doing today?

Speaker 5 (01:11):
I'm doing fantastic. I'm excited to be.

Speaker 4 (01:13):
Hugh great and you're joining us from South America. Yep.

Speaker 5 (01:19):
I moved to Pugwae three weeks ago because it's quoting
kinda don't going to be until June and then go back.

Speaker 4 (01:28):
This is a man that's this well travel that knows
how to get around, but more importantly, he knows his
way to get around this obesity crisis. And I had
the pleasure of running into his content on Twitter. Daniel
and I have been exchanging tweets and messages for quite
a while and it's my fault. Guys. He should have
been on this show a long time ago because his

(01:48):
story is the curve and I'm not gonna share all
of it, but I'll let him talk about it. But
he was born in Israel. He knew the China with
his family when he was six, and he hated Chinese,
so you only need McDonald's until he was the age twelve.
At age twelve, he started playing basketball, started to improve
his diet, started trying new foods. We started to become

(02:09):
very confident in all the basketball court but nowhere else.
And in at age seventeen, he started working out more
seriously and realized that he could take this information with
him anywhere and became more confident. So I'll let you
speak on that, Daniel, Like what made your fuse to
get involved in his battle against Obachs.

Speaker 5 (02:31):
Deffinitely. So firstly, when I arrived to China in two
thousand and four, it's extremely different than what it is
now because now it is extremely wisnized. But like you said,
there was McDonald's and hardcourture Neese food. And what many
Americans don't understand is that Chinese food in China is
very different than Chinese food in America. It's not and

(02:52):
the experience, it's not the China talent that you go to.
It's extremely different. It's exactly what you imagine movies, those
dogs hanging upside down with the skin peeled. There was
alsot of animals that I didn't even know people ate,
so that was it just doesn't flow. Was in fap
tho and six. It was not working ze at all,

(03:15):
so much so that they've never seen a non Chinese person.
I was actually a child model for the first couple
ins because I was so unique. I stood out so
much for everyone else. So that's what Channa was like.
And as you mentioned other McDonald's, I did not eat
anything because I was interally picking it too. But at

(03:37):
the age of wealth, my brother convinced me that if
I wanted to get birther playing basketball, I have to
eat healthy. And that was pretty much any die except
what I was doing. So because I started playing basketball,
I wanted to improve. I tried new foods and I
be able to remember the first time I tried grill cheese,
I tried a banana, anything that wasn't chickenagan. I remember

(04:00):
trying it out. I was that picky of a met
so I definitely believe anyone can explain that drastically. As
you mentioned, I started getting more nutrition. I stopped eating
complete drunk and I was not in the billship. I
was playing basketball, but I wasn't like muscular and concinnitting

(04:20):
my body. But I started lifting weight. I started spending
more time in the gym, and I realized that I
took my body with me every where I went. It
was a much more transphoble skill because unless there was
a basketball in my hand, I couldn't show off that skill.
But I could show off or look good everywhere I went.

(04:41):
So the confidence translated and yeah, that in courts me
to become a personal trainer. I went to university in
Canada for extra nutrition to at first be a physiotherapist,
but I decided I'd rather be a personal trainer. Walked
in a few gyms.

Speaker 4 (04:59):
Then.

Speaker 5 (04:59):
I'm sure Richard, a few people in your audience have heard.
In twenty twenty there was a lockdown thing going on,
so changed my plan and that is when I started
doing online coaching. And the reason why I decided to
work with people that are three hundred pounds and give

(05:20):
them two one pounds without going with the gym is
because I don't know about your audience. But in twenty twenty,
when everything shut down, I personally was not prepared at all.
I didn't have dumbles, I didn't have dands. I didn't
know this was gonna happen. I didn't know what this
was gonna happen for as long as it did, so
all of a sudden, I could not go to the gym. However,
because I had over a decade of experience, I still

(05:43):
was able to get myself in phenomenal shape to get
great results because I knew what to do and a
metaphor I like to use is good and Ramsey chef
can make a ring work with one pan.

Speaker 4 (05:56):
Then the advert.

Speaker 5 (05:57):
Supposed ten with five, because it's not about how much
equipment you have, it's about knowing what to do. Because
I knew what to do, I was able to get
great resources home, and I realized that many people that
ede going to the gym, the people that often need
the most help, had going to the jam. So that
is why I decided to help people who need the

(06:21):
most help, people that I would run to Uncoulens lose
work with undoing to the gym, because I know it's possible.

Speaker 4 (06:26):
And if you specifically Daniel, you have so many different people.
And again, as I mentioned, this is what really attracted
me to your story, that you don't keep the information
for yourself, because this is great for people to go
through a journey and overcome this and do things for
them sales to make themselves healthier. But you made your
point to reach out to people that really needed help.

(06:49):
So you're throwing a life You're literally throwing a lifeline
to people and extending your knowledge and your expertise and
your information and helping people transition their lives. You have
pictures of people that you've helped to transition lose over
one hundred pounds. But how do you start that conversation.
You have a lot of people. Unfortunately, there are a

(07:11):
lot of people who will have good intentions. They want
to lose the weight, but they don't have the they
don't have the motivation, they don't have the wheel pop.
But listen, you have people that, to use an analogy,
they want to go shopping at Louis Luton, but they
have Walmart utality it's going. So how do you get
that out of some As a coach.

Speaker 5 (07:32):
That's an extra question because, as we all know, in
generally for most people that have neglected exercises, eating healthy
for months, all of a sudden say I'm going to
walk out in the gym two hours every single day.
I'll drink two gowns of water at least nothing but
bananas and letters for the next year. That's the plan,

(07:55):
and honestly, they don't stick with it. That is impossible.
That is achieving way too high. I take the option approach.
I say, let's start with the one I call the
easy ways, things that take minimum time, minimum effort, but
still move the needle in the direction you want it.
To and when you see momentum, then you want to continue,

(08:17):
because I believe people don't lack motivation, the lack tangible results.
When you see the scale go down after week, when
you see your close fit better every single week, you
want to continue. And that is how I'm able to
convert external motivation to interl motivation, because watching motivational videos

(08:39):
only lasts so long. But when you're able to develop
internal motivation inside of you, then you look forward to
it and doesn't matter what happens, You're able to continue.
You're able to overcome many obstacles that might come your way.

Speaker 4 (08:55):
And those of you that have been following the show
for a while, I've ranted about this time topic so
many times, and I'm glad that you mentioned that, because
there's a difference between having a resolution and a revolution.
A resolution means, hey, I have a thought, I have
an idea, this is what I want to do. A
revolution is a change of the entire process, just a

(09:19):
shift in mindset. It's a shift the focus. It's to
shift their lifestyle and in order to accomplish a goal
and sustain it. Because you get it. You have people
that lose weight all the time and they go right
back because they had their resolution, they accomplished their goal,
and then that was it. They didn't have any affrics.
So how do you keep so on track? You have

(09:40):
people that you got to the fire, sorry, how do
you keep them there?

Speaker 5 (09:45):
It's all about, as you mentioned, making a labs of change,
driving for in a particular diet. Because if you want
to lose twenty pounds, you can do vegan, you can
do a kid or you can do it to me
fast than you can do anything. But like you mentioned,
off times, after ninety days people lose twenty pounds, then
they get it all bad. But if you make a

(10:06):
lifestyle change, then you're able to lose one hundred pounds
and keep it off for good and make a life
style change is changing who you are as approached. It
doesn't matter what country you put me in. I can
always drive from put A to prooved B because I
haven't the skills, I have a job of accidents. I
can drive any who. Even though some countries might have

(10:27):
different rules some countries it's more chaotic to drive, I
can still get it done. And that's the difference between
having the skills and having actual full having a taxi
drive you, because if you have somebody to drive you,
if you have somebody do it for you and you
don't develop the skills, then as soon as you're in
a different place, you can't get those as you want.

Speaker 4 (10:52):
There you touched on this, but I'm gonna I'm gonna
ask anyway because there are a lot of people who
have do it yourself mentality. I always think of one
of my favorite shows was Home Improvement, and he would
always talk about all these projects that he's gonna do
and blah blah blah, like nothing ever got done because
he had a mindset that I can do this, I

(11:12):
don't need help. And that's not the case for a
lot of people. For honestly, for most people, because when
you think about success in a small vacuum, anyone who's
ever accomplished sustainable success at some level, they had someone
to help them along the way. They have someone coaching it.
So talk to me about the importance of having good coach,

(11:35):
having a coach and a support system. As a potasto
as well.

Speaker 5 (11:38):
The journey un percent our good Bloxer is arrogantget thinks
I don't need a coach, I can do it on
my own. Mike Eisen says all these success is due
to his coach. Same thing with Michael Jordan, Tom Brady
named any of your favorite athletes, they would put a
lot of emphasised and a lot of the success due

(12:03):
to colds to make all the difference, because just like
a Joba license, could have I taught myself how to
drive it on my own without any help, maybe it
would have definitely taken a lot longer out of the
lobby treaction got injured along the way. Same thing with fickness.
Could you do it on your own? Yeah, but if
you get injured, what the consequence of that? How much

(12:26):
more will it set you bear? So you can figure
out anything on your own, you don't need to go
to school, you don't need to talk to anyone ever.
You can roll your own food, You can do everything
on your own. But you won't have nearly as much
success you left on be nearly as good. You won't
be able to grip the rewards of the pleasures of

(12:47):
life as if you help out other people and you
pay for other people to help you out.

Speaker 4 (12:54):
We live in the information age, and it's both a
blessing and a curse at the same time. Is there's
so much information out there, and as you mentioned, you
can do the research, you can you can absolutely find
information out there, but fortunately there's a lot of misinformation,
both intentionally and unintentional. There are a lot of people

(13:16):
out there they know the solutions and that they share
things that are not fact based. And let's call it
what it is. Wellness is big business is big money.
There's a lot of company. There are a lot of
companies out there that have very little or no intentions
of you being healthy because they don't have a they
don't have a vested financial interest in your health. If

(13:39):
you live longer, if you live healthier, if you don't
eat ultral processed foods. There are companies that lose money
when you eat healthier. There are companies that when you
don't go to the drive through in order that number
three with the supersized faries and the supersized drake, they're
profit lize shrinks. There are companies that when you're not

(14:00):
sick or on medicine, or you're having to run to
the doctor every of the week, or you're on dialysis,
they don't make money. And so unfortunately there is a
connection there between ultra process throughs pharmacy, et cetera, and
a lot of information that's out there, it's simply not accurate.

(14:21):
One of the things that I think of, and without
naming the name, but you go into the grocery store,
and you, guys know where I'm want with this. You
walk down a cereal aisle and you'll see cereals that
are part of a healthy, balanced diet. They're hard healthy,
they're packed with vitamin C. If we had doctor Holly

(14:42):
Laughton on here, who's our chief medical advisor, and the
analogy she gave stuck to me so because she said,
yes there is vitamin C or whatever protein that they claim,
the same thing is now. The same thing is true
as if you have a pool and you drop a
medicine ropper m D in it. Yes, they're vitamin D

(15:03):
and they pool. But how much? Yeah? So, how do
you help people to decipher a fat? Who fix you? Fat?

Speaker 5 (15:13):
Couckly? I want to charge on a point that you
made that whenever you want to know who to trust
and what to spend your money on, ask how do
they make the most money? How do they pop it
the most? Because when you buy a work class pill
or some sort of pharmacy medication. They make the most

(15:35):
money by you continue being on the pill and getting
more of it. Even if you look at I used
to be in post personal training movie, how do most
gyms make money? Most gyms make money by you setting
up and you're not going to the gym because they
count on the fact that aged nine percent of the
people that sign up don't go more than once and one.

(15:56):
That's what they hopeful. That is the business. That's how
we survive. That's how they drive. And if you look
at not me, if you look at any fitness courts,
public that has based that's not a solid brand. But
as a real person, they make the most money by
having the most mournings you're getting best results. Is they

(16:20):
have more best interest because that's how they make more
money most morning. That's that big farmer. I also want
to profit the most. However, how they profit the most
is you being in warship. How I profit the most
happens to me. You being the best ship because I
want more refers mots to mornings. So just wanted to
touch on that. But to answer your previous question about

(16:42):
how I get people to do this is look at
it from a more sustainable approach. The goal isn't to
look good for an Instagram picture in ninety days. The
plant is to sustainably lose the weight and keep it
off for the next decade. And you do that by
pulling something that you can do over the next decade.

(17:04):
If you're constant with a dock for dead, there's no
point you doing before a day. So I believe if
a dot has the name, it's probably not sustainable. Kido
a vigin into much faster than you can name it.
Those walk great for some people for a short period
of time, but for most people you can't sustain it
over the dogtop.

Speaker 4 (17:23):
Absolutely. As a card carrying water heater, I say I
have no shame to say that I'm one of those
people that just I struggle to just drink water. It
was something that I really had to overcome in order
to start the trend towards my wellness goal. It was
a huge part of me Loves one hundred and twenty hours.

(17:45):
I continue to have that battle, and I think a
lot of people don't understand the value of hydration and
how significant it is in your wellness. So can you
talk to me about how important is hydration and water
some ways that we can stay properly hydrad.

Speaker 5 (18:02):
That's a great question, because three out of four working
adults are quantity hydrated, cause them to look and fill
biltad have less energy, have more headaches, a bunch of
bad things. And I always say, have a water bottle
within I was rich at all times. It's super beneficial.
That is one of the many easy wins. It doesn't

(18:23):
really take time, doesn't really take effort, but it moves
the needle in your favor because the more hydrated you are,
the less hunger you order, less likely to binge on
junk food. Now, if you forget to always have a
water bottle with an arms each, you can also have
three different water bottles and the three locations you spend
the most time in, so that can be the car,

(18:45):
the office, the living as an example, And that way
you always have a water bottle close by. So it's
difficult to forget. Because if I'm working on a project
and I have to walk thirty seconds to take a
water bottle, I probably wouldn't do it. But if lights
have to reach it makes it a lot easier to
stay hydrated. Another thing you do is drink from a

(19:07):
straw instead of a bottle, and honestly try different bottles.
As word that sounds some bottles, it's just easier to
drink water. You just want to drink water, even though
water tastes that water. Different bottles make your crab more
water than other bottles, So keep trying it out, and

(19:27):
probably the best step to stay hydrated is to just
not even drink water, but consume foods or drinks that
have a lot of water in there. Wattle, tea, soda
and by soda, I don't mill coke, stride seven er
and smoking water. An you have that, you can get soup,

(19:48):
especially if you're in a cold country. Soap it's basically water.
Vegetables and meat fantastic choice, so you can always get
souper and get far. You can get tea any of that,
and also fruits. Something that I have we tried three
weeks ago that I've never tried before but now I'm
in love with it is papaya. I think it's limbed,

(20:11):
and I'm in a tropical pace, so they have a
lot of papaya, but also watermelon, po coos, melin cantaloon.
All of those have a lot of water in them. Lologroots,
have a lot of water in them. Just eat a
bunch of those and that will not only fills rock,
but it's not easier to remain hydrate. Our whole papaya,

(20:34):
which is bigger than your face, is one hundred and
twenty capa's pho no and you can. It makes you
feel fool. So if you eat that, you don't even
have to worry about trunk to limit how much eat.
It is as much propie as you want as an example,
or blueberries or watermelon or can't look whatever you like.
It is much of that as you like, and then

(20:54):
you don't have to worry about duration, and you don't
have to worry about overeat because you'll feel super fools
throughout the day.

Speaker 4 (21:03):
Absolutely, we are going to take a quick water break.

And we are back. We are so grateful to have
all of you have to join us here with our
new teammate, mister Daniel Res. I want to reemphasize something
that will said. Obesity is a medical condition, not a
character flaw. So make sure you understand and share that
because there's a lot of misinformation about what obese is.

(26:10):
It has very little to do with your character. There's
so many different layers and caveats to this disease. It's
one of the most complex diseases out there, and unfortunately
it doesn't get diagnosed as it is because it's sneaky,
it's deceptive, it hides behind other conditions. But it's the
root costs. So that's what we're doing here, is we're

(26:33):
attacking and we're addressing the root costs. I want to
send a shout out to all of our teammates, to
my friends Kevin and Vale the food Eat stay fit.
I tried that breakfast Bowld recipe to Thursday High Need recomends,
so definitely go check them my own Instagram. It is delicious.
Thank you so much, sister. This thank you so much.
I love it. We love you, and we continue to

(26:55):
grow this team. So your favorite person who is in
this battle against obesity, if they got stories to share,
if they got struggles, they got challenges, tag them bringing
me it. We want to grow this team. Our goal
is to fill an entire NFL stadium with people that
are in this ballot against obesity. That's how series we are.

(27:17):
Again and again we're thankful to have with our newest
member of the team, coach Day and Rads here as
they to talk to us about this battle. And we
are not about talk. We're about phield around here because
we follow the mindset, the same mindset in football. It's
film over feelings. So I want to show you for
those of you that are on the live and if

(27:37):
you're listening to the radio station, you can go to
our website as CDs. Before that photos These are people
that specifically Daniel helped coach to success. So I go this,
go ahead and look at the first photo here. Look
at this man that he went from June to October.
So tell us about this gentleman Daniel.

Speaker 5 (27:56):
So this is Sebastian. He has two young kids, and
just like all of my best stimonials, he was extremely
skeptical and he didn't think it would work for him.
He didn't think online coaching would help. He was stremely busy,
didn't think it was even possible. But he actually was
able to lose fifty pounds, go from two fifty to

(28:17):
two hundred in those four months, despite what being shouldn't
be hectic, despite him walking from home, because he did
everything right. He communicated with me every day, and I
would say, the difference between my class that gets phenomenal
results and the class that only get good results, then
the class that gets the normal results communicate with me
every day, every time without traveling, and they let me

(28:39):
know whenever. Then a restaurant they send in a picture
of the menu, whenever lack is extra hectic, they tell
me about it. Because if you say everything's good, and
when things are not good, if you didn't tell me
that you ate the doughnut, if you notice, pretend it's
all sound saying rainbows when you had a bad day,

(28:59):
and then I can help you out but if you
let me know, hey I messed up. I ate two donuts,
and I'll be like, Okay, cool, your problem. You don't
have to punish yourself. Let's just keep going as it is,
because that is not a boulevard green lights. There's going
to be ups and downs. But difference between up tour
lasting a week up to lasting a decade is simply

(29:21):
having somebody to make those changes when things are ectic.
And he let me know it, communicated with me absolutely
every day, and that's where you got such phenomenal results.

Speaker 4 (29:34):
This is the mark of a good coach. He gave
you a flashback back to my days as a player.

Speaker 7 (29:39):
Now.

Speaker 4 (29:39):
I remember my first All Pro season. I was really
feeling myself because like I was natives All Pro. Yeah,
I'm the best tackle in the league. That's literally what
being an All Pro music. I'm the best. I'm the
best in my position, ascolated by my peers. And I
came into camp that next year and I was very
much out of see and I failed the condition test.

(30:00):
So they have a test for players when you come
back to camp. They give you condition to drills just
to make sure that you know you weren't just goofing
off too much in the off season. I was I
grouped all the way up and I couldn't even run
up other New York So I got dropped from being
a starter to practice squad just like that. And now,
mind you, I'm an off pro, but that helped me

(30:23):
so much to stay focused because nothing's a given. Your
health isn't a given, your livelihood and vitality aren't a given.
And just because you make it to a point where
you get close to your goal or you achieve a goal,
that don't mean that you stop and quit. That don't
mean you go back to the things that you were
doing before. So you in a very nice with me

(30:45):
as compared to what ice fears you got. You redirected
your client back to what made him successful and the
things like sending you the pictures, talking to you about
the bad days, tough times, and all that. These are
key things that as you mentioned, it's something between someone
who's highly successful a soul who just gets by. So

(31:06):
this is the difference between an all pro somebody who's
burially on the teeth. So it's great that you pointed
that out. We have an acronym that we use here
as it pertains to willness. It's called the nerd concept,
nutritionize wrists, and deep strips. You gotta do all four
of those things. And it's great that you highlighted that,
and this just really shows that. Again, we base our

(31:28):
content here on results. So we have another picture here
with one of your other clients. Let's pull up with them. Wow,
look at this. Tell us what this June. So this
is Tim.

Speaker 5 (31:38):
He's sixty seven years old and he's actually for Germany.
So even though those a ten our time zone difference,
we're still able to get him phenomenal results. He came
to me with what is called a quote unquote reduction mecabitolism.
He said he tried everything. It's impossible for him to
lose weight no matter.

Speaker 4 (31:57):
What he does.

Speaker 5 (31:59):
And yeah, he also troubles a lot because he's an
assistant movie producer who he's never in the same place.
He didn't know what he was going to eat because
he was always in different restaurants. But he was still
able to get phenomenal results even though he walked out
at home, because again I didn't tell him to run
a mirthd on or to do a bunch of pull

(32:20):
ups or give him anything that he physically couldn't do.
We started with very simple EXERCISESNPU shops, simply walking for
twenty minutes a day or wall slides. If you're not
know what that is, you can go to my Twitter page.
I post a bunch of different exercise examples, but exercise
that he physically could do, because when he tried other

(32:41):
programs he couldn't even physically do the exercise. Because he
is a beginning, he did have the strength to do it,
and because he didn't have the strength to do it,
he gave up. But when I dialed the intensity back
and allowed him to succeed and doork says that he
could do, he got encouraged and he saw progress, and

(33:04):
that is when interil motivation kicked in. And even though
with his nutrition, even though he kept on moving to
different places, we focused on the basics. When you're eating
out a vote solders, you can order double meat, you
can always order a ball and serve the ritual. There's
always certain options. And because he always sent me the

(33:24):
menu of the options of the food that's available, and
he told me what would he liked and he didn't like,
I was able to guide him and point hey, eat
more of this, eat less of that. So despite him
never having the same meal because he was never in
the same restaurant, never in the same place, you're still
able to get resorts because again, he communicated with me

(33:45):
a lot, and we started gradually. He didn't lose with
the one hundred pounds in a week or a month, right,
this is a long process, but he started the process.
He kept commuittting with me, and yeah, was able to
lose weight despite being in his late sixties.

Speaker 4 (34:04):
And this shows that there's no there are no boundaries
to your ability to achieve success. You have a young client,
you have an older client, and they both had the
same track, they both had the same mindset, and most importantly,
they both had a strong coach who helped them get
across the finished. Lite mentioned something that I really think
is important because a lot of people are busy, especially

(34:26):
after COVID and after we're getting back to lifestyle where
we're actually adopt boots on the ground, we're going back
to the office, we're going back, we're back in the
schools now. We got so many different carveats. A lot
of people and forgive me folks that take this the
wrong way, but a lot of people use that as
an excuse, and you were able to coach clients around that.

(34:48):
How do you break that barrier of people using their
busy lifestyle as an excuse not to accomplish wellness? Definitely?

Speaker 5 (34:57):
So I had mentioned the conceptly of easy wins couple
of times, so I'm going to dive into it because
once you master all the easy wins, you're able to
lose weight without taking any extra time. And once you
see the skill go down with you spending zero extra
time within your week, that word abates you to obviously

(35:18):
do it when you can be busy and your life
does get less hectic, then you're able to go into
or draft in terms of your results. So I'm gonna
give you a example of easy wins so you can
do it even if you have zero time. You're not
spending any extra time. Quick example, with the people that
are watching this is a standing disk right now, I'm standing.
I knew that's going to have this conversation. Might as

(35:40):
well stand. Every time I'm talking on the phone, never sitting,
always standing and moving. I'm going to be talking anyways,
might as well move. They doesn't take any extra time.
But you're bonny more cans. As I mentioned previously, having
a water bottle within arms reach. It doesn't take time
to give more water, but it moves that they don't
in your faith. If you improve your sleep quality, you

(36:06):
your hormones are more balanced, meaning your grenulin leptin. Grenoline
is the hunger homon makes you hunger Youleptin is the
fullest hoble makes you feel follow Your homones are balanced,
so you're more You're less likely to crave junk food.
You're meant less likely to make bad decisions. If you
have ever been sleep deprived, you know that you're probably
on edge. You're probably more annoyed, you probably have made

(36:28):
decision you're not. But even though you might not be
able to get eight hours of sleep every day, you
can always control the quality. Obviously, if you do that,
then it's not easier to not be as hungry to
make bural choices. So three quick tips to improve your
sleep quality. Because again I can't snap my fingers and

(36:51):
make it so that there's twenty five for twenty six
hours in the day, allow you to sleep for an
extra hour. But if you improve sleep quality, it doesn't
matter how busy you are, you will rip the benefits. Firstly,
dark ist possible blackout curtains. You can cover any electronic
clutch with a towel. You can have an im ask.

(37:13):
Anything to make the room dark is possible. Secondly, cool
room temperature that's sixty five degres ferrenheit nineteen degrees cels use.
You can have a thick blanket in a thin blanket
to alternate. You can sleep naked. Once you do T one,
you never want to go back, or freedom. You can
take a hot shower, bath before bed. You can drink

(37:36):
hot tea before bed, anything to cool you down. Thirdly,
and ugably, the most important which everyone struggles with is
low stimulation. Before you want to avoid the news, social media,
arguing with people. Instead, you want to journal, meditate.

Speaker 11 (37:55):
That's absolutely one of my personal is that I'll add
in there is with these phones and devices, they have
the ability for you to preschedule.

Speaker 4 (38:06):
Like I have a sleep mode and at eleven PM
my phone goes into do not disturbed mode. The only
people that could interrupt my sleep or my wife and
my children and it and they know it dark if
she's not with me, but it dark will bit of
be an emergency and so all my calls go to voicemail,

(38:27):
all my notifications for social media, all all of my
text messages. It'll go through. But I won't pay my phone.
It's not going to interrupt me. I'm sleep. It is
not a revival to get that sleep.

Speaker 5 (38:37):
Here doesn't show you and your two tips that you
can do on your phone right now that it should
have believe won't change your life postally, just as you mentioned, Richard,
go to your phone, click on doing the disturb and
accept fabruites and add fabrutes only people that actually matt
only people of that surely need you an emergency, and

(39:00):
that should probably only be a few people shouldn't be
your entire phone list. That way, if you're getting random
text messagers r readom phone calls from scamdows, which happen
with all of us, they don't wake you up in
the middle of the night because even if you don't
answer the phone, if you hear a text message that
keeps you off, you don't want them put your phone
on during this stowable applin load and you're simply our favorites.

(39:21):
So if there's an emergency, you can handle that. And
another thing I recommend everyone to do is to put
your phone on gray scale. So if you have an iPhone,
go to settings, then in the search of boll type
color filters, go down to color filters, press on and
then there's gray skill and then stead of coddlers, your

(39:41):
phone is all gray and that makes you wells addicted
to your phone, and especially at the night, you won't
waste time scrolling or wasting a bunch of time. And
if you do that, you probably save yourself an extra
hour two three hours a day for mindless scrolling because
you won't to have as much do for men. I
can spend the time walking out. So this is how

(40:02):
you created it, walking out time out of thin. Put
your phone on a gray scale all the time, in
my opinion, and you'll be way less atticed to your phone.
I think that's a tip that everyone should do.

Speaker 4 (40:17):
That's an incredible tip. That's the first time I heard it.
I'm gonna do that myself. It's incredible. And speaking of
technology again, this is also something that could be both
a blessing and it curse. We do have technology now
I'm wearing a smart watch. I won't say your name
because you haven't paid us yet, so you know who
you are. If you want to have your name mitchellell

(40:39):
tackle BC show hit us up and we'll be happy
to represent your bread. But I'm not saying you until there.
But smart technology, phones, watches, there's even a ring now
that I saw. I have a smart scale. I have
food scale that talks to my phone. I have an
app where I can take a picture of food and
it logs it. Me and my wife and I have

(41:00):
a group just between the two of us, but we
can add more people that we wanted to. Where she
shares what she eats, I share what I eat, et cetera.
So we're keeping each other, cowboy, that's the good stud
I think it's just example. There are so many other things.
There's even smart exercise equipment. There's a excuse me, jump ropes,
you name it. I haven't even even had a chance
to talk to my good friend Sean Merriman for San

(41:22):
Diego Charger. He's always gonna be saying there with me,
San Diego Charger. He has exercise equipment that has chips
in it, and he owns a Ultimate Fighting League and
so attracks the metrics of how fast they were moving,
how hard with punch, etcetera. He has this saying technology
in exercise equipment, so it tracks like your heart rate,

(41:44):
your welloot, push all of that while you're working out.
So there's an incredible amount of technology out there. Unfortunately,
there's a lot of technology out there that have the
opposite effect as eventioned social media is probably the big one,
but our lifestyles. We work on computers now mostly sit

(42:06):
at this all day. Children learn not from books or
there's even a struggle for power struggle between physical education
and electric learning. Kids aren't on the playgrounds anymore playing basketball, football,
and you were a basketball player, you can definitely relate
to this. Kids aren't out there playing basketball anymore. They're
playing the basketball on PlayStation or xbox. So how do

(42:30):
we break that cycle? And of course we can't get
rid of technology. We've had too many advances. We have
some things that we just we actually need. We have
some great advanceags of technology. But how do we break
that cycle of our dependence on technology and how it's
impacting us in a negative way as it pertaining to
this wellness journey.

Speaker 5 (42:50):
That is a ptixic question, and I think everyone want
past kids stud realize that you lect you and your
cad to exercise more and to sub and video games
into it. Less junk food probably won't do anything. But
if you live by example, if you don't even say

(43:10):
anything to your kids, but they see you drop one
hundred pounds, they will likely follow and say, hey, my
dad did this, maybe I can do it too. If
instead lecturing them, you take ownership and say, hey, I'm
going to invest in my health because this is important
to me, and I want you to figure this out
on my own because I've held on my own and

(43:32):
that's okay. I'll hire a professional. Rules done this tons
of times with people just like me, and they see
you transformed, they see you blows a round pounds and
keep it off for good, they will have so much
more belief in themselves that they can do it too.
Because if you look at your kids in the eyes
and say, hey, you can accomplish anything, but your health

(43:54):
does not where you want it to be. Life isn't
where you want it to be. They're not going to
believe you. But there's a lot of more confidence that
can be portrayed when you talk when you have actually
done something that's meaningful and something that's not easy. So
if you think about, hey, I'm doing this, not this
for myself, but for the kids. The reason why I'm

(44:17):
overcoming this huge challenge is shoes is burier is because well,
then about me, I'll be an inspiration toward those Because Sebastian,
the first person you showed who lost fifty pounds, his
brother didn't see him for a few months and then
he kept touching him, be like, why hadn't do someone's weight?
This is crazy? That motivated him. It didn't I BASI

(44:37):
didn't have the leectuous brother or be like, hey, you
should do the same. He is that Okay, wow, I
see it's possible now because if you see someone on
social media, I lose a hundred pounds, that's cool. Whatever do.
But if your family, man, if somebody that you forced
me know who you're encoducted with, and they didn't ask
that weight, they you'd inspire them there would really I

(45:00):
want you to take it out. Remember that making the
changes more than just about you you originally have God,
I go to influence and be pushing that you come
in contact with just body period has in yourself.

Speaker 4 (45:13):
Absolutely and that is that is such amazing information that
you shared there, because as you mentioned, it's great to
see things on social media. But going through this journey,
you're a walking billboard of sussists. All the people that
you get interacted with, they see the live reading example
of it before and after, and I personally, when I
went through my journey we did which I'm still going through,

(45:36):
I had people ask was I okay, Are you okay?
I saw that you lost a lot of week. You
look sick, and I had to redirect those comments because
I'm not sick now because I lost one hundred and
twenty pounds. I was sick when I was four hundred
and twenty five pounds. I was sick when I had gout,
when I had high blood pressure, when I had an
able to see level that was elevated to pre diabetes

(45:59):
that I didn't know about, when I had art pamputations,
when I couldn't even walk from one side in parking
lot to theater. That's what I'm sick, not what I
lose weight and I'm more vital. So that is that's
the reprogramming that we have to do in these conversations
about what obesity is and just redirect people's mindsets. Thank

(46:21):
you Kathleen for the comment. There learn a lot from you.
That's what We're all about We're glad that you're learning
and continue to share this content because that's what we're
all about. It's about We're about learning. And we have
another comment here for Russell. Sleep is critical. If you
are awake, you absolutely if you are awake, you will
heat absolutely, So great comments there. So one of the

(46:42):
things I do want to touch touch on is understanding
what wellness is. And that was I said wellness not
wait because weight is. I think of it like this,
I think a week. It's like how much gas you
have in the take of your card, which is fine
if you're if you're gas is off full. What about

(47:02):
if the battery lights on, the check engine lights on
your car is overheating the front passenger, the lightbulb is
out and that light is on, your brake lights are on.
So they are metrics. There's a dashboard of different things
that tell you. These are indicators for those of you
who are driving around it in your car with their
service engine light on. It's not a decoration. Your car

(47:24):
is trying to tell you your something's wrong. Your body
does the same thing in subtle ways or sometimes not
so subtle ways. So what are some things that you
coach your clients on other than weight that they should
be looking at as factors for their wills.

Speaker 5 (47:41):
That's a great question because you can smoke, crack and
jet ho and you like can lose a bunch of weight.
Because when you have jacky, all of them are extremely
stronged and they look like skeletons. That's like, go there
goes to be healthy now. Oftentimes the first step is
to simple views of weight because after that you are

(48:03):
able to do a lot more. When as you mentioned,
it doesn't matter if you have your engine died on
or you have a broken mirror. If you have no gas,
then you can't even drive a car and you can't
do anything. So you have to that's the first, but
it doesn't mean this is the first thing that you

(48:24):
should tackle. But a big reason why my coast don't
just lose weight, but they also experience a bunch of
benefits internally that they didn't even think about. Get off SEAPA,
get off medications, have a lot more energy to always
have the closet because nothing fits anymore, have less allergies.
A lot of people say that they sweat a lot less.

(48:45):
They used to always be hearty, even if it was
sixty degrees. Now they last ninety five thousands. They they're
not always sweating right, so they can fit better on
the plane or roller coaster rider and corson many things
that people even think about unless they actually experienced it.
People say that people treat them differently, more and even

(49:07):
strangers when they meet there. But there's so many other
benefits and as you mentioned, it's not about losing weight,
but doing it in a healthy way. Big concept I
like to drik to my client's head is that diet
is about a healthy diet is about expanding how much
food you eat, not minishap because it's how about eating

(49:30):
less but you enjoy. It's about finding new foods that
you'll enjoy. As I mentioned earlier, I've never tried propior
upparutuilles three weeks ago. Now I love it now. It's
a steep. So if every couple of weeks you try
new food that you've never tried before, a new food
or vegetables or fresh as an example, then mentionally you

(49:50):
find more foods that you enjoy and that are healthy
and tasty, and you addmit to you also in that way,
and so it's in less food to enjoy you expand
the amount of healthy, disty foods that you have, and
if you keep on expending gads, then you have a
lot of options of healthy, tasty foods. And if you

(50:11):
adopt any option of the time and losing weight and
being healthy, it becomes a lot easy.

Speaker 4 (50:17):
Absolutely, it is so important to understand understand the numbers.
Just like football, you have to understand what all those
numbers mean. More than just to score. You got to
understand how many yards you have Russia, how many yards
you're allowing turtles, all of that, all those numbers you
have to understand. For me with it's a putati wellness.
Other things such as as I mentioned, learning about what

(50:40):
a one C is. I know, I had never heard
of what a one C is until actually when it
got blood work done and I learned, ooh boy, I
was pre diabetic. I was all my way to having diabetes.
Check edge. Your life didn't come on yet, but it
was about you and things like per said body said,
proper hydration. The one that will come on. One of

(51:02):
the LIFs that will come on very quickly is your
blood pressure. I had elevated blood pressure. I was some
point where I had to take medicine, which I'm thankful
to say I'm no longer you know, required to have
take it just as result of losing weight. And that
check engine life for blood pressure is a critical one
because it leads to other things such as stroke or

(51:24):
heart disease, et cetera. So understanding your metrics is critical.
It's more than just the weight. It's more than BMI,
which is a common one if you look at BMI alone.
But one of the examples that I think of is
Dwayne Johnston aka the Rock, the popular movie star, wrestler,
whatever you want to call. If you based on BMI alone,

(51:46):
he's morbidly obeats. I think it's pretty fair to say
that's not the case. The eyeball test really tells us
that he's not morbally obeats. But that's an example of
why you don't look at just one thing, why you
don't just look at wait, why you don't just be
a min You have to look at the entire dish
with see our cars work. And that is just a

(52:06):
great piece of information that you great gave there. You've
provided us with so many wonderful tools and resources. If
for those that are listening or watching, if they want
