But one thing that we didn't 76 00:03:43,680 --> 00:03:46,560 Speaker 2: really talk about was what you started, which is the 77 00:03:46,720 --> 00:03:50,760 Speaker 2: online subscription, which is really really dope for a couple 78 00:03:50,800 --> 00:03:53,280 Speaker 2: of different reasons, and obviously now because of COVID has 79 00:03:53,280 --> 00:03:56,080 Speaker 2: really took off. So let's talk about that. Let's let's 80 00:03:56,080 --> 00:03:59,320 Speaker 2: talk about that, Like what what gave you the insight 81 00:03:59,680 --> 00:04:02,640 Speaker 2: before COVID to think, all right, I'm gonna be bigger 82 00:04:02,640 --> 00:04:05,280 Speaker 2: than just a personal trainer, bigger than just a gym owner. 83 00:04:05,800 --> 00:04:08,480 Speaker 2: I want to expand this and do something online. 84 00:04:09,160 --> 00:04:11,160 Speaker 3: So with Instagram, like I said, I was late to 85 00:04:11,160 --> 00:04:15,000 Speaker 3: the party got on Instagram twenty fifteen, everybody was already 86 00:04:15,040 --> 00:04:17,240 Speaker 3: on there. But when I started getting on there, showcasing 87 00:04:17,279 --> 00:04:19,839 Speaker 3: my talent, posting my before and after pictures, things I 88 00:04:19,880 --> 00:04:21,120 Speaker 3: was actually doing in the gym. 89 00:04:21,360 --> 00:04:23,440 Speaker 6: It was an overwhelming response for people saying, hey. 90 00:04:23,360 --> 00:04:25,200 Speaker 3: Man, can you train me? Can you do Skype? Can 91 00:04:25,200 --> 00:04:27,000 Speaker 3: you do FaceTime? Can we do any kind of training? 92 00:04:27,040 --> 00:04:30,240 Speaker 3: I'm like, no, you gotta live in Atlanta. And that 93 00:04:30,360 --> 00:04:34,200 Speaker 3: just led to me seeking some type of somebody that 94 00:04:34,320 --> 00:04:36,880 Speaker 3: was already doing an online program I can team up with, 95 00:04:37,040 --> 00:04:39,240 Speaker 3: you know what I mean. So that's how that originated. 96 00:04:39,680 --> 00:04:42,840 Speaker 3: I found a guy who was doing programs, we linked 97 00:04:43,400 --> 00:04:45,960 Speaker 3: and we just started, you know, we created an actual X. 98 00:04:46,080 --> 00:04:49,520 Speaker 3: It was L twenty eight at first, and that was 99 00:04:49,640 --> 00:04:52,320 Speaker 3: X twenty eight, But that's where it came from. Man, 100 00:04:52,600 --> 00:04:55,400 Speaker 3: I just couldn't reach everybody. So many people on Instagram 101 00:04:55,400 --> 00:04:58,000 Speaker 3: that wanted to get trained and wanted to get the formula, 102 00:04:58,040 --> 00:05:00,240 Speaker 3: the system, and I couldn't reach them.

Right, But what's happening is after every workout, 164 00:07:48,680 --> 00:07:50,920 Speaker 3: it's forty seconds on, twenty seconds off, and you get 165 00:07:50,920 --> 00:07:52,800 Speaker 3: a break. So what we were doing working out for 166 00:07:52,800 --> 00:07:54,840 Speaker 3: forty seconds, taking twenty seconds off, giving them a. 167 00:07:54,840 --> 00:07:56,680 Speaker 6: Break, and we were doing the whole formula. 168 00:07:56,880 --> 00:07:59,880 Speaker 3: Well it's only about twenty two exercises, so we started 169 00:07:59,880 --> 00:08:02,440 Speaker 3: doing on is filming the twenty two exercises. Now it 170 00:08:02,480 --> 00:08:05,600 Speaker 3: only takes us twenty two minutes the twenty two exercises. 171 00:08:05,680 --> 00:08:07,520 Speaker 3: You get what I'm saying, and then we plug and 172 00:08:07,560 --> 00:08:08,880 Speaker 3: play like that. 173 00:08:09,080 --> 00:08:10,760 Speaker 4: Yeah, so you're shooting all the content and just chop 174 00:08:10,800 --> 00:08:10,960 Speaker 4: it up. 175 00:08:11,040 --> 00:08:12,440 Speaker 3: Yeah, we shoot all the content, and we got a 176 00:08:12,480 --> 00:08:14,800 Speaker 3: dope editor who comes in and you know, so we're 177 00:08:14,800 --> 00:08:16,760 Speaker 3: still doing the workouts, but we're not doing the whole 178 00:08:16,840 --> 00:08:19,240 Speaker 3: day one, day two, day three. A lot of people 179 00:08:19,280 --> 00:08:21,880 Speaker 3: are doing that. Yeah, it took us to you know, 180 00:08:21,880 --> 00:08:23,920 Speaker 3: about a six month period like damn, we got it 181 00:08:23,920 --> 00:08:29,440 Speaker 3: a easy way to do this after the work each 182 00:08:29,600 --> 00:08:32,120 Speaker 3: day all you know. So we just figured it out, 183 00:08:32,160 --> 00:08:34,319 Speaker 3: like yo, let's just shoot. How many workouts was it? 184 00:08:34,400 --> 00:08:37,920 Speaker 3: Twenty two? Shoot the twenty two workouts, get somebody plug 185 00:08:37,960 --> 00:08:40,920 Speaker 3: and play and boom. So now we can shoot. We 186 00:08:40,920 --> 00:08:42,360 Speaker 3: can shoot three months at a time. 187 00:08:42,480 --> 00:08:44,160 Speaker 2: That's why I was gonna ask you, like how many days? 188 00:08:44,200 --> 00:08:46,559 Speaker 2: How many months? So you shoot like a quarter, like 189 00:08:46,600 --> 00:08:47,959 Speaker 2: you shoot three months in three days? 190 00:08:48,040 --> 00:08:49,520 Speaker 3: Yeah, so what I Yeah, that's how we do. So 191 00:08:49,559 --> 00:08:52,160 Speaker 3: we'll go to Miami, right, we'll shoot one month. It 192 00:08:52,280 --> 00:08:53,800 Speaker 3: takes us a couple of hours, but we'll go to 193 00:08:54,000 --> 00:08:56,440 Speaker 3: Miami and we'll shoot against the beach, then we go 194 00:08:56,440 --> 00:08:58,400 Speaker 3: on the rooftop, and then we go somewhere else, you 195 00:08:58,440 --> 00:09:00,400 Speaker 3: know what I mean.

It's just the time factor for 217 00:09:48,240 --> 00:09:50,839 Speaker 7: me because I juggled so many things. So it's when 218 00:09:50,880 --> 00:09:52,560 Speaker 7: he says, okay, we got to have this day set 219 00:09:52,559 --> 00:09:54,319 Speaker 7: aside because we got to shoot x twenty eight, it's like, 220 00:09:54,600 --> 00:09:56,880 Speaker 7: look at my calendar.

So it's like, now, if you can just 231 00:10:25,000 --> 00:10:27,640 Speaker 2: work out at home for thirty minutes, you don't feel 232 00:10:27,679 --> 00:10:30,040 Speaker 2: like having to go out in the cold and run 233 00:10:30,080 --> 00:10:32,080 Speaker 2: to the gym and do all of that. And like, 234 00:10:32,120 --> 00:10:34,120 Speaker 2: what's the price, What's what's the subscription price? 235 00:10:34,640 --> 00:10:39,240 Speaker 3: So it's forty nine dollars for the twenty eight day program. 236 00:10:39,400 --> 00:10:42,640 Speaker 6: All programs are the same price, forty nine dollars. 237 00:10:42,720 --> 00:10:46,840 Speaker 3: Yeah, but we run fifty percent off all the time, 238 00:10:47,120 --> 00:10:49,000 Speaker 3: Like if you get in the first week of a challenge, 239 00:10:49,200 --> 00:10:52,120 Speaker 3: it's gonna be fifty percent off. So okay, somebody saying, okay, 240 00:10:52,240 --> 00:10:55,400 Speaker 3: twenty five dollars a go you know, I mean it's 241 00:10:55,440 --> 00:10:56,840 Speaker 3: a go get.

It's not 252 00:11:26,000 --> 00:11:28,520 Speaker 3: like the deep slide of the same especially the same 253 00:11:28,559 --> 00:11:31,760 Speaker 3: thing you put it in a DVD and you just 254 00:11:31,800 --> 00:11:33,520 Speaker 3: pressed play. 255 00:11:34,720 --> 00:11:36,800 Speaker 5: The first time I heard about X twenty eight, it 256 00:11:36,840 --> 00:11:40,360 Speaker 5: was Mike before we even knew like what this was 257 00:11:40,400 --> 00:11:42,160 Speaker 5: going on.

The most guys go get a 273 00:12:20,440 --> 00:12:20,880 Speaker 3: partner and. 274 00:12:20,880 --> 00:12:22,240 Speaker 6: They go to La Fit and it's not knowing what 275 00:12:22,280 --> 00:12:24,120 Speaker 6: the hell they're doing and just work out. I mean, 276 00:12:24,200 --> 00:12:25,920 Speaker 6: like I was that guy. I just went to hit 277 00:12:26,000 --> 00:12:27,439 Speaker 6: chest every day, you know what I mean. 278 00:12:27,520 --> 00:12:30,520 Speaker 3: So in my gym, like I said, since it's more structured, 279 00:12:30,600 --> 00:12:33,840 Speaker 3: it's literally eighty percent women twenty percent guys. 280 00:12:33,880 --> 00:12:36,480 Speaker 6: And the same thing online when it comes to paying. 281 00:12:36,280 --> 00:12:40,040 Speaker 3: For stuff like that, you know, guys normally don't unless 282 00:12:40,040 --> 00:12:42,040 Speaker 3: you got like a like my boy Mike Rashid, he 283 00:12:42,080 --> 00:12:46,000 Speaker 3: got like an Alpha Alpha program for guds. He follows 284 00:12:46,080 --> 00:12:48,680 Speaker 3: us the big bro. That's my man. 285 00:12:48,920 --> 00:12:50,400 Speaker 2: So hold on, let me ask you this because that's 286 00:12:50,440 --> 00:12:54,400 Speaker 2: interesting because since most of the people are women, do 287 00:12:54,480 --> 00:12:58,360 Speaker 2: you feel that as a woman, women want to see 288 00:12:58,559 --> 00:13:01,200 Speaker 2: men training them or because the reason why I asked 289 00:13:01,280 --> 00:13:03,200 Speaker 2: is I was used to work in the financial services 290 00:13:03,240 --> 00:13:06,320 Speaker 2: industry and I heard somewhere that they said that women, 291 00:13:06,720 --> 00:13:09,080 Speaker 2: like most men, want to work with men as a 292 00:13:09,120 --> 00:13:13,840 Speaker 2: financial advisor. Most women don't map it doesn't they don't 293 00:13:13,880 --> 00:13:15,679 Speaker 2: mind it being a woman or a man, like they'll 294 00:13:15,720 --> 00:13:18,800 Speaker 2: work with men or women the same. Do you think 295 00:13:18,800 --> 00:13:20,720 Speaker 2: that that's the same for training, Like do you think 296 00:13:21,040 --> 00:13:24,280 Speaker 2: women want to work with women or see a woman 297 00:13:24,320 --> 00:13:26,040 Speaker 2: instructor or they don't mind if it's a man or 298 00:13:26,080 --> 00:13:26,439 Speaker 2: a woman. 299 00:13:26,720 --> 00:13:28,920 Speaker 7: I think it's really a little bit of both you have. 300 00:13:29,559 --> 00:13:32,520 Speaker 7: Personally myself, I prefer to work with a man, but 301 00:13:32,559 --> 00:13:34,000 Speaker 7: I have a lot of women that will reach out 302 00:13:34,040 --> 00:13:36,400 Speaker 7: to me, Hey, can you train me? I don't train, 303 00:13:36,920 --> 00:13:39,439 Speaker 7: and so I my husband does, and so you know, 304 00:13:39,480 --> 00:13:41,520 Speaker 7: they'll go on with him. So I think it's a 305 00:13:41,520 --> 00:13:43,320 Speaker 7: little bit of both. Some women they feel as if 306 00:13:43,679 --> 00:13:46,240 Speaker 7: being a woman you understand their body a little bit better. 307 00:13:46,280 --> 00:13:49,120 Speaker 7: So I want a female trainer. And then I happen 308 00:13:49,200 --> 00:13:50,920 Speaker 7: to think that a lot of the male trainers are 309 00:13:50,960 --> 00:13:53,080 Speaker 7: just a little bit more aggressive, a little bit more 310 00:13:53,120 --> 00:13:56,560 Speaker 7: you know, you know, And so depending on what soil 311 00:13:56,600 --> 00:13:58,600 Speaker 7: of training you like, you like that, you know, and 312 00:13:58,640 --> 00:14:00,440 Speaker 7: so it's like I want somebody to be on me, 313 00:14:00,480 --> 00:14:02,439 Speaker 7: you'll be a little harder on me. So I think 314 00:14:02,440 --> 00:14:04,240 Speaker 7: it's a little bit of both, to be honest with you, 315 00:14:04,520 --> 00:14:07,000 Speaker 7: it just depends on the person's personal preference. And I 316 00:14:07,000 --> 00:14:10,440 Speaker 7: find that women who are a little bit more timid 317 00:14:10,520 --> 00:14:14,359 Speaker 7: and shy in the gym. They want that female attention initially. 318 00:14:14,640 --> 00:14:16,960 Speaker 2: So let me ask you this because you guys, you 319 00:14:17,080 --> 00:14:20,200 Speaker 2: have a marriage obviously, but you have a business partnership 320 00:14:20,240 --> 00:14:23,080 Speaker 2: as well. But even in the business partnership, it's like 321 00:14:23,880 --> 00:14:26,760 Speaker 2: technically like your business partners even if you're not business 322 00:14:26,760 --> 00:14:28,360 Speaker 2: partners right, because it's like you said before, you was 323 00:14:28,400 --> 00:14:31,440 Speaker 2: like the gym, is is your gym just because y'all 324 00:14:31,480 --> 00:14:33,320 Speaker 2: have married. Like now what I'm saying, it's like he's 325 00:14:33,360 --> 00:14:35,840 Speaker 2: part of your clothing line because y'all married. So how 326 00:14:35,840 --> 00:14:38,360 Speaker 2: does that because a lot of couples might be listening, 327 00:14:38,760 --> 00:14:40,880 Speaker 2: how does that go into play as far as to say, okay, 328 00:14:40,880 --> 00:14:43,200 Speaker 2: like we're gonna talk about body envy, which is like 329 00:14:43,200 --> 00:14:46,920 Speaker 2: your your brain child, but if Jason gives input, it's 330 00:14:47,040 --> 00:14:48,960 Speaker 2: Jason your business partner in this or. 331 00:14:51,600 --> 00:14:54,760 Speaker 7: He is he is although I didn't necessarily want him 332 00:14:54,800 --> 00:14:57,720 Speaker 7: to be, he is. He automatically just becomes it. And 333 00:14:57,760 --> 00:15:01,200 Speaker 7: it's so funny because I have someone shouts out to 334 00:15:01,240 --> 00:15:04,280 Speaker 7: iman Dad. She handles a lot of things on Instagram 335 00:15:04,320 --> 00:15:07,240 Speaker 7: for me in terms of finding influencers and things to 336 00:15:07,240 --> 00:15:09,960 Speaker 7: do marketing. She'll communicate with him like She's like, I 337 00:15:10,000 --> 00:15:11,840 Speaker 7: talked to Jason already and Jason said this, this and that, 338 00:15:11,880 --> 00:15:15,000 Speaker 7: and I'm like, but you know, you gotta I make 339 00:15:15,040 --> 00:15:17,280 Speaker 7: the final decision, right, you know. So it's like, you know, 340 00:15:17,320 --> 00:15:20,040 Speaker 7: automatically we're partners, no matter if we want to be 341 00:15:20,200 --> 00:15:23,960 Speaker 7: or not. But it works because I can get complacent 342 00:15:24,560 --> 00:15:26,760 Speaker 7: and when I think, Okay, you know I've done enough, 343 00:15:26,880 --> 00:15:30,000 Speaker 7: this is good enough, He's like it's not. You're only 344 00:15:30,080 --> 00:15:32,440 Speaker 7: operating at thirty three percent. And I'm like, what do 345 00:15:32,440 --> 00:15:35,120 Speaker 7: you mean I do XYZ And he's like, no, but 346 00:15:35,200 --> 00:15:37,600 Speaker 7: you can do this, this and that to make your 347 00:15:37,600 --> 00:15:40,400 Speaker 7: business grow and be better. And I have to admit, 348 00:15:40,480 --> 00:15:43,240 Speaker 7: you know, he's been an entrepreneur way longer than I have. 349 00:15:43,320 --> 00:15:46,720 Speaker 7: I'm new to the game. He's been doing this for years, 350 00:15:46,760 --> 00:15:48,880 Speaker 7: and so I got to sometimes take a step back 351 00:15:48,920 --> 00:15:52,080 Speaker 7: and be like, you know what, Yeah, unfortunately I don't 352 00:15:52,120 --> 00:15:53,880 Speaker 7: like to hear it all the time, but this is 353 00:15:53,920 --> 00:15:55,720 Speaker 7: the best business partner that's. 354 00:15:55,680 --> 00:15:56,280 Speaker 3: Right, you know. 355 00:15:56,960 --> 00:15:58,720 Speaker 5: I saw him wear in the temetip man.

I hate to say 365 00:16:19,680 --> 00:16:21,960 Speaker 7: it that way, but it's allowed me personally to slow 366 00:16:22,080 --> 00:16:24,240 Speaker 7: down a little bit more so, Like you know, with 367 00:16:24,280 --> 00:16:26,080 Speaker 7: the classes.

I'm 527 00:23:33,800 --> 00:23:35,320 Speaker 7: still this is still, this is new. 528 00:23:38,320 --> 00:23:40,320 Speaker 4: The boxes in the hall, the. 529 00:23:41,080 --> 00:23:43,040 Speaker 7: Boxes, total chaos right now. 530 00:23:43,480 --> 00:23:46,040 Speaker 5: So it started out as apparel, but have you moved 531 00:23:46,080 --> 00:23:48,000 Speaker 5: into the eques like when you were working out. 532 00:23:48,040 --> 00:23:49,439 Speaker 4: There's like some equipment pieces now too. 533 00:23:49,760 --> 00:23:52,919 Speaker 7: So I have resistance vans and and that's actually how 534 00:23:52,960 --> 00:23:56,159 Speaker 7: I started was with resistance bands. Initially it was just 535 00:23:56,280 --> 00:23:58,720 Speaker 7: because I did I do lower body blasts with X 536 00:23:58,800 --> 00:24:01,080 Speaker 7: twenty eight and then with glue Care, it was let 537 00:24:01,119 --> 00:24:03,119 Speaker 7: me get my own fabric resistance bands, and so I 538 00:24:03,200 --> 00:24:06,199 Speaker 7: had that first. And that's how I started with e commerce, 539 00:24:06,440 --> 00:24:08,640 Speaker 7: was with that. And so every now and then I'll 540 00:24:08,680 --> 00:24:11,960 Speaker 7: put it back online with body Envy. But truly it's 541 00:24:12,000 --> 00:24:12,640 Speaker 7: mainly apparel. 542 00:24:13,119 --> 00:24:14,840 Speaker 5: So the only place can is it the place the 543 00:24:14,880 --> 00:24:17,000 Speaker 5: only place they can get it at the website or 544 00:24:17,080 --> 00:24:18,920 Speaker 5: is it like if I go on Amazon, I type 545 00:24:18,960 --> 00:24:20,199 Speaker 5: in body Envy, it'll be up there too. 546 00:24:20,520 --> 00:24:24,160 Speaker 7: It's coming. That's on the way. Amazon is on the way. 547 00:24:24,240 --> 00:24:27,480 Speaker 2: So let me ask you. Before I used, I know 548 00:24:27,600 --> 00:24:31,240 Speaker 2: he was getting merchandise from Ali Baba, which is located 549 00:24:31,240 --> 00:24:34,240 Speaker 2: in Chinese. To China, it's like the Chinese Amazon. Anybody, 550 00:24:34,240 --> 00:24:36,240 Speaker 2: it's not familiar. So with COVID, especially at the beginning 551 00:24:36,280 --> 00:24:39,200 Speaker 2: stages of COVID, a lot of shipments from China wasn't coming, 552 00:24:39,359 --> 00:24:42,040 Speaker 2: or it was delayed, whatever, how that affect. Did you 553 00:24:42,119 --> 00:24:43,879 Speaker 2: get a new supplier or I. 554 00:24:43,920 --> 00:24:46,800 Speaker 7: Did so I found two suppliers in La Okay. But 555 00:24:46,920 --> 00:24:49,800 Speaker 7: I have to say everything slowed down, even the La Connects, 556 00:24:49,840 --> 00:24:52,480 Speaker 7: although they're in the United States. Everything slowed down, and 557 00:24:52,600 --> 00:24:55,560 Speaker 7: so we did take a hit, so to speak, with 558 00:24:55,560 --> 00:24:56,960 Speaker 7: the inventory because we had to wait. 559 00:24:57,119 --> 00:25:02,080 Speaker 3: Shout out to my boy Barn Pakistan, shout them. 560 00:25:04,000 --> 00:25:09,080 Speaker 7: Yeah connect now. So I still do utilize Ali Baba. 561 00:25:09,080 --> 00:25:11,919 Speaker 7: I still utilize my California Connects as well. And now 562 00:25:11,960 --> 00:25:15,600 Speaker 7: I have somebody in Pakistan and we still have delays. 563 00:25:16,200 --> 00:25:18,440 Speaker 7: But what I do is I just order so much 564 00:25:18,800 --> 00:25:21,120 Speaker 7: so that when the delays HiT's I got this coming 565 00:25:21,200 --> 00:25:23,280 Speaker 7: from here, this coming from there. So I never have 566 00:25:23,840 --> 00:25:27,320 Speaker 7: a dead area whatsoever because something is always coming. 567 00:25:28,240 --> 00:25:30,200 Speaker 3: But she got time to tell the real quick the 568 00:25:31,560 --> 00:25:32,399 Speaker 3: Shopify story. 569 00:25:32,440 --> 00:25:36,560 Speaker 2: Of course, let's do it because some people first running back. 570 00:25:40,280 --> 00:25:44,119 Speaker 7: Yeah, okay, So I purchased the resistance vans for my class. 571 00:25:44,160 --> 00:25:46,959 Speaker 2: That's what it was for.

I need to do twenty. 691 00:30:50,080 --> 00:30:52,040 Speaker 7: The reason I need to do twenty is to really 692 00:30:52,080 --> 00:30:55,200 Speaker 7: really solidify this pension that I have worked eighteen years for. 693 00:30:55,920 --> 00:30:58,120 Speaker 7: And that's the big picture I think too. What people 694 00:30:58,240 --> 00:31:00,840 Speaker 7: need to hear also is you can be an entrepreneur 695 00:31:00,840 --> 00:31:02,680 Speaker 7: and still keep your nine to five. That's what you choose, 696 00:31:03,480 --> 00:31:04,719 Speaker 7: you know, because at the end of the day, one 697 00:31:04,720 --> 00:31:08,680 Speaker 7: of the biggest expenses for entrepreneurs is health insurance pay 698 00:31:08,800 --> 00:31:10,600 Speaker 7: for We don't have to worry about can we go 699 00:31:10,720 --> 00:31:12,520 Speaker 7: to the doctor? Can our kids go to the doctor? 700 00:31:12,560 --> 00:31:15,040 Speaker 7: You know, it's there. And I have a pension.

So eighteen years and I 704 00:31:23,760 --> 00:31:26,080 Speaker 7: need to do twenty to really maximize what I have 705 00:31:26,280 --> 00:31:30,360 Speaker 7: done in these eighteen years.

Yeah, exactly. 861 00:38:51,760 --> 00:38:53,719 Speaker 2: So when you was we talked before, you said, like 862 00:38:53,800 --> 00:38:57,319 Speaker 2: your marketing originally was like influencers, Instagram influencers. They helped 863 00:38:57,320 --> 00:39:00,279 Speaker 2: push the brand. You're still doubling down on it, Like 864 00:39:00,320 --> 00:39:03,040 Speaker 2: how what's the marketing for both programs for the for 865 00:39:03,120 --> 00:39:05,479 Speaker 2: the fitness program and for the for the clothing brand. 866 00:39:05,880 --> 00:39:07,480 Speaker 2: How are you getting the word to the people, how 867 00:39:07,520 --> 00:39:10,080 Speaker 2: are you market Is it paid the ads? Is it influencers? Like, 868 00:39:10,120 --> 00:39:10,640 Speaker 2: what's the deal? 869 00:39:12,400 --> 00:39:14,799 Speaker 3: We got a team, shouts out to leon. We got 870 00:39:14,840 --> 00:39:18,440 Speaker 3: a guy who run our Facebook ads going crazy. Just 871 00:39:18,440 --> 00:39:21,319 Speaker 3: to give an example, like with ads a lot of time, 872 00:39:21,400 --> 00:39:23,000 Speaker 3: like when we first started doing our ads with X 873 00:39:23,080 --> 00:39:25,080 Speaker 3: twenty eight, we were just flipping money. 874 00:39:25,440 --> 00:39:27,799 Speaker 6: We were spending thirty thousand dollars making seventy thousand dollars. 875 00:39:27,880 --> 00:39:30,960 Speaker 3: Thought we were winning. We hired a company, you know, 876 00:39:31,160 --> 00:39:33,479 Speaker 3: and now it's three times that amount, you know, thirty 877 00:39:33,520 --> 00:39:35,680 Speaker 3: thousand and making three hundred thousand. You know, So we 878 00:39:35,840 --> 00:39:36,440 Speaker 3: just didn't know that. 879 00:39:37,239 --> 00:39:40,000 Speaker 6: So when it comes to like her business, same thing, 880 00:39:40,120 --> 00:39:41,719 Speaker 6: you know, get the experts to do it. 881 00:39:41,840 --> 00:39:43,960 Speaker 3: You know. I looked at Denmi dot com. I looked 882 00:39:44,000 --> 00:39:46,200 Speaker 3: at everything, trying to learn it myself, but I would 883 00:39:46,280 --> 00:39:47,840 Speaker 3: rather go pay an expert, you know. I mean, so 884 00:39:47,920 --> 00:39:49,799 Speaker 3: that's what we did. We got a guy who does 885 00:39:49,840 --> 00:39:52,000 Speaker 3: the Facebook ads. We got a girl who go get 886 00:39:52,040 --> 00:39:52,920 Speaker 3: the influencers for it. 887 00:39:53,000 --> 00:39:55,040 Speaker 2: That's just her job, that's what she just reaches out. 888 00:39:55,200 --> 00:39:57,759 Speaker 3: All she does is DM influencers and tell us yeah, 889 00:39:57,800 --> 00:40:02,160 Speaker 3: and they you know, come back with astronomy prices, nego. 890 00:40:02,600 --> 00:40:08,360 Speaker 2: What has been more effective the influencers or the Facebook ads? Ads? 891 00:40:08,560 --> 00:40:09,320 Speaker 3: Ads? Undefeated? 892 00:40:09,400 --> 00:40:12,560 Speaker 7: Yeah, because with me with body Envy, initially started, I 893 00:40:12,880 --> 00:40:15,239 Speaker 7: was my the face. I am the face of body Envy. 894 00:40:15,320 --> 00:40:18,719 Speaker 7: But it was me constantly promoting the brand. And then 895 00:40:18,760 --> 00:40:20,920 Speaker 7: it was okay, let's look to some influencers. But of 896 00:40:20,960 --> 00:40:23,640 Speaker 7: course that's trial and error. You'll think, Okay, someone has 897 00:40:23,680 --> 00:40:26,600 Speaker 7: a million followers, so surely they're gonna drive traffic to 898 00:40:26,640 --> 00:40:29,120 Speaker 7: your business. That they do nothing for you. I mean 899 00:40:29,200 --> 00:40:32,520 Speaker 7: absolutely not, And so that's so touch and goal, depending 900 00:40:32,560 --> 00:40:35,160 Speaker 7: on who you utilize. So Jason kept telling me you 901 00:40:35,239 --> 00:40:37,560 Speaker 7: need to start running ads, and I'm looking at him like, no, 902 00:40:37,880 --> 00:40:39,440 Speaker 7: I'm not running ads. I don't want to spend that 903 00:40:39,480 --> 00:40:42,400 Speaker 7: money on ads. I don't want to do it. Finally, finally, 904 00:40:42,560 --> 00:40:45,400 Speaker 7: it's been four this is a fourth month with running ads, 905 00:40:45,880 --> 00:40:49,400 Speaker 7: and I might spend whatever I spend, I'm going to 906 00:40:49,480 --> 00:40:51,840 Speaker 7: make six to seven times whatever I spend. 907 00:40:52,719 --> 00:41:01,560 Speaker 3: So I told you, don't encourage. We already did it. 908 00:41:01,640 --> 00:41:02,880 Speaker 4: Let's go, let's go. 909 00:41:03,760 --> 00:41:06,040 Speaker 7: I give him so much pushback sometimes, but I'm like, 910 00:41:06,120 --> 00:41:07,640 Speaker 7: I'm looking at the numbers and I know what they 911 00:41:07,719 --> 00:41:09,640 Speaker 7: spend on ads for X twenty eight and I'm like, 912 00:41:09,960 --> 00:41:12,160 Speaker 7: I don't want to do that right now, not realizing 913 00:41:12,280 --> 00:41:13,960 Speaker 7: that it was going to do what it did for 914 00:41:14,120 --> 00:41:15,960 Speaker 7: my business. And so like he said, shouts out to 915 00:41:16,080 --> 00:41:19,759 Speaker 7: Leon when Leon sends me my graphs at the end 916 00:41:19,760 --> 00:41:22,520 Speaker 7: of the month and he's showing me exactly which ads 917 00:41:22,600 --> 00:41:25,319 Speaker 7: did what, and I'm looking at those conversions and I'm like, whoa, 918 00:41:26,200 --> 00:41:29,440 Speaker 7: who knew. So now I don't really utilize influencer marketing 919 00:41:29,520 --> 00:41:32,240 Speaker 7: because I don't have to because he's getting he's pushing 920 00:41:32,320 --> 00:41:34,880 Speaker 7: my brand to people who they might not follow. Those people. 921 00:41:35,239 --> 00:41:37,640 Speaker 7: You know, it's the moms who are sitting in the 922 00:41:37,680 --> 00:41:40,600 Speaker 7: house that don't follow the celebrities so to speak. They're 923 00:41:40,680 --> 00:41:43,480 Speaker 7: just following you, you know, their friends on social media 924 00:41:43,760 --> 00:41:45,920 Speaker 7: and they're seeing it and they're able to buy. And 925 00:41:46,080 --> 00:41:47,680 Speaker 7: so the ads changed the game. 926 00:41:47,800 --> 00:41:52,200 Speaker 2: It really did the Facebook ads work. It's like somebody 927 00:41:52,280 --> 00:41:54,880 Speaker 2: said to us, like, if I gave you a dollar 928 00:41:54,920 --> 00:41:57,000 Speaker 2: and you gave me back five, how many dollars would 929 00:41:57,040 --> 00:41:57,320 Speaker 2: you give me? 930 00:41:59,840 --> 00:42:05,600 Speaker 3: That's exactly how exactly how it works. And I tell people, 931 00:42:05,640 --> 00:42:08,960 Speaker 3: but even like with the Instagram adds, I always use 932 00:42:09,000 --> 00:42:11,400 Speaker 3: Alex for example, like if you know, you know, you know, 933 00:42:11,480 --> 00:42:13,240 Speaker 3: I was being and Alex to run ass he wouldn't 934 00:42:13,239 --> 00:42:15,200 Speaker 3: do it, wouldn't do it. Now his ad got getting 935 00:42:15,239 --> 00:42:17,279 Speaker 3: him like ten times, as you know what I mean, 936 00:42:17,360 --> 00:42:19,880 Speaker 3: shout out to Alex. But before then, what he was 937 00:42:19,960 --> 00:42:22,160 Speaker 3: doing was when he had eight thousand followers. I remember 938 00:42:22,239 --> 00:42:25,160 Speaker 3: Alex had videos with one hundred thousand views. How the 939 00:42:25,200 --> 00:42:28,040 Speaker 3: hell is he getting?

Make 940 00:42:28,120 --> 00:42:30,680 Speaker 3: an ad and just feed it, put one hundred hundred 941 00:42:30,719 --> 00:42:32,759 Speaker 3: dollars behind it, and after the seven days would you 942 00:42:32,840 --> 00:42:34,799 Speaker 3: like to do it again? And he just kept feeding 943 00:42:34,840 --> 00:42:37,480 Speaker 3: this one at this ad making all the money on Instagram, 944 00:42:37,560 --> 00:42:39,239 Speaker 3: you know what I mean. But a lot of people 945 00:42:39,280 --> 00:42:41,920 Speaker 3: think that you have to have a large following. You 946 00:42:42,000 --> 00:42:43,520 Speaker 3: got to know people, you gotta know, you gotta know 947 00:42:43,520 --> 00:42:46,600 Speaker 3: what you're doing.

I did that from months 993 00:44:33,160 --> 00:44:34,879 Speaker 7: because I just did not know. I had no idea. 994 00:44:35,000 --> 00:44:37,520 Speaker 7: So it was literally, you know, taking the time to 995 00:44:37,760 --> 00:44:40,400 Speaker 7: reach out to somebody else in this industry, not in 996 00:44:40,520 --> 00:44:43,040 Speaker 7: the same exact industry that I'm in, because I can't 997 00:44:43,080 --> 00:44:45,360 Speaker 7: expect for that person to feed me the game, so 998 00:44:45,480 --> 00:44:47,360 Speaker 7: to speak. But he literally sat down with me and 999 00:44:47,520 --> 00:44:50,640 Speaker 7: was like, hey, you need these apps. Things like just 1000 00:44:50,760 --> 00:44:53,600 Speaker 7: so when something's out of stock, back in stock apps 1001 00:44:53,640 --> 00:44:56,239 Speaker 7: so they get notified when it comes back in stock. 1002 00:44:56,400 --> 00:44:58,400 Speaker 7: Little things that you know you see all the time 1003 00:44:58,440 --> 00:45:00,800 Speaker 7: when you're shopping online. But why you're not integrating it 1004 00:45:00,880 --> 00:45:03,239 Speaker 7: into your own business, you know. But a lot of 1005 00:45:03,320 --> 00:45:04,920 Speaker 7: times you just don't know that that's an option to 1006 00:45:05,000 --> 00:45:06,480 Speaker 7: do it. You think these are big brands and so 1007 00:45:06,600 --> 00:45:08,680 Speaker 7: that's why they have these options, and not realizing that 1008 00:45:09,040 --> 00:45:11,040 Speaker 7: you can have them too. And so he gave me 1009 00:45:11,200 --> 00:45:14,719 Speaker 7: eleven different apps to add onto my platform, and I 1010 00:45:14,840 --> 00:45:17,560 Speaker 7: reached out, shout out to Continental g He handles all 1011 00:45:17,640 --> 00:45:21,800 Speaker 7: my web stuff for me, and he integrated everything for me. 1012 00:45:22,239 --> 00:45:26,080 Speaker 7: And so it's done. Now. They have all the different options. 1013 00:45:26,120 --> 00:45:27,680 Speaker 7: They have the timer when they check out, they have 1014 00:45:27,800 --> 00:45:29,239 Speaker 7: you know, when something comes back and sock. 1015 00:45:29,480 --> 00:45:31,200 Speaker 2: So what's the system that you haven't like? All right? 1016 00:45:31,480 --> 00:45:33,240 Speaker 2: I go to BODYNV dot com. 1017 00:45:34,920 --> 00:45:35,120 Speaker 3: App. 1018 00:45:35,680 --> 00:45:37,960 Speaker 2: Okay, they have an app now? So yeah, all right, 1019 00:45:42,080 --> 00:45:45,200 Speaker 2: so I go I ordered something. Now what happens? It 1020 00:45:45,320 --> 00:45:50,120 Speaker 2: goes to your assistant or somebody they get it. And 1021 00:45:51,000 --> 00:45:51,720 Speaker 2: what's the process. 1022 00:45:52,280 --> 00:45:55,560 Speaker 7: So I have an assistant who works. She works Monday 1023 00:45:55,600 --> 00:45:58,439 Speaker 7: through Thursday. That's her schedule. She only works five hours 1024 00:45:58,480 --> 00:46:01,240 Speaker 7: a day. It's all that's necessary. And and say, for instance, 1025 00:46:01,280 --> 00:46:04,239 Speaker 7: today orders came in today. When she comes to work 1026 00:46:04,280 --> 00:46:06,680 Speaker 7: on Monday, she logs in, she sees all the orders 1027 00:46:06,719 --> 00:46:09,800 Speaker 7: that have come so she's gonna ship out Friday, Saturday, 1028 00:46:09,960 --> 00:46:13,239 Speaker 7: Sunday orders on Monday go out Monday, she'll come in. 1029 00:46:13,440 --> 00:46:16,040 Speaker 7: She's gonna do I'm sorry Tuesday, she's gonna do Monday's orders. 1030 00:46:16,280 --> 00:46:19,960 Speaker 7: So she's always like a day behind. So she'll ship 1031 00:46:20,000 --> 00:46:21,880 Speaker 7: out the orders. So if you're getting their orders very quickly, 1032 00:46:22,160 --> 00:46:25,600 Speaker 7: and if something has to be pressed, so to speak, 1033 00:46:25,600 --> 00:46:28,280 Speaker 7: if something comes in and God forgive forbid, they forgot 1034 00:46:28,320 --> 00:46:30,080 Speaker 7: to put the logo on it, she'll handle that. But 1035 00:46:30,520 --> 00:46:33,680 Speaker 7: she handles everything as far as shipping, as far as 1036 00:46:33,719 --> 00:46:36,960 Speaker 7: the handling of it. My marketing manager city. If they 1037 00:46:37,040 --> 00:46:39,640 Speaker 7: have a discrepancy with something, they got the wrong size, 1038 00:46:39,760 --> 00:46:43,000 Speaker 7: or they didn't like it, she handles that aspect of things. 1039 00:46:43,040 --> 00:46:45,120 Speaker 7: So she'll respond to all the emails, she'll respond to 1040 00:46:45,160 --> 00:46:48,480 Speaker 7: all the dms. I don't touch any of that, none 1041 00:46:48,520 --> 00:46:50,480 Speaker 7: of that. Literally. I get a report at the end 1042 00:46:50,480 --> 00:46:52,520 Speaker 7: of the day, like these are the things that took place, 1043 00:46:52,600 --> 00:46:54,280 Speaker 7: these are the issues that we might have had today. 1044 00:46:54,320 --> 00:46:55,440 Speaker 7: This is how I address them. 1045 00:46:55,480 --> 00:46:55,920 Speaker 3: And that's that. 1046 00:46:57,200 --> 00:46:58,799 Speaker 4: Love so Ja, I'm gonna put you on the spot. 1047 00:46:58,880 --> 00:46:59,239 Speaker 4: Man body. 1048 00:46:59,320 --> 00:47:02,080 Speaker 5: Mv's doing well.

It's better 1067 00:47:46,680 --> 00:47:50,480 Speaker 2: to have like fewer options. Is that your philosophy or 1068 00:47:51,239 --> 00:47:51,600 Speaker 2: all right? 1069 00:47:53,360 --> 00:47:56,320 Speaker 3: I would so like this shirt right here, this is 1070 00:47:56,400 --> 00:47:59,680 Speaker 3: my shirt.

Neil does every single thing about 1139 00:50:53,680 --> 00:50:57,560 Speaker 3: let me see what everything I got my fitness and 1140 00:50:57,680 --> 00:51:00,440 Speaker 3: my clothing line with my wife, you know, and Alex trucks. 1141 00:51:00,520 --> 00:51:03,160 Speaker 3: But when you get together with a group of guys, 1142 00:51:03,239 --> 00:51:07,240 Speaker 3: you start understanding that basic business principles apply across the board, 1143 00:51:07,640 --> 00:51:09,600 Speaker 3: you know what I mean? Like I could literally say 1144 00:51:09,680 --> 00:51:12,040 Speaker 3: that Alex wasn't running ass bro you need to run ass. 1145 00:51:12,120 --> 00:51:14,960 Speaker 3: Now he makes six figures a month just from the 1146 00:51:15,080 --> 00:51:16,879 Speaker 3: ad part, you know. Like I said, I'm saying, I'm 1147 00:51:16,880 --> 00:51:18,879 Speaker 3: telling him that, but I just was on his ass 1148 00:51:18,920 --> 00:51:20,759 Speaker 3: about that, you know what I mean. Some of the 1149 00:51:20,840 --> 00:51:23,759 Speaker 3: things that Neil has implemented it in my business have 1150 00:51:23,880 --> 00:51:26,359 Speaker 3: five hundred even understanding the credit and things that nature 1151 00:51:26,400 --> 00:51:29,200 Speaker 3: trying to get my it's just so much, so. 1152 00:51:29,280 --> 00:51:31,080 Speaker 6: Much value there, you know what I mean. So even 1153 00:51:31,400 --> 00:51:32,360 Speaker 6: you know, when you guys. 1154 00:51:32,200 --> 00:51:34,080 Speaker 3: Come in town, we start talking to y'all, and it's 1155 00:51:34,120 --> 00:51:36,799 Speaker 3: just everybody from all different walks of life. You're gonna 1156 00:51:36,800 --> 00:51:39,799 Speaker 3: be able to pick something out of something and apply 1157 00:51:39,920 --> 00:51:41,120 Speaker 3: to your business, you know what I mean. So I 1158 00:51:41,160 --> 00:51:44,359 Speaker 3: think that's very important because every week we've learned something new, 1159 00:51:44,480 --> 00:51:47,480 Speaker 3: Like we're just learning. We know our port chops and 1160 00:51:47,520 --> 00:51:50,200 Speaker 3: all that, but we learning every week, you know what 1161 00:51:50,200 --> 00:51:52,000 Speaker 3: I mean. And it's a good vibe, good energy, and 1162 00:51:52,080 --> 00:51:53,799 Speaker 3: we invite other guys in, you know what I mean, 1163 00:51:53,920 --> 00:51:55,840 Speaker 3: put their input and pour into it. So we just 1164 00:51:56,000 --> 00:51:57,839 Speaker 3: really just pouring into each other every week. 1165 00:52:00,120 --> 00:52:01,640 Speaker 2: I want you to talk about the gym because you 1166 00:52:01,800 --> 00:52:03,680 Speaker 2: said something internal like the gym is more so like 1167 00:52:03,760 --> 00:52:06,279 Speaker 2: a flagship store at this point where it's like the 1168 00:52:06,440 --> 00:52:09,320 Speaker 2: online is like the lion share of like revenue, but 1169 00:52:09,800 --> 00:52:12,239 Speaker 2: the gym is like, like I said, that's kind of 1170 00:52:12,280 --> 00:52:15,160 Speaker 2: how I look at it as more like a huge 1171 00:52:15,239 --> 00:52:18,080 Speaker 2: brand that just has like one physical location, like a 1172 00:52:18,440 --> 00:52:20,839 Speaker 2: fashion over. They used to have a store, a couple 1173 00:52:20,880 --> 00:52:23,560 Speaker 2: of different stores, but most of their money's coming online. 1174 00:52:24,040 --> 00:52:26,160 Speaker 2: So talk about that and like the importance of just 1175 00:52:26,280 --> 00:52:30,040 Speaker 2: having that physical location because people say brick and mortar 1176 00:52:30,120 --> 00:52:31,680 Speaker 2: is dead, but you're still doing both. You still have 1177 00:52:31,719 --> 00:52:35,040 Speaker 2: a brick and mortar, but you're actually still executing online. 1178 00:52:35,120 --> 00:52:36,880 Speaker 2: That's what I said too before COVID hit. I'm like, 1179 00:52:37,560 --> 00:52:39,759 Speaker 2: to me, I don't feel brick and mortar is dead, 1180 00:52:39,880 --> 00:52:41,279 Speaker 2: but I feel like if you don't have a way 1181 00:52:41,320 --> 00:52:43,359 Speaker 2: to get money online, your brick and mortar isn't going 1182 00:52:43,400 --> 00:52:45,319 Speaker 2: to survive. You can't just for a lot of days 1183 00:52:45,360 --> 00:52:47,919 Speaker 2: of just having a hot dog standing think you're gonna 1184 00:52:47,920 --> 00:52:50,279 Speaker 2: get riches over Like, no matter what you do, you 1185 00:52:50,480 --> 00:52:52,600 Speaker 2: have to have in order to scale it. You have 1186 00:52:52,719 --> 00:52:56,040 Speaker 2: to have an online situation. So talk about like, you know, 1187 00:52:56,239 --> 00:52:58,520 Speaker 2: just having that physical gym and the importance of that. 1188 00:52:58,800 --> 00:53:00,239 Speaker 6: Like I said to my friends, like, if you don't 1189 00:53:00,239 --> 00:53:02,240 Speaker 6: have if your business is online, you don't have a business. 1190 00:53:02,320 --> 00:53:02,440 Speaker 3: You know. 1191 00:53:02,520 --> 00:53:04,520 Speaker 6: We just joke and say that, but it's it's it's 1192 00:53:04,560 --> 00:53:06,680 Speaker 6: a lot of truth behind that, you know what I mean. 1193 00:53:07,239 --> 00:53:10,280 Speaker 7: From your analogy for the gym in the online program. 1194 00:53:10,640 --> 00:53:14,960 Speaker 3: So the gym is like my music video, and the 1195 00:53:15,440 --> 00:53:17,600 Speaker 3: online program is the album. The music video is just 1196 00:53:17,640 --> 00:53:19,560 Speaker 3: what you see that's gonna make you buy the app, 1197 00:53:19,560 --> 00:53:21,080 Speaker 3: you know what I mean, Like buy into the brand. 1198 00:53:21,480 --> 00:53:23,600 Speaker 3: So when you look at my gym, you might see 1199 00:53:23,600 --> 00:53:26,160 Speaker 3: a guy who gets about a wheelchair, you know what 1200 00:53:26,200 --> 00:53:28,399 Speaker 3: I mean. And I'm documenting him every day. Now he's 1201 00:53:28,400 --> 00:53:30,319 Speaker 3: out that wheelchair. You taking one step. Now he's running 1202 00:53:30,320 --> 00:53:32,480 Speaker 3: across the gym. You see this one girl, she was 1203 00:53:32,520 --> 00:53:35,479 Speaker 3: one hundred eighty pounds, now she's one hundred twenty pounds, 1204 00:53:35,480 --> 00:53:36,920 Speaker 3: you know what I mean. So I like to keep 1205 00:53:36,960 --> 00:53:38,560 Speaker 3: shooting there. 1206 00:53:40,239 --> 00:53:40,640 Speaker 2: Hearts in. 1207 00:53:42,360 --> 00:53:44,360 Speaker 4: Jim going there.

Don't We literally just don't 1215 00:54:04,960 --> 00:54:07,480 Speaker 3: have to be there. I mean, but it's so funny. 1216 00:54:07,520 --> 00:54:09,720 Speaker 3: Even after we made a million dollars first year of business, 1217 00:54:09,920 --> 00:54:12,440 Speaker 3: and we did twice that second year of business, I'm 1218 00:54:12,480 --> 00:54:14,439 Speaker 3: waking up at four o'clock in the morning, I'm going 1219 00:54:14,480 --> 00:54:16,839 Speaker 3: to the gym at five o'clock opening the door. 1220 00:54:17,160 --> 00:54:19,200 Speaker 6: I'm acting like I ain't made a dollar, you know 1221 00:54:19,239 --> 00:54:19,680 Speaker 6: what I'm saying. 1222 00:54:19,719 --> 00:54:21,880 Speaker 3: And I was telling my wife, like, you know, like 1223 00:54:21,960 --> 00:54:24,200 Speaker 3: you never broke again, Like I don't want to do it, 1224 00:54:24,239 --> 00:54:25,279 Speaker 3: you know what I mean, Like I don't want to 1225 00:54:25,360 --> 00:54:27,160 Speaker 3: go back to what I was.

We're the same person. 1425 01:02:46,920 --> 01:02:53,040 Speaker 3: Like we spit kids out to get understand me, to 1426 01:02:53,120 --> 01:02:56,200 Speaker 3: understand that I'm the same person. So even when she's 1427 01:02:56,240 --> 01:02:58,240 Speaker 3: messing up, like I'm drilling in her head, like we 1428 01:02:58,560 --> 01:03:00,560 Speaker 3: messing up, we gotta do it like this, you know 1429 01:03:00,600 --> 01:03:02,600 Speaker 3: what I mean.

So absolutely, 1444 01:03:39,280 --> 01:03:40,840 Speaker 7: you know at the end of the day, whether it's 1445 01:03:40,920 --> 01:03:43,640 Speaker 7: you know, your partnership in life. And so if if 1446 01:03:43,680 --> 01:03:46,440 Speaker 7: whatever he's got, I've got to whatever I've got, he's got. 1447 01:03:46,520 --> 01:03:48,920 Speaker 7: And when you have that same mentality, there's no secrets. 1448 01:03:49,040 --> 01:03:50,640 Speaker 7: I know what's in his bank account.

Support support 1496 01:06:07,000 --> 01:06:09,440 Speaker 2: and not only support, but actually benefits. I'm a big 1497 01:06:09,480 --> 01:06:10,920 Speaker 2: I'm a big believer. I don't think you should just 1498 01:06:10,960 --> 01:06:12,680 Speaker 2: buy anything just out of support. That's more of a 1499 01:06:12,800 --> 01:06:15,600 Speaker 2: charity thing. And when you can actually get benefit for something. 1500 01:06:15,680 --> 01:06:18,200 Speaker 2: So you're talking about taking your health and you know, 1501 01:06:18,320 --> 01:06:21,000 Speaker 2: sitting in your home, your living room, being able to 1502 01:06:21,040 --> 01:06:22,920 Speaker 2: work out for twenty five dollars a month, I mean, 1503 01:06:23,200 --> 01:06:25,360 Speaker 2: if you're not willing to invest twenty five dollars in 1504 01:06:25,400 --> 01:06:28,600 Speaker 2: your health, when you spending twenty five dollars a month 1505 01:06:28,720 --> 01:06:32,760 Speaker 2: on once, you're random nonsense, like you know what I'm saying, Like, 1506 01:06:32,800 --> 01:06:34,520 Speaker 2: what do you really have to lose at that point? 1507 01:06:34,840 --> 01:06:36,360 Speaker 2: It's like, even if you only work out a few 1508 01:06:36,400 --> 01:06:38,400 Speaker 2: days a month, it's worth It's probably worth one day, 1509 01:06:38,440 --> 01:06:41,080 Speaker 2: it's probably worth twenty five dollars. So for me, that's 1510 01:06:41,120 --> 01:06:44,200 Speaker 2: how I always look at any kind of nutrition or 1511 01:06:44,320 --> 01:06:47,840 Speaker 2: workout anything like that. I never skim on anything like 1512 01:06:47,920 --> 01:06:49,760 Speaker 2: that because I feel like your body is your most 1513 01:06:49,800 --> 01:06:53,000 Speaker 2: important investment. If your body's not right, no matter how 1514 01:06:53,080 --> 01:06:55,600 Speaker 2: much money you have, no matter what, you can't fully 1515 01:06:55,680 --> 01:06:58,200 Speaker 2: operate and it's not you're not going to feel good 1516 01:06:58,200 --> 01:07:03,320 Speaker 2: about the situation. So I highly encourage everybody to start 1517 01:07:03,360 --> 01:07:06,840 Speaker 2: eating well, to work out, and during this time of COVID, 1518 01:07:06,920 --> 01:07:09,600 Speaker 2: this is a perfect opportunity. You home a lot, you 1519 01:07:09,680 --> 01:07:12,880 Speaker 2: can pick up weight just watching Netflix, just eating. It's 1520 01:07:12,960 --> 01:07:16,160 Speaker 2: like being in college, you know what I mean, in fifteen. 1521 01:07:16,320 --> 01:07:18,480 Speaker 4: Yeah, it's the COVID thirty right now. 1522 01:07:20,440 --> 01:07:22,640 Speaker 2: Yeah. And also you know we talked about mental health 1523 01:07:22,680 --> 01:07:25,400 Speaker 2: as well. It's like we got to watch depression and 1524 01:07:25,480 --> 01:07:28,560 Speaker 2: things that nature. And it's been proven that the more 1525 01:07:28,600 --> 01:07:31,280 Speaker 2: you work out, the more you're endorphins flow. It stops 1526 01:07:31,320 --> 01:07:33,040 Speaker 2: that you know, you're staying at home or time that 1527 01:07:33,120 --> 01:07:36,080 Speaker 2: can lead to depression, that can lead to high levels 1528 01:07:36,120 --> 01:07:40,120 Speaker 2: of anxiety. So just managing that, working out, eating well, 1529 01:07:40,640 --> 01:07:43,880 Speaker 2: running cardio, stuff like that you'd be surprised of, like 1530 01:07:44,400 --> 01:07:48,120 Speaker 2: how that actually influences and affects you on a mental level. 1531 01:07:48,200 --> 01:07:50,800 Speaker 2: So it's a lot of different stuff that you know, 1532 01:07:51,040 --> 01:07:54,000 Speaker 2: we everybody, but especially we as black people, we have 1533 01:07:54,160 --> 01:07:56,400 Speaker 2: to take our health more serious and we have to 1534 01:07:56,440 --> 01:07:59,200 Speaker 2: become more health conscious. So I encourage everybody to check down. 1535 01:07:59,240 --> 01:08:01,120 Speaker 5: As I said, it is gonna be well wealthy. We have, 1536 01:08:01,440 --> 01:08:05,800 Speaker 5: we have tried and tested.
