Why Sometimes You Need To Just Say Fuck It

1
00:00:00,277 --> 00:00:05,557
Most self -help podcasts tell you how to
get a little bit better every single day.

2
00:00:05,557 --> 00:00:08,417
Today we're going to tell you not to do a
fucking thing

3
00:00:08,495 --> 00:00:11,740
Stick around to find out why today, maybe
you should just say fuck it.

4
00:00:33,776 --> 00:00:36,496
So Zach, I don't know if you know this
about me, but occasionally when I head

5
00:00:36,496 --> 00:00:39,656
into the gym and I'm lifting the heavy
things, there's a lot of downtime, right?

6
00:00:39,656 --> 00:00:42,996
You're just sitting there on the bench
waiting for your minute rest to go by or

7
00:00:42,996 --> 00:00:43,516
whatever.

8
00:00:43,516 --> 00:00:46,296
That's what I like to jump into the social
media and see what people are doing.

9
00:00:46,296 --> 00:00:50,596
I'm by myself in the gym, so the only
social interaction I get is online.

10
00:00:50,596 --> 00:00:54,056
So there I was looking at threads the
other day, and I saw a post that I thought

11
00:00:54,056 --> 00:00:57,096
was interesting that I thought we should
talk about, and it's from somebody who's,

12
00:00:57,096 --> 00:01:00,376
they go by EmilyDean .photography, but
they said,

13
00:01:00,464 --> 00:01:03,904
Today my therapist reminded me of the
importance of fuck it days.

14
00:01:03,904 --> 00:01:06,704
Days where you aren't constantly
monitoring yourself for growth and

15
00:01:06,704 --> 00:01:07,304
progress.

16
00:01:07,304 --> 00:01:11,264
Days where you let yourself just be and
exist.

17
00:01:11,276 --> 00:01:13,116
Wow, fucking day.

18
00:01:13,116 --> 00:01:16,908
I've had the last couple of months, I've
had a couple of fucking weeks.

19
00:01:16,908 --> 00:01:21,845
think I had like 40 fuck it years is kind
of the boy got me into this mess.

20
00:01:22,220 --> 00:01:25,960
Yeah, and now they're a thing you have to
plan for?

21
00:01:25,960 --> 00:01:26,605
Is it?

22
00:01:26,605 --> 00:01:27,865
So why don't do you have to plan?

23
00:01:27,865 --> 00:01:31,345
I mean, if you're planning it, you're sort
of defeating the purpose of just saying,

24
00:01:31,345 --> 00:01:32,236
Fuck it.

25
00:01:32,236 --> 00:01:34,096
Well, I don't know about that.

26
00:01:34,096 --> 00:01:37,416
I think it's, it's a, okay, I like the
concept.

27
00:01:37,416 --> 00:01:38,156
I love it.

28
00:01:38,156 --> 00:01:44,816
And I've had those days and they usually
come up when I don't, like, I just don't

29
00:01:44,816 --> 00:01:45,476
have anything else.

30
00:01:45,476 --> 00:01:47,736
Like there's, I didn't plan it.

31
00:01:47,736 --> 00:01:51,196
However, they are few and far between.

32
00:01:51,196 --> 00:01:55,276
I don't know, maybe a couple, a couple
more f****g days out there would be more

33
00:01:55,276 --> 00:01:56,286
beneficial to me.

34
00:01:56,286 --> 00:02:01,296
And in that case, I would have to plan at
least to have the day, right?

35
00:02:01,296 --> 00:02:02,092
Because,

36
00:02:02,092 --> 00:02:06,632
I'd have to cancel meetings and tell
people I'm not gonna respond and like, and

37
00:02:06,632 --> 00:02:07,952
just free up the calendar, right?

38
00:02:07,952 --> 00:02:12,612
Because, you know, like you, there's, you
know, 30 ,000 other people depending on me

39
00:02:12,612 --> 00:02:14,532
to do things for them.

40
00:02:14,652 --> 00:02:20,792
And yeah, I think you'd have to plan it a
little bit, but I like the concept of I'm

41
00:02:20,792 --> 00:02:23,443
just gonna take a day and whatever fucking
happens, happens.

42
00:02:23,443 --> 00:02:26,003
I guess it depends on how far you want to
go with the fuck it.

43
00:02:26,003 --> 00:02:29,293
I mean, if it's literally like work
responsibilities, family responsibilities,

44
00:02:29,293 --> 00:02:32,103
like all of the stuff, I'm just taking it
off the table.

45
00:02:32,103 --> 00:02:33,723
Yeah, you got to plan that.

46
00:02:33,723 --> 00:02:36,583
But I mean, you can have a fuck it
daylight, right?

47
00:02:36,583 --> 00:02:38,293
Where it's like you just sort of wake up
and you're like, you know what?

48
00:02:38,293 --> 00:02:40,703
Today, I'm not going to worry about what
I'm going to eat today.

49
00:02:40,703 --> 00:02:43,793
I'm not going to worry if I get my 10 ,000
steps in like you can.

50
00:02:43,793 --> 00:02:45,619
You can apply those things.

51
00:02:45,619 --> 00:02:49,179
But I also think there's a danger of going
down a slippery slope of all of a sudden

52
00:02:49,179 --> 00:02:51,529
like, this is easy living.

53
00:02:51,529 --> 00:02:53,379
I don't have to keep track of this.

54
00:02:53,379 --> 00:02:55,139
What if I also don't keep track of that?

55
00:02:55,139 --> 00:03:00,099
And all of a sudden, six months later,
you're just a blob of a shell of a person

56
00:03:00,099 --> 00:03:01,548
you used to be.

57
00:03:01,548 --> 00:03:04,728
A blob of a shell of a person.

58
00:03:05,228 --> 00:03:11,488
All I can think of is the people floating
around in chairs in the movie Wall -E.

59
00:03:11,488 --> 00:03:11,980
Right?

60
00:03:11,980 --> 00:03:12,940
we're aiming for, right?

61
00:03:12,940 --> 00:03:15,820
We just don't want to end up the people in
Wall -E.

62
00:03:15,820 --> 00:03:17,500
Yeah, exactly.

63
00:03:18,440 --> 00:03:19,250
Yeah, I know.

64
00:03:19,250 --> 00:03:22,179
I've definitely had days like that.

65
00:03:22,700 --> 00:03:24,800
And even on days where I have to work,
right?

66
00:03:24,800 --> 00:03:31,220
I know I've definitely done it
unconsciously where I just don't try as

67
00:03:31,220 --> 00:03:31,410
hard.

68
00:03:31,410 --> 00:03:34,600
Where you just need that, like, you get a
couple of things done that you need to get

69
00:03:34,600 --> 00:03:36,920
done and you don't push.

70
00:03:36,920 --> 00:03:41,320
You don't, you just don't push yourself
the way you normally do.

71
00:03:41,500 --> 00:03:43,852
And those days are usually really good for
me.

72
00:03:43,852 --> 00:03:49,732
I've had a lot of those days recently
where I go like two or three days of like

73
00:03:49,732 --> 00:03:58,092
90 miles an hour, nonstop from 5 .30 in
the morning to 8 .30 at night with all the

74
00:03:58,092 --> 00:03:58,442
things.

75
00:03:58,442 --> 00:04:01,632
And then I just like hit the bed and I'm
just like, what the fuck just happened

76
00:04:01,632 --> 00:04:02,432
today?

77
00:04:02,432 --> 00:04:06,572
But I've had a bunch of days in the past,
like I've been doing like three or four

78
00:04:06,572 --> 00:04:07,072
days of that.

79
00:04:07,072 --> 00:04:12,532
And then all of a sudden Friday, I'm like,
I just need to calm down and relax, not do

80
00:04:12,532 --> 00:04:13,196
that.

81
00:04:13,196 --> 00:04:17,806
Like take an extra hour at the gym, like,
you know, go work out and then stretch,

82
00:04:17,806 --> 00:04:22,596
big air quotes here, stretch, roll around
on the floor for another 45 minutes.

83
00:04:23,176 --> 00:04:25,157
With my eyes closed half the time.

84
00:04:25,157 --> 00:04:29,337
It's funny when you do take this approach
to things and I've done it a couple of

85
00:04:29,337 --> 00:04:29,777
times.

86
00:04:29,777 --> 00:04:33,196
Most recently yesterday I was just in the
gym and I went in, you know, dealing with

87
00:04:33,196 --> 00:04:37,137
this this injury and kind of trying to let
myself off the hook a little bit of, you

88
00:04:37,137 --> 00:04:38,347
know, don't worry about what's on the bar.

89
00:04:38,347 --> 00:04:40,597
Just lift what you can that doesn't hurt
that sort of thing.

90
00:04:40,597 --> 00:04:45,337
But it was funny how like lowering my
expectations, I actually outperformed what

91
00:04:45,337 --> 00:04:48,817
I would have thought I would have
otherwise done because I just went in with

92
00:04:48,817 --> 00:04:50,047
like no rules.

93
00:04:50,047 --> 00:04:53,577
I can do whatever feels good today and I
actually.

94
00:04:54,277 --> 00:04:55,877
did more than I expected.

95
00:04:55,877 --> 00:05:00,217
And I think that maybe sometimes the bar
that I set for myself is so high that the

96
00:05:00,217 --> 00:05:03,677
pressure gets in the way of actually
accomplishing it, where if I just kind of

97
00:05:03,677 --> 00:05:07,545
go, this is just for fun, this is just for
me, I'm just doing this because I want to,

98
00:05:07,545 --> 00:05:09,166
It tends to pay off for

99
00:05:09,230.2193165696226 --> 00:05:14,430.2193165696226
Well, it pays off for you and sometimes
like you get in your own head too.

100
00:05:14,430.2193165696226 --> 00:05:22,714.2193165696226
So I was doing, we were doing barbell
cleans at the gym and I think them.

101
00:05:22,714.2193165696226 --> 00:05:25,314.2193165696226
the spray and you hose down the bar and
clean it.

102
00:05:25,314.2193165696226 --> 00:05:26,593.2193165696226
Is that what that means?

103
00:05:26,914.2193165696226 --> 00:05:27,234.2193165696226
no.

104
00:05:27,234.2193165696226 --> 00:05:30,804.2193165696226
Barbo, a clean is when you take it from
the ground to a front rack position.

105
00:05:30,804.2193165696226 --> 00:05:34,14.219316569622606
So like from the ground to the front of
your shoulders.

106
00:05:34,334.2193165696226 --> 00:05:39,774.2193165696226
And so you just literally have to pick it
up and then get it to your shoulders and

107
00:05:39,774.2193165696226 --> 00:05:42,133.2193165696226
kind of get your arms under it.

108
00:05:42,734.2193165696226 --> 00:05:47,334.2193165696226
Anyway, I think the like since I hurt my
shoulder, like that move was really

109
00:05:47,334.2193165696226 --> 00:05:48,554.2193165696226
painful for me.

110
00:05:48,554.2193165696226 --> 00:05:53,334.2193165696226
So because you have to bend your elbow and
your or you have to bend your elbow and

111
00:05:53,334.2193165696226 --> 00:05:54,318.2193165696226
twist your.

112
00:05:54,318.2193165696226 --> 00:05:56,418.2193165696226
your shoulder up a little bit.

113
00:05:56,418.2193165696226 --> 00:06:00,698.2193165696226
So I was going really light and I think
the most I had done was like, I don't

114
00:06:00,698.2193165696226 --> 00:06:04,938.2193165696226
know, I was like 155 or something like
that, which was, you know, a lot for me

115
00:06:04,938.2193165696226 --> 00:06:07,578.2193165696226
because I was injured and that was, you
know, painful.

116
00:06:07,578.2193165696226 --> 00:06:13,358.2193165696226
And the other day I was there and I was
like, I'm just, I'm tired of like, you

117
00:06:13,358.2193165696226 --> 00:06:16,318.2193165696226
know, picking my goal, getting to it and
then failing.

118
00:06:16,318.2193165696226 --> 00:06:18,618.2193165696226
I'm just going to keep adding weight until
I fail.

119
00:06:18,618.2193165696226 --> 00:06:20,638.2193165696226
I'm just going to keep adding weight until
I fail.

120
00:06:20,638.2193165696226 --> 00:06:23,342.2193165696226
And by the end of it, I was at

121
00:06:23,342.2193165696226 --> 00:06:26,982.2193165696226
165 and like, you know, I did it put it
down.

122
00:06:26,982.2193165696226 --> 00:06:30,102.2193165696226
I was like, that's probably that must have
been like 145 or something like that.

123
00:06:30,102.2193165696226 --> 00:06:34,222.2193165696226
And I added it all up and it was 165 and I
was like, that's the most I've done in a

124
00:06:34,222.2193165696226 --> 00:06:34,942.2193165696226
long, long time.

125
00:06:34,942.2193165696226 --> 00:06:36,522.2193165696226
Like because I wasn't.

126
00:06:36,522.2193165696226 --> 00:06:39,471.2193165696226
And then the next week I was like, I got
to 165.

127
00:06:39,471.2193165696226 --> 00:06:43,202.2193165696226
I knew I was at 165 and I did 165 and I
was like, I'm going to try for 175.

128
00:06:43,202.2193165696226 --> 00:06:46,562.2193165696226
And I failed because I was in my head.

129
00:06:46,702.2193165696226 --> 00:06:46,922.2193165696226
Right.

130
00:06:46,922.2193165696226 --> 00:06:48,575.2193165696226
I don't think it was because it's too
heavy.

131
00:06:48,575.2193165696226 --> 00:06:52,655.2193165696226
No, you totally overthought it and had
that expectation for yourself.

132
00:06:52,735.2193165696226 --> 00:06:56,495.2193165696226
The the other thing that I've noticed,
especially like I recently traveled and

133
00:06:56,495.2193165696226 --> 00:07:01,635.2193165696226
was in Europe and I came back and I loved
sort of not worrying so much about what I

134
00:07:01,635.2193165696226 --> 00:07:04,515.2193165696226
was eating and just sort of went with what
felt right.

135
00:07:04,515.2193165696226 --> 00:07:06,175.2193165696226
Ate when I was hungry, that sort of thing.

136
00:07:06,175.2193165696226 --> 00:07:11,35.219316569622606
And so I've tried to apply that at home
and not like tracking every macro and

137
00:07:11,35.219316569622606 --> 00:07:12,555.2193165696226
worrying about every calorie.

138
00:07:12,575.2193165696226 --> 00:07:18,663.2193165696226
And it's been it's been weirdly freeing to
think so much less about what I'm eating.

139
00:07:18,663.2193165696226 --> 00:07:20,903.2193165696226
just sort of eating what feels natural
like that.

140
00:07:20,903.2193165696226 --> 00:07:23,43.219316569622606
What do they call intuitive eating or
whatever.

141
00:07:23,103.2193165696226 --> 00:07:27,423.2193165696226
Like actually just eating when your body
tells you it's hungry and occasionally

142
00:07:27,423.2193165696226 --> 00:07:32,883.2193165696226
when you're feeling too many feelings but
not worrying about it so much has been

143
00:07:32,883.2193165696226 --> 00:07:33,543.2193165696226
kind of freeing.

144
00:07:33,543.2193165696226 --> 00:07:38,303.2193165696226
And I just noticed that like just sort of
that fuck it approach of like not letting

145
00:07:38,303.2193165696226 --> 00:07:42,633.2193165696226
it rule so much time in my in my head
reduces my stress.

146
00:07:42,633.2193165696226 --> 00:07:45,743.2193165696226
And so I don't know if there's enough of a
trade off or it's like maybe I'm not

147
00:07:45,743.2193165696226 --> 00:07:47,323.2193165696226
eating as well but I'm stressed less.

148
00:07:47,323.2193165696226 --> 00:07:48,421.2193165696226
So.

149
00:07:48,448.2193165696226 --> 00:07:50,855.9306511853356
Does it does it all come out in the wash,

150
00:07:50,855.9306511853356 --> 00:07:53,805.9306511853356
And it's not that I'm sitting here like
shoving cake and ice cream in my face.

151
00:07:53,805.9306511853356 --> 00:07:56,555.9306511853356
Like I'm still eating a relatively healthy
diet.

152
00:07:56,555.9306511853356 --> 00:07:59,142.9306511853356
I'm just not stressed about every number.

153
00:07:59,713.2048113613855 --> 00:08:03,913.2048113613855
It's interesting that you say that though,
because I have been super stressed about

154
00:08:03,913.2048113613855 --> 00:08:06,133.2048113613855
my food recently.

155
00:08:06,133.2048113613855 --> 00:08:12,93.2048113612691
Not in the calories or anything like that,
but eating the right things for me and

156
00:08:12,93.2048113612691 --> 00:08:15,93.2048113612691
doing what I love at the same time.

157
00:08:15,93.2048113612691 --> 00:08:20,213.2048113612691
Because I'm a, you know, I don't know if
many people know this, but I love to cook.

158
00:08:20,213.2048113612691 --> 00:08:22,863.2048113612691
I don't have the opportunity to cook very
often.

159
00:08:22,863.2048113612691 --> 00:08:27,53.204811361269094
And I think I cooked, you've had my food
before and it's passable.

160
00:08:27,53.204811361269094 --> 00:08:28,273.2048113612691
It's okay.

161
00:08:30,113.2048113612691 --> 00:08:32,753.2048113612691
Although I usually, I would always make
things with meat, so you never really ate

162
00:08:32,753.2048113612691 --> 00:08:37,208.91734419600107
my I have like all these cholesterol
issues where I like, I literally have to

163
00:08:37,208.91734419600107 --> 00:08:38,948.9173441960011
eat basically vegan.

164
00:08:38,948.9173441960011 --> 00:08:44,428.91734419600107
Like, I can't have saturated fat or
cholesterol in my diet, or it just spikes

165
00:08:44,428.91734419600107 --> 00:08:48,648.9173441960011
to the point where like, you know, 10
years of that and I'm gonna be done.

166
00:08:49,388.91734419600107 --> 00:08:53,398.91734419600107
Yet at the same time, like, you know, I
made a beef Wellington the other night,

167
00:08:54,107.83978719601873 --> 00:08:55,307.83978719601873
But I made it and I didn't eat it.

168
00:08:55,307.83978719601873 --> 00:08:57,7.839787196018733
So I've got this huge conflict.

169
00:08:57,7.839787196018733 --> 00:08:59,91.83978719601873
Like I made beef welling and like...

170
00:08:59,409.94689663359895 --> 00:09:05,909.946896633599
I'm making all this food that I just, I
love making and I can't eat any of it.

171
00:09:05,909.946896633599 --> 00:09:12,889.946896633599
So it's like this, this really weird
struggle for me in that, like, I have to

172
00:09:12,889.946896633599 --> 00:09:17,389.94689663359895
eat a certain way, but I love to cook a
certain way and I can't eat any of it.

173
00:09:17,389.94689663359895 --> 00:09:19,529.946896633599
I'm not counting my calories or anything
like that.

174
00:09:19,529.946896633599 --> 00:09:22,429.94689663359895
I'm just counting saturated fat and
cholesterol that's in the food.

175
00:09:22,429.94689663359895 --> 00:09:24,449.94689663359895
It's a very interesting way of living.

176
00:09:24,449.94689663359895 --> 00:09:24,632.946896633599
So.

177
00:09:24,632.946896633599 --> 00:09:25,572.946896633599
so why bother?

178
00:09:25,572.946896633599 --> 00:09:27,738.946896633599
Why are you making food you can't eat?

179
00:09:27,921.946896633599 --> 00:09:30,56.94689663359895
because I just enjoy the process of doing
it.

180
00:09:30,280.94689663359895 --> 00:09:32,510.94689663359895
So you're just feeding others then is the
idea.

181
00:09:32,510.94689663359895 --> 00:09:37,760.946896633599
And then you're just leaving yourself a
nice dry salad to eat while everyone else

182
00:09:37,760.946896633599 --> 00:09:38,928.946896633599
enjoys your steak.

183
00:09:38,928.946896633599 --> 00:09:39,979.7089802970877
Yeah, that's

184
00:09:39,979.7089802970877 --> 00:09:44,273.7089802970877
That sounds like a disappointing and
stressful, terrible way to live.

185
00:09:44,273.7089802970877 --> 00:09:46,969.7089802970877
It's kind of a shitty life, yeah.

186
00:09:48,562.7089802970877 --> 00:09:50,782.7089802970877
But it's okay, I enjoy it.

187
00:09:50,782.7089802970877 --> 00:09:53,542.7089802970877
It's challenging, it really is
challenging, but you know what?

188
00:09:53,542.7089802970877 --> 00:09:54,222.7089802970877
It's worth it.

189
00:09:54,222.7089802970877 --> 00:09:58,382.7089802970877
I'm like doing the thing I love to do, and
I'm eating the way that I need to eat to

190
00:09:58,382.7089802970877 --> 00:10:00,832.7089802970877
live for another 30 years as opposed to
dying at 10.

191
00:10:00,832.7089802970877 --> 00:10:03,407.7089802970877
So, it is what it is.

192
00:10:03,499.7089802970877 --> 00:10:05,419.7089802970877
It's a fair trade off, I suppose.

193
00:10:05,719.7089802970877 --> 00:10:09,145.1897925049998
30 more years of suffering rather than 10
more years of enjoying your

194
00:10:09,145.1897925049998 --> 00:10:10,545.1897925049998
Exactly.

195
00:10:11,475.34252270299476 --> 00:10:13,228.34252270299476
Now I need to go rethink my life.

196
00:10:13,228.34252270299476 --> 00:10:14,828.3425227029948
Hahaha!

197
00:10:15,126.34252270299476 --> 00:10:17,666.3425227029948
So to circle it back to what you were
saying in the beginning about planning the

198
00:10:17,666.3425227029948 --> 00:10:22,266.34252270299476
fuck a day, I think that's the thing that
when I do allow myself a fuck a day, it's

199
00:10:22,266.34252270299476 --> 00:10:24,16.342522702994756
usually kind of a spur of the moment.

200
00:10:24,16.342522702994756 --> 00:10:25,6.342522702994756
It's you know, it's Friday.

201
00:10:25,6.342522702994756 --> 00:10:26,556.3425227029948
I know I'm going to go to the movies that
night.

202
00:10:26,556.3425227029948 --> 00:10:28,916.3425227029948
So there's probably going to be popcorn
and candy and shit.

203
00:10:28,916.3425227029948 --> 00:10:32,346.34252270299476
And so it'll be kind of like, all right,
today, no rules.

204
00:10:32,346.34252270299476 --> 00:10:32,946.3425227029948
Do whatever.

205
00:10:32,946.3425227029948 --> 00:10:37,786.3425227029948
It'll be that sort of spur of the moment
decision and not like next Saturday, I'm

206
00:10:37,786.3425227029948 --> 00:10:38,226.34252270299476
going to whatever.

207
00:10:38,226.34252270299476 --> 00:10:41,566.3425227029948
But I know you you have kind of more of a
built in schedule where on the weekends

208
00:10:41,566.3425227029948 --> 00:10:42,986.3425227029948
you sort of let yourself off the hook
more.

209
00:10:42,986.3425227029948 --> 00:10:44,726.3425227029948
Is that is that still what you're doing?

210
00:10:45,619.3425227029948 --> 00:10:46,739.3425227029948
yeah, for the most part.

211
00:10:46,739.3425227029948 --> 00:10:53,499.34252270299476
I mean, I, I, the way my schedule
basically goes is weekdays, it's coffee in

212
00:10:53,499.34252270299476 --> 00:10:57,659.3425227029948
the morning, no food until like one or two
o 'clock.

213
00:10:58,239.34252270299476 --> 00:11:01,419.34252270299476
I'm not, again, I'm not like holding out
or anything like that.

214
00:11:01,419.34252270299476 --> 00:11:05,319.34252270299476
I just, I'm not hungry at all.

215
00:11:05,319.34252270299476 --> 00:11:10,674.3165611658478
And I know that as soon as I eat, I get
like really so I kind of hold out as long

216
00:11:10,674.3165611658478 --> 00:11:11,224.31656116584782
as I can.

217
00:11:11,224.31656116584782 --> 00:11:12,522.3165611658478
Anyway, so I eat.

218
00:11:12,522.3165611658478 --> 00:11:14,112.31656116584782
really quick and then I eat like a dip.

219
00:11:14,112.31656116584782 --> 00:11:18,302.3165611658478
So all of my food comes in like a six hour
window on weekdays.

220
00:11:18,302.3165611658478 --> 00:11:21,2.3165611658478156
And I don't know about you, I can't eat
that much food.

221
00:11:21,2.3165611658478156 --> 00:11:26,222.31656116584782
So like if I'm even in that six hour
window, like I can only eat like 1500 to

222
00:11:26,222.31656116584782 --> 00:11:30,62.316561165847816
2000 calories because, and I'm not eating
junk food, right?

223
00:11:30,62.316561165847816 --> 00:11:32,562.3165611658478
I'm eating like relatively healthy stuff.

224
00:11:32,562.3165611658478 --> 00:11:35,182.31656116584782
So I just can't eat that many calories in
that window.

225
00:11:35,182.31656116584782 --> 00:11:37,774.3165611658478
And then on the weekend it's, it's,

226
00:11:37,774.3165611658478 --> 00:11:41,954.3165611658478
intentional or that's just sort of what
your body demands at this point?

227
00:11:43,114.31656116584782 --> 00:11:43,946.3165611658478
Yeah.

228
00:11:43,946.3165611658478 --> 00:11:48,926.3165611658478
that is problematic because I don't get
enough protein because I do work out

229
00:11:48,926.3165611658478 --> 00:11:50,376.3165611658478
really hard, right?

230
00:11:50,376.3165611658478 --> 00:11:56,636.3165611658478
And like my, you know, there is this, you
can't have a fuck it week.

231
00:11:56,636.3165611658478 --> 00:11:57,406.3165611658478
That's for sure.

232
00:11:57,406.3165611658478 --> 00:12:02,166.31656116584782
Especially if you're working out like I
do, like you have to have the proper

233
00:12:02,166.31656116584782 --> 00:12:04,106.31656116584782
nutrition and feed yourself appropriately.

234
00:12:04,106.31656116584782 --> 00:12:08,496.3165611658478
So in those six hours, I have to get in
like a ridiculous amount of protein.

235
00:12:08,496.3165611658478 --> 00:12:10,665.3165611658478
So I have like two protein smoothies.

236
00:12:10,665.3165611658478 --> 00:12:15,85.31656116584782
You know a whole bunch of you know, pea
protein and fake protein that comes with

237
00:12:15,85.31656116584782 --> 00:12:19,205.31656116584782
impossible burgers and thing all that
processed crap that I don't want to eat

238
00:12:19,205.31656116584782 --> 00:12:23,765.3165611658478
But I need the protein that's in it
Because impossible burgers.

239
00:12:23,765.3165611658478 --> 00:12:25,305.3165611658478
my god, they give me the worst

240
00:12:25,438.7839270902332 --> 00:12:28,158.7839270902332
I don't know if I've ever been more glad
that you're 2 ,000 miles

241
00:12:28,634.9666256837081 --> 00:12:32,294.9666256837081
But yeah, during the week it is a little
bit more regimented in that sense.

242
00:12:32,294.9666256837081 --> 00:12:38,809.010492727044
But then on the weekend, like I'll eat
later, I'll eat earlier, just I have that

243
00:12:38,809.010492727044 --> 00:12:42,349.01049272704404
mental crash at 10 o 'clock in the
morning, it's fine with me, it's okay.

244
00:12:42,349.01049272704404 --> 00:12:45,789.010492727044
So I just consume more calories on the
weekend and I'll let myself eat a little

245
00:12:45,789.010492727044 --> 00:12:47,689.010492727044
bit of ice cream if I want to.

246
00:12:47,689.010492727044 --> 00:12:48,735.010492727044
That's about it.

247
00:12:48,735.010492727044 --> 00:12:52,235.01049272704404
that's just sort of what your lifestyle
now is.

248
00:12:52,235.01049272704404 --> 00:12:55,304.01049272704404
It's not so much that this is what the
clock says, this is what the plan says,

249
00:12:55,304.01049272704404 --> 00:12:56,318.23980295227375
gotta stick to

250
00:12:56,318.23980295227375 --> 00:12:57,814.2398029522737
Yep, exactly.

251
00:12:58,119.74926655529998 --> 00:13:02,957.7265836948063
But my schedule's all over the place now
because can't get up early in the morning

252
00:13:02,957.7265836948063 --> 00:13:03,347.7265836948063
anymore.

253
00:13:03,347.7265836948063 --> 00:13:08,101.15347545733675
I've got things I have to do in the So I
can't get to the gym because I'm not going

254
00:13:08,101.15347545733675 --> 00:13:09,341.15347545733675
to bed on time.

255
00:13:09,341.15347545733675 --> 00:13:11,377.15347545733675
My schedule's all over the place.

256
00:13:11,377.15347545733675 --> 00:13:13,187.15347545733675
of yourself for the first time in a long
time.

257
00:13:13,187.15347545733675 --> 00:13:15,417.15347545733675
So it's tricky.

258
00:13:15,637.1534754573368 --> 00:13:17,887.1534754573368
You have more of them.

259
00:13:17,887.1534754573368 --> 00:13:19,165.15347545733675
You have more of them.

260
00:13:19,205.15347545733675 --> 00:13:21,545.1534754573368
Yeah, and my motivation has changed too.

261
00:13:21,545.1534754573368 --> 00:13:23,105.15347545733675
Like I don't...

262
00:13:23,165.15347545733675 --> 00:13:25,465.15347545733675
I do need to get back to it a little bit
more.

263
00:13:25,465.15347545733675 --> 00:13:28,84.15347545733675
Like I'm having a hard time...

264
00:13:28,305.15347545733675 --> 00:13:32,405.15347545733675
Like if I don't work out first thing in
the morning, I have a really hard time

265
00:13:32,405.15347545733675 --> 00:13:33,665.1534754573368
fitting in the rest of the day.

266
00:13:33,665.1534754573368 --> 00:13:39,145.15347545733675
Because I'm so used to doing me time from
five to seven, and then dealing with

267
00:13:39,145.15347545733675 --> 00:13:43,801.6515738370363
everyone I'm just driving all over the
place because I'm like split between two

268
00:13:43,801.6515738370363 --> 00:13:45,211.65157383703627
households at this point.

269
00:13:45,211.65157383703627 --> 00:13:47,101.65157383703627
And it's really tough.

270
00:13:47,101.65157383703627 --> 00:13:47,576.6515738370363
So...

271
00:13:47,576.6515738370363 --> 00:13:52,16.651573837036267
I just need to figure all that stuff out
and or you know what just take a couple

272
00:13:52,16.651573837036267 --> 00:13:54,349.65157383703627
fucking days and Be okay with it

273
00:13:54,349.65157383703627 --> 00:13:57,409.65157383703627
of bucket days to figure it out and then
from there, you'll come up with a better

274
00:13:57,409.65157383703627 --> 00:13:59,269.65157383703627
plan for the non -fuck it days.

275
00:13:59,492.31374845141545 --> 00:14:00,142.31374845141545
Alright, well fuck it.

276
00:14:00,142.31374845141545 --> 00:14:00,682.3137484514154
