Starting point is 00:03:04 Joe, go ahead, baby. I say, explain for me, what is the tax system? So, tax. We got to get Joe in there. Next one, Joe in. You can do it. I know. Listen, I know I can do it because, look, when y'all saying these workouts,
Starting point is 00:03:24 I pump, my dad was a professional bodybuilder, and he works out every morning, 4 o'clock. I want to get him. Joe, Joe. Joe. We're talking about reps. We're talking about hell of reps. I know.
Starting point is 00:03:36 I understand. Debo. I'm trying to tell you the one person that I want to go, I'm going to come. For sure. I want to come and I want to bring my dad. Bring your daddy with you. Yes. I promise you.
Starting point is 00:03:44 Because my dad, he trains like you guys. I need to get back right. I need to get back right. With the training, the pushing the failure, the 150 reps, all that. The victim weight. The victim weight. My dad, he's about all of that. So when y'all,
Starting point is 00:03:59 All of saying, I know because the training that I started lifting when I was in the seventh grade. My dad was training me and my brother. So all of this stuff that you're saying makes complete sense where it's more the mental. You know what I'm saying? Like you got to push past failure. You know what I'm saying? You think that you're done. You're not done.
Starting point is 00:04:16 You got another rep in you. You know what I'm saying? You got another four. You can push it. So that mental state is everything. So I know I stopped working out a little bit since I retired. A little bit. Debo, chill out.
Starting point is 00:04:28 chill out. I definitely, definitely, definitely need to get back in the gym. So God, what's up with the tax system? I definitely want to come out there. Just let me know a little bit about it. So every, it's tax after every set. 35 push-ups. That's the baseline. Okay. Okay. So let's say we're doing tricep pushdowns
Starting point is 00:04:44 and the count is 200. Okay. On your way to 200, you stop to take a breath like you put the weight down for a second. That's 20. That's tax 20. So on top of your pushups at the end, the 35 you initially had, now it's 55. Now it's 55. Okay. If you close your eyes, it's 20.
Starting point is 00:05:02 Jewelry, Joe. Yeah, jewelry. Oh, yeah, listen. There's no time to- Don't come in there with no jewelry on. Ain't no reason to have no jury on. Ain't no reason to have no jury on when I'm in the gym. Yeah, not.
Starting point is 00:05:15 And then whatever else we decide to tax, really, if some bullshit we don't like you, I'm going to tax it. Unnecessary conversations, not paying attention to the work, yo. Hey, man, they're taxing. No, no, for sure. I just whatever, because sometimes it's certain shit, like if I see somebody just acting like they're tired, but I can tell they really not. Yes. Moving a certain way for the camera.
Starting point is 00:05:38 I'm just taxing all that shit. Taxing anything. How fast can you tell that somebody is going to quit or not ready for the gym? Five minutes. Five minutes. First set. First set. First set.
Starting point is 00:05:50 Because when you tell somebody 200, then you'd be like, if you see. Hold on. Not that. first thing that we usually see is when the person says how many left. So say we do tricep extensions and you'll get, and you'll get 43, or let's say 40.
Starting point is 00:06:09 You know, how about I got left for 160? You can see somebody melt. I don't want to intimidate somebody out there. I'm a stickler for the kids and it's not about intimidation. Then you'll see like, oh shit, 160 a year. And don't stop, but now you got to do your pushers.
Starting point is 00:06:27 You go straight from that exercise. Yes. Push a board. Yeah. It's no walking around. Don't try to take no bathroom, break, stretch out of your own. That's what I'm saying. But people aren't ready for that because you're lactic acid.
Starting point is 00:06:40 What if your arms is something? Dude, Joe, I'm going to tell you right now, like, honestly, it's a point where. Ain't it a point of the end of the end of you know. Can you all tell. Listen, bro, I had to jump back into who and what I was that built who I am, that person. I was.
Starting point is 00:06:58 Like, I had to jump into that. Like, matter of fact, actually, we got a clip where I'm doing pull-ups, where I'm doing, I'm doing, I'm doing rows. And I grabbed this thing, bro, and I couldn't get this some bitch to move, bro, the first time. Y'all got that clip. Y'all got that clip. Let me doing them, Rose.
Starting point is 00:07:16 Yeah. Whatever to compensate. Yeah. I couldn't live this the first time, dude. And they were like, hey, I could do it. And in my mind, I'm like, I know I can do it. I just don't want to dig a shit. why don't I want to do what you know,
Starting point is 00:07:30 you know it to hell with it, I got to dig into it. So you go and you grind through it. Literally, that's just what you do. Yeah. It's no other way to get it done other than to be like, you know what, I'm done. Before I even got to that workout, dude, I had said to myself, I had already said to myself,
Starting point is 00:07:53 I'm not digging into that. I don't want to go there. I don't want to go there. I don't play all this time. I don't want to go there. And they got me into that space where I'm like, you know what, fuck it, I'm gonna go there. I watch your switch, Phillip.
Starting point is 00:08:06 I saw it when you're switched. I saw it when it happened. Hey, Joe, listen, no BS, right? I know me, I'm a, I know how to poke the bear. So, yeah, right? I know, I studied him. I know he has that switch, right? Yes.
Starting point is 00:08:22 And the thing about it is, his switch is, he's almost like Bruce Brennan in the Hulk. He got to learn to control it because he can go way off the deep end. Yeah. I don't give a fuck because I need it. I need you to be that man. Yes. He won't be the Hulk.
Starting point is 00:08:37 I'm Frank Castle. We're going to tear some shit up. Yeah. I'm right in with you. We was doing the push-ups. Yo, he was cursing. Fucked out. He looked at that man.
Starting point is 00:08:46 Hi. I said, Heidi, really, we fucked up in the head. He might want to take this point in court. But I said, Debo, take it there. I said, go back to that dark place. And I looked that. hiding his eyes. I said, what the he had a transformation. That's what
Starting point is 00:09:01 Joe was. And I'm like, yeah, but you got it, big dog? You got my chain? What I'm trying to say is Joe, he started all very positive, like, and it was an intimidate and good positive. Like, if you know
Starting point is 00:09:19 D-Bow or you study him, you'll see, okay, yes, his facial expressions are intimidating. But that's just him, right? Yeah, because he's a man of substance. He's not no push-old. So he can't prepare. He was warmed up. I said, oh, he's already warmed up.
Starting point is 00:09:35 He had to tap into that bad man. He had to tap into what we call it a kill jar, right? Take all the stuff that's happened until you put in that jar, and sometimes you've got to take the top off and let it go. And when he did that, the whole workout changed.
Starting point is 00:09:51 I said, that's who I wanted. I want the nice guy. I respect the nice guy. I need the bad man a day. Go find that man and bring him to me. Found that man doing a push-ups. He found that man doing a T-bar. He cursed us out doing the lap, the rolls. That man's for a while.
Starting point is 00:10:09 Play some more of them clips, man. I know we got some more lined up. Joe, when I say, bro, and I'm looking for him to give me something back and he wasn't giving me nothing back, and that was just pissing me off more. Like, I want to fight, bro. I want to fight this, nigga.
Starting point is 00:10:26 I'm like, I want to fight this, nigga. Give me something. Like, I love you, bro. I'm like, you motherfucker. I'm like, you motherfucker. Y'all was working. Get the volume play, man. Let it play through.
Starting point is 00:10:41 Let's go. There it is. Right there. Right there. Right here. He had to get right. He ain't allowed to have these straps on. That is.
Starting point is 00:10:51 That is. But he got a strap zone. You change, you change locations. What you could do, babe. This right here is funny, Joe. Listen, though. Hey, Hardy, you call it stretching them black, so. You call it stretching them last, they don't look like you're stretching their legs, man.
Starting point is 00:11:10 I see why they find you. Yes, sir, so, yes, sir. We get on that plane and I'm up. See, babe. He gets a assy bad when you get on that plane. For what, man. You know, man, they got a banter back and forth. That's beautiful.
Starting point is 00:11:27 Bro, it's love. Yes. Yes. Who's negative here? Yes. He's negative. Yes. He got the work there.
Starting point is 00:11:35 How he negative? Uh-huh. He switched the grip. He switched locations. He's speaking my son. He's switching locations. Um. Cram.
Starting point is 00:11:44 Cram. Brug. My body started cramping, bro. I'm trying to do a pull-up. I can't even lift my leg up because it's cramping. Like, I can't even look my leg. It's cramping in my handstring, bro. Back of my heyday when I played safety of cornered.
Starting point is 00:12:00 And he over here, long time ago. It was a long time ago. You started feeling good, you started telling all of the lies and shit. Oh, my God. I try to back pedal now. Everything going to tear. Pop, those are weasers. I'm not ashamed.
Starting point is 00:12:21 I'm not ashamed. Yeah. Where the shirt at? Pull the shirt off. I'm 400 weeks out. 400 weeks out. Yeah, for sure. Joe, that was going to go.
Starting point is 00:12:37 That was good. Is it 10 a. 5 in the morning, dog? He said 10 and 5. Oh, that's early. That's his fault. He said 10 and 5. He said 10 and 5.
Starting point is 00:12:47 He said 10 and 5. That's what he did. What he said. He let him get away with sitting down. You do that. Do as I say, not as I do. Because of that attitude. How are you are a cameraman?
Starting point is 00:12:58 Like, you did say. Hey, yo, what's hot you on, bro? Bro. So on that one, I guess I was supposed to do five. I heard 10 and 5. So I did 10. And then the other one, I guess it was supposed to be switched around. But, you know, hey, man, listen, I was, I had jumped into the bag that they wanted me to get into.
Starting point is 00:13:18 Yes. And it was, it was, it was over with them. I was, I was going to do whatever the hell we was doing. And if I sat down, then fuck the hell with it. You know what I'm like that? Hey, yeah, I'll ask you all this. So the Ashton Hall, do you all remember the Ashton Hall workout? Yeah.
Starting point is 00:13:36 He gets clowned on the internet. What do you think he learned from the workout? Did he do good out there? Yeah, he did great. Ashton came in to work. Like, a lot of people come in to find content. I've noticed that there are some people that come in. We trained like there was no cameras on.
Starting point is 00:13:55 We was just getting to the money. He ain't complained. His security guard jumping a workout. He was training with us. Yeah. Don't bring no cameraman with you because they go throw that boy in that workout now. Who would y'all say surprise y'all the most? I think Ashton's surprise is because he didn't have to live up to his persona.
Starting point is 00:14:15 Nobody don't give a fuck about- Nobody don't give a fuck about no go-yard bag. Like when he first came, because he didn't have to live. I hate to say his reputation precedes him. You think he's arrogant. You think he's soft. You think he's all this. And this is because he's a well-mannered kid with money that's successful.
Starting point is 00:14:34 So if you don't know him, he's soft. That don't get soft. But when you come in that gym, hey, bro, be you. Fuck these cameras. Yep. You got a chance to really be around two people
Starting point is 00:14:45 that didn't give a fuck about his money. We didn't ask him for his information. We don't want no sponsorship, nothing. We came to work. Like, we're going to bring the dog out of you. What happened was he got a chance to leave his persona at the door.
Starting point is 00:14:58 Fuck that Go Yard bag. We're about to get to it. And he got a chance to really earn his keep. And I said, bro, this is a difference. When you're working out by yourself, when you're working out with your personal trainer, they're going to spoon feed you. You don't give a fuck.
Starting point is 00:15:15 It's men amongst men. He wasn't deadlifting. He came, what's and started deadlifting and started going crazy. because he got an adrenaline rush because in there, energy is transferable. When I'm probably do some shit, I'm up next.
Starting point is 00:15:28 And it just keeps going. So for the first time in a long time, he was able to be himself without being judged. Nobody had their hands out. Nobody disrespected him. He got treated like everybody else.
Starting point is 00:15:40 And then once you walk in, it's not about how much money you got. It's not about that stature. You can be the fucking, I don't get to fuck who you are. You come in there, you're a regular fucking person, just like us.
Starting point is 00:15:49 And it just brought symmetry. So he shocked us. I'll say Matt Rife did good. I was going to ask you about Matt Rife. Salutes Matt Rife. I didn't expect him. Bro, he came the same thing. Came in there.
Starting point is 00:16:03 I didn't know what to expect. But he's a dog, bro. He work hard. He work hard. Some of these people might not be the, you come in and they be the strongest, but for what they can do, they max it. Yes.
Starting point is 00:16:14 Like you get their maximum output, and that's really what matters. He wasn't trolling. He wasn't training. It's certain people, that come because yeah, the publicity of the gym and they want to be a part of the gym
Starting point is 00:16:26 because they want to go viral. And for me, I can be home on my family. I could be training for myself. Real talk. That piss me off. When I got people in it, I really want to get to it
Starting point is 00:16:34 and not for the cameras, but for them, for their soul, for their body, it's a different type of bonding. Yeah. Okay, yeah. A couple times. Like, when we train with Depot,
Starting point is 00:16:47 one of the best parts of the training was the conversation after that. That's the real growth. That's the real. We're going to put in this pain together and we're going to sit down and talk about it. So when we have these kids come in,
Starting point is 00:17:00 some of them don't know what to expect. And so we said that we had a couple of kids cry while working out. I think that's a big part of y'all's involvement or transformation from the actual workout to what comes from it. And like I said, that physiological and,
Starting point is 00:17:20 and psychological aspect of it. And basically what I think you're starting to get into is more of the mental aspect and the mentorship of it. Yes. And how many guys that you see, you know, you come in there and you look at them and you say, oh, he's not going to be able to do it. But how many of those guys you look and you say,
Starting point is 00:17:37 oh, shit, he's about to be a dog. It's going to be a dog right here. And how many of those guys are coming in there and you're just like... Behind every night spent making the kids lunches, there's a lot of suspense. Will they finally eat the veggies? Will the pastos survive the first bite?
Starting point is 00:17:50 Will the lunchbox come home empty, half full, or come home at all? And will you finish episode 8 before you're done slicing the cucumbers?

The show is famously super accessible so you can easily jump into any of our 650 episodes and understand what's going on. We recommend some of our recent episodes with Ben Stiller. The definition of what is a movie has kind of changed anywhere too, right? What do you think it is now? It's images and words being spoken, captured by some sort of technology. Danny McBride.
Starting point is 00:20:51 He loves it. It's fantastic, and you make it on, you make your own. That's great. I call him Terro Reed. It's a good name. They're all named after cast members of American Pie. Yeah. I call, I don't, I never looked up if she was in this, but I call him Leachie Sobieski.
Starting point is 00:21:10 Yeah, I don't think she was an American Pie, but I still like that. Haven't looked it up. She was prominent around the same time. Yeah. Then Mary Steenbergin. Why are you guys talking to me? I'm worried. I'm worried.
Starting point is 00:21:19 Why are you talking so down to me that you think. I think I don't understand your little play game. I just really, I get it. I'm trying to set you up for success here. Listen to Hollywood Handbook on the I Heart Radio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts. This is Chelsea Handler from Dear Chelsea. Every week, the news gets worse.

If you do some in the news that don't sound good. I'm gonna play you. Join Yamanika Saunders as she breaks down the week's most problematic stories

Starting point is 00:22:12 then I should have a bunch of men. Do better or do less so I don't have to do so much. So join Yamanika each episode as she answers one question. Who's the problem? I'm Yamanika, and I'm out. Listen to you're the problem with Yamanika on the IHeart Radio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcast.
Starting point is 00:22:35 You know what? He's trying to work through something. I can see it. I can feel it. You can see it in their face. It's also a lot of times when you meet people, like even as men, we all got a little wall up. Yeah. You're not seeing past the wall.
Starting point is 00:22:49 When you suffer together, you go through pain. And now we're all dying here together. Everybody lets that wall down. So we sit down after this when we, that's why people start crying. That's why sometimes their emotions come out because it's been suppressed for so long. And they never have that to let it out. So finally they let their wall down. They're around people who care about them who could give a shit less if the cameras were on or off.
Starting point is 00:23:10 And I think it brings the, I think it brings the best out of people. And then they're able to say, you know what, bro, this has really been bothering me. And this helped me a lot with that. I'm sorry. They started to figure it out. Like Shizzy. Shizzy was a, he's a young L.A. influencer.
Starting point is 00:23:23 I don't know if I'm allowed to say that brand. But he came and the pressure on him to be perfect, the pressure on him to just do all these things. And he came in and while we film it, he's like, I know y'all wanna break me. Y'all wanna see me fall like every, yo, we're not here. Bro, we didn't make you better.
Starting point is 00:23:39 So we actually stopped. I didn't care about the filming and we hugged him. And he started crying. I said, bro, let that shit out, bro. We meant. We all, should nobody here to break you, bro. We all go through shit, but no matter what, quit. I think that was one of the most emotional things.
Starting point is 00:23:54 And when destroying came, he had a baby. I said, bro, if you quit during this fucking workout, you expect your wife to quit to quit during labor? You're going to quit through a fucking workout, but you wouldn't ask her to push your fucking baby out. What if she said, I don't want to do it? And she quit. How the fuck is I want to make you, bro?
Starting point is 00:24:13 You say things like that. It's a reality. So it's like, oh, shit. For us, it's not about breaking nobody. We just don't want to see you quit. It's just something that I've been one, like, all this shit, we got to go. because my mentality is a little bit different.
Starting point is 00:24:27 I'm a firefighter. I can't afford to quit. No. His mentality is way different. This is how he feeds his father, his mother, how he feeds himself. If he quit, he goes broke. If I quit, people die. Yes, sir.
Starting point is 00:24:40 So we can't afford to quit on no aspect. Whether it's being the influencer or fighting fires, you got to fight through that shit. Ain't no fucking say, hey, Chief, give me a water bottle, give me a gatorade in the middle of fire and a lady's on the third floor. Fuck that. I'm going to get her. And if I lose my life in the process, so fucking be it.
Starting point is 00:24:57 This is what I sign up for. And that's his same thing. He does this shit to feed his family. So if he pushes to the extreme, the sudden happens, this is what he signed up for. Everybody's not willing to risk their life for their lifestyle. They just want the lifestyle. Yes. Yes.
Starting point is 00:25:12 Yes. I think, I think that that's a big one right there, man. Everybody's not willing to risk their life for the lifestyle. Like, it's a certain aspect. that come along with everything that you do. Assumps and the risk is what it's called. And that, a lot is sacrifice. Rather, it's, you know, time, money, emotional, blood, sweat, tears, whatever it is. And I don't think a lot of people understand that concept. I know you guys got the clothing brand. I see it back there, till the death, man. How long have y'all been doing that?
Starting point is 00:25:48 What, what, how y'all come up with that? That's the TD. Yeah, that's been since 2021 too. Like around the same time where I started filming It was just It was something I always
Starting point is 00:26:03 Like my father always used to say to me Like anytime I was going through anything He's like well it's going to be like that So you die He's always say that Like I'll complain about something going on in school He's like if it's bad now It's going to be like that to you die
Starting point is 00:26:14 So from like To the death I'm just going to go do this to you know what I'm saying Whatever happens I'm going to deal with it anyways Until I die That was the whole thing And then that shit quickly came up in the gym
Starting point is 00:26:25 Because every set was like, yo, so you die To the death, bro. To the death, you know? And then it transferred over And we made it a brand, a community, a bunch of like-minded people. I like to look at it less like a clothing brand and more like a community.
Starting point is 00:26:39 It's everybody that, everybody that I've never seen some, like, I don't even want people wearing it if they're not going to live that type of lifestyle. No question. No question. Well, at least they invested in themselves to the point where they're getting in the gym every day. And like whether you're trying to be a body

Starting point is 00:28:16 Yes, I'm going to go till I can't. I'm going on a little. Yo, let me ask you a question. We're stopping you from training. Nothing. Thank you. I'm no answer to the question. Myself, myself, myself, myself.
Starting point is 00:28:31 Okay, I'm nothing. I can start back training. This is real talk, right? Speak about sacrifice. God has blessed you to play in a national football league. Something that I dreamed I could have went to, right? And I was just legit in high school and college, but I kind of went on vacations to other colleges.

Starting point is 00:29:15 what I'm not going to do is, what I'm not going to lie to, because we got a grown man, grown man conversations, and I know I got a gym downstairs that I know I can do, I'm making an excuse. It's nothing but excuses.

Starting point is 00:30:20 that ain't victim weight. I believe in you, Joe. I believe in you. Nah, bro. I hear they be saying the same shit to me. I don't like, yo, there's a clip. Maybe you can pull the clip up. But Joe, I was at the fanatics fest in New York
Starting point is 00:30:35 minding my motherfucking business, okay? Yes. And moving peacefully. I turned my head around the corner. I see people looking at me with this face. The face, you know the face? Yes. Yes.
Starting point is 00:30:46 I was nervous. I was like, oh, shit, I was about to turn back. I'm gonna holler at you. But he caught me. He locked my eye. I had to go up to him. And he started pressing me, bro. I did not press him.
Starting point is 00:30:58 I didn't even go up to him. He walked in front of the people you live. Debo, you were sizing them up. I was right next to you. I might have took a couple steps. I'm just saying, I didn't press him. I was asking questions. You said, if you weren't getting that Chuck's message?
Starting point is 00:31:16 I don't got to. Did I ask a question? I didn't, I didn't, I asked the question. right, aunt? Come on, uncle, what? It was, you know what? I cannot tell a lie. It was a, it was a, I'm starting to sweat because I'm nervous too. The question was asked
Starting point is 00:31:32 Sir Debo, but it was a little of the aggressive like, hold on, hold on, hold on, hold on, hold on, hold on. I was just trying to find out. I was just trying to find out. I was going other way. I said, I said, um, I said, hey, howdy, you ain't get my text message.
Starting point is 00:31:52 You did not say it like that, you lying. Wow. I have the video. I said, put a clip. You text me and catch you back. Can y'all pull the clip he's talking about? But I'm just telling y'all, I said, what I said was, hey, you ain't get my text message. I don't know exactly the tone in which I said it because my memory is bad.
Starting point is 00:32:13 I had concussions. Oh, if you're asking that, the tone was messed. The tone was fucked up, Debo. The tone was aggressive. Had to be. Bully, G-bo. It could have been.
Starting point is 00:32:24 Probably. Hey, bruh. I see it now. A thousand percent. Listen, it might have been aggressive. Because I've been told that sometimes when I say things, it sounds aggressive. I'm not. I might have been trying to make that one aggressive.
Starting point is 00:32:41 I'm not going to lie. You're a thousand percent. When I get back into it and I think about it because I was feeling some type of way and I just seen him and he laughing and joking, he's slapping hands and all that shit with everybody and all that. And you just go make like I ain't texting. Like, nigga, you ain't seen my text? That's how he said it. That's how he said it, Joe.
Starting point is 00:33:00 I know that. And Joe, it didn't stop there. So now we're in the bar. We feel like little mini celebrities because we ain't got no money, Joe. Everybody they got on jewelry, they got alcohol. I'm asking for complimentary glasses of water. And we're trying a lot of people like this.
Starting point is 00:33:18 And I'm like, yo, he followed us in the bar. Bro, they're lying, brother. I said, you got a water with some ice. Yes. Joe, you was there. Joe, we was walking through, man. And I just happened to stop by that. Happened to do and see him again.

And I, you know, I'm older. I don't know, maybe because I wasn't drinking or maybe because I'm just not into that no more.
Starting point is 00:34:36 You're just standing around. Yeah, that's how it was. Y'all getting old, that's what it is. Yeah, it was a lot of moving parts. That's the fact. That was for me. Ah, that's the answer, okay? Yeah.

Starting point is 00:43:39 I already did a whole hour of cardio and you want to tell me I can't drink. Man, kiss my black ass. I'm going to get me something to drink. No, but you know what it is? You know what it is, especially even with the influencers, like you come in there,
Starting point is 00:43:54 what really happens is you find out about yourself, bro. No. You really learn about yourself because everybody's, everybody coming like, oh, yeah, it's just a workout. I could do this or. No, it's not, bro. Everybody's on some, everybody. I knew looking at it, it wasn't just a workout.
Starting point is 00:44:10 Yeah. I said, my kids, I said, bro, I'm not, dude, no, I'm not, bro. I ain't got that in me no more. I don't even, I don't even desire it like that, son. I don't lost, I'm telling them I don't lost every competitive bone in my body. I ain't got nothing. I'm telling them everything. Dad ain't going there.
Starting point is 00:44:28 Bro, I'm telling you this, Debo, everything with them knows. Listen, man, I'm fucking around and pull that shit out. And I'm like, God damn it, now I got to go here. What y'all doing the workouts with the people? That makes every difference. Because you can tell somebody what to do. You know what I'm saying? But you're showing me like, man, I'm hitting these two.
Starting point is 00:44:45 I got to hunt it. So you got to go hit the hunt. So having y'all do the workouts. There's 17-year-old kids in there doing it too. People will come in and the 17, our 17-year-old kids will drop them off. Drop them smooth. Facts. Right off the jump.
Starting point is 00:44:59 Right off the jump. They'll jump it and they can't understand it. And I'm like, yo, he's 17, he's 18, but they're, they're condition. Their condition, they've been doing this. And our conditioning for them was, okay, I want you all to do something besides this. So now they go to football camp for Montclair State August 11th. We got two of them going on my nephew, AJ. And that's the type of stuff we do.
Starting point is 00:45:24 It's about you grown with us so we can help you to grow. Go. Whatever you. Like, we support it. If it's positive, we're going to support it. Because it's, this is how I look at life and how do you tell you? When you leave, you can't take none of this shit with you. So certain things, you got to give away.
Starting point is 00:45:43 And that's knowledge, motivation, and sometimes time. Because you can't. You want to be remembered by good deeds. and you want to be represented by the good deeds that you did, people keep it going. So that's what we try to give back to the community all the time. And we try to get these learning lessons, these life lessons. Like, once you leave here with us,
Starting point is 00:46:03 take that with you for the rest of your life. So that's your start. That's what we try to do. Hey, who and what inspired you? Me? Yeah. I understand. I grew up like in the 80s, so I'm older.
Starting point is 00:46:15 So all we have was Rambo movies. What the fuck is so funny? My bad, fellas. He's going to give fun. Before the eyeballs came out. No, but it was a little bit different. Like, all we had was rock. Go ahead, bro.
Starting point is 00:46:34 Tell the story. Why are you sliding away? Somebody. So, like, it was, everything was about being in shape. And, of course, I played sports. And for me, it was just, it was something that was different. I never did drugs. I never, I never, I never.
Starting point is 00:46:51 I'd never, I hardly ever drank, never, I just wanted to always be in shape. So you got a figure like Rambo and all. Everybody was in, had a nice physique. And then I started going to Diamond Gym when I was 16. And I felt like real life superhero was like, oh shit. Yeah. Just even when I was in the, you know, doing good and doing bad, I always stayed in the gym. And then I thought as I got older, it was therapy for me mentally.
Starting point is 00:47:18 Hell. Like, there's certain things, if you tell your girl, she'll, use it against you. You tell you home, boy, he'll think you weak. You can't tell mommy because she's going to tell daddy. Like, so certain things as a man, you got to deal with internally. And I went to the gym, and I used to always say, okay, I'm going to turn my pain into power. Whatever I go through mentally and physically, I'm going to take that out on myself in the gym and I'm going to make me a better person. So that's, that's just, it's just, my inspiration was like looking at Ronnie Coleman, uh, Dorian Yates, of course,
Starting point is 00:47:49 C.T. Fletcher. And honestly speaking, And this is not no bullshit because Debo is on the live. But watching him transition from football to getting in shape at his age because we're kind of the same age, he's still playing with 500. He's still doing them Debo thing,
Starting point is 00:48:10 listening to McAvelli, throwing the weights. I find inspiration in that. And I'm like, yo, if he can do what I can do. Because you never know who's paying attention to you for the good, not just for the bad, Oh, he got a bad attitude. He was getting fine. Fuck all.
Starting point is 00:48:24 He's an athlete. You understand? Y'all mad because y'all can't control him. Man's in shape so you want to piss test him every week. I pay attention to everything because you control fear. And this man is invested in his body, but he made his body a weapon. Just because he made his body a weapon does not mean he's a threat. Yes, sir.
Starting point is 00:48:44 That's my biggest thing. And I watched him put the work in. And then to go to the gym with him, he's training. And four o'clock at I said, Heidi, four o'clock in the morning. Mm-hmm. At least 30 or something like that. So for me, I'll just say
Starting point is 00:49:00 like my biggest inspiration was to be healthy. Because in my hood, everybody's high. It's a lot of junk. It's a lot of, you know, it's a lot of bad stuff going on. So that was my positive away from the hood. I got you.
Starting point is 00:49:14 I always wanted to be different from everybody. Good stuff. What about you, Haddy? Uh, my inspiration. Yeah. Honestly, bro, was always just, like, my whole thing was creating a better situation for my family. It was just bad.
Starting point is 00:49:31 So my thing was I was trying to play. I was playing soccer. That was my whole thing. I was going to go pro. Since a young kid, I'm training. Like, I was, I would go to training in the morning. And then midday, I had to practice with the team. And then at night I was going to the gym by myself.
Starting point is 00:49:45 I did that my whole life. Yeah. I told my MCO. And then, bro, all, I knew, the reason why I got so heavy in the gym was because all I knew was like my physical output, like I related physical output, how hard I work can get me here. So when I lost that and I wasn't playing anymore, I was like, all I knew how to do was physical. I didn't know how to, like, I'm trying to get to it and make this better for my family, but all I know was physical.
Starting point is 00:50:11 All I know is like that type of work. So I just put all that into the gym, bro. And like, That's why when he told y'all the story, like he called me pretty boy, and then I asked him to work out. No, he called me pretty pretty. To the point where I'm really going through it because of my knee I was depressed. I wanted to fuck him up. That's why I said, yo, I hit up my man. I said, yo, tell the old man, keep calling me pretty boy.
Starting point is 00:50:35 I want to work out. We're going to see how pretty I am. That's a fact. That's a fact. That's the truth. Because he was doing it every day on my bad days. You know you're having a bad day? Yeah.
Starting point is 00:50:46 He's still calling you Pretty Boy. I'm like, no, no, no, no, not just Pretty Boy. Rib shot. Like, pretty boy, and he walked away, and you're getting like, like, now I feel like my manhood being tested, you know? What's up? You want, because it's true. Hey, oh, how are you coming back from that injury, man? How you told me he did that to you?
Starting point is 00:51:03 Yes, it's all right. I'm going to answer both parts. Yes, it's true. I did it. I did it. I hit him a lot. A lot. And now, yeah, I actually, I act.
Starting point is 00:51:13 The funny thing is I told my, my pet muscle. in 2003 I marked their state benching. And then I kind of re-agravated the tendon. Then the tendon popped off. So I met a good doctor at Summer Health, Dr. Vasquez, and he said, I could repair it. I'm like, bro, it's been tore since 2003. So it was 20 years of scar tissue. And it had shriveled up.
Starting point is 00:51:34 So they repaired it. They brought it over. So I'm on my ninth week post-stop. I've been out to sling for two weeks. I'm slowly getting back in the gym. I can't go full throttle because they said it's like six months. But I explain to the doctor, I need it. I cannot, even if I go to the gym to walk on a treadmill or go to the gym and watch them train, I need it.
Starting point is 00:51:54 It's a part of who I am. And I don't think people understand. And I know as athletes, when you get hurt, watching people want to field, play, and then you guys, the thing about you guys getting hurt, money's involved, your career is involved, your stats is involved. But it's also a mental toll on getting hurt. And people don't see that aspect of me. I can't be in the gym. I'm losing weight. losing strength. It just played with me
Starting point is 00:52:18 mentally until I got my rap around it. And honestly speaking, I had to, you said something to us when we was in, um, we was in Pittsburgh and also when I spoke to you when we was texting, DM and be patient.
Starting point is 00:52:32 So I had to look myself in a face and I'm like, damn, if I'm telling all these kids to be patient, I got to be patient. So I was patient for six weeks. God, or willingly, I was able to get out the sling. So now I'm starting to rehab back and get back to it.
Starting point is 00:52:46 But just doing something little means a lot to me because I'm staying at. So now it's going to be the challenge of being better than where I was at. That's a buildup. That's a process. Everything take time. Anything worth having takes time. And it takes a little bit of pain and then perseverance to get to it. It's different for us.
Starting point is 00:53:09 You know, most people, bro, most people, honestly, they get like FOMO. They feel like they're missing out when people are going out to the club here. or going there, they feel like I want to be there. Like, he really, like, and I'm the same way, you get phoma when I see people at the gym and I'm not there. I'm like, fuck. Yo, they in there working and I'm over here. Like, I'm on my county.
Starting point is 00:53:26 I get up and I'm going. Uncle used to go live every day at Diamond. Sometimes he wouldn't even call me. I see him go live. I'm like, I'm going to be there. I get up, put my shoes on, and I go. I'm saying, and that's my thing. It's a different circle that you surround yourself with
Starting point is 00:53:41 and people that you're around them. Yes. It could be that. It could be left field. I want to go to the club, I want to go here. I want to go to do everybody out. Or it could be this.
Starting point is 00:53:49 You know what I'm saying? You choose what you kind of fall in love with. Yeah, definitely. The company you keep will speak to the person that you are and the things that you do and what it is that you want to do, aspire to be and everything else.
