WEBVTT
00:00:19.519 --> 00:00:21.120
What's your background?
00:00:21.280 --> 00:00:26.239
When did you get into fitness, being your best self?
00:00:26.559 --> 00:00:28.719
I would say what you're doing now.
00:00:28.960 --> 00:00:35.439
Yeah, I would say when we opened our nutrition bar, so nutrition had to show 15 years ago, 14 years ago.
00:00:35.679 --> 00:00:41.520
And that the reason was I wanted to get new results and I wanted to be able to lead by example.
00:00:41.759 --> 00:00:44.799
So I wanted to get the best shape that I could and be that.
00:00:44.960 --> 00:00:49.920
I never wanted to be a coach that someone said, Oh, you got to see my coach.
00:00:50.000 --> 00:00:52.320
She used to compete or she used to be really.
00:00:53.759 --> 00:00:54.079
Yeah.
00:00:54.399 --> 00:00:54.719
You know?
00:00:54.880 --> 00:00:56.240
So that was like super important to me.
00:00:56.320 --> 00:01:01.439
So I dug in deep, did a uh bodybuilding show, and then fell in love with that whole process.
00:01:01.600 --> 00:01:02.719
So that was it for me.
00:01:02.960 --> 00:01:06.560
And the nutrition star, are you doing that with your husband or yeah?
00:01:06.640 --> 00:01:08.319
So my husband has recently passed away.
00:01:08.480 --> 00:01:08.640
Okay.
00:01:08.959 --> 00:01:12.560
Um, but yes, we did open that together, and that was awesome.
00:01:12.719 --> 00:01:19.359
So we got to work together and work out together, and took him a little bit longer to get on board as far as the health side of it.
00:01:19.439 --> 00:01:22.879
Yeah, you know, but um he followed suit and then it was really.
00:01:23.200 --> 00:01:24.959
Do you mind if I asked what happened with that?
00:01:25.599 --> 00:01:27.680
Yeah, um, I mean, no, I don't mind.
00:01:28.159 --> 00:01:35.359
Um he was 50, really good shape, and his he had plaque buildup.
00:01:35.680 --> 00:01:40.319
So it was mild to moderate, is what we come to find out, which was not super concerning.
00:01:40.400 --> 00:01:44.239
Yeah, but a chunk of it broke off and then he collapsed and took him right away.
00:01:44.560 --> 00:01:44.719
Okay.
00:01:45.040 --> 00:01:45.200
Yeah.
00:01:45.680 --> 00:01:53.120
So they think possibly um hereditary, there are some heart challenges in his family or previous lifestyle.
00:01:53.280 --> 00:01:56.640
So way back in the day, he had a pretty fun party lifestyle.
00:01:57.200 --> 00:02:02.000
High, like their family runs high blood cholesterol levels and stuff.
00:02:02.319 --> 00:02:02.719
Yep.
00:02:03.120 --> 00:02:04.799
So sorry to hear that.
00:02:05.040 --> 00:02:05.920
Yeah, thank you.
00:02:06.239 --> 00:02:19.919
And do you so uh yeah, your uh your nutrition plates are you making meal plans for the pati uh people that come in or yeah, so there it think of like a cheers, like somebody my age would know what cheers is.
00:02:20.000 --> 00:02:22.639
The young kids don't know, but like a healthy bar, you don't know.
00:02:22.719 --> 00:02:23.759
How old are you?
00:02:24.080 --> 00:02:25.360
44.
00:02:25.919 --> 00:02:26.639
Did you know chairs?
00:02:26.800 --> 00:02:27.039
Come on.
00:02:27.280 --> 00:02:28.719
Cheers the bar where everybody knows your name.
00:02:28.800 --> 00:02:29.360
Oh, chairs.
00:02:32.400 --> 00:02:34.560
I got kicked out of chairs twice.
00:02:36.479 --> 00:02:37.520
Yeah, I know what chairs is.
00:02:37.759 --> 00:02:38.800
Sorry, it's funny.
00:02:38.960 --> 00:02:47.360
I thought chairs was like a name of like this health specific place that he knew that I have no idea about.
00:02:47.439 --> 00:02:50.240
So I automatically I'm like, I don't know that.
00:02:51.360 --> 00:02:52.639
I got kicked out of chairs twice.
00:02:53.199 --> 00:02:55.360
So you know, so it's like that, right?
00:02:55.520 --> 00:02:59.680
Well, we don't have to apologize for things we don't remember the next day because we're not drinking, right?
00:02:59.759 --> 00:03:02.159
Yeah, but it it creates that environment.
00:03:02.400 --> 00:03:07.919
So people come and they sit and they hang out at the bar, they get to know each other and kind of like root for each other and yeah, out.
00:03:08.080 --> 00:03:11.599
So we serve healthy smoothies, waffles, energy drinks, stuff like that.
00:03:11.759 --> 00:03:14.080
And then outside of that, we do fitness.
00:03:14.240 --> 00:03:17.280
So we were before Vince passed away, we were doing fitness every single day.
00:03:17.360 --> 00:03:17.439
Okay.
00:03:17.599 --> 00:03:24.639
So Monday through Saturday in the morning we had a free workout, and then sometimes we'll run stairs or we'll do sprints at the track, stuff like that.
00:03:24.879 --> 00:03:25.919
You work out every day?
00:03:26.159 --> 00:03:26.479
I do.
00:03:26.879 --> 00:03:31.039
Do you have a single break day or you feel like not typically?
00:03:31.199 --> 00:03:36.400
I mean, I'll listen to my body if I need it, but my break would be maybe like a hike, like take a walk or something, take it easy.
00:03:36.960 --> 00:03:37.759
Is an afternoon.
00:03:38.159 --> 00:03:40.800
I can't, I'm so like get up and go.
00:03:40.879 --> 00:03:44.159
It's weird with my psyche if I don't do something.
00:03:44.479 --> 00:03:46.879
Are there routines you follow every day?
00:03:47.120 --> 00:03:52.400
Oh, actually, this is like what I want to get into the routine of asking all our guests.
00:03:52.560 --> 00:03:54.879
When you wake up, what do you do?
00:03:55.280 --> 00:03:56.400
My whole day.
00:03:56.719 --> 00:03:58.960
Uh let's start with the morning.
00:03:59.199 --> 00:04:03.520
What do you do in the morning before you get going on your day?
00:04:03.759 --> 00:04:06.240
Supplements, exercise, stretching.
00:04:06.400 --> 00:04:06.639
Yep.
00:04:06.879 --> 00:04:11.680
No matter what it is, like before you get out the door, what do you like set out to do?
00:04:12.000 --> 00:04:14.960
So I get up three hours before I have to be wherever I have to be.
00:04:15.039 --> 00:04:17.040
So I get up between 2 and 3 a.m.
00:04:17.360 --> 00:04:19.279
So this is a very late night for me.
00:04:19.439 --> 00:04:21.199
Um, but so I get up between two and three.
00:04:21.279 --> 00:04:21.839
No, I'm just joking.
00:04:22.160 --> 00:04:23.040
We could have done this earlier.
00:04:23.279 --> 00:04:24.319
I'm just joking.
00:04:24.639 --> 00:04:31.279
Um, and then I get up and I go and I make my herbal tea and I have some immunity that I put in there.
00:04:31.600 --> 00:04:38.079
And then um what sorry uh Jack, what what's your herbal tea?
00:04:38.319 --> 00:04:46.399
So it's a green tea, and then it's a zinc echinacea, and then immunity essentials, which is uh like a multivitamin for the immune system.
00:04:46.720 --> 00:04:53.279
So it's a little bit of uh caffeine and mostly to boost your immune system.
00:04:53.519 --> 00:04:53.839
Yep.
00:04:54.000 --> 00:04:56.959
And so in the winter it'll be hot, in the summer it's cold.
00:04:57.439 --> 00:05:00.000
So I make that and then I turn on personal development.
00:05:00.240 --> 00:05:04.079
So usually I'll listen to different audiobooks or like audios.
00:05:04.160 --> 00:05:08.480
I have some of my favorites, depending on like what space I'm in and what I feel like listening to.
00:05:08.639 --> 00:05:11.600
So that will play the whole time, the whole morning while I'm getting ready.
00:05:11.759 --> 00:05:13.120
And then I'll make my breakfast.
00:05:13.199 --> 00:05:14.639
My breakfast every day is the same thing.
00:05:14.720 --> 00:05:18.560
So I do oats and blueberries and then protein powder in my oats.
00:05:18.879 --> 00:05:22.160
And then um, I'll put greens, like a green powder in there.
00:05:22.240 --> 00:05:22.639
Yeah.
00:05:22.879 --> 00:05:28.079
And then eat that, and then I'll check my emails and get into that and then do my social media.
00:05:28.240 --> 00:05:32.480
So I'm running my personal page and then both of my nutrition bars, I run those pages.
00:05:32.720 --> 00:05:41.439
So if I don't get all of that done before I get to my workout, which is the three hours after, yeah, I just feel like the day has gotten ahead of me, you know?
00:05:41.600 --> 00:05:45.360
So then I don't have to rush and I know that everything that I need to do is done.
00:05:45.439 --> 00:05:45.600
Yeah.
00:05:49.199 --> 00:05:50.800
Uh kind of yeah.
00:05:50.879 --> 00:05:52.160
So I'll do something every day.
00:05:52.240 --> 00:05:56.319
There, there's a couple days where we do our free workout that I'll run stairs with the group.
00:05:56.560 --> 00:05:58.639
So at the complex, we have some stairs.
00:05:58.720 --> 00:06:03.040
So we'll do that, get a little cardio warm-up, and then it's like a bodyweight resistance type workout.
00:06:03.360 --> 00:06:05.839
You just go up and down stairs, like yeah.
00:06:05.920 --> 00:06:08.319
So there's 11 different flights in our complex.
00:06:08.399 --> 00:06:10.160
So we'll go up and down each one four times.
00:06:10.319 --> 00:06:13.040
So it takes about 15, 20 minutes, depending on the person.
00:06:13.279 --> 00:06:18.959
So kind of warm us up there, and then we'll do bodyweight resistance or like light kettlebells and dumbbells.
00:06:19.360 --> 00:06:33.199
Wrestling practice in high school, we used to have to pull carry uh our partners that were the same weight up like a good like what 30 stairs repeatedly, like five times.
00:06:33.439 --> 00:06:34.560
Yeah, the stadium stairs.
00:06:34.639 --> 00:06:35.759
Yeah, stadium stairs.
00:06:36.160 --> 00:06:37.120
I like stairs.
00:06:37.439 --> 00:06:40.560
I like stairs because I feel like it's muscle building cardio, you know?
00:06:40.720 --> 00:06:49.519
Yeah, it's uh the angle also probably gives you a benefit for your knee joint, like fluid dynamics.
00:06:49.759 --> 00:07:09.439
Yeah, again, I I can't tell you for a fact, but like they're like just going from what Sarah tells me the the um Peloton riding a cycle and having that ex like flexion and extension helps the fluid flow.
00:07:09.680 --> 00:07:16.399
So it probably like keeps the cartilage and stuff well like like intact.
00:07:16.800 --> 00:07:21.279
Just like the knees over toes guy, how he does like over over flexion.
00:07:21.839 --> 00:07:40.879
You don't want to you don't want to break that down, like you don't want to do it like where it's like breaking your cartilage down where you're gonna need a knee replacement, but you do want to have everything flowing fluidly to make sure like you're 80 years old and you don't need a knee replacement.
00:07:40.959 --> 00:08:06.240
Yeah, well that's the biggest thing is yeah, it's like yeah, my posterior chain used to be so tight, and like I've kind of started doing the knees over toes guy, and like just I bought one of the machines and doing like Nordic curls every morning almost helps out quite a bit, and then doing sit-ups kind of opens up my psoas muscles on that machine because you're overextending.
00:08:06.560 --> 00:08:18.879
I would I was doing uh like making sure my like pretty much backside was very well stretched, like hamstring stretches where I can touch my palms to the floor.
00:08:20.319 --> 00:08:29.120
We get out, do my pec stretches, make sure like that way throughout the day I'm standing up tall or taller than I was.
00:08:29.519 --> 00:08:33.039
Yeah, surgery just tightens up your posterior chain and then your chest.
00:08:33.679 --> 00:08:34.799
You end up like a vulture.
00:08:34.879 --> 00:08:40.240
Yeah, like oh god, this meat isn't even dead yet, and I'm still a vulture.
00:08:40.720 --> 00:08:50.799
Um but open it up, but I noticed like when I was like lifting more, I was doing all the things to get my posture straight.
00:08:51.120 --> 00:09:12.960
But what I noticed was stuff from like hip flexors and my quads end up having issues because I wasn't stretching those at all, like just simple quad stretches, simple like uh lunges, like those those things that you wouldn't even think about doing.
00:09:13.519 --> 00:09:16.720
I was just like, Oh, I guess I gotta do this for balance.
00:09:17.519 --> 00:09:18.399
You have to do it.
00:09:18.559 --> 00:09:25.279
I notice, like as I'm getting older, I feel young, except like you get out of bed and you just don't move quite as fast.
00:09:25.679 --> 00:09:27.120
Yeah, do you measure biceps?
00:09:27.440 --> 00:09:28.639
No, why not?
00:09:28.879 --> 00:09:29.440
I don't know.
00:09:29.919 --> 00:09:34.480
You should you should do that and then show it off when you come on to podcasts like this.
00:09:34.720 --> 00:09:40.879
No, if I say something and you like you don't like, be like, dude, how how wide are your biceps?
00:09:41.440 --> 00:09:41.840
Nice.
00:09:41.919 --> 00:09:43.279
I'll have to start doing that.
00:09:43.600 --> 00:09:46.480
My IT bands, you guys IT bands get tight.
00:09:46.720 --> 00:09:47.360
Yep, yeah.
00:09:47.679 --> 00:09:48.879
I have to roll those in the mornings.
00:09:49.519 --> 00:09:52.960
A lot of a lot of times you you gotta meet Sarah.
00:09:53.840 --> 00:09:56.000
Wife's a very good PT.
00:09:56.559 --> 00:10:06.879
Um, a lot of times where I think it's uh pains close to my patello femoral joint is stemming from my IT.
00:10:08.159 --> 00:10:17.440
And there there's very simple stretches, and just like, oh, it only took like 10 seconds to do that like yeah, twice a day.
00:10:17.679 --> 00:10:20.879
Isn't it amazing though how many people won't take the time to do it?
00:10:21.200 --> 00:10:21.600
I don't.
00:10:21.679 --> 00:10:43.519
I know what's I didn't for a while because I I wasn't even like running your own company, I wasn't even working out, and then my way back was like once I started peptides and GLP, I I started doing resistance bands, and that's like I do that, and that definitely got me energized and it's like got me more fluid and moving around without injuring myself.
00:10:43.840 --> 00:10:46.240
For me, it was like not drinking.
00:10:46.559 --> 00:10:50.559
If I drink, I don't, I'm useless the next day.
00:10:50.720 --> 00:10:59.279
So yeah, if I don't, like I can sneak in like a 20-minute workout, and that's all it takes uh for most people.
00:10:59.679 --> 00:11:00.000
Yeah.
00:11:00.320 --> 00:11:02.000
Not not to look like you.
00:11:02.480 --> 00:11:05.360
So have you guys heard of rebound bouncing?
00:11:05.679 --> 00:11:07.279
No, I've seen it.
00:11:07.519 --> 00:11:09.440
So that's another thing I do a couple days a week.
00:11:09.519 --> 00:11:11.039
I teach a class and now talk about the knees.
00:11:11.840 --> 00:11:13.759
So it's 80% less impact on the joints.
00:11:13.840 --> 00:11:18.320
Yeah, so like imagine the trampolines that they do, it but it's in your shoes.
00:11:18.399 --> 00:11:19.840
It's like the old moon boots.
00:11:20.000 --> 00:11:22.159
Yeah, yeah, I'm like Kramer's.
00:11:22.639 --> 00:11:23.440
So I teach that.
00:11:23.600 --> 00:11:24.159
It's so fun.
00:11:25.120 --> 00:11:35.360
Like they look like uh like these, they have like you can like three pounds, they have springs, like shells and then like a spring.
00:11:37.840 --> 00:11:48.000
And so we have like sweet moves that we dance, and we have like a fast beat, and yeah, my class is typically middle-age and above, like 40 to 70 year olds.
00:11:48.399 --> 00:11:50.960
Yeah, and it's so cute to watch them out there, yeah.
00:11:51.200 --> 00:11:55.519
But you burn like twice the amount of calories as if you were they're called rebound, yeah.
00:11:55.759 --> 00:11:56.720
Rebounds.
00:11:57.519 --> 00:11:58.799
So that's been my new thing.
00:11:58.879 --> 00:12:01.279
I love it, it's different, it's really fun.
00:12:01.600 --> 00:12:04.559
How how's like joint-wise and stuff?
00:12:04.720 --> 00:12:09.360
Um how's that like with a workout like that?
00:12:09.600 --> 00:12:10.159
Those things.
00:12:10.320 --> 00:12:12.639
Oh that for for that, it's amazing.
00:12:12.799 --> 00:12:14.320
Yeah, 80% less impact.
00:12:14.480 --> 00:12:19.679
Yeah, so I have a couple clients that wear knee braces, they can do that class no problem, but they can't do the other things.
00:12:19.919 --> 00:12:22.799
What's the age range of your uh clients?
00:12:24.000 --> 00:12:30.000
Right now, I would say the majority of mine are gonna probably be 30 to 65.
00:12:30.720 --> 00:12:32.240
Okay, yeah.
00:12:32.639 --> 00:12:36.559
10 years ago when we opened the bar, I the the young ones loved me.
00:12:36.639 --> 00:12:38.559
Now I'm like getting too old for them, I think.
00:12:38.879 --> 00:12:41.600
Does that help with like fascial release and stuff?
00:12:42.159 --> 00:12:44.639
The bouncing, yeah, yeah, for sure.
00:12:44.799 --> 00:12:45.759
I'd imagine so.
00:12:45.919 --> 00:12:46.080
Yeah.
00:12:47.919 --> 00:12:51.600
I mean, they're they're like a little nerdy, but I love that.
00:12:51.919 --> 00:12:53.120
It doesn't bother me.
00:12:53.440 --> 00:12:56.639
Uh if it's helping with your health, that's like it's all good.
00:12:56.879 --> 00:13:00.159
And then you become that like nerdy bouncy girl, and then people expect it.
00:13:00.240 --> 00:13:03.919
So it's how about stability-wise, like they're good.
00:13:04.000 --> 00:13:12.000
So as long as you keep your body centered, yeah, and don't do any crazy like leaning, yeah, you know, or kicking out and getting off balance.
00:13:12.240 --> 00:13:13.200
I'd imagine you won't fall.
00:13:14.879 --> 00:13:21.679
Well, your core, you're probably engaging your core, your balance, I mean your your it's muscle toning, your endurance.
00:13:22.000 --> 00:13:33.120
And I think the more you like do that, like we've talked about this in the past, yeah, like that also helps with longevity in the mind, where like it like fights off dementia.
00:13:33.279 --> 00:13:41.360
Like if if you if you lose balance on a regular basis, you're most likely gonna lose memory too.
00:13:41.679 --> 00:13:44.960
Well, Tony Robbins always talks about jumping on a trampoline, yeah.
00:13:45.120 --> 00:13:50.480
Like before this is pretty much yeah, he jumps on a trampoline even on stage.
00:13:50.559 --> 00:13:54.320
He usually takes one on stage with him and he jumps on a trampoline.
00:13:54.799 --> 00:13:56.799
And honestly, it you feel like a kid.
00:13:56.879 --> 00:14:02.159
I it's it's a great way to, it's not easy, but it's like so fun that you forget how hard it is.
00:14:02.320 --> 00:14:07.120
Yeah, the club my class is only 30 minutes long, it's like enough, but we get we go perform now, yeah.

00:14:19.440 --> 00:14:24.320
We have to take this witches paddle, like go full, like hardcore.
00:14:24.799 --> 00:14:27.759
This is where where it happened, this is where the witches died for this.
00:14:28.240 --> 00:14:30.080
It's uh it's a trip, the witches paddle.
00:14:30.559 --> 00:14:31.519

00:14:31.600 --> 00:14:41.919
I I just saw something about like this witch cult that was like kind of crazy today, and like one of the real I'm like, I don't even know how this showed up on my feeds.
