It's not just 37 00:01:52,360 --> 00:01:55,919 Speaker 1: a workout, it's a view. It's like a modeling contract. Yeah, 38 00:01:55,960 --> 00:01:57,720 Speaker 1: so you gotta really want it. 39 00:01:57,800 --> 00:02:00,200 Speaker 2: Well I wanted it, but I couldn't afford it. 40 00:02:00,280 --> 00:02:02,960 Speaker 3: Yeah, okay, checks out. So what do you do instead? 41 00:02:03,640 --> 00:02:07,360 Speaker 2: Well, instead, I started to like secretly follow the trainers 42 00:02:07,360 --> 00:02:11,359 Speaker 2: around the gym. I would be eavesdropping, like while they're 43 00:02:11,400 --> 00:02:13,720 Speaker 2: giving one on one guidance to the other clock. 44 00:02:14,160 --> 00:02:17,400 Speaker 1: Genius just pop up in between their legs while they're 45 00:02:17,440 --> 00:02:18,320 Speaker 1: like lifting. 46 00:02:18,000 --> 00:02:19,880 Speaker 2: Something like this machine down. 47 00:02:19,960 --> 00:02:22,000 Speaker 1: Yeah, is that how you do it. 48 00:02:22,840 --> 00:02:24,760 Speaker 2: I would sit down at the machine that was next 49 00:02:24,800 --> 00:02:26,680 Speaker 2: to them, and I would just listen right and then 50 00:02:26,680 --> 00:02:29,200 Speaker 2: I would write down their scene and my notesap on 51 00:02:29,240 --> 00:02:30,840 Speaker 2: my phone so that I wouldn't forget it. 52 00:02:30,919 --> 00:02:33,639 Speaker 1: Okay, I think that's better. 53 00:02:33,720 --> 00:02:35,120 Speaker 2: I have like a TikTok up on how to do it, 54 00:02:35,160 --> 00:02:36,560 Speaker 2: and I have to replay it and pose it like 55 00:02:36,639 --> 00:02:37,760 Speaker 2: five times sitting there. 56 00:02:38,080 --> 00:02:41,000 Speaker 1: Yeah, it kind of sucks for the gym because you know, 57 00:02:41,360 --> 00:02:43,960 Speaker 1: it's like you're stealing. You're basically stealing from them, but. 58 00:02:44,160 --> 00:02:45,720 Speaker 3: You're already paying for a membership. 59 00:02:45,800 --> 00:02:48,760 Speaker 2: Everyone's sitting on machines just dropping it on their phones anyways. 60 00:02:48,800 --> 00:02:51,840 Speaker 1: I mean, I'm not against it. I just it's just 61 00:02:51,880 --> 00:02:53,480 Speaker 1: like I did work at a gym, so I know 62 00:02:53,600 --> 00:02:54,840 Speaker 1: my buddy's probably upset. 63 00:02:55,360 --> 00:02:57,640 Speaker 2: Yeah, well, I thought that it really helps me, Like 64 00:02:57,720 --> 00:03:00,280 Speaker 2: there was a point when I started actually seeing the 65 00:03:00,320 --> 00:03:02,160 Speaker 2: physical improvements and the muscle. 66 00:03:01,919 --> 00:03:06,040 Speaker 3: Groll, wanting to compliment the trainer, but. 67 00:03:07,919 --> 00:03:11,000 Speaker 2: Yeah, I had to kind of stay away. One day, 68 00:03:11,000 --> 00:03:13,480 Speaker 2: I was talking to a co worker and they noticed 69 00:03:13,480 --> 00:03:15,840 Speaker 2: that I was actually getting in shape, and they asked 70 00:03:15,960 --> 00:03:25,000 Speaker 2: me for advice on the workouts. So I basically went 71 00:03:25,000 --> 00:03:27,720 Speaker 2: into my act in my notes, and I literally emailed 72 00:03:27,760 --> 00:03:30,359 Speaker 2: them one of the daily routines that I copied from 73 00:03:30,400 --> 00:03:34,520 Speaker 2: a trainer. Yeah, Like they were super impressed by it. 74 00:03:34,600 --> 00:03:38,240 Speaker 2: They were like, wow, you're extremely thorough. You should start 75 00:03:38,240 --> 00:03:45,480 Speaker 2: your own fitness channel or something. I was like, no, 76 00:03:45,560 --> 00:03:50,400 Speaker 2: I don't have any actual fitness training or expertise. But 77 00:03:50,720 --> 00:03:53,920 Speaker 2: one day, just for the fun of it, I was like, whatever, 78 00:03:54,000 --> 00:04:02,840 Speaker 2: I'll post one of the workout routines on TikTok. I 79 00:04:02,920 --> 00:04:04,680 Speaker 2: thought that it was a good idea. So the video 80 00:04:04,840 --> 00:04:07,960 Speaker 2: ended up getting like way more attraction than I ever thought. 81 00:04:07,760 --> 00:04:08,280 Speaker 3: That it would. 82 00:04:08,800 --> 00:04:11,400 Speaker 2: Really thousands of lights across the board. 83 00:04:11,520 --> 00:04:15,080 Speaker 3: Wow, were you feeling guilty because you plagiarize this guy's 84 00:04:15,120 --> 00:04:17,320 Speaker 3: workout routine?
