She should know better. She's Just too much. Giselle is too much.  Although I like the way karen is looking this year. Um What is her name that's pregnant? Is she pregnant again? Has she been pregnant all this time? Monique y'all Monique Monique is one of those pregnant women who is absolutely I think she looks better when she's pregnant. Maybe it's because she has a little bit more weight on her She is absolutely breathtakingly beautiful I mean, I always thought she was a pretty woman, but she is beautiful with that belly and that extra weight She is stunning to me. Um Yeah, I just can't I don't know.

So this is what you all look like. I thought you were all taller. It's like the first time I met you, I wanted to be like first time listener, long time, or sorry, first time caller, long time listener. Do you get that a lot too? Get that a lot, walk down the street, people come up and say, long time listener, first time saying hello on the street? They think they're funny. I need more alcohol if I'm going to get berated for my bad dad jokes. I really wanted to ask, like, do you get recognized all the time?  Well, being on the radio at first for me was sort of the perfect level of fame, you know, because I could be anonymous and public if I wanted because people only knew my voice. But if I wanted to pull it out and use it, then I could say who I was and people might recognize who I was. These days, you know, because the internet has so many visuals, a lot of people who listen do also know my face. Well, I'm wondering if they would recognize you when you were, I imagine, a CBD oil salesperson. We have a picture of you when you were starting out. It's quite a Jew fro, I have to say. I'm very impressed. It's employee of the month I was outstanding in my field.


The Galaxy S20 Ultra is gonna be a beast of a gaming device. Now here's why. So Samsung has finally sent out invites for its unpacked events in San Francisco. Of course we'll be there. This we presume is for the Galaxy S20 line. Now you're wondering why the S20 and not the S11 because we had an S10 last year. Well simply because Samsung's decided it's a new decade so we're going to the 20s and also to showcase the jump this devices will have. Now in this video we'll be talking mostly about the Galaxy S20 Ultra. And the Ultra is kind of a different naming nomenclature compared to what we had last year. So for reference, the S10e will be the S20, the S10 will be the S20 plus and the S10 plus will be the S20 Ultra. And that's the device I want to focus on. The S20 Ultra looks like a behemoth of the device and it's got all locked packed into it. Now this dropped in earlier today from Max from XDA stating some things that he's found about this device. Says the S20 Ultra 5G, talking about the 5G variant will keep an SD card slot. So that's still coming back. That's actually good for a lot of people. And you will have variants in terms of storage from 128 to 512. And here's the kicker here. RAM going from 12 gigabytes to 16 gigabytes of RAM. That is a whole lot to play with. And you're thinking, well, not a lot of games might optimize this. Well, that may be true, but that means that your system should run really, really well. And that showcases the big jump we had from last year where 12 gigs of RAM was the maximum for the Galaxy Note 10 device. And this time we're going to 16 gigabytes of RAM. So you can do more with your gaming and you can actually basically run a very smooth system. Now a couple of other things to mention as well. The S20 Ultra will pack a 5,000 milliamp battery. That is the biggest size battery in a Galaxy S device we've ever had. And this will be coupled with the 45 watt charger. If you remember, we tested the charger or the 45 watt charger last year and we saw some really great results. And they're looking at zero to 100% in 74 minutes. Now, might not be as fast as what Oppo has thrown out there, but this is still pretty good. And I think I'm excited about this. Now, processing. This device will be powered by the Snapdragon 865 processor in some regions and the Exynos processor in others. But we do know what the Snapdragon 865 does. Now we got to do some gaming on the Snapdragon 865 and it showcases about a 35% jump in GPU, 25% in CPU performance, giving you better and smoother gameplay all around. So that is something to take note and I think is going to be very, very interesting with this device. You're gonna get a lot of game performance here. Plus the GPU drivers on the 865 will be updateable so you can actually get better performance as you move down the line. So think about games like PUBG, for instance, which optimization is always key. You can get this fully optimized on your Galaxy S20 Ultra and I think you're going to definitely love this. Now, another thing to note, of course, with this device is the fact that it comes with a 120 Hertz display. This will be the first Samsung device with a refresh rate higher than 60 Hertz and this is going to be really critical for your gameplay sessions. Imagine how good and remember how good the Galaxy S10 was last year. We did our gaming videos on there. This thing ran really smooth, really well but of course, having a higher refresh rate, again, matching what ASUS has with the ROG displays, this is something to note and you know Samsung's gonna make sure this is gonna be probably one of the brightest displays on the market so your gaming sessions are gonna be really, really good on the Galaxy S20 Ultra and you're gonna get some really, really good performance overall. Now, there'll also be some new camera elements to this device as well. We do know that the S20 Ultra will pack the 108 megapixel sensor from Samsung. We'll have a 48 megapixel sensor for the Ultra wide and we'll also have a periscopic and a time of flight sensor. There's a fit sensor, which we do not know about but I'm sure that will come into play as well. So it's gonna pack a lot of camera features which include 8K recording, which of course the Snapdragon A65 supports and from indications it's gonna be locked at 8K 30 frames per second. There's gonna be a directors mode, there are lots of new modes in the camera, I can't wait to try them out. I'm very excited to see what the Galaxy S20 Ultra brings to the table in terms of performance, gaming, battery life, heat temperatures, all that fun stuff and I'll be at the event of course on the 11th to capture content for you guys so let me know what games you'd like me to feature besides Call of Duty Mobile and of course PUBG. Now, wanna give a big shout out to Concept Creators, Ice Universe, OnLeaks as well as also Max from XDA for doing all the hard work for getting all this kind of information which I can share to you and giving my thoughts on the Galaxy S20 Ultra in terms of gaming and what it brings to the table. Thank you very much guys, don't forget to like, share, subscribe and always enjoy your entertainment.

Yeah Do you guys have any don't you guys have any friends that do?   There's value or anything. It's always mystifying So there's like a stock market for for paint for like, you know old-ass, you know million-dollar Multi-million-dollar paintings. They have like a becket or whatever. Yeah, and you can and you can buy shares It's called it's called.  Yeah, it's kind of cool like it's called masterworks I think masterworks is the name of it And it works like a stock market very similar and you can buy shares of of this like well You can actually have be partial owner of a thing. Yeah, that's worth millions of dollars And so it's there's like This stock market for paintings and in fact It continues to go it doesn't fall and they say one of the things that's great about is it's Safer bet than like the real The stock market. I don't know about that. What about if it gets burned? We're like, you know You know, I'm sure there's insurance anything with demand is going to have value, right? But you got to be careful like you guys ever heard of the tulip crash Back in I think it was in where was that? Doug Yeah, you hear about this where at one point they Tulips the value of tulips went through the roof for some reason And people were using him as currency and then the market got flooded with tulips and it crashed and people lost fortunes Did you ever hear about this? No, this is a real thing. They're trading tulips. Look it up, Doug Pull it up on it. That's so bizarre. Pull it up on the interwebs This is a little different because Picasso can't paint any more paintings. Yeah, that's true So it's going to continue to hold its value or go up in value. That's a lot different. You could keep growing Yeah, these so these owners that are just now like making it public so people could buy shares of it Or is this I'm not even fully aware of like exactly that's why I was curious if you guys had heard of it Because I was reading an article on it was the dutch tulip bulb market It was a bubble Dude, I mean, I feel like that's a little I mean, I'm listening, right? Yeah, it's like who's like, yeah, sounds like a good idea I mean that's well, here's you know speaking of weird Plant bubbles. I'm tripping out right now. Here's some marijuana news for you guys right now the marijuana market right now Is exploding right now and the prices are higher than when I entered it over 10 years ago. How's that possible? Right? So this is what happened.  I hate when people speculate I don't have time to read 400 speculations. I'm gonna counter in other words. Don't message So here's my theory on that and and I'm totally disconnect. So I've been recently I've been Talking to some good friends that are still in that space And uh, I always inquire. Hey, how things going what's going on with that because I feel like I Exited the market at the right time. Like I rode the wave Did well and then left and was over it But out of nowhere the prices for and the way you kind of tell like what's going on in the market is the price per pound Like what does it cost for a pound of exotic really good weed? And when I was leaving You could get the best stuff on the market. Um wholesale if you went directly to a farm or you could get it for 21 22, you know around there 100. Yeah, 2200 a pound now. Was that on the actual tax Market or was that off? Yeah, no, that's going directly to a farmer. Okay, that's going directly to a grower somebody who is growing hundreds of pounds A wholesale essentially. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. That's not most people aren't seeing that retail that's getting bumped But that's still Pretty low when I first entered it was like 3000 You know $3,000 for a pound and then people obviously take it to clubs and then they break it down and they sell it And then that pound ends up being worth 5500 or more right when it's broken down So anyways, it was that's where it started at about 3000 when I entered over 10 years ago And then on the way out it was down to like 2000 and 2200 a pound There's now stuff going for 3500 to 4 grand a pound wholesale. Same thing. Yes wholesale. Now, is it because Oh, so here. Sorry. I finished my theory. So my theory is that As I was going out it was becoming more and more legalized.  Okay. So that's yeah, I then what you're saying is probably it then Yeah, yeah, so when I when I was so I had I had outdoor it's like Kobe beef versus You know ground beef. Yeah, I had outdoor and indoor And my outdoor when I was on my way out I was still getting I but I had like super top notch stuff for outdoor like we Took really good care of everything right. So it was like we were getting 1500 The those same pounds now are going for 600 dollars. Wow Yeah, is dabbing still a thing. Oh my gosh Yeah, yeah, how do you turn? You know a substance that isn't super dangerous into like it's like the meth of yeah cannabis. Yeah How do you how do you make it so addictive essentially and really bad?  I've never tried it and I have no no Desire to even try that. It's not it's not for people like us. You'd you and I I mean even me, right? So I probably out of the three of us I smoked the most But even then like it's not like I don't smoke throughout the day and shit It's like, you know, not even every day of the week I probably every other day have something right before bed And it's so minimal like taking something like that Like you have to be like a chronic smoker to want to move up to dabbing because it's just it's 10x the strength It's great. We're not gonna get the motivation. Yeah, it's like you don't normally they don't have I think you believe you Like thinks he's like super motivated. I need more. Yeah I don't know bro. I think you're chill. Yeah Maybe we just get some snacks. He's like, dude, you understand yesterday. I wrote down five business ideas and check it out You know catch up cereal That's kind of weird Top ramen, you know, half-servings for kids How'd you guys beat the heat this weekend? Oh Oh my god, I was in two different pulls man each day. Oh, no, I didn't do it. So this so every year I've talked about this, you know the past few years Every year, uh Right around labor day is when we do when we make our sauce. This is a big thing With Italian families to the sauce everybody gets my dad went and got 900 pounds of tomatoes. That's crazy It's we go anywhere between 800 to 1200 pounds is usually what we do and gets roma tomatoes What does that fit in? Yeah, he has a work van. Oh, okay, so he fills the whole back of those creepy chester vans Except bigger no windows. You can fit three people in the back Easily. Oh good. Long long handcuffs and all yeah, no windows or anything on the sides It's exactly what it looks like. Yeah, but it's funny when I used to work with him as a kid He had a an older work van before and this is how gangster it was back in the day It only has two seats in the front But he'd take me to work and his worker his helper would be on the other side You see like on a milk crate milk my dad literally made a wood box for me to sit on and my seat belt was a rope Like why?  The visibility is horrendous those things dude try backing up and one of those Bro, he would load it when I would work with him. He would load it with so much sand and Cement or whatever that the back man. It was like there was no room Yeah, and if he hit a bump you'd have to go over it slowly just to bring you know, we're gonna crash But anyway, he filled the back up with just boxes of tomatoes And so we get there and of course, it's the hottest day of the year Oh, and the way it works is have you thought about changing this tradition to like a more like no More reasonable time of year. This is the best So it's not just my family by the way now. I'm starting to see people posted on instagram I'm seeing lots of people who are posting that they're making sauce. So is this like I I was like thinking about that. This is a great idea Yeah, is this like is it like the when the the tomatoes are the ripest and this is the best time to get it It's always the best right right around now is the best time to do it So you don't really have an option. You can't be doing this And you have like a specific farm you guys always use my dad drives down to Gilroy and he'll go to farms find the best ones and they'll sell them But you know what they used to do back in the day. So think about this 900 To 1200 pounds of tomatoes back in the day and I can kind of remember this I was really young when they stopped doing this. We used to have to go and pick them So part of the process was you went and then you pay the farmer and they'd let you pick your own tomatoes So that was a whole day a whole day. Everybody. I mean you let me work.  He's got the tomato machine where You put the cut I'll tell you guys the process.   So this is the whole process So we all go there and this time it's me and my cousins and we're all we got everything open and you know What's the temperature because it was like 113 up where I was bro in the garage. It was with a flame thing going over 120 Yes, easy. Yeah, we're sweating. We're hot poor Jessica. She's pregnant. She's trying to help and she's just She's just dying. Yeah at one point she goes inside, you know, bro. Wife gets a pass on that one I told her she wants to you know She wants it's such a it's such a great tradition because we all see each other and Now it's not my parents house because my grandparents are old and I told my parents when you guys are done with this I'll make sure to maintain this tradition, but I'm going to do it different.  I'm going to rent a warehouse.  I'm going to hire workers to do it We're all just going to show up and eat lunch Have some drinks Watch it all unfold Fold out chairs have a beer and talk about it Just supervise I remember when we used to pick the pick the tomatoes And talk about stories Oh dude the memories The machine that we put the tomatoes through used to be done with a hand crank I remember that where the kids were the ones cranking All the time Do you know that you know Gilroy Salinas area is like one of the best places in the country to grow tomatoes You know that Yeah, I didn't I didn't know garlic, of course Well, they they have the temperature. Yes the temperature is so I didn't know Salinas is actually like which we consider Salinas kind of like the armpit of the bay area But it's for for farming. It's the temperature like it's one of Because of the fog rolling over San Diego Salinas, and I forget what the third one is or like we've gone down to Salinas for tomatoes Yeah, it's the best like temperature year-round. Yeah, I don't say about Salinas. That was the first gym I managed I know but it's true though, right? And what would everyone think of that gym? Yeah, but I loved it dude the people in Salinas were so great when I managed that I felt like the I was like the mayor of the town because it's a small town, you know Everyone's like, oh you managed to the gym or whatever mayor sal But anyway, it was a lot of fun. We did the whole thing. We jarred them all finished the whole thing So now we got sauce for the next year or whatever, but it's funny because my cousins They're all they're all either newly married or engaged and so their wives or fiancés This is like the first or second time they've been a part of this thing And they're so it's funny seeing outside people coming in because when I was a kid I hated it I was like, oh, I gotta go make sauce like I'm gonna go and cut tomatoes and wash tomatoes and be hot But then as you get older You start to appreciate, you know, what you took for granted and it tastes better And their fiancés and wives when they show up, they're like, this is the most amazing thing ever I love this. I can't wait to do this next year And I you know, you hear them from the outside.  But as a kid, I was like So how do you decide uh, who gets how many jars? Is it only the people that come and help in the family or does you distribute throughout the whole family? We distribute through the whole family and we don't have enough space For everybody to come help. It would be impossible. So some people don't come. That's okay. They get jars Not a big deal So everybody gets jars people usually my parents and my aunt Will be the ones that contribute to the cost but think about look it's four It was about four or five hundred bucks for the whole operation That's it and that's that's you're talking about 900 pounds of tomatoes worth of sauce. Yeah, that's not bad No, I told my parents we got a secret little Well, that's addition at the end. We can sell these jar for five bucks. We'll be all right That's what I'm wondering.  Of course I know that if you eat real sauce it's or like they say in the east coast gravy, which I don't like But whatever it's your thing. It's it's it's fresh.  It's too much stuff in it. Yeah, it's supposed to be very light I sound like such a Tomato snob a sauce Dude, just the best shirt you have you won the shirt award. Thank you. Yeah, I I totally I mean you inspire me with certain shirts. You've been wearing lately and I was like, I gotta represent You know a little bit, uh, you don't get people to watch this movie. It's so relevant right now. I gotta rewatch Where did you get that? Did you just find it online? You know, there's this cool, uh website It's like 80s teas or something and I got like Another one of my star wars shirts from there, too And I was like man, they just have like really good throwback stuff and and you know, of course, that's my jam You know, that's what I'm always talking about. I finally got to the bar fight on cobra. Oh Hey, did you not get so high? All I could think about was a punch in the air. I only could think about was sal standing up in the living room Katrina because I told Katrina the story ahead of time. I'm like, I'm waiting for this scene I don't know where it's gonna come But there's a scene where they get in a bar fight all the cobra guy guys and sal supposedly got up and like Was in his living room throwing punches Oh Yeah, get y'all fired up so it came and I was like, oh didn't get you excited though. Oh I bet I ruined it by I shouldn't have said anything. Yeah, you probably should have because when they went to the bar I thought in my head.  It's funny though.    The boobs So I go there, you know, the rest the best part was the girl with three breasts. Oh, yeah You never heard that song. All right. No, no problem It's a good song Hey speaking of tv, uh, I have a couple ones for you So there's a new show training on netflix right now called away Almost didn't watch it. Uh, yeah, we've been watching that. Yeah. Oh, did you start it? Oh good. What do you think? I liked it. Yeah. No, it's cool. Oh, I saw this picture of it It's better than uh naked and afraid because it's like, uh, I don't know like I mean, obviously they're not there with a crew or anything And it's just about like them trying to like every day having to get food and survive and it's not like there's no Drama or fluff. I mean, there's drama just because it's like crazy conditions But yeah, it was interesting to see how everybody dealt dealt with it. I almost watched that last night I'll check it out. No, that one's good. And then I want I also watched, uh, Robin's wish which is Robin Williams documentary Did you got did you guys know how much do you know about like his his suicide and everything like that? Do you guys did you guys read much about it? No, not much. I just knew he's really depressed Okay, so you gotta watch so that's you have to watch robins wish them because What did a lot of people this documentary is a lot of people that were really close to him Finally coming out and speaking out about what was really going on. So it's like a big secret. Nobody So dude, he was battling this this type of dementia. It's called dewey's dewey's dementia or something Maybe Doug can look up the the condition in but it's a really rare degenerate neurological condition And he didn't even know that he was suffering from that And so they they they talk about like the last movie the last shows he was doing and like Talking about his brilliance and then watching it kind of deteriorate And then him struggling with that not understanding what was going on with them They couldn't figure it out because all his other health markers seem to be fine And so it's really it's really fucking sad, but it's also like you guys said exactly what I thought too like oh He was depressed. Oh louis body disease. Yes. That's what it was not dewey So when did they actually diagnose that though like not till late after his death That's why you got to watch it because nobody knew this when it first happened when it first happened all the speculation came Oh, he hung himself. Oh, he was depressed. Oh that he was short on money Like all these crazy rumors were flying everywhere about what would cause him to because you see that from like the funniest people You know, there's that other side where they're they go home and they're like super depressed and they it's almost like they need that Uh, you know caught like affirmation like going on the stage the sad part This dude did not want to leave early He did not want to leave early, but like he was literally like dying inside.  I mean they did it in a way that was it's not like it's a tear jerk or something The whole way through it's a really good like It's a really good bio on him and telling his and everyone talking about his brilliance and his talent and old clips and And then like the last series that he was doing on on tv in the last Show that he did which was the museum one. I think it was part three or whatever And they talked about like what they were watching him go through and so did they know did he tell people He was depressed and feeling bad. No like he tried to really like fight through it Because he didn't know like But he never communicated to people like man, I don't feel Not really not really, you know, he that's why depression is such a So tough sometimes because people don't say anything and you oftentimes I used to try to train this client that I had no idea she suffered from crippling like crippling crippling the depression she would show up and she would Put on a smile and a like a like a happy face and like laugh and try to like And you could I could tell that she was a little different, but I never had no idea Until after until much later When one of my uh, one of my other trainers became really close friends with her and told me she's like, you know So and so Has suffered from crippling depression for Forever and I was like no I never would have guessed never would have guessed that's how he was right So very only like the closest people like really could tell like different things were going on But even then it was hard because he was trying to cover it up. He was trying to get by You know, but he was like all of a sudden the guy who was like famous for being able to remember crazy lines and do things off The cuff was all sudden having trouble remembering lines and doing something like that And he was fighting it to try and overcome it because he was still doing all this television And so he was right in the thick of all of it still trying to cover it up and act like he was fine and normal And it was just getting it just kept getting worse and worse and worse It's like super rapid. They break out they break down how the disease works And then literally they all it all results in death Like nobody gets through this shit once it once it spreads through the whole brain Like it's and almost all of them actually end up in suicide. So it's I didn't know anything about This disease at all But it's so bad that it gets gets to a point where they most people that are battling it like they just want to Be done neurodegenerative disorders have been rising for a little while now part of it's because people live longer and the other part of it Probably due to poor health, you know, so I don't know. Yeah, it's uh, we we actually My grandparents my grandfather in particular was showing signs that he's been getting kind of depressed or whatever Not feeling good part of it's because my grandmother She had a little mini stroke and the other part of it is that we they haven't been around their family They're so family oriented. So this weekend every made everybody made it a point to go to my grandparents and You know, they were in the garage and we were all out there But we all went there and we're just hanging out with them And boy, can you see the difference in my grandparents from seeing all their kids and their family my cousins From, uh, you know, but they drove a couple hours that came down I hadn't seen them in a long time ever since kovat And again, we were being respectful and keeping our distance But my cousins started crying because she just like I you know I've been trying to bottle in how much I've missed being around everybody And you really just realize how important it is to to be around people and family and stuff, you know Oh, yeah, it's crazy. It's massively important. So would you do to beat the heat? What would you would you guys do just I actually because there's the beaches and everything were closed That was gonna be my first move But like everything was closed all the state parks and everything were closed And so I think they were just doing that to because of labor day They didn't want like crowds of people coming over and like mob and all these different places all at once And so that was fine But so I usually have my go to like I don't live that far away from this creek And so I just walk down and so we go creek walking and we kind of go exploring and whatnot It gets everybody outside get some exercise and all that but like it's literally like 20 degrees cooler Like as you walk down This valley and so we're walking down and then we go to our normal spot and there's like Like hundreds of people like everybody found our spot.    Yeah in my creek and and so it's like you guys ever seen that move I think it was stand by me where like like Baby Ruth, you know, it's so I thought about like just screaming at the top of my lungs to embarrass whoever did it You know, and I was just like there's a poop over here. And I was trying to tell everybody like point at it We're the hell out of here. Who does that who drops a deuce like that?  Watch it.   Let's see where it pops up. You dare me take a dump in the Hey, watch this. Yeah, it's like a hover. It must have been real quick because like there were so many people there How could you not see that? Is there is there any category of people more disgusting than teenage boys? They are the worst. Absolutely. Honestly, dude. I was a health line. Do you guys know the website health line? Yeah, pretty big health website. Yeah, they did a Page they had a post or whatever on the top 10 Healthy serials or low You know low carb or high protein serials.  I compared magic So you look so what they did is they listed the cereal they listed the ingredients talked about why they liked them and then the macros right these other serials are like Six grams of protein seven grams of protein There are 20 grams of carbs. They only they only made it because it was like probably low in sugar and more and less official stuff or what magic spoon blew them away. Yeah, completely, but no sugar Very legit low carb and a very high protein good quality protein The other ones didn't even come close. There were some of them that were like Shredded wheat type serials. I'm like man. Who made this list? Because it's whole wheat. That's cool though. I mean they've been getting all kinds of good pub, dude I've seen them pop all over the place. Oh, yeah, they are there. You know who else is exploding public goods Public goods sales has quadrupled uh since february boom since mine bump. They're now Right when signed off. So they're they're now in cvs. Did you know this? No, I did not public goods now has products in cvs and So here's how it works, right?  It's a brim. It's a brilliant model. It's literally like a direct to consumer version of cost go Brilliant. Yeah, you pay a low monthly or annual fee that you pay to be a part of the membership They just got an injection of money from some investors So public goods is we're and I love that when we do this sometimes we do this when we capture a company right before they Explode yeah, it looks like that's what they're doing I mean cvs is a huge retail. I didn't know that market. I did not know that. Yeah, this literally just uh, just happened Well, I know that so we're sitting here listening all of our sponsors off, right? Even though they're not commercials for them, but olipops the same thing the kroger. They just got it They just did a huge thing. They signed with a thousand kroger, uh, grocery stores. They're in a ton They're in the whole foods now. I don't know if you guys have seen them in whole foods So I haven't seen them in whole foods. Yeah. Yeah. No, they're everywhere right now too So there's a couple we got three brands like that that we've just started working with I don't know if it's a coincidence Yeah, a little bit of a bump. Yeah, dude, you guys see did you guys read the article about the gyms and the federal Or the state buildings in san francisco. Yeah, I was gonna bring that up it again. They're just more shenanigans like I mean be consistent like all this hypocrisy is killing me dude The worst thing you could do as a leader is to tell your people or whatever to do as I say Don't do as I do. Yeah That is the worst you literally are saying like I'm just above all this So in this follow, this is you know, really on the heels of what uh, Nancy Pelosi just caught caught doing Yeah, she's got caught going into salon. Oh, it was a set up. Oh, that's a set up Yeah, except you weren't wearing a mask and you're harping on everybody. You knew what you're doing Yeah, yeah, but but it was a set up so that happened then right after that I guess they someone discovered or or leaked that the state government buildings their gyms Have been opened the entire time. It's They haven't been closed at all. It's so infuriating like I mean Like think of all the gym owners here that have been decimated and then you're gonna do that in right in their face Oh, it's it's terrible. I know people who own gyms who ran them well Remember when this first happened, we were like, well, you know If you can't stay closed for a month and you know, you need to reevaluate how you've been saving your money and your business model You know, how long has it been now? Yeah, I don't know any business that could operate or last that long The gyms have been crushed dude.  Didn't they just announce that the people that were not paying rent to that they're going to be able to come back and collect rent the People that own the properties. I don't know that. Oh, yeah, you didn't hear that. Oh, yeah Well, maybe fact check me, but I'm pretty sure I know that that that they did a federal Like a ban on evictions until October or whatever, right? So there's conveniently right before the election Yeah, so there's a ban on evictions and that's true But the rumor has it that they're going to be able to come back all the people that own those properties Are going to be able to come back and still get that money Whether it's some sort of a payment plan or they're going to have to pay that all at the end of the year Like I don't know how they're going to do it with taxes and all that shit But I I have heard the rumor that that's not going to just be forgiven So if you've stopped paying rent for somewhere because you've been told that you don't have to In hopes that you it'll be forgiven. Uh, supposedly it's not it's going to get tacked on to the the end of your year So we'll see some kind of uh Nothing's really free. Yeah, right. Oh, that's crazy. Uh, maybe duck in fact Check me it says renters will be given an additional 12 months to rebate repay back rent and landlords could collect the debt through civil courts Property owners would be banned from evicting residents for unpaid rent due to coven 19 Okay Meanwhile, our whole state's just still on fire. Do you see the gender reveal that caused a huge fire? I was gonna bring that up. Yeah gender reveal party that caused the big fire Dude, how bad would you feel if that would be terrible?  Did you see well they may be responsible for the cost of the whole thing. Oh my god, which how are they gonna So there's there's supposed there's video I haven't found the video but the article that I read says there's actual footage of them Like having the party and then they're by a bunch of dry brush and supposedly they catches and they're trying to throw Like water bottles on it. You see I'm trying to put it all out before they called it in Oh my god. So yeah, that's no it's like biggest gender reveal of all time That kid's gonna turn into problem child. Yeah, remember that movie?  Hey, I want to hear about your wasp trap. I heard you probably get a dug about this Yeah, yeah, yeah, I don't know if it's like a yeah, it's like a redneck a solution or what but it's definitely like The the low-cost kind of version of a wasp trap So all you gotta do you take like a beef skewer and then you put a piece of meat on it And then you basically you have a bowl underneath it and you hang it underneath it So so the meat's like above This this thing of water so put water in the bowl with soap and that's it And and literally they go after this meat and then they keep like trying to eat the meat And then they fall and get a little bit of the soap on them and they can't fly I caught hundreds of these bastards. Oh, did you really? Yeah Brilliant. Yeah, I put like four or five of them around. Where did you find this tip? I got somebody posted. Yeah, exactly like yeah Me and Courtney were just like looking around because like the wasps dude all the bugs right now because it's so hot Are like crazy right now. So they're just all out in force and we're just getting really Yeah, did you hear that they found uh fleas in uh, let me see was it in Tahoe? I think it was south lake. They found fleas that tested positive for bubonic plague. Oh my god Like they've never left. Yeah Whatever happened to the florida thing did either one of you guys follow the mosquitoes Yeah, the mosquitoes that we morphed into something for a new wave of corona. Yeah, that's going to be 2021 That's that's next season of the of reality black mirror. No, that'll be no, that'll be four years from now an election year Again, that's that's right now. We're in the new world or trial phase The trial's almost up. How do you guys like it? Dude, what do you guys like it? What a brilliant idea what I've you know for being that I have a little bit of red neck in me I'd never heard that before. Yeah, it totally works. They blew my mind. Yeah, I'm not a fan of wasp So kills me. Oh dude like literally what is their purpose? Well, we got him up in the Tahoe house So we'll have to do that that'll be a good little hack up there because they're they're right now that and we had those big Ants those are the two things that we get up there that are that are pretty bad because we have a lost nest I know on the house that oh, yeah, so yeah Our first question is from jameel a 144 What are the top three or four supplemental exercises you can do to boost your overall deadlift deadlift strength? Oh, there you go. You know, um, I'm going to give you some exercises that have worked a lot for clients and then exercises that work really well for advanced lifters and these are two sometimes different Categories of lifts because I think advanced lifters who've been working out for a while They tend to focus on things like lifting off of blocks or using things like bands and chains But for the average lifter oftentimes There's either an imbalance or weakness and the and the whole you know chain of muscles that try to deadlift One exercise that remarkably tends to boost people's deadlifts Single leg deadlifts. Yes. Yeah, just I'm glad you went there Just a good old single leg deadlift with dumbbells or even starting with body weight getting really good at it And then adding weight with dumbbells You would be surprised at how stable and strong you felt with your traditional deadlift after practicing Single leg deadlifts. I would challenge advanced lifters there, too I I think that probably that's a no-brainer.  That's hard as shit and then that's humbling right So you have to go grab 60s and start with 60s and work your way up But I think some of the best I ever felt deadlifting was when I was simultaneously also including Heavy single leg deadlift. I just felt like you said you feel so stable And strong. Yeah, I think another one though like specifically is it pertain to what I was dealing with my ql and You know that slight shift left to right. I think a lot of lifters don't really consider I would take a heavy dumbbell or a heavy kettlebell and I would do like a suitcase carries Down and back and just really kind of working on You know making sure that my body is able to fully Stabilize and I can activate my obliques and keep everything centered as much as possible And along those lines Heavy farmer walks heavy farmer walks with a trap bar or with dumbbells I always feel so much more solid And strong with my deadlifts when I incorporate those into my workouts another one is good mornings done properly Good mornings really work on that hip hinge and hip extension and that stabilization Of the lower spine and then another here's an exercise a lot of people don't even realize can actually improve your deadlift windmills Just working up to a weighted windmill where you actually have weight in the arm That's straight up in the air and where you can go down and twist To help with that lateral stability Which a lot of people get this is how they hurt themselves when they deadlift is that the The weight shifts just a little bit They don't have the lateral stability support the weight that they're lifting and they hurt themselves or Their body because remember your body oftentimes will prevent itself from lifting more weight because of its its its own fear of injury So you may actually have the strength to lift more or possess the strength to lift more But your body is not allowing you to To get it. It's not allowing you to to tap into it because safety mechanism. It's a safety mechanism another great hip thrust All right. Hip thrust, uh, one of the so when i'm working with someone on a deadlift, um One of the hardest things is to get them to understand that this is we're trying to generate power from the hips And you're thrusting forward in a deadlift. You're not lifting the bar up because it looks like To the average person when you look at a deadlift, it's like, oh, you bend over you pick the bar up You're picking it up with your upper body, right when it's really it's a it's a lever exercise I imagine i'm pushing my feet through the floor and hips forward Yeah, and you're thrusting the hips forward and so good old hip thrust Are a great way to get people to really understand the the mechanics of what you're trying to do because you're you're opposing Gravity and a hip thrust. It's much easier for them to understand. Oh, I'm driving the hips up in the air Squeezing the glutes But that's exactly what you're trying to do when you're doing a deadlift and you get into that Hinged position is you're thrusting the hips forward instead of up like on a hip thrust So working on your hip thrust mechanics and getting really good and strong doing a hip thrust Will carry over into a deadlift many times for for most people even advanced lifters If you get if you progress your hip thrust and you start hip thrusting, you know, four or five hundred plus pounds You'll see a nice carryover into your deadlift and for sure for Beginner lifters. I think that's a great exercise and then finally Squats barbell squats, you know, it's funny I've had it and I've seen this many times where my deadlift numbers will go up But my squat numbers don't Rarely does the reverse happen for me. My squat goes up typically my deadlift numbers go up again As well. So and again, this depends on the lifter Some people are better at squatting than they are at deadlifting But if you're better at deadlifting than squatting Or you feel much more comfortable deadlifting try improving your squat and then watch what happens to your deadlift Next question is from eric in erica in texas My dad's doctor told him he shouldn't squat because it compresses your spine when you load weight on your back Instead, he just does leg presses. Is there any research you've seen about squats compressing your spine? This is where doctors need to be punched in the face. Oh, they get so many of my clients have been told Yeah, so here's the irony of this question. Yeah, it's probably worse worse off a proper squat versus a proper leg press The leg press poses much more risk Yeah, the way that a leg press is loaded when you bring the weight down especially And you get the lumbar spine to to to you know extend or flex with weight That is more dangerous than a than a or more risk than a properly done Barbell squat, but let's let's go in the opposite direction. All right, so compressive forces on the spine Not good. So that means that astronauts in space who've been out there for a while should have amazing spine health, right? Because there's no gravity The space is between their spine or you know expanded a little bit. There's nothing pressing down on them The reverse is actually true when astronauts come back down. They find that they have a bone degeneration Muscle loss is a big problem. In fact, um, this is one of the major hurdles That they have to uh, you know tackle with long space travel You know, they're thinking about sending astronauts to mars one of the biggest problems How do we keep the astronauts from degenerating? Because you need these forces to continue to tell the body to maintain strength Not just in your muscles, but also in your bones. Now, of course, we're talking about proper squats Proper loading can you use too much weight? Of course you can use too much weight on any exercise But if you do it properly You don't damage the spine you strengthen the spine you strengthen training it You train it you strengthen the muscles that support it You keep it stronger straighter for longer If functions better, so no, there's nothing about a squat that's inherently wrong I think this is the same. I think this is the same thing that we used to get with like our national certifications Right, I think that doctors have just been they're always they know they could be held liable Right, right.  He's liable for a lawsuit So he's always going to do he's always going to push clients in a direction that is a Less risky or safer route because that's what's going to protect his ass It's not necessarily what is best for the client and that was very similar to How we were even taught as trainers. I mean many of the exercises that we taught You know that we were taught that you never do behind the back Lap pull downs. Oh my god. That's so dangerous squatting below 90. Oh my god. That's so dangerous bench pressing below 90 degrees All these things Later in your career, you find out like oh, wow Actually, I want to get my clients to be able to do all these movements through full range of motion But yet all my certifications taught me that I'm supposed to stop here and it's for safety measures. And so That's where it's coming from and that's what you need to be able to express to your dad is to him to understand But always full range of motion in any exercise that we do is going to be ideal But you got to make sure that he does that safe and Doesn't try and load the bar really heavy until he has really good mechanics a gradual progression And you know if the prerequisites of of him going through and not having like proper stability If that's not in place then yeah, it would be problematic And so again, but that's not it's not to just throw that exercise out That's definitely something to work your way towards and like what does that look like a proper trainer Would be able to kind of assess ways to to regain that stability regain the strength Get proper support and mobility around the joints To support the load properly and then just gradually start to load. I would not load ahead of time Like it's not just to say like go load right away and let's work this out It's there there's steps to this but you can't just like make a bold statement like that and eliminate that when it's so I mean, I mean the results speak for themselves with people doing this Properly done squats with good control and good stability applied appropriately to the body to that person Is one of the best possible exercises you could do that's that's hands down 100 true So there's two pieces of two things I'm going to say here One is I recommend for your dad our prime bundle Because that is a correctional exercise focused Uh maps programs and so what they're going to do is in those programs. He goes through assessments He identifies issues with mobility. He corrects his movement and they'll get him to the point where he can do squats Properly safely with good stability good strength and then reap them the tremendous benefits You get from the squats now the second part is this if we're going to use the logic that your doctor Gave him then we would also eliminate any kind of running walking or hiking If you were to add up the repetitive Stress from every step you took because let's say you weigh 200 pounds every time you take a step The compressive forces on my spine are more than 200 pounds. I'm stopping gravity Then you add up all those steps all day long. It would look absolutely terrible. Oh my gosh, don't walk Don't move compressive sport, you know, uh forces are too high This is true for any anything that gets your body to get stronger or improve Is somewhat of a stress whether you get go out in the sun and expose yourself to UV rays Or you handle rough objects or you work out with weights and strengthen your body It's a slight stress, but it's the right dose that makes the difference when it's the right dose Not only is it not damaging It's healthy and it's strengthening and again if we were to break down what happens to your body even with the Proper workout if I took Justin and I put him through an appropriate workout and then while he's working out We tested his body measured inflammatory markers and hormones and damage markers on stuff From a on the computer would look terrible.  This must be absolutely terrible, but we know exercise is not terrible It's phenomenal. It's one of the best things you could do for your body So this is terrible advice from your doctor and by the way, doctors have The average doctor has zero education when it comes to proper application of exercise They don't I know I used to train a ton of doctors and surgeons and they hired me for a reason Their expertise is is a very narrow but very deep and specifically what their doctors for that's what I would stick to But when you ask them stuff on exercise and diet, um, they usually don't know any more than the average person who reads the You know the average health article not to mention that Part of the benefits of learning and and performing a good squat is the the core and low back Strengthening that you get from it when you when people look at Squats as just a leg exercise and they try and switch it out with something like leg press Which absolutely requires zero core stability or low back stability or strength It's like defeating the purpose of what the real benefits of learning how to squat would do for this person This person who has potential spine issues Nothing is going to help their spine more than getting a strong core and back muscles to support that spine If you do something like a leg press you're going to atrophy that you're not having to work it whatsoever if you eliminate squats for For the leg press Where you do not have to use any core stability and no low back muscles are being engaged when you lay down on On a in a seat and press with your legs all the only benefits you're getting from that is some leg development But a squat is so much more than that and learning how to squat is so much more than that So when you want when you have a client like this and that was always the hardest thing as a trainer So I understand where this this kid's coming or this guy's coming from With trying to probably explain to his father that he needs to learn how to do it Is because these doctors would tell clients like oh you have back issues don't do deadlifts Don't do squats, but the reality is as a trainer My goal was to get them to be able to perform those movements the safest and the best Because if I could get them to do that nothing was going to protect their spine long term more than that Next question is from one coner. If you're not getting sore should you do more sets in your workout? No First off I look and see if you're progressing. Are you getting stronger? Are you improving your mobility? If so then you're doing everything right? Soreness is a terrible Indicator of how good or bad it's technically a sign of over training. Yeah, if you get really sore That means you probably overdid it You know I here's ideally here's what how I like to feel after a workout or how I'd like my clients to feel after their workouts Maybe a little soreness or none. That's it If I asked them that and I used I would do this especially to get new clients Because when you start training the when you first get into working out It's difficult to gauge intensity because you don't know what's too much. What's not, you know, what's too little So I would text my client the day after and then the day after that and it's a how do you feel? And if they tell me oh man, I'm really sore. I know I overdid it if they said um I kind of I think I feel it a little bit, but otherwise I'm like it or if they say oh, I feel great Then we're on the right path.  Yeah, I picked this because this was one of those that Initially, we had talked about You know a while back Like I know a lot of my clients would share the same sentiment like if if they didn't walk out of the The workout in the next day they got sore. They felt like okay, can we like ramp it up? Like what are we doing here? And I mean, it's just a common thing that I think people Attribute a good workout with soreness. It's still something that exists I know that we kind of breeze past at all time because but this was definitely one of those kind of groundbreaking things that I had to like mentally Established with my clients that yes, the initially you you may feel this tightness the soreness You know the first you know a few weeks because it's just novel stimulus, right? And that does happen and when we switch it up, you're going to feel, you know, maybe a difference With the soreness just from doing different things but Eventually your body's going to react a little bit differently and so To be able to walk out of these and then come back with more energy And feel stronger. That's those are the metrics that I'm going for not the soreness I think of it real similar to like how I think about losing body fat, right? So everybody wants to see the scale move when you talk about body fat and it's like no I know I'm in the in the perfect sweet spot If I can actually maintain your scale weight But lean you out because then I know I'm applying just the ride of a caloric deficit to still be able to build a little bit Strength and muscle while you also lose body fat I think of the same thing too when I'm trying to gauge intensity of my training Can I continue to build strength and mobility in my client without them getting really sore? If I can do that, I know I am hitting that sucker right in the sweet spot You know, is it is it likely that I'm going to overreach sometimes and get them a little more sore than I need? Yeah, that's probably going to happen along the way But I know if we are getting stronger week over week or month over month And they're not feeling sore. I know I'm like I'm hitting it as a trainer I'm hitting it just right on the intensity because I'm not Overreaching and potentially setting that person back. It's the same way I look at losing body fat And I'll tell you what when I'm getting my best results It's when I'm not getting sore no joke when I'm doing good workouts and I feel good and I feel strong And then the next day. I'm not really sore That's usually when I'm kicking butt. That's usually when I'm progressing and getting stronger Each time I work out when I'm getting really sore You know once in a while because I changed my workout is okay, but if I consistently get too sore They usually they usually following with me losing progress. I'm not getting stronger. I'm not performing better Yeah, I also notice my volume goes up a bit too Just personally because of not being sore and like, you know, just like adding in a bit more, uh, you know reps and Uh, you know more different exercises. It's just it's one of those natural things It just happens because you got more energy and you're able to do a bit more Next question is from drummer man 10 89. What is your best financial advice for newlyweds?  Well, no, this is This is a hundred percent. I mean don't take them to McDonald's, you know Here's the deal. It's like a new lifter like, okay What are the advanced techniques for building biggest biceps and whatever and I'll say I think, okay I squat deadlift bench press, you know overhead press But yeah, but I read this article where Occlusion training and getting a pump and force reps and you know using bands and chains like no no no This is where you need to start So this can be confusing for people because you look up financial advice or best ways to invest And you get all these articles on how to leverage your money and leverage debt and invest in the stock market Which companies to pick, you know, how to you know, how to even gamble in the stock market with things like, you know Short-selling and all this other stuff and options and yeah Here's the bottom line. No joke and I listen. This is forget coming from me. I'm a trainer. I'm a fitness guy I come from a family of investors all my cousins. This is what they do for a living So my brother does for a living I'm on a thread with them We talk about this all the time and it's funny one of the biggest things that they talk about is how they Now that they're Experienced and advanced and investments the stuff that they used to think was totally wrong Just like when we started working out. I thought it was all these advanced techniques when in reality It was the basics. Yeah, that would have got me there They said man the best thing you could do when you first get started is two things number one Eliminate your debt. So don't have debt. Don't have credit card debt. Don't have car debt. Don't pay interest That's that's money.  So be it don't have credit card debt at all That's again another big waste and then number two save a hundred grand That's what they always said my cut. They always say this save your first $100,000 after you because nothing you can do up into that point Will be as consistent as just saving or as effective as just saving a hundred grand once you save a hundred thousand dollars and you do that Then you look at investing in the market or potentially buying property And stuff like that but until you get to that point And this is what they tell me that you are dumb for having debt and for not trying to save your money What you're probably going to do is you'll make a few mistakes lose it and then you're totally screwed So it's better off to save and not spend and I know that sounds old school and boring But that's what they continue to hammer into me, you know, that's I think that's great advice, dude I think so I have two things. I'm gonna I'm gonna give you and I'm gonna preface it like Sal did I'm just a fitness guy, you know, so I'm not the I'm not a financial advisor But I I learned the hard way so I made good money when I was really young And spent and lost a lot of money and so later in life. I I came up with this kind of semi-conservative formula for myself and It's not like what you'll read in some books because then I'll give you a great book to read too on top of this That doesn't completely align with this But this is what really got me in a direction of like in a place where I could invest like Sal saying saving My first hundred thousand and moving to where I could actually have money working for me And that was because here's where I struggled somebody who didn't have Have much and then I and then I got money was like man. I work so hard. I want to be able to reward myself I want to be able to enjoy some of these things. I have there's there are materialistic things that I like I do like to drive nice car. I like shoes. There's all these this stuff that I like But then at the same time too, I don't want to be irresponsible like what Sal's alluding to right now So I had this little thing that I used to do and it was okay And I've always had jobs or businesses on the side to where my my pay is always kind of fluctuated Where it's not always like this flat this flat rate I could work harder in a month because I own my own businesses to make more money And so I made a deal with myself that if I wanted to buy something whether it be a hundred dollar pair of sneakers or a $50,000 classic car I had to have saved or invested the same amount of money So if I wanted a hundred a hundred dollar pair of shoes I would I need to have also saved or invested a hundred dollars of of that money that month So I never ever spend in a month's time more than what I've saved 50 50 50 50 So and then that's after bills, right? So you pay all your hard costs that you have whether that be car payments rent mortgage, whatever you have Take care of all that then I have a set amount of money left over Of that 50 percent of that I would allow to buy things that maybe I want and then the other 50 percent has to be Saved that's gotten me a long way Now that doesn't completely align with the book. I'm going to refer to you I wish I would have read this book because it's definitely tightened I've tightened my game up and it goes more in line with what sal said Was a great book reference from our good friend Mike Matthews And I just finished reading it uh not that long ago So and this I think would be great if you're uh recently married I've talked a long time ago on the podcast about things that Katrina and I have done to You know build and strengthen our relationship one of those things that we do is we listen to audio books together Listen to millionaire next door Great read Also would be great for you and your partner to listen to it together Make a you know a couple hours out of the week Whether that be just one or two hours out of the week that you dedicate that you and her sit down or you and him I don't know who's asking this question You know sit down and listen to this book and work your way through that and it addresses everything that sal said And everything that I've talked about about how you should save and invest your money Yeah, I think I mean just to kind of throw this out there reading this question to me is really about getting both parties in alignment first and I think that a lot of couples Still operate with their own financial strategies independent of each other And I and I was actually talking to a few like when my brother-in-law and like how they kind of Got to the point where they are, but it took some time to You know really relieve the fact that you know your money is is their money It's the collective money. So you got to figure out You're both of your goals and how you can align both of your goals together So you really need to have that conversation and sit down And pull everything together now And really just kind of put all that extra stuff of I pull all this in and you're not doing it It just creates dissension That just never works. It just ends up in like fights and money is a big thing that really breaks up couples. And so To to really just establish Both of your goals write them out How you're going to get there definitely eliminating debt, you know Saving money like all these like old schools conservative methods are you know time tested for a reason But then how are you going to then you know collectively as a team Move forward in in your investment strategies and all that but that's something that I mean I had to like have that hard conversation and really put a lot of time and effort in okay We have all this debt here from my school We have this from you know your nursing school like this how we're going to eliminate this like what kind of strategies are going to use in terms of like Using our credit card to paying it off every month so that way we build up our credit score like You know things like that that just having that conversation. I think is crucial Yeah, you know what the the challenge with this is that and it's again like fitness People who are getting into fitness and want to change their bodies. They look at the Genetically gifted or the guys or girls who take steroids when oh I could look like that in a year if I just did all this crazy stuff And you know those of us who've been training people for a long time understand the average person No, you it's not going to work that way You'll never be able to sustain it and you're not going to look like they will Because you're your own person It's like you look at millionaires who start this you know company and blow up or you have a friend who got into a company Who then went public and they became millionaires and say like oh This is how you do it This is the fast way to do it if I invest it here and I make 15 percent here and 10 percent there Within 10 years will be it doesn't work that way. It's a it is unfortunately or fortunately It's a slow process. But look maybe it takes you 10 years to save a hundred thousand dollars Okay, because it sounds like a lot of money. I know to a newlywed you think like I got how many to save a hundred thousand dollars Okay, it might take you 10 years or 15 years That's the hard part after you get to that point now you have some money you can invest and here's the thing with money The more you have the the more you can make it's that initial period That's difficult that initial period of eliminating debt And saving your money and that also by the way that also helps you develop the skills And the financial health to be able to deal with money when you make it or maybe even lose it Because there is a lot of skill that is involved with that. This is why lottery winners tend to go bankrupt They don't have the skills associated with earning that money.  It's a good read for you And I think it'd be great for you as a partner to do look mine pump is recorded on video and audio If you want to see our faces come check us out on youtube. You can also find us On instagram you can find justin at mine pump justin me at mine pump sal adam at mine pump adam And dug the producer. He's got an instagram page, too.

The expectations, this section is basically based upon the expectations theory. So expectation theory says that the interest rate on long-term bonds is always equal to the average of the short-term bonds that cover the same time period with different maturities. In other words, we can say that the investor is indifferent between the bonds that mature over different time periods. So if the investor has to decide that he has to invest in a short-term bond or a long-term bond, he stays indifferent. What he would do is he will simply take into account the average of the short-term bonds, the return which is going to be earned, that can be earned on the short-term bonds and that average is then matched with the yield or the interest rate on the long-term bonds. So if the two things are equal to one another, then the investor will take the two things equally. So we need to make it sure that the average of the short-term bonds turns out to be the same as somebody can earn from the long-term bond. It is necessary because according to the investment analyst or the investment experts or the proponents of the expectation theory, if the long-term bond yield is smaller as compared to the average of the short-term bonds, then nobody will invest in the long-term bonds. So in order to make the long-term bonds equally desirable, what is to be done is that the yield on the long-term bond must be equivalent to the average of the short-term bonds. So that's the basic concept of the expectation theory, which says that you need to make it at par. Otherwise people will prefer investing only in those types of securities or bonds whose yield is higher as compared to others. So if you want the other options the same level of desirable for the investor, then you need to consider this aspect that the yield should be at least the same for the long-term bonds. Why? Because we have observed that most of the people or the investors are risk averse and they prefer to invest in the short-term investments. So if they are planning to or intending to invest in the long-term bonds, then it is important that whatever they can earn from the long-term bonds should be equivalent to the short-term bonds. So people prefer to they will not hold the long-term bonds unless and until the return or the yield on the long-term bonds becomes lower than what they can earn by investing in the short-term bonds. So basically what we are trying to say is if this is so the yield is at par for the long-term and the short-term bonds, then the two types of bonds or the bonds with multiple different types of maturities are considered as perfect substitutes of each other and the investors become indifferent to choose the short-term or the long-term bonds, right? So that's the basic concept behind that. So I'm going to explain the expectations theory with the help of an example. For example, if there is a certain short-term bond that will mature in a year and the expected yield for that short-term investment is for example, 6%. And if we invest in another short-term bond in the next year or the second year, then we are expecting that the yield that will be that can that can be earned investing in the second year for a short-term bond for another short-term bond or the same short-term bond will be 8% in year two. So if I have to invest in a long-term bond, the return on the long-term bond which is expected to mature in two years must be equal to the average of these two short-term bonds. So how we find out the average we know we will consider the yield from the first year short-term bond that is 6% and then in the next year, second year, we are expecting to earn 8% from the by investing in one year term bond. So 6% plus 8 will give you divided by 2 will give you a 7% average. So this average is then compared to the long-term bonds. Here we are assuming that the long-term bond will mature in two years. So if the long-term bonds yield is 7%, only then the investor will consider the long-term bond as a viable option and this is how the planners that plan or they decide the yields on the short-term bond and the long-term bond, they do consider this particular aspect explained by this theory that they need to be at par and this is the investors consider the two types of instruments that are maturing in just one year or over two years or like for example in five years, whatever expected yields are there, they should be equivalent to each other. So when we explain this expectation theory in terms of the three facts which we identified earlier and those facts were defined by looking at the historical data, explaining the relationship between the yields or the rate of return over different maturity time periods. So we have observed that there is fact number one which says that whether the bonds are short-term or long-term, they are going to mature in a year or they are going to mature in 20 years, the overall yields from the short-term bonds and the long-term bonds more or less move in the same direction. So if the short-term yields are moving up, the long-term yields will also move up and if the short-term yields are going down, the long-term yields also follow the same pattern. So there are ups and downs over bonds of different maturities that move in almost the same direction. So this has been observed in the historical data and that has been considered as fact number one. So if we take into account the expectation theory, we are saying that the investor considers the average of the short-term bonds and it matches or compares the yield or the return which he is going to expect from the long-term bonds. So if the short-term bond yields are going up, the long-term bonds will also go up because they are to be compared and they have to be matched. So we say that the expectation theory is in line with fact number one. Then the fact number two that was observed from the historical data was that when the short-term yields are low, people expect that in future the short-term yields will rise. So there is an upward movement whereas when the short-term yields are considerably low, they are expected to rise in future, they will move in upward direction. But if it has been observed in the market, according to the historical data, that the short-term yield or the rate of interest that is earned on the short-term investment instruments or any type of bonds that are going to mature in just one year. For example, if they are high, then we expect that the yields are going to fall in future. So there is a downward movement. So we say that the yield curve becomes inverted. So this is fact number two which has been observed in the historical data that shows the relationship between the yield and of different types of bonds that are going to mature in different time periods. So when we look at the expectation theory, it also confirms fact number two. But when we consider the fact, the third fact, fact number three, which says that most of the times the yields move in the upward direction. So the rate of return, the expected rate of return is observed mostly going up. So if we look at this particular aspect, we are saying that in the case of the short-term and the long-term bonds, the two things are considered to be equal. Otherwise people will not invest in the long-term investment opportunities. Hence this particular theory fails to explain fact number three.


Therefore, you can only get the suspense element going by giving the audience information. It's kinda hot out here for ol' pimp. It's pretty hot out here today. True. Out here in the streets. Hee! Zen dude, nation, before you even get into this video, can I just thank each and every one of you for being a part of this community? This community is nothing without you, so thank you again and let's get into the video. I know I do, but when I used to travel and get outside my normal routine, I was completely overwhelmed by thinking about how am I going to get my work done, what gym am I going to go to, what work am I going to do, it was just a lot. And because it was a lot, sometimes a week would go by and I wouldn't exercise at all. And because it seems to overwhelming, sometimes it is easier just to be like, you know what, forget it, I'll wait till I get back home, then I'll get back in my program then. Nuh-uh! Nuh-uh! Uh-uh! No! No! No! No! No! Now follow these simple steps we're about to give you to make working out a normal part of your travel routine. Yo man, don't be honking at me, talking to Zendu Nation over here. Now before we get into that, if you do want to grab some of the workouts we're about to tell you about in this video, you can click the top right hand corner of the screen and get into our free four week challenge where we give you four weeks of jump rope and body weight workouts for free. And I coach you up and Dan coach you up and the other people in the group give you love, and it's all good stuff. So you can click that right now if you want to. Now let's see what's up with these steps. Step number one, do not overextend yourself when you are traveling.  Don't overextend yourself. Commit to working out on 60 to 70% of your travel days and only working out for 15 to 20 minutes each session.  No, but we're saying 15 to 20 minutes needs to be a budget you put together for your workouts while you're traveling on the road. Step two goes to the people who are really, really busy when they're traveling. And for those people, I say try to make your workout a part of your normal travel routine. So hear me out on this one. That means if you're in New York City, for example, you might have to be traveling and walking all over the city. Don't try to overextend yourself. If you are walking five to 10 miles a day, that's cool. That's your workout while you're traveling for that day. Now, if you're not walking around a lot, try to find a way to move your body that fits in with whatever meetings or things you have set up around a city or place you're visiting. So if you're gonna work or you have a meeting somewhere specifically, map out and try to find a park nearby.  Speaking of jump rope, if you do want a jump rope workout you can do in parks, I would click the button in the top right hand corner right now because we have one for you. So open it in a new tab and you can do that next time you're traveling. Step three, get it done early. Here's the thing, energy is a finite resource. If you have so much going on, a whole whirlwind of stuff throughout the beginning of your day, by the time you get to like seven or eight p.m. when you're trying to like turn off mentally, you're not gonna have the energy to work out. So use this finite energy, get it in early. Do it before you even start your day, maybe in the morning before you even leave to go do whatever business or whatever obligations you have for the rest of the day or break up your day by doing it before lunch so you can move your body and if you follow some of the stuff you talk about when it comes to intermittent fasting, you can break your fast after your workout with your lunch. Is that to say you can't work out later in the day? No, but I'm trying to make this easier for you. Energy is a finite resource and if you have a hard time working out when you're traveling, then don't leave it to the last minute, all right? Make sure that you're scheduling it in, you're budgeting it in earlier in your day. Step four, set a standard for yourself. So many of us will go on a trip and will say, you know what, I really wanna work out while I'm traveling, but seven days will go by and then you get home and you realize you didn't work out one time and you're like, what happened to the week? Well, what happened to the week was you didn't schedule it in. So what you need to do is put that budget to work out in, at minimum, try to move your body 70% of the week. So when you're traveling five, sometimes even up to six days a week, try to move your body. Not just for the physical benefits, but while you're traveling, sometimes it gets to be emotionally stressful and going and moving your body will help you release some of that energy. Step number five, do something that's fun. The whole point of this fitness stuff is so you have a long life that you enjoy. So what we want you to do is really try to integrate your worlds. Find a way to make moving your body integrate with the travel that you already have to do. Awesome ways to do this are exploring the cities or new places that you're going to or even if you've been there multiple times before, just go explore there. If you're in New York City, go up to the High Line and walk or jog or run or jump rope or just do something and check that thing out, it's awesome. If you're in Austin, Texas, get up on a stand up paddle board and go out in the lake for a little bit. If you're in Los Angeles or San Diego, try out surfing. If you're up in Portland, Oregon, go for a bike ride around the city. I could go on and on about the dope places that you could go, move your body and explore, but instead I want you to think about places that you go to. The next time you're going to go somewhere new, plot out some places in the city where you can go make your workout a part of travel, adventure and just enjoying life. All right, Zendu Nation.
