Hey Jake from Cali lock it Henry rugs. Oh my god. You guys see that right there? Look at that. Oh Wow, it feels like It's like it's oils or something actually, I know that's weird I'm sure you can easily wipe that off though. Actually. I thought it was like a mark, but it's like it's just like oils Maybe it's easy to come off, but Henry rugs Radice. Yeah, there you go, man Looks like it's just like some type of oil Jerry Judy Raiding cooks out of 79 Jacob Eason Glad Edwards E-Lair DK Mackah Yonte Johnson and another Henry rugs this time. It's a color disco out of 79 blue Sammy Watkins and a chase young negative well, that's Be very debatable, but I can see it happening only because It took how many weeks for for For Herbert to win his first game. I Guess my thing is you win in this league Your prices go up like we all know Herbert's a great quarterback and he has the potential right to be a long-term Quarterback, but I Feel like the perfect example now if once kind of falls off and doesn't really recuperate and get signed with another team or like that Is that he was she showed so much potentials Ricky here in the second year. He just exploded and then Some injuries kind of just derailed them We can't really predict anybody to be anybody to be a Future quarterback for years to come unless you're Patrick Mahomes Like I said, I think her word stuff is still gonna be much more expensive Duvante Adams Harold Landry Danny amandola Deandre Swift and Dendo memes. I don't know about that Tony If the Rams have to face the Chiefs in the Super Bowl, it ain't gonna happen That's a big gift though, Tony. Goff has not looked like himself either this year That's like having like that's like having Nick Vols come in and just dominate weekend and week out I don't think anybody would have predicted that Yeah, I Think God was gonna have to play like Nick Vols did against the Vikings and Patriots to To win the Super Bowl Tony Bologna, man Miles Boykin Evan Ingram. He doesn't though not by far They don't call him what I don't want to say over air for a reason right Stefan Diggs Yuto Grossmottos very nice Carolina Panthers gonna Paul Harris Jordan Love Michael Pima, Jr. No, I mean I've said it before but no I Knew that they had a chance to maybe go to the Super Bowl and I thought maybe they'd win the first week Maybe lose the NFC championship game, but I mean when when Vols took over for for wands. It's a little shaky man. I Didn't think the Eagles were gonna go that far but After that Falcons win, which he played kind of horrible to that they won Everything changed because Something clicked. I don't know. I don't know what happened but something clicked and they just murdered the Minnesota Vikings after the first quarter and then Even though Tom Brady threw for like 500 yards on my Eagles defense I still think Nick Vols product might have outperformed them still which rarely would ever happen if a history So, I don't know their defense was good enough though and the play calling was great That was a straight-up magical year Hey, what's up, Juan? How's it going man? Dude, he was messed up Dude, he was so messed up. He's like, oh, I custom Like take them up there. Yeah.  He's been as a Seahawks fan his whole life since like the 80s 70s and 80s actually I should say and When they won their first Super Bowl Against the Denver Broncos what he did was he took shots for every time they scored a field goal or a touchdown So that's legit what I did. Honestly I'm not kidding. I'm a big guy It does take a lot for it for me to go down and to get really really messed up But I took a shot for every touchdown or field goal and I think by the end of the night I was like a eight or nine But I did not feel nothing because I was just so nervous watching this game that like my body was just totally fine But man once they won that game and like my I was just relieved of all the stress that had inside me Man, I don't think I remember the night But like legit watching that game was crazy Jared Pinkney out of 50 and Jonathan Taylor Little JK Domins, yeah, no, that's Super Bowl nuts. I always love to re-watch it too because it's just such a crazy game Just back and forward toe-to-toe All the Eagles needed to do is one turnover And Eric Barnett are sorry.

I am here to remind you that everything is going to work out perfectly for you. That in some way that we cannot currently imagine, perhaps you are being taken care of in such a deep way and guided by a power that's higher than your individual limited consciousness. I don't know if you believe that. I hope you can imagine that possibility and feel into what that feels like. It is a place of deep well-being. It is a place of joy and each time you come back to that possibility, each time you tap into that spark of joy, you expand it and make it slightly easier for you to feel that again the next time. And I hope that before you do your work for the day, even before you do your work for the hour, that you'll just take a moment to return to that place of joy and that knowingness of profound well-being. No matter what's going on around you, no matter what's happening in your life or in your work, that all will become well. That all is profoundly well and that one day you will fully understand it all. From that place, if you do your work from there, then no matter what the results are, you can still enjoy your work. You don't have to make other people do certain things. You simply do your work from a place of giving and service. Your efforts, your energy, your time, your skills are given to others as an expression of service and of exploration and of joy. And however they respond is their business. It is simply your business to keep on sharing your gift, your skills, your contribution from the deepest place of well-being that you can.


Welcome to Mind Pump. We are the top fitness, health, entertainment podcast in the world.  This is a Q&A episode. We call it QUA. This is where we answer people's fitness and health questions. But the way we open the episode is by talking about current events. We catch up with each other. Sometimes we mention our sponsors. I'm going to give you the breakdown of what went down in today's Mind Pump podcast. So we opened up by talking about government stupidity. They're shutting down bus lines over here in San Jose. Only going to make other buses more crowded with more people potentially getting more people sick. Not surprising.  Also in a recent episode we totally fell for an April Fool's joke from Quest. They said they were making a high protein seltzer in a hard water or whatever. Apparently that's fake news. Thanks Adam. Totally fooled Adam. And then of course because we trust them we fell for it as well. Thanks again buddy. Then we talked about the howling people at night. Apparently this is spreading like crazy. Adjusting saying that at 8 o'clock at night people are howling out their window to ensure the support for first responders and the people on the front line. So let's get all the pump heads doing it. Yeah let's let's all howl at night. I guess at 8 p.m. that's kind of cool. Howl at the moon. Then we talked about 24 hour fitness getting sued.  And now they may be paying the price. I talked about the increase in processed food consumption. It's over 25% increase. That makes sense. People want to buy things with long shelf life and let's be honest when you want to be comforted does anything better than a bag of chips. Not really. Then we talked about our company that we work with Organify. Now we're not talking about how awesome their supplements are. We actually talked about how awesome they are. But they are. With their charity. They've been sending care packages to health care workers with their green juice and their gold juice and their pure and other products. Now Organify makes some of the best organic supplements out there. Protein powders and like I said earlier green juice. Gold juice is a red juice that's great for you know before you work out with no caffeine stimulant free.  Make sure you go check them out. It's Organify.com. That's O-R-G-A-N-I-F-I.com forward slash mind pump. And you'll get 20% off with the code mind pump. Then we talked about a local business Red Dot Fitness here in San Jose. That is doing shout out to Scott. They are doing COVID-19 antibody tests FDA approved antibody tests. So that's awesome that they're doing that. And we can't wait for more companies to be doing this because it'd be great to know how many people have had this infection and have healed from it. Then we talked about dogs and groceries. Apparently they're starting to deliver some groceries for us. Dogs are the best. They're the best. They're always there for us. He can't be dogs. I mentioned how Jeff Bezos donated a hundred million dollars to food banks. That's really really cool. We talked about Bernie Sanders dropping out of the presidential race.  No more socialism we're going to do. Wow wow. Then we talked about a company that we work with PRX. PRX makes the best at home workout equipment. Now they're most known for their squat racks that fold into the wall. They're amazing. Low profile, very sturdy, high quality squat racks. But they also have bars, plates, dumbbells. I mean they have a lot of home gym equipment. Right now gyms are closed. So their sales are going through the roof. We recommend you go check them out. If you're looking for at home weights and gym equipment. If you want to get the mind pump hookup go to prxperformance.com forward slash mind pump.  He was so cute. So so cute. With his gangly teeth. Then we got into answering the fitness questions. The first question is is there a rule of thumb one should go by when they're writing and creating their own workout programming. The next question this person wants to know how quickly you lose muscle mass when you can't lift heavy when you're stuck at home and you only have 10, 20 pound dumbbells bands and your body weight. Next question this person is asking a specific question about maps anywhere. They're following our at home workout program that requires very little equipment. They're finished with the four week program and they want to know how to progress. So we give advice if you have maps anywhere we're kind of we talk about how to continue progressing with the program but if you still can't go to the gym. But there's also advice in there for people who don't follow maps anywhere. Like how do you continue progressing with your program? How are ways you can modify it so that your body continues to get stronger, build more muscle, build have more mobility. In other words just get better. And the final question this person wants to know what accessory exercises and movements can really help with increasing deadlift weight getting the weight of their deadlift to go up. Let's accessorize. Also this month two of our most popular correctional exercise programs Maps Prime and Maps Prime Pro are both 50% off. Now first off both of these programs require zero equipment. Okay you need no equipment to do these whatsoever just your body. Let me tell you the difference between the two programs. Maps Prime there's a self-assessment tool within the program. Follow that and that will direct you and tell you what you need to do to prime your body for your workouts. Like a flow chart to success. So what you know what's priming? Well priming is it's like a warm-up but much more individualized. Proper priming gets you more connected to your muscles improves your range of motion and makes your current workout far more effective. Really really good trainers do this with their clients. This is what we do with our clients and it's really makes a huge difference in terms of your progress and results. Now Maps Prime Pro that's purely correctional. So with Maps Prime Pro you go in there and you work on specific areas of your body that you need better connection mobility work on. Let's say you have shoulders that tend to bother you. Go on Maps Prime Pro take the shoulder mobility test. That'll help you pick what mobility movements and what correctional exercise movements you could do for your shoulders. But it also goes with your back. It works on your hips, your ankles, your hands, your wrists, neck. It works on the whole body. So again both those programs 50% off no equipment required. Here's how you get the discount. Go to mapsfitnessproducts.com and then use the code Prime 50. That's P-R-I-M-E-5-0 no space for the discount. You got your taxing medallion. Uber comes out. Oh yeah. Fuck. That's what I did do that. Bro. Imagine if you just got your medallion and that and Uber rolls out. Do you know what they were selling for? Yeah like it's like a million right? They were. You had to have parking lots right now like they're opening that up right? It was a million right? I think so. You had to have a million liquid to do it just like McDonald's. Bro the medallions were so expensive. And they were hard to come by. The value of them went from like a million bucks each to a hundred grand. You couldn't sell them. Nobody wanted to buy them because Uber. I think they dropped like literally from a million to like a hundred grand.  The whole reason why it was expensive the first place was it was super regulated. Now has it completely has Uber overran everywhere yet? I know there was still states that were trying to legislate and keep it from coming in. And I know there was they went back and forth like in New York back and forth in Texas. I think do you know is yeah there's still there's states and is there pockets still the cities that say no. But it's you know I like what's that term I say it's like putting the toothpaste back in the tube. It's out. I know that there's a member we've been places where we float like air certain airports. You know they make like the the uber and lifts like the redhead stepchild. They have to go somewhere else like the taxis get still get because they have they have you know partnerships.  Government right. Yeah you got to love that.  So angry.  Here's the problem the big problem with central planning is it's super short-sighted. And a lot of what they pass is like feel good laws or laws that that sound like they should be helpful. Isn't it always. I'll give you an example. Okay New York City is like they would call the epicenter of the coronavirus pandemic in the U.S. They have the most cases. It's you know by far right. I think they're like a hundred and something thousand cases and the next highest is like in the tens of thousands right. So what does New York do they shut down certain subway lines and bus lines. Okay because they're short-sighted. Here's what politicians are thinking. We need to shut some of these down because we got to prevent people from whatever. Because they're highly trafficked. Yeah here's what ended up happening. Everybody goes to those one places that are open. That's right because people still need to move and travel and those buses and in subways that were remained open far more packed than ever before. People are posting pictures of how they're they're wearing masks and gloves and they're staying next to each other and they're like this is the only train.  Okay I feel like though there's got to be more to the story when things like that because there can't I mean and I know people are going no government can be that stupid but there's got to be to get to that level you have to have a certain level of education experience and knowledge right to get to that level to where you can help pass laws and there's and it takes a team of people it's not just one person gets to pass a law right. We have to just go through all kinds of legislation in order for that to happen. So you mean to tell me that nobody raised a hand and said hey you know if we close down it might happen. Right like nobody like really if it doesn't make sense to me. Well if it sounds good and if it's an emergency you want your your voters to see that you're doing something and they're just passing things very quickly. Really though really though. Dude are you kidding me. They always the laws are constantly being passed that achieve the opposite result constantly because they sound good. See I have more of a I don't know.   I think I don't think they're all owned by the state. So I mean that's I mean I'm just saying that as an example.  I get that. But my point is that somebody is benefiting from it. I just don't see it being that you everyone being so naive that you don't know that's going to happen. Sometimes the benefit is you look like you're doing something. So now now that's a fair one acting.  So the reason why I also pissed off is because we you know I come in here and there's a sign because there's a there's a transit bus stop right outside of our our facility and there's a sign there due to COVID-19 we are going to be discontinuing certain bus routes and lines and we're only going to keep certain ones open. Exact same things going to happen.  What they should do if you want to be smart what you should do you know okay of course they're saying essential workers all stuff keep that the same. Have way more have way more buses come by so that instead of having 15. Okay so I'm going to challenge that though. So you have to understand that there everybody is in a economical pinch right now. So the buses that aren't getting people that have three people on them which is you're seeing this right now that are running they're losing money on the gas and the person that the bus driver to drive those so they also have to think if we're going to keep this going that we have to figure something out there too so it's not just the safety of the community and what's smart with that it's also after thinking about how do we keep operating without having to completely shut down because we can't afford to run all this. Well I get what you're saying and I'm not saying that that's what you should do I'm just saying that makes more sense than discontinuing a bunch of bus lines for the reason of virus and make it spread faster. Does it though I mean does it I mean that when you're talking about just COVID but when you talk about that if you kept operating the way you're operating with this many bus lines this many people being staffed and losing bleeding money every single day you could potentially cripple the whole entire thing. Well again maybe but my point is if the reason is for COVID to keep people safe then you're doing it wrong if that's the reason. I by just think there's another. Oh look I'll give you an example of another great example so because of the ways that the regulations are being done with the airline industry airlines are flying empty planes in order to maintain keep their spots in order to keep their to get their government money.  Right so I don't think it's a money saving uh I don't think they're thinking to themselves this is how we're going to save money. Well our bus is getting bailouts the same way planes are uh if not then sure it does make sense.  Uh I I don't know how many of them are closing I don't know how many of them are shutting down. I just think it's again I know I know companies that know that they they are going to qualify for like the loan for all their employees and they're operating negatively right now because they know they can run it on a credit card or they know exactly that they're going to get relief and then you have other people that are maybe small business owners that aren't sure if they're going to get relief or not and they're having to make different pivots so it's I guess well look I'll give you another another great example right so San Jose uh they tried to pass an ordinance that said that uh that land land owned landlords would could uh would not be charging rent for like a month or two so they were going to pass this thing that said everybody doesn't have to pay rent for a month or two which this happened in Washington it did and now here's why that's stupid I'll tell you why that's stupid sure that some people are going to be helped but I know lots of people who could afford to pay rent don't have issues won't also pay it also kicks the can down the road because the the landlord has to pay their mortgage and their rent uh they have their bills to pay so it just goes up and up and up and eventually the taxpayers are going to pay for it anyway a smarter approach would be this your own property if your person can't pay you rent and you deal with it yourself you talk to your your tenants yourself if they can't pay you then we'll give you a tax break because it's your money anyway you know taxes are your money anyway no I like that that makes a lot of sense to me but even though you kick the can all the way up don't you just relieve the banks at the end I mean that's because that's who relieves the banks yeah of course we do indirectly right so another note uh we've got the uh gray memo today what we're all uh we're all right that was a curve ball right there yeah I was like oh man uh we're uniformed out today it just goes to good looks the show that we're all connected yeah yeah hive mind by the penis yeah I um I did want to ask you something Adam hmm when you bring up topics on the show oh god do you get the fuck out of here this listen to you listen here listen Linda listen do you check all right when we all bought in on this yeah first of all we all got bam listen listen first of all kudos to quest for brilliant advertising you got me to talk about it in more than one space probably so I don't know how many just because of my mouth full things are so dumb yeah hey listen though you know what though kuda I love I love brilliant advertising so here I'm going to go from talking shit about quests I'm going to flip it right around and I'm going to change my story and say brilliant company you've got someone like me some asshole to they sent me an email bro it wasn't like I was like Google searching and I really have to read that article I'm on their email list so I watched the emails they send out anyway like high protein alcohol and they sent a email to me it wasn't like uh so you want to know what's funny what so believable when when we were talking about it it is believable so when we're when we're talking about in the podcast so the listeners might not know this is that uh Doug will oftentimes pull up an article about what we're talking about or show us a picture so we have something to reference the article that Doug pulled up with the picture was an article that said it was an April Fool's joke we still didn't we still didn't pay attention he did yes did you know that I no actually I didn't even see that yeah so are you sure that's yeah I don't think he did say that though it did you look back and oh how funny is that we had just your fault we just steam rolled Doug's fault too you know what though sorry I I love I love love love love creative marketing and that's creative right there very very creative because it's the same reason why we were talking shit about it they I'm sure they even laughed about the idea and said you know it's some people are gonna believe this and it was believable and you they're not the someone someone sent me I think the person who actually sent me the DM bangs already trying to make it happen and he speaks I was gonna say some companies it's not a joke yeah some companies have actually done it so or tried to do it in the past someone told me but I just that was great and I got had dude I hope all of us whole bamboo line sinker they got me and kudos to them well the main reason why I'm enough to be believable well that's it the reason why I I think I totally fell for is because it's not out of the realm of you know potential reality well they got me because they went to my email if I found some whenever I find anything that's like just like sent to me or you know googled like that I just came across I only go to snopes right especially if it's crazy like like we're like that's stupid I don't believe it like snopes is like the next place they go right afterward just to double check I'm not gonna talk about something stupid because they got me in my email I just didn't question it yeah I just oh okay this is real they're marketing to me right now you know it's funny I wonder how much sucks being had though I wonder how many people listening to the podcast heard us talking shit and they were thinking like oh that's cool I know and they went to the web for sure I want to order some I'm gonna buy some well that's just it you know that I mean I would love to hear from quest maybe we have somebody who's listening that works for them I would love to hear what the internet traffic was after that that whole April Fool's joke because if you know obviously if it got everybody to head over there it was it probably drove a shit ton of websites oh did you guys do some howling I did eight o'clock did you yeah what did you text us last night oh I should remind you guys yeah no my my kids and I all we open the window and like we were listening and it got louder like people more people are contributing I guess there's gonna be a whole write-up about it you know for our area I guess it's it's it's it's in a lot more places New York I think it's another place they're doing it in your red net magazine yeah yeah and people even people been DMing me about it too like I guess it's for uh they're they're shouting out to like first responders and people out there like still trying to like uh you know active people like trying to help and so it's like kind of like a shout out to them or whatever and so I was like oh okay that's cool I just thought it was a bunch of no this is happening all over I've actually read a bunch of articles and seen like some people people are going out at certain times day and they're just applauding you know that that too apply yeah yeah you're you're you're seeing this all over which is really cool man again it just it speaks to what uh you know I was talking about the other day that I'm seeing now that's just really cool it's really cool to see you know everybody come together now somebody reigned on my parade uh after I said that on the last podcast and DM you know Adam if you remember this is how we all were right after 9 11 and then it wasn't very long till we all went back to being assholes again so we got we just kind of reminded yeah you just gotta get reminded dude it's you you fall into a pattern you get spoiled uh things become easy you start to forget to be grateful for certain things and then every once in a while some shit happens and you know that's it speaking of news Justin okay 24 hour fitness getting sued oh class action lawsuit coming their way yay for chart they have over 4 million members that they are billing they were billing still what bad decision and I'm telling you right now it's the fucking smells like smells fishy to me because when I went on there to cancel because we talked about this the first time uh I think it was a GM or a DM who works for the company who also listens to our show reached out to me and said Adam we're handling it here's a link to cancel your membership I said oh thanks bro click on the link to go cancel my membership ask for my birthday and ask for my phone number I put those two things in which by the way okay my birthday it's never changed my phone number has been the same since I was 17 years old I haven't one of those people who've had the same cell phone number since cell phones came out forward error 555 error and it says air and then it's not right and so and then it says that I have to like shenanigans send this long email to someone else and go somewhere else and then it just it made it a pain in the ass to do it I'm like you know what well bad behavior man it's going to catch up to you look at that oh class action they're gonna be on sale again all right how many times they pass the change hands holy cow it's sad to see because uh you know I started at 24 our fitness I think in 1997 and

became 24 our fitness and they were the leaders they weren't just the leaders in uh you know locations and in you know production but they led the gym space they were the ones that that really led the gym space and EFT so now now everybody's membership gets charged automatically 24 our fitness was one of the first companies they weren't the first but they were one of the first to adopt it and then make it widespread which by the way revolutionized the gym industry it completely it made it profitable before that was very difficult what do you mean they weren't the first they were the first they I don't think they were the first to do EFT yes no they were one of the first oh I don't know anybody that was doing it before yeah well they were they were there were gyms that were messing with it

turning point they also I mean when I was there the people I worked with were talented so much talent talented every one of the guys that were friends of mine that worked that made it like obviously a job like that there's a high turnover rate too right like you see some people come in like I'm not counting those people but all the good general managers fitness managers if you made it if you made it into a leadership role in that company and in any fashion even if you weren't like a head of the gym even if you were just an assistant if you were there for a couple years and made it into leadership you are and you're not there anymore all those successful all successful all of them all of them make north of six figures great jobs great careers I learned so much in that environment because of the people I worked under and worked for and of course it starts at the top Mark Mark Mastroff was the guy that started it and he's just the guy anybody who ever talked to who's worked with the guy will tell you what an amazing leader he is so it's sad it's sad to see 24 fitness you know they they they were they've it's been a long road they've been kind of going down this this road for a long time spiral in a bit yeah and so now to see this it's like oh that company you know went in that direction anyway so uh processed food consumption it's up over 23 percent right of course yeah that's not surprising to me well you know the pop tarts floating around it's not just that so I think one of the main reasons why it's going up number one people want to eat comfort food a little bit more but also I think it just because the shelf life is high and I don't know about you guys I used to go grocery shopping almost every day I'm one of those kind of people I like to go for what I need for the day yeah get my if I need some steak if I need whatever I'll get it fresh vegetables fresh fruit I like to do that but now it's such an ordeal because you show up probably a line sanitize six feet one direction whatever it's just along you to take your stuff back sanitize everything or whatever that I go now once I try to go once a week or less and so I'm more likely to buy processed foods because they last you know canned foods or whatever they last a long time but I'll say this if you if you're like I am and you're getting more of this food there are better processed food choices you can get you know choices that are a little bit better than the you know the typical garbage or whatever speaking of companies speaking of of good leadership and processed foods all these things just reminded me of a dm that I got yesterday and I have to read it uh because I didn't know about this this person actually thought we are aware and I wasn't aware of this it prompted me actually to text message drew cannoli afterwards and just to tell him I think he's doing a hell of a job and this is what I got so this dm I got says hey mine pump crew is actually I think believe all of you yeah hey mine pump crew just wanted to let you guys know real quick about a little promotion organifies doing I'm sure you are aware already which we are not however they are sending care packages to frontline healthcare workers through this covid ordeal I'm a medical laboratory scientist working in transfusion medicine in Chicago Illinois they ended up sending me over 90 single serve packets of gold juice green juice and pure all for free this absolutely just sold me on the organifi as a company absolutely incredible them to do something like this and good on you guys for working with such an amazing company keep up the great work and keep the amazing content going been a huge fan for a few years now take care killers so great I thought that was so rad I think that's so great perfect move and it's what I even the fact that we advertise for them and they this was because we okay so for the listener like part of like the way things operate here there's somebody who manages all of our partnerships Rachel's in direct contact every single week with our partners they give her feedback of how things are working they tell her upcoming promotions or things that they want us to talk about if they got something going on the company and this actually didn't even make it to us so I didn't even know they are doing and why I think that's great it's a charitable thing that they're doing and it's not like you know what I don't like is the you know the virtue signaling the look look at me what I donate $50,000 and spend a million dollars letting everybody know exactly that's classic and so you know and this person actually thought we know we actually did not know this I really didn't have any message from a listener yeah and we're and we're in and we're in contact on a very regular basis and we ask for these things so we can share and talk about because I think they're good things to share but I just thought that just speaks so highly of the the integrity that the company has for them to do something like that and then to not be right away like let's go and because we're the we're the number one part of all the companies that they advertise with mine pump does the best with organifi so if there if anything's going to come down the pipe as far as talk about something about organifi it's going to come to us and the fact that they're doing something charitable like this and it wasn't like the first thing that they did was reach out and tell us that I just I think that's amazing I do I do too and I think that the people who are working right now who are exposing themselves more than than the rest of us who are you know stuck at home people who work of course in health and medical you know facilities people who police fire you work at a grocery store a gas station these essential businesses when you go to these places tell them thank you for working I really want these people to feel our gratitude because they're out there and they're the risking themselves you know the rest of us are self-quarantining I'm having no contact with anybody you work in the grocery store you've got customers coming in you're some kid that you know gets the carts in the parking lot or you know you have a so I I do every once in a while we still do takeout we'll go to a restaurant grab the food bring it home and eat or we'll do doordash I'm giving these people big tips I'm thanking them for working there's one place that Jessica and I go to in this in the area Isabella's they they do Peruvian food which you know Jessica introduced me to really really good small you know family restaurant or whatever and I make sure to go there once a week right now I like their food but really I want to support them I don't say thank you for you know still working and you know being out here I think it's I think it's it's something that these people need to know and you know what happens when you think of man you can see the look on their face I really appreciate it well again along along the lines of you know more great companies and doing cool stuff our friends right down the road red dot fitness oh so brilliant so good it's a scott's in the text message over to me last night and you know he says I want to open this up to our friends and family first before we talk about it publicly and of course I got approval to him to bring it up today because we already booked ours and they are doing COVID-19 antibody testing so so awesome and I just I think that's I know that we talked back and forth for a while it was a ton of work to even get the approval to do this and and to make it happen I'm right away and I told him to and again this is a situation where I mean he offered to do it for us for free because of all the support and things that we've done for them I said absolutely not I said every one of us want to pay I sent them over a list of my family and friends that all think that they may have had it already or that were in contact with me around the time that I thought I had it and Sal and all everybody that works here so we instantly booked right away and then I post it on my story and I already see it's almost booked already out it's flying I think it's so because they know one of the reasons why they have this opportunity is they were working with a laboratory to begin with because they so red dot fitness is a facility that's down the street from us and they offer fitness services have personal trainers in there it's a really nice well-equipped facility in fact in some of our YouTube videos we film them in this facility but they also do other types of health testing blood tests hormone tests and they have actual phlebotomists and you know they work with an actual laboratory so when this all started going down he contacted the laboratory and they really pushed hard to create a test that tested for antibodies and then get FDA approval for because these are real FDA approved tests it's a real laboratory and they were luckily able to to get them and I think this is just I think it's a great service I think it's a great service we need it and you know I great for the community I was telling some some family members and friends and a lot of them like well I thought that you know there was a shortage of tests and why aren't these free and this and that I said look this isn't taking away from the hospitals that are trying to get these tests out there this is in addition to and you want you want private organizations to get the FDA test and to sell them and put them out there because they're going to continue to help meet the demand because what we need to do is we don't because when you get to the hospital when the hospitals have them here's what's going to happen you're going to need to get prescription they're going to ration them and the prescription well they're also going to give them to all the people that they think already had it that are like there those people are going to be the first in line that's what I mean the the you're going to have to get a prescription because you're not just going to be able to show up and get tests so if we can get more of more private companies to make these tests sell them for a profit so they can make more what's going to end up happening is we get more and more and more people just there's a lot of people are paranoid they want to go get tested but it would be good to know how many like asymptomatic people well weren't they giving you crap because it was 250 or something like that that's they're like oh my god it's $250 and you're like come on did you got to understand what what or you can wait and try to get a prescription and try to get all that stuff but I what would I think the best thing that could happen is if we have widespread antibody testing people with no symptoms people with symptoms everybody because it'll give us a clear a more clear picture of what how much of the populations actually been infected because one of the big problems is all these asymptomatic people that you know they didn't really have any symptoms or they had a real mild cold and they don't know so we don't really know how many people and there's some speculation that the probably a much larger percentage of the population well I mean I am I'm super curious I know that we off air have talked more about this than we have on air but you know I in the mid in mid-January I went up to the Tahoe house with my childhood best friends there and there this was in January at mid-January mid-January I was up there and they all we all have you know newborn not newborn but kids that are under the age of two and wives and and we were all up there with our families for a week and we got sick as fuck I mean and remember these people go back all the way to childhood with me right and never in the entire time that we've been friends have we ever all been together like this got this sick and then we were so sick that the following week afterwards we were texting each other every day to check on each other and their kids because their two kids got hospitalized all of us were running fevers all of us had the all the symptoms that the everyone's talking about yeah but it wasn't even on our radar at that time because it wasn't over here and no one was talking about it so we just thought we had the nastiest flu when they brought their their their kids in to get tested they didn't come up with flu they didn't have a real answer that's the thing that's the that's the thing that makes me curious because your friend's kid who had to go to the hospital they tested them for everything yes and they had negative on everything yes even though they had fever terrible I mean yeah and your your friend's baby poor kid he had seizures yeah really bad yeah and which just recently I think just in the last couple weeks came out that they're starting to see that in infants starting to see that some of the babies are having seizures from this and they were like that I remember like us every day talking like what are they saying they're like well they think it could be this it might be that it was like all this maybe shit and we were and all of us all of us were talking saying man this is like one of the worst flus I have fucking either we each one of us either said it was the worst we've ever had in our life or it was one of the worst we've ever had in a long time and that was the conversation and we went on for a week afterwards of communicating together and even when I came back to work here if you remember some of those episodes back in January coughing all over and a lot of that dug edits out so you like you don't hear it but I mean every like time I had to lean over and cough and cough it was nasty so I'm really really curious and of course you know when I first was saying that I think I had it at the very beginning when this started to hit everybody laughed and said whatever it wasn't even in the U.S. yet but now we're starting to speculate that there's potential that it could have been over here speculate that it was probably that it could have been here in the states as early as December or maybe even so now I'm like so here's the thing for me like yeah I could I don't I'm not sick right now I could potentially wait three months until they're giving it to for free and I can go see my doctor and have my insurance pay for it or what with that or I could support a local friend and pay for it right now and allow one him to help his business out and two me find out right now if I have the anybody's fucking hey that's worth it and encourage a company or give them enough just give them the demand so that they can create more supply right we need more we need public testing and we need private testing for people who don't want to wait in line just want to get tested and I more and more people and I know that he's reinvesting back in it because he says right now that they you have to go through the the blood draw process yeah and he says like they're already pushing and working towards getting the finger prick which would like speed up the process I'm sure probably making it less expensive so they're looking to even already do that and hopefully this first round goes well for them and they book out so they can actually I'll tell you I'll tell you though dude if I I'm because I'm going to go get tested too right if I get tested and I don't have antibodies I'm gonna be so mad what a waste you know that was that was a shitty flu that sucks I don't know I think if I if I because you're you said the same thing off air to me they're just like you know just be prepared that you don't so but I don't know I think there's there's probably areas I could tighten up my game a little bit better about being even more cautious and and then I already am so if I find that out that I haven't I think that okay I better be careful that I'm not immune to this right now so I want to know no matter what you know so whatever the outcome it's not it's not good or bad for me it's just I want to know yeah well for me if I have the antibodies it makes me feel like I can help some of the older people in my family because if I have antibodies then I'll be able to get groceries for them I'll be able to go out and do certain things yeah without you know fear you know the fear of getting infected did you guys hear there was a few people have started to train dogs to actually deliver groceries like some wine companies have you know dogs they send out to basically go up to the door with with the bottles of wine and then also like there's a few like people have trained their dogs to actually deliver the bags with these saddles on their back to older people dude dogs are the best they're the shit right dogs are the best just don't just don't like buy a hot dogs or something oh yeah can you imagine yeah I would you know what I should I wish I would read the article now because I saw something pop up in my feed and it made me curious but I was distracted doing something else uh that I would think that actually pets would be a bad thing to be around because they're long fur and petting them oh yeah I would think they could transfer it uh as easy or easier than even humans touching well so no because wouldn't you think that's how that would work no because so far the the greatest uh chance of contracting this virus is by being near someone that has it they shed the virus like crazy it's still possible to pick it up from a surface but it's not nearly as is likely that you're just out in public you touch the surface yeah if you do get it from a surface it's probably because you're in a room with someone who has it and you're in the room for I guess cats are susceptible uh as far as what I've read did you see the tiger there was a tiger there was a tiger that got it Bronx do that got that got COVID what a tiger and the Bronx do got it dude dude Joe exotic fuck didn't he get it Carol hey did you check your snopes before you put it out no it's all over no I saw that I saw that article too so they got me if so it's that bitch Carol basket yes she's all over this thing I'll tell you what given all the tigers that COVID you brought up you brought up the other day uh the Spotify or the uh the rockabye baby thing yeah for acdc yeah yeah dude so after you brought that up I got a flood of dms of all dude they have everything I know like your favorite band they put like wind chimes they have all a tool done I was last night like it's the hell later I was working late last night and all of a sudden it comes on my phone Katrina's like what are you listening to I'm like this is the most amazing thing ever you're listening to like prison sex but it's uh you know for kids yes they have they have every they have every tool song done in in uh you know lullaby or whatever it's so great oh it's very relaxing actually even for me yeah because it's my favorite band we recognize the tune yes yeah and like I was still listening to thunderstruck just like with wind chimes and you're just sitting there reading a book like yeah it's it's very yeah it's very chill that's fucking yeah I know hey so uh do you guys see that bezos donated a hundred million dollars to food banks oh that's okay isn't that great yeah a hundred million dollars good job yeah and I'm sure he's gonna get criticized of course yeah of course you've got a hundred billion yeah you only like a dollar yeah right I know but anyway isn't that great though that's great no that's so good I saw yeah there was there was a list of like some of the top you know like most rich people I guess you would say like in like donating and what they're donating right now it's it's pretty astounding what they're donating yeah um America is the leads the world in in donation both in charity total charity dollars and in per capita charitable dollars so we do a damn good job of giving our you know in comparison I think we could do better of course but in comparison to the rest of the world I think we do in per capita so even when you're calculating all the amount of money well I'm sure if we were taxed different there would be people giving me a lot more money too right oh it's actually that's there's there's lots of evidence on that that's the theory right the theory is that theory there's lots there's evidence every time taxes go down you see and people make more money as a result you see charitable donations go up right every single time so it's really cool speaking of which uh Bernie Sanders dropped out he's out oh he's done he finally gave up yeah oh wow that's big news actually it's going to be Biden versus Trump dude you know it's you know it's crazy and you brought this up the other day and I just I guess I didn't it didn't really dawn on me because I mean we're we're heading into you know election time totally totally forgotten about at this point yeah I don't I haven't seen Biden anywhere no I haven't seen him anywhere it's every single day it is Trump talking to the nation every single day their fuck and the only thing that they the other side has is let's find ways to nitpick the things that he says which makes you look terrible because you won't you know right now it's an emergency situation right you're not getting any airtime and you know uh here's the other thing too crazy news that comes out about these politicians it doesn't even make you the first page of google for example people don't know this but a woman I think it was a woman came forward to talk about about Biden yes about him touching her inappropriately or something like that right nobody knows nobody cares because we're reading about everything else that's happening oh my god but that's that was big that's that would normally be big well what is he running on yeah I'm friends with Obama yeah is that like his pitch have you heard his speeches so so Trump says a lot of stupid shit right he'll say things that you're just like oh my gosh just can't believe you said that Biden says shit that just doesn't make any sense like his brain doesn't work properly yeah I seriously worry he's like you know like dementia is setting in it sounds like it sounds like every time he talks yeah this is gonna be fun yeah well we were hoping to see like a good old duel but I don't think we're gonna see it because of what's going on I mean that should be happening right now right now there should be fire going back and forth between the two of them but it's not there is but we yet he's not the official nominee he will be because because you know Sanders just dropped out so now Biden is I mean 100 he's guaranteed yeah who else is yeah up there with it but isn't it aren't we in the aren't we in the middle of like when it really heats up like this is like when all like if you're left or right you're saving all your ammo for this time right now right isn't this when it starts or start it's gonna start to ramp up because now we know for sure Bernie Sanders is the is the he's gonna be the candidate for so when when do we normally see the peak of the the fighting back and forth I mean of course right before you know you know you ever hear the word the term of the October surprise you really okay that's what yeah that's because in October real dirt starts getting well what they'll do is they'll get something really tasty yeah they hope that's the coup de grace and then they'll save it yeah because October's right before because what you don't see what ends up happening this way like politics I've watched this shit like a total dork right you'll come out with some crazy ass bad news about a candidate but if it comes out too soon you fuck because their approval ratings will drop but then time will pass and then people kind of forget about it yeah so you want to save your worst shit for right before so that it sticks and that person's mud sticks right yeah it's so sports for oh it's so good so sports for I love it exactly with paul so so uh you know one of our partners is obviously crushing right now um are they still on back order I'm talking about prx oh yeah because I know that they have uh I mean it's it's not super bad right you can still order well pull the website up dub because they actually had a banner that would actually tell people as soon as you log into their the prx website no I know because man plates right now are so valuable everything everybody wants them well by the way we just got our order of bands and I apologize if they're gone by the time you hear this because they're moving that fat because it was hard for us to reorder and get them they're sold out everywhere home gym equipment home fitness equipment is bands plates everything you could think of it's crazy well something to consider too I mean no not our link done their actual website yeah just after all this passes I mean it's like yeah sure like reintroduce yourself to the gyms but like having a home gym makes a lot of sense you know like it is something that you do definitely want to consider well I I love working out at home always have I love it because it eliminates the time I need to drive the gym drive home it it allows me to work out zero ego I get creative I have fun I can play with the fuck I want in terms of music or whatever I shock you know I could do whatever I want in my own home gym so I always loved it but right now home fitness equipment and like company like prx that makes I mean prx is quality you got a real rack you got real weights yeah and they're just crushing because everybody right now is trying to order they might they might be doing okay now they must because they used to have a red banner they went across that said that everything is six weeks backward no they still have that minimum of five weeks for order processing daily sales limit due to high order volume that's not bad five weeks is not bad because a lot of places are sold out completely oh yeah and I think it would take you two weeks anyways right it took about that long for us to get all of our well I'll tell you what probably working around the clock right now some of the last places that will probably be open I hate to say this our gyms they're not considered essential at all and and they're you know the way that people view them is there's lots of people together sweating and working out I'm pretty sure it's going to be a little bit longer than we think well not only that it's like what we speculated on is that even if they do open I doubt people are going to come rushing back in that's that's one of the I mean personally even that's one of the last places that I'm going to find the need to like I got to get back into like you there's so many other things with work and stores and your your daily life things that you like to do the restaurants that you eat at I mean I'm going to do all those things probably before I go into a gym that's got a bunch of people in sweating and you know how crazy people are going to get if you don't wipe the machine after you're done they're going to be like Nazis and you know this to those that are gym owners out there those that are thinking about that the ones that put in new policies if you make people feel safe right go above and beyond like if let's put this way like here we don't do this anymore but if I was running a gym I would budget and staff even if it's a minimum wage employee that literally the entire time they're only job is to be walking around and wiping machines so people see that hundred percent that's that's worth it and you know what's you know what you want to know what's funny though about this I haven't heard because you read about cases where there were like super where they call them like super spreaders of the virus or whatever I haven't heard of uh uh gyms being a major place of spreading the virus so and I'm not saying that that can't happen you're in close quarters you're sweating whatever but uh they may all just be carriers I don't know I don't know I mean you got healthy people in there um you know for the most part yeah I don't know I don't know well you know what I was thinking about it is remember how there was like this this trend for a while where people would come in with like garden gloves and like just gloves in general like dude gloves are coming back you know like like not the cutoff ones with with the fingers hanging out in the web no it's it's like real gloves I guarantee there's gonna be gloved workouts that's actually a really good point yeah we should we should get it on I have the cutoff finger it's actually a really good point that's gonna I bet you that will be popular like like the cool sticky glove you know whatever there's theories around that we're we're gonna have the mass now that people are gonna still continue to do that for a while we'll see I'll tell you what though if you're can we make one fashionable I mean why not have an Adam's face on it predator I don't know what everybody could look like Adam no some millions of those you see how cool I was in fifth grade though you know good picture yeah quite the grill back then I told you I told you made your grill I didn't believe you I was like what yeah you thought you thought I was exaggerating did you eat sideways or what bro I had the I had them but possibly slurping it in I had them teeth till 20 years old man till 20 years old I was rocking them crooked ass teeth like that it was messed up you're still a cute kid man diversity I'd still squeeze your large eye with my mouth closed but for a long I remember remember talking to Justin about this and I know you remember this it's completely changed but just five years ago the way Justin smiles and laughs is different than how he is now yeah yeah it is it trained you especially when it's from young when you're younger and insecure of course you know I'm saying so yeah I had a crooked closed mouth smile like all the way until 20s it wasn't until yep I got my teeth fixed and then even then I had to like kind of train myself like go ahead show your teeth because your teeth are all straight now yeah I'm like a lot nicer now yeah he smiled more yeah I was like always like the mean mug you know constantly like resting bitch face dude no the best the best thing is Justin when he takes pictures he does the yeah I think I've been trying to eliminate that though now I go like ah like like more like big open teeth action versus like oh like job of the hut looking fucking yeah it's like you never learned how to pose for a picture yeah I never did dude is there like a classy guy like you got the angles you got lights like all this bullshit well when you have kids I'm sure you know this when you have kids and they do the school pictures especially in the younger grades third fourth fifth kids don't know how to pose they don't know how to smile like for they do a fake smile this is terrible yeah so my son's like yeah and my daughter does this like you know like that's not how you normally smile so the way I teach my kids is I said I think of something funny before they take the picture and then laugh so my daughter's like I think of farts all right that's perfect that's my little girl yeah first question is from Josh core is there a rule of thumb one should stick by when programming their own workouts yeah Josh core there's a lot of rules of thumb but I think the number one rule of thumb probably the best possible thing you could do when you're programming your own workout is the same thing that a trainer would absolutely have to do before training a client learn how to do a self-assessment this makes a huge difference in how you train yourself so that's the foundation right there right right so you know some basic ways to do it like you could have some take a picture of your posture standing sideways this isn't perfect but it's one simple easy one and you look at your posture like man my shoulders really round forward okay now you know because your shoulders round forward I'm going to try and insert exercises that focus on bringing my shoulders back that's just a simple example or if you try to do a squat and you notice your hips aren't activating maybe insert exercises that help you fire and activate your glutes now if you really want to go the extra mile and get very individualized without hiring a trainer because trainers can be expensive um maps prime has a self-assessment tool there's three movements and you kind of now why is it is an assessment so important it literally tells you what exercises to focus on and what's which ones you shouldn't do so back to the forward shoulder you got somebody with really bad forward shoulder time to work out their back you know what exercise I'm not I'm not going to do lat pull downs not going to do lots of lat pull downs because that's going to in many times encourage that forward shoulder it's going to encourage their their bad posture and the worst thing you can do is get really strong at moving bad so if you know if you don't figure it out and you just go throw exercises at yourself you may actually make certain things worse now besides injuries and pain and all that stuff it just slows down your progress it just doesn't make you progress as fast I had no idea you're going to go that direction because you know when you think of a question like this that the typical thing is talking about periodization and talking about order of exercise and yeah and those are important to no no they are but I'm actually really glad you went that way because it that wasn't on my mind but it it it it it's true that you know it's one thing to be going to the gym all you're focused on is losing body fat or building muscle but the truth is every client that all of us train that that was that was part of their goal there my main focus always was to address you know chronic pain and and posture first or while I was heading towards their goal and when you do a good assessment and you and you find out what's going on with your body why are you not able to squat all the way to the ground why are you not able to get your hands back against the wall I just did something on my story the other day you can see me struggling with it and and I show that to I love when people DM me to and like point out like all the shit like oh you're not doing this very well like yeah no shit bro that's it I'm sharing it working on right I'm exactly I'm sharing it so people know that even somebody who's a trainer who's been doing this long it's not like something that you know you do one time or that I'm immune to it like I like it's an area I'm on my phone all day I sit more than I've ever sat in my life this last five years and so it's something that I I constantly have to work on and it's a priority it's the first priority before I get into the lift like yeah the bench press part's fun and I love to lift heavy and and get stronger and build muscle but before that you know it's me spending 10 minutes addressing all the things that I need to work on and to me the most valuable thing I think trainers can give to clients is this now and you don't need to be a trainer to to understand this this was this was a lot of the motivation behind prime was yes it was a tool that we thought about trainers when we when we created it like every trainer should have this in their arsenal especially if they're an online coach but we really wanted to simplify it enough that like our my mom could pick it up could read through it watch the videos and understand the things that she should be doing to help her body out before she goes into a basic workout and so that was the idea of this program and if there is an I love that you went this way Sal because it wasn't where I was thinking at all it's true like this should be the place that you start and at the bare minimum be doing that and then the next rule of thumb for me is working on the big lifts right and getting good at them and understanding that if you're not good at them which is very common it's common that you don't have a good dead lift you don't have a good squat you don't have good and the reason why that is is for why you do the assessment and you work on those things because most people don't move on a squat or a deadlift or an overhead press or a bench press well because they have dysfunction because they're not good they're not they don't have favorable movement patterns that they need to work on so that's why what sal said is the first rule then what the next thing is use those four core lifts and and look at it like you're trying to get good at the skill of it and practice getting good and then when you're not good or you feel weird things when you're bench pressing it doesn't feel right or you notice when you squat things break down the knees come in or you can't get very deep instead of just saying I'm a bad squatter I'm gonna give up I'm not do it try and dive deeper into your own body and learn why that is I mean to reiterate you know basically what both of you have said it's like for me it's the rule is really you know the assessment part of it is is understanding how the body is properly functioning or it's not you know all the joints able to do what they're supposed to do without you know pain and restriction and you know and then it's it's it's a matter of if not in certain things then you know I'm not gonna load that movement and so there's just standards like that where you know I'm going unloaded with clients in terms of like doing a squat for instance you know until we get enough stability support to then like gradually add load but definitely treating the major lifts like a skill is a very important thing to then you know aspire to you know get your get your programming towards you know something that's like like a very admirable squat you know bench press overhead lift you know stuff like that yeah so by the way do you guys know where the term rule of thumb came from yeah I remember this this was on that movie with a boondock saints no did they talk about that yeah yeah so this big lady was beating this guy up about it apparently it was there were laws in certain areas where you could only hit your wife with your partner with a stick with the stick that was as big like as big as your thumb that was the biggest so they you're trying to control the right they were beatings yeah I did not know that so they called it the rule of thumb like you could hit your wife with a stick it couldn't be very PC yeah anyway that's I think that I mean that's what I've read maybe it's a myth I'm sure people will correct me if it is here's another good rule of thumb right and I'm gonna put it very very plainly practice exercises often train them less often yeah okay so what I mean bit by that is rather than going into your squat session in thinking you're gonna hammer your legs more often what you should do is go into your squat session thinking I'm gonna get good at squats and practice totally different mentality and it dictates it actually directs your workout in ways that are more beneficial well and let's explain what that kind of looks like so let's take for example you you've gone through like the the squat assessment on maps prime and there's certain movements on there that we teach to help improve you know if you have a quote-unquote broken squat so you know what those movements are it might be 90-90 stuff might be combat stretch when you're going in to practice a squat sometimes this is what it looks like for me I do all those priming movements that I'm supposed to do before I get into a squat then I go do a set and it's a light set it's not supposed to be really heavy I want some load on the bar because I want to feel the weight I also feel like when you especially with squat practice with something right right yeah sometimes it helps to get into the movement better even to have some weight than just your body weight so loading the bar somewhat but not like like less than 50 intensity on it and then I do the movement and I'm watching myself in the mirror or maybe I even use my phone to record myself I look at it and I pay attention to what look oh wow I you know I look like I'm getting a little bit more travel in my knees from my combat so that's great but oh man I feel like my knees are caving in so then I go back I sit down I do some more priming movements then I go back to another set of squats then I look in assess again then I go back and do some more priming and I'm what I'm doing is I'm trying to get better connected work on my movement patterns and then go and you know I'm teetering back and forth between these priming movements and the squat because my goal isn't how much weight can I throw in the bar or how strong can I how much can I hammer my legs or how sore can I get it's I want to get better at this movement right so it's the difference between like if you're learning how to swim and you're you're practicing how to swim well it's a difference between practicing swimming and just going as fast as you can yeah in a meet okay that's the difference so you're going to approach your your exercises as practice more often than not and every once in a while when you feel comfortable and form is good you can push it and train yourself it's a really really good rule of thumb for most people and by the way practicing exercise especially if you do it frequently so if I practice squats three days a week I'm going to build muscle and I'm going to get stronger the frequency of practice is what really sends that muscle building signal so two other things I really consider well you know being in a program or program for other clients is you know how long have they been in you know uh like one plane of motion and and how can I incorporate more planes of motion uh so it actually expresses uh those specific movements that the joint needs to uh go through in order to remain healthy remain a part of the stability process and so like I'm always looking through and like kind of scanning it have they been uh you know equally loaded uh too long like should we should we do some unilateral training uh should we do some more rotational movement uh should we go left to right uh all these things are you should consider because the body is capable of those things and we should train them right so in other words train like if you're always doing squats with two legs and that's what you've been doing for a while try some single leg exercises or try something where you move to the side right like a lateral lunge versus a look if here's the other thing you can do uh obviously one of the easiest ways to do this is like you know get the program maps prime follow the assessment but we also have a youtube channel with a bunch of free videos and stuff on there another thing you can do if you want to do that if you want to just use all of our free information is when you do yourself assessment one thing you could do is say what parts of my body tend to bother me go on our video library and see if you can find something so uh you know my my hips tend to bother me or my squat doesn't feel good go on the youtube channel mind pump tv and just search like squat mobility movements or shoulder mobility movements because my shoulders bother me or my back or whatever you'll find free videos and those movements uh more often than not will benefit you and get you better at doing your traditional exercises next question is from rabri how quickly will you lose muscle mass when no longer working out with heavy weights can you maintain or build muscle when you only have bands 10 to 30 pound dumbbells and a suspension trainer this this depends so it really does depend on uh on the person programming if you're yeah if you're first off you have to have a good workout so if you have a crappy workout i don't care if use heavy weights light weights bands body weight it's not going to work very well so that's number one yeah if you're falling with all the instagram fluids or they're doing right now with all these weird fucking yeah jumping exercises and lifting couches and doing things with your chair of just if you're doing ridiculous stuff just to get a sweat like you're losing muscle you are it's coming you are but let's say you always train with heavy weight let's say you've been doing it for years this is what you do and now you're forced to be more creative you have the light dumbbells you have bands you have body weight sometimes a change just the change with good programming actually produces better results you know what i for years i trained super super heavy weight all the time because that's what was supposed to build the most muscle when i switched to light weight higher reps i actually built more muscle and this this has happened time and time again just because it's novel and honestly somebody who lifts heavy weights all the time and like trains more more like a power lifter and is now forced to do body weight trx or bands and all of those things are things that are completely foreign to them normally has a really good chance to actually building muscle and even if you lose a little bit of strength right that that wouldn't be weird it wouldn't be weird to not be heavy squatting and not be heavy because don't forget there's the skill part of the of of the movement too that that is required there and that you lose because you're not doing it as much anymore so you might see a slight step back when you get back in the gym let's say three months from now but and i think sal addresses the other day but how quick you'll gain that back and then the likelihood that you'll progress beyond that because you've trained your body with this novel stimulus over the course of this one or two months that we're out that's right you could see huge benefits well and i think too and i bring up programming because i think a lot of people look at this is like an accessory lift stuff right like this is like novel it's cool it's cute but there's a way to really progress and uh you know like gymnast do a fantastic job of this i remember like for a whole year i was like training with just body weight and trying you know my best to take an exercise and then uh intensify it somehow whether i'm adding gravitational forces by you know increasing demand through the angles or you know i'm holding in specific poses and i'm like adding intensity to the isometric portion uh you know i'm using bands i'm using a really heavier band you know load for that uh there's ways to progress and in thinking in those in that direction will will help you to not only just like preserve your muscles but also gain muscle that's right now let's say you do lose a little bit of muscle because you change the stimulus and it's just not as loud or not as effective as the previous workout okay you're not gonna lose a ton of muscle and whatever you lose comes back very very quickly it's called muscle memory and it comes back really really fast but if you're smart and you and you have good workout programming at home and you're getting creative and you're addressing all the issues that you tend to neglect here's what will probably happen when you go back to the gym maybe you do lose a little bit of muscle but you've gained mobility you've gained control you've gained stability maybe even gained a little bit of endurance maybe you're not used to doing higher reps and slower reps and that kind of stuff you go back to the gym go back to your traditional lifting take your time don't just jump right into it the muscle muscle mass that you lost comes back in a hurry and then you go past your old plateau you go past your old limits because now you're heading into them with new skills new ways of supporting your body and better mobility this i'm going to tell you this right now okay for a lot of you gym fanatics that get stuck in the same kind of training this and you and you now you're changing your routine dramatically because you're forced to one of the best possible things that could happen to you as much as it sucks maybe you're resisting it if you're consistent you got good workout programming mark my words when you're finally able to go back to the gym you will look back at this and say that actually was a good thing that happened for my body because now i'm surpassing all the limits i had before and sometimes we need to be forced sometimes look for i know for me injuries and pain in the past have forced me to change my workout program and when i come out of them and i do everything right i always look back and be like you know that was actually a good thing my stability is better i break my old i hit my old pr and i'm i'm above it 10 pounds because i was focusing on all these things that i was ignoring before next question is from steve morrison 416 i'm coming into week four of maps anywhere and have been enjoying the change from performance i'm now hearing that we may be having to social distance for another 12 weeks since anywhere is four weeks what would be the best way to progress should i run it another two times or extend the phases okay great question so first off maps anywhere is our is our equipment free workout program all you need are bands and a broomstick and then you do the workouts by the way we've extended the 50 off sale and i just use the code white and then the number 50 without a space okay so here's the deal maps anywhere comes with the ability to scale and progress it over and over and over again one of the ways to do this is through what are called the amp sessions increase the amount of sets reps or pick more difficult movements within there so the my recommendation just like i would recommend with anybody else who followed any other program once you've gone through it look at the program modify it and run it again and then go through the program and then modify it and run it again if you do that you're going to continue to progress each time this is true for any program there's also another way that you can progress it that i've recommend to some people too which is we've been talking a lot about on this show about the benefits of breaking up a workout you know in 20 minute workouts throughout the day now the maps anywhere program is about a 40 minute workout i'd say is what it takes to get through that so i would actually do that twice in a day so i would actually go twice in a day or you could break it up three times and split the workout up so you can increase volume by just doing that the second time around now i don't recommend that the first time i think the first time like we do with most of all our programs we tell people to just as is written yeah follow the programming as it is because we always take into account the the idea that you may want to scale it up or that you have different levels of fitness that are entering this so follow it the way it's programmed and then one one option to scale up or increase intensity is what sal saying is choose exercises because we have exercises one two and three and levels like and level three is more difficult than level one and we give you the flexibility to build your these amp sessions by choosing those exercises i recommend when you're first going through it you're choosing most of your exercises from level one you know get and get good at them and then when you go through a second time pick more of them through level two if you go through a third time pick level three that's what sal's talking about with the amp sessions you can also build more volume in because their body weight movements because they're shorter workouts you can do two 40 minute workouts in the day or you could cut the workout in half and then do it three times throughout the day too so there's a lot of different ways that you can scale the volume up after you've been through it one time and then come back and this recommendation is true for again and you probably don't care if you follow our program or any of the program if it's a good workout and you want to go through it again just look at it and okay this is what i did for the last six weeks uh what are some new exercises i can add or this movement here kind of bothered me i'm going to add this or i'm going to add another set to every exercise to get me to do more volume this is true advice for any kind of workout that you follow maps anywhere also include we don't talk about it very often but we included a suspension trainer suspension trainer mod inside it too so that's another way that if you have a suspension trainer right right and you can find those relatively cheap i mean i know the name brand ones can are a bit expensive but they have knockoff brands that are relatively inexpensive and i don't i don't think they're sold out like a lot of bands are and you could do a lot of cool stuff i mean there's a whole library of of movements that we created in that in that oh this is a ton i mean even like olympic rings those are another option that gives you the same exact kind of result but like you can really get some intense exercise out of that even just doing dips on that as a whole another level of stability for the shoulders and strength to perform and so i mean there's there's ways to really like add intensity and like difficulty to what we already presented so and if you have any more like you need you're in need of some ideas make sure and dms or like you don't get on the forum and there's plenty of people that got some more like additions to that you can add next question is from sean bailey math what accessory exercises do you recommend for building the deadlift one of my favorite ways to get stronger and there's a lot of different ways that you can increase your deadlift if you're stuck but one of my favorite ways to to get my deadlift to go up is to use some form of progressive resistance so this can come in the form of chains or it can come in the form of resistance band so a resistance band would be attached to the barbell either either under my feet or under a you know a rack or something that's going to anchor it and what ends up happening is as i lift the weight off the floor you know as bands get stretched the resistance gets harder and harder as you stretch them out just like a rubber band right so at the bottom of the rep when i'm my weakest the weight isn't there isn't that much more weight from the band but as i lift the weight and as i tend to get stronger in my lift anyway it adds more resistance so what it's doing is it's adding resistance as i get stronger because when you're doing a lift some parts of the lift are easier than others so it's a great way to overload the areas that you're stronger and not overload the areas that you're weaker a chain does the same thing if i put a chain around the bar let it sit on the floor as i pick up the bar the links come up off the floor and the bar gets heavier and heavier and this method of progressive resistance is super effective studies are pretty clear on this strength gains are faster it's great for breaking through plateaus and it's also great for building muscle so that's one of the easy simple ways that i love doing that and i also i love doing deficit dead lifts like you know and just adding a platform and standing on to get you know address certain parts of the lift that you struggle with the most that's one of them that you know you can lighten up the load but then really you know gain more access in recruitment where you need it more and so that's one way to work on that and then you can also add the chains like like south sainter bands to you know intensify that even more and then just having a different stance you know trying you know the sumo stance and working on that to you know reinforce the hips and everything else you know involved in the lift even more you said deficit deads here's an easy way to do this at home so tip traditionally what guys will do is they'll stand on something so that now they have to bend down to get deeper to lift the deadlift that's why it's called a deficit so rather than pulling it off the floor and your feet on the floor just do small now you're yeah just those smaller plates so true 25 the traditional height that people deadlift is the height of the circumference of a 45 pound plate some people who can't deadlift the 45 pound plate will get lighter plates but they're the same circumference so it's that that's the traditional height put you know 35s or 25s on the bar now you rather have me stand on something you just have to get down lower but i will say this if you do a deficit deadlift you better make sure you brace your core and go like very susceptible if you're lower back so be totally totally so i have one that did wonders for my deadlift and i love to teach this and that is barefoot single leg deadlifts uh you can go on my instagram and look back i know i've got at least two videos in the last year that i've posted of me doing this i love this too in a time right now because it doesn't most people will have to start with really light dumbbells the first time because just balancing on one leg and getting down to the ground to pick up dumbbells is extremely challenging for a lot of people so you have to start really really light and then so it gives you lots of room to progress and man if you can get to a point where you can do that with you know 50 60 90 or 100 pound dumbbells and you can do that balancing barefoot on one leg and do a single leg deadlift watch what happens when you go back to traditional deadlifts the just the the grounding of that the stability the hip stability that you get from that the ankle stability that you get from that the unilateral training strength that you're going to get and then you go back to bilateral both feet on the ground a traditional deadlift man i i never felt so connected and grounded to my deadlift that when i actually took a break from deadlifting and i tried to progress my single leg uh deadlift that was incredible you know what that's a great one for right now because that's why i thought of that yeah because if people are at home you don't need a lot of weight to do a single leg deadlift in fact for most you know beginner to intermediate lifters no weight uh you just you just bend over you know keep good form yeah touch the floor with your toes and then stand up and you can get creative with this right we had somebody in our um in our forum that are not our forum i think on on instagram that tagged us that was using jugs of water like you know so maybe you don't have a set of dumbbells that goes all the way up to whatever but you can use the one gallon jugs then you can use like five progress up to eventually getting five gallon jugs man you do that and get good at that in doing single leg deadlift boy i tell you right now watch what happens dude most people need no no weight i'll be honest i i'll take people and i'll have them do with and they're just they're falling over the place yeah it's no way start with that watch what happens but it's a great that's a great exercise for right now make sure to like you you just notice little things like your your heel kind of turning in and any rotation that's involved in that try and stays so we have some youtube's on that to make sure that you're doing the form correctly but definitely give those a shot now look before i sign off uh i want to give a special shout out to our friend uh dr jolene brighton she's been on our show a couple times we absolutely love her um first time we met her we loved her she's got great information great instagram page you know she she focuses on women's health wrote some really good books on the birth control and through it right now and um she's got uh you know she's got the coronavirus um she was at the hospital they gave her some oxygen therapy they're sending her home with an oxygen tank as of the recording of this podcast um and you know she's a big believer in uh collective consciousness in in in their studies to show that when people pray or wish somebody to be better um that they they tend to get better can't explain it um but she's because she's a believer in it uh and if you're a religious person uh you know send say a prayer for dr jolene brighton let her know you're hoping that she gets better if you're not religious send her good vibes um we hope you get better soon um we hope you beat this and you're okay and um and that's that and with that go to mind pump free dot com check out all of our free guides and resources we got a lot of books

Everyone, Basel Chapman, on this Monday, the 25th of April, just about to wrap up the weekend and the month, we're just starting the week, but it'll be the weekly chart that I'm really talking about. It's going to be very important on Friday where it closes. We're looking at the Dow down 375, continuing the settle from Friday over 900 points, 1,000 points at one point, closed down over 900 points. This is a three big red candle so far. I think it's on a very short-term basis what I'd be looking for for a bounce towards the end of the day going into tomorrow. You'd have to see the Dow less than 120 points down after about, I'd say, 210, 220, probably even a little earlier than that to have a bounce against the Dow way, way off the lows, not about being positive, way off the lows. This is interesting. Look, the Dow is down 1.1%, the S&P is down 1.2%. Very sharp continuation move to the downside. Must hold. It's a 42.18. The 41.83 level will be really important to hold the next two days, but look at the QQQ. You tried to run positive a little earlier on, it's now down to a 3 to 335, it continues this move down. Really, what I'm looking at is the TLT. The TLT is the bonds, the Lehman 20 and Treasury Bond Fund up 2.14 at 1.20, 2.30. We've been talking about this for a week. It's been saying that the TBT, I'll talk more about it in my show, the Tiger Technicians Hour coming up, that the TBT, the ultra short Lehman 20-year Treasury Bond ETF, looks to me like with that doji candle at 26.25 about five sessions ago that it was about to reverse. And if it reverses a pattern that we were looking at now, let's go on to the Crudor. Look at this Crudor down huge. Crudor is down five a gain today, very negative, but still stuck in a range. But it's just saying to us that you can't just take things for granted. Yes, Crudor is still up in the 90s, 97 right now, but this is really important, the fact that there is some alleviation of that pressure to the upside. And you're looking at, we're going to go to the, I did the bonds. So I want to look at the IWM, the IWM is the Russell 2000, very weak gain was to the left side, lower February, it's trading at 1.89 right now. I'll be back with the Tiger Technicians Hour and check out my opening call, the news that hope to see you in a few minutes. The reality.
