Speaker 1: Mike McConnell music here today. We got to start getting
Speaker 1: Mike to come on from time to time. I was
Speaker 1: talking about that with Brian Combs a little while ago,
Speaker 1: just to get his thoughts on stuff that's happened in
Speaker 1: and around town, or around the country or around the world.
Speaker 1: I know that Mike just had some surgery on one
Speaker 1: of his feet and got to check in with him
Speaker 1: later today see how he's coming along. Two or three
Speaker 1: stories that have caught my attention over about the last
Speaker 1: twenty four hours. So do you want the good news
Speaker 1: or the bad news first? Sean McMahon, I'm gonna let
Speaker 1: you pick. We'll start with the good news. Start on
Speaker 1: a good note, the good news, okay, so well, let's go.
Speaker 1: Let's go good bad And then somewhere in between, how's
Speaker 1: that sound good news? The nuts All Foundation and what
Speaker 1: a job they do. Of course, all this started by
Speaker 1: the late, great, our beloved friend I knew him so well,
Speaker 1: my dad's partner for forty plus years, Joe Nuxall, and
Speaker 1: that organization, that foundation has continued doing what he started
Speaker 1: and taken it to an entirely new level. The Nucshall
Speaker 1: Foundation has reached a milestone in its Hope Center fundraising campaign,
Speaker 1: surpassing its million dollar goal by raising one point twenty
Speaker 1: five million for the construction of the Hope Center. Now,
Speaker 1: what is the Hope Center. The Hope Center is a
Speaker 1: year round indoor recreational facility designed for athletes with physical
Speaker 1: and developmental disabilities. The facility will be built at the
Speaker 1: site of the Joe Nuxall Miracle League Fields in Fairfield
Speaker 1: over on grow Lane. I have said before that every
Speaker 1: parent should take their children during the summertime to the
Speaker 1: Joe Knuxall Miracle Lead Fields. All of us. I don't
Speaker 1: care who you are. We're all guilty of just taking
Speaker 1: the small things. But the most important things for granted,
Speaker 1: Number one are health. The health of our children and
Speaker 1: whether or not they are interested in sports. Maybe they
Speaker 1: just get out there because you want them to play soccer,
Speaker 1: to get a little exercise. They're able to walk, they're
Speaker 1: able to run, they're able to do all of those things.
Speaker 1: Think and so often I'm guilty. So I'm not pointing
Speaker 1: any fingers. Believe me, it's hard looking in the mirror
Speaker 1: sometimes of just taking these things for granted. The Hope
Speaker 1: Center will be a year round indoor recreational facility designed
Speaker 1: for those athletes thirty one thousand square feet. They plan
Speaker 1: to break ground this year. The site will include an
Speaker 1: arena for new sports and events that will provide a
Speaker 1: permanent location for the Butler County Special Olympics. They'll have
Speaker 1: a multi perse purpose recreation room with accessible fitness equipment
Speaker 1: such as a wheelchair, accessible zip line, a ball pit,
Speaker 1: a one hundred and fifty person community room, a concession
Speaker 1: stand with workforce development opportunity for the special needs community,
Speaker 1: and it will also serve as the permanent headquarters for
Speaker 1: the Nusall Foundation. They got a one million dollar gift
Speaker 1: from the Hatton Foundation. A matching gift came along with
Speaker 1: it at the end of December, so that's a major
Speaker 1: boost to that campaign. And look, you can go to
Speaker 1: the Knucksall Foundation their website. Tyler Bradshaw does such a
Speaker 1: great job handling being the frontman for the organization. Kim
Speaker 1: Nuxall Bonnie Nucsall is Joe Knuxall's son, and he has
Speaker 1: just taken this thing to a whole new level. And
Speaker 1: the things that they are doing out there for people
Speaker 1: who are less fortunate than we are is just simply amazing,
Speaker 1: and I urge you, I plead with you, take a
Speaker 1: couple of hours out of a summer day and go
Speaker 1: up there and watch those children suffering from either a
Speaker 1: mental disability or a physical disability to be able to
Speaker 1: go and play in a baseball game. It will bring
Speaker 1: tears to your eyes, I promise you, And it will
Speaker 1: bring perhaps center us a little bit more into understanding
Speaker 1: the most important and appreciating the most important things that
Speaker 1: we are given and that our children are given. Okay,
Speaker 1: now another story that caught my eye. I asked Sean McMahon,
Speaker 1: our producer, a minute ago, does he know what doom
Speaker 1: scrolling is. I had never heard this term until last
Speaker 1: night when I started to read this article in Epic Health.
Speaker 1: Doom scrolling late at night increases suicide risk, but texting
Speaker 1: someone at three o'clock in the morning apparently does not
Speaker 1: have the same effect. This is a new study that
Speaker 1: just came out. So maybe you have a teenager or
Speaker 1: a child who has some kind of anxiety, depression, maybe
Speaker 1: thoughts of suicide. One of the worst things they can
Speaker 1: do is doom scroll at night. A new study of
Speaker 1: both kids and adults at high risk for suicide found
Speaker 1: that what people do on their phone after dark shapes
Speaker 1: how they feel the next day. Quote from Brook Ammerman,
Speaker 1: a psychology professor at the University of Wisconsin Madison, and
Speaker 1: she is the co author of this study, nighttime phone
Speaker 1: behavior isn't uniformly harmful. How people are using their phone
Speaker 1: maybe the thing that really matters. She said, we expected
Speaker 1: that nighttime use was going to be problematic, but the
Speaker 1: middle of the night active engagement, finding that it was
Speaker 1: associated with lower next day risk was the most interesting.
Speaker 1: So what they did is they over four weeks, they
Speaker 1: tracked seventy nine adults in South Bend, Indiana, fifty four women,
Speaker 1: twenty five men, the average age thirty five, all of
Speaker 1: whom had recently experienced suicidal thoughts or suicidal behaviors. So
Speaker 1: what researchers would do is they would take screenshots of
Speaker 1: the phone activity every few seconds and then categorized their
Speaker 1: screen use as either passive or active. Now, some screen
Speaker 1: activities demand little thought or movement your browsing news feeds,
Speaker 1: watching short videos, while others require more engagement, like messaging, typing,
Speaker 1: searching online. Participants completed daily surveys about their mood and
Speaker 1: any thoughts of suicide. And it came as no surprise
Speaker 1: on this part that those who did not use their
Speaker 1: phone seven to nine hours overnight typically uninterrupted sleep right,
Speaker 1: reported the fewest suicidal thoughts or plans. This was closely
Speaker 1: followed by people with four to seven hours of phone
Speaker 1: free time showing a higher risk, suggesting that shortened or
Speaker 1: disrupted sleep increase is your vulnerable ability. And you know,
Speaker 1: we were talking yesterday about how another study had just
Speaker 1: come out that outside of smoking, the thing that can
Speaker 1: determine your life expectancy even more. This study showed than
Speaker 1: what we eat, how frequently we exercise, that the amount
Speaker 1: of sleep we get was the second biggest area of
Speaker 1: shortening our lives. If we don't get enough sleep after smoking,
Speaker 1: and then the phones in this study are adding another
Speaker 1: layer of disruption. It's being called in this study the
Speaker 1: enemy of sleep. It's an easy distraction. You know about
Speaker 1: that blue light which suppresses your melatonin. That's the hormone
Speaker 1: that gets you into quote unquote nighttime mode, right, and
Speaker 1: then your whole circadian rhythm is off. So, if you
Speaker 1: are an adult and has had a history of some
Speaker 1: mental issues, maybe you have a teenager with a history
Speaker 1: of some mental issues, depression, anxiety, all those kinds of things.
Speaker 1: Take away the phone at night, take it away entirely,
Speaker 1: put it away if you're an adult. Third story that
Speaker 1: caught my eye, and this is you know, maybe for
Speaker 1: those that are thinking about advertising, because that is such
Speaker 1: a fascinating world to me. I mean, people like Procter
Speaker 1: and Gamble. They have study after study after study of
Speaker 1: psychologically how we think when we walk into stores, what
Speaker 1: we're looking at, what's the level of it on the shelf,
Speaker 1: all these kinds of things. Advertising comes in many, many
Speaker 1: different forms. I was surprised to learn now most of
Speaker 1: the podcast out there right, for example, has audio and video,
Speaker 1: but new research shutties comparing audio and video advertising are
Speaker 1: showing greater effectiveness and return on investment for audio only.
Speaker 1: So a joint effort from an audio specialist agency, Oxford
Speaker 1: Rose Okay, they went out and they examined more than
Speaker 1: one thousand podcast campaigns across over one hundred brands and
Speaker 1: found that spending a million dollars on a YouTube podcast
Speaker 1: resulted in a loss of two hundred and fifty thousand
Speaker 1: dollars versus an audio podcast campaign. Put another way, a
Speaker 1: YouTube podcast views are eighteen to twenty five percent less
Speaker 1: effective at driving purchases than audio podcast Now some of
Speaker 1: the reasons why audio listeners often seek out content intentionally
Speaker 1: and they foster stronger host connections, while YouTube viewers tend
Speaker 1: to be passive and algorithm driven. Two, audio podcast listeners
Speaker 1: are often focused on the host voice and recommendations, which
Speaker 1: apparently creates a more intimate and persuasive environment. And then
Speaker 1: number three, YouTube audiences don't pay as much attention due
Speaker 1: to either multitasking or a distracting visual element, making ads
Speaker 1: feel less personal. I don't know about you, but you
Speaker 1: know everybody you talk to. And I've done a podcast,
Speaker 1: I did one with my son. I'd like to do
Speaker 1: another one with my dad and my son. But I've
Speaker 1: always felt like, you know, paying attention to everybody else,
Speaker 1: that you had to have the video with it, that
Speaker 1: that's where we are. And I remember just a few
Speaker 1: years ago, a number of years ago now, having this
Speaker 1: conversation with my old partner on the Reds Games. He
Speaker 1: still does a game, Chris Welsh, and you know, he
Speaker 1: was telling me that the future of radio is dead,
Speaker 1: all this kind of thing, but in fact we are
Speaker 1: finding out and this isn't some self serving kind of
Speaker 1: a thing that I'm bringing up here. It's just that
Speaker 1: I think a lot of people out there told us, us,
Speaker 1: the population in general, that the future of radio compared
Speaker 1: to video and being able to look at things on
Speaker 1: our phones and all this kind of stuff, that people
Speaker 1: wanted the video. They don't want the audio anymore. But apparently,
Speaker 1: if you are an advertiser and you're making a decision
Speaker 1: between video and audio, that for the amount of money
Speaker 1: that you pay for that advertising, and it's considerably less
Speaker 1: on radio or a podcast than it is saying buying
Speaker 1: a TV commercial or even buying a video podcast, that
Speaker 1: your return on that based on the audience is an
Speaker 1: enormously higher return from an audio standpoint than it is
Speaker 1: from a podcast which has audio and video. I find
Speaker 1: this stuff so interesting at any rate. Coming up at
Speaker 1: eight thirty eight, we have Julie Isfording. Now, look, we
Speaker 1: know that a lot of people come to New year
Speaker 1: and I think it was seventy nine percent we were
Speaker 1: talking about it just before New Year's Day. Seventy nine
Speaker 1: percent of the people who make New Year's resolutions focus
Speaker 1: on their physical health. They want to get healthier, want
Speaker 1: to get in better shape, right. I mean, you've been there,
Speaker 1: I've been there, We've all been there. Fewer than ten
Speaker 1: percent actually stick with it of the seventy nine percent
Speaker 1: that make that commitment. That's what studies show after about
Speaker 1: three months. Okay, but let's say that you're gonna do it,
Speaker 1: and I believe you're gonna do it. If you say
Speaker 1: you're gonna do it, I believe you. So let's go
Speaker 1: and make it happen. But if you're thinking about going
Speaker 1: to the gym you've never been before. Maybe you're going
Speaker 1: to a yoga class, right, become more flexible, body feel better.
Speaker 1: Maybe you're going to I don't know, pilates class, exercise class,
Speaker 1: any kind. There are dues and don'ts about things once
Speaker 1: you get in that room, and I think that's where
Speaker 1: a lot of people get scared. If they are scared
Speaker 1: maybe the wrong word a little intimidated. It's very intimidating.
Speaker 1: I've walked in there and there are people that are
Speaker 1: rolling out their mats and they know exactly what waits
Speaker 1: to grab, and they know what bands to grab and
Speaker 1: all these kinds of thing before the class starts. But
Speaker 1: Julie is going to help you before you go in
Speaker 1: there about a few things you just might want to
Speaker 1: think about. So we're looking forward to hearing from our
Speaker 1: friend Julie Isfording and it is an enormously popular segment
Speaker 1: with her that we have each and every Tuesday here
Speaker 1: on the Morning Show. So we're back with that after
Speaker 1: the news. It is a twenty four on seven hundred WLW.
Speaker 1: All right, Chuck Ingram, what's happening out there? Brother, trying
Speaker 1: to get things to clear out a bit. Just is
Speaker 1: starting to get better on northbound seventy five. This from
Speaker 1: the uc Health Tramphic Center. Uc Health Weight Loss Center
Speaker 1: offers surgical and medical OBC tocaren expertise called five one
Speaker 1: three nine three nine two two sixty three. That's nine
Speaker 1: nine twenty two sixty three. Had a wreck just before
Speaker 1: the bridge. That's clear.
Speaker 2: Then a second wreck is a Kyle's. They just cleared
Speaker 2: that one off on the right hand side. Traffic's still
Speaker 2: running close to an extra twenty minutes from Donaldson into
Speaker 2: downtown northbound four to seventy one continues heavy out of
Speaker 2: Southgate southbound seventy one working with a wreck just below
Speaker 2: Field Turtle, but traffic's improved there still slows between two
Speaker 2: seventy five and Red Bank and southbound seventy five. Break
Speaker 2: lights continue in and out of Lachland. Northbound seventy five
Speaker 2: is running heavy through the Wachland Split. There's a wreck
Speaker 2: on the twenty two at Union Chapel in Claremont County
Speaker 2: and Westwood Northern near Montana. Chuck Ingram News Radio seven
Speaker 2: hundred WLW.
Speaker 1: All right our WCPO nine first onety fore casters enter
Speaker 1: our buddy, Jennifer catching mark. It's a cloudy day, but
Speaker 1: it's going to be a warm day. We're getting up
Speaker 1: to fifty seven degrees. It will be a breezy day
Speaker 1: when's expected to get anywhere from ten to twenty miles
Speaker 1: per hour. Tonight we're dry, cloudy, forty. Tomorrow's sunshine mixed
Speaker 1: with a few clouds, but a lot of sunshine. Tomorrow
Speaker 1: is going to be really nice, fifty two degrees down
Speaker 1: to thirty nine tomorrow night. Now Thursday, it will be
Speaker 1: dry until later in the afternoon, a spotty shower or
Speaker 1: maybe we're getting up to fifty eight tomorrow, then on
Speaker 1: Friday dry during the day. Fingers crossed on that when
Speaker 1: she says, and getting all the way up to sixty
Speaker 1: degrees on Friday, but Friday night, Jennifer says, we're gonna
Speaker 1: get what's called a soaking shower. So if you're going
Speaker 1: out Friday night, please keep that in mind. I got
Speaker 1: the news right around the corner. Then, Julie is fording
Speaker 1: right here on the Morning Show seven hundred wl W.
Speaker 1: All right, eight thirty eight, welcome to the Morning Show
Speaker 1: here on seven hundred WLW. We're all on that magic
Speaker 1: bus to get healthier, and that's why we welcome in
Speaker 1: the picture of Health herself, Julie isfording, Happy New Year.
Speaker 1: Julie is for ding new Year.
Speaker 3: To you too. The magic bus.
Speaker 1: Huh, I like it, Yeah, magic buzs of health.
Speaker 3: Yeah, let's get on that bus.
Speaker 1: Tom, Well, you're already on it. The rest of us
Speaker 1: are sort of, you know, running behind the bus or
Speaker 1: walking or crawling or something behind the bus. It ain't running.
Speaker 3: That's a beautiful compliment, by the way. Well, I mean,
Speaker 3: I'll take it, but it's not truly. I think a
Speaker 3: lot of people are trying to get on the bus.
Speaker 1: Well, you know, you and I talked about this before
Speaker 1: the New Year, and that is a study show that
Speaker 1: of all the quote unquote New Year's resolutions that people make,
Speaker 1: seventy nine percent of them have to do with getting
Speaker 1: in better physical shape. You talked a lot about the
Speaker 1: last time we got together before the New year, about
Speaker 1: you know, the mental health side of it and all
Speaker 1: those kinds of things along with the physical health side
Speaker 1: of it. Today, I want to zero in and I
Speaker 1: love the idea the topic you came up with today,
Speaker 1: because this is one of those things things where let's
Speaker 1: say your New Year's resolution is to get in better
Speaker 1: physical and mental shape. But on the physical side, Okay,
Speaker 1: I'm going to start going to the gym. I'm going
Speaker 1: to start going to an exercise class. Part of the
Speaker 1: gym or the exercise class involves a locker room. And
Speaker 1: today you are going to talk about certain etiquette that
Speaker 1: people might want to keep in mind before they go there,
Speaker 1: because you know, before we get to your suggestions, I
Speaker 1: got to tell you I think one of the things,
Speaker 1: and I think I'm speaking more for men here than women,
Speaker 1: because I can't speak for women. I've never been a woman.
Speaker 1: But for men, is that when you know, say your
Speaker 1: wife or your sister, or your daughter or whomever talks
Speaker 1: you into coming to one of these classes, and you've
Speaker 1: never been to one. Okay, walk in most times the
Speaker 1: lighting is dim. You know, you walk in and there's
Speaker 1: a mat over in that corner, a category for those there.
Speaker 1: There's an area of way eats. It vary from two
Speaker 1: pounds to twenty pounds. They're these bands in the room
Speaker 1: and all this other story. It can be, Julie, very intimidating.
Speaker 3: It really can be. And we're talking basically today about
Speaker 3: how the class is. Like I teach a lot of
Speaker 3: yoga and pilates. I teach it to art museum, and
Speaker 3: I teach it at MBRA, and I consider the gym,
Speaker 3: going to the gym or going to a class, it's
Speaker 3: like a big playground and here we go in the
Speaker 3: playground is much more crowded now. And frankly, as a teacher,
Speaker 3: and I think if you talk to any teacher in
Speaker 3: the city, it's a great time. I mean, here comes
Speaker 3: all these new students, all these people with one thing
Speaker 3: in mind. They just want to be better. And you
Speaker 3: have all these levels that come in and the first
Speaker 3: thing to realize is, just like life, everyone's at a
Speaker 3: different level. But some things to remember or like when
Speaker 3: you come into class, just your basic things will keep
Speaker 3: you like eighty percent ahead of everyone in that room.
Speaker 3: And that is your basic things. Just like when you
Speaker 3: were a kid on the playground, you know, you get
Speaker 3: there on time when you bring you know, like if
Speaker 3: you're in a yoga class, you roll out your yoga matt.
Speaker 3: You don't slam it down and say, well, here I am.
Speaker 3: And you know you also listen to the instructor. That's
Speaker 3: everyone's just listening, trying to understand the movement, not create.
Speaker 3: This is not the time to create your own little game.
Speaker 3: And if you're in the gym, what about you don't
Speaker 3: drag in all your stuff, you know, your gym bag.
Speaker 3: Same with classes, don't bring your stuff in, keep it
Speaker 3: in the locker room. That's what they're for. And always
Speaker 3: go with you know, a sense of childlike adventure. This
Speaker 3: is not like there are there is no perfect way
Speaker 3: to do yoga, there's no perfect way to do pilates,
Speaker 3: there's no perfect way to lift weights or to ride
Speaker 3: a peloton or but there's a hundred good ways. So
Speaker 3: it's like go for the good and and you know,
Speaker 3: and then just think about when you were a kid
Speaker 3: on the playground. You want to wear appropriate attire and
Speaker 3: you want to remember the locker room. It's like the kids'
Speaker 3: bathroom at school. Let's not be spending a lot of
Speaker 3: time in there. This is not the time for an
Speaker 3: hour shower or the time to have a full blown
Speaker 3: conversation with someone. Get in, get out, get done, and
Speaker 3: just you know, you can see my vibe here. It
Speaker 3: really should be a happy hour, whether you know however
Speaker 3: much time you spend at a class in a gym,
Speaker 3: and to realize that everyone is there for the same reason,
Speaker 3: just to get better. But I mean, do you have
Speaker 3: some stories.
Speaker 1: I always just go back to the to the way
Speaker 1: that I sort of preface this. Now, I will say
Speaker 1: I have been to your class. My wife and I,
Speaker 1: Polly and I have been to your class a number
Speaker 1: of times. And you are someone and I'm not saying
Speaker 1: this just because you're on the radio right now. You
Speaker 1: are someone that when someone walks in the class and
Speaker 1: you know immediately whether you've seen this person before. You
Speaker 1: may not know whether or not they've ever been to
Speaker 1: a class before, but I'm sure that you're perceptive enough
Speaker 1: that when somebody walks in and it's clearly their first
Speaker 1: or second time, and maybe they're a little unsure of
Speaker 1: some of the stuff. You're right there to answer any
Speaker 1: questions that may they may have. And that's all assuming,
Speaker 1: of course they get there a few minutes early and
Speaker 1: not walking in late to interrupt the class. But you're
Speaker 1: there to do that, you know. I think it's so
Speaker 1: important and incumbent upon the host of the class, Okay,
Speaker 1: the instructor of the class to be there and available
Speaker 1: for guys like me or people like me, women like
Speaker 1: me who are looking in there and you're just not
Speaker 1: sure what is all this stuff? What's it used for?
Speaker 1: Why are people getting this block over there? You know,
Speaker 1: you know what I'm saying. I mean, that stuff is
Speaker 1: what teachs you from going right.
Speaker 3: So I try to get there half an hour before class,
Speaker 3: hoping that the newbies will come early and then I'll
Speaker 3: have a chance to like talk to them and get
Speaker 3: them excited. And you're right, there is a look on
Speaker 3: certain people's faces when they walk in the room. I
Speaker 3: know this is our first class. Yeah, they have to
Speaker 3: look at my job and I'm so happy to see people.
Speaker 3: I mean, it's to me teaching, it's like this social time.
Speaker 1: You're like Julie, the host of the Love Boat was
Speaker 1: that her name, Julie. I think it was you.
Speaker 3: But I think it's so exciting to see one more
Speaker 3: new student because you remember, it's not the teacher. It's
Speaker 3: not the individual students that make a class great. It's
Speaker 3: the total energy in the room. So if people are
Speaker 3: having fun, they'll forget their exercising. And that's the point
Speaker 3: of all this, that exercise becomes fun. You fall in
Speaker 3: love with either a class routine. You know, you go
Speaker 3: with your buddies to a certain class and enjoy the camaraderie,
Speaker 3: you like the teacher. There's so much that goes into
Speaker 3: the enjoyment of exercise. Don't like don't stop short, like
Speaker 3: don't go to the gym, and like being you know,
Speaker 3: try to do it alone. I think classes are great.
Speaker 3: I think being in just watching other people use machines,
Speaker 3: if you use machines, asking for help from the staff
Speaker 3: and but you know, and then just doing your common
Speaker 3: kindness things. Don't leave a pool of sweat on the machine.
Speaker 3: Don't camp out on the machines. How's that one someone
Speaker 3: will be doing a set or using the dumbbolls and
Speaker 3: they just stand there and then they get on their
Speaker 3: phone or sit there. It's kind of like you really
Speaker 3: need to move along.
Speaker 1: Yeah, it's funny you say that, because I do see
Speaker 1: a lot of that. If you go in somewhere that
Speaker 1: maybe only has a couple of benches for a bench press,
Speaker 1: for example, and somebody's you know, doing their three sets
Speaker 1: or whatever they're doing, and in between the sets are
Speaker 1: sitting there scrolling on their phone. You know, you're waiting around.
Speaker 1: You got other people waiting around. I mean, you hit
Speaker 1: the nail on the head. All right. Look, look, look
Speaker 1: I want to ask you specifically. Okay, we're talking about
Speaker 1: etiquette and things like this. Let's say someone is coming
Speaker 1: to your class. Okay, the class that I've been to,
Speaker 1: all right, which is not a pilates class. There's a
Speaker 1: lot of stretching, there's some pilate movements things like that.
Speaker 1: But you talked about your attire. If you're some dude
Speaker 1: who's walking in there for the first time, why are
Speaker 1: you laughing? I've been that dude.
Speaker 3: Well, I'm just thinking about what you're gonna say.
Speaker 1: Okay, what am I wearing? What am I wearing? I mean,
Speaker 1: because sometimes you know, you got to do some movements
Speaker 1: and stuff, and you know you don't want your you know,
Speaker 1: butt crack hanging out. You don't want to be able
Speaker 1: to sit there and you know, whatever it might be.
Speaker 1: I mean, you don't want to be in sweatpants and
Speaker 1: all of a sudden you've got the temperature turned up
Speaker 1: to one hundred and four. You know, you want to
Speaker 1: lose some weight, but maybe not that way. Help me?
Speaker 1: What am I wearing? What am I wearing? Oh?
Speaker 3: That is a great topic too, Like well, you know what,
Speaker 3: there's a lot if you go on Amazon or chat GBT,
Speaker 3: you can say what should I wear to a yoga
Speaker 3: class and you can get a whole like list of things.
Speaker 3: But usually men wear fitness long fitness shorts with tights underneath,
Speaker 3: just like Lebron James would wear, you know, just things
Speaker 3: your typical athletic wear t shirt. Just that kind of
Speaker 3: up wear is really appropriate. It's it's pretty easy now
Speaker 3: that we have so much to look at online or
Speaker 3: ask a buddy or you know, there's it's pretty standard
Speaker 3: and pretty easy once you get the lay of the land.
Speaker 3: And there suggests from people online too, So that's that's
Speaker 3: pretty much an easy one. It's it's the other things
Speaker 3: that are really hard, and that is just getting yourself
Speaker 3: started signed up and beginning again, and we talked about that, Tom.
Speaker 3: I think a lot of New Year's resolution is just
Speaker 3: try again, fail try again. You know, I always say
Speaker 3: to students, and I don't know if you've heard this before,
Speaker 3: but each class, or each opportunity at the gym, each
Speaker 3: hour you spend there, you always want to walk away
Speaker 3: with one amazing moment, one new learning, one beautiful failure,
Speaker 3: a great success in four miracles, because it might be
Speaker 3: a miracle that you got yourself there. So don't just count.
Speaker 1: A little right if it, discuss.
Speaker 3: The little stuff. You'll be surprised at what you discover
Speaker 3: about yourself. You know. It's like, wow, I can keep up,
Speaker 3: or I am getting better. And that's the great thing
Speaker 3: about exercise classes in the gym. It's a great equalizer.
Speaker 3: There's nobody really much better than anyone else, and everyone
Speaker 3: is going with the same intention, just like the kids playground,
Speaker 3: to have fun, to get something good out of it,
Speaker 3: to leave happy, to feel energized, and to feel a
Speaker 3: sense of accomplishment because it spills into the rest of
Speaker 3: your life. It's a spillage factor, I call it. I
Speaker 3: think I made that one up too, and that is
Speaker 3: when you feel good or accomplish something, even if it's
Speaker 3: really small, and you feel better physically, it's spills into everything.
Speaker 3: It spills into your work life, your adult life, you're parenting.
Speaker 3: It just makes everything a little bit better. And that's
Speaker 3: what we're looking for. Nothing's going to be perfect, but
Speaker 3: it's going to be okay. And sometimes just knowing that
Speaker 3: you know what, you can hang in there or you
Speaker 3: know there's no like great people to gym or great
Speaker 3: people in yoga. There's good people, but nobody is really
Speaker 3: killing it. We all really don't know what we're doing,
Speaker 3: but man, we're trying so hard.
Speaker 1: Well, Julie, there are some I've walked into a couple
Speaker 1: of classes where it's like ninety women. They're all like
Speaker 1: twenty something, and they're all like gumby. There are a
Speaker 1: little intimidating yeah, and then a fat guy walks in
Speaker 1: like me, Well.
Speaker 3: Just think of all of us who listen to you
Speaker 3: on the radio, how good you are? Right, we're all
Speaker 3: good at something. It's just figuring out what you're good at.
Speaker 3: But with exercise, it's just once again, always tell people
Speaker 3: just have fun and you have questions. I'm here, come early,
Speaker 3: I'll stay late. And you can learn so much from
Speaker 3: just watching other people, listening to the instructor, or just
Speaker 3: being there. If you learn one percent, you have one
Speaker 3: you walk out. You've maybe you met somebody new, maybe
Speaker 3: you learned a new move, but most importantly, you've got
Speaker 3: there and you tried again, and you tried again, and
Speaker 3: that's where the resilience comes. That's where your courage and
Speaker 3: your strength comes from. And remember none of this was easy.
Speaker 3: If it was easy, you wouldn't get you wouldn't have
Speaker 3: so much fun with it.
Speaker 1: That's right, that's right.
Speaker 3: We all want to grow, but honestly, it's it is
Speaker 3: a shared space. So just remember that. You know, you
Speaker 3: want to make it fun for everyone and your yourself,
Speaker 3: so kindness counts. And you know, just pretend that you're
Speaker 3: you're just you're playing with everyone else and you want
Speaker 3: to you want to do the right thing. That's pull
Speaker 3: basic etiquette roles. And you're already there.
Speaker 1: Yeah, And I think the first one you said right
Speaker 1: from the very beginning is be on time, because that's
Speaker 1: how you all of a sudden, either you get behind,
Speaker 1: you're asking somebody for help, and you're already starting the
Speaker 1: class and all that just get there a little bit early,
Speaker 1: like you said, And I think that in most cases
Speaker 1: you'll find and this is just based on my very
Speaker 1: limited but some experience, that if you do that from
Speaker 1: the very beginning, you have a chance to make it
Speaker 1: much more enjoyable and you'll come back again and you
Speaker 1: won't feel weird or any of that kind of thing.
Speaker 1: You're just making yourself. Just get out there and do it.
