  44. 1:27move like that is just incredible I mean
  45. 1:29that's just just made me feel so
  46. 1:31incredible and I just want people to
  47. 1:33understand that you know the effort you
  48. 1:35put into your bodybuilding and your
  49. 1:37physique you need to put that same
  50. 1:39effort into outside activities and I've
  51. 1:41always said to people if you spent as
  52. 1:44much time building a business as you did
  53. 1:48getting ready for a bodybuilding contest
  54. 1:50you would probably have an incredibly
  55. 1:52successful business and it would be a
  56. 1:54life-changing event and you know the
  57. 1:56thing is is that people will spend money
  58. 1:59and time energy you know spinning
  59. 2:01getting ready for bodybuilding contest
  60. 2:02after bodybuilding contest after
  61. 2:04bodybuilding contest for 10 15 20 years
  62. 2:07and never get anything out of it you
  63. 2:09know and I know it's a a sport you love
  64. 2:11and I know it's something that you know
  65. 2:12we love and we do it for fun and we do
  66. 2:14it because it's our enjoyment but you
  67. 2:15know the thing is you got to really sit
  68. 2:17back and and understand that you know
  69. 2:19life's short you got to do all you can
  70. 2:21while you can and when you're 40 50
  71. 2:22years old you know you can't always go
  72. 2:24out and build a business and become
  73. 2:26successful you know you got to do it
  74. 2:27when you're young that's the most
  75. 2:28important time so I just like to
  76. 2:30motivate people inspire people to think
  77. 2:32about these other things in life you
  78. 2:34know and put the time and energy into
  79. 2:36doing these other things you know
  80. 2:37bodybuilding is a 24hour a day job you
  81. 2:40got to cook your meals you got to eat
  82. 2:42your meals you got to go to the gym you
  83. 2:44got to do cardio you know it's 24 hours
  84. 2:46a day that you're putting into this when
  85. 2:47you get ready for a show you put so much
  86. 2:50into that contest into that $5 Trophy
  87. 2:53and I'm not knocking it cuz I did it and
  88. 2:55I'm just saying that that's great but
  89. 2:56you got to understand there's other
  90. 2:58things you know put that effort towards
  91. 3:00other things also and be successful you
  92. 3:03know and it's very very important to be
  93. 3:05successful in life you know when we
  94. 3:07retire you know we want to not have to
  95. 3:09work we don't be working in our 60s we
  96. 3:11want to be you know well off retired and
  97. 3:13living a good life so you got to think
