Kudos to you bro And there's you know who's doing what you're doing he's like god damn it he's fucking intense all the time he's getting

12:00 Even today I'm reading some comments about whatever it is. gonna get on this freaking soapbox i swear to god go ahead go get on the box do a box when most guys Having that confidence knowing, yep, I could pull myself out of that burning car or over that wall or whatever. better because confidence performance work hand in hand sure so i, there's no freaking magic elixir to it, you know, and it's hard.

14:43 Nobody wants to do those goddamn things. Go to a a gym you can go to a hundred gyms if you're lucky you find one That's your J-O-B, man. That's your sport. Yeah, right. Yep. lats and traps but really what you want to do is one 100-pounder on one hand. One of the things I love to hear is a guy will say, you know? a standard deadlift once every two months but i'm doing variations of that like a shovel deadlift

17:49 work in warm up just to make sure everything's loosey-goosey the older you are the more you have to warm up man Nope. Yep. I wanna smoke these guys There's a And It's mostly And now you've got to go into respiratory pause and take these 50-yard pistol shots. I'm a big fan of all that. this was tough man that's a lot of rope that's 100 feet of fat ass hemp rope with uh two 70 pound

22:05 You know, it's good stuff. and then shoot support hand 50 yard 50 yard so i got out And then I have to, because I do this like a West Stroud type of filming, you know, West Stroud, the survival man. So I had this massive smile on my face. Once again, something that people don't work on in the gym, stabilization. someone or climb over something is that how you do yeah how do you create yeah you're talking about

24:56 them to like put those little notes on the ut i did this and my time was a minute and 30 or I know. You know, what if this person is incapacitated? Yeah, it's like, all right, that's just beefy. They're putting shoots up on interwebs with some physical activity prior to or during, which, yeah, good. I mean, it's such a great way to go about doing it, and it looks exciting and fun.

27:49 It was to that effect because he liked to shoot. He can't stand, shoot, but sitting pretty good. they come in S-P-A-R I mean, they're, like, legit. they all kid up. Man, you see these guys rapping and everything. They're so excited to get there, and they put their wraps on. And I remember you put something out, and I pinged you like a year ago. Because I've seen examples.

31:56 Yep. you don't need more than that keith weber he has this extreme kettlebell cardio uh dvd it's It's ruthless. He just brings a pair of kettlebells on the beach Because all I need to do is bait the hook. I call it performance-based training. but when you walk out that door that says exit, do for recovery do you uh fuck around with cryotherapy or saunas or anything nothing

35:15 Get a sauna and a fucking ice bath. I'm not like chugging, lugging NASCAR soda by the case. I'm a hobbyist. Every night is Saturday night, but every morning is Monday morning. I'm like, all right, let me go meet my wife. And then spice it up with salt, pepper, and garlic. So do you prep for the week? yeah um that's a good way of looking at yeah just stay right stay on the outside that's where the

38:05 I'm getting it in me. But like meal times and how many times a day. it allows me to do stuff like that and then make sure i'm hitting it every day that uh You don't need to do this shit. And then all of a sudden, my nose will start running. I'll start coughing a little bit. People around me are sick. I'm like, so Yeah right I think I'm feeling off And then all of a sudden I'll start My nose will start running

40:10 Will be gone in a day or two People say sweat it out do they experience any benefit in terms of their function? I think it depends on how, you know, what stage they're in, how long they've been there. That's one that I see a lot. We don't want these guys to get jacked up. But they're fired up to be there, and it's given them purpose. Man, it was – no, I morphed into who I am only in like the past six or seven years.

43:42 is that I had depression. I was living in the bonus room of my garage. I'd lived there for five years because I had a ex who was, delusional and, with depression. They said, bro, you need to get the fuck out of there. I said, you know what? I like to run. So you get laid off and you're like, what the fuck am I going to do now? this thing that I tell people now, you know, is that, uh, you got to keep the blaze alive.

48:35 And I discovered social media and all this stuff because I met a gal, But apparently the message is resonating. I love that. what you did that's awesome i love that i love those kind of stories I love when people get their shit together and I could relate I don't even They need one good day. Like you did That's sometimes And then I'm gonna force myself

50:59 into that dark hole they think that that defines them but it's it doesn't right it doesn't define Yeah, me too. because too many guys, going on what am i doing here i'm 50 years old The fuck is this? But you're right, too, about we are human beings and we are allowed to err. It's like, damn, man, I'm freaking nothing. So let me make the best of this time that I have on this planet

54:06 Yeah, no, I feel the same way all the time good things about really hard exercises it's very difficult to do so when you go to a very difficult Your brain is always focusing on danger. like a battery that's leaking energy like you gotta purge it you gotta purge it of that excess To be able to think about this to be this person that's living in the most amazing time ever for human beings
