Speaker 1: My cat Larry even came in this morning to just
Speaker 1: look at me, smugly stare at me. I could tell
Speaker 1: he was judging me. I was like, judge away, you
Speaker 1: don't know what it's like at fifty three. You gotta
Speaker 1: get out of bed, stop burning fat, getting too shape.
Speaker 2: That's very It's okay, Pedoton crew, let's go. Let's go,
Speaker 2: pedal b b bum. I'm trying to do it as
Speaker 2: four am right now, and it's fraightly aft. Is there
Speaker 2: a word for being impressed and also depressed at the
Speaker 2: same time. Yeah, that's me. That's it. Paradox of life.
Speaker 1: However, the buzz I feel once the ordeal is over,
Speaker 1: I've noticed, Oh my god, I feel like I go
Speaker 1: and cure the common gold.
Speaker 2: You've got a lot of inage. I've got to go
Speaker 2: because you know what I think I read last week.
Speaker 1: That actually is a good thing to do as soon
Speaker 1: as you get out of bed, go and have some
Speaker 1: pro to and then go and work out, right because
Speaker 1: actually you're telling yourself you can do something really hard
Speaker 1: immediately it's horrible, it's unpleasant. You push to resistance because
Speaker 1: first ten or fifteen minutes, even this smaller was like,
Speaker 1: I'm going to stop doing this. I'll do it tomorrow.
Speaker 1: It's the first week Barack after Nissa. But you know
Speaker 1: those stories, you're negotiating, you're starting negotiating with yourself. Why
Speaker 1: don't you go and have a cup of tea in
Speaker 1: a cookie right now? That actually would be a nice
Speaker 1: thing to do at four a rather than peddling for
Speaker 1: the next forty five minutes sweating any garage alone in
Speaker 1: the dark in a horrible way.
Speaker 2: It cold, But you know what's a great way to
Speaker 2: warm up. Get on an exercise bike. How long does
Speaker 2: it take to start not feeling horrible? Twenty minutes, my lord,
Speaker 2: at a twenty minutes.
Speaker 1: Slight, and then you're looking at the clock thinking a minute,
Speaker 1: only a minute has gone, and that's felt like ten minutes.
Speaker 2: Oh god, it's like dog years.
Speaker 1: But I have to say I feel more energized than
Speaker 1: I normally do at this time of.
Speaker 2: The day, disciplined to do that.
Speaker 1: Yeah, it's hard patched, but I'll tell you what is that.
Speaker 1: Pushing through that resistance, you still need to do it.
Speaker 1: Ria was talking about hurting it, hurting your shoulder. That
Speaker 1: the real reason I'm going on this health keep now.
Speaker 1: I hit fifty three two weeks ago. I tore my
Speaker 1: part of a rotor cuff last year on holiday with
Speaker 1: the kids, super sperinatus. Then I did a really dumb thing.
Speaker 1: I never went to go get it treated. I just
Speaker 1: thought it would somehow get better. I don't know how right,
Speaker 1: And it was an actual it was diagnosed as a tear,
Speaker 1: and so I didn't I didn't go to get it treated.
Speaker 1: I thought this could get better until January when I
Speaker 1: realized it was a lot of pain, it was getting worse.
Speaker 1: And then I did a very very bad thing that
Speaker 1: you shouldn't do any middle ages.
Speaker 2: I stopped going to the gym. And here's what I've learned.
