00:00:00,440 --> 00:00:02,000
Speaker 1: In this episode, I do a one on one with

2
00:00:02,040 --> 00:00:04,839
my son Jordan, who won a powerlifting competition over the weekend,

3
00:00:04,879 --> 00:00:07,360
and I actually learned something along the way. I know

4
00:00:08,480 --> 00:00:12,480
the son is teaching the father. Are you surprised me?

5
00:00:12,720 --> 00:00:15,519

so impressed by how Matt and Connie and the team

00:00:54,920 --> 00:00:58,359
at bTB run things because they're always tweaking and making

18
00:00:58,359 --> 00:01:00,560

Speaker 4: Thank you for telling a friend.

30
00:01:49,079 --> 00:01:54,719
Speaker 1: That's always spread the word about the pirate ship. If

31
00:01:54,719 --> 00:01:56,799
you ever want to feel old, watch your kid do

32
00:01:56,920 --> 00:02:01,239
something that you couldn't possibly ever have for ever.

33
00:02:01,040 --> 00:02:03,239
Speaker 4: Ado even imagine doing.

34
00:02:04,560 --> 00:02:07,640
Speaker 1: Yesterday, I went out and I watched my twenty three

35
00:02:07,719 --> 00:02:10,080
year old son, Jordan, in a.

36
00:02:11,639 --> 00:02:14,520
Speaker 4: I was gonna say a weightlifting competition, but it's what

37
00:02:14,719 --> 00:02:14,879
is it?

38
00:02:15,000 --> 00:02:20,080
Speaker 1: Powerlifting competition? Powerlifting competition? See, I don't even know. And

39
00:02:20,439 --> 00:02:22,479
I asked him to come in here today we're taping this.

40
00:02:23,319 --> 00:02:25,439
It was kind of early on a Sunday morning, early

41
00:02:25,479 --> 00:02:28,879
for a Sunday morning. I actually woke him up. He

42
00:02:28,960 --> 00:02:30,800
told me what time he wanted to be here. We

43
00:02:30,919 --> 00:02:36,039
got him some coffee and some breakfast. Sandwich to try

44
00:02:36,080 --> 00:02:37,800
to get him fueled up, and then I hear he

45
00:02:37,840 --> 00:02:39,719
comes in and he says, yeah, I.

46
00:02:39,639 --> 00:02:41,439
Speaker 4: Went out to the bar last night and I.

47
00:02:41,400 --> 00:02:45,560
Speaker 1: Wore my metal because you won your age group for

48
00:02:45,879 --> 00:02:50,400
the powerlifting competition, which I thought was super impressive and

49
00:02:50,560 --> 00:02:53,520
something that you got to feel pretty good about.

50
00:02:53,960 --> 00:02:55,360
Speaker 4: I do feel really good about it.

51
00:02:55,759 --> 00:02:59,039
Speaker 1: Yeah, But I mean it's like putting on a costume

52
00:02:59,080 --> 00:02:59,599
and you go out.

53
00:02:59,639 --> 00:03:02,080
Speaker 4: You're like, I mean that is is that called low

54
00:03:02,159 --> 00:03:06,599
key brag? What do they call that? Quiet brag? Humble brag?

55
00:03:06,759 --> 00:03:08,719
Humble brag? Humble brag?

56
00:03:09,039 --> 00:03:10,439
Speaker 3: I don't think it's humble brag. I know.

57
00:03:10,479 --> 00:03:11,960
Speaker 4: I think it's just an out and out brag.

58
00:03:12,039 --> 00:03:14,759
Speaker 3: Yeah, I think it's pretty out in people's faces. But

59
00:03:14,800 --> 00:03:17,120
I mean people wear rapper chains out to the bar

60
00:03:17,159 --> 00:03:19,080
all the time. I can't wear a metal that I earned.

61
00:03:20,439 --> 00:03:22,360
Speaker 4: I yuess. I don't know if you did.

62
00:03:24,479 --> 00:03:27,439
Speaker 1: It was interesting, right because I had never gone to

63
00:03:27,560 --> 00:03:31,599
one of those well run I thought, you know, really

64
00:03:31,639 --> 00:03:34,199
moved people through did this stuff? What do you have

65
00:03:34,280 --> 00:03:36,400
like one minute once you get on the platform, Yeah.

66
00:03:36,319 --> 00:03:39,960
Speaker 3: You have, so once they call your name, you have

67
00:03:40,319 --> 00:03:43,120
you just have sixty seconds to get yourself set and

68
00:03:43,400 --> 00:03:44,240
complete the lift.

69
00:03:44,280 --> 00:03:48,039
Speaker 1: And you were the slowest by the way I figured,

70
00:03:48,400 --> 00:03:50,759
because you would walk out and you would look at

71
00:03:50,759 --> 00:03:53,120
the bar and you'd kind of roll your shoulders or whatever,

72
00:03:53,400 --> 00:03:55,560
and then the guys are like, all right, Joan, come on,

73
00:03:55,680 --> 00:03:58,599
clock's chicken. And I think you were at forty five

74
00:03:58,680 --> 00:04:00,719
seconds then left, and I'm Mike, and I knew you

75
00:04:00,719 --> 00:04:01,280
would get it in.

76
00:04:01,599 --> 00:04:01,879
Speaker 4: Yeah.

77
00:04:01,919 --> 00:04:05,039
Speaker 3: Well, it's very similar to what I would do with

78
00:04:05,080 --> 00:04:07,479
track in terms of the timing of everything, Like when

79
00:04:07,479 --> 00:04:09,960
I was when I was a thrower in college, you

80
00:04:10,000 --> 00:04:12,439
had the exact same amount of time to complete your

81
00:04:12,479 --> 00:04:14,439
throw as you would have lifted a powerlifting me. So

82
00:04:14,840 --> 00:04:18,480
I know, you know, everyone says like, oh, just go

83
00:04:18,560 --> 00:04:20,759
get it done right away. I'm like, no, I'm gonna

84
00:04:20,800 --> 00:04:24,079
make sure I'm when I'm walking up there, I want

85
00:04:24,079 --> 00:04:26,120
to make sure that I'm like confident and a little

86
00:04:26,120 --> 00:04:28,680
bit relaxed so that i can just get under the

87
00:04:28,680 --> 00:04:31,879
bar or get on the bench and just get it done.

88
00:04:32,079 --> 00:04:34,519
And that takes forty five That takes a couple of seconds.

89
00:04:34,639 --> 00:04:36,040
It takes a couple of seconds.

90
00:04:35,759 --> 00:04:36,160
Speaker 4: All right.

91
00:04:36,360 --> 00:04:39,199
Speaker 1: So well, let's back up just a little bit here

92
00:04:39,319 --> 00:04:40,920
and kind of walk through you.

93
00:04:40,920 --> 00:04:46,040
Speaker 3: You were a thrower in high school. Yeah at McQuaid.

94
00:04:46,519 --> 00:04:49,680
Speaker 1: Uh, muscles, you definitely had them, but you were a

95
00:04:49,680 --> 00:04:50,360
skinny guy.

96
00:04:51,040 --> 00:04:55,639
Speaker 3: Yeah, it's funny. I think a lot of that. A

97
00:04:55,639 --> 00:04:58,319
lot of where I started with both powerlifting and track

98
00:04:58,480 --> 00:05:01,240
was around the exact same time. It was one of

99
00:05:01,279 --> 00:05:06,480
my best friends. His name is Joseph Brunner, and he

100
00:05:06,480 --> 00:05:08,560
he was the whole reason I started doing track in

101
00:05:08,560 --> 00:05:11,000
the first place, and at least started throwing.

102
00:05:11,240 --> 00:05:13,360
Speaker 4: Did you know Yoseph. I don't think I ever even

103
00:05:13,480 --> 00:05:13,759
knew this.

104
00:05:14,560 --> 00:05:17,120
Speaker 3: You don't remember the the ginger kid at all?

105
00:05:17,199 --> 00:05:19,079
Speaker 4: The Oh yeah, yeah, yeah that was that was.

106
00:05:19,160 --> 00:05:19,759
Speaker 3: Went to Fisher.

107
00:05:19,839 --> 00:05:21,680
Speaker 4: Yeah that's Joseph. Yeah, oh I didn't.

108
00:05:21,720 --> 00:05:23,639
Speaker 3: He's my He's one of the think I thought his

109
00:05:23,759 --> 00:05:30,399
name was jose Well it is, but he emphasizes that pronunciation. Okay,

110
00:05:30,519 --> 00:05:35,199
I don't know why, but he he got me into

111
00:05:35,240 --> 00:05:38,959
throwing because he and I were teammates before I started

112
00:05:38,959 --> 00:05:41,079
doing that when I just when I wasn't able to

113
00:05:41,160 --> 00:05:44,279
run anymore because of the constant injuries to my foot

114
00:05:44,319 --> 00:05:48,399
and just the frustration. And he was also a big

115
00:05:48,600 --> 00:05:52,120
like he was really into powerlifting at that age, which

116
00:05:52,160 --> 00:05:55,879
was why he was so good at track and once

117
00:05:55,879 --> 00:05:58,240
he got me on the team and started getting me

118
00:05:58,240 --> 00:06:00,240
in the groove of throwing, it kind of just was

119
00:06:00,240 --> 00:06:02,879
one and one, yeah, and it became like a very

120
00:06:03,319 --> 00:06:06,319
The lifting styles are very similar. You're doing a lot

121
00:06:06,319 --> 00:06:08,959
of the same movements anyway, m hm. So it makes

122
00:06:08,959 --> 00:06:10,560
sense if you're going to keep training that way, you

123
00:06:10,639 --> 00:06:12,959
might as well compete that way too, Because then I

124
00:06:13,000 --> 00:06:16,800
remember about was it a year ago? Two years was

125
00:06:17,040 --> 00:06:17,759
two years ago?

126
00:06:17,879 --> 00:06:20,240
Speaker 4: Okay, two years ago? I did one? Yeah, you were

127
00:06:20,240 --> 00:06:21,560
in college still, I was.

128
00:06:21,720 --> 00:06:24,759
Speaker 3: Yeah, it was my I was going into my senior

129
00:06:24,839 --> 00:06:27,959
year year of college. It was end of the summer

130
00:06:28,319 --> 00:06:31,639
right around the same time, the same place too, and

131
00:06:32,000 --> 00:06:35,040
I had never done one before, right, but I wanted

132
00:06:35,040 --> 00:06:38,000
to enter one, and I came in third place. At

133
00:06:38,000 --> 00:06:41,680
that time. I didn't have any of the equipment I needed,

134
00:06:41,759 --> 00:06:44,319
I didn't have a coach, I barely knew the commands,

135
00:06:44,560 --> 00:06:46,720
and I still went out there and I.

136
00:06:46,720 --> 00:06:49,000
Speaker 4: Did what I did. Yeah, you came in third, I think.

137
00:06:49,120 --> 00:06:49,480
I know.

138
00:06:50,040 --> 00:06:52,319
Speaker 1: By the way, you didn't even have a singlet Nope,

139
00:06:52,639 --> 00:06:55,240
And so you have to wear these singlets, which, by

140
00:06:55,279 --> 00:06:59,240
the way, can you get a bigger one, like slightly bigger?

141
00:07:01,079 --> 00:07:03,399
Speaker 3: Yeah, I probably I've thought this is.

142
00:07:03,399 --> 00:07:06,120
Speaker 1: That thing, like practically it's like C three, you might

143
00:07:06,160 --> 00:07:08,000
as well just walk out there naked and do the thing.

144
00:07:09,199 --> 00:07:11,600
Speaker 3: Well, I mean, I don't want it like sagging down

145
00:07:11,800 --> 00:07:13,319
my legs as I'm trying to squad.

146
00:07:13,560 --> 00:07:14,680
Speaker 4: So I don't know.

147
00:07:15,279 --> 00:07:19,120
Speaker 1: But so, okay, so you and and that one you

148
00:07:19,160 --> 00:07:21,800
came in third. Now you're a little more aware. This

149
00:07:21,879 --> 00:07:23,720
is only the second competition you've done.

150
00:07:24,439 --> 00:07:27,480
Speaker 3: Yeah, I mean, I you know, I had that year

151
00:07:27,519 --> 00:07:31,399
off where I was where I was living in Saint

152
00:07:31,399 --> 00:07:34,800
Louis and doing track over there up until the injury,

153
00:07:34,959 --> 00:07:39,439
and then I decided when I came back and had

154
00:07:39,519 --> 00:07:43,759
my pseudo medical retirement from track, I was like, I

155
00:07:43,839 --> 00:07:46,959
want to get back into this, and I just I

156
00:07:47,000 --> 00:07:49,839
went online and I saw that Chris Harris was hosting

157
00:07:49,839 --> 00:07:54,040
it again at the same venue, same entry fee, same everything.

158
00:07:54,160 --> 00:07:56,240
I was like, Okay, I'm gonna I'm gonna pay the fee,

159
00:07:56,240 --> 00:07:56,879
I'm gonna do it.

160
00:07:57,000 --> 00:07:59,399
Speaker 4: So and these are sanctioned events.

161
00:07:59,439 --> 00:08:04,439
Speaker 3: They are. So there's two different federations out there, at

162
00:08:04,519 --> 00:08:09,240
least that I know of, for powerlifting. There's the USAPL,

163
00:08:09,360 --> 00:08:12,759
which is the United States. I think it's like the

164
00:08:12,920 --> 00:08:18,399
United States of America Powerlifting League, and then there's the USPA,

165
00:08:18,519 --> 00:08:22,839
which is the United States Powerlifting Association. They have slightly

166
00:08:22,879 --> 00:08:27,639
different rules and slightly different things that you're allowed to

167
00:08:27,720 --> 00:08:29,680
do in terms of like equipment. I don't really know

168
00:08:29,720 --> 00:08:32,679
all the nitty gritty of it, but I know that

169
00:08:33,519 --> 00:08:35,279
I got a membership for both so that I could

170
00:08:35,679 --> 00:08:37,840
you have a membership for both? I did, Yeah, so

171
00:08:37,879 --> 00:08:40,720
it could experiment and see, you know, I want to

172
00:08:40,720 --> 00:08:41,279
try both.

173
00:08:41,519 --> 00:08:44,480
Speaker 4: Yeah, when is? Do you know when the next one is?

174
00:08:45,559 --> 00:08:47,720
Speaker 3: I can go online and see when there are other ones.

175
00:08:47,840 --> 00:08:50,639
I know. I know Joseph and I are planning on

176
00:08:50,759 --> 00:08:54,200
doing one in Utica in December, okay, which is in

177
00:08:54,240 --> 00:08:56,840
the other federation, the USPAK, And that would be my

178
00:08:56,879 --> 00:08:58,240
first time competing with those.

179
00:08:58,120 --> 00:08:59,639
Speaker 4: Rules in Utica.

180
00:09:00,120 --> 00:09:00,440
Speaker 3: Yeah.

181
00:09:00,639 --> 00:09:03,879
Speaker 1: Look at this the armpit in New York. When you're

182
00:09:04,039 --> 00:09:09,440
walking up to the platform and you're going for your

183
00:09:09,559 --> 00:09:13,440
heaviest lift, this is going to be the one the heaviest.

184
00:09:13,480 --> 00:09:17,320
And I watched guys try to hit away. Like one

185
00:09:17,360 --> 00:09:19,639
guy just walked up. I think he looked at the

186
00:09:19,679 --> 00:09:21,679
bar and knew he couldn't do it and walked away.

187
00:09:22,440 --> 00:09:25,559
They just walked away, and I was like, I get it. Man,

188
00:09:25,720 --> 00:09:28,679
I totally get it. I couldn't do this, but what

189
00:09:28,919 --> 00:09:31,240
is going through your head? And how do you manage

190
00:09:31,279 --> 00:09:35,720
the pressure in that exact moment, because that's like a

191
00:09:35,759 --> 00:09:40,159
pressure fel Field thing. And there's an audience, so to speak,

192
00:09:40,200 --> 00:09:44,039
and judges who are they're watching your form and right,

193
00:09:44,080 --> 00:09:45,720
and you gotta get you got to get at least

194
00:09:45,720 --> 00:09:48,000
two white lights, yeah, to move on out of the

195
00:09:48,039 --> 00:09:48,960
three judges.

196
00:09:50,600 --> 00:09:51,679
Speaker 4: Yeah. So there's.

197
00:09:53,519 --> 00:09:55,360
Speaker 3: The judges are there just to make sure that you're

198
00:09:55,399 --> 00:09:59,279
doing everything correctly in order for your lift account. And

199
00:09:59,320 --> 00:10:02,320
then there's a guy giving commands, which by the way,

200
00:10:02,360 --> 00:10:04,440
they need to start giving that guy a microphone or something.

201
00:10:04,559 --> 00:10:05,559
Speaker 4: Yeah, because it's hard to hear.

202
00:10:05,759 --> 00:10:08,159
Speaker 3: Yeah, I mean you got speakers blasting, you've got the

203
00:10:08,240 --> 00:10:11,840
end music pumping DJ there yeah yeah, and you have

204
00:10:12,000 --> 00:10:14,600
the the MC of the event just trying to hype

205
00:10:14,679 --> 00:10:17,519
up the crowd. You know, credit to them. But at

206
00:10:17,519 --> 00:10:20,320
the same time, it's like it's kind of like golfing away,

207
00:10:20,519 --> 00:10:22,559
you know, like once you're actually doing it, you kind

208
00:10:22,559 --> 00:10:26,000
of need to be quiet so you can actually hear everything. Yeah,

209
00:10:26,039 --> 00:10:29,639
but it's never like that, so uh, they do.

210
00:10:29,720 --> 00:10:30,799
Speaker 4: Make it a bit of a carnival.

211
00:10:30,840 --> 00:10:32,759
Speaker 3: Don't they They do, but I mean, you gotta you

212
00:10:32,759 --> 00:10:35,879
gotta make it entertaining. People pay to get in there.

213
00:10:35,960 --> 00:10:37,320
Speaker 4: So, but it was.

214
00:10:39,039 --> 00:10:41,559
Speaker 3: The white lights thing. It's just to make sure you

215
00:10:41,600 --> 00:10:44,039
know you're doing everything right. So you have to make

216
00:10:44,039 --> 00:10:47,320
sure you're hearing the commands properly. You can't put the

217
00:10:47,360 --> 00:10:49,799
bar back on the rack for squats until you hear

218
00:10:49,840 --> 00:10:53,080
them say to do it. You can't press the bar

219
00:10:53,200 --> 00:10:55,639
off your chest on bench press until you hear them

220
00:10:55,679 --> 00:10:59,080
say it. If you do it too early, that's.

221
00:10:58,879 --> 00:10:59,919
Speaker 4: A light gone. Yeah.

222
00:11:00,159 --> 00:11:03,480
Speaker 3: And then if you obviously, if you fail to lift,

223
00:11:03,799 --> 00:11:05,559
that's three reds. Doesn't count.

224
00:11:06,279 --> 00:11:08,799
Speaker 4: If you how many attempts do you get on each,

225
00:11:09,279 --> 00:11:10,240
so you.

226
00:11:10,080 --> 00:11:13,679
Speaker 3: Have you have a total of three attempts at any weight,

227
00:11:13,759 --> 00:11:14,519
it doesn't matter.

228
00:11:15,000 --> 00:11:17,480
Speaker 4: So I only saw you do like two.

229
00:11:18,360 --> 00:11:21,720
Speaker 3: Well, so when you go, when you first get there

230
00:11:21,840 --> 00:11:25,080
and you do you you walk in, you give them

231
00:11:25,120 --> 00:11:29,080
your name, your ID, your membership card, You go through

232
00:11:29,120 --> 00:11:31,159
all that, and then you go to actually weigh in

233
00:11:31,279 --> 00:11:34,840
to make sure that you're uh at within the threshold

234
00:11:34,919 --> 00:11:38,639
for whatever weight class you're in. After that you give

235
00:11:39,360 --> 00:11:42,360
whoever took your weight is also going to take your openers,

236
00:11:42,960 --> 00:11:45,039
So you actually have to have a number in your

237
00:11:45,039 --> 00:11:47,200
head of how much you want to start with h

238
00:11:47,600 --> 00:11:49,080
and it has to be in metric.

239
00:11:48,960 --> 00:11:51,759
Speaker 4: Which I hate, but right right.

240
00:11:51,960 --> 00:11:56,799
Speaker 3: So once you do that, at that point you decide

241
00:11:56,879 --> 00:11:59,080
from there how much heavier you want to go. That's

242
00:11:59,080 --> 00:12:00,639
why if you saw me co back up to the

243
00:12:00,679 --> 00:12:03,840
table where they had that little chart, that's what I

244
00:12:03,879 --> 00:12:05,759
was doing. I was trying to figure out what I

245
00:12:05,799 --> 00:12:07,240
was going to do next, so they could tell the

246
00:12:07,240 --> 00:12:09,679
people who are loading the bar, hey, he's going to

247
00:12:09,720 --> 00:12:09,960
do her.

248
00:12:10,000 --> 00:12:10,120
Speaker 1: You know.

249
00:12:10,120 --> 00:12:12,480
Speaker 3: Those guys are like they're like a GASCAR pit crew.

250
00:12:12,600 --> 00:12:15,840
Speaker 4: That's exactly what I was gonna say. They got Jackson everything. Man,

251
00:12:15,840 --> 00:12:17,240
they're jacking that stuff.

252
00:12:17,039 --> 00:12:20,360
Speaker 1: Up quick, boom boom boom the weight tron and then

253
00:12:20,159 --> 00:12:21,799
in comes to the next person.

254
00:12:23,080 --> 00:12:26,879
Speaker 4: Through all of this stuff, what did you learn?

255
00:12:27,080 --> 00:12:31,039
Speaker 1: I guess about yourself, and I know I would say

256
00:12:31,120 --> 00:12:34,679
leaning up to the competition, but through this weightlifting journey,

257
00:12:35,720 --> 00:12:38,240
maybe something that surprised you the most that you that

258
00:12:38,320 --> 00:12:39,399
you learned about yourself.

259
00:12:39,480 --> 00:12:40,120
Speaker 4: Was there anything?

260
00:12:40,919 --> 00:12:45,039
Speaker 3: Honestly, the one thing I really learned was just that

261
00:12:45,159 --> 00:12:48,159
I can do it. I mean, it takes a lot

262
00:12:48,159 --> 00:12:50,879
of it takes a lot of effort. But it's not

263
00:12:51,000 --> 00:12:52,919
as I don't want to say, it's not as hard

264
00:12:52,960 --> 00:12:55,399
as everyone makes it out to be, because in my

265
00:12:55,480 --> 00:12:57,840
head it isn't. You just have to keep doing it

266
00:12:57,919 --> 00:13:00,639
every single day. I mean, it's like it's very similar

267
00:13:00,679 --> 00:13:04,799
to any form of training for athletics. Like look at

268
00:13:05,000 --> 00:13:09,840
you talk to like Joe Burrow or Josh Allen about

269
00:13:09,879 --> 00:13:12,039
like what it takes to be a quarterback in the NFL,

270
00:13:12,720 --> 00:13:14,559
and one of the first words that, like one of

271
00:13:14,559 --> 00:13:16,200
the first things they'll say is you got to show

272
00:13:16,279 --> 00:13:19,080
up every day. You got to do everything every day

273
00:13:19,120 --> 00:13:19,919
even if you don't.

274
00:13:19,720 --> 00:13:21,360
Speaker 4: Want to, right. Consistency.

275
00:13:21,440 --> 00:13:24,159
Speaker 3: Yeah, And that's something you told me about all the

276
00:13:24,200 --> 00:13:26,960
time when I was a kid with sports and stuff,

277
00:13:27,000 --> 00:13:29,440
that if I wanted to do it, I had to

278
00:13:29,440 --> 00:13:31,679
do it every day, even on the days I didn't

279
00:13:31,720 --> 00:13:35,480
want to. And you know, it's it's the same idea

280
00:13:35,559 --> 00:13:38,720
with powerlifting. You just you got to show up for

281
00:13:38,759 --> 00:13:42,480
training the same way, with the same attitude every single time,

282
00:13:42,519 --> 00:13:43,440
even on your worst day.

283
00:13:43,720 --> 00:13:46,600
Speaker 1: Most you know, you know, we see the glory of

284
00:13:46,639 --> 00:13:48,919
the win, right and we see and even with the

285
00:13:48,919 --> 00:13:53,320
guys you're talking about, we don't see what's happening behind

286
00:13:53,320 --> 00:13:56,840
the scenes necessarily, what their preparation is, what their private

287
00:13:56,840 --> 00:13:58,960
training is, what they're doing on their own time with

288
00:13:59,039 --> 00:14:02,120
the team time, all that stuff, and the same thing

289
00:14:02,159 --> 00:14:04,519
for you. But what's part of your training or preparation

290
00:14:04,600 --> 00:14:08,759
that would maybe shock or even gross people out if

291
00:14:08,759 --> 00:14:09,200
they knew.

292
00:14:11,879 --> 00:14:16,120
Speaker 3: Honestly, I think the most shocking part this isn't really

293
00:14:16,159 --> 00:14:17,919
going to like gross people out, I guess, but I mean,

294
00:14:18,679 --> 00:14:22,720
it's just maintaining the mobility on top of maintaining the strength.

295
00:14:23,000 --> 00:14:25,519
Like obviously you have to lift heavy in order to

296
00:14:25,559 --> 00:14:28,840
lift heavy, but you also have to make sure that

297
00:14:28,960 --> 00:14:32,720
you don't tear something while you're training, right, and that

298
00:14:32,759 --> 00:14:35,360
comes down to a lot of rehab, a lot of

299
00:14:35,399 --> 00:14:38,879
like almost yoga type stretching. I'm still doing a lot

300
00:14:38,879 --> 00:14:41,919
of the same rehab exercises I'm doing from my shoulder

301
00:14:41,919 --> 00:14:46,080
surgery even now on both sides, and I'm applying a

302
00:14:46,080 --> 00:14:48,440
lot of the active recovery stuff I learned about in

303
00:14:48,480 --> 00:14:52,480
the NCAA with my training for powerlifting, just to make

304
00:14:52,480 --> 00:14:57,000
sure I don't get hurt again. It's not fun, and

305
00:14:57,759 --> 00:14:59,480
you got to make sure that you stay healthy in

306
00:14:59,600 --> 00:15:00,480
order to keep competing.

307
00:15:00,799 --> 00:15:04,000
Speaker 4: How did you feel after yesterday? I was.

308
00:15:04,320 --> 00:15:06,799
Speaker 3: I was kind of shocked. Yeah, I didn't think I

309
00:15:06,919 --> 00:15:09,840
was gonna do all that. I wasn't going in there

310
00:15:09,879 --> 00:15:12,000
planning to win. I was going in there to see

311
00:15:12,759 --> 00:15:14,799
how close can I get to how strong I want

312
00:15:14,799 --> 00:15:16,840
to be? You know, this was kind of like a

313
00:15:16,879 --> 00:15:21,799
benchmark for how strong I was pre impost surgery, and

314
00:15:22,480 --> 00:15:24,559
right now I would say I'm about where I was,

315
00:15:24,639 --> 00:15:25,559
if not stronger.

316
00:15:25,679 --> 00:15:29,879
Speaker 1: So what were you yesterday? The first thing up was

317
00:15:29,919 --> 00:15:32,759
the squat? Yep, how much were you squatting? Because I

318
00:15:32,960 --> 00:15:33,399
don't know.

319
00:15:33,759 --> 00:15:37,799
Speaker 3: I opened with a one hundred and ninety kilogram squat,

320
00:15:37,840 --> 00:15:40,879
which is about four hundred and twenty pounds give or take, okay,

321
00:15:41,600 --> 00:15:44,919
and my plan with that was to just jump up

322
00:15:44,960 --> 00:15:45,440
by tens.

323
00:15:45,679 --> 00:15:47,120
Speaker 4: Yeah.

324
00:15:47,159 --> 00:15:49,679
Speaker 3: Obviously that didn't happen, but it's all right.

325
00:15:50,360 --> 00:15:53,360
Speaker 4: Yeah, when you got the first squad.

326
00:15:53,399 --> 00:15:56,000
Speaker 3: So I didn't get the first one, they but they

327
00:15:56,039 --> 00:15:58,480
give you a say. I messed up on that one.

328
00:15:58,480 --> 00:15:59,440
Speaker 4: That was my fault.

329
00:16:00,120 --> 00:16:02,120
Speaker 3: The second one I got, I did the same weight

330
00:16:02,159 --> 00:16:03,440
because I was like, I know I can get this.

331
00:16:03,519 --> 00:16:06,559
I just did it. I just didn't. I wasn't patient enough.

332
00:16:06,639 --> 00:16:09,159
And then the third one I went up. I got it,

333
00:16:10,000 --> 00:16:10,919
but they didn't count it.

334
00:16:11,120 --> 00:16:14,120
Speaker 1: Yeah, I was surprised they didn't count it, but I

335
00:16:14,360 --> 00:16:16,759
couldn't tell. Yeah, and so that was four hundred and

336
00:16:16,759 --> 00:16:20,879
thirty pounds. The second the second one something like that.

337
00:16:20,919 --> 00:16:22,919
Speaker 3: I don't know off the top of my head, but

338
00:16:23,639 --> 00:16:27,039
I will say even if I it's it was a

339
00:16:27,080 --> 00:16:28,960
local meet, even if I was to try and like

340
00:16:29,000 --> 00:16:31,840
contest it, they're not going to overturn it. Yeah, it's

341
00:16:31,840 --> 00:16:34,600
not like it's a national qualifying heed or like someone's

342
00:16:34,639 --> 00:16:38,279
going for a state record or something. What about bench

343
00:16:38,320 --> 00:16:43,240
press bench Yeah, this is like three oh eight. Yeah,

344
00:16:43,360 --> 00:16:46,919
that was my I opened with like two eighty six

345
00:16:47,240 --> 00:16:49,759
and jumped to three oh eight and then I went

346
00:16:49,840 --> 00:16:51,240
for three thirty and I didn't get it.

347
00:16:51,759 --> 00:16:55,480
Speaker 1: Okay, but that's all right, three hundred and thirty pounds

348
00:16:55,799 --> 00:16:57,039
on bench press.

349
00:16:57,360 --> 00:16:59,639
Speaker 3: I think I hit two hundred once and I was

350
00:16:59,720 --> 00:17:01,440
very out of myself and.

351
00:17:01,600 --> 00:17:05,160
Speaker 1: That was probably your age.

352
00:17:05,200 --> 00:17:06,759
Speaker 4: I think I was younger than you at that time.

353
00:17:06,960 --> 00:17:08,400
Speaker 3: You could do it again. I mean, I saw a

354
00:17:08,440 --> 00:17:10,319
guy out there who he was like.

355
00:17:10,640 --> 00:17:12,519
Speaker 1: I didn't even see him compete though, what was it?

356
00:17:12,559 --> 00:17:14,039
I never saw him up on that place.

357
00:17:14,079 --> 00:17:16,240
Speaker 3: I saw him there. I don't know if he actually

358
00:17:16,279 --> 00:17:18,400
competed or not, or if he was just there in solidarity,

359
00:17:18,440 --> 00:17:21,839
but there was there was an older and older man there. Yeah,

360
00:17:21,880 --> 00:17:24,000
and he looked like he was ready to do it.

361
00:17:27,640 --> 00:17:32,359
Speaker 1: And then the deadlift was the one that sort of

362
00:17:32,440 --> 00:17:33,359
set you over.

363
00:17:34,680 --> 00:17:37,960
Speaker 4: Did you lift more than anybody in the room? No?

364
00:17:39,519 --> 00:17:41,359
Who was what was one guy lifting?

365
00:17:42,880 --> 00:17:46,359
Speaker 3: I know that the guy who was in the hundred

366
00:17:46,440 --> 00:17:49,599
kila weight class that went immediately after me, I think

367
00:17:49,640 --> 00:17:52,079
he pulled heavier than I did. And I know the

368
00:17:52,160 --> 00:17:57,880
guy who who was in the other age group but

369
00:17:58,279 --> 00:18:01,079
same weight class, pulled heavier than I did.

370
00:18:01,319 --> 00:18:02,480
Speaker 4: What were you pulling?

371
00:18:03,319 --> 00:18:10,319
Speaker 3: I ended with five hundred and fifty seven, like around

372
00:18:10,440 --> 00:18:11,440
about five sixty.

373
00:18:11,680 --> 00:18:15,200
Speaker 1: Yeah, and those guys were deadlifting more than that?

374
00:18:15,400 --> 00:18:15,640
Speaker 4: Yep.

375
00:18:16,359 --> 00:18:18,960
Speaker 3: Yeah, I mean well, I mean they're you know, they're bigger,

376
00:18:19,039 --> 00:18:22,640
they're sixpier, like they're probably well into the sixes.

377
00:18:22,839 --> 00:18:28,039
Speaker 4: Maybe really good. God, that's uh, that's crazy. Uh.

378
00:18:29,640 --> 00:18:34,200
Speaker 1: If your future kids or grandkids asked you about this,

379
00:18:34,440 --> 00:18:36,440
you still wear that metal around, grandpa?

380
00:18:36,480 --> 00:18:38,160
Speaker 4: Why are you walking around with the metals? So on?

381
00:18:38,720 --> 00:18:40,599
Why does this wind matter?

382
00:18:40,680 --> 00:18:40,720
Speaker 3: What?

383
00:18:40,880 --> 00:18:43,039
Speaker 1: What story would you tell them about the moment?

384
00:18:43,839 --> 00:18:51,039
Speaker 3: Honestly, I would just tell them, you know, don't go

385
00:18:51,119 --> 00:18:54,599
into things like this expecting to win, but if you do,

386
00:18:55,160 --> 00:18:59,359
you know, enjoy it. I Mean, like I said, this

387
00:18:59,519 --> 00:19:02,920
was just the thing for me to do to see

388
00:19:03,039 --> 00:19:07,480
how much I had really progressed since getting hurt, and

389
00:19:07,519 --> 00:19:10,000
I wanted to see, like how can I bounce back?

390
00:19:10,240 --> 00:19:14,720
Speaker 1: Yeah, that's amazing. I think that there's a great discipline

391
00:19:14,759 --> 00:19:18,200
to this. I think it's it's a it's a wonderful thing.

392
00:19:18,279 --> 00:19:19,759
Speaker 4: Probably a great stress reliever.

393
00:19:20,960 --> 00:19:25,319
Speaker 1: And uh yeah, because powerlifting is about lifting weight, right,

394
00:19:25,359 --> 00:19:27,079
I mean that that's what that's about.

395
00:19:27,160 --> 00:19:28,599
Speaker 4: But but what wait?

396
00:19:28,720 --> 00:19:32,240
Speaker 1: Outside the gym, do you think this sport has helped

397
00:19:32,279 --> 00:19:35,559
you kind of move forward in life carry better in

398
00:19:35,599 --> 00:19:35,960
your life?

399
00:19:36,000 --> 00:19:39,519
Speaker 3: I would say so yeah. I mean I'm a huge

400
00:19:39,559 --> 00:19:44,039
advocate for people to go work out for more than

401
00:19:44,119 --> 00:19:48,119
just the physical health benefits, but also the mental health benefits.

402
00:19:48,160 --> 00:19:50,400
You got to think about true. I mean people talk

403
00:19:50,400 --> 00:19:53,359
about a runners high all the time. Yeah, yeah, that's cool,

404
00:19:53,400 --> 00:19:55,240
But do you know how good it feels to squat

405
00:19:55,240 --> 00:19:58,920
four hundred pounds and not die? It's awesome? Why doesn't

406
00:19:58,920 --> 00:20:03,319
everyone do that? But in all seriousness, I think, you know,

407
00:20:03,480 --> 00:20:07,599
having something to do consistently that you can get really

408
00:20:07,599 --> 00:20:10,640
good at that. It's everyone talks about having like a

409
00:20:10,680 --> 00:20:12,799
win in the morning, or like a win to start

410
00:20:12,799 --> 00:20:13,119
your day.

411
00:20:13,319 --> 00:20:13,720
Speaker 4: Yeah.

412
00:20:14,240 --> 00:20:16,400
Speaker 3: You know, some people say, oh, I make my bed

413
00:20:16,519 --> 00:20:19,240
every single day so that I can have a win

414
00:20:19,480 --> 00:20:20,119
for that day.

415
00:20:20,240 --> 00:20:22,880
Speaker 4: Yeah. Cool, Do you do that? Do you make your

416
00:20:22,880 --> 00:20:23,440
bed every day?

417
00:20:23,480 --> 00:20:26,799
Speaker 3: I doubt it, No, I doubt But what I say

418
00:20:27,000 --> 00:20:28,279
when I'm saying that.

419
00:20:28,119 --> 00:20:29,200
Speaker 4: What I mean, I know what you mean.

420
00:20:29,279 --> 00:20:31,720
Speaker 1: I know, like when you go to this something you accomplished,

421
00:20:32,240 --> 00:20:35,440
there's a satisfaction to that. That That's why a lot

422
00:20:35,480 --> 00:20:37,759
of times I don't know that I was always great

423
00:20:37,799 --> 00:20:40,559
at it, but I would say things like you know,

424
00:20:40,680 --> 00:20:43,039
on radio, I didn't know.

425
00:20:42,880 --> 00:20:44,000
Speaker 4: How I did. At the end of the day.

426
00:20:44,000 --> 00:20:46,319
Speaker 1: I could walk out of there going, oh, great show today.

427
00:20:46,519 --> 00:20:48,640
It could have been a steaming pile of shit, and

428
00:20:48,640 --> 00:20:50,880
I wouldn't know because the ratings didn't come out for

429
00:20:50,880 --> 00:20:54,119
three months. There was nothing tangible. But if I hung

430
00:20:54,160 --> 00:20:57,200
a door, like when we replaced the door in your bedroom,

431
00:20:57,519 --> 00:21:00,319
like that kind of thing was a tangible thing, and

432
00:21:00,319 --> 00:21:03,119
there was satisfaction to doing that, especially when it was

433
00:21:03,160 --> 00:21:05,000
an older house and I had settled and the door

434
00:21:05,200 --> 00:21:07,039
was all fucked up and I had a plan it

435
00:21:07,119 --> 00:21:10,359
was great, like it was. Those were satisfying things, and

436
00:21:10,400 --> 00:21:15,759
I think that we need to do more satisfying things.

437
00:21:15,839 --> 00:21:17,319
Speaker 4: There's a lot of talk, you'll hear.

438
00:21:19,119 --> 00:21:22,440
Speaker 1: God, I feel like so many people just talking in

439
00:21:22,640 --> 00:21:27,279
circles or platitudes. Often, Like I saw something about like

440
00:21:27,440 --> 00:21:30,519
churches coming together and we're gonna tear down walls.

441
00:21:30,160 --> 00:21:32,160
Speaker 4: And we're it's every it's every.

442
00:21:33,359 --> 00:21:37,440
Speaker 1: Fucking you know, platitude and we're gonna tear down these

443
00:21:37,440 --> 00:21:38,839
walls and we're gonna bring the creat.

444
00:21:38,920 --> 00:21:42,200
Speaker 4: But it's not. It's not you're you're speaking in hypotheticals.

445
00:21:42,200 --> 00:21:42,519
You're not.

446
00:21:42,720 --> 00:21:46,799
Speaker 1: There's no tangible plan there to actually do it. And

447
00:21:46,839 --> 00:21:50,440
I think the only way to fix everything is to

448
00:21:50,440 --> 00:21:53,559
fix the individual first. And you fix the individual by

449
00:21:53,559 --> 00:21:56,319
building self esteem. And you build self esteem by being

450
00:21:56,440 --> 00:21:59,599
by accomplishing things and feeling good and it's not bullshit

451
00:21:59,640 --> 00:22:01,960
stuff or blown sunshine up your ass and telling you

452
00:22:01,960 --> 00:22:02,960
you're great now.

453
00:22:03,000 --> 00:22:04,039
Speaker 4: I hear people.

454
00:22:03,880 --> 00:22:07,359
Speaker 1: Always bitch about participation trophies and all that sort of thing.

455
00:22:07,440 --> 00:22:09,720
I don't have a problem with a participation trophy as

456
00:22:09,759 --> 00:22:14,160
long as we're still giving somebody MVP most Improved on

457
00:22:14,519 --> 00:22:18,640
top of the participation trophy to show you that, Hey,

458
00:22:19,480 --> 00:22:20,880
thanks for showing up every day.

459
00:22:21,240 --> 00:22:23,480
Speaker 3: That was great. Here's a participation trophy.

460
00:22:23,920 --> 00:22:27,119
Speaker 1: This guy did a little extra and really improved and

461
00:22:27,119 --> 00:22:29,200
he worked on his game. You can get there too.

462
00:22:29,319 --> 00:22:32,359
And here's this and that to me is something that

463
00:22:32,400 --> 00:22:35,839
you can kind of work toward. And I think is

464
00:22:36,240 --> 00:22:38,359
really important. And when I see things like even in

465
00:22:39,599 --> 00:22:42,079
like in the cities and things where we talk about, oh,

466
00:22:42,119 --> 00:22:45,960
we got these problems, a little pride, a little pride.

467
00:22:46,079 --> 00:22:48,960
Leo's Bakery and Deli on des Match Drive in East Rochester.

468
00:22:49,000 --> 00:22:51,880

506
00:24:52,559 --> 00:24:55,359
I don't know, but I'm yelling at the clouds like

507
00:24:55,359 --> 00:24:56,759
an old man, so it doesn't matter.

508
00:24:57,000 --> 00:24:59,960
Speaker 3: I get it. I will say I do slightly disagree

509
00:25:00,200 --> 00:25:03,920
with the participation trophy thing, because that's what a team

510
00:25:03,960 --> 00:25:06,599
parties for. If you're going to celebrate the end of it.

511
00:25:06,640 --> 00:25:07,599
Like if you're looking.

512
00:25:07,359 --> 00:25:10,000
Speaker 1: At like, well, i'm talking about little kids. I'm not

513
00:25:10,039 --> 00:25:12,200
talking about like track and stuff like that. When you're

514
00:25:12,200 --> 00:25:15,680
in college. I'm talking about that too, if you're talking like.

515
00:25:15,960 --> 00:25:19,039
Speaker 3: T ball or Little League. I don't think it sends

516
00:25:19,039 --> 00:25:22,240
the right message to give everybody an award for showing up.

517
00:25:22,519 --> 00:25:25,480
I think that's what an end of year celebrations. Yeah,

518
00:25:25,799 --> 00:25:27,000
you should just do Remember we.

519
00:25:26,920 --> 00:25:30,519
Speaker 4: Hadbe remember the Little League party. We had everybody's jumping

520
00:25:30,519 --> 00:25:30,960
in the pool.

521
00:25:31,000 --> 00:25:32,119
Speaker 3: Oh my god, I loved it.

522
00:25:32,400 --> 00:25:35,799
Speaker 1: Yeah, but what's his name's dad had everybody jumping as

523
00:25:35,799 --> 00:25:36,799
far as they could or something.

524
00:25:38,079 --> 00:25:39,160
Speaker 4: I forget that I forgot.

525
00:25:39,839 --> 00:25:44,039
Speaker 3: But I think with that, you know, well's that's what

526
00:25:44,079 --> 00:25:46,960
a celebration with the team is for. You don't need

527
00:25:46,960 --> 00:25:50,400
to have everyone get a trophy because then it's like, oh, cool,

528
00:25:50,440 --> 00:25:53,039
we all did this, so we all get an award. No,

529
00:25:53,359 --> 00:25:56,599
like you all did it. It's the ones who work

530
00:25:56,680 --> 00:25:58,200
the hard. It's the ones who do the best to

531
00:25:58,400 --> 00:26:01,000
get who should get like MVP. The ones who win

532
00:26:01,200 --> 00:26:04,759
should get the first, second, third places. If you're gonna

533
00:26:04,799 --> 00:26:08,119
give somebody an award for showing up like that's I

534
00:26:08,160 --> 00:26:11,079
think that's something you can do to just celebrate as

535
00:26:11,119 --> 00:26:13,880
a team. You know, you guys worked together to show

536
00:26:14,000 --> 00:26:17,960
up every day. That's something on the individual that shouldn't be. Hey,

537
00:26:17,960 --> 00:26:19,559
thanks for showing up. Here's a trophy.

538
00:26:19,920 --> 00:26:23,759
Speaker 1: Now I understand kind of what you're saying. I will

539
00:26:23,880 --> 00:26:28,759
say I have a different thought on that. And it'll

540
00:26:28,799 --> 00:26:30,960
be interesting when you have kids and stuff and I

541
00:26:30,960 --> 00:26:34,680
don't know where things will go. But I don't mind

542
00:26:34,799 --> 00:26:38,000
when it's seven year olds or six year old soccer,

543
00:26:38,359 --> 00:26:40,400
and every kid gets a trophy and they can have

544
00:26:40,440 --> 00:26:43,720
a little bit of pride in that if we also say,

545
00:26:44,200 --> 00:26:48,680
but you know what, Tyler was amazing this year. Tyler

546
00:26:48,720 --> 00:26:51,640
scored the most goals on the team. Tyler was really

547
00:26:51,640 --> 00:26:54,839
our most valuable player. Tyler, you also get this and

548
00:26:55,119 --> 00:26:58,000
the only and maybe they're too young there to even

549
00:26:58,039 --> 00:27:02,200
get it. But at some point, and I agree with you,

550
00:27:02,279 --> 00:27:05,640
like after twelve years old, let's let's at least there's.

551
00:27:05,400 --> 00:27:07,039
Speaker 4: Got to be cut off tour like ten.

552
00:27:07,359 --> 00:27:10,599
Speaker 3: Yeah, well, most of these these leagues go to twelve.

553
00:27:10,640 --> 00:27:11,759
I'm thinking like fourth grade.

554
00:27:11,880 --> 00:27:14,960
Speaker 1: But I don't mind that, like I would say Little League.

555
00:27:15,039 --> 00:27:18,160
Like I remember Little League. There was MVP and Most

556
00:27:18,200 --> 00:27:22,279
Improved Player and stuff, and I remember and there was

557
00:27:22,319 --> 00:27:25,279
no other trophy, right, but it gave you something to

558
00:27:25,279 --> 00:27:29,799
strive for. I can even remember. Here's one. And this

559
00:27:29,839 --> 00:27:33,920
is where I don't know if these things are genetic

560
00:27:34,079 --> 00:27:37,039
or not, but when I was in sixth grade, they

561
00:27:37,079 --> 00:27:40,839
started handing out the Academic Achievement Ward and the Good

562
00:27:40,880 --> 00:27:44,359
Citizen Award, Okay, And I remember going home and telling

563
00:27:44,839 --> 00:27:48,160
Grandpa Bill, and he said to me, you get the

564
00:27:48,160 --> 00:27:50,720
good Citizen Award for blowing your nose and making the

565
00:27:50,759 --> 00:27:52,759
tissue fall in the garbage. You know that kind of

566
00:27:52,759 --> 00:27:55,880
sh he goes the Academic Award. So they gave one

567
00:27:55,920 --> 00:27:59,519
out and a girl got it. And this is terrible,

568
00:27:59,559 --> 00:28:02,480
but this is my head would work. I go, how

569
00:28:02,519 --> 00:28:06,960
did she get it? She's dumb, like come on, So

570
00:28:07,039 --> 00:28:11,920
I go, there's no way. And so I next week. Man,

571
00:28:12,000 --> 00:28:15,319
I was determined and I got it, and then I

572
00:28:15,319 --> 00:28:16,920
took my foot off the guests because I proved to

573
00:28:16,960 --> 00:28:19,079
myself that I could do it and I didn't need

574
00:28:19,119 --> 00:28:21,480
to do it again. Other people were winning the Academic

575
00:28:21,519 --> 00:28:24,200
Achievement Award like every week, right, piling them up. I

576
00:28:24,200 --> 00:28:26,480
didn't give a shit, But that to me is a

577
00:28:26,519 --> 00:28:29,000
bad way to be when I look back at it.

578
00:28:29,039 --> 00:28:31,720
Speaker 3: But I could always go, I can do this.

579
00:28:31,880 --> 00:28:33,640
Speaker 4: I know I can do it. I'm going to prove it.

580
00:28:33,960 --> 00:28:36,480
Speaker 3: And then once I proved it, it was like, Okay, I'm done.

581
00:28:36,799 --> 00:28:37,559
What's next.

582
00:28:37,559 --> 00:28:39,839
Speaker 1: I'm bored. I don't need to do the Academic Achievement Ward.

583
00:28:39,839 --> 00:28:42,079
I've already done it. Well I did for one week,

584
00:28:42,640 --> 00:28:45,160
you know what I'm saying. And that's where the consistency

585
00:28:45,200 --> 00:28:47,680
stuff in everything is so important.

586
00:28:47,880 --> 00:28:50,400
Speaker 3: And you know, I think to relate it back to

587
00:28:52,119 --> 00:28:56,240
powerlifting and all that, I get exactly where you're coming

588
00:28:56,279 --> 00:28:59,519
from with the academic achievement award story, and it's very

589
00:28:59,519 --> 00:29:02,400
similar to think. The difference is like if you want

590
00:29:02,400 --> 00:29:04,960
to apply that to powerlifting, like, yeah, cool, I want

591
00:29:05,000 --> 00:29:06,880
in this way class on this day, in this age

592
00:29:06,880 --> 00:29:11,240
bracket would these numbers? Well if I did that, what

593
00:29:11,319 --> 00:29:15,079
if I did it again? Yeah, but with better numbers.

594
00:29:15,200 --> 00:29:16,680
It's it's it's a maturity thing.

595
00:29:16,799 --> 00:29:18,519
Speaker 1: I think at that point you're a little more mature

596
00:29:18,519 --> 00:29:20,200
and a little more aware.

597
00:29:20,599 --> 00:29:23,799
Speaker 3: But I like Chase. I love that you're chasing another

598
00:29:23,839 --> 00:29:26,960
goal because yes, it's the same award, it's a similer thing,

599
00:29:28,240 --> 00:29:30,680
but you're doing it better than last time.

600
00:29:30,839 --> 00:29:31,400
Speaker 4: Yeah.

601
00:29:31,440 --> 00:29:34,319
Speaker 1: I think one of the big things for anybody if

602
00:29:34,319 --> 00:29:38,039
you were to apply this stuff to life. Right, you

603
00:29:38,119 --> 00:29:41,319
were this skinny guy in high school who looked up

604
00:29:41,319 --> 00:29:44,359
to these people. You are not that skinny guy anymore.

605
00:29:44,400 --> 00:29:46,480
But it was through consistent work that got you there.

606
00:29:47,160 --> 00:29:52,920
And I will always say to people it you. You

607
00:29:52,960 --> 00:29:55,920
can't get from Rochester to Buffalo without taking the trip,

608
00:29:56,640 --> 00:30:00,640
without taking the journey. Now, there's many ways to get

609
00:30:00,640 --> 00:30:03,519
from Buffalo. The easiest way is ninety, but you can

610
00:30:03,559 --> 00:30:05,759
do back roads, you can do different ways. You can

611
00:30:05,839 --> 00:30:10,519
veer off here, right, all kinds of ways. Which way

612
00:30:10,680 --> 00:30:13,400
is going to be the easiest? And the like I

613
00:30:13,440 --> 00:30:15,160
always say when we think of.

614
00:30:15,160 --> 00:30:17,599
Speaker 4: Like grinding and grind it out and blah blah blah,

615
00:30:17,640 --> 00:30:17,960
and it.

616
00:30:18,200 --> 00:30:20,960
Speaker 1: Kind of makes it ugly, right, And I live that

617
00:30:21,000 --> 00:30:23,799
way a lot, and I think you don't have to

618
00:30:23,920 --> 00:30:26,839
do that. I think you can have a different mentality

619
00:30:27,359 --> 00:30:29,799
and still get there and be happy.

620
00:30:29,839 --> 00:30:33,000
Speaker 4: And I will say the best way.

621
00:30:33,000 --> 00:30:35,559
Speaker 1: In my mind to do that is if I put

622
00:30:35,559 --> 00:30:40,119
in my GPS how to get to Buffalo. Do I

623
00:30:40,160 --> 00:30:43,039
worry about not getting to Buffalo? No, I just think

624
00:30:43,039 --> 00:30:45,000
about the next turn I have to make. That's what

625
00:30:45,039 --> 00:30:47,119
I think about, And I go, this should be the

626
00:30:47,160 --> 00:30:49,200
same thing in life. I want to get here. I

627
00:30:49,240 --> 00:30:51,799
trust I'm going to get there. What's my next turn?

628
00:30:51,960 --> 00:30:54,160
What's my next turn? And then you know what I'm saying,

629
00:30:54,200 --> 00:30:58,000
with the destination in mind, but knowing that it doesn't

630
00:30:58,000 --> 00:31:01,599
have to be this grind, I'll lighten it up here

631
00:31:01,599 --> 00:31:05,640
a little bit, because I always these conversations, all these

632
00:31:05,640 --> 00:31:07,880
conversations turn it back into the lectures you used to

633
00:31:07,880 --> 00:31:08,920
get in the car from McQuaid.

634
00:31:09,440 --> 00:31:10,640
Speaker 3: I'm not surprised, but.

635
00:31:12,920 --> 00:31:13,440
Speaker 4: You're fine.

636
00:31:13,519 --> 00:31:15,799
Speaker 3: I do want to say I think I think I

637
00:31:15,880 --> 00:31:18,000
didn't really address a point you brought up earlier about

638
00:31:18,039 --> 00:31:20,400
what's what goes through my head?

639
00:31:20,680 --> 00:31:21,039
Speaker 4: Yeah?

640
00:31:21,119 --> 00:31:23,319
Speaker 1: Yeah, what goes through your head when you're walking up there,

641
00:31:23,359 --> 00:31:27,079
because it's like there's music, nothing.

642
00:31:27,480 --> 00:31:30,640
Speaker 3: That's the thing. It's the same approach I had with track.

643
00:31:30,720 --> 00:31:32,960
It's the same approach I have with the lifting. It's

644
00:31:33,200 --> 00:31:35,640
the same approach I have with everything. Is when I'm

645
00:31:35,839 --> 00:31:40,160
right like I've got my heart's racing, my head's pounding,

646
00:31:40,359 --> 00:31:44,279
I'm hearing all this music, I'm hearing people yelling, and

647
00:31:44,880 --> 00:31:46,799
all I want. All I can do in that moment

648
00:31:47,000 --> 00:31:55,279
is just breathe and tune everything out and then it's

649
00:31:55,359 --> 00:31:57,319
just me and the weight, and that's it. That's all

650
00:31:57,319 --> 00:32:00,160
you gotta do. Once you're there, it's a weight you've

651
00:32:00,200 --> 00:32:04,240
either done before, you've never done before, or you're just

652
00:32:04,400 --> 00:32:06,079
literally under there and you're like, I'm either going to

653
00:32:06,559 --> 00:32:08,960
look like a little bit and not get this and

654
00:32:09,039 --> 00:32:12,119
possibly get hurt, or I'm gonna get this and it's

655
00:32:12,119 --> 00:32:15,599
gonna be awesome. And all you do, that's all I do.

656
00:32:15,720 --> 00:32:20,440
I just breathe, clear my head and just get under it,

657
00:32:21,319 --> 00:32:21,920
and I'm done.

658
00:32:22,039 --> 00:32:22,440
Speaker 4: That's it.

659
00:32:22,759 --> 00:32:26,039
Speaker 3: Like, you can't have any thoughts going through your head

660
00:32:26,039 --> 00:32:29,119
because if you're thinking about it the entire time you're

661
00:32:29,119 --> 00:32:30,839
trying to do it, you're gonna fuck.

662
00:32:30,680 --> 00:32:36,160
Speaker 1: It up, right, almost you're putting some resistance in there.

663
00:32:36,279 --> 00:32:37,400
Speaker 4: Yeah, yeah, well.

664
00:32:37,279 --> 00:32:40,599
Speaker 3: I mean again, you can ask a lot of I mean,

665
00:32:40,599 --> 00:32:42,680
it really just comes down to what you're doing. But

666
00:32:42,759 --> 00:32:44,200
a lot I feel like a lot of people would

667
00:32:44,240 --> 00:32:48,039
agree when it comes to something like that. You can't

668
00:32:48,200 --> 00:32:51,200
think you need to turn your brain off and you

669
00:32:51,279 --> 00:32:54,519
just need to you just need to be automatic. You

670
00:32:54,640 --> 00:32:57,480
already know what you have to do. Pretty much.

671
00:32:57,920 --> 00:33:02,720
Speaker 4: It very zen, Yeah, right in a way, right, something

672
00:33:02,720 --> 00:33:03,559
that I've always.

673
00:33:03,400 --> 00:33:05,440
Speaker 3: I mean, I don't know if it's that zen when

674
00:33:05,440 --> 00:33:09,640
you're like, when you've probably had three to four hundred

675
00:33:09,680 --> 00:33:13,079
milligrams of caffeine and are ripping smelling salts behind the stage.

676
00:33:13,079 --> 00:33:14,720
Speaker 4: Why do you do all that stuff?

677
00:33:15,319 --> 00:33:20,279
Speaker 3: Well, caffeine is a legal performance enhancer. Everyone will tell

678
00:33:20,319 --> 00:33:24,319
you that. Yeah, so you know it helps perform. There's

679
00:33:24,519 --> 00:33:27,440
obviously tons of studies out there that show that it

680
00:33:27,440 --> 00:33:32,839
does boost performance. Right, But the smelling salts. Thing is

681
00:33:32,880 --> 00:33:34,880
more of just a thing that some people say is

682
00:33:35,200 --> 00:33:38,359
some people say it's bullshit. I disagree. I've seen it

683
00:33:38,599 --> 00:33:42,279
wake up people who are blackout drunk. You've seen those

684
00:33:42,319 --> 00:33:44,920
videos where like they'll break the little ampulse under somebody's nose.

685
00:33:45,279 --> 00:33:49,240
They're passed out, and then they immediately come back. I

686
00:33:49,359 --> 00:33:53,200
use that because it just helps me breathe in a

687
00:33:53,240 --> 00:33:57,880
lot more, and it just helps me dial in so

688
00:33:57,920 --> 00:34:01,480
that way, when I go out there, I'm not thinking,

689
00:34:02,039 --> 00:34:05,160
like I can just shut my brain off and me

690
00:34:05,240 --> 00:34:05,599
and the way.

691
00:34:05,720 --> 00:34:06,000
Speaker 4: That's it.

692
00:34:06,279 --> 00:34:12,440
Speaker 1: I always found that in uh racing, where like if

693
00:34:12,440 --> 00:34:14,880
you're on a drag strip and you, you know, doing

694
00:34:14,880 --> 00:34:15,519
a quarter.

695
00:34:15,360 --> 00:34:17,840
Speaker 3: Mile and I mean, do you think that guy's thinking

696
00:34:17,920 --> 00:34:22,719
about you? Guys thinking about it with the car, I'm

697
00:34:22,760 --> 00:34:24,840
saying in me and of the track, let's go.

698
00:34:24,960 --> 00:34:28,519
Speaker 4: That's it. I've done it. When I when I when

699
00:34:28,519 --> 00:34:30,199
I've done it. That's what it is.

700
00:34:30,440 --> 00:34:33,920
Speaker 1: You hit a certain speed and you're not thinking, I mean,

701
00:34:33,960 --> 00:34:35,719
I may I guess you are because you're trying to

702
00:34:35,800 --> 00:34:36,840
keep it on the track.

703
00:34:37,039 --> 00:34:39,280
Speaker 4: You know, it's very easy to blow out and go off.

704
00:34:39,559 --> 00:34:45,119
Speaker 1: But there's something that is so adrenaline pumping that, like

705
00:34:45,239 --> 00:34:48,039
I it takes It would take me the rest of

706
00:34:48,079 --> 00:34:50,239
the day if I did it in the morning to

707
00:34:50,480 --> 00:34:53,880
actually bring my adrenaline down. I'm so jacked. And I

708
00:34:53,920 --> 00:34:56,039
think the same thing with like ball players and stuff,

709
00:34:56,039 --> 00:34:59,239
like football players. I remember Marcellus Wiley telling me he

710
00:34:59,320 --> 00:35:03,079
used to go up to Canada to the casinos after

711
00:35:03,079 --> 00:35:05,840
a one o'clock game because you were so hyped up.

712
00:35:06,440 --> 00:35:09,360
And I don't know if that's a thing.

713
00:35:09,440 --> 00:35:10,199
Speaker 4: What do you do?

714
00:35:10,239 --> 00:35:12,360
Speaker 1: You have a hype song or anything, a song that

715
00:35:12,400 --> 00:35:14,480
hypes you up before you go out there, or you

716
00:35:14,480 --> 00:35:15,360
don't listen to music.

717
00:35:15,559 --> 00:35:19,440
Speaker 3: No, I do. I listened to a bunch of different songs.

718
00:35:20,079 --> 00:35:24,039
It's anything from like early two thousands of rock to

719
00:35:25,079 --> 00:35:32,320
like metal to metal. Yeah really yeah? Like who a

720
00:35:32,360 --> 00:35:33,199
lot of Lincoln Park?

721
00:35:33,480 --> 00:35:34,840
Speaker 4: Oh okay are they metal?

722
00:35:35,320 --> 00:35:35,960
Speaker 3: Kind of yeah?

723
00:35:36,039 --> 00:35:37,119
Speaker 4: I guess they're a little heavier.

724
00:35:37,320 --> 00:35:40,920
Speaker 1: What's the weirdest thing you've ever eaten right before or

725
00:35:41,000 --> 00:35:41,800
after training?

726
00:35:42,280 --> 00:35:46,719
Speaker 4: Do you ever have anything weird? Yeah?

727
00:35:46,800 --> 00:35:53,519
Speaker 3: Yeah, I mean one thing that I've I guess, like

728
00:35:54,360 --> 00:35:57,000
I add dextros to my protein shakes that I have

729
00:35:57,199 --> 00:36:02,239
after training because I need to have like a carb

730
00:36:02,360 --> 00:36:05,360
to help, you know, to help with carrying over the

731
00:36:05,400 --> 00:36:09,440
protein from the shake. So a simple sugar to make

732
00:36:09,480 --> 00:36:12,800
it easier for it to pass through. Yeah, so it's

733
00:36:12,960 --> 00:36:17,599
literally just like a scoop of corn sugar my shake. Yeah.

734
00:36:17,679 --> 00:36:22,360
Speaker 1: Really. Yeah, Like dietary wise, because I was looking I

735
00:36:22,440 --> 00:36:26,119
actually looked up while because there was some downtime yesterday

736
00:36:26,159 --> 00:36:29,519
doing that meat, and I looked up the anti inflammatory diet.

737
00:36:29,960 --> 00:36:33,719
I was reading that stuff, and I mean, how much

738
00:36:34,239 --> 00:36:36,360
how important is diet for you overall?

739
00:36:36,960 --> 00:36:40,480
Speaker 3: Very Yeah, I mean it's even outside of this just

740
00:36:40,559 --> 00:36:43,480
to stay healthy, you know, like with all my food

741
00:36:43,519 --> 00:36:46,480
allergies and stuff on top of everything else, diet is

742
00:36:46,639 --> 00:36:47,920
extremely important.

743
00:36:48,000 --> 00:36:49,800
Speaker 4: You had a lot of food allergies. Jordan was like

744
00:36:49,840 --> 00:36:50,960
when he was born, he.

745
00:36:51,079 --> 00:36:55,519
Speaker 1: Was a losing weight, projectile vomiting back in the hospital.

746
00:36:56,039 --> 00:36:58,920
We had to get hyperallergenic formula from Britain.

747
00:36:59,280 --> 00:37:02,519
Speaker 3: I was based that. I was pretty much bubble boy,

748
00:37:02,880 --> 00:37:04,239
Yeah kind of.

749
00:37:04,320 --> 00:37:07,360
Speaker 1: I mean I would say it's it's a little dramatic,

750
00:37:07,400 --> 00:37:11,079
but yeah, I guess you could say that if you

751
00:37:11,119 --> 00:37:14,760
could do only one lift, what is your favorite deadlift?

752
00:37:15,440 --> 00:37:16,960
Speaker 4: The deadlift is your favorite? Why?

753
00:37:17,039 --> 00:37:18,719
Speaker 3: It's the one I'm the best at. It's the one

754
00:37:18,719 --> 00:37:20,719
I've been doing the longest and it's the one. It's

755
00:37:20,760 --> 00:37:23,960
my strongest lift. I think it's the coolest out of

756
00:37:23,960 --> 00:37:24,639
the three too.

757
00:37:25,400 --> 00:37:29,880
Speaker 1: Yeah yeah, Okay, what hurts more? Leg day or heartbreak?

758
00:37:33,199 --> 00:37:34,159
Speaker 4: Nothing? I don't know.

759
00:37:34,360 --> 00:37:37,280
Speaker 3: Yeah, you know, I haven't really had I haven't really

760
00:37:37,280 --> 00:37:40,400
had much heartbreak. Okay, alright, so I have to say

761
00:37:40,480 --> 00:37:41,239
leg day for now.

762
00:37:41,400 --> 00:37:44,760
Speaker 1: But do you ever want to armor? If you could

763
00:37:44,840 --> 00:37:46,440
arm wrestle like a celebrity, would you want to take

764
00:37:46,480 --> 00:37:47,360
on the rock or somebody?

765
00:37:47,480 --> 00:37:48,280
Speaker 4: See who you could beat?

766
00:37:48,840 --> 00:37:54,239
Speaker 3: Jesus, that could be fun. I would probably not win

767
00:37:54,480 --> 00:37:55,280
when I'd do.

768
00:37:55,320 --> 00:38:03,760
Speaker 1: It, you would, Yeah. So growing up I was on

769
00:38:03,800 --> 00:38:09,840
the radio for all your life pretty much, and people

770
00:38:09,920 --> 00:38:13,199
would recognize it. How did I don't know, How did

771
00:38:13,199 --> 00:38:16,039
it feel when people would say things? And did you

772
00:38:16,119 --> 00:38:20,360
ever feel differently of me because of that?

773
00:38:20,639 --> 00:38:24,559
Speaker 4: I don't know, No, really, people would recognize.

774
00:38:24,719 --> 00:38:28,039
Speaker 3: I mean it was always weird because I'd be like,

775
00:38:28,719 --> 00:38:32,559
who are you? And then I'd realize very quickly, oh,

776
00:38:32,639 --> 00:38:36,119
you don't actually know us. You just know what my

777
00:38:36,239 --> 00:38:39,199
dad talks about. And at that point it was more

778
00:38:39,199 --> 00:38:42,119
of just a you gotta be careful about how you

779
00:38:42,159 --> 00:38:45,880
carry yourself type deal, because anyone could call in and

780
00:38:45,960 --> 00:38:49,880
say anything and be like, hey, Bill, your kid's an asshole,

781
00:38:50,360 --> 00:38:54,000
like and just say some story about me being a dick,

782
00:38:54,239 --> 00:38:56,800
and I would have no idea who this person is,

783
00:38:57,880 --> 00:38:59,920
So you know, that was something I had to really

784
00:39:00,800 --> 00:39:01,880
keep in the back of my head.

785
00:39:02,800 --> 00:39:05,960
Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, I I that's true. I think there was

786
00:39:06,000 --> 00:39:07,760
even maybe even talked about a little bit.

787
00:39:07,840 --> 00:39:09,079
Speaker 4: It was right, It was by.

788
00:39:09,239 --> 00:39:12,559
Speaker 3: It was drilled into my head by you and especially

789
00:39:12,559 --> 00:39:13,000
by mom.

790
00:39:13,119 --> 00:39:13,480
Speaker 4: Mmmm.

791
00:39:14,159 --> 00:39:17,880
Speaker 3: Like I mean Mom and I we'd be at Wegman's

792
00:39:17,920 --> 00:39:20,679
grocery shopping when I was like seven eight years old,

793
00:39:21,079 --> 00:39:24,039
and we would get stopped seven times before we even

794
00:39:24,119 --> 00:39:28,360
made it out of the parking lot because people would recognize.

795
00:39:27,920 --> 00:39:29,039
Speaker 4: Her because of you.

796
00:39:29,280 --> 00:39:32,199
Speaker 3: And you know that's just like I got used to it.

797
00:39:32,199 --> 00:39:34,159
It was kind of a normal thing. Yeah, but it

798
00:39:34,239 --> 00:39:36,119
was also like I knew it was weird.

799
00:39:36,760 --> 00:39:37,000
Speaker 4: Yeah.

800
00:39:37,039 --> 00:39:39,800
Speaker 3: I also just didn't care. I was just like, Okay,

801
00:39:39,880 --> 00:39:44,360
this is a part of what's It's just a part

802
00:39:44,360 --> 00:39:44,760
of the life.

803
00:39:44,800 --> 00:39:48,480
Speaker 4: I guess. Yeah, what's one memory of us from childhood.

804
00:39:48,039 --> 00:39:52,000
Speaker 1: That that still shapes how you see maybe me or

805
00:39:53,079 --> 00:39:53,599
the family.

806
00:39:54,679 --> 00:39:56,159
Speaker 4: Is there anything that any kind of.

807
00:39:59,760 --> 00:40:01,800
Speaker 3: I mean, and when when we say childhood how how

808
00:40:01,800 --> 00:40:02,719
far back are we going?

809
00:40:03,320 --> 00:40:06,280
Speaker 4: Well, I don't know. You tell me what whatever.

810
00:40:05,719 --> 00:40:08,480
Speaker 3: Sticks in your head, I don't have any I mean

811
00:40:09,239 --> 00:40:12,760
seeing you at all my my track meets in high school. Yeah,

812
00:40:12,800 --> 00:40:15,800
that stuck with me. Yeah, that's still kind of you know,

813
00:40:15,880 --> 00:40:19,840
hearing you talk about I mean, just to talk about

814
00:40:19,880 --> 00:40:24,559
staying consistent with sports, like constantly checking up and seeing

815
00:40:24,639 --> 00:40:28,880
like what I was thinking about and how practice would go,

816
00:40:29,119 --> 00:40:31,920
and some of the conversations we'd have on ride's home

817
00:40:32,039 --> 00:40:34,039
after practice that really shaped me.

818
00:40:34,440 --> 00:40:36,920
Speaker 1: Do you think so I did? I always thought sometimes

819
00:40:36,920 --> 00:40:39,880
I was. I was like going if that were me,

820
00:40:40,280 --> 00:40:44,440
I would you turn into Charlie Brown's dad, is Well, I.

821
00:40:44,360 --> 00:40:47,239
Speaker 3: Mean at that age, I didn't really have the same

822
00:40:47,280 --> 00:40:50,559
appreciation for it that I do now. Sure of course,

823
00:40:50,639 --> 00:40:53,960
you know, thinking back on it, like I still a

824
00:40:53,960 --> 00:40:56,119
lot of that stuff I still try and carry with me.

825
00:40:56,519 --> 00:41:00,599
So I'd say, even some of the stuff you did

826
00:41:00,599 --> 00:41:02,599
with me in sports when I was a little little kid,

827
00:41:03,639 --> 00:41:07,960
like just telling me that you got it was the

828
00:41:07,960 --> 00:41:10,039
same message no matter how old I was. You know,

829
00:41:10,079 --> 00:41:11,840
if you want to be the best at something, you

830
00:41:11,960 --> 00:41:15,360
got to keep doing it and be willing to work

831
00:41:15,400 --> 00:41:18,079
harder than anybody else, because there's going to be somebody

832
00:41:18,079 --> 00:41:20,960
out there who's going to show up and you don't.

833
00:41:21,039 --> 00:41:22,559
Speaker 4: It was so funny. I thought of that yesterday.

834
00:41:22,599 --> 00:41:24,880
Speaker 1: I'm watching this and I go, boy, somewhere there's And

835
00:41:24,920 --> 00:41:27,239
I didn't mean it for you. I just meant for anybody.

836
00:41:27,280 --> 00:41:30,840
Maybe even in that room, there's somebody stronger or better,

837
00:41:31,039 --> 00:41:32,840
or working harder at this.

838
00:41:33,360 --> 00:41:35,079
Speaker 4: And when we say work harder, like.

839
00:41:35,000 --> 00:41:37,679
Speaker 1: It's it's grind, it's it's just someone who's more consistent,

840
00:41:38,079 --> 00:41:41,000
maybe has a better training program, maybe is more discipline,

841
00:41:41,039 --> 00:41:42,920
maybe doesn't go out to the bar and where they're

842
00:41:42,920 --> 00:41:45,199
metal the night after me. You know, you understand I'm saying,

843
00:41:45,199 --> 00:41:46,760
and I don't meet it. I know I'm picking on

844
00:41:46,800 --> 00:41:49,960
you a little bit as a joke, but those were

845
00:41:50,000 --> 00:41:51,599
the things that I think are.

846
00:41:52,840 --> 00:41:53,440
Speaker 4: The edges.

847
00:41:53,519 --> 00:41:56,639
Speaker 1: And I think if you're gonna be great at something,

848
00:41:57,599 --> 00:42:00,639
you're it's gonna be boring. I think you're gonna have

849
00:42:00,679 --> 00:42:02,239
a kind of a boring life. You got to get

850
00:42:02,239 --> 00:42:04,239
to bed at a certain time, you got to do

851
00:42:04,760 --> 00:42:07,800
I mean, even guys in radio, you know, like I

852
00:42:07,800 --> 00:42:10,880
always laugh because now you know you saw this stuff

853
00:42:10,880 --> 00:42:14,840
with Howard Stern, Right, Howard stern. People were saying they

854
00:42:14,840 --> 00:42:17,480
don't want to taking him back his empires, crawling and

855
00:42:17,559 --> 00:42:20,400
blah blah blah. It's not that's not the way it was.

856
00:42:20,480 --> 00:42:24,039
But when Howard was in radio, everybody saw him as

857
00:42:24,039 --> 00:42:25,480
this rock and roll rebel.

858
00:42:26,079 --> 00:42:28,119
Speaker 4: He was one of the most disciplined people. He was

859
00:42:28,159 --> 00:42:31,239
in bed by eight o'clock at night every night.

860
00:42:32,199 --> 00:42:34,599
Speaker 3: And got up and got his eight hours of sleep.

861
00:42:34,360 --> 00:42:36,880
Speaker 4: And did his whole thing.

862
00:42:37,000 --> 00:42:39,800
Speaker 1: So to me, it was like that was the edge

863
00:42:39,840 --> 00:42:43,920
right discipline, discipline, discipline, and that takes a great discipline.

864
00:42:43,920 --> 00:42:45,519
Speaker 4: I never did that. I couldn't get to bed by

865
00:42:45,519 --> 00:42:46,039
eight o'clock.

866
00:42:46,119 --> 00:42:49,880

out at a younger, age LIKE i was doing it

963
00:47:35,440 --> 00:47:38,360
at that, age, sure BUT i wasn't as disciplined AS

00:47:42,440 --> 00:47:47,440
being more consistent and work toward it, now because then

966
00:47:48,199 --> 00:47:50,960

975
00:48:21,400 --> 00:48:24,239
LONG i remember reading an article In Rolling stone magazine

976
00:48:24,840 --> 00:48:29,760
ABOUT u two concert and the reporter Rights Tiger woods

977
00:48:29,760 --> 00:48:33,440
got backstage and asked to see the set lists so

978
00:48:33,480 --> 00:48:36,280
he could at know what songs were being because he

979
00:48:36,320 --> 00:48:39,119
wasn't familiar with them and he's a, celebrity and so

980
00:48:39,159 --> 00:48:41,199
they bring him, back and you, KNOW i don't Even

981
00:48:41,480 --> 00:48:44,000

there was room for nothing else to be that, great,

986
00:48:53,920 --> 00:48:57,119

1012
00:50:12,280 --> 00:50:15,000
is why they were able to do all this stuff

1013
00:50:15,239 --> 00:50:17,480
their entire lives and still be really. GOOD i, mean

1014

like still, grinding still at the top of their, game

1017
00:50:28,159 --> 00:50:32,440
still doing, amazing but doing the almost like the opposite

1018
00:50:32,519 --> 00:50:37,320
of what everyone everyone would hear about the, parties like the,

1019
00:50:37,440 --> 00:50:41,480
drinking the crazy. Antics but it's because they weren't so

1020
00:50:41,719 --> 00:50:44,400
rigid with themselves to where they would lose control and burn.

1021
00:50:44,519 --> 00:50:49,639
Out they're able to keep everything, tight keep themselves, disciplined

1022
00:50:49,679 --> 00:50:52,360
and still go out and have. Fun that's the kind

1023
00:50:52,440 --> 00:50:54,239
of thing THAT i like to. Do is, LIKE i

1024
00:50:54,280 --> 00:50:56,880
don't want to be the type of person who can't

1025
00:50:56,920 --> 00:50:59,360
have a life outside of What i'm. DOING i, mean

1026
00:50:59,440 --> 00:51:02,760
this is or, like this is just for. Fun i'm

1027
00:51:02,760 --> 00:51:03,679

1029
00:51:06,639 --> 00:51:11,960
Go could you become An olympic? Powerlifter it would take some,

1030
00:51:12,079 --> 00:51:14,880
time but. PROBABLY i mean it's a different it's a

1031
00:51:14,880 --> 00:51:18,960
slightly different. Discipline there's different lifts to, learn there's different.

1032
00:51:19,000 --> 00:51:23,480
Technique you're competing against a lot of other, people so

1033
00:51:23,719 --> 00:51:26,639
there is a path, there one hundred. Percent there's more

1034
00:51:26,719 --> 00:51:32,639

like there's a little.

1068
00:53:04,679 --> 00:53:07,000
Speaker 4: REDUNDANT i think it would.

1069
00:53:06,800 --> 00:53:10,000
Speaker 3: Just go back to the same thing of the consistency

1070
00:53:10,159 --> 00:53:12,159
that you told me about WHEN i was a, kid

1071
00:53:12,199 --> 00:53:14,719
AND i definitely appreciate it now BECAUSE i try and

1072
00:53:14,760 --> 00:53:17,840
carry that with me in other aspects of my. LIFE

1073
00:53:18,000 --> 00:53:20,880
i try and just be as consistent AS i can with,

1074
00:53:21,000 --> 00:53:25,679

Speaker 1: TO i think that's A i think it's a great

1078
00:53:33,800 --> 00:53:36,800
lesson for, everybody AND i think if you can do it,

1079
00:53:36,880 --> 00:53:41,280
though with the attitude of, HEY i get to lift,

1080
00:53:41,320 --> 00:53:43,719
TODAY i get to lift, TODAY i get to go

1081
00:53:43,760 --> 00:53:45,880

1082
00:53:45,920 --> 00:53:46,119

1083
00:53:46,159 --> 00:53:47,760
Speaker 4: GYM i have To there's something just.

1084
00:53:47,840 --> 00:53:51,440
Speaker 3: Different do they have to get To BECAUSE i understand that,

1085
00:53:51,559 --> 00:53:54,440
MENTALITY i take it more of A i need to,

1086
00:53:54,920 --> 00:53:58,239
yeah because for, me, yeah it's something fun and yet

1087
00:53:58,239 --> 00:54:00,599
it's SOMETHING i enjoy and it's SOMETHING i get to

1088
00:54:00,639 --> 00:54:02,400
do that a lot of people. Don't you, KNOW i

1089
00:54:02,480 --> 00:54:06,320

1090
00:54:06,440 --> 00:54:09,559
need to do it IF i it makes my day.

1091
00:54:09,599 --> 00:54:12,320
Better IF i don't do, it UNLESS i have a

1092
00:54:12,400 --> 00:54:15,480
really good excuse for Why i'm not doing. IT i

1093
00:54:15,519 --> 00:54:21,960
feel Like i'm wasting time or missing out on potentially

1094
00:54:22,360 --> 00:54:25,639
doing better THAN i would, be you, know like it's

1095
00:54:25,679 --> 00:54:27,800
a need for. ME i need to be in the

1096
00:54:27,840 --> 00:54:31,639
gym working out at least five days a, Week LIKE

1097
00:54:31,719 --> 00:54:34,719
i need to be, there and If i'm, NOT i feel.

1098
00:54:34,760 --> 00:54:36,840
Worse you, KNOW i feel Like i'm falling behind with

1099
00:54:36,920 --> 00:54:39,000
myself and WHERE i want to. Be AND i know

1100
00:54:39,079 --> 00:54:41,760
that doesn't sound good and it doesn't sound, healthy BUT

1101
00:54:41,840 --> 00:54:45,440
i mean it in the best possible, way because imagine

1102
00:54:45,840 --> 00:54:48,000
you just decide one, Day, OH i don't feel like

1103
00:54:48,039 --> 00:54:49,719

now you're losing, Money now you're falling. Behind you could

1105
00:54:52,639 --> 00:54:55,199
be you, know if you like your job and want

1106
00:54:55,239 --> 00:54:57,480
to keep doing, it then you could be falling behind

1107
00:54:57,519 --> 00:55:00,239
and wanting to get a. Promotion you, know like you

1108
00:55:00,280 --> 00:55:02,000
have a goal and you want to be the best

1109
00:55:02,079 --> 00:55:04,679
version of. Yourself then you need to treat the things

1110
00:55:04,679 --> 00:55:07,360
that you don't like doing Those OH i have to

1111
00:55:08,079 --> 00:55:10,519
not AS i get. TO'S i, MEAN i, again that's

1112
00:55:10,519 --> 00:55:12,880
a great, mentality but for, me it's a more of a.

1113
00:55:13,039 --> 00:55:17,840
NO i need to because IF i want something. Great

1114
00:55:17,920 --> 00:55:20,079
IF i want to do something, great IF i want

1115
00:55:20,079 --> 00:55:22,039
to be something, great if there's SOMETHING i want at

1116
00:55:22,079 --> 00:55:24,559
the end of all of, it THEN i need to

1117
00:55:24,679 --> 00:55:27,719
do the SHIT i don't want to, do even IF

1118
00:55:27,760 --> 00:55:32,800
i just absolutely can't do, it if i'm IF i feel,

1119
00:55:32,800 --> 00:55:38,880
like UNLESS i am actively sick or, INJURED i need

1120
00:55:38,920 --> 00:55:41,480
to do. It and that's the same thing with, school

1121
00:55:41,559 --> 00:55:43,920
the same thing with. WORK i need to. GO i

1122
00:55:43,960 --> 00:55:47,480

Speaker 4: Want, yeah, well it's.

1125
00:55:52,519 --> 00:55:57,400
Speaker 1: INTERESTING i always think like sometimes if you can go

00:55:57,440 --> 00:56:01,880
with a lighter. Attitude by ATTITUDE i, mean AND i

1127
00:56:01,880 --> 00:56:04,199
don't mean to take it more. Casually What i'm saying

1128
00:56:04,280 --> 00:56:08,519
is not going with the such. Resistance SO i have

1129
00:56:08,639 --> 00:56:10,920
to do. THIS i don't want to do. This dread,

1130
00:56:11,000 --> 00:56:13,000
THIS i you, KNOW i dread.

1131
00:56:12,719 --> 00:56:15,519
Speaker 3: Waking up on A monday morning that boss, again blah blah.

1132
00:56:15,559 --> 00:56:17,599

1136
00:56:25,039 --> 00:56:28,440
joke or. SOMETHING i just think that like that softens,

1137
00:56:28,480 --> 00:56:29,519
it because.

1138
00:56:29,199 --> 00:56:31,719
Speaker 3: You're, right you need, to you NEED I i one

1139
00:56:31,760 --> 00:56:34,400
hundred percent get. THAT i think that's a really good

1140
00:56:34,440 --> 00:56:37,760
mentality because if you just keep associating it negatively with

1141
00:56:37,880 --> 00:56:40,960
THE i have, to you, KNOW i don't want. TO

1142
00:56:40,960 --> 00:56:44,239
i dread. It you're going to hate everything you're doing

1143
00:56:44,320 --> 00:56:47,960
and you're going to put Yourself you're going to make

1144
00:56:48,000 --> 00:56:51,440
yourself more. Depressed if you start having that appreciation for,

1145
00:56:51,519 --> 00:56:56,360
things it will make you feel. Better BUT i think you.

1146
00:56:56,400 --> 00:56:57,519
Speaker 4: CAN i like.

1147
00:56:57,639 --> 00:57:00,920
Speaker 3: That BUT i love the need to because it holds

1148
00:57:00,920 --> 00:57:04,519
yourself to a higher. Standard and there there's the thing

1149
00:57:04,559 --> 00:57:07,280
that something holy, shit you want to talk, about something

1150
00:57:07,280 --> 00:57:09,880
you've drilled in my head holding yourself to a higher.

1151
00:57:09,960 --> 00:57:16,280
STANDARD i probably heard that every single day for definitely

1152
00:57:16,320 --> 00:57:19,599
for three years straight in high. School, yeah and probably
