107
00:04:57,240 --> 00:04:59,919
Speaker 2: even start? I mean, let's talk about why in the

108
00:05:00,240 --> 00:05:01,360
Speaker 2: you'd play Arena football?

109
00:05:01,560 --> 00:05:04,599
Speaker 1: Oh dude, it so. I mean it started on draft day,

110
00:05:04,600 --> 00:05:07,120
Speaker 1: like obviously, like I'm training for the Combine and didn't

111
00:05:07,120 --> 00:05:09,640
Speaker 1: get invite to the Combine. Like I had a good

112
00:05:09,640 --> 00:05:12,840
Speaker 1: senior season. I was playing safety at the time. I

113
00:05:12,960 --> 00:05:15,279
Speaker 1: led the big tenant interceptions that year, Like thought I

114
00:05:15,320 --> 00:05:17,840
Speaker 1: had a chance at least to get it, like undrafted, uh,

115
00:05:18,120 --> 00:05:21,039
Speaker 1: free agent deal something along those lines. Draft day rolls on,

116
00:05:21,279 --> 00:05:24,080
Speaker 1: I get zero phone calls. I get the only person

117
00:05:24,120 --> 00:05:26,160
Speaker 1: that called me on draft day was my agent, and

118
00:05:26,160 --> 00:05:28,280
Speaker 1: Pat Fitzgerald asked me, like what the deal was.

119
00:05:28,320 --> 00:05:31,600
Speaker 2: And you, uh, sorry interrupt, but you had the most interceptions,

120
00:05:32,720 --> 00:05:33,799
Speaker 2: you were coming off the most.

121
00:05:33,839 --> 00:05:35,800
Speaker 4: You said something, you had a stat getting off.

122
00:05:36,040 --> 00:05:38,760
Speaker 1: I led the big tenant interceptions, That's what I'm saying. Yeah, yeah,

123
00:05:38,800 --> 00:05:40,800
Speaker 1: so like at least like some kind of look for

124
00:05:40,839 --> 00:05:42,800
Speaker 1: like a roommate. Some plays had a hunter tackle like

125
00:05:42,800 --> 00:05:44,520
Speaker 1: that kind of deal, Like I thought I had a chance.

126
00:05:44,560 --> 00:05:46,000
Speaker 1: Like I'm not saying, like, you can't even get a

127
00:05:46,040 --> 00:05:49,240
Speaker 1: rookie mini camp tryout now. So so so as the

128
00:05:49,279 --> 00:05:52,520
Speaker 1: story rolls on, So like four days later, we had

129
00:05:52,520 --> 00:05:55,960
Speaker 1: a Northwestern guy down in the Buccaneers training camp and

130
00:05:56,000 --> 00:05:58,400
Speaker 1: he got me in for like the tryout and their

131
00:05:58,440 --> 00:06:00,719
Speaker 1: mini camp. And their mini camp was crazy because it

132
00:06:00,760 --> 00:06:03,440
Speaker 1: was Schiano's first year down there. Oh I I've never

133
00:06:03,440 --> 00:06:06,760
Speaker 1: heard good things, dude, Savage. So like, so it's a

134
00:06:06,760 --> 00:06:09,040
Speaker 1: three day mini camp and we're running two A days

135
00:06:09,400 --> 00:06:10,960
Speaker 1: and so we got to two A days and then

136
00:06:11,000 --> 00:06:13,240
Speaker 1: one more practice, but we're doing strength and conditioning in

137
00:06:13,320 --> 00:06:16,760
Speaker 1: between the two days so we hit a workout, or

138
00:06:16,800 --> 00:06:19,680
Speaker 1: so we hit a practice, then we did a workout

139
00:06:19,839 --> 00:06:22,400
Speaker 1: and we run hundreds during at the end of the workout,

140
00:06:22,400 --> 00:06:23,960
Speaker 1: and then we go out for a second practice. So

141
00:06:24,000 --> 00:06:26,680
Speaker 1: I'm playing safety at this point. Second practice, we have

142
00:06:26,720 --> 00:06:29,120
Speaker 1: three linebackers pop hamstring. So I go down and play

143
00:06:29,120 --> 00:06:31,240
Speaker 1: sam linebacker because I was the biggest safety. You're gonna

144
00:06:31,240 --> 00:06:34,680
Speaker 1: have some soft tissue injuries too, Yeah, fucking yeah. Little overtraining,

145
00:06:35,040 --> 00:06:38,000
Speaker 1: a sprinkle of overtraining. So I switched down to sam

146
00:06:38,040 --> 00:06:40,800
Speaker 1: backer and ended up holding my own. I had Brian Cox.

147
00:06:40,880 --> 00:06:44,320
Speaker 1: He's an old dog from oh I saw good videos. Yeah, yeah,

148
00:06:44,360 --> 00:06:47,159
Speaker 1: he's either he's a he's a saucy motherfucker. He's a stud.

149
00:06:47,520 --> 00:06:50,440
Speaker 1: But like that was like my first lesson and like

150
00:06:50,560 --> 00:06:52,440
Speaker 1: showing like I had a good camp. They're like, hey,

151
00:06:52,760 --> 00:06:55,240
Speaker 1: you come back here and you gain twenty pounds that

152
00:06:55,320 --> 00:06:56,479
Speaker 1: kind of deal. So I was like, all right, I

153
00:06:56,480 --> 00:06:58,599
Speaker 1: got a chance to get signed. I'm leaving feeling pretty good.

154
00:06:58,920 --> 00:07:01,440
Speaker 1: And I had like another work out the following weekend

155
00:07:01,520 --> 00:07:03,960
Speaker 1: for the Bears mini camp, and they like that was

156
00:07:04,000 --> 00:07:06,279
Speaker 1: like but like so down in Tampa. That was Mark

157
00:07:06,320 --> 00:07:08,120
Speaker 1: Baron's rookie year. So he was like a safety that

158
00:07:08,240 --> 00:07:10,960
Speaker 1: came in and did they end up having like another

159
00:07:11,040 --> 00:07:14,400
Speaker 1: undrafted freegent sign that kind of thing. Anyways, long story short,

160
00:07:14,480 --> 00:07:17,160
Speaker 1: they didn't sign me, but I got like my first

161
00:07:17,240 --> 00:07:19,640
Speaker 1: lesson on like how to show up for a workout

162
00:07:19,680 --> 00:07:21,480
Speaker 1: and that kind of thing. Brian Cox was a savage.

163
00:07:21,480 --> 00:07:23,880
Speaker 1: He's like basically saying, like, any chance you have a

164
00:07:23,920 --> 00:07:26,720
Speaker 1: time to show your physical show effort. He goes, never

165
00:07:26,800 --> 00:07:28,400
Speaker 1: lose that. Because there's like a time I met this

166
00:07:28,520 --> 00:07:30,160
Speaker 1: full back in a hole and it was tag off

167
00:07:30,520 --> 00:07:32,800
Speaker 1: and like I tagged off. He goes, would you hit

168
00:07:32,840 --> 00:07:34,920
Speaker 1: him there? I was like, I was like, yeah, of

169
00:07:34,960 --> 00:07:37,960
Speaker 1: course I would have dropped him. And he goes, no,

170
00:07:37,960 --> 00:07:39,680
Speaker 1: we're not in pads with just some helmets. And he

171
00:07:39,760 --> 00:07:41,440
Speaker 1: goes he goes, I don't know that. He goes, never

172
00:07:41,440 --> 00:07:43,560
Speaker 1: passed up an opportunity to fuck up, fuck up a dude.

173
00:07:43,600 --> 00:07:44,840
Speaker 1: I was like, and that's stuck in the back of

174
00:07:44,840 --> 00:07:47,240
Speaker 1: my mind. And that showed up up in the CFL.

175
00:07:47,280 --> 00:07:49,920
Speaker 1: But like from there, went to the Bears work Bears

176
00:07:50,000 --> 00:07:52,840
Speaker 1: tryout and did I bawled like I had two picks

177
00:07:52,880 --> 00:07:54,720
Speaker 1: in the mini camp. They had this third round draft

178
00:07:54,760 --> 00:07:56,320
Speaker 1: pick that he didn't pan Out. He was out of

179
00:07:56,320 --> 00:07:58,640
Speaker 1: the league in like two years, but like outplayed him.

180
00:07:58,640 --> 00:08:00,560
Speaker 1: Thought I had a chance. But like that was those

181
00:08:00,560 --> 00:08:02,720
Speaker 1: two camps, Like they showed that I could They told

183
00:08:04,160 --> 00:08:05,920
Speaker 1: like I knew I could play now, So like that's

184
00:08:05,960 --> 00:08:07,480

253
00:10:53,880 --> 00:10:56,320
Speaker 1: They picked up all the loose NFL guys, so cut

254
00:10:56,360 --> 00:10:59,319
Speaker 1: half the roster. I was out of there, crushed, thought

255
00:10:59,360 --> 00:11:02,280
Speaker 1: like my foot all career was over because my agent

256
00:11:02,320 --> 00:11:06,240
Speaker 1: wasn't saying shit. And then I came back to Chicago

257
00:11:06,280 --> 00:11:08,679
Speaker 1: like kind of kept training. My agent was just like like,

258
00:11:08,800 --> 00:11:10,880
Speaker 1: we don't want to go to Canada because you have

259
00:11:10,920 --> 00:11:12,800
Speaker 1: to sign a two year deal all like I said,

260
00:11:12,840 --> 00:11:14,360
Speaker 1: I was like, I'm I want to play football, and

261
00:11:14,360 --> 00:11:16,280
Speaker 1: you get back to the NFL. So he sends out

262
00:11:16,320 --> 00:11:19,520
Speaker 1: lines to his CFL contacts and NFL again hang on

263
00:11:20,280 --> 00:11:20,680
Speaker 1: slow down.

264
00:11:21,000 --> 00:11:24,640
Speaker 4: So how long were you in the arena circuit? Like

265
00:11:24,679 --> 00:11:25,760
Speaker 4: you're still kind of in it right now?

266
00:11:25,800 --> 00:11:25,880
Speaker 5: Right?

267
00:11:25,920 --> 00:11:28,680
Speaker 1: No, no, no, So arena's done. Arena was like four

268
00:11:28,760 --> 00:11:30,520
Speaker 1: or five weeks. So at what point of the year

269
00:11:30,559 --> 00:11:33,280
Speaker 1: is Arena playing. I think that was June, so like then,

270
00:11:33,559 --> 00:11:35,280
Speaker 1: so you're in June about to go into the new

271
00:11:35,400 --> 00:11:37,559
Speaker 1: NFL training Yeah, so like the next season, so I

272
00:11:37,600 --> 00:11:40,040
Speaker 1: guess it was July. No, so July, so my rookie,

273
00:11:40,120 --> 00:11:42,599
Speaker 1: so that was twenty twelve I came out, ye, and

274
00:11:42,920 --> 00:11:47,200
Speaker 1: so yeah, so probably July. And then whenever cuts are

275
00:11:47,240 --> 00:11:50,000
Speaker 1: in football August yeah yeah, so like so it's probably

276
00:11:50,000 --> 00:11:53,640
Speaker 1: middle of July to August. And because of then, yeah,

277
00:11:53,679 --> 00:11:55,960
Speaker 1: so then there's a week week or ten day break

278
00:11:56,040 --> 00:11:58,520
Speaker 1: before the UFL. I was in the UFL for two weeks.

279
00:11:58,640 --> 00:12:02,120
Speaker 1: NFL had their cuts wash the board. So now NFL

280
00:12:02,200 --> 00:12:06,360
Speaker 1: is starting, I'm hearing nothing from NFL or CFL, and

281

Speaker 1: six weeks, I was ship. I was almost up to

437
00:19:17,359 --> 00:19:19,720
Speaker 1: like linebacker weight, so I gained more weight than I lost.

438
00:19:20,080 --> 00:19:22,600
Speaker 1: I was the strongest I've ever been because like, but

439
00:19:22,680 --> 00:19:25,000

00:19:25,000 --> 00:19:27,080
Speaker 1: I was blending up steaks, I was blending up cookies.

441
00:19:27,119 --> 00:19:29,720
Speaker 1: I was blending up Chipotle. So like my diet was

442
00:19:29,800 --> 00:19:31,760
Speaker 1: like three liter cups and I was just drinking my

443
00:19:31,960 --> 00:19:34,320
Speaker 1: entire diet and made it happen, and supplements and everything

444
00:19:35,200 --> 00:19:38,479
Speaker 1: but bananas. So yeah, it's super crazy. But anyways, uh

445
00:19:38,920 --> 00:19:42,680
Speaker 1: from there, that's fucking nuts. Yeah, that's fucking awesome. Yeah yeah,

446
00:19:42,720 --> 00:19:44,600
Speaker 1: but I mean that's I did. I did to myself.

447
00:19:44,720 --> 00:19:46,600
Speaker 1: I got your boy got a little too crazy and

448
00:19:47,160 --> 00:19:49,200
Speaker 1: well yeah, yeah for sure, but I still didn't deserve

449
00:19:49,280 --> 00:19:49,600
Speaker 1: that ship.

450
00:19:49,720 --> 00:19:53,000
Speaker 2: Yeah, like nobody's gonna be, you know, blending up steaks

451
00:19:53,040 --> 00:19:55,040
Speaker 2: and Chipotle and thinking about getting their way back.

452
00:19:55,359 --> 00:19:57,880
Speaker 1: Yeah, but so like kind of at this point now,

453
00:19:59,440 --> 00:20:01,080
Speaker 1: like I like I I kept training with them and

454
00:20:01,119 --> 00:20:02,720
Speaker 1: that kind of thing, and then eventually went back and

455
00:20:02,760 --> 00:20:05,359
Speaker 1: did northwesterns Pro Day the following year, and I was

456
00:20:05,400 --> 00:20:07,399
Speaker 1: switching the linebacker at this point. Now is gonna go

457
00:20:07,440 --> 00:20:10,480
Speaker 1: play some linebacker safety in Canada. And since I didn't

458
00:20:10,480 --> 00:20:11,840
Speaker 1: get a shot at safety, I'm gonna try and play

459
00:20:11,840 --> 00:20:14,480
Speaker 1: linebacker because I know I can play. And so I

460
00:20:14,560 --> 00:20:16,680
Speaker 1: go to the Pro day. I run faster, jump higher,

461
00:20:16,800 --> 00:20:18,760
Speaker 1: like all my numbers are better, even though I gained

462
00:20:18,800 --> 00:20:22,320
Speaker 1: twenty pounds. So and that's where like now, like I

463
00:20:22,440 --> 00:20:25,959
Speaker 1: see the relationship between the leg strength, the supplements, all

464
00:20:26,000 --> 00:20:27,960
Speaker 1: these things. So I start to go and like I

465
00:20:28,040 --> 00:20:30,120
Speaker 1: started to get like addicted to the to the gym

466
00:20:30,240 --> 00:20:32,720
Speaker 1: into like bettering myself and chasing these edges to be

467
00:20:33,440 --> 00:20:35,359
Speaker 1: just to be better and get the shot that I wanted.

468
00:20:35,720 --> 00:20:38,159
Speaker 1: So I go up to Canada, and low key I

469
00:20:38,200 --> 00:20:39,720
Speaker 1: got cut from Canada and they put me on Pea

470
00:20:39,720 --> 00:20:42,840
Speaker 1: squad for a little bit. And then in the story

471
00:20:42,960 --> 00:20:45,240
Speaker 1: and so the only reason I got active the first

472
00:20:45,280 --> 00:20:48,560
Speaker 1: time in Canada so that in Canada football fields longer

473
00:20:48,600 --> 00:20:51,000
Speaker 1: and wider and the field goal is on the goal line.

474
00:20:51,520 --> 00:20:55,200
Speaker 1: So this one of our other like our weekside linebacker

475
00:20:55,880 --> 00:20:58,480
Speaker 1: was covering this post route and runs into the field

476
00:20:58,520 --> 00:21:00,479
Speaker 1: goal and breaks his collar bone. And so I get

477
00:21:00,520 --> 00:21:03,119
Speaker 1: an opportunity to be active and start eating on special

478
00:21:03,160 --> 00:21:07,480
Speaker 1: teams up there and eventually earn the starting spot on defense,

479
00:21:07,720 --> 00:21:10,320
Speaker 1: play another year up there and get the opportunity to

480
00:21:10,400 --> 00:21:13,920
Speaker 1: come back to uh the NFL with the with the Vikings.

481
00:21:13,960 --> 00:21:15,680
Speaker 1: But that was a whole another mess in and of

482
00:21:15,760 --> 00:21:18,160
Speaker 1: itself because I get back or sorry, I'm at home

483
00:21:18,200 --> 00:21:22,840
Speaker 1: after my contract and the the the rough Riders call

484
00:21:22,960 --> 00:21:25,360
Speaker 1: me and say, hey, who's your agent because they don't

485
00:21:25,400 --> 00:21:31,520
Speaker 1: remember because I initially initially made the contact. Yeah. So anyways,

486
00:21:31,560 --> 00:21:34,200
Speaker 1: they're like, like, the the Eagles and the Saints want

487
00:21:34,240 --> 00:21:36,120
Speaker 1: to work you out. So I was like, all right, cool,

488
00:21:36,200 --> 00:21:38,720
Speaker 1: like put them in touch with my agent. I work

489
00:21:38,720 --> 00:21:40,200
Speaker 1: out for the teams, but I work out for the

490
00:21:40,400 --> 00:21:44,119
Speaker 1: Eagles first, have a really good workout, and they they

491
00:21:44,200 --> 00:21:45,760
Speaker 1: do your blood work and X rays and all that

492
00:21:45,800 --> 00:21:47,760
Speaker 1: kind of stuff at the workouts, and they go, hey,

493
00:21:48,160 --> 00:21:51,480
Speaker 1: something's wrong with your blood work. It's probably it's probably

494
00:21:51,480 --> 00:21:55,719
Speaker 1: a lab air, but uh go get your blood work

495
00:21:55,760 --> 00:21:57,479
Speaker 1: tested to get and sent to us. And I'm a Serano,

496
00:21:57,680 --> 00:22:00,359
Speaker 1: so uh I was like, Doc, like, I say, I

497
00:22:00,400 --> 00:22:02,520
Speaker 1: have low blood platelets and I go, I don't know

498
00:22:02,600 --> 00:22:04,800
Speaker 1: what that means. And he goes, oh shit. He goes

499
00:22:05,359 --> 00:22:07,520
Speaker 1: like low blood plates usually means cancer and all these

500
00:22:07,600 --> 00:22:09,119
Speaker 1: kind of crazy things. So we'll go get a ton

501
00:22:09,160 --> 00:22:12,119
Speaker 1: of test done. But eventually I find out I have

502
00:22:12,240 --> 00:22:15,560
Speaker 1: this rare blood condition called itp idio thrumbo side opinia

503
00:22:15,560 --> 00:22:19,080
Speaker 1: and explained low blood paga idio thrombo side opinia. But

504
00:22:19,119 --> 00:22:22,360
Speaker 1: it's just unexplained low blood platelets, and like, so basically yeah,

505
00:22:22,520 --> 00:22:27,320
Speaker 1: so yeah, but so, but basically, like, I'm very susceptible

506
00:22:27,359 --> 00:22:29,520
Speaker 1: to like gunshots and stab wounds. I'll probably die if

507
00:22:29,560 --> 00:22:31,640
Speaker 1: I get shot or stabbed. A lot of people would.

508
00:22:31,760 --> 00:22:35,639
Speaker 4: Yeah, yeah, I'm very susceptible to gunshots.

509
00:22:35,680 --> 00:22:36,480
Speaker 1: Yeah, a lot of us are.

510
00:22:38,720 --> 00:22:40,720
Speaker 6: We interrupt this episode to bring you a message from

511
00:22:40,720 --> 00:22:43,000
Speaker 6: Better Help. The best way to think about therapy is

512
00:22:43,040 --> 00:22:45,480
Speaker 6: through a bunch of analogies. We get our cars tuned

513
00:22:45,560 --> 00:22:47,920
Speaker 6: up to prevent bigger issues down the road. We get

514
00:22:47,920 --> 00:22:50,000
Speaker 6: annual checkups and go to the gym to maintain a

515
00:22:50,040 --> 00:22:54,000
Speaker 6: physical wellness and prevent injury and disease. We do chores regularly,

516
00:22:54,359 --> 00:22:56,240
Speaker 6: some of us to avoid a giant mess of a

517
00:22:56,320 --> 00:22:59,320
Speaker 6: house and roaches. Therapy doesn't mean something's wrong with you.

518
00:23:00,000 --> 00:23:02,800
Speaker 6: You're investing in yourself to keep your mind healthy, and

519
00:23:02,920 --> 00:23:06,520
Speaker 6: Barstool agrees they're offering better Help services to their employees

520
00:23:06,520 --> 00:23:08,439
Speaker 6: as an added benefit to help take care of their

521
00:23:08,480 --> 00:23:11,920
Speaker 6: overall well being. Better Help is customize online therapy that

522
00:23:12,040 --> 00:23:14,719
Speaker 6: offers video, phone and even live chat sessions with your

523
00:23:14,760 --> 00:23:17,000
Speaker 6: therapists so you don't have to see anyone on camera

524
00:23:17,080 --> 00:23:19,400
Speaker 6: if you don't want to, why invest in everything else

525
00:23:19,640 --> 00:23:22,600
Speaker 6: and not your mind. It's much more affordable than in

526
00:23:22,680 --> 00:23:25,919
Speaker 6: person therapy. You can you could start communicating with your

527
00:23:25,960 --> 00:23:30,480
Speaker 6: therapists in under forty eight hours. This podcast is sponsored

532
00:23:44,320 --> 00:23:47,320
Speaker 1: Yeah yeah, but it's not Eventually. I got to the

533
00:23:47,520 --> 00:23:50,080
Speaker 1: I found out enough about it down the road once

534
00:23:50,280 --> 00:23:52,760
Speaker 1: because I so like I made the mistake of going

535
00:23:52,840 --> 00:23:54,880
Speaker 1: to the Saints for the next workout and I killed

536
00:23:54,920 --> 00:23:58,320
Speaker 1: the next workout like ran high four five like shuttled

537
00:23:58,359 --> 00:24:00,640
Speaker 1: like in the like six seven again like three cone

538
00:24:00,640 --> 00:24:02,800
Speaker 1: shuttle that kind of thing, like good workout. I had

539
00:24:02,840 --> 00:24:05,560
Speaker 1: their pro personnel guy, Terry Fontau, like saying, hey, we're

540
00:24:05,600 --> 00:24:07,639
Speaker 1: gonna sign you. I was like bet, like I'm I

541
00:24:07,680 --> 00:24:09,720
Speaker 1: got a shot in the NFL. And then he goes,

542
00:24:09,760 --> 00:24:11,719
Speaker 1: but we gotta get but you have this blood thing.

543
00:24:11,800 --> 00:24:14,000
Speaker 1: We gotta get that figured out. Like we've never had

544
00:24:14,040 --> 00:24:16,800
Speaker 1: this before. So like he's like, we'll link you with

545
00:24:16,880 --> 00:24:19,400
Speaker 1: our hematologists, our blood doctor, and we'll figure it out.

546
00:24:19,720 --> 00:24:22,119
Speaker 1: Don't hear anything for them for a few weeks, and

547
00:24:22,440 --> 00:24:25,560
Speaker 1: the CFL starts calling their freeency opened and so up there,

548
00:24:25,640 --> 00:24:28,159
Speaker 1: like the money goes fast. So like basically every day

549
00:24:28,160 --> 00:24:29,960
Speaker 1: of freegency up there, I'm losing like ten grand a

550
00:24:30,040 --> 00:24:32,240
Speaker 1: day if I'm going back to the CFL. My agent

551
00:24:32,280 --> 00:24:35,639
Speaker 1: can't get a hold of anybody in New Orleans. So

552
00:24:35,800 --> 00:24:37,520
Speaker 1: and I have this other agent call me asking me

553
00:24:37,560 --> 00:24:39,840
Speaker 1: about my contract in there because he's got another guy

554
00:24:39,880 --> 00:24:41,919
Speaker 1: that's negotiating. We're trying to drive the price up all

555
00:24:41,920 --> 00:24:46,000
Speaker 1: this stuff. Anyways, like this agent was like more speaking

556
00:24:46,040 --> 00:24:47,879
Speaker 1: my language. My other agent wasn't doing shit. So I

557
00:24:47,960 --> 00:24:51,080
Speaker 1: fired the other agent, which I should have done years before.

558
00:24:51,520 --> 00:24:54,399
Speaker 1: But and so he gets me in touch with the Saints,

559
00:24:54,880 --> 00:24:57,280
Speaker 1: gets me phone down there, but they're gonna have me

560
00:24:57,359 --> 00:24:59,720
Speaker 1: sign an injury waiver where if I don't if I

561
00:24:59,760 --> 00:25:04,880
Speaker 1: don't heal on any like any injury concussion, pulled hamstring, sprain, finger, whatever,

562
00:25:04,960 --> 00:25:07,440
Speaker 1: I don't heal on their timeline, they can cut me

563
00:25:07,480 --> 00:25:09,480
Speaker 1: without pay, no injury settlements and that kind of stuff,

564
00:25:09,480 --> 00:25:11,440
Speaker 1: and which was trash. And so that agent was like no,

565
00:25:12,359 --> 00:25:14,560
Speaker 1: and we're still talking to them. And then I switched

566
00:25:14,600 --> 00:25:16,760
Speaker 1: agents and that agent got me three workouts in twenty

567
00:25:16,800 --> 00:25:18,679
Speaker 1: four hours. So that's the first time was like, oh,

568
00:25:18,760 --> 00:25:21,200
Speaker 1: agents do kind of matter. Yeah, they do matter, like

569
00:25:21,200 --> 00:25:23,959
Speaker 1: their connections matter. And then a couple of days later,

570
00:25:24,000 --> 00:25:26,000
Speaker 1: I worked out for the Vikings. Didn't tell them about

571
00:25:26,040 --> 00:25:28,160
Speaker 1: my blood condition. They never even noticed in my blood

572
00:25:28,160 --> 00:25:31,000
Speaker 1: work and that kind of thing. Had a good off

573
00:25:31,080 --> 00:25:33,600
Speaker 1: season with them. Love Minneapolis, really cool locker room up there.

574
00:25:34,600 --> 00:25:39,480
Speaker 1: They put me on Pea Squad. I'm twenty I know

575
00:25:39,960 --> 00:25:42,400
Speaker 1: it's a shit show of the story, but I'm twenty six.

576
00:25:43,440 --> 00:25:46,080
Speaker 2: All this happens from the moment you get yet on

577
00:25:46,119 --> 00:25:48,679
Speaker 2: your birthday, yeah, twenty three to twenty five, Yeah, yeah Jesus.

578
00:25:48,840 --> 00:25:51,880
Speaker 2: So anyway, so I get to Minnesota, and that's why

579
00:25:51,880 --> 00:25:53,600
Speaker 2: I link up my guy Harvey, who we have the

580
00:25:53,640 --> 00:25:56,080
Speaker 2: mind Strong project with now the Breathing Company.

581
00:25:56,160 --> 00:26:00,119
Speaker 1: But so I'm there link with him. But uh, they

582
00:26:00,160 --> 00:26:02,520
Speaker 1: put me on Pea squad. I was on peace squad

583
00:26:02,560 --> 00:26:05,000
Speaker 1: there for three weeks and like and then on like

584
00:26:05,080 --> 00:26:07,840
Speaker 1: a Tuesday, I'm at like a charity event for the Vikings,

585
00:26:07,880 --> 00:26:09,239
Speaker 1: and I get a call and my agent said, hey,

586
00:26:09,280 --> 00:26:12,520
Speaker 1: the Texans want to sign you. Go to the airport

587
00:26:12,800 --> 00:26:14,159
Speaker 1: and like, I have a flight in three and a

588
00:26:14,200 --> 00:26:16,280
Speaker 1: half hours, So like, I hustle home, leave my car there,

589
00:26:16,280 --> 00:26:18,000
Speaker 1: all that kind of stuff and hang on.

590
00:26:18,280 --> 00:26:21,920
Speaker 4: So you made the you you were in Vikings training camp.

591
00:26:22,200 --> 00:26:24,640
Speaker 1: No, I was like, I was in Vikings training camp,

592
00:26:24,760 --> 00:26:26,639
Speaker 1: and they put me on practice squad when the right So.

593
00:26:26,680 --> 00:26:28,879
Speaker 2: When the season is done, they cut you and put

594
00:26:28,920 --> 00:26:30,440
Speaker 2: you on practic squad. You're there for the first three

595
00:26:30,480 --> 00:26:34,280
Speaker 2: weeks yep. Which season is this twenty fifteen twenty fifteen season?

596
00:26:34,320 --> 00:26:37,919
Speaker 2: And then in three weeks your agent calls Texans want

597
00:26:37,960 --> 00:26:39,240
Speaker 2: you to sign active.

598
00:26:39,160 --> 00:26:42,320
Speaker 1: Yep with them? Yep. All right, and so and the

599
00:26:42,560 --> 00:26:45,119
Speaker 1: kind of the little dance I went through here now

600
00:26:45,280 --> 00:26:48,240
Speaker 1: is if somebody signed you off practice squad, they have

601
00:26:48,359 --> 00:26:50,159
Speaker 1: to keep you active for three games to give you

602
00:26:50,200 --> 00:26:53,080
Speaker 1: an accredited season yep. And so however much money that

603
00:26:53,160 --> 00:26:56,160
Speaker 1: equates to. But the Vikings want me to stay there too,

604
00:26:56,280 --> 00:26:59,639
Speaker 1: so they offered me full salary guaranteed to stay there

605
00:26:59,640 --> 00:27:01,200
Speaker 1: for the whole you're on practice squad, and they said

606
00:27:01,200 --> 00:27:02,639
Speaker 1: they'd get me up as soon as they could to

607
00:27:02,720 --> 00:27:05,720
Speaker 1: active roster. So I'm sitting at the airport trying to

608
00:27:05,720 --> 00:27:07,920
Speaker 1: make the decision whether to stay for half a mil

609
00:27:08,359 --> 00:27:11,000
Speaker 1: or go and play three games for whatever twenty K

610
00:27:11,200 --> 00:27:13,680
Speaker 1: game or whatever it equates to. And so I'm sitting

611
00:27:13,720 --> 00:27:15,680
Speaker 1: there like trying to make decision. I have equity build

612
00:27:15,720 --> 00:27:18,120
Speaker 1: up there, the coaches know me whatever. The same story

613
00:27:18,160 --> 00:27:18,840
Speaker 1: with all those guys.

614
00:27:18,960 --> 00:27:21,600
Speaker 2: Yeah, for everybody listening to, like when you're on peace

615
00:27:21,600 --> 00:27:23,600
Speaker 2: squad and you're like a You're a solid player that

616
00:27:23,640 --> 00:27:26,879
Speaker 2: they know can potentially develop or get activated for them,

617
00:27:26,920 --> 00:27:28,440
Speaker 2: but they know they can hide you on practice squad

618
00:27:28,480 --> 00:27:31,399
Speaker 2: until somebody finds you. That's essentially what happened with Brian

619
00:27:31,560 --> 00:27:34,159
Speaker 2: is the Texas society, you know, we want this kid now.

620
00:27:34,240 --> 00:27:37,280
Speaker 2: The Vikings have to Now Brian has leverage to leave.

621
00:27:37,400 --> 00:27:41,960
Speaker 2: So what they would do is offer that salary style

622
00:27:42,040 --> 00:27:43,800
Speaker 2: pay so you can play like you're on the active

623
00:27:43,880 --> 00:27:46,120
Speaker 2: roster but stay on practice squad, and then they'll throw

624
00:27:46,160 --> 00:27:47,920
Speaker 2: everything in the toolshit at you. Be like, you know

625
00:27:48,359 --> 00:27:52,000
Speaker 2: you have a good reputation here, you have good relationships here,

626
00:27:52,560 --> 00:27:54,240
Speaker 2: We'll get you up as soon as we can. Like

627
00:27:54,359 --> 00:27:57,679
Speaker 2: it's all negotiating, it's all like yeah, mind games.

628
00:27:57,560 --> 00:28:01,480
Speaker 1: Yeah it's but it's empty promise correct. Yes. And so

629
00:28:01,560 --> 00:28:03,720
Speaker 1: I got to the point where one of my buddies

630
00:28:03,840 --> 00:28:05,560
Speaker 1: hit me with a line that was just a switch

631
00:28:05,680 --> 00:28:07,680
Speaker 1: for me. I called Dan Percy, is a quarterback in

632
00:28:07,760 --> 00:28:10,520
Speaker 1: Northwestern with me, and he goes, Dude, you spent three

633
00:28:10,640 --> 00:28:13,119
Speaker 1: years in three different leagues to play in the NFL,

634
00:28:13,240 --> 00:28:15,600
Speaker 1: not practice in the NFL. I was like, yeah, let's

635
00:28:15,640 --> 00:28:17,680
Speaker 1: try good. I'm on the plane and so I and

636
00:28:17,760 --> 00:28:19,280
Speaker 1: I've been talking to my mom and my brother and

637
00:28:19,320 --> 00:28:21,080
Speaker 1: my buddies and that kind of thing during this whole deal.

638
00:28:21,400 --> 00:28:23,760
Speaker 1: And I get on the plane, my uh my parents

639
00:28:23,840 --> 00:28:25,399
Speaker 1: call me and they're like, you know what, me and

640
00:28:25,440 --> 00:28:27,320
Speaker 1: your dad talked. We think you should stay in Minnesota.

641
00:28:27,320 --> 00:28:29,159
Speaker 1: I was like, I was like, Dad, I'm on the plane.

642
00:28:29,480 --> 00:28:31,520
Speaker 1: They're like, okay, Like we're more conservative you than that

643
00:28:31,680 --> 00:28:34,600
Speaker 1: conservative conservative than you anyways, Like good luck. So I

644
00:28:34,680 --> 00:28:39,200
Speaker 1: go down there, start playing Week four down there and

645
00:28:39,320 --> 00:28:41,320
Speaker 1: put like put together like a great season I was.

646
00:28:41,440 --> 00:28:43,560
Speaker 1: I led the NFL and special teams tackles with twelve

647
00:28:43,600 --> 00:28:46,360
Speaker 1: games played, so like I like got their kind of

648
00:28:46,400 --> 00:28:49,280
Speaker 1: like there you get their attention. Yeah, kid, got their attention.

649
00:28:49,440 --> 00:28:52,240
Speaker 1: Got leverage, and like the leverages everything in the NFL,

650
00:28:52,360 --> 00:28:54,120
Speaker 1: Like I mean, how many times did you have leverage

651
00:28:54,120 --> 00:28:55,680
Speaker 1: on a team to know like, yeah, they're gonna they're

652
00:28:55,720 --> 00:28:57,480
Speaker 1: gonna sign me back, or know that you like you're

653
00:28:57,520 --> 00:29:00,480
Speaker 1: adding enough value that they're going to keep you right, Like.

654
00:29:00,520 --> 00:29:03,120
Speaker 2: The injury waiver stuff was the same situation I've explained

655
00:29:03,160 --> 00:29:05,720
Speaker 2: before on the podcast. But when I went and tried

656
00:29:05,760 --> 00:29:08,719
Speaker 2: out for Oakland and they wanted to sign me, they

657
00:29:08,800 --> 00:29:10,720
Speaker 2: had an injury waiver sitting in front of me being

658
00:29:10,760 --> 00:29:13,840
Speaker 2: like if anything on my like my right leg, anything

659
00:29:13,880 --> 00:29:16,280
Speaker 2: on my right leg gets damaged, they can cut me,

660
00:29:16,760 --> 00:29:18,840
Speaker 2: wash their hands, not have to rehab me, not have

661
00:29:18,920 --> 00:29:21,200
Speaker 2: to pay for any surgery. Like if I tore my ACL,

662
00:29:21,240 --> 00:29:22,720
Speaker 2: they don't have to pay for it. They can just

663
00:29:22,760 --> 00:29:24,320
Speaker 2: cut me and do away with it. And I was

664
00:29:24,360 --> 00:29:26,760
Speaker 2: able to be like, you know, I don't want to

665
00:29:26,800 --> 00:29:28,520
Speaker 2: do that, Like I'm gonna leave. Do you mind getting

666
00:29:28,520 --> 00:29:30,520
Speaker 2: me a flight back to Nashville, Like yeah, we can

667
00:29:30,560 --> 00:29:32,080
Speaker 2: get that set up. Pre I'm sorry it didn't work out.

668
00:29:32,080 --> 00:29:35,200
Speaker 2: Twenty minutes later, they walk back in like, hey, May

669
00:29:35,280 --> 00:29:35,720
Speaker 2: outcomes in.

670
00:29:35,800 --> 00:29:35,920
Speaker 1: Hey.

671
00:29:36,000 --> 00:29:37,800
Speaker 2: He's like, hey, if we do away with this injury waiver,

672
00:29:37,880 --> 00:29:39,880
Speaker 2: would you sign. I'm like yeah, He's like, let's make

673
00:29:39,920 --> 00:29:42,920
Speaker 2: it happen. So it's just crazy how that kind of

674
00:29:42,920 --> 00:29:44,320
Speaker 2: stuff works. Like if you have a little bit of

675
00:29:44,400 --> 00:29:46,880
Speaker 2: leverage or a little bit of anything, it's you know,

676
00:29:47,680 --> 00:29:48,320
Speaker 2: it's everything.

677
00:29:48,440 --> 00:29:51,560
Speaker 1: Yeah, like life is a negotiation too, so oh guaranteed.

678
00:29:51,760 --> 00:29:55,480
Speaker 1: But even that, Like I mean, yeah, they're protecting themselves

679
00:29:55,520 --> 00:29:57,640
Speaker 1: and they're making their business decisions and that kind of thing.

680
00:29:57,680 --> 00:29:59,240
Speaker 1: But at the same time, like they.

681
00:29:59,160 --> 00:30:02,360
Speaker 2: Were trying to tell me, Will is on, Will's taking

682
00:30:02,440 --> 00:30:05,760
Speaker 2: indocent and an anti inflammatory and you know that that

683
00:30:05,960 --> 00:30:08,760
Speaker 2: raises eyebrows for us. And I had just sprained my

684
00:30:08,800 --> 00:30:11,200
Speaker 2: ankle and got an injury settlement with the Saints during preseason.

685
00:30:11,240 --> 00:30:13,520
Speaker 2: So I'm like, yeah, I'm on it because I sprained

686
00:30:13,560 --> 00:30:16,880
Speaker 2: my ankle and aside from that, everyone in the fucking

687
00:30:16,920 --> 00:30:18,800
Speaker 2: locker room is on anti inflammators, and you guys are

688
00:30:18,840 --> 00:30:20,680
Speaker 2: gonna give it to me anyway if I say I

689
00:30:20,720 --> 00:30:22,120
Speaker 2: don't have it, because my agent call is like, why

690
00:30:22,120 --> 00:30:24,160
Speaker 2: would you tell him that, I'm like, because it doesn't

691
00:30:24,200 --> 00:30:24,600
Speaker 2: matter to me.

692
00:30:24,640 --> 00:30:26,320
Speaker 1: Why wouldn't I just let them know?

693
00:30:26,520 --> 00:30:29,320
Speaker 2: Hey, Like you know, I'm I'm doctoring my ankle a

694
00:30:29,400 --> 00:30:31,320
Speaker 2: little bit and I'm still on stuff, and he's like,

695
00:30:31,360 --> 00:30:32,800
Speaker 2: you know, you can hurt yourself. That's why they want

696
00:30:32,800 --> 00:30:34,360
Speaker 2: to put the injury settlement. It's like, well, all right,

697
00:30:34,440 --> 00:30:36,360
Speaker 2: it doesn't like it doesn't matter to me.

698
00:30:36,560 --> 00:30:38,600
Speaker 1: Yeah, so now that you're fighting fire and you want

699
00:30:38,600 --> 00:30:40,520
Speaker 1: me to lie to them, So like it's.

700
00:30:40,200 --> 00:30:42,720
Speaker 4: Just when we're all doing it anyway, like everyone down

701
00:30:42,760 --> 00:30:43,160
Speaker 4: in the lock.

702
00:30:43,120 --> 00:30:46,440
Speaker 1: Dy is time planmatory, like the I mean, like they're

703
00:30:46,480 --> 00:30:48,200
Speaker 1: starting to tighten up the tourtle and all that kind

704
00:30:48,200 --> 00:30:51,000
Speaker 1: of stuff. But like like an anti inflammatory is are

705
00:30:51,040 --> 00:30:53,720
Speaker 1: a problem and then that doesn't.

706
00:30:53,440 --> 00:30:56,000
Speaker 2: Mean I'll ever stop doing them because they get me

707
00:30:56,040 --> 00:30:58,440
Speaker 2: through the season, like they get me through playing football.

708
00:30:58,600 --> 00:31:01,680
Speaker 1: Yeah for sure. But but so you started like kind

709
00:31:01,720 --> 00:31:03,760
Speaker 1: of balancing that with like the peptides and stuff too,

710
00:31:03,800 --> 00:31:04,480
Speaker 1: didn't you. Yeah.

711
00:31:04,560 --> 00:31:07,160
Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, like the BPC one seven because that helps

712
00:31:07,200 --> 00:31:10,400
Speaker 2: with like leaky gut I've talked about before it actually

713
00:31:10,480 --> 00:31:13,560
Speaker 2: introduced it talking on the EMRR podcast, I felt a

714
00:31:13,600 --> 00:31:15,480
Speaker 2: little queasy talking about it because the way he was

715
00:31:15,520 --> 00:31:17,720
Speaker 2: explaining how he learned about it, seeing the needles and

716
00:31:17,720 --> 00:31:20,600
Speaker 2: everything else. And I was kind of like, you know, dabbling,

717
00:31:20,960 --> 00:31:22,440
Speaker 2: educating a little bit on it because you just don't

718
00:31:22,440 --> 00:31:22,920
Speaker 2: want people to.

719
00:31:22,920 --> 00:31:24,440
Speaker 1: Think like you're doing something, yeah for sure.

720
00:31:24,720 --> 00:31:27,000
Speaker 2: But yeah, like having the peptides with it as well

721
00:31:27,160 --> 00:31:29,000
Speaker 2: to help with the leaky gut and anything that those

722
00:31:29,040 --> 00:31:32,600
Speaker 2: anti inflammatories can cause, like in your gut lining, because

723
00:31:32,640 --> 00:31:35,280
Speaker 2: that's essentially what happens is it tears up your insides right,

724
00:31:36,120 --> 00:31:38,320
Speaker 2: like the bleeding that goes on inside. Like it sounds

725
00:31:38,360 --> 00:31:40,040
Speaker 2: way worse than I feel like it actually, you know,

726
00:31:40,680 --> 00:31:42,480
Speaker 2: I don't know. I don't want to make people think

727
00:31:42,480 --> 00:31:45,400
Speaker 2: we're dying the inside out, but you know, it destroys

728
00:31:45,400 --> 00:31:47,920
Speaker 2: your gut a little bit, Yeah for sure. Just yeah,

729
00:31:48,120 --> 00:31:51,120
Speaker 2: I'm full, you know, I'll be on anti inflammatories, Like

730
00:31:51,120 --> 00:31:53,000
Speaker 2: anytime you're about to play, like toward ALL, Like yeah,

731
00:31:53,000 --> 00:31:55,120
Speaker 2: you're trying to get toward ALL. Like you know a

732
00:31:55,200 --> 00:31:57,800
Speaker 2: guys who you know, I knew, dudees wh would take

733
00:31:57,800 --> 00:31:59,520
Speaker 2: like two toward ALL before a game started, and then

734
00:31:59,560 --> 00:32:00,520
Speaker 2: another one at halftime.

735
00:32:00,640 --> 00:32:03,640
Speaker 1: For sure. I mean they hand them to you at halftime. Yeah, Yeah,

736
00:32:04,080 --> 00:32:05,080
Speaker 1: that stuff will never stop.

737
00:32:05,160 --> 00:32:07,520
Speaker 2: They'll they'll make it look better as they should like,

738
00:32:08,040 --> 00:32:09,760
Speaker 2: but at the end of the day, like you know,

739
00:32:09,800 --> 00:32:12,600
Speaker 2: if you're if you're if you're playing, and you're trying

740
00:32:12,680 --> 00:32:15,040
Speaker 2: to continue to play and make the team and and

741
00:32:15,160 --> 00:32:16,800
Speaker 2: put out good tape and good film, like.

742
00:32:17,440 --> 00:32:20,640
Speaker 1: Yeah, throw it in my fucking system. Deal, well, well

743
00:32:20,760 --> 00:32:24,520
Speaker 1: scrape me off the field, bro, yeah, which is which

744
00:32:24,600 --> 00:32:26,680
Speaker 1: is the vibe. But like so like, but what caught

745
00:32:26,760 --> 00:32:28,280
Speaker 1: up to me with that blood condition too, is they

746
00:32:28,280 --> 00:32:31,440
Speaker 1: wouldn't give me any anti inflammatories because like, because I

747
00:32:31,480 --> 00:32:34,720
Speaker 1: already have thin blood, they don't want that. Yeah yeah, yeah,

748
00:32:34,760 --> 00:32:36,200
Speaker 1: so I didn't get that luxury.

749
00:32:36,400 --> 00:32:38,479
Speaker 2: So like I was just so you're out there natural

750
00:32:39,000 --> 00:32:42,880
Speaker 2: on that you're white, already behind the eight ball, just

751
00:32:43,000 --> 00:32:45,560
Speaker 2: out there like just being cut everywhere in the Canadian League,

752
00:32:45,600 --> 00:32:48,360
Speaker 2: the arena team, fucking finally getting your shot, and you

753
00:32:48,400 --> 00:32:49,800
Speaker 2: can't even get on the you can't even get on

754
00:32:49,840 --> 00:32:50,840
Speaker 2: the stuff that makes you feel good.

00:32:50,880 --> 00:32:52,640
Speaker 1: Yeah No, they couldn't even do like p RP on

756
00:32:52,800 --> 00:32:54,480
Speaker 1: me and stuff like that. So I was always doing

757
00:32:54,520 --> 00:32:56,400
Speaker 1: stem cells whenever I needed it and that kind of

758
00:32:56,440 --> 00:32:57,760
Speaker 1: things for those injuries.

759
00:32:58,160 --> 00:32:58,440
Speaker 5: Damn.

760
00:32:58,640 --> 00:32:58,840
Speaker 1: Yeah.

761
00:32:59,200 --> 00:33:01,520
Speaker 7: So are you always like checking your blood work like

762
00:33:01,640 --> 00:33:03,880
Speaker 7: doing yeah, decent amount like I mean, I do it

763
00:33:04,000 --> 00:33:07,600
Speaker 7: kind of quarterly anyway, for my yeah, for my hormone

764
00:33:07,680 --> 00:33:10,239
Speaker 7: levels and like my vitamin deficiencies to like just make

765
00:33:10,280 --> 00:33:11,719
Speaker 7: sure I'm balanced and that kind of thing.

766
00:33:11,880 --> 00:33:13,760
Speaker 1: But like yeah, they always do a CBC on me,

767
00:33:13,800 --> 00:33:16,640
Speaker 1: which just like checks like red white and your platelets

768
00:33:16,680 --> 00:33:18,800

Speaker 1: was kind of like fade or whatever. But the once

771
00:33:24,800 --> 00:33:26,840
Speaker 1: that the Texans found out my second year, like obviously

772
00:33:26,840 --> 00:33:29,239
Speaker 1: I didn't tell them about it once they signed me, right,

773
00:33:29,400 --> 00:33:30,920
Speaker 1: but in the second year, right.

774
00:33:30,880 --> 00:33:33,560
Speaker 2: Yeah, obviously, but going into the second year is when

775
00:33:33,600 --> 00:33:35,560
Speaker 2: you've led the NFL and special teams tackles.

776
00:33:35,600 --> 00:33:37,600
Speaker 1: Now you're going into the second with the Texans. Yeah,

777
00:33:37,800 --> 00:33:40,520
Speaker 1: and like trying to establish myself as like a niche player,

778
00:33:40,520 --> 00:33:42,160
Speaker 1: and like so I had like rapes down there. That's

779
00:33:42,240 --> 00:33:44,719
Speaker 1: like saying, we need like special teams, guys, we need

780
00:33:44,800 --> 00:33:47,760
Speaker 1: somebody to take some ownership of special teams street rats yeah,

781
00:33:48,160 --> 00:33:52,480
Speaker 1: gritty yeah, yeah, And so like that that was my

782
00:33:52,640 --> 00:33:55,880
Speaker 1: niche Like that's what like I did that like wholeheartedly,

783
00:33:56,000 --> 00:33:57,880
Speaker 1: like whatever, whatever you do, be good at it. Like

784
00:33:57,960 --> 00:33:59,920
Speaker 1: that was my like that was my thing down there initially.

785
00:34:00,040 --> 00:34:02,320
Speaker 1: But like so they find the blood the blood condition,

786
00:34:02,640 --> 00:34:05,760
Speaker 1: and but like like literally like the world renowned specialists

787
00:34:05,760 --> 00:34:08,520
Speaker 1: and and my blood condition is based in that massive

788
00:34:08,560 --> 00:34:11,400
Speaker 1: medical compound in Houston. So I go over there and

789
00:34:11,520 --> 00:34:14,640
Speaker 1: he like he's doing all these like he's doing uh

790
00:34:15,280 --> 00:34:18,560
Speaker 1: like organ imaging and things like that, and but then

791
00:34:18,600 --> 00:34:20,520
Speaker 1: he like breaks down my blood to like a whole

792
00:34:20,560 --> 00:34:22,440
Speaker 1: other level than all these other blood tests were doing.

793
00:34:22,520 --> 00:34:25,560
Speaker 1: He goes, actually, like you have blood playlists are just

794
00:34:25,680 --> 00:34:28,840
Speaker 1: crazy small, like your your spleen beats him up, but

795
00:34:28,920 --> 00:34:30,960
Speaker 1: you still have blood playlists. And he goes, I used

796
00:34:30,960 --> 00:34:33,000
Speaker 1: to tell people with I t P that you like

797
00:34:33,120 --> 00:34:35,600
Speaker 1: you can't play football or ride motorcycles and that kind

798
00:34:35,600 --> 00:34:37,000
Speaker 1: of thing, but now it's gotta tell him you can

799
00:34:37,080 --> 00:34:42,799
Speaker 1: only not ride motorcycles because now we got at high level. Yeah,

800
00:34:42,920 --> 00:34:45,080
Speaker 1: so so that was cool. But anyways, but yeah, so

801
00:34:45,640 --> 00:34:47,960
Speaker 1: did four years down in in Houston and that and

802
00:34:48,040 --> 00:34:49,600
Speaker 1: that was the wrap. And I've been I've been trying

803
00:34:49,640 --> 00:34:54,400
Speaker 1: to knock on doors and adapt, oh by any means necessary,

804
00:34:55,280 --> 00:34:58,399
Speaker 1: your boys taking up long snapping, I'm doing anything and else. Yeah, yeah,

805
00:34:58,400 --> 00:35:00,160
Speaker 1: and we'll we'll get you a video to block. It's

806
00:35:00,160 --> 00:35:02,080
Speaker 1: a show. To show the show a little bit. Now,

807
00:35:02,160 --> 00:35:04,120
Speaker 1: come on, now you got to get the baby. I'll

808
00:35:04,160 --> 00:35:04,839
Speaker 1: take god, I can get.

809
00:35:05,360 --> 00:35:07,120
Speaker 2: So you you were you were with Houston before we

810
00:35:07,160 --> 00:35:09,800
Speaker 2: get there. You were with Houston for four years. Yep, okay,

811
00:35:09,920 --> 00:35:13,160
Speaker 2: that's awesome. Yeah what year did you become the captain?

812
00:35:13,760 --> 00:35:15,919
Speaker 1: Uh? Not till my last year. Technically we don't really

813
00:35:16,000 --> 00:35:18,799
Speaker 1: have like consistent captains the first couple of years.

814
00:35:19,000 --> 00:35:21,640
Speaker 2: Would you say that's one of your better Like like

815
00:35:21,800 --> 00:35:25,440
Speaker 2: achievements are, oh, no doubt your favorite awards accomplished?

816
00:35:25,520 --> 00:35:28,880
Speaker 1: Oh for sure. Yeah, Like just uh being a captain

817
00:35:28,920 --> 00:35:32,239
Speaker 1: in general, Like I think everybody takes leadership differently too,

818
00:35:32,320 --> 00:35:33,640
Speaker 1: Like you don't like you can be a leader, you

819
00:35:33,680 --> 00:35:34,920
Speaker 1: don't have to be a captain and that kind of

820
00:35:34,960 --> 00:35:36,920
Speaker 1: thing too. But no, like I mean just to go

821
00:35:37,239 --> 00:35:38,920
Speaker 1: like I want there's I wasn't supposed to be an

822
00:35:38,960 --> 00:35:40,800
Speaker 1: NFL anyways, Like I wasn't supposed to get out of

823
00:35:40,800 --> 00:35:43,040
Speaker 1: the arena the league, Like I want like three or

824
00:35:43,080 --> 00:35:45,040
Speaker 1: four people get out of the CFL every year like

825
00:35:45,120 --> 00:35:47,440
Speaker 1: that kind of stuff. I just beat the odds everywhere,

826
00:35:47,440 --> 00:35:49,759
Speaker 1: and like that's where like the chasing Edges mindset comes in.

827
00:35:49,960 --> 00:35:51,840
Speaker 1: Like once I knew I could play, every time I

828
00:35:51,880 --> 00:35:54,759
Speaker 1: got cut, I found three for four new things to

829
00:35:54,840 --> 00:35:57,120
Speaker 1: take on and learn and add to the add to

830
00:35:57,239 --> 00:35:59,960
Speaker 1: the my ability or like my tool belt or whatever. Event.

831
00:36:00,000 --> 00:36:02,520
Speaker 1: Actually they stacked up and got got me the opportunity,

832
00:36:02,600 --> 00:36:05,520
Speaker 1: So I think I enjoyed it like like I I

833
00:36:05,640 --> 00:36:07,520
Speaker 1: was grateful for the opportunity a little more than other

834
00:36:07,560 --> 00:36:11,319
Speaker 1: guys because I went through went the scenic route with it. Yeah. Yeah,

835
00:36:13,120 --> 00:36:14,040
Speaker 1: after your four years?

00:36:14,080 --> 00:36:14,480

Speaker 1: Yeah. Yeah, so it's been it's been. It's been. It's

843
00:36:26,360 --> 00:36:26,839
Speaker 1: been a minute.

844
00:36:26,880 --> 00:36:28,800
Speaker 2: So I did so sh it flies because I remember

845
00:36:28,840 --> 00:36:30,919
Speaker 2: I was hanging in Vandy when you came through Vandy

846
00:36:30,920 --> 00:36:32,280
Speaker 2: and we were both fucking on the couch.

847
00:36:32,480 --> 00:36:34,919
Speaker 1: Yeah, but the boys are still eating the boys training.

848
00:36:35,320 --> 00:36:37,759
Speaker 2: Yeah, because Brian, it came to did you come to

849
00:36:37,840 --> 00:36:39,560
Speaker 2: the tailgate one of those bus and tailgates?

850
00:36:40,040 --> 00:36:41,719
Speaker 1: Yeah, but you guys are wrapping up.

851
00:36:41,719 --> 00:36:44,200
Speaker 2: I got we had just finished because he was we

852
00:36:44,280 --> 00:36:46,040
Speaker 2: were hanging out. We did like, you know, some fat

853
00:36:46,160 --> 00:36:48,520
Speaker 2: arm like like an armwork out with little dabber.

854
00:36:48,680 --> 00:36:48,919
Speaker 1: Yeah.

855
00:36:50,600 --> 00:36:53,440
Speaker 2: But man, it's been a couple of years, but you

856
00:36:53,560 --> 00:36:57,320
Speaker 2: are now trying to get back in through long snapping.

857
00:36:58,000 --> 00:36:59,439
Speaker 2: Explain the long snapping route.

858
00:36:59,520 --> 00:37:02,040
Speaker 1: Well, so I always been like a backup long snapper.

859
00:37:02,160 --> 00:37:04,040
Speaker 1: So like my high school d C he had like

860
00:37:04,080 --> 00:37:06,080
Speaker 1: a couple of coffee with some NFL teams as a snapper,

861
00:37:06,200 --> 00:37:07,719
Speaker 1: so he taught all of us in high school how

862
00:37:07,760 --> 00:37:11,839
Speaker 1: to snap. So I was the backup at Northwestern. Oh yeah,

863
00:37:12,000 --> 00:37:16,000
Speaker 1: but come on, I love it, but we need to

864
00:37:16,040 --> 00:37:20,840
Speaker 1: get updated tapes. But uh, that's not the that's not

865
00:37:20,920 --> 00:37:23,000
Speaker 1: the table on everybody to check. But anyway, we'll have

866
00:37:23,080 --> 00:37:27,600
Speaker 1: the right straight. But so, actually, up in the CFL,

867
00:37:28,000 --> 00:37:31,320
Speaker 1: uh our long snapper had an a c joint, So

868
00:37:31,400 --> 00:37:34,680
Speaker 1: I snapped for four games in the CFL, and then

869
00:37:35,080 --> 00:37:38,080
Speaker 1: in Houston, uh John Weeks had a hamstring one of

870
00:37:38,120 --> 00:37:40,120
Speaker 1: the preseason games, so I snapped for a preseason game.

871
00:37:40,360 --> 00:37:41,920
Speaker 1: So I've always kind of been the emergency guy. Has

872
00:37:41,960 --> 00:37:44,439
Speaker 1: been like a back Yeah, I mean like it adds

873
00:37:44,560 --> 00:37:47,799
Speaker 1: value like oh the kids, uh hustle linebacker. And then

874
00:37:47,840 --> 00:37:50,600
Speaker 1: he also can be our emergency snapper. Maybe that's like

875
00:37:50,719 --> 00:37:53,040
Speaker 1: the breaking point to keep me on a roster. So

876
00:37:53,360 --> 00:37:55,200
Speaker 1: I mean, you know, yeah, for sure.

877
00:37:55,239 --> 00:37:57,160
Speaker 2: People always make those little side comments say hey, you

878
00:37:57,280 --> 00:37:58,759
Speaker 2: really want to play in the league and last in

879
00:37:58,760 --> 00:37:59,960
Speaker 2: the league, like pick up long snap.

880
00:38:00,239 --> 00:38:01,800
Speaker 4: Oh for sure, you got these PUDs that will be

881
00:38:01,840 --> 00:38:02,440
Speaker 4: long snappers.

882
00:38:02,440 --> 00:38:04,960
Speaker 2: You know, no disrespect to the long snappers, but you'd

883
00:38:05,000 --> 00:38:07,080
Speaker 2: be having guys run down the field after snapping the

884
00:38:07,120 --> 00:38:08,520
Speaker 2: ball to go on punt. It's just like, all right,

885
00:38:08,920 --> 00:38:10,480
Speaker 2: you get the punter and the long snapper. They don't

886
00:38:10,480 --> 00:38:12,480
Speaker 2: necessarily count. There's nine guys a block on the field.

887
00:38:12,800 --> 00:38:15,040
Speaker 1: Yeah. And then so like that's where like Luke Rhoades

888
00:38:15,040 --> 00:38:19,399
Speaker 1: with Indy is a linebacker, uh, converted long snapper or whatever,

889
00:38:19,520 --> 00:38:20,840
Speaker 1: and he like he's been eating I think he was

890
00:38:20,840 --> 00:38:23,920
Speaker 1: All Pro last year. And so like the special teams

891
00:38:23,960 --> 00:38:26,840
Speaker 1: coach with the Texans was part of that transition. So

892
00:38:26,960 --> 00:38:28,840
Speaker 1: like that's one of the contacts. And then I know

893
00:38:28,880 --> 00:38:31,240
Speaker 1: a lot of special teams coaches around that I'm sending

894
00:38:31,320 --> 00:38:33,279
Speaker 1: tape to and that kind of thing. Playing So you're

895
00:38:33,360 --> 00:38:35,960
Speaker 1: back to the to the grind, to the emails.

896
00:38:37,000 --> 00:38:39,719
Speaker 2: You're back to the emails. Fucking a I'm a dog. Yeah,

897
00:38:40,120 --> 00:38:41,080
Speaker 2: check the snap tape.

898
00:38:41,239 --> 00:38:44,640
Speaker 1: Check the tape. Yeah. So I'll match my physical fitness

899
00:38:44,640 --> 00:38:46,360
Speaker 1: against any long snapper in the league any day of

900
00:38:46,400 --> 00:38:47,919
Speaker 1: the week. So yeah, I love that. Yeah.

901
00:38:48,120 --> 00:38:51,640
Speaker 2: And if you do, like, I don't see why you

902
00:38:51,800 --> 00:38:55,359
Speaker 2: potentially wouldn't get a shot because you can actually cover

903
00:38:55,719 --> 00:38:56,080
Speaker 2: for sure.

904
00:38:56,120 --> 00:38:58,600
Speaker 1: But it's it is a crazy skill, like the mastery

905
00:38:58,760 --> 00:39:00,600
Speaker 1: of like hitting the hip every time online.

906
00:39:00,680 --> 00:39:04,200
Speaker 2: Right, I'm not saying anybody can snap into account watching

907
00:39:04,280 --> 00:39:07,000
Speaker 2: your your tape, Like I mean, if you continue to

908
00:39:07,040 --> 00:39:08,280
Speaker 2: work on this, like why wouldn't.

909
00:39:08,520 --> 00:39:11,800
Speaker 1: Yeah, that's what That's what I'm hoping. That's what the

910
00:39:11,840 --> 00:39:14,000
Speaker 1: boys having to Uh dude, you know, do you know

911
00:39:14,080 --> 00:39:16,799
Speaker 1: I kicked off in the game too? No way. Yeah,

912
00:39:16,920 --> 00:39:19,840
Speaker 1: So this is a crazy this is a this is

913
00:39:19,880 --> 00:39:24,520
Speaker 1: a crazy freaking story too. So we're who were going

914
00:39:24,640 --> 00:39:28,000
Speaker 1: going against the Vikings. This was uh Iso Larry Izzo

915
00:39:28,160 --> 00:39:29,920
Speaker 1: was my special teams coach. It was his first year

916
00:39:30,480 --> 00:39:33,719
Speaker 1: and we're playing the Vikings too. Liked Cordero Patterson, who's

917
00:39:33,719 --> 00:39:37,200

Speaker 1: where now it comes to game day I'm super pumped,

941
00:40:35,880 --> 00:40:37,279
Speaker 1: and I was like, hey, coach, should I go out

942
00:40:37,280 --> 00:40:38,680
Speaker 1: and warm up? Like that kind of thing is now

943
00:40:38,760 --> 00:40:40,480

947
00:40:47,520 --> 00:40:49,920
Speaker 1: a player's coach once you like, once you cover and

948
00:40:50,040 --> 00:40:52,080
Speaker 1: playing fast. He's a stud coach. I don't want to

949
00:40:52,160 --> 00:40:54,719
Speaker 1: dog on him at all. But he, uh, he goes here,

950
00:40:54,800 --> 00:40:56,239
Speaker 1: I got it. He goes, well, we'll set up a

951
00:40:56,280 --> 00:40:58,600
Speaker 1: ball as you guys run out to uh run out

952
00:40:58,640 --> 00:41:00,600
Speaker 1: for the start of the game. You're gonna warm up kick,

953
00:41:00,680 --> 00:41:03,040
Speaker 1: then ball hit somewhere and they'll know where it came from.

954
00:41:03,320 --> 00:41:05,160
Speaker 1: I was like, coach, that's ridiculous. I'm not doing that,

955
00:41:05,320 --> 00:41:08,280
Speaker 1: but like but that's ride. But so anyway, so first kickoff,

956
00:41:08,719 --> 00:41:10,359
Speaker 1: I kind of I didn't. I didn't kick it great,

957
00:41:10,400 --> 00:41:13,160
Speaker 1: but it like like goes crazy, lands on like the

958
00:41:13,600 --> 00:41:15,960
Speaker 1: end line and we tack them inside the twenty so

959
00:41:16,239 --> 00:41:21,480
Speaker 1: and and then the the second kickoff, he goes, he goes,

960
00:41:21,520 --> 00:41:23,759
Speaker 1: you can pooch it right, like he was a directional kick.

961
00:41:24,320 --> 00:41:26,200
Speaker 1: It was like, yeah, coach the first team, mostake can

962
00:41:26,239 --> 00:41:29,759
Speaker 1: make it rain out here? Yeah, And uh so, so

963
00:41:29,880 --> 00:41:31,719
Speaker 1: I go to put the ball wherever you want. But

964
00:41:32,120 --> 00:41:33,800
Speaker 1: so I pooch kick it and like it lands on

965
00:41:33,920 --> 00:41:35,640
Speaker 1: like I think it's like the eight nine yard line

966
00:41:35,680 --> 00:41:38,480
Speaker 1: with some height to it like a pro. And but

967
00:41:38,600 --> 00:41:41,279
Speaker 1: I tear my quad on the second kick and so

968
00:41:41,360 --> 00:41:44,399
Speaker 1: I like limp downing like swinging your leg the kick. Yeah,

969
00:41:44,520 --> 00:41:47,560
Speaker 1: on that lockout, I popped my rectus memeris that muscle

970
00:41:47,600 --> 00:41:50,719
Speaker 1: on the top. Oh, So I popped my quad and

971
00:41:50,960 --> 00:41:53,640
Speaker 1: uh so I'm out for like four or five weeks.

972
00:41:53,680 --> 00:41:55,120
Speaker 1: So that that was that was a tough injury to

973
00:41:55,160 --> 00:41:57,120
Speaker 1: come back from because it's tough, like they're like the

974
00:41:57,200 --> 00:41:59,800

00:45:20,239 --> 00:45:21,319
Speaker 2: might be hyping it up too.

1044
00:45:21,280 --> 00:45:23,800
Speaker 1: Much, but it was something along those lines. It was

1045
00:45:23,840 --> 00:45:26,359
Speaker 1: something greaty. Now that's XBT, which is another whole different

1046
00:45:26,400 --> 00:45:28,800
Speaker 1: type of training. I got I got it somewhere on

1047
00:45:28,880 --> 00:45:31,040
Speaker 1: my Twitter or something. I'll get it cued up for you.

1048
00:45:31,280 --> 00:45:33,520
Speaker 4: And then you say that interview and then it all

1049
00:45:33,680 --> 00:45:35,080
Speaker 4: the XFL goes a ship.

1050
00:45:34,960 --> 00:45:37,240
Speaker 1: Well, so like it was, it was in full XFL

1051
00:45:37,320 --> 00:45:40,560
Speaker 1: fashion too. I was gonna start my first game because

1052
00:45:40,760 --> 00:45:43,839
Speaker 1: the starting linebacker before that threw a massive right hook

1053
00:45:43,880 --> 00:45:47,080
Speaker 1: at the running back, so he was suspended for the

1054
00:45:47,120 --> 00:45:52,120
Speaker 1: first half. So just a ship sho. But so you

1055
00:45:52,280 --> 00:45:53,879
Speaker 1: show up and then like so we're we're like heading

1056
00:45:53,920 --> 00:45:56,680
Speaker 1: to the bus to go play New York and Trump

1057
00:45:56,719 --> 00:45:59,719
Speaker 1: shuts everything down and so then the league folds and

1058
00:45:59,800 --> 00:46:02,080
Speaker 1: so I steal tape from that and send like the

1059
00:46:02,200 --> 00:46:04,680
Speaker 1: practice tape out whatever that look like like I've sent

1060
00:46:04,719 --> 00:46:06,399
Speaker 1: out some ridiculous tape over the years.

1061
00:46:06,840 --> 00:46:10,279
Speaker 2: I love the fucking commendment. You're sitting practice tape out?

1062
00:46:10,400 --> 00:46:12,839
Speaker 1: Oh dude, I need something like the big Oh dude,

1063
00:46:13,120 --> 00:46:15,520
Speaker 1: I have this whole other agent story because I flipped agents.

1064
00:46:16,320 --> 00:46:19,279
Speaker 2: Before you get into that, you said you tried five

1065
00:46:19,360 --> 00:46:21,920
Speaker 2: other leagues since the no I've been in five leagues.

1066
00:46:22,080 --> 00:46:26,080
Speaker 1: I was thinking about this other day, ARENA, UFL, CFL, NFL, XFL,

1067
00:46:26,239 --> 00:46:28,640
Speaker 1: like there's like, what I just need Mexico to have

1068
00:46:28,760 --> 00:46:30,759
Speaker 1: open up a league. Now go down there too, Like

1069
00:46:30,920 --> 00:46:36,720
Speaker 1: fuck dude, yeah, I mean it's like a fucking movie.

1070
00:46:36,960 --> 00:46:38,840
Speaker 1: It's ridiculous. You can make a movie out of that story.

1071
00:46:39,280 --> 00:46:40,600
Speaker 2: We might need to cut that out. We might need

1072
00:46:40,680 --> 00:46:41,960
Speaker 2: to edit this out and do our own thing. Just

1073
00:46:42,040 --> 00:46:44,239
Speaker 2: getting the tank, just getting the shark thing to think tank.

1074

Speaker 2: I can see it.

1098
00:47:53,680 --> 00:48:03,759

1100
00:48:10,120 --> 00:48:11,960

00:48:20,640 --> 00:48:23,040

1105
00:48:23,120 --> 00:48:30,120
Speaker 1: the gin. Yeah, but no pause. It counts though what

1106
00:48:30,160 --> 00:48:32,279
Speaker 1: we're talking about. Before, I don't know, we went on

1107
00:48:32,360 --> 00:48:36,840
Speaker 1: a nice tangent. Hey get that fucking like we were like,

1108
00:48:37,600 --> 00:48:39,920
Speaker 1: do we still want this the saga of the Saga

1109
00:48:39,960 --> 00:48:42,520
Speaker 1: of Brian Peters to continue with the agent deal too?

1110
00:48:42,600 --> 00:48:45,160
Speaker 1: That was a whole ship show. Way is it now?

1111
00:48:46,239 --> 00:48:46,360
Speaker 5: Is it?

1112
00:48:46,480 --> 00:48:49,080
Speaker 1: This is a new agent and like I wanted like

1113
00:48:49,120 --> 00:48:51,319
Speaker 1: a little bit bigger agent, a little more greasy guy

1114
00:48:51,360 --> 00:48:53,080
Speaker 1: because I had no leverage because my last year I

1115
00:48:53,200 --> 00:48:55,520
Speaker 1: played hurt like I shot my ankle, I took thirty

1116
00:48:55,520 --> 00:48:57,680
Speaker 1: shots to the ankle, my last season, like like the

1117
00:48:57,760 --> 00:48:59,160
Speaker 1: thirty shots of the ankle and what were we talking

1118
00:48:59,160 --> 00:49:01,719
Speaker 1: about here quarters? Yeah, so like so I couldn't I

1119
00:49:01,800 --> 00:49:04,399
Speaker 1: really couldn't like feel my foot like the last ten

1120
00:49:04,480 --> 00:49:07,799
Speaker 1: games I played in the NFL, because like so they

1121
00:49:07,880 --> 00:49:10,240
Speaker 1: misdiagnosed me. They said, like I tore my deltoid ligament

1122
00:49:10,320 --> 00:49:12,080
Speaker 1: on the inside, that I could play. Three weeks later

1123
00:49:12,200 --> 00:49:14,320
Speaker 1: and we lost three linebackers and injury, so like I

1124
00:49:14,360 --> 00:49:16,600
Speaker 1: had a chance to start and play on defense, which

1125
00:49:16,640 --> 00:49:19,480
Speaker 1: I hadn't had in the NFL yet. So hustled back

1126
00:49:19,520 --> 00:49:22,359
Speaker 1: for the Bronx this Broncos game. Hey, Braves, your coach

1127
00:49:22,440 --> 00:49:25,040
Speaker 1: is Rabier. Braves has gone. This is twenty eighteen. He's

1128
00:49:25,080 --> 00:49:28,520
Speaker 1: here with the Titans now. So drug you in those

1129
00:49:28,560 --> 00:49:32,640
Speaker 1: linebacker meetings? Oh for real, Yeah he's but uh oh

1130
00:49:32,760 --> 00:49:35,640
Speaker 1: yeah dude, Uh I got some brave stories too. But

1131
00:49:37,000 --> 00:49:40,640
Speaker 1: but anyways, uh we all do. Yeah, if you know brave,

1132
00:49:40,640 --> 00:49:42,640
Speaker 1: well you have a story, even if you're a stranger.

1133
00:49:42,760 --> 00:49:47,120
Speaker 1: You see them straight. Yeah story. But no, so like

1134
00:49:47,239 --> 00:49:49,400
Speaker 1: the deltoy's on the inside of the ankle, But all

1135
00:49:49,440 --> 00:49:51,239
Speaker 1: my pain was on the outside, and I keep kept

1136
00:49:51,239 --> 00:49:53,040
Speaker 1: telling my trainers my pain's on the outside, I have

1137
00:49:53,120 --> 00:49:54,960
Speaker 1: no pain on the inside, like all, that's just the

1138
00:49:55,040 --> 00:49:57,440
Speaker 1: inflammation rolling over. So but I ended up so I

1139
00:49:57,480 --> 00:50:00,360
Speaker 1: ended up playing ten weeks on half an ankle that

1140
00:50:00,560 --> 00:50:02,640
Speaker 1: once they got in for like eventually my calf tour

1141
00:50:03,040 --> 00:50:05,480
Speaker 1: from overcomm stating for my ankle and I got they

1142
00:50:05,520 --> 00:50:07,279
Speaker 1: got in for surgery, and I had this condra lesion.

1143
00:50:07,280 --> 00:50:09,200
Speaker 1: I had this cartilage torn off the bone, and so

1144
00:50:09,280 --> 00:50:10,920
Speaker 1: I was playing with that the whole damn time. But

1145
00:50:11,880 --> 00:50:14,400
Speaker 1: but anyway, so shoot quarter.

1146
00:50:14,360 --> 00:50:18,200
Speaker 2: Zone Yeah, which is dumb as ship. Yeah yeah, yeah, terrible. Yeah,

1147
00:50:18,480 --> 00:50:20,720
Speaker 2: this is a terrible just a band aid. Yeah, exact

1148
00:50:21,360 --> 00:50:22,360
Speaker 2: was like the worst thing you can do.

1149
00:50:22,640 --> 00:50:24,719
Speaker 1: Yeah, and then like I'm getting stem cells going into

1150
00:50:24,719 --> 00:50:26,400
Speaker 1: the PRP and that kind of thing. But anyways, so

1151
00:50:26,520 --> 00:50:28,560
Speaker 1: like I knew I had no leverage, like like like

1152
00:50:28,640 --> 00:50:30,680
Speaker 1: I'm coming off my worst season, Like you know, you

1153
00:50:30,760 --> 00:50:32,640
Speaker 1: can't play special teams if you don't have one hundred

1154
00:50:32,640 --> 00:50:34,320
Speaker 1: percent in the tank, like like I hadn't. I was

1155
00:50:34,360 --> 00:50:36,839
Speaker 1: running like ninety percent of top speed ninety five whatever,

1156
00:50:36,960 --> 00:50:39,240
Speaker 1: But you get buried if you don't have top speed agility.

1157
00:50:39,400 --> 00:50:42,120
Speaker 1: So I didn't put out a good tape regardless of point. Yeah, well,

1158
00:50:42,239 --> 00:50:44,560
Speaker 1: let me tell my story. Yeah, that's the story I

1159
00:50:44,640 --> 00:50:47,759
Speaker 1: tell myself. It's not like you need insane top speed

1160
00:50:49,560 --> 00:50:55,040
Speaker 1: but example right, yeah, but but anyways, Uh, so I

1161
00:50:55,120 --> 00:50:57,279
Speaker 1: switched agents I wanted, like because the last deal I

1162
00:50:57,360 --> 00:50:59,880
Speaker 1: got from my last one year deal, I wasn't ecstatic

1163
00:51:00,000 --> 00:51:01,759
Speaker 1: about it, and so I was like, all right, I

1164
00:51:01,800 --> 00:51:04,239
Speaker 1: need someone more contacts this time around and try and

1165
00:51:04,440 --> 00:51:06,840
Speaker 1: get deals. So this guy sold me I like I

1166
00:51:06,920 --> 00:51:09,600
Speaker 1: had met him through one of my uh Northwestern buddies

1167
00:51:10,120 --> 00:51:14,160
Speaker 1: and probably my least favorite human. So I'm gonna try

1168
00:51:14,200 --> 00:51:17,200
Speaker 1: and like temper myself a little bit. But so he

1169
00:51:17,360 --> 00:51:19,200
Speaker 1: tells a new agent. This new agent, so he tells

1170
00:51:19,239 --> 00:51:20,440
Speaker 1: me all these things like he can do for me,

1171
00:51:20,680 --> 00:51:22,399
Speaker 1: gives me a timeline for like when we think we're

1172
00:51:22,400 --> 00:51:25,000
Speaker 1: gonna get signed, what conversation's gonna have, And so I

1173
00:51:25,080 --> 00:51:27,839
Speaker 1: hold him accountable to these things like hey, like Combine's over,

1174
00:51:27,960 --> 00:51:30,239
Speaker 1: like where are your conversations at? And he's like he's

1175
00:51:30,320 --> 00:51:33,400
Speaker 1: like saying like Tennessee and other things where like like

1176
00:51:33,800 --> 00:51:35,880
Speaker 1: like I didn't think Braves was a massive fan of me,

1177
00:51:35,920 --> 00:51:37,239
Speaker 1: so I didn't think he was gonna try and get

1178
00:51:37,280 --> 00:51:38,560
Speaker 1: me there or anything like that. So I was like

1179
00:51:38,840 --> 00:51:41,000
Speaker 1: let's work on other avenues. And then like I'm so,

1180
00:51:41,080 --> 00:51:43,760
Speaker 1: I call him like two three times a week. Sometimes

1181
00:51:44,040 --> 00:51:46,520
Speaker 1: they're saying, hey, what's up, Like anything happening, like not

1182
00:51:46,680 --> 00:51:49,960
Speaker 1: big conversations, and then eventually, like one of his other

1183
00:51:50,000 --> 00:51:53,000
Speaker 1: guys fires him, and I was cool with him. So

1184
00:51:53,080 --> 00:51:55,040
Speaker 1: we were talking and then at one point, like I

1185
00:51:55,400 --> 00:51:57,279
Speaker 1: was like, hey, what's going on? Like like you said,

1186
00:51:57,360 --> 00:51:59,799
Speaker 1: like we'd have like opportunities by now, and I got

1187
00:51:59,920 --> 00:52:01,000
Speaker 1: to give him a lot to work with this so

1188
00:52:01,120 --> 00:52:04,040
Speaker 1: like in hindsight, maybe I wasn't the best client either.

1189
00:52:04,160 --> 00:52:06,440
Speaker 1: But he goes, if you want to fire me, to

1190
00:52:06,600 --> 00:52:08,840
Speaker 1: go ahead, and I go, I'm not trying to fire you.

1191
00:52:08,880 --> 00:52:11,000
Speaker 1: I'm trying to figure out what's going on. And so

1192
00:52:11,080 --> 00:52:13,160
Speaker 1: we have this conversation. It was a real rough conversation,

1193
00:52:13,680 --> 00:52:15,839
Speaker 1: and then like the next time we talked, I ended

1194
00:52:15,880 --> 00:52:17,560
Speaker 1: up firing him and going back to my old agent.

1195
00:52:17,960 --> 00:52:21,440
Speaker 1: But dude, this conversation with this agent was out of control.

1196
00:52:21,520 --> 00:52:25,879
Speaker 1: He goes. He goes, you're a northwestern guy, like you're

1197
00:52:25,880 --> 00:52:27,960
Speaker 1: supposed to be high character. Everybody's gonna know you have

1198
00:52:28,120 --> 00:52:30,879
Speaker 1: terrible character now now that you fired me. He goes,

1199
00:52:31,640 --> 00:52:35,279
Speaker 1: I'm gonna know forever, Like he goes, if you become

1200
00:52:35,360 --> 00:52:37,759
Speaker 1: the CEO of FedEx, he goes, I'm gonna know that

1201
00:52:37,800 --> 00:52:40,400
Speaker 1: you still have You're a terrible person, you have terrible character,

1202
00:52:40,760 --> 00:52:42,480
Speaker 1: like just lays into me. I was like, listen, dude,

1203
00:52:42,800 --> 00:52:44,520
Speaker 1: like I'm not trying to like make this a thing

1204
00:52:44,680 --> 00:52:46,719
Speaker 1: like if like you've obviously worked for me, I'll pay

1205
00:52:46,719 --> 00:52:48,440
Speaker 1: you for your time and that kind of thing. He goes,

1206
00:52:48,600 --> 00:52:50,719
Speaker 1: he was, he was, I don't want your money, he goes.

1207
00:52:50,840 --> 00:52:53,040
Speaker 1: He goes, I've been in this league or this business

1208
00:52:53,080 --> 00:52:55,319
Speaker 1: for fourteen years. You're gonna need the money more than

Speaker 1: as a coach fantastic while I was there too, Like

1267

Speaker 1: this anyway coach.

1270
00:55:28,719 --> 00:55:30,320
Speaker 2: Essentially you get mad if you're not like one of

1271
00:55:30,360 --> 00:55:32,680
Speaker 2: his guys. Who gets who'll get like praise or.

1272
00:55:32,680 --> 00:55:35,239

Speaker 1: standard up performance and like guys that like so like

1277
00:55:44,840 --> 00:55:46,520
Speaker 1: initially when I got there, like I think it was

1278
00:55:46,560 --> 00:55:48,839
Speaker 1: like Thursday or Friday, Like he has his like hour

1279
00:55:48,920 --> 00:55:53,400
Speaker 1: long quiz, so he's quizzing everybody in the room special teams, offense,

1280
00:55:53,480 --> 00:55:56,239
Speaker 1: defense on different scenarios, different jobs and that kind of

1281
00:55:56,280 --> 00:55:58,839
Speaker 1: stuff like who's the like best petch teams, like who's

1282
00:55:58,920 --> 00:56:00,480
Speaker 1: the punter And if a guy doesn't know, he just

1283
00:56:00,600 --> 00:56:02,520
Speaker 1: he'll keep burying you until you get some right or

1284
00:56:03,040 --> 00:56:06,080
Speaker 1: peters what's the fucking right answer or something like that. Yeah. Yeah,

1285
00:56:06,080 --> 00:56:08,600
Speaker 1: and then but like we we we had some we

1286
00:56:08,719 --> 00:56:11,399
Speaker 1: had we had some funny ass bits about it too though,

1287
00:56:11,560 --> 00:56:14,960
Speaker 1: because he like he also like gauged the level of

1288
00:56:15,040 --> 00:56:17,360
Speaker 1: difficulty on the question to the person he was asking

1289
00:56:17,440 --> 00:56:20,080
Speaker 1: the question too. It's super funny. So be like cush

1290
00:56:20,160 --> 00:56:23,239
Speaker 1: what's their top three runs? And like whatever, pro I

1291
00:56:23,320 --> 00:56:26,759
Speaker 1: write whatever. All these things then like Jayalen Jalen, we

1292
00:56:26,880 --> 00:56:29,120
Speaker 1: got like if if if you if you run out

1293
00:56:29,120 --> 00:56:30,520
Speaker 1: and he throws your ball, do you do you do

1294
00:56:30,640 --> 00:56:32,719
Speaker 1: you catch it? Yeah? You catch it? Just goes him

1295
00:56:32,800 --> 00:56:33,000
Speaker 1: on it.

1296
00:56:33,719 --> 00:56:36,319
Speaker 2: But does that a little bit? I mean they might

1297
00:56:36,360 --> 00:56:39,240
Speaker 2: get it from like Belichick. Yeah, like the team keys,

1298
00:56:39,480 --> 00:56:41,120
Speaker 2: the understanding your person.

1299
00:56:41,640 --> 00:56:44,160
Speaker 1: It's a great tool for accountability. Like I'm just trying

1300
00:56:44,200 --> 00:56:46,000
Speaker 1: to tell the stories. But like he like but like

1301
00:56:46,520 --> 00:56:48,560
Speaker 1: all that stuff is necessary. And then like I also

1302
00:56:48,680 --> 00:56:50,600
Speaker 1: think like it like if you can't like if you

1303
00:56:50,680 --> 00:56:52,640
Speaker 1: know the information, you can't relay it in a meeting,

1304
00:56:52,840 --> 00:56:55,719
Speaker 1: like you're gonna be a liability, right, So like if

1305
00:56:55,760 --> 00:56:57,759
Speaker 1: if you don't know again, like say they switch out

1306
00:56:57,800 --> 00:56:59,320
Speaker 1: a wing or a punter, like all those things, like

1307
00:56:59,440 --> 00:57:02,840
Speaker 1: the like little details like you're gonna get exposed at

1308
00:57:02,880 --> 00:57:04,160
Speaker 1: one point. If you can't do it, I mean, you're

01:00:34,920 --> 01:00:37,000
Speaker 2: a long time, but it was, uh, we'll figure it out, but.

1376
01:00:37,040 --> 01:00:40,320
Speaker 1: Anyway, but no, your coach like yeah, but like so

1377
01:00:40,520 --> 01:00:42,560
Speaker 1: like people see like the fac like it's not a

1378
01:00:42,600 --> 01:00:44,880
Speaker 1: facaet he puts on. Like the dude's tough as nails.

1379
01:00:44,960 --> 01:00:47,800
Speaker 1: He like like he like if he's there, he's on,

1380
01:00:48,080 --> 01:00:50,920
Speaker 1: like he like he he it's dude, he's a fucking

1381
01:00:50,960 --> 01:00:54,000
Speaker 1: warrior like so he like and like if once you

1382
01:00:54,120 --> 01:00:56,000
Speaker 1: like get to know him and get into his mindset

1383
01:00:56,080 --> 01:00:58,080
Speaker 1: to like the dude treats a football game like a

1384
01:00:58,120 --> 01:01:00,520
Speaker 1: street fight, like that's what he wires his brain. Four

1385
01:01:01,960 --> 01:01:04,840
Speaker 1: crazy New Jersey best Oh crazy New and this dude, Uh,

1386
01:01:05,800 --> 01:01:08,520
Speaker 1: there's so many stupid nuanced stories to cush too, where

1387
01:01:08,560 --> 01:01:11,960
Speaker 1: like I don't think he timed it perfectly, but he

1388
01:01:12,080 --> 01:01:14,000
Speaker 1: did it a lot where I think he timed it.

1389
01:01:14,080 --> 01:01:16,000
Speaker 1: So every time we had the team prayer in the shower,

1390
01:01:16,360 --> 01:01:18,280
Speaker 1: Coush would be in there puking his guts out. He

1391
01:01:18,280 --> 01:01:21,000
Speaker 1: peaks for every game, just puking his guts out, and

1392
01:01:21,040 --> 01:01:23,560
Speaker 1: then like he'd be like, screw Peters. I threw up

1393
01:01:23,560 --> 01:01:28,200
Speaker 1: the ko Q twelve pill. The whole pill Like yeah,

1394
01:01:28,360 --> 01:01:30,960
Speaker 1: but he's the man he but did he like he

1395
01:01:31,200 --> 01:01:33,960
Speaker 1: like that's like that's his deal. Like he's physically plays tough,

1396
01:01:34,120 --> 01:01:37,320
Speaker 1: like he gets the job done. He's uh like yeah

1397
01:01:37,360 --> 01:01:39,160
Speaker 1: he has this like I mean like the legend and

1398
01:01:39,240 --> 01:01:42,560
Speaker 1: like he's like this crazy strong He's an incredibly strong human. Yeah,

1399
01:01:42,640 --> 01:01:45,160
Speaker 1: but he like he's he's earned all that, like like

1400
01:01:45,480 --> 01:01:48,880
Speaker 1: he's he's very respected. Oh yeah, he's fully respected. But

1401
01:01:49,000 --> 01:01:51,760
Speaker 1: yeah he's dude, I mean look at him, dude, look shah.

1402
01:01:52,080 --> 01:01:53,880
Speaker 1: The prayer showers are the best.

1403
01:01:54,320 --> 01:01:56,320
Speaker 2: Yeah, like they'd be like all right, you know, you

1404
01:01:56,360 --> 01:01:58,720
Speaker 2: got all the rap music playing, like the murdering songs, this,

1405
01:01:58,800 --> 01:02:00,160
Speaker 2: that and the other. It's like all right, prayer and

1406
01:02:00,280 --> 01:02:02,280
Speaker 2: shower and the music goes down and it pretty much

1407
01:02:02,480 --> 01:02:05,120
Speaker 2: essentially everybody gets stuff there you go. It's just I

1408
01:02:05,160 --> 01:02:07,720
Speaker 2: don't know, it's just prayer in the shower. It's where

1409
01:02:08,360 --> 01:02:09,040
Speaker 2: I have no clue.

1410
01:02:09,280 --> 01:02:11,360
Speaker 1: Why is it the show just the only empty space

1411
01:02:11,360 --> 01:02:13,160
Speaker 1: because like not everybody comes to prayer either.

1412
01:02:13,240 --> 01:02:15,120
Speaker 2: Yeah, not everybody goes to prayer. So if you're just

1413
01:02:15,200 --> 01:02:17,439
Speaker 2: doing the locker room around people who don't go to prayer, yeah,

1414
01:02:17,800 --> 01:02:19,880
Speaker 2: and I'll just be like yelling them knock yourself. Hey,

1415
01:02:19,960 --> 01:02:23,880
Speaker 2: tell the prayer where Jesus woofs their ass. They're going

1416
01:02:23,960 --> 01:02:24,320
Speaker 2: back there.

1417
01:02:25,280 --> 01:02:26,520
Speaker 1: Oh yeah, And.

1418
01:02:26,600 --> 01:02:27,880
Speaker 2: Then you get done with the prayer, and then you

1419
01:02:27,920 --> 01:02:29,480
Speaker 2: come back and then you turn the rat music back up.

1420
01:02:29,520 --> 01:02:31,400
Speaker 1: You're ready to go out there and murder somebody. You go,

1421
01:02:31,560 --> 01:02:34,120
Speaker 1: put the women and children to sleep, the sins come. Yeah. Yeah,

1422
01:02:34,760 --> 01:02:35,600
Speaker 1: to get right with God.

1423
01:02:36,000 --> 01:02:40,800
Speaker 2: Yeah, talk about mind strong and we'll get into because

1424
01:02:40,800 --> 01:02:42,920
Speaker 2: you're also trying to get into the podcast or with

1425
01:02:43,040 --> 01:02:45,480
Speaker 2: Chasing Edges. But talk a little bit about mind strong

1426
01:02:45,600 --> 01:02:49,200
Speaker 2: and your your journey with this whole breath work, performance,

1427
01:02:49,600 --> 01:02:51,560
Speaker 2: human performance, all that stuff.

1428
01:02:51,640 --> 01:02:54,840
Speaker 1: Yeah for sure. It uh low key. So it started

1429
01:02:55,320 --> 01:02:57,640
Speaker 1: that when I was down in Houston like twenty sixteen,

1430
01:02:57,800 --> 01:03:00,640
Speaker 1: like the team was paying for us do the sensory

1431
01:03:00,680 --> 01:03:03,120
Speaker 1: deprivation chamber like the float tanks, and I was in

1432
01:03:03,200 --> 01:03:04,760
Speaker 1: there and I was just bullshit like trying to hold

1433
01:03:04,800 --> 01:03:06,200
Speaker 1: my breath as long as I could. So I get

1434
01:03:06,240 --> 01:03:07,920
Speaker 1: out and google how do you hold your breath longer?

1435
01:03:08,160 --> 01:03:10,240
Speaker 1: And it was like free diving and whim Hoff method.

1436
01:03:10,400 --> 01:03:13,120
Speaker 1: So I started going deep into those and I like

1437
01:03:13,200 --> 01:03:14,919
Speaker 1: I went from like holding my breath from a minute

1438
01:03:14,960 --> 01:03:16,560
Speaker 1: to like three minutes, three and a half, and I

1439
01:03:16,600 --> 01:03:19,080
Speaker 1: started like getting really good at holding my breath for

1440
01:03:19,200 --> 01:03:22,840
Speaker 1: whatever damn reason. Yeah. And then my buddy at the

1441
01:03:22,880 --> 01:03:25,760
Speaker 1: same time, Harvey Martin, was up in Minnesota, and he

1442
01:03:25,880 --> 01:03:28,160
Speaker 1: was going through the wim Hoff stuff, like he's like

1443
01:03:28,240 --> 01:03:30,400
Speaker 1: transitioning out of the baseball world, and it was like

1444
01:03:30,480 --> 01:03:34,680
Speaker 1: kind of picking him up emotionally, like like his physiology everything.

1445
01:03:34,720 --> 01:03:36,920
Speaker 1: He was feeling good and like it became like a

1446
01:03:37,040 --> 01:03:39,240
Speaker 1: tool for him to like get through what he was

1447
01:03:39,280 --> 01:03:41,320
Speaker 1: going through. And then he started applying it to sport

1448
01:03:41,400 --> 01:03:43,560
Speaker 1: up there. He was a pitching coach, so he started

1449
01:03:43,600 --> 01:03:45,680
Speaker 1: applying it to baseball players. But like, so at the time,

1450
01:03:45,760 --> 01:03:47,680
Speaker 1: I was doing the free diving and the wim Hoff stuff.

1451
01:03:48,160 --> 01:03:51,560
Speaker 1: And that's when Luke Richardson came into Houston, the strength

1452
01:03:51,640 --> 01:03:56,040
Speaker 1: coach took over for Yeah. So and so we're down

1453
01:03:56,120 --> 01:03:58,480
Speaker 1: there and he comes down and he assesses the team

1454
01:03:58,560 --> 01:04:00,880
Speaker 1: and realized and he comes to conclue that we're unfit

1455
01:04:01,000 --> 01:04:03,200
Speaker 1: to run. He does like the FMS scores and like

1456
01:04:03,280 --> 01:04:05,800
Speaker 1: the nord Board hamstring strength tests and stuff and says like,

1457
01:04:06,120 --> 01:04:08,040
Speaker 1: you guys aren't fit to run yet. We need to

1458
01:04:08,080 --> 01:04:11,680
Speaker 1: work on firing pattern, trigger pointing, glute strength, all these things.

1459
01:04:12,040 --> 01:04:14,080
Speaker 1: So and he gave the whole state of union, like

1460
01:04:14,440 --> 01:04:16,520
Speaker 1: nobody runs outside of here. If you run, I don't

1461
01:04:16,520 --> 01:04:19,520
Speaker 1: care if you're JJ Watt, DeAndre Hopkins. Nobody runs until

1462
01:04:19,560 --> 01:04:22,640
Speaker 1: I say so. And so nobody's running. And but I'm

1463
01:04:22,680 --> 01:04:24,920
Speaker 1: doing this breath work stuff at the time, just like

1464
01:04:25,120 --> 01:04:27,360
Speaker 1: staying busy. And then I kind of found this XPT

1465
01:04:27,480 --> 01:04:30,200
Speaker 1: pool training and stuff at the same time. And so

1466
01:04:30,320 --> 01:04:32,840
Speaker 1: then once we do start running a month later, we

1467
01:04:32,920 --> 01:04:34,360
Speaker 1: do like a warm up run one day and the

1468
01:04:34,440 --> 01:04:37,480
Speaker 1: next day we run conditioning and dude, I'm like, my

1469
01:04:37,640 --> 01:04:40,840
Speaker 1: conditioning levels still nails, Like I mean, you're not running.

1470
01:04:41,080 --> 01:04:43,360
Speaker 1: This is you not running? Yeah, without running, And we

1471
01:04:43,440 --> 01:04:45,600
Speaker 1: walk into our first conditioning day and like I'm out

1472
01:04:45,680 --> 01:04:47,960
Speaker 1: running all linebackers and I'm running with the DB's like

1473
01:04:48,160 --> 01:04:50,439
Speaker 1: I'm crushing some of the DB's and I'm like there's

1474
01:04:50,440 --> 01:04:52,440
Speaker 1: something like there's something here. How long were you not

1475
01:04:52,560 --> 01:04:54,439
Speaker 1: running again, Like explain this about a month?

1476
01:04:54,680 --> 01:04:56,600
Speaker 4: Yeah, yeah, so like a month no running, you're just

1477
01:04:56,640 --> 01:04:57,200
Speaker 4: doing breath work.

1478
01:04:57,240 --> 01:04:59,080
Speaker 1: Yeah, well we're doing breath Then we're doing strength training

1479
01:04:59,120 --> 01:05:01,480
Speaker 1: in the gym, like we're doing hamstring eccentrics, we're doing

1480
01:05:01,640 --> 01:05:05,160
Speaker 1: glute activations as far as no, I'm not doing anything

1481
01:05:05,280 --> 01:05:07,560
Speaker 1: besides like my breath work stuff, and so I all right,

1482
01:05:07,560 --> 01:05:10,120
Speaker 1: there's something here. And then that's when like me and

1483
01:05:10,240 --> 01:05:12,720
Speaker 1: my buddy Harvey started to put together this mind Strong

1484
01:05:12,800 --> 01:05:16,520
Speaker 1: project to where like how can breath improve sports performance?

1485
01:05:16,840 --> 01:05:19,000
Speaker 1: And so like people in the world then where this

1486
01:05:19,120 --> 01:05:23,480
Speaker 1: dude Brian McKenzie, Lard Hamilton and his wife Gabby Gabby Reese,

1487
01:05:23,800 --> 01:05:25,320
Speaker 1: and like there's not a lot of people in this

1488
01:05:25,440 --> 01:05:27,600
Speaker 1: breath world. So like it's kind of like we're starting

1489
01:05:27,600 --> 01:05:29,480
Speaker 1: to figure out that this is like a missing pillar

1490
01:05:29,640 --> 01:05:33,280
Speaker 1: of human performance, right and so and now then eventually,

1491
01:05:33,320 --> 01:05:35,320
Speaker 1: like as you get into the weeds of it, it's

1492
01:05:35,400 --> 01:05:38,360
Speaker 1: not human performance just like being a good, clean human

1493
01:05:38,440 --> 01:05:41,000
Speaker 1: being in the first place. You start learning about mouth

1494
01:05:41,040 --> 01:05:44,520
Speaker 1: breathing and versus nasal breathing and what actual like calm

1495
01:05:44,560 --> 01:05:47,000
Speaker 1: breathing does to the mind. And then like how like

1496
01:05:47,080 --> 01:05:48,920
Speaker 1: if you are a mouth breather, how you're more like

1497
01:05:49,040 --> 01:05:50,960
Speaker 1: more likely to like so I know you take your mouth,

1498
01:05:51,520 --> 01:05:54,840
Speaker 1: yeah yeah, so like you're more likely for sleep apnea

1499
01:05:55,000 --> 01:05:57,040
Speaker 1: and stress and anxiety and all these things. And so

1500
01:05:57,160 --> 01:05:59,840
Speaker 1: we start asking why, and like these mentors in the

1501
01:06:00,240 --> 01:06:02,400
Speaker 1: the realm, we're able to answer these questions for us.

1502
01:06:02,480 --> 01:06:04,640
Speaker 1: And eventually we did our own research, so you got

1503
01:06:04,680 --> 01:06:06,640
Speaker 1: like the auction advantage, you got all these books in

1504
01:06:06,720 --> 01:06:09,040
Speaker 1: the art of it too, and then we started demoing

1505
01:06:09,080 --> 01:06:11,720
Speaker 1: all these meditation methods and stuff, and eventually it became

1506
01:06:11,800 --> 01:06:15,320
Speaker 1: this human performance company where we're teaching breath work to

1507
01:06:15,680 --> 01:06:18,320
Speaker 1: teach mental skills. So not only are we improving your

1508
01:06:18,360 --> 01:06:21,680
Speaker 1: performance and your VO two max and stuff with breath work. Now,

1509
01:06:21,880 --> 01:06:24,480
Speaker 1: like if you can control your breath and your physiology,

1510
01:06:24,480 --> 01:06:26,640
Speaker 1: you can actually control your psychology. And they're tied very

1511
01:06:26,720 --> 01:06:29,920
Speaker 1: closely together. So like kind of our stance on it

1512
01:06:30,120 --> 01:06:33,440
Speaker 1: is like psychologies unresolved physiology, like your heart rate and

1513
01:06:33,520 --> 01:06:36,160
Speaker 1: your respiratory rate tell the brain that you're safe and

1514
01:06:36,240 --> 01:06:38,240
Speaker 1: you can solve problems. If not, you regress and you

1515
01:06:38,320 --> 01:06:40,240
Speaker 1: can't solve problems. And I think that shows up in

1516
01:06:40,280 --> 01:06:42,360
Speaker 1: football too, like guys that are too amped up, or

1517
01:06:42,440 --> 01:06:44,920
Speaker 1: like young kids that can't like they know what to do,

1518
01:06:45,040 --> 01:06:46,520
Speaker 1: they know how to play cover three, they know how

1519
01:06:46,560 --> 01:06:48,200
Speaker 1: to play man to man all day, but they freak

1520
01:06:48,280 --> 01:06:50,919
Speaker 1: out like they're probably not breathing and they're not calm.

1521
01:06:50,960 --> 01:06:52,720
Speaker 1: They don't understand that, like the breath is a tool

1522
01:06:52,800 --> 01:06:54,760
Speaker 1: to down regulate and focus and things like that. So

1523
01:06:55,360 --> 01:06:58,760
Speaker 1: we've created this company around those skills and so we

1524
01:06:59,400 --> 01:07:01,800
Speaker 1: can improve your athletic performance and then we can like

1525
01:07:02,000 --> 01:07:03,720
Speaker 1: help you get control of your sports so you're a

1526
01:07:03,760 --> 01:07:05,680
Speaker 1: sports I college and your mental skills too. So it's

1527
01:07:05,680 --> 01:07:08,480
Speaker 1: been it's been a cool little little journey. We started

1528
01:07:08,520 --> 01:07:11,040
Speaker 1: that like back in twenty fifteen loosely, and then it

1529
01:07:11,160 --> 01:07:13,120
Speaker 1: like it built as we got deeper and deeper into

1530
01:07:13,480 --> 01:07:14,120
Speaker 1: breath work.

1531
01:07:14,080 --> 01:07:16,560
Speaker 2: And now you guys are getting into professional sports, right, Yeah,

1532
01:07:16,600 --> 01:07:18,000
Speaker 2: so we're starting to get to the level of working

1533
01:07:18,040 --> 01:07:19,000
Speaker 2: with professional athletes.

1534
01:07:19,080 --> 01:07:21,360
Speaker 1: Yeah. So we we were the first breath coach and

1535
01:07:21,560 --> 01:07:24,960
Speaker 1: the MLB we have a contract as the breast specialists

1536
01:07:25,000 --> 01:07:28,280
Speaker 1: for the San Francisco Giants, who are number one right now.

1537
01:07:28,320 --> 01:07:31,040
Speaker 1: Shout out to the Giants, to the boys. And then

1538
01:07:31,080 --> 01:07:33,800
Speaker 1: where we got a bunch of NHL guys. They've they've

1539
01:07:33,880 --> 01:07:37,240
Speaker 1: gravitated towards it because I mean VO two max is

1540
01:07:37,720 --> 01:07:40,560
Speaker 1: like the standard for hockey because their wark capacity is

1541
01:07:40,600 --> 01:07:43,840
Speaker 1: so high. Yeah, so we have about like six seven

1542
01:07:43,960 --> 01:07:47,440
Speaker 1: NHL guys that work with us pretty regularly. Definitely do

1543
01:07:47,520 --> 01:07:49,360
Speaker 1: like the full off season program and that kind of thing.

1544
01:07:49,400 --> 01:07:52,600
Speaker 1: And then we got a few pitchers around the MLB too.

1545
01:07:52,760 --> 01:07:54,880
Speaker 1: But yeah, so it's grown and it's got some traction

1546
01:07:55,000 --> 01:07:56,800
Speaker 1: and people like the cool thing about is you can

1547
01:07:56,880 --> 01:07:58,520
Speaker 1: feel it, Like like we went through a little bit

1548
01:07:58,520 --> 01:08:01,680
Speaker 1: of something this morning, me and you, the hypoxic work.

1549
01:08:01,760 --> 01:08:04,200
Speaker 1: But like it's just like it's it's a tool.

1550
01:08:04,680 --> 01:08:06,520
Speaker 2: Right if I'm an athlete talking to you or just

1551
01:08:06,600 --> 01:08:09,959
Speaker 2: anybody anybody listening to, Like, what's a simple explanation about

1552
01:08:10,000 --> 01:08:13,520
Speaker 2: why people should be curious about breathing correctly? Yeah, I

1553
01:08:13,560 --> 01:08:15,480
Speaker 2: mean in breath performance and.

1554
01:08:16,040 --> 01:08:18,680
Speaker 1: Yeah, I mean like like you can start from the

1555
01:08:18,920 --> 01:08:21,400
Speaker 1: like the principles of it, like like why should you

1556
01:08:21,439 --> 01:08:23,439
Speaker 1: breathe them through your mouth versus your nose? And when

1557
01:08:23,600 --> 01:08:26,120
Speaker 1: like like if you're fighting somebody, yeah, breathing through your

1558
01:08:26,160 --> 01:08:28,800
Speaker 1: mouth all day, Like the primary benefit of breathing through

1559
01:08:28,800 --> 01:08:30,479
Speaker 1: your mouth is to get more auction in and out.

1560
01:08:30,920 --> 01:08:32,880
Speaker 1: But now you start talking about this how you breathe

1561
01:08:32,880 --> 01:08:35,360
Speaker 1: throughout the day, like that that compounds more than anything,

1562
01:08:35,439 --> 01:08:38,040
Speaker 1: like if your mouth breathing all day, Like, so the mouth,

1563
01:08:38,439 --> 01:08:40,840
Speaker 1: the mouth is digestive, the nose is respiratory. Like that's

1564
01:08:40,880 --> 01:08:44,680
Speaker 1: how atomic anatomically worked build That's how God built us.

1565
01:08:45,200 --> 01:08:46,880
Speaker 1: So if you're breeding through your nose, the air is

1566
01:08:46,880 --> 01:08:50,200
Speaker 1: getting cleaned, humidified, you have the ability to access nitric oxide.

1567
01:08:50,600 --> 01:08:52,479
Speaker 1: You breed into the belly, which is the bottom of

1568
01:08:52,520 --> 01:08:55,800
Speaker 1: the lung. You strengthen the diaphragm and the pelvic floor.

1569
01:08:55,800 --> 01:08:59,120
Speaker 1: If you're breathing, breathing properly through your nose and so like,

1570
01:08:59,280 --> 01:09:01,679
Speaker 1: now that's spine alignment and stability. Like there's a bunch

1571
01:09:01,720 --> 01:09:06,280
Speaker 1: of like fundamental benefits to just properly breathing, good breathing mechanics.

1572
01:09:06,600 --> 01:09:08,080
Speaker 1: And then now if you want to be an athlete

1573
01:09:08,080 --> 01:09:09,840
Speaker 1: and you want to be a dog, now you like

1574
01:09:10,080 --> 01:09:13,320
Speaker 1: address your relationship with oxygen and carbon dioxide. Like it

1575
01:09:13,400 --> 01:09:16,080
Speaker 1: doesn't matter if you're four hundred pounds or you're one

1576
01:09:16,160 --> 01:09:18,040
Speaker 1: hundred and fifty pounds. I put an oximiner on your

1577
01:09:18,040 --> 01:09:19,800
Speaker 1: finger that reads the auctionyen in your blood. It's going

1578
01:09:19,880 --> 01:09:22,000
Speaker 1: to be ninety five to ninety nine unless you're you

1579
01:09:22,120 --> 01:09:25,679
Speaker 1: have some lung disorder. So the problem is not having oxygen,

1580
01:09:25,760 --> 01:09:28,000
Speaker 1: it's how well you use it. So that now becomes

1581
01:09:28,160 --> 01:09:31,240
Speaker 1: your relationship with co too, Like the byproduct of what

1582
01:09:31,400 --> 01:09:33,360
Speaker 1: you burn. Like after you burn, the auction becomes combon

1583
01:09:33,360 --> 01:09:36,120
Speaker 1: to oxide, you achale it out and you can you

1584
01:09:36,200 --> 01:09:38,680
Speaker 1: can control and train that tolerance, so longer you can

1585
01:09:38,760 --> 01:09:41,080
Speaker 1: control higher levels of COE too. The longer you can work,

1586
01:09:41,280 --> 01:09:42,880
Speaker 1: and your VO two mex goes up, and now you

1587
01:09:42,920 --> 01:09:46,519
Speaker 1: can run longer. And like how like me and like

1588
01:09:46,600 --> 01:09:48,720
Speaker 1: my buddy Nate, after like that you keep the you

1589
01:09:48,880 --> 01:09:51,000
Speaker 1: keep the dark place away from you longer like you can.

1590
01:09:51,600 --> 01:09:54,439
Speaker 1: It's just like that mental giant like or that mental

1591
01:09:54,520 --> 01:09:56,160
Speaker 1: demon that comes on your shoulder like no, you're too

1592
01:09:56,240 --> 01:09:57,599
Speaker 1: tired and that kind of stuff, like you can keep

1593
01:09:57,640 --> 01:10:00,120
Speaker 1: that farther away. Yeah, So like that's kind of how

1594
01:10:00,160 --> 01:10:01,160
Speaker 1: we view it, right.

1595
01:10:01,080 --> 01:10:03,080
Speaker 2: Because I'm asking from a stance too, if like if

1596
01:10:03,200 --> 01:10:05,320
Speaker 2: if an athlete's like listening, like if you're just sitting

1597
01:10:05,360 --> 01:10:07,080
Speaker 2: there like just some meat hit like okay, why would

1598
01:10:07,080 --> 01:10:08,759
Speaker 2: I incorporate breathing into my stuff?

1599
01:10:08,880 --> 01:10:09,080
Speaker 1: Yeah?

1600
01:10:09,200 --> 01:10:11,000
Speaker 2: That's why I ask, Like a simple example that could

1601
01:10:11,040 --> 01:10:12,680
Speaker 2: make somebody think and be like yo, I should get

1602
01:10:12,720 --> 01:10:13,400
Speaker 2: curious about this.

1603
01:10:13,760 --> 01:10:17,719
Speaker 1: Yeah, going into performance, Yeah, it's just like even simpler.

1604
01:10:17,760 --> 01:10:20,040
Speaker 1: Look at it as MMA fighting, Like you see a

1605
01:10:20,080 --> 01:10:23,200
Speaker 1: guy you can tell when somebody's dead tired because their

1606
01:10:23,280 --> 01:10:27,000
Speaker 1: mouth breathing heavy body language shows it. Like the guys

1607
01:10:27,040 --> 01:10:29,320
Speaker 1: that are cool, calm and collected and bringing to their

1608
01:10:29,400 --> 01:10:31,639
Speaker 1: nose like they last longer. Like the goals to breathe

1609
01:10:31,760 --> 01:10:34,479
Speaker 1: less that the guy who breathes the least is probably

1610
01:10:34,520 --> 01:10:36,280
Speaker 1: gonna win. Like if you can't breathe, you can't fight.

1611
01:10:36,800 --> 01:10:38,760
Speaker 1: If you can't get auction to the muscle, you can't fight,

1612
01:10:38,920 --> 01:10:40,719
Speaker 1: Like if you can't run like your if your legs

1613
01:10:40,720 --> 01:10:44,400
Speaker 1: are dead, can't fight. And you can train your tolerance

1614
01:10:44,439 --> 01:10:46,120
Speaker 1: to that level of CO two that you build up

1615
01:10:46,120 --> 01:10:48,200
Speaker 1: in your legs or your arms or whatever body part

1616
01:10:48,240 --> 01:10:51,040
Speaker 1: you're using for your sport. So it's and it's something

1617
01:10:51,080 --> 01:10:52,760
Speaker 1: you can do without wearing a tear in the body.

1618
01:10:52,840 --> 01:10:54,599
Speaker 1: Like you don't have to go bang and run one

1619
01:10:54,680 --> 01:10:57,120
Speaker 1: hundred yard sprints all the time. Work in some breath work,

1620
01:10:57,160 --> 01:10:59,760
Speaker 1: get comfortable with higher levels of CO two with XO

1621
01:11:00,280 --> 01:11:03,719
Speaker 1: and things like that, and you can improve your aerublic capacity.

1622
01:11:03,800 --> 01:11:08,280
Speaker 1: It's been proven time and time and again. Yeah, that's awesome. Yeah,

1623
01:11:09,160 --> 01:11:11,560
Speaker 1: it's just a tool. Yeah, yeah, I know.

1624
01:11:11,640 --> 01:11:13,960
Speaker 2: For me, the book that you put me on was

1625
01:11:14,000 --> 01:11:16,360
Speaker 2: the oxygen advantage. If somebody was a start. Would that

1626
01:11:16,439 --> 01:11:18,880
Speaker 2: be the book you would put everybody on to start

1627
01:11:18,960 --> 01:11:23,000
Speaker 2: looking getting curious outside of obviously following at mindstream project

1628
01:11:23,680 --> 01:11:25,000
Speaker 2: and shouting out the minestron project.

1629
01:11:25,040 --> 01:11:27,120
Speaker 1: You guys actually have an app too, right, Yeah, we

1630
01:11:27,240 --> 01:11:29,439
Speaker 1: were also with this Kodjabi app. But yeah, so you

1631
01:11:29,800 --> 01:11:32,639
Speaker 1: can access and buy membership for monthly like breath coaching

1632
01:11:32,720 --> 01:11:34,679
Speaker 1: and some mobility work and primal stuff.

1633
01:11:34,840 --> 01:11:36,720
Speaker 2: So if people were interested in getting involved with the

1634
01:11:36,760 --> 01:11:38,040
Speaker 2: Minestrong project, where would they go?

1635
01:11:38,040 --> 01:11:41,320
Speaker 1: They would download the Kujabi app. Yeah, so they'll just

1636
01:11:41,400 --> 01:11:43,400
Speaker 1: go to the website and signs you up and it

1637
01:11:43,680 --> 01:11:45,759
Speaker 1: gives you all the instruct go to your guys' websit

1638
01:11:46,479 --> 01:11:48,559
Speaker 1: dot com and they'll send it take you care, take

1639
01:11:48,600 --> 01:11:49,280
Speaker 1: care of you from there.

1640
01:11:49,360 --> 01:11:52,760
Speaker 4: But yeah, but but some practical things you can do

1641
01:11:53,000 --> 01:11:54,760
Speaker 4: reading oxygen advantage.

1642
01:11:54,400 --> 01:11:56,479
Speaker 1: Yeah, that's like that's the place to start, because it

1643
01:11:56,840 --> 01:12:01,360
Speaker 1: breaks down like the oxygen co two relation about it, Yeah,

1644
01:12:01,439 --> 01:12:04,760
Speaker 1: the bore effect and then as far as like the

1645
01:12:04,840 --> 01:12:06,760
Speaker 1: taping your mouth at night. Like now, like if you

1646
01:12:06,840 --> 01:12:09,400
Speaker 1: look at it practically, like every breath helps or hurts you,

1647
01:12:09,840 --> 01:12:11,320
Speaker 1: so like if you breathe them through your mouth, that

1648
01:12:11,720 --> 01:12:14,559
Speaker 1: like the mouth breathing trigger is fighting fighting fighting flight

1649
01:12:14,680 --> 01:12:18,280
Speaker 1: is sympathetic nervous system. Nervous system triggers parasympathetic rest and

1650
01:12:18,320 --> 01:12:20,680
Speaker 1: digest So do you want to tell yourself all night

1651
01:12:20,720 --> 01:12:24,040
Speaker 1: while you're sleeping that you're safe or that you're fighting, Like,

1652
01:12:24,080 --> 01:12:26,080
Speaker 1: if you're fighting, you're not gonna get into that deep

1653
01:12:26,160 --> 01:12:27,720
Speaker 1: sleep consistently. Yeah.

1654
01:12:27,760 --> 01:12:29,479
Speaker 2: I know for me when I started taping my mouth

1655
01:12:29,520 --> 01:12:31,559
Speaker 2: shut due to you putting me on the auction page

1656
01:12:31,600 --> 01:12:32,160
Speaker 2: and tell me about it.

1657
01:12:32,240 --> 01:12:36,120
Speaker 1: Shut out the boy, But for me, like where my whoop?

1658
01:12:36,200 --> 01:12:36,760
Speaker 1: Where my whoop?

1659
01:12:36,760 --> 01:12:38,479
Speaker 2: When I go to sleep and everything, getting my like

1660
01:12:38,600 --> 01:12:42,320
Speaker 2: getting all the data back, the stats back the night after,

1661
01:12:43,080 --> 01:12:46,600
Speaker 2: my respiratory weight rate would go way down, my.

1662
01:12:48,080 --> 01:12:49,800
Speaker 1: Restling hardweight rate would go way down.

1663
01:12:49,840 --> 01:12:51,280
Speaker 2: I like I'd be in the fifties in the minute

1664
01:12:51,320 --> 01:12:53,639
Speaker 2: I started taping, I started getting in the high forties,

1665
01:12:53,640 --> 01:12:54,040
Speaker 2: and then after a.

1666
01:12:54,040 --> 01:12:56,120
Speaker 1: Few weeks I'm done in like the low forties. Savage.

1667
01:12:56,160 --> 01:12:58,360
Speaker 2: Obviously that goes with like workout routine and stuff like that,

1668
01:12:58,439 --> 01:13:00,880
Speaker 2: but this is something I'm consistently doing in anyway. So

1669
01:13:01,080 --> 01:13:03,679
Speaker 2: just the benefits that I was quickly seeing from taping

1670
01:13:03,760 --> 01:13:06,240
Speaker 2: my mouth shut at night and being conscious of the

1671
01:13:06,280 --> 01:13:08,200
Speaker 2: way I breathe throughout the day. Like I'll sit there

1672
01:13:08,200 --> 01:13:10,599
Speaker 2: and driving my truck or I'm driving in the nice

1673
01:13:10,680 --> 01:13:15,200
Speaker 2: Chevy Silverado, and uh, I'll just notice how I'm breathing.

1674
01:13:15,280 --> 01:13:17,360
Speaker 2: Like if my mind scrambled and I'm thinking about busting

1675
01:13:17,360 --> 01:13:19,599
Speaker 2: a lot and I'm thinking about whatever my next workout

1676
01:13:19,680 --> 01:13:22,200
Speaker 2: routine is, or juggling ball or just any of that stuff,

1677
01:13:22,520 --> 01:13:24,880
Speaker 2: I'll realize that my breasts are a little shorter, I'm

1678
01:13:24,880 --> 01:13:26,840
Speaker 2: in my chest a little bit more. I'm actually breathing

1679
01:13:26,840 --> 01:13:28,519
Speaker 2: a little bit more out of my mouth when I'm

1680
01:13:28,560 --> 01:13:29,599
Speaker 2: thinking about a lot of stuff.

1681
01:13:29,600 --> 01:13:30,880
Speaker 1: My head's full of jargon, for sure.

1682
01:13:31,240 --> 01:13:33,760
Speaker 2: And when you sit there and slowly and you start

1683
01:13:33,880 --> 01:13:36,240
Speaker 2: just being conscious about breathing through your nose, breathing, breathing

1684
01:13:36,280 --> 01:13:40,000
Speaker 2: into your stomach, it is crazy how much how much

1685
01:13:40,040 --> 01:13:41,040
Speaker 2: we're mouth breathers.

1686
01:13:41,120 --> 01:13:43,919
Speaker 1: Yeah, and it's but it's that first level of awareness

1687
01:13:44,000 --> 01:13:46,519
Speaker 1: you get, like so like like right the first time

1688
01:13:46,600 --> 01:13:48,559
Speaker 1: that I was at that conditioning day with the Texans,

1689
01:13:49,080 --> 01:13:51,320
Speaker 1: I heard people breathing for the first time, and I

1690
01:13:51,880 --> 01:13:53,960
Speaker 1: knew I wasn't breathing that hard. So I was like,

1691
01:13:53,960 --> 01:13:55,800
Speaker 1: all right, I'm cool, Like this is like I'm about

1692
01:13:55,800 --> 01:13:57,760
Speaker 1: to bury the Yeah yeah, and like that's weakness, like

1693
01:13:57,920 --> 01:13:59,760
Speaker 1: and and fighters see the same thing. You see a

1694
01:13:59,760 --> 01:14:02,720
Speaker 1: guy dog tired, mouth breathing, like all right, blood in

1695
01:14:02,760 --> 01:14:05,880
Speaker 1: the heat off, yeah, blood in the water. He says,

Speaker 1: All the time. He just I thought Connor looked good.

1701
01:14:19,920 --> 01:14:23,080
Speaker 1: And obviously yeah, clearly.

1702
01:14:22,800 --> 01:14:25,080
Speaker 4: He was nasal breathing because he got up swinging.

1703
01:14:26,240 --> 01:14:28,840
Speaker 1: So you were Connor and he was poor. Yeah, yeah,

Speaker 2: Listening to any any of that stuff that he's talked about,

1747
01:16:49,640 --> 01:16:51,720
Speaker 2: does any of the boys have any questions about his

1748
01:16:51,840 --> 01:16:54,320
Speaker 2: journey or any of that that breathing shit.

1749
01:16:54,920 --> 01:16:57,240
Speaker 3: Yeah, well just to comment, like, as y'all started talking

1750
01:16:57,280 --> 01:16:59,559
Speaker 3: about it more, I started noticing myself.

1751
01:16:59,560 --> 01:17:01,400
Speaker 1: I'm like, I'm about to just breathe through my nose.

1752
01:17:01,520 --> 01:17:04,040
Speaker 1: There you go, And then like five minutes later, I'm like,

1753
01:17:04,280 --> 01:17:08,800
Speaker 1: oh my god, yeah, breath Well there's more resistance there

1754
01:17:08,840 --> 01:17:11,439
Speaker 1: through the nose initially, but like also the nasal cavity

1755
01:17:11,479 --> 01:17:13,200
Speaker 1: is like if you don't use it, you lose it things,

1756
01:17:13,240 --> 01:17:15,360
Speaker 1: So you have to keep sending stimulus there to open

1757
01:17:15,439 --> 01:17:17,840
Speaker 1: up the nasal cavity. If your mouth breathing and a

1758
01:17:17,880 --> 01:17:19,800
Speaker 1: lot of things trigger mouth breeding. If you eat like shit,

1759
01:17:20,400 --> 01:17:22,840
Speaker 1: like your stomach is solving a problem, it needs more

1760
01:17:22,880 --> 01:17:26,200
Speaker 1: auction to solve a problem. Like oxygen is an anti bacterial,

1761
01:17:26,240 --> 01:17:28,839
Speaker 1: anti viral too. It's just a lot of things compound

1762
01:17:28,880 --> 01:17:30,400
Speaker 1: into it, and you can solve a lot of your

1763
01:17:30,439 --> 01:17:31,360
Speaker 1: problems with your breath.

1764
01:17:32,439 --> 01:17:35,840
Speaker 3: Yeah, okay, no, I was gonna ask about these ice

1765
01:17:35,920 --> 01:17:37,559
Speaker 3: bats too that we've been looking at.

1766
01:17:37,600 --> 01:17:39,559
Speaker 1: Oh yeah, gid y up. Oh bro, this is my man.

1767
01:17:39,680 --> 01:17:42,240
Speaker 2: Brian will walk out into the wilderness frozen, whether he's

1768
01:17:42,240 --> 01:17:45,479
Speaker 2: in Alaska, Montana, anywhere up north. He'll find a laker

1769
01:17:45,640 --> 01:17:48,360
Speaker 2: river nearby, frozen on top. He'll bring a shovel, he'll

1770
01:17:48,400 --> 01:17:50,640
Speaker 2: bring a pick axe, he'll chop a hole into it,

1771
01:17:51,040 --> 01:17:53,960
Speaker 2: and you'll go and sit in this cold ass fucking yep.

1772
01:17:54,640 --> 01:17:55,200
Speaker 1: Yeah it's finny.

1773
01:17:55,280 --> 01:17:57,839
Speaker 2: So yeah, the cold shit like look up cold shower benefits.

1774
01:17:57,880 --> 01:18:00,760
Speaker 2: That's small stuff. But this this, you do this shit,

1775
01:18:00,800 --> 01:18:02,960
Speaker 2: I'm like, yo, you're just on a completely different level

1776
01:18:03,000 --> 01:18:03,880
Speaker 2: with this cold therapy.

1777
01:18:04,560 --> 01:18:07,920
Speaker 1: Yeah, for sure, yeah, like yeah, for sure. So like

1778
01:18:08,160 --> 01:18:10,320
Speaker 1: we like with mindstrong, we use it as a tool,

1779
01:18:10,560 --> 01:18:13,240
Speaker 1: Like how can we put you in a stressful environment

1780
01:18:13,439 --> 01:18:15,760
Speaker 1: and show you that breath work is a tool. So

1781
01:18:15,960 --> 01:18:17,840
Speaker 1: like the first we'll put you in the ice, which

1782
01:18:17,880 --> 01:18:19,960
Speaker 1: is like what we call that, like our stadium, like

1783
01:18:20,240 --> 01:18:22,720
Speaker 1: a stadium with eighty thousand people with music bumping and you,

1784
01:18:22,880 --> 01:18:25,400
Speaker 1: responsibility and eyes on you, like attention. All those things

1785
01:18:25,439 --> 01:18:27,599
Speaker 1: are stressors. So that's the only stress that we can

1786
01:18:27,720 --> 01:18:30,400
Speaker 1: make similar to that. So we'll put you in there,

1787
01:18:30,439 --> 01:18:32,320
Speaker 1: and like a lot of people's first response is a

1788
01:18:32,360 --> 01:18:35,559
Speaker 1: short shut like that, and like that's a problem. That's

1789
01:18:35,640 --> 01:18:37,360
Speaker 1: not a tool, Like you're hurting yourself. So like we

1790
01:18:37,520 --> 01:18:40,040
Speaker 1: we'll teach you again the relationship, how to dump CO

1791
01:18:40,360 --> 01:18:43,080
Speaker 1: two so that the next breath, the auction gets in,

1792
01:18:43,360 --> 01:18:45,840
Speaker 1: calms the system gets to the cell. And so now

1793
01:18:46,000 --> 01:18:47,519
Speaker 1: like the breasts a tool to beat the cold, to

1794
01:18:47,560 --> 01:18:49,880
Speaker 1: beat the stress, and you can use that in a stadium,

1795
01:18:49,880 --> 01:18:51,160
Speaker 1: you can use that in the ice. You knew all

1796
01:18:51,200 --> 01:18:53,240
Speaker 1: the things, but like it's just yeah, like if you

1797
01:18:53,520 --> 01:18:55,879
Speaker 1: if you can't breathe an environment, you can't own the environment.

1798
01:18:56,080 --> 01:18:57,519
Speaker 1: If you can't breathe in a position you can't own

1799
01:18:57,560 --> 01:18:59,400
Speaker 1: the positions the same in weightlifting and that kind of thing.

1800
01:18:59,760 --> 01:19:02,920
Speaker 1: But no, like the honestly, like the reason I love

1801
01:19:03,200 --> 01:19:06,360
Speaker 1: the the ice so much is it's forced meditation for me. Like,

1802
01:19:06,720 --> 01:19:08,559
Speaker 1: like ice sucks every time. It doesn't matter how many

1803
01:19:08,600 --> 01:19:10,400
Speaker 1: times I've done it that nobody wants. The hardest part

1804
01:19:10,439 --> 01:19:12,120
Speaker 1: is like the thirty seconds before you get in that thing.

1805
01:19:12,200 --> 01:19:14,360
Speaker 2: You no question, I'll wake up, tell myself, I'm gonna

1806
01:19:14,400 --> 01:19:16,000
Speaker 2: hit a cold shower the next morning, I'll wake up.

1807
01:19:16,600 --> 01:19:18,800
Speaker 4: Yeah, but you're start turning it up to that heat.

1808
01:19:19,120 --> 01:19:20,800
Speaker 1: Yeah, but you're fine when you get in though, Like

1809
01:19:20,960 --> 01:19:23,240
Speaker 1: it's not it's not the end of the world every time, like, but.

1810
01:19:23,439 --> 01:19:24,840
Speaker 4: For sure, but when you get in, you're little you know,

1811
01:19:24,880 --> 01:19:26,799
Speaker 4: you're a little cold, you're a little naked, you're a little.

1812
01:19:26,560 --> 01:19:28,360
Speaker 1: Afraid, you know right when you.

1813
01:19:30,600 --> 01:19:32,760
Speaker 2: Know, when you turn that when you turn that knob, dude,

1814
01:19:32,800 --> 01:19:35,880
Speaker 2: and that cold just hit you. Yeah, it's just but yeah,

1815
01:19:35,920 --> 01:19:37,280
Speaker 2: once you get past, yeah for sure.

1816
01:19:37,320 --> 01:19:40,040
Speaker 1: But like and like there's not a crazy soup and

1817
01:19:40,080 --> 01:19:43,439
Speaker 1: amount of benefits to the ice by itself because it's

1818
01:19:43,439 --> 01:19:45,200
Speaker 1: like a vaso constrictor and that kind of thing. But

1819
01:19:45,320 --> 01:19:47,839
Speaker 1: like you get the uh, the focus and the awakeness

1820
01:19:47,880 --> 01:19:49,519
Speaker 1: from the narrow up and nefferent hit and that kind

1821
01:19:49,520 --> 01:19:51,760
Speaker 1: of thing. And it's it's also like it's like making

1822
01:19:51,800 --> 01:19:53,680
Speaker 1: your bed, like it's something you don't want to do,

1823
01:19:53,760 --> 01:19:55,400
Speaker 1: but you should do it. Start shut yourself out with

1824
01:19:55,439 --> 01:19:58,200
Speaker 1: some accomplishment, that kind of thing. But like, but like

1825
01:19:58,280 --> 01:20:00,200
Speaker 1: the three minutes and the ice, especially in nature, just

1826
01:20:00,280 --> 01:20:02,680
Speaker 1: like forced meditation, like I'm not anywhere else, I'm there.

1827
01:20:03,120 --> 01:20:05,720
Speaker 1: I'm focusing on my breath and and it's chilling. Then

1828
01:20:05,760 --> 01:20:07,600
Speaker 1: once you get out, like your your numb anyways, like

1829
01:20:07,640 --> 01:20:09,320
Speaker 1: getting your legs and the cold type your legs numb

1830
01:20:09,400 --> 01:20:11,240
Speaker 1: up and you don't feel anything after a minute anyways,

1831
01:20:11,680 --> 01:20:13,360
Speaker 1: So you'll get out from there and I'll do some

1832
01:20:13,439 --> 01:20:14,200
Speaker 1: breath work after.

1833
01:20:14,080 --> 01:20:15,880
Speaker 2: I get out of But I mean you're sitting in

1834
01:20:15,880 --> 01:20:18,360
Speaker 2: their neck up, yeah, neck up, Like what kind of

1835
01:20:18,400 --> 01:20:20,759
Speaker 2: benefit do you have from that cold water immersion?

1836
01:20:20,880 --> 01:20:22,439
Speaker 1: It's just more you know what I'm saying, you're kind

1837
01:20:22,439 --> 01:20:22,920
Speaker 1: of you're.

1838
01:20:22,880 --> 01:20:24,800
Speaker 2: Kind of like just going over it, saying there's not

1839
01:20:24,840 --> 01:20:27,640
Speaker 2: a lot of there's not tremendous benefit, but there is

1840
01:20:27,760 --> 01:20:28,439
Speaker 2: in cold water.

1841
01:20:28,560 --> 01:20:31,080
Speaker 1: Yeah for sure. Yeah. Yeah, So obviously one the first

1842
01:20:31,120 --> 01:20:34,519
Speaker 1: you control the breath. It's like it's an immune system booster,

1843
01:20:35,520 --> 01:20:38,640
Speaker 1: but like it's it's literally like again, like I just

1844
01:20:38,720 --> 01:20:41,000
Speaker 1: call it forced meditation. Like but like so now if

1845
01:20:41,040 --> 01:20:42,800
Speaker 1: you if you, if you want to get deeper into it,

1846
01:20:42,840 --> 01:20:43,880
Speaker 1: I don't know how deep you want to get to,

1847
01:20:43,960 --> 01:20:46,120
Speaker 1: like the cold chalk and heat chop proteins. But like

1848
01:20:46,240 --> 01:20:49,320
Speaker 1: I primarily use ice now as a contrast on a

1849
01:20:49,400 --> 01:20:52,280
Speaker 1: recovery day, gotcha, And then like I'll use it like

1850
01:20:52,360 --> 01:20:54,360
Speaker 1: cold chower to wake up in a cold chower, to

1851
01:20:54,360 --> 01:20:56,040
Speaker 1: go to bed to get my body temperature down.

1852
01:20:56,240 --> 01:20:58,920
Speaker 2: What kind of recovery methods do you use, like with

1853
01:20:59,040 --> 01:21:02,400
Speaker 2: hot cold cold? I do the sauna, So explain what?

1854
01:21:02,600 --> 01:21:04,439
Speaker 1: Yeah there, yeah, so like that's where you see some

1855
01:21:04,560 --> 01:21:07,439
Speaker 1: crazy benefits and it's like it's a great flush recovery.

1856
01:21:08,160 --> 01:21:10,640
Speaker 1: But so you start three minutes in the cold, you

1857
01:21:10,720 --> 01:21:12,519
Speaker 1: get a heavy sweat, try and get your heart right

1858
01:21:12,600 --> 01:21:14,400
Speaker 1: up above one twenty in the sauna, get a good

1859
01:21:14,439 --> 01:21:16,880
Speaker 1: sweat gone, another three minutes in the cold, you'll go

1860
01:21:17,000 --> 01:21:17,439
Speaker 1: neck up.

1861
01:21:17,320 --> 01:21:19,160
Speaker 2: In the cold, right yep, every time, and then you'll

1862
01:21:19,200 --> 01:21:21,080
Speaker 2: go straight from the cold, you'll get in the hot sauna.

1863
01:21:21,400 --> 01:21:24,320
Speaker 1: A traditional sauna are we talking in for it traditional sauna.

1864
01:21:24,320 --> 01:21:25,040
Speaker 1: They give a little hot.

1865
01:21:27,560 --> 01:21:29,640
Speaker 2: Like two ten, and then you'll try to work up

1866
01:21:29,680 --> 01:21:31,600
Speaker 2: get your heart rate up over one twenty. So for

1867
01:21:31,680 --> 01:21:33,200
Speaker 2: how long do you get in the sauna?

1868
01:21:33,240 --> 01:21:35,360
Speaker 1: The saunas like it depends on the temperature, Like it's

1869
01:21:35,360 --> 01:21:36,840
Speaker 1: two hundred, you can get you can be out in

1870
01:21:36,920 --> 01:21:39,240
Speaker 1: fifteen minutes. If not, it bleeds on a little longer.

1871
01:21:39,400 --> 01:21:42,000
Speaker 1: And everybody's different too, everybody responds to the heat differently.

1872
01:21:42,520 --> 01:21:45,200
Speaker 1: So but so it's three rounds, so three three touches

1873
01:21:45,200 --> 01:21:46,719
Speaker 1: of the ice. But the last round of the ice

1874
01:21:46,800 --> 01:21:48,880
Speaker 1: is just uh usually just a dunk or like a

1875
01:21:48,960 --> 01:21:51,840
Speaker 1: dunk and hold your breath underwater under the ice tub

1876
01:21:51,880 --> 01:21:53,360
Speaker 1: for a little bit. Do you finish in the ice?

1877
01:21:53,600 --> 01:21:55,040
Speaker 1: You finish in the ice for recovery. But like the

1878
01:21:55,080 --> 01:21:58,080
Speaker 1: big thing there is like what people don't realize is

1879
01:21:58,120 --> 01:21:59,880
Speaker 1: it's it turns into a workout. Like some of our

1880
01:22:00,000 --> 01:22:02,759
Speaker 1: hockey guys will burn like seven to nine hundred calories

1881
01:22:02,800 --> 01:22:05,439
Speaker 1: sit like going because usually the cycle takes around an hour.

1882
01:22:05,920 --> 01:22:08,200
Speaker 1: And these guys like like again, where you burn a

1883
01:22:08,240 --> 01:22:10,439
Speaker 1: lot of your calories is your cardiovascular system and you

1884
01:22:10,520 --> 01:22:12,360
Speaker 1: have all these little muscles on like the veins and

1885
01:22:12,439 --> 01:22:15,760
Speaker 1: arteries that vaso constrict vasodilite heart rate gets up in

1886
01:22:15,800 --> 01:22:17,800
Speaker 1: the heat. Then you get back in vaso constrict and

1887
01:22:17,840 --> 01:22:20,080
Speaker 1: you're working these little muscles and you end up burning.

1888
01:22:20,120 --> 01:22:22,679
Speaker 1: Like it taxes your nervous system, but like you'll sleep

1889
01:22:22,800 --> 01:22:25,080
Speaker 1: like a baby after it. It's phenomenal. And then then

1890
01:22:25,120 --> 01:22:28,280
Speaker 1: you're also like you're killing weak cells like like the cold,

1891
01:22:28,360 --> 01:22:30,400
Speaker 1: like the cold shock proteins, heat chark proteins. Just start

1892
01:22:30,640 --> 01:22:34,200
Speaker 1: becoming like a tougher human to kill. Yeah, yeah, a

1893
01:22:34,280 --> 01:22:37,240
Speaker 1: tougher human to kill. I mean you get the juice flowing, right,

1894
01:22:38,200 --> 01:22:39,840
Speaker 1: but now there's yeah, but now there's like all these

1895
01:22:40,000 --> 01:22:43,080
Speaker 1: life metaphors and all this like primal step back where

1896
01:22:43,160 --> 01:22:45,200
Speaker 1: like we're not meant to live in ac We're not

1897
01:22:45,240 --> 01:22:47,120
Speaker 1: supposed to go from seventy degrees in our house to

1898
01:22:47,200 --> 01:22:49,160
Speaker 1: our car to work to our car and home. Like

1899
01:22:49,280 --> 01:22:51,200
Speaker 1: we have energy systems in our body to fight the

1900
01:22:51,280 --> 01:22:53,080
Speaker 1: cold and the heat, but we don't use them anymore.

1901
01:22:53,479 --> 01:22:55,760
Speaker 1: So like where does that energy system go? Like some

1902
01:22:55,880 --> 01:22:58,400
Speaker 1: people say it's like the autoimmune diseases, whatever the hell,

1903
01:22:58,479 --> 01:23:01,960
Speaker 1: but like that's all here's but like like it makes

1904
01:23:02,040 --> 01:23:04,920
Speaker 1: you more comfortable in extreme environment, So why would you

1905
01:23:05,000 --> 01:23:09,439
Speaker 1: not train yourself that way? Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, but.

1906
01:23:09,760 --> 01:23:12,880
Speaker 2: Practically just to get this recovery method out there. Three

1907
01:23:12,920 --> 01:23:15,880
Speaker 2: minutes in the ice neck up yep, fifteen minutes probably

1908
01:23:15,960 --> 01:23:19,360
Speaker 2: around fifteen minutes in the sauna, three minutes again in

1909
01:23:19,400 --> 01:23:21,320
Speaker 2: the ice neck up yep. Fifteen to twenty in the

1910
01:23:21,360 --> 01:23:23,960
Speaker 2: sauna again yep, and then you'll land what's just completely

1911
01:23:23,960 --> 01:23:25,960
Speaker 2: immerging yourself to a breath hole under water, Just take

1912
01:23:26,000 --> 01:23:28,040
Speaker 2: a dip fully in yep, and then you'll get out.

1913
01:23:28,120 --> 01:23:30,200
Speaker 1: Yeah, and dude, you'll like something like some people feel

1914
01:23:30,280 --> 01:23:32,479
Speaker 1: high after like you like, it's just like a really

1915
01:23:32,560 --> 01:23:34,479
Speaker 1: cool feeling. Dude, it's a you gotta feel it.

1916
01:23:34,760 --> 01:23:38,160
Speaker 2: The Ben Greenfield, his one would be uh, his one

1917
01:23:38,320 --> 01:23:41,360
Speaker 2: was like fifteen minutes in the in the heat, five

1918
01:23:41,400 --> 01:23:43,920
Speaker 2: minutes in the cold, fit in the basically three rounds

1919
01:23:43,920 --> 01:23:46,160
Speaker 2: and you would end on a cold shower. Yeah, so similar,

1920
01:23:46,240 --> 01:23:47,800
Speaker 2: the same kind of thing. Yeah, and doing it in

1921
01:23:47,840 --> 01:23:50,040
Speaker 2: training camp especially all like on an off day, bro,

1922
01:23:50,200 --> 01:23:53,360
Speaker 2: you do feel incredible.

1923
01:23:52,520 --> 01:23:54,840
Speaker 1: All that Like that pump you're getting in your veins

1924
01:23:54,880 --> 01:23:57,360
Speaker 1: and arteries and stuff, it like flushes out your soreness.

1925
01:23:57,400 --> 01:23:59,280
Speaker 1: I got like I tweak my back dead lifting the

1926
01:23:59,360 --> 01:24:01,479
Speaker 1: other day and like I'd hit my son and ice

1927
01:24:01,520 --> 01:24:04,760
Speaker 1: and like it starts. There's a noticeable difference between before

1928
01:24:04,800 --> 01:24:07,040
Speaker 1: and now. Noticeable. It's crazy, it does.

1929
01:24:07,160 --> 01:24:09,439
Speaker 2: It feels really good when like you know, you drop

1930
01:24:09,479 --> 01:24:11,560
Speaker 2: when when we'll drop our stones and actually do the

1931
01:24:11,600 --> 01:24:14,720
Speaker 2: cold water submersion like for real, because sometimes you're just like, fuck,

1932
01:24:14,760 --> 01:24:16,720
Speaker 2: I'm not just trying to get I'm not trying to

1933
01:24:16,920 --> 01:24:18,519
Speaker 2: completely emerge myself underwater.

1934
01:24:18,760 --> 01:24:19,559
Speaker 1: Yeah you know what I mean.

1935
01:24:19,600 --> 01:24:21,519
Speaker 2: Because we'll like stand in the cold tub, like Taylor,

1936
01:24:21,560 --> 01:24:23,320
Speaker 2: we call ourselves like account of Bill buddies back in

1937
01:24:23,400 --> 01:24:25,719
Speaker 2: like eighteen when we were on the Titans uh together

1938
01:24:25,960 --> 01:24:28,280
Speaker 2: even this year too though before you know he had

1939
01:24:28,280 --> 01:24:30,960
Speaker 2: his acl But you know, you go from the sauna.

1940
01:24:31,360 --> 01:24:33,280
Speaker 2: But in COVID this year the saunas were shut down

1941
01:24:33,320 --> 01:24:36,560
Speaker 2: so you couldn't activate those facilities. But when we do it,

1942
01:24:36,680 --> 01:24:38,439
Speaker 2: you'd sit there and be in the sauna together and

1943
01:24:38,479 --> 01:24:39,760
Speaker 2: then you'd be in the cold tub and you back, hey,

1944
01:24:39,760 --> 01:24:41,800
Speaker 2: are you gonna go under water? Yeah, like I don't know,

1945
01:24:41,920 --> 01:24:44,040
Speaker 2: not today man, And then you just emerge yourself down

1946
01:24:44,040 --> 01:24:45,800
Speaker 2: in the cold water. You get in like the steam room.

1947
01:24:45,960 --> 01:24:49,640
Speaker 2: But you do you feel absolutely incredible? Yeah, do we

1948
01:24:49,680 --> 01:24:52,679
Speaker 2: have anything else, And then you also touch on there's

1949
01:24:52,720 --> 01:24:53,400

01:24:53,640 --> 01:24:54,320
Speaker 1: How long we went?

1951
01:24:55,040 --> 01:24:57,599
Speaker 5: Uh, you're at an hour and twenty six minutes.

1952
01:24:58,080 --> 01:25:00,679
Speaker 4: Time flies when you're having fun, boy, I was gonna

1953
01:25:00,880 --> 01:25:01,599
Speaker 4: you've been rolling.

1954
01:25:01,880 --> 01:25:05,200
Speaker 5: I was gonna ask about so, you know, like chiropractors

1955
01:25:05,240 --> 01:25:07,920
Speaker 5: and stuff like that, the like I guess you can

1956
01:25:07,960 --> 01:25:10,040
Speaker 5: get your nose adjusted or you can open up your

1957
01:25:10,439 --> 01:25:12,759
Speaker 5: your airways. Have you seen that done with like the balloon?

1958
01:25:13,000 --> 01:25:15,360
Speaker 1: Yeah, a little bit. I haven't done it myself, so

1959
01:25:15,400 --> 01:25:15,840
Speaker 1: I can't like.

1960
01:25:15,880 --> 01:25:17,479
Speaker 4: Are you not a chiropractor guy? The way you kind

1961
01:25:17,479 --> 01:25:18,280
Speaker 4: of just chuckled right there.

1962
01:25:18,400 --> 01:25:23,040
Speaker 1: No, I'm you know chiropractice. I was just I was intrigued.

1963
01:25:23,080 --> 01:25:25,640
Speaker 1: I was intrigued at the next step on that that conversation.

1964
01:25:26,560 --> 01:25:28,800
Speaker 1: Now I've done more like the TMJ work where they

1965
01:25:28,880 --> 01:25:30,800
Speaker 1: like adjust like the fashon around your jaw and like

1966
01:25:30,880 --> 01:25:32,960
Speaker 1: inside your mouth and your tongue and stuff. That stuff

1967
01:25:32,960 --> 01:25:34,240
Speaker 1: I think works fantastically.

1968
01:25:34,320 --> 01:25:37,080
Speaker 2: But no, Taylor's alluded to doing something like that, like

1969
01:25:37,400 --> 01:25:39,760
Speaker 2: stuff inside of his mouth and yeah, ship to where

1970
01:25:39,800 --> 01:25:41,760
Speaker 2: he'll like move his hand like just do some like

1971
01:25:41,920 --> 01:25:43,360
Speaker 2: uh just weird kind of ship.

1972
01:25:43,560 --> 01:25:46,160
Speaker 1: Yeah, like your fashion pattern starts in the mouth, so

1973
01:25:46,240 --> 01:25:47,960
Speaker 1: like it's a good place to start. Then I have

1974
01:25:48,080 --> 01:25:50,760
Speaker 1: my jaw obviously, so I constantly like just like kind

1975
01:25:50,800 --> 01:25:53,439
Speaker 1: of RPR through my like my fashion, my neck and stuff.

1976
01:25:53,439 --> 01:25:54,920
Speaker 1: So like you just find a bunch of sore spots.

1977

Speaker 1: the body is malleable, like you like you can improve it.

2022

Speaker 2: and touching sensitive spots on your jaw.

2025
01:28:19,720 --> 01:28:22,240
Speaker 1: There was a so was doctor Serrano.

2026

Speaker 2: There was like like that that dog whistle sound, you

2027
01:28:26,600 --> 01:28:28,519
Speaker 2: know what I mean, like depending like the supersonic sound

2028
01:28:28,520 --> 01:28:29,880
Speaker 2: I would get in my ear every now and then

2029
01:28:29,920 --> 01:28:31,320
Speaker 2: it would just like come and go to where I'd

2030
01:28:31,360 --> 01:28:33,560
Speaker 2: be like death for a second. I'd hear like the

2031
01:28:33,640 --> 01:28:35,360
Speaker 2: super sounding noise kind of come through my ear to

2032
01:28:35,400 --> 01:28:36,599
Speaker 2: bring the sound back in my ear.

2033
01:28:37,439 --> 01:28:40,160
Speaker 4: And I was obviously nervous about it, like yeah, what

2034
01:28:40,240 --> 01:28:40,880
Speaker 4: the fuck's going on?

2035
01:28:41,040 --> 01:28:43,240
Speaker 2: And wondering if there's like you know, the first thing

2036
01:28:43,280 --> 01:28:45,200
Speaker 2: you think of as a full players like brain stuff

2037
01:28:45,400 --> 01:28:47,960
Speaker 2: or like CTE and ship like that reaching out to

2038
01:28:48,000 --> 01:28:50,320
Speaker 2: Serrano and he's talking, He's sending me videos like working

2039
01:28:50,400 --> 01:28:52,400
Speaker 2: my jaw out and stuff, and I mean.

2040
01:28:52,760 --> 01:28:54,840
Speaker 1: It didn't work. It didn't work.

2041
01:28:54,960 --> 01:28:57,599
Speaker 2: It did work because I was this was happening probably

2042
01:28:57,720 --> 01:28:59,680
Speaker 2: a few times a week, and it was kind of

2043
01:28:59,720 --> 01:29:02,680
Speaker 2: starting scare me a little bit. And uh, you know,

2044
01:29:02,760 --> 01:29:07,040
Speaker 2: obviously doctor Serrouno, he's just a mad scientist. Yeah, went away,

2045
01:29:07,120 --> 01:29:08,920
Speaker 2: But this shit is crazy, Like all this stuff that

2046
01:29:08,920 --> 01:29:11,559
Speaker 2: we're sitting here talking about. Hopefully people are still tuned

2047
01:29:11,600 --> 01:29:13,920
Speaker 2: in and like juiced up about it. Like me, if

2048
01:29:13,960 --> 01:29:15,840
Speaker 2: I'm hearing this kind of stuff on the podcast, I'm

2049
01:29:15,920 --> 01:29:17,840
Speaker 2: so locked in. It's got me like reading whatever. Like

2050
01:29:17,880 --> 01:29:20,080
Speaker 2: when I when we refer to oxygen advantage, like the

2051
01:29:20,120 --> 01:29:22,840
Speaker 2: shit's already bought. Like that's usually how like I work.

2052
01:29:22,880 --> 01:29:24,800
Speaker 2: If I hear something, I get super curious about it.

2053
01:29:25,080 --> 01:29:26,680
Speaker 2: I'm like ready to go all in on trying to

2054
01:29:26,720 --> 01:29:29,160
Speaker 2: figure it out. Because like you with the podcast, you're

2055
01:29:29,200 --> 01:29:31,920
Speaker 2: being called chasing edges, like you're finding these edges you're

2056
01:29:31,960 --> 01:29:34,160
Speaker 2: trying to like chase and just be better. Yeah, you're

2057
01:29:34,160 --> 01:29:36,400
Speaker 2: trying to, like, yo, that'll make this seems like it'll

2058
01:29:36,400 --> 01:29:38,280
Speaker 2: make me a better athlete or perform better. Like I

2059
01:29:38,360 --> 01:29:39,800
Speaker 2: need to fucking do it because that's like the one

2060
01:29:39,800 --> 01:29:40,559
Speaker 2: percent I can get.

2061
01:29:40,479 --> 01:29:42,120
Speaker 1: Better, yeah guaranteed, And I just want to like that.

2062
01:29:42,400 --> 01:29:44,160
Speaker 1: Like like that got started back when I was like

2063
01:29:44,200 --> 01:29:46,519
Speaker 1: in the arena ball is like like I need an

2064
01:29:46,640 --> 01:29:48,280
Speaker 1: edge like it. So eventually I was like to keep

2065
01:29:48,320 --> 01:29:50,320
Speaker 1: chasing edges and I found more things to improve on,

2066
01:29:50,680 --> 01:29:52,240
Speaker 1: and now I just want to know, like what all

2067
01:29:52,240 --> 01:29:55,280
Speaker 1: these other athletes and doctors are doing just to optimize performance,

2068
01:29:55,320 --> 01:29:58,439
Speaker 1: because like I think, like competition like breeds this really

2069
01:29:58,520 --> 01:30:00,920
Speaker 1: cool curiosity to be the best. Yeah, So like guys

2070
01:30:00,960 --> 01:30:03,680
Speaker 1: are doing again, they're they're searching pep tides, They're doing

2071
01:30:03,760 --> 01:30:06,360
Speaker 1: something like they're supplements, news, types of training. You got

2072
01:30:06,400 --> 01:30:09,120
Speaker 1: the pool training. Now you see uh Atasanya, the the

2073
01:30:09,240 --> 01:30:13,040
Speaker 1: UFC fighter doing the breath work and the yeah yeah yeah.

2074
01:30:13,080 --> 01:30:14,920
Speaker 1: So you get guys just like pushing the edge of

2075
01:30:15,000 --> 01:30:17,320
Speaker 1: performance and like but then like you got some guys

2076
01:30:17,360 --> 01:30:19,720
Speaker 1: that just stick to these fundamentals, like they're like their

2077
01:30:19,760 --> 01:30:22,560
Speaker 1: mental performances, like their ability and their wit and like

2078
01:30:22,640 --> 01:30:25,040
Speaker 1: their work ethic keep them there. Like like I had

2079
01:30:25,160 --> 01:30:27,800
Speaker 1: Nate Ebner on as one of my first guests, and

2080
01:30:28,240 --> 01:30:32,920
Speaker 1: his mental framework is just ungodly when you say mental framework,

2081
01:30:33,000 --> 01:30:35,120
Speaker 1: Like what do you mean, Like just how he approaches

2082
01:30:35,400 --> 01:30:40,040
Speaker 1: doing his job, Like what's non negotiable, how he eliminates distraction,

2083
01:30:40,360 --> 01:30:42,760
Speaker 1: Like some distractions like the register in my mind, don't

2084
01:30:42,760 --> 01:30:45,120
Speaker 1: even register in his Like he just like he is

2085
01:30:45,200 --> 01:30:47,160
Speaker 1: the definition of a pro that has the ability to

2086
01:30:47,400 --> 01:30:50,960

2088
01:30:52,720 --> 01:30:54,760

2142
01:33:39,000 --> 01:33:43,200
Speaker 1: roots supplements, anything and everything like breath work, meditation. It

2143
01:33:43,280 --> 01:33:45,080
Speaker 1: goes down all the rabbit holes and he does he

2144
01:33:45,160 --> 01:33:46,840
Speaker 1: did a lot of like heavy lifting for everybody to

2145
01:33:46,920 --> 01:33:48,120
Speaker 1: have this amount.

2146
01:33:47,800 --> 01:33:50,040
Speaker 2: Of exactly he's done the like he's went down those

2147
01:33:50,120 --> 01:33:53,599
Speaker 2: dark alleys to find all this information that's accessible to everybody.

2148
01:33:53,680 --> 01:33:55,720

2149
01:33:55,800 --> 01:33:57,720
Speaker 1: just put his efforts into that. So that's dope. But

2150
01:33:57,800 --> 01:34:02,000
Speaker 1: like that stuff is just regardless if I'm playing football

2151
01:34:02,080 --> 01:34:03,920
