But really liking the direction that we're going in and looking forward to serving a lot of clients coming on board. Yeah, man, you know, it's that's the thing. Like, it's just such a to me, you know, ah like a lot i don't know how much people know about me, but i literally work every single day of the week, at least a few hours, you know, at least three, four hours.
00:01:13
Speaker
Sunday, Saturday, it doesn't even matter. And to me, it's not even work. It's just i wake up in the morning I'm im so grateful to god for like pushing me enough giving me enough challenges where i had to figure this out and start making this my you know my my just my day job and my mission you know think that wakes me gets me going in the morning definitely got to have that motivator um especially you know like
00:01:48
Speaker
you'll You'll be wanting to lay in bed, sit in bed, but if there's something that jazzes you up about the day, then you'll just jump out of bed and you you forget to brush your teeth, you forget to shower, you forget to even eat breakfast. You're just ready to start getting after it.
00:02:04
Speaker
Luckily, i don't forget to shower for too long because my wife reminds me. It's like, dude, you got to shower. that was my That was my wife the other day. i got in bed after a long day and she's like, you're all sticky. You need to get the shower.
00:02:18
Speaker
You're sticky. You're sticky and gross. I was like, oh, oh shit. Whoops. Yeah, I forgot it's summertime, I'm sweating more here. oh but So, um we, but just for the listener, we met, so just it's a cool story actually.
00:02:36
Speaker
So, ah a couple of years ago, I was blasting people's mailboxes left, right and center to talk about in on my work, my book, my stuff, just kind of reaching out to people and One of the places I emailed was the Live Free Academy, which is where you were working last.
00:02:55
Speaker
And just months went by. i had completely even forgotten I had emailed y'all you responded back to me. And I think you said something like oh, dude, I heard you on on Charlie and this other podcast. You're a badass.
00:03:11
Speaker
I'm like, oh, shit, that's so cool. ah This guy sounds really cool. So I responded back to you. And I think like a couple months went by and you didn't respond. So I'm like, oh, this is never going to happen. um I got my hopes up again for nothing.
00:03:25
Speaker
And I emailed again just for why not, you know, and you, you got back to me and then we had you on the podcast. And, know, after that I started working with your, she she wasn't your wife at the time. Elizabeth, you guys got married recently.
00:03:41
Speaker
we started working with her. So, It just developed into a friendship that, you know, I think, I guess from the the the first moment we kind of interacted with you, knew was something about you, man. And I know I said it before, but I knew there something about you, like so some sort of spark there that you don't see that in everybody. You know, like this little bit I call it get up and go, bit of get up and go, kind of a bit of,
00:04:09
Speaker
a bit of moxie. I like these guys moxie, you know, so really, really just a crazy turn of events that we even became friends, you know? Yeah, absolutely, man. I still remember that day when, uh, when you emailed in because I had listened to that Charlie podcast and you were talking about all these things like children's health. I think at the time you were talking about your autism book and, uh,
00:04:35
Speaker
And, you know, obviously, like some of the more sensitive subjects around children's health, like vaccines and stuff like that. And you were like, not shy to talk about that. And I was like, damn, dude, this guy's spitting.
00:04:48
Speaker
And then when you emailed in, I was like, no way. I just listened to this podcast. It was a very it was a very like. godly timed thing divine timing yeah yeah divine timing the way that it all happened so yeah man um and then and then you got back to me because we were super busy just like we here just like we are here at the live longer formula at live free academy we are super small team so attention runs very thin when there's so many projects to do and there's not very much people to pass off busy work too so you gotta kind of do it yourself
00:05:24
Speaker
So lost track with Christian. Thankfully, he's a he's a good businessman. And he reached back out and he's like, hey, don't forget about me. I was like, oh, shit. Sorry, bro.
00:05:35
Speaker
We're definitely going to have you on the podcast. And then we went on Christian's podcast. And it was ah it was the start of a a very fruitful friendship. I think that was back maybe like early 2023 or something like that. It's been a couple years now.
00:05:51
Speaker
Yeah, i think so. It's hard to keep track because there's so much going on. But yeah, um then you you held the health summit. I think that was maybe end of maybe last year. Was that end of last year?
00:06:05
Speaker
Yeah, that well, that was actually the end of 2023 when we held that and in December at Live Free Academy. But that was kind of the culmination of...
00:06:17
Speaker
Over a decade's worth of research into various health topics, I interviewed 31 natural health practitioners. um Well, I guess one of them was ah was a near-death experience researcher, but I thought it was important that we're going to be discussing all of this kind of health stuff.
00:06:35
Speaker
We should have like, well... what what are we getting healthy for? Like, what are we actually doing here on earth? And so I thought we'd have one person talking about the afterlife, um, you know, at the health summit, but, you know, just talked with, uh, some, some fun guys like Zuby and JP Spear, JP Sears, um, and then talked with some real down to earth health practitioners like Christian and, and some other folks.
00:07:04
Speaker
Um, and, Yeah, man, that that that was an absolutely awesome experience. It was also, you know, in preparation for the health summit, I wanted to be more of a ah the health authority for people to take me as ah as a health expert more seriously.
00:07:20
Speaker
i ended up ah working with a high-level coach. His name's Tanner Shuck. Um, ended up losing like 30 pounds, got abs for the first time in my life. First time in my life I've ever had abs.
00:07:32
Speaker
I've always been a bigger guy. um yeah so working with Tanner cut down, got abs was like pretty jacked. Um, considering like,
00:07:43
Speaker
how my body has been for the rest of my life. Um, but yeah, jacked abs health summit. Funny enough, the health summit is where I picked up like this little nicotine habit just because I was running myself ragged.
00:07:57
Speaker
And like, I'm sure like Christian could go into this for days, but, um, you know, I was eating maybe 1900 calories a day um maybe 100 grams of carbs uh out of those 1900 calories and you know i was just like exhausted i'd have to do like three or four interviews a day for the health summit to get it ready in time for when we went live with the summit because it was all recorded and then you know people could just watch at their leisure when when the summit was launched
00:08:30
Speaker
So did a lot of recording for the interviews and then a lot of researching and note taking for future interviews. Not to mention i was also organizing um all of the editors. I'd have to you know direct them for editing all of the the interviews to get those ready for the summit and also the website design and then have to coordinate with affiliates to promote the summit so people would show up to this thing that i was building it was such a massive undertaking and all of this on like 1900 calories and i'm going to the gym every day at six in the morning and i'm doing 10 000 steps every day
00:09:12
Speaker
I mean, I was probably like running my adrenals into the ground. And the only thing that kept me like sane and sharp was nicotine. So I picked up like a little nicotine habit along the way.
00:09:28
Speaker
But patches or what what kind? yeah i mean it started out with zins because it's like uh these little pouches that you put in and so my buddy in uh in chicago i was visiting for thanksgiving ah before the health summit and he gave me a zen nicotine pouch and so i i put it in and i was like like I just felt like this explosion in my mind. And um they say that nicotine is really good for cognition. So like I definitely felt that right away.
00:10:02
Speaker
And so when I got back, you know, I was grinding away at the health summit for a couple of weeks. And then I'm just like, wait, what if I, what if I just get some Zin? So like, I remember how I felt when, when me and Mitch were hanging out, like how sharp I was, I'm like, maybe that'll help. So like I would put a Zin in before, know,
00:10:19
Speaker
before every interview and I just like crank it out. But then what I learned with Zins is that they have all of these artificial ah sweeteners and all of these other chemical compounds that are terrible for you and your gut.
00:10:35
Speaker
So I switched over to like a ah more healthy brand, more simple ingredients. But then um I was telling Christian about the ingredients the other day. And he's like, dude, magnesium stearate, that's no good. He's like, just ask Tim James.
00:10:51
Speaker
i was like, oh, damn. So then I did some research on magnesium stearate. And the only thing that I can... kind of come up with is that it inhibits nutrient absorption when the concentration is above 1% in whatever supplement or food that it's included in.
00:11:11
Speaker
To be honest, I actually don't think magnesium stearate is that bad because magnesium, we know magnesium is magnesium. And stearate is basically like stearic acid.
00:11:24
Speaker
It's just a satur type of saturated fatty acid. I forgot, maybe 18 carbon chain stearic acid. So I don't necessarily think it's like, yeah, it's an 18 carbon chain fatty acid, saturated fatty acid.
00:11:40
Speaker
I don't think it's that bad. But yeah, like here's the thing though. That's why it's so hard to quit cigarettes. It's not really, i don't think it's the habit necessarily of, you know, ingesting toxic freaking, you know, fumes into your lungs.
00:11:56
Speaker
It's the fact, I remember because I smoked cigarettes basically since the age of like 16, 17 until about, guess, 30, 31, even when I completely quit.
00:12:07
Speaker
um But it was so hard to and I've tried to quit so many times as any ex-smoker knows. But the first week, dude, I felt like I couldn't string a sentence together.
00:12:20
Speaker
wow he smoke you have a smoke and just whatever that you know nicotine has sort these nootropic effects and you you feel like wow and um it's it's like the whole coffee and cigarette thing you get the caffeine boosting you get the nicotine boost so that's why people like that ah my phone's ringing one sec Dude, and that's that's what they say. And it's so true. Like one of my favorite things is in the morning, you know you crack open the laptop, you're getting after some emails, your he you have your coffee, you have your nicotine.
00:12:56
Speaker
And it's just like, it is one of the best things in the world. um is Clearly you haven't tried crack.
00:13:06
Speaker
You clearly have not tried crack, my friend. It's true. It's true. Maybe a little coffee and crack in the morning with some emails. Then then we're talking. But, you know, like for like I'm saying, I mean, for me, it's organic coffee, high altitude coffee, grown in shade, mold free.
00:13:26
Speaker
And then the nicotine that I'm using is super, super clean. Just five ingredients. um And magnesium stearate is the worst ingredient. So um yeah far cry from like Newports and Folgers.
00:13:41
Speaker
Oh, yeah, yeah. and You know, it's interesting. A lot of clients have been asking me about nicotine recently. um i actually, I've been interesting. I have a few tabs open on some nicotine products I'm about to like order. I've been meaning to...
00:13:59
Speaker
to rekindle my experiment with nicotine. But at one point, a couple of years back, i was doing the, you ever hear of hape? Yeah.
00:14:10
Speaker
Yeah. the The one there you kind of, you blow it up your nose. Yeah. Yeah. Or someone can blow it up your nose with a, I think it's called a. Yeah. I did that in, but in Morelia for the greater reset. My friend yeah Vanessa, she blew it up my nose and it was like my brain exploded.
00:14:27
Speaker
Dude, it's good. It's pretty cool. Yeah, so i was doing, it but the the thing with me is like, because and I've talked about this at length, well, maybe not at length, but I have a very, at least before, used to have a very addictive personality.
00:14:42
Speaker
So I would buy the Hapay from, was made in the Amazon store, by the shamans like the guys that are in there uh in holland but they would support the you know the the families there so you knew the name of the shaman that made your happy the village they tell you the story the ingredients and all sort of thing but dude i'd buy like a bunch of these and like at one point i'd find myself i was using it like six eight times a day ten times oh my gosh i could like it have like
00:15:14
Speaker
have like i put my finger up my nose. It'd be all ash. The lumps. No, dude. At one point, it was just like blood and and obviously ash and like stuff. um So yeah, i was like at one point, I ran out. I'm like, you know andm I'm just not going to buy because I can't. like It's like with alcohol, when i used to like drink, and if we never would have alcohol in the house because we wouldn't have alcohol in the house if we had alcohol in the house.
00:15:42
Speaker
You know what mean? It would just be gone. It would just be gone, dude. Like, sooner or later. So, but yeah, yeah. I think nicotine, that the whole whole thing, it's it's it's I saw a funny meme a while back where they were saying tobacco is so good for you that they had to pump it with 600 different chemicals to make it toxic.
00:16:06
Speaker
And even then, most smokers that smoke don't actually get lung cancer. you know not recommending smoking or tobacco, but they do call it in kind of the the more you know sort of Peru the Amazonia.
00:16:22
Speaker
They call tobacco the grandfather of the plant, like the one that they use it to so to cleanse and purify and send prayers to the heavens with tobacco.
00:16:34
Speaker
So there's got to be something to it, you know. Yeah, maybe so. um i definitely thought that for a long time. Although ah recently i watched a video by Father Peter Hears. He's an Orthodox priest and he was going over St. John Kronstant, who was a contemporary Russian saint um in the Orthodox Church. And he said that even even smoking cigarettes, he he was a former cigarette smoker as a priest.
00:17:05
Speaker
And he gave it up because he could realize the temptation. But in in orthodoxy, it's all about asceticism and resisting the pleasures of life. yeah So I did that during Great Lent. I gave up ah caffeine, nicotine.
00:17:21
Speaker
um I mean, I was eating one meal a day and it was maybe like twelve hundred calories. um But, you know, obviously, like I knew that I wasn't doing it for a health thing.
00:17:32
Speaker
um It was more for like the ascetic Lenten lifestyle. um but But I did realize after like three two, three weeks of not having coffee or nicotine, I felt like my cognition was even better than when I had both.
00:17:52
Speaker
Yeah. Yeah. There's something to be said for purifying the body in in various ways for sure. Right. So, I mean, do you drink coffee every day or ah caffeine?
00:18:06
Speaker
i do I do take caffeine almost every day, yeah, yeah. But not necessarily from coffee. Sometimes i actually get these um caffeine pills with – they're just caffeine, anhydrous, and just cellulose. So pretty clean, you know.
00:18:24
Speaker
So, i love it. I'm sorry. i went to a homeopath up here in the in the mountains. um And this dude, he was like 80 years old. His skin was perfect. Like this dude was glowing, right?
00:18:38
Speaker
Super healthy guy. So he does this bioresonance thing where he has this machine. And, you know, you hold... the oh yeah so you hold a ah metal rod that connects to the machine and then he takes your one of your fingernails and he presses the other sort of electrode whatever to it and the machine goes no and then he basically he's so good And this this whole science is like kind of like applied kinesiology slash there's a thing called autonomic response testing that I did a course in earlier this year by Dr. Klinghart.
00:19:16
Speaker
But basically, the autonomic nervous system ah gives feedback when... when you know, challenged by, it and it could be literally holding up something to a person and it could be a food, a supplement, a herb, herb, whatever.
00:19:32
Speaker
And anyway, so but this guy was so advanced. He had his home ah homeopathy lab there and everything. He was so advanced, he would, in his mind ask the question and based on your response he would use the machine to tell you so he tested me a bunch for bunch of stuff he knew i had metal in my teeth and like i was exposed to lot of emfs in my work here in my office that's after that i kind of i got a really much better emf tester and i really kind of figured out where the emfs are coming because you know what you have a lot of like cables together even though i don't have wi-fi
00:20:04
Speaker
the cables of things plugged in, they kind of create fields that accumulate and stuff. so But anyway, um hes hes he's not a big fan of coffee, and he tested me for coffee, and he couldn't believe it. He tested multiple times. It's like, but it's not doing you harm.
00:20:21
Speaker
you know It's not like causing you issues. And that's when I realized I shouldn't feel guilty for drinking coffee because certain things – are work well with certain people and certain things don't. and you know it's it's ah Sometimes you know, like some guys do really well with weed and they have a great sort of relationship, quote-unquote, with the plant.
00:20:45
Speaker
Not everybody, some people go freaking psychotic. Some get paranoid, they can't sleep, they get anxious. So if if something is working well for you and you do feel it's working well, like genuinely in your in your heart you feel it,
00:20:59
Speaker
I think it's okay to to do it even if it's crack. Just kidding. That's beef for me. For me, like I feel like, dude, I could eat... Like my wife, she she can eat beef like...
00:21:14
Speaker
very like sparingly she likes variety for me i could eat beef for every meal and be so it's like i'm like a dog when you put like the same kibble you've been putting in the bowl for like 10 years for every meal but then the dog scarves it down licking its chops like it's just eating it for the first time that's me with beef dude same same dude every time i have some beef i'm just like wow that is the best beef i've ever had my life i say that every time i eat it yeah uh so i think that that is like one of the things that resonates with me the highest but just just like a little comment about the weed thing um yeah it's definitely not totally innocuous my buddy
00:21:57
Speaker
but but I mean, maybe in like super small concentrations, it could be totally innocuous, but um my buddy, he, he had a buddy that was a big weed smoker and he kept, you know, chasing the next high, but like with weed, you know, you build up your tolerance.
00:22:15
Speaker
So then he buys some like uh, that is, you know, 35% THC. t h c I guess that's a super high concentration.
00:22:26
Speaker
And then he's like takes a fat rip of this wax and it sends him into a paranoid psychosis that he's still not out of over a year later.
00:22:37
Speaker
He's lost his job. His wife has left him and whoa took took custody of his kid. He lost everything because of you know, chasing that next high with weed.
00:22:50
Speaker
And then he got paranoid psychosis. Dude. Yeah. I can help him with that. Oh yeah. Yeah. I know exactly what he needs to do to, to, to get out of that.
00:23:04
Speaker
You should, you should, um, you should connect this. I actually had the, uh, one, one, uh, one, uh, client we were working with earlier this year. he had He had similar stuff going on with, with you know, he he basically was smoking weed for like, don't know, like 10, a decade or more every single day. he had really gone more than a day without it.
00:23:30
Speaker
And after working together, He emailed me, um you know, like I forgot how ah how long after, but he hadn't smoked at all since that last time I gave him some things that... because And we but we also did a neurotransmitter test.
00:23:47
Speaker
And ah there was definitely some neurotransmitter imbalances that are very much correlated with things like, you know, paranoia, anxiety, anxiety. ah It can go all the way to like psychosis, that side of that side of the most extreme side of spectrum. so But it's actually not that difficult to knock a person out of that.
00:24:08
Speaker
The worst thing for me is that like when you know you're around a pothead, like they kind of sound like this or like, dude, have you ever even thought about like, what if the universe like just created itself or like, you know, something, something like that. And then I'm just like, oh dude, get out. Like they're not even high, but they sound high.
00:24:29
Speaker
yeah um That kind of thing. i just can't stand. I can't stand being around someone who sounds like that. So yeah let's talk about, more about you just so you know listeners and I know we're going to have clients tuning into the podcast as well so just to know more about you let's talk about so you were You were, dude, you were captain of your state championship football team and you had a scholarship, a football scholarship for college. That's huge, right?
00:25:01
Speaker
So, yeah, it's kind of funny the way that it all unfolded. um So like like also like wrapping in my health journey because, you know, we're a health focused company. We like to help people with their health.
00:25:18
Speaker
um It kind of all started like in middle school when my doctor grabbed my stomach and he's like, you got to lose this because like I said, like I was a I was a bigger kid and my doctor was like 80 years old, old school, like there's no filter.
00:25:36
Speaker
Um, so he just grabbed my stomach and was like, you got to lose this. This isn't healthy for a boy your age. I was like, Oh damn. Okay. Dr. Miller.
00:25:47
Speaker
Um, ah so, ah then i started like doing, started getting into dieting, like just kind of like watching my calories. I would eat like 2000 calories a day, like in middle school because I wanted to lose the stomach and I lost like 17 pounds or so.
00:26:06
Speaker
Just like watching calories, that kind of thing. And then um another thing that I was doing was exercising a lot, but that was in the form of like sneaking out of my parents' house and like running around. and one thing that we would do was called car hopping.
00:26:23
Speaker
we would check people's car door handles. And if they were unlocked, we'd go in take change. If they had some dollar bills. I remember one time i took like happy, a happy Gilmore DVD out of somebody's car. Yeah.
00:26:38
Speaker
ah sort of all That is a classic. I want to watch Happy Gilmore tonight. Long story short, we end up getting caught. but I didn't get caught directly.
00:26:54
Speaker
Two of my buddies got caught that I was out with that night. um They were eighth graders. They snitched. They snitched hard. I, uh, I ended up getting brought in to the police station.
00:27:08
Speaker
Um, and then we went, we went to juvie for one night. They knew because we hadn't stolen much. I think we had stolen like maybe $18 and change. And they're like, okay. 16 DVDs. And yeah one, one, like, uh, and then one dumb, dumb or something, you know?
00:27:28
Speaker
Yeah. Um, so yeah, man, uh, They put us in juvie for one night and like half of the next day. And then they released us to our parents and we had like three months house arrest.
00:27:41
Speaker
And the the worst thing about all of that was, well, I guess number one, my parents like seeing them in the courtroom. I mean, that, that blue, yeah,
00:27:52
Speaker
the The thing that was the worst about it was like football was my passion. That was like my whole life. Like I was really good in middle school. um Some people had some high hopes for me when I was going to high school.
00:28:08
Speaker
And then that happened and I got banned or I ah ah was allowed to practice, but I wasn't allowed to play. football for the entire season.
00:28:20
Speaker
So I was allowed to go to the practices and kind of like be on the scout team, which was like an insult to me because I was like, dude, I'm, I don't belong on the scout team. But anyway, I was on the scout team, wasn't allowed to play at all.
00:28:34
Speaker
Wasn't even allowed to go to the games. Um, and yeah, man, miss missed a whole year of freshman football. And then, um,
00:28:46
Speaker
The very next year, you know that band was over. i was allowed to play. um End up getting moved up to varsity as a sophomore. and And then the the very next year, junior year, i ah for whatever reason, today they sat me for the first two weeks.
00:29:06
Speaker
And I was like, dude, I'm supposed to be the starter. like why I didn't even play the first two games. Then the third game they put me in, i i ah I made five tackles for a loss in like the first ah five plays that I was in. like I just went absolutely nuts against our biggest rivals in the conference.
00:29:27
Speaker
It's like the biggest rivalry in the area, Batavia versus Geneva. and I just went absolutely wild in that game. and then Ever since that happened, I won a Defensive Player of the Week for the conference.
00:29:40
Speaker
And they made me a starter from there on out. Like I, they're like, okay, well, what were you thinking? So then I started the rest of that year. wound up going nine and O and then we lost the first week in the playoffs, which really sucked.
00:29:55
Speaker
Um, But, you know, I thought to myself, again, like going back to the health thing, after my junior year, I thought I never want to experience that again.
00:30:06
Speaker
Going 9-0 during the regular season, everybody thinks we're going to state. um We're one of the best teams in the state. And then we lose first week to someone who barely made the playoffs because they ran this triple option.
00:30:20
Speaker
And we had a tough time defending the option. It's just like ah kind of a hard thing to, to defend. And, you know, each man has their key. Someone's got the quarterback, someone's got the fullback, somebody's got the running back.
00:30:33
Speaker
And if you lose one of those, yeah I mean, they can just take it all the way to the house. If someone isn't playing like fundamental football. So, um i i told myself i never wanted to experience that again so i swore off any drinking anything for the entire off season and i was just going to focus on getting a strong fit and ah you know being an example for the rest of my teammates because i wanted to be a captain and uh i end up
00:31:04
Speaker
you know, benching three 15, you know at 17 years old. yeah Now I think about it, I'm like, I can't even touch close to three 15. Um, nor do I really like want to do that kind of weight anymore.
00:31:18
Speaker
uh, I was benching three 15 squatting four 50, deadlifting 500 Um, she stupid thats I know 17 years old, but I mean like, you know, I'm eating everything that I can. i after football practice, I used to come home, drink half a gallon of milk, eat a quarter of a watermelon. You know, one of those big like GMO watermelons, like massive watermelons.
00:31:45
Speaker
I'd eat like a quarter, a quarter watermelon. And I'd eat nine hard boiled eggs, nine hard boiled eggs, half a gallon of milk and a quarter of a huge watermelon.
00:31:56
Speaker
That was my post. Your cholesterol. i know, man. Dude, i was ah I was something else. And then so I end up getting up to like 240 pounds.
00:32:10
Speaker
And ah but like I was a total beast in the weight room. And then we had the this night where it's like the captains are supposed to be selected for the next year.
00:32:21
Speaker
And so, you know, it's a voting process. And a bunch of my teammates had told me, dude, we voted for you. You're going to be captain tonight. You're going to be up on the stage. you're going to be captain. And then I'm sitting there and they call up Micah. You know, he's he's the quarterback. Of course, he's going captain. They call up Skacia.
00:32:40
Speaker
he's He was our running back. That was his last name. Of course. Who named these children? yeah well like i said that was sequoia yeah ive got ah toyota there was uh running river jeez actually we did have a forest uh forest was named captain um and then uh and then rorke like Like what kind of a crazy ass neighborhood? i know. I know. ah
00:33:11
Speaker
So, ah but so they all four were named captain and then they're like, okay, we're gonna, that's all we're going to announce for now.
00:33:22
Speaker
we' so We still have a couple captain spots open. It'll be up to anybody who who wants them. And I was devastated. i was like, dude, everybody had told me I was going to be a captain.
00:33:36
Speaker
I went the entire offseason, busted my ass, didn't have one drop of alcohol, not a single beer. um And, you know, some people would be like, well, yeah, you were in high school. It's like, okay, come on, get over it. Like we, we would all get together for house parties or whatever. i wasn't even going to the house parties.
00:33:53
Speaker
And I was the one that usually threw them at my parents' house when they would leave for their motorcycle trips. Sorry, mom. But, uh, Uh, so yeah, I didn't go to any house parties, didn't have any alcohol, like just kept it on the up and up.
00:34:08
Speaker
And then I didn't get elected captain when so many people had told me that they voted for me. A lot of people were very confused. They came up after me, after the ceremony to me and told me like, wow, dude, I don't, we, we all voted for you. I don't know what happened there.
00:34:24
Speaker
And so yeah, I, I, what did I do? Like, I i could have made a couple of decisions there, right? I could have sulked thrown in the towel, screw it. This is rigged because all of the guys who were made captains, they were all like either buddy, buddy with the head coach or like we're influential in the community.
00:34:44
Speaker
It seemed like a politics thing. And me, like I was, this you don't sound like you're bitter about it still. Right.
00:34:52
Speaker
No, I'm just saying like when i was finally elected a captain, which I and that's what I was saying is, you know I had a couple of choices. I could have just like thrown in the towel and said, this is this is rigged. Like some people were telling me that it was and that, you know, my parents just weren't influential enough in the community or close enough or had given enough to the school or whatever it was.
00:35:18
Speaker
And, you know, I could have just quit right then and there or like quit like working as hard or I could double down. And that's exactly what I did. i I was going to five workouts a week, which there there were only like three official ones.
00:35:35
Speaker
But I was going on the days that people um that that other sports were working out, too. And then also on Saturdays, they would have makeup workouts for the guys who were in like track or something like that.
00:35:48
Speaker
I would go there those too. So I was working out six days a week. um and going to all of the training sessions, doing everything that I possibly could, like listening to mindset stuff.
00:36:01
Speaker
And i was just, I was not going to be denied. I was going be undeniable by anybody that, that even was abreast of the football team at Batavia high school.
00:36:12
Speaker
They were going to know that Ryan Manetti deserved to be a captain. And that was my mindset. And ah the first day of football camp in the summer, um At the end of practice, Coach Piran, our head coach of the football team, was like, we want to announce a new captain, Ryan Manitti. And I was like, fuck yeah, dude. Finally, finally, like I get the credit that I deserve.
00:36:39
Speaker
At the age of 18, after all these weeks, weeks and weeks of things I've been doing. Dude, it was crazy.
00:36:51
Speaker
it was It was from October two June that that I had been grinding in away at this singular thing that was in my mind. and i I had finally gotten it. It felt like it felt so damn good. It it really did.
00:37:08
Speaker
And especially like, don't forget freshman year. I was the black sheep. I was the outcast. I was, you know, the fuck up who, who got ah arrested and and banned from the football team freshman year.
00:37:22
Speaker
And then senior year I'm captain. Like it was, it was, uh, don't know. It's one of, one of my favorite stories about my life. Um, and it's something that I always look back at fondly because sometimes I struggled to find the motivation with various things.
00:37:40
Speaker
And I'm just like, dude, if I could, if I could tap back into what I know is inside of me, when I just went buck wild on a singular goal for, uh,
00:37:52
Speaker
you know to be To be a captain for for the high school football team, like that's what I wanted more than anything else in the world. I just like kind of rekindled that energy. And then yeah that's what got me through Great Lent and the grace of God, grace of God being number one, and then my motivation.
00:38:08
Speaker
being second, um, as, as well as other various projects that I've been motivated to, to work on. But, uh, so yeah, it became a captain then, um, the, the second week of the season,
00:38:25
Speaker
we lost and we were expecting to go undefeated again and had all of these lofty expectations. And, ah we lost to, uh, Oaklawn Richards in the second week by five points or six points, something like that.
00:38:43
Speaker
And then, we end up winning the rest of the games for the rest of the season go all the way to state and who do we face oak lawn richards in state and then we're just like oh no way dude because we had been watching them like oh surely they're gonna lose to them they wait like what they beat them it's like okay well they're gonna lose to them whoa they beat their ass and then It was just like one week after another. It's like, oh my gosh, are we going to face Oak Lawn and state?
00:39:15
Speaker
And then sure enough, they win their game. I think they won like 14 to seven or something like that. Like barely one. We played Rockford Boylan and we whooped their ass 38 to six.
00:39:26
Speaker
So there was no like doubt about it that we were going to state. Um, um, And then in-state, we ended up beating the team the only team that beat us all season.
00:39:39
Speaker
We beat them 35 to 14, like utter ass whooping. We just laid the smack down on their ass. And then, you know, all the captains got to go up on stage and were awarded medals and everything. So I got to do that.
00:39:54
Speaker
And then all all of the captains of the football team got to go to the Packers and Bears game ah later that month and be honored on stage. at or not at the middle of the field during halftime of the bears Packers game.
00:40:11
Speaker
So we did that. And then that game is is one of my, one of my favorite games of all time, probably because I was there, but that game um for, for anybody that knows anything about football, that was the game where Randall Cobb,
00:40:26
Speaker
It was the last play of the game. It was like fourth and a mile, like maybe like fourth and 15. And Aaron Rodgers hikes the ball. Immediately, Julius Peppers is screaming off the edge about the sack. Aaron Rodgers.
00:40:37
Speaker
Aaron Rodgers does this incredible move, spins away from Julius Peppers. Randall Cobb is wide open. at at the at the end of the field, and he just launches it.
00:40:49
Speaker
He just launches it. You don't even see where the ball went. It was so high. And you just look at the end of the field. Randall Cobb is wide open by 20 yards. There's nobody there.
00:41:00
Speaker
He catches the ball and like basically walks into the end zone. And the place was going nuts because then I think the Packers needed to win that game to be able to get into the playoffs.
00:41:13
Speaker
And And it was Soldier Field, you know their sworn enemy, the biggest rivalry in football, Packers-Bears. And then the Packers win on basically last-second Hail Mary.
00:41:24
Speaker
It was awesome. And we were only there because we won state. so and And I got to meet some Packers players on the field as well so because the Packers are my favorite team.
00:41:35
Speaker
So that that was an incredible experience. But the thing that I liked to drive across was that I had one goal in my mind and I did everything that I could possible within my power because ah you know they they didn't elect me captain first the the first time around.
00:41:54
Speaker
But I still, I was going to be undeniable and I was going to do everything in my power to be able to achieve that goal. So that's why I like to say to To anybody who might be listening, you might be like, oh, well, my boss, you know, he's got it in for me or, you know, he likes these other people better because they're more buddy buddy or they golf together or whatever it is.
00:42:15
Speaker
You got to be undeniable. Maybe your numbers have been slacking. um Make your numbers so incredible, so undeniable that you deserve that promotion or you deserve that raise or whatever it is.
00:42:29
Speaker
but Be so good they can't ignore you. Right. That's exactly it sure, man. So sorry to go on that on that terribly long rant.
00:42:39
Speaker
It's as if Grant Cardone possessed you or something.
00:42:46
Speaker
ah love hey oh I love it, man. But you see, this is this is why... is what I said earlier, you know, when i I saw you, I could feel this sort of energy that sort of ah you transmit, you know, when you're getting into something, you're getting fired These are the kind of people that change things, change the world, change the community.
00:43:11
Speaker
change something, you know, and this is the kind of people i want on the team because we need to bring that sort of energy to the, to the problem we're trying to be a part of the solution of, which is, you know, a pretty significant problem out there.
00:43:28
Speaker
A lot of people are not thriving. a lot of people are living as a shadow of their true self. So we can't, you know, we can't waddle our way out of this problem. We need like a real serious push.
00:43:43
Speaker
need to have a lot of energy behind that push for it to, you know, to be meaningful. So that's why that's, that I love this. And again, just to kind of echo what you said, you know,
00:43:55
Speaker
I've had a lot of challenges in my life as well. And I think big problem for me was I was a smart kid. like i could do I could do math in my head. ah kids like two My cousins were two, three years older.
00:44:09
Speaker
They're doing stuff on their fingers. I could do that in my in my head at the age of six. and But you see, everyone was telling me, Christian, you're so smart. Look at you, you're so smart. And then all through primary school, coasted, never had to study, aced everything.
00:44:25
Speaker
High school, it got a bit tougher, but I still didn't study, but I still stopped at the class. Then I got into college and smack. Okay, first year, i aced it. I had the highest score ever for the Java programming exam ever in that college.
00:44:41
Speaker
And I took that exam. hungover. i had ah big old spliff and a Red Bull. That was my breakfast. And I went in high as a kite, son. caffeinated to the gills. Waked and baked.
00:44:56
Speaker
And I did 97% on the Java programming exam, dude. And then the second year, when I actually got tough, the college, I dropped out because you just I hit ah i hit a wall.
00:45:06
Speaker
ah And I immediately, first semester into it, I knew there's no way in hell I can make up the the deficit in terms of my knowledge and ignorance that have allowed to so occur. you know You can't in a week cram that much stuff about all the programming. And to be honest, I never even liked the whole subject. I felt pressured to to to get into college to so I could leave Bulgaria you know and a very stressful home environment.
00:45:38
Speaker
um So I would do anything to get out of there, you know, and even even make the wrong choice. And that's why I kind of ah dropped out of college because I wasn't into it. I did i wanted to like learn business stuff. and Growing up, you you didn't like Bulgaria. you you You always knew you wanted to leave Bulgaria.
00:45:54
Speaker
ah Well... ah Like, ah we lived in South Africa for a few years. So we going back to Bulgaria in my kind of mid to late teens, that was jarring.
00:46:05
Speaker
But I was actually starting to enjoy Bulgaria because, like, dude, weed, drinking. You could go to clubs even though you're underage. um You know, like, girls and and just... I was actually starting to enjoy it.
00:46:19
Speaker
But, like, a couple of kids, dude, a couple of kids... that i grew up with from like one of them was from the same sort of block of flats like dude they were like in jail because they tried to knock over a freaking casino dude like a small casino not a big casino obviously they'd be dead but like the there was like kids 15 year old kids dude selling drugs like hard drugs amphetamines whatever so it was a really poor environment and i'm so glad you know my mother pushed for us to get the hell out of there go to college in Ireland because it would not have been like a good environment for me.
00:46:58
Speaker
Not that, you know, I did like amazing things for the next 10 years when I went to Ireland or anything, you know, but um it it was ah a heck of a lot of a more savory environment there.
00:47:09
Speaker
um But, you know, so the the the thing is like for me, i The arrogance of being smart and hitting that wall in in the in the kind of more grown-up world, that was a massive sort of ego, hit to my ego, which caused me to then, you know, struggle, struggle, until ah figured out that the the challenge It's like Hormozzi says, the work that you do works more on you than you work on it. you know So that my sort of biggest couple of challenges were when I was about to hit 30, training for the Thai boxing fight all year. That was a huge challenge physically.
00:47:51
Speaker
And then a couple of years later, you know writing my first book, that was like an eight-month sort of you know fucking journey to Mordor and back. The Autism Well-Being Plan?
00:48:02
Speaker
Yeah, yeah, I published that. I was just 33 at that point, just about hit 33, was going to hit 33 years of of of age. So it was like when I hit those sort of, went to those challenges, that's when I realized,
00:48:18
Speaker
pretty late not like you like when you were so you know barely you know an adult it took me a long time to figure it out but that's when I figured out that the there is a lot in there a lot of potential and the challenge isn't something to avoid it's something to to sort of use ah to to to you know as ah as a mechanism of growth in this life you know yeah getting very philosophical here
00:48:50
Speaker
But up just for the listener, we're going to have Ryan. My plan from next week is we're going to have at least one episode on the podcast, on the How to Actually Live Longer podcast with Ryan. We're going to just kind of talk, you know, health, longevity stuff.
00:49:08
Speaker
There's a lot of research and stuff we want to you know talk about. ah Some of it is going to be in my next book, How to Actually Live Longer, Volume 2. So I think it would be a great opportunity to kind of, you know, talk about some research. So you you get to, you know you know, learn a thing or two, God forbid. Nowadays, you're not even you know you was supposed to use the the L word because people shudder, but I know people listening here love learning. Oh, do your own research. Remember during COVID, that was like the, that was the naughty phrase. You're going to do your own research. Yeah. yeah
00:49:40
Speaker
But yeah, so we're going to, we're going to like ah have some pretty, some pretty cool research going to talk about. But also my goal for the the podcast to be a little bit more entertaining, less, less sort of, you know,
00:49:53
Speaker
clinical, all this research, this mechanism. I just want us to have a little bit of fun because what is the point of being healthy and vibrant and all this stuff that we're doing if we're not enjoying the whole process? You know, this is so important.
00:50:07
Speaker
You know, we have to just want to make the process of optimizing our health and all that stuff and learning all the scams in the health space. Let's make it a fun process so that, you know, it's a fun process, basically.
00:50:20
Speaker
Absolutely. Yeah. and you know, one thing that I'm hoping that we'll get into early on in terms of the research and whatever is something that you brought up the other day and something that I haven't stopped thinking about is ah the kind of endurance training scam.
00:50:35
Speaker
And like, what what's the threshold there? Because, you know, I brought up, I'm like, well, running a mile, you're like, well, and a mile is not endurance training. I'm like, for me, it is. to me For me, it's a potentially life-threatening.
00:50:53
Speaker
Right, man. So was like, okay, what what's the threshold for endurance training? When does it start to become like a hindrance on your health and help? Because you know it' at various points in my life, I felt like I need to get my endurance training back up. And during the health summit was one of those one of those times. And I started running like three miles twice a week.
00:51:17
Speaker
And I really felt like my my endurance was in a back in a great spot. So I'm just kind of curious, like, where where is it? ah What threshold is it helping? And then what threshold is it hurting? And maybe like the middle ground there, too. yeah that's that's something I'm interested to dig deeper on. Yeah.
00:51:36
Speaker
Yeah, it's such ah it's such an interesting area, and I have this such a bunch of um fascinating pieces of research. So there's stuff, ah that I think we can maybe even, know, we'll do this on the the Friday recording. There was um some stuff around... the even walking, dude, like with enough, enough walk, you think like walking can be bad, but even walking, if you were to walk enough in a given day, straight up becomes harmful, you know?
00:52:09
Speaker
So it's, it's pretty, some pretty cool, cool research we can discuss. Dude, I hope we get into that on Friday because, you know, that's a huge thing that's going on right now. Like this guy on, on Instagram, his name is Joey, Joey sorts.
00:52:24
Speaker
And he just did this whole thing. His big thing is like walking, you know, 10 or 15,000 steps every day. and then he was just like, hey, today we're going to do 100,000 steps, which he did.
00:52:37
Speaker
And I was like, okay, at that point, it's for sure like not a good thing for you. Yeah, man. it's It's, I don't know. I think for social, you have to do crazy stuff. There was one guy on YouTube.
00:52:49
Speaker
He just does the weirdest nonsense. He has millions of subscribers and he he he looks like a very cool guy. I forget his name now, but he's like, eat like 20, I don't know, 20,000 calories in a day. That's crazy stuff.
00:53:01
Speaker
Oh, yeah. You know, oh He tried all the most banned sports drinks. He this sports drink that was banned because people had like a heart attack.
00:53:15
Speaker
And he drank the damn thing. And then he'd go do a workout and explain, okay, so I feel like my brain is on fire. like i mean So this is the kind of stuff people click on, you know? So, yeah, dude, it's it's it's absolute.
00:53:28
Speaker
We've gone mega insane right now. And the for the kind of crowd that we are trying to help, you know, we want to really define what's what's too much. And it's a very variable thing for a person. What's too much? What's too much?
00:53:45
Speaker
50 minutes is too much period it's for a specific person what are sort of some guidelines and it's very simple ah obviously it's right the healthier you are the more punishment you can take right obviously the less healthy you are the less exertion you can sort of do before it becomes super detrimental but the thing is and I always try to sort of spin this to to clients if you are healthy and you can take a lot of punishment be that stress of from exercise or from work or not sleeping or traveling a lot whatever if you can take it
00:54:20
Speaker
And you know you can still function. Should you though? Should you do that? Just because you can do it. you know Just because you're 30 years old and you can... like what I was doing the Thai boxing training.
00:54:32
Speaker
We're training like some days twice a day. We're training in the morning, two hours, and at night... two two hours and at the same time full-time job and doing other courses and you know i was dating my what my wife at the time still and like i could do it because i had a lot of you know still resilience and vital reserve but um now that i think about it dude i was going gray i already had gray hair in my mid-20s you know So I could do a lot of stressful things, but the only sign of the stress at that time was gray hair.
00:55:09
Speaker
But if you extend this over ah much longer time period, like decades, 10, 20, 30 years into your 50s, 60s, like much more than just gray hair is going to start showing. You know, that's the thing people really need to understand.
00:55:24
Speaker
What are some of those other signs, like real quick? I mean, that's the thing. Like, and we're going to talk about this on, um, on the the the next show. but um I've got a little patch of gray hair like like right here. Whenever I go to the barber shop, the girl who ah who cuts my hair, she's always like,
00:55:43
Speaker
Oh, that patch seems to be getting a little bigger. And I'm just like, shut up. but so Stop talking about it. I'm surprised you're still going to her. you know i'm like hell get She does a good job. She cuts my hair the way that I want it to be cut.
00:55:56
Speaker
Yeah, that's that's pretty hard to find. um I'd be like, no tip for you again. ah Sorry. uh yeah dude like i'll just quick quick one i can maybe discuss this more in depth but i have one client he he's um he's know big big shot ceo runs multiple law firms um thousand acre property like real like He's doing real well in life and just for decades, his thing, he's like he's the boss, he can do whatever he wants. So his thing is he wakes up, he goes to the gym and he goes to work and he has his routine that that that's been working for him, you know.
00:56:39
Speaker
And just <unk>ve I've had a as a client for more than a year now. And every month or so, I'm like the the thing that that's elephant in the room, the exercise, the exercise, empty stomach, first thing in the morning, bad, bad, bad idea. And I keep trying to hammer it home.
00:56:59
Speaker
um But just it's just some people that just simply because and with him, it's a bit different because it's his wife that referred him to me. So he he wasn't like he didn't read my book. He didn't listen to the podcast.
00:57:12
Speaker
So he wasn't like indoctrinated as it were into my into my stuff. But he he liked me. I liked him. So we we did, we've done some really good work together. But there's certain things, certain folks simply we will not budge on if they if they're not fully into your stuff.
00:57:28
Speaker
And that's one thing I've not been able to actually convince him to stop doing is to like not have breakfast and go directly to the gym. And the thing is that last year, he did a coronary artery calcification scan, CIC, and he had coronary artery calcification.
00:57:46
Speaker
So he's like in his 60s. He feels great. He looks great. Looks like like he looks healthy, you know, from the outside. Well-functioning brain, ah ah you know, all that stuff, you know.
00:57:57
Speaker
um But, you know, under the surface, we know... that endurance exercise ages the cardiovascular system. ah Some of the the research is in animals, so I think we can we could maybe start, we have to like, it's a big topic, I'm gonna have a whole chapter on the book about it.
00:58:17
Speaker
So to do one chapter, there's actually a shitload of research that goes into just one chapter. So we could maybe even like look at one episode, we can look at the animal research and you know, okay, it's already some clues is something good or bad if the animal research is showing.
00:58:32
Speaker
But then we can look at the human research. We can look at endurance more specifically. We can look at women's stuff more specifically. I think it's important because a lot of guys, what we do is we start doing crazy shit.
00:58:45
Speaker
And then suddenly our wife is, you know, roped into it. When I was doing the keto, my wife was doing keto, bulletproof coffee. My wife was doing bulletproof coffee. We have breathing.
00:58:55
Speaker
Cold showers, she was doing that. And in hindsight, that was really dumb for me to rob Corinne. And the research clearly shows that, you know, exercise can be particularly detrimental for for women. So if we know that as as dudes, we can protect our women. Exercise.
00:59:16
Speaker
Too much exercise, yeah. Too much exercise. Yeah. Yeah, dude, we'll get into that. There's some some interesting stuff there. But it's pretty controversial because like if you listen to Dr. Peter Atiyah, literally he says, i believe that exercise is the most potent longevity drug. That's pretty much a verbatim quote.
00:59:38
Speaker
So it's like... e is it though, doctor? Is it? We'll see. Dr. Jack Cruz talks about, he's like, honestly, the people that I see living the longest are like these, ah like Orthodox Jews in,
00:59:56
Speaker
New York, and they've never exercised like a day in their life or like they don't go to the gym every single day. They're just like kind of, you know, like five, eight, 170 pounds.
01:00:09
Speaker
ah And they're just kind of like chill. they They do their job. They go home. They eat dinner with their family. um but they're not busting their ass at, at the gym every day. They're just kind of like living a very chill lifestyle. And they're the people that are living over a hundred consistently the longest.
01:00:29
Speaker
Yeah. Dude. And look at Kissinger. He lived a hundred years. Rockefeller lived a hundred and one, 102. Do they look like, do you think they're out there? wasn't going to the gym. No way.
01:00:42
Speaker
No way Kissinger was going to the gym. He lived 100 years. Rockefeller clearly like he wasn't exactly like, you know, he wasn't exactly jacked in Swalbraham Lincoln or anything like that.
01:00:55
Speaker
okay, like like there's other questions we could ask there. that's Let's keep it you know non-conspiratorial, etc. What were they doing? What were they supplementing their diet with? We don't, you know, whatever. Let's not say anything now because we have people that are not necessarily coming from that side of the... Yeah!
01:01:19
Speaker
the you know so but You know, but still the either they weren't exactly like in the gym. Because look look at it, like Jeff Bezos, he at one point he said, okay, look it, I'm going to stop being a Poindexter little know soy boy better cock.
01:01:36
Speaker
I'm going to get Soberham Lincoln. So he got on the roids, he got on the tea juice and he got swole, you know. And a lot of like entrepreneur guys at one point, they're like, you know, it's good. I'm just going to do this.
01:01:49
Speaker
And they can, they get a trainer, they get like a really, you know, their chef starts doing everything optimally. And that's all fine and dandy. You know, it it can be done.
01:02:00
Speaker
But... And I'm sure you can be pretty like you can exercise quite a lot and live a long time, you know. But it's not necessary. People, the ah yeah right now we have confounded health and fitness as being the same thing.
01:02:18
Speaker
But like if you look at podcast categories on ah whatever, Apple, the category that this podcast is in, the category is called health and fitness.
01:02:31
Speaker
It's not called health fitness. It's not one thing, you know? So um that's the thing. can be healthy without being very fit. You can be extremely fit and be very unhealthy.
01:02:44
Speaker
the the The thing is we have to find it like a Venn diagram. Where like can we do just enough exercise um exertion to maintain a certain level of strength, mobility, you know lower pain, reduced pain, um without stepping over into the threshold of actually causing ah stress and degeneration and oxidative stress and inflammation and damage to the tissues that cannot be repaired you know or is costing us too much ah in the in the grander scheme of things.
01:03:15
Speaker
Because that and do that, that's that's actually very easy to do. you know um Not to say you should be a sedentary, like the the problem is our sedentary life nowadays, yes, that is a massive problem.
01:03:28
Speaker
I'm not saying we should be sitting on the couch or the computer all day. And i i'm not saying that we don't have to exactly sniff in, you know, inhaling flame retardants and plasticizers at the computer.
01:03:50
Speaker
um Yeah, so anyway, we we basically started getting to the topic. But I think what we're going to do is let's wrap up today. This was just like a little introduction, introduce Ryan so people know who he is and stuff like that because you're going to be doing some of the metabolic function assessments coming up.
01:04:09
Speaker
you know So prospective clients, anyone interested in what we do, they might be talking to you. So this was a good way to kind of introduce to everybody and yeah any parting parting thoughts for today
01:05:09
Speaker
Yeah, yeah.
01:05:18
Speaker
Awesome stuff. Thanks, bro.
