Was 6 Mini-Workouts am Tag bringen würden

0:00I had a I had a roommate, his name was Greg Knuckles. He's really big in the strength space. >> [ __ ] amazing name. Is that his real name, Greg Knuckles? Yeah, Greg Knuckles, yeah. And he's he's one of the two smartest people that I've ever met from a pure processing power standpoint, like Sounds like a mafia guy. >> I mean, you know, he's you know, got a perfect SAT score when he was 14. Like very, very bright. Um but also stupid strong. Like when I met him, we were in our 20s and he was pulling 800. Like stupid strong and natural. And so, anyways, he was like, "I read this research paper. What if we had you lift six times a day, but for like 10 minutes each time?" And I was like, "Cool." And I lived at the gym, so I was like, "Sure, whatever." So, I set a timer, and every 45 minutes, I would go and do one set on three exercises, then I'd go back to work. Which side note is actually an amazing productivity hack, because like I had this nice timing uh like cadence, and I got this nice like boost for my nervous system every 45 minutes to like wake back up.

0:58And so, I did that, and that's when I I gained just a tremendous amount of weight, um but coupled that with another thing that he had done research on, which was like a pure carbohydrate diet um with no fat. And so, basically, the efficiency of fat conversion to fat that's stored is almost 100%. The efficiency of carbohydrate storage into fat is lower. Um and so, if you don't have cuz you're going to have a calorie surplus, and so, to give yourself a smaller percentage of that surplus that gets stored as fat, you would want 100% of the surplus to be carbohy- carbohydrate. And so, the idea was like I had, you know, 200 g of protein and like 800 g of carbs and basically zero fat besides the Yeah, I saw what you're eating. It looked like it'd be awesome for a day.

1:42>> It was horrible after that. >> And anybody who's like, "It didn't work." I'm like, "Just try eating that." Now, the big caveat to this is like I have what I you know, I think I have elite genetics. I think like Dr. Cashy, who's my closest friend, he's a biochemist, he's a national strongman. He's like, "You have potato chip genetics. He's like, you shouldn't give advice to people." He's like, "You can just like drink Coca-Cola and work out and like you'll have a six-pack." So, like I had that plus I was doing everything maxed out like as I possibly could. And like it was not sustainable.

2:12Like my knees were shot, my elbows felt like [ __ ] Like by the end, I was sleeping terribly cuz I was I was bordering on overtraining. Um but I put a ton of weight on and I put a ton of strength to all my main lifts. And uh from there, what I did was I dialed back the total volume, but I kept the split. Not to get into too fitness stuff, but instead of doing uh seven sets of every exercise every day, um I just dialed it down to like five. And then Well, I was reading that article while I was listening to your videos, and I was like, "Oh man, this guy carries this [ __ ] over to everything." I understand.

2:43Like it was super precise, very like, "Well, obviously I think what's interesting about you is you don't have a uh or maybe you do, but you've overcome it uh a self-limiting belief that a lot of people have." And you're like, "Well, of course this is going to work. You're going to do this, you're going to do this, you're going to do this, you're going to do this, and it's going to be hard, but that's the outcome is going to be blank." And it and and you get Here's the plan, attack. And you took that same process to business. Yeah, I could I could hear it in your voice when you talk about business and fitness, and that's why I thought it was cool. Thanks.

3:11>> [laughter] >> Real quick, if you are a business owner and you are not growing as fast as you'd like, I'd like to give you a free gift. So, my team and I put together the $100 million scaling roadmap, which is basically 200 hours of us looking over all the portfolio companies we've had and what stages of growth they went through, and more importantly, where they got stuck and how they got past it. And so, we've broken it into these 10 stages, and we made this little kind of quiz thing where if you put in your business information, it'll tell you where you're at, and the most important part for you, what to do for each of functions of the business across product, marketing, sales, customer success, recruiting, IT, human resources, and finance. And so, no matter what you're struggling with, someone else has already struggled with it and solved it. And so, I'd like to give you this thing absolutely free. You can go to acquisition.com/roadmap, plug in your business information, and if you want us to actually help you deconstruct the business and you're trying to scale, we'd love to help you out. On the thank you page, you can book a call with my team, and we will look at the business, see if we can help, and if we can, we'll invite you out to Vegas, and we'll do this in person live.
