Good morning. Welcome everyone for the class this morning. Yes, good morning, Simran, Manghi, Kennedy. I would like to request one of you to please lead us in prayer, anybody who's comfortable to do so. Yes, yes, please, Manghi. Thank you. Okay, let's pray. Heavenly Father, we thank You just for this opportunity to come and learn Your Word, Lord, to be instructed, Lord, in Your ways this morning. We pray, Father, that Your Holy Spirit will guide us, Lord, and will help us observe this material, also that they will bear fruit in our heart, Lord, not only in our hearts, Lord, and also help us teach others, Lord. We pray all this, Father, in Your mighty name, Lord Jesus. Amen. Amen. Amen. Thank you. Thank you, Manghi, for that. Welcome once again, all students. Thank you for joining this morning's class. We will continue from where we stopped. So we've been learning about, you know, the features of the apostolic and we came to this place where we are trying to understand what the present day apostolic ministry is going to do and what is it going to look like. So we started with chapter 4 and then I began to, you know, share with us that the apostolic ministry is a pioneering ministry where one takes on new territories, not necessarily geographical ones, and that, you know, an apostle is somebody who tends to be first, okay, or proton first in terms of the timing of entering into the new territory or causing this expansion to take place. So that's how we understood that. And then, you know, we continued to see that the apostolic anointing lays a strong foundation for lasting works. So when it comes to church planting, we would see that, you know, the foundations are laid for, you know, several churches to be planted and for them to be overseen through the apostolic anointing. We also looked at the fact that, you know, through this anointing, God continues to execute his plans and purposes with regard to regions, with regard to various spheres in society. Then the apostolic anointing guards the doctrine. It establishes people in the whole council of God's word. It activates and equips believers for spiritual ministry because, you see, it's one of the five five-fold ministry offices. And therefore, you know, the role is to equip the believers. So that's what it would do. We saw that there is a great role that the apostolic plays in providing leadership to emerging leaders. So emerging leaders are identified, they are equipped, they are ordained. And then the apostolic would continue to be in touch and, you know, continue to lead and guide these leaders. Then establishing order in local churches is also something that the apostolic anointing is related to because you see, it's not just about getting things moving, but getting them moving in line with the standard of God's word. That is, again, a passion that the apostolic anointing has. So somebody who is leading, you know, sets of churches or a movement, you would see that at the at the founding stage, such a person generally sets some of the standards in place, things like holiness, purity, integrity. All these principles help the growing movement, you know, to then kind of use this and then plan their churches and continue to lead people as per the initial standards. Then apostles also speak to leaders and authorities around the world because God gives that stature and the open doors to share about the gospel with, you know, it could be political leaders or it could be leaders in any other arena. Then apostles show godly independence. They tend to, they, if they have a team well and good, but even if they don't have a team, you know, they are the kind who are very daring and they're willing to step out and do whatever it takes, you know, to establish God's kingdom. So that is something that we observe that apostles also manifest supernatural signs and wonders. We've seen a lot of that in the acts of the apostles that through the hands of the apostles, signs, wonders, miracles took place. And as we saw earlier in the book of acts, apostles also underwent persecution and they endured through very, you know, very hard times and still continued to take the gospel to new territories. Now, in the present day, we can expect the same thing. Imagine somebody who is pioneering, they're not going to be spared, right? So they will be a target for the enemy. They will be, you know, considered as disrupting the existing way of life. And therefore, there will be some sort of an opposition that an apostle would have to face. So this is the way in which the apostolic will unfold in our present times. Now, again, we can't say that every person who is called as an apostle will display all the features of what I have just shared. You know, it could be some aspects. We might see that a person is anointed, they initiate a movement and through them, you know, many churches are planted and primarily like a church planting movement starts off with this person, they set the standards, they have a teaching anointing to proclaim God's word. And, you know, the truth is revealed very clearly to the people and based on this, people are doing well in the many local churches. So it could just look like a church planting movement, but a huge one. So then, you know, that this is an apostolic anointing, you may not see some of the other features, you know, you might not see that this movement or the set of churches or the leaders here are communicating with political leaders or, you know, leaders in some other sphere of society. But then we can't discredit the fact that, you know, one thing is happening, which is of the apostolic anointing. And so it is definitely categorized under the apostolic. So what I'm trying to say is that we might have a combination of a couple of these, these features in present day apostolic, and then, you know, that should be helpful enough for us to recognize that, okay, what we are seeing here is the apostolic anointing. Okay. Now, we'll continue to understand the present day apostolic. So once again, you know, you have a couple of points here describing what an apostle means. So it's a word study of the word apostle. And over here, no, it is reiterated that it comes from the Greek word apostle, which means to be sent forth. So one who is sent forth. And in this word is what is known as a transliteration from the Greek language, which simply means, you know, you take a word from another language and you just use it as it is with no or minimum changes. And so the meaning which the original word had in the previous language is applicable. So the word apostle, it was used for for people who went and took new territory.  So we're not talking about this in a so much in a geographical or a territorial sense anymore. But in the Bible, when we look at the term apostle, it is a spiritual term. So because we understand about kingdom, right? The kingdom of God, a spiritual perspective, we know that we are not talking about, you know, unrighteously or forcefully invading, you know, human systems. So that's not at all what we are talking about. Why is it that we have to clarify this simply because there's also some offshoots of the apostolic teaching, where, you know, they have different terms, dominionism.   Now, you know, we know where they're coming from, but that's not how the Bible actually teaches the apostolic. Okay, so the concept of dominating the concept of, you know, taking over every leadership position, especially political Christians have to be the politicians, they just have to be. All these things are an extrapolation of the apostolic, you know, what we are studying here and it's not necessarily what the Bible teaches. So, when we talk about the apostolic and the kingdom taking over, we are talking more in a spiritual sense. Now, if let's say some believers end up being politicians or CEOs or, you know, generals of armies, well and good, but every believer is not required to, you know, do that. So, whenever the Lord positions us, plants us, we can still display and release the apostolic through our lives. So, you know, that's the understanding of the word here. Now, continuing with that, over here in the word study, there is an additional thing that you could note, point seven here in our notes, it says that the term Apostle, as used in those days, had to do with naval expeditions. And so, again, you know, when you consider what naval expeditions did, you would notice that, you know, they, again, they would go into new territory and, you know, take the fleet, go in there and wage war if required and completely take over a new land. So, that sense of taking over Kingdom rule and reign is coming through once again over here. So, the word study, you could go through it by yourself. I'm not going through it point by point because so many things that we've already discussed, you know, it'll just keep getting repeated and it might not be of, I mean, it won't make the subject interesting. So, okay, point nine here is also something that we can look at. Now, basically, it shows us that there are certain terms that are similar to the Apostle. Okay, so the work that an Apostle does of taking new territories, you have roles in Christendom which do something very similar, but then, you know, they are not an equal to an Apostle. So, what are these roles or what are the terms given to these roles? Missionary. Okay, a missionary is also somebody who is sent out. They go to a new place. If we know about missionaries, you know, famous missionaries, people like, you know, Aida Scudder, you have, okay, I'm just not getting names right now. How about you tell me some names? David Livingston, yeah, can you give me some names of missionaries? Hudson Taylor, William Carey. Okay, do we have some names here on chat? Okay, anyway, so these are all names of missionaries. Now, why can't we call these people as Apostles? Good question, isn't it? Because when we study the word Apostle, the word is to be sent out. Okay, so missionaries also sent out, but then, you know, you have to compare the other features. What about the governmental authority that one talks about, you know, when we understand the Apostolic? What about the ability to teach God's word, bring revelation of the truth of God's word? What about, you know, pioneering new ministries? So, these are the additional features of the Apostolic. So, if you compare just missionary, somebody who goes out to take the Gospel with an Apostle, you would see that many features are missing. Now, if a missionary ends up becoming an Apostle, well and good. But, you know, we cannot say that an Apostle is equal to a missionary. Okay, so we just compare these terms. So, there are other terms like reformer, revivalist, pioneer, ground breaker, okay, even church planter. You know, you can have a church planter who probably plans a few churches, but that person need not be an Apostle. Okay, so, you know, it's when we understand the features of an Apostle thoroughly is when we know what the Apostolic anointing is all about. So, even if there are roles that come close to the Apostolic anointing, they cannot be called as an Apostle. Okay, so, yeah, ground breaker, crusader, messenger, emissary, representative, these are all the terms, Apologist, these are all terms that people use for a certain function, okay, not necessarily an Apostle. Now, another very important thing about the word Apostle is point two here in our notes, which describes it as a delegate, okay, a delegate. So, delegate is somebody who is vested with the authority by the sender. So, that also is something that we have to be careful to understand. So, an Apostle is sent, but sent with authority. So, that also adds, you know, depth to that word Apostle. Okay, yeah, all the other points are things that we have already discussed. So, you know, I'm not going to go over the word study which has been given here for us. A different point or a unique point is point 18. The notes which says that the concept of the Apostle needs to be demystified, which simply means that, you know, when we study about an Apostle, it's impressive, you know, that here is an individual who has the capacity to break ground, enter new territories, and, you know, get a movement started, get, you know, get the momentum to, you know, overthrow the works of the enemy in that particular place, or let's say, you know, it's a system that we're talking about. So, bring about a transformation, a reform of the system. So, seeing an ability of that sort, you know, what tends to happen is that people put that individual or, you know, the offices that have an Apostle, the Apostle on a pedestal. And look at that person as, oh, you know, here are all these just exemplary attitudes and capacities that this person has. And, you know, we must give this individual a lot of honor. And, you know, they're treated like they're superhuman in many ways, you know, whenever you have an Apostle, people tend to give them a lot of respect. Now, to honor whom God has honored is a good thing because that's what we are taught to do in God's word. But to treat somebody as if they were superhuman and, you know, to kind of do the honoring, to overdo the honoring is not right. So, even though an Apostle is vested with, you know, all these abilities and this amazing anointing, and if you go back and look at the Apostles of the early church, they were amazing. They were leading the church, they were teaching God's word, they were traveling out, they were, you know, we said that God was doing mighty signs, wonders through the hands of the Apostles. The Apostles would lay hands and miracles would take place. So, it was but natural for the people who were following to look up to these Apostles and think something is so different about these Apostles.  So, you know, you really hold them in high regard. And that's true of the present day Apostles as well, because the anointing will manifest in that manner. But then, you know, at the end of the day, they are children of God. They have been redeemed just the way any other believer has been redeemed. And, you know, we should not overdo, we should not overdo the honoring part of the Apostles. Okay, so that's the point. So, we recognize the gifting, we recognize the anointing, but the Apostle should not be treated as somebody so special as compared to every other anointing that God has released. Okay, so that is something new in that section there. So, now coming to the 60 trends that will emerge with the full restoration of Apostles and prophets. This is again a study that has been included in our notes here. And as you go through these points, you would notice that there is a sense of repetition once again here in these points, but I'll just try to bring out the unique points for us. Okay. Okay, so I see some comments here in our chat. So, you mentioned certain names. And I'm assuming you have answered the question that I was asking about missionaries. It is an apostolic work, but not in a post. Okay, yes, that's fine. So, any questions, any thoughts at this point? Okay, is this clarifying your idea of an Apostle? Okay, great. All right, so I can see some feedback there. All right, so let's just move forward then. Yeah, coming to the trends here. So, what will we see when the apostolic anointing begins to function in its fullness? We will see a great emphasis on signs, wonders, miracles across the body of Christ, because that is a feature of the early church, isn't it? So, that God's power was released and the supernatural was very evident in the rising church. And that will happen even in today's time. And we're tending towards it. We are moving towards it. And you can, as I'm talking, you know, all of us could think of, we could think of this happening, maybe now part of the globe or some other part of the globe, and we could say, hey, yes, you know, God is doing this right now. And he's pouring out his apostolic anointing. And we can see this coming together. So, you know, I'm just going to touch on these features. And we will see a lot more of all these features taking place in our midst in the days to come. So, greater emphasis on signs, wonders, miracles, there will be revelation inside about the word of God, because the apostolic carries that kind of a teaching anointing where the truth will be broken down in such a way that the body of Christ can walk in it. We will continue to see expansion of the church, not just in the physical, but also, as I told you, in different spheres of society, systems. So, you know, non-physical arenas as well, you would see an expansion of the kingdom of God with a pioneering ability, pioneering ability as we saw in 1 Corinthians 12-28, that the Apostle is first Apostle or Proton. So, they will get into those spheres and lead the other anointings. So, then the other anointings will come and begin to do their work. And what is the expected end? The kingdom come. God's kingdom will take over in that particular sphere or arena. So, we will also begin to see the emergence of new leaders and ministries. So, you know, we rejoice in what God has done so far, but as we move ahead, we will be amazed that God has caused a nurturing through the apostolic and new leaders have started to come on the scene. New ministries have emerged, and not just emerged, you know, you would see that they too have been mentored really well and that they're doing a good work for the kingdom of God. And how is all of this happening? Because the apostolic is sort of taking care of these new people, these new ministries, and they are now at a level or a stage where they can really be seen by people. So, the rising up of new leaders, new ministries, that is something that we will see. The enforcement of biblical standards for leadership. You know, there are a lot of great ministries, praise God for that. But then, unfortunately, you know, sometimes we might see a slacking standard. And, you know, for the apostolic, it's really frustrating to see something like that. And also, it angers the apostolic to see fallen standards. So, what does the apostolic anointing do? They would step in and they would try to correct the wrong, correct the fallen standards. For example, yeah, so in the, I don't know which year it is, but there was something called as the shepherding movement that took place. I think it was the 90s. And it was, it was really a good thing that was happening in the global church where people were taught to adopt other new believers under them, under their wings, and to train them, disciple them in the Word of God. So, this is nothing new.  He had taken 12 people and trained them as his disciples. But then, what began to happen through this whole shepherding movement is that, you know, it went to an extreme where beyond just helping one become a disciple of Christ and, you know, to step into their calling, the leaders were actually controlling the lives of these disciples. So, you know, when it came to things like what career to choose, whether to buy a home or not, where to live, you know, whom to marry, the leaders were dictating terms. So, the movement ran into trouble and it was really not, you know, something that it should have been. So, you see, there's something good that emerges. But then the standards, maybe over a period of time, you see that, you know, it's not aligning to what the Bible really says. So, these kind of standards have to be set right. So, it took the interference of many leaders and, in fact, some of the leaders who were part of the movement themselves stepped down and they said, hey, we no longer want to be a part of this movement because this is not right. This is not as per the character of God and the truth of God's word. So, the standard in that good, so-called good ministry which had risen up needed to be corrected. So, what does the apostolic do? It tends to step in and make the amendments, make the changes and, you know, it really asks God's people to be accountable so that things are set right. So, as we, you know, look at what God is doing in the world through the apostolic anointing, we will see that there is a call to rise up to the right standards and that's what apostles will do. Yes, they will be happy about new ministries and new leaders but they'll hold them accountable and say, okay, come on, you know, we're doing ministry, how are we doing it? Can we do it with righteous standards and principles and things like that? So, yeah, I think I'll just leave it at that. Now, moving forward, we, a point five here says enforcement of biblical standards for leadership. Okay, so, just in line with what I said about standards in the ministries, standards with regard to a leader's lifestyle. Okay, because when you see the way Paul mentored Timothy, he taught him about what kind of a leader he should be and when it came to Timothy selecting leaders for the church, you know, he spells it out, a bishop should be like this, these should be his, his, you know, spiritual standards and these should be his moral standards for Timothy three, if you look that up. So, there will also be an emphasis on the right standards for a leader. And the apostolic is passionate about having the right standards even for a leader. Okay, so, we will see a lot more of this emerge. Okay, now moving forward, greater emphasis on spiritual warfare is also something that we will see. So, you see what we are discussing right now are trends. Okay, or the section here says emerging trends. So, we might have some reference to things like this that are already taking place, but then, you know, for those of us who haven't yet seen or don't have examples of these things, you know, we can just observe the global body of Christ and you know, we can just see these standards emerge. So, there will be a greater emphasis on spiritual warfare. Why? Simply because when you talk about taking new territory or taking new ground, you know, you just don't take new ground without fighting the enemy. And who's this spiritual enemy that we're talking about, right? Ephesians 612 says, we are not against flesh and blood, but against principalities, powers of darkness. So, a feature of the apostolic has definitely got to be spiritual warfare, because unless we rise up in prayer, unless we rise up in prophetic intercession, unless we rise up in making decrees and you know, all of those things, how are you going to see, how will you see the stronghold of the enemy fall and how will you even take over new territory? So, spiritual warfare, it's a huge part of the apostolic and we will see more and more of spiritual warfare and taking on of new territory. There will be greater endurance for persecution that will arise against the apostolic movement, which is understood. There will be great boldness on the part of the apostles and you know, the apostolic people of God who continue to do God's work. There will also be a greater release of resources for the kingdom of God. You know, when you talk about expansion, there is a need, isn't it? There is a need of financial resources. There is a need for human resources in terms of well equipped leaders, well equipped believers and God is doing that at this time, that people are being prepared, their hearts are being prepared, the financial resources, whatever it is that is required for kingdom work, those things are mobilized into the work of God. So, we will see more of this taking place around us. We will see the emergence of new churches. So, part of the apostolic is the church planting movement. So, there will be many new churches that will arise and not only that, there will also be the strengthening of existing churches. So, how can we say that the existing churches are strengthened in the revelation of God's word, strengthened in the work of the spirit? You know, maybe they are not the ones to move in the supernatural. But you know, today we have teaching, right? We have a lot of teaching about the prophetic. We have a lot of teaching about the gifts of the Holy Spirit. And as God is equipping his people around the world, churches will step into these new zones and see the manifestation of God's power. So, in this manner, churches will be strengthened and not just the supernatural aspect, but also moral standards. As you know, the apostolic emphasizes, hey, we need to have the right personal standards. We need to have the right spiritual standards, the right moral standards. You will see that there are good leaders that are being trained up in the churches. And so, churches are being strengthened. So, we'll have new churches as well as the existing churches will be strengthened in various ways. We'll also see an atmosphere of liberty, because there will be a greater, there will be an openness for the work of the Holy Spirit through the understanding of God's word. There will be a contending against heresy, because the apostolic is passionate about right doctrine. Now, again, going back to Acts 15, when the apostles heard about circumcision, it says that they contended or they were in a fight or they were arguing with the people who were teaching the wrong doctrine. So, the apostolic will not keep quiet when there are wrong things floating around. And it will rise up and it will bring correction to lies and deception in the body of Christ. So, that is something that we would see. We will also see that as teaching improves, as new truth is brought to the body of Christ, there will be many believers rising up by embracing their destiny. So, it really will strengthen the body of Christ at large, because you can observe every believer understanding that, hey, I have, God has a plan for my life and God has a call and an anointing for me. So, in church history, we've understood that at one point there was Leti and there was clergy. So, the clergy would do their work and the Leti would just follow the instructions of the clergy. But in the church today, as the Spirit of God is moving and all these anointings are being poured out, the pastors know their role as leaders, but the believers also are recognizing their part. Now, some of them might completely dedicate themselves within the four walls of the church and serve in full-time ministry, but other believers will recognize their role, whatever it is. Maybe it's out there in the world, in the marketplace, but they will embrace it and they will begin to make a difference for God even in the workplace. So, that is what we're talking about. So, as God strengthens the apostolic anointing, we will see every believer embracing their call, embracing their purpose, being equipped, not just personally being strong but stepping into ministry one way or the other. So, we will also see that there will be a great, there will be a great openness for the supernatural even among believers. I said that they will embrace their call, but they will also be ready to function with the gifts of the Holy Spirit. There will be a sense of boldness, there will be a sense of reverence and fear towards the things of God because that again, that's a feature of the apostolic. If you recall in Acts 5 when Ananias and Sapphira, they wanted to do their own thing and they did not fear God, what happened at that time brought a sense of reverence towards God. They were judged for their wrongdoing and what did that do? The fear of God spread among the people and they understood who God really is and how we must honor God through our lives and our decision. So, the apostolic will, if I may put it this way, restore the fear of God among God's people in today's time and age. So, that again is a feature of the apostolic and we will see that. There will be a great release of prayer and intercession and that has to do with spiritual warfare and then that leads to taking new territories. There will be an increase in fasting because that again has to do with humbling ourselves before God, receiving, being strengthened in our faith, receiving greater grace from God and that again leading to spiritual warfare and then entering into new territories. There will be an encouragement of individuals and churches to embrace more global vision and ascending mentality. So, the apostolic is about stepping out, the apostolic is about being sent forth or delegated. So, this thing about not just being a happy local church but considering the world as our mission field, that will happen all the more. Now, we have seen that this is nothing new. We have seen it all along. Even from the 18th century, we can talk about many missionaries when we spoke about the revival of, what is that place? Count Zinzendorf, the Moravian revival, the Moravian revival. We read that the ratio of a missionary to the number of people, it increased because it became a sending out base, the Moravian church, if you want to call it. So, what really happened? This thought process of, hey, we can meet and we can learn God's Word and we can be strengthened. Now, it went from just that to we can take what we have and we can impact the world. So, people were sent out to many different parts of the world and you can trace back the impact of the Moravian revival over people like John Wesley, William Carey, who is the father of modern missions here in India. And also, there are roots to the Welsh revival. The Moravian revival, you can kind of see the influence to the Welsh revival and then the impact of the Welsh revival on India, the northeastern part of India. There was a huge impact. So, what's happening? It's like a ripple effect and people beginning to understand that what God is pouring out in our midst, we can take it. We can go to other parts of the world and we can impact those parts of the world for the kingdom of God. So, the apostolic anointing carries that within itself, sending forth, sending out, being a delegate. So, we would see a lot more of the churches of today sending people out. So, like a local church, you might have people from the local church stepping out on missions. They'll go to different parts of India and then even going to other parts of the world, taking the truth that we've learned and imparting it into other local churches, other leaders, ministries in other parts of the world. So, to have churches like this, we'll see later, such churches are known as apostolic churches. So, in our previous course, we said that a church can grow in its understanding of the prophetic and become a prophetic church. Okay? So, similarly, a regular, if you want to call it a normal church can also become an apostolic church because that's the kind of understanding and vision which God is bringing to the people of God today. So, in the days to come, if you find that every other church around you is sending people to different parts of the world and churches are being planted there, don't be surprised because that is the apostolic anointing which God is pouring out and the understanding of the apostolic that the believers are being equipped in and therefore, taking on new territory, going to new regions of the world will just be normal. It'll just be part of the way churches function. So, this is something that we are seeing right now and we are going to see a lot more of this taking place and more intensely if I might say in the days to come. So, a global vision, even a simple church in some obscure place can have a global vision. They could be sending out men and women of impact to different parts of the world. So, that sending out mentality will emerge and we will see apostolic churches. Okay. So, as we look at several other points here, it's kind of a repetition of what we have been saying so far but one unique point that you would observe here is it says that there will be an emphasis on the truth but there will also be an emphasis on the care of the communities or people in need. So, this can be people in need financially. You could say the poor people or it can be people in need in any other way. It could be some sort of a community that has been treated, ill-treated. So, there's been some sort of an injustice towards a minority community. It could be that kind of a community. So, in these 50 trends that John Eckerd has enlisted, the other unique point here is that as we see the church emerge and a movement emerge impacting various territories, you will also see a sort of compassionate side of the apostolic where the needy will be helped. The people who have experienced injustice in some way, minorities, social injustice, you would see God touching those communities as well and doing good to the people who have experienced some kind of an evil. So, that is the only other unique point here in our list of 45 points. So, I'm not going to go through every single point else. You would think that points are being repeated time and again. So, what I would suggest is if you could please take about half an hour and just go through all these points. Tomorrow's class, I will start by answering questions from these 50 features of the emerging trends of the apostolic. I think that will be better. That way we will be more focused in addressing new aspects of the apostolic and then it will help us move on to the next few chapters in our notes as well. So, please read up and let's start with a time of questions, the first 10 minutes and then I'll go on to cover the subsequent chapters here. So, for today, I think we'll close right here since it's 9.49. I request one of us to please pray and then we can close off today's class. Would anyone like to volunteer? Okay, I'll pray again. Okay, I am hanging, please. Okay, thank you. Thank you, Father. Okay, let's pray. Heavenly Father, we thank you, Lord. We thank you that we've come to the end of this class today. We pray, Jesus, that you'll do with us until we meet again tomorrow, Lord. In the name of our Lord Jesus Christ, we pray. Amen. Yeah, thank you, Mangi. Thank you for that. And thank you, everyone, for joining today. And yeah, let's meet tomorrow. Thank you. Thank you. Bye. God bless.


They play important roles in ecosystems and provide sustenance for First Nations and licensed hunters. They are an intrinsic part of British Columbia's natural world and are appreciated by many people from near and far. Provincial wildlife biologists count moose from helicopters and monitor the number of moose harvested by licensed hunters to manage a sustainable harvest and important habitats such as moose winter range. Around 2005 surveys of moose in some areas of BC's central interior documented declining moose numbers. Some interior populations of moose are half of what they were a decade ago. The moose declines happened at the same time and in the same areas as the largest mountain pine beetle outbreak in BC history. This outbreak created salvage logging opportunities and resulted in more roads and an increase in the number and size of cut blocks. These significant landscape changes resulted in increased access for hunters and predators, reduced tree canopy protection from deep snow and altered forage quality and availability. In 2013 provincial wildlife biologists and veterinarians partnered with university researchers to begin studying how and why moose population declines could be related to human-induced landscape change. Understanding what drives moose survival is key to developing recommendations to enhance moose populations. Because cow moose are the reproductive component of the population, the research focuses on causes and rates of cow moose mortality and how a changing landscape might increase their vulnerability to mortality factors such as predation, hunting, health-related causes of death and accidents. Study areas were established outside of cam loops. Williams-like, Smithers, Prince George and Fort St. James. These areas were chosen for a gradient of landscape changes associated with mountain pine beetle pine outbreak. How do biologists determine what factors affect moose survival? They capture moose using a helicopter, attach a GPS-enabled tracking collar and collect biological samples. Samples from live and dead moose tell us about the health of the population including exposure to infectious diseases, nutritional status, stress levels and genetic relatedness. The collar data provides details on what habitats and landscape features moose use and where and when they die. To measure survival, movements of each moose are monitored. If the collar stops moving, a signal is sent via satellite to notify biologists of the mortality. When a mortality notification is received, the scene is investigated, usually within 24 hours. Prompt investigations are critical to gathering the highest quality of information to help determine the exact cause of death. Mortality site investigations are the field biology version of CSI. Biologists arrive at the scene to document the details and search for clues to explain the death. The evidence is recorded with photographs and biological samples are analyzed to determine the cause of death. The health samples collected from live and dead moose help to understand all the factors leading to the moose's death. For example, a leg bone is used to determine the fat content of the marrow. This assesses the cow's body condition. Those in poor body condition can be more susceptible to predation and health challenges. Organs and tissue samples, if available, tell biologists and veterinarians about health and the factors leading to death. After five years, biologists have collared and sampled 400 cow moose and investigated 97 mortalities. These moose died from a variety of reasons, with predation and health being the leading causes of death followed by hunting and natural accidents. Most of the cow moose that died were killed by wolves, typically very little of the carcasses left at the scene. Bones, hair, pied and stomach contents may be scattered and if the conditions are right, there will be evidence of a struggle. Although less common, bears and cougars have also killed collared cows. The second leading cause of death was what are termed health-related factors. Moose died from apparent starvation, where they were in very poor condition. In other words, very, very skinny, with no indication of trauma from predators or harvest. Apparent starvation deaths occurred in three of the five study areas. Some collared cows were harvested by hunters. In one case, there were tire tracks to the carcass in the cut block, a shell casing on the road and edible portions of the moose were removed. Some collared moose have died from natural accidents. Here, a moose died after struggling in deep mud. The lengthy and intense muscle activity caused her death from severe muscle damage, called myopathy. Cow survival rates greater than 85% are considered sufficient to support stable populations. The data shows that cow moose survival rates in BC are generally good, but survival rates have varied annually and between study areas. In some cases, survival rates are below 85%, such that low cow survival rates are likely to be contributing to population declines. So, if most survival rates of cow moose in BC are indicating generally stable populations, why are populations declining? Cows producing healthy calves are critically important to maintaining moose populations. Caves need to survive to be reproducing adults. This is called recruitment. In 2017, the research was expanded to also collar eight-month-old calves to better understand their survival and causes of death. Caves were weighed at capture. Biologists collect samples and conduct mortality investigations for calves, just like with cows. Preliminary results after following 60 calves from eight months to one year of age show that calf recruitment varies significantly between years. This is consistent with studies on deer and elk young that show high variability in survival rates between years. Through an analysis of the locations of collared moose over time, a graduate student at the University of Northern British Columbia found that cow moose select home ranges in areas with a diversity or mixture of habitats. Avoid areas with high road densities and high proportions of forest disturbance. Select areas with intermediate levels of forest disturbance and 50% mature forest. And use of cut blocks varies substantially by area and season. Moose do not select for cut blocks in dry landscapes and avoid them in the summer. Analysis of the cow and calf health data is building a baseline on overall moose population health. This includes first-time documentation of body conditions, disease exposure and stress levels. Further interpretation of health data will inform how health changes survival, resiliency, susceptibility to predation, reproductive potential, as well as guide future health sampling and management decisions. Mortality investigation and habitat use data are feeding into the detailed survival analysis that examines how landscape features help to explain mortality rates. When UNBC completes the survival analysis in 2019, specific recommendations to improve moose population and habitat management will be developed and provided to wildlife and habitat managers in BC and North America. Biologists are continuing to monitor cows and calves to better understand factors that drive population declines in BC. The team continues to collaborate with academic partners at UNBC and UVic to address a variety of key questions around moose population declines, including examining moose responses to different forest management practices that will create guidance for forest professionals to implement new practices in areas designated for moose management. Factors influencing calf recruitment, including landscape features and body condition of the cow moose. This research project continues to provide new information to guide recommendations to halt declines and enhance moose abundance. For more information, please view our 2018 Progress Report.

Some people may remember the TV show, Teladibies. It was a rather weird show, and generally disturbing. Speakers were very aware and there was a sun with a baby's face on it, plus a scary segment involving a lion and a bear, which was edited after complaints. Today I went to my local HME. The store clerk had recently got an approval in EAT. It said Teladibies lost episode, the playground. The clerk said to me that the customer who sold it was extremely upset, he said that he did not want to watch it anymore. I thought it anyway, despite the warnings about the upset customer. I slammed it into my D&D player. It skipped up a PC logo, and went straight to the intro. Either a thing was okay at first. The intro was normal until the speaker that lost supposed to say time for Teladibies said something disturbing instead. Life is not about anything, it is the consequence. I thought that was rather weird for a kids TV show. It started with Tinky Winky sitting at the table. He was rather sad and depressed, and he was crying. Not like cartoon crying, but actual real human crying. It skipped to another scene. It depicted a rather CGI looking playground, with a climbing frame that looks like the Teladibies house.  It was all via reframe. But then a sickening scene appeared. There weren't two children, but they were committing sepulchre while looking at the creepy looking slide. Blood loss tamed everywhere, along with realistic looking intestines and organs scattered across the ground. I hurled in the bathroom from this. Then I came back out and a final frost from the tubby guy by speaker wasp oaken. Life is meaningless. The truth is, is that you are all going to die from a horrifying death. No one understands it. A nuclear bomb then hit Teladibieland. The son gave him was crying, rather than its normal happy face, its face was soaked in blood. After that, a picture of the playground appeared, with the Teladibies hanging on gallows. Blood loss seeping from their necks, as they died. Behind them was the Teladibies home on flames. And the baby sung from before, but it lost shot to the ground, and it lost bleeding, of course. I wanted it again, this time onto my duvet. I don't know what a duvet is. After that the scene cut to the ending credits. But at the end instead of the rattle logo, there was a message that I couldn't understand. But luck looked like either Russian or Ukrainian. I turned it off and rang up rattle about the episode. They said that they had 237 complaints, and that it was worse than the line in their episode. They also said there was a man who worked on it called Christian Johnson. He had a friend who went to a playground, but apparently he was on drugs and was depressed to the point of committing suicide. He was a CGI artist, but he never got to complete the episode, because progress was halted when Red Bull found out what it was. It was, by mistake, sent to the NPC. They aired it without realizing the content. After just five minutes of the episode, complaints started ringing in. Parents said it was disturbing for their children and NPC took it off there immediately. Some killed himself after the NPC aired it. Fearing that life is not about anything and that it is consequence. After hearing this, I ripped up the disc and smashed it. I couldn't sleep for the whole night. I've had nightmares about it for weeks. The next morning, the doorbell rang. A man dressed up as a bloodstained teller to be appeared, and said his name lost at Goldman. The person who worked on Pindrew's punishment.


When it comes to hip-hop superstar Drake, the views from the six are always going to trump the California countryside. One of the biggest celebrities on the planet has decided to sell his last piece of property in the United States and return to Canada potentially for good. Although it hasn't been confirmed yet, all signs point to Drake decamping from America after he recently listed his sole remaining property in the country, an $88 million Beverly Hills estate. Drake originally purchased this epic 24,260-square-foot California home in the spring of 2022 for $75 million from English pop star Robbie Williams. A Tuscan-style mansion this property is situated on a 19.7-acre plot of land tucked into the hills of Benedict Canyon. It's ideal for anyone looking to maintain their privacy, located at the end of a cul-de-sac behind large gates. The surrounding countryside offers lush landscaping including an orchard, olive trees, ancient oaks, and manicured lawns. There's also stunning city, ocean, and mountain views visible from nearly everywhere. Designed by KAA associates, this mansion boasts a low-key and sleek contemporary design, boosted by rare marbles, light wood floors, arched ceilings, and large windows basically everywhere you look. Approaching the home, the first thing you'll encounter is a circular motor court with water fountains and a columned entryway that provides an elegant welcome. Once you're inside, there's a double-hay foyer with a sweeping grand staircase. A few further steps in is the home's living room, complete with not one, but two fireplaces as well as floor-to-ceiling curved windows that allow for plenty of natural lights. Thanks to its large gourmet kitchen with stainless steel appliances, marble countertops, two work islands, and a separate breakfast room, Drake likely threw more than his fair share of parties while living here, even if it was only for a short time. Whenever Drake wanted to get a bit cozier, he could head on over to his office with built-in cabinets to unwind with a stiff drink or a smooth cigar. And did I mention that this spot even has a family room that doubles as a professional screening room? However, it's Drake's bedroom that must have been his favorite spot of all. Not only does it boast a massive private terrace overlooking the backyard, but the en suite bathroom features an entire living room, walking closet, dressing room, vanity, and a marble soaking tub. Of course, since this is a celebrity estate, three extra en suite bedrooms have been provided for staff as well. There's also a hidden tennis court alongside an 11-car garage and further amenities like an elevator, wine cellar, gym, and a games room all decked out in wood with a paddleboard table that looks like the ultimate guy's room. So why is Drake leaving a zip code this great? No one seems to know for sure, but it might have something to do with the recent streak of break-ins he experienced. A 23-year-old male was arrested for trespassing and claiming Drake was his dad, then, a few months later, another guy broke in and made off with a few of Drake's belongings before police came looking. Now, here we are about a year later and all signs point to Drake leaving America behind. By now, everyone's heard of the giant palatial estate that Drake built for himself from the ground up in Toronto. Dubbed the embassy, this mansion, situated in Bridal Path, has become one of the most searched-for homes on the internet. Over the course of 2021 alone, it was googled more than one million times coming in just behind Elon Musk's home address. Drake bought the two-acre plot back in 2016 for $6.7 million and immediately unveiled plans to build a palace-like mansion that cost him a grand total of $100 million to complete. Measuring in at 50,000 square feet, Drake's home base qualifies as the definition of extravagant. Instead of drywall and upholstered furniture, Drake teamed up with Canadian architectural and interior designer Ferris Rafali to construct the home out of limestone, bronze, exotic woods, and other rare materials. When asked what he was hoping to accomplish with the design of his mansion, Drake told architectural digests, Because I was building it in my hometown, I wanted the structure to stand firm for a hundred years. I wanted it to have a monumental scale and feel. It will be one of the things I leave behind so it has to be timeless and strong. Ferris describes the home's interiors as modern art deco combined with overwhelming high-end luxury that comes across thanks to the size of the rooms as well as the materials and details used. This scale of the rooms sets the tone for everything else starting with the cavernous entry hall thanks to its solid limestone as well as inserts of marble beneath a faceted ceiling of antique mirror framed in bronze. Then, there's the epic great room with ceilings 44 feet high. At one end of the room is a concert grand piano centered within a portal comprised of Florida ceiling panels of ebony. There's also a mammoth version of the iconic Metropolitan chandelier that decorated the Metropolitan Opera House in New York back in 1963. With more than 20,000 pieces of hand-cut Swarovski crystal, this is the second largest light sculpture in the world. The art deco becomes even more obvious over in Drake's lavish canary yellow lounge. Up top this space boasts a ceiling of concentric backlit hexagonal panels wrapped in faux suede. There's also a massive glass sunburst chandelier hanging from the center. The furnishings have all been custom designed by Ferris materials that range from dyed ostrich skin and mohair to macassar and bronze. Of course, no home would be complete without a kitchen and this one is as big as you probably think with an opulent marble island and rows of navy blue chairs for Drake's company to put to use. Drake's favorite spot of all is his 3,200 square foot primary suite, which boasts an additional 1,100 square feet of covered terraces. This is where he goes to decompress every night in a bedwing roughly one ton, which costs more than most people's homes. As for the headboard, it's accented with antique mirror and channel-tufted leather. It also boasts a whiskey and champagne bar on the reverse side just in case he needs a little help to drift off. Then, the nightstands boasts mother of pearl inlays paired with bedding featuring an Alexander McQueen hummingbird tapestry. And I haven't forgotten about the bathroom. Its centerpiece is a 4,000 pound tub of facet black marble carved from a single block. When Drake finishes cleaning himself off, he can head on over to his dramatic two-story closet detailed with amethyst hardware, raw crystal, and seating upholstered in diamonds. And for those of you who aren't convinced that this home has been customized enough, Drake has also created an awards room that tells the story of his life from childhood through degrassi the next generation and onto his current reign as one of hip hop's most popular artists.  Where you can always find Drake shooting hoops. This being Drake's home, he also has a killer recording studio that he recently decided to open to the public. That's right, if you got enough cash to cover the $250,000 rate per hour, you can use all the same equipment Drake does. Just don't expect the price tag to include a feature. Now that he's on his way back home for good, Drake will be spending more time at the embassy than ever before. How long will it take before he starts looking for a new home somewhere else? We'll just have to wait and see. For now, that'll bring this latest house tour to a close. Thanks so much for watching and before you head out, consider answering the following question. Why do you think Drake is departing the United States?

I'm Karen, if you'd like to check out another tour then stay tuned because coming up is a look inside the homes of Nate Diaz. I'll see you all next time. Bye. There's no way to leave their hometown behind, but then again, most people aren't MMA fighter Nate Diaz. If there's one way to summarize a lasting effect his hometown of Stockton, California had on him, it would be the life lesson it taught him, namely always be prepared to commit to a fight. Nate's older brother Nick refers to growing up in Stockton as a curse, but Nate's is grateful that it helped him develop his kill or be killed attitude and he represents the city of his birth with more pride than most. He popularized a humiliating maneuver to inflict upon his opponents known as the Stockton Slap. He's also ensured that the city's area code 209 is now as infamous as he himself is. UFC commentator John Annick even had those very numbers tattooed on his arm after losing a poorly made bet against Diaz in one of his fights. Historically speaking, the city of Stockton has dealt with a very high crime rate. Other than just that, it's also one of the largest US cities to ever declare bankruptcy. With all of that going on his backdrop, Diaz grew up in a small one-story house in Lodi, which is just a little bit north of Stockton. He lived there with his mother, older brother and sister, but his father wasn't around much during his childhood.  He once told ESPN, It's not necessarily we were sitting in the middle of violence, we were just very aware of everything. If someone was getting into it, there was a fight, you would see fights all the time. When Nate was around 13, his older brother began learning how to defend himself, spending most of his time training out of the city's animal house gym, while Nate worked as a cook at the restaurant next door. Eventually, Nate joined his brother in training. More than just that, he became an integral part of it. In fact, whenever Nick would have friends come over to their house to challenge him to a fight, he would tell them to try and tap Nate out first. Most of the time, these older dudes couldn't even come close to choking the then 15-year-old Nate out.     Nate eventually followed in his brother's footsteps, and by the time he successfully won the Ultimate Fighter V competition, he thought that he finally had it made and would be able to buy luxury homes and super-fast cars, but it didn't quite work out that way. The prize for winning the competition was a six-figure contract. The problem was Nate didn't realize he wasn't being paid that money in a big lump sum. Instead, it was to be spread out across multiple fights. Not realizing this, Nate walked into the wrong automobile dealership looking for a top-of-the-line car and wound up walking out with the only thing he could actually afford, a small Honda Civic. Following that purchase, he only had a couple thousand dollars to his name, which meant he wasn't going to be able to buy a house for his mom like he planned at first.  But once Nate Diaz became the first person in the UFC to defeat Connor McGregor in 2016, his prospects picked up. He not only began making a ton of money, he's since made sure to take care of his family too. Believe it or not, but Nate Diaz has never moved away from Stockton, California. In fact, he still lives there to this day. It might not be recognized as the safest place to live, but Diaz wouldn't want to call anywhere else home. Property records suggest that Nate bought his estate back in 2011, paying at the time the reasonable amount to $430,000. Originally built in 1995, the exterior of this three-bedroom, two-and-a-half-bath residence gives us a very 90s vibe. As for the inside, and it's over 3,200 square feet of space, well, that's a little bit harder to see because Nate has been careful to not reveal much. More or less, that just leaves us with what we can see from the outside. And it's pretty evident that the community Nate lives in is both charming and peaceful, which is probably why he never felt the need to leave. Out back, the home is distinguished by its ample 1.49 acres of land as well as a lavish pool and an extra large patio that's perfect for entertaining alongside some alfresco dining. And don't even worry about privacy because thanks to the wrought iron fence that surrounds the property as well as some strategically planted trees, no one will be peering in from the outside, especially not around the backyard. While not much has been revealed about the interior of Nate's home, what I was able to uncover was something almost as interesting. Details on the part of his estate that he uses more than any other. His drop house. Sitting directly across from Nate Diaz's main property is a small two bedroom guest house where Nate and his teammates regularly gather to chat, smoke up, and watch fights from YouTube on the big screen.  Nate's childhood home is less than a five minute drive from where he lives today.  At this point in his career, Nate has made millions of dollars and he's used a lot of it to secure homes for his family members as well as himself without staying too far away from his roots. There's even a nice apartment building known as the University Lofts in downtown Stockton where Nate will regularly put up his teammates and coaches when they arrive from out of town. If they're not already staying at the trap house that is. For instance, Luciano Ramos, a band time wait fighter from Argentina, showed up at Nate's gym three years ago. A few months later, Nate's team was partying when someone tried to pick a fight with Diaz. So Ramos stepped in and knocked the guy out with one punch. After that Diaz let Ramos stay at the trap house free of charge and he's lived there ever since. The living room of this trap house is more or less a glorified man cave complete with a desktop computer playing clips of Mike Tyson highlights, frame pieces of art as well as colorful illustrations that show Albert Einstein, Jeff Bezos, as well as logos of companies like Netflix, NASA, Facebook and Instagram. There's also a ton of 420 friendly stuff including a bonk, backwards, rolling papers and lighters.  Diaz chose his Einstein poster because this image of one of the world's smartest men is symbolic of how he used martial arts to lift himself up out of poverty and become an elite athlete. He believes that like Einstein he saw something others didn't, namely his own market value. There's no denying that Nate Diaz has been able to completely transform his life and it's even crazier to think he's done so without having left his hometown. So whether Nate emerges victorious from his upcoming fight with Jake Paul or not, don't expect him to start looking for a new place to live anytime soon. That's because Nate Diaz has known where he's belonged from the moment he was born. Alright everyone, that's going to bring this house tour to a close. Thank you so much for watching and before you head out, consider answering the following question. What's the one thing about your hometown that would have made you want to stay? Let me know what made the place you grew up special to you in the comments below. Otherwise, like, subscribe and turn on your notifications to make sure you never miss an episode.

Our main message is a simple one and that's agriculture and food systems have a central role to play in tackling climate change. Agri-food system solutions can help countries with their efforts to adapt to climate change, to build resilience to climate change, to mitigate emissions, to reduce their emissions of greenhouse gases, while at the same time addressing their many food security challenges. So our message is we have solutions to tackle climate change. Supporting as always the official UNFCCC process, the negotiation process. It's a very important process because it brings the discussion on agriculture on food system and it gives us the opportunity to talk about the solutions that this sector offers for climate within the official process of negotiations. We're also support the one on loss and damage and the establishment of the loss and damage fund. We're going to go to COP already equipped with an analysis that shows what loss and damage means to food systems, what loss and damage means to the communities that depend on agriculture and food systems as a way of keeping up the momentum to building towards this fund that is being discussed and to redirecting investments to really where they're needed to the most vulnerable. Agroforestry, soil restoration, sustainable livestock management, food loss and waste, energy smart agriculture, all of these solutions have been identified and to some degree tested. So there's a lot of room for climate investments that help scale up agrofood system solutions to climate change. For example, soil regeneration and soil restoration. About a third of agricultural land is currently degraded. You can imagine the potential of restoring a third of agricultural land in terms of food security but also in terms of then building resilience, adaptation and of course mitigation of emissions. The same goes for what we can do in sustainable livestock management and sustainable fisheries and aquaculture. We have a lot of projects and initiatives across FAO that have showcased these solutions but what we haven't seen yet is the investments being scaled up to a level that matches. We have an array of projects and initiatives. One amazing partnership we have is with the global environment facility, the GEF. We're working with around 130 countries to implement solutions that exactly address food security and environment at the same time. Putting a lot of land on the sustainable management has meant the mitigation of gigatons of emissions while at the same time improving food security and most importantly improving livelihoods through green jobs, through to some degree better nutrition for the communities dependent on those lands, on the agriculture, on the farms especially small-scale farmers. Our partnership with the Green Climate Fund has also helped countries access over a billion dollars to address climate, biodiversity and food security all at the same time. We have other interventions like through our plant treaty, interventions that help to for example test out drought-resistant seeds to test out what works in different contexts, in different countries and to enable farmers to build their own resilience, the resilience of their crops to what is clearly a changing climate.

Short on time, but want to maximize your gym performance and gains watch this our next caller is Felix from Louisiana Felix what's going on man? How can we help you? Hey, first off. I wanted to say thank y'all really appreciate the opportunity. I show this question, but One of the questions I wanted to ask you is I'm kind of running through the maps maps aesthetics right now and The program does take a good bit of time About 90 minutes if I do all of the movements and exercises and sets and so forth and I'm currently I'm a dad of four and so time is a you know, not a lot of it So I'm trying to condense the workouts down and I was wondering if Using super sets is something that is recommended or or you can do in a Maps program and I've seen some of the programs and only a few use super sets or they use some Agonist super sets not antagonists and so forth and so I was just kind of interested to see which I'll stop for To cut down on time length of the program or just move removing movements altogether So it's curious about super setting exercises in the program. I know you don't ideally want to edit programs. So yeah No, well actually ideally you do want to modify programs to fit your individual body and needs However, it's a good idea to go through the programs first the way that they're laid out and then start to because here's a deal We create programs for the masses So it's never gonna be as good as an individualized workout Okay, that being said you got to figure it out and learn how your body responds and don't just change the programming on the Fly because anytime you change the programming you run the risk of making the program less effective again that being said You might be in a situation where you got to do that anyway And so it's okay sacrificing some of the programming because it just doesn't work with your with your schedule kids are more important Yeah, so, you know, that's okay. I would say this you're probably better off Just shortening the rest times overall rather than doing super set super setting is more of a program change Then you know cutting some of the rest period short. You could also try something like this You know maps aesthetic is a three full body day workout and then you have focus sessions You could try saving some of the exercises for the focus session. That's a hundred percent what I would do I mean the focus sessions are only like 20 30 minutes long So what I've done with clients that don't want to miss anything that's in the program is hey take two or three of those Exercises on the foundational days move them over to your focus days And then you'll still end up hitting everything you want also The reason why to I think Sal's not recommending to super set right now because that might be an option another program This program actually has that so you I think it's phase three Phase three you're gonna get into a lot of super sets and the idea is that you it's it's novel when you get into that So you don't want to be doing it for the entire program Not that we couldn't and then the then the other thing is also I don't know if you have any other programs But there's other programs that are probably a little more conducive for you know a dad who's got a lot on his plate Yeah, and I mean you can you can build an incredible physique running maps anabolic and that's only a three day a week Type of a program. I just I think we all tend to go towards the one that you know Is that the bodybuilder inspired or changing aesthetics? Yeah, and you know think that you need to train six days a week in the gym And it's just not true.  I like that a lot Yeah, I would just clear of like yet changing the kind of adaptation we're seeking So that's like the if we're doing super set we have that intentionally in phase three So you focus on that but like in terms of you know, if it's a time issue, you know kind of scaling back and maybe Taking a bit of the volume out but but sticking with the same type of you know rest and in rep range Yeah, and now you didn't mention super sets with agonist antagonists. So yeah So my background so I was a personal trainer for six eight years and then I made a career change And so I've always understood I think I've seen y'all talk about compound sets or super sets That my mind always was super sets could be antagonists or Agonist muscles and so I was thinking with this more so not so much the same muscle groups But doing you know like a chest back. Yeah for the sake of saving time Yeah, that's more of what I was thinking and you know the reason why I chose maps black It's because I've always been a performance driven person sports athletics and so I wanted to try something I've never I've never done any type of body building program ever and so I wanted to try something different Yeah, good and that's why I chose this one. So yeah Well Felix, okay with considering your background Which means you know, you know some stuff and what you said about antagonists super sets or you know Otherwise notice maybe compound sets. Yeah, that's less of a program change than a super set for the same body part That's strategy at all. Yeah. So I do that sometimes the only challenges your stamina, you know Might be a bit of an issue but going from bench press to barbell row Is very different than bench press to fly right for yeah, so yeah, you can definitely do that You can definitely try that out. It doesn't change the programming or the adaptation Nearly as much as a super set for the same body part and again, I do that sometimes where I'll go Back chest back chest, you know bicep tricep bicep tricep, you know type of deal Okay, and as far as other programs go just curious for a dad For what would be some of the other ones? Maybe you would recommend to run after this Maps at a block or map strong. I bet you would love map strong That is a great that is such an underrated great program for building muscle with your athletic background, too I think you'll love it. Mm-hmm. Okay. Okay. I appreciate that Do you have by the way? Do you have access to map strong? So I'll just give it to you I just purchased it during New Year. So well, you're all set. What about my ball? Let me give you something What do you got? I do not have maps. I do not have maps and a ball Anabolic is another great one. I mean, that's a three-day routine and it you know being a busy dad myself I tend to fall back on that one a lot. I think all of us do to be honest I think I think that's a common program for all of us. Yeah, I'll send that over to you, right? I appreciate that guys. Thanks Felix. All right. Thank y'all. You got it. I like this question Because this is cut this it was neat because obviously he knew what he's doing, right? He's not like completely newbie at all And I think we have the people have this idea that you have to follow the programs to a tee and We actually and we don't say it as much we used to say a lot when we first started that we recommend that you modify You run through it one time as close to it as possible And then you start to to modify it for you your body your time all these things and Really all the suggestions that we said and he said none of them are wrong, right, you know It's really just it's playing around with that and seeing what works best for you and you know Yes, the programs are best I think ran if you run it to a tee, but let's be on none of us do that I mean nobody in here pulls out their phone and runs maps anabolic or aesthetic it exactly how it's laid out most of us Follow the programming and then modify it a little bit how it is. Yeah, I think there's this There's this conflict that people have which is I want to do the most effective possible programming For my goal, but they don't put in their goal their lifestyle, which well my goal is also I got to be at it here in 60 minutes Maybe I'm more tired or I have pain in this particular joint or you know, here's a muscle group I want to develop a little bit more like that's all part of your goal So modifying your workouts means optimizing your workout for all of that not just like what's the best for? Bodybuilding or what's the best for you know body sculpting or performance You got to look at all of it and that's okay There's trade-offs, but there's nothing wrong with that because like like with Felix, you know He's got he doesn't have a lot of time. He's got kids. So that's part of it So is he gonna build less muscle as a result and maybe who cares like this is obviously important to him So change the workout. Yeah, it's well it kind of highlights one of those parts of our business That we we started to work on and people don't really understand that we have like Modifications available to like if you have different types of pursuits and you want to be able to incorporate those within our main staple programs We do have maps mods and you know, that's something that we are planning on expanding upon as well But yeah, it's we our intention was always to be able to integrate You know your specific needs and make it more individualized. You know the best we could Hey, if you enjoyed that clip you can find the full episode here Or you can find other clips over here and be sure to subscribe You
