00:00hey welcome back back back back back back what's up everybody welcome back to the one body podcast
00:09and i am toya welcome back to another episode today we are going to talk about exercises that
00:18we don't like listen hold on we're going to be honest with y'all right now we are manufacturing
00:24some energy right now because we both uh you know all three of us did not sleep well last night so
00:31jakai is going through growth spurt teething um sleep regression maybe just found out that there's
00:37a 12 month sleep regression so it's a sleep regression every month yeah so we're going
00:43through it but you know what we're going to try to um you know we're going to manufacture some
00:47energy today yeah um and have some fun today so i appreciate you for joining us again we're in our
00:52sweatsuits because we just had to keep you comfortable casual yeah i mean so um let's get
00:57into it so real quick little housekeeping if you don't know now you know we have a juicing toy app
01:02go get it you know what's on it we say it after every video uh it's very beneficial and if you're
01:07on it utilize that one-on-one messaging feature that's our favorite part as well as the community
01:12feed um just go get it throwing that out there yes go get it um and then our juicing toy emerge
01:18available at onebodyla.com backslash shop um partnered with lululemon so you know the quality
01:25you're getting self-explanatory all right so by today's podcast you're probably wondering what we
01:31got up our sleeve today and today we're gonna have a little fun today uh obviously you know we'd like
01:36to give you some good information but uh we want to uh just kind of give you uh our insight on things
01:44that we don't like i was gonna say hate but hate is a strong word yeah and when we say we don't like
01:50i also want to start this podcast off by saying all of these are great exercises and 90 percent of
01:56them we still do when we say we don't like it's more because at least you know every day in some
02:03way whether it's on youtube or within the app someone's like i don't like lunges what can i do
02:07instead i don't like push-ups what can i do instead so just to let you know that we all have
02:12exercises that we don't enjoy exercises that we see them on our program we're like i don't want to
02:18it takes a little bit more energy to get through them so just to let you know that even as trainers
02:24and we've been doing this for decades um we also have things that we also don't enjoy and i think
02:30one of the most common misconceptions when it comes to trainers or just the fitness industry is that
02:35we wake up every day ready and excited and just like we can't wait to do every exercise in our
02:42program but that's not the case too so we want to go through today some things that we don't enjoy
02:48um why we don't enjoy them and whether or not we still put them in our program and maybe it'll help
02:53you just feel a little less alone when you get to those exercises that you're like why do i have to
02:58do this all right so here we go top five exercises that we do not like and we're going to do these
03:04individually so you want to okay so we have five exercises each that we don't like um and these
03:11are in order of mine are in order least so five is the least versus one being the most okay yeah so
03:17i'll go first um my fifth most disliked exercise has got to be planks um to me planks they are a great
03:27core exercise but it's just boring like i i think to me like i'd rather do like a plank up down or like
03:36plank jack or a knee tuck or something like that i just i don't know it's it's a great exercise and
03:43if it's in my program i'll do it but yeah i'm not gonna lie to you i don't put it in my own program
03:49and like the only time i do it is if someone else has programmed it for me um i'll put variations of a
03:54plank but yeah i just you just don't like i just don't side planks i love i'll do side planks all
04:00day but a regular plank is just like you're discriminating against regular planks yeah yeah
04:06okay high or forearms wow okay uh number five for me pull-ups and let me preface this by saying it's
04:15not because i can't do pull-ups i'm pretty good at pull-ups but pull-ups is one of those exercises
04:19that just don't get easier you know what i mean and pull-ups is also an exercise if you take like
04:25two weeks off from doing them you i just feel like i lose it so quickly and it's like one of those
04:30exercises you just have to like continue to do to continue to be great at so for that reason
04:37pull-ups is my number five and when i had my achilles surgery like i was obviously doing a lot of upper
04:44body and i couldn't work out for what four weeks yeah since i got my surgery so when i got back to
04:50the pull-up bar i didn't get to be even do pull-ups for six weeks or so after my surgery and i could only
04:56do like five which is heartbreaking for me because i can i could knock out some pull-ups so um that's why
05:04i really don't like pull-ups sometimes i love the exercise but i hate that you just have to be very
05:09persistent with them and i'm sure a lot of people can relate to that for that specific exercise um
05:16but i love pull-ups for that reason so that just shows you how everyone can be different like i love
05:21that challenge um of if i'm like okay i did seven last week i'm gonna try to hit eight if i don't hit
05:27eight i'm i'm motivated you know but it just shows how everyone can be different and then also another
05:33reason it's not the particular exercise but also i don't have access to a pull-up bar anywhere i go you
05:39know what i mean so like i was like literally looking around my apartment to see where i can
05:43hang one up just so you mean you don't have access everywhere everywhere yeah like yeah you have to go
05:50to the gym correct like i can do some dumbbell work here i can even get a barbell and do it at home but
05:55i just don't have access to a place where i can to work on them as consistently consistently so i have
06:00to go to the gym to be able to do pull-ups so that's it's not the exercise but it's just like i have
06:05to be uh the work that it takes to get it's tough all right number four for me oh okay all right
06:12barbell deadlifts i have never enjoyed barbell deadlifts i will do them i've even facetimed
06:20julius while i've been at the gym just so he can watch me to make me do them no lie um and i i love
06:27deadlifts i'll i'll do so many different variations but i prefer a hack a hack squat sorry a trap bar or a
06:35hex bar deadlift over a barbell deadlift i just i don't know i just get up to the bar and it's
06:42almost like this psychological i freeze i i look here i think saying this out loud i think i realized
06:50one of the reasons why because i know i could do more weight but because i freeze i don't get
06:56confident in my form so then i have to go down on the weight and then it makes me look weak and i'm not
07:00weak um but no i think it's just that like i get up to the bar and i'm like uh i don't feel
07:06confident which that's an exercise you want to be confident going into especially if you're going up
07:12on weight um but barbell deadlifts i'm not gonna lie to you can't remember the last time i did a
07:17barbell deadlift but try actually when i was like five or six months postpartum because i went very
07:23light and just focused on the form i think that's what you need to do is just like and i do so then when
07:27it's time to go up on weight i'm like there's a hex bar over there so that's the thing i'll go
07:33really light focus on the form get the confidence and then once it's time to start going up on weight
07:37i'm like i'll just do the other one or i'll do like double kettlebell or suitcase or whatever i will do
07:43deadlifts at least twice a week just not with the barbell for sure and it's crazy and again we're two
07:50different people that might be my favorite exercise is a barbell deadlift because that's when i feel the
07:55strongest like that's the one lift where the most weight is on the bar where i can lift and honestly
08:00more than ever with having a baby i do a deadlift like 400 times a day picking up toys exactly off
08:07the floor so um honestly deadlifts are my favorite you know deadlifts are one of my favorites barbell
08:14deadlifts let's be specific but i will say this and everyone can hold me accountable they are in my
08:20next phase of my program purposely i took the hex bar out and i put in the barbell so just shows you
08:26that like you know we dislike these exercises but we do them because we know that they're good for us
08:30and make us better all right that's what that was number four for you that was number four all right
08:34number four i do not like barbell front squats specifically barbell front squats front squats are
08:41not my favorite period but barbell front squats i just i don't like and the reason i do not like
08:49the reason i i don't really prefer for it's a great exercise let me we gotta say this before
08:59every single one of these i don't want y'all to think oh juice don't like it i'm not so i don't
09:03want to do it yeah it's a great it's a very it's a fantastic exercise um one reason i don't like
09:09barbell front squats we did them a lot in college and we loaded them up and i just it requires more
09:16than just your lower body it requires your shoulders it requires your core it requires everything to be
09:21on and if you're not just like hyper aware of everything and one thing breaks down it just it's
09:27very it's a very hard movement to do especially when you're going super heavy um it is something
09:31that i do want to get back into i run away from it every time i think about wanting to do it
09:38um but front squats is a very um key component of doing a very like olympic style lift so if you're
09:44doing like a hand clean power cleans um those are just that's just like a uh like a prerequisite that
09:50you just have to know how to do so yeah and it requires a lot of like wrist mobility shoulder mobility
09:55so um it's a very complex exercise um which is why um i don't prefer it sometimes but um it just
10:04requires much more than my lower body so i'd rather i'd much rather throw a bar on my back
10:09and lift you know 250 pounds than and do it put 95 on a front squat hey that's fair so barbell front
10:18squats that's my number four right um my number three if i could take this back it would have been
10:24my number four because i would rather do these than barbell deadlifts so those should be flipped
10:30but keeping in order number three is
10:33now i'm deciding between these two which one would i rather do yeah okay my number three is
10:43bulgarian split squats but i do want to say i would rather do split squats than deadlifts so those should
10:49be flipped however split squats it's one of those that i do them every week it's in my program every
10:55week um because they are for my specific goals building my glutes i want to build my legs i want
11:00strong legs and it's a great exercise for that um it also makes you engage your core more it takes a
11:07lot of stability and it just makes me work on those areas that i'm weaker in um but i dislike them because
11:15they burn so bad so quickly like it's one of those like i i don't know it's just like one of those
11:23like five reps six reps eight reps ten reps it doesn't matter it's going to yes it does not
11:30matter yes and one of those like start it was like one of those exercises that when i started off
11:35working out postpartum again i remember the pt saying like you know before you get into a lot of
11:40like bulgarians and like things like that with weight start body weight and do blah blah blah you
11:45know the routine and i was like okay yeah body weight no problem i was sore the next day and it's like
11:51why because it's just like one of those exercises like why is this so taxing and difficult but in
11:58that same breath that tells me like all right like i'm working i'm you know so i do them every single
12:05week in some way um but they never get easier it's like i can go up on weight thinking like all right
12:11i'm stronger i got this and it hurts just as much as when i did it body weight so yeah that's that's my
12:16number three that's a good one that's what again i'm the opposite i love bulgarian split squats like
12:22i just they're in all my any program that i do it's in all my programs so i will preface that with
12:29but i don't look forward to it yeah i like them okay so okay cool okay um number three for me running
12:36wow preface i like running i like running fast i'm much more of a sprinter so distance running
12:45distance running okay like that yeah i would just say sprint but i love sprinting i do not like
12:51distance running distance running uh just because whenever you know and and people who love the
12:58sprint could probably also agree like whenever you get so used to like doing everything uh with speed
13:05explosiveness yeah the moment you start adding like distance or miles to something i feel like
13:11i'm not getting to my destination fast or setting a pace exactly or setting a pace so for example when
13:17i was doing some marathon training um it my program told me to go at a 9 40 pace so i i'm the type of
13:26person too i don't know if there are people like me maybe i'm weird but i don't like to like stare at
13:30my watch like when i'm working out okay because i only say no that's a good thing i only say that
13:37because sometimes like when you look at your watch constantly especially if you have like apple watch
13:41is showing your heart weight heart weight high weight uh heart rate um like imagine you're doing
13:48an exercise especially like a HIIT workout and then you see your heart rate's 160 you might like
13:52slow down slow down a little bit whereas if you're not paying attention to it you might push yourself a
13:56lot more so sometimes i don't really like to just check my watch too much and it dictates what you're
14:01exactly so but when i run i'm like ain't no way i only been running for 45 seconds so is it because
14:09you looking at your watch makes you feel like more time should have been gone by so it kind of like
14:14makes it feel like it's lagging for sure it's like me and yoga classes i understand it's a game so
14:19sometimes when i go on runs i like try to go as long as possible um without looking at my watch
14:26and i remember though like the first couple of weeks of running i swear it was like 10 minutes
14:32it said four minutes and 20 seconds i was like you have there's no way i'm only like slow down and
14:37stop and like like it had to pause no i'm only laughing because yesterday when i ran i said i'm
14:43not gonna look at my watch until this song is over and the song don't get me started like if the song
14:48is like two and a half minutes or three minutes and then i look down and i'm like okay cool it was
14:52actually four minutes like so i i understand so that is my also coping mechanism when it comes
14:58to running i'm like i have a playlist and they're the top three songs i know for a fact are eight
15:04minutes long which in that eight minute period i should be at or near a mile so but then the
15:10problem with that is i'm like man this song is slow
15:12no that actually i i do that too yeah so basically my runs especially when i started to do long runs
15:24it turned into like podcasts yeah because it kind of takes my mind away from the time and i'm more so
15:30just engaged in whatever conversation i'm listening to so um yeah just running i look and i will say this
15:37i have a love hate relationship with running like i'm about to start a brand new running program
15:42just to get back into it because it's one of those things where i hate it but i want to love it
15:48you know what i mean like it's something that i want to really get good at it's something i used to
15:53i used to run a lot i literally used to run with a weight vest on all the time um so i just want to
15:59get back into it um just to prove myself prove that i can do it i would run every day if i could i love
16:05it so we are we are different yeah all right um let's see so we're on number two now yeah which
16:13one of these would i rather do okay easy walking or front lunges specific because reverse lunges i'll
16:21do all day in my sleep front lunges or walking lunges for what no not for what i am just just do a
16:31reverse you know why why are reverse lunges more preferable because for me one it tailors or
16:41focuses more on the glutes i feel like it's a little bit more stable especially when it comes
16:46to a walking lunge that's way unstable um and i just feel like i enjoy it more i can tell you why
16:58you enjoy reverse why do i enjoy reverse because with a reverse lunge and you know what i'm just
17:04gonna say number two lunges for youtube all right so let's discuss let's talk about this together
17:09because lunges are but and that's the title of this podcast so what is yours front lunges or reverse
17:14lunges or all lunges uh technically if i had to choose the the worst is walking lunges um just i think
17:22front lunges are worse than walking lunges i mean walking lunges is a front i know but i feel like
17:27with i know but with just like a stationary front lunge i feel like i'm like oh but with the
17:33walking lunge it's like at least you're i don't know it's a little more fun and i feel like it's
17:39okay you know what i compare it to i know i know what i compare it to cross country loved cross
17:44country okay for the distance because you're looking at so many different things it's three miles of just
17:50like scenery right yeah but then when it came time for track season you want me to run two miles
17:56absolutely not in a circle no so people are always like why do you sprint in during track season but
18:02you do cross country it's three miles during track it's only two because you're running in a circle
18:07but if in cross country it's like time goes by faster because you have more scenery so that's fair
18:13even though walking lunges is probably the same scenery as the front lunge i feel like you're it's like
18:18a little bit different yeah i mean like you mentioned before lunges especially walking lunges or front
18:24lunges they just don't get easier no it doesn't matter if you're doing body weight you're loading
18:29it up reps barbell dumbbell kettlebell it doesn't matter like they just don't get easy you're gonna
18:35feel i feel like it's one of those exercises like if i do push-ups like i can knock out some push-ups
18:40i don't feel like push-up like the burn until i'm not even a burn i just don't even feel a push-up
18:45until i get to like 20 until i get some reps in right lunges i'm five reps you know like bro
18:50no matter what there's no way yeah i mean so a lot of y'all watching this i mean it's the title
18:55of this podcast uh that's the most common that's the most common what can i do instead of lunges
18:59yeah we'll get into that in a little bit but um it's a exercise we both don't like but i let me go
19:05back to why you probably prefer reverse lunges over front lunges which this is why we sometimes put them
19:11in our workouts reverse lunges sometimes i'll have front lunges written and i'll switch it to reverse
19:16lunges just because of the flow of the workout because sometimes if it's like lower body heavy
19:21and then we're going right into some some front lunges it's like okay like the average person
19:26might hate us for this one so i'll switch it to reverse lunges just to make it a little bit easier
19:29but a front lunge versus a reverse lunge a front lunge you have to step into it and push off that front
19:36leg right a reverse lunge you get a little bit of assistance from that back leg right because you can
19:42push off that back leg a little bit you're not technically supposed to push off too much
19:48that gives you a little bit it gives you a little bit of a boost and support and stability you know
19:53what i mean so sometimes i'd like to include reverse lunges just because it's a little bit easier to get
19:58in and out of um but when i'm trying to be mean you know i'm gonna throw some front lunges i might
20:03even listen front lunge i'll do walking lunges like which essentially like you said it's it's a front
20:09lunge just moving um so i'll i'll do them it's just like if i have the option i will take a reverse
20:16lunge all day i usually i used to do walking lunges it's like a finisher yes i used to do 100
20:23walking lunges as a finisher body weight or in college or i used to do um like walking lunges
20:29around the track like yeah i'll do 400 meters of walking lunges which is stupid don't ever do that
20:34we used to do uh lunge the straights jog the curve lunge the straight jog the curve for four laps
20:42okay that's fair i like that yeah so okay okay so we can all agree in the comments here on youtube
20:48lunges might be the least favorite exercise of most people but we will say it is a great
20:53you gotta do functional you gotta do exercise you gotta do but the one thing that i would rather
20:59do lunges than this a spin class or anything on a stationary bike if you ask me to do a spin class
21:12i would rather go do front lunges for an hour than spin class for an hour
21:20yeah i just feel like i don't know spin class or stationary bike period what about a salt bike no
21:30okay but i will do an assault bike over a spin class i will do that obviously not the same amount
21:36of time but man it's just something about like i you know it's me it's definitely me because it's
21:43something like it's not comfortable something in my adductor once i every time i try to do the spin
21:48bike after a few minutes i get this like lock in my adductors and it's just not comfortable
21:54um and i'm like why am i doing this i could be doing other cardio that i enjoy i love to run i
21:59love the stairmaster i love sprinting i love an incline walk like so i'm like why do why am i doing
22:05this and then for me a lot of people have you done it when's the last time you've done a spin class
22:10i've never taken like a studio spin class i've done spin classes of like no i've done spin classes
22:18of like um similar to peloton before it wasn't peloton because this was like when i was competing
22:23back in the day so it was like um virtual spin class essentially so yeah so it wasn't like uh an
22:30in-studio spin class but when i here's the thing with me what a lot of people don't know is classes
22:37in general this is again like a psychological thing for me and goes back to you looking at your
22:42watch i get anxiety in classes because i feel like almost trapped i feel like and like i've said this
22:49it's something mental i don't know i maybe if you're a psychologist watching maybe you have some like tips
22:54but it is something where i look at the time and i'm like how much longer until this class is over
22:59but it's specifically with like things like like yoga or um because like bunda like that bunda is a
23:08stair master and strength class i don't ever look at my watch it goes by so fast for me so it's certain
23:13classes where i'm like i look at the time of the class and i'm like oh it's an hour class like i don't
23:19i can't be in that room for an hour i get like anxiety and like so spin classes for example i've never
23:24done it because i know that i don't enjoy the spin bike and so then you throw a class on top of that
23:30i would i would have a probably an anxiety attack in the class like i'm not even being dramatic it's
23:35just like mentally for me and psychologically it it just would not work um but i will say once i did
23:41those classes like the virtual and realized i didn't like it i would try to do spin bike intervals
23:46on my own and didn't like that either and so it's just one of those things i don't enjoy
23:51that but how many people watching this probably do not like running and you're like put me on a
23:56spin bike any day over running right it's just like you have your things that you enjoy and spinning is
24:01not one of those for me okay that's fair and i've always known this about her yeah this might be the
24:07first time i've heard the full explanation of why though yeah i don't that's funny i will do like
24:11what maybe like five or ten minute assault bike type of like interval things um but he knows too
24:17like he's like you need to do some more assault bike and i'm like i did three minutes today
24:21all right number one and you've already mentioned this exercise my number one is planks
24:28that's your number one that's my number one so you would rather do pull-ups and planks oh 100
24:34you would rather i would too but you would rather do i would rather run do lunges pull-ups
24:41in front squats before i do planks okay and i'll tell you why planks i have ptsd okay back to if a
24:53psychologist is watching this we might need your help from 2011 to 2015 you know planks were like
25:00they were almost like punishment when it came to like football workouts like if you were
25:06we had them like at the end of a workout we would just have to hold a plank and if you dropped you
25:12had to go run type stuff like it was just it i just had a bad relationship with planks from the jump
25:19and then ever since then i just i don't prefer it and it is a great exercise especially for people who
25:26just have a weak core it's just a great um what's the word i'm looking for this is a good foundational
25:33exercise just to see where people's core is um so when we were trainers uh we would take people
25:38through assessments and a plank is just a foundational exercise to just see how strong
25:43someone's core is so ideally i believe everyone should be able to hold a plank for a minute right
25:51like if you can't hold a plank for a minute that's something that you need to practice especially if you
25:55want to get into more challenging core exercises right so as a trainer i i like programming it because
26:02it's just a good um benchmark to see where someone's foundations exactly it's a good benchmark to see
26:08what someone's core is but for myself i can do a plank all day i just have ptsd from the past of
26:16doing planks but in the same breath i have done things like planks before like for example when i was
26:23working for this particular company i won't say the name of the company um they had all the employees
26:28do a plank contest and at that point i thought about my days back in football doing the plants i
26:35was like i'm going to win this and it was a hundred dollar gift card uh i'm not gonna say because it's
26:41just gonna give it away but it was a hundred dollar gift because at the time i was competitive i'm like
26:44oh i'm winning this so i think i ended up holding the plank for like seven eight minutes i could have
26:50went longer but i saw the last person drop i was like all right there's no point yeah i'm done here
26:53um but i remember after doing that plank like i i was holding a cramp for like a minute like it was
27:03i just had i have the same cramp like in this right lower abdomen i don't know what it is i've been
27:08experiencing this for the longest time but like whenever my core is under uh stress for a while i
27:15just get this like same little cramp um but i was so competitive my brain just turned it off so
27:21for me elbow planks specifically i i like you i enjoy side planks i have no problem with side
27:28planks but just a regular plank man it's just boring i gotta just i feel that i don't like it
27:34i don't like it there's so many more exercises there that i don't like that i would rather do
27:41yeah yeah than a plank um but i do have an honorable mention oh no our son is moving by the way that's
27:48what i'm looking at on my phone okay we can grab him if we need to but i have an honorable mention
27:52russian twist yeah and it's not functional so it's not really functional um it's one of those like
27:59that position is for you yeah yeah you're trying to get the obliques and stuff but again i get this
28:06same i don't know what it is you get that in v-sits period i don't know like it doesn't matter if it's
28:10a knee tuck i've been in the best shape of my life and when i do russian twist sometimes like
28:17i just get this cramp i don't know i don't know what it is so that's an honorable mention okay but
28:21real quick i would like to say what are three off the top of the dome what are three your favorite
28:26exercise running i love i love um hip thrust hip thrust because it it's one of those i love
28:33challenging myself to go heavier and heavier okay um i i try to do that with every exercise but that one
28:38i just feel really strong once i go up um and what else do i and i love pull-ups and pull-ups for
28:45me again same reason as hip thrust it's like a challenge and i just think it's like amazing when
28:51people can just rep out like pull-ups like nothing and so that's kind of what i want to do i want to
28:57be able to just like rep out 20 pull-ups like no big deal so um yeah i love to run i love pull-ups
29:03and i love hip thrust with the running i will say i love sprinting i love running i love
29:07all types of running um for me it's the the mental of just like when it's a distance run it's like
29:14just going out listening to music i'm not trying to be competitive in it i just it's like a mental
29:19break for me okay so i like that so i got a couple competitive and one of like just chill uh my top
29:25three i already mentioned barbell deadlifts i do those all day i do those i think i've done those every
29:30week of the year yeah that i've been at the gym uh barbell deadlifts um my next favorite i would
29:38probably say box jumps i do love a good box job i love jumping i'm just love jumping high i was a
29:46high jump champ seventh and eighth grade talk to him talk to him seventh and eighth grade let's go
29:52before everybody hit that growth spur exactly and then i just stopped and realized all these long
29:58jumpers are six one jumping six nine that's funny but i was a long jump champ i was the triple jump
30:05champ and i was also uh the high jump bunny i had the bunnies um so i'm a good i love box jumps and then
30:13the last exercise i would probably say um i'd probably say pull-ups pull-ups and push-ups i just love
30:19yeah i was a good one too i was super big on calisthenics a long time ago i was just like
30:25i love like before i went i was that high school kid who would do 200 push-ups sit-ups before bed yeah
30:31exactly uh before bed just to kind of you know build some muscle build some strength so um yeah that just
30:37kind of yeah today was just kind of give you some insight on things that we don't enjoy but we want
30:45you to understand that we don't enjoy it uh we don't enjoy it because we think it's a terrible
30:51exercise right not great for you we don't enjoy it because it's something it's either something that
30:55we're not good at something that just we have ptsd or trauma from it or you know what i mean it's just
31:02it can be many reasons why you don't enjoy and that's what we kind of want to get at y'all have
31:06y'all's own reasons for not enjoying certain exercises and there are some things that like
31:11again like the bulgarian split squats i don't enjoy them but they're in my program every single
31:16week and so like lunges as well that's like he said it's the title of this episode that's probably
31:21the most commented on one but it's a functional exercise it's so good for you and if you don't
31:29like it just because it's painful or similar to me with the bulgarian split squats where you're
31:33just like oh this sucks it's one of those things that it's like it's good for you so it's good to
31:39incorporate it to challenge you as well if we only put in things that we enjoyed we might be missing
31:45out on one just things that are helping us to progress and grow but i think having a little
31:50bit of a challenge within your program whatever your goal is is good for you it just kind of keeps
31:55you pushing and striving for more and getting better um with that being said he also asked what
32:01are three things you love and all the three things i mentioned are things i do every single week
32:06sometimes two or three times a week um so with that being said it's also very important to
32:11incorporate things that you do enjoy because that also keeps you wanting to go back and keeps your
32:17fire burning um and i had a client that's spun spun span not spun definitely not span spun she did a
32:27spin class um she did peloton every single day and did not like strength training and it was one of
32:34those where i looked at her and i was like girl what like because i'm the complete opposite i will
32:39strength train every day if i can't you know and so we had to find a happy medium for her where we
32:44slowly incorporated two or three days of strength training but also allowed her to keep that spinning
32:49um and so just finding ways to incorporate things that you enjoy but also incorporate the things that
32:54you don't enjoy just to give you that balance of pushing yourself but also keeping you happy and
33:00looking forward to your workout for sure and i will say if there's a particular exercise that you
33:05don't enjoy because you're not good at continue to do it yeah do it do it do it because at some point
33:11you'll learn to love it like there are exercises that i used to hate that i enjoy now just simply
33:17because i got better at it um and i worked on and i worked on it and now it's something i enjoy
33:21that's the same thing with running i have a love hate relationship with running i hated it
33:26at one point like i just if somebody said go on a run i'm like bro stop like don't yeah don't ask me
33:30to do that ever again um but it got to a point where i you know i said you know what i'm let me
33:34try running and now i love it it still hurts so difficult it's still a mental battle for me
33:42but i've gotten better at it to the point where i i want to get better i want to one day run a
33:48marathon half marathon you know what i mean so that's like one of my bucket list goals so again i would
33:53always um even the the workouts that we program for on youtube i mean there are exercise we just
34:00mentioned there are plenty of exercises that we don't like that we put in these workouts that would
34:04be irresponsible of us to not put these exercises just because we don't like we don't like it because
34:10just because we don't like it doesn't mean you don't enjoy it right and or just because we don't
34:14or you don't like something doesn't mean that it's not good for you functional helpful to your
34:19goals or progress too correct so we try to make all of our workouts well rounded uh to where uh you
34:25know you got some stuff in there that you like you got some stuff honestly that you dislike but the
34:29whole point of it is to create balance to where you're enjoying the workout you're not like struggling
34:34through it but it's also um putting some exercises in there that's kind of forcing you to get better at
34:39so um that's kind of what we want to get at with this podcast today um but i will kind of leave you
