That's what you called it. We talk about our LA day trip.
We actually flew in at like 9 AM,
flew to South.
Don't do that again.
At 9 PM, Adam was irritable.
Then we talk about trends.
And not quite sure what trends we talked about.
We had to go pee before recording this intro.
We talk about Adam's top five business people that he would pick.
If he could work with them.
He's got some interesting answers on there.
I guess I pissed a lot off a lot of people when I did that.
They didn't like that.
We talk about gimmicky diets and one that I invented that I think would be a billion dollar
out there.
Unfortunately, it's super brilliant and I hate to give you credit for that.
Yeah, but I won't do it because I have integrity.
Too much integrity unlike Dr. Integrity.
Then we talk about the history of muscle building supplements.
This whole episode, great conversation,
we had a lot of fun recording it.
You're gonna love it.
You forgot too that we mentioned organifying this episode.
Oh, we did, didn't we?
We mentioned organifying this episode.
We have mentioned our sponsor,
and you don't even mention them.
Son of a bitch. You could get a discount on
Organify Supplements. If you go to
Organifyshop.com, enter the code,
mine pump. I was getting sick at the
beginning of the week, got better, and
then we did this thing yesterday and now
I feel bad again. Of course. Yeah, I mean,
you got worked on hard. You got drilled in
your job. Oh, my jaw.
My jaw, it literally hurts too.
What a great trip.
I got what happened his way.
What a great trip we have.
It was productive.
I liked those trips.
I did too, but boy was I exhausted.
You know what, though?
I get to a point, I lost my voice a little bit.
So I get to a point where I get tired
and then when I push past tired,
and I can't sleep, that's what happened to me last night.
Oh, no, I was laying in bed.
You know what, it's so funny, some laying in bed.
And Katrina has a lot to do with organizing
all this stuff as far as our schedules and things like that.
So she always likes to hear how it went,
like how to go.
And she works real hard to make a lot of these connections, relationships and the timing and all that work out. And your answers were real short.
Yeah, so it's what we do. We roll it. We roll it at 11.30 a night, right? And, you know, I,
I, I, we left early this morning. Yeah. And we're non-stop to the point where we did not eat.
It felt like two days. Yeah, we did a neat.
Remember, we got food for a second and they're like,
oh shit, we're late.
Yeah, to fly there and back and do,
I mean, first of all, I've told Katrina before
the max people we can do in a day is three
because just talking to three different groups of people,
you have to be on for,
it's, and that each one is a minimum of two to three hours.
So you figure, you're
looking at six to you know somewhere in that six to eight hours of communicating with
three different types of people potentially or groups is already like taxing as fuck right.
So I've always told her like don't push us beyond three in a day. And you always and you
typically have to travel to three different.
Well, and that is and especially when we live for each person.
That was what was unique about this trip was normally we are somewhere already,
like we're in Austin for four or five days, we're in LA for four or five days,
we're in somewhere for four or five days.
This one was a day trip and so to plan three people in a day was that was a fucking,
that was a day, man.
It was cool though, man.
Came home and she was like,
Yeah, kuda is the Katrina. How was it, right? She wants to know how it went and I was like, day, man. It was cool though, man. It came home and she was like, Yeah, Kudas, the Katrina.
How was it, right?
She wants to know how it went and I was like,
Good, good.
And she's like, and then she's like,
Do you not want to talk about,
I mean, we can.
I said, I just, you know,
if we get going into it, I was like,
you know how I get it.
And she's like, I just want to make sure,
you know, was the trip worthwhile, business wise.
Was it business smart? And I said, no, no, you know, was it the trip worthwhile? Business-wise? Was it business smart?
And I said, no, no, absolutely.
It was.
She goes, well, you sound like you're not as excited.
And I'm like, well, no, it was good.
It was a good trip.
She's like, well, was it was a waste of time, wasn't it?
And she keeps doing this to me.
And I'm like, do you want to get into this or what?
And she's like, well, I mean, I just feel like,
and you can tell she was getting like, kind of,
upset about it,
because she works hard to make that happen, right?
And then I hear I'm not valuing what she does.
And so I get that, I'm putting this together, right?
So I'm like, okay, so I light the joint.
I'm like, I'm gonna have to smoke weed for this one,
because we're gonna, okay.
So we're gonna get in.
So I go, you know, I-
So babe, when I talk to you, I get it.. I go, it's at the worst, I said,
it's from a business standpoint,
I said at the worst, it's a wash
with the potential of being really, really big, really good.
And I said, but we've done this enough times now,
you know, that I'm just not overly excited about.
Because well, I just feel like, you know,
like when you got back recently from Austin
and wherever else we just came back from,
she's like, you just seem way more excited than this time.
And I'm like, no, I think I'm just getting used to this now.
It's like, you know, the first couple of times we did this.
You also came back exhausted as fuck.
And I explain that to her.
I'm like, I'm exhausted.
I said, you get to remember,
like this was probably one of the more exhausting days
we've had to do.
So, you know, I'm tired, I'm exhausted, I just want to crash.
And I said, plus, nothing has developed from this yet.
So for all I know, we could all go our separate ways.
Nothing happens with univision, nothing happens with...
Viny.
Yeah, maybe nothing we do with the human garage, maybe nothing goes beyond what we just did yesterday.
And for those reasons, it's at least a wash because it was good relations.
It would, it obviously gets us out there still.
Good content.
Yeah, good, good, exactly.
Good content.
All right.
And I said to her, I said, you know, human garage guys, brilliant minds.
I said, that's great, always great for us boys to, you know, we definitely learn stuff.
Right.
Be communicating with other, you know, very intelligent fitness, wellness-minded people.
I said, so from a standpoint like that,
and if we're looking at like a numbers that way,
I'm like, okay, it's a wash right now,
but it could be huge.
And I said, I just don't get excited
about that stuff until it happens.
It's like, so yeah, no.
You're so agitated.
Right, so.
He's cool.
Yeah.
No, she was, but it ended up turning into an hour and a half conversation.
So I was up till fucking 1230 last week.
What a great, what a great trip though.
I mean, it was, it's entirely worth.
It was super fun.
Univision awesome.
That was great.
How about that studio?
Great.
Aording studio.
We all had envy on that.
But it was cool meeting like, you know, we've done lots of podcasts, we've been on other shows,
we've met lots of people, but it's always a treat
to meet a genuine fan, you know, and Liz was,
she's a genuine fan, she's listened to every episode.
Every single episode, so when we're talking to her,
like, she's asking questions and talking to us
and she knows the whole journey that we've been through.
Pacific things from, yeah, from episode, which is really, I really, really, really appreciate that when you find someone who does that because you know, you, we do what we do and we put a lot of our, our heart and soul into it.
And when you see someone that it resonates with in a positive Well, it just feels really nice. It's interesting to see what she's trying to do too,
because when we first got set up,
like, I look, what are we gonna do at Univision?
Like, I can't speak Spanish.
Like, this is not gonna go well.
Right?
But when I realize what she's trying to do
and the battle that she's fighting right now
is that she sees what Mind Pump is done, the message that we're
giving, she says that she feels like univision and just most of the Spanish networks are behind
in this message, like just no one's giving this message.
She feels like they're 5-10 years behind us and so she wants to kind of be that.
In general, it's just that community.
The Latino community in general is not.
Yeah, you brought up to her, like with the sodas
and obesity and diabetes.
Yeah, like if you look at like our closest,
one of, you know, closest neighbor, Mexico,
if you look at the obesity epidemic there,
you will see one of the fastest growth of obesity
and just starkest contrast within a generation or two
that you can see anywhere else.
Part of it was the introduction of highly processed foods,
of course, accessibility to foods,
but then the processed foods to the point where soda,
which was never consumed,
like a couple generations ago,
they didn't have soda.
Now it's a staple with almost every meal.
They consume soda either.
This is like extra amounts of sugar in that soda.
It is and diabetes has exploded there.
And so they're just starting to learn about,
like nutrition and health because it was not really
a concern before, the concerns before were very different.
And you're just seeing this just just rapid trend and change.
And so she's really trying with her podcast to make, to convey the proper good nutrition advice, good fitness advice.
It's really cool.
Yeah, it's very cool.
I normally don't like to go somewhere where the host doesn't have headphones for us to listen for feedback.
That got me out. I was weirded out by that one. where the host doesn't have headphones for us to listen for feedback.
That got me, I was weirded out by that.
Yeah, but I was surprised.
Normally, I don't like that at all,
but it wasn't bad with that.
That played the way they have that thing set up.
It's so conversational, the way it's set up,
it felt so easy to just kind of talk.
I'll give her props.
I think she's been listening because of our style
and what we kind of try to coach.
A podcast like, just start recording and let's just like flow.
It was she was recording everything before we even realized it.
And I was like, aw, that was awesome.
That was awesome.
We're a bunch of assholes.
And then we like trying to coach people.
Yeah, we did.
I know I'm notorious for that one.
Well, I mean, but you know what,
but we like to be coach too.
That's right.
That's what we learned.
So I feel like to it's better.
I'm glad you said that because I feel like
I come from a good place when I do that.
I know I have a habit of doing that.
It's not like I know more than you.
It's that I appreciate someone sharing knowledge
or information that's impacted that.
Yeah, right?
Torbillion is always dropping bombs.
Tom Billiou, Mike Matthews, when we met with him.
I'm receptive to that.
Yeah, these are all people that have,
we sat down and they just taught us things.
So I feel the same way too.
When we get into situations like that,
it's not me trying to be in control
or tell someone to do, it's just like, fuck, do this
was a game changer for us.
This has helped me out when you do this,
if you do this, it makes a big difference
with your audience and it helps out.
And so I think, for the most part,
I feel like most people receive it.
But I know sometimes I have to be aware of myself. I know I can come off like I'm telling you. Like you're the most part I feel like most people receive it, but I know sometimes I have to be aware of myself.
I know I can come off like I'm telling you.
You're gonna leave it.
And I know that can be annoying because I know like I don't like, I say this all the time to people that one of my biggest pet peeves
is someone who's trying to tell you how to run a race that you're already beating them at.
You know, it's like so, oh my god.
It's so annoying, right?
When you get that way too often though, I guess that's where the frustration comes in.
Oh my God, dude.
Hey, but you know what though?
I'm sometimes you learn something
even from people like that.
Of course.
It's true, you know?
You can't ever be, you can't be close to mine.
You always have to be open-minded.
You just want them to have the same attitude.
That's cool.
I just get quiet with people like that.
When I was like, oh okay, yeah.
I'm not normally a quiet guy.
And if you,
but you always be your red flag though,
it's going on in my head. Oh, you know what her reminds me of?
Because you got five downloads.
It's almost like the story that Vinnie was telling us
when we were meeting with him.
I remember how he said he was in the gym.
Oh yeah, yeah.
And there was that like kind of buff chick.
And she comes over, she's spotting him
and he just had shoulder surgery.
And he's so he's barely lifting the bar.
And she's like coaching him on how he should work out
and what he needs to do with his diet, the somat.
He's just like, okay, that's cool, whatever. And she has no idea, she's like coaching him on how he should work out and what he needs to do with his diet, the cement. He's just like, okay, that's cool, whatever.
And she has no idea, she's talking to like,
like these celebrities.
That takes a lot of humility to be able to do that.
Not a lot of people.
Yeah, a lot of humility, a lot of confidence
to be able to let people kind of come in and say shit.
Dude, that happens to me all the time.
You know, like at Orange Theory that girl,
coaching me on how to do a proper press with the TRX
and then you people at the gym to bed pack is like,
you know, coming at like my form for like hypertrophy training.
I'm like, yeah, of course.
You know, like, brain, I'm like, coach me.
You know, that's all good, whatever.
But it's like, I know anyways,
but you just have to kind of receive it, you know, you got to like realize it. Absolutely. I'm humble and I, you know, I'm all good, whatever, but it's like, I know, anyways, but you just have to kind of receive it,
you know, you gotta like realize it.
Absolutely.
I'm humble and I, you know, I'm here to learn too,
but I know a lot.
You haven't, that hasn't happened to you though.
That hasn't happened to you lately, hasn't it?
No one's done that lately, right?
Nobody stops you at the gym.
No, no.
Like sometimes, it's just weird hot randomly.
I would be hilarious, right?
It's gonna walk over, correct your form.
Out of the epigene.
I would be hell like you.
You should try a grip like this.
Yeah.
You know, one time there was a member doing,
just I don't remember what it was.
It was some exercise in the form.
It was all fucked up when I was a trainer.
And I walked over to him and I'm like,
hey, you might want to try it this way
and I show him a different way of doing it.
And he even had broken English and he goes,
you don't look like Arnold.
And he turns around and does it his old way.
I'm like, you motherfucker.
You got to suck her.
Well, you know what, I used to get to it.
You don't look like Arnold.
And I was competing.
I was competing with all these, I mean, I was working out a lot and around a lot of these
other competitors, you know.
So they all look fucking great and awesome.
And we'd work out.
They would just, oh, you know, let's do this.
I want to do this for that. and I'm like, oh God,
for this thing, he's telling me for my reason
and stuff, I'm like, no, I'm gonna do this.
And then they all wonder like, why didn't wanna work out?
Like everyone's just like, hey, what day are you,
we're gonna have to do this, I'm like,
nah, it's cool, I'm doing my own thing, you know?
And I just don't like having to explain myself
every time I'm like, what this is what I'm doing, okay?
It's like, if you wanna join me, you can join me,
but you're not gonna convince me
why you wanna go do this exercise for the fucking reasons you wanna to join me, you can join me, but you're not going to convince me why you want to go do this exercise
for the fucking reasons you want to go doing more
because I'm working it into this.
Dude, speaking of working out,
you know what I'm starting to see,
which is a good thing,
and I try not to get irritated with it,
it's because it's actually a good thing.
Are you guys seeing what I'm seeing on Instagram
and social media right now with a lot of these fitness gurus
who are now starting to
promote
Exercise frequency or workout frequency where they're like full-body workouts. It's spontaneously all of a sudden
You mean a doctor obvious. No. Yeah, there's doctor obvious and
There's two doctor obvious is and doctor integrity is the other one. Who now are promoting like full body workouts
and this may be more better.
I like Dr. I like you.
I like you given Jim Dr. Integrity.
I didn't think you had that.
That's great.
So we got Jim, we got Jim,
Jim will call Jim Dr. Integrity.
Dr. Integrity and then we'll call Muscle PhD.
We'll call him Dr.
Dr. Obvious.
Dr. Obvious.
Dr. Obvious and Dr. Integrity. He's been posting it. Dr. Obvious, Dr. Obvious. Dr. Obvious, Dr. Ob. obvious Dr. obvious Dr. obvious and Dr. integrity. He's been
posting
Dr. we should can you have a
dude? Dr.
designer creates some
fucking characters great
please. Yes, please tell me
those are great characters. A
lab coat. Dr. obvious. Where's a
lab coat and Dr. and Dr.
integrity glasses and
yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, yes,
please. Yes, because like now
it's like all of a sudden I'm
reading like all in fun.
Fun. All you fucking people that are fucking good. You're sure. I know. And whatever army and tie it up. Yes, yes, please. Yeah, cause like now it's like all of a sudden I'm reading like, all in fun,
all you fucking people that are fucking
good you sir,
and whatever army hashtag.
Yeah, I mean,
listen, here's the thing,
when we were first started mind pump
and we were promoting full body workouts and frequency,
we had a lot of resistance from this world.
We did, we got into debates and discussions.
Right.
No, it's better to do it the body parts split way
and with a few ways better than why are all the body builders training this way and this and that and the other. And we were, it's better to do it the body parts split way. And well, if your way is better than why
are all the bodybuilders training this way?
And this and that and the other.
And we were arguing with a lot of these people,
but they're starting to come around.
Part of it is because the science is really starting
to catch up.
I don't know how many studies now that they've done
that have demonstrated that if you do,
if you compare two workouts with the same total volume,
but this one over here has more frequency.
In other words, they split up to volume.
It's just superior.
There's several studies now that are showing this.
That's part of the reason.
The other part of the reason is, I think because of the internet, because we're not the only
one that obviously have, we didn't invent training this way.
It was the way people trained before steroids.
But I think with the internet, in the way information spreads,
people are sharing more of their anecdote
and more and more people are trying to work out this way.
To the point now where I'm seeing,
well, you've seen it in like magazines and everything too.
You've got teenations, you're,
you're even men's health, like is talking about these.
We know they're my publicity.
A band in the body's part split and all this kind of stuff.
I'm like, oh really? I know. Really?
I'm gonna start, I'm gonna call T-Nation out on the show.
Why?
I'm just gonna say it.
But we like them.
No, we love them.
Yeah, great.
Reveal yourself, bro.
Where you get your sources?
Say what you have, dude. Let's go grab lunch.
Yeah.
There's a big curtain.
Yeah, pull it back.
Reveal yourself.
They're mind-pump.
It's like a hologram.
Yeah, mind-pump. Let, it's like a hologram.
Yeah, mind-pump.
Let's kick it, dude.
Like, I like a lot of shit, you say shit.
You say shit.
Most of the stuff that they put.
Steam up, you know what I mean?
Most of the stuff they put out is awesome.
One of the few sources is like.
A lot of it is, yeah.
Most of it.
If we do it right instead of you guys
dropping stuff right after we talk about it,
we can just collaborate and we can top it together.
That was such a joke.
But anyway, I'm glad I see it so fun. I just call it how I see it.
It's so fun.
I'm glad though that this information is now starting to get out
because it's better.
People are getting a better shape.
Well that's the point of why we're doing this.
Here's what I'm waiting for.
Here's what I'm waiting for.
I'm going to do the clap. You know people that are knowing when they talk. Here's what I'm waiting for. Here's what I'm waiting for. I'm gonna do the clap. You know, people that I'm knowing when they talk.
Here's what I'm waiting for.
Who are you new to?
Here's to you when they people argue?
That was on like maybe, what movie was that
with Eddie Murphy, where you put all the different characters?
You know, and someone's arguing
and they're trying to make you leave.
No, not that, but what were they?
Let me tell you.
Let me tell you something.
Anyway, here's what I can't wait for.
I cannot wait for variations of trigger sessions
to start getting fucking put out there
and for people not to call them trigger sessions.
I can't wait, it's already happening a little bit.
I'm seeing people talk about and reference different things.
Maximizers.
Yeah, whatever.
But it's a trigger session.
Molecules session.
First.
You know what?
Or first dish.
I think we need to make sure.
Maybe someone else did it first.
I don't know about it though. Charging session. I don't know. or first dish. I think we need to make sure someone else did it first I don't know about it though charging session
Do you so not like that? You know rich piana talked about feeder sessions someone told me about a long time ago
So I don't know if that's similar, but definitely the way we talk about trigger sessions the way we present it
I don't know we do it. I doubt rich piana had the same science to support his purpose. Yeah, I don't know maybe
I don't know if you but anyway, I can't wait because I guarantee you
that's gonna be a thing everybody can start doing soon as well.
The electrify session.
Yeah, that's molecule.
I think that, and then I'm waiting,
I'm calling and waiting for the revolt on the IIFYM,
Pindalum to swing back.
Because I still think it's on the rise.
More and more people are finding it.
It's working. Yeah. Oh, yeah. Absolutely. Definitely.
You think it's going to swing so hard? Oh, yeah.
It was interesting to me. The video was talking about with CrossFitters and how much they're
seeking out donuts and all these high sugar type foods and stuff. They're so depleted.
It makes so much sense to me, like,
why that's part of the culture, you know, it's in grain.
It's like deadlifts, donuts, all this kind of stuff.
Yeah, there's literally 8 million IIFYM tags
and the very first picture that opens up
when I, the very top, top to post
is a cookie butter Oreo cookies. So I, it will.
It's gonna swing.
And I know like the ones that like to support it are like,
well, that's not what it stands for.
And you know, you got to count the fibers still
and you get net carbs and you know, they, and they,
what do you mean, you mean eating healthy?
Yeah.
Right.
So I know there's, there's camps that like to,
at the end of the day. It's it's
Here's the trend that I'll predict right now that I've said before mums again so that people fucking solidify that we said it
You are going to see a trend that is because we've already seen the demonization of carbohydrates fats
Just wait the protein one is coming 100% Oh, it's a good call. I took a call guarantee. It's like, oh no, eating too much protein, which you'd have
eat a shit ton of it, definitely not the greatest, but you're going to see protein fasting
become a thing.
The problem, the argument that I had with that, and I had this with you when you first
brought that up almost fucking two years ago or whatever, is we're still, it's barely
hitting mainstream now that you're seeing, you're seeing Nestle, Nestle,
adding it to their things.
So that's how I know the backlash is coming.
When I see, large, high protein coke or whatever,
then I know the backlash is coming.
It's like when your parents know your favorite bands,
like you're not cool.
I think the opposite, I think that's an analogy.
When I see companies doing it like that,
it tells me that it's going on a run for a while.
If it was a stock, I would be telling people to buy right now.
Here's why I think-
Buy the protein stock.
Yeah, well, it's already high though.
That's what I'm saying.
Oh, it's high, but it's gonna get higher.
It may be, remember, you wanna buy low and sell high.
So, it's already high.
Well, you would have bought, okay, in a perfect world,
when you and I argued about it two years ago,
you would have bought what I said. Then maybe, maybe it's gone up. Yeah, maybe oh hundred percent it has
But I definitely think the fall is gonna be it's gonna be interesting because I can already see it with because the popularity of
Fasting and the popularity of ketogenic diets the reason being is both of which
Site science that show health benefits
Yeah, and some of the health benefit that comes from those,
people need to know, is the avoidance of protein.
Because you get autophagy or accelerated rates
of autophagy, which is programmed cell death,
or getting rid of waste or whatever in the body,
that is accelerated because you're avoiding
both carbohydrates and fats.
Because when you, I'm excuse me, carbohydrates and proteins,
not fats.
So, both of those citing that science,
so that's one of the things that's gonna fuel the whole,
oh, you know, you need to avoid proteins sometimes
and protein fasting is a good thing
and you don't have to have high protein everything.
We think about like intermittent keto diet.
Like, you're sickle, right?
I feel like that's what it's gonna evolve to. Oh, you think so? Yeah. I came up with keto diet. Well, sickle, right? I feel like that's what it's gonna evolve to.
Maybe you think so?
Yeah.
I came up with the diet.
Because it's like, I mean, it's such a hard diet
to maintain for a long time.
Well, we're watching, you know, I mean,
there's the, and we call that too,
is the keto crave.
I mean, watch what I think it's,
it's already losing momentum.
We saw that, but we remember when we said
about supplements with it, look at all the,
I mean, that's...
Everybody's putting ketone.
Oh, yeah.
Keto supplements are crazy.
Well, I bet you, I would love actually to look at that.
We should look that up.
I'd like to see where, how much...
Keto is gonna run.
It's been on the rise.
She lasts six months to a year.
So I came up with a diet idea the other day, just for shits and giggles, that I...
100%.
You did wait a second.
Wait, wait, wait, wait.
Before you share this, you did or is this one of those things
where I'd share this and then you turn around.
I do, okay, let's do it.
I do, for sure.
Remember what I said, let's hear it.
So right now, well tell me what you said.
No, no, no, let's just talk.
It's a reverse.
It's a reverse.
Justin knows, bro.
He'll know who's the walrus.
No, no, no, no, no, it's a reverse.
Something that I would never put out.
Okay.
Because it's not, it would be like a hook, you know what I mean?
But if I had less integrity, let's say I was doctor integrity.
If I was that guy, I could fucking put this together
and sell the fuck out of it because it's got a tagline on it,
it's got a hook, and I could definitely take science
to support it.
I could get some science to make it sound good.
I'll call it the every other day diet.
You don't eat whatever you want, just eat every other day.
Fast, three days a week for maximal health and whatever.
Easy, I can fucking write a whole book on that shit.
You guys are pissed off, I said it, because you want to make that book now.
Fast, three days a week.
Yeah.
And then eat everything every other day.
The every other day diet.
Every other day diet.
I know that I would sell millions just to the title alone.
It would be controversial.
He says people should need every day and I'll be like, well, fast thing actually has been
that is that it has nothing to do with the last thing. That is that is a clever idea.
Yeah. That is correct. But we both know that wouldn't be ideal to teach people that.
No, that's why I wouldn't do it. That's why I said, if I was doctor integrity, I would
red tape. I would do it. But I have too much integrity to do it. But but but we could sell the idea to doctor integrity.
Yeah,
Yeah,
The passion box is your idea. Yeah, let's build the IP.
Listen, watch someone come out with that shit now. Like two years from now,
it's gonna be a book. It was it Jason Allen Scott. he was talking about like stealing the whale blubber diet or whatever.
He's making me talk about it.
Yeah, the last one.
He's asking about it.
He's asking about it.
Ask him about it.
You wanted to take the keto diet way back
when we were talking about it originally.
And he's like,
That's how in you would see.
Yeah.
And he's like, you know,
brilliant breakfast.
Whale, seal blubber.
That's a lot of her stuff.
Lunge.
I wanted to do one.
And I would do my diet and mine's probably last
month. What's that? Don't say we're gonna say that if you're gonna do it. Yeah,
it's something that I would well, I would share it with people because if
you know what, if somebody else came up with it, I think it should be shared. I
was starting to mess with it when I was tracking and just fell off. The me
tracking and getting ready for this Olympia weekend that we ended up going to.
And that was rotating your foods
and riding a diet that's more about getting
what you need versus not like restricting the brain.
Don't tell everybody.
He's already talked about this in the show.
Yeah, I've already mentioned this before.
It's not like a big secret.
So it's not a seek out.
Instead of being restrictive, there are no restrictions.
No restrictions.
Aim for these things.
Right, and it would be more like that.
And I didn't, what would take the time to do that?
In rotation, I mean this.
Right, would to go through it.
What's the opposite of the word diet?
That's what it should be called.
Backwards, right?
Tide.
Tide?
Tide.
Damn, not that literally.
Pfft.
Oh.
The tide diet.
This boom, blah, blah.
Follow this tide.
It sounds like detergent, I don't need to.
No, it is detergent, right?
No, I think that would be,
it would take a little bit of time to,
and thought to actually draw it all the way up
to make sure it was well put together.
But I think it would be a really cool strategy for people.
And it's kind of how I coach people anyways.
I wanna do, have you hit your microbes, bro?
Micros?
Yeah, microbes.
Just all focused on microbes.
Oh, my bad.
We do like a knockoff on it.
If it fits my microbes.
Yeah.
And it's all just nutrients.
Just nutrients and minerals.
That's it.
People like, like what the fuck? They're just taking vitamins, though. Yeah, yeah, and it's all just nutrients just nutrients and minerals People like like what the fuck?
And then you know what I wait
It's hard coming out of that
What do you think some of all the diets and stuff that we've seen?
What do you think some of the worst like gimmicky fucking things that we've seen?
I've seen I've seen the celery diet before.
Cabbage diet. They're always on some good morning America bullshit.
They're not crazy to think about that like the some of the worst ones are the ones that get the most
traction. Bro, here's the formula cookie diet. Remember that one? See here's the formula to to selling
a diet book and making millions of dollars. Make it crazy as that's it make it crazy and name it something that's ridiculous like the pizza diet guaranteed
hello people and this is and this is why your idea is actually really good I
know what is yeah the high it is
I just have too much to take it we can't do it with I feel like we could do the
every other day diet would sell so much bro we just got a caution people think of
the science I can put in there that that's all a fasting science. You have no rules, DMI.
And I crushed people in debate.
I would go on a show, a fitness show,
and they'd be like, how could you tell people
to eat every other day?
And they'd be like, do you think our ancestors ate
every single day?
This is how we evolved to eat.
I could sell it.
I just won't do it, because it's bad.
I have too much integrity, like I said.
It's not actually, it's not like.
So out of that, you just get close.
Yeah, I'm so like closing myself over here
on how we can do it right.
Oh, so many dollars.
Because if you,
because okay, let's talk about the bad of that.
How about the don't,
if you're being, if you're being,
the don't eat everyday diet.
Oh, see now,
you can fast one day, we,
it's not negative though.
Yeah, like, ah.
Well, we know, you're the other ones.
I mean, I know how about the one day a week diet,
something like that.
There is one like that, actually.
So it bitch.
There is a diet.
There is a diet, actually, and you know what,
every other day thing, okay, this diet,
actually nothing you say.
I like the every other day thing.
There is a diet that actually promotes this,
eating once every four days or something,
and you can just go to town
On that fourth day, but it's every it's here's why it's a brilliant diet. You're eating
Yeah, let's do this here's why it's a brilliant diet. This is why it's so awesome. It's controversial
It gives people the permission eat whatever the fuck they want on the days that they eat people love that like you know
What I think I have enough you know willpower to not eat yeah two days a week or whatever
But I if I get eat as much as I want
We gotta highlight the the negatives
That's why I hate the fucking term cheat day to you
Yeah, and that's all the focus on the entire day
And just like they're horny for that day
You know, you know
We could we could have it we could create, here's another diet we could invent.
It could be a diet that has the approach like this.
You know the story, like you get caught smoking cigarettes by your parents or whatever.
Your dad takes you in the garage.
You do.
Yeah.
Your dad takes you in the garage and makes you smoke the whole pack so you get sick.
So bad.
And then you never want to smoke cigarettes again because now you've associated that horrible
feeling of pizza.
And I have to eat like 20 pieces.
Maybe we can construct a diet where people list their foods that are their weaknesses and
we can go, okay, in day one, you're gonna eat it.
It's called exposure therapy.
Yeah.
You're gonna eat as much cake as you can or eat cake until you throw up.
Until you throw it.
And you do this with all the foods you want to eat and so people are gonna be like, oh cool.
Yeah.
I get to do that and that might actually work.
You know what I'm saying?
Dude, I can't believe how many people say Gary Vee in the top five
for the most, if I say,
Oh, your time are your posts?
Yeah, the start.
Well, first you have to enlighten the audience.
So I did a post, yeah, pick your starting five.
You're building the ultimate successful business.
Who's your starting five?
And what?
The, where the five people you would have.
Yeah, yeah, that you'd have run it,
run the sucker with you, right?
And a lot of people have put Gary Vee.
And I feel like it's all these young guys.
A lot of these young guys, uh,
he's, cause he comes across as,
hey, he comes across as like,
I mean, the super business guy, and he is excellent,
but I don't think he's been around long enough
to be in the same category of people like Elon Musk
or, you know,
or Oprah Winfrey or any of those.
Yeah, that's why I said,
I don't even know, and that's why I was trying to think.
But that's their exposure, like, you ask a young kid,
you know, just popular right now. Like trying to think. But that's their exposure, like you ask a young kid, you know, she's popular right now.
Like they're not even a think Oprah,
not knowing that woman is not only a billionaire on her own,
created it or nothing, but she also created
many, many, many, multi, multi, millionaires on her own.
herself, she created that.
What are the best communicators out there?
Just a brilliant, brilliant woman.
Yeah, my, my list was,
my thought process was I was looking for brilliant minds,
you know, work ethic and then influencers to sell the fucker, right?
So rock and oprah who's selling my, whatever it is, do whatever we're doing, they're moving
it, right?
You know, I'm saying with their, their power, their influence, that's, that was my thought
process on them.
And then Elon Musk, Bill Gates and Jeff Bezos, I feel like are, I mean, dude, that's that was my thought process on them and then Elon Musk bill gates and Jeff
Basos I feel like are I mean dude that's you talk about the the billionaire brilliant minds
at building businesses and industries right I think that I like how my mind pissed a couple
people off the track well you know it's funny and I love that you you you challenge you you
fired back because it's like of course because, it makes sense because you say Donald Trump, everybody's gonna be like,
oh my God, the politics.
But it's like, take out that he was a president.
Take that. That's the thing. That's the thing you have to do.
Take that out. And he's forget about the, one of the most respected
businessmen and businessmen in the world.
In history, forget about like, you're, you're, you're,
yeah, that's the thing. Like I'm not looking at people and thinking, like,
who I like and who I don't like. Right. Or, or this isn't about who's values your line with.
No, no, no, no, no, say it in the mouth.
I'm looking at a pure business person,
and Donald Trump, whether you like him or not, okay,
and I'm not the biggest fan of Donald Trump,
I make that well known.
But whether you like him or not,
this motherfucker has done some crazy shit
at crazy odds several times in business.
The guy went bankrupt and came back and became a billionaire again
after creating out of a little bit of money,
turning it into massive amounts, employing all these people.
But then here's the part that's crazy.
In this story, people are going to tell
for the rest of the human of American history.
Here's a guy that nobody wanted to win
the presidential election.
Nobody wanted him to win.
Republicans didn't like him either.
A lot of him are kissing his ass now,
but nobody wanted him to win.
And he goes through,
and so to the point where he was made fun of
by everybody on TV laughing whenever he'd even
say he was gonna run.
Yeah, media is against him, everybody.
And he fucking wins.
It's like this guy is, I would hate to go against them for any
reason. So what are you, you're pretty crazy.
It's just crazy. I would hate to go again. He's like, uh,
you know, like every odd possible. Dude, it's a crazy, uh,
it's a crazy story. What do you, what do you have to say though
about? Isn't it weird? Okay. So I don't know how many
comments it's up to now. I think it's up to like 70 something
on my page or whatever. So tons of people have already
started to engage and do this. The two most, you know, consistent comments
that people are saying is either one,
commenting and giving you shit about the Trump,
which, okay, that's one thing.
The other thing is the Gary Vee.
So, and both of those I feel like are heavily influenced
by social media.
And so.
Well, that's the thing I said because he's like,
you know, people having an issue with Trump.
Trump has hated a lot now because he's in politics.
Before that, a lot of people didn't talk shit about him
and he was,
everybody seemed to like him.
I think it's, when you go into politics,
more stuff comes out.
Well, I'm not people like him to fucking vote him
in his president, so he's not that hated. I don't know, man. Like I said, it's crazy. There's a lot of these. My point, though,
is that like it's crazy how much social media influences everybody that that's the two,
those are the two most consistent things that you're seeing on my, my post right now is this,
these kids that actually think that Gary, they live the most.
Gary V is even in the conversation of the top five, and that Donald Trump is unbelievably, how could he be?
So that, to me, is so polarizing right there.
You would put Gary Vee in your top five right here,
and you would actually, and some people would actually
argue and debate the Donald Trump thing,
and it's like, what is feeding that?
What is feeding that the mind?
Perception, dude, it's all perception, right?
It's like, and that couldn't be such a distorted perception
right there.
The fact that you think, what's Gary V. Worth, 50 mil?
Yeah, I mean, that's not respectable or anything like that,
but it's like, and it's, it's just you have to have that.
Didn't he get long history?
Didn't he inherit a $4 million wine business?
I don't know.
Oh, yeah, no, he took it from a $4 million. He took a $4 million wine business to a $60 dollar wine business i don't know he'll help no he took it from a four million
he took a four million dollar wine business to a sixty million dollar wine
business but he inherited a four million dollar
not to take anything for some reason no doubt is about that
and anybody who's been that's built a billion a million dollar business knows
that the difference between going from zero dollars to four million dollars and
going from four million dollars to fifty million dollars is a whole different
monster that's the thing and most guys that have actually done this will tell you that
Going from five to fifty million is actually easier than the zero to five
90% of businesses do not make it past their first year
So fucking a getting from zero to four million is the real win. That's the first big big fucking
You know what I have to take and I know I got a lot of Gary V fucking lovers out there I love the win. That's the first big, big fuck of a nut. To take it, I know I get a lot of Gary V.
Fucking lovers out there.
I love the guy, he's fucking badass.
But I'm just talking about the perception that we have,
that the fact that that many people would put Gary V
on there as their top five
if you're going to build a business.
No, I'll stand behind that.
Like that zero to four.
Man, that's what impresses me the most
in what I'm thinking about like business people
or like who started it from absolutely nothing.
Right.
That is such like an accomplishment.
I can't even like, I know first hand,
like what this is just to get into like, you know,
the hundred thousand into this.
It's just so many odds stacked against you.
According to Wikipedia, V is worth 160 million.
I've read 160, I've read 60, and I've read 10.
So.
You wrote it.
You know what?
Not the last though, still, not the knock, 160 million.
Still, it doesn't even blow it.
Here, let me.
Let me close to fucking Bezos, Bill Gates, fucking Elon Musk.
That's what he's killing it.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Matt respect, love to do, but what it is,
is that he's probably one of the best right now
at communicating to the millennials
and the younger gender and what is the youngest one, Z.
Yeah, he lives in that environment.
He lives on the social media format.
He's one of the forward thinking business people
right now, so I'll give him all the credit all day with that. He's one of the forward-thinking business people right now,
so I'll give him all the credit all day with that.
Here's something else you want to consider.
However hard it is to go from zero to a million
or to four million, it is extremely,
if not more rare and difficult to go from millionaire
to billionaire.
There are very, very few billionaires in the world.
It's very, so, you know, someone,
you make $100 million, you're obviously an incredible
success, but to take 100 million and turn it into a billion, well, now you're a genius.
Very, very few people who've done that themselves, typically what happens is they'll, like, if
GaryVee has kids that then become, and they'd be developed these dynasties that then
turn into billions, but you've got some guys who start with zero or a little bit of money and then turn it into billion. That's a whole
other level.
Well, yeah. No, no, no, that's it. And that was my point. And I, but I think that don't
you find that fascinating though, that when you look at the feed and you pay attention
to like whatever one's saying and commenting, you know, to think that you had a bunch of
people that were fighting you on the Trump thing, you know, and I don't know what is, what's
Trump's net worth?
He's billionaire.
Yeah, right?
He's a for sure billionaire, right?
He's a billionaire.
Right.
So, I mean, you got someone that is a billionaire
and been killing it in business for many, many years
and to argue that is crazy to me, right?
Especially if you're putting people like Gary Vee
in your top five.
So I think that's fascinating.
And I'm a fan of both. I think
they're both badass dudes and we're it's just a fun discussion to have. And what I find
interesting is the perspectives that people have. I think that's really cool. I think
it's and it but it's also very dangerous and scary to think that how easily how easily
like we have but it's not like to this to the level it is right now. The way social media has influenced people now
is nowhere near what a media was 10 years ago
with TV and radio.
We're influencing people way more at a faster rate
and a larger amount due to social media
than what we were.
So that didn't exist 10 years ago.
Well, I mean, what I mean is, we're playing a new game.
What I mean is, you know, false perceptions,
false, ever since, I mean, it's always been around,
but especially when media has existed,
which has been around for a while now,
where people will say something like,
like think about it this way, like,
even today, you can be a social media celebrity,
you could be someone on Instagram that's got like,
tons and tons of followers
You walk the streets and you get recognized like crazy
You could be a celebrity that's from the 90s that people don't really remember anymore at least millennials don't They don't recognize you, but you're worth way for more fucking money
There's a lot of these Instagram celebrities that have like tons of followers whatever
Well, and I'll tell you what I just took all myself out
You know you could argue one of my five by putting the rock in there right because he's not fucking
I don't think he's worth a billion dollars. No, I think you put him there for his social media
Well, I he's just gonna keep rising exactly. I'm looking like he's a monster
I'll tell you why I picked him. I picked him. It's my heart pick right so he's my man crush
Yeah, so that's definitely a heart pick alone. But I mean they've said that this guy could run for president one day
and one day in the near future because of his likeability. So he's on the rise. I think that if I'm looking at my business
and I'm marketing and it's selling it like him and Oprah are my my two that are going to move my company, right?
Like I have my other three is my geniuses behind it. Yeah, I had Dana White as one of those for me.
Right, that's your, that's your,
I thought that was very suspective you.
You really?
I let you go on that one, I was gonna,
I was gonna get after you.
I'd like you to explain yourself.
I'll explain that for mainly,
explain yourself, son.
Promotional, like,
because I actually think,
I actually think Dana White is kind of a dumb dick, dude.
Yeah.
Bro, he took a company I was bleeding,
and he fucking made a crush.
You think so?
He's a big part of it.
Yeah.
He's about 3% part of it, actually.
Well, we're pretty good.
See, this is what I think.
I mean, the Frutitas are the brains behind the whole thing.
Right, definitely.
So, well, there you go then.
That's enough said, enough said right there.
Dana White's interesting character. He's, I could see where I could see where the right with the ration that was okay. Let me let me retract my
What do they say dumb dick? I think that's what they said that's me stern shit up, right? So I like Dana white also
But I'm just saying like on that like yeah, that was more of a fun pick
I'm kind of an agreement with you. He's not like a super powerhouse in comparison to like some other picks that I had, but like, you know, I liked him as like the wild card
in the group.
So that is a wild card for me.
You know what I mean?
To like, to get like more exposure
and get things out there and like move and shake,
shake things up and be sort of the pit bull of the group.
But yeah, I liked, I liked Oprah of course.
Like that was like one of my topics too, for sure.
Elon Musk, who else did I get?
I got Mark Cuban in there.
Oh, I liked your Mark Cuban pick.
So you made up for that.
Yeah, because I mean, Mark Cuban,
you get minus points for the day to night,
but the Mark Cuban pick, I would like that one.
He's a deal maker, man.
That guy is savage.
Yeah, I love watching what he does.
Brilliant businessman, brilliant, brilliant.
He just sees things like, he sees trends
and he sees these things and he just makes things happen, man.
So he was definitely a top pick for me.
Yeah, I really, I put down,
because obviously I had to be people who are alive.
You can't pick.
Oh, because Margaret Thatcher would be a my type.
Yeah, that would be an awesome.
Yeah, that would be nice.
Of course.
For women.
Okay, she's not like,
You're gonna watch her videos of her debating apartment.
Oh, dude, she is like a gangster.
Like, she used to fucking destroy people.
Yeah, in debates and you're sharp.
So, yeah, no, definitely my style for sure.
That 100%.
She would be CEO of a company.
That's my, that would be, if I could do all the time,
like I just, I'm such a fan of Margaret Thatcher
and I think that no matter what, too,
I called out people that didn't have any women in there
and I'm like, how can you not have a powerhouse woman
on your top five team?
Like I just feel like, you have to have that.
I feel like if you're going to build the most
ultimate business, right, the biggest business
in the world, like you gotta have one fucking beast.
One powerhouse.
I would argue, I would even argue, maybe not so much now
moving forward, but definitely in the past,
even if you go back 20 years or so,
that some of these powerhouses, these female powerhouses,
I would even, for example, Oprah,
I would even suggest that she's top,
because you consider the things that the odds
that were against her, especially when she first started,
considering the fact that she's a woman,
that she's a minority, those two factors,
but also the poor, she's not the super attractive,
it's like she had her sex appeal that was selling her.
In fact, she was told by people
that she could never do it because you're not attractive.
You know, she just did it on a fine haul.
She did have a good time.
Not only to fight it, but fucking crush it.
And then she finds talent and turns them into mega.
Turns them into gold.
Like Dr. Oz, Dr. Phil, like those are her dudes.
Well, and her vision to start her own network and do her,
I mean, she did so many things right.
She has incredible vision.
So ridiculous.
Like, you're talking about a genius
that I think is among the best ever, honestly.
Yeah, I mean, if she were like a, she were a dude,
I mean, what would she be doing now?
I mean, consider, like I said, like all the things
that were against her, especially when she was doing it back
in the 70s and 80s.
Did you go through some of these,
I was going through and like, I got, I just chuckled
at some of them on the one side of me.
People put like, like, Jake, Hitler.
Yes, somebody for Jake.
Like he makes really good stops, man.
Yeah, I was like, for a bodybuilder, he's pretty good.
He's a pretty very, very smart business man for a bodybuilder in that world,
which I don't think is a hard, I don't know.
You know, who are brilliant in that world
if you wanna talk about brilliant business people
in the world of bodybuilding fitness, whatever.
Like Joe Weeter or something.
The Weeter Brothers.
Okay, okay, there you go.
Like you're going to be like,
if you want to talk business, you want to talk about.
And even then, I wouldn't put them into the list
but they're like, you know,
for the business inside of fitness.
They invented it, dude.
Yeah, no, they did.
They did.
Think about how brilliant, by the way,
the Weeter-Fuckin Brothers were.
They single-handedly made bodybuilding a thing.
Yeah.
Created magazines to number one.
Wow, somebody's not to make money out of that.
It's literally questioning Oprah right now.
Oh my God.
What?
Oh my God.
Yeah.
I was like, how could you, how could you question Oprah?
It's not even, but I go, like I was saying about the
weeter brothers, they created these magazines.
These magazines, they created to sell their athletes
and their supplements and then ended up selling
magazines as well.
Brilliant, brilliant man in that world.
I don't think there's anybody, you know who else is
really smart in that whole world?
Brilliant, Bill Phillips. I thought you were there's anybody. You know who else is really smart in that whole world? Brilliant.
Bill Phillips.
I thought you were gonna say Aaron.
Well, Bill Phillips was a marketing genius.
Genius.
Yeah, marketing genius for sure.
Like he took the EAS, which was shit when he took it over
and turned it into a thing.
A lot of people don't know that a lot of successful fitness
businesses now modeled a lot of what EAS did.
And bro, he reinvented the whole like the body for life challenge.
That's his deal.
And they are actually up there still with one of the most successful
supplement companies.
And you don't see them anywhere.
You don't see them on TV.
You don't see advertising.
They don't sponsor any bodybuilding athletes.
None of that bullshit.
And they from a dollar year over year,
they are one of the most successful supplement companies
still today.
And you know why?
Cause they had the one, and you could tell,
and this is the vision of a true business man
or woman in their company is,
like right now you got everybody that's all
trying the latest this, that one,
they were working on forging relationships
with companies like Costco. Yeah.
And when you get your brand in somewhere like stream, yeah, game over.
Yes, over.
I remember reading, you don't even need to come up with the latest, greatest,
everybody had a EAS fucking, you know, bag.
So I remember reading Muscle Media 2000, which was their magazine.
People don't realize this, all these magazines really were created to advertise
to you, the supplements that funded these magazines as well as other supplements, but it was
like advertising but information.
This is how much they skewed people's perceptions of what was good for most of them or not.
So I'd read these magazines and there would be like new studies shows how Van itl sulfate
increases insulin sensitivity burns body fat. Now at the time, EAS, Van itl sulfate increases insulin sensitivity burns body fat.
Now, at the time, EAS, Vanityl sulfate
was one of those V2 something,
it was one of the top supplements.
There were articles on creatine,
there were articles on glutamine,
because that was their big stellar.
So really.
Now, way protein, which was way protein was not popular.
They created the game, bro.
They created way protein was ultimate nutrition.
Remember, ultimate nutrition was it ultimate nutrition
or designer protein, that's it, excuse me.
Designer protein was the first big way protein, do you remember that?
Not only do I remember that.
And that was Dan Ducane who worked in a factory
that actually put, I was scooping that into the bottles.
Of design.
So this gives me my, so early years of,
I was skeptical I was about supplements.
I was skeptical about supplements before I even understood them
because I was a kid, 15, 16 years old,
working in a mixing factory for the,
it was a summer job.
And, you know, when we first started,
we were just kind of cleaning and doing stuff
and then we worked into actually a semi-line shit and then working the hopper and doing, uh, doing
this stuff. So I was responsible for filling these jugs up of these massive, massive,
massive things of protein and the amount of stuff that got like mixed or actually, oh,
it was like, there's no regulation. So it's about speed.
It's about speed and cleanliness and getting it quick.
Like that, it's not about, oh, whoops, that's like 1.5 or, oh, cares, you know, moving along.
You know, so we used to do creatine and we used to do a designer way protein product.
Do you guys remember designer?
That was the first way people really bought.
Yeah.
And I know Dan DuKaine, who was Bill Phillips like buddy, was the big guy behind it.
Bill Phillips drove a lot of what you see now.
In fact, I will venture to say, the Weeter Brothers invented the supplement market in terms
of like muscle building fat loss.
They were kind of the ones that pioneered how you sold it.
Then Bill Phillips took it to the model.
You know, it'll be awesome to talk to about this when we get, remember Doug,
you galpin?
Yes, so he's coming here.
Yeah, so Andy's getting up here,
oh god, what did he say?
I don't remember what I was just talking to him.
It's, I think it's the first of October,
somewhere around there, Doug,
but remember, no, let's remember to talk
about this topic with him because he's one of the guys that we've
met recently that blew me away on his level of knowledge in this area that he knows the
whole history.
Yeah.
So he would be fun to talk to and actually speculate some of the stuff that we're talking
about.
No, if you look at, because this is something that I find extremely fascinating because
I was so into this world and so into supplements. And you saw Bill
Phillips create kind of the modern supplement way. He was the first guy to create a supplement
company that really made a shit ton of fucking money. Then you had muscle tech. Muscle tech
really came in and started, they changed things up a little bit. They sold a shit.
Well, they did that. They were the masters of the loading of fucking creatine.
So they created cell tech, which ends up being like all the flavor.
They didn't invent that though.
That was, yes, yes, it had phosphogen.
Yeah, phosphogen.
Phosphogen and HP.
No, no, no.
They were the first ones to talk about it.
Muscle tech went on time.
And then muscle tech took it and got a bodybuilder. Muscle Tech did very well is they and what fostered an HP didn't have
or do they had just a plane raw when they went to a muscle tech, then it was this
flavored shit that you drank and you got like 600 calories of sugar or whatever
was in addition to cretin. So and it was all these. Yeah, and you were trying to
gain weight. So no fucking shit. It put some weightreeteen. So yeah, and it was all these, yeah, and you were trying to gain weight. So no fucking shit to put some weight on you.
Well, so when Creeteen was brilliant,
when Creeteen, I don't know how many jugs of that shit I bought.
You're right, because when Creeteen was first
really promoted and sold,
what you can think, EAS for that,
when Creeteen was first sold,
and that's what made them so big by the way,
because Creeteen actually works, right?
When they were being sold,
they used to tell you theoretically,
and by the way, this is not something that does anything for you.
This was completely one of those things
that is fucking invented by the supplement industry
to sell more product.
Dan DuCane wrote an article about how insulin spiking
or spiking your insulin will drive more or shuttle more amino acids,
nutrients, whatever, into muscle cells,
because that's what insulin kind of does.
So he's like, oh, you know what you do?
Take dextrose with creatine and that should work.
And so, yeah, yes, actually told people,
this is in advance way of taking creatine
is to take dextrose or drink grape juice.
Let's say they say drink grape juice.
I used to mix it in orange juice all the time.
And then you're right, then you had muscle tech come on
and say, oh, it's already in there.
Oh my God, that made me nauseous.
Or is yours was you would you not to mix?
No, no, it was grape juice.
Grape juice, grape juice, grape punch.
Yeah, it was grape juice.
Grape juice, we put it in.
And orange, it's something to do with the,
what was it with the citrus?
The acidity, yeah, the acidity from the,
it converted creatine to like a, like a byproduct.
That was bad for you.
But yeah, it was grape juice because grape juice is so high in the glycemic index.
Right, it was super high in sugar.
Right, so that was what they recommended.
Then muscle tech comes out.
And then the next kind of revolution
that I can remember in the supplement world,
which was a it was a blip.
It was a huge blip because it went up,
spiked lots of popularity, then it dropped.
The Androgens?
Yes, it was the legal leg legality of, because it was,
I took all those two, dude.
Because it was gray marks.
Chew up the chewable ones, stick on your tongue ones,
a spray, the fucking.
I'm talking about every pill, horse pills.
Andro, Standard Day Own.
Yeah, which, yeah, yes, I think, yeah, yes,
was one of the first ones, right?
Because they sold it was,
that was all over the counter, right?
It was all over the counter.
Because because member Mark McGuire was caught taking it. Then you had the designer steroids.
And one of the first ones was God, what was it by Halladrawl? Was one of them superdrawl?
Was another one? Yeah. These were the first biggest one or whatever. Yeah. And Halladrawl was by
Gazpari. Gazpari also made, God, did he make super pump 250? I don't remember, but is it?
That's what made pre-workout.
Isn't Gazpari connected to somebody else too though,
then he didn't, he, he a pivot off of some other company
or Disney connected to somebody else.
Oh God, I don't remember.
But he just come, I don't remember what they're,
I don't know their history as well.
Who made super pump 250?
It was Gazpari.
It was.
Gazpari pretty much invented the pre-workout market.
That was the next big like evolution
in supplementary. I wonder if they would be a great interview. We should put that down
also as a cool interview is to talk to them as to see if they had the foresight.
Dude, to know that they're direction. Let me tell you something right now. You want to talk
about brilliant marketing. Okay, whether you and look, everybody knows my stance or our stance
on pre-workout mixes and whatever, the bullshit. But you have to admire the marketing genius.
He's being a bodybuilder,
Kaspari was one of the best bodybuilders of the 80s,
fucking shredded, that's what he was known for.
Second place to Lee Haney all the time,
probably one of the greatest uncrowned bodybuilders
of all time up there with like Flexbular and Kevler Ronin.
He, knowing muscle building,
knowing that the pull of lifting weights,
he has the foresight
to know that if he attaches a supplement, where he gets a supplement, that he can attach
to giving you a better pump, because everybody loves a pump, he's going to sell a fuck
ton of it.
That's what he does.
Then he takes pictures, this was brilliant marketing in the magazines, I remember it
like I was answering the pump before and after the pump.
He would take dudes and anybody who'd ever
fucking had a massive pump nose
with that feels like.
It's dramatic.
Yeah.
If I got a crazy pump, my before and after
were looking saying you'd post it,
and in the ads it said, you know,
they drank, you know, super pump 250 worked out,
look at the crazy pump they got.
And these are people with a lot of muscle,
they probably give them a lot of water and carbs on top of it.
And you see this huge difference, and it's just, it's the visual set.
Well, check this out.
How crazy is this?
How long was that in the verbiage when you, when people would communicate about a workout?
Like, hey, how was your workout today?
Oh, bro, I got a massive pulse.
Of course.
Like, what does that translate to?
What the fuck does that mean?
Right.
You build a muscle aid.
Right, but it became part of the lingo.
Right, it became, yeah, it became part of the lexicon, right?
Was to talk about the pump in reference
to how good of a workout was.
And how brilliant that you attach that to a supplement.
Brilliant, because you knew that already,
and you also knew that there is some science
that maybe the pump helps build muscle.
So therefore, if we give you these nutrients that may do it
or whatever, there's some science in his product
because he put argonine knowing it's a precursor
of nitric oxide.
By the way, it's a horrible, doesn't really do much for you,
but he's taking again a little bit of science
and kind of and puts fucking stimulants in there.
Are you talking about the N.O. now?
Are we going to the N.O. direction?
No, super pumped 250.
Had that in there.
Oh, it had the N.O. in it?
Super pumped 250 had all the stuff
that like no explode and all.
Well, I remember when that first hit was the one that first hit, when that first hit the market and I started diving
into all of it and reading it up and I'm like, wait a second, like even though all these
studies are showing this, like what we still can't prove is that that taking that nitric
oxide actually even elevates the actual oxygen that's in your blood.
Oh, that stuff?
Yeah, that it actually is, it actually does that. But besides all that, like he invented that,
you, he put a stimulant in there.
You've got these pictures of before and afters,
which are a pump, which always look crazy.
Now guys are taking the supplement
and they're like, oh, fuck, best work out of it.
Because it got, you know, 250 or whatever,
milligrams of caffeine in there, plus other stimulants,
brilliant, completely, Yeah, no, it knows completely shaped the supplement industry all over again. Oh yeah
It flipped it on its head because when you look at a whole new category
Well, and we did this not that long ago right we did a list like are we looked up for Google?
You know the top 10 most sold supplements and like out of the 10 fucking sicks or pre workouts ones like a nice
BC a like a UK and they're like a you can, what's it?
BCAA's like, when did that come up?
I don't remember who did that all these years.
Now BCAA's is old, old bodybuilding supplement that.
It wasn't BCAA's though, it was called something else.
No, it was, okay, so some of the oldest,
old school supplements you'll get for muscle building
were proteins, protein powders,
but they were typically mixes of dry milk
or something like that and they were shit.
But amino acids were some of the first supplements
that were not protein.
And what they were initially
is they were like desiccated liver tablets
or they'd call them like amino's 1800.
Remember these where it would just say amino.
Yes, yes.
And all they were were compressed fucking protein
into tablets.
That's all it was.
Like literally?
So it was like you're getting like two grams of protein
or what was it?
Well, not even two grams.
Do you know what I mean?
You could have just taken like from way
and just kept it in a capsule.
Is that what they did?
Yes.
Wow.
I didn't know that.
Yes. So gangster. Think about it. Okay that what they did? Yeah. Wow. I didn't know that. Yes.
So gangster.
Think about it.
Okay.
Let me ask you this.
So it says six tablets is, you know, 1800 milligrams of amino acids.
Do you know what?
1800 milligrams amino acids is?
What is it?
1.8 grams of protein.
Oh wow.
That's what it is.
It's 1.8 grams of protein.
1800 milligrams of all these things. Which they literally took what a, like, that would be like a tenth of a scoop. That's what it is. It's 1.8 grams of protein, 1800 milligrams of all these things.
Which they literally took what, like, that would be like a tenth of a scoop.
That's so damn good.
Tenth of a scoop, straight out of the table.
It's a total of six.
It's their fucking smart.
And you remember, you used to see those in this, you'd see them at the supplement stores and
they'd be like, Aminos, 2500 or super Aminos, 3000 or it was just protein.
We compressed a little bit.
We made them bigger pills.
We tricked you, assholes. Bro, I bought one when I was a kid.
I bought one that was, I can barely remember those.
Wow.
It was super amino's 4,000.
Of course I got 4,000 because it's more than 1800.
I'm gonna go with the big one.
Where they like horse pills.
Yeah.
They were, bro, I'm not exaggerating, okay.
They were, bro, this is why I can swallow supplements and shit so well because I train myself.
They were tablets that were.
Here was an all his dick.
They were tablets that were this long, this long,
and they were that fat.
It was like, for sure people died trying to swallow
this motherfucker and you would end to serving of it
was 10.
Oh my God.
And it would take, what it would say.
It would say, 10.
And what it would say is take 10 in between every meal.
And that's what you did.
And it made the worst smelling forts of all time.
Oh my God.
Yeah, those were the first like,
that's not real.
Those were the first supplements, bro.
Then it was,
then they would sell like vitamins,
vitamins have been around for a long time.
Then branch chain amino acids,
because studies were showing that giving branch
chaining amino acids to people in protein-deprived states
or burn victims and stuff like that.
You know what, they got better results.
So then they sold the branch chaining amino acids.
That, and that was a long time ago, dude.
It just got rehashed, it got rehashed.
Who is the first to really start going crazy
and unethical with the transformations?
Was that like Xanadrine or one of those like,
oh, I'm sorry.
The cyber genics.
Cyber genics.
Do you remember cyber genics, Doug?
Cyber genics in the 90s, dude.
Do you guys remember these?
It was a box that came with like,
fucking 10 different bought pills.
And it would be like these crazy transformations.
And what they were doing is they were doing the bodybuilder
And telling them to go get a fast-stop lift. Yes, that became a thing. I was like a standard for a long time.
And you'd buy this box which I bought and was expensive like a hundred bucks and it came with a
schedule of how you took these supplements and it was I think it was something like 10 different bottles of supplements
And as a kid who wanted to build muscle 100% believed it would work because it's 10 bottles of supplements.
Of course, it's gonna work. Just fucking 10 bottles.
Just to buy some.
I'm there. I'm huge.
That's really the process.
How we process shit like that.
You know what's sad too?
It makes you think of this when we were talking to Vinny the other day when we just interviewed him.
He is when we were, because this guy, how old was Vinny?
Fifty? Fifty-five. Fifty-five 50 55 55 right so talk about and he's been working
out since he was eight years old. So what a cool guy to talk to
who's been in fitness for that. Yeah, right. So we had a great
conversation and we talked about supplements a little bit in
there not as deeply as we are going right now. But the sad part
that it gets me fresh and it's why too like when I even get
into these debates with people online, I just like I'm just give up. I'm like I'm thinking I have this conversation. It's like 10 20 years ago
like this was even a conversation like we have it's gotten so crazy that we've got people debating
over semantics like over the smallest we're splitting hairs already as it is well here's what they
and then now we're like oh there's you know someone will get an argue will get an argument with me. They're like, there's this study,
this study, this study that shows it,
it's like, yeah, but bro, do you really understand
what you're looking at?
What you're looking at is like,
or how about that?
When you talk about the order of all the things
that you need to work on to be a buffer,
leaner, better version of yourself,
you are like, there's so much shit I can tell you right now
that you can do.
Or even arguing over like stuff like this. Like here's the other thing the supplement industry does very well is when there's so much shit I can tell you right now that you can do. Or even arguing over like stuff like this.
Like here's the other thing the supplement industry does very well,
is when a winner is finally comes out,
so every once in a while, a supplement will come out
that is a winner in the sense that people either love them
and buy them because like pre-workouts,
they like the stimulants, they make them feel good
and they're fun, whatever,
or because they actually work like creatine.
So now you've got a winner, then or protein powder,
that's a winner, right?
Protein powder, I can see some value in it.
About all the different formulations.
And then what they do is they take a winner.
They're doing that with a creatine right now.
I get people inboxing me all the time,
like, should I take this creatine, this creatine,
this creatine or this creatine?
Which one's better?
I saw this start in the...
The one in the sky drew 55.
And I just wanna like slam my head in the wall.
It's because, it's because, there's no longer,
I don't know what to answer,
but they're like, oh, definitely don't take that one,
take this one.
Right.
I want to answer that one.
It's just shit.
And you know what's crazy is,
I know it would make somebody happy.
That's right.
Like if I did that, I could just answer it.
Yeah, they want, like just tell them,
like, oh, no, stay away from that one, definitely do that one.
No, it's people are so free.
Yeah, it's because, it's like 72% better. Yeah, it's because it's like 72% better.
Yeah, it's because the argument,
there's no longer about the argument about like,
whether they work or not,
and nobody knows, great team works.
So now we're gonna make ours away.
Right, and then sell it.
And then we start getting into all the semantics
of it and breaking down every little minute thing.
Look at protein powder.
Yeah, you've got fucking protein.
They came out with protein powder pre-workout. Oh, no, no, different blend for post workout. And then this is the nighttime blend because
it's longer. We talked about this before we went it up. So, you know, the history of before we even
got connected with organifi. And I remember like we almost started our own line. And it was, and we
may one day, right? Because I would love that I still would love in a perfect world to me. It would
be like we've talked about a fucking brown paper bag and just fucking raw way.
Like raw creatine.
Pure as it does.
Pure as it gets.
No marketing and raw.
Exactly.
Brown.
Yeah, as cheap as we can possibly get it, but also from a fucking, extreme good quality.
Yeah, exactly.
The highest quality of your soul.
No added airs or something.
Yeah.
Like I want to go straight to.
Like you have to put it in a refrigerator for cocaine, bro. We're like,'re it's straight. I went straight from Colombia and then put it in a brown paper bag
And I even want the label to say creatine. Yeah, nothing else on it. Oh
Way nothing else on it just and that's all it is one
Ingrid it tastes bland as fuck cuz it is bland and it says on it like put in your refrigerator
Because this is gonna go bad right Because we've added nothing to it.
It's just pure this.
Yeah, so and I remember like we talked about this
and I'm sure people were like,
yeah, you should have done that.
Well, it's cost a lot of money,
takes a lot of focus to do something.
Owning or running a supplement business
is a business in itself and we're still in the middle
of building and growing mind pump.
And it's to me and I think the boys, all of us agree,
that it's just not a priority right now.
And so easier to go with somebody right now
that has a message that aligns with our message, right?
Like if you are gonna take things,
here's, you know, protein, some green juice,
if you don't get a lot of your greens and veggies,
like some real basic stuff that you know
is coming from a good source.
So that's kind of like I feel like, you know, how-
Or just use them for fun. I mean, there's herbs and plants and supplements that do give you an effect
and you can, you know, play with certain things, which is totally fine. There's nothing wrong with that.
It's just, you know, how much of an effect you're going to get when you're eating shit and you're not exercising
or you're not doing the other things that are-
To me, I think that's what what is always bothered all of us is the the marketing behind it
I mean, it is what it is like does it help to take these certain vitamins and minerals if you're lacking well
I think the next big shift in supplements is is the transparency is gonna be transparency and sources like how right how organic it is how good the
sources how pure it is here's all these independent lab results that you can see that show you
I think that's the next evolution of supplements and the ones that understand that are the ones that
I think are going to it's such a it's such a bummer because it's in our in our industry and feel
that's you know if you have any goals of being a million, a hundred
millionaire, you know, that's where you're going.
And going that direction.
I mean, it's creating a lot of compromise.
I had a really good talk with Ben Pacty the day and we were talking about this, this
whole conversation.
I don't know.
I can't disclose everything because I'm not sure what he's disclosed or not, but we
did discuss all the different supplement companies out there and the type of money
they make and this and that. It's crazy that even a supplement company that none of us have even
heard of, and you've never even seen probably, could easily make 10 million a year. There's a lot of
them. There's a lot. There's a lot of companies you've never heard of that make 10 to $50 million
a year and nobody knows who the fuck they are.
But because it's that easy that all you need to get is an X amount, a group of five to
10,000 people.
Here's the thing that there's no doubt and this is the truth.
They want to pill the solve their problem.
This is the truth.
We already have a large enough audience if we came out with a solve.
Oh, I, this would case.
Well, I mean, we hired, so I didn't share this with you guys.
You know, we tell, I complete transparency on the show always that, so, you know, we hired, so I didn't share this with you guys. You know, we tell, I complete transparency on the show always
that, so, you know, we hired a marketing team now
to handle that for us and forever to give us a long time
because we were waiting for someone who had
that could see our message, that understood what we're trying
to do, we finally figured that out.
And we were talking, I wasn't just gonna tell you
about what we were talking about with him,
what we were just talking about, about the,
we could come out, we have a large enough audience.
Oh yeah, so he brings up to me that he has connections
and relationships with supplement companies.
And we start talking about manufacturing
and what that would look like in this net,
and I was telling him, I said, listen, we have all that.
I get all kinds of great connections for that.
We could easily, I said, right now,
we have a 10 to a $20 million supplement business
on our hands if we wanted to.
I said, but I don't wanna do that.
There's so many other things that all the boys and I want
to do for this company that is more important to us.
To me, that would be like, and eventually I do wanna
provide that, like eventually it would be nice to do that.
But where?
No, it's maybe, maybe not, you know what I'm saying?
No, but you don't want to not take it off the table,
but it's got to be what I got to be aligned with us. And what I, and that's what I was
explaining to him is it's, it's we're not in that hurry to get that much money that
what's we're just going to drop it out there right now. It's like when, when we have time,
and we can spend on like, hey, let's talk about what this would look like.
It's a total poll of priorities. I think we, we all sort of share a vision of where we
want to take the company.
And then once we kind of start notching these things off that we want to accomplish,
it may make sense in the future.
Right.
Well, I think this is a cool discussion to have openly on the show too, because I think
a lot of people don't think about this when they're going through a business that you
got to think it's not always about like, it's not always about ROI, right?
There's definitely, if we decided to stop
whole on all the things that we're working on
and what we're trying to do within MindPuff
and said, hey, you know what?
We've got fucking $10 million a year here right now.
Let's get it.
Let's put this to other stuff on the back burner.
Let's get that because we know it's there.
And if we spend the money, we spend the time
that we can make that kind of money.
It's like, well, yeah, but that's such a small,
just like we talk about what it does for people.
To me, it's such a small part of what our business should
run.
No, and it's also, I don't want to be a supplement company.
And it's also, I don't want it to be a supplement.
It's also, we're driven by our message and our integrity
and what we really, I guess success is great,
monetary success is great, but there's
the other side of success that we all consider
to be very
strong, you know, priorities for us.
And that's the success in actually influencing the industry a little bit for the positive
and better behavior and better behavior and helping people to get to a point where health
and wellness and fitness is how they live and it's great and they love it and everybody
feels good.
And so that's the other side of success.
I wouldn't feel successful if I made tens of millions
of dollars and I didn't achieve any of that.
Well, especially if we did it through my supplements,
that would, I couldn't, I would eat away at me,
like crazy, it would eat away at me
that it would become the most profitable part
of the business, right?
I don't want it, if it does, it won't be.
That's how I feel, I feel like,
and that's why I told, I was a stripper
to pay for college, you know. I had to do it. I had to want it. If it does, it won't be. That's how I feel. I feel like, and that's why I told, I was like, I was a stripper to pay for college.
You know, I had to do it.
I had to do it.
Yeah.
It's like a level.
And if we, if we do, I guess we'll just be honest, right?
We'll just put it out there.
We'll just tell, we'll just tell.
Listen, I'm doing this only because I'm trying to pay for college.
Listen, listen, listen, everybody.
This is what I had to do.
So it's helping brother out.
Bro, we're not even finished with our website, dude.
Like, come on, like, our website's being redesigned right now.
And that's that's such a high priority that that there was no
marketing on Facebook and social media.
Like there's so many other things that are way more important than
doing that, you know, I'm saying. And so, yeah, I don't know.
I was a good discussion. We needed to have.
It is. And I'll tell you what, every time I meet someone like Liz,
who we met with in LA yesterday,
and you meet like a real fan,
and they talk about how much we've been able to impact them
in all these positive ways,
in all these very healthy ways.
Like that to me is like, that is such a big part
of the success that I want.
Well, what was dope to hear her say, that was really neat, was to hear that, like that is such a big part of the success that I want.
Well, what was dope to hear her say that was really neat was to hear that, you know,
her show is inspired from what we did, you know, like it was,
it's literally is what inspired her to do that.
Sure.
Yep.
And, and our message is carrying on through somebody else,
yeah, who's now influencing, I don't mean,
I don't know how I'm referring to her.
Lesson with a similar undertone. on through somebody else who's now influencing, I don't know how much more listening to it.
Message with a similar undertone.
I mean, she's evolved it into something else,
but it's totally, you made it awesome to watch.
We made a positive impact and you can't put a dollar sign
on that, you just can't do it.
So, you know, whatever, that's fine.
I also believe though that, and look, history,
there's lots of good examples of this
where people kind of stuck to their, what they believed in.
And, you know, it sounds like what they're doing is bad.
Like, oh, you're making a bad decision.
Dr. Dre did this several times where he left, you know,
situations where he's already making shit tons of money
and he just left it on the table because he didn't believe in it.
And look how, you know, stuff turned out for him.
Now for him. And then he still kept going.
Steve Jobs, fuck, he got fired.
Well, you know why I think people like that and the brilliance in them, because a lot
of people might would try and argue probably that he's not the most brilliant man because
he doesn't have the super high education with that, but he's definitely a visionary for sure.
Oh, come on.
Yeah, no, he's just measured brilliance and measured, you measured, you know, uh, there's different types of brilliance.
Yeah, there is.
There is.
To see that, right, to understand that, you know, you have to know, like if you know if
you're going to make something and become a billion dollar company or even in the millions
of dollars, right, like you know the amount of time, dedication and how much it's going
to consume your life bottom line.
Like you're just, unless you get fucking lucky, you strike gold and you make a right call
on a stock or some crazy shit or inherit something like that. If you build a fucking monster, you are
married to it more so than you are your fucking spouse. So you better fucking love it and you better
be in line with its values or else you're gonna hate life. And I think really, really intelligent
guys like that see that and understand that. No, like that is more important because you know that if I'm going to bury the way I'm going
to become successful, I'm going to bury myself into this thing that I'm passionate about.
And I know that I'm talented enough that I can bury myself into anything I'm making
successful.
But if I'm going to do this for life, I'm going to change my answer.
Okay.
So I'm taking Daniel and I have to list.
Okay.
I'm putting Richard Branson in there.
Oh, yeah. Some people said Richard Branson.
I actually sat out.
I like him a lot.
Oh yeah, that was another guy.
I said that's what you're gonna about.
I can easily make his way on that list too.
That's fucking for sure.
Top five.
