11
00:01:03.640 --> 00:01:07.200

12
00:01:07.239 --> 00:01:11.040
know, But what sixty with my
Nike tackle? He had the link in

13
00:01:11.079 --> 00:01:17.599

15
00:01:19.640 --> 00:01:23.599
Brooklyn. I've never really been to
Brooklyn, but I've been a Bronx.

16
00:01:23.560 --> 00:01:27.120
You never been to Brooklyn? You're
lying, not for real? But I'm

17
00:01:27.120 --> 00:01:32.879
also from Brooklyn. You're from Country
Day. Look at the Country Day Academy.

18
00:01:32.879 --> 00:01:37.799
Everyone. This kid's on the fucking
poster. He's on the pamphlet.

19
00:01:38.239 --> 00:01:40.280
Kids on the fucking pamphlet. All
Right, dude, this is kind of

20
00:01:40.280 --> 00:01:46.400
a basic batch question, but it
would be good for y'all to like go

21
00:01:46.519 --> 00:01:48.879
into it, and there's like a
second step to us. So what inspired

22
00:01:48.920 --> 00:01:56.719
your first fitness journey? But what
has changed or what evolved over time with

23
00:01:56.799 --> 00:02:00.920
it? M Because again we we
about it. But a lot of people

24
00:02:00.920 --> 00:02:01.719
are like, I want to be
Goku, but then all of a sudden

25
00:02:01.719 --> 00:02:05.319
they are a world record holding powerlifters, Like that ain't the same? What

26
00:02:05.359 --> 00:02:07.280
the fuck? Yeah that ain't the
same? You know, I don't know

27
00:02:07.639 --> 00:02:12.159
or say like, yeah, my
high school girlfriend broke my heart, so

28
00:02:12.199 --> 00:02:14.800
I want to get back at her. But then now you're on stage being

29
00:02:14.840 --> 00:02:16.719
sea bomb Like those aren't related,
Like you're not getting back at her oiled

30
00:02:16.800 --> 00:02:21.680
up in your man thong. You
know that's not getting back at a girlfriend.

31
00:02:22.000 --> 00:02:24.120
I mean it could be. No, the old girlfriend sees you oiled

32
00:02:24.159 --> 00:02:27.159
up in a man thong, like, dang, I missed out on that

33
00:02:27.199 --> 00:02:31.319
if I was too hand bitch,
No, you think women date you based

34
00:02:31.319 --> 00:02:35.479
on your weight. That's how I
know you're missing. Nah, because I'm

35
00:02:35.479 --> 00:02:42.360
one forty eight. You couldn't get
to two forty bro two on five six

36
00:02:42.400 --> 00:02:45.800
frame, it's crazy. Yeah,
that's weight bodybuilding. Five to six is

37
00:02:45.800 --> 00:02:49.039
what you're claiming. Yeah, no, oh, oh, that's everyone.

38
00:02:49.919 --> 00:02:54.919
Ain't nobody on the planet four or
the five eight motherfuckers are five to five

39
00:02:54.960 --> 00:02:59.680
and the five six motherfuckers five four
or five three. People think I'm a

40
00:02:59.719 --> 00:03:04.680
short r J bro y'all swim show. In my head, RJ is four

41
00:03:04.840 --> 00:03:08.599
really? Oh I hell no,
five four. I call him out that

42
00:03:09.000 --> 00:03:14.479
you we'll measure you. I'll measure
you on the b he he racked high

43
00:03:14.639 --> 00:03:21.800
four five four five, rack four
or five. Yeah, I don't go

44
00:03:21.840 --> 00:03:24.800
by racket you nerd. Back to
the question of what got us indefend and

45
00:03:24.840 --> 00:03:30.000
then what evolved. I think it's
being sports. Always you're around some type

46
00:03:30.000 --> 00:03:34.039
of gym. We're not doing like
the weight room stuff, but we're doing

47
00:03:34.080 --> 00:03:36.840
like bands, like the crossf anything. I actually feel like weight room in

48
00:03:36.879 --> 00:03:39.280
baseball was more popular at least in
my generation growing up than basketball was.

49
00:03:39.560 --> 00:03:45.639
Probably yeah, because it's kind of
a mark with wire ship and then shout

50
00:03:45.680 --> 00:03:47.560
out to Bart. Being Asian,
we always watched like Bart and g O,

51
00:03:49.599 --> 00:03:51.879
and then it probably didn't come to
fruition until when I was like,

52
00:03:52.080 --> 00:03:54.719
all right, I'm now a washball
player. I need some type of like

53
00:03:55.000 --> 00:03:58.759
maybe you were washed because he didn't
let work out. No, I just

54
00:03:58.960 --> 00:04:02.159
threw out my arm and like I
had other passions. You didn't work out?

55
00:04:02.479 --> 00:04:05.120
No, maybe okay, go tell
that to everyone else. I got

56
00:04:05.120 --> 00:04:09.360
Tommy John, maybe you ain't working
out. Maybe, oh Kyle, you

57
00:04:09.400 --> 00:04:12.800
heard it, you ain't working out. Maybe ship anyway, you never know.

58
00:04:13.120 --> 00:04:14.599
And I was like, Okay,
I need something to do, and

59
00:04:14.599 --> 00:04:17.399
I recalled back to like ten year
old memories of like oh yeah, Barton

60
00:04:17.480 --> 00:04:20.399
g O, let's go see what
they were doing. And then it started

61
00:04:20.439 --> 00:04:24.680
like okay, I'm just gonna do
these workouts I dated because they posted all

62
00:04:24.720 --> 00:04:27.240
the Yeah. I mean that's how
That's how I found Bart. It was

63
00:04:27.439 --> 00:04:30.319
just his vog channel and they're just
throwing workouts on his blood channel. Eighty

64
00:04:30.319 --> 00:04:32.560
percent of Asians in the gym,
you just watch Barn and that gets you

65
00:04:32.639 --> 00:04:35.240
in there, and then it probably
changes after that because it's like, oh,

66
00:04:35.920 --> 00:04:39.519
you get actually decently strong, you
can go somewhere and then you start

67
00:04:39.560 --> 00:04:43.920
falling like Russ and everyone else.
And then from there it just goes up

68
00:04:43.920 --> 00:04:46.879
because now it's like, oh,
I take it too serious and you want

69
00:04:46.879 --> 00:04:48.839
to go somewhere with it. So
just regular gym shit, just regular bro

70
00:04:48.920 --> 00:04:51.959
shit. And then a YouTube turned
in over it turns you into a power

71
00:04:53.879 --> 00:04:57.879
YouTube being Asian, and YouTube turned
to a new power after because of bar

72
00:04:57.959 --> 00:05:00.519
Kwond. There are a lot of
them. Yeah, I think my store

73
00:05:00.560 --> 00:05:04.120
is similar baseball. And then uh, I just wanted to find something I

74
00:05:04.120 --> 00:05:08.079
have, like an itch, I
a itch to like move. Uh so

75
00:05:08.160 --> 00:05:13.079
that went Jim, and then I
found Bart You would you do? Just

76
00:05:13.279 --> 00:05:15.319
google? Yeah? YouTube? Back
then they were like like you look up

77
00:05:15.439 --> 00:05:23.439
lifting. Who's gonna pop up first? Bart Omar you he who should not

78
00:05:23.560 --> 00:05:29.480
be named? Just get a name? Whoever? Bark Bell? And like,

79
00:05:29.639 --> 00:05:32.519
uh who else was in back then? I can't even remember. It's

80
00:05:32.519 --> 00:05:36.600
probably it yeah within like that circle, I mean that's Husman, I guess

81
00:05:38.079 --> 00:05:41.800
yeah, tuning how dare depends the
year. But like back then, like

82
00:05:41.879 --> 00:05:44.439
that got all of us, probably
in our twenties, we're all gonna name

83
00:05:44.519 --> 00:05:48.079
up the same six to like ten
people that was ingrained us back then and

84
00:05:48.120 --> 00:05:50.560
you guys are too ugly to follow
Guzman, so he followed me and Bart

85
00:05:53.199 --> 00:05:55.959
they had just like food too much, honest honestly, Yeah, yeah,

86
00:05:56.279 --> 00:05:58.480
that would just chatter. So it
was like all the other they're a little

87
00:05:58.480 --> 00:06:01.000
more relatable. Musman's always good,
Ben Big. That was just kind of

88
00:06:01.040 --> 00:06:03.639
like, you know something else.
I mean, I tried cutting, Like

89
00:06:03.720 --> 00:06:06.399
when I first started going into fitness, I tried cutting, Yeah, and

90
00:06:06.720 --> 00:06:10.199
I did not I yeah, cut
I cut to first of all, because

91
00:06:10.240 --> 00:06:13.199
I was like one sixty's to everyone. Yeah. Yeah, because you think

92
00:06:13.240 --> 00:06:15.000
you think you're gonna look like that
being you're like, oh I lost some

93
00:06:15.000 --> 00:06:18.079
weight. I was like I'm trying
to get a six bag and then I

94
00:06:18.120 --> 00:06:20.480
was like, nah, this ain't
fun. Yeah. And I found powerlifting

95
00:06:20.560 --> 00:06:24.439
early YouTube impressions. Yeah, it
was the pioneers of YouTube, and that's

96
00:06:24.439 --> 00:06:27.439
why I get you into it.
And again, having the athlete background,

97
00:06:28.120 --> 00:06:30.360
you're never I don't want to say
never, but if you're a real athlete,

98
00:06:30.800 --> 00:06:33.720
you're always gonna want to be active
in some type of way. Yeah.

99
00:06:33.839 --> 00:06:36.800
I do think it's weird to be
inspired to like step on stage.

100
00:06:38.240 --> 00:06:41.120
It's like bodybuilding training is just as
hard, if not hard, but like

101
00:06:41.839 --> 00:06:45.120
what you see or what like inspires
those folks, like that final the final

102
00:06:45.199 --> 00:06:48.279
product of like someone hitting a really
hard deadlift, like for you know,

103
00:06:48.439 --> 00:06:53.639
like that's just so different than being
on stage. Yeah, you know,

104
00:06:53.800 --> 00:06:59.240
like a different type of competition.
Yeah, And and even bodybuilders, very

105
00:06:59.279 --> 00:07:02.040
few I've talked to or watched interviews
or any of their done interviews are like,

106
00:07:02.160 --> 00:07:05.480
yeah, I can't wait to like
step on stage. It's more like

107
00:07:05.480 --> 00:07:10.839
the gruel and prep and like they've
probably been doing it for such like a

108
00:07:10.879 --> 00:07:14.279
long time, even the beginners though, I think, yeah, like maybe

109
00:07:14.279 --> 00:07:16.600
some of the girls because it is
like depending like bikini is a little bit

110
00:07:16.600 --> 00:07:20.160
more of a beauty pageant. You
have a certain walk and like freestyle type

111
00:07:20.199 --> 00:07:23.839
stuff like bodybuilders, I feel like, yeah, they want to get shredded,

112
00:07:24.319 --> 00:07:28.560
but people don't want to. Like
stepping on stage isn't like cool.

113
00:07:28.879 --> 00:07:30.680
Yeah, I don't think a lot
of people think it's that cool, Like

114
00:07:31.360 --> 00:07:34.959
it's not the number one goal.
Yeah, that's like that's like the end

115
00:07:35.000 --> 00:07:40.879
destination to show what your work and
then but then't even them they'll do like

116
00:07:40.879 --> 00:07:44.439
photo shoots afterwards in the gym or
somewhere else, Like that's all like for

117
00:07:44.480 --> 00:07:46.040
the history of it. But I
don't know that many people that are like,

118
00:07:46.079 --> 00:07:49.040
yeah, I want to like shave
tan and stand in a speedo.

119
00:07:49.639 --> 00:07:54.160
That just sounds so weird. Yeah, And even if you're bill for it

120
00:07:54.199 --> 00:07:57.759
and like bodybuilding, I think very
few like that's that's not the driver.

121
00:08:00.120 --> 00:08:03.439
I mean, like, I lifted
in high school and then kind of sporadically

122
00:08:03.480 --> 00:08:07.560
after that. But I was going
through some stuff when I was moving my

123
00:08:07.600 --> 00:08:13.720
office around at home and I found
a like cardiac profile thing I had done

124
00:08:13.759 --> 00:08:16.959
when I was twenty five, done
by a hospital. I was one hundred

125
00:08:16.959 --> 00:08:22.079
and fifty four pounds, fourteen and
a half percent body fat, and I

126
00:08:22.120 --> 00:08:26.680
looked like shit, I mean really, I mean I was, you know,

127
00:08:26.759 --> 00:08:28.399
I was. I was lifting on
my own and I wasn't like at

128
00:08:28.399 --> 00:08:31.799
home, yeah, and it wasn't
going to a gym or anything like that.

129
00:08:33.159 --> 00:08:37.519
I don't think I really got inspired
until my late thirties after that,

130
00:08:37.600 --> 00:08:41.679
And not that I didn't lift,
but I just didn't have the consistency.

131
00:08:43.480 --> 00:08:48.679
And then and then I got exposed
to power lifting really by watching him.

132
00:08:48.919 --> 00:08:52.440
The first my first experience with power
listening was watching a meet. And I

133
00:08:52.440 --> 00:08:56.600
think I've talked about this before just
how encouraging everybody was and how you know,

134
00:08:58.000 --> 00:09:03.639
how positive andronment was. Little did
I know that the behind the scenes

135
00:09:03.639 --> 00:09:05.799
of powerlifting is not always so positive. Yeah, I think that's anywhere though.

136
00:09:05.879 --> 00:09:09.759
You can the business, you know, yeah, eating the business side

137
00:09:09.759 --> 00:09:13.360
of things, you get shitters.
But that was you know, it was

138
00:09:13.480 --> 00:09:16.320
forty when that happened, So yeah, yeah, a little different path.

139
00:09:16.480 --> 00:09:18.720
I do think a lot of people
Obviously we have a young crowd here and

140
00:09:18.799 --> 00:09:22.320
powerlifting is cool because like YouTube and
social media. But I think generally speaking,

141
00:09:22.639 --> 00:09:26.960
people don't really find the gym until
their thirties consistently, maybe even forties,

142
00:09:28.039 --> 00:09:31.639
just because you are invincible in your
twenties. So if you're getting drunk

143
00:09:31.679 --> 00:09:33.159
every weekend, eating bullshit, you
couel see like a lot of people still

144
00:09:33.159 --> 00:09:37.240
look good and they still like generally
feel good because they don't know how bad

145
00:09:37.279 --> 00:09:39.840
it feels. Then they reach the
thirties and you're still drinking and eating like

146
00:09:39.879 --> 00:09:41.919
that, you're not gonna feel good. Like even me, you know,

147
00:09:41.919 --> 00:09:45.120
I just had a donut, like
I'll I swear to God, I'll feel

148
00:09:45.120 --> 00:09:48.279
that tomorrow. I'll burp it later
today. You make that you make that

149
00:09:48.320 --> 00:09:52.080
face dude, I'm a well oiled
machine. Bro, then you ain't feel

150
00:09:52.159 --> 00:09:54.440
a donut. No, you will, you will, you will. Well,

151
00:09:54.480 --> 00:09:56.960
all I eat is meat, and
then you're down. You're down right

152
00:09:58.000 --> 00:10:00.120
now. So yeah, no,
in general, Bro, I'm telling you,

153
00:10:00.200 --> 00:10:01.799
if you were eating I eat,
I've you didn't hear, Bro.

154
00:10:01.879 --> 00:10:05.559
I tracked my food from age twenty
to twenty five, everything that went in

155
00:10:05.600 --> 00:10:09.200
my mouth and didn't have a beer. Like I know what it feels to

156
00:10:09.240 --> 00:10:11.879
feel good because I've done it so
long. I know what it feels to

157
00:10:11.879 --> 00:10:15.200
feel bad. It's different if you
eat McDonald's all day, you're not going

158
00:10:15.279 --> 00:10:18.720
to know. True. Even if
you eat McDonald's like semi regularly, you're

159
00:10:18.759 --> 00:10:20.120
not gonna know. We offer this
man food on Friday. He said,

160
00:10:20.240 --> 00:10:22.879
no, yeah, yeah, yeah, it's different. Yeah, it's different

161
00:10:22.960 --> 00:10:26.600
now because you just don't know.
And then obviously yeah, I got into

162
00:10:26.639 --> 00:10:28.279
it. Similar story to everyone just
playing sports my whole life. I mean,

163
00:10:28.320 --> 00:10:31.120
I was thinking about it. I've
lifted, Like, first time I

164
00:10:31.159 --> 00:10:35.519
bench press was in seventh grade with
the program, with the plan, with

165
00:10:35.559 --> 00:10:37.039
the strength coach. You know,
do you remember the first time you bench

166
00:10:37.120 --> 00:10:41.159
pressed? I think I was in
high school. I think it was I

167
00:10:41.159 --> 00:10:45.559
think high school is normal for that's
probably seventhih grade, four year. They

168
00:10:45.559 --> 00:10:48.000
said it was like pe class.
Yeah, I probably because everybody else was

169
00:10:48.000 --> 00:10:50.080
doing a plate and they're like,
yo, you need to try a plate

170
00:10:50.159 --> 00:10:56.159
mine. Yeah ninety ass ah.
I think I ran up like one thirty.

171
00:10:56.440 --> 00:10:58.679
Oh, no, one sixty or
something like that. Best match in

172
00:10:58.720 --> 00:11:01.799
high school. Yeah, that's pretty
good. I refused the bench my high

173
00:11:01.840 --> 00:11:05.600
school, my highest school out bench. Ogi. No, I was like,

174
00:11:05.679 --> 00:11:09.639
I bench to seventy five. I
was like one ninety pounds, damn.

175
00:11:09.759 --> 00:11:11.960
And as a senior, No,
this is my first time I tried

176
00:11:11.000 --> 00:11:13.799
to. But no, I'm not
saying the first time I ever benched.

177
00:11:13.799 --> 00:11:16.039
It was two seventy five. Oh, I was saying high school. Afterg

178
00:11:16.039 --> 00:11:18.159
got folded, I never touched a
bench till I was twenty one. That's

179
00:11:18.200 --> 00:11:22.120
why your best and he had scared. He's got he's got internal defense.

180
00:11:22.120 --> 00:11:26.600
With any playing horizontal, you would
talking about the other episode driving around the

181
00:11:26.639 --> 00:11:31.039
fucking place, that's him. Yeah, around the bench around. I never

182
00:11:31.080 --> 00:11:33.480
was deadless. Every day, I
said, I just did it. I

183
00:11:33.559 --> 00:11:37.000
don't raise it like baseball. All
you did was shoulders, Yeah, shoulders

184
00:11:37.080 --> 00:11:39.840
like legs. I don't know.
I'm telling you the nineties baseball because all

185
00:11:39.840 --> 00:11:41.440
the guys I grew up with some
decent baseball players, although our high school

186
00:11:41.440 --> 00:11:43.759
team was never that great, Like
we had some guys playing some minor and

187
00:11:45.000 --> 00:11:48.960
my uh high school basketball coach played
in minor league baseball, so it's around

188
00:11:50.000 --> 00:11:52.000
you a good amount A lot of
those guys lifted, lifted. I think

189
00:11:52.039 --> 00:11:56.279
that was that era. Meyer was
more like resistance training and explosive. Yeah,

190
00:11:56.360 --> 00:12:00.360
yeah, there was a weird functional
we did, like space what we

191
00:12:00.360 --> 00:12:01.639
were functional. Yeah, when I
started coaching, it was kind of that

192
00:12:01.679 --> 00:12:05.120
era. Probably you being in high
school and was a bunch of pussy shit,

193
00:12:05.360 --> 00:12:11.320
such of misinformation. For sure.
You're taking an athletic fifteen year old

194
00:12:11.399 --> 00:12:16.200
kid an athletic one, and you're
gonna have them do ladder drills all day.

195
00:12:16.320 --> 00:12:18.639
That's not getting them better. That
little fuck's so good at ladder drills.

196
00:12:20.279 --> 00:12:22.919
That makes no sense. There's one
hundred and ten pound baseball player whose

197
00:12:22.960 --> 00:12:26.960
footwork is fine, and now he
goes to baseball, there's a bunch of

198
00:12:26.960 --> 00:12:28.759
footwork and catching. Then you have
him going to a gym and he's gonna

199
00:12:28.759 --> 00:12:33.799
do a bunch of footwork on a
ladder drill. Why buzzer. Now,

200
00:12:35.360 --> 00:12:41.080
that's why it doesn't make sense.
Yeah, thank you. No. All

201
00:12:41.120 --> 00:12:43.440
that shit in that era was when
I came up in strength and conditioning,

202
00:12:43.480 --> 00:12:48.440
when I was coaching a bunch of
kids and college athletes, pro athletes,

203
00:12:48.679 --> 00:12:52.000
that's what was going on. It
was a bunch of weird hand eye coordination

204
00:12:52.120 --> 00:12:54.759
shit with a bunch of kids.
That's the same idea as a lader drill.

205
00:12:54.759 --> 00:12:56.720
That's all they were doing. You
know, Like Nike came out with

206
00:12:56.720 --> 00:13:00.679
the whole line and they're like opening
gyms at the time. They shut down

207
00:13:00.799 --> 00:13:03.919
soon after, but they're doing like
an affiliate system kind of like CrossFit from

208
00:13:03.960 --> 00:13:07.399
like two thousand and seven to twenty
fifteen, and it was so much trash

209
00:13:07.679 --> 00:13:09.600
when they had like the games the
lateral direction. Yeah, that's what I'm

210
00:13:09.600 --> 00:13:13.519
saying. Those fun though. Yeah, sure it's fun, and yeah you

211
00:13:13.559 --> 00:13:15.399
want to have some fun, but
like, what are you doing in a

212
00:13:15.440 --> 00:13:18.799
baseball field the exact same thing.
We did a lot of rotational weight throwing

213
00:13:18.840 --> 00:13:22.559
a lot of medicine balls. Yeah, medicine balls are fine. Yeah,

214
00:13:22.600 --> 00:13:28.120
medicine balls. Yeah, we could
tell. You can talk club away,

215
00:13:28.159 --> 00:13:35.519
dude, you need to go bench
press obviously does only fans Matt just go

216
00:13:35.679 --> 00:13:39.480
og I O G. I.
Well, if I say, OK,

217
00:13:39.519 --> 00:13:41.080
you have these people be like That's
why I just said O G I because

218
00:13:41.120 --> 00:13:45.759
you even said it spelled it weird. I said, oh yeah, I
