Episode Transcript

Speaker 1 (00:09):
All right, we're going to talk about top fitness trends
for twenty twenty five. We got Dean with us again
and I actually pulled up two kind of legit articles.
So if you guys can come up with some bullshit ones,
that'd be really good.

Speaker 2 (00:26):
Sure, I'm sure we can find a good AI generated article.

Speaker 1 (00:31):
Speaking of of AI generated articles, this one is from
the American Council on Exercise ACEE. Their number one was
Artificial Intelligence AI is now central to fitness, from AI
driven personal training apps to virtual group exercise platforms, and

(00:51):
enables hyper personalized fitness plans, helps trainers scale their businesses,
and provides real time feedback through wearables and smart devices. However,
this trend presents a challenge to exercise professionals to maintain
a unique human touch through motivation and relationship building, qualities
that AI cannot replicate.

Speaker 3 (01:13):
Yeah, I mean that's fine, Like what does that even mean?
I don't know, because, like apps have been the coolest thing.
There is one app that there's multiple versions of them.
There's one that I spoke with, but then I found
out there's multiple of them that is I think based
on AI, which I do think is a step forward.
And what we actually could use. So it's a calorie

(01:34):
tracker style app, except you can take a picture of
your place.

Speaker 1 (01:38):
Yeah yeah, I've got that one somewhere.

Speaker 3 (01:41):
It'll push into your full macro and allotment breakdown.

Speaker 2 (01:45):
That would make it heat. That would be fucking amazing
if that works flawless.

Speaker 3 (01:47):
Like I think it works pretty damn good. And it
does make sense right, like you just need some kind
of AI to image match is a chicken breast or
chicken thigh. And then I mean our phones have the
measuring right, it has like a room in there, so
if you can measure size, you can measure volume. So
it makes sense that it's doable. And there are multiple
apps with it, and so that's something like I could

(02:09):
see people actually needing and using How.

Speaker 2 (02:11):
Does it get like thickness and like all that.

Speaker 3 (02:13):
I mean a picture again, if you have a measurement,
you probably have to put it within a certain square
of the thing and the ass No, no, it's just
a picture.

Speaker 2 (02:21):
It sucks.

Speaker 3 (02:22):
Tracking is a pain in the ass when you have
no clue.

Speaker 2 (02:25):
Yeah, I mean you got to have a food scale, man.

Speaker 3 (02:27):
I know that's why this you don't. I think it's
probably I don't know. They'll probably make up some number,
but I bet you it's over eighty five percent accurate.

Speaker 2 (02:34):
I've gotten so good at like facet at tracking with
the scale that I don't know.

Speaker 3 (02:37):
Yeah, but you've never been fat either. Tracking is not
like your issue exactly your you know, that's not your
achilles heel.

Speaker 1 (02:46):
There's that.

Speaker 2 (02:46):
Yeah, it's for the opposite size.

Speaker 3 (02:48):
Yeah, yeah, yeah, but you know what I mean, No.

Speaker 2 (02:51):
I get Yeah. I think for the average Joe, it
probably huge because if you're.

Speaker 3 (02:54):
Teaching clients, you know, like how to track and ship
like it does, it becomes like a whole chore. Like
you have to teach them math, you have to teach
them nutrition, and then you have to where if they
could just take a pick and they know they got
to hit fifty protein per meal, Oh that pick doesn't
have it, ad more chicken, take another pick like it's
it's it really pushes things forward.

Speaker 2 (03:10):
Yeah.

Speaker 3 (03:10):
I didn't want to shout anybody out because I already
well because I talked to these bitches.

Speaker 1 (03:14):
Okay, yeah that's the one.

Speaker 3 (03:16):
Yeah, they're gonna pays them.

Speaker 2 (03:17):
Yeah, fuck you guys, No, that isn't the one.

Speaker 3 (03:19):
There's there's like four that's what made me one not
work with them, and then two they're jipping me. Oh really,
but there's yeah, there's like three with kind of the
same name, something AI. Okay, something a I and.

Speaker 2 (03:29):
Take a picture of your stack and the food.

Speaker 3 (03:31):
And yeah, and I think that's actually a good AI use,
that's actually you know, usable. Yeah, because with Jim and
I have done these lists for years now, they're always
like apps and technology or the future, Like what the
fuck does that mean?

Speaker 2 (03:43):
That doesn't have I agree that it can definitely help,
but people want to be a part of something still
for sure that's not going to go away, Like I
want to Oh, we're all on this like my sound
of my community program together and we're talking about it
and we're like part of this thing. Yeah you know
what I mean, Like that's what people still want. Then
it's want this like soulless app thing.

Speaker 3 (04:02):
And even the people that don't know they want that
and don't know how to find success in fitness, they
need that because like me and Kyle we're talking about yesterdays,
you know, we're really into crypto and bitcoin and AI
and kind of reading what's next, Like the one thing
that won't go away if you want success in your
fitness goals is you have to be set yourself up
in the right environment. And that'll just never go away, right,

(04:25):
because environments always going to be a physical thing. It's
not gonna be on the internet. It's not gonna be
an app. It's not gonna be a watch. It's not
gonna be the new protein shake. It might be like
a new fitness trend. You know, we've given our the
roses to CrossFit in what it has done and deserved,
which is the community aspect. It is the niche expd
of hanging out with some semi legitimate lifting.

Speaker 2 (04:46):
It's not the thing I think kind of just stick
on the cross with thing really fast. It's not necessarily
like groundbreaking shit. It's the fact that you have accountability.

Speaker 3 (04:56):
Uh, the community.

Speaker 2 (04:57):
It's not it's a it's a It changes from a
chore to a lifestyle. How can you get your fitness
goal and your fitness training to a lifestyle not a
chore or a burden? Right, And that's always going to be,
like you just said, community and being around people physically.

Speaker 3 (05:12):
It can't be like a chapter of a book you close.
It has to be like part of your book, right,
like you can't just like go to a robus class
and then go home and slam pizza, right, Like, You're
gonna have to buy in, and the only way to
do that is to be around people in an environment
that are also bought in the issue is, Yeah, how
do we buy in? You know, nine hundred million Americans
or whatever the fuck? You know, Like that's the hard part.

Speaker 1 (05:33):
Yeah, I would agree. That's the people people who can
work out on their own and sustain that or kind
of unicorns.

Speaker 2 (05:42):
I don't know.

Speaker 3 (05:42):
Yeah, they're not the ones. They're not the ones we're
talking about, right, because they enjoy it or they are
bodybuilding competitive or just what you do. Yeah, which is easy,
But yeah, how do we get that? How do we
get the average Joe to change somewhat of a lifestyle?
And I think part of it is through the CrossFit
style where like you're having fun because you're with your homies, right, Like,
how do you change any habit? Well, having fun is
probably the easiest if you enjoy it. It's easy to

(06:04):
do a habit.

Speaker 2 (06:04):
Right. It took me fifteen years to be able to
just like work out my garage every day. Right, It
wasn't like an overnight thing, right, Yeah, it just became
a part of my life where like, this is just
what I do every day. It's the lifestyle work out.
I fucking go to work, I do this, I do that.
I try and you good most of the time. You know,
it just becomes like what you do.

Speaker 1 (06:23):
And the garage gym thing has grown over the you know,
from pandemic forward. But the reality of that is you
don't really save money. You might save time, yeah, but.

Speaker 2 (06:35):
In a place like me where there's really not another option.

Speaker 3 (06:37):
And those like those are meatheads too.

Speaker 2 (06:39):
No.

Speaker 3 (06:40):
Gen Pop maybe bought a treadmill for the home, but
Gen Pop didn't build a gym in their garage.

Speaker 2 (06:44):
No, they bought a fucking peloton.

Speaker 3 (06:46):
Yeah. Yeah, the meatheads built a garage because they again,
like you, they've been in at their whole life. And yeah,
I realized the habits I have to do on my
own or Bart Bart's still trains six am every day
in his backyard, Like that's a rare breed, but because
I do. Yeah, that's the issue with tech and AI,
Like I don't think it's gonna it's and I'm not
against AI or TECH by any means, but it's just

(07:06):
not changing the brain of an individual's habits.

Speaker 2 (07:09):
No, it's like another pill, like I'll take this pill,
you're gonna lose.

Speaker 3 (07:13):
Weight, yeah, or a ring. Yeah, put the ring on,
and now you change your life. Yeah, Like no it's not. Yeah,
it literally won't. It literally won't. And it might help
like the competitive athlete or the person on the edge,
because I'm even for that too, like I used to
do it when I'm in a slump, Like I'll go
buy new fucking sneakers to make me want to work
out harder, you know, like.

Speaker 2 (07:30):
Running shoes or something.

Speaker 1 (07:31):
Yeah.

Speaker 3 (07:31):
Yeah, getting a little excited about It's different than Yeah,
you're right. I think all the tech and all the
commercials and even Peloton to an extent, is selling like
a pill.

Speaker 2 (07:40):
It's bullshit.

Speaker 3 (07:41):
Yeah, it sucks.

Speaker 2 (07:41):
You're selling. You're looking for the people that are looking
for the quick fix, the quick out that's there. That's
what they're leaching on, and they know that that's where
they're targeting. With ads and all that. You go down
that whole rabbit hole. It's like, you don't want these things.
Actually they're just telling you that you need them.

Speaker 3 (07:56):
Psychology, psycho, I don't understand psychology. Like sales and marketing
and all that is like proven that there's three easiest
things and most passionate things to sell. And it's like
how to make money, how to get fit and healthy,
and then like how to get chicks. Like those are
the three like most scammable. Yeah, yeah, I don't know
how to do any of the three, but they're the
most scammable because they're like the most connected to the

(08:16):
human Like they're the most connected to the ego. Yeah,
And so obviously in fitness they take advantage of that,
and AI is just another way to do it. Although
again I do think that app has some application for
the competitor and for the normal folk to make like
cause again, like the normal folks have no clue how
many calories they need a day, how many calories are
in what they're slamming down their guss it, you know, like.

Speaker 2 (08:36):
They just how many calories are just drinking it?

Speaker 3 (08:38):
They have no clue, They have no clue. So if
you could do that, I think that would be I've
talked about on the show, I think with Jim maybe Udine.
But there was a shark tank and it must have
just been a fraud, but there was a Shark Tank
episode ten years ago where someone had a mug and
a plate that you can do that you would put
your food just straight into the mug like you're drinking
a smoothie, or on the plate like you're making dinner,

(08:59):
and would send your app the calories. Yeah, which again
is like this picture. I'm like, dude, that's fucking sick.

Speaker 2 (09:05):
It could have been like one of those ideas that like, hey,
we need your money to like make this real.

Speaker 3 (09:09):
Potentially potentially, but this these picture apps. Again, I've did
some research and found like three or four and they
seem pretty legit.

Speaker 2 (09:16):
With the power of AI now it feels like it's
more possible now than ever obviously to make that work.

Speaker 1 (09:23):
Number two on their list is actually it's a very
similar wearable technology integration. But I will make the point
that I don't think it matters for most people. I
think that like you have to have a level of
personal obsession that that I don't know what you do
with this data, I don't know you.

Speaker 3 (09:40):
Don't do that. Yeah, it's another pill.

Speaker 2 (09:42):
Even Danny, like you know, my business partner, like he
had the or ring for a bit, and he's somebody
that is like fucking dialed in right, like nutrition sleep
like he cares about that, she's passionate about it whatever,
like and he had and he was even like you know,
like I had this fucking thing and I got this
inform and I'm like what am I?

Speaker 1 (10:01):
Like?

Speaker 2 (10:01):
What do I need to know this fold?

Speaker 3 (10:03):
And he's a pretty good athlete and he's been competitive athlete,
Like what does that change in your change?

Speaker 2 (10:07):
Nothing for somebody at even his level who like it
might actually help, Like it's like like figure like find
the fine little things where they might be missing because
they already got like the basic style, right even like
above that, and.

Speaker 3 (10:18):
It doesn't like teach you, Like if you don't know
about nutrition, the watch isn't teaching you. The ring isn't teaching.
It's just telling you how many you burned. There's something
like people talk about philosophically where you have to hit
rock bottom before you'll make a change in your life. Right,
they talk about alcoholics or something. Right, you got to
get so far that your wife left you, your kid
left you, and then now you hit rock bottom and
you can make a change. But the truth is, like

(10:38):
I think the stat now is seventy percent of America
is overweight and then whatever fifty forty percents actually o
bees Like if you can't look in the mirror, you know,
you guys call me a fat shame or whatever like it.
It's grown, Like the percents have grown ten percent since
fat shaming became a bad thing, you know.

Speaker 2 (10:54):
Doesn't only made the problem worse.

Speaker 3 (10:56):
So if you can't look in the mirror, you can't
walk upstairs, get out of breath, you can't dizzy standing up,
you can't go a week without twisting an ankle or
something like, you're at rock bottom of health. You know,
like how are we not already changing that for ourselves?
Wearing a ring that tells you how many steps you
make aren't gonna change that either.

Speaker 2 (11:14):
It's like, oh yeah, we were talking about this earlier too.
It's like, okay, so you did get shitty sleep and
you're and you look at your ring and it tells you.
So now you're gonna go into the rest of the
day with this like built an excuse on like why
you're behaving the way you are, or it's gonna like
like kind of push you towards like, oh, I'm gonna
be in a bad mood today. Well, yeah, of course
I'm in a bad mood today. I look at my
my fingers said, I slept fucking four hours.

Speaker 3 (11:32):
And you're still gonna have beers on Friday. Like it's
changing nothing like anything, Like if you're a fatty and
you're looking in the mirror and you like what you see, like,
uh yeah, like there's there's Yeah. I mean, it's all
personal decisions. But clearly being obese and seeing it like
isn't changing your habits. So why why would it even
a scale.

Speaker 2 (11:52):
A spreadsheet on fucking Google docs.

Speaker 3 (11:54):
He well, it's like a scale. The scale would probably
do it more. Yeah, but if we could get every number, yeah,
I mean I'm sounding totally non passionate, like uncompassionate right now,
but like you get every fatty to step on a
scale and see a number they've never seen before, that's
got more likely chances to motivate someone. But it still
hasn't either.

Speaker 1 (12:11):
It's just stuff that's on the fringes, and it doesn't
The stuff on the fringe doesn't really matter to pop person.

Speaker 3 (12:18):
It's not gonna move move. Our nossion of making you know,
people not fat better, no.

Speaker 2 (12:23):
Know who might benefit from a fucking or ring maybe
like noe Olsen's a professional athlete. Yeah, he was like
trying to do triathlons. I need to really recover. I
should probably try and get as most sleep by Canona
had I sleep last night? Oh okay.

Speaker 3 (12:34):
But my argument to that is like he's probably so
in tuned with his body.

Speaker 1 (12:37):
He wake up his own ring.

Speaker 3 (12:40):
Yeah. I literally can wake up and before I open
my eyes, I feel my body and how rest It
is sort of god like because like bad sleep for
me feels like a ten percent jet lag, Like I
can just feel it, like, oh I don't feel that
great today, and then I'll wake up. Somebody is like, fuck, dude,
that was deep sleep, Like I'm rocking.

Speaker 2 (12:56):
Like the Whoop remember the Woop bands?

Speaker 1 (12:57):
Don't.

Speaker 2 (12:57):
I know a lot of people were those and all
that and maybe but some for some people though, maybe
it can help. Having that on is like this reminder
of like I'm trying to make a change, right right,
There's that there is.

Speaker 3 (13:09):
A percent in the game, but the game offying your steps,
you know, like you read your steps and I got
to hit ten k every day, and you know it's
it's six at night and you only hit eight. You
go for a walk, Like, Yeah, the fact of.

Speaker 2 (13:18):
The phone doesn't just track your steps is kind of absurd, right.

Speaker 3 (13:21):
It does, but you it's got to like be in
your pocket you have the watch, No, it does on
your phone, but it's kind of got to be in
your pocket, like if you have it at a backup.

Speaker 2 (13:27):
Phone, it's always in my pocket though.

Speaker 3 (13:28):
Yeah, it's it's it's a decent idea. But again, like
that's ten percent of America that are gonna adhere to
that anyways. Yeah, right, like who's actually gonna add here
to ten cas So just.

Speaker 2 (13:39):
A benefit alone from walking every day? It's like so underrated.

Speaker 1 (13:42):
Yes, everything, Yeah, Next up, we have virtual and hybrid training.

Speaker 3 (13:48):
I'm with it. We're talking virtual like virtual reality. We're
talking like online coaching.

Speaker 1 (13:52):
We're talking about both.

Speaker 3 (13:54):
We're talking with both. I'm with both.

Speaker 1 (13:56):
Demand for virtual and hybrid fitness programs main strong offering
convenience for clients. Trainers need to be proficient with digital tools,
design programs for online formats, and effectively manage remote relationships.
Professionals can broaden their reach by offering both in person
and online services. And then it goes on to talk
about VR and AR workouts.

Speaker 3 (14:18):
Yeah, I think AR isn't as tapped in as it
should be yet. Pokemon Go for those that don't know,
is basically AR. Like AR has some cool potential ship
VR two obviously, but then you gotta buy hell expensive.

Speaker 2 (14:29):
What's gonna help you though? With A I guess like
maybe like if.

Speaker 3 (14:31):
You so, like imagine you're you're training for a five
K and there's like fucking cool shit you can look
at while you're doing it. You could be running on
Mario Kart Rainbow Road, but you're over here on Third Street,
you know, like it could make it like funny cool once.

Speaker 2 (14:44):
They get like get down to like normal sized glasses,
Like I know that, like Zuck was where they're almost there. Yeah,
they're getting there, like two three years, we're gonna be
there where you put on a pair of ray bands.
World is different.

Speaker 3 (14:54):
The first thing I saw was like, yeah, you could
have like a Pokemon pop up in your snapchat or something.
You know, you're like taking a picture and Pikachu dance
in the corner like it's it's fucking cool. Yeah, Like
it has potential. It's same with VR. Once the equipment
catches up and.

Speaker 2 (15:05):
You're really try on sunglasses, you know, like look on
my face exactly. Even like good or has that on
their fucking software, you.

Speaker 3 (15:11):
Know what I mean. Like and and if you can
gamify stuff like that, I think we might be able
to get more people into fitness that don't want to
do it right for sure. And that's why even Peloton's
not that bad an idea.

Speaker 2 (15:19):
That's like, I think Peloton's great from the aspect of
like you join a class, right and they're right there
and they're hard.

Speaker 3 (15:24):
It's good, they're talking to you. It's just again like
building the habit of it's hard for all these people
out there.

Speaker 2 (15:29):
It's funny all the people that I know that still
do Peloton that bought it during that phase, we're already
like dialed in with their fitness and this is just
another thing that they do on top of their fitness,
and they're like, oh, I'm glad I discovered this extra thing.
But like they were already they're not like, didn't work
out at all, bought a Peloton. Now they're like killing it.
It's like, no, the people just like just added this
to their you know, uh you know arsenal.

Speaker 3 (15:51):
Yeah, for sure.

Speaker 1 (15:52):
Even more uh broad would be like the the yoga apps. Yeah,
you can you can get a yoga subscription and you
can just do tons and tons and tons of yah. Yeah,
but yoga sessions and like ar would be amazing if
it could tell you that you were actually in the
position you're trying to get into.

Speaker 2 (16:13):
Dude. Yeah, Yoga by Andrea on YouTube. Shout out to her.
She does, Like it's all free. Yeah, Like you don't
need ad for the yoga. If anybody wants to do yoga,
look up Yoga by Andrea on YouTube. She's got like
fucking twenty million subs.

Speaker 3 (16:26):
Like and with some of the else the biking stuff,
like I've never done peloton, but I have a little
spin bike at home and I'll just stop on a
YouTube class because they're free. That the issue is again
is like even with the yoga thing, Like I don't
think people are going from zero to yoga at home
and crushing it five times a week. It's like someone
who enjoys yoga and they need convenience because their life
is busy, and that's what sucks. It's like I don't
know the answer other than like yeah, fat shaming, but

(16:48):
like like like get people going, you know, like you
got you're gonna have to do it, and these apps
won't be found or used consistently by the people that
aren't doing it, you know, and it sucks. It's it's
hard for people that are consistent, yeah, to do them. Gamifying,
I think is one way to get people in the door,
you know, like again the typical VR boxing class or something.

Speaker 2 (17:06):
Just like what fucking Nintendo we did for something. What
I'm saying, because it's off the couch like that never
have gone on because it's actually fun, you know, so
I swing in the racket. That's better than nothing.

Speaker 3 (17:15):
For sure. They're starting to make places. I'm sure there's
one in Sack, but I've driven one in Vegas that
are like giant they're giant warehouses, but they have like
next level VR and so you're going with your homies
and you're kidded and you're running around this empty warehouse
with a gun playing. Yeah.

Speaker 2 (17:31):
Yeah, I've seen like the like the competitive league for
that fucking crazy.

Speaker 3 (17:35):
Like that'll be cool, right because again, like maybe you
could get a monthly subscription and go play an hour
a day and you're actually running around having fun, you know,
like that might get some of these I would.

Speaker 2 (17:44):
Just be stuck in the like the sex room.

Speaker 3 (17:47):
I don't think that one's in the public we heard.
I think that one.

Speaker 2 (17:52):
Counts as exercise.

Speaker 1 (17:53):
Yeah, that one's at home, the champagne room, VR strip close.
Next up is inclusivity, and I don't think that does
that mean they're not They're talking about people with disabilities,
older adults, people chronic conditions. Love it that all that

(18:16):
stuff we're not talking about. We're not talking about like diversity,
We're talking about inclusivity.

Speaker 2 (18:20):
Well, what does that mean? How is that a trend?

Speaker 3 (18:23):
Well, that's the magazine trying to push us something.

Speaker 1 (18:26):
This is the American Council and Exercise says that this
is one of their their a growing focus on creative,
inclusive communities for diverse populations. And so if you think
about scaling, if you think about adapting, whatever.

Speaker 2 (18:41):
Yeah, I know there is more I've seen. So my
buddy Carl, he does the whiteboard daily stuff. You guys
have seen that, like the stick figure drawings, people love it,
movement patterns.

Speaker 3 (18:53):
Carl Carl, the uh body weight calisthetics, be boy.

Speaker 2 (18:57):
He's strength conditioning like coach.

Speaker 3 (19:00):
What's the last name?

Speaker 2 (19:01):
Uh no, no, no, no, not pay you know what I'm
talking about.

Speaker 3 (19:04):
Yeah, he was like a calisthetics.

Speaker 2 (19:07):
Not him, yea, he was. He's cool too. So anyways,
he came out of this new book that has because
it's all moving patterns, and so he came out with
the new one is second one, and it's got a
lot of adaptive stuff in there, like how to do
like new movements if you have one arm or you're
in a wheelchair, and it's like these different workouts you
can do and movements. So I get that and that
he's right on trend with that. Yeah, which is great.

(19:29):
Which is great, and that aspect, I totally understand it.
But it's like I'm never like in a gym where
I'm like, you know what, I'm glad they let you
get a membership here.

Speaker 3 (19:35):
Yeah last last year. Yeah, I'd have been on the.

Speaker 2 (19:38):
Fence about it.

Speaker 3 (19:39):
But we could share him back four.

Speaker 2 (19:44):
But no, for sure, I think ye're integrating and making
it more normalized. But also it's like I mean being
just like like acting like it or because it's I
don't know, I don't know how to word I think
word things good. I just never really think about that stuff.

Speaker 3 (19:55):
Yeah I don't either, And part of it is hard
because a lot of these trends are like this overbearing,
you know, this overlord making the decisions. But that issue
of all fitnesses on the individual, you know, so like
we can only make a make a certain amount of
tech for the individual to show the fuck up. You know.

Speaker 1 (20:16):
Next up is this is this is uh, it's it's
there's not a lot of definition about what they mean
by power training. I know that this is just say powerlifting,
and there's another there's another later bullet that talks about whatever.
But anyway, they're saying notably, power training targets fast twitch

(20:37):
fiber muscle fibers that tend to deteriorate faster than slow
twitch fibers as we age. By training muscles to react quickly,
power training can help adults maintain stability and reduce the
likelihood of accidents such as slips and falls.

Speaker 2 (20:55):
It sounds just like like strength conditioning. Yeah, normalizing strength
deadlifts are good in apparently Yeah, yeah, I mean that
was things that we obviously, like I've always believed and know,
but not everybody fucking understands. They think it's unhealthy. They
think that now does an eighty year old mom need
to be learning fucking snatch at a class gym. No, absolutely,

(21:16):
she can pick something heavy off, like can she pick
up the you know, the sandbag that's reasonably waited and
put it above in a cabinet like that kind of
movement pattern, right, like a medicine bolic there's that's I
would consider that part of that, right, and push strength
and conditioning, body awareness, body functional movement.

Speaker 3 (21:33):
Like which is like trendy, you know you see all
these like random ass whatever doctors whatever the fuck they
do on the internet now talking about like strength trained, strength, strained, strengths, strain,
which is good, yeah, because it was, I mean in
normalizing it the nineties nineties was like train your heart, aerobics,
rock jog, yeah, jog, walk, run, take aerobics. And then
like bodybuilders lift where like pure health, brain, body soul,

(21:57):
lift something heavy every age for move.

Speaker 2 (22:00):
With purpose, move with you know, with weight with load.

Speaker 3 (22:04):
Easy.

Speaker 1 (22:05):
Next up. Recovery over overrated, yeah, I mean, like the
major recovery thing is sleep. Yeah, that's that's thing one.
Everything else sleep Yeah, Well, the major the margin, the.

Speaker 3 (22:19):
Major note is that people don't work hard enough to
worry about their recovery largely is like Michael Phelps need
to worry about it. Yeah, you should probably dial it in. Yeah,
he's fucking training for eight hours a day. Like Susie
on the corner that did one pilates class, need to
worry about her.

Speaker 2 (22:32):
Aura ring or ice bath.

Speaker 3 (22:34):
Yeah, Like we're probably okay with the son and ice bath, Susie.

Speaker 2 (22:37):
Yeah.

Speaker 3 (22:38):
Like just eat a steak and go to bed.

Speaker 2 (22:40):
Yeah, if you want to, like, yeah, bioluck and infred
son it and chill out because it makes you feel good. Yeah,
go ahead, But like torturing yourself in an ice bath
ain't doing because you went to you know, cal fit
for thirty five minutes, ran five k if you did
some pearls, Like it's fucking what's relax?

Speaker 1 (22:55):
Yeah exactly, it's.

Speaker 2 (22:58):
Doing your up. Throw some fucking Epps and salt in there,
have a glass of wine, chill out.

Speaker 3 (23:02):
Yeah again it is. It's the trendy you know, fat
loss pill. Oh, just hopping the sun of five minutes
a day and it raises your testosterone thirty percent.

Speaker 2 (23:10):
Like, oh, you got mental illness jumping an ice back
you'll be cured.

Speaker 3 (23:13):
Yeah yeah, yeah, become an alpha male again. Put your
sun your balls on this red light lamp. I'm selling
on Amazon.

Speaker 1 (23:20):
I'm surprised they didn't make like a red laser jockstrap
or something like that.

Speaker 3 (23:25):
Face masks.

Speaker 1 (23:26):
Yes, I've seen the face mask.

Speaker 2 (23:27):
I got the red light cock ring.

Speaker 3 (23:30):
All condoms are just like rid lighted. Now.

Speaker 1 (23:33):
Yeah, one of one of my wife's friends and and
her husband had a very embarrassing moment with a red
light mask where he was wearing it, but I think
he wasn't wearing anything else nice, and these things started
to get frisky, and then one of their kids opened
the door.

Speaker 3 (23:53):
Nice like you got to lock that door.

Speaker 1 (23:54):
Yes, you gotta lock that door.

Speaker 3 (23:56):
That's a horror story. Ah, those masks are crazy. People
look like cycle on ice.

Speaker 1 (24:00):
Mommy fucking robot.

Speaker 3 (24:01):
It's like a Jason glowing Jason mask trauma.

Speaker 2 (24:05):
He's gonna he's gonna like be like super tech, like
mega giant super villain.

Speaker 3 (24:10):
Yes, the villain from the Incredibles. Some weird kid.

Speaker 1 (24:15):
Number seven is weight inclusive approaches, and basically that's it's
scaling for bodies and not you know scaling comment.

Speaker 3 (24:24):
Yeah, I'm gonna say something bad.

Speaker 1 (24:26):
Yeah, just let's just yeah, we'll just move on from
that one.

Speaker 3 (24:29):
Every size should move their body.

Speaker 2 (24:30):
Yeah, exactly. That's like, but that's already what's happened.

Speaker 1 (24:32):
That's the point, right, that's the point of mart I
don't see the point of that one. However, this one
is huge, and it's going to be even bigger this year.
Number eight, number number eight Anti obesity medications. Yeah, GLP one.

Speaker 3 (24:49):
I think I'm pro g o P one.

Speaker 1 (24:50):
Man.

Speaker 3 (24:51):
I haven't done enough research, but I think I'm pro.

Speaker 1 (24:53):
I think the only really big downside is for the
people who get you know, called gastroparesis where you're no,
your motility stops, your gut just stops moving.

Speaker 2 (25:03):
Yeah it's not. Yeah, and who knows the fucking side effects.
We don't know yet. They're gonna come in strong. In
about four years, we'll.

Speaker 1 (25:11):
Know that or not. I mean, the curious thing about
them is that they seem to have an effect on
every kind of addiction, like they're they're they're testing for,
like doing studies for like alcohol drugs, because like aren't
anecdotally yeah you need this one.

Speaker 2 (25:28):
Oh there's a drug for that.

Speaker 1 (25:31):
There's a cure for the salt peter, I think that's
what they used to call it. Yeah, it's gonna be
even bigger this year if they because we're.

Speaker 2 (25:41):
Start buying over the counter at this point, let people
take it. I mean you could wore that like semi glue.

Speaker 3 (25:46):
Tide is the actual like thing, right, and all prescriptions
are just proprietary, uh measurements. You can't like you can't
like copyright like a chemical, you know.

Speaker 1 (25:56):
So like yeah, the brand names are on the scarce side.
But you can get compounded GLP one agonists from any
online doc. You know, you have a little fill out
of the questionnaire.

Speaker 2 (26:11):
Yeah, it's like the old oxycoton pandemic. Yeah. Yeah, yeah,
you know, not go to a pill farm.

Speaker 1 (26:17):
Yeah, it's essentially a pill farm. Yeah, but rejectables, they're.

Speaker 2 (26:21):
Just cleaning up on it. Well, they're making millions.

Speaker 3 (26:24):
I think I'm pro if it like helps and even
if it has sides, like everything we have ever taken
a life outsides, right, Like every decision you make is
going to have recourse.

Speaker 2 (26:31):
Father, my father in law, takes it. Takes it because
he was pre type two.

Speaker 3 (26:35):
Yeah, and he lost like.

Speaker 2 (26:36):
Fucking eventy pounds, right and so like yeah, and he's
like feels like he's in Like I feel like he
feels better about himself.

Speaker 3 (26:42):
That's all he ever has time. That's all it matters.
Like my you know, the dickhead side of me is like, well,
we should be able to fix this without meds, which
is true, you know, like shout out the WHOOPI Goldberg, whoopy,
Goldberg's chomping at the bit like some of us are
just made thick. And I'm like, well that's just like
again like Dean's thing. You see your our ring tell
you you're tired, so gonna be lazy, Like, no one's
just made thick. Big boned is proven wrong a billion

(27:05):
times over. Do you have genetics to maybe eat more
and not know the sensor of when you're full? Yeah,
we could blame that on graenetics processes things differently. Yeah,
but do we believe in free will still? If we
believe in free will still, then you can also have
free will to put the spoon down, you know. And
so I am for things that help people, and if
this helps people, I'm all for it. But I also

(27:27):
think that accountability is still gonna be number one. It's
just gonna be a tough thing to do.

Speaker 1 (27:31):
I think, Yeah, you have to do the lifestyle changes
along along with that.

Speaker 3 (27:36):
Yeah, and we got to stop promoting that it's gonna
be easy. Like I'm not saying it's gonna be easy.
Like my whole family is large. I'm talking about genetics
to be large. Like if you put a gallon of
ice cream in front of me, I consider that one
serving and I bust that thing down and people think
I'm joking, But I will literally bust down a gallon
of ice cream in front of your face and not
blink once, not blink once, and swear to God, swear

(27:59):
to God watching lethal weapon eight into the lamming like
it has I get the not full thing.

Speaker 2 (28:05):
But just talk to a podcast, Yeah, trading my hawk
to a coins like, I'll bang that thing out, and
so like I understand the pain of that whole world.

Speaker 3 (28:15):
I'm telling you, my my whole family is quite large.
Like it's it's if there is a genetic opponent. I
got that gene. But you can also be accountable and
just fucking eat a salad every once in a while.

Speaker 1 (28:24):
Yeah, Yeah, I just think that. Yeah, it has has
to be part of a lifestyle change. And I think
that you if you're not going to lose too much
muscle that's going to screwlate, or you have to exercise
weight bearing exercise that's the thing I think. Yeah, And
and I mean like really, if you're a dude and
in your and you're overweight, but you're afraid about, you know,

(28:48):
losing too much muscle along the way, maybe you're doing
a little t RT along with it.

Speaker 2 (28:54):
If you're lift, you gotta lift only skilled.

Speaker 3 (28:56):
I've only skimmed again the science, So don't take my
word as law yet. But like, I think a lot
of the muscle loss that comes with like ozembic and
stuff is from lack of nutrients. So it's just it's
a lack of protein that you're eating because you're just
eating less. So if you eat enough protein, you get
your micros. And yeah, you still gotta lift weights to
maintain muscle, especially the older you get and older you get,
meaning like past age twenty five. If you're sedentary, you're

(29:18):
gonna lose muscle weight, it just goes. So yeah, yeah,
the lifestyle is one hundred percent of the thing. And accountability,
and again I think the world especially because it's all
these jacked sexy motherfuckers selling you fitness on the internet. Now,
like everyone's following somebody sexy on Instagram or Twitter or whatever,
and so like they're feeding it to you that it's easy, right,
because they're riding in their lambeau, smiling drink, you know,

(29:40):
singing the weekend, chugging pre workout on the way to
the gym, having the time of their lives. Like, that's
not really what working out is. And if you've accomplished
anything in your life that it's not easy. But a
big business is hard raising kids, I'm sure it's hard.
I didn't know lifting weights is hard, Like it is hard.
So once we get that message across and like wake
up and literally I look in the goddamn mirror every morning,

(30:02):
say I can do hard, ship and then I go
do whatever I have to do, you know, like once
we get to that level of the But again, marketing
and is always going to hide that.

Speaker 2 (30:11):
Yeah, for sure, it's yeah, exactly, there's.

Speaker 3 (30:14):
Because you can't sign someone up and say, hey, this
is gonna be really fucking hard, pay me ten thousand
dollars so get you there. People don't want that, like, hey,
it's gonna be really easy. Just a couple of payments
of five hundred dollars a month and we'll get you simple.

Speaker 2 (30:24):
You know, you won't even feel the difference. Yeah, your
life won't even be that different, and well that's not true.

Speaker 3 (30:29):
That is the one side of the ozepic stuff I
don't like, cause it is the magic pill right.

Speaker 2 (30:35):
Way.

Speaker 3 (30:35):
Yeah, you take the magic pill and do nothing. Then
as soon as you're off it, or as soon as
you even when you're on it, like you can still
beat it by going to the buffet every day. You
can slamm a zep and go to the fet every
day and you're not gonna lose.

Speaker 2 (30:46):
Weight from what I'm from what I've understood, though, it's like, dude,
you just you physically can't. You're just like you are
just put off by food.

Speaker 3 (30:52):
I'll test it.

Speaker 1 (30:53):
Yeah, I was gonna say, we need we need you
to test it now ice cream. Mike and I can
both eat when we're not easily, Yeah, very easily. Yeah.
I can just pound stuff down. Yeah, because yeah, they're
all like all my stomach can hurt and I can
still keep eating.

Speaker 3 (31:06):
No, no, no, that's like a good marker for me. Yeah,
like my pains and my stuff it eats a little
bit more, brother, Yeah sort of. Oh, bro, I'm wired wrong. Well,
I'm just saying, like all the fat all the fatty's
listening will understand my thing, like it's normal. It's like
a comfort thing. You know. It's the same thing like
getting drunk and being hungover, Like alcoholics don't care about
a hangover. That just means that they did yesterday, right,

(31:26):
you know, like that's how I feel like I ate
enough ice cream on my tummyrs Like, oh that was good,
that was satisfying. We did enough.

Speaker 2 (31:32):
That's heavy.

Speaker 1 (31:32):
Yeah, yeah, I think.

Speaker 3 (31:34):
No, it's the fattiness. I swear, That's what I'm saying.
Like I've been there, I know what fatness.

Speaker 1 (31:38):
I think that part of it too, is that in
our culture we we valorize exer not exercise, but like
what's the word I'm looking for, adversity or like self
punishment or you know, all that kind of stuff. We
we value that so high. And and you GLP one

(32:00):
agonists seem like they're just too easy and so it's
easy to criticize. But you know, it's it's whatever helps.
But I think that the real backlash against them for
health wise's going forward to be just like the muscle loss.
And then the muscle loss is about the same as
somebody who is actually able to execute a very tight
diet just starving.

Speaker 2 (32:21):
Well, so most people taking it aren't people that are
working out right, they're going to get a ton of
muscle loss.

Speaker 3 (32:26):
And then you said Osbourne wife and daughter. You know,
yeah they look like a skeleton. Well like, yeah, man,
they probably didn't have a vegetable lust. They literally to
starve themselves.

Speaker 2 (32:34):
They're eating bread and water and they're taking ozmpic on
top of they have no nutrients left.

Speaker 3 (32:38):
Yeah. Yeah, it's the magic prot it's not the magic pill.

Speaker 1 (32:41):
Yeah, I mean, it has to be used correctly. I
don't know. Onward. Uh. Number nine is food is medicine,
which I find to be a weird structure here and
weird concept. The food is medicine movement may open new
opportunities to partner with healthcare providers or whatever whatever.

Speaker 3 (33:02):
I get that.

Speaker 1 (33:03):
And you know, it's like you're talking about not as
eating as much salt, or moderating your fat or moderating
your cars or whatever whatever. But food does not medicine.
It's a diet, is part of a whole picture and
not you know, specific foods.

Speaker 3 (33:22):
Yeah, I mean, I guess it depends on your definition
of medicine, because like modern day medicine is obviously very
different every decade. Let alone a hundred years ago and
you look at like any ancient civilization they did use
natural sources and foods as medicine, and even even Modernish.

Speaker 2 (33:38):
Day there are some foods that can cure or resolve.

Speaker 3 (33:41):
Yeah, symptoms. Does medicine have the definition of cure? Though?
That's what I'm wondering, and so I don't want to
get into semantics. It doesn't really matter. Part of the
issue is is the mindset, right, Like the food is
fuel is also a great slogan that's used, but like,
how do we adapt that?

Speaker 2 (33:55):
Well?

Speaker 3 (33:56):
The issue is buying in right, The issue is the
buy in of Again, sorry, I'll but all the fatties,
Like how did you get a fatty to buy in
this food and fuel? Once you're in the journey and
you start to think that way, it is great, right,
Why am I eating this oatmeal right now because I
have to perform this afterwards? And why am I eating
this protein because I work so hard I deserve this
semi steak to make me feel better and recover. But

(34:16):
getting that is like it's like skipping eight steps for
people that are inactive.

Speaker 1 (34:21):
And it's always going to be more about what you
didn't eat than what you did eat.

Speaker 3 (34:26):
Or replacements or replacements or like the more whole foods
you get in because because people don't again going back
to the AI shit and the why I think that
picture thing is good. People don't even know what they're eating.
If you tell someone like eat healthy, they don't even
know what that They don't know what that means. They
literally don't know what that means, you know, like because
even to me, and I was thinking about this just
the other day, like because I'm more on that terms

(34:47):
right now too, like really focusing on like what's inside
of my food and like where it comes from, et cetera,
et cetera, and so like, even ice cream is healthier
if you choose the right ice cream than other ice creams. Right,
if you get milk sugar cream and they mix that
bitch up and freeze it, like that's pretty healthy. Those
are like three like pretty wholesome ish natural things. It's

(35:07):
gonna be much better than going over here and eating
a box of Cheetos that we don't even know the.

Speaker 2 (35:12):
Fucks And that's all chemical.

Speaker 3 (35:13):
It's just all oil, like twenty different oils mixed up
and baked. Yeah, you know, And so like again I'm
not the very anti seed guy, but I'm also with like,
if you can cook with all of oil versus these
crazy hydrogenated oils, like we probably should choose that, and
the money difference isn't that great. But again we're not
that this is semantics, but we're already like in the
league of worrying about these things.

Speaker 2 (35:33):
Well, all those chemicals and all that crap we're talking
about can cause neurological side effects, right, like an anxiety depression,
Like those things can be triggered by chemicals made from
shitty processed foods. Like that's a fact.

Speaker 3 (35:46):
And are they gonna make you full? Yeah, Like a
bag of Cheetos has never once to be like wow,
that was sayshiety, you know, like wow.

Speaker 2 (35:53):
Those palatable foods that are made to like not stop
forever and then you feel like air in your stomach.

Speaker 3 (35:59):
Goat is sixty ounce and then tell me you're starving,
you know, like it really is. And again I'm not
like the mega anti seed guy or the fucking eat
beef only guy, but like, there are choices you can
make that can help this whole situation. On ozembic or offen.

Speaker 2 (36:12):
You're talking about like inflammation too, right, like all this
stuff about like what foods and what type of things
cause inflammation that we know about, Like that can go
with the medicine side of things too. It's like avoiding
those things that make your body hurt.

Speaker 3 (36:21):
I've talked to a lot of people about it too,
where like part of the issue I think is people
don't even know what it feels like to feel good,
and so like if you don't know what that feels like, like
why you're gonna aim for? And I use this example
all the time, which is semi true, an semi me
being a bitch that like when I'm sick, I'm the
biggest baby, like just men in general, I get that too.
But like I'll even get like a I can feel

(36:43):
a sinus infection a week out and I'll just lay
in bed.

Speaker 2 (36:46):
Right my life's over.

Speaker 3 (36:47):
Well, I just know I could shake it because I
try so hard every single day to feel my best.
Every decision I make, like I'm in bed at nine
o'clock at night as a grown ass man, you know,
like I'm not old yet, like I'm not in my eighties.
Want to bet a and I like fuck A thirty
six going to bed because I know that's what's going
to make me feel best tomorrow, and I set my
whole life up that way what I eat, because I
do have a sensitive stomach. Like everything I do is

(37:10):
to feel as good as humanly possible. So then when
something doesn't feel good, like I know it's about to
not feel good, But I think the vast majority of
people don't even know what that feels like.

Speaker 2 (37:19):
They're just stuck in this kind of state of constantly
feeling like shit.

Speaker 3 (37:22):
But then that becomes their norm.

Speaker 2 (37:23):
Yeah, so like they wonder whether they're depressed or they
have anxiety or whatever. Short of God, my brain, your
body's hurting. Yeah, eating junk food, like my brain goes crazy. Yeah, yeah,
it's there's definitely there's definitely effects from eating shit like that, right, Yeah,
but the food is medicine. Yeah, just if you the
more vitamins you're putting in your body, you know that,

(37:44):
and the cleaner that you're eating, you're obviously going to
feel better. It's not possible to not feel better, yeah
from doing that.

Speaker 3 (37:50):
Yeah. Yeah, and again I think they're just probably slogans
people are trying to attract.

Speaker 1 (37:54):
Yeah yeah, yeah, I never eat real food.

Speaker 2 (37:57):
Yeah, fucking groundbreaking science. Eat real food. Great.

Speaker 1 (38:00):
I've never heard the phrase of food is medicine from
somebody who wasn't in it, like right, hard, I don't.
I've never heard anybody out outside of that. Yeah, fatty
use that expression. Number ten is a more holistic approach
to fitness, So sure, Yeah, I think.

Speaker 2 (38:20):
Mc ben's been up to doing.

Speaker 3 (38:23):
I don't know if Ben's the best representative, but yeah,
I mean a holistic approach to everything you do in life. Yeah,
A holistic approach to business, a holistic approach to your relationship,
A holistic approach to raising your dog.

Speaker 2 (38:36):
Just means, like a positive approach.

Speaker 3 (38:38):
Holistic basically means that you're looking at every aspect to
effect one aspect, which is a dump. Like nothing is
one to one in life, Like you should just know
that by now, right, Like nothing is one to one.
Like raising your dog isn't just about just training your dog.
It's about how you let your dog sleep, and how
you feed your dog and how you comfort your dog. Like, Yeah,
a holistic approach to everything in life works.

Speaker 1 (38:58):
They're talking about mental health, awareness, recovery practices, stress management,
sleep hygiene, et cetera, et cetera. But interestingly, they say,
whether in person, classes, online platforms, or social media, professionals
who foster a supportive environment are better equipped to retain clients.

(39:19):
And that's kind of what we try to do here,
is create a supportive environment in the gym. Keep people around.

Speaker 2 (39:25):
Yeah, well for sure, like yeah, just like actually have
building relationships with people, and all those people accountable or
talking to somebody if they're not feeling good. I guess
just being a good perse yeah, yeah, and be a
good person. Yeah, your probably life would be probably pretty good.

Speaker 3 (39:38):
Yeah, but it is true, like you do that and
you're around that, you're more likely to come back to
the gym versus a dickhead gym or everyone staring at
you or asking for your machine or working out alone
for those that haven't started, yea, working out a loan
is going to be hard. It's gonna be satis important. Yeah,
very very for Sure's your finish trends, that's all I got.
You got any finished trends.

Speaker 2 (39:59):
That I like, I've are going to happen.

Speaker 3 (40:01):
Hours that you feel are happening now, because trends don't
happen on January second, right, trends are happening now.

Speaker 2 (40:06):
That'll I think it's already been happening though, But I've
also been a part of these like niche communities that
are like getting popular, you know what I mean. So
it's like I think that more gen pop is under
finally going to start understanding, like even more and more
throughout these years coming up of like how important it
is to work out with groups of people and being

(40:28):
in a group environment and being yeah, getting together in
groups and doing group training. But I've been doing that.
I've been in that world for fifteen years. But I
think that people are trying to figure that out. It's
because it's a lot easier to do it with other
people than by yourself, like trying to like go to
fucking Calfit and or fucking twenty four whatever the hell
and signing a membership on January first with no friends

(40:52):
there and no and that's not a place where you
can meet places like not an intimate place like like
Third Street right where everybody knows each other and everybody's
talking and you can hang out afterwards or whatever. It's
like just going to like this like global gym situation.
You're set up for failure because those systems aren't made
for you to you know, they're just looking about. They're
looking about, uh, just turn and burn, right, like there

(41:12):
is someone in someone out. Like they don't want you
to stay or go. They don't really care. They want
you sign you up that day, and then once you're
signed up that you're forgotten.

Speaker 3 (41:19):
Because it's considered a gym, people don't look at it
like that. But like literally commercial gyms are McDonald's of fitness. Yes,
like they don't give a fuck whether you succeed or not. No,
they literally want you to not succeed. So then you're
guilted to continue to members pay yeah, to show up. Yeah,
it's silly, and I mean the beauty of the real
fitness model is that fitness never stops. You can't accomplish fitness, right,

(41:41):
It's something you have to put in. It's a savings account.
You have to put in a penny every single day
the rest of your life. So like real gym's want
you to succeed because that means not only pure X's
and O's business wise, it means you got to continue
to show up to succeed. So to continue to pay
me we're twenty four, doesn't care if you show up,
doesn't care if you succeed, no crunch, you know, a
dollar a month. They're literally McDonalds. They're literally McDonalds.

Speaker 2 (42:02):
Yeah, you're quick. It's a quick crash grab and it's
like they're they just look at you as on a spreadsheet.

Speaker 3 (42:08):
Sell you the world. Come here in thirty days, you're
gonna get fit.

Speaker 2 (42:11):
Well then what yeah no not actually not that's so yeah.
So yeah, group training, I think environment and environment which
like I consider even like you know, I know you
guys don't like run classes here, but like I consider
this like a group training environment. Yeah yeah, because like
there're people come in here, they're working out with other people.
Sometimes they're by theirself, like you're in a community. Yeah,

(42:32):
I guess so like that'd be Another trend would be
like more micro niche gyms, right like, not these like
giant global gym conglomerates, right like that could be like
I think something more that it's more that you guys
are ahead up. I think you guys are pretty in
a rare position, Like there's these gyms don't really exist
in many places.

Speaker 3 (42:49):
You think they would be more popular because like if
you ran a study, I should find someone at a
fucking university of running, like a survey if you ran
the success rate of whatever your goal is in a
gym like this versus a commercial gym, Like the numbers
have to be outstanding favor Like, there's just no way
the average person succeeds at a commercial gym. No if
they don't, Like, there's no way.

Speaker 2 (43:09):
And like the people in there and you know, like, oh,
I'll see you for this week and then I'll never
see again.

Speaker 3 (43:13):
Yeah, you can spa them a mile away. Yeah, or
it's yeah, or it's the juic, said meathead that just
loves lifting so he'll go to commercial gym and look
at it, or wherever you buy numbers. I mean, like
the random commercial gym down the street has ten thousand members,
you know, and like if you if you take a
percent of them that have improved over a year and anything,
yeah versus versus yeah, the percent that improved somewhere like this.
It's wild. But sadly you can't get that message across

(43:35):
to the world.

Speaker 2 (43:36):
People are you know, I think you know, I think
it also comes with like, you know a little bit
of maybe some sticker shock to some people. They see
that's exactly why I got this ten dollars thing. That's
kinda can get help me at all? Or I got
this like whatever, I'm making up a numb one hundred
dollars thing over here. It's like, well, this costs ten
times as much, and they and I can they both
have the same thing. Yeah, And it's like, well, if
you want to look at that from that perspective, sure,
but your success rate is negative five hundred compared to

(44:00):
this one.

Speaker 3 (44:00):
It's kind of like the argument of college. And you know,
not a huge college advocate per se, I'm not anti
college either, but you go to junior college and you
can for sure get an education, you get a way cheaper.
But if you do go to Stanford, the people you're
gonna meet there are going to take you further in
oh than the education either way. So like, yeah, I
don't know if it's worth the two hundred k loan
that they're fucking on us, but it's worth more probably

(44:22):
just from the people. And that's kind of like stuff
like this, like not only your life network and the
friends you may make long term, but the success you'll
have within the task. But again, the outside doesn't know.
They see gym, they see gym, fitness center, fitness center.
That's like all they know, so until we kind of
switch that narrative, which I don't know how you do quite.

Speaker 2 (44:39):
Yet, I may about how many businesses or things have
been invented in small gyms like this.

Speaker 3 (44:44):
Yeah, everything, the entire industry. Yeah. The coolest thing, the
coolest thing I ever heard Kelly Strett, you know, shout
out to the supple leopard himself telling me was that
one of his greatest accomplishments is how many businesses were
born out of his gym and then the people got
to leave and go do their own. And he's like, yeah,
like all my coaches, he said, I had, like I
forgot what year this was, you know, but one of
the times I was talking to me, he's like, yeah, we

(45:05):
had like eight businesses from internal people build here and
then they left and had success on their own. I
was like, yeah, that's a fucking sick goal.

Speaker 2 (45:12):
Yeah yeah, that's like a real leader school and listen. Then, yeah,
as long as I'm not taking your client them.

Speaker 3 (45:18):
Fucking take them, you know, because like the truth is,
there's enough people to like succeed over. Yeah yeah, yeah,
all right, go get fit people. Happy, uh, Happy twenty
twenty five, Happy New.
