WEBVTT

00:00:13.859 --> 00:00:16.562
What is going on, everybody?

00:00:16.582 --> 00:00:19.423
Welcome to the Clydesdale Media Podcast.

00:00:40.307 --> 00:00:41.107
My name is Scott Switzer.

00:00:41.128 --> 00:00:41.887
I'm the Clydesdale.

00:00:42.988 --> 00:00:45.930
I have with me someone new to the scene,

00:00:46.171 --> 00:00:47.271
kind of, but not really.

00:00:48.453 --> 00:00:49.414
Her name is Jenny Hall.

00:00:50.014 --> 00:00:52.015
You may know her as Dense Updates,

00:00:53.076 --> 00:00:54.298
but she has popped on the

00:00:54.317 --> 00:00:55.819
scene giving us updates

00:00:55.859 --> 00:00:57.119
about all the content going

00:00:57.240 --> 00:00:58.420
on in the CrossFit space,

00:00:58.820 --> 00:01:00.301
and we're here to get to know her.

00:01:00.802 --> 00:01:01.523
So what's going on, Jenny?

00:01:02.064 --> 00:01:02.804
Hey, good morning.

00:01:02.844 --> 00:01:03.304
How are you?

00:01:03.865 --> 00:01:04.305
I'm good.

00:01:04.365 --> 00:01:04.786
I'm good.

00:01:06.167 --> 00:01:06.686
So it's funny.

00:01:07.048 --> 00:01:08.048
I've been following you

00:01:08.108 --> 00:01:09.989
since before your Dense Updates.

00:01:10.748 --> 00:01:11.087
Yes.

00:01:11.207 --> 00:01:13.209
Dense after forty.

00:01:13.349 --> 00:01:13.489
Yeah.

00:01:13.588 --> 00:01:15.308
And you were Dense Mom for a minute too,

00:01:15.368 --> 00:01:15.588
right?

00:01:15.629 --> 00:01:16.969
Like Dense Mom something.

00:01:17.590 --> 00:01:18.090
Maybe.

00:01:18.269 --> 00:01:18.930
I think I changed,

00:01:19.170 --> 00:01:20.730
I used to change the name

00:01:20.751 --> 00:01:21.831
in the profile a couple of

00:01:21.870 --> 00:01:24.772
times just to try to be funny.

00:01:24.891 --> 00:01:25.811
One time I think I changed

00:01:25.831 --> 00:01:26.951
my name to Potster.

00:01:27.852 --> 00:01:28.933
Just like my profile name

00:01:28.953 --> 00:01:30.112
because I had posted something and

00:01:30.847 --> 00:01:32.689
a few athletes weren't happy with me.

00:01:32.810 --> 00:01:35.733
So I, and then I quickly changed it back.

00:01:35.753 --> 00:01:36.173
That's mom.

00:01:36.192 --> 00:01:36.272
Yeah.

00:01:37.254 --> 00:01:38.155
Yeah.

00:01:38.194 --> 00:01:39.397
Um, so, uh,

00:01:39.496 --> 00:01:41.519
Damien Fink says her stuff has been going,

00:01:41.558 --> 00:01:42.400
gaining popularity.

00:01:42.659 --> 00:01:42.959
Well,

00:01:43.140 --> 00:01:44.301
why do you think we have her on here?

00:01:46.102 --> 00:01:47.243
Well, I appreciate you having me on.

00:01:48.185 --> 00:01:48.445
Yeah.

00:01:48.605 --> 00:01:50.246
And this is your first ever podcast.

00:01:50.647 --> 00:01:51.668
First ever podcast.

00:01:53.109 --> 00:01:54.631
We take pride in having

00:01:54.811 --> 00:01:56.010
people on for the first time.

00:01:56.971 --> 00:01:58.031
Colton Mertens did his first

00:01:58.072 --> 00:01:58.933
podcast with us.

00:01:58.953 --> 00:01:59.393
I love Colton.

00:01:59.513 --> 00:02:02.394
He's such a good dude.

00:02:02.453 --> 00:02:03.093
Emma Carey.

00:02:03.834 --> 00:02:05.075
So that's something we take

00:02:05.114 --> 00:02:06.876
pride in is people who dive

00:02:06.956 --> 00:02:08.556
into not necessarily all

00:02:08.576 --> 00:02:09.937
the big names in the space,

00:02:09.977 --> 00:02:11.978
but kind of that next tier

00:02:12.538 --> 00:02:13.618
and hope that they get to

00:02:13.639 --> 00:02:14.419
that upper tier.

00:02:15.620 --> 00:02:17.580
So we're super excited to

00:02:17.600 --> 00:02:18.260
have you on here.

00:02:19.061 --> 00:02:20.241
I want to start with...

00:02:21.078 --> 00:02:21.959
learning a little bit more

00:02:21.979 --> 00:02:25.862
about you and kind of your origin story.

00:02:25.923 --> 00:02:26.122
Yeah.

00:02:26.182 --> 00:02:29.306
So I started doing CrossFit

00:02:30.046 --> 00:02:31.307
in two thousand and ten.

00:02:32.027 --> 00:02:34.210
So I've been around for

00:02:34.250 --> 00:02:36.992
quite a while and kind of

00:02:37.293 --> 00:02:39.014
the typical story, you know,

00:02:39.094 --> 00:02:40.075
visit a CrossFit gym.

00:02:40.096 --> 00:02:41.176
Some friends from work had

00:02:41.197 --> 00:02:44.060
brought me to the gym that they go to and

00:02:44.962 --> 00:02:46.264
Did a workout and was like, oh my God,

00:02:46.284 --> 00:02:47.165
that was so hard.

00:02:47.645 --> 00:02:48.948
But then was like finding

00:02:48.967 --> 00:02:50.330
myself back there the next

00:02:50.370 --> 00:02:51.972
day and then the next day.

00:02:52.412 --> 00:02:53.453
And then my week trial was

00:02:53.554 --> 00:02:55.436
up and I was like, yeah, sign me up.

00:02:56.116 --> 00:02:58.058
And then just never looked back.

00:02:59.320 --> 00:03:01.163
Here we are, fourteen years later.

00:03:01.522 --> 00:03:02.564
That was all the way back in

00:03:02.604 --> 00:03:03.385
two thousand ten.

00:03:03.942 --> 00:03:05.943
So the end of two thousand ten,

00:03:07.024 --> 00:03:08.324
just before my thirtieth birthday,

00:03:08.764 --> 00:03:09.725
I was just kind of like

00:03:10.746 --> 00:03:11.926
looking for something different.

00:03:12.668 --> 00:03:14.088
I'd already done, you know,

00:03:14.109 --> 00:03:14.729
like running on the

00:03:14.769 --> 00:03:18.191
treadmill and narrow stance

00:03:18.330 --> 00:03:19.451
squats in the rack at

00:03:19.491 --> 00:03:20.793
Lifetime Fitness kind of thing.

00:03:21.032 --> 00:03:22.493
And I was just looking for

00:03:22.533 --> 00:03:23.735
something different.

00:03:23.854 --> 00:03:26.417
And the guys that I worked

00:03:26.437 --> 00:03:27.896
with came back from lunch

00:03:27.957 --> 00:03:28.698
one day and they were all

00:03:28.818 --> 00:03:29.699
sweaty and gross.

00:03:29.718 --> 00:03:31.199
And I'm like, where did you guys go?

00:03:31.219 --> 00:03:31.759
And they're like,

00:03:32.229 --> 00:03:32.310
Oh,

00:03:32.330 --> 00:03:33.770
we went in this warehouse and did this

00:03:33.830 --> 00:03:34.411
workout.

00:03:34.450 --> 00:03:36.572
It was like P-Ninety X style.

00:03:37.252 --> 00:03:38.173
You probably wouldn't like it.

00:03:38.193 --> 00:03:39.853
I'm like, I'll go.

00:03:40.133 --> 00:03:42.555
And then, yeah, it was brutal.

00:03:42.634 --> 00:03:43.634
I still remember that first

00:03:43.675 --> 00:03:44.756
day we had to do wall balls,

00:03:44.776 --> 00:03:47.537
like on the outside of this warehouse.

00:03:47.556 --> 00:03:48.637
They didn't have like a wall

00:03:48.657 --> 00:03:50.437
ball target or anything indoors.

00:03:50.497 --> 00:03:51.899
It was outside in the sun.

00:03:52.418 --> 00:03:53.657
just shooting it up on the

00:03:53.698 --> 00:03:54.818
side of the warehouse wall.

00:03:54.919 --> 00:03:56.718
Like no line, just throw it anywhere.

00:03:57.158 --> 00:03:59.558
It was, it was awful.

00:04:00.580 --> 00:04:01.340
But yeah, I loved it.

00:04:01.479 --> 00:04:02.159
I'm going to trade it.

00:04:02.180 --> 00:04:03.860
My first workout ever was Murph.

00:04:04.561 --> 00:04:05.020
Oh geez.

00:04:05.040 --> 00:04:05.181
Yeah.

00:04:07.341 --> 00:04:07.480
Yeah.

00:04:07.540 --> 00:04:08.661
Not, not pretty for a guy.

00:04:09.001 --> 00:04:10.201
Not the first one.

00:04:10.842 --> 00:04:11.141
Yeah.

00:04:12.801 --> 00:04:13.822
I just remember the wall balls.

00:04:13.882 --> 00:04:14.782
I honestly don't remember

00:04:14.883 --> 00:04:16.142
anything else that was in it.

00:04:16.163 --> 00:04:17.142
Cause I just remember like

00:04:17.642 --> 00:04:18.824
hitting myself in the face

00:04:18.863 --> 00:04:20.944
with the ball and like not being able to,

00:04:21.649 --> 00:04:22.810
get it far up there and

00:04:22.850 --> 00:04:24.072
looking around like, oh my God,

00:04:24.091 --> 00:04:27.473
these people must think I'm so foolish.

00:04:29.035 --> 00:04:29.475
But yeah,

00:04:29.514 --> 00:04:30.675
then everyone cheers you on and

00:04:30.696 --> 00:04:31.757
you're like, oh, okay.

00:04:32.858 --> 00:04:33.057
Yeah.

00:04:33.836 --> 00:04:35.759
So were you always into fitness?

00:04:35.778 --> 00:04:37.899
Did you do athletics as a kid?

00:04:38.300 --> 00:04:40.521
No, I mean, I wasn't an athlete per se.

00:04:40.581 --> 00:04:42.764
I did dance for a lot of years.

00:04:43.764 --> 00:04:45.425
When I was nine, my mom, I lived in,

00:04:45.505 --> 00:04:46.045
I grew up in Northern

00:04:46.086 --> 00:04:48.307
California and my mom was

00:04:48.427 --> 00:04:50.569
really into like the country dancing,

00:04:50.730 --> 00:04:52.031
which doesn't seem like it

00:04:52.050 --> 00:04:53.372
would be a thing in California.

00:04:54.552 --> 00:04:56.434
But she would drag me around

00:04:56.473 --> 00:04:58.836
to all these like family dance things.

00:04:58.915 --> 00:05:00.177
And I just started,

00:05:00.297 --> 00:05:01.658
I learned how to dance and then ended up

00:05:02.605 --> 00:05:03.345
just getting really

00:05:03.386 --> 00:05:04.505
competitive with that and

00:05:04.526 --> 00:05:06.747
did that until pretty much

00:05:06.767 --> 00:05:07.987
until I graduated high school.

00:05:08.968 --> 00:05:09.769
My junior year,

00:05:09.790 --> 00:05:11.630
we won a world championship in Nashville.

00:05:12.411 --> 00:05:13.891
So that was kind of fun, but it was,

00:05:15.273 --> 00:05:16.394
I say dancing is just as

00:05:16.473 --> 00:05:19.536
hard as any other kind of sport.

00:05:19.755 --> 00:05:21.877
There's a lot of eight hour practices,

00:05:22.338 --> 00:05:23.598
just madness,

00:05:23.738 --> 00:05:26.581
practicing every night after school for,

00:05:26.800 --> 00:05:28.762
you know, almost ten years straight.

00:05:30.276 --> 00:05:30.536
Yeah,

00:05:30.555 --> 00:05:32.997
I know one of my original co-hosts

00:05:33.038 --> 00:05:34.259
and still with us is Kat,

00:05:34.338 --> 00:05:36.880
and she studied ballet all

00:05:36.920 --> 00:05:38.581
the way up through high school,

00:05:38.661 --> 00:05:40.622
and the hours she did were

00:05:40.663 --> 00:05:42.024
just as grueling as anything I did.

00:05:42.043 --> 00:05:42.225
Yeah.

00:05:42.245 --> 00:05:42.324
Yeah.

00:05:42.345 --> 00:05:42.464
Yeah,

00:05:46.026 --> 00:05:47.689
I got teased a lot for it in high school,

00:05:48.988 --> 00:05:50.610
but it was good times

00:05:50.630 --> 00:05:52.512
because we did two-step, country,

00:05:52.552 --> 00:05:53.252
West Coast swing.

00:05:53.273 --> 00:05:54.733
Country was not cool back then.

00:05:55.254 --> 00:05:56.235
It seemed to be a little bit

00:05:56.254 --> 00:05:57.295
more popular towards the

00:05:57.394 --> 00:05:58.196
end of high school.

00:05:58.877 --> 00:05:59.197
Yeah.

00:06:01.327 --> 00:06:03.288
But it definitely gave me

00:06:03.848 --> 00:06:05.069
like a lot of body awareness.

00:06:05.088 --> 00:06:06.088
So I think that kind of

00:06:06.129 --> 00:06:07.149
transferred over when it

00:06:07.170 --> 00:06:07.910
came to CrossFit.

00:06:07.970 --> 00:06:10.250
I picked up pull-ups really quickly,

00:06:10.949 --> 00:06:13.031
double-unders, things like that,

00:06:13.071 --> 00:06:13.930
butterfly pull-ups,

00:06:13.951 --> 00:06:14.851
like that kind of stuff

00:06:14.872 --> 00:06:17.291
like immediately just made sense to me.

00:06:17.331 --> 00:06:18.812
Whereas some of the other

00:06:18.853 --> 00:06:19.872
like technical stuff like

00:06:19.913 --> 00:06:21.853
in the snatch and ring

00:06:21.892 --> 00:06:22.834
muscle-ups and things like

00:06:22.874 --> 00:06:24.374
that were a little bit harder.

00:06:25.995 --> 00:06:27.536
So I went back through your

00:06:27.615 --> 00:06:30.896
Instagram and like is back,

00:06:31.396 --> 00:06:34.437
not as far as I could.

00:06:34.997 --> 00:06:39.519
And I read a thing where you

00:06:39.559 --> 00:06:41.038
were diagnosed at one point

00:06:41.298 --> 00:06:43.199
with something and the

00:06:43.240 --> 00:06:44.879
doctor wanted you to be

00:06:45.000 --> 00:06:47.021
less active and to start

00:06:47.060 --> 00:06:49.281
medication and you chose to

00:06:49.341 --> 00:06:51.141
take it on with CrossFit.

00:06:51.161 --> 00:06:52.641
Can you walk us through what

00:06:52.682 --> 00:06:53.201
happened then?

00:06:54.197 --> 00:06:54.398
Yeah.

00:06:54.458 --> 00:06:59.100
So I was probably, let's see,

00:06:59.120 --> 00:07:00.341
it was before I moved here.

00:07:00.420 --> 00:07:02.762
So twenty four, twenty five,

00:07:02.802 --> 00:07:03.502
somewhere around there,

00:07:03.521 --> 00:07:04.622
I just started feeling like

00:07:04.663 --> 00:07:08.125
really run down and would get like random,

00:07:08.185 --> 00:07:11.146
crampy, aching feelings all over my body.

00:07:11.206 --> 00:07:13.146
And then, you know, I was like, OK,

00:07:13.466 --> 00:07:15.487
I should probably get out and run more,

00:07:15.567 --> 00:07:16.408
do stuff like that.

00:07:16.487 --> 00:07:17.788
And certain things would

00:07:17.809 --> 00:07:18.949
kind of counterbalance it.

00:07:18.970 --> 00:07:19.850
And I would find myself

00:07:19.870 --> 00:07:20.971
feeling better and then not

00:07:20.990 --> 00:07:21.511
feeling better.

00:07:21.550 --> 00:07:21.850
But then

00:07:22.329 --> 00:07:23.870
closer to my thirties,

00:07:23.910 --> 00:07:25.471
but right before we moved out here, it,

00:07:25.790 --> 00:07:27.451
it just seemed to take a

00:07:27.492 --> 00:07:28.492
massive toll on me.

00:07:29.072 --> 00:07:30.834
And I contribute a lot of

00:07:30.853 --> 00:07:32.295
that back then to maybe stress,

00:07:32.314 --> 00:07:32.875
life stress.

00:07:32.935 --> 00:07:34.716
I was a single mom and

00:07:34.776 --> 00:07:36.538
living on my own and things like that.

00:07:36.598 --> 00:07:40.440
But yeah, so went to a couple of doctors.

00:07:40.480 --> 00:07:42.122
We did all the kinds of blood tests,

00:07:42.242 --> 00:07:43.302
all the things you could think of.

00:07:43.322 --> 00:07:44.483
And they basically were just like,

00:07:44.963 --> 00:07:45.803
we think you have lupus.

00:07:45.824 --> 00:07:48.105
And I was like, what's that?

00:07:48.144 --> 00:07:48.906
And then you start looking

00:07:48.966 --> 00:07:49.646
into it and they're like,

00:07:50.187 --> 00:07:51.468
can't be out in the sunlight.

00:07:51.567 --> 00:07:51.848
And yeah,

00:07:52.637 --> 00:07:55.038
You have to be on therapy medications,

00:07:55.437 --> 00:07:58.060
you know, to combat all those symptoms.

00:07:58.079 --> 00:07:59.821
And I'm just like, that doesn't like,

00:07:59.901 --> 00:08:00.701
I knew a girl in high

00:08:00.740 --> 00:08:03.661
school that had lupus and it didn't,

00:08:03.701 --> 00:08:04.942
it didn't seem right to me.

00:08:05.103 --> 00:08:06.944
And so I wanted to get a second opinion.

00:08:07.024 --> 00:08:07.904
So I went and saw a couple

00:08:07.944 --> 00:08:09.365
other doctors and they all

00:08:09.404 --> 00:08:11.545
kind of came back to the same conclusion.

00:08:11.565 --> 00:08:12.547
I was like, well, shit.

00:08:13.266 --> 00:08:15.048
So then I never started my

00:08:15.088 --> 00:08:17.129
treatment in Arizona where I lived.

00:08:17.168 --> 00:08:19.050
I waited, I came back out here and,

00:08:19.351 --> 00:08:20.473
went and saw another doctor.

00:08:21.572 --> 00:08:22.973
I won't say the name of the clinic,

00:08:22.994 --> 00:08:24.033
but it's a well-known like

00:08:24.074 --> 00:08:25.274
rheumatoid arthritis type

00:08:25.295 --> 00:08:27.675
clinic and they treat lupus as well.

00:08:28.516 --> 00:08:29.476
And yeah,

00:08:29.516 --> 00:08:30.557
so they just wanted to start me

00:08:30.598 --> 00:08:31.858
on therapies and medications.

00:08:31.877 --> 00:08:34.239
And I was just like that, let me,

00:08:34.418 --> 00:08:35.600
let me do some research.

00:08:35.620 --> 00:08:36.480
So I just went down the

00:08:36.519 --> 00:08:37.341
rabbit hole of different

00:08:37.360 --> 00:08:38.902
things and it was like, okay, maybe,

00:08:39.562 --> 00:08:40.783
maybe this stress and my

00:08:40.822 --> 00:08:42.423
lifestyle has a little bit to do with it.

00:08:42.462 --> 00:08:44.344
Maybe I should stop smoking.

00:08:44.403 --> 00:08:45.544
Maybe I shouldn't

00:08:46.940 --> 00:08:48.321
go out as often with my

00:08:48.360 --> 00:08:50.023
friends and have drinks or

00:08:50.363 --> 00:08:52.043
eat Taco Bell and, you know,

00:08:52.083 --> 00:08:52.725
things like that.

00:08:52.784 --> 00:08:54.765
So I slowly kind of started

00:08:55.106 --> 00:08:56.488
doing my own thing there.

00:08:56.587 --> 00:08:57.268
And then when I found

00:08:57.327 --> 00:09:00.091
CrossFit shortly after, honestly,

00:09:01.991 --> 00:09:05.034
I started noticing like big changes.

00:09:05.095 --> 00:09:06.956
And then it was like six months later,

00:09:07.035 --> 00:09:08.998
I felt like I had zero symptoms.

00:09:10.116 --> 00:09:11.496
And haven't had any sense.

00:09:11.517 --> 00:09:13.717
So I was like, all right, doctors.

00:09:14.378 --> 00:09:15.519
How much do you attribute to

00:09:15.558 --> 00:09:17.438
the physical exertion of

00:09:17.479 --> 00:09:19.159
CrossFit and how much to

00:09:19.500 --> 00:09:20.580
like changing your diet?

00:09:22.080 --> 00:09:23.100
I honestly think it was a

00:09:23.160 --> 00:09:24.461
combination of everything.

00:09:25.520 --> 00:09:26.542
And it's hard to really say

00:09:26.562 --> 00:09:27.542
because it wasn't like I just.

00:09:27.986 --> 00:09:30.389
cut one thing at once I kind

00:09:30.408 --> 00:09:31.529
of was starting all of it

00:09:31.570 --> 00:09:32.990
at the same time so it's

00:09:33.030 --> 00:09:34.251
really hard to say like oh

00:09:34.312 --> 00:09:35.153
it's because I changed my

00:09:35.192 --> 00:09:35.932
diet because don't get me

00:09:35.974 --> 00:09:37.654
wrong like I still would go

00:09:37.674 --> 00:09:38.315
out with my friends and

00:09:38.355 --> 00:09:39.275
have drinks every once in a

00:09:39.316 --> 00:09:40.336
while if I could get a

00:09:40.356 --> 00:09:42.479
babysitter um and I was

00:09:42.499 --> 00:09:43.639
still wasn't eating that

00:09:43.700 --> 00:09:45.341
great it's you know a few

00:09:45.380 --> 00:09:46.442
years into CrossFit or when

00:09:46.481 --> 00:09:47.623
people really start like

00:09:48.003 --> 00:09:49.144
trying the different zone

00:09:49.163 --> 00:09:50.926
diets and paleo and things

00:09:50.946 --> 00:09:52.886
like that so at first it

00:09:52.927 --> 00:09:53.788
was more I was just

00:09:54.576 --> 00:09:55.898
trying to do what made me

00:09:55.977 --> 00:09:58.158
feel better and I would cut little things,

00:09:58.219 --> 00:10:00.298
but, um,

00:10:00.399 --> 00:10:02.500
I will say like three weeks after

00:10:02.539 --> 00:10:03.360
doing CrossFit,

00:10:03.500 --> 00:10:05.442
I quit smoking cold Turkey.

00:10:05.522 --> 00:10:06.802
Mike was like, I can't do this anymore.

00:10:06.822 --> 00:10:08.123
I can't breathe during these workouts.

00:10:09.383 --> 00:10:10.004
And that was great.

00:10:10.823 --> 00:10:10.984
Yeah.

00:10:11.898 --> 00:10:12.979
that's got to be a big one

00:10:12.999 --> 00:10:15.441
yeah I had smoked for many

00:10:15.480 --> 00:10:17.381
years and now I'm just like

00:10:17.402 --> 00:10:20.384
it's so gross yeah I grew

00:10:20.423 --> 00:10:21.565
up in a house with two

00:10:21.605 --> 00:10:23.625
parents who smoked and um

00:10:23.986 --> 00:10:25.927
when I moved out like just

00:10:25.947 --> 00:10:28.370
being around it now I can't

00:10:28.409 --> 00:10:31.751
even handle it it's yeah um uh but

00:10:33.129 --> 00:10:35.090
So you're a single mom at the time.

00:10:35.169 --> 00:10:37.892
How hard is it to work a full-time job,

00:10:38.451 --> 00:10:40.092
be a single mom and find

00:10:40.133 --> 00:10:41.994
time for you to get fitness in?

00:10:43.235 --> 00:10:47.557
Honestly, I mean, it wasn't,

00:10:48.557 --> 00:10:49.379
it wasn't as hard as I

00:10:49.418 --> 00:10:51.639
think people would think it would be like,

00:10:51.960 --> 00:10:52.139
yeah,

00:10:52.200 --> 00:10:53.941
being a single mom is hard and you

00:10:53.961 --> 00:10:55.221
got to go to work every day and

00:10:56.287 --> 00:10:57.308
drive through traffic to get

00:10:57.328 --> 00:10:58.890
your kids and do all the things.

00:10:58.971 --> 00:11:01.854
But she would just come

00:11:01.874 --> 00:11:02.674
along with me and the

00:11:02.695 --> 00:11:03.615
community was really

00:11:03.655 --> 00:11:04.918
inviting and welcoming and

00:11:04.957 --> 00:11:06.120
other people there had kids.

00:11:06.179 --> 00:11:07.660
And so our kids would kind

00:11:07.682 --> 00:11:09.023
of just play around outside

00:11:09.043 --> 00:11:09.583
and it was fun.

00:11:10.205 --> 00:11:11.525
really more like fun for them.

00:11:11.566 --> 00:11:12.365
And then sometimes they

00:11:12.385 --> 00:11:13.427
could come in and like do

00:11:13.447 --> 00:11:15.067
little workouts by the side of us.

00:11:15.106 --> 00:11:16.868
I think maybe had it been a

00:11:16.947 --> 00:11:18.649
different environment of a gym,

00:11:18.668 --> 00:11:19.629
because I know some gyms

00:11:19.710 --> 00:11:20.850
are a little more of a

00:11:20.889 --> 00:11:23.851
younger crowd or more competitive crowd.

00:11:23.971 --> 00:11:25.272
And at that particular gym I

00:11:25.292 --> 00:11:27.493
was at at the time, everybody, you know,

00:11:27.533 --> 00:11:28.874
there were lots of kids running around.

00:11:28.913 --> 00:11:30.394
So that made it really easy.

00:11:32.196 --> 00:11:33.897
And honestly, she was such a great kid.

00:11:33.937 --> 00:11:35.397
She didn't really put up a fuss.

00:11:35.517 --> 00:11:37.118
Like she'd just come and

00:11:37.138 --> 00:11:38.759
hang out and she'd cheer us on.

00:11:38.818 --> 00:11:38.918
And

00:11:40.148 --> 00:11:41.528
then we go home, eat dinner and go to bed.

00:11:42.969 --> 00:11:43.068
Uh,

00:11:43.109 --> 00:11:45.330
I've seen pictures of you and your

00:11:45.370 --> 00:11:47.350
daughter doing handstand

00:11:47.390 --> 00:11:49.410
hold like competition.

00:11:49.591 --> 00:11:49.811
Yeah.

00:11:50.150 --> 00:11:51.192
Is that your oldest daughter?

00:11:51.731 --> 00:11:54.572
So that is actually, um, my middle.

00:11:54.732 --> 00:11:56.453
So my oldest just left for college.

00:11:57.333 --> 00:11:58.293
She, um,

00:11:59.955 --> 00:12:03.115
goes to Baylor full ride scholarship.

00:12:03.155 --> 00:12:04.115
So very lucky there.

00:12:04.155 --> 00:12:05.116
She's a real smart girl.

00:12:06.256 --> 00:12:08.577
Um, and she used to do CrossFit with me.

00:12:08.937 --> 00:12:08.977
Um,

00:12:09.571 --> 00:12:11.011
She'd been around it since she was five.

00:12:11.892 --> 00:12:13.072
And then at some point in high school,

00:12:13.092 --> 00:12:14.173
her academic schedule and

00:12:14.232 --> 00:12:15.594
all of her extracurriculars

00:12:15.614 --> 00:12:16.413
kind of got in the way.

00:12:16.494 --> 00:12:18.095
So it took a backseat,

00:12:18.154 --> 00:12:19.956
but she's hoping to start back up.

00:12:20.535 --> 00:12:21.496
And then that's my middle

00:12:21.537 --> 00:12:23.557
child in the most recent videos.

00:12:24.337 --> 00:12:25.499
She's been doing gymnastics

00:12:25.538 --> 00:12:26.558
now for about a year.

00:12:27.200 --> 00:12:29.240
And so I'm always like, come on, Madison,

00:12:29.259 --> 00:12:29.561
let's go.

00:12:29.581 --> 00:12:30.120
Let's see.

00:12:30.160 --> 00:12:30.801
Can you beat mom?

00:12:30.941 --> 00:12:31.240
Let's go.

00:12:31.280 --> 00:12:33.543
And she's getting there.

00:12:34.403 --> 00:12:35.703
She's going to beat me soon.

00:12:38.274 --> 00:12:39.595
So it's so cool.

00:12:39.615 --> 00:12:41.677
Cause like I have a similar story.

00:12:41.876 --> 00:12:42.837
If I tried to go to like

00:12:42.878 --> 00:12:44.099
lifetime with my daughter,

00:12:44.480 --> 00:12:45.460
it would have never worked.

00:12:45.480 --> 00:12:45.620
No.

00:12:45.681 --> 00:12:46.360
Yeah.

00:12:46.922 --> 00:12:48.202
When you go to CrossFit and,

00:12:48.743 --> 00:12:50.304
and you're there with five

00:12:50.365 --> 00:12:51.466
other sets of parents who

00:12:51.505 --> 00:12:52.647
all brought their kids and

00:12:52.667 --> 00:12:54.488
then those kids kind of get

00:12:54.528 --> 00:12:56.090
to know each other and grow up together.

00:12:56.470 --> 00:12:56.870
Yeah.

00:12:56.910 --> 00:12:58.131
It actually became a beautiful thing.

00:12:58.152 --> 00:12:59.192
And my daughter just

00:12:59.232 --> 00:13:00.374
graduated from college.

00:13:00.894 --> 00:13:04.277
So like I'm even on another step up, um,

00:13:04.537 --> 00:13:05.298
which is crazy.

00:13:05.845 --> 00:13:07.086
Yeah, it is crazy.

00:13:07.225 --> 00:13:08.426
I love seeing all the kids.

00:13:08.485 --> 00:13:10.006
Like our gym is,

00:13:10.966 --> 00:13:13.008
has grown a lot over the years,

00:13:13.067 --> 00:13:15.489
but we've always had like a tight,

00:13:16.009 --> 00:13:17.490
like mom group, we call it.

00:13:19.071 --> 00:13:20.850
So at one point I wasn't

00:13:21.192 --> 00:13:22.331
working full time and I was

00:13:22.471 --> 00:13:24.153
at home taking care of the two littles.

00:13:24.212 --> 00:13:24.513
And so

00:13:25.086 --> 00:13:26.346
Our mom class kind of just

00:13:26.466 --> 00:13:28.067
all of a sudden just blew up.

00:13:28.148 --> 00:13:30.308
It was ten or twelve of us moms,

00:13:30.350 --> 00:13:31.629
and all of us brought the kids,

00:13:31.669 --> 00:13:32.591
and they'd all play.

00:13:32.691 --> 00:13:34.932
And now all the kids do CrossFit Kids,

00:13:34.993 --> 00:13:36.332
and they compete with each other.

00:13:36.474 --> 00:13:37.714
And we're getting to kind of

00:13:37.734 --> 00:13:39.916
see the evolution of their

00:13:39.956 --> 00:13:41.996
fitness along with ours.

00:13:42.297 --> 00:13:43.618
It's really cool.

00:13:43.918 --> 00:13:45.418
So you have one going off to college,

00:13:45.438 --> 00:13:46.360
and you have two others.

00:13:46.399 --> 00:13:48.120
How old are they?

00:13:48.201 --> 00:13:49.221
Two more girls.

00:13:49.682 --> 00:13:50.623
So three girls total.

00:13:51.703 --> 00:13:52.283
Eight and nine.

00:13:52.303 --> 00:13:53.205
Oh, nice.

00:13:53.225 --> 00:13:53.625
Nice.

00:13:54.008 --> 00:13:54.227
Yeah.

00:13:54.248 --> 00:13:58.068
So back to back, um, I got remarried, um,

00:13:58.629 --> 00:13:59.370
had Matson in, um,

00:13:59.389 --> 00:14:06.152
did that part that did that open pregnant,

00:14:06.192 --> 00:14:07.692
had her at the end of may

00:14:08.432 --> 00:14:09.633
or at the beginning of may, I'm sorry.

00:14:09.773 --> 00:14:11.293
And then found out when she

00:14:11.332 --> 00:14:12.413
was five months old that I

00:14:12.432 --> 00:14:13.974
was pregnant with my youngest.

00:14:15.114 --> 00:14:17.134
Um, she was kind of a surprise.

00:14:17.674 --> 00:14:17.914
Um,

00:14:17.955 --> 00:14:20.336
so had to do the next year's open also

00:14:20.395 --> 00:14:20.775
pregnant.

00:14:21.655 --> 00:14:22.297
which was fun.

00:14:24.018 --> 00:14:25.619
Yeah.

00:14:25.759 --> 00:14:26.639
And did I see in your

00:14:26.679 --> 00:14:28.120
Instagram that with one of the kids,

00:14:28.221 --> 00:14:29.403
your water actually broke

00:14:29.442 --> 00:14:30.283
while working out?

00:14:30.844 --> 00:14:31.264
Yes.

00:14:31.384 --> 00:14:33.225
With the little, with the youngest.

00:14:33.706 --> 00:14:34.226
Yeah.

00:14:34.447 --> 00:14:34.647
I,

00:14:34.687 --> 00:14:36.928
so I actually had to be put on bedrest

00:14:36.969 --> 00:14:38.190
for a couple of weeks with her.

00:14:39.351 --> 00:14:40.113
My blood pressure was

00:14:40.133 --> 00:14:41.994
getting really high and

00:14:42.374 --> 00:14:43.495
they attributed it to just

00:14:43.514 --> 00:14:45.176
having babies so close back to back.

00:14:45.216 --> 00:14:45.636
Like they say,

00:14:45.657 --> 00:14:47.197
your uterus doesn't have time to,

00:14:47.518 --> 00:14:47.697
you know,

00:14:47.717 --> 00:14:48.839
I didn't get to do all the birth

00:14:48.879 --> 00:14:49.840
fit things and the things

00:14:49.860 --> 00:14:50.821
that are out there now that

00:14:50.860 --> 00:14:51.480
kind of help you with

00:14:51.500 --> 00:14:52.542
pelvic floor issues and

00:14:53.125 --> 00:14:54.005
all that sort of stuff.

00:14:54.025 --> 00:14:54.966
And so they say just having

00:14:54.986 --> 00:14:56.246
them so close back to back.

00:14:56.908 --> 00:14:57.327
But anyways,

00:14:57.368 --> 00:14:58.749
I was on bed rest for a couple

00:14:58.769 --> 00:14:59.428
of weeks and then they

00:14:59.469 --> 00:15:00.369
released me and they're like, oh,

00:15:00.389 --> 00:15:00.889
you're fine.

00:15:01.330 --> 00:15:02.889
And I want to say about a

00:15:02.929 --> 00:15:03.811
week and a half later.

00:15:03.850 --> 00:15:04.051
Yeah.

00:15:04.091 --> 00:15:05.692
We're just doing a wall ball

00:15:05.731 --> 00:15:07.893
workout and about twelve wall balls in.

00:15:08.952 --> 00:15:10.614
Everyone's like, oh, my God.

00:15:13.014 --> 00:15:14.556
And they just ran me out to the car,

00:15:14.635 --> 00:15:15.635
grabbed my kid out of the

00:15:15.655 --> 00:15:18.236
child care and drove myself

00:15:18.256 --> 00:15:18.957
to the hospital.

00:15:18.998 --> 00:15:21.739
And four hours later, there's Lucy.

00:15:21.839 --> 00:15:22.058
Wow.

00:15:22.739 --> 00:15:23.339
Yeah.

00:15:23.359 --> 00:15:24.179
What a testament though,

00:15:24.200 --> 00:15:25.340
that you're able to work

00:15:25.480 --> 00:15:28.581
out all the way up, uh, until that point.

00:15:28.701 --> 00:15:29.001
Yeah.

00:15:29.623 --> 00:15:30.984
I actually felt really good with,

00:15:31.303 --> 00:15:32.104
with both of them.

00:15:32.163 --> 00:15:34.946
Like never really had any kind of issues.

00:15:35.105 --> 00:15:36.866
I'd scale where I needed to scale.

00:15:37.726 --> 00:15:38.488
Um,

00:15:38.508 --> 00:15:39.988
the first one I did a little bit more

00:15:40.067 --> 00:15:42.669
running longer throughout that pregnancy,

00:15:42.730 --> 00:15:43.789
but with the second one,

00:15:44.530 --> 00:15:45.812
I didn't feel like running as much.

00:15:45.871 --> 00:15:47.673
So I cut that back really early on.

00:15:48.173 --> 00:15:48.293
Um,

00:15:49.360 --> 00:15:50.340
But like after Madison,

00:15:50.480 --> 00:15:51.900
after my middle child, she,

00:15:52.542 --> 00:15:54.201
I was back in the gym like

00:15:54.241 --> 00:15:55.523
a week and a half later and

00:15:55.663 --> 00:15:56.543
I felt really good.

00:15:56.604 --> 00:15:58.384
And I think I even did a

00:15:58.424 --> 00:15:59.565
competition that summer.

00:16:01.966 --> 00:16:03.267
I recovered pretty quickly from her.

00:16:05.345 --> 00:16:07.245
So my next question to you

00:16:07.365 --> 00:16:10.849
is you join a CrossFit gym, you, you have,

00:16:10.889 --> 00:16:12.629
you're diagnosed with lupus and,

00:16:13.389 --> 00:16:14.791
and you figure out a way

00:16:14.831 --> 00:16:16.653
around traditional medical

00:16:16.692 --> 00:16:18.474
treatment and you go more,

00:16:19.313 --> 00:16:21.336
more organic and it works.

00:16:21.855 --> 00:16:22.756
Right.

00:16:22.876 --> 00:16:24.977
And so you've got to be, you know,

00:16:24.998 --> 00:16:26.678
they say CrossFitters love

00:16:26.698 --> 00:16:27.700
to talk about CrossFit.

00:16:28.159 --> 00:16:28.721
Like it,

00:16:28.801 --> 00:16:30.501
it had to change your life so much.

00:16:31.322 --> 00:16:33.283
Did, could, did you shut up about it ever?

00:16:34.226 --> 00:16:36.008
No, I mean, I'm, I was definitely that,

00:16:36.207 --> 00:16:37.648
that CrossFetter that is

00:16:37.687 --> 00:16:38.948
telling everybody at work

00:16:38.989 --> 00:16:40.668
and trying to get everybody to join.

00:16:40.808 --> 00:16:43.470
And, um, yeah,

00:16:43.870 --> 00:16:44.610
talking about it with my

00:16:44.649 --> 00:16:45.571
family and trying to get my

00:16:45.630 --> 00:16:46.711
family to go telling them

00:16:46.750 --> 00:16:47.870
how good I felt and,

00:16:48.211 --> 00:16:48.951
and they could see it.

00:16:48.971 --> 00:16:50.412
Like the people around you, it doesn't,

00:16:50.812 --> 00:16:52.092
you don't have to tell them all the time.

00:16:52.113 --> 00:16:53.432
They can see the differences

00:16:53.472 --> 00:16:54.753
in your body and your skin

00:16:54.813 --> 00:16:55.774
and all of the things.

00:16:56.553 --> 00:17:01.075
Um, so yeah, I definitely, and I still,

00:17:01.134 --> 00:17:02.615
even to this day, I mean,

00:17:03.592 --> 00:17:04.093
I will preach.

00:17:04.153 --> 00:17:05.012
It's the best thing that

00:17:05.053 --> 00:17:05.733
ever happened to me.

00:17:07.493 --> 00:17:07.773
Yeah.

00:17:07.794 --> 00:17:08.394
Amen to that.

00:17:08.713 --> 00:17:08.973
Yeah.

00:17:09.674 --> 00:17:10.714
I totally agree there.

00:17:10.734 --> 00:17:12.255
And, but the hardest,

00:17:12.295 --> 00:17:12.914
the hardest people to

00:17:12.954 --> 00:17:13.895
convince her family.

00:17:14.756 --> 00:17:15.056
Oh yeah.

00:17:16.596 --> 00:17:16.836
Yeah.

00:17:16.915 --> 00:17:17.676
Friends, friends,

00:17:17.696 --> 00:17:19.196
you can get them to jump on board.

00:17:19.717 --> 00:17:21.176
Yeah.

00:17:21.217 --> 00:17:22.298
Family, not so much.

00:17:24.897 --> 00:17:26.759
So my brother and his wife did CrossFit.

00:17:26.778 --> 00:17:27.898
They lived down in Houston

00:17:27.919 --> 00:17:28.959
for a while and they went to,

00:17:28.979 --> 00:17:31.660
I want to say it was CrossFit Memorial.

00:17:32.653 --> 00:17:34.674
And they had an elite athlete there.

00:17:34.694 --> 00:17:36.234
I think she was a regional

00:17:36.315 --> 00:17:37.056
athlete at the time.

00:17:37.155 --> 00:17:38.855
And they did CrossFit there,

00:17:38.875 --> 00:17:40.237
and then they did CrossFit in Jersey.

00:17:40.817 --> 00:17:43.498
And now they live just outside Columbus,

00:17:44.597 --> 00:17:45.298
and they still do it.

00:17:46.138 --> 00:17:47.460
I have several siblings,

00:17:48.519 --> 00:17:49.460
but my little brother was

00:17:49.480 --> 00:17:51.421
the only one that did CrossFit.

00:17:51.881 --> 00:17:54.082
What state, Columbus?

00:17:54.102 --> 00:17:54.781
Columbus, Ohio.

00:17:55.321 --> 00:17:56.583
So where I'm at.

00:17:57.653 --> 00:17:57.933
Oh, yeah.

00:17:58.094 --> 00:17:59.836
So he's, well,

00:18:00.076 --> 00:18:01.176
he's not right outside Columbus.

00:18:01.196 --> 00:18:01.576
He's in Stowe.

00:18:01.596 --> 00:18:03.638
Do you know where that is?

00:18:03.919 --> 00:18:05.420
Yeah.

00:18:05.480 --> 00:18:07.041
Okay.

00:18:07.061 --> 00:18:08.262
Yeah, I'm up north.

00:18:08.563 --> 00:18:09.344
I'm in Polaris.

00:18:09.364 --> 00:18:09.644
Polaris.

00:18:10.223 --> 00:18:13.666
So I go to what was Christy

00:18:13.787 --> 00:18:14.728
Arum O'Connell's gym.

00:18:15.249 --> 00:18:15.628
Oh, okay.

00:18:16.249 --> 00:18:17.410
And then she just sold the

00:18:17.430 --> 00:18:18.770
gym like three weeks ago.

00:18:19.652 --> 00:18:20.113
Oh, wow.

00:18:20.633 --> 00:18:20.893
Yeah.

00:18:20.972 --> 00:18:24.336
So, but yeah, it's the same vibe still.

00:18:24.695 --> 00:18:24.936
Yeah.

00:18:25.057 --> 00:18:26.557
They sold it to two members of the gym.

00:18:27.627 --> 00:18:28.769
She's doing the programming

00:18:28.808 --> 00:18:29.388
right now for .com, right?

00:18:29.509 --> 00:18:31.130
Or was it last week?

00:18:31.190 --> 00:18:31.390
Yeah.

00:18:32.270 --> 00:18:33.211
And then I saw something.

00:18:33.530 --> 00:18:35.031
It was like IBEX training.

00:18:35.092 --> 00:18:36.173
Is that her personal

00:18:36.192 --> 00:18:38.013
training platform that she does?

00:18:38.054 --> 00:18:39.394
Her and her husband, Patrick.

00:18:40.375 --> 00:18:41.395
Her husband is like an

00:18:41.455 --> 00:18:42.875
eight-time regional athlete.

00:18:42.895 --> 00:18:44.957
A lot of people don't even know that.

00:18:45.178 --> 00:18:45.817
Yeah.

00:18:45.958 --> 00:18:46.939
I did not know that.

00:18:46.959 --> 00:18:48.920
But he created IBEX training,

00:18:48.960 --> 00:18:52.121
which is just like HWPO.

00:18:52.161 --> 00:18:52.741
You can buy it.

00:18:54.061 --> 00:18:57.243
one track um and it's it can

00:18:57.284 --> 00:18:58.364
be it can be used for

00:18:58.443 --> 00:18:59.403
affiliates it can be used

00:18:59.423 --> 00:19:00.644
for an individual it can be

00:19:00.744 --> 00:19:02.125
compete but it has

00:19:02.165 --> 00:19:04.406
different levels um and

00:19:04.446 --> 00:19:06.307
then yeah it's it's the

00:19:06.366 --> 00:19:07.528
best programming I've ever

00:19:07.567 --> 00:19:09.409
done in my life really the

00:19:09.449 --> 00:19:11.269
most right the most fun for

00:19:11.308 --> 00:19:11.990
me because I'm not a

00:19:12.009 --> 00:19:13.269
competitive athlete I'm

00:19:13.309 --> 00:19:14.711
just gonna have fun and

00:19:14.750 --> 00:19:16.211
stay fit have you tried

00:19:16.230 --> 00:19:17.592
them all like have you tried all like

00:19:18.173 --> 00:19:19.775
like the mayhem and the HWPO.

00:19:20.075 --> 00:19:22.236
And I used to go to a different gym who,

00:19:22.415 --> 00:19:24.277
who went through a couple different, uh,

00:19:24.336 --> 00:19:25.037
programs.

00:19:25.657 --> 00:19:27.178
Uh, so they did comp train,

00:19:27.198 --> 00:19:28.199
they did mayhem.

00:19:28.219 --> 00:19:30.339
Uh, I've,

00:19:30.720 --> 00:19:33.820
I've seen HWPO and tried a couple of days,

00:19:33.861 --> 00:19:36.281
but that's so like intense.

00:19:36.382 --> 00:19:40.124
And we were, we had a short,

00:19:40.644 --> 00:19:43.566
a short spurt on HWPO after the twenty,

00:19:43.605 --> 00:19:44.425
twenty two games.

00:19:44.665 --> 00:19:46.007
Our gym was on that for a little while.

00:19:46.444 --> 00:19:47.685
And then we went back to our

00:19:47.726 --> 00:19:49.188
traditional programming,

00:19:49.347 --> 00:19:51.569
which is Marco Coppola's dense protocol,

00:19:52.550 --> 00:19:53.732
which we've pretty much all

00:19:53.772 --> 00:19:56.816
been on aside from that time at HWPU.

00:19:57.676 --> 00:19:57.777
Yeah,

00:19:57.817 --> 00:19:59.638
what I like about the IBEX is it's a

00:19:59.679 --> 00:20:00.598
lot of interval training.

00:20:01.079 --> 00:20:01.299
Yeah.

00:20:02.480 --> 00:20:03.842
And I seem to respond to

00:20:03.882 --> 00:20:06.263
that better than like just

00:20:06.284 --> 00:20:07.285
straight up long.

00:20:07.305 --> 00:20:09.165
And I say that,

00:20:09.205 --> 00:20:10.487
but like we have every

00:20:10.547 --> 00:20:13.169
Thursday was a like long, long workout.

00:20:13.189 --> 00:20:14.190
Mm-hmm.

00:20:14.230 --> 00:20:14.971
Forty minutes.

00:20:15.230 --> 00:20:15.391
Mm-hmm.

00:20:15.550 --> 00:20:17.712
And I don't know.

00:20:17.853 --> 00:20:18.693
I just really liked it.

00:20:18.753 --> 00:20:19.913
I enjoyed it compared to

00:20:19.934 --> 00:20:21.375
Mayhem and Comp Train for sure.

00:20:21.915 --> 00:20:23.257
Yeah.

00:20:23.376 --> 00:20:23.938
So were you at,

00:20:23.978 --> 00:20:24.657
did you go to the Rogue

00:20:24.678 --> 00:20:25.759
Invitational when it was

00:20:25.999 --> 00:20:26.799
the first year it was there?

00:20:28.876 --> 00:20:30.657
Uh, first, first three years.

00:20:30.959 --> 00:20:31.398
Yeah.

00:20:31.459 --> 00:20:32.780
So the second year was COVID

00:20:32.800 --> 00:20:34.521
and I was a judge.

00:20:35.202 --> 00:20:36.944
So I was sex and panchecks

00:20:36.984 --> 00:20:39.607
judge for that when they did it online.

00:20:39.728 --> 00:20:40.167
Oh, okay.

00:20:40.608 --> 00:20:40.848
Yep.

00:20:41.529 --> 00:20:41.670
Yeah.

00:20:41.690 --> 00:20:45.173
Uh, so yeah, both in Columbus though.

00:20:45.374 --> 00:20:46.375
Yeah.

00:20:46.454 --> 00:20:47.915
We went to that first year in Columbus.

00:20:47.935 --> 00:20:49.438
That was, that was pretty awesome.

00:20:51.596 --> 00:20:52.678
Before they started that,

00:20:52.718 --> 00:20:54.318
it was just a grass field

00:20:54.378 --> 00:20:55.779
in front of the country.

00:20:56.421 --> 00:20:57.882
And they turned it into a stadium,

00:20:57.922 --> 00:20:58.762
which was really cool.

00:20:59.242 --> 00:21:00.003
It was really cool.

00:21:01.944 --> 00:21:02.625
I love Rogue.

00:21:03.646 --> 00:21:05.147
My old office is only five

00:21:05.188 --> 00:21:05.928
minutes from them,

00:21:06.269 --> 00:21:07.470
which was really dangerous.

00:21:07.849 --> 00:21:08.250
Oh, wow.

00:21:08.430 --> 00:21:08.690
Yeah.

00:21:09.671 --> 00:21:10.051
You'd be like, oh,

00:21:10.071 --> 00:21:11.092
I'm just going to stop over

00:21:11.132 --> 00:21:12.432
here on my lunch break.

00:21:12.452 --> 00:21:12.532
Yeah.

00:21:14.859 --> 00:21:16.240
Corey Leonard says interval training.

00:21:16.260 --> 00:21:16.560
You say,

00:21:16.580 --> 00:21:18.501
have you heard of our Lord and Savior?

00:21:20.143 --> 00:21:20.823
Brandon Luckett.

00:21:20.843 --> 00:21:22.203
Corey, we have heard.

00:21:27.067 --> 00:21:28.768
So, yeah.

00:21:28.807 --> 00:21:31.548
So you you're in you're in CrossFit now.

00:21:32.088 --> 00:21:33.971
What was the switch to like

00:21:34.010 --> 00:21:36.372
make you a fan of the sport?

00:21:37.866 --> 00:21:40.529
Honestly, I was immediately a fan.

00:21:40.730 --> 00:21:43.493
So when I started in twenty

00:21:43.653 --> 00:21:45.135
ten and then and that was

00:21:45.175 --> 00:21:46.478
at the end of the year and

00:21:46.938 --> 00:21:48.019
everyone was talking about

00:21:48.119 --> 00:21:49.201
this online open.

00:21:49.240 --> 00:21:50.241
So the first year of the

00:21:50.342 --> 00:21:51.544
online open twenty eleven.

00:21:52.419 --> 00:21:53.240
At the beginning of the year.

00:21:53.259 --> 00:21:54.400
And I was like, well, what's that?

00:21:55.181 --> 00:21:57.281
And so I immediately hit the

00:21:57.321 --> 00:22:00.323
internet and I came across

00:22:00.943 --> 00:22:02.084
a video that was put out.

00:22:02.984 --> 00:22:05.185
It's Dave Castro, Greg Glassman,

00:22:05.205 --> 00:22:06.807
Nicole Carroll, Josh Everett,

00:22:06.846 --> 00:22:07.446
Tony Budding.

00:22:07.467 --> 00:22:09.528
They're all talking about CrossFit Games.

00:22:09.548 --> 00:22:11.509
I don't know if you remember that video.

00:22:12.568 --> 00:22:13.169
Um,

00:22:13.189 --> 00:22:14.470
but they're talking about the history

00:22:14.509 --> 00:22:15.609
of the games and they go

00:22:15.630 --> 00:22:16.809
through being out on, you know,

00:22:16.829 --> 00:22:18.230
Rancho de Castro and

00:22:18.691 --> 00:22:20.971
Woodstock of fitness and all that stuff.

00:22:21.031 --> 00:22:23.531
And after watching that video, I was like,

00:22:24.232 --> 00:22:25.853
okay, I need to see more.

00:22:26.452 --> 00:22:27.834
And so from there, it was like,

00:22:28.374 --> 00:22:30.114
I would consume any and all

00:22:30.153 --> 00:22:31.434
content I could find when

00:22:31.474 --> 00:22:33.234
it came to the CrossFit games.

00:22:34.236 --> 00:22:35.215
And it's always the big hype.

00:22:35.276 --> 00:22:36.856
It was so exciting that time of year.

00:22:36.896 --> 00:22:37.537
And you're watching the

00:22:37.576 --> 00:22:38.356
leaderboard and you're

00:22:38.376 --> 00:22:39.576
going to look on YouTube to

00:22:39.596 --> 00:22:41.577
see if anyone's posted videos and,

00:22:42.866 --> 00:22:45.789
Yeah, instant fan.

00:22:46.049 --> 00:22:46.990
It was weird for me because

00:22:47.070 --> 00:22:48.571
I started CrossFit in two thousand eleven,

00:22:50.334 --> 00:22:51.615
probably a year after you did.

00:22:52.483 --> 00:22:53.924
But my gym, they weren't,

00:22:54.405 --> 00:22:55.606
there were no elite athletes.

00:22:55.626 --> 00:22:57.788
There was no like talk of,

00:22:58.088 --> 00:22:59.150
they didn't even do the open.

00:22:59.951 --> 00:23:00.592
Okay.

00:23:00.951 --> 00:23:02.374
It wasn't until twenty

00:23:02.433 --> 00:23:03.835
thirteen that three of us

00:23:03.875 --> 00:23:04.996
decided to sign up.

00:23:06.557 --> 00:23:08.400
Me and my two buddies and we

00:23:08.420 --> 00:23:10.561
were like the guinea pigs to first do it.

00:23:10.962 --> 00:23:11.963
And then the next year it

00:23:12.023 --> 00:23:13.625
blew up like you paved the

00:23:13.664 --> 00:23:14.967
way for your gym.

00:23:15.027 --> 00:23:15.207
Yeah.

00:23:15.907 --> 00:23:16.648
The bad thing is there's

00:23:16.669 --> 00:23:18.029
still videos of me out

00:23:18.069 --> 00:23:19.090
there trying to get my

00:23:19.131 --> 00:23:20.211
first chest of our pool

00:23:20.752 --> 00:23:21.733
hanging from the pull up

00:23:21.773 --> 00:23:22.934
bar for like seven minutes.

00:23:24.916 --> 00:23:26.137
I think there was like sixty

00:23:26.178 --> 00:23:27.318
five pounds snatched that

00:23:27.378 --> 00:23:28.559
first year and I couldn't

00:23:28.599 --> 00:23:29.421
even snatch that.

00:23:29.441 --> 00:23:31.282
I was like it was it was awful,

00:23:31.863 --> 00:23:32.463
but it was fun.

00:23:32.483 --> 00:23:33.244
It was fun because it kind

00:23:33.265 --> 00:23:34.085
of made you feel like you

00:23:34.105 --> 00:23:35.105
were a part of everything.

00:23:35.165 --> 00:23:35.306
Right.

00:23:35.326 --> 00:23:36.186
Like you could follow around

00:23:36.207 --> 00:23:36.948
with the people that were

00:23:36.968 --> 00:23:38.469
just super amazing.

00:23:38.509 --> 00:23:39.790
But then you could also kind

00:23:39.830 --> 00:23:41.092
of participate in your own way.

00:23:41.883 --> 00:23:43.704
And I think there's

00:23:43.724 --> 00:23:44.884
something to be said for that too.

00:23:44.925 --> 00:23:45.425
Like if you,

00:23:45.605 --> 00:23:46.967
if your gym has more like

00:23:46.987 --> 00:23:48.048
competitive athletes,

00:23:48.087 --> 00:23:49.409
then there is going to be

00:23:49.449 --> 00:23:53.192
that instant awareness of

00:23:53.592 --> 00:23:54.853
the bigger stage,

00:23:54.893 --> 00:23:55.814
the games and everything

00:23:55.834 --> 00:23:56.714
that's going on there.

00:23:56.795 --> 00:23:57.375
So yeah,

00:23:57.435 --> 00:23:59.297
like we had some athletes that had

00:23:59.317 --> 00:24:01.419
a team that year at regionals.

00:24:02.599 --> 00:24:04.000
And when I say regionals,

00:24:04.181 --> 00:24:05.902
it was like in a field in

00:24:05.922 --> 00:24:06.762
the country where

00:24:07.309 --> 00:24:08.790
And like some small part of

00:24:08.830 --> 00:24:10.212
Houston that you didn't

00:24:10.232 --> 00:24:11.173
even know existed.

00:24:11.534 --> 00:24:13.075
And I remember like tugging

00:24:13.115 --> 00:24:15.657
my cooler and my kid and

00:24:15.738 --> 00:24:16.919
all my shit out there

00:24:16.959 --> 00:24:18.299
across the lawn to get to

00:24:18.319 --> 00:24:19.280
the bleachers that are at

00:24:19.300 --> 00:24:20.561
the back of this property.

00:24:20.662 --> 00:24:22.483
And there were like four

00:24:22.544 --> 00:24:23.724
sets of wooden bleachers

00:24:23.845 --> 00:24:24.945
all around the little thing

00:24:24.965 --> 00:24:27.888
they had outlined or the arena floor.

00:24:28.808 --> 00:24:30.230
Yeah, it was pretty crazy.

00:24:30.569 --> 00:24:32.672
And so from there, it was like, oh, well,

00:24:32.692 --> 00:24:33.432
this is really cool.

00:24:33.472 --> 00:24:34.252
And I started getting to

00:24:34.292 --> 00:24:35.874
know those local athletes.

00:24:36.515 --> 00:24:37.414
So it was back when like

00:24:37.895 --> 00:24:39.277
Asia Bardo was coming up

00:24:39.376 --> 00:24:41.919
and Carrie Kepler and Lisa Teal.

00:24:41.959 --> 00:24:43.420
And yeah,

00:24:43.839 --> 00:24:45.260
I even remember I still have like

00:24:45.320 --> 00:24:46.201
one of those really old

00:24:46.261 --> 00:24:47.303
books that they made with

00:24:47.323 --> 00:24:48.683
all the athletes in it from

00:24:48.723 --> 00:24:49.625
the regional that year.

00:24:49.644 --> 00:24:50.164
It's pretty cool.

00:24:51.501 --> 00:24:51.642
Yeah,

00:24:52.201 --> 00:24:53.423
we were lucky here in Columbus

00:24:53.462 --> 00:24:56.365
because it was held at our fairgrounds,

00:24:56.845 --> 00:24:58.006
the Ohio State Fairgrounds.

00:24:58.226 --> 00:24:58.506
Yeah.

00:24:58.786 --> 00:25:01.247
And then this region was

00:25:01.287 --> 00:25:02.988
just jam-packed full of the

00:25:03.008 --> 00:25:06.289
Rich Froning stuff, Graham Holzer,

00:25:06.309 --> 00:25:07.070
Marcus Hendren.

00:25:07.090 --> 00:25:08.892
Yeah.

00:25:09.412 --> 00:25:11.432
So when I dove into that first Open,

00:25:11.913 --> 00:25:14.515
then I wanted everything about the sport.

00:25:15.494 --> 00:25:16.394
I wanted to follow this the

00:25:16.414 --> 00:25:17.135
whole way through.

00:25:17.875 --> 00:25:21.435
And that year, all those guys were at our,

00:25:22.096 --> 00:25:23.277
our regional here in

00:25:23.297 --> 00:25:25.757
Columbus and I was hooked for life.

00:25:25.876 --> 00:25:28.077
Yeah, it's definitely, it's,

00:25:28.417 --> 00:25:29.438
it's such a cool

00:25:29.478 --> 00:25:30.498
environment to be around.

00:25:31.499 --> 00:25:32.159
It was so exciting.

00:25:32.179 --> 00:25:32.759
And I brought the kit,

00:25:32.818 --> 00:25:33.979
my daughter and she loved it.

00:25:34.058 --> 00:25:35.138
And a lot of people from our

00:25:35.159 --> 00:25:36.199
gym came and then it kind

00:25:36.239 --> 00:25:37.059
of just got to be a thing.

00:25:37.119 --> 00:25:38.559
Okay, well now we have to go next year.

00:25:39.178 --> 00:25:40.159
And then the next year it was,

00:25:40.338 --> 00:25:41.279
it moved into a bigger

00:25:41.359 --> 00:25:43.641
stadium and then the next year.

00:25:43.882 --> 00:25:45.163
So I started at a gym.

00:25:45.222 --> 00:25:46.663
I was there for two and a half years.

00:25:46.804 --> 00:25:48.944
And then, um,

00:25:48.964 --> 00:25:50.507
some of the coaches there had

00:25:50.547 --> 00:25:52.969
met Marco and he was going

00:25:52.989 --> 00:25:53.949
to open up his gym.

00:25:54.088 --> 00:25:54.910
And a lot of people kind of

00:25:54.950 --> 00:25:56.030
liked what he was doing

00:25:56.050 --> 00:25:56.991
with his programming and

00:25:57.031 --> 00:25:57.652
things like that.

00:25:57.731 --> 00:25:59.373
So I kind of went to go

00:25:59.413 --> 00:26:01.994
check it out and yeah,

00:26:02.035 --> 00:26:03.455
so started with him.

00:26:03.497 --> 00:26:04.537
And then they immediately,

00:26:04.616 --> 00:26:05.778
that gym immediately had a

00:26:05.837 --> 00:26:07.940
team at regionals, um,

00:26:09.157 --> 00:26:10.098
And then pretty much every

00:26:10.138 --> 00:26:11.818
year we had a team at regional.

00:26:11.898 --> 00:26:13.759
So it was like, we, the whole gym would go,

00:26:13.779 --> 00:26:15.340
we, our whole crew, we'd all, you know,

00:26:15.361 --> 00:26:16.642
get hotels together and,

00:26:18.563 --> 00:26:19.864
and go watch the team and support.

00:26:19.884 --> 00:26:21.163
We've got all the shirts

00:26:21.203 --> 00:26:22.644
from every year regionals

00:26:22.785 --> 00:26:23.925
on all that stuff.

00:26:23.945 --> 00:26:25.886
So we've w we're probably

00:26:26.027 --> 00:26:26.727
one of the more like

00:26:26.747 --> 00:26:29.788
hardcore fan gems in the area.

00:26:29.828 --> 00:26:31.349
I would say just because of that fact.

00:26:33.068 --> 00:26:34.148
Yeah, I love it.

00:26:34.869 --> 00:26:36.049
The community aspect of it

00:26:36.089 --> 00:26:36.710
is the best part.

00:26:36.730 --> 00:26:38.490
It really is.

00:26:38.570 --> 00:26:39.030
It's so awesome.

00:26:39.070 --> 00:26:40.811
I'm like,

00:26:40.852 --> 00:26:41.751
I don't understand why more

00:26:41.771 --> 00:26:42.853
people don't want to do this.

00:26:44.933 --> 00:26:45.074
Yeah.

00:26:45.094 --> 00:26:45.814
It's so much fun.

00:26:45.993 --> 00:26:46.653
Hi, Barry.

00:26:46.673 --> 00:26:51.695
Yeah, so now you're consuming it all.

00:26:52.156 --> 00:26:52.416
Yeah.

00:26:53.737 --> 00:26:55.377
If I look at your Instagram

00:26:55.978 --> 00:26:58.098
before you switch over to Dense Updates,

00:26:58.578 --> 00:27:01.621
it was a lot of your progress,

00:27:01.740 --> 00:27:02.641
like kind of showing what

00:27:02.661 --> 00:27:03.661
you're doing in the gym.

00:27:04.221 --> 00:27:06.363
And the cool part is you're

00:27:06.383 --> 00:27:07.603
making these videos where

00:27:07.643 --> 00:27:08.804
you're showing what you're

00:27:08.824 --> 00:27:10.304
doing in the gym and then

00:27:10.324 --> 00:27:11.204
you're showing like the

00:27:11.845 --> 00:27:13.306
same movement in real life.

00:27:14.826 --> 00:27:15.007
right?

00:27:15.047 --> 00:27:16.367
Like you're lifting a sandbag,

00:27:16.728 --> 00:27:17.689
you turn and now it's,

00:27:17.808 --> 00:27:18.329
you're holding your

00:27:18.369 --> 00:27:21.491
daughter or those are fun for a deadlift.

00:27:21.531 --> 00:27:22.272
And then you're lifting a

00:27:22.292 --> 00:27:24.355
laundry basket or like,

00:27:24.515 --> 00:27:26.155
I thought those were really cool.

00:27:26.195 --> 00:27:26.715
Thank you.

00:27:26.736 --> 00:27:27.517
That was a lot of fun.

00:27:27.537 --> 00:27:30.859
We are, um, our gym owner was pushing, um,

00:27:31.559 --> 00:27:33.122
like a media challenge this summer.

00:27:33.362 --> 00:27:34.722
And I was trying to think of

00:27:34.762 --> 00:27:35.683
just more creative ways.

00:27:35.723 --> 00:27:37.325
Cause usually it's just me

00:27:37.365 --> 00:27:38.425
and my group of friends

00:27:38.506 --> 00:27:39.747
lifting or doing whatever.

00:27:39.767 --> 00:27:40.867
And sometimes I would Mike

00:27:40.907 --> 00:27:42.269
us up and just catch some

00:27:42.308 --> 00:27:43.410
of our funny moments and

00:27:44.574 --> 00:27:45.634
I don't know how many people

00:27:45.693 --> 00:27:46.713
even ever watch those,

00:27:46.753 --> 00:27:48.755
but we thought they were funny.

00:27:49.394 --> 00:27:51.575
Um, but then the challenge was like, uh,

00:27:51.695 --> 00:27:53.536
it kind of like pushed me to, you know,

00:27:53.596 --> 00:27:54.635
try something different.

00:27:54.695 --> 00:27:57.596
And so, um, yeah, I was like, how can I,

00:27:58.017 --> 00:27:59.537
how can I use some of this

00:27:59.576 --> 00:28:00.616
movement and show how

00:28:00.717 --> 00:28:02.178
functional it is and how you're,

00:28:02.538 --> 00:28:03.498
you're probably already

00:28:03.518 --> 00:28:04.178
doing those things.

00:28:04.198 --> 00:28:05.278
You just don't realize it.

00:28:05.877 --> 00:28:06.298
And so, yeah,

00:28:06.318 --> 00:28:07.818
I really liked the one with the, um,

00:28:08.628 --> 00:28:10.009
the clean into the push jerk.

00:28:10.369 --> 00:28:10.710
And it was like,

00:28:10.750 --> 00:28:11.630
I was picking something up

00:28:11.650 --> 00:28:12.691
in the closet and putting

00:28:12.730 --> 00:28:15.531
it up into the shelf overhead.

00:28:16.491 --> 00:28:17.192
Yeah, those were fun.

00:28:17.432 --> 00:28:18.113
And then I got my daughter

00:28:18.173 --> 00:28:19.393
in on that sandbag one.

00:28:21.134 --> 00:28:22.334
Yeah, they were brilliant.

00:28:22.473 --> 00:28:24.055
And those are things that I

00:28:24.095 --> 00:28:25.355
think like CrossFit Media

00:28:25.375 --> 00:28:28.896
should use to promote the methodology.

00:28:28.936 --> 00:28:31.117
Like I think it's to show

00:28:31.178 --> 00:28:32.238
like the reason you're

00:28:32.278 --> 00:28:33.979
doing this is so that for

00:28:33.999 --> 00:28:34.878
the rest of your life,

00:28:34.898 --> 00:28:36.619
you can do the everyday

00:28:36.660 --> 00:28:37.319
things in your home.

00:28:37.910 --> 00:28:38.630
Yeah, absolutely.

00:28:38.711 --> 00:28:39.810
And more affiliates too.

00:28:39.851 --> 00:28:41.571
Like our gym owner had a

00:28:41.592 --> 00:28:42.673
great idea there doing that,

00:28:42.712 --> 00:28:44.054
that media challenge and trying to get,

00:28:44.094 --> 00:28:44.713
it was kind of like we

00:28:44.733 --> 00:28:46.894
could all get points for our content.

00:28:46.914 --> 00:28:48.455
And at the end of the summer,

00:28:48.496 --> 00:28:49.856
he'd pick a winner or, you know,

00:28:49.896 --> 00:28:50.277
pick a winner,

00:28:50.297 --> 00:28:51.258
whoever had the most points.

00:28:51.637 --> 00:28:52.438
So it's like getting your,

00:28:53.038 --> 00:28:54.259
your member base involved

00:28:54.298 --> 00:28:55.359
to make that content and

00:28:55.400 --> 00:28:56.259
put that out there as well.

00:28:56.299 --> 00:28:57.560
Just gets more eyes on it.

00:28:57.580 --> 00:28:59.422
And yeah,

00:28:59.442 --> 00:29:00.522
like you can tag CrossFit and

00:29:00.583 --> 00:29:02.763
maybe they'll collaborate, but it really,

00:29:03.503 --> 00:29:04.704
it's us and the people in

00:29:04.724 --> 00:29:06.145
the gyms and the affiliates that,

00:29:06.653 --> 00:29:07.653
are putting the most content

00:29:07.693 --> 00:29:08.413
out there and making the

00:29:08.433 --> 00:29:10.555
most impact in that way.

00:29:10.575 --> 00:29:13.997
Have you ever got CrossFit to collaborate?

00:29:14.096 --> 00:29:15.278
I do not believe so.

00:29:17.199 --> 00:29:17.739
Just checking.

00:29:17.839 --> 00:29:18.680
I have to think about that.

00:29:20.040 --> 00:29:20.621
I don't think so.

00:29:20.721 --> 00:29:20.881
No.

00:29:21.721 --> 00:29:22.662
And all the stuff that I've

00:29:22.701 --> 00:29:24.363
tagged them in one time, they,

00:29:24.423 --> 00:29:26.023
they shared.

00:29:27.785 --> 00:29:28.125
Yeah.

00:29:28.144 --> 00:29:28.786
Collaborated.

00:29:29.365 --> 00:29:29.566
Yeah.

00:29:30.426 --> 00:29:32.347
If they dive a little further down my,

00:29:33.969 --> 00:29:35.809
my Instagram, I think I have a comp,

00:29:36.488 --> 00:29:39.288
video on there of me and my bestie.

00:29:40.028 --> 00:29:41.288
And the shirts that year

00:29:41.308 --> 00:29:42.589
were a little controversial,

00:29:42.710 --> 00:29:44.309
so that might be why they

00:29:44.329 --> 00:29:49.750
wouldn't want to post any of my stuff.

00:29:49.912 --> 00:29:54.472
Yeah, just said Trump won.

00:29:54.752 --> 00:29:55.792
Rich Froning thought it was cool.

00:29:55.813 --> 00:29:56.992
He was there that year.

00:29:57.133 --> 00:29:57.953
It was at BCS,

00:29:57.973 --> 00:29:59.134
the one that he programs for.

00:29:59.886 --> 00:30:00.748
Yeah, yeah.

00:30:00.768 --> 00:30:01.167
Yeah, yeah.

00:30:01.208 --> 00:30:03.049
Like right after all that drama.

00:30:03.109 --> 00:30:04.631
So it was fitting.

00:30:04.651 --> 00:30:05.351
That looks like a fun

00:30:05.371 --> 00:30:07.292
competition to go to someday.

00:30:07.313 --> 00:30:07.973
That's a good one.

00:30:08.413 --> 00:30:09.214
That's definitely one of the

00:30:09.234 --> 00:30:10.194
bigger ones around here

00:30:10.895 --> 00:30:12.317
that our gym does every year.

00:30:12.537 --> 00:30:14.219
That one in TFX, that one's coming up.

00:30:14.239 --> 00:30:15.118
We've got a lot of teams

00:30:15.138 --> 00:30:16.200
that are going to be competing there.

00:30:17.080 --> 00:30:17.721
And I love that they're

00:30:17.740 --> 00:30:18.862
throwing masters in now.

00:30:19.001 --> 00:30:21.463
That's good for us old folk

00:30:21.483 --> 00:30:23.546
because I'm not going to lie,

00:30:23.566 --> 00:30:24.426
it gets hard when you're in

00:30:24.446 --> 00:30:25.448
your forties to keep up

00:30:25.468 --> 00:30:26.929
with those twenty-year-olds.

00:30:27.469 --> 00:30:27.789
It does.

00:30:27.829 --> 00:30:28.170
Yeah.

00:30:29.468 --> 00:30:31.069
So see the big jug says, wait,

00:30:31.109 --> 00:30:31.990
did I meet Jenny at the

00:30:32.029 --> 00:30:33.290
twenty twenty three games

00:30:33.691 --> 00:30:35.692
with a baby that said get to the chopper?

00:30:37.583 --> 00:30:39.565
No, actually we did not go that year.

00:30:39.625 --> 00:30:40.924
I was at twenty twenty four.

00:30:41.526 --> 00:30:42.567
I was there this year and

00:30:42.606 --> 00:30:44.627
then twenty twenty to our

00:30:44.667 --> 00:30:46.449
team in Madison.

00:30:46.950 --> 00:30:47.630
And that was really cool.

00:30:47.690 --> 00:30:48.411
I didn't get to go.

00:30:48.490 --> 00:30:49.570
Our team went in twenty

00:30:50.172 --> 00:30:52.472
sixteen out in Carson,

00:30:52.633 --> 00:30:54.714
but I just had my youngest

00:30:54.755 --> 00:30:56.395
child and then the other

00:30:56.415 --> 00:30:57.537
one was still in diapers.

00:30:57.616 --> 00:30:59.238
And I was just like, there's no way we're.

00:30:59.886 --> 00:31:00.827
even going to try this with

00:31:00.868 --> 00:31:02.190
a one month old and the

00:31:02.230 --> 00:31:03.352
other one I was like that

00:31:03.392 --> 00:31:04.894
would have just been zero

00:31:04.913 --> 00:31:05.935
fun for us and I didn't

00:31:05.955 --> 00:31:06.616
want to put them through

00:31:06.636 --> 00:31:07.498
that especially it being

00:31:08.038 --> 00:31:09.361
outdoors and in the sun the

00:31:09.401 --> 00:31:10.122
whole time I was like

00:31:10.142 --> 00:31:11.963
that's just too much

00:31:12.005 --> 00:31:13.066
preparation so I had to

00:31:13.105 --> 00:31:14.347
sadly watch that one from home

00:31:15.807 --> 00:31:18.969
So my, my next question is you,

00:31:19.328 --> 00:31:22.509
you make this transition from these,

00:31:22.650 --> 00:31:24.009
these videos about you and

00:31:24.049 --> 00:31:25.351
you kind of getting better

00:31:25.891 --> 00:31:27.711
to now like updating

00:31:27.751 --> 00:31:29.332
everybody on what's going on,

00:31:29.412 --> 00:31:30.071
on all the different

00:31:30.112 --> 00:31:31.272
content aspects in the

00:31:31.313 --> 00:31:33.512
space and the timing of that.

00:31:34.512 --> 00:31:35.294
I know that you're,

00:31:35.334 --> 00:31:36.334
you're friends with Marco

00:31:37.173 --> 00:31:39.194
and his kind of like first

00:31:40.700 --> 00:31:41.259
uh,

00:31:41.279 --> 00:31:44.060
video on what happened at the games out

00:31:44.280 --> 00:31:45.481
and you start doing these

00:31:45.521 --> 00:31:47.522
updates almost the exact same time.

00:31:47.643 --> 00:31:49.022
Yeah.

00:31:49.063 --> 00:31:52.505
Was that just coincidence or, um, no,

00:31:52.605 --> 00:31:52.884
I mean,

00:31:53.444 --> 00:31:56.506
so because I consume so much

00:31:56.546 --> 00:31:58.406
content and I have that

00:31:58.527 --> 00:32:00.627
long history of knowing all

00:32:00.647 --> 00:32:02.067
the things I'm kind of

00:32:02.188 --> 00:32:03.108
always been known as that

00:32:03.148 --> 00:32:03.949
person in the gym.

00:32:03.969 --> 00:32:05.349
Like if they want to ask a

00:32:05.390 --> 00:32:06.549
question about something or they,

00:32:06.980 --> 00:32:08.141
somebody will randomly come up and be like,

00:32:08.161 --> 00:32:08.300
Ginny,

00:32:08.320 --> 00:32:09.681
what was that one workout that one

00:32:09.721 --> 00:32:11.382
year at the open and this or that or,

00:32:11.701 --> 00:32:11.961
you know,

00:32:12.061 --> 00:32:14.083
and ninety nine point nine

00:32:14.123 --> 00:32:16.324
percent of the time I have the answer.

00:32:16.423 --> 00:32:18.345
So it's kind of just like, go ask Ginny.

00:32:18.365 --> 00:32:19.845
She knows, you know, one of those things.

00:32:19.884 --> 00:32:22.266
And so I've always thought

00:32:22.306 --> 00:32:25.387
about wanting to do something like this.

00:32:25.508 --> 00:32:26.008
I just.

00:32:28.338 --> 00:32:28.659
I don't know.

00:32:28.719 --> 00:32:29.940
It just was never the right time.

00:32:30.000 --> 00:32:30.960
I was either too busy with

00:32:31.039 --> 00:32:33.721
work or personal life or whatever.

00:32:35.321 --> 00:32:36.423
And then everything kind of

00:32:36.442 --> 00:32:37.962
happened at the games.

00:32:38.063 --> 00:32:40.584
And then there was just so

00:32:40.683 --> 00:32:43.144
much content all at one

00:32:43.185 --> 00:32:45.145
time and just everywhere.

00:32:45.987 --> 00:32:47.086
And, you know,

00:32:47.106 --> 00:32:48.208
people would be asking me in

00:32:48.228 --> 00:32:49.567
the gym and I'm just like,

00:32:49.728 --> 00:32:50.729
I'm going to just make a video.

00:32:50.749 --> 00:32:51.308
I'm like,

00:32:51.368 --> 00:32:52.690
I'm just going to all the stuff

00:32:52.769 --> 00:32:53.390
I've consumed.

00:32:53.410 --> 00:32:54.049
I'm just going to try to

00:32:54.150 --> 00:32:56.510
lump it all together in ninety seconds.

00:32:56.730 --> 00:32:57.771
And there you go.

00:32:58.621 --> 00:33:00.101
And so that's kind of how that started.

00:33:02.061 --> 00:33:03.801
It did help that Marco was

00:33:03.862 --> 00:33:04.902
also putting out content

00:33:04.922 --> 00:33:06.942
because I could kind of use that as well.

00:33:07.022 --> 00:33:10.002
But there are so many voices in the space.

00:33:10.103 --> 00:33:10.943
And, you know,

00:33:10.963 --> 00:33:13.324
with Sevan and Talking Elite

00:33:13.344 --> 00:33:15.744
Fitness and you guys and Barbell Spin.

00:33:15.805 --> 00:33:17.505
And there's just so much out there.

00:33:18.384 --> 00:33:20.006
And then aside from Instagram, it's like,

00:33:20.026 --> 00:33:20.165
oh,

00:33:20.685 --> 00:33:21.945
people all ask someone if they had

00:33:22.006 --> 00:33:22.645
seen something.

00:33:22.705 --> 00:33:23.586
And they're like, oh, no,

00:33:23.645 --> 00:33:24.307
I didn't see that.

00:33:24.406 --> 00:33:26.527
So that's kind of where it stemmed from.

00:33:28.442 --> 00:33:31.182
did you anticipate like the

00:33:31.262 --> 00:33:32.603
response you would get and

00:33:32.643 --> 00:33:36.243
how many people started watching these?

00:33:36.624 --> 00:33:38.944
No, I mean, honestly, none of my,

00:33:39.625 --> 00:33:41.244
I would say if you go back and look,

00:33:41.265 --> 00:33:42.285
a lot of my videos are kind

00:33:42.305 --> 00:33:43.925
of like around the one

00:33:43.965 --> 00:33:45.766
thousand to fifteen hundred view.

00:33:45.786 --> 00:33:46.865
Like I just figured somebody

00:33:46.905 --> 00:33:48.027
might come across something

00:33:48.166 --> 00:33:50.247
or but if somebody happens to share it,

00:33:50.287 --> 00:33:51.288
then you see that it gets

00:33:51.347 --> 00:33:52.827
more views and that sort of thing.

00:33:52.867 --> 00:33:53.048
But

00:33:53.692 --> 00:33:55.353
honestly I didn't really

00:33:55.393 --> 00:33:56.794
have any expectations for

00:33:56.814 --> 00:33:57.773
it I just wanted to put it

00:33:57.814 --> 00:33:58.714
out there and if somebody

00:33:58.755 --> 00:34:02.037
finds it great if if not

00:34:02.356 --> 00:34:03.817
okay it's there if you ever

00:34:03.857 --> 00:34:06.739
want to find it so what I

00:34:06.778 --> 00:34:09.300
love about it is like the

00:34:09.340 --> 00:34:10.782
weekend I was in birmingham

00:34:10.822 --> 00:34:13.603
with the masters right I

00:34:13.643 --> 00:34:15.164
because I was there all day

00:34:15.364 --> 00:34:17.065
I had no time to to consume

00:34:17.184 --> 00:34:18.306
any content yeah

00:34:18.976 --> 00:34:20.297
So then for my drive home,

00:34:20.777 --> 00:34:22.157
I go to your Instagram to

00:34:22.177 --> 00:34:23.778
hear what are the hot

00:34:23.818 --> 00:34:25.300
topics where they're at.

00:34:26.159 --> 00:34:27.681
And then I line up my queue

00:34:27.760 --> 00:34:29.641
to listen on the drive home.

00:34:29.762 --> 00:34:30.041
Yeah.

00:34:31.123 --> 00:34:32.083
And it it's perfect.

00:34:32.143 --> 00:34:33.284
And if I ever get like,

00:34:34.652 --> 00:34:35.632
where I just need balance in

00:34:35.673 --> 00:34:36.534
my life and I need some

00:34:36.574 --> 00:34:38.135
family time and I just

00:34:38.175 --> 00:34:39.195
check out for a day,

00:34:39.695 --> 00:34:41.536
I can go to your update and see, okay,

00:34:42.177 --> 00:34:43.297
who said what, where,

00:34:43.416 --> 00:34:44.577
and where do I need to go,

00:34:45.097 --> 00:34:46.418
like get caught up.

00:34:47.338 --> 00:34:48.559
And it really helps me sort

00:34:48.659 --> 00:34:51.041
out like what I'm going to listen to.

00:34:51.101 --> 00:34:51.460
Yay.

00:34:52.001 --> 00:34:53.641
Well, I love that.

00:34:53.822 --> 00:34:55.063
And I don't know if you even

00:34:55.103 --> 00:34:56.523
had that intention of it,

00:34:57.403 --> 00:34:58.764
but it helps me tremendously.

00:34:59.655 --> 00:35:00.135
Yeah, I mean,

00:35:00.757 --> 00:35:02.398
I guess that really is the

00:35:02.438 --> 00:35:03.798
intent behind it because of

00:35:03.818 --> 00:35:04.798
the fact that there are so

00:35:04.838 --> 00:35:05.739
many things out there and

00:35:05.760 --> 00:35:07.860
people might not know what

00:35:07.900 --> 00:35:08.521
they're missing.

00:35:09.181 --> 00:35:10.623
It's like if you can try to

00:35:10.682 --> 00:35:12.684
just touch on a little bit of everything,

00:35:12.704 --> 00:35:13.565
then they can decide for

00:35:13.585 --> 00:35:14.465
themselves what they want

00:35:14.505 --> 00:35:15.485
to go listen to.

00:35:16.507 --> 00:35:17.047
Yeah.

00:35:17.288 --> 00:35:18.467
I did a poll the other day

00:35:18.487 --> 00:35:19.568
because I was just curious

00:35:19.588 --> 00:35:21.150
like how many of the people

00:35:21.190 --> 00:35:22.731
that do regularly follow me

00:35:22.831 --> 00:35:24.331
or even bother to look at my story,

00:35:24.371 --> 00:35:25.632
I wanted to see like what

00:35:25.672 --> 00:35:26.954
content they're consuming regularly.

00:35:27.454 --> 00:35:28.536
And so it was just, you know,

00:35:28.675 --> 00:35:29.056
which podcast,

00:35:29.215 --> 00:35:30.476
and it was basically all the podcasts,

00:35:30.496 --> 00:35:31.697
which ones do you watch the

00:35:32.197 --> 00:35:33.677
froning and you guys and

00:35:34.259 --> 00:35:35.018
spin and all the ones that

00:35:35.039 --> 00:35:36.159
I already talked about and sub on.

00:35:36.199 --> 00:35:36.500
And it's,

00:35:37.440 --> 00:35:38.481
it seems to be a lot of the

00:35:38.521 --> 00:35:40.262
people who consume the same

00:35:40.322 --> 00:35:42.103
amount of content are the

00:35:42.182 --> 00:35:44.143
ones that are following along as well.

00:35:44.384 --> 00:35:46.565
So I found that interesting.

00:35:47.585 --> 00:35:48.485
Yeah.

00:35:48.505 --> 00:35:49.485
Just because they know a lot

00:35:49.505 --> 00:35:50.626
of that content already.

00:35:50.706 --> 00:35:50.967
Right.

00:35:51.007 --> 00:35:53.467
But they're still coming to

00:35:53.507 --> 00:35:55.889
my page to check it out.

00:35:55.929 --> 00:35:56.409
So that's cool.

00:35:57.434 --> 00:35:59.235
Have you noticed a shift in

00:35:59.596 --> 00:36:01.016
the responses you get now

00:36:01.056 --> 00:36:04.739
on your Instagram or the DMs?

00:36:04.958 --> 00:36:05.679
No, I don't.

00:36:05.820 --> 00:36:06.739
I usually would just,

00:36:08.420 --> 00:36:10.862
I wouldn't get a ton of DMs.

00:36:10.922 --> 00:36:12.023
There's a couple of people

00:36:12.063 --> 00:36:13.023
who like really want to

00:36:13.043 --> 00:36:14.483
talk in depth about stuff.

00:36:16.525 --> 00:36:17.226
And I'll respond.

00:36:17.246 --> 00:36:20.907
Like I try to respond to everybody, but no,

00:36:21.188 --> 00:36:21.768
no change.

00:36:21.827 --> 00:36:23.009
Just like a couple of people

00:36:23.048 --> 00:36:24.789
have actually commented on the videos,

00:36:24.829 --> 00:36:25.929
just being like, Hey, thanks.

00:36:25.949 --> 00:36:26.471
Appreciate it.

00:36:26.490 --> 00:36:26.891
Keep it up.

00:36:27.096 --> 00:36:27.835
which I think is cool.

00:36:28.876 --> 00:36:30.197
So I don't,

00:36:30.538 --> 00:36:32.197
right now I don't spend a ton

00:36:32.219 --> 00:36:34.320
of time on making the video.

00:36:34.460 --> 00:36:36.000
Cause like I told you earlier, I,

00:36:36.099 --> 00:36:37.981
I just try to just go off the fly.

00:36:38.021 --> 00:36:38.942
Like what I remember I

00:36:38.981 --> 00:36:40.603
consumed and what key

00:36:40.623 --> 00:36:41.762
things I think people might

00:36:41.782 --> 00:36:42.543
want to know about.

00:36:42.623 --> 00:36:44.625
And then I just kind of, you know,

00:36:44.684 --> 00:36:46.105
plug them all in and make

00:36:46.125 --> 00:36:47.465
the videos and trim where needed.

00:36:47.525 --> 00:36:48.746
If I start rambling.

00:36:51.947 --> 00:36:53.548
Yeah.

00:36:53.568 --> 00:36:54.568
That's my train of thought there.

00:36:54.829 --> 00:36:55.789
Your iPhone to do it all.

00:36:56.505 --> 00:36:56.684
Yeah.

00:36:57.125 --> 00:36:58.085
I'm just using my iPhone.

00:36:58.106 --> 00:37:00.666
I have like a little iPhone stand that I,

00:37:00.706 --> 00:37:01.606
the same one I use at the

00:37:01.646 --> 00:37:03.907
gym and I just pull it up

00:37:03.967 --> 00:37:06.630
and find some sunlight and

00:37:07.170 --> 00:37:07.829
get to recording.

00:37:09.931 --> 00:37:11.231
Um, Corey Lawrence says,

00:37:11.291 --> 00:37:12.411
I'm not one of those people.

00:37:12.452 --> 00:37:13.672
I like dark humor and blueberry.

00:37:13.793 --> 00:37:13.833
Um,

00:37:19.244 --> 00:37:21.144
So do you have hard, fast rules?

00:37:21.184 --> 00:37:21.824
Like you say,

00:37:22.284 --> 00:37:23.244
what would I can get in in

00:37:23.284 --> 00:37:23.945
ninety seconds?

00:37:23.965 --> 00:37:25.186
Do you go by the Instagram

00:37:25.266 --> 00:37:27.786
real rules like you make

00:37:27.806 --> 00:37:29.867
sure it's under ninety every time or?

00:37:31.367 --> 00:37:31.907
Yeah, I mean,

00:37:31.947 --> 00:37:33.168
right now I'm only doing them

00:37:33.307 --> 00:37:34.148
on Instagram.

00:37:34.487 --> 00:37:36.188
I have been like posting

00:37:36.208 --> 00:37:37.889
them over to the YouTube channel as well.

00:37:37.969 --> 00:37:39.509
I did make one YouTube video

00:37:39.608 --> 00:37:40.650
and that was just kind of

00:37:41.230 --> 00:37:42.150
me breaking down the

00:37:42.210 --> 00:37:43.590
timeline because I had a

00:37:43.630 --> 00:37:45.331
lot of people at my at the gym and

00:37:46.121 --> 00:37:46.742
Just be like, oh,

00:37:46.782 --> 00:37:48.163
if I sit down to read that timeline,

00:37:48.182 --> 00:37:49.143
it's going to take me like

00:37:49.744 --> 00:37:51.947
an hour because it was so in depth.

00:37:51.967 --> 00:37:54.190
And I mean, it was so good.

00:37:54.230 --> 00:37:55.110
It was so detailed.

00:37:55.931 --> 00:37:56.753
So I just kind of went

00:37:56.793 --> 00:37:57.793
through it and read some of

00:37:57.833 --> 00:37:59.195
the all of the stuff that

00:37:59.235 --> 00:38:00.277
really stood out to me.

00:38:00.317 --> 00:38:00.978
And that's, you know,

00:38:00.998 --> 00:38:01.757
some of the stuff we didn't

00:38:01.798 --> 00:38:03.740
know and and things like that.

00:38:04.681 --> 00:38:05.463
But other than that, yeah,

00:38:05.483 --> 00:38:06.563
I'm just doing the ninety

00:38:06.623 --> 00:38:07.525
second reels right now.

00:38:09.505 --> 00:38:13.987
Do you see... So I noticed early on,

00:38:14.347 --> 00:38:15.746
it was just, hey,

00:38:16.568 --> 00:38:17.628
Siobhan talked about this.

00:38:17.688 --> 00:38:18.827
Hey, if you go over to Hiller,

00:38:19.329 --> 00:38:22.050
he did this with Danny, blah, blah, blah.

00:38:22.070 --> 00:38:25.771
Then as you've gone along,

00:38:26.231 --> 00:38:27.331
you're inserting a little

00:38:27.351 --> 00:38:30.331
bit of your own editorial comments now.

00:38:31.833 --> 00:38:33.333
Like the courage is growing.

00:38:34.534 --> 00:38:35.614
Now you're throwing in more.

00:38:36.135 --> 00:38:36.755
Do you see...

00:38:37.940 --> 00:38:40.023
a desire for that to grow

00:38:40.204 --> 00:38:41.565
even more into like a

00:38:41.646 --> 00:38:43.447
longer format or do you

00:38:43.487 --> 00:38:46.192
want to just stick with what you have?

00:38:46.512 --> 00:38:47.914
Um, I'm trying.

00:38:49.501 --> 00:38:51.983
I'm trying to keep those

00:38:52.123 --> 00:38:54.525
updates completely unbiased, right?

00:38:54.567 --> 00:38:55.887
Like just give people

00:38:55.987 --> 00:38:56.949
everything that's out there.

00:38:57.489 --> 00:38:59.210
Like whether or not I agree

00:38:59.231 --> 00:39:00.331
with the content or not,

00:39:00.512 --> 00:39:01.632
I'm still consuming it.

00:39:01.893 --> 00:39:02.793
Like there's definitely some

00:39:02.813 --> 00:39:03.715
people out there I don't

00:39:03.775 --> 00:39:04.715
enjoy listening to,

00:39:04.775 --> 00:39:06.097
but I'm going to consume it anyway.

00:39:06.516 --> 00:39:08.159
Just because I feel like for me to have,

00:39:08.679 --> 00:39:09.420
to be able to give that

00:39:09.440 --> 00:39:10.119
back to the people,

00:39:10.139 --> 00:39:10.740
you have to give them

00:39:10.800 --> 00:39:11.882
everything so they can see

00:39:11.922 --> 00:39:13.123
from every side of it.

00:39:13.809 --> 00:39:16.690
Um, so there,

00:39:16.809 --> 00:39:18.351
there might be a space where

00:39:18.791 --> 00:39:22.853
I would make videos, you know,

00:39:22.873 --> 00:39:25.233
with more of like my, my side of thing,

00:39:25.273 --> 00:39:26.735
my input on certain things.

00:39:26.775 --> 00:39:28.454
But right now I feel like

00:39:29.135 --> 00:39:30.536
Hiller does a really good job.

00:39:30.635 --> 00:39:33.657
He's a big personality in the space.

00:39:33.737 --> 00:39:34.518
And, um,

00:39:36.661 --> 00:39:36.880
Yeah,

00:39:37.041 --> 00:39:39.722
so I don't see myself going full-on

00:39:39.762 --> 00:39:41.744
YouTube video personality

00:39:42.284 --> 00:39:43.003
and that sort of thing.

00:39:43.063 --> 00:39:44.744
I really enjoy doing the updates,

00:39:44.784 --> 00:39:45.184
honestly.

00:39:47.172 --> 00:39:47.914
Okay.

00:39:48.014 --> 00:39:48.494
Yeah.

00:39:48.753 --> 00:39:49.293
Uh, cause I could,

00:39:49.855 --> 00:39:51.135
the way you're inserting

00:39:51.195 --> 00:39:53.197
some editorial stuff, I could see you.

00:39:54.077 --> 00:39:54.237
Well,

00:39:54.277 --> 00:39:56.998
I feel very strongly about the PFAA

00:39:57.018 --> 00:39:57.340
stuff.

00:39:57.420 --> 00:39:58.701
And so, and I'll just be,

00:39:58.740 --> 00:39:59.400
I don't know if that's what

00:39:59.420 --> 00:40:01.882
you're speaking on, but the, um,

00:40:02.382 --> 00:40:02.943
in particular,

00:40:03.003 --> 00:40:04.623
John Woolley had made like an,

00:40:04.824 --> 00:40:05.664
he was doing like a news

00:40:05.744 --> 00:40:07.286
update video that I've

00:40:07.326 --> 00:40:08.387
never seen him do before.

00:40:08.407 --> 00:40:09.367
And I was like, Oh, okay.

00:40:09.947 --> 00:40:11.409
Somebody else had a good idea.

00:40:11.509 --> 00:40:11.708
Yeah.

00:40:13.083 --> 00:40:14.244
And it was like five minutes long,

00:40:14.284 --> 00:40:15.083
but it was just like,

00:40:15.603 --> 00:40:16.543
here's what's going on in

00:40:16.563 --> 00:40:17.784
the last week kind of thing

00:40:17.824 --> 00:40:18.965
and talked about this and

00:40:19.005 --> 00:40:20.085
talked about that and then

00:40:20.744 --> 00:40:22.846
entered some stuff with the PFAA.

00:40:22.905 --> 00:40:24.726
And I was just kind of like, oh, well,

00:40:24.766 --> 00:40:25.027
all right.

00:40:25.067 --> 00:40:25.586
But we kind of,

00:40:25.606 --> 00:40:26.887
we're leaving some things out.

00:40:27.166 --> 00:40:27.947
And I feel like if you're

00:40:27.987 --> 00:40:28.788
leaving things out,

00:40:28.827 --> 00:40:29.788
then you're kind of leaving

00:40:29.847 --> 00:40:30.768
that open for

00:40:30.829 --> 00:40:33.548
interpretation or maybe just

00:40:33.588 --> 00:40:35.329
trying to push like a

00:40:35.429 --> 00:40:37.090
certain narrative that you

00:40:37.130 --> 00:40:38.110
want people to hear,

00:40:38.351 --> 00:40:39.411
which it's his platform.

00:40:39.431 --> 00:40:40.610
He can do whatever he wants.

00:40:40.650 --> 00:40:41.952
But I just wanted to

00:40:43.447 --> 00:40:45.047
kind of add on that and I

00:40:45.068 --> 00:40:46.128
was in my car that day and

00:40:46.148 --> 00:40:47.128
I'd been sitting in traffic

00:40:47.168 --> 00:40:48.590
for like an hour and a half

00:40:48.710 --> 00:40:50.431
and I was just listening to

00:40:50.472 --> 00:40:51.331
this and I was just like

00:40:51.351 --> 00:40:53.032
well wait a minute let's

00:40:53.853 --> 00:40:55.014
because he specifically

00:40:55.074 --> 00:40:56.554
like addresses a specific

00:40:56.615 --> 00:40:57.655
question and I was like

00:40:57.675 --> 00:40:58.297
well you didn't really

00:40:58.536 --> 00:41:01.699
answer that question and so

00:41:01.798 --> 00:41:03.960
yeah that might that there

00:41:04.079 --> 00:41:04.820
there's probably going to

00:41:04.840 --> 00:41:06.021
be those times that's just

00:41:06.081 --> 00:41:08.563
me you might get a random

00:41:08.603 --> 00:41:09.443
video where I'm just gonna

00:41:09.463 --> 00:41:10.204
be like wait a minute I

00:41:10.224 --> 00:41:10.925
don't agree with that

00:41:11.940 --> 00:41:12.920
But I'm trying to just give

00:41:12.940 --> 00:41:14.701
the people the updates,

00:41:14.760 --> 00:41:15.681
where to find the stuff,

00:41:16.121 --> 00:41:17.981
and then they can decide for themselves.

00:41:19.043 --> 00:41:19.143
Yeah,

00:41:19.163 --> 00:41:25.965
the PFAA is a... So I have very

00:41:25.985 --> 00:41:28.045
strong feelings about the PFAA.

00:41:28.106 --> 00:41:28.226
Yeah.

00:41:28.246 --> 00:41:29.867
And whenever I remark about it,

00:41:30.047 --> 00:41:31.027
I get the strongest

00:41:31.067 --> 00:41:32.608
comments back that I ever get.

00:41:33.516 --> 00:41:34.876
which it just blows my mind

00:41:35.438 --> 00:41:36.057
that there's this

00:41:36.137 --> 00:41:38.019
organization and that's the

00:41:38.059 --> 00:41:39.661
thing that's triggering everybody.

00:41:39.681 --> 00:41:40.342
Everybody.

00:41:40.722 --> 00:41:41.382
Yeah.

00:41:41.422 --> 00:41:42.204
Like why?

00:41:42.224 --> 00:41:43.284
Yeah.

00:41:43.324 --> 00:41:43.864
Like I,

00:41:43.885 --> 00:41:45.085
you can't say anything bad about

00:41:45.126 --> 00:41:46.807
Brent or Pat or you're going to,

00:41:46.827 --> 00:41:48.108
you're going to hear my wrath.

00:41:48.128 --> 00:41:52.072
Yeah.

00:41:52.152 --> 00:41:54.155
And I love, I love Pat.

00:41:54.255 --> 00:41:56.036
I've always like, he's my number one,

00:41:56.076 --> 00:41:57.557
like this last year at the games.

00:41:58.378 --> 00:41:58.478
Um,

00:41:59.777 --> 00:42:01.599
They had a, um,

00:42:01.619 --> 00:42:02.478
it was like a fan favorite

00:42:02.518 --> 00:42:03.559
vote that they were doing.

00:42:04.478 --> 00:42:07.159
And, um, I'm always voting for Pat.

00:42:07.179 --> 00:42:08.240
Like he's always been one of

00:42:08.260 --> 00:42:09.641
my favorite male athletes

00:42:09.900 --> 00:42:10.981
to follow in the sport.

00:42:11.782 --> 00:42:12.601
Um, but yeah,

00:42:12.641 --> 00:42:13.541
there's definitely some

00:42:13.561 --> 00:42:15.003
things I didn't agree with

00:42:15.063 --> 00:42:16.123
in some of those videos.

00:42:16.222 --> 00:42:18.324
And I don't think that it's

00:42:18.483 --> 00:42:19.643
a bad thing for people to

00:42:19.664 --> 00:42:21.045
be talking about that, honestly.

00:42:21.065 --> 00:42:22.184
Like, I think it's a good thing.

00:42:22.204 --> 00:42:22.724
There should,

00:42:22.784 --> 00:42:24.126
we should all be able to have

00:42:24.146 --> 00:42:25.326
those open conversations.

00:42:26.858 --> 00:42:28.079
That's been my answer to the

00:42:28.159 --> 00:42:29.539
people who are coming after me is,

00:42:29.940 --> 00:42:31.059
this is an open platform.

00:42:31.300 --> 00:42:32.400
I never say you can't

00:42:32.440 --> 00:42:33.342
express your opinion.

00:42:34.641 --> 00:42:35.762
I can express mine and you

00:42:35.782 --> 00:42:36.802
can come back with yours

00:42:36.822 --> 00:42:38.324
and I'll even put it up on the screen.

00:42:39.644 --> 00:42:40.626
And we can talk about it,

00:42:40.666 --> 00:42:42.927
but to just shut it all

00:42:42.967 --> 00:42:43.827
down and say you're

00:42:43.907 --> 00:42:45.148
unsubscribing and doing

00:42:45.188 --> 00:42:49.070
whatever because I blasted the PFAA,

00:42:49.289 --> 00:42:51.030
it's kind of ridiculous.

00:42:51.431 --> 00:42:52.052
Yeah.

00:42:52.092 --> 00:42:53.371
And nobody's... I don't feel

00:42:53.391 --> 00:42:54.333
like anyone's really...

00:42:54.909 --> 00:42:56.449
blasting them or bashing them.

00:42:56.809 --> 00:42:58.711
It's just, we, we,

00:42:59.052 --> 00:43:00.793
we don't necessarily agree

00:43:01.072 --> 00:43:01.853
with everything,

00:43:02.213 --> 00:43:04.115
which they've even said themselves,

00:43:04.135 --> 00:43:05.135
like not everyone's going

00:43:05.155 --> 00:43:05.697
to agree with you.

00:43:05.737 --> 00:43:06.737
Not everyone's going to like

00:43:06.757 --> 00:43:07.538
your decisions,

00:43:07.597 --> 00:43:10.500
but it's okay for in this

00:43:10.539 --> 00:43:11.740
space to have opposing

00:43:11.880 --> 00:43:13.001
opinions on these things.

00:43:13.161 --> 00:43:14.402
And so, yeah, the people who are like, oh,

00:43:14.422 --> 00:43:15.764
I'm just not going to follow you anymore.

00:43:15.884 --> 00:43:17.344
Or, you know,

00:43:17.505 --> 00:43:18.865
you're a bad person because

00:43:18.925 --> 00:43:21.387
you think this or that, or yeah, that,

00:43:22.606 --> 00:43:23.947
I think it has to be tied

00:43:23.987 --> 00:43:26.548
with Castro because they want him gone.

00:43:26.628 --> 00:43:28.130
And if you are saying

00:43:28.170 --> 00:43:29.351
something bad about the PFA,

00:43:29.371 --> 00:43:30.853
you must be supporting Castro.

00:43:33.335 --> 00:43:35.797
And I think that's truly the trigger.

00:43:35.916 --> 00:43:37.018
Yeah.

00:43:37.057 --> 00:43:37.217
Yeah,

00:43:37.277 --> 00:43:38.619
there's definitely people who have

00:43:38.679 --> 00:43:39.639
drawn line in the sand.

00:43:40.940 --> 00:43:42.402
If you want it this way, then...

00:43:43.438 --> 00:43:44.579
I don't want anything to do with you.

00:43:44.800 --> 00:43:46.240
And I just think that's ridiculous.

00:43:47.282 --> 00:43:48.322
Yeah.

00:43:48.342 --> 00:43:49.364
My whole beef is like,

00:43:49.704 --> 00:43:51.505
how is the PFA just by default?

00:43:51.605 --> 00:43:51.844
The,

00:43:52.346 --> 00:43:53.746
the people who get to represent the

00:43:53.786 --> 00:43:55.387
athletes because they're

00:43:55.407 --> 00:43:57.309
not really representing all the athletes.

00:43:57.349 --> 00:43:58.110
Yeah.

00:43:58.349 --> 00:43:58.951
Select few.

00:43:58.971 --> 00:44:00.050
They've decided that they're

00:44:00.070 --> 00:44:00.652
going to cover.

00:44:00.672 --> 00:44:00.751
Yeah.

00:44:02.413 --> 00:44:02.672
Well,

00:44:02.693 --> 00:44:03.693
I want to know more about that

00:44:03.733 --> 00:44:04.394
process too.

00:44:04.474 --> 00:44:05.695
Cause I don't think that's been said.

00:44:05.735 --> 00:44:07.376
Like we know that the

00:44:07.396 --> 00:44:09.518
criteria is to be a voting member,

00:44:09.559 --> 00:44:11.039
but what's the criteria to

00:44:11.079 --> 00:44:12.681
be voted in as a board member?

00:44:13.646 --> 00:44:15.367
because it's kind of all over the place.

00:44:15.427 --> 00:44:17.329
I think I posted in the

00:44:17.369 --> 00:44:18.510
comments of that one video

00:44:18.550 --> 00:44:20.972
to John Woolley, like, well,

00:44:21.052 --> 00:44:22.313
this is all their names.

00:44:22.333 --> 00:44:23.474
These are all their stats.

00:44:23.514 --> 00:44:24.335
Some people haven't even

00:44:24.375 --> 00:44:27.217
been to a games that are on this board.

00:44:27.257 --> 00:44:27.817
Like how,

00:44:27.958 --> 00:44:29.239
how are we determining who we're

00:44:29.259 --> 00:44:29.838
voting for?

00:44:30.039 --> 00:44:31.099
Are we just picking anyone

00:44:31.119 --> 00:44:31.820
from the region that's

00:44:31.860 --> 00:44:33.402
willing to volunteer and just being like,

00:44:33.891 --> 00:44:34.751
Oh, you got my vote.

00:44:35.692 --> 00:44:37.813
Or how does that work?

00:44:38.014 --> 00:44:39.335
How do you get elected to a

00:44:39.394 --> 00:44:42.257
board with absolute voting

00:44:42.336 --> 00:44:45.340
rights when you're not even

00:44:45.380 --> 00:44:48.322
a voting member of the body?

00:44:48.422 --> 00:44:48.661
Yeah.

00:44:49.143 --> 00:44:50.724
Like that doesn't even make sense.

00:44:51.063 --> 00:44:51.643
It is wild.

00:44:52.105 --> 00:44:53.045
I would be curious to know

00:44:53.085 --> 00:44:53.646
more about that.

00:44:55.123 --> 00:44:55.623
Yeah,

00:44:55.643 --> 00:44:57.284
and the fact that the only vote that

00:44:57.324 --> 00:44:59.184
the body gets is who's on the board.

00:44:59.625 --> 00:44:59.885
Right.

00:45:00.125 --> 00:45:00.764
Supposedly.

00:45:01.244 --> 00:45:01.485
Yeah.

00:45:01.646 --> 00:45:02.585
And then after that,

00:45:02.806 --> 00:45:03.626
all the other votes are

00:45:03.666 --> 00:45:04.586
done by the board.

00:45:04.786 --> 00:45:05.126
Right.

00:45:05.847 --> 00:45:07.807
They have like what monthly

00:45:08.467 --> 00:45:10.409
calls where they will invite the members,

00:45:10.469 --> 00:45:10.849
I think,

00:45:10.889 --> 00:45:12.489
and then they'll have discussions.

00:45:12.630 --> 00:45:15.090
And I know they've said one

00:45:15.110 --> 00:45:16.351
of their last discussions

00:45:16.391 --> 00:45:18.092
that it wasn't even a

00:45:18.132 --> 00:45:19.713
majority that agreed with

00:45:19.753 --> 00:45:20.713
them on certain things.

00:45:20.733 --> 00:45:21.454
So it's like, well,

00:45:21.474 --> 00:45:22.574
that's also concerning.

00:45:25.367 --> 00:45:27.128
But yeah, I find it.

00:45:27.148 --> 00:45:28.228
We could have a separate show on that.

00:45:28.268 --> 00:45:28.427
Yeah,

00:45:28.467 --> 00:45:29.927
we could probably go into a lot of

00:45:29.947 --> 00:45:30.568
that for sure.

00:45:34.230 --> 00:45:38.010
So as you have dove into doing this,

00:45:39.471 --> 00:45:40.692
has it become something

00:45:40.751 --> 00:45:41.751
you've really started to

00:45:41.811 --> 00:45:44.413
love and enjoy doing?

00:45:45.362 --> 00:45:46.302
Yeah, absolutely.

00:45:46.684 --> 00:45:47.043
I love it.

00:45:47.143 --> 00:45:48.266
I love, like,

00:45:48.565 --> 00:45:49.547
if I'm not talking about

00:45:49.588 --> 00:45:50.389
CrossFit in a day,

00:45:50.429 --> 00:45:51.230
something's wrong with me.

00:45:51.670 --> 00:45:53.072
Like, I'm always talking about it.

00:45:53.432 --> 00:45:55.074
I come home and, you know,

00:45:55.355 --> 00:45:56.657
my spouse and I will talk about it.

00:45:56.677 --> 00:45:57.577
I'm talking about it with my

00:45:57.637 --> 00:45:58.780
friends at the gym.

00:45:59.260 --> 00:45:59.601
You know,

00:46:00.302 --> 00:46:01.463
most of my friends are people

00:46:01.483 --> 00:46:02.284
that go to the gym.

00:46:03.702 --> 00:46:06.003
Um, so that also helps my closest friends.

00:46:06.802 --> 00:46:09.284
Um, so yeah, like I, I love all of it.

00:46:09.583 --> 00:46:10.644
I'm consuming all of it.

00:46:10.684 --> 00:46:11.344
I'm watching all of it.

00:46:11.364 --> 00:46:12.264
I'm talking about all of it.

00:46:12.324 --> 00:46:12.405
I've,

00:46:12.664 --> 00:46:15.505
I've followed it for so long and

00:46:15.565 --> 00:46:18.947
through its entire evolution and it's,

00:46:19.108 --> 00:46:20.108
it becomes a part of your

00:46:20.148 --> 00:46:21.467
life when you've been doing it for.

00:46:21.909 --> 00:46:22.688
Fourteen years.

00:46:22.748 --> 00:46:23.349
It's like,

00:46:23.369 --> 00:46:24.849
how can you not care about those

00:46:24.869 --> 00:46:25.989
things and how can you not

00:46:26.170 --> 00:46:28.690
love it and want to be, you know, I,

00:46:28.751 --> 00:46:30.351
I tell everybody like I'm a lifer.

00:46:30.492 --> 00:46:31.711
I could never see myself.

00:46:32.365 --> 00:46:33.686
doing anything else and not

00:46:33.706 --> 00:46:37.347
being a part of this community.

00:46:37.407 --> 00:46:40.547
So what do you see in the future?

00:46:40.588 --> 00:46:42.588
Just continue doing this or

00:46:44.548 --> 00:46:46.050
maybe dabbling in some

00:46:46.090 --> 00:46:46.949
other areas to see what

00:46:47.010 --> 00:46:48.190
else you might like to put out?

00:46:49.210 --> 00:46:49.670
Yeah,

00:46:50.251 --> 00:46:51.510
I'm enjoying doing this right now and

00:46:51.550 --> 00:46:52.751
kind of seeing where that goes.

00:46:52.831 --> 00:46:54.492
And yeah,

00:46:54.532 --> 00:46:56.572
if other opportunities come up or

00:46:56.652 --> 00:46:58.193
other ideas come to me, then

00:46:59.621 --> 00:47:00.961
Yeah, I'm going to explore them.

00:47:01.322 --> 00:47:02.443
I'm just kind of enjoying

00:47:02.483 --> 00:47:03.563
doing this right now and

00:47:03.762 --> 00:47:07.304
seeing where that goes.

00:47:08.005 --> 00:47:09.545
Might start making some other videos.

00:47:09.605 --> 00:47:10.306
I don't know.

00:47:10.646 --> 00:47:11.106
Right now,

00:47:12.186 --> 00:47:14.367
my goal is just continuing to do

00:47:14.407 --> 00:47:15.527
the dense updates and kind

00:47:15.547 --> 00:47:17.668
of grow that part of it and

00:47:17.688 --> 00:47:18.708
then see what happens from

00:47:18.728 --> 00:47:20.469
there for sure.

00:47:22.706 --> 00:47:25.226
if people want to sign up and, and,

00:47:25.646 --> 00:47:27.668
and follow you on Instagram,

00:47:27.688 --> 00:47:28.568
they can do that by going

00:47:28.588 --> 00:47:30.809
to at dense underscore updates.

00:47:32.710 --> 00:47:33.791
That's me.

00:47:33.871 --> 00:47:35.231
And hit that follow button

00:47:35.371 --> 00:47:36.432
so that you get all the

00:47:36.472 --> 00:47:38.233
updates of what's going on.

00:47:38.434 --> 00:47:39.954
And I do appreciate the fact

00:47:39.994 --> 00:47:41.494
that you do give a very

00:47:41.614 --> 00:47:43.155
unbiased opinion about,

00:47:44.076 --> 00:47:45.697
and you include all the shows.

00:47:47.637 --> 00:47:49.918
So if you don't know what to

00:47:49.958 --> 00:47:50.860
tune into next,

00:47:51.760 --> 00:47:54.362
go to dense updates and listen.

00:47:54.643 --> 00:47:55.664
And Jenny will tell you

00:47:56.085 --> 00:47:57.346
what's going on in each show.

00:47:57.646 --> 00:47:58.447
She doesn't tell you which

00:47:58.507 --> 00:47:59.268
one to go watch.

00:47:59.608 --> 00:48:00.728
She just says, Hey,

00:48:00.768 --> 00:48:04.032
this happens on this show and that show.

00:48:04.092 --> 00:48:05.434
And you can go check all that out.

00:48:05.454 --> 00:48:08.036
That's right.

00:48:08.096 --> 00:48:08.876
Anything you want to tell

00:48:08.896 --> 00:48:10.117
the listeners before we let

00:48:10.137 --> 00:48:10.838
you go for the day?

00:48:12.019 --> 00:48:12.300
No.

00:48:13.661 --> 00:48:14.342
I have one other question.

00:48:14.362 --> 00:48:15.884
What do you do for a job?

00:48:17.143 --> 00:48:19.003
So right now I do like

00:48:19.023 --> 00:48:20.023
bookkeeping and accounting.

00:48:21.025 --> 00:48:22.125
I was working for,

00:48:23.005 --> 00:48:24.326
I was working full time for

00:48:24.786 --> 00:48:26.407
a roofing company here in Houston.

00:48:27.887 --> 00:48:30.507
And literally the day we

00:48:30.547 --> 00:48:32.969
came back from the games, he was like,

00:48:33.009 --> 00:48:34.829
we are shutting down operations.

00:48:34.849 --> 00:48:35.550
I was like,

00:48:36.195 --> 00:48:39.338
Ooh, that was kind of a weekend.

00:48:39.418 --> 00:48:40.579
I really didn't mean that on

00:48:40.599 --> 00:48:42.380
a Monday morning, but okay.

00:48:42.920 --> 00:48:43.860
So I've just kind of been

00:48:43.880 --> 00:48:46.242
helping him close things

00:48:46.282 --> 00:48:47.543
down and get his books all

00:48:47.583 --> 00:48:48.824
together and things like that.

00:48:48.885 --> 00:48:50.806
And been doing some,

00:48:50.827 --> 00:48:51.927
some contract work on the

00:48:51.967 --> 00:48:53.108
side at home for right now.

00:48:53.148 --> 00:48:54.449
And that's kind of what's

00:48:54.489 --> 00:48:55.690
freed up my time to be able

00:48:55.731 --> 00:48:56.632
to make a little bit more

00:48:56.652 --> 00:48:57.333
of these videos.

00:48:57.413 --> 00:49:00.655
So yeah,

00:49:00.695 --> 00:49:01.815
I'm probably going to stay on that path.

00:49:01.856 --> 00:49:02.157
I can't,

00:49:02.916 --> 00:49:04.438
I can't see myself going back to a

00:49:04.498 --> 00:49:05.018
traditional,

00:49:06.201 --> 00:49:08.501
nine to five and working for the man.

00:49:08.561 --> 00:49:09.262
So.

00:49:11.543 --> 00:49:11.923
Yeah.

00:49:11.983 --> 00:49:12.063
Yeah.

00:49:12.083 --> 00:49:13.525
I didn't have to work for the man anymore.

00:49:13.585 --> 00:49:14.945
I would love to just talk to

00:49:14.965 --> 00:49:15.686
people like this.

00:49:16.606 --> 00:49:16.865
Yeah.

00:49:17.206 --> 00:49:17.565
Right.

00:49:18.286 --> 00:49:19.067
It'd be nice.

00:49:19.947 --> 00:49:21.288
But someone's got to keep

00:49:21.307 --> 00:49:22.369
the lights on in the house.

00:49:22.748 --> 00:49:23.568
That's very true.

00:49:24.150 --> 00:49:25.449
And the internet flowing or

00:49:25.489 --> 00:49:26.391
we couldn't even do this.

00:49:26.471 --> 00:49:27.331
So that is true.

00:49:27.530 --> 00:49:29.331
I mean, if I have to all work three jobs,

00:49:29.391 --> 00:49:30.932
I don't care, but yeah,

00:49:31.472 --> 00:49:33.114
I'm fortunate enough right now to,

00:49:33.751 --> 00:49:34.932
To be able to take a little

00:49:34.952 --> 00:49:36.094
bit of time for myself and

00:49:36.134 --> 00:49:38.996
just figure out, yeah, what I want to do.

00:49:39.697 --> 00:49:42.440
I'm forty four and so I'll be forty four.

00:49:43.780 --> 00:49:44.922
And I've had a lot of just

00:49:45.001 --> 00:49:47.123
bouncing around careers over the years.

00:49:47.184 --> 00:49:48.644
And it's like, man,

00:49:48.664 --> 00:49:49.626
I just want to find one

00:49:49.646 --> 00:49:50.626
thing that sticks.

00:49:51.327 --> 00:49:53.429
But trade work is I've worked for a lot.

00:49:53.469 --> 00:49:54.911
I've worked for a plumbing company.

00:49:55.599 --> 00:49:57.579
a roofing company, um,

00:49:57.619 --> 00:49:58.940
and then a custom home builder, just,

00:49:59.280 --> 00:50:00.501
you know, accounting and all that stuff.

00:50:00.541 --> 00:50:01.820
And COVID was,

00:50:02.240 --> 00:50:03.661
was a bad time for everybody.

00:50:03.822 --> 00:50:06.222
And roofing is wildly

00:50:06.262 --> 00:50:07.422
competitive here in Houston.

00:50:07.481 --> 00:50:08.943
So unfortunately that didn't

00:50:08.963 --> 00:50:10.722
work out either.

00:50:10.782 --> 00:50:11.543
Yeah.

00:50:11.563 --> 00:50:12.322
Is what it is.

00:50:12.603 --> 00:50:13.284
You know,

00:50:13.304 --> 00:50:14.884
I didn't find the thing I loved

00:50:14.943 --> 00:50:18.085
in my life, which is doing this at

00:50:20.740 --> 00:50:20.860
Um,

00:50:21.320 --> 00:50:23.702
and then I dove in head first and my

00:50:23.742 --> 00:50:25.123
wife is probably like,

00:50:26.443 --> 00:50:31.786
I'm glad you found it.

00:50:31.806 --> 00:50:33.106
Work on balance a little bit,

00:50:33.226 --> 00:50:36.708
but we're getting there.

00:50:36.768 --> 00:50:38.007
Well, Jenny, this has been a blast.

00:50:38.407 --> 00:50:40.329
Um, and, um,

00:50:41.842 --> 00:50:43.264
I'm going to keep you in my

00:50:43.324 --> 00:50:45.166
contacts to have you back

00:50:45.186 --> 00:50:46.847
because I'm sure there are

00:50:46.887 --> 00:50:48.427
subjects we can talk about that,

00:50:49.528 --> 00:50:51.150
like we just talked a little PFAA,

00:50:51.190 --> 00:50:51.951
and I think that could have

00:50:51.971 --> 00:50:52.972
went on for a good hour.

00:50:53.472 --> 00:50:54.172
Yeah, awesome.

00:50:54.472 --> 00:50:55.074
I'd love that.

00:50:55.373 --> 00:50:56.514
I'd love to be on with Jamie.

00:50:56.655 --> 00:50:57.074
I love her.

00:50:57.175 --> 00:50:57.735
I follow her.

00:50:57.896 --> 00:50:58.777
She's super awesome.

00:50:59.237 --> 00:50:59.556
Fittest

00:51:03.842 --> 00:51:05.023
Yeah, I wish she believed that.

00:51:05.704 --> 00:51:06.963
Everybody around her believes it.

00:51:07.023 --> 00:51:08.543
I wish she believed it.

00:51:08.583 --> 00:51:10.625
I feel like that's such a

00:51:11.065 --> 00:51:14.106
common thing for some Masters athletes.

00:51:14.806 --> 00:51:15.365
My best friend,

00:51:15.385 --> 00:51:16.565
she's a little bit older in

00:51:16.585 --> 00:51:18.487
the fifty to fifty four.

00:51:18.626 --> 00:51:19.967
And I'm like, girl,

00:51:20.007 --> 00:51:21.168
you're going to the games next year.

00:51:21.327 --> 00:51:22.947
And she's like, nah.

00:51:23.108 --> 00:51:25.148
And I'm like, hmm.

00:51:25.228 --> 00:51:25.489
Yeah.

00:51:26.048 --> 00:51:26.268
Yeah.

00:51:26.809 --> 00:51:27.909
We have to convince them

00:51:27.949 --> 00:51:29.289
that they are as good as they are.

00:51:30.110 --> 00:51:30.251
Yeah.

00:51:30.550 --> 00:51:32.552
What I love about masters is, you know,

00:51:32.572 --> 00:51:33.634
here comes Jamie off the

00:51:33.653 --> 00:51:35.375
games and now her son's in

00:51:35.394 --> 00:51:36.576
his senior year of school.

00:51:36.956 --> 00:51:38.637
And then that becomes a priority, right?

00:51:38.657 --> 00:51:40.239
She can't like an elite

00:51:40.278 --> 00:51:41.820
athlete just gets to keep training.

00:51:42.942 --> 00:51:43.121
Nope.

00:51:43.222 --> 00:51:43.842
She's got a,

00:51:44.563 --> 00:51:45.684
her son's senior year is

00:51:45.724 --> 00:51:46.704
what's most important.

00:51:46.804 --> 00:51:48.385
And so that takes the front

00:51:48.405 --> 00:51:49.027
seat right now.

00:51:49.547 --> 00:51:49.806
Yeah.

00:51:50.067 --> 00:51:51.688
Your kids, your family, your jobs,

00:51:51.748 --> 00:51:52.489
all those things.

00:51:53.050 --> 00:51:54.050
A lot of those athletes

00:51:54.090 --> 00:51:58.134
don't have sponsors and all that stuff.

00:51:58.153 --> 00:51:59.034
So yeah, definitely harder on them.

00:51:59.590 --> 00:52:00.471
And speaking of Masters

00:52:00.530 --> 00:52:01.771
athletes to cross promote,

00:52:01.831 --> 00:52:03.132
in about eight minutes,

00:52:04.213 --> 00:52:05.713
the episode three of Behind

00:52:05.733 --> 00:52:06.572
the Scenes at the Masters

00:52:06.612 --> 00:52:07.594
CrossFit Games comes out.

00:52:07.653 --> 00:52:07.893
Oh, yeah.

00:52:07.914 --> 00:52:08.934
I've got my notification on.

00:52:09.193 --> 00:52:10.054
I'll be watching that.

00:52:10.554 --> 00:52:13.436
So you check into that.

00:52:13.576 --> 00:52:14.896
It's twenty five minutes today.

00:52:15.916 --> 00:52:16.657
So not too long.

00:52:16.697 --> 00:52:17.597
Pretty digestible.

00:52:18.797 --> 00:52:19.978
And I hope you enjoy that.

00:52:20.018 --> 00:52:20.677
With that, Jenny,

00:52:20.737 --> 00:52:21.938
thank you so much for doing this.

00:52:21.958 --> 00:52:22.018
Yes.

00:52:22.039 --> 00:52:22.699
Thank you so much.

00:52:22.719 --> 00:52:23.318
I appreciate it.

00:52:23.659 --> 00:52:24.778
Have a great rest of your day.

00:52:25.159 --> 00:52:25.579
Yes, sir.

00:52:25.599 --> 00:52:25.960
You too.

00:52:26.500 --> 00:52:27.559
We'll see everybody next time.

00:52:27.940 --> 00:52:28.360
Bye, guys.

00:52:28.661 --> 00:52:28.860
Bye.
