all these movies are good movies guys they're entertaining very entertaining but so is my guest tonight that I got a fucking I mean it's just It's been a great pleasure to meet you. Oh. Dr. Belize. Thank you.

How are you? You said the last name? Vranich. Yeah. We can stick with Belize. What's up, Doc? Yeah, good. I'm glad to be here.

Now, how long are you in town for? I'm in town for another week, and then I go back to New York for a month, and then I come back here and forth and back and forth. Did you do any things today? Did you work with people for you? Yeah, yeah. I saw a couple people today. I wrote some stuff, you know, write, see people, take care of my dog.

Now, let everybody know what you do. So I'm founder of the breathing class, which is exactly what it sounds like. I've always gotten yelled out about changing the name. You know, get a name like Lulu Lemon. Why don't you get a name like Spin Classes like Pure Yoga? And I can't, it's the breathing class. That's what it is. I teach people to breathe.

So I'm a clinical psychologist from a million years ago, and I switched over to teach people breathing. And whether it's endurance for sports or stress reduction, it works. I love doing it and that's what I do. Now, when you say you work with somebody for endurance, I'm a track runner, I'm young, you know, 32, I want to run the Iron Man, whatever. What kind of, how much work goes in on the other side? Okay, well, 32. It's not like you're going to touch them and do three, because he, I've heard this shit before.

Somebody's telling me, there's a guy in Burbank, you go down there, and he touches your lungs and you get endurance. to me that sound fucking far-fetched because they believe that the ribcage is attacked to the lung, the lung won't expand. And I heard that I'm like, something don't sound right there. I heard that about a year ago. I was like, that's not going to work. No.

How long would a person have to work to increase their endurance with your principles? Okay. Well, let's think about, first of all, is that if you're 32, your lung capacity actually grows until you're 29. So you've already started to plateau as far as your breathing at 32. It's not like you're going to get better. Your breathing's going to get better. It's actually going to get worse. So you need to start doing breathing exercises. I'd say you can make a change if you're super motivated within a week, definitely within two. So I've seen people get the exercises, do them crazy, do them with like incredible motivation and focus and change their endurance.

within a week, 10 days. Absolutely, you can do that. I can't touch your chest and have it happen in a couple seconds. Definitely not. But I don't know about that. Now, how did? I read somewhere where you worked in Jacques Cousteau. Yeah, I did work with Jacques.

Get out of here. Where? Yeah, and so in New York. And then I got moved over to the office in Paris. It was great. I mean, hey, I wasn't on the boat. I wasn't on the boat. But I was a big Cousteau fan before.

Me too. I mean, you learned so much. Wow. So, no, I know a lot. I mean, I loved marine life beforehand. and my French was my second major. So I wanted a job with Jacques Cousteau that had anything to do with animals and water. And, you know, even though I was in New York, I didn't get to go on the boat.

But he was around. His family was around. It was a really great experience. Nice stuff. Your resume is just when it comes to breathing, you're like the G-Cundo of breathing. And it's very smart. I love that about people. I hate people who show up and say, well, over at Harvard,

but I specialize on this and this is how it is. And somebody's going to say, listen, I read this journal and this and this and this. And this is what I took you from each person. This is what kind of, and in my world, they call us synopsis. What's the other word, an educated guess in a way, but a proven guess. I could tell by your confidence. Yeah. We had an email, and then you called me, and you told me to do this,

and we tried to connect on a private level, and I was always busy because it was pilot season. and then I saw that you were doing a seminar and I just signed up without calling you. I was just excited. I was in town the same week you were there, you know? And what really made me want to put you on the podcast and what really was your call to me on Sunday. It was distressing but not fatal.

You know what I'm saying? We could work on my lung power and do all these things. But it really touched me that there's still people who believe in customer service who call and I'll send you stuff out. afterward and we'll call again and keep in touch you. You know who called me yesterday? Anthony Ardunk.

I got my call. Who's the fucking 310 number? It was Anthony. He goes, it was great to see you. Boom, I'm in. That's the school of thought I was raised from, you know? Like, I was going to call you Monday. I'm not going to call some hell of a Lodge Day.

You didn't give a fuck. You called, which is great. And that's how I work with people is that if you're motivated and you want to get better or you're motivated and you want to get, you know, rid of your, whatever medical problem you have or you better endurance. If you're into this, if you want to, you know, work with me, I'm excited about it. I love people who want to change and want to get better. And I will call you. I will remind you. It's tough love because I'm going to say things you may not like, but I'll say things that no other doctors ever told you before because a lot of doctors will pussyfoot around.

They'll say, well, I don't want to tell my patient this because then I'll have them here for another hour and they'll be calling and I'm just going to write this script but um no I I everything about you liable then I'm liable if I tell there's something going on inside with me yeah I know there is it's it's not lung cancer nothing like that but you know I go to acupuncture I go to the heart doctor he does all the fucking inks through the heart and all that stuff the problem oh you would tell you were you like you should have been on some type of oxygen therapy When I go to sleep apnea doctor, the first thing they do to me is I blow in some fucking bugle.

Yeah, you did. You did the bugle. You did the bugle in my class. And I know it's fucking terrible because I can't even finish it. It's like a fucking, you know, it doesn't take a genius. I'm no med school student, but I know it's not good. The lady walks away and nobody says dick to me. They come back and they ask me when I'm doing a sleep study.

Okay, and what I say to you? I said, I'm already done the sleep study. What the fuck am I going to go back in there and get tortured for? They put a masking and then turn the head down to two and watch you squirm around like fucking Hannibal Lector at the end like they electrocuting me. Fuck you. Well, that was kind of my question. It sounds like a silly question, but why is breathing so important?

Okay. You know, and I have to say the short version of that is that it's the cornerstone of your health. So if you're not breathing well, you can do everything after that. It's just not going to work as well. So it's cell fuel. It fuels your entire body. And it's what your brain works on, what your organs work on, what your muscles work on. Think about it.

Everything you do is to get more oxygen in your body. When you take supplements, you know, you're working out. All the things that you do are so that you can use the oxygen better and get more oxygen in your body. So why not actually just breathe better? I mean, doing all the other stuff is good too, but just start with breathing better. It sounds a lot of what Joey talks about on the show is like getting to the root of the problem, really. like just getting to the most simple step. So you can, let's like, when people do, like, for a podcast,

they'll do weird stuff that you don't really need to do, like, weird videos or whatever. And before you can work out, I guess you have to be able to breathe. Like, before you can do any of that, you have to fix it. It's very cut to the chase. And that's my MO, even as a therapist, because I was a therapist for 25 years, I was very cut to the chase. I used to give people homework. It was very dynamic.

I didn't sit back and go, okay, well, make an appointment with me, you know, times a week for 10 years. That was not my, I mean, a lot of people wanted that and needed that. That's not my, the way I work. It needs to be dynamic. You need to do your homework. I will love you. I will call you. I'll do anything you need to get your goals done, but you got to work with me. It's very dynamic. And you see change immediately. So, so that's why. I mean, your body needs oxygen. But I also, I mean, it needs a balance of oxygen. If I'm going to be more specific, it's that more and more and more oxygen isn't better. It's a combination of having a balance. balance of carbon dioxide and oxygen in your body and using the right muscles, which is what

Joey learned about, what muscles you have in your body that help you breathe better, and he's making those stronger. So, yeah. I did the twist today, the side bends. Nice. I did the kettlebell on my stomach with the breathing, let's try to your belly button to hit the back. Yeah. I read another chapter.

I just, I got to tell you, it's sad because that was my forte growing up. that I could, you know, me and these girls, Kathy Moran, we were fucking geeks in the eighth grade. Yeah, I went around the corner and smoked pot with the long-haired kids once. But, you know what, I loved, I wanted to get really good at basketball. So I knew in the fourth quarter, what do you need? Fucking endurance, okay? And I would sit against the wall and work on my muscles to get tight in the eighth grade and seventh grade.

but she was a track runner in the high school. They were older than I was. Her and her girlfriends, and I would go to them and say, dog, I don't know nothing about running. And they would go, okay, just come to the high, and we go to McKinley first,

and they had like a 100-yard concrete fucking platform. You went to my grand school. Yeah, yeah. And her and I would walk out 40 yards, and we'd do 40-yard sprints, and another kid, Pancho, Cuban kids stole the hurdles. And I tried the hurdles,

and I was really good at him. And, you know, I started playing basketball. When I was a freshman, I could hold on to the rim, and I was two inches away from dunking, and I could run. And I remember running from, you know, I come from the second hillyest town in the country. I come from North Bergen, New Jersey. On paper, look it up on you.

It's the second hillyest town behind San Francisco. When I first moved to North Bergen, the cemetery is one of the bottom of the hills. So when it would rain, the graves would wash out. They just fucking fixed that. Maybe, maybe $20. What happened? The bottom of 46th Street, a casket was floating down there.

A fucking tuxedo with a half a skeleton. That's what, down your fucking block. And then they had to get engineering and redo it back because the cemetery would wash out. You know, the cemetery is fucking old. That's a good move, right? That's terrifying. Me and these girls would run up, like we'd walk up to first hill and we'd lightly jogged the second hill. And we'd go from fucking.

We'd go from 39th Street, you know, on a light jog, all the way to 88th, Hudson County Park, and then run around the lake 18 times, and then run back home. And then in 94. What does 94 put me? 31 years old. When I was 30, they used to have this bike trail in North Bergen that you rode up Boulevard East, overlooking New York City skyline. So there you are riding up.

You go to the, you go all the way to fuck into the George Washington Bridge, and then you ride across on the bike and then you go all the way down the west side highway to the ferry and then you take the ferry across that's your only breather and then when you get to the other side

that one of those ports if you look up the wehawking there's stairs that are attached to the mountain Lee and it's just attached and it's endless you see elevators but then you see these stairs

that go up so me and these guerrillas used to grab our bicycles hold the bicycles and run up those fucking stairs like guerrillas to the top. I never huffed. I never puffed. Who knew what the fuck happened? My endurance was always money. Dirty years, 20 years of doing cocaine, your endurance got to count for something.

You know what I'm saying? That's a lot of endurance overnight. I smoke cigarettes for a few years. You know, not early on, but later on in my life, and I stopped, I'll tell you what was fucking me up, the vapor pens. Those little vapor things, I think they fuck you up a little bit. My breathing was off after that. But the anxiety started two years ago after an ear infection. I never had that if I can't get air anxiety ever, ever, ever before in my life. But your body's pissed when you said you know that something's wrong with your body because that's most people that come to me, they'll come with me to me for specific reasons. But then I get that person who goes, I know something's wrong, but I don't know what. And they usually touch their chest. I know, like I know

intuitively, something is not right inside. I've got tons of prescriptions. I've got doctors. I've got appointments, but something isn't right, and I don't think that I'm getting addressed with my appointments. So you're going to get better. You're definitely, you may not do those stairs with the bike, because that sounds crazy, but you're going to get better because, like I said, it's the cornerstone of your health, so we're going to see your blood pressure come down. Everything. Everything's going to get better. My blood pressure has really come down the last couple of years. I think my health and fitness, I mean, it's very deceiving what's going on with my body sometimes

because I've always been a big bone, not fat, but just a thick dude. Once I had a weight to my regimen, it really, like, there's nights when I'm sleeping, and I go to roll over, and I feel my leg, and I don't know whose leg it is. Because that's how different my body has got. Like, it's hard now, you know. I love all this shit I'm doing now. But when it comes to my breathing and something, you said something at the seminar, you said something happened. Until this day, I don't know what happened because I was fine.

I swam. When I went back to the Y, when I got really heavy, I started. When I was 418, I walked into, I did a commercial at, you know, the dude who's got Parkinson's, the boxing coach. Right here in Hollywood. I'll train. Wild card. Okay. I did a commercial there,

and I met a guy named Macafoli. And during the thing, Macafoli, he goes, I said, oh, you're in a movie, you were very funny, and he goes, I've got to be honest with you,

man, you could be funny for a long time. You should lose some weight. Why don't you come to the gym and throw some mitts with me? I'll train you for a while, even if it's for free, just to get you started.

I had nothing to lose. I was 400 fucking pounds, so I started going over there, and I couldn't believe how hard it was working and how slow it took the weight to come on. And I was still drinking three or four cans of fucking coke every day, you know.

And finally, I read an article about no matter how much you exercise, you still need to control your diet. Your diet's the number one thing, you know. And I kept going. But at that time, I used to have to wear two pair underwear. I was thinking about you to give you more history because when I couldn't breathe, I'd pee my pants. My pants couldn't.

My breathing couldn't control. My little dick and my breathing at the same. time. Is that a common thing? You're like, you don't seem surprised. You know what? I'm a, you know, I did 25 years of therapy of people. You got to say something really crazy to get me to blush or think it's nuts. I've heard some crazy. No, no, no, no, no, I didn't say it to get the blood. No, no, no, no, I'm saying to see, has she ever heard it before? Yeah, that's what I'm asking. Yeah, no, no, no. So, you know what? So, um, your pelvic floor, and we did this in class, we talked about your pelvic floor. It's the 20 muscles on the bottom of your body. It's

connected to your diaphragm, your thoracic diaphragm. Like those two things. Remember, we did this in class where here's your body, right? So your pelvic diaphragm is down here. Your thoracic diaphragm is up on top. So they're related so that your breathing had something to do with your pelvic floor with that happening. Makes perfect sense to me. Yeah. Everything's going to get stronger. Everything's going to get stronger. We can go back to one pair of underwear, for sure. Oh, no, not a one pair underwear, but this was, this was wild. I don't. I'd go, the round would be over. And he'd say, go in your room, in your corner.

And I would feel the pee going out of my pan. There's nothing I can do. I wasn't going to make the bathroom. If I walked to the bathroom, I'd have a heart attack. Like, by trying to hold the pee at the same time, I'd have a heart attack. When did that start? That started when I hit 418, because when I was shooting the longest shot, I didn't have those problems.

But when I was shooting the longest shot, believe it on that, when I was in Albuquerque, they gave me oxygen. the doctor of the team said, come here for a second. I'm going to give you the ox. I'm thinking about all these things now, just so you know. But I'm also thinking about switching to sleep apnea doctors

now that you also told me that because after they look at that, they should make some type of recessing. Your numbers were really low. Really low. You're really low. I know. I can't blow like a fucking candle out.

We did an exercise with our fingers. Yeah. Oh, look at that. He's breathing perfectly now. Oh, because I've been doing 1,000 of these fucking I'm watching him now. That is good. It's so weird because sometimes you lose the focus and you're sucking in and you're sucking them and you're sucking it.

So you really, really got a focus. But when I read your book, it says repeat, repeat, repeat. And you'll cause a new habit. Break from zero to 50. What happens? Because I have a three-year-old. And when you look at Mercy from the side, she looks like a fat little fuck. But when you look at her straight ahead, she's tiny, long, and skin, limb.

And it's because when she watches TV She's breathing. Ah, yeah. She's breathing. She's breathing, right. She's breathing. So you made a point that we breathe normally to a five. And what happened?

And then, okay, so what happens? Five years old. So she and her little belly go to school, right? Cute little belly. She doesn't know, you know, she's just happy to be a little kid. Go to school. And what happens? Somebody pokes her in the belly and goes fatty, right?

because kids are mean, because kids are mean. So all of a sudden she comes home, she thinks she's fat. And that starts decades of sucking in your gut. Decades of, like, sucking in your gut so that you feel or you look skinnier. And then we're told that that makes you stronger, too. And that doesn't make you stronger. Really bracing your belly does not make you stronger. Inhaling, letting it go and actually working your abs and squeezing on the exhale,

that makes you stronger. But just bracing your middle doesn't. So other things that happens, she starts sitting. Because Americans sit. How many hours a day do you think Americans sit? All day. Yeah, pretty much all day. How many hours?

At least 10, 12? 13 to 16 hours a day. But that's when you factor in the drive van. Yeah. The lunches. You know, most people said at a desk all day. I can't lie to you. I forgot the number on because you mentioned it on that.

Yeah. And the other day I did something when I stood. Yeah. I just started standing more. Little things, man, because every time. You know, I fly. I fly five hours one fucking way. You don't think I get up and stretch my calves.

And when I sit down, my acupuncture said they call the calf, the heart of the leg, the second pump. So instead of moving around sometimes, I just do leg lifts at my seat to keep the blood going so you don't get that shit way. You get like a blood clot or whatever fuck is. It's crazy. I just found out recently in the past couple of years that girls suck in. Like, I've always been chubby, but I've never once sucked in. I can imagine sucking in all day. But then again, think about it, especially little girls, you start wearing clothes and they're tighter.

You start wearing compression garments. You have, like, you know, little sports bras. Sports bras will squeeze the hell out of you, you know, and exactly where you want to be opening up and breathing. So then we're told, you know, the posture, you tell somebody to sit up straight, the first thing they do is they pull in their gut. But if you get injured, and I mean with sports now, kids get injured, or you fall off your skateboard or sled, you get hit in the middle of your body. You don't want to take a deep breath. It hurts there. And then you look at everybody around you and your little kid, and they're raising their shoulders when they breathe.

So you think that's the right way to breathe. So all of a sudden you're sucking in your little gut and you're breathing like this like your parents do. Unless you stop them and you teach them, because you take a deep breath like mom and dad, and you show them the right way to breathe. so which is through the middle of your body pretty much from your armpits to your to your pelvis is where you should be breathing from but none of this up and down with your shoulders yeah yeah did I want to see that inhale and exhale again that was good that made me happy yeah I'm trying I'm trying I got to tell you his flexibility I was amazed three hours you sat there you've some flexibility well even when I was really heavy I always stretched at night yeah guilt over me

And I was always involved in martial arts and stretching. And then my wife took me to yoga a few times. And I really enjoyed like the downward dogs and the chowels pose and the one the cat cloud pose. Which we did in class. That's what I've been doing for the breathing. And I enjoy a good stretch. In fact, me and my wife made like the same commitment. She's been over at her yoga place for five months.

she went and bought 10 passes and just she always had a problem with the Y and then one of her girlfriends took her to another place and that place was too fucking my wife's in Tennessee she don't buy into the woo-woo and you know the fucking

yeah she just and at first when I started dating I kind of bothered me about it because some of the shit to me is interesting but some of the shit is just so out there it's just white people trying to be fucking crazy And at the Y, there was a little click of that.

There was this little Japanese girl, very cute. And she'd go in there, you know, with her perfect little body. She was 22. Filty feet. The feet were always filthy, like way beyond dirty. Like, the dirt has stuck onto her feet. Because she did yoga dances where a bunch of people played bongos. What did they do?

The line dance, the conga line, and they talk to the angels while they do downward dog and shit. That, my wife will not. tolerate. You know, that one my wife. There's no woo in my class. There's a little bit of woe. You know, at the end, we do a meditation. No, no, no.

That was great. That was great. Yeah. And yoga is called Chavazana. There we go. Chavisana, yeah. When I try to do that at home, when I lay down, I go, this is just Shavasna while I move my hips and breathe and exhale.

Yeah. Instead of just laying there like a fucking mummy. It was funny because I used to go to a German, listen, we used to go to yoga together. Me and my wife before she got knocked up, I got divorced and I was young and it bothered me that I'd gotten divorced. It really bothered me because that's the most simple thing as a relation.

How can you fucking divorce somebody? What the fuck is wrong with Americans? You know what I'm saying? That is the simplest form of friendship. So I got... So when you do comedy, you get lost sometimes, you know? Not that you get lost, but you forget where you stand, even as...

And I didn't want to lose Terry. So I'd pick her up and we'd run home. on Tuesdays and we go to yoga together, but our favorite yoga class, which I went just to get high and giggle. You had to be a monster. It was called power yoga on Tuesdays, and it was taught by a German chick.

And I mean, when I tell German, this chick was Hitler's niece. And she never lost the accent, so she would go, Chavasana. I don't even give it justice. No, no, it's good. She did it very Germany.

Yeah, I can't imagine. And we, me and my wife would leave They're like, I'd be fucking crushed. Crush, she had me picking up my leg. And Joey, you could do this one more sun salutation down, up. She'd say, I'll lose a hundred pounds. You come to my class. And she taught somewhere else.

Like, she taught like in Venice. Oh. Like three days. She goes, if you come to my class in Venice twice a week, I'll have you 100 pounds lighter. And she would say, I'll have your breathing restructured, and I'll have that fat falling right off you. And I used to look like you're crazy. So me and my wife used to call it Joe the German. And after a while, I'm like, I can't go to Joe the German no more, though.

She fucking kills me. But she was a big stigma on Chivasana. She really stressed the breathing, and she walked around, and she made the adjustments. I love the adjustments. Yeah, yeah. Well, how often do we really pause and just relax a little bit? We don't. We don't really pause and do nothing and really do nothing.

It doesn't happen. You're always checking your phone or going somewhere or coming back or worrying about. or worrying about something or regretting something, just really doing nothing for a couple seconds, good for you. I have been, since this little thing, this little, it would concern me. As soon as I went to jujitsu the first time and did a hip escape and tried to jihitsu-wise, I went home mortified. And then I tried to get high and go to class.

I'd get high to do anything. I went and got high one time, went to jih Tijuana class. I thought it was dead. I thought I was dead. I had to go outside and breathe and take my geek top off between the heat because you got to get used to that heat. That heat at first, and I'm a hot dude.

You know what I'm saying? I go to the doctor, and the chick who takes my blood pressure goes, you're a hot fucking dude. Like, you're a hot-blooded. I'm like, I'm Cuban dog. I wake up at 190 over 180. You know what I'm saying?

I'm one of those motherfuckers. I dream about yelling and screaming and jumping up and down and somebody stealing my fucking chocolate cake or something like that. I don't fucking know. I have some crazy dreams, too. I have some really, like...

I don't have dreams. I can't lie to you. I just... No, it's weird. The alpha brain will give you vivid dreams. Whenever I go on an alpha brain cycle, I'll get my dreams, I'll get, like, they come back in color.

Yeah. But I tell you what I... I know I talk in my sleep with that fucking sleep apnea because my wife tells me, she'll tell me you having a conversation with the mask deal with them, and I just heard a bunch of fucking mumbling and stumbling.

And that... But I know you talk Spanish. I always talk Spanish in my dreams. So I'm dreaming about my son when I was a kid always. With my mother, talking with my father, an uncle. I always dream Spanish. So this concerns me because one of the things that happens is you talk a lot. You talk for your job.

You talk in between your job and wherever you're going and coming from. And now I'm hearing that you talk in your sleep. Poor Terry. No, no, no, no. But I don't, she doesn't. She hits me with this like three times a year. One thing about me is that when I first moved to L.A., I didn't say no. And by 2004, I wasn't suicidal, but I was, I didn't have a life.

I didn't have, you know, I was with my wife from 2000 to probably 2003. I didn't see her on a holiday. I didn't believe in it. I'm trying to go after a dream here. You know what I'm saying? you want to get married and get mushy, well, let's do this first, and then we'll fucking get married, but who wants to get married to fucking struggle all that goddamn life? What the fuck wants to do this shit?

Yeah, we'll get, well, this ain't no fucking Bon Jovi song, bitch. It's 2016, you know, it's 269 the least, motherfucker, and that's what zeroed down, you know what I'm talking about? You know, we bought, what's that Bon Jovi song? That's great. I believe in that, too. But you got to work, you know what I'm saying? listen, man, but then I thought back about, because I was looking at it as a person that didn't have a family. I did have a family. She was my family. I looked at it as a Cuban single

dude who didn't have parents or an uncle. Fuck it. I'm not going to sit home. I might as well go to Houston and try to make a little money and stuff. And then I go, I've been dating this girl for so long and living with it. I got to start spending more time with her. So I started spending holidays with and stuff like that. And since like 2005, I really appreciate my time. because I know how fast Hollywood could be. I could be said, I've totally a thousand times. I go, Lee, I could be sitting here with you making plans. And all of a sudden, I'll get a call.

They come up with a new TV show. And it's going to happen. It's going to happen, Lee. Or one day I'm going to call and go, I book some show. And I got to work fucking six days a week. And I got to be there at six in the morning. I'm working until six at night. They want to come in and talk to you.

Oh, Lee, I'm come and talk to you. Thank you. He knows the truth. He knows. He knows how we do it. He's looking so sad. He got a little tears in his eye when you're saying that. When I'm home at night, I relax, man.

Nice. When I go home at night, it's not about me and my wife, I keep, listen, my wife is white, a real wife in Tennessee. You get her started, you ain't going to shut her up. You know what I'm saying? If I tell a story about my uncle stabbing a dude, she'll tell me a story about one time her and this is to kill the fly and it won't fucking end. You understand me?

It won't fucking end. It was a big fly. Yeah, it won't end. So I don't try to entice my wife too much. And once I entice her, I pray for the fucking phone to ring. You understand me? Once she starts going off, the other day, she should. Bro, my wife's smart, man.

And sometimes I get myself in a fucking well. And she won't shut the fuck up. Don't get a start on politics. She'll start torching with the super delegates and shit. And you're praying for that fucking phone to ring. You're sitting there, please. Somebody fucking called already. please, I don't give a fuck if it's a wrong number.

If they're selling a carpet, I'm buying it just to cancel this fucking conversation. So I try to keep it light at the house, and I really like the two hours before I get up in the morning because I spend two hours by myself, and I don't say two fucking words. I sit there without the TV on. I put a notebook. I get coffee. I smoke a couple tooth soots. I listen to my heart pound.

Now I breathe. So now I got the chair, and I just do my TV on. my little hip things in the chair. Can you hear your heartbeat, though? No, I eat it. You eat that fucking star. You'll hear it pounding in your head like one of those Disney. No, you can hear it.

Yeah, okay, good, because I got a breath for you to practice that. Yeah. You can hear it. It's with your. Okay. I got the advanced stuff to give you because you're now, you went through the beginner. You're in advance. No, let me ask you this.

Okay, just for people that. How does this help with blood pressure? Oh, it's direct. Blood pressure is actually the medical condition that has the most research behind it when it comes to breathing, the most. Lots of other things, not as much. There are studies, and some don't have studies yet, and I'll tell you it's my medical intuition or whatever, but blood pressure, there is a lot of science that shows you control your breathing. You take a breath where it's helping your parasympathetic, where it's helping that calming breath,

and your blood pressure will come down. It's intimately connected. In fact, you can't breathe with that lower body breath without your blood pressure being affected. And if you actually want to do the opposite when I work with actors and they want to get upset, and they want to get more into whatever upset state they're in, depending on their role, they have to breathe with an upper body breath and their blood pressure will go up, their heart rate will go up, their cortisol will go up. Yeah.

So it's completely connected, which is wild. That's why I actually like working with blood pressure. patients because you can see your pressure come down and you can keep it down. So all of a sudden you start realizing I actually have a lot of control over my body. And we actually talked about this, is that it sounds like I'm giving you bad news that you're in trouble. But the good news is that you're in trouble, but your breathing is going to change things and you have ultimate control over your breathing. None of your doctors do. None of the prescriptions do. You can change your breathing. So your blood pressure is actually something that we're going to watch go down pretty quickly.

It's so funny. I've been doing the exercises and you have to really think and control yourself and control your breathing. But what I found to be the most interesting, how is you told me to focus on the exhales. Yeah. But you tense up. Like I still tense up to control everything still. You know, I still tense up. But then all of a sudden, your mind goes, stop dancing.

And all of a sudden, now you're breathing a little easier. And I know that it's like karate. It's like anything else that you learn, single movements, they always want you to over-exaggerate them. So the repetition, and then in your book, I also read repeat, repeat, repeat. So I know that right now I'm just over-exaggerating. You know, I know I'm doing a belly workout with this. You are?

When I wake up the next day, a little bit. I was sore Sunday after the seminar. And what did I do Sunday? I think I did kettlebell Sunday. Monday, I had a busy day. Tuesday I went to Jiu-Jitsu and today I went to Jiu-Jitsu. You're maniac. That's what I did.

That's good. And now I've got no option. I've got to go to J-Jitsu tomorrow because it's there. The opportunity's there, and that's the commitment I'm cheek. Because my fear was getting on my back. But that fear being on my back stemmed from sleep apnea, I pushed my sleep apnea to the fucking. and health. And, you know,

when I, and we've discussed sleep apnea on the show before, you have no idea what it is to, to, you have no idea Lee. Once that sleep apnea comes, you have no fucking handy. People kept telling me I had it. Like, I don't, I, I never woke up

choking, but I was a huge snore. So people always told me I should go get checked. What is your girlfriend say now? Now I don't. Now, she used to have to wear earplugs. Well, you lost a lot of weight. Yeah. You lost a lot of weight. So, the weight went down. So that was the same time.

At 4.18, you couldn't sleep three doors down. You couldn't sleep three doors down. My poor wife was... Well, if you think about exactly what that is, so that noise is that there's something in the way. There's tissue. Fat. Fat in the fucking tubes.

Don't say it's fucking fat. Who are you kidding? And it's weight. That's the other thing I factor in. When I first went to Jiu-Jitsu, I got so fucking discouraged. And I went home and I felt really bad and I go, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, wait a second. First of all, this isn't me.

That's number one. I don't get discouraged. I'm not good at fucking mechanics and I'm not good at fixing a computer, but that's never been my aptitude. God never gave me that aptitude. When I was a kid and I got a flat tie, I threw the bike away and I bought another one for $1495, okay? I sold that one for eight.

Just because I was too lazy to change a flat because I wasn't good at it. I can never get the fucking thing in the tire and take it out and then fucking sink the thing. I didn't have the patience for it. That's why I love a Camaro, but who's going to fix it? You're going to come over and fix my Camaro? To be a car enthusiast, you've got to know what the fuck you're doing. But I do know different things. And I like different martial arts.

I look at all that. For most people, most people look at a martial arts like that as a combat martial arts. I don't look at it in them like that. I look at it as two guys. It's a chess game with your mind, but your body's in the way. And the guy who gets best is the guy that can move his body without moving his body around you. That's all jiu-jitsu is. If you look at all the really good guys, they don't even break a sweat.

Or breathe hard. Don't even breathe hard. Meanwhile, you're fighting them. They're fighting nobody. They're just waiting on your moves and control. and your moves and, you know, it's so interesting. So I didn't like that I was scared of doing something. I fucking hate that shit.

When I'm scared, I'm fucking pissed of something. You know, it's like when I have to go give blood, like tomorrow because I got nothing on the cards really except for 10 o'clock. I got to go over to this fucking place and give them an allergy test. The lady told me it's one drop of blood. It's pissing me up. But I get up like when a Cuban and I'm going down there right now. I got to bring my iPod.

I can't smoke dope. And I go down and get my allergy test. But that's the same way I felt about Jiu-Jitsu being on my back because I kept getting. At the end, my sleep apnea was getting to the point that I would wake up and just run and stand up and just go. What the fuck was that? Like, I didn't know what it was. Like, I wasn't just waking up and looking around and going, boy, that was a piece of chicken in my throat. No, I was running up out of the bed.

going in a whole you know what it's like in a hotel room where you wake up and you don't know where you are and you can't breathe you know the anxiety I used to get and then I got help for the breathing for the sleep apnea but towards the end of the cocaine and the sleep apnea I started getting anxiety Dr. Bleas and it wasn't it was from not breathing I would go on planes and my mind would take off and they'd go, what if, what if the plane shakes and your head hits the glass? Will you bleed? What are you going to run? Where are you going to run to?

Dr. Belize, my fucking brain would take over and it wouldn't stop until I'd just breathe. But again, I was a mouth breather. So what am I putting in my body, calm my monoxide, right? Oh, especially in an airplane? In a fucking airplane. So this is sending me into a fucking state of, and I got arrested twice. and let go because I would tell them

get me off the fucking plane. I don't want no bullshit. Listen, get me off the phone complain. I start karate chop motherfuckers in the neck.

So they got to talk to me and they make my wife come down and shit. Then they put me on pills. I got off the pills and I just went right to rea for an acupuncture and it went away.

And I worked on my weight and I dropped 100 pounds. And that took that anxiety. So I walked into Jijit

and they gave it back to me again. And there were times before, I would drive to Jujitsu on the drive there. Oh my God, my heart at the light would be pumping up a storm. And then as soon as I touch a doodgy, I would have to tap, just from the fear and the anxiety and the lack of oxygen.

I just have to tap. I want them when you go to the doctor tomorrow to look at your CO2. Because I can tell you that one of the things is that you have two, much carbon dioxide in your body. You have too much in your body. So how do you get too much carbon dioxide in your body?

You're not getting it out. So how do you get it out? So you're learning how to exhale, which is exactly, once your exhale gets better, it'll even out. So you could have a machine, but I would rather you do it. You can do it yourself. It's just that exhale. Because if you have a big belly to exhale all the way out, takes a lot of effort.

So you have too much, there's too much in there. I had a guy actually was a friend on Facebook. I never really met him, but he would wake up and he would almost be psychotic. He'd have like some PTSD stuff. He was a vet happen. And once they took him to the hospital and they looked at his CO2 and it was super high, super high. So that's what happened is that he had too much in his body. So he was, it was toxic to his body.

So I can tell you because of the belly and you're going to get rid of that belly and you're going to exhale and your whole body will squeeze. So watch yourself when you cough, because I just watched you cough, and you, look at that. See how you cough? You cough perfectly, which believe me, not everybody coughs right, but that's a good cough. When you cough, your belly squeezes because it's trying to get air out of your body, right? Beautiful. That's exactly what I want you to do with the breathing, is exhale all the way out. Does that make sense that, like, your belly's in the way of the exhale?

It does make sense. And now what do people do, like, because it's actually really crazy that you're here today. Yeah. I, my dad loves everything and he, he was watching and I cough a lot. And like every time I get a cold now, I get like bronchitis. Yeah. So if I, if like, okay, if I want to explore more of this, how do we like, who do we like contact you? Or like, who do we talk to about this?

It's me. Right? Or actually, he's getting to be kind of an expert. So I don't know. After Saturday, you may have him right next to you. But it's your exhale. You too with your exhale. Let me see you cough.

See how your cough's better? Yeah. What did I do wrong? Yeah. So go ahead and cough. A little bit, right? So I want your exhale to be really big exhale. Really big exhale.

So go ahead and exhale. Okay. And now give me an inhale. An exhale. Now just regular exhale. No cough. Yeah. And exhale.

See, there's nothing happening. You will teach you. Okay. But it's all up here again. And this up here, that's a stress breath and there's no lungs up there. So pretty much what Lee's doing is that on the inhale, he's picking up his shoulders and on the exhale is putting his shoulders down. So you're breathing with your shoulders pretty much, which means your diaphragm is sitting

right there in the middle of your body doing nothing. I also have a problem that everyone yells at me when I do kettlebells that I stop breathing when I'm doing the kettlebells. How do I fix that? Well, you know when you swing it, you kettlebells need the breath incredibly. You can't do kettlebells and not breathe. you cannot. So pretty much the rule is exhale on effort. Whatever you're doing at the gym when you're making an effort, when you're pushing or pulling or doing the kettlebell, the effortful

part of it, you should be exhaling. And that's going to make it actually easier to lift more weight. And it does. And it's something I have to focus on because while I'm doing it, I'll focus too much on the act of doing. And people will be like, breathe, breathe. But they should say exhale, exhale because you're already in an inhale you're kind of in a constant inhale I need you to exhale it's a similar thing actually similar do you think the fat shocks our body the lungs well the extreme weight the weight definitely the cortisol goes up but your body gets toxic so it's inflamed and that's why you have the nose stuff going on is that the inflammation in your body from the weight everything catapults from there so now you're fixing it from the bottom up now that

you're breathing from the bottom up, your body's less acidic. Because we actually, we did this acidity, right? So we're going to get yours to be better and yours is better. When you breathe after class the other day, you're at 6.8. So you actually got the inside of your body to be healthier by the end of class. Your acidity changed significantly to the end of class. And that just makes a huge difference. So I'm on a mission with you. I'm on a mission with you. I'm on a mission. I know you are. It was just why I'm excited for it. Like I said, I did the exercise there. It was interesting that I missed.

I didn't remember it from the seminar. It was the ball on your lap and stretching your back. I did that one today. You know, I did the side, you know, up with my hand. Intercostal stretches, yeah. Going down, exhaling him back up. I did it on both sides. I did the kettlebell, like I said earlier.

I did the one where it's Shinovazna, which is breathing. The two-part breath, yep. I did a little bit of rock and roll, and that one's good because I'm just that works on keeping my shoulders down. Good. So I just go out. You did some interesting stuff where you breathe and then you take another breath and put your shoulders back.

Yeah. And then let it all out. That one I didn't mess with because I was catching myself doing the wrong exercise. Good. That's perfect. I was catching myself doing the wrong form. You know exactly what I was doing. I was using my shoulders out instead of sucking and then going back. You know what I'm saying?

So all these are from there, some of them are from yoga. Some of the exercises from yoga. Some are from martial arts. like pretty much the Systema Russian Special Operation stuff and other martial arts. And some of them are from free diving and surfing. So it's kind of a mix of different exercises from all different sports, including Western pulmonary health and all the numbers that we took in the beginning. Now, do you do the seminar across the country, do you do two schools or just right now, L.A. and New York. I move all over. I move all over. I do the Department of Justice in San Diego.

and I do the DEA in New York actually. Yeah. And know other Jitsu schools across the country? What do I have coming up? I've got a couple corporations. I got some private patients. Now, I've learned about you was to Jiu-Jitsu magazine. So let's pretend I'm a school right now in San Antonio, Texas,

and I want to bring you down for a Saturday. How would they get a hold of you? They, you know, on the website or on the website, and actually, if you just put in Dr. Belisa or breathing, you'll always get a phone number or an email. So Dr. Belisa at gmail.com, D-R-B-E-L-I-S-A at Gmail.com, or there's a phone number up there as well, 646-250, 639. Now, when I went to your seminar, you handed me a book, that's your book, and you have a couple books out of it. I got a couple, yeah. And are they all on the topic of breathing? No, they're not because all within psychology, I've had a million different jobs.

So one of the jobs I had along the way was being the sex and health expert at Men's Fitness Magazine. So I have a couple books out there about relationships. About relationships, yeah. Not that that's one of my strengths, as you asked me before coming on the podcast. Were you Cuban? You're very attractive. I like your style. You're very warm.

I was just, I didn't know. Varnic was made. Serbian. We got Serbian and Cuban. Cuban, yeah. Okay, yeah, I wasn't trying to be this suspect. Not at all. I want to ask you a question.

Very interesting question. Dad, I've mentioned this before on the show, so I have no embarrassment here. We're talking to his family, and I'm sure that not too many people have asked you this. Let's get it out of the way. Breathing and sex. Good topic.

Great topic. I'm not trying to be horny here. Before I said something off color, I was talking to Lee, I didn't mean it towards you. You know, I love me and respect this, a little dick. But I didn't say it as a joke. I just said it's a true.

You know, we're talking here. I consider you like family. When I meet Cuban people, how I test Cuban people as I say a couple things. Years ago when I first got to LA, I met this student in an audition, and he was Cuban from Miami, and we spoke. And I go, listen, I do this show. We're at the comedy store. Come on down. You know, I talk about my family on stage.

at the end they ran out of there like a month later I called the guy and he goes he was never that insulted and never been so ashamed to be Cuban that he heard Union City you know he was a Cuban from Michigan and the little community was not lacking

so I've always been very listen man I went to another Cuban's house with a bunch of other Cubans and the Cuban played Mambo music and the parents went bufucking nana's like and then we found in LA, it was for racist motives, whatever. But, you know, humans are fucking weird people.

So for me, with humans, I'm too old to dick around. So I push an envelope. More more dick. And you were very sweet. And sex and breathing. Sex and breathing. Well, first of all, you know what? I'm not going to get, I have thick skin.

And I like when people are real, you know? I like when people are real. So, and I have this, this. sex and health background. So I was a sex expert for a while and a psychologist for a while. Working with all kinds of people. So any weird question, I love the weird question.

Well, you said something very interesting. Let's break it out in the fucking open. I don't want to leave the girl outside with a dog that much. It's not that's a bad neighbor, so we'll go like 15 minutes. But this is a very interesting question. Okay, so before, when I was a young kid, I was spooked into Catholic religion.

you know, spooked, and you spooked about sex and your sexuality, and you don't talk about it, and everything I learned was at the fucking bar. You know what I'm saying? And I went to a few movies with some godfathers, with my godfalon, I'd see a tit, or whatever, and I was always ashamed.

I don't know, and, yeah, you know, when you get to be high school, you mess around with people, you get pressed, you finger somebody, whatever. I was never, I never just even thought about sex and nothing like that. And then the summer before my mom And then I meant this little dirty white chick.

And we used to play around and shit. Because I used to dry hump this other girl in grandma school, and that was a good dry hump. I could dry hump for two or three hours. You know what I'm saying? I could dry hump to a whole side of the song. So her and I broke up. Shit evolves. And then no, we'll fuck a family here.

And I guarantee other guys have these problems. And I'm telling you, you said some things that the other day I was in the bathroom reading. And I go, wait a second. She's fucking sharp. So, me and this girl fooled around. Listen, I don't know. Nobody knows if they're a Romeo or not. I mean, nobody left this disadvantage.

You know, nobody went home and pissed off. You know what I'm saying? Wanting a refund, right? Yeah, nobody wants a refund, right? So after my mom died and years later, I got a steady growth and I noticed that it was down to a minute. And I have no reason to lie to you, Dr. Byno, I'm not trying to be funny. I mean, I ejaculate calm, a minute and a half, it's over.

Like, it's over. And sometimes I'm breathing heavy, and sometimes I even get dizzy. And sometimes I can't have sex in the morning because I get really, like, if it's early and I get honed up. So the other day, you said that sometimes your body goes into shock and your breathing changes. I didn't notice it until I was maybe 20, you know. Now I'm 50. I can't believe I knocked my wife up because these are the reasons why. I don't break it down, but we're family here.

Does breathing affect your sex? Breathing absolutely. Tantra is based in breathing. When you think people talk about tantric sex, tantric sex, you know, what does that mean? Tantra in breathing, it's the same thing. So think about this. In class, we talked about pelvic floor. And people kind of laugh sometimes when they think, why are we talking about the bottom of our body?

Why are we talking about all the muscles between your legs and your thighs and your glutes and your lower abs? What does that have to do with breathing? They think breathing happens all the way up, you know, by their shoulders, top of the chest. And the fact is that your pelvic floor is involved. You can take a better breath. And this is the breathing through your balls that I talk about sometimes. So if you inhale and you relax your pelvic floor, and again, I'm going to actually go into detail. If I talk about pelvic floor, it's the 20 muscles that are in the body.

bottom part of your body. And the very specific pelvic floor is your bicycle seat. So all those muscles that hit the bicycle seat, that's your pelvic floor as well. So if you strengthen those muscles, you're going to strengthen your erection. You're going to strengthen being able to last longer in bed. So that's why I say when you exhale and you squeeze your lower abs and you squeeze your whole body, go ahead and squeeze your pelvic floor too. And by squeeze, I mean this is what you can. can try stopping the stream of urine midstream. That's using some of your pelvic floor muscles, most of them, not all of them, or if you're trying not to pass gas and you squeeze, those are kind of your pelvic floor muscles as well. It's not all your glutes. If you're squeezing your

glutes, that's not your pelvic floor. But if you work out those muscles by squeezing on the exhale, which is breathing through your balls, everything that has to do with sex is going to get better for men and for women. So you're doing keegles pretty much. Yeah. So the takeaway with that is on the inhale, relax your pelvic floor, relax your hips, relax your butt. Okay, that's a reverse kegle. On the exhale, squeeze your belly, squeeze your body, and actually squeeze the muscles on the bottom part of your body, the ones that hit the bicycle seat. So you squeeze those and you let them go and you do that often when you breathe, letting go and squeezing and letting go. And you're going to have a better erection if you're a man. You're going to be a able to stay hard longer. And for a woman, you're also going to be able to have better orgasms. Yeah. Crazy but true, right? And you're oxygenating and all those other things. It's a really good multitask. Right now everybody's squeezing right now, I can tell. I can tell. I'm looking at you guys. I'm trying to practice it. I'm like squeezing and letting go. Yeah, yeah, yeah. It's just really

weird to put all the pieces together. That's the problem I've been having the last few days. Not really. it's when my mind goes away and I start and then I go what the fuck am I doing? I'm breathing out but my stomach's going the wrong fucking direction but I do know this one thing

and I'm a very honest person I do notice that on all my exhales my stomach can't go all away in because of the amount of fat now where is your diaphragm

under here? Okay so diaphragm let's do this so you put your fingers up by your sternum that little notch right there all right and then you walk them around. And everybody should do this. Go ahead and walk them around that front rib. And see if you can stick your fingers underneath that front rib and kind of give it a little tug. Yeah. Okay, so tug it out a little bit. Now your ribs are attached to your sternum like handles on a pale and they should come out

horizontally when you inhale and they should squeeze together and your body should get narrower on the exhale. Keep your fingers going around that rib, around the side. You're going to hit that floating rib once you get to the side, keep going. Now, if you get your fingers and have them go all the way to your back. That's when I was a joke in my shoulder. Okay, but imagine them going all the way to your back. So your diaphragm is attached all the way around that bottom rib. It's a huge muscle, the size of a, you know, medium-sized pizza, right in the middle of your body. And it's the enterprise. That's a really important muscle to have it. Smack in the middle of your body. And Lee, for instance, here is not using his diaphragm because he doesn't know how to yet. He's using his shoulder still.

But right now, when you inhale and you let your body relax and expand and you exhale and you squeeze it, that's you using your diaphragm. So you're doing it. Good stuff. What? May day, May day, May day. You're coming again. This is very, the seminar I left there. First off, the next day I woke up and my head felt different.

My head felt I don't drink I don't smoke You know I smoke a few numbers But my head felt different Like something different It happened

And then the next day I felt my back Because the next day I went out of pretty hard And I reread the beginning And I made some notes And I did some of the exercise And I remember a few things

And I remember one of the exercises I could see that My shoulders were moving too much So I stopped doing the exercise Until next week When I go to now What's the difference between? And two and warrior.

I got to actually remind you that you also, you also had a nice poop, right? Because. Yes, man. Yeah. That's the clinical word. That's the clinical word for that. Hey, you know, given how constipated we all are as a country, you got to celebrate a good poop when you have one, right? So the breathing even helps to poop.

Absolutely. Well, it helps to digestion. It has to digestion, so everything gets better. Because think about this, actually, at least thinking, what is hell? What is that? Is that if your diaphragm's pushing down on your organs, they're all getting a massage. So if you have acid reflux, it's going to help with that, constipation, irritable bowel. But if you breathe with your shoulders, nada, nothing.

So that's why you've got to learn to breathe with the middle part of your body. But, okay, so the advance, you can't go straight to the advance without taking the beginning class. It's just all that information has to sink in. But the advance we actually, when it's a jiu-suitzoo class, is that we do different types of breathing in your body. So we do a lateral breath, we do a back breath, we do a lower body breath and upper body breath, but in different positions. Because jiu-jitsu is super interesting in that you are always in a compromised position, pretty much. In any other sport, you're in an uncomfortable position sometimes, but in jih-su, you're always going to be in a position that's awkward. It's just the nature of the sport.

I'm so fat that there's times I'm on top of you and I can't fucking breathe. That's when you know you're a fat fuck. When I'm on top of your side control and I'm having a fucking hard time breathing and I ain't even moving. I'm holding on to you like you're a fucking rope and there's an earthquake. You understand me?

I ain't going nowhere. I'm holding on to your neck. If the earth tips over, you know, I'm taking your, it's amazing that they told me, you know, when you pass the guard, breathe and catch your breath. And sometimes because, you know,

you get caught up or they're holding your ghee, you know, when they hold your ghee and you can't move. And, you know, in my world, I know just to keep breathing. You just keep breathing. You know, just keep breathing, keep breathing. But once you pass the guard, I would lay it out on them just to catch my breath. And sometimes it was worse.

Well, one thing is that if you're breathing in a dysfunctional way, if you're breathing using your shoulders, that's a teeny, tiny breath. So if you're prone to take a teeny tiny breath when you have friction of the other person or the mat on you, it's not going to work. So that lower body breath is a much more efficient breath. That's why I like working with athletes is that you take a breath through the lower part of your body using your diaphragm. That's worth six breaths on top. So you want to be able to breathe efficiently when you only have a couple seconds to catch your breath. So, you know, like you asked, in the advanced class, we take all the exercises we did in the first class and then we make them a lot harder so that they really become challenging. So we do them in inversions.

We do all those breaths that we did upside down. So that's what we got coming up on Saturday. Is that we're doing them upside down. We're doing them in all different positions. Upside down? Yeah, yeah, yeah. I hope you got some fucking sumo wrestlers there. We got some.

I'll bring some to class. We do them in different ways. And then we talk specifically about fighting. So center of gravity. You want to breathe in a way that lowers your center of gravity. you want to breathe in a way that helps you tolerate pain, smothering. So we get a little bit more specific, which is nice, which is nice. If it's just jiu-jitsu, then we just talk about jiu-jitsu, which is nice.

If it's people from all different fighting backgrounds, you can use examples from all different fighting backgrounds. But, you know, like we started talking about is that if you're stacked or neon, you can't breathe. How are you going to breathe when you are in those two positions that are really difficult to breathe in? And that's, you know, some of the things that we do. I love talking about fighting and breathing.

I can do it all day. A lot of times, like, did you see that Sage Northcutt fight a few months ago where he tapped, but it wasn't really in? But he said later on he had like a flu and couldn't breathe. So do you work with fighters

then change their entire careers if they're not like gassing out all the time? You know what? I haven't, you know, I had, the first fighter I had was a Brown Belt, Gracie Brown Belt,

and he had plateaued. and he would gas while he was fighting, and he would also get very nervous. So he came to me because he wanted to get his black belt. And he did. He worked like a fiend, and he got his black belt because those were the two things

that were holding him back. And thankfully those were the... His technique was amazing. He was super talented, but, you know, he would run out of energy and he would get nervous. So that's perfect.

For breathing, I got him over those two things. Now, how about nerves? Aha. Well, if you're breathing upper body breath... Are you talking about nervous? while you're fighting or before? Listen, fighting and comedy, before you go on stage, it's the exact same fear. Okay, you know, I tell people all the time that I wear long shirts.

I want long shirts because I hate traveling with underwear. I'd rather smuggle on weed or something more important than five pair of my underweight. You know, five pair of my underwear can feed a fucking village. You know what I'm saying? So sometimes on the Saturday you work out. You jump in a pool and you forget to put underwear and you forget to put underwear, You forget to take your underwear off before you jump in the pool sometimes. So I actually had my underwear counted for four days.

So Saturday on stage, you have to go on stage. And sometimes I pee my pants from the anxiety before I go on stage. And it's the same fear for that one minute and a half. And it makes you a good fighter or a comedian or a good jiu-jitsu guy. That's what we don't, we have to just use it. Yeah. It's very weird. And I know how to do it in stand-up.

Yeah. I'm the master. I forced myself to, once I hit that foot, my goal is to touch that mic as quick as I can. So whatever fear I have in my stomach, I've already learned how to get it out through the microphone. It goes out. Their laughter comes back in and feeds me,

and we got a tennis match going. Now we've got an energy tennis match going. I haven't figured out how to transform that into jiu-jitsu, kettlebells. Now, with weights, I could, in my mind, take the rack off, exhale, correct? Uh-huh. Inhale. Exhale, on the way up. Inhale, exhale. I know this going in. Now, when I'm walking on the treadmill from a systema guy that we had on the show, the problem was the heat in the room at the other place, messed up the tape. And I'm going to call him and get it on. I get him back on the podcast. He's speaking.

spoke about because there's a jiu-jitsu school in Hollywood in Beverly Hills and they have a Sistema school. It's a Sistema Jiu-Jitza school, Tahiga Machado. And I forget with it, he's a great guy, this guy. I smoke too much pot. But one time him and I was speaking and he goes, this is what I want you to do. Just go for a walk in the park. And I want you to start with two steps. I want you to exhale on two, inhale on two. Exhale on two, then go to three. And go to three. and four, then five, then six. And he was telling me what he could do, and my mind almost fucking blew up.

So when you mentioned to Stema in your system, you know, whatever, whether it's a couple of warm-ups, what I'm going to do now is the next fucking eight months, I'm going to do all these warm-up exercises as part of my warm-up for either kettlebells or jujitsu or lifting. I'm going to do the side stretches, the breathing, the weights. I'm going to put a fucking tank on my fucking stone. You understand me.

I'm gonna put Lee. I want Lee to put his head in my stomach and lift his feet up like a somersault. We're gonna be podcast De Solet, you and I. You understand me? I'll do it. I will pay to see that. Because I know the breathing exercises already helped me in jujitsu today a little bit. Not that I submitted anybody anything, but I had more energy.

I moved a little bit more and I focused on the exhale. Beautiful. I focused on the exhale. on the exhale all the way to the end. And it did lower a little bit of the anxiety. Good. It should. Because neurologically, it puts you in a lower state of anxiety.

So yeah. Yep. Yeah. Your nervous system, and we talked about this in classes, your nervous system hears be in fight, in flight when you breathe with your shoulders. So you can't be anything but anxious when you breathe with an upper body breath.

So when I'm working with, you know, I actually had a particular. SWAT guy who was, he was having panic attacks in the truck. And I had to teach him how to breathe with a lower body breath and then talk to himself to pull himself down to calm himself down. So it's that lower body breath. So that makes you feel better your neurological. Then you can talk to yourself. But you can't talk to yourself and still be telling your body neurologically to be calm down because it's not going to listen. Even as you ever see the Godfather, before he goes to to shoot Salazzo at the restaurant. You know, that's why he's such a great director. The guy, I forget what his name is, Francis.

He, you hear a train stopping. Now, you're a sweetheart of a human being. I'm telling you this from experience. Before you do something bad to that level, and I did a lot of things in that level, your body, unless you're a fucking psychopath, which I think it doesn't happen to psychopath. But it happened to me.

I know whenever I would do something bad, The adrenaline rush combined with your breath gets taken away. It's like if I knew, for example, right now that Lee and you had $20,000 in cash here and a kilo blow, and my friend dropped me off on the corner by the cemetery there, by the time he dropped me off, by the time I crossed the street, I would be breathing so hard, just thinking about it, telling you the story. my breath has risen. Just thinking about it because I know what I have to do.

I got to kick that fucking gate down like Zambo. I either got to kick that door down, shoot it, or well, or jump up here. And get, you know, the only out here, where the fuck are you guys going to go? You have to jump off the balcony and get around the building. So by the time I jump up here,

I got a gun to the door, it's over. I got to get through here, get the gun. You know what's going through my fucking head? And I used to control that. Don't ask me how. No, I did. There was no book named Fucking Breathe. In 1982, there was no book named fucking Breathe. It was, when I get in the car, it was like I had just run 22 miles.

Like you felt that worn out, that that's had that much adrenaline. Now in hindsight, I know this from 30 years' experience, but 20 years ago, I didn't know this stupidity, how that short period of time, Oh, Lee's starting to make noises. That means he's really fucking high. Once he starts to make... I was wondering with that little purring. Did you hear that? Did you hear that?

A little purring noises over here. Yeah. He gets too fucking high and he says praying for his soul. You can hear him, please, please Jesus help me. Please Jesus help me. So it was really weird. You control that. And that's what's happened to me in Jiu-Jitsu.

And every time I go to Jiu-Zitsu, I go for two more things. to last a little longer on top and breathe or to complete something. Like you had that completed a sweep when I was really tired and I tapped. The guys said, come on, you had me. I go, I'm done. I'm good. I did two rounds and this, whatever. I swept you.

And I like when I, when somebody's on top of me and I last a little longer. Good. Because my anxiety levels, I learn how to create a frame, stay there, hold them down, So I get them, hopefully if they pull away, I try to escape. You know, I've learned all these little things, which is giving me more confidence. So these are the little things I work on from my breathing, just so my breathing gets better. I love that. And because you've learned in a way, I teach in a quantifiable way.

And that's what I like. You've got this number and you're going to get to this number. And then you're going to get to this number. So it's all about these little steps or big ones because I could see you're taking big ones. But it's all about steps to get bigger. and you're doing them. You already automatically go to, I'm at 30 seconds, I want 45. I'm at a minute, I want two minutes.

Well, the breath hold is still a little difficult. Don't worry about the breath holds. The first time I still get stuck. Yeah. And the second time I have to look away. I have to look away and focus and not have the clock around me. And I've been hitting like 34, 32. That's fine.

I don't want you practicing the breath holes. They're not that big of a deal. More than anything, I want you breathing through your nose. because you know that the nose breathing is super important. We're going to get your nose better. You know, one of my biggest fears, the breath is there's an earthquake, something, and I got to run with my daughter, and she's 40 pounds. And all I can do is run a half a fucking block and Godzilla's behind me

with 22 Japanese guys and a fucking drum. So every morning when I walk her to school, I try to last a little longer, and I pick her up and I just walk with her, and I just focus on my breathing. I don't focus on how heavy she is or how pretty she is. or how nice a hair looks, I focus on my breathing, you know, my exhale, my exhale. I've been working on it because it fucking petrifies me. No, you got it because we're putting upside down on Saturday, so. So upside down, how?

Can you please take a picture of it? I will take a picture. Do I get to hold myself? I'm not going to even tell you because, yeah, yeah, it's going to be surprised. But you know, you brought something up that's important, which is the endurance in sports, If you can get your breathing muscles to be stronger, then you don't gas. You know, then you don't have this feeling of not being able to, of losing motivation, of losing focus.

So those breathing muscles, I mean, yeah, we're getting you to breathe the right way through the right orifice, but a lot of it is strengthening your muscles. It's not, you know, it's not brain surgery. It's making sure your intercostals, your obliques, your abs, your pelvic floor, your diaphragm are all working just like any other muscle you want. to be stronger, period. So that's a little sore in the morning that you get, which is good. I want you to be sore.

I want you to have that feeling of why my middle of my body is sore. That's weird. Or I'm breathing in my back. I feel it in my back. That's wild. Sunday, the seminar was Saturday. And Sunday and Monday, nothing happened with my back, only something in class. When you made this stretches a certain way.

But Tuesday, I was walking Mercy to school. And I was focusing on my breathing. I didn't fucking get my wife started in no conversation. I just walked three feet. I heard of making believe I was thinking about something. And I really focused on my breathing at the light. When I had a stop, I could feel my back moving around my little fath. And I was like, okay, we're getting somewhere.

I'm bringing that to life. You know what I'm saying? We're getting somewhere. And you used to breathe that way. I mean, one of the reasons why it's not that hard, or it makes sense anyway, is because you used to breathe this. way when you were little. It was a long time ago, but you used to breathe this way. And now I could

make my body remember. Your body can remember by over-exaggerating the movements. Because it's kind of testing you to see, are you going to let me breathe this way? Because it wants to, your body, the only reason God put the diaphragm in the very middle of your body, that huge muscle, very center

of your body, right below your heart so you could breathe with it. Right? And you haven't been at all. And now it's sort of going, can I use, can I work? Are you going to let me do this for real. So it's sort of seeing if you're okay and you're really going to use it or you're going to go back to shoulder breathing and make it not do anything again. So yeah, it's just your body checking you to see like are you really, are we really going to work together now? Because when

you breathe with your diaphragm, when you read the right way, your whole body is working together. And you should get some kind of a feeling of that of like I feel like my whole body is inhaling and exhaling. I feel like I feel more unified in some way. Maybe not right away. But see if it comes to you. You're a bad motherfucker. I like that. I like that. I'll ask you some more questions.

We'll get you out of here. My main man, James Wilson, always emailing me. Little Jiu-Jit-to drills. He sent me a kettlebell workout. This is what's good about this health thing. Everybody kicks in a little bit. My man, Alex Costino and shit, Dak Z, not Rob G, the octopus,

Fire God, His Bet, Paul Savage, Sean Squint. Brandon Lee, no, Brandy Lee, my girl from Minneapolis and my main man and his dad, Bob Lalingis. What are you fucking nuts?

So what? So, you do the Breathing for Warriors 2 this Saturday. Now, when you go to New York, is there a Breathing for Warriors One? Yes, we have Breathing for Warriors 1 is End of

May. I don't even on my own schedule. End of May, and then we've got to teach your training, which is going to be either the end of May or the beginning of June, which is exciting. Because I've had, and actually that was not my idea. I've had so many people who train or who are physical therapists say, can I learn this? How do I learn this? I want to be able to teach this to my clients, my patients. So the teacher training is going to be fun.

And I love teaching. I mean, you give me a group of people that are interested in anatomy and psychology and, you know, I'm in heaven. It's weird because enthusiasm breeds enthusiasm. And I'm not a big fucking seminar guy. I wouldn't make... This was very important to me. Because I almost quit doing Jiu-Jitsu because of this.

Because every time I was going to Jiu-Jitsu, you know, I thought I was going to die of a heart attack. But I kept going more and more of just working on my breathing, working on my breathing. If it was one more hip escape, don't worry about it. As long as you breathe yourself out of there. So this was a big decision. of whether or not I was going to quit

Jiu-Jitsu. I've heard horror stories. There's a guy at Higgin Machado's that rolled one day and he left class. He sat on the way home his left arm started hurting. His wife told him, driving himself to the hostel of the double bypass. They put balloons on his leg and shit

and he's back doing Jiu-Jitsu. Good for him. You've got to love the valor, but I don't want to be, you know what I'm saying? So I'm trying to be careful. I know the one answer is like I just got to drop 100 fucking pounds. But that's easier said than done.

And I gotta tell you, when I first attacked this diet thing, it had to be when I was about 45 or 46 when I cleaned up. And it's become double-hearted and burning calorie-wise. Because I walk a lot now. I force myself to walk.

I walk to the weed store now. I walk to baby to school. You know, if I have a chance to walk, I walk to the office, you know, and so let's just work everything. And I could tell, there's no ice cream in my house. My wife gets fucking ice cream from time, but you get to the Mexican ice cream, man. He shows up at 6.30. The little cones are delicious.

But besides that, I'm not like a sweet guy and like that. If I eat marijuana, when you eat marijuana, it's a tough fucking devil if I can beat. When I smoke marijuana, I don't even need to eat. It's eating marijuana. If I stay up past 1140, the refrigerator is done. You know what I'm saying? Now, I've dropped the weight. I know I burned off secondary calories.

I avoid chips. I try to avoid French fries. Only when this fucking demon over here takes me to a place called stout. I got a horrible influence. I apologize. They got onion rings with horseradish, you know? Oh, my God. You just find that thick, and the burgers are delicious.

And I'm not even a cheeseburger, dude. And they're open late. They're open late and shit. So I'm a burger without the bun type of dude at the house. I love a little burger without the bun and the protein shakes and the drinks. You're trying to get me to, like I said, I tried that green drink with a lot of apples. Oh, my God. Have the more grapes in next time.

That's what I used to put in. Sugar, because salty fish. Let me tell you something. This fucking thing tastes it so bad. I can't do it anymore. It's like I told my wife. I go, you know. People have to understand that when you're 20, you still listen.

I didn't eat sushi until I was 26, and I fucking love sushi today. But they caught me early. I knew at fucking nine that cauliflower wasn't for me. I knew it nine that broccoli was not for me. There is no better dish looking wise, eyeball, than broccoli with cheese on top. Especially when you smoke 10 fucking joints and you're a hungry kid, nothing looks better. None of that shit has ever appealed to me. Tofu, I wouldn't eat fucking tofu if that was the only food left on earth.

I rather starve. I'd rather wake up in Africa with that kiwi mosquito bite me or some shit like that than eat that fucking... Look at the shape of this fucking zambola. You'd rather wake up in Africa. They'd fucking eat that tofu shit. I mean, you know, I'm done... This is a little bit extreme, Joey.

The dog, I'm telling you right now, I take it out of my hot and sour soup, okay? I don't fuck around. I don't even put my... I don't even taste hot and sour soup until all the tofu was out of that. Why? What is it going to do to you? Because it just, it destroys me.

The texture would fucking kill me. The texture kills me. All that shit kills me. If I would have liked it, I would have liked it a long time. Trust me, there's not, I'm a fat fuck. There's not that many foods out there that I wouldn't like it. But it's soup. It goes down in like two seconds.

You don't have to chew it. I don't want tofu on my table. You understand me? But I like hot and sour sauce. But I have a job to take it out of it myself. So that's what I do. There's certain things I can't eat, Dr. Belize. I just can't do it.

And I've tried. Just breathe. You know what I ate today? What? Spinach. Oh. Like I could eat spinach, but it's got to be made a certain way. How?

It's got to be doped up, heavy duty. Garlic, fresh garlic, cut it thin, a little butter, and then throw the spinach in there, mix it up nice. All right. Da-da-da-ta-ta-ta-ta-ta. You get some black bean rubbish with some some whatever. I went to listen man, I went to

today I had a meeting at three and the people wanted to take me to eat lunch first. I said, all right, let's go eat lunch. I put a suit on. They took me to a nice place. White people. I went in there and I got, everybody was eating steaks like canterwoods. What do you think I ate? I had a nice piece of salmon

with a bean hash with spinach. I didn't touch the bread and I had the and I had the chopped spinach with anchovies because What did you drink? Water and ice tea. Beautiful.

And you didn't touch the breadbasket? A plus. A plus. Yeah. Yeah. What do you think you're dealing with? So fucking novice. I'm trying to pick up the heat here.

Yeah. And it's tough. I did take a spoonful out of the chocolate moose. That's okay. No. You need a spoonful. Yeah. No, no, that's okay.

I went to jujit from 11 to 12 today. You can have that. You deserve a little fucking bread. Eat the flan. Eat the flan. No, I know, I know. No, it's from that movie. Remember Eat the Flan?

What movie? Real women have curves. I don't remember that. Yeah, you got to see that with America. Well, let me tell you some. If you eat fucking flans, you have a lot of fucking terms. There's two flans you can eat, okay? There's the flan you can eat at your friend's restaurant.

That's tremendous. You have an express so when everybody giggles, somebody might go home and fart one of those almond farts from the flan. Or you go to a real Cuban's house, where they make it with condensed milk. Yep. And it weighs 42 fucking pounds for a tray. It's like a lasagna.

And you're like, this is supposed to be a dessert. And you can't figure out why until you eat it. And you sit there and your body composition changes. I want to see you lick one of those fucking things after you eat a piece of flound whipped thing. It's black. It turns black. My mom does not cook, but she makes flan. Flan.

They fucking love. Cubans will make a flon that will kill you with the egg yolks. I mean, everything. That's how I like the coconut, but that'll kill you. Heavy. It's heavy, too. You'll get a piece of flonets. It's really heavy. It's too heavy.

It's two pounds for a slice of it. Yeah. Because is that porthos? I don't know if it's Cuban though, but Trace Lachiaz? Is that Cuban or no? Is that Mexican? I think that's more Mexican. Okay, but that's crazy, too.

Like, just... Cubans have a great dessert that I loved. And my mother loved, and I got to say it was probably... I hate to say this, Scott, but it was probably a contributing factors to heart attack. There's a dish called Matilla. And it's a custard. but it's poured over Entemans pound cake. I know.

With cinnamon. And you put in the freezer and it gets hard. Then you pull it out and eat it while you're watching the honeymooners. Oh my God, that sounds amazing. And that's the end of the fucking show right there. You understand me? That's how good that is. And there's one place that makes it just like my mother with that.

I wouldn't even tell nobody this. I'm telling you motherfuckers because my girls here. What are you living in New York? I'm on the Upper West Side. You have Cuban food, not by you. No more. I got to go up a little further. You got to go up by.

Yeah. But a couple blocks. Yeah. Garida. I got Garida on there. How's the dessert in there? It's okay. It's not like, you know, it's not perfect.

I like cafe con leche. Down on 16th. So you got to go away to 16th and 8th Avenue. They're from, but they're, yeah, they're Puerto Rican. They're from Cabo Rojo. No, no, no, no, no, Victor's Cafe on the Foresa. You know, there's not, there's a, there's a, how do you know, how how do you know this place?

It is, it's up on 136. You just have to go uptown. Not in my immediate neighbor, but we just got a lot of bagels. We got bagels and locks. Shit. That's as good as it gets in my motherfucking world. You know what I'm saying? Stop it.

Dr. Bliss, thank you very much for coming on. Thank you for having me. I just want people to know, you know, a lot of people who go to Jiu-Jitsu or black, I mean, people always hit me up. Like, it's like James Wilson. He sends me exercises. He sent me something called the, the go-eater. bag blaster for cardio.

You get a kettlebell, I tell him Lee, and you pick it up, what's I call it? When you hold it right healing, and you do a squat. A coooghler or whatever the fuck it is. Gobble squat. Gobble squat. Oh, I love those. You do five of those, and then you turn it over,

and you listen to this. You put this in your diaphragm, the bottom of the ball, and you spread your legs just a little bit. No, it's still shoulder, and you bend over instead of doing swings and strengthen your back that way to help with your, to help with your hip escapes. It does something to your hip joints. It makes them a little stronger.

That's the work. I did the other. I do some Turkish get-ups with my shoe because my shoulder is kind of loose. I'll do some cleans. I'll do some one-ard swings and some squats and that's the end of that. She does a yoga class for jiu-jitsu, specifically yoga for jiu-jitsu. Erin does it at Dynamics here in L.A. Does she really?

Yeah, yeah. She did something at 10 plan. No, I think she, I mean, she might do the class there as well. Right. Yeah, we'll pull her in here and ask, but it's a yoga for jiu-jitsu class. Okay, we know. And they could go to dynamic. And that's Anthony Harding, John.

Yep, yep, that's his place. That's a great place. And I'll be back there with you sadly. Yeah. Thank you very much for coming on. It was a pleasure. Just to know that our acidic level was okay. Yeah.

Yeah. Your acidic level was perfect now. And I mean, this isn't, you know, man, this isn't one of our things. typical podcast, but I thought you were so interesting and so open up. Can you tell us more about your book real quick? Yeah, it's called Breathe. I mean, and anybody who emails me and says I heard about you from the podcast, I will send you a book. So just write to me, give me your address, I'll send you a book.

It gives you the basics that we learn in class. It's not as good as class, of course, but it'll definitely give you the basics. And I'm teaching all over the place. And if you want me to come teach wherever you live is just about setting up, setting up a class, and I'll come over. And when you go back to New York, and when you look at your apartment, because I think you're as interesting as fuck,

and I think that you should alert more people of this thing you're doing, because I tell you, man, listen, Leonard Skinner's got a book out. I read four pages a day. I've been reading a book for two fucking months. I read four or five pages a day. Not because I don't like Leonard Skinner,

because I got a lot on my plate. I've read your book three days in the row, like 10 pages. So there's something in there, Especially for me because this is a big fear of mine, man. So thank you for, you know, tell me about your seminar for staying on top of me. And I'm going back Sunday to get fucking Part 2 of Warriors. Yeah.

I was going to call him Saturday night. And he said, I fucked up. What's the matter? Lee? We need four stars together. He was all panicking. She's probably naked. I was panicking.

You still not wearing the robe? No, she wears the robe. What the fuck is wrong? Are you still walking around with your physique? with long boxers shorts on and shit. When you wear the robe, you know what it does? I get too hot when I wear the ropes. Forget that.

It makes you fucking mysterious. They don't know what you're packing under that one. It's been three years. She knows exactly what I'm back there. But you got to show up with different costumes. Friday night, you're a bull rider. Saturday you're a fucking exorcism. And they all weigh robes?

No, you wear different outfits. She thinks it's a different person. You're talking different languages. You got to keep it interesting. You're at that three-year mark. If not it goes out I don't even have a book I don't even have a relationship on books

This is my name This is my new venture Okay You gotta get a cape Like a Tarzan mask How many can't rotate them No you gotta wear the same thing every night No dummy you gotta rotate them

Listen you know what Whatever your imagination lets loose. Whatever makes Paula happy, if she wants it to be an ongoing story, like you come to town every three months, smack her around, throw it to her kitchen table, and then make love to her and leave. That works. Then you come back at like a doctor, you amend her and heal her tell her you love her, singing a song,

Turn around. Every now and then I feel a little. And then you fucking leave and you come back at Charles Brunson, and you leave money on that counter. Take it. a whore. You know what I'm saying? You gotta play. I don't know. I don't do that shit. You know me. I'm a Latin lover. Okay, so what costumes were in your rotation? I only had one though, the cape. No, you didn't. Yeah, with work boots on, balls ass naked. That's how I roll. When I was in my head, black. With white underneath. With nothing but skin and work boots on. When you show up with a cape with work boots and a grandma blow, you're running a fucking game. You know what I'm saying?

Did you tie it together and like run? Did I what? Do you, like, run around with a cape? I would do a little dance. You know how I do? You just don't show up with your dick in your hand. You got to have a little cape and do a little dance. Women like to dance.

I'd say you hypnotize me. I'll use your fucking brain, Lee. We'll talk about this off there. We'll be back Monday, 8 o'clock, and next Wednesday. I love you guys with all my heart. Buffalo, get your shit together. Again, I like to thank Dr. Belize. Is there a website?
