we have quite the checkered past when it comes to exercising more this episode is brought to you by small makers of amazing musical applications for the iPhone and iPad including the ocarina there’s a recent phenomenon that is exploding around the country link possibly the world ok uber exercising and there’s an article about people in New York City of all places that’s where they make pace picante sauce and they exercise with the dude named uber know it’s not a stupid name for a person yeah it is people who actually it’s not they want to think about it uber McLaughlin that’s moving for my next kid is people who exercise a lot and there are these people who exercise two to three times a day and in you know in the midst of balancing family and work life we’re talking about people who have families people who have jobs and they exercise to to to try to go and workout two to three times a day like these little exercise boutiques where they’re paying crazy high membership fees to go these really nice gyms they’re intentionally addicted to exercise and hmm that got me to thinking about your past as a exerciser and my past and our present really yeah we spent a lot of time to time together so I know about your exercise habits or lack thereof and I know of yours so I kind of know where you’re going with this yeah and we also talked about it before we start rolling I loved what we were going to talk about really yeah I got AB in fact that we’re not addicted to exercising actually it’s quite the opposite I think we’re I think I can safely say we are addicted to not exercising yes I’m really hooked on that I’m pretty sedentary but let’s you know let’s take you guys on the journey come with us on a journey into the past up until present time and our experiences with exercise now um what really I’m thinking about working out one of my first experiences with working out was a summer where I didn’t have a summer job I remember we would we would meet on our bikes in the middle of in the middle of the town like we talked about before but you said hey there’s a bench that you can do weightlifting like it’s you sit down and you bench press yeah I wasn’t even I didn’t even know what that was really yeah well cuz what this is like sixth grader like it’s a bench we’re gonna go sit and talk what are you talking about seventh grade I think was where we were and it was a bench in the law school where your dad had his occupation yeah Tom Lanier had one of the other professors there had basically put a bench in some weights in a little closet in the men’s bathroom so you would you would go up the elevator you go in the men’s restroom there’s a pretty nice restroom because it was newly constructed yeah and I wouldn’t say it was a secret room but it was a room on the other side of the bathroom it’s like well is that the really private toilet if you if you really want to have privacy in the doors locked we had but we had a key and we would go in there and when there wasn’t a toilet and it was just a bench and a bench presence and weights and so we would bench and and so I think about the perspective of a person just coming in there to drop a deuce or just to use the urinal here’s a guy a law student coming in there yeah he goes to use the bathroom and then under this secret door in the corner of the bathroom he hears two teenagers going oh no and that’s not actually the sound we were made because what we would do is that’s the same way you make very quickly we realized that the most hilarious thing on earth was watching your friend try to benchpress weight so you know there first of all there for their head is upside down you know you like this and I can’t do it I’m almost exercising right now don’t exercise but when you’re spotting somebody you look down in their faces upside down hey that’s funny up look at your face upside down it’s funny and then I see me go of course the guy in the stall out in the stall the law student is thinking some guy is really having a tough time in there get that man some Metamucil he’s gonna have hemorrhoids and we thought it was so funny that I would start laughing at you and then you as you’re straining would start laughing and all the air would escape from your lung than you realize and then I could yeah I couldn’t lift it but you would be freaking out and laughing so much that you lost all your strength yeah so it would be two idiots sitting there I would have like 135 you know like a wagon wheel on each side yeah and it would be stuck on me and we would look be having a laugh attack and the first bite was dangerous I remember we mastered the technique because we could not stop laughing of boom it would hit and then you do this and you’d roll the weight off of this side boom boom and then you roll the weight off the other side which you know that’s working out people well but you know the progression I guess is the way I see it is when you’re in high school and then in college and then a little bit after college and you’re a guy a lot of times you’re like I gotta work out because I got to get more muscles because muscles are cool buffness and I got to look buff little ladies will likely I gotta look good and so I don’t want to get big I just want to get cut and yet right you know I’m not trying to get big I’m just trying to get cut and so it’s all about the muscles you know and getting the muscles as big as the muscles can get and get tighten abs and all this stuff but then as you ant you kind of age out of that let me just tell you I’m 34 I’ve been married for quite some time now and at some point probably in your mid to late 20s is when you start you kind of lose sight of the muscles getting to the right proportions if if they’re not there yeah yeah yeah you’re like that’s not gonna happen ain’t gonna fact once you hit 30 years old you know that you lose 10% of your muscle mass every single year for the rest of your life not not if you do not already happen to me I’m not admitting to it naturally but what happens is you make this transition into that why are you talking just keep going you gonna be my distracting you got a flex worse kind of want to do I’ve got that look I did yeah I’m sure the ladies would be impressed by that but you know the tweens between girls will really like that yeah um that’s nothing I mean that’s me no no working out and I’m something you don’t need to work out I’m being facetious okay yeah I think but what ends up happening is you make this move from the building the muscles – and by the way I’m being sarcastic I don’t think that’s how you pronounce muscles so please don’t leave that comment all these they don’t do it’s pronounced mouthy and I’ll let your pronouncing muscles wrong is it’s not as if my fault it’s the muscles to see you silent people call your your your your focus shifts to cardio and you’re like I don’t want to die when I’m 48 I want to be living when I’m 48 so you get on the elliptical that’s what I do I get on the elliptical and so you know you you don’t get you buy an ellipticals what you did I did violin or two the next two weeks you get on the elliptical but all you had you also don’t go I think you did that the first time you gonna be awhile you get excited when you get on there you think about what you look like what a man looks like when you just take the elliptical away just put him on a green screen and he’s making that motion he looks like a dork it was like you should be embarrassed by the motion of an elliptical but yeah it looks kind of like a cross-country skier but you’re collided dork you’re you get you’ve gotten rid of going for the muscles and you just want to get rid of the fat you want to get the heart nice so you can keep living and your but I can’t even do that anymore all we do is sit there at these two computers and look at each other and come up with things and make this show make some other video it’s you see at least you sit on a medicine ball well is it no it’s an exercise oh it’s not a medicine ball oh that’s a heavy thing that you toss back in for let’s start doing that the medicine ball over the desk yeah it you know whenever you have an idea toss the ball only the person with the medicine ball can talk can give an idea any back and forth lots of ideas will that get the muscles yeah you so you said on an exercise ball that’s as close as you get to exercise that’s from my back using a exercise ball as an office chair I guess technically I exercise about 50 60 hours a week come to think of it I’m constantly exercising no see here’s the sit now there’s some people who just they’re addicted exercise they love it or they have some sort of a problem they need to deal with but for me I just I just can’t I can’t enjoy exercise for the sake of exercise I’ve got to have some sort of goal now first of all relate to people who say I saw up for a 5k or I signed up for a marathon or a half marathon and then you have a goal that you’re training for but I just I can’t even get up for that for me it’s got to be exercise has to be enjoyable in the moment you gotta be doing something that you enjoy right like like waterskiing which you do on the constant if I could water-ski if I could walk out of my dorm water ski I would I’d be I’d be in shape I think you can though there’s no lake and it requires a boat and be really good at waterskiing if it’s right outside of the door but that are you tracking with me hello I’m now you catching my vision for I’m why I’m digging the hole outside of my no I’m not digging a hole esse I’m not building a water-ski park outside of my house but I have started mountain biking again I’ve told you about this for the past couple of weeks I’ve you know I’ve taken my mountain bike and gone up into the the hills where Hollywood in so I think you’re also doing that to get away from me because you haven’t asked me to go with you we don’t have a bike I didn’t mean to offend you but it’s it’s fun and I’d like to think that I’m getting in better shape but if it’s not fun in the moment I just can’t do it I mean share in the comments how do you exercise is it is it an end of itself or is it for a goal or you know what motivates you to continue to do it I have these weights back here Reds bought so many different things he’s got an elliptical machine he’s BOTS he bought these weights did he put you know they’re gonna look like you can dial in the weights though you dial this thing and the weights are added to it this is an expensive thing that never you it was birthday gift and by the way there are no weights on it right now then your strain this is just a ten pounders my mom is much like you I never buy any exercise equipment my mom she’ll buy some exercise equipment I think she saw this thing called the bean you know that’s getting on QVC the delts and it’s an inflatable thing that you sit on and it ought to do setups what I don’t understand it why do you need to inflate something in order to do sit-ups you don’t need anything to do sit-ups and then the grandkids come over my kids go over to Granny’s house they get on this beam and within five minutes it’s totally deflated and the exercise ball that I bought tails gets heavier I was gonna use as an office chair my kids deflate that too so sorry I don’t recommend the bean I don’t recommend those and I don’t recommend an elliptical machine feel it right there Musca Liz gonna Wow pull up MA and when I flexed earlier like my bicep is actually still hurting I feel like I need to flex this one song all right how we gonna intercept the speech to warriors this is kind of like it we’re motivating a group of warriors the two of us to go out into battle soldiers oh I’ll and
