[SPEAKER_00]: Good evening, Jokwa.

00:24.468 --> 00:32.299
[SPEAKER_00]: I recently just turned 25 in my life of almost three years and I are about to have our first baby come to this winter

00:32.802 --> 00:38.510
[SPEAKER_00]: When I found out it was going to be a boy, I was overcome with joy, but also a deep nervousness and almost shame.

00:38.971 --> 00:44.138
[SPEAKER_00]: I grew up with a father that was always in my life and was a great example, and was always in very good shape.

00:44.518 --> 00:53.511
[SPEAKER_00]: I believe that I have gotten after it when it comes to my work and pursuing my career in goals in life, but my health and fitness is currently falling short.

00:53.491 --> 01:13.499
[SPEAKER_00]: I was always in sports growing up, so training wasn't always with a goal of football in mind, but going through college and being out in my career, I've had times where I'll be in the gym and be eating clean and healthy for a few weeks or a few months and feeling really good and then I lose focus and get out and go right back to where I was.

01:14.300 --> 01:18.486
[SPEAKER_00]: What advice would you have when it comes to being able to stick to a healthy lifestyle?

01:18.466 --> 01:22.613
[SPEAKER_00]: I want to be able to give my son the same enjoyment that I had with my own fault, the father.

01:23.375 --> 01:24.176
[SPEAKER_00]: Yes, the way the work.

01:24.216 --> 01:25.679
[SPEAKER_00]: He is already on its way.

01:25.699 --> 01:25.939
[SPEAKER_01]: Oh, yeah.

01:26.340 --> 01:27.342
[SPEAKER_01]: Give my kind of dragon suit.

01:27.362 --> 01:28.504
[SPEAKER_01]: That's a little bit younger.

01:28.925 --> 01:30.467
[SPEAKER_01]: First, a little bit younger book.

01:32.050 --> 01:32.150
[SPEAKER_01]: Hi.

01:33.954 --> 01:36.458
[SPEAKER_01]: This is this situation here, bro.

01:37.822 --> 01:39.063
[SPEAKER_01]: Congratulations on your kid.

01:39.383 --> 01:47.051
[SPEAKER_01]: You know what you need to do, and here's the positive change here is you're not just doing it for yourself anymore.

01:47.291 --> 01:48.152
[SPEAKER_01]: You're doing it for your family.

01:48.172 --> 01:48.913
[SPEAKER_01]: You're doing it for your son.

01:50.754 --> 01:51.775
[SPEAKER_01]: So you know what to do?

01:52.896 --> 01:53.377
[SPEAKER_01]: You know what to do.

01:53.637 --> 01:54.238
[SPEAKER_01]: You got to get up early.

01:54.378 --> 01:54.898
[SPEAKER_01]: You got to train.

01:55.098 --> 01:55.599
[SPEAKER_01]: You got to lift.

01:55.639 --> 01:56.260
[SPEAKER_01]: You got to run.

01:56.280 --> 01:56.880
[SPEAKER_01]: You got to sprint.

01:56.900 --> 01:57.781
[SPEAKER_01]: You got to do your job.

01:58.041 --> 01:58.642
[SPEAKER_01]: You got to get after.

01:58.682 --> 01:59.403
[SPEAKER_01]: You got to eat clean.

01:59.563 --> 02:07.170
[SPEAKER_01]: You got to get the trash junk donuts, Doritos, Cheetos out of your freaking house.

02:08.939 --> 02:10.101
[SPEAKER_01]: And you got to be a good example.

02:11.483 --> 02:18.073
[SPEAKER_01]: And as far as being focused, you used to look in the mirror and say, geez, I'm letting myself down.

02:18.393 --> 02:26.746
[SPEAKER_01]: Now go look at your son in the eyes and remember that he is going to mimic you in life.

02:28.649 --> 02:37.663
[SPEAKER_01]: And if you are fat and out of shape and pathetic, he's going to grow up being fat, out of shape and pathetic.

02:39.500 --> 02:40.441
[SPEAKER_01]: He's gonna emulate that.

02:42.584 --> 02:44.086
[SPEAKER_01]: So, you know what to do.

02:45.407 --> 02:46.008
[SPEAKER_01]: You know what to do.

02:47.210 --> 02:48.311
[SPEAKER_01]: Get on the pass, stay on the path.

02:49.753 --> 02:51.355
[SPEAKER_01]: That's what we're doing.

02:51.375 --> 02:58.303
[SPEAKER_00]: You know how that, there's like a bias or whatever when you can see something in someone else, like all their mistakes and flaws, you know?

02:58.724 --> 03:00.967
[SPEAKER_00]: But it's hard to see it with yourself or whatever.

03:01.427 --> 03:09.237
[SPEAKER_00]: You can do that where if you just keep your mindset, like, okay, anything I want for my kid, like basically I have to do it.

03:09.217 --> 03:14.589
[SPEAKER_00]: Because you know the whole you know some parents will be like do as I say not as I do.

03:14.849 --> 03:28.018
[SPEAKER_00]: Oh, yeah Whereas like brother that's almost impossible by the way like I can think of a lot of things that my dad said to do or not to do or whatever and it's just one in one year out the other but

03:27.998 --> 03:37.371
[SPEAKER_00]: at the same time, I can, I can point to a bunch of different things that my dad has done that I'm like, oh, like you think from a logical standpoint, I wouldn't do that.

03:37.571 --> 03:41.357
[SPEAKER_00]: You know, if I had even like whatever level, level, level headed, right?

03:41.377 --> 03:42.699
[SPEAKER_00]: I'll be like, I just, I won't do that part.

03:43.279 --> 03:46.043
[SPEAKER_00]: But then it's like subconsciously or something.

03:46.103 --> 03:49.148
[SPEAKER_00]: It kind of like makes that stuff if it's bad.

03:49.168 --> 03:51.431
[SPEAKER_00]: It kind of seems like normal, so it might not be that bad.

03:51.471 --> 03:54.495
[SPEAKER_00]: So yeah, I'll do it, you know, I'll let it happen, you know, kind of a thing.

03:54.475 --> 04:02.648
[SPEAKER_00]: So it's like, yeah, you're gonna, you know, I want my kid, you know, I'm like, boy, you know, I want him to be strong Disciplined patient, you know, all this stuff or whatever.

04:02.688 --> 04:04.030
[SPEAKER_00]: You gotta be all those things.

04:04.731 --> 04:05.853
[SPEAKER_00]: You gotta get on it.

04:05.993 --> 04:08.256
[SPEAKER_00]: And that's the way I see it.

04:08.517 --> 04:09.919
[SPEAKER_00]: And, you know, you know, me, I don't know.

04:10.360 --> 04:12.964
[SPEAKER_00]: But this is really what it seems like.

04:12.984 --> 04:15.167
[SPEAKER_00]: There's kind of no other way.

04:15.147 --> 04:22.093
[SPEAKER_00]: like you can't just be like hey I want my son to be this and I'm not but me I'm not gonna be that at all I'm just gonna tell him what to do.

04:22.434 --> 04:45.154
[SPEAKER_01]: Pride doesn't work you know so if you can make that reflection in your mind and that's the new mindset but I don't think I think for more yeah not to mention your kid needs you to be able to feed him that means you got to have a job that means you got to be healthy you got to be able to rescue him if there's a fire you got to be able to defend him if somebody attacks him or someone comes into your house or someone gets rogue rage and approaches your cards like

04:45.134 --> 04:53.058
[SPEAKER_01]: So, that is a little excerpt of what we are doing on the Jocco Underground podcast.
