So it was you Spiel. 41 00:01:52,600 --> 00:01:52,840 Speaker 1: Yeah. 42 00:01:52,840 --> 00:01:54,400 Speaker 2: Who were the main characters. 43 00:01:54,600 --> 00:01:59,480 Speaker 1: It was Josh Bridges, No, Josh everettsh Everett. Then there 44 00:01:59,520 --> 00:02:03,120 Speaker 1: was my Dutch and then there was another dude who 45 00:02:03,200 --> 00:02:04,760 Speaker 1: I can't remember his name. 46 00:02:05,200 --> 00:02:07,000 Speaker 2: Fitzgerald, James Fitzgerald. Was he in there? 47 00:02:07,200 --> 00:02:09,960 Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, opt OPT. And then then there was another 48 00:02:09,960 --> 00:02:11,240 Speaker 1: guy but I can't remember his name. 49 00:02:11,280 --> 00:02:13,480 Speaker 2: I didn't realize you were just doing it to do it, 50 00:02:13,560 --> 00:02:14,799 Speaker 2: not that you were like. 51 00:02:16,680 --> 00:02:19,000 Speaker 1: I had a lot of into that. It's had a 52 00:02:19,040 --> 00:02:21,960 Speaker 1: lot of ego. I was like, no, it was. 53 00:02:23,600 --> 00:02:23,840 Speaker 2: Man. 54 00:02:23,880 --> 00:02:26,360 Speaker 1: So I was living in Newport Beach and I used 55 00:02:26,400 --> 00:02:28,440 Speaker 1: to train an athletes's performance which was up in Carson, 56 00:02:28,840 --> 00:02:30,680 Speaker 1: and so anybody it's from LA knows it's like. 57 00:02:30,720 --> 00:02:31,120 Speaker 2: Not very far. 58 00:02:31,160 --> 00:02:33,480 Speaker 1: It's probably about nineteen or twenty miles. It could be 59 00:02:33,520 --> 00:02:35,480 Speaker 1: thirty minutes or it could be four hours. So I 60 00:02:35,520 --> 00:02:36,800 Speaker 1: got to the point where I was just tired of 61 00:02:36,840 --> 00:02:39,160 Speaker 1: driving to Carson. So I go up there three days 62 00:02:39,160 --> 00:02:40,760 Speaker 1: a week. And then I googled and I found a 63 00:02:40,800 --> 00:02:43,000 Speaker 1: gym that was right around the corner that had bumper plates, 64 00:02:43,320 --> 00:02:45,200 Speaker 1: which was a CrossFit gym. And I showed up there 65 00:02:45,320 --> 00:02:46,600 Speaker 1: and the guy I was like, Hey, can I just 66 00:02:46,639 --> 00:02:48,400 Speaker 1: pay to work out here? I want to use your equipment, 67 00:02:49,040 --> 00:02:50,519 Speaker 1: And that's how it all kind of came about. And 68 00:02:50,560 --> 00:02:53,080 Speaker 1: then I guess the owner told CrossFit that this NFL 69 00:02:53,160 --> 00:02:55,640 Speaker 1: dude was training there, and then they reached out and 70 00:02:55,680 --> 00:02:58,040 Speaker 1: then they invited me, and I didn't necessarily know what 71 00:02:58,080 --> 00:02:59,440 Speaker 1: it was, and I. 72 00:02:59,360 --> 00:03:00,680 Speaker 2: Was like lifting in there. 73 00:03:00,720 --> 00:03:02,480 Speaker 1: Yeah, like they said it would be some heavy stuff 74 00:03:02,480 --> 00:03:03,880 Speaker 1: and a little bit of running, and I was like, great, 75 00:03:03,880 --> 00:03:06,040 Speaker 1: I've been run more than like thirty yards at a 76 00:03:06,080 --> 00:03:08,000 Speaker 1: time because we're only giving speed for second about six 77 00:03:08,000 --> 00:03:11,960 Speaker 1: second verse. Yeah, just nothing but speedwork, like the conditioning stuff. 78 00:03:12,000 --> 00:03:14,720 Speaker 1: I had a note like at the time, I believed 79 00:03:14,800 --> 00:03:17,280 Speaker 1: that having aerobic base was the most overrated thing in 80 00:03:17,320 --> 00:03:20,160 Speaker 1: the planet. Right lift heavyweights, sprint, rest and recover and 81 00:03:20,160 --> 00:03:20,560 Speaker 1: we'll be good. 82 00:03:20,560 --> 00:03:22,520 Speaker 2: You're good. I mean, you were a guard, right guard? 83 00:03:22,800 --> 00:03:23,239 Speaker 2: I played. 84 00:03:23,840 --> 00:03:26,760 Speaker 1: I played guard for so I played tackling college and 85 00:03:26,760 --> 00:03:28,360 Speaker 1: then I started my first year at tackle and then 86 00:03:28,360 --> 00:03:30,480 Speaker 1: they moved me to guard, and then I played tackling 87 00:03:30,520 --> 00:03:32,200 Speaker 1: guard and kind of moved in between over those tens. 88 00:03:32,280 --> 00:03:33,960 Speaker 2: So you at that point you were out how much 89 00:03:33,960 --> 00:03:34,240 Speaker 2: you weigh. 90 00:03:34,560 --> 00:03:36,880 Speaker 1: I showed across the games at three hundred and eight pounds. Wow, 91 00:03:38,040 --> 00:03:40,920 Speaker 1: So I was like and so every year I played 92 00:03:40,960 --> 00:03:42,640 Speaker 1: the majority of my NFL career between three or six 93 00:03:42,720 --> 00:03:43,920 Speaker 1: and three oh eight, But I went to camp at 94 00:03:43,920 --> 00:03:46,600 Speaker 1: three twelve. YEP, so I was probably closer to three twelve. Yeah, 95 00:03:46,960 --> 00:03:48,400 Speaker 1: And I showed up and I'm looking around and the 96 00:03:48,440 --> 00:03:50,360 Speaker 1: speelers are like one hundred and thirty five pounds, and 97 00:03:50,400 --> 00:03:52,320 Speaker 1: I'm like, I'm gonna get killed dead. 98 00:03:52,760 --> 00:03:55,760 Speaker 2: Yeah, what were the There was a sprint or it 99 00:03:55,800 --> 00:03:57,560 Speaker 2: was like two hundred meters type sprint. 100 00:03:57,680 --> 00:04:02,520 Speaker 1: A eight hundred meter he'll run, yeah, and then I 101 00:04:02,720 --> 00:04:05,080 Speaker 1: mistakenly got selected to do the run first. I should 102 00:04:05,080 --> 00:04:06,560 Speaker 1: have done it last, because at that point I was 103 00:04:06,600 --> 00:04:06,920 Speaker 1: just done. 104 00:04:07,000 --> 00:04:09,360 Speaker 2: Yeah. And then was there a deadlift burpie? 105 00:04:09,400 --> 00:04:11,240 Speaker 1: Yeah, there's deadlifts and burpies. And then there was a 106 00:04:11,280 --> 00:04:13,160 Speaker 1: pull up chest of our pull up and thrust. Her 107 00:04:13,800 --> 00:04:16,360 Speaker 1: problem was is that they left the racks out where 108 00:04:16,360 --> 00:04:18,280 Speaker 1: the rigs were outside. It sound right, and they were 109 00:04:18,279 --> 00:04:18,800 Speaker 1: all rusted. 110 00:04:18,839 --> 00:04:19,640 Speaker 2: Yeah, no, it does sound like. 111 00:04:19,720 --> 00:04:22,240 Speaker 1: So the very first rep sheered off both of my 112 00:04:22,279 --> 00:04:25,039 Speaker 1: pomps and I actually you can see it in the video. 113 00:04:25,279 --> 00:04:27,280 Speaker 1: I think I'm biting the skin and spitting it out. 114 00:04:27,400 --> 00:04:27,640 Speaker 2: Yeah. 115 00:04:27,760 --> 00:04:29,600 Speaker 1: Yeah, like both cheered off to the point they. 116 00:04:29,480 --> 00:04:32,840 Speaker 2: Did not give the context that you were like straight 117 00:04:32,880 --> 00:04:35,280 Speaker 2: off the NFL, Like no, you know in the video, 118 00:04:35,279 --> 00:04:36,719 Speaker 2: So if anybody gets a chance to go back and 119 00:04:36,720 --> 00:04:37,560 Speaker 2: watch it, it's pretty good. 120 00:04:37,600 --> 00:04:40,560 Speaker 3: That would have been like you was drafted in ninety nine. 121 00:04:40,800 --> 00:04:43,719 Speaker 1: Yeah, so I was going in my tenth year. Yeah, 122 00:04:43,839 --> 00:04:45,360 Speaker 1: I was going to my tenth year, and I was like, yeah, 123 00:04:45,360 --> 00:04:48,440 Speaker 1: I wouldn't do that working out. I'm good at that. 124 00:04:49,080 --> 00:04:51,159 Speaker 1: I didn't realize that they were stacking the deck against me. 125 00:04:51,440 --> 00:04:54,279 Speaker 1: They were setting you up. Yeah, it sound like anything 126 00:04:54,320 --> 00:04:57,440 Speaker 1: they would do. No, And the the worst part about 127 00:04:57,440 --> 00:05:00,640 Speaker 1: it is I like just didn't know, like. 128 00:05:00,960 --> 00:05:02,880 Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, I shouldn't know what to do. You didn't 129 00:05:02,880 --> 00:05:04,360 Speaker 2: know what the methodology was, You didn't know you were 130 00:05:04,360 --> 00:05:05,800 Speaker 2: stepping into you didn't know any of it. 131 00:05:05,960 --> 00:05:08,839 Speaker 1: Yeah, so it just showed up.

So 177 00:06:50,720 --> 00:06:52,360 Speaker 1: our family business, when I was planning to do was 178 00:06:52,400 --> 00:06:54,400 Speaker 1: go back to law school. And then that's when Glassman 179 00:06:54,480 --> 00:06:56,640 Speaker 1: hit me up. And it was kind of an interesting pitch. 180 00:06:57,560 --> 00:06:59,919 Speaker 1: The way he framed it was something like that, you know, 181 00:07:00,080 --> 00:07:02,400 Speaker 1: somebody says something you one time and you're like, man, 182 00:07:02,440 --> 00:07:04,400 Speaker 1: I never thought about it like that, and I had 183 00:07:04,400 --> 00:07:07,440 Speaker 1: no desire to coach or really kind of get into 184 00:07:07,480 --> 00:07:09,360 Speaker 1: this role. And he said, he goes, would you help 185 00:07:09,440 --> 00:07:11,760 Speaker 1: us develop our technique or our technology on how to 186 00:07:11,800 --> 00:07:14,640 Speaker 1: train athletes? And I had never thought about training as 187 00:07:14,640 --> 00:07:17,440 Speaker 1: a technology, and the way that he said it, I 188 00:07:17,480 --> 00:07:20,200 Speaker 1: was like, oh, that's really interesting. And then he asked me, 189 00:07:20,240 --> 00:07:21,800 Speaker 1: He's like, what are your theories on training? And I 190 00:07:21,840 --> 00:07:26,320 Speaker 1: was like, I can tell you that I've been fortunate 191 00:07:26,360 --> 00:07:28,440 Speaker 1: to work with the best people on the planet, you know. 192 00:07:28,480 --> 00:07:30,520 Speaker 1: I was recount of the conversation I had with Charlie 193 00:07:30,560 --> 00:07:33,480 Speaker 1: Francis after I hurt myself my rookie year. Marl Dapa 194 00:07:33,480 --> 00:07:35,560 Speaker 1: Squall put me in touch with Charlie and I talked 195 00:07:35,560 --> 00:07:37,560 Speaker 1: to him. You know Ben Johnson, sprint coach, you know, 196 00:07:37,760 --> 00:07:40,320 Speaker 1: all her theories on sprinting come from him. I'd a 197 00:07:40,360 --> 00:07:42,960 Speaker 1: guy named Todd Rice. You know rof Eervey's Todd Rice 198 00:07:43,040 --> 00:07:45,280 Speaker 1: is the guy that trains the boots of Brothers, you know. 199 00:07:45,320 --> 00:07:48,040 Speaker 1: So I just had these like amazing strength coaches. Oh yeah, 200 00:07:48,160 --> 00:07:50,520 Speaker 1: I mean just like at every turn, I had these like, 201 00:07:50,640 --> 00:07:52,640 Speaker 1: you know, incredible dudes. And so I just kind of 202 00:07:52,720 --> 00:07:55,280 Speaker 1: smart enough to aggregate all this information and I was like, 203 00:07:55,400 --> 00:07:58,360 Speaker 1: I can do this. And then they asked me to 204 00:07:58,480 --> 00:08:00,400 Speaker 1: cross a football, which I even say, I don't miss 205 00:08:00,400 --> 00:08:03,040 Speaker 1: a terrible name. I thought it was a cool name, 206 00:08:03,080 --> 00:08:05,720 Speaker 1: but well, I mean but people showed up legitimate with cleats, 207 00:08:05,760 --> 00:08:09,400 Speaker 1: thinking that we were going like yeah, yeah, and I 208 00:08:09,440 --> 00:08:11,120 Speaker 1: was like, not how we're doing it. 209 00:08:11,200 --> 00:08:11,280 Speaker 3: No. 210 00:08:11,320 --> 00:08:12,840 Speaker 1: I was like I'm just trying to teach, you know. 211 00:08:12,920 --> 00:08:15,240 Speaker 1: And and the original idea was like if CrossFit sat 212 00:08:15,280 --> 00:08:17,880 Speaker 1: in the middle, you got CrossFit endurance on one side intervals. 213 00:08:18,320 --> 00:08:19,440 Speaker 2: That was kind of the idea. 214 00:08:19,560 --> 00:08:22,360 Speaker 1: Well, yeah, I don't know. And then on the outside 215 00:08:22,400 --> 00:08:24,200 Speaker 1: there was like cross at football, which was they were 216 00:08:24,200 --> 00:08:27,320 Speaker 1: going to like how to use crossfits for sports specific training, right, 217 00:08:27,520 --> 00:08:29,120 Speaker 1: And I was like, okay, I can do this. Translation. 218 00:08:29,520 --> 00:08:31,480 Speaker 1: So we ended up launching it and we got like 219 00:08:31,480 --> 00:08:33,200 Speaker 1: seventeen thousand hits the first day, and then they hit 220 00:08:33,240 --> 00:08:35,280 Speaker 1: me upside you got to come teach a seminar, and 221 00:08:35,320 --> 00:08:37,839 Speaker 1: I was like, so the seminar was awful. We talked 222 00:08:37,840 --> 00:08:39,200 Speaker 1: people how to lyft weights, and then I made them 223 00:08:39,200 --> 00:08:42,040 Speaker 1: watch football plays on my cutups, and then I went 224 00:08:42,040 --> 00:08:43,040 Speaker 1: through and was like okay. 225 00:08:42,880 --> 00:08:44,040 Speaker 2: Here and then why we do this? 226 00:08:44,120 --> 00:08:46,200 Speaker 1: And then people were like and then I had to 227 00:08:46,240 --> 00:08:49,240 Speaker 1: like take a step back and realize, like, oh, like 228 00:08:49,320 --> 00:08:51,600 Speaker 1: the tenants of athleticism and a lot of these pieces 229 00:08:51,640 --> 00:08:54,280 Speaker 1: like this is what seems so basic and simple for 230 00:08:54,360 --> 00:08:55,160 Speaker 1: me I didn't. 231 00:08:55,160 --> 00:08:57,160 Speaker 2: I realized you got to not dumb it down, but 232 00:08:57,240 --> 00:08:58,360 Speaker 2: you have to like, well, I just. 233 00:08:58,320 --> 00:09:00,440 Speaker 1: Didn't think normal people wanted to know this stuff. Like 234 00:09:01,120 --> 00:09:04,640 Speaker 1: well at the time, I thought that, and this, as 235 00:09:04,640 --> 00:09:06,000 Speaker 1: you guys know, because you guys live in kind of 236 00:09:06,000 --> 00:09:07,960 Speaker 1: a little bit of an ivory tower too. To some extent, 237 00:09:08,200 --> 00:09:09,720 Speaker 1: you live in this bubble where all your friends are 238 00:09:09,720 --> 00:09:13,000 Speaker 1: pro athletes, and so you think, like most normal people, 239 00:09:13,040 --> 00:09:15,520 Speaker 1: like what do they do? Run marathons? Like do a triathlon. 240 00:09:15,720 --> 00:09:17,200 Speaker 1: I'd go to the gym and I'd see people kind 241 00:09:17,200 --> 00:09:18,960 Speaker 1: of lifting weights, and I just kind of assumed that, 242 00:09:19,000 --> 00:09:20,680 Speaker 1: like there was professional athletes and then the rest of 243 00:09:20,679 --> 00:09:23,120 Speaker 1: the world just kind of did like pilates. So when 244 00:09:23,160 --> 00:09:25,079 Speaker 1: I got out, I couldn't believe that like normal people 245 00:09:25,120 --> 00:09:25,880 Speaker 1: wanted to know this. 246 00:09:25,880 --> 00:09:27,480 Speaker 2: I wanted to suffer and train hard. 247 00:09:27,520 --> 00:09:30,120 Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, like, and I was like, where are these people? 248 00:09:30,440 --> 00:09:31,920 Speaker 1: I can't believe there's all these people that want to 249 00:09:31,960 --> 00:09:35,160 Speaker 1: know this stuff, right, So it was really it wasn't 250 00:09:35,160 --> 00:09:37,600 Speaker 1: the methodology, and it wasn't cross at HQ. Was actually 251 00:09:37,640 --> 00:09:40,040 Speaker 1: the community of people that were interested, which is why 252 00:09:40,080 --> 00:09:42,160 Speaker 1: I stuck around. And those are the people that I 253 00:09:42,200 --> 00:09:44,800 Speaker 1: really liked and like I always go back whenever anything happens. 254 00:09:44,840 --> 00:09:46,920 Speaker 1: I'm like, you just don't remember what it was like 255 00:09:46,960 --> 00:09:48,800 Speaker 1: for the people that showed up to the seminar. It 256 00:09:48,840 --> 00:09:50,400 Speaker 1: was like bringing fire to Eskimos. 257 00:09:50,400 --> 00:09:51,080 Speaker 2: Oh yeah, for sure. 258 00:09:51,120 --> 00:09:53,199 Speaker 1: And people were so excited, they were so thirsty for it. 259 00:09:53,679 --> 00:09:55,640 Speaker 1: And then like all the other stuff was just kind 260 00:09:55,640 --> 00:09:57,040 Speaker 1: of like what we had to suffer. 261 00:09:56,760 --> 00:10:01,720 Speaker 2: With, right, that's awesome. Yeah, I mean those days. I 262 00:10:01,840 --> 00:10:05,200 Speaker 2: was just out of my four year degree in exercise 263 00:10:05,240 --> 00:10:08,600 Speaker 2: science and then under Tennessee Tech here and then Chip, 264 00:10:08,679 --> 00:10:10,880 Speaker 2: I was actually a firefighter. The reason I found CrossFit 265 00:10:11,120 --> 00:10:15,120 Speaker 2: was Chip was teaching one of the like training for 266 00:10:15,200 --> 00:10:17,320 Speaker 2: performance or something, one of the classes we had to take, 267 00:10:17,760 --> 00:10:20,599 Speaker 2: and like similar to you, probably in the beginning, he 268 00:10:20,600 --> 00:10:22,360 Speaker 2: would just put on a CrossFit dot com video and 269 00:10:22,400 --> 00:10:23,640 Speaker 2: be like, yeah, look at this. I remember one of 270 00:10:23,679 --> 00:10:26,720 Speaker 2: the first workouts I watched was like burpie mile, and 271 00:10:26,760 --> 00:10:29,719 Speaker 2: then he showed a guy doing fran and I think 272 00:10:29,720 --> 00:10:32,120 Speaker 2: it was Bill Grumbler in turnout gear. And so I 273 00:10:32,160 --> 00:10:34,840 Speaker 2: was a firefighter, Oh yeah, I could do this, and 274 00:10:34,880 --> 00:10:36,720 Speaker 2: so that's kind of the rest is history from there, 275 00:10:36,760 --> 00:10:39,319 Speaker 2: and then he offered me a job as an assistant 276 00:10:39,360 --> 00:10:40,520 Speaker 2: or a grad assistant and. 277 00:10:41,160 --> 00:10:44,160 Speaker 1: Our first commercial offering at Tennessee Tech. 278 00:10:44,240 --> 00:10:46,000 Speaker 2: No, really, I think I think so. I think it 279 00:10:46,040 --> 00:10:48,040 Speaker 2: was before I was there, but it was up in 280 00:10:48,080 --> 00:10:51,280 Speaker 2: the was it in the old in the stadium up top? 281 00:10:51,559 --> 00:10:54,160 Speaker 1: Maybe on an incredible facility now, but yeah, it was awful, trash. 282 00:10:54,240 --> 00:10:58,319 Speaker 1: I totally bombed it. Chip liked it well, like they 283 00:10:58,440 --> 00:11:00,800 Speaker 1: liked it. But I just remember like my lecture was terrible. 284 00:11:00,840 --> 00:11:02,360 Speaker 1: I didn't know what I was teaching. I got up 285 00:11:02,360 --> 00:11:04,240 Speaker 1: there and I realized I was like, oh, man, like 286 00:11:04,720 --> 00:11:08,200 Speaker 1: I have to like like one of my uh like 287 00:11:08,240 --> 00:11:09,680 Speaker 1: our family friends. Like you know, you end up with 288 00:11:09,720 --> 00:11:11,559 Speaker 1: these kid friends where your kids are friends and your 289 00:11:11,559 --> 00:11:13,160 Speaker 1: parents and then the kids aren't friends anymore, but you 290 00:11:13,160 --> 00:11:16,559 Speaker 1: still keep the parents. So my buddy Dad's wife Michelle 291 00:11:16,600 --> 00:11:19,880 Speaker 1: always is like her joke is like do better, do better, 292 00:11:20,000 --> 00:11:22,280 Speaker 1: be better. And so I had this moment where I 293 00:11:22,280 --> 00:11:25,559 Speaker 1: got up there and my presentation was not good because 294 00:11:25,559 --> 00:11:27,839 Speaker 1: one I didn't know the source material and I wasn't 295 00:11:27,880 --> 00:11:31,240 Speaker 1: an expert. And I just remember like echoing my head 296 00:11:31,240 --> 00:11:33,600 Speaker 1: like you have to do better. And I ended up 297 00:11:33,640 --> 00:11:35,480 Speaker 1: going back and that was where I started like really 298 00:11:35,520 --> 00:11:37,679 Speaker 1: digging in on the methodology and deciding like who I am, 299 00:11:37,679 --> 00:11:39,160 Speaker 1: what do I believe? What am I trying to teach? 300 00:11:39,360 --> 00:11:41,000 Speaker 1: If I'm going to influence people, it has to be 301 00:11:41,000 --> 00:11:42,720 Speaker 1: both good and authentic. 302 00:11:42,520 --> 00:11:46,080 Speaker 2: Right, yeah, And I think basically from what I gathered 303 00:11:46,120 --> 00:11:48,480 Speaker 2: from it was you took the Crosswit methodology, which is 304 00:11:48,480 --> 00:11:51,600 Speaker 2: a general physical preparedness, but we know the demands of 305 00:11:51,640 --> 00:11:55,400 Speaker 2: the sport of football, so we're just sporting sport in general, right, 306 00:11:55,480 --> 00:11:57,319 Speaker 2: But you can also you can adapt that. And that's 307 00:11:57,320 --> 00:11:59,080 Speaker 2: what we've done with on the Hunt side of things, 308 00:11:59,160 --> 00:12:02,000 Speaker 2: is like, sure, we know what we're training for in 309 00:12:02,160 --> 00:12:04,400 Speaker 2: within some type of you know, but I still think 310 00:12:05,280 --> 00:12:06,959 Speaker 2: you know, a lot of guys or girls get out 311 00:12:06,960 --> 00:12:09,680 Speaker 2: there and think, oh hunting, I'm just I need endurance 312 00:12:09,679 --> 00:12:11,640 Speaker 2: and just time on my feet, which you yes, you do. 313 00:12:11,960 --> 00:12:14,120 Speaker 2: You also need a lot of this other stuff, and 314 00:12:14,160 --> 00:12:16,360 Speaker 2: some of that is burst energy, you know, like we 315 00:12:16,440 --> 00:12:18,559 Speaker 2: know the different energy pathways and those types of things. 316 00:12:18,600 --> 00:12:21,400 Speaker 2: And so we're training people. Granted we are leaning more 317 00:12:21,640 --> 00:12:24,400 Speaker 2: towards the endurance side, especially closer to the event, but 318 00:12:24,840 --> 00:12:27,040 Speaker 2: you know, there's this whole I think we get caught 319 00:12:27,120 --> 00:12:29,200 Speaker 2: up and thinking that, oh it's got to be there's 320 00:12:29,240 --> 00:12:31,240 Speaker 2: no plan, but there is a plan. You look at 321 00:12:31,240 --> 00:12:32,840 Speaker 2: a season or a year and you're like, and I 322 00:12:32,840 --> 00:12:36,760 Speaker 2: think of it as for hunting, Like I'm getting people, guys, 323 00:12:36,840 --> 00:12:40,559 Speaker 2: girls ready for September, and so you know in January, 324 00:12:40,559 --> 00:12:43,080 Speaker 2: we're building strength, right. You know, you take a college 325 00:12:43,080 --> 00:12:46,800 Speaker 2: football or a you know, a yeah exactly, and I know, 326 00:12:46,880 --> 00:12:50,960 Speaker 2: right you and but we still keep some intensity and 327 00:12:51,040 --> 00:12:53,320 Speaker 2: still you know, keep a base. But hey, we do 328 00:12:53,400 --> 00:12:56,240 Speaker 2: specialize in a certain area. But then it slowly transitions. 329 00:12:56,640 --> 00:12:59,439 Speaker 2: You know, we're talking periodization to where they're ready for 330 00:12:59,520 --> 00:13:02,400 Speaker 2: their event, right, and so I look at it as 331 00:13:02,640 --> 00:13:05,320 Speaker 2: hunting season, as their event or our event. 332 00:13:05,160 --> 00:13:07,520 Speaker 1: And there, yeah, they're just their season in general. 333 00:13:07,280 --> 00:13:10,200 Speaker 2: Exactly, And so I enjoy it, you know, similar to 334 00:13:10,240 --> 00:13:11,840 Speaker 2: you probably where you kind of geek out on it 335 00:13:11,880 --> 00:13:13,560 Speaker 2: and people it gets lost where people are like, I 336 00:13:13,559 --> 00:13:14,920 Speaker 2: don't I don't care to show. 337 00:13:14,760 --> 00:13:16,480 Speaker 1: Me what to just tell me what to do. Yeah exactly, 338 00:13:17,000 --> 00:13:18,000 Speaker 1: that's why you've been successful. 339 00:13:18,040 --> 00:13:19,800 Speaker 2: But I enjoy it, man. You know, it's similar to 340 00:13:19,840 --> 00:13:21,600 Speaker 2: what you're talking about. You just start geeking out on 341 00:13:21,679 --> 00:13:24,440 Speaker 2: numbers and just you know stuff that most people are like, 342 00:13:24,480 --> 00:13:26,480 Speaker 2: I don't, I don't care why the number, why the 343 00:13:26,520 --> 00:13:29,440 Speaker 2: movements go that way or do whatever. So but yeah, 344 00:13:29,480 --> 00:13:31,679 Speaker 2: we I used a ton of the crossfoot football, so well, 345 00:13:31,720 --> 00:13:33,199 Speaker 2: you know, I took the ideas. 346 00:13:32,920 --> 00:13:35,000 Speaker 1: Of it, so you know, before a cross at football, 347 00:13:35,360 --> 00:13:38,040 Speaker 1: strength was just another element that it was. Actually we 348 00:13:38,080 --> 00:13:41,440 Speaker 1: started prescribing a strength workout and a conditioning workout at 349 00:13:41,480 --> 00:13:43,839 Speaker 1: the same time in the same day, and they were like. 350 00:13:43,800 --> 00:13:46,880 Speaker 2: Two workouts and we're going to people are going to die. Yeah, 351 00:13:47,080 --> 00:13:49,240 Speaker 2: close people's mind. I remember the first time we did 352 00:13:49,240 --> 00:13:51,760 Speaker 2: it to a day. People were like, I got hate mail. 353 00:13:52,920 --> 00:13:55,559 Speaker 2: I get two hundred emails, how dare you? And I'm like, well, 354 00:13:55,559 --> 00:13:57,560 Speaker 2: it's called strength and conditioning. We're going to do them 355 00:13:58,080 --> 00:13:59,920 Speaker 2: both and then we can combine them into one too. 356 00:14:00,040 --> 00:14:01,719 Speaker 1: And then you guys started doing twenty nine workouts in 357 00:14:01,720 --> 00:14:01,960 Speaker 1: a day. 358 00:14:02,000 --> 00:14:03,880 Speaker 2: Yeah, that's true. We did kind of mess that up 359 00:14:03,880 --> 00:14:04,400 Speaker 2: for everybody. 360 00:14:05,480 --> 00:14:09,679 Speaker 1: People. Well, so Nicholas Romanov, who was the post guy, 361 00:14:10,480 --> 00:14:13,960 Speaker 1: incredible coach. I didn't really buy into the methodology as much, 362 00:14:14,400 --> 00:14:16,880 Speaker 1: but like for his knowledge as a Russian sports scientist, 363 00:14:16,960 --> 00:14:19,280 Speaker 1: like unbelievable, and he was University of Moscow and so 364 00:14:19,320 --> 00:14:22,400 Speaker 1: we had a lot of great conversations and he brought 365 00:14:22,480 --> 00:14:24,760 Speaker 1: up a really cool point once where because I was 366 00:14:24,760 --> 00:14:26,520 Speaker 1: asking him about, like, why is it some athletes can 367 00:14:26,600 --> 00:14:28,880 Speaker 1: handle more training lad than others. So my roommate in 368 00:14:28,880 --> 00:14:31,600 Speaker 1: college is gut named Kevin Doherty, and Doe benched like 369 00:14:31,800 --> 00:14:34,480 Speaker 1: four hundred and fifty pounds in high school. She squatted 370 00:14:34,480 --> 00:14:37,280 Speaker 1: like in the sixes, and then came to college, and 371 00:14:37,400 --> 00:14:39,600 Speaker 1: every single day he was in college he got weaker, 372 00:14:39,680 --> 00:14:41,600 Speaker 1: to the point where he barely benched three hundred pounds 373 00:14:41,600 --> 00:14:44,200 Speaker 1: as a senior. And I remember asking him, like, Dough, like, 374 00:14:44,360 --> 00:14:44,840 Speaker 1: what happened? 375 00:14:44,840 --> 00:14:45,320 Speaker 2: What's going on? 376 00:14:45,400 --> 00:14:48,480 Speaker 1: He's like, he goes, I'm just tired. I can't do it. 377 00:14:48,520 --> 00:14:50,120 Speaker 1: Because to play college football you have to be a 378 00:14:50,160 --> 00:14:51,800 Speaker 1: big monkey, is what I call it. Like we would 379 00:14:51,800 --> 00:14:53,600 Speaker 1: train six days a week, and it was like, you know, 380 00:14:53,760 --> 00:14:56,360 Speaker 1: progressive overloading. Yeah yeah, And he was like I trained 381 00:14:56,400 --> 00:14:58,480 Speaker 1: three days a week in high school and like I 382 00:14:58,520 --> 00:15:00,280 Speaker 1: feel tired all the time and I'm detaying and I 383 00:15:00,400 --> 00:15:03,640 Speaker 1: just can't handle a lot. So I asked doctor Romanov 384 00:15:03,680 --> 00:15:06,760 Speaker 1: about it, and he goes, they did a you know, 385 00:15:06,880 --> 00:15:08,840 Speaker 1: I hope it's been many years. I'll tell his story 386 00:15:08,840 --> 00:15:10,840 Speaker 1: and this is doctor Romov's sory, not mine. Yeah, but 387 00:15:10,880 --> 00:15:14,320 Speaker 1: they did research and they looked at like different monkeys. 388 00:15:14,880 --> 00:15:16,760 Speaker 1: And there were certain monkeys that played and battled and 389 00:15:16,760 --> 00:15:18,960 Speaker 1: fought and did everything and moved like twenty hours a day, 390 00:15:19,240 --> 00:15:21,120 Speaker 1: and then there were other monkeys that only moved enough 391 00:15:21,120 --> 00:15:23,800 Speaker 1: to eat and were very like sedentary and rested a lot. 392 00:15:23,960 --> 00:15:26,160 Speaker 1: So what they did is they flipped the environments and 393 00:15:26,200 --> 00:15:28,200 Speaker 1: they put the one monkey as he's one of those, 394 00:15:28,240 --> 00:15:30,560 Speaker 1: oh he is okay, They took the monkeys that moved 395 00:15:30,560 --> 00:15:31,960 Speaker 1: all the time and they locked him in a cage 396 00:15:32,000 --> 00:15:33,960 Speaker 1: where they couldn't move sound. And then they took the 397 00:15:33,960 --> 00:15:36,160 Speaker 1: other monkeys that like only moved a little bit to eat, 398 00:15:36,200 --> 00:15:38,640 Speaker 1: and they forced them to move all day. And the 399 00:15:38,680 --> 00:15:40,960 Speaker 1: big the monkeys that needed to move or that couldn't 400 00:15:40,960 --> 00:15:43,040 Speaker 1: move a lot, ended up just laying down and dying. 401 00:15:43,280 --> 00:15:44,520 Speaker 1: And the other monkeys when they got out of the 402 00:15:44,520 --> 00:15:46,040 Speaker 1: cag just went over and beat each other to death. 403 00:15:46,400 --> 00:15:48,720 Speaker 1: So they theorized that there was like big monkeys and 404 00:15:48,760 --> 00:15:51,280 Speaker 1: small monkeys, and in the training space it's the same thing. 405 00:15:51,600 --> 00:15:53,800 Speaker 1: And doctor Romanov went through all these different athletes that 406 00:15:53,800 --> 00:15:56,080 Speaker 1: were like small monkeys where they only trained three four 407 00:15:56,120 --> 00:15:57,440 Speaker 1: days a week and they want a gold medal. But 408 00:15:57,480 --> 00:15:59,800 Speaker 1: the minute that you put them in a high intensity program. 409 00:16:00,040 --> 00:16:00,600 Speaker 1: It just imploded. 410 00:16:00,720 --> 00:16:03,080 Speaker 2: You mean, everybody's different and you have to train differently 411 00:16:03,120 --> 00:16:04,480 Speaker 2: for some people. Yeah. 412 00:16:04,520 --> 00:16:07,680 Speaker 1: And so the thing is is in college football and 413 00:16:07,680 --> 00:16:10,920 Speaker 1: also in pro football, you had, especially offensive line, you 414 00:16:10,960 --> 00:16:12,040 Speaker 1: have to be a big monkey. You have to be 415 00:16:12,040 --> 00:16:14,680 Speaker 1: a big monkey, whereas like there were quarterbacks who are 416 00:16:14,720 --> 00:16:16,960 Speaker 1: small monkeys, like you know, like I played with Tom 417 00:16:17,000 --> 00:16:18,680 Speaker 1: Brady and there was a kid with a little counter 418 00:16:18,880 --> 00:16:21,400 Speaker 1: and he counted every single throw Tom threw and then 419 00:16:21,400 --> 00:16:23,040 Speaker 1: all of a sudden, once he hit his number, he 420 00:16:23,120 --> 00:16:25,160 Speaker 1: was done. And I played with other guys that could 421 00:16:25,200 --> 00:16:27,320 Speaker 1: throw the ball like Patrick Mahomes can throw the ball 422 00:16:27,320 --> 00:16:29,480 Speaker 1: three hundred times in a practice. I think Tom got 423 00:16:29,480 --> 00:16:32,840 Speaker 1: like fifty reps. So they were like, you know, and 424 00:16:32,880 --> 00:16:35,200 Speaker 1: they know exactly, like, hey, this guy's a big monkey, 425 00:16:35,280 --> 00:16:37,920 Speaker 1: small monkey. For those positions offensive line, you just have 426 00:16:37,960 --> 00:16:39,480 Speaker 1: to be able to like run into a wall over 427 00:16:39,480 --> 00:16:41,800 Speaker 1: and over again. Yeah, and the guys that don't kind 428 00:16:41,800 --> 00:16:45,160 Speaker 1: of naturally select out don't make it. And so that 429 00:16:45,320 --> 00:16:47,720 Speaker 1: was a big piece. And especially when we started looking 430 00:16:47,720 --> 00:16:50,600 Speaker 1: at like how CrossFit people and you know, you obviously 431 00:16:50,800 --> 00:16:54,200 Speaker 1: are the biggest monkey. Was yeah, well, well yeah, formerly 432 00:16:54,200 --> 00:16:56,640 Speaker 1: a big monkey, but like you know, and you kind 433 00:16:56,680 --> 00:16:58,720 Speaker 1: of set the pace. And I think what happened was 434 00:16:58,800 --> 00:17:00,280 Speaker 1: it's kind of like in the Tour of Ants when 435 00:17:00,360 --> 00:17:02,680 Speaker 1: Lance Armstrong would take off and all those dudes tried 436 00:17:02,720 --> 00:17:04,239 Speaker 1: to chase him and he would just like grind him 437 00:17:04,240 --> 00:17:07,280 Speaker 1: into the earth. I think you probably obliterated your competition 438 00:17:07,480 --> 00:17:08,919 Speaker 1: just for the fact that you were training at such 439 00:17:08,960 --> 00:17:10,720 Speaker 1: a high volume and a lot of guys couldn't handle it. 440 00:17:10,800 --> 00:17:12,919 Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, no. I mean when we started, it was 441 00:17:13,000 --> 00:17:15,360 Speaker 2: like one workout a day, and if you did more 442 00:17:15,400 --> 00:17:17,480 Speaker 2: than one workout a day, you would probably die, like 443 00:17:17,520 --> 00:17:20,200 Speaker 2: your kidneys couldn't handle it. And whatever we did. I 444 00:17:20,280 --> 00:17:22,840 Speaker 2: remember the first time we did two workouts we did 445 00:17:23,520 --> 00:17:25,960 Speaker 2: there was a bench and pull up workout land in 446 00:17:26,000 --> 00:17:28,560 Speaker 2: the morning, and that afternoon we did a second workout. 447 00:17:28,680 --> 00:17:31,560 Speaker 2: We were like just waiting to die, you know, and 448 00:17:31,600 --> 00:17:33,479 Speaker 2: it didn't happen, and so me and Darren and then 449 00:17:33,520 --> 00:17:35,960 Speaker 2: on just kind of just started doing it right and 450 00:17:36,000 --> 00:17:37,760 Speaker 2: it wasn't even it was just like second nature, right. 451 00:17:37,840 --> 00:17:40,600 Speaker 2: It was like there's a lot that goes into it, 452 00:17:40,640 --> 00:17:42,200 Speaker 2: you know. In the last couple of years, I've joked 453 00:17:42,200 --> 00:17:44,639 Speaker 2: that I think there's some substance abuse is part of it. 454 00:17:44,680 --> 00:17:46,919 Speaker 2: Little obsession, little substance abuse, a little the way I 455 00:17:47,040 --> 00:17:47,840 Speaker 2: was raised, right. 456 00:17:47,800 --> 00:17:50,640 Speaker 1: But oh you mean that you have like a little 457 00:17:50,680 --> 00:17:53,080 Speaker 1: like addicted person out for sure, one hundred percent. I 458 00:17:53,160 --> 00:17:55,080 Speaker 1: always believe that there was a lot of people masking 459 00:17:55,280 --> 00:17:58,000 Speaker 1: addictive personalities and maybe like the dependence like this is 460 00:17:58,040 --> 00:18:00,439 Speaker 1: almost better than like AA to be able to get 461 00:18:00,440 --> 00:18:01,320 Speaker 1: into CROSS exactly. 462 00:18:02,520 --> 00:18:06,480 Speaker 3: So if you have somebody, I guess you recognize that. 463 00:18:06,600 --> 00:18:10,679 Speaker 4: So like very practically, if somebody's following, whether it's our program, 464 00:18:10,760 --> 00:18:14,280 Speaker 4: your program, and they how do they recognize in themselves 465 00:18:15,480 --> 00:18:17,399 Speaker 4: because that's like the normal thing, you know, Like for 466 00:18:17,480 --> 00:18:20,479 Speaker 4: the normal person you're there all they see a workout 467 00:18:20,520 --> 00:18:21,960 Speaker 4: and they're like, oh, I'm not I don't want to 468 00:18:21,960 --> 00:18:22,720 Speaker 4: do that's too much work. 469 00:18:23,200 --> 00:18:24,439 Speaker 2: That's bird with rope clowns. 470 00:18:24,480 --> 00:18:26,040 Speaker 1: Well, I mean the thing the thing to think about 471 00:18:26,040 --> 00:18:26,480 Speaker 1: this like I. 472 00:18:26,440 --> 00:18:29,280 Speaker 4: Actually did like all the pro football stuff because it 473 00:18:29,359 --> 00:18:30,400 Speaker 4: had anything like. 474 00:18:30,640 --> 00:18:33,159 Speaker 3: Early on in my cherry picking workouts. 475 00:18:33,040 --> 00:18:35,359 Speaker 2: I would look at me. But you look at a 476 00:18:35,400 --> 00:18:37,320 Speaker 2: lot of the stuff we do now it's similar to 477 00:18:37,400 --> 00:18:40,160 Speaker 2: Cross because it's interesting, like it's intervals, like you can 478 00:18:40,160 --> 00:18:42,919 Speaker 2: get more intensity when you break things, and people are 479 00:18:42,960 --> 00:18:44,840 Speaker 2: get so caught up and like, oh, I just got 480 00:18:44,840 --> 00:18:46,480 Speaker 2: to do a fort like even in I'm thinking in 481 00:18:46,480 --> 00:18:48,439 Speaker 2: the hunting space specifically, like, oh, I need to be 482 00:18:48,880 --> 00:18:51,240 Speaker 2: our rock. That's that's it, and I need to do 483 00:18:51,280 --> 00:18:53,000 Speaker 2: that every day. And I'm like, no, you need some 484 00:18:53,240 --> 00:18:56,240 Speaker 2: like intense bursts rest intense bursts, like because you're just 485 00:18:56,240 --> 00:18:58,040 Speaker 2: gonna run yourself on the ground. So sorry, I mean, 486 00:18:59,400 --> 00:18:59,800 Speaker 2: uh no. 487 00:19:00,119 --> 00:19:03,560 Speaker 1: Is the biggest issue with online programming, Katy. 488 00:19:03,560 --> 00:19:05,520 Speaker 3: You know, if you're a small monk, you're a big. 489 00:19:06,240 --> 00:19:08,760 Speaker 1: You're a small I could put you through the training 490 00:19:08,800 --> 00:19:11,800 Speaker 1: and I would. The problem with online programming is you 491 00:19:12,119 --> 00:19:14,800 Speaker 1: is you're basically programming for the bell curve, the middle 492 00:19:14,800 --> 00:19:16,520 Speaker 1: of the bell curve, and the problem is you're gonna 493 00:19:16,520 --> 00:19:18,760 Speaker 1: have bout liars on the top and the bottom. And unfortunately, 494 00:19:18,840 --> 00:19:20,720 Speaker 1: there's not a good way to assess these people. And 495 00:19:20,720 --> 00:19:22,040 Speaker 1: I'm sure you guys run in it, and that's why 496 00:19:22,080 --> 00:19:23,919 Speaker 1: you have churn and burn. People come in and they 497 00:19:23,920 --> 00:19:25,320 Speaker 1: look at it like this is too much, this is 498 00:19:25,320 --> 00:19:27,640 Speaker 1: too complicated. I don't have this equipment. So you start 499 00:19:27,640 --> 00:19:29,639 Speaker 1: looking at all the pain points. But if you can 500 00:19:29,720 --> 00:19:31,560 Speaker 1: hit it, and I did. I got into it. The 501 00:19:31,600 --> 00:19:33,919 Speaker 1: other day. Guy sent over an email my assistant sent 502 00:19:34,000 --> 00:19:35,720 Speaker 1: it to me, and I like, I took it and 503 00:19:35,760 --> 00:19:37,399 Speaker 1: I was like, the guy's like, you know, basically like 504 00:19:37,440 --> 00:19:39,560 Speaker 1: critiquing it, and I kind of like basically was like, 505 00:19:39,680 --> 00:19:42,440 Speaker 1: I got thirty minutes, Yeah, sit down. And I sent 506 00:19:42,520 --> 00:19:44,679 Speaker 1: this guy like a dissertation on everything, and he of 507 00:19:44,720 --> 00:19:46,879 Speaker 1: course responded with like a one line room, you know, 508 00:19:47,040 --> 00:19:49,879 Speaker 1: kind of a smart ass. No, it was more I 509 00:19:49,880 --> 00:19:53,280 Speaker 1: don't know, but hurt kind of I'll use the word response, 510 00:19:53,359 --> 00:19:55,879 Speaker 1: because he didn't I don't think he understood it and 511 00:19:55,880 --> 00:19:58,480 Speaker 1: didn't understand that there is a lot of physiology and 512 00:19:58,520 --> 00:20:00,199 Speaker 1: science and experience. 513 00:20:00,040 --> 00:20:00,639 Speaker 2: And on top of it. 514 00:20:00,720 --> 00:20:03,560 Speaker 1: I've been doing this a long time. I think since 515 00:20:03,560 --> 00:20:06,920 Speaker 1: two thousand and nine. We programmed at least one at 516 00:20:06,920 --> 00:20:09,120 Speaker 1: the time was across a football but then it became 517 00:20:09,160 --> 00:20:11,920 Speaker 1: like nine different training programs. It's something like over four 518 00:20:11,960 --> 00:20:14,919 Speaker 1: million workouts delivered to hundreds of thousands of athletes with 519 00:20:15,080 --> 00:20:17,840 Speaker 1: just millions of these data points. And after a while 520 00:20:17,840 --> 00:20:20,080 Speaker 1: you can kind of see like the you know, the 521 00:20:20,119 --> 00:20:21,760 Speaker 1: neo matrix where you're like, all right, I know how 522 00:20:21,760 --> 00:20:23,320 Speaker 1: to get people strong, I know how to get them jacked, 523 00:20:23,359 --> 00:20:24,919 Speaker 1: I know how to get them really fit. And then 524 00:20:24,960 --> 00:20:27,679 Speaker 1: you've tested on all these athletes and you know what 525 00:20:27,720 --> 00:20:30,479 Speaker 1: the results are. And so if somebody sits outside that pool, 526 00:20:30,840 --> 00:20:32,639 Speaker 1: they're either a high or really high and it's not 527 00:20:32,760 --> 00:20:34,919 Speaker 1: enough or it's too much. And at that point you 528 00:20:34,960 --> 00:20:36,800 Speaker 1: have to dial back volume in intensity and you have 529 00:20:36,840 --> 00:20:39,000 Speaker 1: to look at them be like all right, I will 530 00:20:39,080 --> 00:20:44,800 Speaker 1: never turn down the intensity, but like you can recover 531 00:20:44,840 --> 00:20:48,680 Speaker 1: from intensity. And we did a years ago what's the 532 00:20:48,720 --> 00:20:52,680 Speaker 1: guy's name, Abajef came and gave the Bulgarian Olympics lefling 533 00:20:52,720 --> 00:20:55,560 Speaker 1: coach came and gave a talk for high school football 534 00:20:55,760 --> 00:20:58,879 Speaker 1: on a program that he would use for Bulgarians to 535 00:20:58,920 --> 00:21:01,439 Speaker 1: train high school fotball, basically maxing out every day. So 536 00:21:01,480 --> 00:21:03,440 Speaker 1: we sent every single so somebody there sent me the 537 00:21:03,480 --> 00:21:06,920 Speaker 1: program and I was like, let's do it. I squatted 538 00:21:06,920 --> 00:21:09,320 Speaker 1: between four fifty and five fifty for singles for eighteen 539 00:21:09,400 --> 00:21:11,199 Speaker 1: days in a row, yep, and then on like the 540 00:21:11,320 --> 00:21:14,320 Speaker 1: nineteenth day, I couldn't even squat one thirty five. And 541 00:21:14,359 --> 00:21:16,560 Speaker 1: I realized the problem is is that like you can 542 00:21:16,560 --> 00:21:18,040 Speaker 1: go with a lot of intensity, but you have to 543 00:21:18,040 --> 00:21:21,320 Speaker 1: be so conscious of the volume. So everybody can handle intensity, 544 00:21:21,320 --> 00:21:23,359 Speaker 1: how much volume they can handle is like big monkey 545 00:21:23,400 --> 00:21:26,080 Speaker 1: small monkey. So like, let's say somebody needs three reps, 546 00:21:26,080 --> 00:21:28,080 Speaker 1: because if you look at like Propen's table, you know, 547 00:21:28,160 --> 00:21:30,480 Speaker 1: you'd see like, you know, somewhere between a magic of 548 00:21:30,520 --> 00:21:33,560 Speaker 1: like four to seven. So like rich could probably handle ten, 549 00:21:33,680 --> 00:21:35,560 Speaker 1: you might be able to handle four. You're still going 550 00:21:35,640 --> 00:21:37,879 Speaker 1: to do the thing, same deal, and like you just 551 00:21:37,920 --> 00:21:39,960 Speaker 1: have to figure out what you can recover from. And 552 00:21:40,000 --> 00:21:41,240 Speaker 1: the greatest way to do it is, you know, a 553 00:21:41,240 --> 00:21:45,840 Speaker 1: percentage of one hourrammar intensity, you know, and. 554 00:21:45,840 --> 00:21:48,720 Speaker 2: Then document how you feel and hey, you know, like 555 00:21:48,880 --> 00:21:51,920 Speaker 2: hey I've done. When you have this, you can look 556 00:21:51,960 --> 00:21:53,920 Speaker 2: at all, right, this week was good, you know, and 557 00:21:54,480 --> 00:21:56,280 Speaker 2: put a couple weeks together and you're like, okay. 558 00:21:56,080 --> 00:21:57,600 Speaker 1: I'm good, and now you start to kind of see 559 00:21:57,600 --> 00:22:00,080 Speaker 1: what it looks exactly. But people don't want to do that. 560 00:22:00,119 --> 00:22:02,240 Speaker 2: They want to be told what to do, and they're 561 00:22:02,280 --> 00:22:05,239 Speaker 2: in one I see that side of it, Like you 562 00:22:05,280 --> 00:22:06,879 Speaker 2: pay for it, so you want to know that. But 563 00:22:06,960 --> 00:22:09,560 Speaker 2: also everybody's a little bit. And then you go and 564 00:22:09,640 --> 00:22:12,399 Speaker 2: you get into nutrition too, and there's so many differents. 565 00:22:12,720 --> 00:22:15,399 Speaker 1: I also have a theory that the training that you 566 00:22:15,480 --> 00:22:19,240 Speaker 1: do before puberty there's like an effectively priming of the 567 00:22:19,280 --> 00:22:22,000 Speaker 1: pump We had Chris Summer on the podcast, who is 568 00:22:22,000 --> 00:22:25,399 Speaker 1: a high level gymnastics coach, developed like kids from like 569 00:22:25,440 --> 00:22:28,640 Speaker 1: cradle to like Olympic champions, and he started talking about 570 00:22:28,680 --> 00:22:31,800 Speaker 1: this idea of like exposing them to like GPP and 571 00:22:31,880 --> 00:22:35,080 Speaker 1: like strength training pre puberty that it effectively. They did 572 00:22:35,680 --> 00:22:38,399 Speaker 1: a study that we referenced in Russia where they had 573 00:22:38,440 --> 00:22:40,720 Speaker 1: kids do a bunch of strength training GPP like kind 574 00:22:40,720 --> 00:22:42,960 Speaker 1: of like what you see for CrossFit pre puberty, and 575 00:22:42,960 --> 00:22:44,880 Speaker 1: then other kids didn't. Then at puberty, they all threw 576 00:22:44,920 --> 00:22:47,160 Speaker 1: them in the same program, and the kids that had 577 00:22:47,240 --> 00:22:50,600 Speaker 1: done this training beforehand developed strength and skills at a 578 00:22:50,640 --> 00:22:51,920 Speaker 1: much higher level than the ones it didn't. 579 00:22:52,000 --> 00:22:54,439 Speaker 2: I think that's building a neuro early. 580 00:22:55,640 --> 00:22:58,679 Speaker 1: But also there's a priming of the pump. And but 581 00:22:58,840 --> 00:23:01,439 Speaker 1: so I think a lot of people did before they 582 00:23:01,520 --> 00:23:03,880 Speaker 1: started lifting weights, you know, just like what we did 583 00:23:03,880 --> 00:23:07,960 Speaker 1: for training as kids. I did side ride your bike trees, 584 00:23:08,280 --> 00:23:11,560 Speaker 1: so like it's six. I started in martial arts, and 585 00:23:11,600 --> 00:23:13,480 Speaker 1: then we rode bikes, and we played baseball, and we 586 00:23:13,480 --> 00:23:15,680 Speaker 1: did all these sports. And like where our house was 587 00:23:15,680 --> 00:23:18,040 Speaker 1: was like the bus stop, so all the kids would 588 00:23:18,040 --> 00:23:20,000 Speaker 1: get off and we had a basketball like a hoop 589 00:23:20,160 --> 00:23:22,439 Speaker 1: so we had these like gnarly basketball games, and then 590 00:23:22,440 --> 00:23:25,720 Speaker 1: my brothers played football and like just this whole thing. 591 00:23:25,760 --> 00:23:26,920 Speaker 1: So I got to it, and all of a sudden, 592 00:23:26,960 --> 00:23:28,679 Speaker 1: I was like lifting weights and I got stronger every 593 00:23:28,720 --> 00:23:30,920 Speaker 1: week when other people weren't. And then I was able 594 00:23:30,920 --> 00:23:33,240 Speaker 1: to put on size and I grew and I just 595 00:23:33,280 --> 00:23:35,000 Speaker 1: like other people kind of flaked out and I was like, 596 00:23:35,000 --> 00:23:36,320 Speaker 1: I don't know, every time I go in this weight 597 00:23:36,400 --> 00:23:38,200 Speaker 1: room stuff, I get stronger. It's kind of addictive. 598 00:23:38,280 --> 00:23:40,440 Speaker 2: Yeah. Yeah, I'm one of thirty two first cousins twenty 599 00:23:40,480 --> 00:23:43,360 Speaker 2: five or boys. So everything we did was a competition, right. 600 00:23:43,480 --> 00:23:45,880 Speaker 1: That is the best training environment, I really. 601 00:23:45,640 --> 00:23:48,359 Speaker 2: Is, you know, like and you know they our uncles 602 00:23:48,359 --> 00:23:50,239 Speaker 2: would shame us if the girls beat us, which they 603 00:23:50,240 --> 00:23:52,280 Speaker 2: did regularly because they were pretty athletic. 604 00:23:52,359 --> 00:23:54,960 Speaker 1: You know, like that is I'm so glad you said that. 605 00:23:55,080 --> 00:23:58,639 Speaker 1: I personally believe one of the greatest training stimulus is 606 00:23:58,720 --> 00:24:01,240 Speaker 1: is shame and thought of like not being able to 607 00:24:01,240 --> 00:24:03,800 Speaker 1: hold the standard, where like all of a sudden, you're like, man, 608 00:24:03,800 --> 00:24:05,720 Speaker 1: like what if I'm not good enough? And the internal 609 00:24:05,760 --> 00:24:09,240 Speaker 1: shame Like uh, I've told the story on our podcast, 610 00:24:09,400 --> 00:24:12,240 Speaker 1: but I was a pretty fast runner and like like 611 00:24:12,240 --> 00:24:13,920 Speaker 1: when I was in middle school and then I grew 612 00:24:13,960 --> 00:24:17,760 Speaker 1: like four inches and I couldn't run. Like it was 613 00:24:17,840 --> 00:24:20,159 Speaker 1: like literally like I I like went from like you know, 614 00:24:20,960 --> 00:24:23,080 Speaker 1: all of a sudden, like you know, crushing everything, to 615 00:24:23,080 --> 00:24:25,199 Speaker 1: all of a sudden like I'm getting like c's on 616 00:24:25,320 --> 00:24:27,200 Speaker 1: because they would time our runs in the good grade 617 00:24:27,520 --> 00:24:29,480 Speaker 1: and all of a sudden, I was like humiliated. I'm like, 618 00:24:29,520 --> 00:24:30,600 Speaker 1: how am I going to go home and tell my 619 00:24:30,600 --> 00:24:32,639 Speaker 1: mom I got a CMPE because I can't run fast. 620 00:24:33,040 --> 00:24:34,439 Speaker 1: So I asked the teacher and I was like what 621 00:24:34,440 --> 00:24:35,720 Speaker 1: can I do? And she's like, well, if you want 622 00:24:35,720 --> 00:24:37,560 Speaker 1: to stay on Fridays, you can do extra credit runs. 623 00:24:37,720 --> 00:24:39,600 Speaker 1: I'll give you more points you get a better grade. 624 00:24:39,760 --> 00:24:41,080 Speaker 1: So I like lied to my mom. I'm like, hey, 625 00:24:41,080 --> 00:24:43,280 Speaker 1: I got to study extra on Fridays, and then I 626 00:24:43,280 --> 00:24:44,880 Speaker 1: would run extra because I was. 627 00:24:44,880 --> 00:24:47,240 Speaker 2: So humiliated disappointed in yourself. 628 00:24:47,320 --> 00:24:49,320 Speaker 1: Yeah, I was like ten or eleven, twelve years old, 629 00:24:49,359 --> 00:24:52,720 Speaker 1: and I'm like, dude, like I can't. Well, my brothers 630 00:24:52,800 --> 00:24:54,919 Speaker 1: all played football, so but I was just like a 631 00:24:54,920 --> 00:24:57,479 Speaker 1: little bit of shame. And then I realized that like 632 00:24:57,680 --> 00:25:01,439 Speaker 1: that's not a bad thing, like like that's like motivating. Well, uh, 633 00:25:01,560 --> 00:25:03,280 Speaker 1: there's a certain standard that I hold myself to you 634 00:25:03,359 --> 00:25:05,560 Speaker 1: and I have to meet that. 635 00:25:04,080 --> 00:25:08,400 Speaker 2: Sank. That's awesome. Yeah, I mean it's it's intrinsic for us. 636 00:25:08,440 --> 00:25:11,119 Speaker 2: That's because we were just born in that situation, you know. 637 00:25:11,560 --> 00:25:14,840 Speaker 2: And I feel like nowadays it's tough, right, there's a 638 00:25:14,880 --> 00:25:16,840 Speaker 2: balance to it, right, you don't want to belittle or 639 00:25:17,000 --> 00:25:20,920 Speaker 2: you know, you want to somehow develop it for them intrinsically. 640 00:25:21,080 --> 00:25:23,080 Speaker 2: You know. I don't ever shame my kids about that 641 00:25:23,119 --> 00:25:24,479 Speaker 2: type of stuff that you can. 642 00:25:24,640 --> 00:25:26,840 Speaker 1: I like, as a parent, you can't shame them. But 643 00:25:26,880 --> 00:25:28,520 Speaker 1: if they have a little bit, yeah. 644 00:25:28,400 --> 00:25:30,560 Speaker 2: And you're trying to like how do you how do 645 00:25:30,600 --> 00:25:33,640 Speaker 2: you cultivate it? Cultivate it? Right? Yeah? So like Lake, 646 00:25:33,640 --> 00:25:36,120 Speaker 2: when my oldest is starting to play middle school basketball. 647 00:25:36,119 --> 00:25:38,560 Speaker 2: So she's fifth grade and then she plays some garbage 648 00:25:38,600 --> 00:25:41,440 Speaker 2: minutes on sixth grade, and so it's she plays a 649 00:25:41,440 --> 00:25:43,359 Speaker 2: lot on fifth grade and then she'll sit the bench 650 00:25:43,400 --> 00:25:45,600 Speaker 2: on sixth Then you can just see it like stewing 651 00:25:45,680 --> 00:25:48,280 Speaker 2: in her head that she's like wants to be out there, 652 00:25:48,359 --> 00:25:50,480 Speaker 2: and she's like Dad, what you know, Like what do 653 00:25:50,520 --> 00:25:52,919 Speaker 2: I gotta do? I'm like practice, you know, like everything 654 00:25:52,920 --> 00:25:55,879 Speaker 2: comes just natural to her. She's a good athlete, but 655 00:25:56,000 --> 00:25:58,480 Speaker 2: she's just the speed of games way different. Those girls 656 00:25:58,480 --> 00:26:01,040 Speaker 2: have been playing for a while and played serious. Where 657 00:26:01,080 --> 00:26:03,720 Speaker 2: she played rec ball, it was one one Saturday, one 658 00:26:03,760 --> 00:26:05,760 Speaker 2: practice a week, and now she's practicing three or four 659 00:26:05,840 --> 00:26:07,960 Speaker 2: days a week and she's getting good. But it was cool. 660 00:26:08,000 --> 00:26:10,960 Speaker 2: It's cool to see her, like how do I get better? 661 00:26:11,080 --> 00:26:13,359 Speaker 1: And so that for me as a dad, I'm like, hell, yeah, 662 00:26:13,400 --> 00:26:15,680 Speaker 1: I think I have two daughters. I get twin girls, 663 00:26:15,720 --> 00:26:19,320 Speaker 1: and I got a little boy raising daughters.

He was one of his black belts. 833 00:32:29,520 --> 00:32:34,880 Speaker 1: So I called Shanji and he was like, you know 834 00:32:34,920 --> 00:32:36,760 Speaker 1: in typical braziliance. I'll call you back, you know, hear 835 00:32:36,760 --> 00:32:39,440 Speaker 1: from him, and the Brazilians aren't great with time. So 836 00:32:39,520 --> 00:32:41,120 Speaker 1: I ended up taking my daughter up. She's like, I 837 00:32:41,120 --> 00:32:42,960 Speaker 1: want to try jiu jitsu. So I took I took 838 00:32:43,000 --> 00:32:45,280 Speaker 1: her up to Shanji's place litter ju JITs, and we 839 00:32:45,360 --> 00:32:47,000 Speaker 1: just kind of became friends. And then he asked me 840 00:32:47,000 --> 00:32:47,400 Speaker 1: and he's. 841 00:32:47,280 --> 00:32:47,800 Speaker 2: Like, hey, h. 842 00:32:49,280 --> 00:32:51,040 Speaker 1: You're good at lifting weights. And I'm like, I'm all 843 00:32:51,120 --> 00:32:52,600 Speaker 1: right at it. And he's like, I got some young 844 00:32:52,640 --> 00:32:56,560 Speaker 1: guys that are really like high level professionals, but they 845 00:32:56,560 --> 00:32:58,600 Speaker 1: haven't trained. Would you work with them? And so I 846 00:32:58,680 --> 00:33:00,840 Speaker 1: met them and there was like kids in their early 847 00:33:00,840 --> 00:33:03,360 Speaker 1: twenties and like you know, at the time, I didn't 848 00:33:03,400 --> 00:33:04,960 Speaker 1: know anything about jiu jitsu, and I was like they 849 00:33:04,960 --> 00:33:08,120 Speaker 1: were just I didn't know what their skill level was. 850 00:33:08,520 --> 00:33:11,080 Speaker 1: I just know that they are the nicest kids. Like 851 00:33:11,120 --> 00:33:14,840 Speaker 1: I joked that I adopted all these Brazilians, like huge hearts, 852 00:33:14,880 --> 00:33:16,680 Speaker 1: just the nicest kids you would ever want. Like when 853 00:33:16,680 --> 00:33:19,840 Speaker 1: everybody talks about this generation, it's not these these kids. Yeah, 854 00:33:19,880 --> 00:33:23,520 Speaker 1: these kids grew up like in Brazil where like like yeah, 855 00:33:23,600 --> 00:33:26,000 Speaker 1: like like money, like it's just a different class, like 856 00:33:26,040 --> 00:33:29,000 Speaker 1: a different group of human beings. Yeah, like all grew 857 00:33:29,080 --> 00:33:30,800 Speaker 1: up in the church, you know, so they're all like, 858 00:33:30,840 --> 00:33:31,120 Speaker 1: you know. 859 00:33:31,120 --> 00:33:33,320 Speaker 2: Like just solid kids, nicest kids. 860 00:33:33,600 --> 00:33:35,160 Speaker 1: Like people that you would want to have over your house, 861 00:33:35,200 --> 00:33:37,520 Speaker 1: introduce to your family. And uh so I met the 862 00:33:37,560 --> 00:33:39,680 Speaker 1: kids and I was like, let's do it. So I 863 00:33:39,720 --> 00:33:41,720 Speaker 1: worked with them and trained them for two years for 864 00:33:41,760 --> 00:33:44,800 Speaker 1: ADCC and you know, and then at that point I 865 00:33:44,840 --> 00:33:47,280 Speaker 1: thought it was disingenuous that I was training them and 866 00:33:47,320 --> 00:33:49,440 Speaker 1: I didn't know anything about jiu jitsu. So then they 867 00:33:49,440 --> 00:33:51,320 Speaker 1: sucked me in and then I started doing it, and 868 00:33:51,640 --> 00:33:54,120 Speaker 1: it's been really good for me for the fact that 869 00:33:54,160 --> 00:33:57,360 Speaker 1: when football ended, I figured, like that combative style of 870 00:33:57,360 --> 00:33:59,280 Speaker 1: my life it kind of ended, and I would go 871 00:33:59,320 --> 00:34:00,840 Speaker 1: box and stuff, but I wasn't never going to get 872 00:34:00,840 --> 00:34:02,880 Speaker 1: in the ring and compete, so it's just like hitting 873 00:34:02,880 --> 00:34:04,640 Speaker 1: the heavy bag or kind of doing some light stuff. 874 00:34:04,680 --> 00:34:06,320 Speaker 1: And then when I got into JITs and I went 875 00:34:06,360 --> 00:34:09,200 Speaker 1: out there and I was like, oh, like, it's great 876 00:34:09,239 --> 00:34:11,120 Speaker 1: to have something to train for. And I realized what 877 00:34:11,160 --> 00:34:12,680 Speaker 1: I was missing in my life was I just didn't 878 00:34:12,680 --> 00:34:14,680 Speaker 1: have anything to train for. Like you've got into hunting 879 00:34:14,960 --> 00:34:18,200 Speaker 1: and some other things, but you need to have that 880 00:34:18,440 --> 00:34:19,880 Speaker 1: like this is what gets me hundred percent. 881 00:34:19,960 --> 00:34:22,680 Speaker 2: Yeah, especially that's your background, right, that's what you did 882 00:34:22,680 --> 00:34:23,320 Speaker 2: your whole life. 883 00:34:23,440 --> 00:34:26,080 Speaker 1: Yeah and so and then also my wife makes a joke, 884 00:34:26,120 --> 00:34:27,480 Speaker 1: She's like, you wouldn't be into this if you guys 885 00:34:27,480 --> 00:34:29,000 Speaker 1: were even weren't training the best guys in the world 886 00:34:29,200 --> 00:34:32,320 Speaker 1: on hundred percent, Like like a high tide ride rises 887 00:34:32,360 --> 00:34:35,359 Speaker 1: all boats, iron sharpens iron, you know, like I I'd 888 00:34:35,440 --> 00:34:37,680 Speaker 1: like appreciate if it was just some like black belt 889 00:34:37,760 --> 00:34:40,279 Speaker 1: dad dad, bod dude he was teaching stuff I would 890 00:34:40,320 --> 00:34:42,279 Speaker 1: have been in.

Two things. So, the one thing 896 00:34:52,640 --> 00:34:54,440 Speaker 2: we've talked about getting into jiu JITs did you have 897 00:34:54,480 --> 00:34:56,520 Speaker 2: any major injuries or did you have any major you 898 00:34:56,680 --> 00:34:59,279 Speaker 2: got sidelined? You said, but how does that go with 899 00:34:59,400 --> 00:34:59,880 Speaker 2: jiu jitsu? 900 00:35:00,120 --> 00:35:03,400 Speaker 1: Like, so, I have an issue, I have like a 901 00:35:03,400 --> 00:35:04,840 Speaker 1: bone chip in the back of my knee which is 902 00:35:04,880 --> 00:35:07,120 Speaker 1: limiting range of motion, and then. 903 00:35:07,160 --> 00:35:09,560 Speaker 2: I have pain when you get past that range of motion. 904 00:35:09,840 --> 00:35:12,839 Speaker 1: Well, it just stuck. So I was supposed to get 905 00:35:12,840 --> 00:35:15,279 Speaker 1: a surgery like ten years ago, and I just have 906 00:35:15,400 --> 00:35:17,919 Speaker 1: put it off my right now, Okay, I got left 907 00:35:17,960 --> 00:35:20,200 Speaker 1: and then my shoulders stinged up, so I can't put 908 00:35:20,200 --> 00:35:21,360 Speaker 1: my hand over my head anymore. 909 00:35:21,680 --> 00:35:23,600 Speaker 2: We got almost the same thing because I've always like 910 00:35:23,600 --> 00:35:25,399 Speaker 2: I've wanted to try jiu jitsu, but I'm like. 911 00:35:25,920 --> 00:35:29,040 Speaker 1: The and to finish it, hopefully business will give you 912 00:35:29,040 --> 00:35:32,640 Speaker 1: a little bit of solis. Because of the training we do, 913 00:35:33,160 --> 00:35:35,439 Speaker 1: We've found a way to develop incredible range of motion 914 00:35:35,480 --> 00:35:37,759 Speaker 1: in the hips. And so because I've so I'm so 915 00:35:37,840 --> 00:35:40,520 Speaker 1: flexible in my hips, I can cheat everything. So like 916 00:35:40,600 --> 00:35:43,040 Speaker 1: I have like an interesting way that I play where 917 00:35:43,080 --> 00:35:46,040 Speaker 1: people don't know that I'm limited in these ways. So 918 00:35:46,120 --> 00:35:47,840 Speaker 1: the problem is is a lot of guys come in 919 00:35:47,880 --> 00:35:50,920 Speaker 1: that don't have hip flexility, and because they don't have 920 00:35:50,960 --> 00:35:53,520 Speaker 1: that hip flexibility, and they can't really do shit all right. 921 00:35:53,719 --> 00:35:56,120 Speaker 1: And so the other problem too is people really suck 922 00:35:56,200 --> 00:35:58,800 Speaker 1: with like no transverse rotation, so like the ability to 923 00:35:58,840 --> 00:36:01,160 Speaker 1: be here and be able to do frame and it's 924 00:36:01,280 --> 00:36:04,760 Speaker 1: just it just comes down to, like does the training 925 00:36:04,840 --> 00:36:05,439 Speaker 1: allow you. 926 00:36:05,360 --> 00:36:05,600 Speaker 2: To do. 927 00:36:07,200 --> 00:36:10,719 Speaker 1: And I can I'm sure, yeah, I think it's just 928 00:36:10,760 --> 00:36:13,719 Speaker 1: being able to hide it. But like, for example, Victor 929 00:36:13,760 --> 00:36:16,680 Speaker 1: who I trained, was a top ultra. When he came 930 00:36:16,719 --> 00:36:18,920 Speaker 1: to me, he had L four L five to the 931 00:36:18,960 --> 00:36:20,560 Speaker 1: point where it was so crippling that when he went 932 00:36:20,600 --> 00:36:22,960 Speaker 1: to the ADYCC he couldn't fight on his feet. He 933 00:36:23,000 --> 00:36:25,319 Speaker 1: had to literally start on his back and like just 934 00:36:25,360 --> 00:36:27,800 Speaker 1: basically like sit down because he couldn't stand on his feet. 935 00:36:28,200 --> 00:36:30,000 Speaker 1: And he's one of the best in the world off 936 00:36:30,000 --> 00:36:31,960 Speaker 1: of his feet. Now what's weird is if he's on 937 00:36:32,000 --> 00:36:35,360 Speaker 1: his feet, his level athleticism is probably about three or four. Really, 938 00:36:35,440 --> 00:36:37,880 Speaker 1: you put that dude on his butt and he's an eleven. 939 00:36:38,200 --> 00:36:40,680 Speaker 1: I've never seen anybody. It's like, you take that guy 940 00:36:40,680 --> 00:36:42,640 Speaker 1: off his feet, and his ability to move on his 941 00:36:42,719 --> 00:36:44,000 Speaker 1: back and be able to do all these kind of 942 00:36:44,080 --> 00:36:46,239 Speaker 1: understuff for a guy his size is like nothing I've 943 00:36:46,280 --> 00:36:48,800 Speaker 1: ever seen, to the point where he's it's frightening to 944 00:36:49,360 --> 00:36:49,839 Speaker 1: roll with him. 945 00:36:49,880 --> 00:36:50,160 Speaker 2: Really. 946 00:36:50,640 --> 00:36:53,280 Speaker 1: The other day, there's a thing called they called octopus 947 00:36:53,280 --> 00:36:55,239 Speaker 1: guard where you're inside control, and he kind of sat up, 948 00:36:55,280 --> 00:36:57,320 Speaker 1: grabbed his leg and then kind of like got me 949 00:36:57,360 --> 00:36:59,080 Speaker 1: off balance, kicked his leg under and he put it 950 00:36:59,080 --> 00:37:00,560 Speaker 1: hand and did like a Turkish get up with me 951 00:37:00,560 --> 00:37:03,080 Speaker 1: on his hip, and I'm like, like literally like I 952 00:37:03,120 --> 00:37:05,800 Speaker 1: started kind of like, well yeah, because I thought he 953 00:37:05,840 --> 00:37:08,520 Speaker 1: was gonna done because I'm thinking of all that, you know, 954 00:37:08,600 --> 00:37:10,040 Speaker 1: torturing them on the bikes. 955 00:37:09,760 --> 00:37:11,640 Speaker 2: And all the train I'm gonna get this best. 956 00:37:12,440 --> 00:37:13,960 Speaker 1: And I thank god he didn't.

And then I realized, I'm like, man, 1312 00:50:51,840 --> 00:50:52,879 Speaker 1: maybe I'm not country enough. 1313 00:50:53,760 --> 00:50:54,319 Speaker 2: You're eating it. 1314 00:50:54,480 --> 00:50:57,000 Speaker 1: Yeah, oh we always do.

I had 1326 00:51:24,480 --> 00:51:26,359 Speaker 2: a neighbor. One of my neighbors told me he shot 1327 00:51:26,400 --> 00:51:30,080 Speaker 2: a big bodied spike here one year, and I was like, sweet, 1328 00:51:30,440 --> 00:51:32,600 Speaker 2: you know, big bodied spike, bodied spike. 1329 00:51:32,719 --> 00:51:37,239 Speaker 1: Yeah, so yeah, I do need to shoot my bow more. 1330 00:51:37,360 --> 00:51:40,480 Speaker 2: But I find myself like therapeutic.

Yeah, 1336 00:51:54,400 --> 00:51:57,200 Speaker 2: it's beautiful here, and then you know, you got the 1337 00:51:57,200 --> 00:52:00,000 Speaker 2: the stressful part about not shooting the bison behind the target. 1338 00:52:00,120 --> 00:52:01,719 Speaker 2: But other than that, you know, it's pretty good. 1339 00:52:01,760 --> 00:52:04,200 Speaker 1: It's a lot of land to manage. Yeah, I like 1340 00:52:04,280 --> 00:52:06,319 Speaker 1: I so like I said that, we have a little 1341 00:52:06,320 --> 00:52:08,359 Speaker 1: bar and creek cruncher a property and because the old 1342 00:52:08,360 --> 00:52:10,200 Speaker 1: man built a damn it's kind of like capture water. 1343 00:52:10,200 --> 00:52:12,279 Speaker 1: But it's super overgrown and so I have to I've 1344 00:52:12,280 --> 00:52:14,440 Speaker 1: been cleaning this thing out and like have to manage 1345 00:52:14,440 --> 00:52:16,680 Speaker 1: all this land, and like you got to have equipment. 1346 00:52:17,040 --> 00:52:19,160 Speaker 1: I got to have stuff to fix the equipment and 1347 00:52:19,200 --> 00:52:20,560 Speaker 1: like the amount of work that I have to do. 1348 00:52:20,560 --> 00:52:23,520 Speaker 1: When people talk about land, I'm like, yep, I would 1349 00:52:23,560 --> 00:52:25,560 Speaker 1: have land, but I want to have a house about 1350 00:52:25,600 --> 00:52:28,200 Speaker 1: ten miles away that's on a piece of property where 1351 00:52:28,239 --> 00:52:30,000 Speaker 1: I never had, Like literally, I want to have like 1352 00:52:30,440 --> 00:52:32,600 Speaker 1: where I could cut the lawn with like scissors and 1353 00:52:32,640 --> 00:52:35,320 Speaker 1: then and then yeah, and then I want like something 1354 00:52:35,400 --> 00:52:37,640 Speaker 1: like this because we're all on one and then I 1355 00:52:37,680 --> 00:52:39,719 Speaker 1: would just build it. And then because I work on 1356 00:52:39,760 --> 00:52:42,880 Speaker 1: trucks and fabricate, so which is another one, Like if 1357 00:52:42,920 --> 00:52:44,400 Speaker 1: you're gonna have all stuff. Well, you got to be 1358 00:52:44,400 --> 00:52:44,799 Speaker 1: able to weld. 1359 00:52:44,880 --> 00:52:46,719 Speaker 2: Oh, yeah, for sure. So if you can't weld, oh 1360 00:52:46,840 --> 00:52:49,319 Speaker 2: that's why you and Watkins were walking welding. 1361 00:52:49,120 --> 00:52:51,200 Speaker 1: Well and trucks and all that like, because so like 1362 00:52:51,400 --> 00:52:53,279 Speaker 1: that's the greatest way to learn to weld. It's just 1363 00:52:53,280 --> 00:52:55,120 Speaker 1: fabricate off road trucks. 1364 00:52:55,880 --> 00:52:57,160 Speaker 2: Yeah. Yeah, So. 1365 00:52:58,719 --> 00:53:02,440 Speaker 3: I do have a question, So, talking sports specific training, 1366 00:53:02,880 --> 00:53:05,840 Speaker 3: you went from football to all of a sudden just 1367 00:53:06,719 --> 00:53:11,279 Speaker 3: training these are jiu jitsu guys didn't know much about it, right, 1368 00:53:11,320 --> 00:53:15,120 Speaker 3: So just what did you learn in there or immediately said, well, 1369 00:53:15,160 --> 00:53:17,560 Speaker 3: I need to train this differently for these guys compared 1370 00:53:17,560 --> 00:53:18,279 Speaker 3: to So. 1371 00:53:19,760 --> 00:53:22,840 Speaker 1: There was a lot of epiphanies that I had in 1372 00:53:23,120 --> 00:53:27,840 Speaker 1: the training model in that the theories I had about 1373 00:53:27,840 --> 00:53:30,600 Speaker 1: training were one thing. But then when you start going 1374 00:53:30,600 --> 00:53:32,680 Speaker 1: and teaching seminars, and I was very fortunate to teach 1375 00:53:32,680 --> 00:53:35,879 Speaker 1: like hundreds of seminars around the globe, and basically people 1376 00:53:35,880 --> 00:53:37,279 Speaker 1: would show it for the CrossFit deal and I get 1377 00:53:37,320 --> 00:53:38,840 Speaker 1: to put them through to like a two day strength 1378 00:53:38,880 --> 00:53:42,279 Speaker 1: and conditioning I guess you could say diagnostic. And I 1379 00:53:42,320 --> 00:53:45,399 Speaker 1: realized that the people that I was working with were 1380 00:53:45,480 --> 00:53:48,480 Speaker 1: the least athletic versions of themselves. And the reason being 1381 00:53:48,520 --> 00:53:51,720 Speaker 1: is that they'd effectively morphed into something that just looked 1382 00:53:51,719 --> 00:53:55,440 Speaker 1: like saginal playing bilateral hip pinching. And you know, I 1383 00:53:55,520 --> 00:53:57,320 Speaker 1: mean the problem is is that's the way the crossfait 1384 00:53:57,400 --> 00:53:59,719 Speaker 1: was design cross at mainsight is that it was just 1385 00:53:59,760 --> 00:54:03,480 Speaker 1: nothing but bilateral hipinging and a saginal plane. And athleticism 1386 00:54:03,480 --> 00:54:05,760 Speaker 1: happens in three planes of motion, you know, saginal, frontal, 1387 00:54:05,760 --> 00:54:08,759 Speaker 1: and transverse. You know different you know, primal patterns X, 1388 00:54:08,840 --> 00:54:10,919 Speaker 1: y and z access. You can be able to step, 1389 00:54:10,960 --> 00:54:14,320 Speaker 1: squad and lunch, you know, in the different upper body stuff. 1390 00:54:14,360 --> 00:54:15,680 Speaker 1: And so what I did is I looked at the 1391 00:54:15,719 --> 00:54:19,080 Speaker 1: model for sports like let's say, like you know, athleticism, 1392 00:54:19,160 --> 00:54:21,640 Speaker 1: and then I created my own definition of athleticism based 1393 00:54:21,719 --> 00:54:23,799 Speaker 1: upon you know, what we had seen, which was the 1394 00:54:23,800 --> 00:54:27,080 Speaker 1: ability to seemlessly and effortlessly combined primal movement patterns based 1395 00:54:27,080 --> 00:54:29,959 Speaker 1: to accomplish the own or novel task. And based upon 1396 00:54:30,000 --> 00:54:32,880 Speaker 1: that model of athleticism, you know, similar to CrossFit defined fitness, 1397 00:54:32,880 --> 00:54:35,880 Speaker 1: I'd defined athleticism. Now this is where things get really wild. 1398 00:54:36,560 --> 00:54:39,600 Speaker 1: Fitness is personal, right, So to say that fitness is 1399 00:54:39,680 --> 00:54:43,880 Speaker 1: universal is a complete misnomer, right, being like, the fitness 1400 00:54:43,880 --> 00:54:45,720 Speaker 1: that you need to hunt is different than the fitness 1401 00:54:45,719 --> 00:54:47,560 Speaker 1: that you needed to win across the games. So to 1402 00:54:47,600 --> 00:54:49,480 Speaker 1: say that everybody need like has the same degree of 1403 00:54:49,520 --> 00:54:54,080 Speaker 1: fitness just didn't make sense to me. Athleticism it's universal. 1404 00:54:54,400 --> 00:54:57,360 Speaker 1: You can watch somebody. And I told Rory this. I 1405 00:54:57,400 --> 00:54:59,279 Speaker 1: obviously saw you in the cross of games. I'm like, man, 1406 00:54:59,280 --> 00:54:59,880 Speaker 1: this guy's. 1407 00:54:59,800 --> 00:55:00,319 Speaker 2: Kill in it. 1408 00:55:00,560 --> 00:55:03,120 Speaker 1: But I never really I didn't know whether or not 1409 00:55:03,120 --> 00:55:05,320 Speaker 1: you were athletic or not, right, and then I saw 1410 00:55:05,360 --> 00:55:08,080 Speaker 1: you play like a clip of flag football and you 1411 00:55:08,160 --> 00:55:10,279 Speaker 1: rolled out and you threw back across your body, and 1412 00:55:10,320 --> 00:55:13,759 Speaker 1: I was like, he's athletic. Right, So for me, I 1413 00:55:13,800 --> 00:55:16,760 Speaker 1: had to see you do something, do something, do something athletic. 1414 00:55:16,840 --> 00:55:18,759 Speaker 1: I get that just basically going in a front like 1415 00:55:18,800 --> 00:55:20,840 Speaker 1: straight line, just basically suffering. 1416 00:55:20,560 --> 00:55:22,359 Speaker 2: You can't it's not athleticism. 1417 00:55:22,480 --> 00:55:24,759 Speaker 1: Yeah, well, I mean I remember Kalipa right, like they 1418 00:55:24,800 --> 00:55:26,720 Speaker 1: did that zigzag run and he looked like he almost 1419 00:55:26,719 --> 00:55:29,040 Speaker 1: broke his ankles. And like I've trained with Jason, I've 1420 00:55:29,040 --> 00:55:32,200 Speaker 1: seen him and that's not his strong suits, not athleticism. 1421 00:55:32,239 --> 00:55:36,920 Speaker 2: He's our freaking straight forward athlete. But in that you know, 1422 00:55:37,520 --> 00:55:39,040 Speaker 2: you give him one task, right. 1423 00:55:38,960 --> 00:55:42,160 Speaker 1: Yeah, And so what I'm focused on is how do 1424 00:55:42,200 --> 00:55:45,040 Speaker 1: I make the most athletic version of yourself? Because athleticism 1425 00:55:45,040 --> 00:55:46,960 Speaker 1: is the ultimate like pretty girl in the room, right, Like, 1426 00:55:46,960 --> 00:55:48,560 Speaker 1: I'm not a Ferrari guy, but if a front engine 1427 00:55:48,600 --> 00:55:50,480 Speaker 1: B twelve Ferrari pulls up, I'm gonna hear that noise. 1428 00:55:50,480 --> 00:55:52,320 Speaker 1: I'm I'll be like, oh my god, that thing sounds amazing. 1429 00:55:53,320 --> 00:55:55,879 Speaker 1: So athleticism, to me is the gold standard. So how 1430 00:55:55,920 --> 00:55:58,120 Speaker 1: do I take somebody and make a more athletic version 1431 00:55:58,120 --> 00:56:01,040 Speaker 1: of themselves? So when I started training these guys, I 1432 00:56:01,120 --> 00:56:03,879 Speaker 1: knew that they were highly skilled at jiu jitsu, right, 1433 00:56:03,920 --> 00:56:06,239 Speaker 1: but I didn't know how athletic they were. So I 1434 00:56:06,280 --> 00:56:08,720 Speaker 1: put them into the same model because I had always 1435 00:56:08,760 --> 00:56:11,439 Speaker 1: viewed athleticism in terms of like standing on your feet, 1436 00:56:11,480 --> 00:56:13,560 Speaker 1: like imagine a linebacker, you know, being able to move. 1437 00:56:14,160 --> 00:56:16,040 Speaker 1: But now all of a sudden, you talk about people 1438 00:56:16,080 --> 00:56:18,439 Speaker 1: that play a sport that's a more competed, a sport 1439 00:56:18,480 --> 00:56:21,160 Speaker 1: that's like a three sixty gyroscope. They have to be 1440 00:56:21,200 --> 00:56:24,000 Speaker 1: strong in positions which I had never seen, like on 1441 00:56:24,040 --> 00:56:26,480 Speaker 1: your back here and this I mean to play bottom, 1442 00:56:26,480 --> 00:56:28,719 Speaker 1: play top. And so when I put them into the 1443 00:56:28,719 --> 00:56:31,480 Speaker 1: model and then the feedback I got from Shanji is 1444 00:56:31,600 --> 00:56:34,080 Speaker 1: they're strong in positions they should not be strong in. 1445 00:56:34,719 --> 00:56:37,480 Speaker 1: They have something different than what they had before. And 1446 00:56:37,520 --> 00:56:39,040 Speaker 1: that was kind of the piece I knew, and I 1447 00:56:39,120 --> 00:56:42,719 Speaker 1: was like, oh, so athleticism exists. It doesn't matter if 1448 00:56:42,719 --> 00:56:44,759 Speaker 1: you're standing on your feet if on your back. But 1449 00:56:44,840 --> 00:56:47,399 Speaker 1: they also have to have a high level training environment, right, 1450 00:56:47,440 --> 00:56:49,600 Speaker 1: Like the training is one thing, but the sports specific 1451 00:56:50,640 --> 00:56:54,279 Speaker 1: adaptation and who's around you and the competition. These guys 1452 00:56:54,320 --> 00:56:57,799 Speaker 1: have the most competitive training environment I've ever seen, Like 1453 00:56:57,840 --> 00:57:00,239 Speaker 1: I've never seen people going and legitimately try to kill 1454 00:57:00,360 --> 00:57:03,560 Speaker 1: each other for hours. And with that, it's like, you know, 1455 00:57:03,640 --> 00:57:06,080 Speaker 1: I mean, so they have the environment, they have the skill, 1456 00:57:06,160 --> 00:57:08,799 Speaker 1: they have the early adaptation, and they learned all that 1457 00:57:08,840 --> 00:57:10,880 Speaker 1: before they were strong. So I always think too, like 1458 00:57:10,920 --> 00:57:13,320 Speaker 1: Olympic lifting, if somebody's pretty strong when they come to 1459 00:57:13,360 --> 00:57:15,279 Speaker 1: Olympic lifting, they're going to muscle the bar. If they're 1460 00:57:15,320 --> 00:57:17,080 Speaker 1: pretty weak when they start Olympic lifting, they got to 1461 00:57:17,120 --> 00:57:18,400 Speaker 1: figure it out. Then they got to figure it out 1462 00:57:18,440 --> 00:57:20,400 Speaker 1: and then they get strong later. These guys start at 1463 00:57:20,400 --> 00:57:22,200 Speaker 1: such a young age, before they were strong, all they 1464 00:57:22,240 --> 00:57:24,080 Speaker 1: had was technique, and then they grew big and we 1465 00:57:24,120 --> 00:57:27,200 Speaker 1: gave them strength and now they're just savages and like 1466 00:57:27,240 --> 00:57:29,440 Speaker 1: in a good way. I used that word once in 1467 00:57:29,480 --> 00:57:32,040 Speaker 1: this guy. This African dude was like, that's kind of 1468 00:57:32,040 --> 00:57:35,320 Speaker 1: a like not a good word in Africa, and I 1469 00:57:35,360 --> 00:57:36,760 Speaker 1: was like, well, here, if somebody said that guy's a 1470 00:57:36,760 --> 00:57:39,080 Speaker 1: savage in the NFL, but dude's a savage, that's a 1471 00:57:39,080 --> 00:57:41,760 Speaker 1: good thing to us. But yeah, it was just basically, 1472 00:57:43,000 --> 00:57:45,600 Speaker 1: there is a model for athleticism, and that when you 1473 00:57:45,640 --> 00:57:47,800 Speaker 1: put people into the model that we've developed within the 1474 00:57:47,840 --> 00:57:51,880 Speaker 1: training space, I can you know, improve upon that. And 1475 00:57:51,960 --> 00:57:54,440 Speaker 1: then what's also cool with the way that with athleticism 1476 00:57:54,440 --> 00:57:56,640 Speaker 1: the blueprint I created, I can lay that on top 1477 00:57:56,720 --> 00:57:58,760 Speaker 1: of other people's programs and see where they're deficient and 1478 00:57:58,760 --> 00:58:01,040 Speaker 1: then help them. Okay, why can't I do this? We'll 1479 00:58:01,040 --> 00:58:02,600 Speaker 1: show me where you train this. Like one of the 1480 00:58:02,640 --> 00:58:04,920 Speaker 1: ones that we talked a lot about is a hip extension. 1481 00:58:05,160 --> 00:58:07,240 Speaker 1: Hip extensionally happens when you sprint, when the knees behind 1482 00:58:07,240 --> 00:58:07,680 Speaker 1: the glute. 1483 00:58:08,600 --> 00:58:09,000 Speaker 2: That's it. 1484 00:58:09,320 --> 00:58:11,360 Speaker 1: So like just standing up and like closing your hips 1485 00:58:11,360 --> 00:58:14,080 Speaker 1: on a squat's not hip extension. Hip extensionally happens when 1486 00:58:14,080 --> 00:58:16,800 Speaker 1: the knees behind the glute, So how do you train 1487 00:58:16,880 --> 00:58:19,360 Speaker 1: that if you don't sprint like maybe like a Bulgarian 1488 00:58:19,360 --> 00:58:22,040 Speaker 1: split squad, but you have to sprint, you have to 1489 00:58:22,040 --> 00:58:23,600 Speaker 1: do things for your knees behind the glute. Is that's 1490 00:58:23,600 --> 00:58:26,200 Speaker 1: one of the fundamental patterns of athleticism. If you don't 1491 00:58:26,200 --> 00:58:27,920 Speaker 1: do something with a knee behind the glute, then like 1492 00:58:28,000 --> 00:58:30,840 Speaker 1: you're leaving terrible hipps. You're not training a hip extension. 1493 00:58:31,160 --> 00:58:34,000 Speaker 1: And then how would you understand these positions? If I 1494 00:58:34,000 --> 00:58:36,640 Speaker 1: don't understand how to move my trunk and be stable 1495 00:58:36,640 --> 00:58:39,439 Speaker 1: and strong in these different positions, Like if you don't 1496 00:58:39,480 --> 00:58:41,560 Speaker 1: train it or you don't know to train it, then 1497 00:58:41,600 --> 00:58:43,960 Speaker 1: how do you know what you're deficient at. I think 1498 00:58:44,000 --> 00:58:46,480 Speaker 1: what was fascinting about jiu jitsu is that they're constantly 1499 00:58:46,520 --> 00:58:49,000 Speaker 1: looking for like pressure test to where somebody's weak. Can 1500 00:58:49,120 --> 00:58:51,080 Speaker 1: this guy play this garden here? And people get kind 1501 00:58:51,080 --> 00:58:52,680 Speaker 1: of stuck into one side. But I need them be 1502 00:58:52,720 --> 00:58:57,920 Speaker 1: both bilatterally strong and then also never putting them in 1503 00:58:57,920 --> 00:59:00,160 Speaker 1: a situation where we ever take away from who they 1504 00:59:00,160 --> 00:59:02,360 Speaker 1: are in their wheelhouse. It'd be like for you, you know, 1505 00:59:02,480 --> 00:59:04,520 Speaker 1: like you had a wheelhouse that you knew. 1506 00:59:04,320 --> 00:59:07,080 Speaker 2: In that overhead squad and whatever. Yeah it's not as way. 1507 00:59:07,400 --> 00:59:09,000 Speaker 2: Did you get deficient in that? Well? 1508 00:59:09,080 --> 00:59:11,200 Speaker 1: Yeah, but but I mean like you should, like you know, 1509 00:59:11,240 --> 00:59:13,200 Speaker 1: the age old like Ohay's train. Your weaknesses I thought 1510 00:59:13,320 --> 00:59:17,000 Speaker 1: was horseeshit. Yeah, probably my profanity if to use any 1511 00:59:17,000 --> 00:59:19,320 Speaker 1: of it. I didn't know if we were uh you know. 1512 00:59:19,720 --> 00:59:22,400 Speaker 1: But so for me, I was always like I always 1513 00:59:22,400 --> 00:59:25,200 Speaker 1: had fast hands. So I remember I ran in a 1514 00:59:25,280 --> 00:59:27,360 Speaker 1: Michael Strahan at a club in New York years ago 1515 00:59:27,360 --> 00:59:28,800 Speaker 1: and he's like, you know, when we get in there, 1516 00:59:29,200 --> 00:59:30,760 Speaker 1: the one thing they circle you is say when they 1517 00:59:30,840 --> 00:59:33,120 Speaker 1: call you the straw that stirs the drink. But they 1518 00:59:33,120 --> 00:59:35,480 Speaker 1: also are like, your hands are so fast, don't let 1519 00:59:35,480 --> 00:59:37,480 Speaker 1: this guy get his hands on you. And that was 1520 00:59:37,520 --> 00:59:39,040 Speaker 1: what I was. I was fast, Like I could set 1521 00:59:39,080 --> 00:59:42,320 Speaker 1: to a position, bend my knees, and I could shoot 1522 00:59:42,360 --> 00:59:44,240 Speaker 1: my hands and I knew like whether you're not you're 1523 00:59:44,240 --> 00:59:46,240 Speaker 1: playing hot hands or whatever like my brothers and I 1524 00:59:46,240 --> 00:59:48,280 Speaker 1: played that on car trips for hours. So I was 1525 00:59:48,320 --> 00:59:51,840 Speaker 1: always fast hands and like like we did speedback, I 1526 00:59:51,880 --> 00:59:54,280 Speaker 1: did everything to keep my hands fast, and like that 1527 00:59:54,440 --> 00:59:56,880 Speaker 1: was what I you know, quick punch, fast hands. I 1528 00:59:56,920 --> 00:59:59,120 Speaker 1: was never not going to train that, right, So you 1529 00:59:59,240 --> 01:00:01,440 Speaker 1: have to decide. I talk to all the young guys 1530 01:00:01,480 --> 01:00:03,280 Speaker 1: that we train, is like, what's your wheelhouse? What do 1531 01:00:03,320 --> 01:00:05,640 Speaker 1: you do better than anybody else? Let's pour gas on 1532 01:00:05,680 --> 01:00:07,400 Speaker 1: that and then bring the other things up, the other 1533 01:00:07,440 --> 01:00:11,560 Speaker 1: things up as you come. So training athletes is really interesting. 1534 01:00:11,560 --> 01:00:15,240 Speaker 1: And you guys know this like it. Our brains in 1535 01:00:15,280 --> 01:00:18,640 Speaker 1: our eyes are designed to see symmetry, right when you 1536 01:00:18,880 --> 01:00:21,160 Speaker 1: watch somebody move, you know, like somebody can step off 1537 01:00:21,200 --> 01:00:22,760 Speaker 1: of a curb and take Let's just like I watched you, 1538 01:00:22,760 --> 01:00:24,640 Speaker 1: you know, roll out. I watched him roll out and 1539 01:00:24,640 --> 01:00:27,400 Speaker 1: throw across his body and I was like, I've seen 1540 01:00:27,600 --> 01:00:30,320 Speaker 1: athletic people do that, and I've seen unathletic people try 1541 01:00:30,320 --> 01:00:32,320 Speaker 1: to do that. And if it doesn't look seamless and 1542 01:00:32,320 --> 01:00:35,760 Speaker 1: nefferless and not easy, yeah, but you can train that 1543 01:00:35,800 --> 01:00:39,600 Speaker 1: with repetition. And I've watched you know, Tom Brady incredible, 1544 01:00:39,760 --> 01:00:42,720 Speaker 1: but he is able to fool people into thinking he's 1545 01:00:42,720 --> 01:00:45,760 Speaker 1: more athletic than he says because he was so regimented. 1546 01:00:46,040 --> 01:00:47,760 Speaker 1: But like if you watch him, like he probably can't 1547 01:00:47,840 --> 01:00:49,560 Speaker 1: jump over real well. I mean he's better today than 1548 01:00:49,600 --> 01:00:51,920 Speaker 1: he used to be, but like his mechanics and his 1549 01:00:52,040 --> 01:00:54,720 Speaker 1: perfection and his attention detail was like nothing I ever saw. 1550 01:00:54,840 --> 01:00:56,240 Speaker 2: He just doesn't pick stuff up fast. 1551 01:00:56,360 --> 01:00:59,320 Speaker 1: Yeah, but then he but he's so driven. 1552 01:00:59,000 --> 01:01:01,040 Speaker 2: That he would do it. Yeah yeah, he'd figure it out. 1553 01:01:01,240 --> 01:01:03,600 Speaker 1: Whereas I played with other guys that like like I. 1554 01:01:04,280 --> 01:01:07,120 Speaker 1: We had a backup quarterback gun named j Feely, who 1555 01:01:07,240 --> 01:01:09,640 Speaker 1: yeah yeah, so if you saw aj he kind of 1556 01:01:09,640 --> 01:01:12,760 Speaker 1: look like an accountant and he was one of our backups, 1557 01:01:12,760 --> 01:01:14,400 Speaker 1: Like he just like you didn't think he was a 1558 01:01:14,400 --> 01:01:16,240 Speaker 1: football player. And I remember we played in a celebrity 1559 01:01:16,240 --> 01:01:18,120 Speaker 1: golf tournament and like the place we were at out 1560 01:01:18,120 --> 01:01:20,439 Speaker 1: of basketball court, he like went to and like shot 1561 01:01:20,520 --> 01:01:22,360 Speaker 1: this fade away and I was like, wait a minute. 1562 01:01:23,160 --> 01:01:24,800 Speaker 1: I was like where'd that come from? And like I 1563 01:01:24,880 --> 01:01:27,560 Speaker 1: realized he was like he just was unassuming, but it 1564 01:01:27,600 --> 01:01:30,400 Speaker 1: was incredibly athletic and moved really well. And that was 1565 01:01:30,440 --> 01:01:33,040 Speaker 1: the interesting thing. Man. There were guys that like forced 1566 01:01:33,040 --> 01:01:34,760 Speaker 1: their way through it, like putting like a you know, 1567 01:01:34,840 --> 01:01:36,520 Speaker 1: like their shoulder the wind, I'm going to move this rock, 1568 01:01:36,520 --> 01:01:39,120 Speaker 1: and the other people that was just seamless, neverless, gifted, 1569 01:01:40,120 --> 01:01:40,600 Speaker 1: just gifted. 1570 01:01:40,680 --> 01:01:43,880 Speaker 2: So you still watch the NFL I do team. 1571 01:01:43,760 --> 01:01:49,200 Speaker 1: Now, you know, I root four different teams based upon players. 1572 01:01:50,160 --> 01:01:53,240 Speaker 1: So I worked with a kid named Will Fries who 1573 01:01:53,280 --> 01:01:55,280 Speaker 1: came to me and his contract year end up signed 1574 01:01:55,360 --> 01:01:58,720 Speaker 1: five years eighty million. Last year he was he was 1575 01:01:58,760 --> 01:02:00,880 Speaker 1: in the Colts, he went to the Vice King. So 1576 01:02:00,920 --> 01:02:03,080 Speaker 1: now I've been watching him and he's been playing great and. 1577 01:02:03,120 --> 01:02:07,520 Speaker 2: Uh Ions fan. So I was born in Michigan, so yeah, yeah, 1578 01:02:07,880 --> 01:02:10,720 Speaker 2: how'd you get down here? My dad worked for TRW 1579 01:02:11,360 --> 01:02:14,360 Speaker 2: airbag Inflators, moved moved the plant down here, and so 1580 01:02:14,400 --> 01:02:17,040 Speaker 2: we've been here ever since. It's a bad place to 1581 01:02:17,120 --> 01:02:18,880 Speaker 2: end up, No, it's pretty good. So but yeah, I'm 1582 01:02:18,920 --> 01:02:21,960 Speaker 2: a Detroit sports fan, so it's been a rough upbringing. Uh. 1583 01:02:22,320 --> 01:02:24,560 Speaker 1: You know Hank Frayley who played center for me or 1584 01:02:24,840 --> 01:02:26,560 Speaker 1: center next to me at the Eagles CC offense. 1585 01:02:26,320 --> 01:02:29,280 Speaker 2: A line which is awesome. Yeah, they've got a good 1586 01:02:29,280 --> 01:02:33,080 Speaker 2: group there now with Dan and Catain Shepherd and dude. 1587 01:02:33,080 --> 01:02:35,439 Speaker 1: It's they're fun to watch at least. They have a great, 1588 01:02:35,840 --> 01:02:38,040 Speaker 1: great staff and it's a good style of football. 1589 01:02:38,160 --> 01:02:39,120 Speaker 2: Yeah. 1590 01:02:38,640 --> 01:02:42,280 Speaker 1: I love how everything runs in patterns, Like I was 1591 01:02:42,320 --> 01:02:43,320 Speaker 1: watching Scatterboo play. 1592 01:02:43,400 --> 01:02:45,040 Speaker 2: Oh yeah, oh my god. 1593 01:02:45,800 --> 01:02:48,520 Speaker 1: That dude has about a three year expiration. 1594 01:02:48,960 --> 01:02:51,400 Speaker 2: That's what we were saying. I said, yeah, three is high. Yeah, 1595 01:02:51,400 --> 01:02:51,959 Speaker 2: that's a high. 1596 01:02:52,160 --> 01:02:53,760 Speaker 1: He might not make it out of this year. 1597 01:02:53,880 --> 01:02:56,160 Speaker 2: No, And it's fun to watch, Yeah. 1598 01:02:56,640 --> 01:03:00,800 Speaker 1: Dude, it's it's great. I love the fact that I 1599 01:03:00,800 --> 01:03:03,040 Speaker 1: cannot believe that many teams past. 1600 01:03:04,080 --> 01:03:05,440 Speaker 2: I was like, I was watch like I didn't really 1601 01:03:05,480 --> 01:03:07,840 Speaker 2: watch them until we were going we were driving to 1602 01:03:08,360 --> 01:03:13,160 Speaker 2: Oklahoma and we watched that playoff game with Arizona State. 1603 01:03:12,960 --> 01:03:15,520 Speaker 1: And oh h yeah the bowl game they played. 1604 01:03:15,320 --> 01:03:18,480 Speaker 2: Or Texas maybe the first time I ever saw him too, 1605 01:03:18,480 --> 01:03:20,880 Speaker 2: and I was like, I was like, he's puking on 1606 01:03:20,920 --> 01:03:25,760 Speaker 2: the sideline, like I. 1607 01:03:24,200 --> 01:03:26,560 Speaker 1: I was so impressed. And then when I got into 1608 01:03:26,560 --> 01:03:28,000 Speaker 1: the draft and I'm like, I can't believe somebody's not 1609 01:03:28,000 --> 01:03:29,960 Speaker 1: going to take a chance on the r the team's 1610 01:03:29,960 --> 01:03:31,760 Speaker 1: passed up on them, and that kid's running the rock, 1611 01:03:31,880 --> 01:03:33,920 Speaker 1: Like I haven't seen anybody run the rock like that 1612 01:03:33,960 --> 01:03:37,120 Speaker 1: since like John Reggins, John Allstot like I played with 1613 01:03:37,160 --> 01:03:37,800 Speaker 1: guys like that. 1614 01:03:37,920 --> 01:03:39,720 Speaker 2: We just talked about this on a podcast. I was 1615 01:03:39,800 --> 01:03:42,160 Speaker 2: like coming back around to like the full back, you know, 1616 01:03:42,280 --> 01:03:43,959 Speaker 2: tight end full back ish era. 1617 01:03:44,680 --> 01:03:47,920 Speaker 1: So they the the NFL got kind of neutered, you know, 1618 01:03:47,920 --> 01:03:49,960 Speaker 1: it became just like the big pass game, and the 1619 01:03:50,000 --> 01:03:53,480 Speaker 1: problem is that the defenses became so just unwilling to 1620 01:03:53,520 --> 01:03:55,920 Speaker 1: hit anybody. Yep that I think now that like the 1621 01:03:56,000 --> 01:03:58,280 Speaker 1: offenses are like, well, the defenses are soft because we're 1622 01:03:58,280 --> 01:04:00,200 Speaker 1: nervous hit anybody. Let's just put a big full back there. 1623 01:04:00,240 --> 01:04:00,439 Speaker 2: Yeah. 1624 01:04:00,440 --> 01:04:02,160 Speaker 1: So now you see teams actually running a full back 1625 01:04:02,520 --> 01:04:04,040 Speaker 1: just like, I can't believe. This is the best. 1626 01:04:04,120 --> 01:04:05,920 Speaker 2: Yeah, this is the football. I like, there's a football 1627 01:04:05,960 --> 01:04:07,680 Speaker 2: you like, Yeah. 1628 01:04:07,120 --> 01:04:13,560 Speaker 1: It's it's great to see the Yeah, it's like I 1629 01:04:13,640 --> 01:04:16,080 Speaker 1: do like watching pro football. And the biggest reason now too, 1630 01:04:16,240 --> 01:04:19,120 Speaker 1: is just they have so many cameras.
