Mind, mind, up with your hosts.
Salda Stefano, Adam Schaefer, and Justin Andrews.
In high school, my church group and I, we used to get into the church because I had the keys to it.
And we used to hook up to the big, where they used to do that with James Bond.
Yeah, we did that.
Golden night. Wow. We're so similar. Yes, we are. Yeah.
Exactly what we said we should play golden eye at the church on the huge like I don't even know how big that is. So that you do one shot one kill.
Yeah, I had to do that.? I did. So they said, we trust you. Yeah. I know, in that weird.
Did you do?
I was that good of a kid.
You still wasn't having sex.
Well, I know what I'm saying.
He was doing, he was doing grubby,
grubby, I'm still like a genius.
Yeah, they were doing hand jobs and stuff.
So, yeah.
Yeah, but we felt, we felt really guilty afterwards.
That's, that's, that's, that's,
I wasn't asking you.
The guilt was just great.
I'm gonna put you on the spot right now.
I'm actually, people in church.
I'm gonna put you on the spot.
And this is good because this is like confession.
This is not, it's gonna help ensure that you don't go, this is good because this is like confession this is not okay
It's gonna help ensure that you don't go with the same place. I'm going okay. Okay. Good. Yeah
What was the worst things you did in the church? No
Let's not go there actually I never did I never man. I was that I mean
I was at least that good of a kid where I mean that was that's like still there's day don't do that still is day
I'm like yeah, man. I like if we do anything in the church. No, bro. I was that that's like still there's day don't do that still there's day of that. Yeah, man, I'm like, I like if we do anything in the
church. No, bro, that's half the fun. No, dude, I was
gonna say it. Yeah, yeah, all that's it. This is why some of
them they don't like to sit next to you on a plane. So we get
struck down because it's so so wrong. Right. All the
stain glass. Yeah, come on on man, it's weird.
And the pews are all hard.
Twisted.
Yeah, you know, it's funny.
My cousin did.
I never did.
God forbid something.
What do you mean your cousin did?
My cousin, my cousin, my cousin,
fold around with a pastor's daughter,
oh, wow.
What a wonder.
In one of the, what is a successful guy now, isn't he?
Not so much.
Really?
No, not so much.
My theory, see.
The theory back there.
Definitely. I feel like now if we're doing God still punishing him
I feel like if we're doing something now together and
Something bad happens you're gonna blame it on me now 100% I will oh, it's your a sinner. Yeah, is that my fault?
Absolutely, I didn't do any oh I think I did do something in a church once really?
Yeah, I think I I don't know if I want you to admit it
I think I made I don't know if I want you to admit it.
I think I made out with a girl,
and then we did the hand stuff.
Oh, the hand stuff.
A little bit.
Oh, you know what I will give you?
Like inside, or was it on the premises?
No, it was like a Christian Bible study thing
that I tried to go to for a second.
Oh.
And that's a bold move.
Yeah, and then we went,
where were we in the bathroom?
I think we were in the bathroom, and we started fooling around a little bit. God. Yeah, she is
Use every press that memory. I you know what you know, you shouldn't that a traffic you just surfaced one for me
So here we go. We I knew I would I would get something
Well, uh, just this one time it summer camp well, okay, so did you, did you guys go to Humelike?
Did you go to Humelike?
Yes, okay, I went to Humelike.
Okay, so I went to, if you don't know,
if you're in Ranch, right, if you don't know,
if you're in Meadow Ranch, a week long camp that you go to.
It's so Christian.
It's a ton of fun.
Yeah, right.
I mean, there's okay to mess around.
Yeah, so it's not in the, you know,
that was very, very, very,
you go up, I mean, think about it.
You go up to the, you're up there for a week.
You have a bunch of, I mean,
there's probably, gotta,
let me think how big that it was probably 500 to 1,000 kids all together for a week,
being chaperone by all these half adults, 20 years old, your counselor is 20 years old.
And you know, he's probably going home and smoking pot and banging his girlfriend.
So he's the one who's that's counseling you while you're on these trips, right?
So you can probably get away with more than what they probably anticipate.
But I do remember having a girlfriend and she went at the same time and I do remember messing
around with her on the bus on the way there. There you go. On the way there and the way back. But I
also do remember her crying afterwards and just feeling guilty for it and just that whole just.
I feel like that will get a lightning bolt on your cock for that.
I feel like it would lead to more,
like real passionate experiment.
Oh, it does.
Yeah, absolutely.
It's so repressed.
Yeah.
That when she lets, oh, I can't do this.
When she finally lets it out, she binges.
Yeah.
You know what I mean?
You know what I mean?
Wow.
Well, I admit that's what happened to me.
You know, I was that the repressed kid who,
because I held that all in until I was 20 years old and then I just...
I actually saw that a lot.
Yeah, I'm that story for sure.
Well, I see, my mom would always present me
with a summer camp every summer like,
hey, do you wanna go on this, whatever?
And I was like, hell no, I'm intimidated.
Because I was a total mama's boy, right?
A time mom, she did, yeah, made my food,
made my bed, well, I didn't clean my room time moved out when I was like total mama's boy, right? A tie and mom. She did, yeah, made my food, made my bed.
Well, I didn't clean my room time moved out
when I was like, it's-
Oh my God.
Oh, that explains so much now.
It explains so much now.
Oh, dude.
It explains so much.
Oh, no, I didn't learn how to wash clothes
or do any of that shit until I moved out at a necessity.
So, like going to a summer camp, I was like,
who's gonna do my shit?
Like, I'm gonna die.
I'm gonna starve or whatever.
These clothes don't fold themselves.
Yeah.
It just seemed to help.
Yeah, I just seemed like I'm already at this extravagant hotel
that I live at every day called Mom's house.
Why would I go a summer camp?
So I'm assuming then that-
I was just being smart.
Jessica is super domesticated then.
You know what's funny?
So here's some lessons that you learn as you become older.
This is a story time.
Tell us story time with sound.
Let me just paint the picture here.
You remember Mr. Rogers, how you would start before a story.
Same exact thing.
You just grabbed your sock, crossed your leg over.
Okay.
Everybody, let's get ready for this.
We should do what, we should do a YouTube.
We should do a YouTube next set.
Oh, should be my neighbor.
Can we, the next YouTube Doug that we have to shoot,
can we do it this way?
We're sad we'll be like putting a shoe on.
Hey kids, the kids follow along.
Yeah, follow trolley. Jing Jing Jing Jing Jing Jing Jing Jing Jing Jing Jing Jing Jing Jing Jing Jing Jing Jing Jing Jing Jing Jing Jing Jing Jing Jing Jing Jing Jing Jing Jing Jing Jing Jing Jing Jing Jing Jing Jing Jing Jing Jing Jing Jing Jing Jing Jing Jing Jing Jing Jing Jing Jing Jing Jing Jing Jing Jing Jing Jing Jing Jing Jing Jing Jing Jing Jing Jing Jing Jing Jing Jing Jing Jing Jing Jing Jing Jing Jing Jing Jing Jing Jing Jing Jing Jing Jing Jing Jing Jing Jing Jing Jing Jing Jing Jing Jing Jing Jing Jing Jing Jing Jing Jing Jing Jing Jing Jing Jing Jing Jing Jing Jing Jing Jing Jing Jing Jing Jing Jing Jing Jing Jing Jing Jing Jing Jing Jing Jing Jing Jing Jing Jing Jing Jing Jing Jing Jing Jing Jing Jing Jing Jing Jing Jing Jing Jing Jing Jing Jing Jing Jing Jing Jing Jing Jing Jing Jing Jing Jing Jing Jing Jing Jing Jing Jing Jing Jing Jing Jing Jing Jing Jing Jing Jing Jing Jing Jing Jing Jing Jing Jing Jing Jing Jing Jing Jing Jing Jing Jing Jing Jing Jing Jing Jing Jing Jing Jing Jing Jing Jing Jing Jing Jing Jing Jing Jing Jing Jing Jing Jing Jing Jing Jing Jing Jing Jing Jing Jing Jing Jing Jing Jing Jing Jing Jing Jing Jing Jing Jing Jing Jing Jing Jing Jing Jing Jing Jing Jing Jing Jing Jing Jing Jing Jing Jing Jing Jing Jing Jing Jing Jing Jing Jing Jing Jing Jing Jing Jing Jing Jing Jing Jing Jing Jing Jing Jing Jing Jing Jing Jing Jing Jing Jing Jing Jing Jing Jing Jing Jing Jing Jing Jing Jing Jing Jing Jing Jing Jing Jing Jing Jing Jing Jing Jing Jing Jing Jing Jing Jing Jing Jing Jing Jing Jing Jing Jing Jing Jing Jing Jing Jing Jing Jing Jing Jing Jing Jing Jing Jing Jing Jing Jing Jing Jing Jing Jing Jing to this. We're gonna watch an old Mr. Rogers before. Look at my hair. I know it's so perfect.
Let's talk about fitness.
No, so here's what I learned.
He's a better man.
So here's what I learned.
This is bad.
You always gonna take it too far.
So far.
So definitely was a mama's boy.
Didn't know how to do any of this shit.
Moved out when I bought my, I had bought a gym.
No, I didn't move out when I was 18.
I was 21, my bad. So I didn't move out when I was 18. I was 21, my bad.
So I didn't do shit to tell us 21.
Moved out and I bought shares of a large share
of a health club down in Palm Springs area.
And then I kind of had to learn,
had to do certain things.
But see, I grew up in this very traditional,
old school Sicilian household where my dad,
he worked and my mom did a lot of stuff at home.
And so it was just kind of that just the way I was, right?
So I didn't do any of these things, I didn't understand any of these things.
Now they didn't understand them, but it was so foreign to me that doing any of those things
felt almost like I wasn't supposed to.
It's very hard to explain because looking back, I can see how ignorant I was in that
regard. So then I get married very young, and my wife did all the stuff in the house.
Everything. She washed clothes, she did the dishes, she cooked the meals.
I didn't do a goddamn thing in the house, which is a very bad thing.
But I didn't do it for a long time. This is a big problem between me and her
for a very, very, very long time.
And through, as I got older,
and she continued to complain about it,
and I had my complaints too,
what ends up happening when you have an argument,
like when you complain about things with each other,
with you and your girlfriend or spouse or whatever,
is that you have a tendency to fail to see their side
because all you can see is your side,
and you consider your side more important,
which is what I did.
Well, my shit's more important than yours.
You just want me to do dishes, but I want to do X, Y, and Z.
And I'm not going to see what they are because I won't put anybody on blast, but mine's
more important, right?
I can hire a maid to do that shit.
So I would always, you know, I would kind of rationalize it that way.
Well, for the last, I'd say, a few years, maybe a couple of years of my marriage, I really
tried to step up and do more around the house, but it was a process,
like, and I would always feel like I needed,
and I know a lot of women are gonna relate to this, right?
I wanted like recognition, like,
hey, I just watched the dishes,
like, didn't I do a good fucking job?
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
And she would look at me like,
motherfucker, you just, that's all you did,
like, you just fucked up.
And I'd be like, well, you're not grateful,
because I'm not grateful.
Congratulations.
It was a very immature mindset that I had
and that I can totally see.
So towards the end of my marriage,
when I was already, it wasn't gonna work.
And it was like the last, you know,
few years or so, it was like, it was just,
it was a futility.
I did a lot of these things in the house,
not because I was trying to necessarily reverse things,
but because I saw her side of it,
I could see she was right.
And it's like, it's my house too.
And I started taking more ownership and I valued it more.
So now, fast forward now, I do a lot of the things in the house,
not because I have to, but because I actually take pride
and enjoy it, which is really weird to say, right?
Like I enjoy doing laundry, I enjoy washing dishes,
I enjoy vacuuming the house.
And so we both do a lot of the stuff in the house,
but it's not one person over the other.
But if she had met me 15 years ago,
I would literally be taking my clothes off,
leaving them where I took them off.
Like, I was that guy.
Kind of like what you do in the studio.
Yeah.
You know, that's impressive that you have.
That's impressive actually that you have.
Boom boom, cheers.
Because that's a, I mean, someone who's been trained
that way from his mom and then to move into a relate
which you know.
And no, I'm not saying these wrong, my mom.
This is just the way.
No, no, no, that's very good.
It's a wonderful mother, my father, great father,
good people.
Kidding, that's awesome if you had that, you know.
It's just, it's just, it's weird.
I'll tell you what, and you know what,
it's not just, it's the culture.
It's that Southern Italian old school culture.
When I was dating my ex wife, right? So we're 16 years old and we're dating.
I remember I went to her house and I knew her family for a long time. So I knew these people already.
We were eating dinner and I tried to be polite by grabbing my plate and bring it into the sink.
And her old school, Calabresi father looks at many laughs. He goes tie, and he goes, put that down, that's it for girls to do.
This is literally what he said in front of his daughter.
She got real pissed off.
That's just kind of the attitude almost.
It's very, looking back, it's very immature for me to have that mentality.
Well, I mean, it is and it is.
I mean, you were trained that way.
Like you said, your mom was like that.
Your first encounter with your wife and her father,
like, I mean, you've been,
so that's why I said, you know, kudos to you
to be able to, you know,
been raised this way, your first marriage was this,
and then to be able to transition out of that.
That takes a lot of self-awareness to say,
hey, I'm not very good at this, and I'm not working.
Oh, I was horrible.
And I tell you what, looking back,
this is what I don't know,
this is what I took out of divorce.
Very, very difficult process,
but when I look at it, I really, really try to,
because it's easy to see what the other person's doing wrong.
That's all you'll focus on for fuck's sake,
when you're in a situation,
I'll be focused on what the other person's doing wrong.
You don't wanna focus on what you're doing wrong,
and you don't wanna consider that maybe your half of the other side of this equation of this thing not working, right?
So I just really try to examine and understand maybe some of the shit that I did that wasn't
the greatest and try to make change all that stuff. And through the process, it's like
I enjoy doing these things now, you know what I mean?
Well, this goes into like, I'm the'm the oldest of five right and I always stress
to my younger siblings about you know dating for a while and having these relationships
and not getting married and in these long term relationships when you're younger because
I think that's a part of this process of learning about yourself you know is you have to
I mean after every relationship,
I mean, I always felt like I had huge takeaways.
There was never a relationship that I had
that I left that relationship and I looked back and said,
oh my God, she was just fucking crazy.
And oh, she was just this or she.
And nothing for you.
Yeah, and nothing for every time I left a relationship,
like it was like, okay, what did I take from this?
But what areas did did were our rough areas or we
We didn't see eye-to-eye and what part of that did I play this role in you know
So and you know before girlfriends of the past because they probably look at my relationship now like this motherfucker
What when he get that like ten years ago, you know, so dude I I was 20, I mean, let me give you a little context here.
I was 21 years old, did not know at all how to operate a washing machine at all.
I had no fucking idea. I literally didn't know what soap to use.
I don't know where to put the fucking soap.
I don't know what buttons to push. The first time I did laundry, I'll never forget, I had an apartment
because I had bought this gym and moved down there
So actually when I was a little at least at least I had the courage to do that right
But I'm there and I remember going downstairs to the laundry room the apartment complex laundry room
And I'm holding my clothes and I had bought in
Five different products of soap and shicks. I don't know what the fuck to have and I'm sending it
I'm looking at like I don't know what the fuck to do and this lady was doing her laundry and I was like excuse me
It's like can you help like, I don't know what the fuck to do. And this lady was doing her laundry, and I was like, excuse me. It's like, can you help me?
Like, I don't know.
And she's like, what do you mean, you don't know?
Like, I've never done this before.
So she had to tell me you separate the whites
from the dark, she used hot water, this cold water.
And I was like, this is too complicated.
Then I go do the fucking dish.
I go to do the dishes in my dishwasher,
and never operated one of my entire life.
And I use liquid soap in it.
You know the one that you use when you wash them
with my hand? Suds used liquid soap in it. You know the one that you used when you wash them by hand?
Suds filled up the entire apartment.
Because I had no idea that that would happen.
I didn't know any of the shit.
Cooking, I lived on tuna fish sandwiches, protein shakes,
and bars.
Like I had no-
See, that's still my problem.
It's horrible.
It's really cooking.
Except for like barbecuing, but you know,
it's like any fucking stereotypical dude.
It is. Yeah, I'm totally that guy, right? I can do stuff of fire. Yeah, it's like any fucking stereotypical dude. It is.
Yeah, I'm totally that guy.
I can do stuff of fire.
Yeah, I can burn stuff outside, no problem.
And like perfectly.
Yeah, but it's like going into the stove and, you know,
oils and all that shit.
I'm so lost.
Yeah.
Doug's laughing because Doug's one who normally prepares for it.
Doug's an awesome cook. Yeah, he's awesome. Doug's a because Doug's one who normally prepares for it. Doug's an awesome cook.
Yeah, he's awesome.
I'm fucking terrible.
So I, you know, yeah, I'm going to give myself away right here.
Katrina kind of knows already because she's seen it a couple times.
I don't cook.
She's totally domesticated.
Although that transition has happened in the six years that we've been together.
I like that, you know, but I was my parents when we were younger, which I think they're
in, you know, their I was my parents when we were younger, which I think they're in, you know,
their intention wasn't for teaching.
I think my parents had extra kids
so they could take, so we could all take care
of the shit around the house,
but they presented it to us.
We need more help on the hemorrhoid.
Yeah, yeah, exactly.
They presented it to us like,
we're teaching you good, good things here.
You know, it's like, no, you're not.
You just, you want to clean and cook here.
So we had, I mean, all of us had things we were responsible in the house,
everything from laundry to dishes, and stuff like that. Once a week, each one of the kids had a
night they were responsible for cooking and setting the table and doing so. So we did that.
Yeah, so I had all these things that were built into me and I for sure picked up on, you know,
cooking with my mom in the kitchen and learn how to cook. But I also learned too that I hated it.
I didn't like it.
I just don't have patience for that.
And I love a great meal that Doug prepares or Katrina makes,
but I just don't like that process.
Some people find it very relaxing and therapeutic.
And Doug's talked about this before.
Like he really enjoys cooking and doing that.
Like it was just never me.
So I've left that completely and I love the fact
that Katrina does that and every once in a while,
I'll surprise her and I will prepare or make something
and she's just like, damn, this is good.
Like I thought you can't.
Yeah.
You act like you can't cook or you can't do this.
It's not, you don't enjoy it.
Yeah, I don't swear I'm at too.
I'm just like, I'm not interested in it.
I love cooking, man. I'm just not, I think that's where I'm at too. I'm just like, I'm not interested in it. I love cooking, man.
I'm just not, what's so weird about that is like,
for me, like with food, like, people always ask me
for recipe ideas or something like,
I don't have no fucking idea.
You know what I mean?
It just doesn't even cross my mind.
Like, it's so weird because I'm so creative
in every other thing I could possibly think of.
But I just can't like,
I'm gonna put this with this.
They're like chicken salt.
There we go.
I'm fucked up.
I'm great.
And like even I would just like make the same thing
every day, I don't give a shit.
So does, does Courtney 100% prepare all your food
or how do you normally eat?
Like what you're eating?
What you're eating?
I'll make my own stuff like I'm fine with that
but like for the family, yeah, she does like,
she prepares it all that, like I do the lunch.
Yeah, like what's the date with the date?
I do the lunch isn't the breakfast for the boys,
like if it's like on the go, you know,
it's stuff that's already she's made
and I'm like repackaging it or whatever.
But yeah, she totally makes like awesome meals all the time.
Well, let me ask you guys this,
who decorates your house?
Who sets up that?
Like what the furniture looks like? Neither of us do, that's a problem. Well, let me ask you guys this, who decorates your house? Who sets up that? Like what the furniture looks like?
Neither of us do.
That's a problem.
Oh, she just like me was cooking with that.
She just has no idea of like what to put up on the walls.
And so our house just looks like barren.
We need help.
Yeah, we know that.
See Jessica loves, she's and she's very good at it.
And her style, I love.
She's got kind of this Bohemian kind of style
and she really does think outside the box
and she loves doing it.
And I could kind of care less for the most part.
So it's like here, you do that kind of stuff
and if you need me to buy something, I'll buy something.
That's it.
Picking paint.
Oh my God.
It was not the worst process.
Whatever.
So I'm totally that person in our relationship. Although I will say this in which
is what Katrina will say this that, you know, she taught, we talk about this all time,
that looking back, which she does the same thing to me. So I don't feel guilty about this,
is that she was a very tomboyish when we first met. It's one of the things that I love about
her is she's not only my girl, but also like my best friend and so
Well, but here's the thing so there are certain things that I that I think that that someone would
Generalize or classify as
Feminine that I enjoy like I like photos of us and our relationship and the things that we've done
But I don't like taking them. I like my house decorated very nice and I like things kept.
You like your house decorated seasonally too, I noticed.
Yes, I do.
And all these things for the July.
So when we first started dating, I did this thing where every year I would make this
photo album book that I had made on Shutterfly and I would make it you know our first year
relationship our second year of relationship and
Then I kind of stopped doing it and she realizes that though
I didn't like doing that stuff. I like having that stuff. I was trying to train her to do that
And then the same thing the same thing goes for like the decorating the house like I was the one who started doing all this
Now that being said she's kept all these things up now,
which I absolutely love,
and it wasn't something that she did before,
because we both enjoy these things.
I just, I don't like to be the one to do it all the time,
but I like to be the one that, like,
I like to receive these things.
I like to be in the house that's decorated that.
It's been a cruel, it's been a cool evolution
of seeing us how long we've been together
and to see that transition.
But when we first started dating,
she was under the impression
that I like doing all that stuff.
And I remember years later,
like communicating like,
no, I don't like doing that stuff.
But I like it.
I like my house, I like winter time coming in
and it feels like, you know,
fucking the North Pole when I get in there.
I love that.
I like my house spotless and clean all the time.
I like all these things.
And at one point in my life, either one,
I had to do it for myself or I had somebody do it for me,
realizing that I enjoy it,
but also realizing that I either need help
or I would like her to do some of those things.
So we've definitely learned to give and take
in all these areas and she's definitely become this super,
when we first met, like I came to her house,
there was not a single, like she'd live there for two years
Right, I moved after I sold my house I moved in with her and when I moved in like nothing was on the walls
And she like it which reminds me of like when I the very first apartment
I ever lived in when I was 17 years old I moved out of my own and her house looked like that house
That the first one I live in a 17 it was like, you know that the couches didn't match each other
There was no nothing on the walls.
It was pure function.
Oh, totally, totally.
It's like a place to sleep and so on that.
Yeah, so our places have evolved quite a bit
since we've been together and it's been great.
I love you, honey.
So I think that's something that's...
So that is.
Yeah, right.
She's definitely trained.
I'm sure she could go.
One day we'll have her on here.
She could talk about all the things she's trained me on. Yeah, bring it bring the bird

First up, MGRDO31.
Our frozen veggies, good for for you in comparison to fresh?
Did we talk about this earlier?
Uh, I don't think so.
I don't mind being mentioned.
Maybe it was mentioned.
This is a good question.
I get this actually, I've had this question asked several times.
Here's a few things you want to consider
with frozen vegetables versus fresh vegetables.
When vegetables are frozen, they're typically frozen at peak times of ripeness.
So what they'll do is they'll pick the vegetable when it's ripe and then they'll flash
freeze it.
Some of the benefits of that are it's probably at its highest nutrient content at that moment.
When fruits and vegetables are at their ripest or when they're the most peak ripeness what
they'll call it, that's usually when it has the most beneficial vitamins, minerals.
No, would you think that some of that is lost when you defrost it?
So no, no, they're finding no in terms of nutrients however,
there are compounds that are in vegetables
that were identifying now that are not there
or that are destroyed in the freezing process.
For example, in broccoli, sulfurifane is a,
it's got anti-cancer properties, lots of health properties.
It's a very interesting compound
that a lot of science now is pouring into
because of its health benefits.
What do you classify that as?
It's not a nutrient, it's not a vitamin or a mineral.
It's just some kind of a phyto-nutrient, right?
Something that, yeah, you'll find
in cruciferous vegetables in particular,
freezing the vegetables destroys that. Freezing the vegetables destroys that,
so you don't get that anymore.
So I think that there's definite benefits
to eating fresh vegetables over frozen vegetables.
However, the problem with eating fresh vegetables are...
Seasons.
Yeah, if it's out of season,
then it probably came from somewhere far away.
They probably picked it before it was ripe,
allowing it to rip in the truck and in the grocery store,
which then means it's being robbed
of certain beneficial nutrients.
Maybe they have to spray it with more pesticides
or whatever to keep it from going bad.
There's only so many farmers markets you can buy from.
You know, there's always tried to do that,
but yeah, it's just not that convenient.
I mean, we're a little bit spoiled
because we live in California. Yeah, everything's in season that convenient. I mean, we're a little bit spoiled because we're living California.
Yeah, everything's in season right now.
Right, and we just could be a question from somewhere.
You know what, this is how I kind of look at it.
It's like, I'm always like the ultimate is fresh
and organic, right?
I mean, that's the pinnacle, right?
I mean, that's what I'm shooting for all the time.
But if it comes down to having a fruit or vegetable
that I need in my diet, that isn't in season,
and I can't get to, like, you know,
the frozen is the next option that I can pretty much get.
Or like I even think of it this way too,
like somebody was, we were talking about,
like foods how you choose, like if it was,
it has to be organic or not.
Well, I'm always shooting for that.
It's just it, you know, but if there was a food
that I wouldn't, it would be something like
that has a protective skin that you're not consuming, you know.
So it's the same type of mentality for me, right?
Of course, I would rather have organic and feel good
that it's not getting sprayed with all the shit,
but if it is getting sprayed with all this shit,
hopefully it's like a banana and avocado.
Something with a skin.
Yeah, something with a skin that is like
somewhat protected of the food. So. Yeah, they do say that avocados, if you're going to eat anything not organic
avocados, one of the best things because the skin is so thick and it doesn't allow many
things to permeate through it, that you're probably going to be okay eating the flesh
of avocado that not to detour us from this topic, but that you just remind me of something
that I thought I saw in our forum that has either one of you tried the
They're actually eating the seed of the avocado. No, I've said it. I've heard about it
But I didn't even think to do that apparently there's some health benefits, but you have to grind it to fuck up
Well, you just you do you do a like a greater like a cheese like a like a like an asshake or something?
Well, yeah, I you know you can they did it real fine. What's that called, Doug?
What's the cheese grater?
Not the cheese grater, like a cheese grater though.
Real fine.
There's a nut bag.
Yeah, there's a term for that though,
that's what that's called.
I don't, can't think of the name of whatever.
I'm sure someone on our forearms.
I think you're right, man.
Let's go with nut bag.
Well, you're the shavings from the sea,
because obviously eating the fucking avocado seed
would not be like a job breaker.
You're trying to eat, wouldn't work. But taking the shavings and then cooking
you know on on or in food or in a shake, I think. I can't remember what the the article
apparently over 70% reading right now because I'm completely uneducated on this but I
totally was until this. Apparently over 70% of the total antioxidant capacities of
avocados is found within the seat.
That's great. That's a lot.
Yeah, but is it accessible?
Is it accessible?
Because that's got to be a lot of insoluble fiber, right?
Yeah. I mean, maybe that's why you got to grind it to hell up.
Right. I wonder if you have the boiler or anything else to just kind of make it.
I know, you're going to assimilate it.
The article that I saw was you're taking it and you're and you're shaving you're doing the
shavings just like you were with a lemon what's that called that when you do that with a lemon
it's disgusting yeah right now it's called zesting yeah I don't know if that's a term yeah I think
you're just great creating god damn it was I expect you to know this you're really trying to pull
from this you know it's like I need to figure this out it's not called zesting baby can you
zest that fruit over there let's's keep, let's keep talking about.
No, it's interesting.
I, apparently in South America,
they've been eating the seeds that way for a long time.
Really?
So it's got to have, probably has some good health benefits.
Yeah, I mean, do a little bit more research on to that
into that.
Yeah, sure.
And I know that was a little off-top.
I need to see, you know, what's this?
No, but I, I would say say rule a thumb if you really like,
you know, you really want to,
you're paying attention to the details of your food.
Eat fresh if it's in season and local.
Eat frozen if it's out of season,
especially if it's coming from somewhere far away.
It was probably your best bet.
Yeah, it's better to get it frozen than not get it at all, right?
Or you don't want to get it fresh if it's coming from fricking.
If you're a New York City and it's coming from Mexico you
probably better you might be better off frozen yeah Tony Stettics what do you
think about online personal training oh I see this like in general I see
online personal training being the next huge growth opportunity for fitness.
And it's fueled by social media.
I think social media has really,
because I remember, I mean, obviously,
not that long ago as a trainer,
online personal training is relatively new,
very, very new, obviously,
because it was hard to organize too.
It's nice to have that idea
of like how to train people online,
but I don't really feel like there was great resources
for that.
Not very long-weltering.
There weren't good resources.
People didn't have smartphones
where they could text each other regularly.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
I don't like to call it online personal training.
It seems I do it and it's more like coaching
than it is personal training
because I'm not there with them being able to train them, but if you coach them daily, that makes sense.
Yeah, well personal training would be the wrong term for it because you're not right.
You know, I'm big on all this stuff.
So, in 2000, in 2004, there was a huge during the dot com era, right?
So when dot com exploded, everybody was making tons of money.
There was a ton of people that made money doing this and a lot of those businesses crashed and failed.
Fast forward to now
the technology, the smart phones,
how quick stuff downloads, the clarity of video. I mean, we have evolved so much, which to me, I'm actually surprised
that somebody hasn't dominated this market.
I actually believe that we will one day.
It's just, it's not, it's on our radar.
It's just not one of our priorities right now.
The real reason why I started online coaching was just so I could see all the problems that
I saw with it and then, and to figure that business out and to go through it.
It's also why I was continually to push Sal in that direction because I wanted his mind to go through it too. So then together and Justin, I know,
has already experienced it. So we could all one day sit in a room and say, Hey, this
is what I found going through this. These are the challenges that I had. This is what I
do really well. This is what maybe one of you guys can give me some ideas and we can
brainstorm on how to evolve this. And part of what we're building with all the YouTube channels, all the programs, being
able to connect with you guys, trust me, we're going to do it and we're going to do it
very well and we're kind of in a sense indirectly building it right now.
So it's on its way, it's inevitable.
You know, it's one of those things. And there
are like some companies out there who've really made really, you know, cool products as far
as like group training is concerned and like classes, virtual classes. And there's a lot
of streaming options now as far as like, I want to, I want to do this yoga class online and then you could have
like a webcam thing set up and people can just enter in and there's there's a lot of things
like that that are popping up that are gaining more popularity and I'm sure you've seen
you know even Xfinity has a whole channel videos that you can subscribe to just for fitness.
So it's getting in this direction, but now we have
to filter through all that stuff just like everything else and see which one is a valid option for
you. And like is it specific enough to you? Well, that's what I was just going to say is the problem
with it. So the reason why we just don't have it right away right now is because we realize that
there it would be incomplete right now if we rolled it out as an option. Like if we said, you know, online personal
training with Mindbump right now, click our website, you know, X amount to do that. The
reason why we don't do it now is because we believe that it would be incomplete and there's
still pieces of everything that we're building right now. And when that day comes, when we
do offer that service, I'll feel more confident that we're providing a very individualized service.
That's the big problem with all the ones that are out there.
Right now is it's very generic and cookie cutter.
Even when I-
Because they haven't figured out how to scale it.
That's why they like, that's the problem.
The way that they scale it to get more and more clients
is to make it cookie cutter and generic.
And for me personally, I can't really work with anybody that way.
It's just not in my nature.
You know, some of the benefits human enough.
No, and I'm not providing kind of value that I want to provide.
I notice, you know, a couple of the positives that I notice about online personal training
is I'm actually in contact with my, you know, online clients way more than I ever was
with my personal training clients.
Because I'm in contact with them daily,
several times a day through text and through video.
The negative is I don't get to be,
the quality of my contact,
it was concentrated with my clients.
Like when I had personal training clients,
they come in and for an hour,
it was really designated.
It's designated, we're working out, I'm watching them while they're doing it, I'm watching them clients, they come in, and for an hour, it was really designated. It's designated, we're working out,
I'm watching them while they're doing it,
I'm watching them move, while they're moving,
I can pick up on things and see things
that are very difficult to do through, you know, virtually.
It's much, even if you send me a video,
there's a little, there's a level of self-correction,
angles and there's all kinds of stuff.
Yeah, and just, you know, I can see recruitment patterns
much, much easier as I watch you do different movements
versus just one movement, you know, I'm saying like,
if I see you do different exercises,
then I can say, oh, you know, that's a poor recruitment pattern
because now I've noticed, you know,
certain things have been happening in these four exercises
and they're all connected in this particular way,
which is, it's more difficult to do, you know,
with virtual clients, but the good news,
I can say with virtual clients is I'm in contact with them throughout the entire day, daily.
And so I get to coach them through this process
of making connections with food and with exercise.
I'd say online coaching,
you're probably gonna get more nutritional advice
than you will with exercise,
just because they're not there able to train you.
Well, let's be honest,
just from a business perspective,
like how you're mentioning that,
there needs to be a point where it becomes that.
It becomes just this hour,
and you don't keep getting that constant contact
because it's not scalable.
Well, yeah, we're putting the systems in place.
As of right now, I think for the most part,
there's more bad than good.
Because for the most part,
the majority of people that I see
that are doing online coaching,
and of course there's exceptions to rules.
I know I'm a fend-
I don't want to offend anybody,
but for the most part, a good majority of that business
is dominated and ran by IG fitness stars. By some girl that's
got a badass, badass, literally badass. And some dude, some dude that is freaking shredded
to the bone and competed or did whatever. And because they figured out how to get themselves
in an amazing shape or they're a genetic freak, they now feel and they got their one certification
or whatever. Now they feel credible enough to be teaching thousands of people all over the world.
I have yet to see an online coach's nutrition advice or workout advice that's sound.
I've seen a lot now and I look at it and I go, wow, I cannot believe that that's the
advice that that person.
I had a, I saw a girl whose coach told her to eat 300
grams of protein a day and she was complaining to him about gastroissues, you know, I'm feeling
tired, fatigued, I'm not feeling good, I'm nauseous with all his protein and he's just
hammering her on her discipline.
Like you don't want this hard enough, you need to keep doing this.
And I'm like, holy cow, like this is not only the bad advice, it's dangerous advice.
I'm seeing too much of this.
Well, and that's horrible.
Dude, shreds has a certification.
Enough said.
This is really so fucking stupid.
I didn't know that.
Yes.
I didn't know that either.
They have an online certification.
Yes, they have an online certification.
No, it is, right?
Let's teach you how to sell our supplement.
That's exactly what we have.
Oh, yeah, remember when we called them,
remember when we were texting them when we were on the show.
So this is why I almost want to do it.
I was really pushing south,
to get in it because, you know,
the same thing like when I got into competing was,
I can't help but shut,
I mean, can't help my business mind from turning
when I get involved in things like this.
And when I got into the coaching,
and I started getting clients that were hiring me
after they had some other
coach who fucked up their metabolism or told them to do this or told them to do that.
I was just like, wow. And when I started figuring out that these were some of the top people
that were doing it. And by top, I mean like the busiest, making the most money, you know,
coaching these people online, I went holy shit, there's a huge disconnect here
and a huge opportunity.
And a huge opportunity for someone to come in and do it right.
And the only reason why we haven't really pushed a release
is because I think right now, where we stand,
I believe that we can provide a fucking awesome,
much better service than out there,
but it's not finished yet.
Like, we're not done building everything
and we're still building everything out
that when we do decide to, it will be extremely superior
to anything that's out there right now,
but we gotta get there.
And it takes time, it takes money, it took for sure
all of us going through it, coaching clients,
but you know, buyer beware.
If you're somebody of the question
while you're asking this question
because you're considering getting coaching for someone,
I mean, that's also why we provide so much free information.
Like, save your money, go back and listen to more episodes.
Like, go listen to more episodes of Mind Plum,
go subscribe to the Mind Plum Show.
These are all free things that we provide you guys.
Like, go through, read the blogs on our webpage. Like, take it, go read the posts that we do on our Instagram.
Like we try and provide as so much, I believe that we provide it more free information
that should put most of the online coaching I had a business in itself. And then those
that want even more and the next level of coaching is coming. I promise.
Actor slash model.
How do you get plenty of vegetables when you're keto
since on keto you need to eat so low carb?
So it's okay, so.
I picked this for the reason why you're gonna,
I already know where you're mounted to go.
Yeah, yeah, first off, like you don't like stop
with the whole like I gotta be in a particular camp,
type of thing.
Can you eat lots of vegetables and remain in ketosis?
You can, there's lots of, you know,
fibrous kind of low carb.
But who cares?
Exactly, who cares?
I mean, if I eat ketogenic, in particular,
if I'm trying to eat ketogenic,
it's for the medicinal benefit of the foods.
It's for the health, the particular health benefits
of eating ketogenic, which for
me tend to be, you know, anti-inflammatory reduced, you know, helped me with consistent
energy, helped me with some of my gut issues.
That being said, I go off of keto relatively frequently.
There's days I have just vegetables because of their health benefits and the way they make
me feel so I don't like
I don't like this question because I feel like
When people stay in a particular camp then they eliminate all these healthy foods that they get all of a sudden
They can't eat them anymore because it doesn't fit within there which is a new plan to think this I mean and
So my favorite part about when I when I ran key to the ketogenic diet is this
I'm doing air quotes when I say ketogenic diet too,
because it was, for me, it was the connection
it helped me make with the foods that I was eating
in the previously and the way I was eating now.
It helped me with my relationship with food.
I didn't need to follow a ketogenic diet going forward.
It would just help me realize, holy shit,
I had a major addiction to carbohydrates
that not only, that I thought in my head were okay
because I could get on stage and present this bad ass physique
that is at the elite level.
So I said, it's okay that I'm eating four to 600 grams
of carbs every single day.
But what I didn't realize, some of those things were also causing issues, like with
my psoriasis and stuff like that. So when I realized that, wow, I was lacking a lot of these
healthy fats in my diet and I was over consuming on the carbohydrates. And because I had to do
the other extreme. So I just went from one extreme to the other extreme by going keto genic. So I think the unhealthy thing would be to connect that the other extreme is what
I need. It wasn't that I needed the other extreme. That other extreme helped me realize
what was missing in my diet and the taught me better balance and better foods that I
needed to incorporate. So now my diet is I wouldn't classify it as anything. It's not ketogenic, it's not IFIM, it's not adkins,
it's not low carb, high carb.
No, what it is is I realize what foods are better for me
and I should get more, I'm not really worried if I have six cups
of veggies in one sitting or I have like the doctor
run a Patrick shake right now that's gonna kick me out
of ketosis because fuck, it might kick me out of ketosis,
but I'm just gonna flood my body
with all kinds of nutrient-dense foods
that I'm lacking and I need.
Yeah, I think you have to be very, very careful.
Like, one of the big drawbacks that I see
when people follow a particular nutrition plan
is they eliminate, because they have to be so regimen, right?
They eliminate a whole category of potential healthy.
Remember this is what I said to you afterwards, right?
This is exactly what I said.
I didn't like about the diet was that I found myself
eating the same food.
Eating yes, avocado, coconut oil, macadamia nuts,
bacon, cheese, that, and beefamia nuts, bacon, cheese,
that, and beef, that was just my diet all the time
and I was eliminating all these other things
that are, yeah, and butter, right?
And all these other foods that were extremely important
to my body.
Yeah, it's funny because when you look at some
of the health benefits of different ways of eating,
like if you look at the health benefits of vegan
or the health benefits of keto or the health benefits
of Mediterranean diet,
you gotta consider this,
there's health benefits to these diets
because of what they don't eat,
but there's a lot of health benefits to these diets
because of what they do eat.
Excellent point.
And so you can take many of those things into account.
Like eating a vegan diet,
a well planned vegan diet, which is not keto, right?
Vegan is not keto at all.
But eating a well-planned vegan diet has been shown to be quite anti-inflammatory for lots
of people.
Now is it because they're not eating organic meats and fish and stuff like that?
No.
It's probably because they're eating a lot of vegetables.
And keto's got some benefits as well.
Some of it comes from the avoidance of processed carbohydrates, but a lot of it comes
from the fact that a lot of people don't get adequate,
fat intake from healthy, natural fats
that have some good health benefits.
So you wanna consider all these things
when you're looking at your nutrition.
And when I have clients that eat an a keto style diet
and I'm constantly pushing them to eat more vegetables.
I don't care if it pushes them out of ketosis. I'm constantly telling them to eat more colors and throw more vegetables
in the diet because they're low calorie, they're nutrient dense, they might have some, you
know, fibers carbohydrates in them but the benefits are just, there's so many benefits to
all these different colors of vegetables that it would be, it wouldn't be smart to not have them
because you're trying to stay in ketosis.
Yeah.
HR Hayes 9.
Adam, now that you're an expert in priming and mobility,
do you think you'd bring a better physique
if you were to compete once again?
Of course.
Oh, well, let's back up first before we,
I don't know if I want to call myself an expert on that.
Yeah, just, just, just definitely a lot better.
Let's get back to that.
Yeah, with those things.
I better experienced a lot more first
than what I was a couple of years ago.
Do I think I would, yeah, absolutely.
There's no doubt in my mind, for sure,
I think of which is more important
than what I bring a better physique is, I think I wouldn't, for sure, I think, which is more important than what I bring
a better physique is I wouldn't limit myself
and I would have less issues that I had to overcome.
So because of my bodybuilder mentality
and training that way a lot and so focused on aesthetics
and the mean collecting mobility.
I was, I became very robotic.
My movements were, and I never really noticed that because I never had spent that long of
a period of time training so focused on one goal.
You know, competing whether, whether you like it or not is a sport, right?
Just like basketball or football or baseball, it's just a different type of one. And we've talked about this a lot that all sports are not healthy for the
body. And that's hard for people to understand that because when you look at an athlete,
when you look at me standing on stage, when you look at your favorite basketball player,
soccer player, football player, some of them have the physiques that we desire. But the thing
that we have to connect is that when you're doing something, when
the sport is the main goal, and that is what's your priority, you start to put other things
on the back burner or other things become less of a priority like your movement and your
overall health and aches and pains.
I would band-aid all those aches and pains and I would keep going through those because
it wasn't a priority.
It was more how I looked. So looking back now, like if I were to get back on stage and compete
again, something that would I would make sure to do because I learned the hard way is I would make
sure to incorporate more of my mobility. So it would be kind of a blend of like our maps black
with our maps green. Like maps black is really an example of how I train for like two years straight and for
you know, maximal, you know, aesthetics that would be ideal.
But the problem with that is it totally neglected my mobility.
And now what I do is I train very much so a blend of black and green together.
And if I were to get back on stage,
I mean, you gotta think I'm getting more range of motion,
so more recruitment is happening, so more muscle fiber.
So you would only, I mean, it's obvious
that it would improve.
Yeah, I mean, you have to ask yourself,
like if you could move better with better control
and larger ranges of motion,
do you think the current exercises that you're doing now
would serve you better?
Of course, yeah.
Of course, it definitely wouldn't make things worse.
You know, now that I can go deeper in my squat
with good control or now that I can deadlift
with better connectivity,
now that I can overhead press with better extension,
you know, now that I can chest press with greater depth
or dip, you know know dip with greater depth like
how I mean how how could that not make your body look better you're you're just recruiting more muscle fibers you're getting better movement you know things are are are better connected so
you're going to get a better central nervous system response. I'll take it even one step further something that I got from Brink and a part of what inspired maps prime
was
So if anybody who's followed my journey since the beginning may have picked up on this
I know I've had people a long time ago ask me on my Instagram
But if you go deep in my Instagram where you've been around me for a long time, you'll notice that all my stage photos,
most photos I ever showed of my physique in the mirror when I was going through my transformation,
whatever, is from the same side, from my left side. Well, there's a reason for that.
Part of that reason is my physique on the right side where my tattoo is at, looks terrible,
aside from the fact that I have psoriasis on that side, which makes it worse, but I also have.
So I've known as the back hair.
Yeah.
I also have.
That nipple looks funny.
Yeah.
I have a...
Nice shape of form.
I have a poor scapular retraction on the right side.
I have poor connectivity.
And by poor, it's like, we're talking like splitting hairs
for the average person.
The average person would never be able to tell this
or even know.
I knew because when I quarter turn to that side, it looked terrible.
So in my opposing routines, I would turn, turn, and then turn back the other direction
when I turned transition my last time.
So I never showed that side because we don't have to.
You just have to give the judges a side shot, a front shot, and a rear shot.
And so I would skip that transition.
Lots of guys do this because they everybody-
Money shot.
A lot of guys will talk about how they have,
you know, better sides aesthetically for the camera.
Well, most guys don't dive into why that is.
Like, and so we dove into that after competing was over
and I did that with brink.
And it was because I wasn't able to get my shoulder
to retract all the way back,
which did not present my physique on that side really well.
Once I got better connected,
and I have to go through this priming
before I go into my opposing routine
or even training for that matter to get that.
What you didn't even think of that.
Oh, it was a game changer.
And I'll never forget that day.
That was men, you wanna talk about what sold me on brink?
Was this, was, you know, you talk about a guy like me
who, you know, and I know this is hard for Justin
to listen to because this is the obsessive side
that I have to do and this is to him, just goes,
phew, but I literally would analyze.
You're talking?
Yeah.
Analyze every little bit because I'm getting judged
on stage and so what I would constantly be looking at this side and you know,
talk about a guy who's very in tune with his body, not being able to figure out
why the fuck do I look bad on this side and I can't get this other side to look the same way.
And I mean, I spent countless hours, but the problem was I was thinking that it was something
that I'm doing mechanically wrong that I could fix just by looking at it and adjusting it.
Problem was I was neurologically disconnected and it wasn't allowing me to get into that
position to hold my posture.
The first time that I saw a break, I shared this with him.
And then he assessed himself.
He got me, he put me in a couple positions, some stuff that we utilize inside of Maps Prime.
I stood back up.
I had my shirt off.
I did that. I went, I, I had my shirt off, I did that,
I went, I'd never seen my physique look like that.
Didn't do any, we didn't build any muscle,
we didn't lose any body fat, didn't do anything,
just connected me better.
I didn't even think the application of Prime,
wow, you can, if you're a competitor in our stage,
I can see that.
If you are a competitor,
if you are a competitor and you do not own maps prime right now
you are fucking missing out. I will tell you that right now because a huge piece to competing is
being able to present your physique. A huge piece of that is being fully connected to all of it
and I know every competitor that's listening right now whether you're at the amateur or the
professional level can definitely relate to one of their pose, one of their sides, whether it be left side,
right side, front or back, they do not present
their physique as connection.
They're not as connected.
And there can be some, there's not no connection.
There's still a connection there.
There's examples of probioty builders
that could have done so much better,
like Paul Dillett from the 90s was infamous, you know, Nassar L. Sandbody,
infamous for having poor back poses
because they weren't able to,
the back is typically an area where people fuck up,
it's hard to pose it.
If you don't know how to really spread your scapula
or retract or depress or whatever.
And, you know, judges would say, man,
you look so great until you turn around and try to flex
and then you just didn't hit the pose right.
And this is why I love too that we reference
like the golden era of bodybuilding
and the Arnold Schwarzenegger,
because these guys, we have the science now.
We understand that this is a neurological issue.
Like Arnold Schwarzenegger probably didn't understand it
to that level, but they did some things like when they would do ballet, you know, and ballet is I mean anyone
It's ever even attempted that knows the muscle the muscle mind muscle connection and the control and body awareness
And proprioception that that takes the extreme form of it is exactly is the extreme form it and if you learn to master that
stream form of it. Is it exactly, is the extreme form it?
And if you learn to master that,
your opposing routine would be great.
So now you get all these guys that are doing ballet,
but now we understand that you don't have to go do ballet,
you just need to learn where you're disconnected.
Well, that's what prime is all about.
Prime is to take you through this assessment
that assesses your upper, your lower,
turn those tights back in.
Right.
Well, even for those of you that don't,
I mean, even for people that don't compete
on stage, just having mobility and better connectivity through priming, you're just
going to perform better.
Your body's going to operate better, it's going to be stronger, you know, if you use priming
properly and the thing about proper priming is it's quite individual.
That's the thing.
It's not a generic, just like a workout, right?
Workouts have a general structure, but as you understand your body, you start to
individualize it to your body. Primings even more individualized because with
priming, you're trying to set up the central nervous system before your workout.
But if you do it right, you'll find that you'll perform better because it's
going to work on your weaknesses and your strengths. And when you go to do your
exercise, boom, for you,
now it works that much better.
Of course, you're gonna build more muscle.
Of course, your body is gonna respond much better
when you do those things.
So, not to know brainer for sure.
