Speaker 1 (00:00):
How long can I do? What?

Speaker 2 (00:01):
Now?

Speaker 1 (00:01):
It's one more thing.

Speaker 2 (00:03):
I'm strong andy.

Speaker 1 (00:04):
One more thing. I'm a regular at the gym. My
son and I are. We go almost every day, rarely
miss a day at the gym. Came with the uh
place I rent. We're in a neighborhood where they got
a private club attached, and so we have a gym
membership and we can walk to it and it's about

(00:25):
a half mile each way, so it's great, get a
mile walk in, lift some weights, et cetera. I've noticed
all the young women they don't do a lot of
lifting weights or anything like that. They do all these
various kind of floor exercise stuff mostly lot.

Speaker 2 (00:42):
Yeah, that's kind of big right now. Yeah, it is, yeah,
because there are workouts you can do at home if
you don't have equipment.

Speaker 1 (00:50):
Right. Well, I've been saying forever just to like save
you time and money. If you're thinking of buying a
home gym or a membership at a club or whatever,
how about you try your floor. See if you can
use your floor every day for two weeks. And if
you can't, he ain't gonna do better with the gym
for the home gym equipment. If you can't do push

(01:10):
up sit ups. We're about to talk about planks, which
I've never done before, or any of that stuff. It's
just because it's really easy to fool yourself and think
if I had the equipment, I would do it, or
if I had the gym membership. But it's the doing
it is the hard part. Anyway. I'm pretty regular and
I mostly lift weights, but I feel like I should
do some of this other stuff starting with I need

(01:31):
to do some exercises for my buttocks. I want to
improve my buttocks. Yes, Michael squats, glut bridges, glute bridges.
I've heard that every time I google what you should
do for your buttocks, it says glut bridges. Explain that
what's a glut bridge?

Speaker 2 (01:51):
Lay on the floor on your back.

Speaker 1 (01:54):
Another floor exercise, don't need equipment.

Speaker 2 (01:56):
No equipment needed, Feed on the ground flat and knees bent.
Then yeah, thrust your pelvis straight to the sky over
and over again and eventually it's going to hurt.

Speaker 1 (02:08):
And you just like do it as many times as
you can or.

Speaker 2 (02:10):
Well, yeah, it depends. I mean, you can add weight.
You can put you know, a dumbbell across your hips
and make it a weighted you know, so do you bridge?

Speaker 1 (02:18):
Do you understand this concept of activating your glutes? Okay?
What is that all about? I there's this actually he's
actually a comedian, but he's got a YouTube channel and
he was talking about the activating your glutes and how
difficult that is, and if you don't activate your glutes
during an exercise, you're not going to increase them. And
it's how do you know if you've activated your glutes?

(02:38):
What the hell does that even mean?

Speaker 2 (02:40):
Well, I mean it's just by you activate them by
working out that particular muscle, Okay, So you would do
certain things that that pinpoint that particular muscle, because when
you have to use that muscle, you activate.

Speaker 1 (02:54):
That muschle, like glute bridges okay.

Speaker 2 (02:57):
Or lunges. Those are so fun.

Speaker 1 (03:01):
Yeah, And then I wanted to get to planks because
I'm gonna I want to try one. So I hear
about planks a lot. My son has had to do
them in school. Both my kids have dead do school
football practice that sort of stuff. I've heard the term
and I've never actually done one. I see all the
young people the gym doing all the time. So for
anybody who doesn't know, and I'm probably the only one
that didn't. You start face down on the floor. You
kind of look like you're gonna do a push up.

(03:22):
You place your fore arms flat, elbows right under your shoulder,
arms shoulder with the part. Then you engage your abs,
then push up on your forearms, so it's like you're
at the top of a push up, except you're on
your elbows and forearms instead of your hands. Right. Yeah,
and then you hold.

Speaker 2 (03:39):
It and you hold it and it is not a
good time.

Speaker 1 (03:44):
Keep hips and stomach lifted so your body forms one
straight line from ed deals again, it's like doing a
proper push up at the top. Yeah, tighten your core,
glutes and legs for stability. Breathe slow and steady, keep
your neck neutral, have a heart attack, nearly die. Oh
that's my part that I threw in. Ah uh, eyes
slightly down. I don't know. I have to keep my

(04:05):
eyes slightly down well.

Speaker 2 (04:06):
Because they don't want you bringing your head up, and
because I can mess with your neck.

Speaker 1 (04:10):
Okay, And then I have the how long you should
be able to do it at each age?

Speaker 2 (04:15):
Okay, I'm interested in.

Speaker 1 (04:17):
This, which is not very long. Now, this works your core,
which is I don't know everything from your knees to
your chest.

Speaker 2 (04:24):
I guess yeah, and you know some you know how
there are different types of like targeting sit ups, so
you can do like a certain crunch to work your
lower abs or your you know, a different type of class.

Speaker 1 (04:33):
I just don't know that, but I believe you.

Speaker 2 (04:35):
Okay, well you're yeah, there are different sit ups to
work different portions of your abs. Doing a plank handles
all of that.

Speaker 1 (04:43):
Yeah, it says it works thirty five different muscle groups,
which is why it's such a popular exercise. Yeah, thirty
five muscle groups one exercise including all kinds of different abs,
lower back, hips, glutes, diaphragm, pelvic floor. Oh, my pelvic
floor is spectacular. Oh, I'm sure you know. Uh, and
planks work them all.

Speaker 2 (05:02):
Yeah, are you gonna do one?

Speaker 1 (05:04):
I'm going to, but I want to get to the
how long?

Speaker 2 (05:06):
So?

Speaker 3 (05:06):
Uh?

Speaker 1 (05:07):
Just recently, a one hundred year old Long Island woman
made headlines by holding a five minute plank. Five minute
plank for one hundred year old woman of couse, she
probably weighs sixty pounds. She's made of dust. I mean,
what does she weigh? A six month old in Kentucky
melted hearts online by holding a plank for thirty four seconds.

Speaker 2 (05:29):
Oh that baby didn't know what it was doing, so
that's gonna shut up.

Speaker 1 (05:33):
I'm not sure the six month old knew what they
were doing.

Speaker 2 (05:36):
That's six month old looking at a timer, begging for
life not to end before its eyes. No, it doesn't
have any idea how hard this is. Later on, what
do you shoot for in terms of a length for
a plank? Just as long as you can, Just as
long as I can. I know, I know I can
hold it for longer than a minute.

Speaker 3 (05:53):
I know that.

Speaker 1 (05:53):
But do you do a Michael?

Speaker 4 (05:56):
No, No, I'm been afraid to.

Speaker 1 (05:58):
You've been afraid to do a plank? What are you
afraid it's going to happen?

Speaker 3 (06:00):
I don't know.

Speaker 2 (06:01):
It's just a pain.

Speaker 4 (06:02):
I gotta get you know, I do weights, but I
don't do anything for my stomach. I gotta get the
stomach exercises going.

Speaker 2 (06:08):
Both of you need to plank during this podcast.

Speaker 1 (06:10):
My biggest concern is that I'm going to flatulate.

Speaker 2 (06:14):
It'll be great for the podcast.

Speaker 1 (06:17):
So in your twenties, you should be able to do
a one to two minute plank. Okay, in your thirties. Uh,
keep that one to two minute going, but it's gonna
get harder then in your forties. Forties, one minute plank
is fine. In your fifties, shoot for a thirty to
sixty second plank, so it drops quite a bit in

(06:37):
your fifties, and then in your sixties and above. Try
to hold a plank for twenty to thirty seconds.

Speaker 2 (06:44):
Okay, you could, you can do thirty seconds.

Speaker 1 (06:46):
Uh, I would consider I'm gonna consider myself in my
fifties because I've only been in my sixties for like
sixty days.

Speaker 2 (06:51):
You could do it in a minute. You're you're fit,
so that means it's thirty to.

Speaker 1 (06:54):
Sixty Yeah, okay, So I gotta take up my suit,
so you're gonna have to time Michael.

Speaker 4 (06:59):
Okay, should I come in there or no?

Speaker 2 (07:01):
Michael? Yeah, uh huh, you have to do it as well.
I will time.

Speaker 1 (07:05):
Well, you can't see us from where you're sitting, though
Hanson can see us. Hanson, will you do the counting, Michael?
Why don't you come in here and we'll both do
them at the same time.

Speaker 2 (07:13):
This is exciting.

Speaker 1 (07:14):
This is exciting.

Speaker 2 (07:15):
So Hanson can play by play.

Speaker 1 (07:17):
Hanson's videoing it too, so this will be I'll be fantastic.

Speaker 2 (07:21):
You'll have to give us the exact moment when Jack's
entire body starts to shake.

Speaker 1 (07:25):
I wish I wasn't wearing dress shoes. I feel like
that's gonna make it harder because sloppy.

Speaker 2 (07:31):
Yes, no excuses, come on, Jim Man. Oh this is great.

Speaker 1 (07:38):
Taking this very seriously.

Speaker 2 (07:39):
People are looking into the studio, going, why is Jack stripping?

Speaker 1 (07:43):
What is michaelangel is wearing gymnasium shoes?

Speaker 2 (07:46):
So he's okay, okay, okay, I need to get in
proper now. Just remember core core engagement very important here.

Speaker 5 (07:54):
Who's gonna who's timing this? I will you'll all you'll
go and then you time it. Okay, Well, leave my
headphones on. How about you move over there, Michael, so
I can be here, Okay, when you are?

Speaker 2 (08:05):
We going for a minute or just go until you
can't and I'll tell you how long.

Speaker 3 (08:13):
How long I can do?

Speaker 2 (08:14):
All right, well, just yell, go and I'll let you
know how long you make.

Speaker 3 (08:16):
It on your mark. It's set, okay, straight handsome.

Speaker 2 (08:25):
Now at this exact moment, I can't see what's going on, Okay, Michael, Okay,
it sounds like Mike, we've already we're already losing Michael Angelo.
We're only at fifteen seconds. Oh am, I straight, interesting
question from a guy. We will continue. I no, okay,

(08:51):
we hit the thirty second mark. Guys, you're doing pretty good.
I think I don't hear any crying.

Speaker 3 (08:57):
Michael is shaking. I have no shaking going.

Speaker 2 (08:59):
Yes, okay, all right, straight.

Speaker 3 (09:01):
Enough hands, and I want to make sure.

Speaker 2 (09:03):
Yeah, if your butt is up in the air, you're cheating.

Speaker 3 (09:06):
It could be lower or higher.

Speaker 2 (09:10):
If you think about what it's called. It's called a plank,
flat like a board.

Speaker 3 (09:17):
All right, I am starting to get tired now.

Speaker 2 (09:20):
It has been one minute on the.

Speaker 3 (09:21):
Dot's satisfied the need for men in his sixties. I'll
see if I can satisfy.

Speaker 2 (09:29):
Okay, that's ambitious.

Speaker 1 (09:33):
Boy.

Speaker 2 (09:33):
I do not feel sorry for either one of you
right now. I am thoroughly enjoying this.

Speaker 3 (09:38):
It's starting to feel painful. Ye Where does it usually
hurt the most?

Speaker 2 (09:43):
In your core? It's going to be your abs are
going to be burning.

Speaker 1 (09:48):
Oh.

Speaker 3 (09:49):
I can't stop because I have to outlast Michelangelo. Okay,
no way, I'm quitting before he goes.

Speaker 2 (09:59):
There's no quiet word a minute, forty word a minute forty.

Speaker 3 (10:04):
It is starting to really hurt.

Speaker 2 (10:05):
Oh yeah, I believe it. Oh stop, did Michael tap?

Speaker 3 (10:15):
Michael's making noises, but he hasn't quit yet.

Speaker 2 (10:18):
Okay, as long as as long as nobody's died or flatulated,
I think we're okay.

Speaker 3 (10:23):
I really thought it would be easier to outlast him
than this. Okay, he's quit, he's quit. How long has
it been?

Speaker 2 (10:29):
All right? Two minutes? Ten seconds?

Speaker 5 (10:31):
Okay?

Speaker 3 (10:32):
It two and a half, all right? And this hurts Jesus,
Oh my god. Yeah, it's starting to be really painful. Yeah,
like really painful.

Speaker 2 (10:40):
All right, you got ten seconds, Jack, come on, don't
be a baby.

Tell me when I hit two and a half, and
I will quit.

That was That was the rest of Michael.

Speaker 2 (11:01):
I am Yeah, I'm blown away.

Speaker 1 (11:03):
I have job, guys, I actually expect to do good
at stuff like that. I go to the gym every day.
And yeah, but oh my god, that hurts.

Speaker 2 (11:11):
Doesn't that suck? Oh?

Speaker 1 (11:12):
That does suck.

Speaker 2 (11:13):
Yeah, planks and burpies are like my two most Just
if I see those on the board from my class,
I'm just like, f you, what's a burpie? A burpie
is uh, you go down to the floor, you jump
out into push up position, do a push up, jump
back and jump up.

Speaker 1 (11:29):
Whatever.

Speaker 2 (11:30):
It's dumb is what it is.

Speaker 1 (11:32):
So I I always tell my kids this. I love
the feeling of being sore. I freaking love it.

Speaker 2 (11:38):
Yeah.

Speaker 1 (11:39):
It just means I did something and I'm you know,
I'm getting stronger and better everything like that. Yeah, but
I'll be interesting. It's interested to see what's sore tomorrow from.

Speaker 2 (11:48):
Doing and laughing. Is the whooping cough gone?

Speaker 1 (11:50):
Yes? Most?

Speaker 2 (11:51):
Okay, good, he'll be all right.

Speaker 1 (11:52):
Okay, well this might be my new exercise. Then.

Speaker 2 (11:54):
Yeah, the plank is it? That's I'm impressed. You guys
held it so, Michael, you you opt at about two ten?

Speaker 4 (12:01):
Yeah, you know, I started feeling it a little bit
my lower back, and that's what started really concerning me.

Speaker 2 (12:07):
Your core wasn't engaged, Michael.

Speaker 4 (12:09):
Okay, my stomach. I felt in my stomach, but I
started to feel it at the in there in my
lower back. That's right.

Speaker 1 (12:14):
According to this article, and you just turned fifty, right, yeah,
in your fifties and you're barely fifty, you should do
thirty to sixty In forties, it should be a minute
or longer, but you easily did that. Yeah. So it
says in your twenties you should do one to two minutes.
So we're as good as not fit twenty people, twenty
year olds. Yeah, oh my god, I'm tired though. My

(12:35):
arms are burning.

Speaker 2 (12:37):
Yeeze.

Speaker 1 (12:37):
I do arm exercises every day, and this was harder
than that.

Speaker 2 (12:40):
My favorite line from my trainer Anita, if it burns,
it grows.

Speaker 1 (12:46):
Yeah. Yeah, I like that. I love that. Yes, that
is another great example of do this and push ups
or sit ups or whatever. And if you can do
that on a regular basis, yeah, maybe get a gym membership.
But if you if you're not to do this routinely
talking to myself here too. If I'm not gonna do
this stuff routinely, I'm a gym's not gonna help, right. Yeah.

Speaker 2 (13:07):
If it's that easy to do, you can drop and
do it right.

Speaker 1 (13:10):
Here, right yeah. Or buying the right gear, that's another one.
If I get the right shorts and matching shoes and
really cool shirts, you know whatever. Anyway, Okay, that's enough
of that.

Speaker 4 (13:20):
Oh and I think Marshall couldn't even do one push.

Speaker 1 (13:26):
Up our old news guy Mark for that. You weren't
here for that, Katie, obviously, so our old guy news
guy Marshall, who was actually old. His new year's resolution
was to do ten push ups, okay, by the end
of the year. And we all dropped down and did
as many push ups as we could. I think Joe
and I did like twenty or something like that. But

(13:47):
he was going to try to do ten push ups
by the end of the year. And what was the
furthest he ever made?

Speaker 4 (13:51):
I think it was two and a half.

Speaker 1 (13:52):
I mean, poor old guy, and he ended up in
the hospital. Guys he actually owned, which I don't think
the company or our boss was happy about. He pulled
something or what.

Speaker 2 (14:06):
I don't want to wonderful things about.

Speaker 1 (14:09):
Marshall's great guy, but he really overshot thinking he was
ever going to do pushups. Never close.

Speaker 2 (14:15):
It's not something you need to do, Mark, So.

Speaker 1 (14:19):
Like the early going, it would be okay, there's kind
of one, then that's it exactly.

Speaker 4 (14:30):
Well, at least we didn't make him do hurdles.

Speaker 1 (14:34):
Well, I guess that's it.
