Speaker 1: Welcome to the Transformation Station podcast. I'm Christina, owner, operator,
Speaker 1: and founder of the Transformation Station, and this is where
Speaker 1: we talk about getting stronger while navigating real life. If
Speaker 1: you're trying to stay consistent through the ups and the
Speaker 1: downs and everywhere else in between, this is for you.
Speaker 1: All right, welcome back to the podcast. I have an
Speaker 1: exciting guest today, Sarah, who is a member for You're
Speaker 1: about to celebrate your.
Speaker 2: Five years Well know, yeah, crazy wow, I know.
Speaker 1: So I'm gonna ask you a couple of questions. And
Speaker 1: this is actually the first time Sarah's been on the podcast.
Speaker 1: How do you feel about it so far?
Speaker 2: A little nervous, but I'm okay. I once we get going,
Speaker 2: I'm sure I'll be fine. Oh yeah.
Speaker 1: It's interesting like when we actually said we have a
Speaker 1: conversation like five days a week for the last almost
Speaker 1: five years, and it's just so normal. And then once
Speaker 1: you're like, okay, we're going to record our conversation, changes
Speaker 1: the name.
Speaker 2: I know, yeah, it puts a little bit of pressure
Speaker 2: on it, but I think he'll be fine.
Speaker 1: That's gonna be great. Yeah, okay, So before joining the
Speaker 1: Transformation Station, what was fitness in your life? What did
Speaker 1: it look like.
Speaker 2: Official fitness was non existent? It maybe going for a walk,
Speaker 2: maybe we're you know, going on the treadmill. Mostly it
Speaker 2: was doing things with the kids, like taking them to
Speaker 2: the park, playing soccer in the field, baseball, that kind
Speaker 2: of thing. But for myself it was non existent.
Speaker 1: Okay, So that's something I know we've talked about a lot,
Speaker 1: and usually I've actually referenced Sarah on the podcast before
Speaker 1: and cried about it. You're a mom, Yes, what are
Speaker 1: your kids? What are your kids? I do you have?
Speaker 2: I have four boys, very active boys. Well they're adults now,
Speaker 2: most of them, but yeah, they arranged from twenty five
Speaker 2: to four teen.
Speaker 1: Yeah, so it was.
Speaker 2: Very consuming and busy for most of my adult life.
Speaker 2: M So, yeah, for me, it was all about them
Speaker 2: and making sure that they were active and busy and
Speaker 2: not so much myself.
Speaker 1: Would you say you put yourself on the back burner absolutely? Yeah, Yeah, busy.
Speaker 1: I bet that's a lot of even driving there here
Speaker 1: and everywhere.
Speaker 2: Yes, yeah, organizing, planning, you know, making sure they had
Speaker 2: everything they needed, they were fed, they were looked after,
Speaker 2: and yeah, it was all about them.
Speaker 1: How did you feel about that? Like back then?
Speaker 2: Fine? Like I don't. I don't regret anything, like I
Speaker 2: think that that was kind of I loved it. That's
Speaker 2: what I wanted to be doing. But yeah, I don't
Speaker 2: think I realized how important it was to make myself
Speaker 2: a priority at that time.
Speaker 1: So, now that most of the boys are out of
Speaker 1: the house and living their lives and having girlfriends and things, yes,
Speaker 1: how how did that shift with you having not so
Speaker 1: much I don't want to say chaos, but not so
Speaker 1: many things on the agenda for everybody else? So how
Speaker 1: does that feel that? So the reason I'm asking this
Speaker 1: is because there's a few members that have approached me
Speaker 1: and they're in that transition period where it's like I'm
Speaker 1: thinking of the Britney Spears song. It's like I'm not
Speaker 1: a girl, not yet a woman, yeah, and they don't
Speaker 1: know how to be because they're like my kids were
Speaker 1: my entire life. Yes, and now I'm in a rut
Speaker 1: and I feel upset. So did you go through that
Speaker 1: growing pain of the transition.
Speaker 2: Or you're like I still feel that sometimes, like a
Speaker 2: little lost without having to be busy all the time,
Speaker 2: like taking them to and front things, or you know,
Speaker 2: they're able to do things on their own. Now they
Speaker 2: don't need me to you know, plan and organize their
Speaker 2: you know, fitness lives or take them to games and
Speaker 2: practices like they do all that themselves. So yeah, there
Speaker 2: are days that I feel like a little lost, but
Speaker 2: I know being here certainly gives me motivation and something
Speaker 2: for myself. Yeah, I haven't had.
Speaker 1: When people join the gym. It's and I say this
Speaker 1: all the time. You probably heard me say it as well.
Speaker 1: I'm like, I know you Sarah for Sarah. I don't
Speaker 1: know you as the wife version, the mom version. I
Speaker 1: mean like I feel like I'm a part of your
Speaker 1: family because I know so much about your family, because
Speaker 1: I know you're very proud of your family, and I'm like,
Speaker 1: they're all my best friends, Like your husband's my best
Speaker 1: friend and he doesn't even know.
Speaker 2: Yeah, so we're all your.
Speaker 1: Kids and your dogs.
Speaker 2: Yeah.
Speaker 1: So it's interesting because it's like I know this Sarah
Speaker 1: only version of you, not the mom version, the working version,
Speaker 1: like the I like to keep my house and order
Speaker 1: version and dog mom version, you know what I mean.
Speaker 1: It's like I only know you then all of a
Speaker 1: sudden when I meet Like last night I met Yilla's
Speaker 1: husband actually, and I was like, oh, this is this
Speaker 1: is her husband. Okay, I've heard about you. I know
Speaker 1: your name. I shook his hand and he knew my
Speaker 1: name too. Yeah, And it was like the world's collided
Speaker 1: because when I see her, I see her for just her. Right,
Speaker 1: you have other friends.
Speaker 2: Other than me. Yeah, yeah, And it's almost like you
Speaker 2: have an idea in your head and then when you
Speaker 2: see it in reality, it's yeah, it's different for sure. Yeah.
Speaker 1: Yeah, it's pretty neat. Actually. I like the different dynamics.
Speaker 1: Like sometimes I'm like, oh, that explains a lot. Yeah,
Speaker 1: now I know why you're here, right, Or sometimes I'm like,
Speaker 1: this is awesome. Now I know why you speak so
Speaker 1: highly of your family. Right, So then you can see
Speaker 1: the unit come together as one instead of just knowing
Speaker 1: one piece of it. But in saying that, like you
Speaker 1: are an individual and so has everybody else in here,
Speaker 1: and people are like, that's what I love about coming
Speaker 1: here is that I can just be me exactly yes,
Speaker 1: and no one's asking for a snack.
Speaker 2: But that's like a hundred percent yes, yes I saw.
Speaker 1: Actually word to you to next Door from Christmas Shoes
Speaker 1: on the podcast earlier this week, and or sorry at
Speaker 1: the end of last week and she posted, uh, there's
Speaker 1: a woman named Sarah. She runs that kind of life.
Speaker 1: I know you're not on social media. She's very big
Speaker 1: on social media. She's awesome. And they posted them like
Speaker 1: cheers in and they're like by like a really nice
Speaker 1: rooftop pool and it's like, yeah, I know it would
Speaker 1: be nice, and it was this is no one asking
Speaker 1: me for enughing snack?
Speaker 2: Yeah yeah the mom time.
Speaker 1: Yeah, I was like, oh, I can see that. So
Speaker 1: when you first joined the gym, okay, so I wrote, Sarah,
Speaker 1: have a few questions that I wrote pre asked your
Speaker 1: gymniversary is next week. I think it's like in the
Speaker 1: next three days as your fifth year gymniversary. Did you
Speaker 1: ever think that you would still be here five years later?
Speaker 2: No? No looking back now, yeah, why wouldn't I be here?
Speaker 2: Like it's just so it's like my home away from home.
Speaker 2: I couldn't imagine being anywhere else. But at the time, no,
Speaker 2: there's no way I would have ever thought that I'd
Speaker 2: be where I am now, never in a million years,
Speaker 2: because fitness wasn't such a focus for me. Like I
Speaker 2: just I was doing things, yes, like I was healthy,
Speaker 2: I guess, but not not like I am now.
Speaker 1: So when you first joined the gym, what were you
Speaker 1: if you could hate a picture of yourself, but you
Speaker 1: were when you entered the gym and where you're at now?
Speaker 1: What are the what's the differences?
Speaker 2: Very timid? When I first joined, Yeah, I thought I
Speaker 2: couldn't do anything. I felt like I couldn't do anything.
Speaker 2: I didn't even know where to begin. I think that
Speaker 2: was like I've always known, I hate running, I hate,
Speaker 2: you know, trying to lift things that are heavy. I
Speaker 2: was like, I can't do that. There's no way, like
Speaker 2: I'll hurt myself basically, So it was like what do
Speaker 2: what do I do? But yeah, just being here and
Speaker 2: having you show me like little steps along the way
Speaker 2: and start small and work your way up, like I
Speaker 2: don't know, I can't imagine not doing it.
Speaker 1: And now I know what your finness looks like now,
Speaker 1: But what does your fitness look like for you? So
Speaker 1: someone's listening, They're like, oh, I Sarah comes in the morning.
Speaker 1: I'm not too sure about Sarah. What does your fitness
Speaker 1: look like now?
Speaker 2: Pushing myself a little bit more, I try to, I
Speaker 2: don't know, go a little bit harder. I think every time,
Speaker 2: maybe lift a little bit heavier, or do like an
Speaker 2: extra rep or here and there. Summertime looks a lot different,
Speaker 2: as you know, and then through the school year, but
Speaker 2: like even just staying for two or three classes in
Speaker 2: the summer, is my like upping the game a little bit,
Speaker 2: or you know, doing the challenges that you kind of
Speaker 2: push me into.
Speaker 1: I think this is a great idea.
Speaker 2: Yeah yeah, but like things that I never would have
Speaker 2: thought to do on my own. Like if you had
Speaker 2: have asked me five years ago, Okay, you're going to
Speaker 2: be doing Ignite, You're going to be doing the DECA Challenge,
Speaker 2: I'd be like absolutely not. Yeah, yeah, here I am.
Speaker 1: I'm sharing that story for sure.
Speaker 2: Yeah.
Speaker 1: So not a handful of years ago and five years ago,
Speaker 1: but like half a handful of years ago. We had
Speaker 1: an in house TTS competition called Ignite, and there was
Speaker 1: different tiers that you can enter, and Sarah and one
Speaker 1: of our members, Angela, they partnered and they're like, Okay,
Speaker 1: we're going to do like the top tier if we
Speaker 1: don't need any like scalabilities like modifications for lack of
Speaker 1: better words, And you went in and you guys ended
Speaker 1: up winning and it.
Speaker 2: Was so cool.
Speaker 1: But then that's really the that's where it kind of stayed.
Speaker 1: And then you focused on what your body could do
Speaker 1: in the gym. And there's some people that are really
Speaker 1: motivated by chasing a challenge or a competition. Something about you,
Speaker 1: if I can say this out loud, is you are
Speaker 1: up for a challenge and you like to challenge yourself
Speaker 1: because you like to challenge yourself and you like how
Speaker 1: it feels. And I feel like you don't need a
Speaker 1: grand event in order to push your limits and to
Speaker 1: progress because you do that every session, every week, every
Speaker 1: month in the gym. You're always like, let's try something new,
Speaker 1: Let's try this, let's try it. Now. You're very well
Speaker 1: versed with the ski yerg machine, which is maybe two
Speaker 1: months ago never even used it. Yeah right, yeah, yeah,
Speaker 1: that's why time was. Yeah, and then I had these
Speaker 1: fifteen minute goal setting meetings and Elena, this isn't a secret,
Speaker 1: I know I'm name dropping, but yeah, Elena was like,
Speaker 1: I need something to push me out of my comfort
Speaker 1: zone to make me want to challenge myself. So I'm like, oh,
Speaker 1: I don't know, Okay, let me see what's going on.
Speaker 1: And then I was like, oh, this looks pretty good.
Speaker 1: It's called the decas drunk, so there's no running in it.
Speaker 1: And I went home and I signed her and myself
Speaker 1: up as a team, because like, you should do it
Speaker 1: with Ashley, but Ashley was busy. I'm like, oh no,
Speaker 1: I'm like okay. Then I'm like, well, I don't need
Speaker 1: another thing to add to my Like I'm doing so
Speaker 1: many competitive things that I'm now injuring myself. So I'm like, oh,
Speaker 1: I'm like, well, that's just one thing. It's going to
Speaker 1: be fine because there's no running, like it's going to
Speaker 1: be okay. And then I went home and I signed
Speaker 1: this up and then like not even a week or
Speaker 1: two before, I taught like ten hours of step and
Speaker 1: that's when I injured my knee. So I'm like, oh,
Speaker 1: I'm like I can't let a lay it down. I'm like,
Speaker 1: but she's not going to go by herself, like I
Speaker 1: need someone to sub me. And then I was standing there,
Speaker 1: I'm like I'm just gonna do it. I'm like I can't.
Speaker 1: And I remember turning and I saw you. I'm like,
Speaker 1: you can do it for sure, and then I'm like, okay,
Speaker 1: this is what it is. And I remember it was
Speaker 1: even during class like Sarah always stands like in a
Speaker 1: specific spot which isn't her spot. She's very respectful of
Speaker 1: everyone's space, but she likes if there's nobody there, she
Speaker 1: stands in what else say, is her spot. And I
Speaker 1: have like a little box there and I set up
Speaker 1: all these papers with all the rules, and as she's
Speaker 1: working at I'm like, okay, this is what it is.
Speaker 1: And I'm like trying to convey but not because I
Speaker 1: would hate for anyone to feel pressured. But I'm like,
Speaker 1: I'm just giving you. Remember, I was like, I'm just
Speaker 1: giving you the information. I don't need an answer now,
Speaker 1: and you were like instantly nervous and You're like, I'm
Speaker 1: gonna do it. I'm like, okay, I'm like, are you sure,
Speaker 1: because I don't want you to regret this tomorrow. And
Speaker 1: then it ended up working out perfectly and then you
Speaker 1: did that yes, yeah.
Speaker 2: And it was it was hard, for sure, But I
Speaker 2: don't know, like I don't feel like I would ever
Speaker 2: push myself just on my own without these little bit
Speaker 2: of you know, nudges that you give. Yeah, Like it's
Speaker 2: not overbearing, it's not like I feel like I have
Speaker 2: to do it, but it's just like that here's an idea.
Speaker 2: I think you can do it, like cheering me on
Speaker 2: kind of thing.
Speaker 1: M m yeah yeah. And that's something I love about
Speaker 1: in here is I can see you. I see, I
Speaker 1: know who you are. I know how you're motivated. I
Speaker 1: know how you're unmotivated. Like I know, like there's certain
Speaker 1: things that everybody has with it, like oh that doesn't
Speaker 1: feel good to me. So it's like, okay, how can
Speaker 1: I show you that this is something that you can do?
Speaker 1: Like I knew that deca that deca fit, I'm like,
Speaker 1: you can do those without a shadow of doubt because
Speaker 1: I see how you move, I see I know what
Speaker 1: you're like, your buttons to push right right. Yeah. I'm like, oh,
Speaker 1: this is going to be really good for you. This
Speaker 1: is easy. This is like another power burn class.
Speaker 2: Right.
Speaker 1: But as soon as people just like podcast recording, as
Speaker 1: soon as you're like it's a thing and you make
Speaker 1: an appointment, you're like.
Speaker 2: Oh shoot, yeah it changes it somehow.
Speaker 1: It changes Yeah. But as soon as I turned, I'm
Speaker 1: like you absolutely without a shadow of a doubt. If
Speaker 1: someone I knew was like, Okay, you're too far away
Speaker 1: from what that is, I'm gonnay Okay, keep practicing. This
Speaker 1: is how you can increase it. Pick a goal and
Speaker 1: then we can work towards that goal.
Speaker 2: Right.
Speaker 1: But I would never put someone in a position where
Speaker 1: they're going to feel injured, feel embarrassed, or like like
Speaker 1: they can't finish, right, So as soon as I saw it,
Speaker 1: I was like, absolutely, yes, And it's nice to have
Speaker 1: someone who believes in you more than like you believe
Speaker 1: in yourself. But it's nice to have that, Yeah.
Speaker 2: A little bit of a nudge sometimes it's good.
Speaker 1: Yeah, Sometimes it's easy just to get like stagnant, right,
Speaker 1: for sure, it's easy to coast. But then we have
Speaker 1: the friends that we've made, and you've made a lot
Speaker 1: of friends in.
Speaker 2: Here, yeah, yeah, really good friends.
Speaker 1: Yeah, and the ones who you're you're the first persons
Speaker 1: when we moved, I'm like, first, there was a few
Speaker 1: different milestones in the transformation station, and I'm like, I
Speaker 1: wonder if Sarah's going to stay. I wonder if Sarah's
Speaker 1: going to stay. And then when we pivoted and moved
Speaker 1: and adjusted, you were here. You've been here in five years.
Speaker 2: That's a lot of a lot of transitions. Yeah, roller coasters.
Speaker 1: Yeah, And as soon as I saw that you were here,
Speaker 1: I'm like, oh, okay, like you're you're here, you're family now.
Speaker 2: Yeah, I'm in for the long hal for sure. I
Speaker 2: can't imagine being anywhere else, to be honest, you haven't
Speaker 2: been anywhere else? Well, yeah, I never want I haven't
Speaker 2: been anywhere else, and I don't see that changing.
Speaker 1: It's interesting when you find something that fits you, yes,
Speaker 1: then people tend to stay. That's why I always say,
Speaker 1: like I've said it before, like we're not the best
Speaker 1: gym and barrier. I don't believe in anyone ever saying
Speaker 1: we're the best, because it depends on what it is
Speaker 1: you're looking for, right, Like I could say, well, this
Speaker 1: is to me, this is the best gym ever period
Speaker 1: in the entire world, because I love it so much. Yes,
Speaker 1: but there's some people that would walk in here and
Speaker 1: they're like, you know what, I want mirrors? I want
Speaker 1: to be able to see my body. Or maybe they're like, well,
Speaker 1: I like to take pictures and I want to have
Speaker 1: other people that wear a full face and makeup the
Speaker 1: same way that I do, and vice versa.
Speaker 2: I think, yeah, it depends what your priorities are, for sure. Yeah,
Speaker 2: if that's kind of what you're looking for, then maybe
Speaker 2: this isn't the place for you. But if I want
Speaker 2: to be pushed and you want to you know, feel
Speaker 2: like you belong, then definitely come here.
Speaker 1: Exactly. I shared this thing on the carousel. Oh yeah,
Speaker 1: you don't have social media, so I share this thing
Speaker 1: and it said there's a trend, so it says it's
Speaker 1: kind of chic too, and then you add in what
Speaker 1: it's kind of chic to about, like your business or
Speaker 1: whatever it is you're doing. Okay, And one of the
Speaker 1: slides that I the first slide, said it's kind of
Speaker 1: chic to find a gym where you can feel comfortable
Speaker 1: getting uncomfortable. Then one of the next slides was like,
Speaker 1: it's kind of chic not to have mirrors so you
Speaker 1: don't have to worry about everybody seeing your body from
Speaker 1: every angle.
Speaker 2: Yeah yeah, yeah, that would be yeah, intimidating for sure.
Speaker 1: I get so many compliments on not having mirrors in here.
Speaker 1: And when I first opened in the first location over
Speaker 1: in Cedar Point, I actually did a poll and I said,
Speaker 1: do you want mirrors or no mirrors? And everybody except
Speaker 1: one person who was a friend of mine that was
Speaker 1: a professional female bodybuilder that doesn't even live in town.
Speaker 1: She was the only person that said that she would
Speaker 1: like mirrors. Everybody else said no mirrors, no mirrors, no mirrors.
Speaker 1: So that's why we don't have them here because then
Speaker 1: as soon as in my opinion, as soon as we
Speaker 1: have mirrors, people feel like they have to perform. Yes,
Speaker 1: and people perform enough in life, like leave your performance
Speaker 1: at your work or in your car or wherever it
Speaker 1: is your you are, but in here you can.
Speaker 2: Just this is your safe space.
Speaker 1: It's a shape space. Yeah, all right, So in that context,
Speaker 1: how do you how did you find the changes with
Speaker 1: the gym moving, Because I know we talked about moving
Speaker 1: and when did you start to feel like you belonged.
Speaker 1: Was it before the move or after the move? Uh?
Speaker 2: Definitely before the move. I think the move it changed
Speaker 2: things in the fact that I felt like things just
Speaker 2: kind of blossomed a bit for you, Like not so
Speaker 2: much for myself because I was still coming and doing
Speaker 2: the same classes whether you were in the old location
Speaker 2: or here, Like location didn't matter to me. It was
Speaker 2: more I don't know, it was like it just opened
Speaker 2: a door and more people just started coming in and
Speaker 2: classes were getting bigger, and yeah, it was just I
Speaker 2: don't know, it was neat to see it grow. But
Speaker 2: as far as belong like, I've felt like I belonged
Speaker 2: from day one. You're just so I don't know, caring
Speaker 2: and inviting and you're invested in your members and you
Speaker 2: make us feel like it's okay to not know what
Speaker 2: we're doing and you're here to help us out.
Speaker 1: Thanks. I appreciate that.
Speaker 2: Well, no, it's true. Yeah, I mean I would honestly
Speaker 2: from going to not doing anything in my life to
Speaker 2: being a committed member for five years and this, Like
Speaker 2: everyone that knows me knows that this is a staple
Speaker 2: in my life. And at first they were surprised, they're
Speaker 2: like what, but now they just know this is this
Speaker 2: is my life. So yah.
Speaker 1: I like when I see you, I see you as
Speaker 1: fitness is your life, like it's a part of your
Speaker 1: life and insane like finis has become a part of
Speaker 1: your life. How how has your schedule and your routine
Speaker 1: played a part in your everyday life because you're still working?
Speaker 2: Yes, yeah, it's I thrive on routine and schedules.
Speaker 1: I like.
Speaker 2: I like deadlines. I like knowing where I need to
Speaker 2: be and how much time I have to do things.
Speaker 2: So yeah, this just your classes in the morning are perfect.
Speaker 2: They work with my schedule. I get up, I like
Speaker 2: getting up early, like doing a workout, still having time
Speaker 2: to go home and have a shower and then get
Speaker 2: to work. Like it's it works for me. Not everybody
Speaker 2: is like that, but yeah, for me, it just fits.
Speaker 1: Your time slot is genuinely, like not genuinely generally always
Speaker 1: six am Monday to Friday. Yes, since day one, Yes,
Speaker 1: for the last five years. Yes, you've been committed to
Speaker 1: that six am time slot. And then in the summer
Speaker 1: you're committed to all the time slots.
Speaker 3: Yeah.
Speaker 1: Yeah, how do you find okay? So, because I know
Speaker 1: that you're here Monday to Friday six am in that
Speaker 1: in that schedule, but you also are here most Saturdays
Speaker 1: at the eight am, So how do you find your
Speaker 1: or what's the difference I mean to Saturdays when you're
Speaker 1: here already.
Speaker 2: Because it's just it. If I don't work out, I
Speaker 2: just don't feel like me. I probably like I force
Speaker 2: myself to take Sundays off. Oh wow, And I know
Speaker 2: for myself, I need to give myself a day because
Speaker 2: I do go you know, one hundred miles an hour
Speaker 2: all the time when it comes to working out, and
Speaker 2: my body does need a bit of a rest. But yeah,
Speaker 2: if I'm not here, I don't feel like myself. Does
Speaker 2: that make sense, I don't know if it does.
Speaker 1: I know that if I don't work out, I have
Speaker 1: mood swings.
Speaker 2: Yes, yeah, I don't know if i'd say mood swings.
Speaker 2: But I just don't feel my best. Like I've discovered
Speaker 2: that being here and working out every day just kind
Speaker 2: of sets the tone for my day. And if I
Speaker 2: don't do that, then I just don't feel I don't
Speaker 2: know if motivated to the right word, but I just
Speaker 2: don't feel you'll my.
Speaker 1: Best sounds like a spark, like it gives you extra
Speaker 1: pep in your step for the rest of the day.
Speaker 1: So that's why you're Saturday is your house usually sleeping
Speaker 1: on Saturday morning. Oh so you can still come do
Speaker 1: your thing and then go back and be like hello,
Speaker 1: and then you're like a sunshine to your family. Yes,
Speaker 1: that's pretty good.
Speaker 2: It's nice.
Speaker 1: That's really nice. It's nice that you also know that
Speaker 1: about yourself, like, Okay, this is something you've done for
Speaker 1: five years. This is also something that contributes to yourself,
Speaker 1: and it also it. I look at it like it
Speaker 1: bleeds into all the other aspects of your life, Like
Speaker 1: it makes your family life better, it makes your career better,
Speaker 1: it makes your friendships better. But it's like you can
Speaker 1: come here for not even four percent of the day,
Speaker 1: or like ten percent in the summer. Yeah, and then
Speaker 1: that four percent changes the rest of the percentages of
Speaker 1: your hours. So like your forty five minutes that you
Speaker 1: put in here changes that twenty four hour clock.
Speaker 2: Yeah.
Speaker 1: Yeah, that's such a big thing.
Speaker 2: It's pretty amazing when you think of it that way.
Speaker 1: Who knew that moving your body for forty five minutes
Speaker 1: can change people's lives? Yeah, once a.
Speaker 2: Day, even just the I don't know, just the the
Speaker 2: welcome that you get with just being with your friends
Speaker 2: thought early in the morning, Like none of us really
Speaker 2: want to be at at five am and like doing this,
Speaker 2: but we all do it and we're all here, and
Speaker 2: I don't know, it's just such a nice way to
Speaker 2: start the day. I have so many happy faces and
Speaker 2: you know, good mornings and way to go. Let's do this,
Speaker 2: have a great day kind of thing. Right, We're all
Speaker 2: out the door by ten to seven, and like, have
Speaker 2: an awesome day. I don't know. It's just nice.
Speaker 1: It's funny to see too, when people are leaving versus
Speaker 1: when they're coming through the door, because like there's some
Speaker 1: people that you have, like you might have. Let's say
Speaker 1: there's twenty people and the room's big enough, don't worry,
Speaker 1: we're all like on top of each other unless we
Speaker 1: hit that twenty four mark. They're like, oh, maybe God turnsiris,
Speaker 1: but like there's space for your dory. It's funny to
Speaker 1: see like maybe out of twenty people, there's five people
Speaker 1: that are actually mourning people, and then some of the
Speaker 1: other ones are like, I'm here, this is fine. And
Speaker 1: then on Sunday morning, because I teach step at eight
Speaker 1: forty five on Sunday, which to me is still pretty
Speaker 1: late in the morning. Yes, because when you're used to
Speaker 1: waking up at four o'clock and then you're waiting all
Speaker 1: day like to go teach a class. So I'm already
Speaker 1: like even when I teach at six Am'm like but
Speaker 1: on Saturday Sunday, I opened the door and I was like, oh, hi, hi,
Speaker 1: and there was two people walking like they were here together.
Speaker 1: Like they're not like in a relationship or anything, but
Speaker 1: they're here together. And one was like walking further than
Speaker 1: the other one. The other one's like dragging her feet
Speaker 1: like she was happy to be here though. Yeah, And
Speaker 1: I opened the door and I was like, come on, hell.
Speaker 1: They started like screaming across the parking lot and I
Speaker 1: saw them. I'm like, oh, I gotta shut this door down.
Speaker 1: And walked in and everyone in deside it was laughing.
Speaker 1: I'm like, nope, nope, not mourning people.
Speaker 2: Yeah.
Speaker 1: Yeah, but then like halfway through your class, like they
Speaker 1: be not even halfway through class, like the first five minutes,
Speaker 1: you look at them and they're alive.
Speaker 2: Yeah.
Speaker 1: So it's like that energy that the energy creates energy.
Speaker 2: Absolutely, Yeah, it's so you can feel it as soon
Speaker 2: as you walk in the door.
Speaker 1: Yeah, it's pretty cool and it's cool to seem to
Speaker 1: see like when people can when I so some of
Speaker 1: the coaches when I'm first training them and I tell them,
Speaker 1: I'm like, listen for the six am class, like like
Speaker 1: you need to be there at least fifteen minutes early,
Speaker 1: of course, to set up everything, make sure every thing
Speaker 1: is right. Annie is exceptionally exceptionally early all the time.
Speaker 1: But I've told people like at five point thirty, there's
Speaker 1: sometimes people are in the parking lot. Don't feel pressured.
Speaker 1: You're not late. I'm thirty in the morning. Yeah, they
Speaker 1: are here because they like to stand behind the door
Speaker 1: and have conversations. Unless it's like pouring rain or sometimes
Speaker 1: you'll see people get into each other's cars, like in
Speaker 1: the winter. Yet like they're here because they actually really
Speaker 1: like each other and they're used to the routine. So
Speaker 1: for me, it's so rewarding. Sometimes they park in the
Speaker 1: back sometimes when it's like rain or snowing, I'm like,
Speaker 1: is anyone coming in? And they're like, oh, shoot, you're here,
Speaker 1: Like I've been flashing the lights. You can't see though. Yeah,
Speaker 1: but there's sometimes I open the door, I walk in,
Speaker 1: and I hear. I hear every detail all the time,
Speaker 1: so I hear all the conversations. I'm like, it's not
Speaker 1: just about the workout most of the times, it's not.
Speaker 1: At this point, like people are talking about their own lives.
Speaker 1: And that's how I know. I'm like, Okay, I'm gonna
Speaker 1: set everything up, I'm going to put my shoes on,
Speaker 1: I'm going to let people socialize before we get busy,
Speaker 1: because and I know, like a lot of gyms that
Speaker 1: I've been to in the past, not to compare, but
Speaker 1: also to evaluate. I know when I was younger too,
Speaker 1: is people are like, oh, well, class starts at six,
Speaker 1: we open the door at ten to six or five
Speaker 1: to six. They're here for a workout. But in my
Speaker 1: opinion and what I've built here is people are here
Speaker 1: also for the social and there's sometimes when someone's new
Speaker 1: they're like, oh, I'm just going because of my goals
Speaker 1: or the doctor told me I need to move. And
Speaker 1: before and at first heading into a new space, they're like, oh,
Speaker 1: people are talking, but then like, oh they're talking to me.
Speaker 1: They noticed me, Oh hi, I'm here. Like we did
Speaker 1: the partner work out and we had a new member
Speaker 1: who's now officially a member, and we're not that close.
Speaker 1: I'm not going to name drop just yet. But the
Speaker 1: second day it was Friday, and it was a partner
Speaker 1: workout and most people are afraid. But the day before
Speaker 1: there was a couple of members talking. I'm like, I'm
Speaker 1: gonna put you with them, don't even worry about it,
Speaker 1: Like this was great, And then that morning it was
Speaker 1: we want her to be with us, and she's like, oh,
Speaker 1: I don't know what to do with her, this is
Speaker 1: your second class, and look how popular you are, Like
Speaker 1: you never have to worry about standing in the corner.
Speaker 2: No, every one is very kind and very welcoming, and yeah,
Speaker 2: they're just I don't know, it's just such a unique space.
Speaker 1: People here, I'm going to say, are normal, yes, yeah,
Speaker 1: just normal people.
Speaker 2: Yes. Yeah.
Speaker 1: I think I hate saying that normal because we're all
Speaker 1: special in our own way.
Speaker 2: Yeah, but like I feel like everyone gets everybody like
Speaker 2: we just we've all been there at one point. We've
Speaker 2: all been the new person, We've all tried something that
Speaker 2: we're not really comfortable with. We're all like I have
Speaker 2: no idea what I'm doing, but I'm going to do
Speaker 2: it anyway totally. And yeah, and everyone's just here to
Speaker 2: encourage each other.
Speaker 1: And no one likes stubs anybody. No, no, oh I
Speaker 1: kicked someone out so fast.
Speaker 2: Yeah.
Speaker 1: I don't love like when people are like, oh, Christina's
Speaker 1: the boss and I don't like that word at all.
Speaker 1: And I'm like, I'm here to have a good time everybody.
Speaker 1: But yeah, I have to like control the space and
Speaker 1: dwell the stuff. But like, I have no problem putting
Speaker 1: on that boss hat because I love people. But I'm
Speaker 1: not a people pleaser, right, So I mean like, I
Speaker 1: think we all fall into that little slump sometimes once
Speaker 1: in a while. But when it comes to business, like
Speaker 1: I protect it at all costs something yeah, and I
Speaker 1: need and I need to do that.
Speaker 2: Yeah.
Speaker 1: So that's where I'm like, And people have complimented like, oh, Christina,
Speaker 1: like you really take care of the people here, You
Speaker 1: take care of the space. I'm like, yeah, because I
Speaker 1: look out for the whole unit.
Speaker 2: Yes.
Speaker 1: But the thing I love about it is that I
Speaker 1: know you, I know everyone standing in this room. There
Speaker 1: was a new person. I never even coached her before,
Speaker 1: and I met her once in passing and I was like, oh, hi,
Speaker 1: And then there was someone else in zoom, but I
Speaker 1: looked at her. I'm like, I love your haircut, and
Speaker 1: she's like, you haven't seen me in how long have
Speaker 1: you know? I got my haircut. I'm like, well, you
Speaker 1: have bangs now and you didn't have bangs before. And
Speaker 1: I would have seen her during zoom, but where the
Speaker 1: lights are off in passing when I wasn't teaching, but
Speaker 1: I was teaching, and I'm like, I pay attention to
Speaker 1: so much detail. I'm like, when did you get your haircut? Though,
Speaker 1: and then someone else, another member that I've known for
Speaker 1: like fifteen years because I knew her even before the gym,
Speaker 1: and she's like, how do you pay so much attention?
Speaker 2: How do you know that?
Speaker 1: Actually I just got my haircut on Thursday, Christia, It's like.
Speaker 2: You do you do notice the details, which is very nice,
Speaker 2: very nice. Yeah, and then your members appreciate that because
Speaker 2: you feel you feel seen.
Speaker 1: I've heard that yeah, yeah, and I I'm nosy too,
Speaker 1: like if someone's wearing like when you have a new
Speaker 1: pair of shoes, I turned like, you're wearing a new
Speaker 1: pair of shoes.
Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah.
Speaker 1: But then I followed up with those questions like how
Speaker 1: does it feel like did you notice that your other shoes?
Speaker 1: And you said, like, my stability was starting to feel
Speaker 1: a little bit off because I've worn those shoes so much. Yeah,
Speaker 1: here every day, so you're gonna go through not close
Speaker 1: clothes too, You're gonna go through shoes a little bit
Speaker 1: quicker than the average show because you are using them
Speaker 1: more often. Yes, but it's neat to see because then
Speaker 1: there's it's not just coming here for a workout, because like,
Speaker 1: how how does your body feel when you're doing the workout.
Speaker 1: Sometimes it's the shoes, so when I can see someone
Speaker 1: has a different pair of shoes, and also I recognize
Speaker 1: that she now has banks, right, so you're gonna sweat
Speaker 1: your banks might bother you. We have some bobby pins
Speaker 1: under the counter that I keep a whole bunch of
Speaker 1: sash in the bathroom for people. So it's also paying
Speaker 1: attention to that, like, are you gonna get annoyed halfway
Speaker 1: through class because your hair is sweated on your neck
Speaker 1: now or as before it wasn't right?
Speaker 2: So I guess like the little details that you notice
Speaker 2: and you think about yeah, yeah, And.
Speaker 1: Like some people like I can also respect like I.
Speaker 1: I'm also a believer where I'm like, Okay, don't put
Speaker 1: too much thought into it because it's going to stress
Speaker 1: you out. But let me put the thought into it
Speaker 1: for you, because I'm going to make sure that all
Speaker 1: you got to do is show up right, Like this
Speaker 1: is going to be good. So what has changed for
Speaker 1: you over the last few years that has nothing to
Speaker 1: do with weight or appearance?
Speaker 2: I think for myself, it's letting go of the idea
Speaker 2: that everything needs to come before me.
Speaker 1: WHOA does that make sense? No?
Speaker 2: I don't know. If I'm making sense, making like letting
Speaker 2: go of the fact that I need to do everything
Speaker 2: for everybody else first, and then if there's time, then
Speaker 2: I can do something for myself and making me a priority.
Speaker 2: That's gold. Yeah.
Speaker 1: If I were to take everything out of this podcast
Speaker 1: and say we only have sixty seconds, I would clip that.
Speaker 2: Okay.
Speaker 1: Yeah, that's such a common thing, like yes, putting every
Speaker 1: everybody else and everything else and then before Sarah, but
Speaker 1: you schedule your workouts, yes, and then you stick to
Speaker 1: your commitment.
Speaker 2: Yes, yes, and it works for me like I like
Speaker 2: my time is first thing in the morning and then
Speaker 2: I can deal with everything else. But yeah, that's changed
Speaker 2: the most. I never would have done that before, and
Speaker 2: I maybe part of it is because the boys are
Speaker 2: at a different stage in life and they don't need
Speaker 2: me as much. But I don't know. Things may have
Speaker 2: been easier. I may have not been as stressed if
Speaker 2: I had have done this, you know, fifteen years ago, right,
Speaker 2: because you would have already because I would have changed
Speaker 2: that outlook or had that you know, momentum for the
Speaker 2: day going. But you know, they can't live in the past,
Speaker 2: just keep going forward.
Speaker 1: But that's interesting because someone who's listening to that right
Speaker 1: now might be like, oh, I feel like I never
Speaker 1: come first. Yes.
Speaker 2: Yeah, it has to be a commitment for yourself for sure.
Speaker 2: You have to like make it happen, because if you say, well,
Speaker 2: I'm going to do this, this and this, and then
Speaker 2: if there's time, I'll do that, there's never going to
Speaker 2: be time, because there's always going to be something else
Speaker 2: that you feel like you need to do.
Speaker 1: I like that you said that too. Like the how
Speaker 1: I interpreted some of that as well is you are
Speaker 1: not willing to hurt your own feelings because you ten
Speaker 1: minutes ago said like you like how you feel from
Speaker 1: the gym, and if you don't have your workout then
Speaker 1: it feels like your whole day is off. Yeah. I
Speaker 1: love that you are. You've flipped the script that you're like,
Speaker 1: I'm not going to sacrifice my own feelings and my
Speaker 1: own wellbeing for somebody else. Yes, because it's so easy
Speaker 1: too in saying that, Like it's always just say, oh,
Speaker 1: you know what, I'm just going to unreserve this. I'm
Speaker 1: a burden in my workout is too much for you.
Speaker 1: I'm just going to take care of my spouse. I'm
Speaker 1: going to take care of our home. I'm going to
Speaker 1: it's too you know what, just forget it and the
Speaker 1: people mad. But then over time, I feel like people
Speaker 1: it starts to eat away at people and they start
Speaker 1: to lose themselves.
Speaker 2: You do one hundred percent and you feel like, I
Speaker 2: don't know, there's that stigma of your being selfish if you,
Speaker 2: you know, think about yourself before someone else, and it's
Speaker 2: like the complete opposite, like you need to look after
Speaker 2: yourself so that you can be the best for everyone.
Speaker 1: Else and for yourself and for everybody else.
Speaker 2: Exactly.
Speaker 1: Yeah, totally, And I think sometimes that's the gap that
Speaker 1: needs to be bridged. You can be what appears to
Speaker 1: be selfish because it's going to improve your life and
Speaker 1: it's going to bleed into every other aspect of your life.
Speaker 1: You showing up. And it's interesting because there's some people
Speaker 1: that are like, oh well, I'm going to see what happens.
Speaker 1: This weekend was Boots and Hearts. My whole Instagram. Everybody
Speaker 1: that I know under the sun was doing like Boots
Speaker 1: and Hearts and quite a few members as well. And
Speaker 1: I'm not going to throw shade on this out because
Speaker 1: everyone has what their priorities are there's sometimes maybe it's
Speaker 1: for a special event and it's a weekend or whatever,
Speaker 1: then by all means, but there's sometimes I hear when
Speaker 1: people are the most upset with themselves is they prioritize
Speaker 1: their weekend and they stay up drinking or partying or
Speaker 1: doing whatever it is they need to do, or going
Speaker 1: out with like he she everywhere, whatever whatever it is,
Speaker 1: and they're like, well, let's just see how tired I
Speaker 1: am on Monday or Tuesday to see if I'm going
Speaker 1: to come in for a workout, right, Which is okay
Speaker 1: if that's their priority, But if you're telling me that
Speaker 1: you're sore, you're not sleeping well, you're not eating well,
Speaker 1: you're starting to feel anxious or depressed. Movement. Movement to
Speaker 1: me is medicine in a certain way, like medicine exists
Speaker 1: for certain things for a reason. So I'm not talking
Speaker 1: about that in depth, right, but right if you need
Speaker 1: to sleep better and you want to feel better about yourself,
Speaker 1: you want to gain your strength, your mobility, then maybe
Speaker 1: just try prioritizing your workouts on a Monday. So when
Speaker 1: people ask me stuff, and I'm used to coaching, I
Speaker 1: wake up at four am, even the last few days
Speaker 1: I've coached in the evening, I've still been I've still
Speaker 1: been here early, but I'm like, I'm still at four o'clock,
Speaker 1: five o'clock. I'm like, oh man, But like I prioritize
Speaker 1: being here because this is my number one priority is myself,
Speaker 1: my workouts and coaching my classes and being here for
Speaker 1: the business. So when someone's like, oh, there's I really
Speaker 1: was interested. But then I'm afraid of the dark. I'm
Speaker 1: afraid of water. So someone was like, let's do a
Speaker 1: night light night moonlit kayaking event. It starts at nine pm,
Speaker 1: Like I'm on my first dream. At least by nine pm,
Speaker 1: like there's no way. Sometimes by like ten pm depends
Speaker 1: on how rebellious I am going to sleep, and I'm like, nope,
Speaker 1: I'm not going to do that because I have to
Speaker 1: wake up and do my workout or do whatever I
Speaker 1: need to do. A few years ago, I had Cane
Speaker 1: Brown tickets and I got Premium seeds. I was excited
Speaker 1: about Canine Brown, and I looked at Chris. It was like,
Speaker 1: I think the day before or the day of when
Speaker 1: we would have to leave, I think is what it was.
Speaker 1: And I looked him like listen, Like, the show doesn't
Speaker 1: start till seven thirty eight pm. He's not going to
Speaker 1: be on the stage until nine. It's in Toronto. I'm like,
Speaker 1: I really, really, really at this time, I wasn't coaching
Speaker 1: in the morning, but I'm like, I really want to
Speaker 1: make it to my workout in the morning. And I
Speaker 1: know that if I don't get home till one two o'clock,
Speaker 1: I'm going to be wrecked. Yeah, and that's even not drinking.
Speaker 1: So I'm like, it's not just being up late, it's
Speaker 1: just going to be up late. So I had like
Speaker 1: maybe eight hundred dollars of these Cane Brown tickets, maybe more,
Speaker 1: and I posted on my social media and thankfully there's
Speaker 1: a lot of viewers on my stories and stuff. I'm like, hey,
Speaker 1: it's really concert tonight. You can have these tickets free.
Speaker 1: Like it's not worth the time or the money for
Speaker 1: me to go sacrifice my own goals. And I gave
Speaker 1: the tickets away. But there's some people that would say,
Speaker 1: I'm going to go hit up this concert even though
Speaker 1: it takes them three days to recover, right, So it's
Speaker 1: it's what I've what I'm learning from you as well,
Speaker 1: is that you have really prioritized your well being. Yes, yeah,
Speaker 1: and that to me, I know, like some people say
Speaker 1: that sounds selfish, that to me sounds normal.
Speaker 2: Yes, and I think it needs to be more normalized,
Speaker 2: if that makes sense, Like, yeah, for for some of
Speaker 2: us it is, but yeah, it in the greater scheme.
Speaker 2: I think more women especially need to focus on themselves
Speaker 2: and not feel the guilt.
Speaker 1: And not feel the guilt not just from themselves but
Speaker 1: other opinions too.
Speaker 2: Yeah.
Speaker 1: Yeah, I've heard that before, like, oh, you're working out
Speaker 1: now at this time, at dinner time, how does your
Speaker 1: husband feel about it? A what?
Speaker 2: Yeah, and you'd be surprised, like a lot of women
Speaker 2: would say something that or would feel that. But then
Speaker 2: if you have that conversation, probably ninety percent it be like, yeah,
Speaker 2: go ahead do this, but you just feel like you can't.
Speaker 1: And some people too, are like, well, my husband's making dinner,
Speaker 1: so when I get home, I have my extra protein.
Speaker 2: Yeah exactly.
Speaker 1: Yeah, you got a man that supports you. High five.
Speaker 2: Yeah.
Speaker 1: Or sometimes they're like, well, I make dinner first, and
Speaker 1: I make sure everything's ready, and then they can eat
Speaker 1: without me, because I know I want to do this
Speaker 1: and I know that there's going to be food for
Speaker 1: me when I go home.
Speaker 2: Yeah, So there's always ways to make it work. It's
Speaker 2: just making it work rather than saying i'll get there later.
Speaker 1: Right, Yes, And then like, actually, my friend Dincy who
Speaker 1: was here last night and her parents are visiting from India.
Speaker 1: I didn't really I thought it was a thirteen hour flight.
Speaker 1: It's a twenty hour flight. And I was speaking with
Speaker 1: them and they are very mobile, so I was like, oh, okay, cool,
Speaker 1: and I wanted to know about them, like what did
Speaker 1: you do before? And like, and I said, for myself,
Speaker 1: I prioritize movement because now that I'm thirty nine, what
Speaker 1: I do now at forty is what I'm going to
Speaker 1: reap the benefits of when I'm forty five, fifty, fifty five, sixty.
Speaker 1: So it's laying down that foundation. I didn't have that foundation.
Speaker 1: My foundation was like inverted versus most people. By the
Speaker 1: time I was fifteen years old, I was bedridden because
Speaker 1: of mobility and my weight and I couldn't move, whereas
Speaker 1: most fifteen year olds are like, whooh, this is a party.
Speaker 1: I'm on a skateboard, I'm riding a bike. I never
Speaker 1: wrote a poop, was like you just learned how to
Speaker 1: ride a bike at thirty eight years old. I was like, yeah, man,
Speaker 1: you think I couldn't even walk, never mind ride a bike, right,
Speaker 1: So like that's where the perspective is a little bit different.
Speaker 1: Yeah that I knew that fitness saved my life even now,
Speaker 1: but if I don't keep practicing that, and that's why
Speaker 1: I'll never go back. I don't care what shape or
Speaker 1: size I am in my body, but I need to
Speaker 1: be mobile and I need to be healthy because I
Speaker 1: have experienced the like that version, and I'm like, ah, yeah,
Speaker 1: if I was that at fifteen years old, sixteen, seventeen,
Speaker 1: eighteen years old, am I going to be like that
Speaker 1: when I'm seventy eighty years old? I hope that my
Speaker 1: life is like what's that that show where it's like
Speaker 1: that that little boy and he's like a man and
Speaker 1: he ages in reverse, he ages but he gets younger.
Speaker 1: There's a show, there's a movie, and if anyone knows
Speaker 1: what this show is, please let me know because it's
Speaker 1: gonna be bothering me. You might chatch to it later.
Speaker 1: I don't know. And it was like a guy's name,
Speaker 1: But I know that when I'm eighty years old. I
Speaker 1: want to be like bouncing off the walls. I want
Speaker 1: to still hopefully be teaching step at eighty years old.
Speaker 1: So I think that that has something to do with
Speaker 1: it as well.
Speaker 2: Oh for sure. Yeah, and wanting to be yeah, active
Speaker 2: and involved and you know, as the boys get older
Speaker 2: and they meet significant others and maybe even have grandchildren,
Speaker 2: like I want to be involved and going and doing,
Speaker 2: and I don't want to be not able.
Speaker 1: To yes, right, yeah. Ruth and Jackie are going to
Speaker 1: be coming on the podcast soon and we talked when
Speaker 1: I was The reason why I asked them is we
Speaker 1: were actually having a conversation at the time front door.
Speaker 1: The front door carries a lot of cons.
Speaker 2: It's a great vault for the conversation.
Speaker 1: And she was talking about like keeping up with her
Speaker 1: grandkids and her She said to her her grandson, how
Speaker 1: old do you think Nana is? Five? Yeah, but she's going.
Speaker 1: I saw pictures of her because I also her daughter
Speaker 1: in law were friends on Instagram as well, and I
Speaker 1: can see some of the videos and pictures. I literally
Speaker 1: I'm gonna try talking about it, like I saw Ruth,
Speaker 1: who is considered a senior, which is weird.
Speaker 2: To say out there.
Speaker 1: But again there's no shame in being a senior either.
Speaker 1: So I saw videos of her like playing and running
Speaker 1: down his slide and like being really fun with her grandson,
Speaker 1: and I was literally crying because I'm like, hey, I
Speaker 1: wish I had that. And also like this is all
Speaker 1: those years of being mobile and working on your fitness
Speaker 1: and putting yourself as your workouts, and her life is busy.
Speaker 1: She has stories, man, Like she's always like exhausting.
Speaker 2: Just look, it's the best way, it's past way, in
Speaker 2: the best way. But yeah, like if she wasn't here
Speaker 2: putting in the works, she wouldn't be able to do
Speaker 2: what she does exactly.
Speaker 1: And now as you're saying that, it's cool to see
Speaker 1: the different chapters, right, So now that you're in that chapter,
Speaker 1: hopefully like my fingers across.
Speaker 2: Not too soon, No, not too soon, not ready for
Speaker 2: that yet.
Speaker 1: So if your sons are listening, yeah, not yet yet,
Speaker 1: soon ish lay that foundation. Yeah that's funny. So has
Speaker 1: there been seasons where fitness wasn't as consistent?
Speaker 2: I don't think so. I think right from the beginning,
Speaker 2: I kind of just jumped in with both feet and
Speaker 2: have been coming every day. Why I don't really know.
Speaker 2: I don't know the answer to that. Were definitely times
Speaker 2: when it was harder, Like, you know, I find September
Speaker 2: is always harder. I'm definitely more exhausted going back to work,
Speaker 2: like trying to you know, get back into that work routine.
Speaker 2: It's hard. I find the holidays are always hard because
Speaker 2: everyone's just exhausted, right, like you're hosting and shopping and
Speaker 2: you know, again worrying about everybody else.
Speaker 1: That.
Speaker 2: Yeah, it's definitely. I find there's times when I feel
Speaker 2: it harder. But I've never not consistently come to the gym.
Speaker 2: I don't know, I.
Speaker 1: Don't that doesn't all the one the one time when Jeremy,
Speaker 1: oh can I say his name on here? Okay, oh
Speaker 1: my god, I forever recorded. Yeah, the one time Jeremy
Speaker 1: surprised you, well, yeah, elfbird, was that ALBERTI? Yes, yeah,
Speaker 1: this is weird. Sarah's not here.
Speaker 2: But that was only like five days though. Funny, it's such.
Speaker 1: Like a consistent state of like you know who you
Speaker 1: see every day, like you know what I every day,
Speaker 1: and like I think that was the only and that
Speaker 1: to me, isn't lack of consistency that was reaping the
Speaker 1: benefits of what you do every single day, right to
Speaker 1: go and live your life on the outside of the gym.
Speaker 1: But I think that was the longest period of time
Speaker 1: that we didn't see you in the gym, and it
Speaker 1: was for five days because you went on an anniversary
Speaker 1: celebration with your husband.
Speaker 2: Yeah exactly. Yeah, no, really, like that's really the only time.
Speaker 2: The other when my mom passed, I took but I
Speaker 2: don't even think I took a full week because that
Speaker 2: specifically coming here and working out was what helped me
Speaker 2: deal with all of the emotions that went along with that,
Speaker 2: right it was. Yeah, It's just I didn't realize I
Speaker 2: guess how much it affects you, and how much being
Speaker 2: in the gym and working out and just being with
Speaker 2: positive people make I don't know, everything just so much better.
Speaker 1: Yeah, And I think it helps people get about other things.
Speaker 1: And I know people will say, like, I hate counting
Speaker 1: in an am rap, but we're counting for a reason. Yeah,
Speaker 1: Because if you don't like counting and you're not counting,
Speaker 1: I don't even care if you're counting accurately, as long
Speaker 1: as you're focused on something, focused on messing up your
Speaker 1: counting or focus on Oh I forgot to start counting
Speaker 1: and then you laugh and you're like, I'm just gonna
Speaker 1: go until you go. Were you counting?
Speaker 2: I know, Well, my last Friday when we had the
Speaker 2: four of us working out like it was I don't
Speaker 2: think we stopped laughing the entire workout, like it was
Speaker 2: just I don't know, but we were all working and
Speaker 2: we were all sweaty.
Speaker 1: I remember you and Paige were like, I think you
Speaker 1: guys are done, and Elna and actually were like they
Speaker 1: started going vice versa or something. I'm like, oh, you
Speaker 1: guys really like that exercise for sure. It's like were
Speaker 1: you counting? Recounting? I don't even know that, Like you's
Speaker 1: gonna be here for ten minutes doing the exact same thing,
Speaker 1: but we were just doing Yeah, it was fun.
Speaker 2: It was fun.
Speaker 1: Yeah, And I like that that has that distraction, yes,
Speaker 1: because if people are are like, oh, it's a minute
Speaker 1: worth of work. I see people's eyes and I see
Speaker 1: how people respond to things like they're working hard and
Speaker 1: they're doing it, but a lot of the times they're focus.
Speaker 1: It shifts where then people will stop to breathe and
Speaker 1: they'll check their phones. I'm like, hey, what are you
Speaker 1: doing over there? Like ye is an emergency. No, Like
Speaker 1: I would never say that out loud because we're all
Speaker 1: adults and do what you need to do. But when
Speaker 1: we're counting, there's less people picking up their phones. Not
Speaker 1: that I'd say ninety nine percent of people don't bring
Speaker 1: their phones on the gym floor unless they have like
Speaker 1: someone's at home for the first time because they just
Speaker 1: like turn thirteen or fourteen. They're trying to use a
Speaker 1: blender like something like that. So I can respect that
Speaker 1: completely because I'm happy you're here and you got to
Speaker 1: your workout. But there's sometimes like you don't need to
Speaker 1: check Instagram while you're on the gym floor. So thankfully
Speaker 1: that doesn't really happen. But with the counting, people don't
Speaker 1: have to worry about their feelings. They only have to
Speaker 1: get mad about Now I have to count, Christina, Okay,
Speaker 1: you be mad at me that you have to count
Speaker 1: to ten. If that is I'm telling you, I can
Speaker 1: see beyond counting to ten, because it's to change your
Speaker 1: whole life. Yeah, so like it's it's different. So after
Speaker 1: five years, I know we're going back to the five
Speaker 1: year thing. What keeps you coming back? Like how like
Speaker 1: why are you still here. It's Page.
Speaker 2: No, no, it's not. Paige.
Speaker 1: Page is a great piece of that puzzle.
Speaker 2: You too, because each of us remembers seeing each other
Speaker 2: for the first time and we were both like, oh
Speaker 2: and now we're like really good friends. But yeah, it's
Speaker 2: I don't know what keeps me coming back. I think
Speaker 2: the feeling that I get, like I just feel motivated. Yeah,
Speaker 2: I feel like when I, like I said, when I
Speaker 2: take a day off and I'm not here and I'm
Speaker 2: not working out, I just don't feel like myself. I
Speaker 2: like the feeling that I get when I come and
Speaker 2: do a workout every day.
Speaker 1: So if you you grabbed onto that spark and you
Speaker 1: ran with it, yes, Yeah, I've seen so many people
Speaker 1: come in and as you know, like Caroline is still here,
Speaker 1: and Jackie and Ruth and like there's some people that
Speaker 1: have been members from even before the move, and there's
Speaker 1: everybody else in between. So like, I see people that
Speaker 1: go hard, and I see them every day for five
Speaker 1: days and they last like three months, and then their
Speaker 1: life dramatically changes. And then they dramatically change and they
Speaker 1: throw in the towel. And it's not that they go
Speaker 1: to another gym, they just they quit and everything else
Speaker 1: in between that. I've seen people come in and they
Speaker 1: go hardcore for like a week, and then I don't
Speaker 1: see them for three more weeks, and they come back
Speaker 1: and they're like, no, I'm going to go hardcore again,
Speaker 1: and they haven't quite found. What I'm going to say
Speaker 1: is what the reason why? Like why are you still? There?
Speaker 1: Has to be something so life changing why someone keeps
Speaker 1: showing up and puts everything else aside to keep showing up.
Speaker 1: And I feel like the secret sauce is finding that
Speaker 1: for yourself. So would you say you're I hate using
Speaker 1: the word secret sauce, but secret sauce and secret recipe
Speaker 1: for you? Would you say that that is the feeling
Speaker 1: or is it a vision or is it a fear?
Speaker 2: I think it's all three. I think it's all three.
Speaker 2: I think I like how I feel. I I like
Speaker 2: thinking that in five more years, I'm going to be
Speaker 2: active and I can do things I'm not going to be,
Speaker 2: you know, struggling to get up and down flights of
Speaker 2: stairs or you know, winded chasing a grandchild at the park.
Speaker 2: And I think the fear of you know, getting older
Speaker 2: and aging and if I don't start looking after myself,
Speaker 2: then these things could happen. Yeah. I think it's a
Speaker 2: combination of the three.
Speaker 1: Huh, I could see it. Yeah, yeah, it's like what
Speaker 1: happens if you do this? What happens if you don't?
Speaker 2: Yeah?
Speaker 1: Yeah. I always like when I do like one to
Speaker 1: one coaching, something that I bring up quite often is
Speaker 1: the rocking chair challenge. So it's like, close your eyes,
Speaker 1: think of yourself in a rocking chair, You're seventy five,
Speaker 1: eighty years old, Where are you at? What does your
Speaker 1: life look like? And is it if you continue doing
Speaker 1: what you're doing right now, how is that going to
Speaker 1: feel when you're eighty years old if you continue, What
Speaker 1: does it look like if you don't, What does it
Speaker 1: look like? What does your life look like at eighty
Speaker 1: years old as well? And what are the steps that
Speaker 1: you can do right now in this moment to get
Speaker 1: you there. So it's all like, think of yourself at
Speaker 1: your goal. What does it look like in five years
Speaker 1: from now, ten years from now, twenty years from now.
Speaker 1: Is it going to be having a small waist in
Speaker 1: a big booty that's going to last for the rest
Speaker 1: of your life? Well for me, I hope, so it
Speaker 1: would be nice. That would be nice. But I'd best
Speaker 1: believe that I can walk up and down from stairs. Yeah,
Speaker 1: I can tie my shoes properly. Yeah, I can like
Speaker 1: not have to sleep all day because I have no energy.
Speaker 1: So I think all those things can be true. At
Speaker 1: the same time, there's some people that like they don't
Speaker 1: care about appearance at all, and there's some people that
Speaker 1: only care about appearance, right, and then everything else.
Speaker 2: In between, right, I think, Yeah, I think a big
Speaker 2: scope for sure, Like you know, appearance would be great,
Speaker 2: Like everyone probably wants to look a certain way, like
Speaker 2: you know, but for me, it's yeah, more the feeling
Speaker 2: and like the longevity of it all, Like I want
Speaker 2: to be able to do these things in ten years,
Speaker 2: like you know, I'm pushing fifty. I want to be
Speaker 2: able to you know, be like yeah I can do this,
Speaker 2: you know, and even just having the boys like motivate me, right,
Speaker 2: like yeah, mom, you can.
Speaker 3: I would never be able to do what you do.
Speaker 3: It's cool for inspiring Yeah yeah, now you're inspiring your kids. Yeah, family, Yeah,
Speaker 3: that's badass. That is spuch the trophy for kids to
Speaker 3: be proud of their mom and to be like, yes, mom,
Speaker 3: like you did do that. You can do that and
Speaker 3: be proud.
Speaker 1: I also appreciate that you are and I don't know
Speaker 1: you as a mom, like I know you as a mom,
Speaker 1: and I know your emotions behind it and your feelings
Speaker 1: and some of the growing pains that you've gone through.
Speaker 1: And when I say growing pains, that's not a negative thing.
Speaker 1: I mean like kids growing up and having.
Speaker 2: To buy books.
Speaker 1: I talked about that pretty recently, like there's books that
Speaker 1: cost five hundred dollars.
Speaker 2: Did you know that I.
Speaker 1: Was thinking of you when I made that episode. I'm like,
Speaker 1: books are expensive. Not to throw salts in that wound,
Speaker 1: but I know that you're when we talked about it.
Speaker 1: You are happy for that because that's your kid's future.
Speaker 1: So that was really cool. I see a lot of
Speaker 1: different family I want to say trends, but not trends
Speaker 1: when people join the gym so I can tell someone
Speaker 1: for the most part, it's like you know how people say,
Speaker 1: like show me who your friends are, and I'll show
Speaker 1: you who you are. I have noticed that in my opinion,
Speaker 1: so I don't offend anybody. I've seen that transpire in
Speaker 1: the gym. So I know that your family is exceptional
Speaker 1: and you've done everything that you can in your power
Speaker 1: for that with your husband and your kids, Like you're
Speaker 1: a family unit. And I can see that, is it
Speaker 1: the word transpire onto the gym floor. I know that
Speaker 1: you're a person of excellence and your family because of
Speaker 1: how you show up and how you show up to
Speaker 1: what it is that you're doing. So there's two other
Speaker 1: people that come to mind in that context, and you'll
Speaker 1: be like, oh, yes, I can see it. Is Christine,
Speaker 1: So Christine, you see that?
Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Speaker 1: Her family is very similar to yours. She has boys
Speaker 1: as well, and they are hockey players. They're very athletic,
Speaker 1: and her and her husband are a fantastic unit. And
Speaker 1: like I can see that drive and that excellence transpire
Speaker 1: onto the gym floor. She shows up, she works hard,
Speaker 1: she's trying to step a little bit out of her shell.
Speaker 1: And it's not a secret because like she's actually more
Speaker 1: of a quiet person and people are very intimidated by her.
Speaker 2: Yes, because she's a bad ass. Yes she is.
Speaker 1: She so bad ass, but when you get to know her,
Speaker 1: like she's such a kind person. Someone else, I'll bring
Speaker 1: up one more example of this is Ashley. Yes, yeah,
Speaker 1: like you can tell and her husband's been here. I
Speaker 1: loved him so lot. Remember it made that AI picture
Speaker 1: of him and I sent him this is your formal invite.
Speaker 1: He opens it. That's me. But like you can tell
Speaker 1: that how she is in the gym and on the
Speaker 1: gym floor, that she is a person of excellence not
Speaker 1: just in her own personal life, but in her family
Speaker 1: as well. So she's someone who's like, yes, my kids
Speaker 1: are exceptional.
Speaker 3: Kid.
Speaker 1: She has one kid, like, my kid is an exceptional kid.
Speaker 1: But also I the same way that I asked him
Speaker 1: to show up to practice, she's showing up to practice.
Speaker 1: That's her class, right, And the same way that you
Speaker 1: were like, okay, my boys did all these things and
Speaker 1: all these appointments. You know without a shadow of a
Speaker 1: doubt that you're here at a certain time. I remember
Speaker 1: the other day when you showed up. It was like
Speaker 1: you weren't late, but you were just as class was starting.
Speaker 1: And I was like, what, You're usually one of the
Speaker 1: first people here. Yeah, And I was like what You're like,
Speaker 1: I think did your alarm not go off or something?
Speaker 4: Yeah?
Speaker 2: So it was Liam was having a low. Sorry, so
Speaker 2: my son's Type one diabetic, so he was having a
Speaker 2: low night his alarm was going off. I in the
Speaker 2: midst of looking at it on my phone must have
Speaker 2: shut off my five am alarm to get up. Anyway,
Speaker 2: it was. It was a bit of a commotion, but
Speaker 2: I made it.
Speaker 1: Yeah.
Speaker 2: I didn't let that slow me down.
Speaker 1: No, you didn't. I would have been like, oh, man,
Speaker 1: now look at what I've done. Right, and you barreled
Speaker 1: through that door and you were not even like a
Speaker 1: look at time late and you were here.
Speaker 2: Well that was thanks to Paige. I texted her in
Speaker 2: a mad rush set up my stuff. She helped me out.
Speaker 1: That is so kind. Because I looked at Page, I'm like,
Speaker 1: where is Sarah, Like she's running late. I was like,
Speaker 1: something happened.
Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah that makes sense. Yeah, it's the first time
Speaker 2: for everything.
Speaker 1: Yeah, but you still got here more than on time. Yes,
Speaker 1: that's amazing.
Speaker 2: Yeah.
Speaker 1: I just realized after I said, I'm like, something happened.
Speaker 1: I think it was something. There was something. Yeah, that's
Speaker 1: what it was. So looking back, what is something you
Speaker 1: would say to a person who says they're not a
Speaker 1: gym person.
Speaker 2: You don't know, you're not try it. I would have
Speaker 2: said I'm not a gym person. Well, I tell you
Speaker 2: I wasn't a gym person, yeah, until I was a
Speaker 2: and now I am.
Speaker 1: In your wardrobe even has started to change a little bit.
Speaker 2: I have a hard time wearing things that aren't gym clothes.
Speaker 2: That's my biggest thing now that's yeah.
Speaker 1: And like when you first started, you always were black yes,
Speaker 1: and dark colors yes, yeah, And now you're starting to
Speaker 1: venture out a little bit. It's cool to see how
Speaker 1: your confidence has changed, not just in your movement, but
Speaker 1: even with like how you present yourself and how like
Speaker 1: you talk with people. Like I always I've always seen
Speaker 1: you as a confident person. And maybe that's just me
Speaker 1: because I always assume that people know what they are
Speaker 1: and who they are in some of those contexts. So
Speaker 1: I've always seen you as someone who is confident, although
Speaker 1: when you first joined you were quieter. Yes, But now
Speaker 1: it's cool to see how your confidence has changed, like
Speaker 1: with yourself in the space with the people around you,
Speaker 1: because like you're wearing bright blue pants yes, yeah, yeah,
Speaker 1: and like you've been wearing like fitted tanks yeah, and
Speaker 1: that I'm like you're like revitalized, regenerated yeah.
Speaker 2: And yeah, like I think I said to you not
Speaker 2: that long ago, like I never would have even thought
Speaker 2: of trying anything like this ten years ago, or even
Speaker 2: even when I was a teenager. I never would have.
Speaker 2: I don't know. I just didn't feel comfortable. And I
Speaker 2: think the more that I'm coming here and I think
Speaker 2: age two, the older that I'm getting, I'm like, you
Speaker 2: know what, who cares? Do I feel good in it? Yes?
Speaker 1: So that's all that matters. Yeah, I said to you,
Speaker 1: like I was talking to Dinzey's parents yesterday. I'm like,
Speaker 1: most most of our members, our umbrella is kindness. Yes,
Speaker 1: but I also recognize that most of our members are
Speaker 1: over the age of forty, and a lot of them
Speaker 1: have similar outlooks. Doesn't matter how old you are, really,
Speaker 1: but most of the people who are over the age
Speaker 1: of forty, they come in and You're like, we just
Speaker 1: love it here because we don't have to press anybody religiously.
Speaker 1: We don't care. Yeah, like we're we don't care if
Speaker 1: we look like it. And one of the common things
Speaker 1: that I've heard lately is if I'm doing something wrong,
Speaker 1: please tell me. I'm like, oh, you know, to tell you,
Speaker 1: and I'm not going to make you feel bad.
Speaker 2: Yep.
Speaker 1: However, I know that certain personalities and also above a
Speaker 1: certain age, people are like, I'm not gonna feel embarrassed
Speaker 1: if you tell me to check my elbows into a bicep.
Speaker 2: Girl.
Speaker 1: Yeah, so that goes a long way. So off branded question.
Speaker 1: What were you like growing up? We're gonna wrap it
Speaker 1: up soon. I got two more questions. That's the second
Speaker 1: last question. What what was Sarah like growing up?
Speaker 2: Very quiet, very shy.
Speaker 1: What did you like to do? Were you a book person?
Speaker 2: Yeah, a book person. I was a figure skater.
Speaker 4: What yeah, I know, I had no idea when you think,
Speaker 4: you know, yeah, I kind of like it was in
Speaker 4: the shadows.
Speaker 2: I think like I kind of I didn't have any
Speaker 2: one specific person, but there were groups and I kind
Speaker 2: of just floated around, oh the shadows. Yeah.
Speaker 1: Were you outgoing or were you you're quiet, very quiet,
Speaker 1: very shy. Did you like to study.
Speaker 2: Well, No, one likes to study.
Speaker 1: Oh yeah, I guess yes.
Speaker 2: No, I was very like motivated and yeah, I wanted
Speaker 2: to do well for sure.
Speaker 1: Did you play sports besides figure skating? No, figure skating
Speaker 1: is so badass.
Speaker 2: Figure skating. Yeah, but then once I got to high school,
Speaker 2: I kind of quit that. I always yeah, I always
Speaker 2: felt like I wasn't an athletic person.
Speaker 1: Oh is that what you have?
Speaker 4: Yeah?
Speaker 2: At that, and I mean you just I don't know,
Speaker 2: you get to high school and you're growing up a
Speaker 2: small town, like it's just you know, there wasn't It's
Speaker 2: not like it is now where there were lots of
Speaker 2: options for kids to do.
Speaker 1: Right.
Speaker 2: I grew up in a very small town where Minden.
Speaker 1: Linden.
Speaker 2: Okay, so really the only thing that we could do
Speaker 2: when I was growing up was hockey or figure skating, right, Okay,
Speaker 2: that was that? Was it? Like maybe you could probably
Speaker 2: play baseball, was a choir or theater?
Speaker 1: No? Would you have done those anyways? I didn't think
Speaker 1: so no, no.
Speaker 2: So yeah, there wasn't a lot of options like you
Speaker 2: could do like school sports and stuff. But I was
Speaker 2: too shy and I thought that I wasn't an athletic person,
Speaker 2: so I just would never try it.
Speaker 3: Were you at home a lot or did you go
Speaker 3: out a lot? I wouldn't say I went out a lot, like.
Speaker 1: You know, some people are like, oh, they're always by
Speaker 1: the road plane like kids like Minden. So I recognized
Speaker 1: that Minden is more of like a right now anyway,
Speaker 1: is more like there's a lot of cottages and people go, y, yeah.
Speaker 2: It's cottage country for sure. So like in the summertime,
Speaker 2: I was swimming like constantly, Like we lived on a
Speaker 2: lake and so we were fishing and swimming and water
Speaker 2: skiing and like all of that.
Speaker 1: So that was I think.
Speaker 2: It's why I love summer so much. Okay, yeah, winter,
Speaker 2: you know, we'd go sledding and whatever. Okah, no'm I'm
Speaker 2: a big scaredy cat when it comes to sto stuff
Speaker 2: like that. Yeah, I just yeah, I just wasn't adventurous.
Speaker 1: And you met your husband in high school? Yes, yeah,
Speaker 1: I knew that. Okay, oh cool, Yes, who's that high First.
Speaker 2: Your friends, So we were each dating each other's friend
Speaker 2: at the time. That's how we met. So he was
Speaker 2: dating one of my friends and I was dating one
Speaker 2: of his friends.
Speaker 3: And then okay, still all friends now. No, No, we
Speaker 3: don't keep in touch.
Speaker 2: Oh once in a while if we would see them,
Speaker 2: we would say hi, but we don't keep in touch. Yeah,
Speaker 2: And then I don't really know how we came about.
Speaker 2: We just did.
Speaker 1: That's pretty neat. Yeah, fast forward, like a whole lifetime
Speaker 1: and more to go. Yeah, like kids, and twenty seven
Speaker 1: years later, twenty seven years.
Speaker 2: I was just celebrated about twenty seventh.
Speaker 1: Three universary was your anniversary July thirty?
Speaker 2: First?
Speaker 1: It was recent. Okay, okay, wow, that's a long time.
Speaker 1: Next year will be twenty eight. You're almost at thirty now,
Speaker 1: I know, a long time. That's awesome. So if you
Speaker 1: could look back at your old self, I'm just like,
Speaker 1: I'm curious because I'm like, I know you right now
Speaker 1: in this chapter, but I'm like, what were you like? Like,
Speaker 1: That's why I'm asking those questions, like just to complete
Speaker 1: somewhat of I'm.
Speaker 2: A completely different person now than I was then, Like
Speaker 2: polar opposite, I think.
Speaker 1: So looking back, if you could talk to small Sarah
Speaker 1: two different versions of Sarah. Yeah, small Sarah growing up,
Speaker 1: what would you say? And Sarah five years ago, before
Speaker 1: you own the gym, before you own the gym, before
Speaker 1: you started at the gym. Yeah, do you want to
Speaker 1: own the gym?
Speaker 2: I'm just kidding. No, I don't want to own it.
Speaker 2: I just like showing up every day. That's fair. I
Speaker 2: think small Sarah I would say try stuff like I
Speaker 2: don't know. You just had that conversation with Desica this
Speaker 2: morning about you know how kids are just so adventurous
Speaker 2: and they they don't think. They just oh that looks
Speaker 2: like fun. I'm going to try it, and they do.
Speaker 2: I wish I don't know why I felt like I couldn't,
Speaker 2: but I wish I had been a little bit more adventurous.
Speaker 2: I think being so shy that really helped me back
Speaker 2: a lot. Yeah. And five years ago, Sarah, Yeah, I
Speaker 2: wish I would have started sooner, right because I wouldn't.
Speaker 2: I didn't know how much I was going to love it.
Speaker 1: Mm hmm.
Speaker 2: And I'm really glad that I listened to the person
Speaker 2: that told me to just come and try it. I know.
Speaker 1: Yes, that's so crazy. Yeah, that's so wild. Someone someone
Speaker 1: let let out all of the branch. Yeah, and you
Speaker 1: took the ali branch. Yeah yeah yeah. Now five years
Speaker 1: later yeah, yeah, because Sarah actually came in through uh,
Speaker 1: someone who worked at the gym, yeah, way back when. Yeah,
Speaker 1: and that was your alive branch. Yeah, that's such as
Speaker 1: like just.
Speaker 2: You don't know, you don't like it, just try And
Speaker 2: I think I remember saying to her, I'm not a
Speaker 2: gym person. Just it's not me, it's not who I am.
Speaker 2: She's like, well, you don't know that just just come
Speaker 2: try it.
Speaker 1: Yeah. She gets ten points for that. Yeah, and so
Speaker 1: I did, and she was right, Oh, that's so awesome.
Speaker 1: And now here we.
Speaker 2: Are and now here we are. Yeah, and this is.
Speaker 1: Also something you can put a punch in the fitness
Speaker 1: experience belt being on.
