Speaker 1: all goes back to good health, a good health and

50
00:02:46,520 --> 00:02:49,280
Speaker 1: good good lifestyle. And that's the that's the core of

51
00:02:49,360 --> 00:02:52,320
Speaker 1: how you operate. Because your popularity on you know, your

52
00:02:52,560 --> 00:02:55,560
Speaker 1: powerful social media plan. And then like friends of mine,

53
00:02:55,600 --> 00:02:58,919
Speaker 1: like Stephen A. Smith, you know, they they they screamed,

54
00:02:59,000 --> 00:03:02,400
Speaker 1: they screen your the positives about you, even the relationship.

55
00:03:02,520 --> 00:03:04,600
Speaker 1: When I had Morris on the show, Morris Chest on

56
00:03:04,639 --> 00:03:06,480
Speaker 1: the show talking about the book which we are we

57
00:03:06,560 --> 00:03:10,200
Speaker 1: will get into detail. It's about what what started all that?

58
00:03:10,360 --> 00:03:13,160
Speaker 1: What you know, what started you into this this this

59
00:03:13,240 --> 00:03:16,720
Speaker 1: program of fitness? Well you know what. I started off

60
00:03:16,720 --> 00:03:19,360
Speaker 1: as an athlete. I was at tracking basketball athlete in

61
00:03:19,400 --> 00:03:22,000
Speaker 1: high school and college. I was a school record holder

62
00:03:22,040 --> 00:03:24,120
Speaker 1: at cow State Fullerton. I had a hundred or two

63
00:03:24,160 --> 00:03:27,160
Speaker 1: months before and the relay. So um, I've always been

64
00:03:27,160 --> 00:03:29,600
Speaker 1: an athlete, but I was a skinny, scrawny kid. So

65
00:03:29,919 --> 00:03:33,079
Speaker 1: I made fun of um. And so what motivated me

66
00:03:33,120 --> 00:03:35,320
Speaker 1: to get in the fitness and sculp my body and

67
00:03:35,360 --> 00:03:38,400
Speaker 1: build my body was was being made fun of and

68
00:03:38,440 --> 00:03:40,920
Speaker 1: then people saying you're scrawny, you're skinny or whatever. And

69
00:03:40,960 --> 00:03:43,880
Speaker 1: so once I was able to build my body, I

70
00:03:44,040 --> 00:03:46,640
Speaker 1: just had a huge motivation to desire to want to

71
00:03:46,640 --> 00:03:49,880
Speaker 1: help others. And what I try to teach people, it's

72
00:03:49,920 --> 00:03:52,640
Speaker 1: not about you trying to look like me. It's trying

73
00:03:52,640 --> 00:03:55,440
Speaker 1: to It's about you being the best version of yourself.

74
00:03:55,640 --> 00:03:59,080
Speaker 1: Because we all have our own DNA and the reality

75
00:03:59,200 --> 00:04:02,160
Speaker 1: is that there's some people will never have my abs

76
00:04:02,240 --> 00:04:04,920
Speaker 1: or my biceps in my back, but you can't be

77
00:04:04,960 --> 00:04:08,160
Speaker 1: the best version of yourself d N A Y. And

78
00:04:08,320 --> 00:04:11,120
Speaker 1: that's what I try to teach scope your best body,

79
00:04:11,480 --> 00:04:13,880
Speaker 1: you know what I mean. And that's really important. And

80
00:04:14,040 --> 00:04:16,359
Speaker 1: because of the fact that it's about motivation and about

81
00:04:16,360 --> 00:04:18,599
Speaker 1: looking in the mirror at you, and it's called you

82
00:04:18,640 --> 00:04:21,320
Speaker 1: can win not I ways tell if everybody has a

83
00:04:21,320 --> 00:04:23,919
Speaker 1: different story to success. And that's what you're telling me, Rashan.

84
00:04:24,360 --> 00:04:26,479
Speaker 1: You know, because we laughed about me saying stick in

85
00:04:26,480 --> 00:04:28,280
Speaker 1: my head on your body, rasha that's not your goal.

86
00:04:28,560 --> 00:04:30,479
Speaker 1: Your goal is to be the best you. And that's

87
00:04:30,480 --> 00:04:34,240
Speaker 1: the motivational factor that keeps everybody you know realized think

88
00:04:34,240 --> 00:04:37,520
Speaker 1: can reach it correct. A lot of times people will

89
00:04:37,600 --> 00:04:41,040
Speaker 1: quit because they're not able to they're not able to

90
00:04:41,080 --> 00:04:46,200
Speaker 1: look like a certain person that quit and they're improving

91
00:04:46,200 --> 00:04:49,239
Speaker 1: and they're getting better, but because they're not getting the results,

92
00:04:49,360 --> 00:04:52,480
Speaker 1: is someone they see on Instagram, they just quit. And

93
00:04:52,920 --> 00:04:55,560
Speaker 1: it always I'm always it always bothers me because I'm

94
00:04:55,600 --> 00:04:59,240
Speaker 1: just like, look, you're you have. Everyone has a everyone

95
00:04:59,279 --> 00:05:01,920
Speaker 1: has a different DNA what God gave us, and some

96
00:05:02,000 --> 00:05:04,719
Speaker 1: of us are never going to look like a Lebron

97
00:05:04,839 --> 00:05:07,520
Speaker 1: change or play basketball like him, or have apps like

98
00:05:07,680 --> 00:05:10,280
Speaker 1: me or you know, it looked like Morris, you know.

99
00:05:10,360 --> 00:05:12,520
Speaker 1: But you can't be the best version of yourself. And

100
00:05:12,560 --> 00:05:16,240
Speaker 1: if you if you truly optimize your genetic potential, your

101
00:05:16,279 --> 00:05:19,960
Speaker 1: genetic potential, you wont you succeeded. That's that's a that's

102
00:05:20,000 --> 00:05:23,800
Speaker 1: a huge accomplishment. Now here's a I wrote this down

315
00:16:21,000 --> 00:16:23,760
Speaker 1: to tell you something. If it was very important that uh,

316
00:16:23,840 --> 00:16:26,720
Speaker 1: when I first went on to diet Obi, is that,

317
00:16:26,840 --> 00:16:29,000
Speaker 1: uh you know I would eight. I went out in

318
00:16:29,080 --> 00:16:32,240
Speaker 1: shop normal. You know. I went out there because your

319
00:16:32,440 --> 00:16:33,880
Speaker 1: book tells you what you can get. You know you

320
00:16:33,880 --> 00:16:36,440
Speaker 1: can get it says, you know, buffalo wings, wavers, run

321
00:16:36,520 --> 00:16:40,080
Speaker 1: chair olds, you can need Uh, carne taco, steak, turkey, chicken.

322
00:16:40,520 --> 00:16:42,200
Speaker 1: You know, they have these little cheap meals that you

323
00:16:42,200 --> 00:16:43,920
Speaker 1: can do it that like I talked about, but small,

324
00:16:43,960 --> 00:16:46,160
Speaker 1: you know, fried chicken and all that, all those things.

325
00:16:46,160 --> 00:16:49,120
Speaker 1: So I went out there and I shopped, and I'll

326
00:16:49,120 --> 00:16:52,000
Speaker 1: tell you something, man, the food that I normally would have,

327
00:16:52,280 --> 00:16:55,440
Speaker 1: that I normally buy lasted me for three weeks. And

328
00:16:55,480 --> 00:16:57,320
Speaker 1: some stuff I had to go away, had to throw

329
00:16:57,320 --> 00:17:04,480
Speaker 1: away because they let me know I was too much. Right, Yeah, absolutely,

330
00:17:04,520 --> 00:17:06,760
Speaker 1: that's what happened. Sometimes when you start to eat healthy,

331
00:17:06,880 --> 00:17:09,800
Speaker 1: sometimes it feels like, man, I can't eat. I can't

332
00:17:09,840 --> 00:17:12,840
Speaker 1: finish all this food. You know, because it's true nutrients,

333
00:17:12,920 --> 00:17:15,680
Speaker 1: it's not dense nutrients. We know all the thing about

334
00:17:15,720 --> 00:17:18,600
Speaker 1: it was like I can started asking myself, why why

335
00:17:18,640 --> 00:17:21,680
Speaker 1: am I eating all this food? And your book, your

336
00:17:21,720 --> 00:17:24,800
Speaker 1: book helped me understand that I wanted. I wanted to

337
00:17:24,800 --> 00:17:27,880
Speaker 1: say that I can't say extreme. This is extreme turnt.

338
00:17:28,000 --> 00:17:31,320
Speaker 1: I was killing myself because I was just putting stuff

339
00:17:31,320 --> 00:17:34,080
Speaker 1: in my body my body didn't even need. And here's

340
00:17:34,119 --> 00:17:36,480
Speaker 1: the here's the cool thing about it. And I gotta

341
00:17:36,520 --> 00:17:39,520
Speaker 1: tell everybody me losing that when I got down to

342
00:17:39,600 --> 00:17:42,840
Speaker 1: tin my workouts got easier because guess what, I wasn't

343
00:17:42,880 --> 00:17:45,520
Speaker 1: working out with ten pounds. When I got down to

344
00:17:45,600 --> 00:17:48,479
Speaker 1: fifteen my workouts in fact, you know, I went from

345
00:17:48,560 --> 00:17:51,600
Speaker 1: three reps to four and some of them I was

346
00:17:51,600 --> 00:17:54,200
Speaker 1: doing on dips I was doing I was doing fifteen.

347
00:17:54,200 --> 00:17:59,199
Speaker 1: I went to per set because I was lighter. You

348
00:17:59,200 --> 00:18:01,560
Speaker 1: were lighter, you more and you had more energy, You

349
00:18:01,600 --> 00:18:04,880
Speaker 1: had more endurance. And that's what happens when you when

350
00:18:04,920 --> 00:18:07,080
Speaker 1: you were leaning. When you drop more weight, you're able

351
00:18:07,080 --> 00:18:09,720
Speaker 1: to you have more energy to function throughout the day.

352
00:18:09,800 --> 00:18:13,560
Speaker 1: And so um, that's all part of the process, you know,

353
00:18:13,640 --> 00:18:15,880
Speaker 1: and and the whole exercise thing. And you start with

354
00:18:15,920 --> 00:18:17,639
Speaker 1: what you can do. That's why you have we at

355
00:18:17,640 --> 00:18:20,040
Speaker 1: the beginner and the intermediate and the advance, and you

356
00:18:20,160 --> 00:18:22,960
Speaker 1: got the gym and home exercise so you can pick

357
00:18:23,560 --> 00:18:26,080
Speaker 1: you know what what is uh? You know what's convenient

358
00:18:26,160 --> 00:18:28,320
Speaker 1: for your lifestyle. I know I knew you weren't ready

359
00:18:28,359 --> 00:18:30,320
Speaker 1: for the Obie. I know you were ready for you

360
00:18:30,520 --> 00:18:32,199
Speaker 1: just a tip you call to do an interview with

361
00:18:32,600 --> 00:18:34,679
Speaker 1: well on my show. You wouldn't ready for me. Just

362
00:18:34,720 --> 00:18:37,280
Speaker 1: smash you with sixteen pounds. Laws you wouldn't ready. You

363
00:18:37,280 --> 00:18:40,240
Speaker 1: know what man, I was. I was not ready for that. Man.

364
00:18:40,280 --> 00:18:42,240
Speaker 1: I thought maybe you stupid about a week or two,

365
00:18:42,320 --> 00:18:44,400
Speaker 1: and then then you call the day man. So I'm

366
00:18:44,440 --> 00:18:47,080
Speaker 1: just flattered and arnored. Man. You you're following through. Man.

367
00:18:47,119 --> 00:18:49,280
Speaker 1: The fact that you dropped that amount of waiting such

368
00:18:49,280 --> 00:18:51,920
Speaker 1: a short amount of time is U is really uh

369
00:18:52,040 --> 00:18:54,520
Speaker 1: makes me feel really good because it works ten pounds

370
00:18:54,560 --> 00:18:56,439
Speaker 1: a pound of day. That's called the cut. Let's just

371
00:18:56,440 --> 00:19:00,000
Speaker 1: talk about you some of your nutrition supplements that you've created.

372
00:19:01,760 --> 00:19:04,280
Speaker 1: I just started a new supplement line called Obi Strong

373
00:19:04,400 --> 00:19:06,480
Speaker 1: and with a couple of business partners in mind. The

374
00:19:06,480 --> 00:19:08,560
Speaker 1: reason why I decided to do it because I was

375
00:19:08,600 --> 00:19:12,360
Speaker 1: disgusted with the supplement industry in general, uh, the fraud

376
00:19:12,560 --> 00:19:15,920
Speaker 1: and the fillers and the overloaded of stimulants. And I

377
00:19:16,600 --> 00:19:18,920
Speaker 1: stopped taking supplements a couple of years ago because I

378
00:19:18,960 --> 00:19:21,880
Speaker 1: couldn't trust the ingredients in the products. And I really

379
00:19:21,920 --> 00:19:24,679
Speaker 1: want to make the industry better. Um, And so I

380
00:19:24,720 --> 00:19:27,880
Speaker 1: decided to start this line with some business partners of mine,

381
00:19:27,880 --> 00:19:32,960
Speaker 1: and natural natural ingredient line that had no stimulants onceoever.

382
00:19:33,320 --> 00:19:36,800
Speaker 1: UM all the all of the ingredients are all natural,

383
00:19:36,840 --> 00:19:41,160
Speaker 1: gluten free, low sodium, low sugar, UM and everyone loves

384
00:19:41,160 --> 00:19:44,119
Speaker 1: the products. We have a Obie Slim. It's an appetite

385
00:19:44,119 --> 00:19:48,119
Speaker 1: suppressing supplement that has a digestive enzyme blend that actually

386
00:19:48,160 --> 00:19:50,880
Speaker 1: allows you to absorb all of the nutrients and helps

387
00:19:50,880 --> 00:19:54,280
Speaker 1: the digest properly and it prevents you from overeating. It

388
00:19:54,280 --> 00:19:57,000
Speaker 1: signals your body. And we had I have a lady

389
00:19:57,040 --> 00:19:59,439
Speaker 1: that I lost twenty pounds in one month taking Obie

390
00:19:59,520 --> 00:20:02,680
Speaker 1: Slim along with my diet and all the only exercise

391
00:20:02,720 --> 00:20:07,200
Speaker 1: he did was walk walk with me. We got way protein,

392
00:20:07,280 --> 00:20:11,480
Speaker 1: we got Obi Stein pre workout, no jitters whatsoever, and

393
00:20:11,560 --> 00:20:14,800
Speaker 1: Obi Healthy Heart. In fact, Dominique Wilkins he takes our products.

394
00:20:14,840 --> 00:20:17,240
Speaker 1: He loved it. And he's not sponsored at all, but

395
00:20:17,359 --> 00:20:18,760
Speaker 1: he tried it out and he loved it and gave

396
00:20:18,760 --> 00:20:20,879
Speaker 1: it to the Atlanta Hawks and stuff, and so Morris

397
00:20:20,960 --> 00:20:23,679
Speaker 1: loves it. Um. So we're gonna blow this thing up,

398
00:20:23,720 --> 00:20:26,600
Speaker 1: this whole Obie Strong thing. So I'm very excited about it,

399
00:20:26,760 --> 00:20:31,159
Speaker 1: and so work. Where can he find a product? Go

403
00:20:40,240 --> 00:20:43,280
Speaker 1: And I'll never tell anybody to buy the supplements and

404
00:20:43,280 --> 00:20:46,000
Speaker 1: and don't exercise, and and and and and and eat right.

405
00:20:46,119 --> 00:20:48,879
Speaker 1: That's anyone that tells you that that's fraudulent. You know,

406
00:20:48,920 --> 00:20:50,960
Speaker 1: you still have to do all the right things. The

407
00:20:51,040 --> 00:20:53,640
Speaker 1: supplement is meant to assist you. That's what it's meant

408
00:20:53,640 --> 00:20:56,639
Speaker 1: to do, assist, not replace eating food. And that's why

409
00:20:56,680 --> 00:20:58,200
Speaker 1: I was just that's why I wanted you just keep

410
00:20:58,200 --> 00:21:01,639
Speaker 1: telling everybody that I've I've done this being a regular guy,

411
00:21:02,080 --> 00:21:03,600
Speaker 1: a regular guy, because a lot of people can look

412
00:21:03,600 --> 00:21:05,399
Speaker 1: at me at being a celebrity and oh, you know what,

413
00:21:05,520 --> 00:21:07,800
Speaker 1: Sean probably got a trainer. No I don't, No, I don't.

414
00:21:07,880 --> 00:21:10,439
Speaker 1: I don't have a trainer. No. This book allowed me

415
00:21:10,520 --> 00:21:14,719
Speaker 1: to be Rashwan and figuring myself out and figure out

416
00:21:14,720 --> 00:21:17,439
Speaker 1: who Sean was out and lose weight accordingly. That's what

417
00:21:17,480 --> 00:21:19,680
Speaker 1: you were saying at the very beginning of the interview.

418
00:21:19,880 --> 00:21:23,000
Speaker 1: Don't be o B B. Rashaw. It's about every day

419
00:21:23,040 --> 00:21:26,359
Speaker 1: It's about transforming every day real people. That's what it's about.

420
00:21:26,359 --> 00:21:29,040
Speaker 1: Of course, myself and Morrison on the cover, and Morris

421
00:21:29,119 --> 00:21:31,120
Speaker 1: is kind of the the guinea pig, but it's really

422
00:21:31,160 --> 00:21:33,240
Speaker 1: about you know. That's why we did a focus group

423
00:21:33,240 --> 00:21:35,399
Speaker 1: on regular people on the back of the cover because

424
00:21:35,960 --> 00:21:39,080
Speaker 1: people can identify with a regular, every day after day person.

425
00:21:39,119 --> 00:21:41,320
Speaker 1: Then maybe some celebrity out there that got in shape

426
00:21:41,359 --> 00:21:44,760
Speaker 1: for a movie. And that's what it's you know, Um,
