00:00:00
Cancer cells feed off glucose.
00:00:01
They feed off sugar.
00:00:02
Mhmm.
00:00:03
And when you're fasting, your regular cells, they feed off fat.
00:00:06
So they're taking your fat cells in their that as fuel.
00:00:09
If you just pass it one time, a multi day fast for, like, 5 days, you're 70% less chance for
00:00:15
good cancer.
00:00:15
You know?
00:00:16
Is that high?
00:00:17
Let's just say there's any possibility of that one sale, like, it's gonna it could turn.
00:00:21
It doesn't get to eat any more sugar.
00:00:23
Yeah.
00:00:24
You know, then that's it it dies off.
00:00:26
So you're starving.
00:00:26
That's right.
00:00:27
You're starving those cells.
00:00:28
I fasted 5 days before.
00:00:30
I feel like a brick hero, man.
00:00:32
I mean, I was I was feeling great.
00:00:34
I'm like, man, what
00:00:35
is
00:00:35
going on?
00:00:36
Yeah.
00:00:36
It's awesome.
00:00:37
And the only reason why I stopped was that I scared myself.
00:00:39

We tapped into that.
00:01:30
Last episode.
00:01:32
Dialogue a little bit more about that.
00:01:33
I've done some even research beyond that, but I'm super excited to tap into that and get

everyone's intake in terms of in terms of how our body performs and how our body performs a
00:01:44
high level.
00:01:45
Yeah.
00:01:45
Even with Jerome, because I left this out somewhat intentionally.
00:01:50
He's actually, a semi professional going into maybe a professional environment in pickleball.
00:01:56
The dude's a champ.
00:01:57
The dude is the dude's lighting him up on the courts.
00:02:00
I've heard his name, I remember his name quite a bit around Tampa Bay that he's just tearing
00:02:07
up the courts and he's going to go to.
00:02:09
So he's working up the ranks right now.
00:02:12
And, so, anyway Sorry, man.
00:02:13
I'm trying.
00:02:15
You're the man.

00:02:20
That's all.
00:02:21
Fair enough the game.

I feed a little bit.
00:02:24
That's it.
00:02:24
I mean, it's a growing sport, man.
00:02:26
It's like, It is insane.
00:02:28
I've only played it a couple times now, but, like, it was fun.
00:02:31
The one thing that got me, though, on it was the rules.
00:02:34
Right?
00:02:35
I I'm like, it was the same thing.
00:02:37
What what was it?
00:02:38
Uh-uh.
00:02:39
It's not anchorman.
00:02:40
What do I do with my heads?
00:02:43
It's not it.
00:02:44
We'll we'll
00:02:44
we'll we'll we'll be let's talk about that.
00:02:45
No.
00:02:46
I think I'll take it down.
00:02:49
Yeah.
00:02:50
But I'm like, I'd hit it now, but we do I go up line now?
00:02:53
Do I not?
00:02:54
Well, I
00:02:55
can't It's funny.
00:02:55
Can't go to the kitchen.
00:02:57
My, my, one of my best friends from Utah's names Adam Adam already, and he's like, He's
00:03:01
like, yeah.
00:03:02
Mees were trying to play get me to play a pickleball since 2018.
00:03:07
And I'm like, no.
00:03:08
I'm I'm a Hooper.
00:03:09
Not gonna play a pickle ball.
00:03:10
It just sounds ridiculous.
00:03:11
I'm not gonna play it.
00:03:13
That's no.
00:03:13
I'm good.
00:03:14
And so I ended up being at a it was I was at the y.
00:03:19
I finished a basketball session.
00:03:21
And I hear this click, click, click, click, click, click, like, what is this?
00:03:23
I gotta pull back the curtain.
00:03:25
I'm like, what is going on?
00:03:26
Is this tennis?
00:03:27
No?
00:03:27
Is this bad man?
00:03:28
No?
00:03:29
What is this?
00:03:29
And I just sat and watched for probably about 10 minutes and then it looked it looked fun.
00:03:35
Yeah.
00:03:35
And this old lady.
00:03:37
She's like, hey.
00:03:39
Sonny, do you wanna play?
00:03:40
You wanna play?
00:03:41
Oh, you wanna come and play?
00:03:42
Yeah.
00:03:42
Absolutely.
00:03:44
I'm like, what is this?
00:03:44
She's like, oh, this is pickleball.
00:03:46
And I'm like, oh, oh, this, oh, this is pickleball.
00:03:50
And then, I
00:03:51
mean, this this this other this other old lady was just I don't wanna mention new names.
00:03:56
She might hear this.
00:03:57
Actually, her name is Marlene.
00:03:58
She is 83.
00:04:00
Yeah.
00:04:00
And she's amazing.
00:04:02
She is absolutely amazing.
00:04:04
It crushes it, but she kinda has, like, this little arrogance about her.
00:04:08
Like, she knows she's good.
00:04:09
Played, pick a ball for 50 years.
00:04:10
You know what I mean?
00:04:11
So she knows she's like, you know, swag.
00:04:13
She has some serious swag.
00:04:14
And I went in there with my athleticism thinking I'm gonna dominate.
00:04:18
No.
00:04:19
She's just placing it and it was like the whole time, I'm like, you know what?
00:04:22
I have to be able to be a three year old Marlene.
00:04:26
That's the goal.
00:04:27
That's my goal.
00:04:28
That is it.
00:04:28
And once I got that goal, that was, like, my first step.
00:04:33
It's like How long how long has she been playing Pega Ball?
00:04:36
Oh, she's been playing for her.
00:04:37
She's she's she has a tennis background for, like, over 50 years, she's been playing way.
00:04:42
I mean, years years.
00:04:43
Yeah.
00:04:43
She's been playing for a while.
00:04:44
Yeah.
00:04:45
Yeah.
00:04:45
So that then leads into do you do you ever ask her what her nutrition is?
00:04:51
You know, she looks pretty fit.
00:04:54
I I haven't talked to her about nutrition, but You know, like, I was talking with you about
00:05:00
the show that I watched the game changers.
00:05:02
And this has been boiling for, like, simmering for a long time.
00:05:06
Yeah.
00:05:06
This this thought about eating, your vegetables or eat your vegetables, man.
00:05:11
They're good for you.
00:05:12
I never heard anybody say, hey.
00:05:14
Don't eat your vegetables.
00:05:15
They're bad.
00:05:15
For you.
00:05:16
Of course, there are, you know, some there are some vegetables out there nightshades and
00:05:19
things like that.
00:05:20
They're like, hey.
00:05:20
You shouldn't eat too many tomatoes.
00:05:21
You shouldn't eat too many eggplants or whatever because, you know, it calls
00:05:25
inflammation.
00:05:25
Yeah.
00:05:25
Who knows?
00:05:26
But for the most part, vegetables and that type of way of eating is really good.
00:05:32
I have a friend.
00:05:34
Courtney, who who's a vegetarian, or maybe he's a pescatarian there.
00:05:38
Well, what's the one of the it's a e fish.
00:05:40
Were they?
00:05:40
Pescatarian.
00:05:41
Pescatarian.
00:05:43
Pescatarian.
00:05:44
And so oh, he doesn't need eggs.
00:05:46
Oh, he doesn't need eggs?
00:05:47
Okay.
00:05:48
And, and another friend of mine, doctor doctor Jude, he, was telling me about this pescatarian
00:05:54
diet that he's on.
00:05:55
He's like, Jerome.
00:05:55
I've been playing soccer, and he's 5352.
00:05:58
He's like, man, I've been crushing it.
00:06:00
I've just been it's amazing.
00:06:01
I have no, like, no inflammation, no anything, and I'm running around faster than guys.
00:06:05
I get I have so much energy.
00:06:07
And this is right before I watch that Netflix episode
00:06:10
Yeah.
00:06:11
Of
00:06:11
the game changers.
00:06:12
So with my, and my my total background, not take too much of my total background is, you
00:06:18
know, I'm a pastor.
00:06:19
I'm a
00:06:19
pastor as well.
00:06:20
Right?
00:06:20
So, it's for me, it's interesting because I'm I'm I'm looking at this from like, a biblical
00:06:29
world view in a way where it's like, okay.
00:06:32
You have things like the Daniel fast.
00:06:33
And in the in the Bible, you know, and, I think it might be proverbs I think his progress 23 is
00:06:40
like, hey.
00:06:41
You know, do not trust this man.
00:06:42
Do not, you know, if he if he or if you're in front of a ruler, you know, don't eat his
00:06:46
delicacies and all these different things and And Daniel Bass is like, you know, he doesn't
00:06:50
eat, you know, you don't eat meat.
00:06:53
You don't drink any wine and these other things and it's just like beans and seeds and lentils
00:06:57
and all the things.
00:06:57
And I'm like, this is so basically, I could vegetarian.
00:07:02
So then I I dive a little deep And I started thinking to myself.
00:07:06
Alright.
00:07:07
So in the beginning, right, just I'm like, okay.
00:07:10
God, great, man.
00:07:11
We'll be out of the league and all the things and was Adam and Eve.
00:07:15
Like, were they, like, killing squirrels and and and and edium?
00:07:19
You know what I mean?
00:07:20
Like, were I mean, he just named all the animals.
00:07:23
Right?
00:07:23
God gave him somebody to name all in and provisioned, and you name all the animals.
00:07:27
He names, and he's like, you know what?
00:07:28
I'm gonna eat you chicken.
00:07:29
Like, was he doing that?
00:07:30
I I, you know, you
00:07:32
know, I mean, you look delicious here.
00:07:34
You're gonna be calling all that, bro.
00:07:35
And and and I'm gonna and I'm gonna you on a Barbie.
00:07:38
You know, you know, I know you know what I mean?
00:07:39
I don't know.
00:07:41
I'm I'm pretty confident that's not what was happening until the fall happened.
00:07:44
And then now you have animals, killing other animals, you know, there's conflict within the
00:07:49
animal kingdom.
00:07:50
There's conflict within the, you know, human beings.
00:07:53
There's conflict with with with everything.
00:07:55
Right?
00:07:56
So then I'm that kinda is just sitting with me.
00:07:58
And I'm like, and then, you know, you can get more into what you thought about the
00:08:03
documentary and and just the conspiracy theories and all the things with meats and all
00:08:08
the all that.
00:08:09
But it just makes me I I'd put all that aside because there's people on both camps that say,
00:08:14
hey.
00:08:14
You know, vegetarian is the way to go.
00:08:16
Hey.
00:08:17
Just eating the carnivore diet, man.
00:08:18
I lost weight.
00:08:20
Pastor Mitch was on the carnivore diet for a while.
00:08:23
And he had, like, a little thyroid issue.
00:08:26
Gone.
00:08:27
Yeah.
00:08:27
Gone because, you know, that, and he's like, yeah.
00:08:29
I just had meat and honey and and something else.
00:08:34
He said, and some berries.
00:08:35
And and now he feels amazing.
00:08:37
Yeah.
00:08:38
Possibly.
00:08:38
So it's the
00:08:39
same thing.
00:08:39
We're talking about last
00:08:40
episode.
00:08:40
Jordan Peterson.
00:08:41
Yeah.
00:08:41
Same thing.
00:08:41
Yeah.
00:08:42
So, yeah, Jordan Peterson was, like, and have I know he's talked about the carnival then it's
00:08:45
like, well, well, who's, you know, what's what?
00:08:48
Mhmm.
00:08:48
You know, so that's something that you have to kinda I kinda have to view through the scope
00:08:53
and use discernment to to see.
00:08:55
Yeah.
00:08:56
Yeah.
00:08:56
Yeah.
00:08:57
Yeah.
00:08:57
One big thing that, I just did a little bit of research on.
00:09:00
Alfie actually sent me a couple podcasts And then I actually watched a documentary on the
00:09:04
backside of that, which, like, really gave me, a not round view because it was, talking about
00:09:13
blue zones.
00:09:14
And so he went into I think he went into about 8 different blue zones.
00:09:19
And so it was essentially living to 100.
00:09:21
So it's Centarians.
00:09:22
He wanted to see how they ate.
00:09:24
Right?
00:09:25
And majority of the Centarians that that that they found were more, like, like, heavily
00:09:30
heavily skewed towards, like, a plant based environment.
00:09:33
Yeah.
00:09:33
Lighter, carbohydrates.
00:09:34
Now there was a, like, a bunch of other different factors.
00:09:38
Right?
00:09:39
They didn't also, like, move at the capacity of which, like, we move.
00:09:44
Not in blue zones.
00:09:46
Mhmm.
00:09:46
And the reason why they were in blue zones is definitely was more of a it was it was
00:09:51
protected.
00:09:52
It's they didn't have a bunch of commerce.
00:09:55
Right?
00:09:55
Things were, like, grown there.
00:09:57
Like, it was almost a made conducive to their environment that they lived.
00:10:00
Yeah.
00:10:00
And the culture, a lot of family.
00:10:03
Like, you know, there was there was various things that kinda came into play, but there
00:10:08
they were heavily based towards, like, the plant plant based association.
00:10:12
Now there was, Greece.
00:10:14
Greece had one of them.
00:10:15
And so that one, like, really interested the interest in me the most because I was like,
00:10:23
that one is light meat.
00:10:24
Right?
00:10:24
They still ate meat.
00:10:25
They incorporated, but there was a lot of phytonutrients that they had their body.
00:10:30
Yeah.
00:10:31
And so you had the phytonutrients, but then you also had the carnivorous side of the you know,
00:10:38
they had a mean steaks, but it wasn't, like, in abundance where they ate it three times a day.
00:10:42
Right?
00:10:42
They maybe had one time a day or maybe it was every other day.
00:10:46
But it was a it was a lighter focus.
00:10:49
Another thing that, that I thought was really, really important was this other blue zone out
00:10:54
of Japan.
00:10:56
And I was talking about this in a previous episode, they had this motto of stop at 80%
00:11:01
full.
00:11:02
And I thought that was interesting because I think a lot of times what we see in our body
00:11:08
and Alfie, you can touch touch into this even more.
00:11:11
But as we we talked about this, how we overfill our body at the capacity of which we need to.
00:11:17
Yeah.
00:11:18
And that's where the inflammation comes into play.
00:11:21
We never give our gut, a rest.
00:11:23
It's always being overworked, and then more inflammation comes in their body.
00:11:27
And hence, it has work against itself.
00:11:29
Yeah.
00:11:29
And I so there was arguments on both sides that you sent me, a couple podcasts that I looked
00:11:35
into.
00:11:36
And I think that's ultimately what I came upon was like, I have to I have to look at it as am
00:11:42
I feeding myself too much am I putting into my body?
00:11:45
No.
00:11:46
Right?
00:11:46
Am I feeding my because there is a thing, am I feeding myself too much steak?
00:11:50
Right?
00:11:50
Because that can work against me Yeah.
00:11:52
And become inflammatory.
00:11:54
Rather than me being that kind of like the 80% which is this what what the Japanese found is
00:12:00
like a sweet spot within their culture Right.
00:12:02
Specifically that that that blue zone.
00:12:05
Super interesting.
00:12:05
I would recommend everyone, for that documentary too, but called?
00:12:09
It was, I believe it was called living to 100.
00:12:12
Oh, yeah.
00:12:13
Yes.
00:12:13
Uh-huh.
00:12:14
Yeah.
00:12:14
Like, understanding blue zone.
00:12:16
Yeah.
00:12:16
And
00:12:16
so he had, like, 8 of them, but what are your thoughts?
00:12:19
Yeah.
00:12:19
I think a lot of those blue zones, they're growing their own food.
00:12:21
Right?
00:12:22
Or they're they're like you said off the land, So you're not getting this commercial
00:12:26
agriculture that's like we talked about before, bro.
00:12:28
And then I harp on with people as, like, sprayed.
00:12:30
So heavily chemical sprayed and preserved.
00:12:33
That way it can sit on the shelf in the grocery store for a week when normally that should
00:12:37
start going bad in, like, a few hours.
00:12:38
Right?
00:12:39
So they're constantly picking and eating their food you're to your point with the movement,
00:12:43
bro, they're not doing CrossFit workouts and and these insane things that we beat down our
00:12:47
bodies with, they walk.
00:12:49
They just walk.
00:12:50
It's light impact, but they are moving their bodies a lot.
00:12:52
Oh, majority of them are like, you were walking always moving.
00:12:56
Yeah.
00:12:56
So, you know, those two factors, I think, are big.
00:12:58
Mhmm.
00:12:59
And then I think one of the bigger things they touch on with the blue zones is their
00:13:02
community.
00:13:03
Like, they have dinner together every night.
00:13:05
It's like whether it's family or like an entire, like, little society that they're all
00:13:09
just always together and that that, the positive benefits of that is is a huge factor
00:13:15
to the longevity.
00:13:16
Right?
00:13:17
Isn't that something isn't that something you do with, NV3 and church too?
00:13:22
Is that, like, you kinda bring that, there isn't that you have dinner night, don't you,
00:13:26
where you cultivate that?
00:13:27
Yeah.
00:13:28
I'm in a food and community.
00:13:29
Community is like, I mean, that's it's huge.
00:13:32
That's what people are wanting people are like, that's why people get that's why people in
00:13:36
CrossFit, they come together because it's the community.
00:13:38
Right?
00:13:38
Like, it's like people like CrossFit is my church and it's like, well, it's it's you need
00:13:42
you need more than community, but, yeah, that's that's huge.
00:13:45
That's just a longevity and and and those things of those nature.
00:13:46
I I I definitely agree with that.
00:13:50
But it's interesting when you're talking about blue zones Mhmm.
00:13:53
Like, can you can you explain that a little bit, like, what blue zones are?
00:13:57
Yeah.
00:13:58
So blue zones, like his definition, I think he had 8 parameters at which he touched on because
00:14:03
what he did was he went into 1, and then he would like he would check off, like, things
00:14:08
that he thought were pillars within their society to create create it.
00:14:10
But one of the heat he measured it on how many people lived to a 100.
00:14:17
Right?
00:14:17
Gotcha.
00:14:17
And and not even just a 100, but, like, it was a 100 with an active life.
00:14:24
Like, if you if you if you were living to a 100 and you were just like, you know, not doing
00:14:28
anything.
00:14:28
Like falling out.
00:14:29
Yeah.
00:14:30
He was he went in and he wanted to talk to a hundred year olds that were still hopping up on
00:14:34
a horse.
00:14:35
Right?
00:14:35
There was this guy in a in a I think it was like, Costa Rica.
00:14:39
Which I heard Costa Rica.
00:14:40
It's like beautiful, but he had this guy.
00:14:44
He was 102, and I'm not joking around.
00:14:46
He had, like, leader hosing on.
00:14:48
He's hopping up on horse.
00:14:49
He was a small little guy.
00:14:50
Hopped up.
00:14:51
He was hurting cattle.
00:14:52
I'm like, that is crazy.
00:14:54
I wanna be that guy at 102.
00:14:56
Right?
00:14:57
You know what's interesting?
00:14:58
When you're talking about the 80 percent, 100%.
00:15:01
And, yeah, because our culture is just indulged.
00:15:03
Like, everything big, get big, everything, big trucks,
00:15:04
big house, big food, big steak feasting.
00:15:09
You know what I mean?
00:15:10
Like, that's that's how we that's how we eat.
00:15:11
And then we, yeah, memories eat, and thanksgiving's come up.
00:15:14
And then I'm gonna eat, and I'm just gonna lay out and pass out.
00:15:17
And it's like that's just like our our our culture.
00:15:21
That is like that is like the the the mainframe of the society that we live in, right, here in
00:15:26
America.
00:15:27
And I I just I think about NASCAR.
00:15:30
You guys know NASCAR.
00:15:31
Because I just mentioned it because you you at Talladega Knights, and
00:15:36
Rickie bought it out too with my hands.
00:15:39
But it's interesting.
00:15:40
You know, They fill the gas, the fuel.
00:15:43
They give it just enough for the labs that
00:15:45
they need.
00:15:45
Like, they don't over they don't fill
00:15:45
it to the
00:15:50
top.
00:15:50
Because it won't be as efficient.
00:15:52
And
00:15:52
it's like, we only need the fuel for the for the day.
00:15:57
Right?
00:15:57
It's
00:15:57
awesome.
00:15:57
I love that.
00:15:58
And and so when I'm thinking about that, so often, but most people, like, we we don't do
00:16:04
intermittent fasting or, first of all, we don't do any type of fasting at all.
00:16:07
I will tell you this.
00:16:09
I fasted 5 days before, and it was the most amazing, not just, like, spiritually.
00:16:17
Physically
00:16:18
Yeah.
00:16:18
I feel like a superhero, man.
00:16:20
Clean.
00:16:20
Yeah.
00:16:21
I feel like now the 1st day was tough because you're going through those, you know,
00:16:24
withdrawals.
00:16:25
Like, man, I need Foover.
00:16:27
You know, I'm like, no.
00:16:27
I can make it, you know, it's Yeah.
00:16:29
And have myself, like, low, small coffee.
00:16:31
Right.
00:16:31
You know, yeah.
00:16:32
You know, hangry.
00:16:32
Then the next day, you're like, you know, but all of a sudden, that 3rd day after 24, after
00:16:38
48 hours, that 3rd, 4th, and 5th day, I was like, man.
00:16:43
I mean, I was playing hoops.
00:16:45
I crossed somebody up, hit a game winner, and I went out and ran.
00:16:48
And, I mean, I was I was feeling great.
00:16:50
I'm like, man, what
00:16:50
is what
00:16:51
is going on?
00:16:52
Yeah.
00:16:52
It's awesome.
00:16:52
The only reason why I stopped was that I scared myself.
00:16:55
I was like, I should've feel like this.
00:16:57
I'm all because, you know, I mean, like, like, when you when you hear about fasting and Jesus
00:17:01
talks about it too and in Matthew's like, don't be like the Hippo Chris that fast.
00:17:05
And then they show everybody like, oh, I'm so tired and no one would've knew even knew that I
00:17:10
was fasting then.
00:17:10
You would
00:17:11
not have you would not have known.
00:17:12
Was that water only?
00:17:14
Water only.
00:17:15
Water only.
00:17:15
Wow.
00:17:15
I think that I have coffee.
00:17:21

00:17:36
Lead the on limits, baby.
00:17:43
I might have had coffee.
00:17:45
I mean, either way.
00:17:46
So it
00:17:47
was it
00:17:47
was mainly 5 days is
00:17:48
It was mainly water.
00:17:49
It
00:17:50
wasn't even coffee every day.
00:17:51
It was it was water with, a little bit of pinch of, like, Himalayan salt.
00:17:55
Okay.
00:17:56
Okay.
00:17:56
Luckily.
00:17:57
And I'm trying to tell you, like, I felt amazing.
00:18:00
And then what happened was it was day 5, and I dragged I'm at £203 And I dropped down to 187.
00:18:08
Wow.
00:18:09
And I was like, woah.
00:18:11
I'm 187.
00:18:12
I'm like, oh my god.
00:18:13
I wanna start Like, I don't wanna I don't wanna get anything.
00:18:18
I feel I didn't feel like, you know, and I've I've read I've read on this, like, day 6, 7, 8,
00:18:24
9.
00:18:24
You just feel I felt normal.
00:18:27
Mhmm.
00:18:27
I was just like, I'm losing I'm a £187.
00:18:30
I got feel like I can keep going.
00:18:33
Yeah.
00:18:33
And those hunger those hunger pains, they would be, you know, every 2 hours and every 4th and
00:18:37
every 6th and, like, 6 for every 6 hours.
00:18:41
I feel like, man, if I'm hungry right now, that eats something, you know, and it'd be the last,
00:18:45
like, 20 minutes.
00:18:46
Yeah.
00:18:46
And then it was gone.
00:18:47
Kinda goes away.
00:18:48
Yeah.
00:18:48
It got it was gone.
00:18:49
It was 20 minutes and gone, and I'm good for another 6 hours.
00:18:51
And I was like, oh, yeah.
00:18:53
I have an 8.
00:18:53
I have an 8 since Sunday.
00:18:55
It's a Sunday afternoon.
00:18:57
Oh my goodness.
00:18:58
It's it's it's Thursday night right now.
00:19:02
It was going on.
00:19:03
Alright.
00:19:03
I thought you were about that.
00:19:04
You said, bro.
00:19:07
I'm like, man, you know what?
00:19:08
I'm this is this is a good experience for me.
00:19:11
And I've also there's one more thing I wanna say.
00:19:14
I've also at this.
00:19:16
So cancer cells.
00:19:18
Right?
00:19:19
Cancer cells feed off glucose.
00:19:22
Yep.
00:19:22
Right?
00:19:22
So they feed off they feed off sugar.
00:19:24
Mhmm.
00:19:24
And when you're fasting, right, your regular cells, they feed off fat.
00:19:29
So they're taking your fat cells and they're using as fuel.
00:19:33
And I can't remember what doctor said this, but, he was saying if if people fasted just
00:19:41
well, just if you just pass it one time, a multi day fast for, like, 5 days, your 70%
00:19:47
chance of not getting cancer.
00:19:49
Let's do a good cancer.
00:19:50
Yeah.
00:19:50
You know?
00:19:51
That high.
00:19:51
Is that high?
00:19:52
Yeah.
00:19:52
I mean, because if there's let's just say there's any possibility that one sale, like, is
00:19:56
gonna it could turn.
00:19:57
Yeah.
00:19:58
You know, and it doesn't get to eat any more sugar.
00:20:01
Yeah.
00:20:02
You know, and that's it it dies off.
00:20:04
So you're starving.
00:20:05
That's right.
00:20:05
You're starving those cells.
00:20:06
That's cool.
00:20:07
So and it's just, you know, it makes you think about, like, people who have cancer.
00:20:11
Again, you need to eat some food.
00:20:12
Here, have some, you know, have some fries.
00:20:14
You know what I mean?
00:20:15
Have some McDonald's like, let's get you let's get you eating.
00:20:17
It's like, maybe they shouldn't eat.
00:20:20
Yeah.
00:20:20
You know what I mean?
00:20:20
Like, maybe they shouldn't eat for
00:20:22
a little
00:20:22
bit and and just you know, eat things, you know, maybe eat avocado or some things like
00:20:26
that, but, you know, are some nuts and seeds and things that don't have sugar in it.
00:20:31
So that's something to think about too.
00:20:32
You know?
00:20:32
Yeah.
00:20:33
Strict autophagy is huge.
00:20:34
And we just talked about that in, last episode.
00:20:37
Well, it's wild.
00:20:38
So I did this.
00:20:40
I put in chat GPT if everyone in America, I think we have do we have about 144
00:20:47
people, or is it
00:20:48
more than that?
00:20:49
I think it's 327.
00:20:51
Okay.
00:20:52
What whatever the number is of Americans.
00:20:54
Right?
00:20:55
I think you're wrong.
00:20:55
Some were 320 something, I think.
00:20:57
I realized, like, every American, I should have done it as a delta.
00:21:01
Like, let say 20% because I mean, the the reality is there's people that are hungry in
00:21:04
America.
00:21:05
Right?
00:21:05
Yeah.
00:21:05
But, like, I put every single American.
00:21:07
So let's say 330 Americans, whatever that number was because I did Google search it.
00:21:12
But then I I put in, like, if they gave up one meal a day, right, how many calories would that
00:21:19
reduce?
00:21:19
Okay.
00:21:19
Like, at 1 meal a day for 1 month, for just 1 month, you gave up 1 meal a day every single
00:21:24
American.
00:21:25
Right?
00:21:25
It was 4 teen calories.
00:21:28
So, like, that they would give up in their diet because the average American diet right now is
00:21:31
35100 calories.
00:21:32
Yeah.
00:21:32
So
00:21:32
that would basically bring it down to a, like, a standard 2000 calorie diet.
00:21:36
Get this.
00:21:36
It was about 14 calories.
00:21:39
Do you know how many meals would be saved in a given year?
00:21:42
If the if everyone did that for 1 month out of the year?
00:21:46
320 times 30.
00:21:48
Yeah.
00:21:48
So it's like 2 meals.
00:21:50
Yeah.
00:21:51
2 meals would be saved.
00:21:53
And
00:21:53
so then then it then it will, like, came a chain of thoughts.
00:21:57
Right?
00:21:57
Because when I was watching the game changer, one of the big things is is that they have the
00:22:02
reason why we have to produce so many cattle is because we eat so many cattle.
00:22:08
Right?
00:22:08
Yeah.
00:22:09
Yeah.
00:22:09
Like, you know what I mean?
00:22:10
We, like, not too many people fast because we're constantly eating.
00:22:14
Right?
00:22:14
Right.
00:22:15
So I was like, dude, if if more words could get out, right, or there was a month dedicated,
00:22:21
hey.
00:22:22
This is our fasting month, right, to give up one meal.
00:22:24
We can save so many meals.
00:22:27
It's and it wouldn't be people shelling out Yeah.
00:22:30
Money.
00:22:31
It would be like, we don't we could we could actually save cattle.
00:22:34
We could grow them maybe a little bit better.
00:22:37
You'd save so much.
00:22:38
You'd save cattle.
00:22:39
You'd save you'd save money.
00:22:41
You'd save, I mean, first of all, like, your liver Like, your liver is always working.
00:22:46
Yep.
00:22:47
Right?
00:22:47
So, I mean, it it it's like your liver never gets a can any livers have a break and have a
00:22:51
smoke You know what I mean?
00:22:52
Can I just, you know, for a second?
00:22:53
He's like,
00:22:54
it never it never can can I just get, like, a 15 minute?
00:22:57
You know, I was like, please.
00:22:58
And I was like, if you're eating every every you know, 4 hours, 5 hours, 6 hours, you you
00:23:04
never even if it's you sleep and you eat, and it's only 8 hours, I think it's 12 hours that
00:23:08
your liver needs before it, you know, goes through everything and it actually gets to just
00:23:14
rest.
00:23:14
Yeah.
00:23:14
Mhmm.
00:23:15
And so we never just think about being, I'm forty three years old.
00:23:19
And, like, I've never given my liver arrest.
00:23:21
My liver's just just plowing away.
00:23:22
Just just just plowing away.
00:23:24
Like, there's just more inventory coming, more inventory coming, more inventory coming.
00:23:28
This is where a top of you comes in because this is like, you know, it's it's just like
00:23:32
being in a room in your bedroom and there's just shipments of of clothes.
00:23:36
It just keeps on coming in and socks and coming in in socks and shirts and socks and shirts.
00:23:39
And it's like, man, it just keeps on piling up and you're like, well, I guess I'll wear this
00:23:43
or, you know, like, the analogy breaks down, but it's it's it's like your bite will just use
00:23:47
whatever.
00:23:48
If it's wood Right.
00:23:49
It's
00:23:49
not gonna use, like, really good oak because it's gonna be like, this Let's just use this
00:23:53
and we'll build, like, little repair muscle with with this crappy piece of wire.
00:23:56
Yeah.
00:23:56
Scrap.
00:23:57
You know, you know, but when but when you're, like, when you're actually fasting, your body's
00:24:04
like, man, you know what?
00:24:05
It gets picky.
00:24:06
Alright, man.
00:24:06
I don't know when I don't know when the next shipment's shipment's gonna come in.
00:24:09
Yeah.
00:24:09
Rome was like clockwork every 3 hours, but now things going on.
00:24:12
And so, you know, we haven't had a shipment in 6, 7, 8, 9 hours.
00:24:16
So let me, you know, we gotta be more picky.
00:24:17
We gotta get the best I need the best wood to repair this muscle.
00:24:20
I need the best, you know, the best nutrients to to repair this muscle damage over here.
00:24:25
And so, I mean, that right.
00:24:28
I mean, I think it would solve just by downstream.
00:24:32
It just solves so many issues, like, internally.
00:24:36
And, you know, with the cancer cells and all the things, there's there's there's there's
00:24:39
that avenue.
00:24:40
There's avenue with saving money.
00:24:41
You know how much money I've been saving?
00:24:43
Yeah.
00:24:43
Breakfast.
00:24:44
Yeah.
00:24:44
I love it, bro.
00:24:46
Like, man, I'm in
00:24:47
Is that crazy?
00:24:48
Yeah.
00:24:48
Man, you save money.
00:24:48
I wish if I'm going out like, man, I'm gonna go you know, daily eats or something like that.
00:24:52
And then that's fifteen bucks right there.
00:24:54
And then, you know, busy times, you know, you know, whatever 4 days a week.
00:24:57
You know?
00:24:57
And then, you know, add that up weak
00:25:00
for real.
00:25:00
Yeah.
00:25:00
So hot.
00:25:01
Right?
00:25:02
It's craziness.
00:25:03
It's wild.
00:25:03
Single lessons for my daughter.
00:25:05
You know what I mean?
00:25:06
Yeah.
00:25:06
That's
00:25:06
right.
00:25:06
Yeah.
00:25:07
Yeah.
00:25:07
You know?
00:25:07
Yeah.
00:25:08
So Not a doubt.
00:25:09
Without a doubt.
00:25:10
What are you, I know you were talking about too.
00:25:12
You gave you some really clear examples in terms of I love it.
00:25:17
I'm gonna go to this a little bit, how the gut processes, and it's, like, then that filter
00:25:22
source of, like, of creating the, you know, feeding off those micronutrients to rest of the
00:25:28
body and how the cells work.
00:25:30
Talking to that a little bit.
00:25:32
Yeah.
00:25:32
I mean, that's the concept he just touched on and and we touched on a little bit on the last
00:25:35
episode is the the hitting the set button, man.
00:25:38
Mhmm.
00:25:38
If you're constantly bringing stuff in, there is waste being generated.
00:25:42
Every cellular process creates waste every time we break down a nutrient to break into the
00:25:47
bloodstream and go, there's waste.
00:25:48
Right?
00:25:48
Everything creates waste.
00:25:49
How do you get that waste out?
00:25:50
Your body has to do it.
00:25:51
Right?
00:25:52
That's the autophagy.
00:25:53
But it can't do that if it's like, hey, we got new stuff coming in Right?
00:25:56
Yeah.
00:25:56
Sure thing.
00:25:57
I paid it to the visual because, like, as a kid bought, hated, like, folding my laundry, like,
00:26:01
I would just pile it
00:26:01
up, dude.
00:26:02
And, like, I was like, oh, god.
00:26:04
That's inside my body.
00:26:05
You know, like, I just hate that.
00:26:06
That triggered a little bit.
00:26:07
That's not important.
00:26:08
But, like, that's true, man.
00:26:10
It's like your body has to has to prioritize, and it's gonna prioritize, like, what's most
00:26:15
efficient and what's kinda best for it.
00:26:17
You know?
00:26:18
So we touched last time, man, about, about being, like, metabolically flexible and and the
00:26:23
fear people have around, like, being hungry.
00:26:25
Yeah.
00:26:25
And they fear people fear it.
00:26:26
Right?
00:26:26
And so much of this is this, like, this money
00:26:28
driven narrative of
00:26:28
our country to sell
00:26:29
food
00:26:32
products.
00:26:32
Right?
00:26:33
Like, you gotta eat breakfast.
00:26:34
It's the most important meal of the day.
00:26:35
Yep.
00:26:35
You gotta eat a snack between breakfast and lunch.
00:26:38
What does
00:26:38
that what does that mean though that you eat breakfast?
00:26:40
Like, breakfast is actually breakfast.
00:26:42
Yeah.
00:26:43
It's not like, you
00:26:43
gotta eat at 8 o'clock.
00:26:44
Hurry, not as breakfast.
00:26:45
It's like, my my breakfast is at 3.
00:26:48
Yeah.
00:26:48
You know?
00:26:48
Yeah.
00:26:48
It can be.
00:26:49
Yeah.
00:26:49
Yeah.
00:26:50
Yeah.
00:26:51
It's interesting.
00:26:53
I I was thinking of, like, the the supply coming in.
00:26:55
You ever been to a dirty restaurant?
00:26:57
You know?
00:26:58
And it's like, you know, it's Unfortunately.
00:27:00
You know, like, it it's just the best one to do.
00:27:02
Yeah.
00:27:02
It's like it is, but there's like flies on it.
00:27:04
You know what I mean?
00:27:05
And it's just it hasn't been wiped down.
00:27:07
Because the food is great.
00:27:09
Right?
00:27:10
But there's only 4 workers, and there's a line of people.
00:27:13
Yeah.
00:27:13
You know?
00:27:13
And it's like, they they they don't have time to clean.
00:27:17
So at at some point, like, when before you open or whatever or the first, you know, right for
00:27:24
lunch when it's, like, 9 o'clock especially if it's a lunch, we're gonna say, like, Fresh
00:27:27
Kitchen, for example.
00:27:28
You know?
00:27:28
And it's, like, they open at they open at Tim and always really coming at Timney much.
00:27:32
They they they come at 12.
00:27:35
Right?
00:27:35
Like, wipe down the tables, clean everything.
00:27:38
Make everything.
00:27:38
Like, that, like, that's the top of you to me.
00:27:40
Yeah.
00:27:41
Like, clean everything down.
00:27:42
Like, give your give yourself a rate because you only have 4 work.
00:27:45
You only have a certain amount of, you know, I can't process all the stuff coming in and and
00:27:49
clean regular we all of our focuses on
00:27:52
Yeah.
00:27:52
Processing the shipment coming in.
00:27:54
Right?
00:27:54
So
00:27:54
it's like, it's, to me, it's like the same thing with a dirty restaurant.
00:27:57
It's like, you know, you guys need to win there's downtime, right, when there's fasting
00:28:02
time.
00:28:02
Mhmm.
00:28:03
Like, clean everything.
00:28:03
And then we can actually see, like, you know, and then if everything's cleaned and cleared,
00:28:09
then everything's less cluttered, and things less cluttered in here.
00:28:12
You know what I mean?
00:28:12
Like
00:28:13
And it just feels better then.
00:28:14
Right?
00:28:14
Yeah.
00:28:14
I think it tastes great now.
00:28:15
You go in.
00:28:16
The food tastes good.
00:28:17
You're in there.
00:28:18

00:30:11
Oh, I just did a 4 minute, 5 minute play.
00:30:13
We didn't die.
00:30:13
Oh, I didn't know I could do that.
00:30:15
No.
00:30:15
I know I can
00:30:16
It's
00:30:16
the same thing with food.
00:30:17
If we don't eat, like, right now, we're we will die.
00:30:20
And it's like, it's only been 8 hours.
00:30:22
You're fine.
00:30:23
It's been a day.

You're right, Jerome.
00:30:26
We made it to 2 days, but we ain't gonna make it to we will die.
00:30:29
And then you do day 3 day, 4 day file.
00:30:31
Oh my goodness.
00:30:31
So now my body's like, Okay.
00:30:34
This is familiar.
00:30:35
Yeah.
00:30:35
You know, and it is.
00:30:37
It's a it's a if we could say no and we could I mean, we control our buy right, like, our mind
00:30:44
controls by our our when we think, like, I'm gonna turn and talk to Albie.
00:30:47
Cool.
00:30:47
I'm gonna turn and talk to you.
00:30:48
I'm gonna Like, it's my mind telling my body what to do.
00:30:52
Right?
00:30:52
So, but so often, we let our bodies control our mind.
00:30:57
Right?
00:30:58
Like, I can control.
00:31:00
I I can breathe and breathing is a perfect example because, you know, I can breathe so you
00:31:05
can work out your time.
00:31:07
Yeah.
00:31:07
Oh, I used to just run it.
00:31:09
I can't.
00:31:09
I can't.
00:31:10
It's like, hey.
00:31:11
Hey.
00:31:11
Hey.
00:31:12
Hey.
00:31:12
Breathe, you know, is that your mouth?
00:31:14
I can't just look.
00:31:15
Watch me.
00:31:16
A panic mode.
00:31:17
Yeah.
00:31:18
That's what I tell you.
00:31:20
Smoke flowers and blow up the candles.
00:31:23
It's like, that easy.
00:31:24
And then all of a sudden, your body's and then everything relax.
00:31:26
It's like, everything follows the head.
00:31:28
Right?
00:31:29
Like, when I used to run the 400, Like, and this is a perfect example when you're running
00:31:33
in that last 100, like, you just feel the monkey jump on your back and you're dying and
00:31:37
you're like, you start straining your neck and it's like, I coach you always listen no no
00:31:41
swingy leg.
00:31:42
Like, and your body will follow what your head does.
00:31:44
So if you start growing like this and and straining, then this do you test a period
00:31:49
appear than your whole body's sitting up and you're like, I will never make it to the finish
00:31:52
line because this is gonna take, like, 2 minutes to get fifty yards, but it's like,
00:31:57
okay.
00:31:57
I feel that is creeping up, you know, that lactic acid creeping up, I'm just gonna I'm not
00:32:02
gonna focus.
00:32:03
I'm not gonna focus on that.
00:32:04
Yeah.
00:32:04
This is where I ignore the bite.
00:32:06
And I'm just on my breathing.
00:32:08
We gotta do the same thing with our stomachs.
00:32:10
Yeah.
00:32:10
We gotta ignore our stomachs.
00:32:12
Mhmm.
00:32:12
Like, you know, oh, man, stomach's talking.
00:32:15
I gotta Mhmm.
00:32:16
Right.
00:32:16
No.
00:32:17
You can wait.
00:32:18
No.
00:32:18
We're gonna wait.
00:32:19
We're not gonna eat because you want it too bad.
00:32:20
That's why.
00:32:22
Yeah.
00:32:22
Yeah.
00:32:22
Yeah.
00:32:22

00:32:31
Right?
00:32:31
You gotta parent that you gotta parent
00:32:32

00:32:33
And then when you ignore when you ignore yours, your, like, your your stomach, you know, a
00:32:37
little whiningness.
00:32:38
Yeah.
00:32:39
You know, my I have a little daughter.

Disciplined.
00:34:02
That's a big thing too.
00:34:03
It's like the power of your subconscious mind, bro.
00:34:05
Subconscious mind.

So it's
00:34:10
like you subconsciously make decisions.
00:34:12

But you can use your conscious mind to override it.
00:34:15

Eventually, your your subconscious mind will listen.
00:34:22
It's like, we don't eat before bed.
00:34:23
That's right.
00:34:24

00:34:29
You say that loud.
00:34:30
You sound like crazy person walking around and talking to yourself, but I don't who cares?
00:34:33
Yeah.
00:34:33
It it is literally changing neurons in your brain the more you do that.
00:34:37
And at the run, you have to run from temptation.
00:34:40
You know what I mean?
00:34:40
Like like, My wife made my wife made cookies, Erin.
00:34:45
She made cookies the other day.
00:34:47
You know, why did you first of all, oh my listen.
00:34:50
Well, I like cookies.
00:34:51
Oh, I
00:34:51
get you.
00:34:51
Because because because like, you
00:34:52
know, because
00:34:53
my daughter wants cookies.
00:34:55
And so she makes these cookies.
00:34:56
Right?
00:34:56
And I'm I just, you know, I'm hungry.
00:34:59
And I'm like, why are you making these cookies for?
00:35:01
I'm like, I don't like, you know, I don't like cookies in the house.
00:35:03
You know?
00:35:04
Yeah.
00:35:04
I'm like, I'm like, anti cookie guy.
00:35:07
But, you know, and they're soft.
00:35:09
They're they're sugar cookies, and they got the they got the cream cheese on them.
00:35:12
And I'm like, man, my daughter made them.
00:35:14
Now you wanna cook?
00:35:14
No.
00:35:15
I don't want one of those cookies.
00:35:15
I don't want one of those.
00:35:17
Then, you know, time goes by.
00:35:19
Time goes by.
00:35:19
And I keep seeing it, and I keep seeing it.
00:35:22
And that's my goal, you know, into the kitchen that you know, I'm hungry, man.
00:35:25
You get a drink or something.
00:35:26
I gotta pass by these cookies.
00:35:28
Got it.
00:35:28
And I'm like, man, I I I need to get it.
00:35:31
It needs to be out of sight.
00:35:32
So I said, Aaron, listen.
00:35:34
Like, you need to cover these cookies.
00:35:35
Yeah.
00:35:36
Give some tinfoil.
00:35:37
You get the tint.
00:35:38
It's it's it's crazy how the mind works, man.
00:35:40
Yeah.
00:35:41
It's tinfoil over the cookies.
00:35:43
And now when I walk in there, I know that there's cookies there.
00:35:45
No.
00:35:46
You're not smelling it.
00:35:46
But I but I know I'm not no.
00:35:48
I'm not I'm not seeing them.
00:35:49
So I'm not even I'm not even even though I I walk by my oh, yeah.
00:35:52
Those there's cookies there.
00:35:53
I know if I looked that up, that's where it is.
00:35:55
But it's just the the visual Yeah.
00:35:58
Of of seen those because, like, you know, and it's like that temptation of, like, man, those
00:36:02
cookies.
00:36:03
And I gave him what times, like, man, you know what?
00:36:06
And that's that's what I said.
00:36:07
I I no.
00:36:09
No.
00:36:09
I always smashed too, bro.
00:36:14
Same thing like last Friday.
00:36:15
I'm like,
00:36:15
dang it.
00:36:16
We had people over.
00:36:17
They couldn't cover up the cookies.
00:36:18
I probably shouldn't cover up the cookies.
00:36:19
And I'm like, man, I haven't had cookie in a minute.
00:36:22
I know.
00:36:22
At the same time.
00:36:23
Yeah.
00:36:23
I I did one worse.
00:36:25
Took 2 cookies and put some ice cream in the middle.
00:36:27
Oh, yeah.
00:36:29
You had a little extra.
00:36:30
Oh, man.
00:36:31
Oh, man.
00:36:32
I have had cookie, man.
00:36:33
But it's crazy.
00:36:34
If you cover them, It's so weird.
00:36:36
It's like, I know they've been there, and they're just I'm like, they're for my daughter.
00:36:40
They can she can have them, and I don't even I don't see him, and he's, therefore, he's not in
00:36:44
my mind.
00:36:44
So Yeah.
00:36:45
It's like, I guess it's a lesson of just like, you know, what we, like, what we put into our
00:36:51
bodies, whether it's through our mouth, through our eyes, or ears, like, it affects us because
00:36:55
reports, reports beings.
00:36:57
You know what I mean?
00:36:58
Right.
00:36:58
And even though we think about hard men.
00:37:00
No.
00:37:00
Nothing affects me.
00:37:01
No.
00:37:02
Like, music affects you.
00:37:05
What you see affects you, what we put into our mouth affects your body.
00:37:08
Like, we are porous.
00:37:09
Like, even the sun comes through our skin and we get vitamin d.
00:37:12
Like, we're open to all types of things.
00:37:14
So there's gotta be wise of that.
00:37:16
You know?
00:37:17
That's that's critical.
00:37:18
Andrew Huberman was actually talking about the kind of the narrative of music and how music
00:37:23
actually brings it, like, a just a cadence or flow on your body.
00:37:27
And so there and then there's an outward, like, narrative at that moment.
00:37:30
And I was thinking about them.
00:37:30
Like, man, like, when I'm working out, I like, listen like, wrap or something, you know, get
00:37:36
me amped up, like, my blood flowing, but I would I don't choose that.
00:37:39
Like, I don't choose that outside.
00:37:39
I'm usually listening to, like, Maverick City.
00:37:44
As, like, I take my girls.
00:37:45
Like, I've actually put prime that in my morning schedule because I know, like, the
00:37:49
narrative of how I want the day to go.
00:37:51
So I, like, incorporate that in my drive
00:37:53
That's why.
00:37:54
Because I want the, like, my girls and I to experience that.
00:37:57
And that just, like, it settles my spirit.
00:37:57
It gives me a very peaceful state with them.
00:37:57
Yeah.
00:37:57
But he was saying that, like, just music, whether you realize it or not, is imposing
00:38:07
something.
00:38:08
So if you're always listening to some element like, like, a hostile type music or environment
00:38:13
that eventually is ultimately gonna be, like, the operation of, like, kind of the day.
00:38:19
Yeah.
00:38:19
That or what you're gonna carry with you and a level of energy that which you'll probably
00:38:23
emit.
00:38:24
And, but they're also there there's other controlled environments.
00:38:29
Like, when I'm in CrossFit,
00:38:30
I I kinda want that.
00:38:31
Yeah.
00:38:32
I am.
00:38:32
I'm not listening to sitting there, and I'm I'm looking to get I'm looking to get it in.
00:38:36
You know what I mean?
00:38:38
So there's a there's an element to that, but I love the idea of how you give that give that
00:38:43
visual of our bodies are porous.
00:38:45
Yeah.
00:38:46
Whether it's with water, whether something's on us like a lotion Yeah.
00:38:49
Or even something that's just like outside of it's an energy source that's coming on us.
00:38:54
Mhmm.
00:38:54
Regardless.
00:38:55
There's research that shows because music is waves.
00:38:57
It's wavelength of sound.
00:38:58
Right?
00:38:58
The waves, like penetrate your body and actually change the way your cells respond as
00:39:03
well.
00:39:03
Right?
00:39:03
Like you said, that abrasive music, that's real
00:39:05
high frequency wavelength creates like rigidity
00:39:05
and and slows things down cause your blood to, like, slow down or thicken, right,
00:39:12
versus, like, the reason you put on some some, binaural beats or some kind of, like, like,
00:39:13
alpha brain wave type music and it, like, soothes you is because it creates, like, a
00:39:22
homeostatic kind of like balance within the cells.
00:39:25
It's crazy, man.
00:39:26
Like, that physiologically the music is affecting you more so than even just sight.
00:39:30
It's so interesting, man.
00:39:31
Like, especially, like, alpha waves and things like that.
00:39:33
I just sometimes I'll, I'll put that on.
00:39:36
I I always I meditate morning at night.
00:39:38
It's just something that I've habitually been doing for for years now.
00:39:43
Because that's, like, the 1 that's, like, the 2 things that I can control.
00:39:48
Right?
00:39:48
I can control the beginning of my day, and I can control the end of my day if I make it
00:39:53
through the day.
00:39:54
Right?
00:39:54
I can close my day.
00:39:55
I don't know what's
00:39:55
gonna happen at the end of the day.
00:39:56
I don't know if I'm hit by car, bit by dog.
00:39:58
You know, you know, you know, you don't know what's gonna happen.
00:39:59
So but the beginning of the day, I can, like, Carvest time out, harvest time out, give it to
00:40:03
god.
00:40:03
I'll meditate.
00:40:05
And at night, I do a different type of meditation where, either I'll listen to, like,
00:40:12
some really calm,
00:40:14
like, gospel music, or I'll sometimes I'll just
00:40:14
do, like, some off white beats or something like that.
00:40:14
Just com and I'll just be more because I feel like I've it changes my weather.
00:40:24
So I sell it myself, but I feel more receptive.
00:40:27
And I have my hands open, I feel like I can receive.
00:40:30
And I it's almost like, here I am, God, you know, like, I'm here to for whatever you have
00:40:37
to say to me.
00:40:38
And if you have anything to say to me, I'm here to receive you because so often I'm doing this
00:40:38
and moving and I'm busy.
00:40:38
We're hurried and you know, I need this and need this and it's like, you know, let me just
00:40:48
calm everything down.
00:40:50
And so
00:40:51
that's good.
00:40:51
That's awesome.
00:40:52
That's John Maxwell talked about, the head and the hard aligning.
00:40:55
Right?
00:40:56
And, I you know, when you can when you can control the controllables, like, I'm a big
00:40:59
morning and then I have a wind down, but that level
00:41:04
of, like, being open this, is really treating your body like
00:41:05
a temple.
00:41:05
That's been a big thing for me, like, year too
00:41:13
of, you know, I gotta I
00:41:14
I I, like, struggle with this, like, to
00:41:14
an element of, like,
00:41:14
projecting it on others, when I'm like, you know, I'm just like, take care take care of you
00:41:24
first, but there's a piece of, like, dude, why why are you treating your body like a rundown
00:41:29
motel?
00:41:30
Come on, man.
00:41:31
Yeah.
00:41:31
Like, there's not much time.
00:41:33
You know, not much time left.
00:41:34
Like, you gotta you gotta start treating and respecting that, and it starts with, like, how
00:41:39
you operate in beginning in the end of the day of, man, the, like, you wanna get the shell,
00:41:44
like, one time.
00:41:45
Like, it's a borrowed shell, whether you're Chris or not, Yeah.
00:41:47
It's a
00:41:47
bar of shell.
00:41:48
It's a gift.
00:41:49
It's a gift, man.
00:41:50
And, I don't wanna get upstairs and be in front of my maker and say, and then him be looking
00:41:55
around.
00:41:56
He's like, dang, man.
00:41:57
What'd you do?
00:41:58
The heck
00:41:58
did you do with that big doll there?
00:42:00
You know?
00:42:01
Bro, let
00:42:01
me just say this one thing.
00:42:01
I was playing pickleball the other
00:42:01
day, and this guy, his name is and he's he's he's amazing pickleball player.
00:42:07
He has one leg.
00:42:09
And I it was his on Monday.
00:42:11
And I did legs.
00:42:12
And I was like, you know, inside of it, oh, my legs are sore.
00:42:14
This entire.
00:42:15
Ow, my knee and I'm looking around trying to play, and he has one leg, man.
00:42:19
He's freaking killing it and crushing it.
00:42:21
And I'm like, you know what?
00:42:23
That's powerful.
00:42:24
No complaining, man.
00:42:25
I mean, this is why this is why today I'm doing LinkedIn.
00:42:28
Yeah.
00:42:29
Because I'm sure he's like, hey, you know what?
00:42:31
Give me your legs.
00:42:32
I'll go run a marathon.
00:42:33
Right.
00:42:33
Yeah.
00:42:33
I won't whine and cry.
00:42:34
Like, yeah, give me give me your legs.
00:42:36
I'll go do do this and that.
00:42:37
That's right.
00:42:37
And so
00:42:38
I won't skip like that.
00:42:39
No.
00:42:39
That's why it's like,
00:42:40
you don't
00:42:40
you don't know how much time to your point that we have.
00:42:44
I mean, I might be gone tomorrow.
00:42:45
I might be gone in in, you know, 5 years So let me do everything to the best of my ability, and
00:42:51
grow in those areas, whether it's physical, bio, social, you know, spiritual like, all the
00:42:57
things.
00:42:57
Right?
00:42:59
I wanna I wanna be make
00:43:01
sure I'm I'm taking leaps forward
00:43:01
moving forward.
00:43:01
Right?
00:43:01
And then like, taking care of your body is total is is a part of it.
00:43:08
Body is spiritual.
00:43:10
It's so connected, man.
00:43:12
It's so connected.
00:43:13
And we we think that it's not, but it's it's a lot.
00:43:16
Yeah.
00:43:16
And then it's that that piece of, you know, because I know you have kids, you have twins,
00:43:22
and I got 3 girls, and it's that piece of modeling.
00:43:26
You know?
00:43:26
Like Yeah.
00:43:27
I don't wanna man, it success in my eyes is being able to pass that down to the people I
00:43:32
care most about.
00:43:33
Yeah.
00:43:33
Totally.
00:43:33
And if I'm looking at them and I care most about them, and I'm not modeling that
00:43:37
attribute.
00:43:38
Right?
00:43:38
And then they get it, and they're like, they're not taking care of themselves.
00:43:41
I'm like, oh, man.
00:43:42
It's from you.
00:43:42
I didn't model.
00:43:43
Right?
00:43:43
Yeah.
00:43:43
You know, that that that wasn't that wasn't good.
00:43:46
Right?
00:43:46
And then I then I just catch up time, but while they're young and you can they see those
00:43:51
things.
00:43:51
I think it's huge.
00:43:52
So
00:43:53
Man, I wanna I wanna ask you a question, man, that maybe you can pass some wisdom along to
00:43:57
the people listening.
00:43:58
And, you know, we do my best.
00:43:59
I
00:44:00
can't promise anybody.
00:44:01
We talk about these pillars of, like, like, being full fueled, right, the name of the
00:44:05
podcast is how do we fuel ourselves?
00:44:07
Obviously, nutrition's 1.
00:44:07
Making sure we're
00:44:07
moving, mind, sleep, work and, like, having purpose.
00:44:14
Right?
00:44:14
Yeah.
00:44:14
To you, give some advice as to, like, how you live
00:44:14
your life fully fueled and how and what that means to you.
00:44:22
Just kinda, you know, whatever.
00:44:23
Whatever.
00:44:24
Oh, man.
00:44:25
Well, first, you know, Jesus wants us to live our life and live it to the full, right, for
00:44:30
me.
00:44:31
So, like I said, you know, the whole the whole wholeness is important.
00:44:37
Right?
00:44:39
So Biosciclesocial,
00:44:41
spiritual.
00:44:41
All those avenues and elements are what makes you whole and what and you need fuel
00:44:42
for all that.
00:44:49
So,
00:44:51
there's certain things that I do, like I said, I always recalibrate my vision him every day
00:44:58
because there's so many distractions, there's so much going on, man.
00:45:00
There's there's, you know, wars going on in Israel and and and it's like, we're not gonna
00:45:05
get into all that, but there's, like, so much going on that's and then even in our own
00:45:10
country.
00:45:10
Mhmm.
00:45:10
And it's
00:45:10
it you know, everything wants our heart Right?
00:45:16
Everything is is vibing for her heart.
00:45:17
Like, whether it's your social media, whether it's your iPhone, whether it's your, you know,
00:45:17
your favorite sports team, like,
00:45:25
you know, what is your job?
00:45:26
Like, they want your heart.
00:45:27
Mhmm.
00:45:27
Right?
00:45:27
And it's like, it's not where my heart belongs.
00:45:30
So for for me, I always I have to recalibrate my vision.
00:45:34
I'm like a compass.
00:45:35
I need to, you know, if I'm not looking to him and recalibrate my vision every single day,
00:45:39
then I I slowly just get pulled back into what's important, ambition, and the worldly
00:45:44
things.
00:45:44
And Yeah.
00:45:44
So I gotta always go like this.
00:45:46
That's how I start my day.
00:45:48
Right?
00:45:48
And I kinda get centered myself And I and then so with my body, I just sit still.
00:45:53
Like, guess what body?
00:45:54
You know what?
00:45:55
You're gonna sit still right now.
00:45:57
That sounds like the hardest thing.
00:45:58
I mean, if you ever and and I'll sit still for, like, you know, anywhere from, like, 7 to 10
00:46:03
minutes.
00:46:03
And and I'll just be like, and I'll I'll follow it.
00:46:05
I'll just sit still and I'll just breathe.
00:46:08
And and I'll sit sit still.
00:46:10
And, I mean, I do my best.
00:46:11
I mean, I'm sitting still.
00:46:12
And it's funny when you first do it, it's like all of a sudden, you know, so your your pitch
00:46:16
is it
00:46:17
to you.
00:46:17
Yeah.
00:46:17
You know what I mean?
00:46:19
This, you know, and this is like and so even if even if my nose is just like, oh, my my nose,
00:46:25
it's just I gotta scratch it.
00:46:26
Scratch it in my note.
00:46:27
He's I don't think about that.
00:46:28
And like I said before earlier, in this in this episode, that I would just breathe.
00:46:34
Right?
00:46:34
So it's the same thing I think about my breathing, and I don't I block out everything
00:46:40
else.
00:46:41
Mhmm.
00:46:41
Because your stomach's like, hey, over here, over here, we didn't even eat.
00:46:44
No.
00:46:44
Or we're we're doing a plane.
00:46:46
He was like, oh, man, I'm paying the pain pain.
00:46:47
He was like, nope.
00:46:48
I'm not listening to or I'm running the last, you know, the money's going back.
00:46:51
The last 100 is like, oh, man.
00:46:52
Just tightened up.
00:46:53
It'll be let's just stop.
00:46:54
Let's just stop.
00:46:55
Stop.
00:46:55
Stop.
00:46:55
Stop.
00:46:55
Stop.
00:46:55
This hurts.
00:46:56
And I was like, no.
00:46:57
Miss folks on my breathing.
00:46:58
So that's one thing I do, and that helps with my physical body.
00:47:01
Right.
00:47:01
Because it trades my body like, hey, guess what?
00:47:03
I'm in charge.
00:47:05
You're not in charge.
00:47:06
You're gonna do what I say.
00:47:07
When I say squat, squat, when I say jump, jump,
00:47:09
you know, and
00:47:10
I say go here, go here.
00:47:11
Yeah.
00:47:11
Like, this is so that's and then that's how I train and physical body.
00:47:15
Then, you know, through that, I think, you know, community is super important.
00:47:20
Yeah.
00:47:20
For that's a show the social aspect.
00:47:23
And all that help with, you know, and then psychologically, that helps too with what I do
00:47:28
in the morning.
00:47:28
So always just recalibrate my vision and then say okay.
00:47:33
And having the mindset download, this is kinda this is kinda stoic a little bit, but having
00:47:36
the mindset of of whatever comes, what can I learn from this day?
00:47:40
Whether it's good or bad, you just kinda like surf, man.
00:47:45

00:47:45
