Speaker 1 (00:22):
What's up everybody?
Welcome back to the Go All Inpodcast.
Speaker 2 (00:25):
I'm Braxton Cave, I'm
Jake Fine and today we are
coming at you with an all inmoments episode about longevity.
Starts now.
Basically, this is going to goover, you know, the longevity of
your life.
If you're waiting until youknow you're 50, about your
health you're already losingbecause your biology does not
care about your excuses, itresponds to what you do today.
(00:48):
So you know, basically, I'velearned as I I've since I've
gone um number one sleep, secretweapon sleep, and I know this
is a lot of issues witheverybody.
Everybody has a a problem withthis one.
I think it's the hardest one.
We've talked about this.
Speaker 1 (01:06):
Yeah.
Speaker 2 (01:07):
And it's a secret
weapon.
I get up at you know 3.15 inthe morning for work and it's
yeah, I've done it for so longthat my internal clock I don't
have an alarm.
So it's like my internal clockis like okay, it's getting to
that time, but I get six hoursto seven hours.
I try a shoot for seven but,yeah, it's always six, maybe
(01:29):
five.
Yeah, you know and you don'tfeel it.
You know when you're working,but till you do until you do so,
and obviously longer down theroad too as well, and from me
doing rv for so many years, youknow being around, you know the
chemicals of the glue and it'sadded up.
You know my I had to get bloodwork done.
(01:52):
You know checked my numbers andI could see that's what was the
issue with me having.
You know being lethargic, beingtired, and you know finally
taking the step and the actionto focus more on my longevity
and my health.
Because, like I said, if youwait till the last minute, until
something actually happens andit's going to it's going to be
(02:12):
too late.
Um but yeah, top one I have issleep is the top number for
secret weapon to focus on and um, yeah, and before you move on
from that one, I think itdepending on what you do for a
living yeah, that too, yeah, andwhat your situation is with
with kids, you know, just lifein general, like eight, eight
(02:35):
hours isn't isn't possible forsome people and I think it's
it's an unrealistic expectationfor some
Speaker 1 (02:43):
people.
Um right, I think it's thenumber one for some people,
right, I think it's the numberone thing that all of us could
be hypocritical about.
Oh, yeah, right, yeah, you needto get more sleep.
Like that it sounds great.
But I also think it's importantto keep in mind that, like, if
six hours is all you can get,there are things that you can do
to maximize those six hours.
Right, it's the it's not thequantity, it's the quality of
(03:05):
the sleep Agreed.
And so you know, from magnesiumto different things, like there
are your, your nighttimeroutine, like there's stuff you
can do to get yourself into theright sleep cycles to be able to
operate well off of six hoursof sleep.
Yeah, so I don't want.
I hope people don't walk awaysaying like, well, I can only
(03:26):
get six hours, so I'm screwed.
I'll never get to where I wantto be.
That's not true.
There's action that has to gointo that to make sure you're
maximizing those six hours.
Speaker 2 (03:37):
Prioritizing
basically, and with me getting
my blood work done, that wasjust the foundation that made a
big difference, just figuringout what needed to be fixed,
because you know we can go intothe science part of everything
and you know I'm not a doctor,he's not a doctor.
So this is just our disclaimerthat this is what you know we
(03:59):
were given.
I'm on a protocol that you know, with my age, what my goals are
and, like yesterday, I gotblood work done.
So I try to get blood work doneevery hundred days.
It's my schedule, Just to keeptabs on, you know, with the
protocol I'm on and to keep mynumbers.
You know where they're at andhow I feel.
(04:20):
You know that's what you needto do.
And a lot of people don't dothat and a lot of people are
like, oh, it's just so muchmoney people don't want to
invest.
And you know you're investingin your longevity, you're
investing in how long you'regoing to be around for your kids
and your family and yourgrandkids and so on.
Um, I think that's a veryimportant investment, yeah, and
a lot.
You know, a lot of people don'tdon't look at that right, you
(04:42):
know they think of price rightaway.
Speaker 1 (04:44):
Yeah, I mean, if
you're not getting blood work
done, to me that's no differentthan like being on a road trip
without GPS.
Speaker 2 (04:53):
Yeah.
Speaker 1 (04:54):
Right.
Speaker 2 (04:54):
MapQuest.
Speaker 1 (04:55):
Right.
I mean your blood work is trulyshowing you like what's going
on in the journey of your lifeand gives you the opportunity to
you know, supplement, differentum, vitamins, nutrients,
different things, to make surethat you're on the right path,
the right roads.
Speaker 2 (05:15):
Without it, I just
think you're, you're driving
blind yeah, because also, I mean, a lot of people just go out
and buy vitamins like, oh, youneed to take this, this and this
.
How do you, how do you knowthat your body needs that?
You know you could be justpissing all this money away on
supplements that your body yeah,that your body doesn't need so,
and that's another factor.
you know, looking at my bloodwork, I'm like Holy cow.
(05:43):
I've be 44 this year and suredon't feel like it.
I feel phenomenal and I've evenbeen told that I don't look my
age, which I hope that keepsgoing.
You know, I want to be 80 andstill to be able to do this.
Just keep wearing hats, you'llkeep getting away.
Speaker 1 (05:56):
Yeah, that's
different.
Speaker 2 (06:01):
That I can say was
genetic, you know.
But yeah, that's.
Speaker 1 (06:05):
We could send you to
Turkey.
Speaker 2 (06:06):
Dude, you know how
everybody's doing that.
I wouldn't want to do that.
I think I look good bald.
Speaker 1 (06:13):
Bald works because
you got the beard.
Yes, well, I didn't.
I don't know how that works,dude.
Speaker 2 (06:17):
I know and that's
another thing that drives me
nuts it's like how come thisgirl's back thick, but this up
here doesn't do anything?
Speaker 1 (06:24):
Hey, it works for you
, yeah.
Speaker 2 (06:25):
So, and you know I
live with it.
But other than that, I mean,that was my main ones.
Speaker 1 (06:34):
To top it off, are
you ready for the power five?
Speaker 2 (06:37):
yeah, go ahead.
He's got his power five.
I'll add more into as you go,okay here's.
Speaker 1 (06:41):
Here's today's power
five from my point of view.
And number one is longevity isa mindset, not an age bracket.
You know, if you wait untillater to prioritize your health,
you you've already lost time,you're behind the eight ball.
You know, leaders and highachieving individuals plan for
(07:04):
long-term right and then, whenyou want to look at it from the
business standpoint, right Highlevel leaders in business.
They plan and strategize forthe future, but so many people
don't do that for their ownhealth.
So, number two, energy is thetrue advantage in leadership.
You can dominate in yourforties, fifties and sixties if
your body is up to par.
(07:25):
And I think that any of us canname, like the first person that
comes to mind, that's an olderindividual who just they capture
a room because they walk inwith high energy.
Um, you know, I think of billcoughlin I don't know bill's in
(07:45):
his early 60s and like billbrightens up every room, he
walks in, like he comes in.
You're like I want to talk tothat guy, like that's who I
believe we all should bestriving to be when we get into
our 50s, 60s, 70s, 80s.
Right, it's ages, a number,it's truly just how you feel is
what really accounts for yourenergy and who you become as you
, as you get older.
I believe the most effectiveleaders outwork others because
(08:13):
they outlast them, and you.
There's only one way to do that, and that's by taking care of
yourself.
Effective leaders outworkothers because they outlast them
, and there's only one way to dothat, and that's by taking care
of yourself.
Number three your biology iseither compounding or collapsing
.
So every rep, every clean meal,every night of quality sleep
see quality, not quantity, isstacking the odds in your favor
(08:35):
or against you, and so it's justsomething to continually think
about when you're looking atyour daily habits and routines,
that you're either stackingchips in the good pile or you're
giving them back to the casino.
Number four stop calling itgenetics, unless it's your hair.
Yes, yes.
(08:56):
Start calling it stewardship.
You know most people will hidebehind.
You know family history myparents were overweight,
so-and-so had diabetes,so-and-so had heart attacks.
Like you, have the opportunityto change the game.
You know, and for some people Iwould say it's a lot harder for
some people than others, butit's possible.
(09:17):
So people who kind of throwtheir hands up in the air and
just kind of give up and givethe excuse of well, I have bad
genetics.
Speaker 2 (09:25):
I will never believe
that yeah.
Speaker 1 (09:27):
I will never believe
that, because I believe we all
have the ability to own ourhealth.
Speaker 2 (09:36):
I think we can beat
genetics, except for the
baldness?
I think so.
Yeah, well, we can go to Turkeyand get your hair.
I'm not doing that, I'm good.
Speaker 1 (09:43):
You know, I believe
if, if you don't control your
genes but you control yourhabits, you don't control your
genes, but you do control yourhabits, your blood work, your
mobility and your recovery.
Excellence is built, notinherited.
And again I'll go back to likefor some people that's easier
than others.
There are some people who arenaturally lean, there are some
(10:04):
people who are naturallyoverweight and you know, I've
seen you've talked about beforelike you have to work to
continue to put on muscle.
Otherwise you feel like you loseit very quickly.
See, I come from a differentballpark man.
Like I, have a history ofpeople in my family that were
bigger your dad's jacked, and soyeah, not as much.
(10:25):
But they're also like five, five.
There's, there's pros and conseverywhere, um, but you know you
just you have to take steps toown your health.
You have to own it.
And then number five here isyour future.
Family, business and missionneed the healthiest version of
(10:49):
you.
You're not training for justaesthetics, you're training for
endurance, for legacy.
You're not training for justaesthetics, you're training for
endurance, for legacy.
And to me, like one of thebiggest parts of that is like
when I'm home and not travelingon the road, I've intentionally
put a gym in my house so thatwhen my kids wake up in the
morning, first thing they see isdad in the gym, whether I'm
(11:09):
actually working out or I justfinished and I'm drenched in
sweat, like that's what I wantmy kids to see, like that's how
I want my kids to see, likethat's how I start my day.
And then, on top, of that likeI want them to see the way dad
operates.
Because of that, I think thatit's important to remember.
Like you don't want to justlook good at 35.
Like you want to aim todominate it 65, 75, 85, right
(11:35):
Until the Lord calls me home andI'm in the ground.
Like my goal is to look andfeel and operate as best as I
possibly can.
You know people will take digson me all the time of.
Like you know I walk in a roomand because of the way that I
(11:55):
train and eat, like I captureattention and people.
But oh, but wait till you're.
Wait till you're my age, waittill you're in your 60s don't
get me started on that one.
And I'm like you're foolingyourself because I'm gonna look
like this or better, hopefully Iweigh less.
That would be my goal.
Um, like I'm not.
You look the way you lookbecause at some point in time
you gave up of your choices.
That would be my goal.
Like I'm not, you look the wayyou look because at some point
(12:17):
in time you gave up.
Speaker 2 (12:18):
Of your choices.
Yeah, it's choices, becauseI've had people in the past.
This is a while ago.
Wait until you hit 40.
I'm there, things change.
You know Right, 50 is the nextone.
I'm still going to be doingwhat I'm doing, right?
You just don't.
You don't train today.
You train for the man you wantto be 20 years from now, 30
(12:41):
years from now, so on.
Speaker 1 (12:42):
Yeah, and the
protocol is going to change with
every milestone.
Speaker 2 (12:47):
Yeah, you know with
what food we have in this
country.
You know with everythingprocessed and most of everything
processed, and you know that's.
Another thing that people needto be more mindful on is what
you're putting into your body.
You know people wantconvenience.
That's why McDonald's isthrough the roof.
(13:07):
It's like convenience.
I'm leaving I'll just say Ileft East Lake a couple times
and I see people pulling thatTaco Bell at 10 am for breakfast
.
I'm like, quit gettingconvenience and pull some eggs
out of the refrigerator and makesome eggs.
Man, you know, people don't diefrom age.
(13:28):
They die from neglecting theirbody.
Neglecting their body,neglecting their health,
neglecting their movement.
You only got one body for theride, right, you got to prime it
.
Take care of the motor,everything Well it's funny.
Speaker 1 (13:45):
People are like but
eggs are so expensive.
I'm like you just paid for halfa dozen eggs in that one nasty
breakfast that you just ate yeah.
So it's all in mindset and howyou think about it.
Speaker 2 (13:58):
It is, yeah, it's
convenience.
That's how society is today.
It's convenience.
Look at Amazon Convenience.
You know I'm not going to lie.
I use Amazon because it'sconvenient.
Speaker 1 (14:07):
Everybody uses Amazon
.
Speaker 2 (14:15):
So that's how this
society is wired and it's just.
You know, there's some thingsyou need to be mindful of and
and take some action on, andyour body and your health is one
of them.
Yeah, so, and like you said,you stepping in or step inside
of a room or a conference roomwith people and when they see
you looking like that, they'relike, okay, this dude know what
he's doing, this dude knows whathe's talking about.
You know it.
It's the truth.
(14:35):
Even andy's said that.
You know, sal has said that you, you know.
Uh, this might hurt somefeelings, but it's like, if you
hire a dietician and they'reoverweight, are you gonna hire
that one?
Are you gonna hire the onethat's actually in good shape,
right?
so that shouldn't hurt anybody'sfeelings like that's just real
life I know, but there's gonnabe some dieticians who possibly
(14:57):
are obese and they're actuallythen they need.
Speaker 1 (14:59):
They need to follow
their own guidance.
Speaker 2 (15:00):
So but they're gonna
say it's genetics so that's true
.
Speaker 1 (15:05):
So I'll leave you
guys with this one I believe you
.
You won't get the opportunityto lead well and at a high level
over the next decade, twodecades, if you neglect your
body.
Longevity isn't luck.
It's built through disciplineand decisions and consistency.
And you got to start now, yep.
Speaker 2 (15:27):
So that's it.
That's it, man.
We'll see you in the next one.
