2: undergraduate but I can tell you it was nowhere near 302 00:16:15,360 --> 00:16:19,280 Speaker 2: specific enough to make sense of nutrition science. And so 303 00:16:19,360 --> 00:16:22,160 Speaker 2: I was reading, and I was confused and going and 304 00:16:22,320 --> 00:16:26,280 Speaker 2: reading like an article from a supposed reputable source and 305 00:16:26,320 --> 00:16:31,120 Speaker 2: then seeing another article and they seem very contradictory. And 306 00:16:31,520 --> 00:16:32,960 Speaker 2: I was in the position that I think a lot 307 00:16:32,960 --> 00:16:36,680 Speaker 2: of people listening are probably in and continue to be in, 308 00:16:36,880 --> 00:16:41,040 Speaker 2: especially with social media how that's evolved. Now it's scroll 309 00:16:41,080 --> 00:16:44,280 Speaker 2: and then scroll up, and you're exposed to contradictory things, 310 00:16:44,440 --> 00:16:50,560 Speaker 2: you know, within seconds. So I was like, I need 311 00:16:50,600 --> 00:16:54,200 Speaker 2: to understand how to read the primary literature here, and 312 00:16:54,280 --> 00:16:56,360 Speaker 2: that was the curiosity piece. So I went back and 313 00:16:56,560 --> 00:16:59,320 Speaker 2: applied to Deacon. Thankfully they let me in and I 314 00:16:59,360 --> 00:17:03,320 Speaker 2: did my master degree there, and my sole goal was 315 00:17:03,440 --> 00:17:07,119 Speaker 2: I want to understand how to read this literature so 316 00:17:07,160 --> 00:17:09,840 Speaker 2: I can actually understand how to eat to reduce my 317 00:17:10,000 --> 00:17:15,320 Speaker 2: risk of cardiovascular disease. And more and more I got 318 00:17:15,320 --> 00:17:21,480 Speaker 2: into it, and then you know, started seeing patients speaking 319 00:17:21,520 --> 00:17:23,639 Speaker 2: to people in my community. 320 00:17:24,240 --> 00:17:26,119 Speaker 3: I had the urge. 321 00:17:25,880 --> 00:17:29,520 Speaker 2: To start communicating, you know, through my podcast, which is 322 00:17:29,560 --> 00:17:31,720 Speaker 2: my primary kind of channel that I do that through now, 323 00:17:32,400 --> 00:17:36,199 Speaker 2: because there is so much misinformation and because it's so 324 00:17:36,760 --> 00:17:40,240 Speaker 2: it seems the research seems like it's all over the place. 325 00:17:40,280 --> 00:17:42,760 Speaker 2: And I understand that it seems like there's all sorts 326 00:17:42,760 --> 00:17:46,000 Speaker 2: of because everyone can say study show, right, So if 327 00:17:46,480 --> 00:17:49,919 Speaker 2: Bob saying study show, and Mark saying study show, and 328 00:17:49,960 --> 00:17:52,479 Speaker 2: Sandra's saying study show, but they're all saying different things, well, 329 00:17:52,520 --> 00:17:54,280 Speaker 2: clearly the research is just confused. 330 00:17:54,720 --> 00:17:58,280 Speaker 3: But it's that's not actually the case. It's that. 331 00:17:59,560 --> 00:18:02,640 Speaker 2: Contact matters, and so sure you can go and find 332 00:18:02,680 --> 00:18:05,359 Speaker 2: any study to kind of show anything, but what's often 333 00:18:05,480 --> 00:18:09,440 Speaker 2: met like left out of these conversations is the important context, 334 00:18:09,440 --> 00:18:13,800 Speaker 2: and when you do appreciate the context of the science, you. 335 00:18:13,880 --> 00:18:16,480 Speaker 3: Actually see that you know, of course, we. 336 00:18:16,440 --> 00:18:19,040 Speaker 2: Don't know everything. There's fucking there's so much stuff for 337 00:18:19,119 --> 00:18:21,520 Speaker 2: us to learn. I know that, like there are I 338 00:18:21,560 --> 00:18:25,800 Speaker 2: have so many blind spots. But there is so much 339 00:18:25,880 --> 00:18:29,200 Speaker 2: within the body of nutrition science research that has been 340 00:18:29,240 --> 00:18:33,320 Speaker 2: conducted for now, you know, one hundred plus years that. 341 00:18:33,560 --> 00:18:37,240 Speaker 3: We can we can use to be fairly. 342 00:18:36,920 --> 00:18:41,000 Speaker 2: Confident about a large part, like a large part of 343 00:18:41,800 --> 00:18:45,720 Speaker 2: the dietary pattern that we eat and ways in which 344 00:18:45,880 --> 00:18:49,399 Speaker 2: we can eat to reduce chronic disease. We don't know everything, 345 00:18:49,680 --> 00:18:52,880 Speaker 2: but we do understand the big picture. And I think 346 00:18:52,920 --> 00:18:59,360 Speaker 2: that when people go on social media, particularly today, they they're. 347 00:18:58,960 --> 00:19:00,000 Speaker 3: Left with a different feeling. 348 00:19:00,160 --> 00:19:02,560 Speaker 2: They're left with that, you know, nutrition science is just 349 00:19:02,640 --> 00:19:05,840 Speaker 2: all over the place, and then they end up probably 350 00:19:05,880 --> 00:19:08,159 Speaker 2: just throwing their arms up in the air and saying, 351 00:19:08,720 --> 00:19:09,680 Speaker 2: it's your status quo. 352 00:19:09,720 --> 00:19:11,480 Speaker 3: I'm just going to keep doing what I'm doing because 353 00:19:11,480 --> 00:19:12,400 Speaker 3: no one can agree. 354 00:19:13,119 --> 00:19:15,160 Speaker 1: And I think that's the beauty of your work, right, 355 00:19:15,200 --> 00:19:18,560 Speaker 1: It's like you're kind of opening doors and I love. 356 00:19:19,000 --> 00:19:22,120 Speaker 1: What I love about you is you have an ability 357 00:19:22,200 --> 00:19:26,560 Speaker 1: to look at what somebody else has put up, but 358 00:19:26,800 --> 00:19:30,159 Speaker 1: not really be a prick about it. I like that 359 00:19:30,280 --> 00:19:33,239 Speaker 1: where you can go So this guy said this, and 360 00:19:33,280 --> 00:19:35,840 Speaker 1: here he is saying this, and then now here he 361 00:19:35,920 --> 00:19:39,720 Speaker 1: is saying this. So these things clearly, you know, this 362 00:19:39,800 --> 00:19:41,720 Speaker 1: suited him in this video, and this suits him in 363 00:19:41,720 --> 00:19:45,480 Speaker 1: this video, and he's saying things which are diametrically opposite 364 00:19:45,560 --> 00:19:49,080 Speaker 1: or opposed. You know, but you're not calling anyone an 365 00:19:49,119 --> 00:19:53,280 Speaker 1: idiot or a moron, and you're literally just presenting information. 366 00:19:53,400 --> 00:19:57,160 Speaker 1: And I like that and that's refreshing versus I don't 367 00:19:57,160 --> 00:19:58,960 Speaker 1: often do this, but I'm going to say one name 368 00:19:59,000 --> 00:20:01,840 Speaker 1: that you would know, and I think this guy's smart. 369 00:20:01,840 --> 00:20:04,480 Speaker 1: But Lane Norton obviously you know who that guy is 370 00:20:04,600 --> 00:20:08,520 Speaker 1: or no, yeah, yeah, Like I sometimes I'm like, dude, 371 00:20:08,840 --> 00:20:11,359 Speaker 1: I love this, but do you have to call everyone 372 00:20:11,760 --> 00:20:14,280 Speaker 1: an idiot or a moron? It makes me like you 373 00:20:14,480 --> 00:20:17,880 Speaker 1: less Just just like you're smart. You've got a PhD 374 00:20:18,119 --> 00:20:21,640 Speaker 1: in nutrition, you're smart, and you don't need all the 375 00:20:21,640 --> 00:20:25,280 Speaker 1: theatrics and the denner grading of everybody who doesn't think 376 00:20:25,400 --> 00:20:27,560 Speaker 1: like you for me. And I know he has a 377 00:20:27,600 --> 00:20:30,560 Speaker 1: lot of followers, but and maybe I'd have more followers 378 00:20:30,600 --> 00:20:32,040 Speaker 1: if I did more of that. I don't know, but 379 00:20:32,200 --> 00:20:34,280 Speaker 1: I don't care. I'd rather not do it. 380 00:20:34,680 --> 00:20:39,280 Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, I mean fundamentally, it's if my personality is 381 00:20:39,320 --> 00:20:43,439 Speaker 2: not aligned to having like a malicious personal approach to 382 00:20:43,520 --> 00:20:45,679 Speaker 2: these sorts of things. I'm interested in the way that 383 00:20:45,720 --> 00:20:48,960 Speaker 2: the person's thinking. But you know, I do know Lane. 384 00:20:49,000 --> 00:20:51,200 Speaker 2: I've done videos on Lane, I've had Lane on my show, 385 00:20:51,320 --> 00:20:54,000 Speaker 2: so we have an interesting relationship. 386 00:20:54,000 --> 00:20:58,800 Speaker 3: But Lane seeing is rage. His thing is rage and rage. 387 00:20:59,440 --> 00:21:02,480 Speaker 2: It does create clicks and engagement and curiosity because he's 388 00:21:02,520 --> 00:21:06,879 Speaker 2: this crazy, you know, very outgoing scientist that is not 389 00:21:07,000 --> 00:21:11,560 Speaker 2: holding back, and that's his style. My my approach is, 390 00:21:11,680 --> 00:21:14,760 Speaker 2: I'm far more interested in just looking at how this 391 00:21:14,800 --> 00:21:16,120 Speaker 2: person is thinking. 392 00:21:16,320 --> 00:21:20,080 Speaker 3: And like you said, if I can show people how. 393 00:21:19,960 --> 00:21:23,880 Speaker 2: This person is being logically inconsistent, I think that's far 394 00:21:23,960 --> 00:21:27,040 Speaker 2: more valuable than saying, you know, this guy's a dickhead 395 00:21:27,280 --> 00:21:30,480 Speaker 2: and just like having some ad hominem attack, because then 396 00:21:30,640 --> 00:21:34,720 Speaker 2: I think you can immediately discredit my argument the moment 397 00:21:34,720 --> 00:21:37,119 Speaker 2: I attack them as a person. So I do I 398 00:21:37,160 --> 00:21:43,200 Speaker 2: actually do. It's conscious. I consciously try to make sure 399 00:21:43,520 --> 00:21:46,639 Speaker 2: what I'm saying is not a personal attack, and I 400 00:21:46,720 --> 00:21:51,720 Speaker 2: think very deeply about the way that that person is thinking. 401 00:21:52,760 --> 00:21:54,600 Speaker 2: And there's a whole lot of things I'm looking for, 402 00:21:54,680 --> 00:21:57,239 Speaker 2: like certain types of fallacies, you know. 403 00:21:57,440 --> 00:21:58,680 Speaker 3: One of the big ones is. 404 00:22:00,359 --> 00:22:05,520 Speaker 2: Like the naturalistic fallacy that if something is natural, therefore 405 00:22:05,600 --> 00:22:08,680 Speaker 2: it must be good. But you can point out examples 406 00:22:08,720 --> 00:22:13,240 Speaker 2: like heavy metals are natural, yeah, but if mercury poisoning 407 00:22:13,320 --> 00:22:16,760 Speaker 2: is that good? No, Like we can quickly realize that 408 00:22:16,800 --> 00:22:21,920 Speaker 2: these are these are fallacies or logical inconsistencies, like you say, 409 00:22:21,960 --> 00:22:25,320 Speaker 2: where on one day someone points to an animal study 410 00:22:25,600 --> 00:22:29,080 Speaker 2: because the rat study is supporting their position, but then 411 00:22:29,240 --> 00:22:34,840 Speaker 2: a week later they they discredit animal studies and say that, 412 00:22:35,240 --> 00:22:39,840 Speaker 2: you know, animal studies don't translate to humans. And it's like, well, 413 00:22:40,040 --> 00:22:41,159 Speaker 2: how can you have that position? 414 00:22:41,480 --> 00:22:42,400 Speaker 3: Yeah, exactly. 415 00:22:42,680 --> 00:22:45,720 Speaker 1: And I think there are things in you know, not 416 00:22:45,800 --> 00:22:48,959 Speaker 1: just in science but in life which are kind of 417 00:22:49,160 --> 00:22:53,919 Speaker 1: generally in the space of true or helpful, but not 418 00:22:54,040 --> 00:22:56,919 Speaker 1: always you know. And it's like, so for me as 419 00:22:56,920 --> 00:23:02,480 Speaker 1: an excise scientist, when people like this kind of what's 420 00:23:02,520 --> 00:23:05,520 Speaker 1: the best way, too, right, and then fill in the 421 00:23:05,520 --> 00:23:10,119 Speaker 1: blank build strength, improve flexibility, range, movement, power, speed, muscular endurance, 422 00:23:10,119 --> 00:23:13,080 Speaker 1: aerobic endurance or whatever, or what's the best way to 423 00:23:13,560 --> 00:23:16,280 Speaker 1: eat or what's the best whatever, what's the best supplement, 424 00:23:16,400 --> 00:23:19,960 Speaker 1: and so apart from the fact that that's not a 425 00:23:20,000 --> 00:23:23,119 Speaker 1: great question, but you would then go, well, for who, 426 00:23:23,160 --> 00:23:26,359 Speaker 1: because what's going to be optimal in terms of you know, 427 00:23:26,520 --> 00:23:29,880 Speaker 1: nutrition and recovery and exercise and all these various stimuli. 428 00:23:30,280 --> 00:23:31,879 Speaker 1: All these things that I'm going to do to my 429 00:23:31,960 --> 00:23:35,080 Speaker 1: body that might work great for me would be a 430 00:23:35,119 --> 00:23:38,480 Speaker 1: fucking train wreck for Simon because Simon ain't me and 431 00:23:38,520 --> 00:23:41,840 Speaker 1: I ain't him, and so you know that that's when 432 00:23:41,880 --> 00:23:47,199 Speaker 1: I'm I'm trying to help people to understand that. And 433 00:23:47,280 --> 00:23:49,800 Speaker 1: I've had a version of this conversation many times. But like, 434 00:23:49,880 --> 00:23:52,120 Speaker 1: for example, I've got a bunch of motorbikes. I love 435 00:23:52,200 --> 00:23:54,879 Speaker 1: riding motorbikes. For me, it's actually fun and it produces 436 00:23:55,000 --> 00:23:58,320 Speaker 1: like a good biochemical state in my body, and for 437 00:23:58,400 --> 00:24:01,639 Speaker 1: me it's healthy. But for somebody else it produces the 438 00:24:01,760 --> 00:24:05,960 Speaker 1: opposite response. It's actually doing something bad, you know. And 439 00:24:06,000 --> 00:24:09,439 Speaker 1: it's even down to you know, the music that I 440 00:24:09,560 --> 00:24:13,000 Speaker 1: listen to might create a positive internal state for me, 441 00:24:13,720 --> 00:24:16,520 Speaker 1: you know, on a psychological, emotional, and physiological level, but 442 00:24:16,560 --> 00:24:19,679 Speaker 1: the same music for someone else will create the opposite response, 443 00:24:19,840 --> 00:24:22,360 Speaker 1: right and so it's not like is this music good 444 00:24:22,440 --> 00:24:25,840 Speaker 1: or bad? Is this is this approach to nutrition good 445 00:24:25,920 --> 00:24:28,520 Speaker 1: or bad? Is this workout good or bad? But rather 446 00:24:29,200 --> 00:24:32,760 Speaker 1: how does your body respond to that particular thing? And 447 00:24:32,840 --> 00:24:35,919 Speaker 1: I think for me, I'm really excited to try and 448 00:24:36,000 --> 00:24:39,639 Speaker 1: help people to try and understand their own body and 449 00:24:39,680 --> 00:24:42,160 Speaker 1: the way that it acts and reacts around all these 450 00:24:42,200 --> 00:24:45,760 Speaker 1: different variables and go, well, you don't need to be 451 00:24:45,800 --> 00:24:49,000 Speaker 1: a scientist to do something scientific, So why don't you 452 00:24:49,080 --> 00:24:51,960 Speaker 1: leave everything else the same and for the next two 453 00:24:52,000 --> 00:24:55,479 Speaker 1: weeks do X unless it's something ridiculous, but try that. 454 00:24:55,560 --> 00:24:58,520 Speaker 1: Do two weeks of X, don't change anything else. See 455 00:24:58,520 --> 00:25:01,040 Speaker 1: what happens. Your body will tell you. You know, we 456 00:25:01,080 --> 00:25:03,200 Speaker 1: can do that, right right? 457 00:25:03,400 --> 00:25:03,760 Speaker 3: Yeah, I. 458 00:25:05,480 --> 00:25:08,840 Speaker 2: Think we're aligned in the way that we think about that. 459 00:25:08,960 --> 00:25:12,080 Speaker 2: So the way that I look at at least from 460 00:25:12,160 --> 00:25:14,600 Speaker 2: nutrition and to come to sort of come back to 461 00:25:15,240 --> 00:25:18,399 Speaker 2: your point about context, because you said for who, because 462 00:25:18,400 --> 00:25:22,360 Speaker 2: context is always overlooked and in nutrition it's it's for who. 463 00:25:22,560 --> 00:25:24,960 Speaker 2: So like, like you said, what's their goal? So like, 464 00:25:24,960 --> 00:25:27,160 Speaker 2: if you're talking about protein or who are you talking about? 465 00:25:27,280 --> 00:25:29,479 Speaker 2: What does their goal are? 466 00:25:29,520 --> 00:25:29,760 Speaker 3: They? 467 00:25:29,920 --> 00:25:33,720 Speaker 2: Are they an athlete that a strength athlete or are 468 00:25:33,760 --> 00:25:35,840 Speaker 2: they a fifty five year old woman, Like, who are 469 00:25:35,840 --> 00:25:38,800 Speaker 2: you talking about? And then in nutrition, if we're talking 470 00:25:38,800 --> 00:25:41,000 Speaker 2: about anything, whether it's a nutrient or if we're talking 471 00:25:41,000 --> 00:25:43,760 Speaker 2: about a food like eggs or red meat or fish 472 00:25:43,880 --> 00:25:44,880 Speaker 2: or beans. 473 00:25:45,200 --> 00:25:48,359 Speaker 3: Well, what dose are you talking about? How much are 474 00:25:48,400 --> 00:25:49,000 Speaker 3: we talking about? 475 00:25:49,640 --> 00:25:54,240 Speaker 2: And then also in nutrition it's it's it's not like 476 00:25:55,359 --> 00:25:59,600 Speaker 2: you can't have a placebo because when so when when 477 00:25:59,600 --> 00:26:02,960 Speaker 2: you make a food choice, it's usually coming at the 478 00:26:02,960 --> 00:26:06,159 Speaker 2: cost of another food choice. There's an opportunity cost, so 479 00:26:06,200 --> 00:26:09,040 Speaker 2: you have to consider compared to what. Okay, if I'm 480 00:26:09,080 --> 00:26:13,439 Speaker 2: going to eat two hundred calories of beans, is that 481 00:26:13,480 --> 00:26:16,160 Speaker 2: replacing ultra processed food or is that replacing red meat? 482 00:26:16,840 --> 00:26:19,520 Speaker 2: And now you start to see like this is why 483 00:26:19,560 --> 00:26:21,960 Speaker 2: the research can be very confusing, because even at a 484 00:26:22,040 --> 00:26:24,400 Speaker 2: neutrienter of a food level, you have to be considering 485 00:26:24,560 --> 00:26:26,359 Speaker 2: for who does compared to what? 486 00:26:26,880 --> 00:26:27,919 Speaker 3: Every time. 487 00:26:29,240 --> 00:26:31,760 Speaker 2: Or else you can find what seemed to be very 488 00:26:31,800 --> 00:26:39,679 Speaker 2: conflicting studies, conflicting findings. But to your point about personalization, 489 00:26:40,119 --> 00:26:44,080 Speaker 2: So I think one thing that I would put forward 490 00:26:44,680 --> 00:26:47,680 Speaker 2: is that I think I totally agree that people should 491 00:26:47,680 --> 00:26:50,360 Speaker 2: be able to play around and see what works best 492 00:26:50,400 --> 00:26:52,840 Speaker 2: for them, and we might need to find what works 493 00:26:52,840 --> 00:26:53,840 Speaker 2: best for them, Like what is that? 494 00:26:53,840 --> 00:26:55,800 Speaker 3: What are they measuring? Is it just the way they feel? 495 00:26:55,840 --> 00:26:58,240 Speaker 2: Or are they measuring things like in your area, they're 496 00:26:58,240 --> 00:27:00,800 Speaker 2: probably measuring strength or speed or something. 497 00:27:00,560 --> 00:27:01,399 Speaker 3: Like that as well. 498 00:27:03,760 --> 00:27:06,719 Speaker 2: But I do think that sometimes people can hear that 499 00:27:06,760 --> 00:27:09,800 Speaker 2: message and think, oh, right, we're all just so different. 500 00:27:09,960 --> 00:27:13,240 Speaker 2: There's no general principles. I think there are general principles, 501 00:27:13,280 --> 00:27:19,280 Speaker 2: like general heuristics that science has to have been tested 502 00:27:19,359 --> 00:27:21,639 Speaker 2: and we understand that they work most of the time. 503 00:27:22,040 --> 00:27:26,640 Speaker 2: And then from there you personalize so understanding that that 504 00:27:28,119 --> 00:27:31,960 Speaker 2: studies are really telling us the average or typical response. 505 00:27:32,840 --> 00:27:35,600 Speaker 2: And you can imagine like a bell curve. Okay, we 506 00:27:35,680 --> 00:27:39,720 Speaker 2: all fall somewhere on the Bell curve, right, but we're 507 00:27:39,760 --> 00:27:42,000 Speaker 2: not average. I mean we could be, but we're probably 508 00:27:42,040 --> 00:27:43,840 Speaker 2: not average right at the middle of the Bell curve. 509 00:27:44,240 --> 00:27:49,360 Speaker 2: We could be somewhere along there. So where our own experience, 510 00:27:49,640 --> 00:27:52,399 Speaker 2: what we get from making some dietary change or some 511 00:27:52,480 --> 00:27:56,199 Speaker 2: exercise change may not be represented in the average from 512 00:27:56,240 --> 00:27:59,680 Speaker 2: a clinical study. Does that make sense to you, Yeah, 513 00:27:59,800 --> 00:28:03,040 Speaker 2: So what we're putting forward at a public health recommendation 514 00:28:03,280 --> 00:28:05,800 Speaker 2: is based on the average. So then I think that 515 00:28:05,840 --> 00:28:10,120 Speaker 2: those are generally good guidelines, and from their people personalize 516 00:28:10,280 --> 00:28:13,320 Speaker 2: and find a way that's working best for them, and 517 00:28:13,359 --> 00:28:16,240 Speaker 2: then that brings us to what is working best, like, 518 00:28:16,320 --> 00:28:19,119 Speaker 2: how do you actually define that or measure it at 519 00:28:19,119 --> 00:28:20,040 Speaker 2: an individual level? 520 00:28:20,720 --> 00:28:25,400 Speaker 1: I love it. I've been taking a slight left turn. 521 00:28:25,480 --> 00:28:28,800 Speaker 1: But when I was when I was a kid, I 522 00:28:28,840 --> 00:28:31,159 Speaker 1: was morbidly obese. Right, So I was the fattest kid 523 00:28:31,240 --> 00:28:33,720 Speaker 1: in my school and my name at school was Jumbo. Right, 524 00:28:33,760 --> 00:28:38,560 Speaker 1: this is pretty political correctness. So as I sit here today, 525 00:28:38,720 --> 00:28:42,239 Speaker 1: I'm eighty one or eighty two kilos, and back then 526 00:28:42,280 --> 00:28:44,600 Speaker 1: I was around ninety ninety one ninety two when I 527 00:28:44,600 --> 00:28:47,960 Speaker 1: was fourteen years old, and about five inches shorter, right, 528 00:28:48,000 --> 00:28:50,400 Speaker 1: so I was a big kid and all of this stuff. Anyway, 529 00:28:50,520 --> 00:28:53,200 Speaker 1: I have this without boring you and my listeners for 530 00:28:53,200 --> 00:28:55,320 Speaker 1: the million at the time. But this, you know, this 531 00:28:55,400 --> 00:28:59,080 Speaker 1: moment in time, something happened wasn't horrendous, but it was 532 00:28:59,160 --> 00:29:05,480 Speaker 1: just like for me psychologically, emotionally and sociologically pretty uncomfortable, 533 00:29:06,280 --> 00:29:08,960 Speaker 1: and I just went fuck it, like a switch flicked. 534 00:29:08,960 --> 00:29:10,920 Speaker 1: And that's when and then I lost a whole lot 535 00:29:10,920 --> 00:29:14,960 Speaker 1: of weight in a relatively short time. And around that 536 00:29:15,560 --> 00:29:18,080 Speaker 1: was apart from the weight loss and all those good things. 537 00:29:18,120 --> 00:29:20,160 Speaker 1: And you know, I was fitter, and I was healthier, 538 00:29:20,200 --> 00:29:24,200 Speaker 1: and I was more aware, but mentally, emotionally and socially, 539 00:29:24,440 --> 00:29:28,200 Speaker 1: like my world changed quite dramatically. And so I've always 540 00:29:28,240 --> 00:29:34,080 Speaker 1: been interested in the psychology for one of a better term, 541 00:29:34,160 --> 00:29:38,320 Speaker 1: the psychology of getting in shape right, and understanding the 542 00:29:38,440 --> 00:29:41,640 Speaker 1: role that my mind plays in physiology and whether that's 543 00:29:41,720 --> 00:29:46,280 Speaker 1: nutrition or sleep or stress, anxiety or training or adaptation, 544 00:29:46,440 --> 00:29:49,600 Speaker 1: physical you know, strength, power, all those things, but trying 545 00:29:49,600 --> 00:29:52,520 Speaker 1: to understand my mind around all of this. And so 546 00:29:53,720 --> 00:29:58,280 Speaker 1: I always had this fucking tempestuous relationship with food, right, 547 00:29:58,320 --> 00:30:02,080 Speaker 1: because for me, food was like because I've never smoked, 548 00:30:02,200 --> 00:30:04,760 Speaker 1: never drunk never, I've never been drunk, I've never had 549 00:30:04,760 --> 00:30:08,320 Speaker 1: a beer, I've never been high, right, so whatever that 550 00:30:08,400 --> 00:30:11,960 Speaker 1: means good, bad, boring. But for me, like food was 551 00:30:12,080 --> 00:30:14,120 Speaker 1: like my drug. I would eat food all the time 552 00:30:14,160 --> 00:30:16,360 Speaker 1: that I didn't need because it made me feel fucking 553 00:30:16,400 --> 00:30:20,640 Speaker 1: great in the moment. You know, do you think that 554 00:30:21,320 --> 00:30:25,080 Speaker 1: apart from the knowledge of this is this is what 555 00:30:25,120 --> 00:30:28,920 Speaker 1: food is about? Or here's some information on micros and 556 00:30:28,960 --> 00:30:31,840 Speaker 1: macros and intimate and fasting and all of these other 557 00:30:31,920 --> 00:30:35,800 Speaker 1: things that we explore. Do you ever open the door 558 00:30:35,840 --> 00:30:41,040 Speaker 1: on what I call our relationship with food, like the sociology, psychology, 559 00:30:41,160 --> 00:30:45,280 Speaker 1: and emotion that kind of intersects with all of that 560 00:30:45,360 --> 00:30:48,240 Speaker 1: and in many ways for many of us, dictates what 561 00:30:48,320 --> 00:30:49,520 Speaker 1: we do and how we do it. 562 00:30:51,080 --> 00:30:53,520 Speaker 2: I mean, what you were talking about, I think is 563 00:30:54,000 --> 00:30:57,240 Speaker 2: a huge reason why there's so much quote unquote yo 564 00:30:57,320 --> 00:31:01,640 Speaker 2: yo dieting or way. You know, diets don't don't often 565 00:31:01,680 --> 00:31:03,800 Speaker 2: work long term, and you see that in the research 566 00:31:03,800 --> 00:31:06,960 Speaker 2: when you look at weight loss, you see, you know, 567 00:31:07,280 --> 00:31:10,000 Speaker 2: we're actually pretty good at losing weight in the first 568 00:31:10,240 --> 00:31:15,280 Speaker 2: three or six months we are, and there's it's probably 569 00:31:15,320 --> 00:31:19,560 Speaker 2: some short term willpower, right, But then what you tend 570 00:31:19,560 --> 00:31:22,440 Speaker 2: to see is that you know, by two years, most 571 00:31:22,480 --> 00:31:25,320 Speaker 2: of that weight has come back on off and often 572 00:31:25,440 --> 00:31:30,120 Speaker 2: more so. I you you just mentioned there that it 573 00:31:30,160 --> 00:31:34,320 Speaker 2: was like a switch flicked, So I'm interested, like, what 574 00:31:34,720 --> 00:31:37,520 Speaker 2: have you gone back and double clicked on that and 575 00:31:37,720 --> 00:31:41,000 Speaker 2: thought about what was that switch? What was what was 576 00:31:41,080 --> 00:31:44,680 Speaker 2: underlying that that led to sustainable changes to the way 577 00:31:44,680 --> 00:31:45,360 Speaker 2: that you were eating. 578 00:31:46,120 --> 00:31:53,800 Speaker 1: Yeah, So for me, it was uh, embarrassment, humiliation, I guess, 579 00:31:53,840 --> 00:31:58,640 Speaker 1: a moment of self awareness and like I just and no, 580 00:31:58,840 --> 00:32:00,760 Speaker 1: by the way, it was a hundred me. I didn't 581 00:32:00,760 --> 00:32:03,560 Speaker 1: get bullied or anything, but I just had this moment 582 00:32:03,600 --> 00:32:07,040 Speaker 1: in time at the year eight swimming sports where like 583 00:32:07,720 --> 00:32:09,840 Speaker 1: I had a bit of a wake up call. But 584 00:32:11,360 --> 00:32:16,880 Speaker 1: for me, that that very like I remember feeling. I 585 00:32:16,920 --> 00:32:20,320 Speaker 1: had this feeling that was and I know it's like 586 00:32:20,920 --> 00:32:23,800 Speaker 1: it's disproportionate when you look in the context of life 587 00:32:23,800 --> 00:32:26,120 Speaker 1: in the world and people with real problems which I 588 00:32:26,160 --> 00:32:29,760 Speaker 1: didn't have. But to me at that as that fourteen 589 00:32:29,840 --> 00:32:33,400 Speaker 1: year old fat kid, that was so fucking painful that 590 00:32:33,520 --> 00:32:37,080 Speaker 1: I just went, this is never happening again. I'm never 591 00:32:37,120 --> 00:32:39,680 Speaker 1: doing this again. I'm never going to have this experience again. 592 00:32:40,680 --> 00:32:43,360 Speaker 1: Like I associated more pain with staying in it than 593 00:32:43,400 --> 00:32:46,160 Speaker 1: getting out of it. So whatever I need to do 594 00:32:46,760 --> 00:32:50,600 Speaker 1: to not be this to not be. And for me, honestly, 595 00:32:50,640 --> 00:32:52,960 Speaker 1: it was more about aesthetics at that stage, because I 596 00:32:53,080 --> 00:32:56,680 Speaker 1: just to me anyway, I looked fucking hideous. And I 597 00:32:56,720 --> 00:32:59,160 Speaker 1: know people go, oh, no, don't say it, but that's 598 00:32:59,200 --> 00:33:02,920 Speaker 1: how I felt, right. So of course, the you know, 599 00:33:02,960 --> 00:33:06,440 Speaker 1: the physiological benefits were great, but I was actually driven 600 00:33:06,480 --> 00:33:09,760 Speaker 1: more by self esteem and ego or low self esteem 601 00:33:09,800 --> 00:33:12,880 Speaker 1: and and just wanting to be liked and loved and 602 00:33:12,960 --> 00:33:16,040 Speaker 1: valued and accepted, and to look not like I looked, 603 00:33:16,200 --> 00:33:18,960 Speaker 1: so that I'd be more normal. So that was for me. 604 00:33:19,080 --> 00:33:23,080 Speaker 1: It was like it was very much these internal emotional 605 00:33:23,080 --> 00:33:24,360 Speaker 1: and psychological drivers. 606 00:33:24,400 --> 00:33:31,440 Speaker 2: Yeah, so the the pain of the embarrassment outweighed the 607 00:33:32,280 --> 00:33:36,560 Speaker 2: instantaneous comfort that you were getting from eating. Do you 608 00:33:36,800 --> 00:33:41,720 Speaker 2: do you recall go back further? Do you recall when 609 00:33:42,240 --> 00:33:44,560 Speaker 2: you started to gain weight? How old you were? 610 00:33:45,440 --> 00:33:49,320 Speaker 1: Yeah, I was probably about seven or eight, and I 611 00:33:49,440 --> 00:33:52,320 Speaker 1: just yeah, I just I just ate everything that wasn't 612 00:33:52,440 --> 00:33:53,080 Speaker 1: nailed down. 613 00:33:53,280 --> 00:33:55,560 Speaker 2: And why do you think? Why do you think that 614 00:33:55,760 --> 00:33:58,320 Speaker 2: was that something that you've gone back and looked at. 615 00:33:58,840 --> 00:34:03,160 Speaker 4: That's a good question, doctor to fil So, you told 616 00:34:03,200 --> 00:34:06,240 Speaker 4: me at the beginning, just to be clear, grag you said, mate, 617 00:34:06,440 --> 00:34:09,240 Speaker 4: feel free to ask me any questions everyone. 618 00:34:09,400 --> 00:34:11,840 Speaker 1: I totally gave him, And in fact I liked that that. 619 00:34:11,880 --> 00:34:14,160 Speaker 1: I not that anyone needs to know about me, but 620 00:34:14,200 --> 00:34:16,919 Speaker 1: it's I did say to Simon, I said, everyone, let's 621 00:34:16,960 --> 00:34:19,360 Speaker 1: have a conversation. It doesn't need to be his question. 622 00:34:19,440 --> 00:34:21,560 Speaker 1: Here's an answer for an hour. No, but I think 623 00:34:21,560 --> 00:34:24,120 Speaker 1: they are good questions. Look, I really don't know, but 624 00:34:24,200 --> 00:34:28,240 Speaker 1: I think that, like, I went to something like nine 625 00:34:28,280 --> 00:34:31,480 Speaker 1: schools and my parents we moved a lot. I was 626 00:34:31,520 --> 00:34:35,480 Speaker 1: an only kid. I'm still an only kid. I was 627 00:34:35,520 --> 00:34:39,960 Speaker 1: by myself a lot. My parents were amazing, but they worked, 628 00:34:40,040 --> 00:34:42,040 Speaker 1: so I would get home from school at three thirty 629 00:34:42,120 --> 00:34:44,120 Speaker 1: or four and they would get home at six thirty 630 00:34:44,200 --> 00:34:46,680 Speaker 1: or seven or whatever. So I spent a lot of 631 00:34:46,680 --> 00:34:50,240 Speaker 1: time alone, and I was probably a little bit socially 632 00:34:50,280 --> 00:34:54,200 Speaker 1: disconnected and isolated, especially in the younger years kind of 633 00:34:54,400 --> 00:34:59,799 Speaker 1: you know, seven through ten, eleven, twelve, and I you know, 634 00:35:00,040 --> 00:35:03,520 Speaker 1: I just I just fed myself and it's like, you know, 635 00:35:03,760 --> 00:35:07,080 Speaker 1: that little dopamine kind of moment was pretty good, and 636 00:35:07,160 --> 00:35:07,920 Speaker 1: I'd feel. 637 00:35:07,800 --> 00:35:11,560 Speaker 2: Sure you were maybe getting some comfort, some comfort from 638 00:35:11,640 --> 00:35:13,080 Speaker 2: those foods in the moment. 639 00:35:13,480 --> 00:35:16,520 Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, just I mean the simplest of answers is 640 00:35:17,120 --> 00:35:19,839 Speaker 1: I felt good doing that. So I did that, you know, 641 00:35:20,120 --> 00:35:24,680 Speaker 1: and it's yeah, but I that's why for me, when 642 00:35:24,680 --> 00:35:30,760 Speaker 1: I'm talking about weight loss for a body or body 643 00:35:30,800 --> 00:35:34,400 Speaker 1: composition or changing you know, changing how we look feel 644 00:35:34,400 --> 00:35:36,759 Speaker 1: functional that with I always say to people, yeah, I'm 645 00:35:36,800 --> 00:35:39,960 Speaker 1: excise scientists, but I'm also talking to you experientially and 646 00:35:40,000 --> 00:35:42,240 Speaker 1: not just with the thousands of people that I've trained, 647 00:35:42,280 --> 00:35:46,240 Speaker 1: but also as a person who is not genetically gifted, 648 00:35:46,800 --> 00:35:49,840 Speaker 1: does not have still does not have massive self esteem, 649 00:35:50,440 --> 00:35:53,560 Speaker 1: you know, for me to be you know, for me 650 00:35:53,640 --> 00:35:57,200 Speaker 1: to be at sixty one with not great genetics and 651 00:35:57,280 --> 00:35:59,839 Speaker 1: pretty fit and pretty strong and pretty lean. For me, 652 00:36:00,040 --> 00:36:04,880 Speaker 1: it's and I've created a you know, an operating system 653 00:36:04,920 --> 00:36:07,839 Speaker 1: that's automatic. So there's not a lot of willpower or 654 00:36:07,880 --> 00:36:11,879 Speaker 1: sacrifice or discipline. But it's taken forever to be able 655 00:36:11,880 --> 00:36:13,600 Speaker 1: to figure out how to make this thing that I 656 00:36:13,640 --> 00:36:16,359 Speaker 1: live in work really well, you know, And I think 657 00:36:16,400 --> 00:36:19,560 Speaker 1: that's one of the challenges is which we you know, 658 00:36:19,719 --> 00:36:22,799 Speaker 1: kind of talking about a minute ago, But how do 659 00:36:22,880 --> 00:36:26,400 Speaker 1: I build a you know, an automatic kind of operating 660 00:36:26,440 --> 00:36:29,799 Speaker 1: system that that just works for my body? Like, what's 661 00:36:29,840 --> 00:36:32,880 Speaker 1: the thing that I do sometimes when I'm in the 662 00:36:32,920 --> 00:36:36,319 Speaker 1: middle of inspiration or motivation or whatever that actually just 663 00:36:36,400 --> 00:36:39,040 Speaker 1: needs to be in all the time, non negotiable, you know. 664 00:36:39,120 --> 00:36:41,480 Speaker 1: So this is and when I do this thing, I 665 00:36:41,520 --> 00:36:43,719 Speaker 1: don't need a round of applause or a trophy or 666 00:36:43,760 --> 00:36:46,799 Speaker 1: an accolade. No, this is just me doing the thing 667 00:36:46,840 --> 00:36:51,160 Speaker 1: that I need to do. So, yeah, it's that that's 668 00:36:51,160 --> 00:36:53,319 Speaker 1: what it's been for me. Anyway. For me, staying in 669 00:36:53,360 --> 00:36:55,840 Speaker 1: shape is the first book I wrote was about the 670 00:36:55,840 --> 00:37:00,560 Speaker 1: psychology of getting in shape, and I didn't even really 671 00:37:00,640 --> 00:37:02,799 Speaker 1: understand fully what I was writing about, but I knew 672 00:37:02,840 --> 00:37:05,879 Speaker 1: that for me it was it was almost a psychological 673 00:37:05,920 --> 00:37:12,000 Speaker 1: emotional process with a physical outcome. Even though people would 674 00:37:12,000 --> 00:37:14,920 Speaker 1: think changing your body is all about your body, for me, 675 00:37:15,280 --> 00:37:15,800 Speaker 1: not really. 676 00:37:17,080 --> 00:37:19,160 Speaker 2: No, there's a there's a huge I mean, I think 677 00:37:20,200 --> 00:37:22,960 Speaker 2: I think anyone listening to this will will appreciate how 678 00:37:23,000 --> 00:37:25,920 Speaker 2: complex this is, right, because everyone has their own story, 679 00:37:26,200 --> 00:37:28,720 Speaker 2: and people are really struggling out there. People are really 680 00:37:28,840 --> 00:37:35,200 Speaker 2: really struggling. And sure, we live in an environment where 681 00:37:35,600 --> 00:37:41,160 Speaker 2: a food environment, where there is an abundance of indulgent 682 00:37:41,400 --> 00:37:45,560 Speaker 2: foods that hijack the reward centers of our brain. They 683 00:37:45,600 --> 00:37:49,719 Speaker 2: give us a reward that is unlike anything our ancestors 684 00:37:49,719 --> 00:37:51,120 Speaker 2: would have had, right, and. 685 00:37:51,080 --> 00:37:53,360 Speaker 3: We don't have to work for it. We don't have 686 00:37:53,400 --> 00:37:54,080 Speaker 3: to work for it. 687 00:37:54,719 --> 00:37:58,279 Speaker 2: And so if you, I mean, this is a bit, 688 00:37:58,320 --> 00:38:00,560 Speaker 2: this takes us to a whole another question. But you 689 00:38:00,560 --> 00:38:05,040 Speaker 2: mentioned the word willpower. Yeah, And a question that I 690 00:38:05,120 --> 00:38:12,080 Speaker 2: often get is do we lack willpower? Is that why 691 00:38:12,160 --> 00:38:14,560 Speaker 2: we're unhealthy? Is that why so many people are unhealthy, 692 00:38:15,440 --> 00:38:18,479 Speaker 2: and I don't know if I don't think I don't 693 00:38:18,480 --> 00:38:19,799 Speaker 2: think it is a lack of willpower. 694 00:38:21,400 --> 00:38:24,120 Speaker 3: You know, if you if you could take let's say 695 00:38:24,160 --> 00:38:24,880 Speaker 3: you take. 696 00:38:25,120 --> 00:38:27,080 Speaker 2: One of the healthiest populations in the world, like the 697 00:38:27,160 --> 00:38:31,320 Speaker 2: elders in Japan or some of there, like some of 698 00:38:30,760 --> 00:38:32,520 Speaker 2: the Greeks. 699 00:38:33,120 --> 00:38:33,799 Speaker 1: Yeah, I don't. 700 00:38:34,040 --> 00:38:36,719 Speaker 2: I don't think that they're healthier because they have fundamentally 701 00:38:36,719 --> 00:38:39,879 Speaker 2: that these are people that have more willpower. I think 702 00:38:39,880 --> 00:38:42,480 Speaker 2: they're healthier because they live in an environment that is 703 00:38:42,560 --> 00:38:45,719 Speaker 2: conducive to the healthy choice they're probably they live in 704 00:38:45,800 --> 00:38:50,240 Speaker 2: an environment that is arguably better for mental health, psychological wellbeing. 705 00:38:50,640 --> 00:38:52,719 Speaker 3: They live in an environment. 706 00:38:52,320 --> 00:38:57,520 Speaker 2: That's better for physical activity, that doesn't have the same 707 00:38:57,560 --> 00:39:01,120 Speaker 2: amount of century lifestyle that we have, and they live 708 00:39:01,120 --> 00:39:07,680 Speaker 2: in an environment where the convenient and cheap food choice 709 00:39:07,719 --> 00:39:11,759 Speaker 2: is also the healthy food choice, whereas we live in 710 00:39:11,800 --> 00:39:17,240 Speaker 2: an environment where people are under an enormous amount of stress. 711 00:39:17,400 --> 00:39:25,960 Speaker 2: So there's you know, mental health pandemic, there is you know, 712 00:39:27,400 --> 00:39:32,799 Speaker 2: sky high rates of loneliness and isolation. And then on 713 00:39:32,880 --> 00:39:35,520 Speaker 2: top of that, so you take these people who who 714 00:39:36,480 --> 00:39:38,799 Speaker 2: do not have optimal mental health and put them in 715 00:39:38,840 --> 00:39:43,680 Speaker 2: an environment where they're tempted by all of these very 716 00:39:43,760 --> 00:39:48,600 Speaker 2: high calorie dense foods that are ultra processed and contain 717 00:39:48,640 --> 00:39:52,120 Speaker 2: all sorts of additives that, as I said, hijack these 718 00:39:52,160 --> 00:39:56,560 Speaker 2: reward systems, and it's a recipe for chronic disease. And 719 00:39:56,600 --> 00:39:59,000 Speaker 2: so to unravel that, I agree with you. I think 720 00:39:59,000 --> 00:40:03,600 Speaker 2: to unravel that, A we have to think about the 721 00:40:03,640 --> 00:40:06,880 Speaker 2: way our society is set up to foster better mental 722 00:40:06,880 --> 00:40:13,200 Speaker 2: health from early age, from early age, and hand in hand, 723 00:40:13,239 --> 00:40:15,799 Speaker 2: you have to change the way society is set up 724 00:40:16,239 --> 00:40:20,840 Speaker 2: to reduce the century lifestyle that we're seeing, and to 725 00:40:20,960 --> 00:40:25,480 Speaker 2: change the food environment. Simply asking people to make the 726 00:40:25,520 --> 00:40:29,719 Speaker 2: healthy food choice. In a food environment like we live in, 727 00:40:30,160 --> 00:40:33,200 Speaker 2: it's hard, right. There is a small percentage of people 728 00:40:33,239 --> 00:40:36,399 Speaker 2: that can develop the willpower to do that, no doubt 729 00:40:36,440 --> 00:40:38,400 Speaker 2: about it. You can look around, you can find examples, 730 00:40:39,040 --> 00:40:43,960 Speaker 2: but most people can't. And so there has to be 731 00:40:44,480 --> 00:40:46,439 Speaker 2: sure there has to be effort at the individual level. 732 00:40:46,480 --> 00:40:48,400 Speaker 3: But in order to really. 733 00:40:48,040 --> 00:40:49,799 Speaker 2: Tackle what we're talking about here, there has to be 734 00:40:49,840 --> 00:40:53,799 Speaker 2: some very big, community wide, government led shifts as well. 735 00:40:54,960 --> 00:40:59,680 Speaker 1: Yeah, I agree. What interests me too is, like you know, 736 00:40:59,719 --> 00:41:04,840 Speaker 1: with will power, self control, discipline, inspiration, motivation, all of 737 00:41:04,880 --> 00:41:11,560 Speaker 1: those variables, right, it's we kind of hot hold those 738 00:41:11,600 --> 00:41:16,440 Speaker 1: in high regard sometimes and I always say to people, look, 739 00:41:16,480 --> 00:41:19,600 Speaker 1: when you're inspired and motivated, ride that wave to the beach. Right, 740 00:41:19,640 --> 00:41:25,000 Speaker 1: that's great. But you know, I often get introduced corporately 741 00:41:25,120 --> 00:41:28,160 Speaker 1: as a motivational speaker, which I fucking hate. But anyway, 742 00:41:28,480 --> 00:41:31,440 Speaker 1: if it gets me work, if it gets me gigs, 743 00:41:31,520 --> 00:41:34,120 Speaker 1: keep doing it. Right. But people are surprised when I 744 00:41:34,200 --> 00:41:39,160 Speaker 1: say motivation is motivation is different things too, But in 745 00:41:39,200 --> 00:41:41,759 Speaker 1: the context of this chat, we're talking about that emotional, 746 00:41:42,320 --> 00:41:47,720 Speaker 1: heightened inspired state of motivation. You know, it comes and goes, 747 00:41:47,880 --> 00:41:50,719 Speaker 1: and for many people, when the motivation goes, the behaviors go, 748 00:41:50,880 --> 00:41:53,720 Speaker 1: so therefore the results go. And then there's three months 749 00:41:53,719 --> 00:41:55,759 Speaker 1: of fucking around and then they're like they have of 750 00:41:55,800 --> 00:41:58,520 Speaker 1: some kind of revelation and then they're inspired again for 751 00:41:58,600 --> 00:42:01,759 Speaker 1: three weeks and then and then they're fifty and then 752 00:42:01,760 --> 00:42:03,719 Speaker 1: they sit in front of me and say, this wasn't 753 00:42:03,719 --> 00:42:06,840 Speaker 1: my plan, And I say, can I see the plan? 754 00:42:06,960 --> 00:42:08,880 Speaker 1: They're like, what I go the plan of which you 755 00:42:08,920 --> 00:42:11,719 Speaker 1: speak grasshopper, can I see it? And there is no 756 00:42:11,880 --> 00:42:14,880 Speaker 1: fucking plan. There was just an idea of how things 757 00:42:14,880 --> 00:42:18,160 Speaker 1: would turn out, right, And so I say to people 758 00:42:18,239 --> 00:42:21,960 Speaker 1: all the time, you know, inspiration and motivation and even 759 00:42:22,000 --> 00:42:24,120 Speaker 1: discipline and self control will power all of those things. 760 00:42:24,120 --> 00:42:26,719 Speaker 1: They're definitely not bad things, of course, but they're not 761 00:42:26,719 --> 00:42:30,000 Speaker 1: the solution. They're not the answer. I'm more interested in 762 00:42:30,040 --> 00:42:32,280 Speaker 1: what you can do when you're not inspired and motivated. 763 00:42:32,880 --> 00:42:34,680 Speaker 1: I'm more interested in what you can do when you 764 00:42:34,760 --> 00:42:37,720 Speaker 1: don't feel like it, when it's inconvenient, when it's painful, 765 00:42:37,719 --> 00:42:40,360 Speaker 1: when it's not fun, when it's not quick, when no 766 00:42:40,400 --> 00:42:43,239 Speaker 1: one's looking, when no one's giving you a fucking round 767 00:42:43,239 --> 00:42:45,960 Speaker 1: of applause or a medal, and it's And I know 768 00:42:46,080 --> 00:42:50,440 Speaker 1: this is a little bit hardcore, but there everything that 769 00:42:50,480 --> 00:42:53,840 Speaker 1: you said about environment I agree with. But most of 770 00:42:53,920 --> 00:42:57,839 Speaker 1: us don't live in that environment, so we go all right. Nonetheless, 771 00:42:58,600 --> 00:43:03,440 Speaker 1: I'm in this environment that isn't conducive. So in this environment, 772 00:43:03,520 --> 00:43:06,200 Speaker 1: in this reality that I do live, and we don't 773 00:43:06,239 --> 00:43:08,719 Speaker 1: need to be fucking Olympians or live on lettuce and 774 00:43:09,200 --> 00:43:12,399 Speaker 1: meditate in a cave. But in the context of where 775 00:43:12,440 --> 00:43:15,280 Speaker 1: I am, what can I do? 776 00:43:15,280 --> 00:43:15,600 Speaker 3: Do you know? 777 00:43:16,080 --> 00:43:16,279 Speaker 2: Right? 778 00:43:16,600 --> 00:43:16,839 Speaker 3: Yeah? 779 00:43:16,880 --> 00:43:21,480 Speaker 2: No, I know exactly so, And I think I distill 780 00:43:21,560 --> 00:43:24,319 Speaker 2: this down to having intention So go back to what 781 00:43:24,360 --> 00:43:27,759 Speaker 2: I just said about those populations, where like it's just 782 00:43:27,880 --> 00:43:30,440 Speaker 2: naturally they're making the healthy decision without him thinking about it. 783 00:43:30,520 --> 00:43:33,840 Speaker 2: These people aren't listening to podcasts, right, it's just the 784 00:43:33,840 --> 00:43:34,440 Speaker 2: way it is. 785 00:43:34,920 --> 00:43:39,120 Speaker 3: So I like it. I like it. I kind of compare. 786 00:43:38,920 --> 00:43:43,000 Speaker 2: Our society to theirs by thinking about their society as 787 00:43:43,000 --> 00:43:47,600 Speaker 2: a labyrinth. So a labyrinth is designed it it's actually 788 00:43:47,640 --> 00:43:50,840 Speaker 2: a mindfulness practice. There's one way in and one way out. 789 00:43:51,040 --> 00:43:53,919 Speaker 2: You don't have to make any decisions, just walk through 790 00:43:53,960 --> 00:43:57,760 Speaker 2: it and you will you will find your way. 791 00:43:57,560 --> 00:43:58,360 Speaker 3: Out the other side. 792 00:43:59,120 --> 00:44:02,360 Speaker 2: Yeah, their society is like a labyrinth, whereas ours is 793 00:44:02,360 --> 00:44:07,360 Speaker 2: like a maze. Right, it's very easy to get lost, okay, 794 00:44:07,400 --> 00:44:10,839 Speaker 2: And so you need intention, you need you need some 795 00:44:10,880 --> 00:44:14,520 Speaker 2: information because like it, like you said, so, our society 796 00:44:14,600 --> 00:44:16,520 Speaker 2: is not going to change overnight. We live in a maze. 797 00:44:16,920 --> 00:44:19,359 Speaker 2: That's that's the cards we've been dealt. So you need 798 00:44:19,360 --> 00:44:22,600 Speaker 2: some intention so that as you get to that that juncture, 799 00:44:23,040 --> 00:44:25,800 Speaker 2: you have a little whisper in your ear. Turn right, okay, 800 00:44:25,840 --> 00:44:29,000 Speaker 2: turn right, okay, turn left, and so you have some 801 00:44:29,040 --> 00:44:31,800 Speaker 2: guide it so you can guide your way out of 802 00:44:31,840 --> 00:44:38,040 Speaker 2: the maze and achieve good health. Essentially, and I mean 803 00:44:38,360 --> 00:44:42,160 Speaker 2: I I developed a completely free program called the Living 804 00:44:42,160 --> 00:44:45,120 Speaker 2: Proof Challenge, and there's a PDF on my website. People 805 00:44:45,160 --> 00:44:49,600 Speaker 2: can people can go and download it. It's free, there's 806 00:44:49,760 --> 00:44:53,279 Speaker 2: no catches, no cost. And the whole premise of that 807 00:44:53,440 --> 00:44:56,000 Speaker 2: challenge was exactly what we're talking about, Craig. It was like, 808 00:44:56,400 --> 00:44:59,680 Speaker 2: what are the if you distilled it down from a lifestyle, 809 00:45:00,400 --> 00:45:03,600 Speaker 2: what are like, what are the handful of things that 810 00:45:04,680 --> 00:45:08,080 Speaker 2: would be good for people to test? Okay, so they 811 00:45:08,160 --> 00:45:11,600 Speaker 2: kind of understand where the hell's are today, and then 812 00:45:12,120 --> 00:45:13,919 Speaker 2: what are the handful of things that would be good 813 00:45:13,920 --> 00:45:16,480 Speaker 2: for people to in their lifestyle? 814 00:45:16,520 --> 00:45:21,880 Speaker 3: Adopt? Yeah, test, intervene, and then retest. 815 00:45:23,000 --> 00:45:26,279 Speaker 2: Just setting people up with a very simple essentially like 816 00:45:26,360 --> 00:45:31,240 Speaker 2: those whispers, to say, hey, you are your your unique, 817 00:45:31,239 --> 00:45:32,680 Speaker 2: so we're going to test you just so you can 818 00:45:32,680 --> 00:45:34,640 Speaker 2: see where you're at with these important things that we 819 00:45:34,760 --> 00:45:38,160 Speaker 2: know predict good long term health, and then you're going 820 00:45:38,239 --> 00:45:41,560 Speaker 2: to change some of your lifestyle, knowing that it doesn't 821 00:45:41,600 --> 00:45:44,400 Speaker 2: have to be perfect, right, there's no point being perfect 822 00:45:44,400 --> 00:45:48,040 Speaker 2: for two weeks. Let's commit to being imperfect for the 823 00:45:48,080 --> 00:45:52,320 Speaker 2: next three, four, five decades. Okay, we're all going to 824 00:45:52,360 --> 00:45:54,600 Speaker 2: have We're all going to have days where we fumble 825 00:45:55,239 --> 00:45:58,920 Speaker 2: whatever that we're human, and then a retest. And so 826 00:45:59,000 --> 00:46:01,760 Speaker 2: you have this model where you can just continually assess 827 00:46:01,840 --> 00:46:07,680 Speaker 2: how you're going with very simplified kind of template of 828 00:46:08,480 --> 00:46:10,799 Speaker 2: key things to measure that we know predict your risk 829 00:46:10,840 --> 00:46:13,840 Speaker 2: of chronic disease and longevity. Yeah, and so that was 830 00:46:13,920 --> 00:46:19,239 Speaker 2: my kind of simple, quote unquote simple solution to this 831 00:46:19,560 --> 00:46:23,680 Speaker 2: complex problem that you just describe so eloquently when you 832 00:46:23,719 --> 00:46:26,040 Speaker 2: said that this is the environment we have and it's 833 00:46:26,080 --> 00:46:26,640 Speaker 2: not changing. 834 00:46:27,400 --> 00:46:27,640 Speaker 3: Yeah. 835 00:46:27,920 --> 00:46:30,319 Speaker 1: Yeah, And I mean we'll wind up in a minute 836 00:46:30,320 --> 00:46:32,840 Speaker 1: because you're a busy man, and so I appreciate you. Fuck, 837 00:46:33,920 --> 00:46:35,719 Speaker 1: I've got a hard crush on you. I don't want 838 00:46:35,719 --> 00:46:37,839 Speaker 1: you to be uncomfortable with that, but you're really good 839 00:46:37,880 --> 00:46:42,960 Speaker 1: to got a man crush. You know. Another interesting thing 840 00:46:43,080 --> 00:46:45,920 Speaker 1: Simon for me is when you know people can't get 841 00:46:45,920 --> 00:46:50,000 Speaker 1: their shit together right and they're they're struggling, and it's 842 00:46:50,040 --> 00:46:52,000 Speaker 1: like they start, they stop, they're in the zone, they're 843 00:46:52,040 --> 00:46:54,000 Speaker 1: out of the zone. They lose a bit, they gain 844 00:46:54,040 --> 00:46:57,279 Speaker 1: a bit, they get fitter, they get unfitter, and then 845 00:46:57,280 --> 00:47:00,120 Speaker 1: they do nothing for six months. And that was my dad, 846 00:47:00,000 --> 00:47:03,680 Speaker 1: and my dad had a heart attack at seventy two 847 00:47:04,000 --> 00:47:06,759 Speaker 1: and died and was revived multiple times. So he's now 848 00:47:06,760 --> 00:47:09,520 Speaker 1: eighty five. So that was thirteen years ago. And obviously, 849 00:47:09,600 --> 00:47:11,759 Speaker 1: having me as a son, I was always pestering him 850 00:47:11,760 --> 00:47:15,120 Speaker 1: about his habits, behavior's, lifestyle, you know, fat gut all that, 851 00:47:15,160 --> 00:47:20,920 Speaker 1: because I'm a sympathetic son in love of course. But 852 00:47:20,960 --> 00:47:23,720 Speaker 1: then the guy who was always like yeah, yeah, and yep, 853 00:47:23,760 --> 00:47:26,960 Speaker 1: and I did yeah. You know, as soon as he 854 00:47:27,000 --> 00:47:32,640 Speaker 1: had his heart attack, complete paradigm shift, complete thinking shift, 855 00:47:33,000 --> 00:47:37,600 Speaker 1: like internal reset. And even in the hospital he was 856 00:47:37,640 --> 00:47:40,400 Speaker 1: saying to me when he was recovering after open heart surgery, 857 00:47:40,440 --> 00:47:43,879 Speaker 1: which it was back then, he was saying, you need 858 00:47:43,920 --> 00:47:46,000 Speaker 1: to tell me what I have to do. Like he'd 859 00:47:46,080 --> 00:47:48,560 Speaker 1: never spoken to me like that in his life. Now, 860 00:47:48,640 --> 00:47:51,920 Speaker 1: all of a sudden, the dude, and then obviously he 861 00:47:51,960 --> 00:47:54,239 Speaker 1: comes out of hospital, he loses twenty five k's, he 862 00:47:54,280 --> 00:47:56,239 Speaker 1: starts walking every day, he goes to the gym, he 863 00:47:56,280 --> 00:47:59,200 Speaker 1: gets stronger, he changes his habits and behavior and outcomes. 864 00:47:59,480 --> 00:48:02,440 Speaker 1: He drinks les booze. It's fucking it's a new it's 865 00:48:02,520 --> 00:48:05,680 Speaker 1: him two point zero, right. I'm like, Buck, you could 866 00:48:05,680 --> 00:48:10,040 Speaker 1: have done this anytime. You didn't have to nearly die. Right. 867 00:48:10,760 --> 00:48:13,960 Speaker 1: That's the thing that frustrates me sometimes, mate, is that 868 00:48:13,960 --> 00:48:18,880 Speaker 1: that people actually have the fucking incredible potential to do 869 00:48:19,040 --> 00:48:23,480 Speaker 1: amazing shit now now, but they wait for the catastrophe, 870 00:48:23,560 --> 00:48:26,000 Speaker 1: they wait for the terror, you know. 871 00:48:26,360 --> 00:48:31,239 Speaker 2: Right, we take our health for granted. That's how I mean, 872 00:48:31,280 --> 00:48:34,520 Speaker 2: that's how you would distill that, right, Like where so 873 00:48:34,680 --> 00:48:37,200 Speaker 2: many of us wait for something to happen and then 874 00:48:37,239 --> 00:48:41,520 Speaker 2: we say, okay, let's get our shit together, right. I 875 00:48:41,640 --> 00:48:44,920 Speaker 2: Either that or you see someone very close to you 876 00:48:44,920 --> 00:48:49,480 Speaker 2: go through an experience where they have, you know, terrible 877 00:48:49,480 --> 00:48:52,440 Speaker 2: health or perhaps they even pass away from something, and 878 00:48:52,480 --> 00:48:54,840 Speaker 2: that is often a driver for people. It's similar to 879 00:48:54,920 --> 00:48:56,960 Speaker 2: me like seeing my dad have a heart attack when 880 00:48:57,000 --> 00:49:00,399 Speaker 2: I was when I was young. But what I would 881 00:49:00,440 --> 00:49:05,640 Speaker 2: say to the listener is that because not everyone's going 882 00:49:05,719 --> 00:49:07,560 Speaker 2: to have that direct experience, and we want people to 883 00:49:07,560 --> 00:49:10,200 Speaker 2: make changes earlier in life, I think you need to 884 00:49:10,239 --> 00:49:15,800 Speaker 2: think of it like essentially savings for retirement right now, 885 00:49:16,880 --> 00:49:20,759 Speaker 2: If you're going to retire at sixty sixty five, we 886 00:49:20,880 --> 00:49:23,080 Speaker 2: all know, like it would be far better if you 887 00:49:23,120 --> 00:49:27,400 Speaker 2: start saving at twenty five thirty. Yeah, correct, Look if 888 00:49:27,800 --> 00:49:30,719 Speaker 2: you haven't and it's forty five great, say from now, 889 00:49:30,880 --> 00:49:32,879 Speaker 2: and you'll still be in a much better position when 890 00:49:32,880 --> 00:49:35,799 Speaker 2: you retire. But this is the same thing when it 891 00:49:35,800 --> 00:49:37,640 Speaker 2: comes to your health and we talk about your risk 892 00:49:37,960 --> 00:49:42,080 Speaker 2: of chronic disease or you know, your risk of having 893 00:49:42,120 --> 00:49:46,040 Speaker 2: a fracture, and your bone density and your risk of 894 00:49:46,360 --> 00:49:50,640 Speaker 2: just having a fall and losing strength as you age, 895 00:49:52,440 --> 00:49:55,840 Speaker 2: we can we are all going to have a reduction 896 00:49:55,920 --> 00:49:58,240 Speaker 2: enbonement of density, We're all going to have a reduction 897 00:49:58,360 --> 00:50:00,360 Speaker 2: in the amount of skelidal muscle, we go going to 898 00:50:00,360 --> 00:50:04,960 Speaker 2: have a reduction in strength. But what we can do 899 00:50:05,120 --> 00:50:08,919 Speaker 2: is we can affect the rate of that reduction dramatically. 900 00:50:09,560 --> 00:50:13,040 Speaker 2: And the earlier we start in life, the higher we 901 00:50:13,080 --> 00:50:18,080 Speaker 2: are when we start to have that that decline. And 902 00:50:18,120 --> 00:50:20,320 Speaker 2: so that's the way that I think I like to 903 00:50:20,360 --> 00:50:23,040 Speaker 2: explain it to someone who's thinking, you know, why start 904 00:50:23,080 --> 00:50:25,319 Speaker 2: when I'm thirty or forty, I'll just wait until I'm 905 00:50:25,840 --> 00:50:27,080 Speaker 2: fifty and have more time. 906 00:50:28,160 --> 00:50:32,560 Speaker 1: Yes, yeah, And that's health span versus lifespan as well. 907 00:50:32,400 --> 00:50:38,239 Speaker 2: Right, exactly so, And for people that haven't heard of that, 908 00:50:38,320 --> 00:50:40,919 Speaker 2: I mean most people probably have now. But health span 909 00:50:41,320 --> 00:50:45,279 Speaker 2: is essentially speaking to the number of years you live 910 00:50:45,400 --> 00:50:47,279 Speaker 2: in good health. So you can do whatever it is 911 00:50:47,320 --> 00:50:50,440 Speaker 2: that you love to do right as opposed to lifespan 912 00:50:50,600 --> 00:50:52,640 Speaker 2: just being total years lived. But some of those years 913 00:50:52,840 --> 00:50:55,360 Speaker 2: you might be severely handicapped. And so we're trying to 914 00:50:55,400 --> 00:50:59,359 Speaker 2: compress that window of years where you are affected by 915 00:50:59,360 --> 00:51:01,279 Speaker 2: disease and able to do the things you love so 916 00:51:01,320 --> 00:51:03,200 Speaker 2: that it's a very small period at the end of 917 00:51:03,239 --> 00:51:05,879 Speaker 2: the life, and then increase all the years that you're 918 00:51:05,920 --> 00:51:10,440 Speaker 2: in you're in good health. But start early is to 919 00:51:10,480 --> 00:51:12,879 Speaker 2: take her message there as early as you can. It's 920 00:51:12,920 --> 00:51:14,960 Speaker 2: never too late, but earlier the better. 921 00:51:16,000 --> 00:51:18,279 Speaker 1: And so appreciate you. I could talk to you for 922 00:51:18,280 --> 00:51:20,080 Speaker 1: a long time, but I won't do that to you. 923 00:51:20,920 --> 00:51:23,439 Speaker 1: How can people connect with you? Find you, follow you? 924 00:51:23,440 --> 00:51:27,000 Speaker 1: Your podcast is the Proof, which is brilliant.
