We should talk about that. It was like this weird world. Yeah, because Justin's never been in. I, exactly, I don't even know what you're, I should be asking the two of you. What did you guys think? That was your first real experience in my, it was like, bodybuilding, moncrossefit.

My world of douchebaggery. What'd you guys think about that? It's the second time I've been to an Expo. I went to the Arnold Classic years ago. Well 1965 that is a calutoma nowadays like it's a little bit different I want you to think well, what's it like now compared? It's a lot of supplements. Yeah, it's just a lot of supplements. I'd say 90 FYI sour was eating all of them Yeah, 90 was jacked. Listen, I cannot turn down. No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no-home companies to be like, sir, you've been back to our booth three times already. You ate at Karr Barz, bro. I'm like that kid at Costco, lunchtime, when they start giving out free food.

No, you know what it is? They give out a shitload of free samples. I don't use any of them, or maybe one or two, just because sometimes I get squirrely. But I like to take them because then I dissect the ingredients, I read them and see what's in them and shit. And here's what I found. Here's what I found.

They all are super low-send them. Besides that. So nine and a 10 of the samples you're gonna get at a expo is a pre-workout. Yeah, that's really hot right now. Well, it's because what supplement can you take once and feel, a pre-workout point. Because it's full of a shit load of stimulants.

This fucking wax. Well, I mean, it's all, it's the, Hulk juice. We talked about this way back when we first started mine pump. It's like, you know, top three, I think we did what, bodybuilding.com, and look at the top 10, supplement sold, and three of the 10 were pre-workouts.

Bro, I'm looking at the ingredients, so check this out. So before I work out, I'll have between two to 300 milligrams of caffeine, max, max, 300 max. That's cute how they repackaged it as pre workout, even though it's always just been like ripped for. Or, you know, like we talked about all those drinks and everything that you're doing.

I'm reading the back of these things, right? And not only do they all have 300 to 375 milligrams of caffeine by itself, they also have all kinds of other stimulants included, like Yo-Himbee and Sinifran and Hortonine and all these other things that they throw in there. I'm looking at these things, I'm like, oh my, someones, they're pushing the limit.

Like this is, they're strong or now and they were a couple of years ago. Oh, that's, that's how it always goes right. That's the name of the game is, is each, each company is trying to, you know, step up who can put more shit that, that affects your central nervous system. Right. And it's like, you know, if you're, if your feet aren't fucking teething, and you can't, if you can't fill your heart pounding out of your chest and your eyeballs like fucking

wide open, like, do you, can we start selling like crystals? You know, be like, it'd pre-work out, bro. Let's smoke it. Yeah. Yeah, it's a crystal. I guarantee you'll lose weight if you smoke our crystal. Our Arctic blue. And by the way, who hands all these samples out?

Some hot chick, some chick with the least amount of clothes. Tiny ass, some fur. Love that. Love that. Half naked girls. Now, I'll say this, half of them look like they work out. The other half look like they- I used to do lots of coke.

They look like they can do- Are you gonna get the dude that looks like the caveman on that right on the boardwalk, you know? Oh, dude, that was a freakishly weird looking dude. Oh, that one that's gone. Yeah, he had that lower part of his face that was like coming out of the bridge. Huge ass traps and lots of growth hormones

Who's like? You know try my sex hormone Like whoa bro. Did you did you see the there were a couple of pro bodybuilders? You ever seen a pro bodybuilder in person Justin is there your first time? No, I've been the show before where I've seen pro bodybuilder, but you know, they were like at the you know They didn't have their shirt off or nothing. They just look they look freaky. It was like it It was like a somebody put clay on top of a guy and just stacked it You know fill heath's beard. Fill heath has biceps on his forearms. Yeah, I was pointing that out to Doug

I know I know I look like he had bought yeah, he was like flexing it's weird It really looked weird. What was it looked disproportionate like I don't know I guess symmetry is what they're going for but it's a lot of crazy muscle. Yeah, yeah, what was what was you each year I mean guys what was your favorite thing about the expo and what did you find probably the stupidest thing that you came across each I would hands down I'm gonna go ahead and say that the XFL of CrossFit. Oh, yes, the grid. What was the fault? The grid.

That was you fucking idiots. Can I just say that 100% you guys are idiots. It is just, it could not be a better analogy, right? The XFL. Adam came over, I'll give you credit all day. Dude, it was perfect. We're sitting there, we could not be a better analogy, right? The XFL. Adam came over. I'll give you credit all day. Dude, it was perfect. We're sitting there. We had it.

We could not help containers. So we had to go in and watch. We had to go in and watch this. And it was the Brooklyn Brawlers versus the, I can't even remember what the other name was. Oh, it was Bill. But it was the Toronto Raptor. Yeah, it was another.

That's a real team. Yeah, it's a real team. It was another really funny name like that. And you know, watching it, it was another. That's a real team. Yeah, it's a real team. It was another really funny name like that at And you know watching watching these guys didn't be they had a coach and everything and they get in a huddle and stuff like that They just like a normal lifting weights. I'd it was so great And they were carrying the weight for them and they're doing these front squats and oh my god Now there was one chick. There was one chick that that one black chick. Oh, she was a beast. Beast. He was awesome. Bro. She outperformed all the men. Oh, I was like, wow, but those two girls that last but they won that race and they like headbutt each other afterwards. They did

Yeah, talk shit to the crowd. I was like, whoa, dude. This is and it just their outfits and their jerseys look remind me just like XFL dude. It was just exact and the way the announced it the announcer was talking it just reminded me when I watch XF And I remember the first time I turn X fell on him like this shit You know I guess like the American gladiators remember that yeah But you know what I had that same feel, but I felt like a American, American gladiator, at least I don't know about you guys. I watched American gladiators.

I love the greatest. I love the American gladiators. Especially the gauntlet, but they're all trying to get passed with the best of American gladiators. There was a part of American gladiators where I felt like they kind of laughed at themselves, though, it wasn't like super serious.

It wasn't like a, there are characters still. Yeah, and they, exactly, there were characters they weren't trying to say, these are the best athletes in the world where grid and crossfit is kind of like, you know, that's their claim, that's their claim to fame of being, character still. Yeah, and they exactly there are characters they weren't trying to say these are the best athletes in the world where Grid and CrossFit is kind of like you know, that's their claim. That's their claim to fame of being you know, oh best athletes Oh, you know, yeah, let's stack a CrossFit athlete against NFL or NBA player. Yeah, exactly

And that's and that's that's their that's their way of looking at it So I think this in the world it's a little bit a little bit different than American gladiators was funny They're wearing they'll you know American get-ups that they were wearing and they had the funny names come watch us to shoot tennis balls at each other You know they weren't like real events, you know saying where this is more like watch like horrible sloppy form It's quickly as you can get it No, I was just remember when they were slapping over the box. Yes, that's like nails on a chalk It's like like a car crash.

Like I just was like, ah! Yeah. No, they were doing the burpee over the box with the dumbbells. And then slapping their stomach around. And they were twisting while they're on the box. I could just see Mineska's, you know, just tears and grinds while I was watching.

And it's just stupidity at its finest. Come watch and see who works out the best. Because it's a sport. cuz we told you it is Okay, so I think unanimously it sounds like we agree that I was the dumbest so let's let's get positive Yeah, what was what was fun, so my favorite thing was The free the free foody chemical drinks everybody was handing out. I just kept trying different ones. I was like, this tastes way too much like cotton candy. Well, I'll tell you one conversation we had. That was kind of cool. Was the conversation

we had the lady with NASM. It was neat. We had a chance to talk to somebody who actually knew what they were talking about and was just rare. And was talking about their future certifications that they have coming, which I think is rare. And I was talking about their future certifications that they have coming, which I think is a lot of things that we wanna touch and help people out with. Oh, they said that NASM's gonna come out with the course to teach trainers about the business of being a trainer.

I was like, that's so smart, which is a great idea. And online training, and you really had to optimize all these options, because in the fitness industry, there's just so many directions you can go on its continuum. There's really nobody that's teaching like proper channels for that. I will say this, good luck to NSM.

They're a very technical, look, if you want to learn like exercise physiology, technique correctional exercise, I mean, they're one of the best. They have the standard for that. If you want to learn how to build your business as a trainer, then your best bet is to go to people who've already done so.

Right. Because I've seen business courses taught by people who've never been at themselves and they suck. If you want to learn how to run a business as a personal trainer, go to a trainer that's successful, and that's where you're going to learn. Well, I think we all agreed, right? We've found that we have a pretty large following of personal trainers or inspiring trainers

that are trying to become, or trying to be inspiring. Yes, inspiring trainers. So I definitely think that- I'm not being addicted. You don't give me that face. No, no, I, bro, I'm low carb right now. You're gonna, you're catching up. I'm trying to help you.

Absolutely, I'm, that nothing but love, bro. I know you are so, I know you, nothing but love for sure. Right now, I can barely, I just told you guys earlier I have a hard time functioning picking my fucking keys up. So like that putting, putting vows and words and verbs together right now could be really tough for me. So I'm going to need help every now and then.

But you know, I think we all agreed that we're definitely to get head that direction where we start helping a little bit more and talking more about the business that we really don't talk. We talk a lot of the science, talk a lot about the fitness things like that, but hopefully start diving more into how to become successful in the fitness industry because it's not. I think people, we're starting to get questions for that and I think that definitely we have a lot of experience with the life. Well, we're probably the only group that will brainstorm on air, which is kind of what

we're doing, but this is what I'm thinking like there's a couple ways we could do this we could a put it together Like we did with the workout programs and stuff or I think alive I think a live webinar It's probably gonna be more useful. Oh, I think both I think you have a live webinar and then you give some sort of reading Which of course I think a retreat right? Oh, look at you guys this guy's what's going vacation I see we all meeting Hawaii and I want to hang out with you. Of course, I think I'll retreat, right? Look at you guys, this guy's supposed to go on vacation. I still will meet in Hawaii. And I wanna hang out with you guys. So, you know, you guys can get every little,

oh, the webinar, I wanna hang out, you know, surf and he's good, and then teach you some shit. Next, mind pump, my mind pump retreat to you, why not Mexico? Tejana. So that what, okay, we have, the NSM thing was cool. You guys find anything else that you actually really light you took away.

You know, I thought was not the vibrating plate. That was weird. That goes up there was really that was up there with top top five dumbass for sure. Great. Great is number one. The vibrating plate. That's the one that I was standing on that you guys were laughing. Yeah, the vibrating.

Bro, I was getting a boner. I had to get off that thing. It shakes you so hard. I was like, wait a minute. Bro, the wind blows and I was getting a boner. I had to get off that thing. It shakes you so hard. I was like, wait a minute. Bro, the wind blows and you get a boner. It does not take much for you. Well, let me tell you about that vibrating play bro. Had nothing to do with the BodyBilling.com girl that was half naked, that was looking

across from you. No, no, it was operated. It looked like a Japanese machine or something, right? Wasn't it like a, I mean, I like some of the apparel companies there, you know, there's some. Give a shout out to a, yeah, and our boy that was there that was just on a podcast. Yeah, a brand and he had a... You know, they have some great gear.

I got some gear. Was it called Rise Above? Uh-huh, Rise Above. Yeah, you're wearing one right now. His gear is way sick and I see them. It's very metal! A lot of people rocking it, so. Super cool.

Very, very cool gear. And talk about, you know, Sunday you had met... Oh, yeah. So that was, that was probably my highlight and I think the coolest thing was, um, figment of your imagination. Is that his Instagram? Yeah. figment of your imagination. He did a portrait of you. He did. He did a sketch of me with a pencil and it was sick. Yeah, it was beyond sick. It was, uh, very, very detailed. And it was crazy because when he first was beyond sick. It was very, very detailed. And it was crazy because when he first it,

now let me back up a little bit. I get people that send me a lot of things, whether it be via inbox, email, email, email, email, whatever it is. Cockpacks, yeah. I get a lot of random stuff. And I totally love it, support it. I love it.

I appreciate everything that I receive and getting everything out of that for everybody. Nothing but love. But you know, sometimes I have to admit admit I'm a little embarrassed to share it or show it off or what that because it's just maybe It's not something that I would would normally show off or or you know Have you know or put out there right this guy and I'm he's not the first person to draw me So that's where I'm getting out with this and you know it's people draw me and it's like, oh yeah, it's kind of like how you guys probably feel when you guys just daughter, your son draws a card to you.

Like a nice little card to you. Yeah, you're like, I mean, it's like nothing but love. No, it's nothing but love. You could get up on the fridge. Yeah, because they tried it so that way. It's like when Napoleon Dynamite draws a picture. Yeah, for that curve. But you're not gonna go around like hanging it up in your house

or anything like that crazy, like that are getting framed, right? You know, it's just like, oh, you know, you, it's you, it's kind of like that, right? Well, so he, he tags me the very first time when he starts to do the sketch and it, you know, it's like this close-up image and it's the very beginning. And so I'm kind of, I'm like, oh, cool, thanks bro. And you know, I'm like, that's normal.

That's it, that's it, that's normal. I respond to it. And then the second image, I'm like, oh, okay, it's kind of, it kind of looks like me. got to come together. Yeah. And at that moment, I decided to finally scroll through this page because before that, I just, you know, I don't have time to really go through everyone's page or 10. They send me something. This time, they're like, oh, yeah, then I started going through all of a sudden. I was like, oh, shit, this dude is legit. He's got some, he's done some fucking cool last drawings of some people

that I look spot on. And I see what he's doing. He's a real savvy dude. Oh, you know, like he definitely is a fan of the physique and like the fitness industry and is making moves, you know, in that direction by like highlighting all these. So offline, I'll share something with you guys that he told me. I'll give the listeners a little teaser because I don't know what he, I don't know how much of this he was in

confidentiality with me or not, but I do know, I do know he's made a post. I will repeat what he's posted, but I won't go into too much detail. He's working on a project with Randall, a live fit. Okay. And he's going to draw something really sick and he told me like what it's going to be and it's pretty dope. And you're like awesome. Yeah, very cool project that he's working on by partnering up them. Anyway, he brings me this picture and I meet him there. I literally go down there on Sunday just to meet him because I'm like, bro, you did that

you're coming down here like I'll make my way over there to come see you. Met up with him. Super humble, super nice. He hands me the picture and I look at him and I say, how much for a dude? And he says nothing, Rolla, he says, I don't, I didn't do this to make money off of you. I'm like, Rolla, I super, I totally appreciate that. I think that's so cool, but I don't feel right

not paying you. So how much do you want for the picture? And he's like, he's like, honestly, I don't want anything for the picture. I didn't do it for that, you know? He says, he says, I love this show. Which is the like the best attitude. Oh, absolutely.

And because anybody listening, like that's how you start a business. It is, it is. And because of that, I'm the type of person that won't allow that to happen. So, you know, he tells me that and I'm just, you know, blown away by that, and plus it's framed, it's matted. I mean, I don't know how much that costs a lot, but it's nice.

You know, my buddy, those portraits and so on, they're not cheap to have a nice frame with that and matted. And yet he's insisting on me not paying him. So, and then I asked him, you know, what is everybody else pay you? And he's like, oh, no, no one's ever paid me. They don't pay me. I'm not doing it for the money.

Like I said, this is my passion. I'm trying to build this thing. And I'm like, bro, it's so cool. But then I pulled out my wallet and gave him, there was no way I was not giving him money. You know, I gave him money. And probably a lot more than what he expected because of the simple fact that he didn't ask for money.

And that's the type that goes a long way. Absolutely, you know, it goes a way, long way for me. Like I told a couple of people, they're like, what, you give him that much money and he was gonna give it to you free of him? Yeah, but that's because he didn't ask for money. That's why. He's an entrepreneur, he did good work.

Exactly. And I would have had a great attitude. Here you go. Yeah, absolutely. Like you're supporting him, he's supporting you. It's like, yeah, that's not a shit. 100% so that was definitely the highlight of my weekend. That was pretty cool.

May my day, very humbling for sure. Very cool, rad. You guys, you want to get on the question? And answer, answer, shit. Q&A, all right? First, you guys have questions. First question from Care, oh, K E Reynolds, 26. The question is, who are favorite athletes The first question from K-E Reynolds 26.

The question is, who are favorite athletes of the past or present is that we'd wanna work out with? So if we could pick an athlete from the past or the present to have a workout with, who would it be? I'll go first. Do it. Tell me, I'm going, you guys are gonna laugh maybe. Who is it? Enter the dragon oh Chuck Norris

Obviously he wasn't making the noises. But yeah, I know that was fucking great right there. But yeah, Chuck Norris, bro. How would you think you'd be in a workout? Uh, I feel like I don't know. I'd probably just be staring at what was this one liner. He always had a one liner. He used to say on his show. Do you remember what it was?

He had a one liner. He used to say I can't remember what it was shit. I'm on on Walker. Yes, I love Walkers. I used to watch that shit. It shows particularly. That was great. It was great.

How can you not know who Bill Kazmire is? How? He was one of the, he was one of the first, here I got a picture of him right here. He was one of the first world strongest men back. Oh, okay cool. And this. I thought you were talking about a bodybuilding.

Okay, I'll do. I'll have to slap you. I remember who he was. Okay, I remember now, so. All right. Take it back. Take it back. So this dude, this dude won world strongest man,

way back in I think in the 70s. But anyway, I saw this guy at the Arnold Classic about maybe 12 years ago. So he was at this point, he must have been in his 50s, and he freaking rolls up a frying pan with his hands. He's like doing this. He rolls, he takes a fucking frying pan. A real frying pan, he's in his 50s.

That can't be possible. No, he rolls it on. He rolls it on. He's a do that. Yeah, right. He's like his fifties, dude That's the same rules that shit up and I shook his hand and it was like I grabbed a fractured every bone Bro, I it was like grabbing a brick and shaking a brick. Oh my hold up. I do that. That's like straight up frying pan He rolled it up like a piece of paper. Yeah, and then he handed it and we're passing around like are you kidding? I couldn't even win the thing That is crazy So I would want to work out with that guy just for the sheer amusement like I'd be like I feel bad for his cock bro I what?

Ouch. Oh, yeah It must stay with me stay with me. I must be strong. I would just I would be just like throw shit I'm like can you lift this here do that? You're trying to do that. Hey, can you bring the king of all party tricks? Throw him something You guys you got trash compactor. Have you ever met like a strong like a strong man competitor in person like a real high level one? No, I want to though. Not that level. It's a whole nother fucking world like they're first of all they're all big They're like old like giant Viking giants and and there was another guy there that was at that convention and there were these huge smooth They look like almost like cannonballs except there were a little more narrow

But they were kind of smooth and they were heavy right and if you could pick it up off the floor Which so you have to grab around it with your hands, but you can't make a full grip right because it's kind of fat All you had to do was lift it off the floor. There was chalk and everything. And there was a line of people lined up to do this. Like impossible, huh? If you lift it off the floor, they gave you like a t-shirt

and like a hundred dollar gift certificate for like supplements at GNC. It's like a good price, right? Yeah. There's a line of body, but everybody's fit, right? And so nobody can lift it. I'm like, I'm gonna fucking lift it.

Say, I think I have pretty strong. I couldn't even, I couldn't even move that piece of shit off the floor. Oh, no Meanwhile, there's a strong man that's manning the booth who is legit a giant like legit Like if you looked at the guy if you were five years old and you saw him walking down the street You would start crying because you'd be like mom. There's a giant a real giant He's gonna eat me. He would he would just to make everybody feel like shit He'd lift this thing up and like, oh, like carry around like pass it to the other hand.

Easy for me, easy. And his hands were massive and so strong man are just crazy. So I would love to work out with like a top strong man just to. Why, so they can like destroy you? It just be like I said, I just throw shit at him. I'd be like, uh, can you grab that? Can you get that machine and push it over? You do the warm up forum them and then they just like

you do with their pinky. Yeah, okay, while I squat, fight 400 pounds, I want you to squat me with the barbell at the same time, ready? Nice. You know, I should like that. What about you? What about your answer?

I like it. Let me guess, Adam's gonna say Cory Everson, Miss Olympia. No, actually, I'm probably, I'm sure she's, is this a girl who asked this question, Carrie, is that Carrie, her name? I think it's a guy. I don't know. Well whoever whoever it is probably I like my answer because I and I've said this before on this podcast. I don't fucking want to work out with anybody I don't care if you're famous. I don't care. I don't I don't want to you say oh my god

But I'm the game you gotta say well here's what I will play in this game is that who I will tell you a famous person that I would that would be an Athlete in the past or with that that I would like to hang out with. Yeah, I would look at Charles Barkley. Yeah, Charles Barkley has to and I my buddy actually Cattied for him on like one of those celebrity golf. I love him because he has no filter. Yeah, my buddy said that he gets to meet all kinds of celebrities, right? On this caddy thing it was really cool. He got to go up and do this up in Oregon And he you know, he told me about so I had Emmett Smith in my time was my one of my favorite players He told me about Emmett Smith Emmett's been a very cool guy and all bunch of these guys He's going through and tell me he's like, but he's all hands down at him He goes and I and before he even told me this I was already a big a big fan

Of Charles Barkley and he big fan of Charles Barkley. And he's like, dude, Charles Barkley is every bit as cool as he is on TV in person. He's even more. He's down to earth. He's cool. He treats everybody. Hello. And he's just funny and sarcastic. And he's like, I love when you talk shit and just get some stuff. Oh, and he says he's just like that. He just taught, he, he'll just meet, he said he'll meet you for like five minutes.

And he'll be talking shit to you right away. But just is the way he does it is, is way he does it is, it's not demeaning, it's not, it's not like he's putting you down. He's just cool. Yeah, he's just cool. He's very sarcastic, very cool, dude. So, you know, I wouldn't really give a shit about working out with him, but I would love to hang out with the dude for a day. If that man I had to go lift some weights with him just to hang out with him. I guess we go fucking lift some weights, but personally for me, I truly look at my workout

as meditation. And so if you ask me who would I meditate with, I would say, well, the only way to meditate really well is all by yourself. And that's kind of how I feel about working out. I really have no desire to work out with anybody. I don't care how, even, I mean, Arnold Schwarzenegger, you say something that would be so cool because it's all right.

Yeah, but I'd rather hang out with him. Exactly. I'd rather meet him because honestly, I'm more, I'm not intrigued by his, any of his workout skills and knowledge, I'm more intrigued by the other side of him. But how cool, how cool would it be if we had a time machine and let's say, me, you and Justin could go back into Gold Gym in the 70s and did work out ourselves amongst that whole fricking you know that whole crew. Oh yeah. How sick would that be? I mean I'd have to get jacked first. It would just be awesome supplements. Yeah.

It would be so easy. It would be so easy to that. That place was just full was just full of frickin' ginormous bodybuilding. Oh, it did. You could now butt-get big, bro. You know what people are like? I know, right? Testosterone, which is... I love when they're all sitting and eating together, like, all those eggs and steak.

Oh, my God. I love a tuna Alma. It's a culture, bro. It's just crazy. All right, next question is from Chai City Fitness. Chai City. What's the most... Chai City. What's the most ridiculous exercise or thing we've seen people do in the gym?

I could see like body blades. I had why about one. I was like, what the fuck are you doing? It's like the shake weight. Yeah. Well, there's a couple I've seen. There's so many. I was gonna say, this is a lot.

I can't even, I'm trying to think which one. Okay, I'll name one that I've seen recent that I thought was ridiculous so if you get first you have to picture a Leg curl machine that you sit down in just like you were on a lady's tension machine You're sitting you're sitting down and and it's just it looks just like a leg extension machine But it's a leg curl machine, right? So then it's you're sitting up here. See it up Yeah, and the legs your legs are out straight in front of you. And then you curl up underneath you.

I seen a guy pull up like a bench up to that. And he was doing neck, neck lifts on it. Neck, yeah. So he's got his face. He has his face pressed against wherever it puts their fucking sweaty legs. Right. And he's, and he's freaking doing these net curls and he's giving air ahead. And, yeah, and he's doing these net curls. This is just recent that I've seen that. So that's probably one of the dumbest things I've seen recent.

I've seen this one guy with the free motion machine. I actually have a video this in my phone somewhere. So maybe I'll give it to Justin to post on mine pump, because remind me. And this guy was, he was doing these crazy, if you could pretend like you had a sword in your hand and you were fighting somebody, like you mid-eval sword, right?

And you're fighting somebody. He's doing that with the cables. He's doing that with the cables. So he's got the cables probably on like 15 pounds. So the cables are so misused. I've seen somebody like jumping, like jumping and like skyrocketing themselves. I have a way, I actually have a video that I had to.

I was like, no, what are you doing? You're jumping to one side than the other and like doing like moon jumps. The most ridiculous thing I've seen had nothing to do with working out. It was in the sauna. Someone came to me and was like, there's a guy in there and he's acting kind of weird.

So I walk over to the sauna and this guy is standing. So this got a glass door. Anytime he was in Jerkinaw. No, no, and he's looking at me through the glass door, but he's just staring at me. Right, glass. And I'm looking at him and I'm like, what the, what's about to happen? Like this is weird.

It's shit's about to go down. Bro, he pulls his shorts down so that his dick's hanging out. No, he didn't. I'm telling you the truth right now. This is awesome. He pulls his shorts down, but he's not like, he just pulls him down and just standing there. You got flashed.

And I'm still looking at him like, and I don't know what to do like do I go over there? Do I let him finish like that rapie? I was like you just staring at me, right? He pulls his shorts down He's a compliment him. No, he's standing straight up and then he just starts to pee No, he did it. Yes. Yes. Yes He didn't hold his dick to pee. He just like everything was just and you just started and he was looking at you the whole time There's a creepiest thing I've ever heard. Bro, it's like the most it's like he was looking at me saying what are you gonna do? That is gonna fuck you. I'm pissing right now. He's being on the glass door. Damn you sell you just took this And I'm a level and I'm watching him and I'm thinking to myself like god damn

It's like he could have stole my wallet at that. Like, let me put it this way. If you ever want to stop a burglary or something, just pull your dick out and just stand there. People get scared. It's scary. I'm looking at him. I'm like, I can't go in there. What am I going to do? This is happening.

This dude is a badass, bro. Bro, I'm like, do I call the cops? I'm going to call the police. I'm not going in there. This is what you worked there, right? And there's people in the sauna behind him and they're looking out at me like I'm looking at them like Like you're all dead like they don't pay me to go in there. Oh my god. I gotta write that down. So he's just I'm not coming in

Dude, he's just pissing so I literally wait for him to stop He pulls his shirts up because it sits down on the bench I don't even go back at the sauna at this point. I go back up to the front desk and I page one of my assistant manager and he's like, what do you need? I'm like, I need your help, bro. We're both going in there because I just saw the weirdest thing I've ever seen in my life and I'm afraid this guy, I don't know what is he gonna do. So we had to go in and we kicked him out, but he's just standing there like and just started pissing. That is so awesome. I'm so gonna try that move. Next time I'm like in a department store, they're like, uh, excuse me sir, we're closing.

Oh yeah. Drop my drawers down. Here's my cock. You still closing? I just start pissing. Yeah, bro. But the craziest exercise of all day. But the craziest exercise I've ever seen was a guy,

and I've seen a lot, all of us have, right? A lot of stupid crazy shit. But the craziest thing I've ever seen was crazy because it had nothing to do with let me explain So this guy gets a lat pull-dart lat pull-down, you know bar Yeah, he grabs a lat pull-down bar with all this weight and then puts his knees underneath the pad so we can kind of come down and sit down So his arms are fully extended above his head with the lat pull-down bar He doesn't pull it down. He just starts twisting like back and forth. Like he's doing a bleak.

But here's the best part. Then he'd rack it and he'd add weight. And I remember thinking like, why are you adding weight? I'm like, why are you adding weight? You're just you're going in a direction with no resistance. It makes no sense to add weight or take weight. He wants to look impressive.

Like everybody needs to see what he's doing. Yeah. So that was that. And then there's this one guy that I guarantee you've seen at him because... Jesus Christ, bro, you're gonna share all the fucking stuff with him. No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, um, uh, Willow Lane. Yeah, the little, the little Hispanic dude. Yeah. Yeah. And he does all kinds of kung fu.

He does, he does all kinds of like break dancing moves too. That's the real kinds of weird shit. Yep. You don't want to interrupt that guy. So before we move on the next one, because, uh, Sal fucking talks so long, I actually have to piss so bad right now. And I don't want to answer this, this next question. So why don't we move down to Tesla?

You guys have to hold it down for like three seconds. Why run and piss? Are you really going to go to the bathroom? Probably, can I do that? It's our fucking show. I might not have a minute. I think what you should do, I'm drinking like a white because you're talking about pissing and I drink like two and a half gallons of water right now.

So Adam, listen. You're such a dick. I'm going to be drinking water. I'm going to be drinking water. I'm going to be drinking water. I could do crazy drinking water. Alright Adam, you go pee while me and Justin talk about you. Trickle, trickle, trickle.

So this next question is From monkey pee a little. Yeah, this next question is why is Adam? Why does he have a vaginitis? Yeah, why is that? Was that with the medical terminology? Yeah, and it's because he douches too frequently. That's it. It's the man Douching. Let's blame that. Medoosh. He literally got up to go pee. We're coming out with that product, by the way.

What? Adam's Eve. Adam's Eve. Adam's Eve. Adam's Eve. Adam's Eve. Yes. All right, so this next question is from underscore

Tessa Lea. Tessa Lea. Tessa Lea. The question is, what do we do about clients that binge and stress eat? Well, I tell them that they're fat asses. I don't do that. You do, never.

So much nicer than that person. Never. Lier. So there's so much tied to food. Much more than, like for us, it's not that big of a deal to watch what we eat, get leaner, build muscle, whatever. But for most people, there's a lot of things connected to food, emotion, there's childhood memories.

It's a lot of psychology. Yeah, it's always a, like, some kind of an event, you know, or it's a coping mechanism. So in this case, obviously the binge eating, you know, is some sort of release, right? It is stress-wise. Yeah, and it's not as easy as telling someone, hey, don't eat that.

You need to stop eating that because you're not gonna get lean. They know that. They consciously are aware of what they're doing, but this is a very, very tough cycle to break. And so, the key is gotta be some kind of a replacement there. Exactly. I would say you need to find the root cause

or they need to find the root cause of it. And also it needs to be okay for them to mess up. Right. As much as I hate saying that, as a trainer, when your client is a stress eater or a binge eater, and you hammer them about it every single time, it's not going to help. You need to let them know, look, it's okay, you messed up, you know what you did, we'll just get your back on track. I've actually noticed being more nonchalant about it and treating it not like it's an issue. I've seen better habits form as a result after that. The more that we just kind of move forward, I just run right over that. Yeah.

You know, like, oh my God, I just couldn't help it. Well, you know, you did that. What else? Exactly. And here's the thing. I've trained, my average client's probably building me for maybe four or five years. So I've had clients for a long time.

And there's quite a few of them that did not get the nutrition part down until two or three years into our training. And then something snapped, something's the hardest part, something clicks and then it works for them. But it's because food is a very emotional thing and you can't just cut it out. And for those people who have just cut it out,

the reason why they gained the way back is because they never identify the root cause of the reason why they were binge eating in the first place. Right. So this is like I said, you need to treat this. And there's always, it's okay. Yeah, and there's always people that would say, okay, well, I mean, there's always some kind of like prescription

to this. I feel like a lot of people have like these tips in these ways. I'm just not a big believer in throwing all these tips at people that like is trying to replace that with a new habit. That has to form naturally. That has to be something that they're pursuing themselves. I don't know. The hardest part coaching I feel is a lot of times what sounds

so best verbally, you know, that you could tell somebody never works. You know, it's really, it amounts to patients and just, you know, repetition and just constantly being there for them and being supportive and supportive. And being having empathy and being okay. Look, here's a bottom line. If they're working out with you twice a week, but they can't get the nutrition down, they're still working out twice a week. They're still better off than they were. And I like to look at the small things as victories,

like, oh, you ate vegetables. There you go. Highlight, the positive result of their recovery. Because it's one little step at a time when it comes to that. So welcome back, Adam. Yeah, how was your year in age? You didn't even need you. It was good, you know, and... Tell us all about it. It wasn no I'm not part of one of the things we didn't mention on my road to San Jose

Update is my water intake and my water intake this week is Ridiculous because next week I start pulling away right now I'm teaching my body to flush water to fast rate so you know I'm pushing two and a half gallons of water through my body and I have like I literally have like a nickel-sized Fucking bladder I swear so I already pee like crazy and then throw in the fact that I'm drinking that much water. It's a little crazy. Remember that time, remember that time I was tickling you and you peed yourself? Yeah exactly. Just like that time. Just like that time. You know, you guys said that. I had to clean it up.

Ben jeeting and stress-seating clients. This is like salty. For me, we've talked I think before. I think we mentioned when we talked about the books that we read. I'm big on psychology. So I like to read a lot of psychology books. I love learning that subject. You just want to hypnotize everybody. Well, I also feel like that's a big part of being a trainer.

You know, those of you that are looking to become a personal trainer, if you think all you're going to do is count reps and write workouts and shit, that's probably the smallest part of yours. You're literally the smallest part. Yeah. Knowing how to do sales and- And zero brain. Understanding how the brain works in psychology and that that side is probably

a lot more of our job. I mean, there's many times where I feel like I'm just a therapist. Well, here, let me ask you guys this. You guys have been trainers for a while. Uh, how many, how often, how many times have, as a client cried? Oh, God. Come on. A bunch. A lot, right? Right?

So, I mean, you are, you are the person. And, you know, and a lot of times, uh, so for me, and you set it, and you said it, Sally, I know I came in, came back in halfway through, so I hopefully I don't reiterate something. You guys have said. Yeah, we said exactly everything you just said, but whatever. You mentioned a point that I think. I got a P actually. I think it's so big with the, the Benchressing one is pointing out the things that the

small victories that you guys did have. But to me, it's always about finding the root cause. Whenever I had somebody that was a binge eater, those are some of the most challenging clients to take on. And the reason why it's challenging is it has nothing to do with working out normally. Normally, it's some issue at home or some sort of struggle that they deal with with themselves.

Personally, whether it be a reflection of themselves, they see or something that has happened in their past when they were a child. And as a trainer, I used to like that challenge of trying to dig into that person and figure that out and then learning to coach them through that. And by coach them through that, I actually mean nothing to do with the food and nothing to do with the workout is coach them on learning to be positive about whatever it is or whatever

is going on. That's caused this binge eating because more often than not, it's not nutritionally related. I mean, you have like your athletes, like your competitors that that ideal with binge eating, which is totally different. Those are people that binge eat because they've restricted so hard for so long and they've deprived their body too much. Then they go off stage and they freaking overeat and they binge different than a client who is 200 plus, 300 plus pounds and has been overweight

and majority of their life and they've struggled with that for a very long time, diving into that person's life and helping them out is definitely challenging. But also as a trainer, you have to like that. If you don't like that, if it's not something that motivates you, be ready to be frustrated. When I first became a trainer, it used to get on my nerves

because they wouldn't lose weight. And I'd be like, come on, you hired me, and then I realized they're here. This is a big step just for them, just them working out. So I kind of accepted them for it. And I said, look, you're here, you're working out. I'm happy with that, I support you.

And I swore to God, they'll still long enough, it clicks, eventually clicks, and then it works for them. Yeah, you give them all the information you can obviously and you tell them like the right pathway, but you really just like, you're there for them and then you celebrate the fact, like you said that they're there and they showed up and that they're working hard and all these things

and oh, but I didn't do it. I'm like, okay, yeah, you know what to do, right? Like, do we need to cover this again? You know, I can help you through this step I said, whatever, really what it's about is consistently, let's just keep coming in, let's do this. Exactly.

All right, last question here. This is from KVN.HRN, Kevin Herm. So Adam, this is for you. So if you were the author of a men's dating book, what would be the time duration and monetary output that you would have to reach before calling it quits with a woman? In other words, when you start to get diminishing return, you know, where that magic hat is. So like how mysterious. So like how much work would you have to put into it before you

like, it's not worth it. I get the question so much that I commented back to him when I read it. It made the question so much that I commented back to him when I read it, it made me laugh because this is why we call Adam a wizard. Exactly. I have talked about this before with many friends and trainers that have worked for me for. I am the warlock.

I used to, I used to say that there's the 369 and 12 month marks. These are all crucial marks in a relationship. You really have this shit broken down. I really do. I am. This is great. I don't know why in a relationship. You really have this shit broken down. I really do. I am. This is great. I don't know why I'm showing.

I know this is awesome. So in each phase of a relationship, there's things that are happening that are extremely important. And we'll get to the monetary side, which that's the second part of this question. But first is finding out about this person in the 369 and 12. The three month mark, typically certain things have happened. A three month mark that you've been dating somebody, you're no longer dating them, you've now referred to them as, this is my girlfriend or this is my boyfriend, whatever

it is male or female, doesn't matter, this, this, this rule still apply. And at that three month mark, a few things have happened, you've, you know, you've been out, you've introduced them to probably some of your friends, you've gone out in several dates, depending on your, your morals and stuff like that, you've either already banged or you've made it to second or third base. So you've found out sexual chemistry and things are going on. That are going on.

And so at this point, this is typically where a lot of people either break up right here or make it onto the next phase. So you're saying third date, some sexual chemistry, but it doesn't have to be full sex, yeah. You can, yeah, where you're at there. I mean, every like I said, you have, you have found

out within three months the sexual chemistry. Whether you have sex or not, I mean, but my point is that at the three month mark, this is a crucial point where, and why I talk about it and I break it up in three, six, nine, twelve is that, you know, I think it takes maturity for someone to recognize it, because a lot of people, how many people do you know at the three month mark, they find out like, the sexual chemistry or one of these, or maybe they don't get along with my friends very well, but then they still continue to go on to month six, nine,

and 12 when you should have fucking broke up with him in month three when you already realize that they don't get along with your friends and the sexual chemistry is in where it's supposed to be. So crucial month, that's what happens in month three. Month six, month six by this time, it's definitely getting a little more serious. You've now probably maybe introduced them to your parents.

You guys have definitely spent many nights over together. You're starting to notice the routines and their habits because you've been around each other for a while. Maybe you've even traveled. You've even traveled. Maybe you've even traveled one time together. Maybe you guys have even traveled. No, you don't buy stuff till later on, bro.

What? You guys are gonna interrupt my book here. You guys are skipping ahead chapters. Sorry, bro. You're gonna read it. When is it a quarter? In a fart in front of her. Yeah.

No, yeah, that's to each their own, bro. That has nothing to do with where he's going to question, whether you fart or you don't fart. I mean, if you were the type of guy who wants to blow gas all the time in front of your girl and you want her to be okay with it, then when you should probably fucking do it on day one. Funny story. When my wife, like, when we were first dating, right?

So she's in the bedroom, like, you know, watching TV. It was like right attached to this, like, I was living in this apartment with this other guy. It wasn't a part of the house, but I had like a little room that was upstairs. Yeah. And it was right next to the bathroom. I had fucking explosive diarrhea. And I'm sitting in there just like, lighting it up like boom, but fire works, right? I couldn't help but kind of laugh. Oh, dude, I'm so glad you can't hear this.

Later on come to find out. She heard the whole damn. She was lightening it up. And she's with you. She was laughing at it. And she's still with you. She's so whole damn. She mightn it up and she's with you. She was laughing at it. And she's still with you. She's so married. And must be love. I guess on the farting thing, Sal, that's just something that you have to decide. I personally don't fart in front of my girl.

What? I don't. I have nothing to be with. Is it because it sounds like this? Spring. You want to know why I don't? So this is, you're so mixed down. This is part of this thing. It's lost its roots.

It's a breeze down the large hallway. This is a, and a lot of people are probably gonna like, what? I've been with my girl for four years, over four years, and my girl has not heard me fart. And that's a, no way. I don't believe you. This is, I'm not Dr. Phil,

but there might be a problem. I'll let you do it. I don't believe you. I'm not Dr. Phil, but there might be a problem. I will, I will, I will. You're asking the girls that when they come on here, dude. So in here is my, I don't believe you. I've heard you fart at least a million times, right? You fart like a 50,000 times. You guys are never gonna learn, because you guys never listen.

Let's tell you, there's a reason why I don't do that. Because the moment you open that door, you open the fucking door for your girl too. Brown door. And the last thing I want is to look at my beautiful flower. Look at my beautiful woman who I, at that's going to hold. Oh, I think I'm talking about your butt hole.

No, my girl, when I look at her, she is sexy, she's pure, she's innocent. And I do not want to hear her rip gas, dude. Yeah, you're right. Bro, if you marry her and you and you're gonna have children with her and you're gonna watch her give birth to your child Do you know what happens? Yeah, this shit. Who said I'm who's who says it happens?

Who's gonna who said I'm gonna watch, bro? You're gonna want to watch your you did come out. You say that bro. I said the same thing. Yeah, I'm not gonna watch it. Oh, I'm not gonna cut you guys are fast forwarding this whole process way too fast somehow we went from What's happening in month six? You guys are talking about me farting my girl farting and then me watching We're married bro. She herself when she has a kid like no bro

No, I might not watch that and that maybe you guys wanted to watch it Maybe you're okay, but that is something I don't want. I don't want to give my girl free reign to fucking blow gas all the time around me because like I said, I look at her differently and I like that. So at a respect for her, I go the other room and fucking fart. And I do that as much as I put it. No, I can't. Has she ever probably had one where I've had one where I've probably slipped out of my

I don't know, maybe probably, but you better but if you ask her and you guys can ask her, sometimes Adam Farton for an issue, we'll tell you, no. So I'm gonna fart right in front of her next time I see her. That has nothing to do with the dating book whatsoever. The dating book is a complete different book than the fucking farting book. I like the how you parallel the three, six, and 12, because I seem to one remind me of you selling

personal training. Yeah. There's a correlation there. Three months, six months. Well, next time you guys have a friend that you're watching who, when they first meet somebody and they're dating, and if you get a chance to actually be through their whole relationship,

pay attention to months, three, six, nine, because they come around and they, and they normally vent to you around Three six nine and twelve next time someone's complaining about their relationship Oh, I don't know about him. He's you know I introduced my mom and they said ask him how long has been dating guarantee it's gonna be around three six nine or twelve months It's just funny how this works. So wizard has spoken at month six You start to see these things out at this point you like I said you've probably introduced to mom once

Or twice and the been around the family so you know how this person interacts you start to see these things out at this point, you, like I said, you've probably introduced to mom once or twice in the been around the family. So you know how this person interacts, you've got feedback from your family, what they think, what you guys are like together and what they're opinion on this person. You've been on, like I said, multiple dates, the sexual chemistry is either there, it's not there.

At this point too, you've probably even maybe even gone on a trip or two and you see what this person, because traveling with a person is extremely important to see if you're gonna keep them around. Then if it's all good still, you move on to month nine. So you move on to month nine. Now, month nine, it's like, oh shit. This is serious right here.

Nine months, nine months in that we've been together right now. Like I've been dating this person for almost a year. Like this is pretty damn serious. And at this point, you've probably done, you've not only spent in the night, you should've probably stayed multiple nights in a row. You've seen this person, their habits, their showering habits, their bathroom habits.

They've had anal sex. Maybe you've had anal sex. You've done, are they a clean person? You see how they take care of their stuff? That's a few years. There's things like that that you notice at month nine. And at month nine and at month nine, you start to get to the point where it's like, okay, this is somebody who I could possibly

spend some time with for sure. It could be a long-term relationship because you're already approaching your your your mark, which is brings us to the 12 month mark. At 12 months, this is the shit or get off the pot point. You've been with this person for 12 months. You either know this is probably something you're in for the long haul. If it is, you should probably make that decision whether you're going to move in together, get married, whatever your morals and values are. That's up to you. But at this point, you've gone through travel on trips together. You've met family members, friends. You've seen all their habits and stuff like that. They're like, and this is at that point where you should get off the pot. Now, where the

monetary side kicks in, this is something that I do, and I've done with every girl that I've ever dated, is I allow girls to like kind of control my finances, and that sounds kind of crazy. And by control, I don't mean like she has control of my fucking check in account. She's spitting on my phone. I was just gonna say, have you lost any money doing this?

No, well, yeah, I'm sure you don't get her, like credit cards away though, yeah. No, what, no, I don't, I don't have credit cards away though, yeah. No, I don't have credit cards anymore, so that wouldn't be even option as it is. So what I do do though is, you know, they manage the bills, they manage my bills and run that, and I've had that, and I have also. So it's so fun.

I'm a big spender, so I like to spend money, I like to have a good time, and I find my relationship with another girl who likes to do the same thing. I'll kind of let her do that for a while until I finally sort of realize that we're I'm going backwards financially. And you know, one of the things I'll tell you right now that the woman that I'm with and we'll probably marry that I've been with for four years now, it you know, she's fully runs all my finances and my books. And she does that in a manner that I've always wanted. And all the other girls, I wouldn't tell them

that oh, this is how I want to be managed. Like I want to be managed on that because I am the type of person where, you know, I'll just keep making more money and spending more money and making more money and spending more money. And yet I have like, when I first started making good money and saving it up for my house and stuff, I was very diligent about putting X amount away.

This was my little budget that I always had. I've gotten to a point now where I don't have to stress too much like that. It gets really easy to live a little more flamboyant than I probably need to. I've got a girl that is the complete opposite of me. She does not need anything fancy. She doesn't want a thing like that. On the type who will say, let's go fly across the world and do this crazy extravagant trip that's

spending X amount of crazy dollars. And she's just like, come on, hun. Really what we want to do is relax. And that's all you care about. Why don't we spend a quarter of that money and go here and do that and we'll have just as good of a time. And so I've let girls monetary, so each person has to figure their number. I'll tell you my formula for myself. So when I save money, this is how I a time. And, you know, so I've let girls monetary, so you know, each person has to figure their

number out. I'll tell you my formula for myself. So when I save money, this is how I spend money, I should say, I never spend more money in a month than what I saved. So I have my dollar amount that I need to pay my bills. And then I have my dollar amount that I put away. And whenever, let's just say, let's. And whatever, so let's just say, let's take a hypothetical, then let's just say,

I paid all my bills, I saved $500. That means I only got $500, I'm only allowing myself to blow $500 in a month too. So I never blow more than when I put away. That way I'm always either maintaining or growing my savings and building. And so that's kind of my talent. Now I've been in relationships where that's not the case,

because if I'm in a relationship where she's spending just as fast as I'm spending, then I'm going backwards in the red. And I'm in a relationship where that's not the case. My girl is rock solid when it comes to that. So that's kind of the numbers game when it comes to the money output. So they should help you save and that may help you spend.

Yeah, because I already do spending on my own. Just fine. And in front of them, This is according to the wizard Wizard the wizard is right. Yeah. Uh, are we done? Is that it? Doug we we're a time.
