1
0:00:14,293 --> 0:00:17,255
Mark Haney: And now from the Marquee Media Studio
2
0:00:17,416 --> 0:00:18,837
Mark Haney: inside Mark Tank.
3
0:00:19,400 --> 0:00:21,749
Mark Haney: It's the Mark Haney Show.
4
0:00:24,003 --> 0:00:26,108
Jason Salinas: Yes, this is the Mark Haney Show and we are
5
0:00:26,148 --> 0:00:27,592

6
0:00:27,660 --> 0:00:28,986
Jason Salinas: revolution right here in the hometown we
7
0:00:29,046 --> 0:00:31,127
Jason Salinas: love, and we're doing that by building the
8
0:00:31,247 --> 0:00:33,998
Jason Salinas: backyard advantage the most connected

0:00:34,018 --> 0:00:35,163

10
0:00:35,263 --> 0:00:35,866
Jason Salinas: entrepreneurs.
11
0:00:36,560 --> 0:00:40,047
Jason Salinas: And we started this show to inspire people,
12
0:00:40,728 --> 0:00:44,340
Jason Salinas: to connect people, to educate people, and
13
0:00:44,360 --> 0:00:47,489
Jason Salinas: today on our show, we're going to have some
14
0:00:47,549 --> 0:00:48,011
Jason Salinas: of that.
15
0:00:48,521 --> 0:00:49,964
Jason Salinas: I think there's going to be maybe a little
16
0:00:49,984 --> 0:00:53,091
Jason Salinas: bit more inspiration than normal.
17
0:00:53,740 --> 0:00:55,583
Jason Salinas: I think if there's one thing that separates
18
0:00:56,545 --> 0:01:00,953
Jason Salinas: winners from the rest of us is the strength
19
0:01:01,700 --> 0:01:04,825
Jason Salinas: to keep going, the strength to persevere,
20
0:01:05,366 --> 0:01:08,832
Jason Salinas: the determination, the toughness, the
21
0:01:08,952 --> 0:01:13,206
Jason Salinas: courage, and despite the odds, they, and
22
0:01:13,226 --> 0:01:16,313
Jason Salinas: despite the pain, they continue to go on.
23
0:01:16,500 --> 0:01:18,426
Jason Salinas: And today on the show we're going to have
24
0:01:18,807 --> 0:01:19,910

0:01:27,420 --> 0:01:29,405
Jason Salinas: cool story, but we were prompted by our

0:01:29,445 --> 0:01:31,711
Jason Salinas: mutual friend, jason Bartlett, so that's
30
0:01:31,751 --> 0:01:33,905
Jason Salinas: cool you are here finally after all these
31
0:01:33,925 --> 0:01:34,206

0:01:34,800 --> 0:01:37,166
Jason Salinas: So I appreciate you coming on the show.
33
0:01:39,080 --> 0:01:40,826
Jason Salinas: So you're an entrepreneur, but you're more
34
0:01:40,847 --> 0:01:41,228
Jason Salinas: than that.
35
0:01:41,400 --> 0:01:42,743
Jason Salinas: Let's start off with a little bit of
36
0:01:43,706 --> 0:01:45,751
Jason Salinas: entrepreneurial talk, if you will.
37
0:01:46,280 --> 0:01:49,586
Jason Salinas: You've had this 20 years in business as a
38
0:01:51,248 --> 0:01:54,935
Jason Salinas: fitness guy and as a professional athlete,
39
0:01:55,020 --> 0:01:56,205
Jason Salinas: professional bodybuilder.
40
0:01:56,620 --> 0:01:58,164
Jason Salinas: So maybe tell us about that business and
41
0:01:58,184 --> 0:01:59,527
Jason Salinas: that and that little bit of that background
42
0:01:59,587 --> 0:01:59,948
Jason Salinas: and journey.
43
0:02:00,129 --> 0:02:02,504
Speaker 1: Okay, well, you know I was always into
44
0:02:02,544 --> 0:02:02,926
Speaker 1: working out.
45
0:02:02,980 --> 0:02:05,046
Speaker 1: I played sports in high school and it was
46
0:02:05,086 --> 0:02:06,490
Speaker 1: important to me to take care of my body.
47
0:02:06,760 --> 0:02:07,869
Speaker 1: You know this you'd have those kids that
48
0:02:07,889 --> 0:02:09,038
Speaker 1: would go in the weight room, spend the
49
0:02:09,058 --> 0:02:10,144
Speaker 1: minimal time in there and they were out of
50
0:02:10,164 --> 0:02:10,325
Speaker 1: there.
51
0:02:10,720 --> 0:02:12,305
Speaker 1: And any chance I could get when I was in
52
0:02:12,325 --> 0:02:13,248
Speaker 1: high school I was in the gym.
53
0:02:13,800 --> 0:02:15,710
Speaker 1: And so my very first job out of high school
54
0:02:15,750 --> 0:02:17,439
Speaker 1: I got working at a little family on gym
55
0:02:17,459 --> 0:02:18,704
Speaker 1: right across street from Sierra college
56
0:02:19,125 --> 0:02:20,920
Speaker 1: while I was playing football there and
57
0:02:20,940 --> 0:02:22,025
Speaker 1: still didn't really know what I wanted to
58
0:02:22,046 --> 0:02:22,106
Speaker 1: do.
59
0:02:22,180 --> 0:02:24,771
Speaker 1: I just knew I loved the gym and I would sit
60
0:02:24,932 --> 0:02:26,900
Speaker 1: from 5am until 9am when no one was really
61
0:02:27,000 --> 0:02:28,827
Speaker 1: there and watch the early morning people
62
0:02:28,867 --> 0:02:29,189
Speaker 1: work out.
63
0:02:29,260 --> 0:02:30,467
Speaker 1: I was so intrigued at all the different
64
0:02:30,528 --> 0:02:32,539
Speaker 1: styles of training and really just I tell
65
0:02:32,559 --> 0:02:33,683
Speaker 1: people about probably where I learned the
66
0:02:33,763 --> 0:02:35,328
Speaker 1: most out of all the certifications and all
67
0:02:35,348 --> 0:02:37,104
Speaker 1: the courses really just studying the
68
0:02:37,144 --> 0:02:39,176
Speaker 1: different styles of workouts and realizing
69
0:02:39,216 --> 0:02:40,582
Speaker 1: that there's so many different styles that
70
0:02:40,602 --> 0:02:41,466
Speaker 1: fit individual needs.
71
0:02:42,420 --> 0:02:44,186
Speaker 1: But I still wasn't really sure what my path
72
0:02:44,226 --> 0:02:44,406
Speaker 1: was.
73
0:02:44,447 --> 0:02:44,627
Speaker 1: Going.
74
0:02:44,647 --> 0:02:46,545
Speaker 1: To school I knew I always wanted to help
75
0:02:46,565 --> 0:02:46,786
Speaker 1: people.
76
0:02:46,900 --> 0:02:48,206
Speaker 1: I was enjoying working with people.
77
0:02:48,260 --> 0:02:49,745
Speaker 1: I was actually a peer helper in high school,
78
0:02:51,120 --> 0:02:53,162
Speaker 1: went through a little trauma when I was
79
0:02:53,279 --> 0:02:55,227
Speaker 1: younger and I had psychiatrist and
80
0:02:55,345 --> 0:02:57,145
Speaker 1: counselors that worked with me and they did
81
0:02:57,165 --> 0:02:57,547
Speaker 1: a lot for me.
82
0:02:57,680 --> 0:02:58,684
Speaker 1: So I always kind of thought maybe that's
83
0:02:58,724 --> 0:02:59,587
Speaker 1: the path that I want to go.
84
0:03:00,160 --> 0:03:01,627
Speaker 1: But I made the mistake of taking my first
85
0:03:01,647 --> 0:03:03,797
Speaker 1: psychology class one night a week, three
86
0:03:03,878 --> 0:03:06,281
Speaker 1: hours after football practice and it
87
0:03:06,342 --> 0:03:07,406
Speaker 1: literally flew over my head.
88
0:03:07,480 --> 0:03:08,944
Speaker 1: I think I probably went to half the classes
89
0:03:09,446 --> 0:03:10,830
Speaker 1: and actually ended up failing that class.
90
0:03:10,940 --> 0:03:12,064
Speaker 1: I said, man, I got to find a different
91
0:03:12,204 --> 0:03:13,628
Speaker 1: avenue in order to work with people.
92
0:03:14,320 --> 0:03:16,205
Speaker 1: And so while working at the gym it just
93
0:03:16,225 --> 0:03:18,130
Speaker 1: kind of it kind of I got tired of sitting
94
0:03:18,150 --> 0:03:18,611
Speaker 1: in the front desk.
95
0:03:19,160 --> 0:03:20,163
Speaker 1: So I said hey, do you mind if I do
96
0:03:20,223 --> 0:03:21,868
Speaker 1: orientation, show people how to work, work
97
0:03:21,908 --> 0:03:22,850
Speaker 1: on the equipment when they sign up.
98
0:03:23,320 --> 0:03:24,646
Speaker 1: So I kind of created this little position
99
0:03:25,329 --> 0:03:26,977
Speaker 1: and I'd say probably two, three weeks in
100
0:03:27,480 --> 0:03:28,760
Speaker 1: this family came in with their daughter I
101
0:03:28,780 --> 0:03:30,286
Speaker 1: was probably 19 at the time, girls probably
102
0:03:30,326 --> 0:03:30,627
Speaker 1: 14.
103
0:03:30,940 --> 0:03:31,943
Speaker 1: They should probably have a little crush on
104
0:03:31,963 --> 0:03:32,043
Speaker 1: me.
105
0:03:32,063 --> 0:03:32,905
Speaker 1: She says is he a trainer?
106
0:03:32,945 --> 0:03:33,486
Speaker 1: Can he train me?
107
0:03:34,068 --> 0:03:35,150
Speaker 1: So they said you train I go.
108
0:03:35,371 --> 0:03:35,852
Speaker 1: Yeah, I do.
109
0:03:36,160 --> 0:03:37,929
Speaker 1: I wasn't even certified, but they got some
110
0:03:37,970 --> 0:03:38,935
Speaker 1: sessions and I started.
111
0:03:39,096 --> 0:03:41,303
Speaker 1: I started training this girl and very
112
0:03:41,343 --> 0:03:43,286
Speaker 1: shortly after that I started dating.
113
0:03:43,968 --> 0:03:45,070
Speaker 1: You probably know Jim floor.
114
0:03:45,411 --> 0:03:45,651
Jason Salinas: Yeah.
115
0:03:45,691 --> 0:03:45,851
Speaker 1: Yeah.
116
0:03:47,320 --> 0:03:47,561
Jason Salinas: Andrew floor.
117
0:03:47,581 --> 0:03:48,644
Jason Salinas: Sister Megan floor was one of the first
118
0:03:48,724 --> 0:03:51,401
Jason Salinas: guests on our show and an annual Andrew
119
0:03:51,421 --> 0:03:53,385
Jason Salinas: floor at some level, because he was a good
120
0:03:53,405 --> 0:03:54,207
Jason Salinas: football player as well.
121
0:03:56,980 --> 0:03:58,567
Jason Salinas: But I want to stop for just a second here
122
0:03:58,607 --> 0:04:01,239
Jason Salinas: because there's a lesson in there for
123
0:04:01,279 --> 0:04:02,644
Jason Salinas: anybody out there that's got their first
124
0:04:02,704 --> 0:04:03,005
Jason Salinas: job.
125
0:04:04,040 --> 0:04:07,386
Jason Salinas: If you see something that you think you can
126
0:04:07,526 --> 0:04:10,952
Jason Salinas: add value in, like orientation or you know,
127
0:04:12,240 --> 0:04:13,886
Jason Salinas: don't be afraid to step up and create
128
0:04:13,906 --> 0:04:14,909
Jason Salinas: yourself your own position.
129
0:04:15,140 --> 0:04:16,725
Jason Salinas: So anyway, yeah keep continuing your
130
0:04:16,745 --> 0:04:17,146
Jason Salinas: stories.
131
0:04:17,367 --> 0:04:17,548
Speaker 1: Yeah.
132
0:04:18,581 --> 0:04:20,731
Speaker 1: So, um, shortly after that, megan obviously
133
0:04:20,751 --> 0:04:22,318
Speaker 1: we started dating and her parents.
134
0:04:22,359 --> 0:04:24,966
Speaker 1: They have this beautiful three card garage
135
0:04:25,006 --> 0:04:26,671
Speaker 1: gym converted into a gym for Andrew.
136
0:04:27,100 --> 0:04:28,625
Speaker 1: He was middle school getting ready for high
137
0:04:28,665 --> 0:04:28,805
Speaker 1: school.
138
0:04:28,825 --> 0:04:30,620
Speaker 1: At that time had a personal trainer that
139
0:04:30,640 --> 0:04:32,344
Speaker 1: came to the house train train the family.
140
0:04:33,086 --> 0:04:35,111
Speaker 1: He got hurt and so they said, hey, isn't
141
0:04:35,131 --> 0:04:35,852
Speaker 1: your boyfriend a trainer?
142
0:04:36,140 --> 0:04:37,270
Speaker 1: Can he come and train us?
143
0:04:37,320 --> 0:04:38,564
Speaker 1: So next thing, you know, I go out there, I
144
0:04:38,584 --> 0:04:40,661
Speaker 1: sit with that brand Graham I'm not
145
0:04:40,681 --> 0:04:41,683
Speaker 1: mentioning anything?
146
0:04:42,304 --> 0:04:43,687
Jason Salinas: Oh, shoot, I think it was.
147
0:04:43,707 --> 0:04:44,268
Jason Salinas: Yeah, I was.
148
0:04:44,328 --> 0:04:45,250
Jason Salinas: I went to high school with him.
149
0:04:45,290 --> 0:04:45,991
Jason Salinas: Okay, did you ever?
150
0:04:46,011 --> 0:04:47,640
Jason Salinas: Hear about the story of the half on that I
151
0:04:47,720 --> 0:04:49,043
Jason Salinas: heard it, but I don't know it.
152
0:04:49,544 --> 0:04:50,486
Speaker 1: Yeah, he got injured.
153
0:04:50,506 --> 0:04:51,228
Speaker 1: What is even that?
154
0:04:51,248 --> 0:04:51,669
Speaker 1: Yeah, okay.
155
0:04:54,160 --> 0:04:55,287
Speaker 1: So next thing you know, they said, hey, you
156
0:04:55,307 --> 0:04:56,252
Speaker 1: know, are you willing to come and train us
157
0:04:56,272 --> 0:04:56,635
Speaker 1: at the house?
158
0:04:56,655 --> 0:04:57,520
Speaker 1: I said Sure.
159
0:04:57,560 --> 0:05:00,006
Speaker 1: So we sat down and we talked and what I can
160
0:05:00,026 --> 0:05:02,192
Speaker 1: remember about that point time is he was a
161
0:05:02,340 --> 0:05:03,845
Speaker 1: bodybuilder, a professional bodybuilder,
162
0:05:03,865 --> 0:05:06,421
Speaker 1: but he was really hardcore in it and I
163
0:05:06,561 --> 0:05:08,667
Speaker 1: think the style of training was more like a
164
0:05:08,707 --> 0:05:10,100
Speaker 1: bodybuilding training for this couple, and
165
0:05:10,121 --> 0:05:11,471
Speaker 1: so they were a little bit older at that
166
0:05:11,491 --> 0:05:11,592
Speaker 1: time.
167
0:05:11,640 --> 0:05:13,425
Speaker 1: They looked good, but I think the push of
168
0:05:13,445 --> 0:05:15,171
Speaker 1: the heavy weights they were getting injured,
169
0:05:15,320 --> 0:05:17,280
Speaker 1: they couldn't create any consistency, they
170
0:05:17,300 --> 0:05:18,244
Speaker 1: couldn't create any results.
171
0:05:19,320 --> 0:05:21,011
Speaker 1: Here I came in and with what knowledge I
172
0:05:21,031 --> 0:05:22,319
Speaker 1: had learned in this short time, instead of
173
0:05:22,339 --> 0:05:23,609
Speaker 1: these different solid workouts, that, hey,
174
0:05:23,911 --> 0:05:25,100
Speaker 1: this is what we need to do for you guys.
175
0:05:25,120 --> 0:05:25,962
Speaker 1: We need to do high pace.
176
0:05:26,343 --> 0:05:28,428
Speaker 1: You know movements, you know good form,
177
0:05:28,468 --> 0:05:30,132
Speaker 1: technique, constantly changing workouts up,
178
0:05:30,521 --> 0:05:31,665
Speaker 1: and in two months they'd gotten better
179
0:05:31,705 --> 0:05:33,150
Speaker 1: results than they had seen in two years.
180
0:05:33,260 --> 0:05:35,346
Speaker 1: Now you know they were at that time they
181
0:05:35,366 --> 0:05:37,832
Speaker 1: were selling out um Arc Arena, anaheim
182
0:05:37,921 --> 0:05:40,758
Speaker 1: Stadium, 15, 17,000 people as the main
183
0:05:40,778 --> 0:05:41,020
Speaker 1: speaker.
184
0:05:41,181 --> 0:05:42,330
Speaker 1: So all of a sudden now they're showing up
185
0:05:42,350 --> 0:05:43,600
Speaker 1: at these events and people are like, oh my
186
0:05:43,721 --> 0:05:44,665
Speaker 1: God, what are you doing?
187
0:05:45,320 --> 0:05:47,307
Speaker 1: And they said we got a new trainer Right.
188
0:05:47,960 --> 0:05:49,044
Speaker 1: And so next thing, you know, all the local
189
0:05:49,084 --> 0:05:50,729
Speaker 1: granite Bay diamonds that were underneath
190
0:05:50,769 --> 0:05:52,104
Speaker 1: them were, can he train us at your house?
191
0:05:52,500 --> 0:05:53,635
Speaker 1: So next thing, you know, I've got a
192
0:05:53,655 --> 0:05:54,000
Speaker 1: schedule.
193
0:05:54,000 --> 0:05:54,982
Speaker 1: I was big in Amway.
194
0:05:55,022 --> 0:05:56,606
Jason Salinas: Yeah, yeah, so I've got a speaker.
195
0:05:56,787 --> 0:05:59,662
Speaker 1: I've got a schedule I'm training, probably,
196
0:05:59,682 --> 0:06:00,565
Speaker 1: you know, 10 to 12 people twice to three
197
0:06:00,586 --> 0:06:02,123
Speaker 1: times a week, and so I kind of created my
198
0:06:02,164 --> 0:06:03,428
Speaker 1: own personal training business right here
199
0:06:04,301 --> 0:06:06,067
Speaker 1: and so still wasn't really sure if that's
200
0:06:06,087 --> 0:06:06,629
Speaker 1: what I want to do.
201
0:06:06,760 --> 0:06:08,288
Speaker 1: I was kind of, you know, being young,
202
0:06:08,348 --> 0:06:10,378
Speaker 1: having fun running around with Jason
203
0:06:10,398 --> 0:06:12,666
Speaker 1: Bartlett at that time you know uh doing a
204
0:06:12,726 --> 0:06:14,648
Speaker 1: little bit of everything and I remember,
205
0:06:14,851 --> 0:06:15,680
Speaker 1: but I was always a hustler.
206
0:06:15,780 --> 0:06:17,405
Speaker 1: I mean I tell people you know when we talk
207
0:06:17,425 --> 0:06:19,820
Speaker 1: about I got out the minute I turned 18, I
208
0:06:19,880 --> 0:06:20,342
Speaker 1: moved out.
209
0:06:20,824 --> 0:06:21,788
Speaker 1: I was working two jobs.
210
0:06:21,860 --> 0:06:22,983
Speaker 1: I got a job at five in the morning there.
211
0:06:23,043 --> 0:06:24,989
Speaker 1: Then I went and did a temp, a student job
212
0:06:25,029 --> 0:06:27,004
Speaker 1: for the state, and I always was just trying
213
0:06:27,024 --> 0:06:29,325
Speaker 1: to hustle and grind and so it never was
214
0:06:29,505 --> 0:06:31,030
Speaker 1: depending on anybody for anything.
215
0:06:31,400 --> 0:06:34,426
Speaker 1: And so during this this uh transition of
216
0:06:34,466 --> 0:06:36,872
Speaker 1: training these clients not really sure if
217
0:06:36,912 --> 0:06:37,960
Speaker 1: that was kind of the bark for me I was
218
0:06:37,981 --> 0:06:39,186
Speaker 1: still kind of going to school at Sierra.
219
0:06:39,480 --> 0:06:40,745
Speaker 1: I said I was on the five year plan at
220
0:06:40,765 --> 0:06:43,032
Speaker 1: Sierra college and I had a defining moment.
221
0:06:43,060 --> 0:06:44,836
Speaker 1: I had an apartment fire and lost everything
222
0:06:44,856 --> 0:06:45,280
Speaker 1: in my apartment.
223
0:06:45,340 --> 0:06:47,321
Speaker 1: I was too prideful to move home, and so
224
0:06:47,382 --> 0:06:49,313
Speaker 1: that's what really kind of kicked me into a
225
0:06:49,394 --> 0:06:50,661
Speaker 1: gear where I was like, okay, I got to get
226
0:06:50,721 --> 0:06:51,926
Speaker 1: serious and figure out what I want to do.
227
0:06:52,880 --> 0:06:55,447
Speaker 1: And so I had at the time had transitioned
228
0:06:55,467 --> 0:06:57,220
Speaker 1: and started working for 24 hour fitness, a
229
0:06:57,280 --> 0:07:00,569
Speaker 1: big corporation, and was really enjoying
230
0:07:00,589 --> 0:07:00,749
Speaker 1: that.
231
0:07:00,870 --> 0:07:01,892
Speaker 1: But there wasn't consistency.
232
0:07:01,940 --> 0:07:03,281
Speaker 1: I'd have one month where I was there, next
233
0:07:03,301 --> 0:07:04,786
Speaker 1: month I'm kind of running around and they
234
0:07:04,826 --> 0:07:05,589
Speaker 1: came to me a couple of times.
235
0:07:05,700 --> 0:07:06,944
Speaker 1: I said, hey, you have the potential to be a
236
0:07:06,985 --> 0:07:08,329
Speaker 1: manager, but you got to be more consistent.
237
0:07:08,480 --> 0:07:09,987
Speaker 1: So I was like, hey, guys, I'm ready.
238
0:07:10,060 --> 0:07:11,325
Speaker 1: You want me to work weekends, whatever it
239
0:07:11,405 --> 0:07:12,008
Speaker 1: is, I'll do it.
240
0:07:12,060 --> 0:07:12,884
Speaker 1: I want to get that position.
241
0:07:13,560 --> 0:07:15,427
Speaker 1: I always liked, uh, cutting my buddy's hair
242
0:07:15,508 --> 0:07:16,463
Speaker 1: too, so I thought I wanted to be a
243
0:07:16,724 --> 0:07:17,286
Speaker 1: hairstylist.
244
0:07:17,360 --> 0:07:20,529
Speaker 1: So I had enrolled, uh, I got into Sac State,
245
0:07:20,549 --> 0:07:21,781
Speaker 1: but it wasn't starting till the fall, and I
246
0:07:21,821 --> 0:07:23,106
Speaker 1: also enrolled in cosmotology school.
247
0:07:23,160 --> 0:07:24,765
Speaker 1: I said, whatever one comes first is where
248
0:07:24,785 --> 0:07:25,608
Speaker 1: I'm going to put that energy.
249
0:07:26,520 --> 0:07:27,664
Speaker 1: And so they came to me about a month later
250
0:07:27,684 --> 0:07:29,169
Speaker 1: and said, hey, we're going to have you, um,
251
0:07:29,520 --> 0:07:31,465
Speaker 1: manage, be a, basically the fitness manager
252
0:07:31,486 --> 0:07:33,311
Speaker 1: in charge of the trainers of 24 hour
253
0:07:33,331 --> 0:07:34,724
Speaker 1: fitness, the brand new one opening up right
254
0:07:34,764 --> 0:07:35,366
Speaker 1: by the autumn mall.
255
0:07:36,180 --> 0:07:36,924
Speaker 1: So I said, let's do it.
256
0:07:37,240 --> 0:07:37,420
Speaker 1: It was.
257
0:07:37,601 --> 0:07:40,987
Speaker 1: You know, you go from making maybe 20,000 a
258
0:07:41,027 --> 0:07:43,532
Speaker 1: year to 65,000, my first year at 19 years
259
0:07:43,613 --> 0:07:44,663
Speaker 1: old, I was like okay.
260
0:07:44,683 --> 0:07:46,703
Jason Salinas: I'm ready for this thing, and so that's
261
0:07:46,743 --> 0:07:47,084
Jason Salinas: still.
262
0:07:47,204 --> 0:07:49,169
Jason Salinas: That's good money, but at that time that
263
0:07:49,189 --> 0:07:49,710
Jason Salinas: was a lot of money.
264
0:07:49,730 --> 0:07:50,833
Jason Salinas: That's a lot of money at that time.
265
0:07:50,860 --> 0:07:52,105
Speaker 1: You know I'd always dependent on having a
266
0:07:52,145 --> 0:07:52,627
Speaker 1: roommate or two.
267
0:07:52,780 --> 0:07:53,964
Speaker 1: Now is for the first time, had my own
268
0:07:54,004 --> 0:07:55,267
Speaker 1: apartment, had no debt.
269
0:07:55,308 --> 0:07:56,210
Speaker 1: Went by my first car.
270
0:07:56,520 --> 0:07:58,727
Jason Salinas: That'd be like making 120 grand a year now,
271
0:07:58,767 --> 0:07:59,128
Jason Salinas: or something.
272
0:07:59,208 --> 0:07:59,810
Jason Salinas: It felt like it.
273
0:07:59,890 --> 0:08:00,592
Jason Salinas: Yeah, that's for sure.
274
0:08:01,360 --> 0:08:01,762
Speaker 1: And so.
275
0:08:02,123 --> 0:08:03,348
Speaker 1: But when I did that, they said guess what?
276
0:08:03,440 --> 0:08:04,484
Speaker 1: Here's the thing, though you can't train
277
0:08:04,524 --> 0:08:05,187
Speaker 1: clients anymore.
278
0:08:05,520 --> 0:08:07,651
Speaker 1: You now got to train the trainers to do
279
0:08:07,832 --> 0:08:09,399
Speaker 1: what you've been doing to be successful in
280
0:08:09,419 --> 0:08:11,001
Speaker 1: these last couple of years, and so it was
281
0:08:11,021 --> 0:08:13,108
Speaker 1: kind of a new thing for me to adapt to
282
0:08:13,128 --> 0:08:13,710
Speaker 1: really enjoy both.
283
0:08:14,080 --> 0:08:15,906
Speaker 1: I enjoy, obviously, training clients, but I
284
0:08:15,966 --> 0:08:18,113
Speaker 1: also like working with people who are
285
0:08:18,133 --> 0:08:19,323
Speaker 1: looking at owning their own business and
286
0:08:19,343 --> 0:08:21,007
Speaker 1: becoming their own trainer and teaching
287
0:08:21,027 --> 0:08:22,471
Speaker 1: them all the insights to be successful.
288
0:08:22,740 --> 0:08:24,426
Speaker 1: So it's kind of something I really enjoy,
289
0:08:25,180 --> 0:08:26,825
Speaker 1: and I think at that time, because I had
290
0:08:26,865 --> 0:08:28,490
Speaker 1: such a big pool of trainers, coming to the
291
0:08:28,550 --> 0:08:30,327
Speaker 1: big gym was a lot easier.
292
0:08:30,540 --> 0:08:32,305
Speaker 1: Now I find it harder to really find
293
0:08:32,365 --> 0:08:34,410
Speaker 1: somebody who's as passionate about training
294
0:08:34,450 --> 0:08:36,546
Speaker 1: as I am, that's willing to invest the time.
295
0:08:36,740 --> 0:08:38,124
Speaker 1: I'm saying hey, you come and shadow with me
296
0:08:38,505 --> 0:08:39,910
Speaker 1: as sooner, and the more time you invest,
297
0:08:40,200 --> 0:08:41,265
Speaker 1: the faster I'll get you to where you need
298
0:08:41,285 --> 0:08:41,406
Speaker 1: to be.
299
0:08:41,520 --> 0:08:42,806
Speaker 1: They start and then they fall off.
300
0:08:42,980 --> 0:08:43,623
Speaker 1: That's the craziest thing.
301
0:08:44,240 --> 0:08:45,604
Speaker 1: So if there was a struggle, I'm still
302
0:08:45,644 --> 0:08:47,750
Speaker 1: learning on how to attract that, I think,
303
0:08:47,790 --> 0:08:48,391
Speaker 1: right now for me.
304
0:08:48,661 --> 0:08:50,746
Jason Salinas: Well, 20 years in business, you know you
305
0:08:50,786 --> 0:08:51,288
Jason Salinas: mentioned that.
306
0:08:51,508 --> 0:08:56,186
Jason Salinas: You know watching some of these athletes
307
0:08:56,226 --> 0:08:58,271
Jason Salinas: work out when you're in your first job.
308
0:08:58,680 --> 0:09:01,927
Jason Salinas: But fitness has changed a little bit.
309
0:09:01,967 --> 0:09:02,669
Jason Salinas: I was over there.
310
0:09:02,809 --> 0:09:03,791
Jason Salinas: You invited me.
311
0:09:03,871 --> 0:09:04,853
Jason Salinas: I wanted you to come on the show.
312
0:09:04,980 --> 0:09:06,286
Jason Salinas: You said why'd you come over and work out?
313
0:09:06,500 --> 0:09:08,907
Jason Salinas: And I'll admit I was very intimidated went
314
0:09:08,968 --> 0:09:09,931
Jason Salinas: over there and you took it.
315
0:09:10,000 --> 0:09:11,446
Jason Salinas: You were, you know, gentle with me, took it
316
0:09:11,506 --> 0:09:11,928
Jason Salinas: nice and easy.
317
0:09:11,960 --> 0:09:12,943
Jason Salinas: I went with the light weights and.
318
0:09:13,465 --> 0:09:16,495
Jason Salinas: But the workout that you put us through it
319
0:09:16,595 --> 0:09:19,366
Jason Salinas: was kind of like a circuit training.
320
0:09:19,960 --> 0:09:21,907
Jason Salinas: You didn't get a lot of rest in between.
321
0:09:22,860 --> 0:09:26,408
Jason Salinas: You picked four exercises and we bounced
322
0:09:26,488 --> 0:09:29,683
Jason Salinas: from circuit to circuit and we went through
323
0:09:29,703 --> 0:09:31,493
Jason Salinas: those four exercises four times and then we
324
0:09:31,553 --> 0:09:33,622
Jason Salinas: changed to another set of exercises and
325
0:09:34,083 --> 0:09:36,608
Jason Salinas: that continued for a while until I was
326
0:09:36,649 --> 0:09:37,731
Jason Salinas: exhausted and I had to quit.
327
0:09:38,760 --> 0:09:42,747
Jason Salinas: But is that the traditional workout that
328
0:09:42,787 --> 0:09:46,032
Jason Salinas: you would put a middle age man or an old
329
0:09:46,072 --> 0:09:46,593
Jason Salinas: man through?
330
0:09:46,633 --> 0:09:47,961
Jason Salinas: Or middle age man, cause there are some
331
0:09:47,981 --> 0:09:48,825
Jason Salinas: other guys working out with us?
332
0:09:48,945 --> 0:09:49,166
Speaker 1: Yeah.
333
0:09:50,000 --> 0:09:50,990
Speaker 1: So the bonus idea I would start anybody
334
0:09:51,010 --> 0:09:51,818
Speaker 1: with a full body workout.
335
0:09:52,060 --> 0:09:53,627
Speaker 1: Now, when we were younger, you know, you
336
0:09:53,647 --> 0:09:55,375
Speaker 1: kind of got you jumped right into the
337
0:09:55,455 --> 0:09:57,745
Speaker 1: splits, chest and trice, back and bars,
338
0:09:57,825 --> 0:09:59,984
Speaker 1: legs, shoulders and I did that for years.
339
0:10:00,560 --> 0:10:02,524
Speaker 1: And even when I did that style of workout,
340
0:10:02,584 --> 0:10:04,969
Speaker 1: or when I go back to it now, I still put
341
0:10:05,029 --> 0:10:05,630
Speaker 1: things together.
342
0:10:05,911 --> 0:10:06,993
Speaker 1: Now you said circuit training.
343
0:10:07,360 --> 0:10:08,284
Speaker 1: I've had people go oh, we're doing circuit
344
0:10:08,304 --> 0:10:08,485
Speaker 1: training.
345
0:10:08,600 --> 0:10:10,546
Speaker 1: I always like to say we're doing mass super
346
0:10:10,566 --> 0:10:10,867
Speaker 1: setting.
347
0:10:11,369 --> 0:10:11,670
Speaker 1: Oh, yeah.
348
0:10:11,980 --> 0:10:13,766
Speaker 1: To me circuit training is you're going to
349
0:10:13,786 --> 0:10:14,949
Speaker 1: be on station one, I'm going to be on
350
0:10:14,969 --> 0:10:16,262
Speaker 1: station two, we're going to go for 30
351
0:10:16,302 --> 0:10:18,088
Speaker 1: seconds or a minute and then we'll rotate
352
0:10:18,529 --> 0:10:18,810
Speaker 1: this.
353
0:10:19,040 --> 0:10:21,186
Speaker 1: You're still pushing 12 to 15 reps and then
354
0:10:21,227 --> 0:10:22,821
Speaker 1: you can actually increase the set Once you
355
0:10:22,861 --> 0:10:25,329
Speaker 1: get used to the, the conditioning of the
356
0:10:25,369 --> 0:10:25,530
Speaker 1: set.
357
0:10:25,580 --> 0:10:27,370
Speaker 1: And I start everybody off slow, not just
358
0:10:27,430 --> 0:10:29,139
Speaker 1: you but anybody, because I don't want to be
359
0:10:29,179 --> 0:10:29,701
Speaker 1: that trainer.
360
0:10:30,223 --> 0:10:31,606
Speaker 1: And for guys, it takes a lot for them to
361
0:10:31,646 --> 0:10:33,231
Speaker 1: come in and work out with a male trainer
362
0:10:33,640 --> 0:10:35,446
Speaker 1: and not think they're going to try to bury
363
0:10:35,466 --> 0:10:37,070
Speaker 1: them and put themselves here.
364
0:10:37,200 --> 0:10:38,847
Speaker 1: So I tell everybody start out slow.
365
0:10:38,960 --> 0:10:40,647
Speaker 1: I usually would tell them hey, you did four
366
0:10:40,687 --> 0:10:41,641
Speaker 1: sets, you did our exact worker.
367
0:10:41,662 --> 0:10:43,566
Speaker 1: But I'll even tell somebody new, just do
368
0:10:43,606 --> 0:10:43,847
Speaker 1: two.
369
0:10:44,208 --> 0:10:45,851
Speaker 1: Okay, I got two big guys that just started
370
0:10:45,872 --> 0:10:45,992
Speaker 1: with.
371
0:10:46,420 --> 0:10:47,603
Speaker 1: I mean, if you've seen them, you would
372
0:10:47,623 --> 0:10:50,030
Speaker 1: think these are your, your big guys in the
373
0:10:50,050 --> 0:10:50,331
Speaker 1: gym.
374
0:10:50,692 --> 0:10:52,164
Speaker 1: And they started my workouts and they
375
0:10:52,204 --> 0:10:53,889
Speaker 1: barely were doing two rounds, yeah, and
376
0:10:53,909 --> 0:10:55,053
Speaker 1: then they were in the bathroom throwing up.
377
0:10:55,434 --> 0:10:56,841
Jason Salinas: Oh, they're used to power it, they're used
378
0:10:56,861 --> 0:10:57,946
Jason Salinas: to having they're not used to that,
379
0:10:57,986 --> 0:11:00,345
Jason Salinas: conditioning you don't allow for you know I
380
0:11:00,386 --> 0:11:01,329
Jason Salinas: don't want to say allow.
381
0:11:01,880 --> 0:11:04,027
Jason Salinas: There's didn't feel like the time to rest.
382
0:11:04,127 --> 0:11:04,770
Jason Salinas: In between.
383
0:11:05,000 --> 0:11:06,345
Jason Salinas: I was trying to keep up with you and the
384
0:11:06,405 --> 0:11:07,809
Jason Salinas: other two guys that were working out with
385
0:11:07,850 --> 0:11:09,486
Jason Salinas: us and it's like, well, we're not resting,
386
0:11:09,660 --> 0:11:11,387
Jason Salinas: and so I'm kind of curious about that too
387
0:11:11,460 --> 0:11:11,560
Jason Salinas: Cause.
388
0:11:11,600 --> 0:11:13,005
Jason Salinas: I find that I do a little CrossFit, a
389
0:11:13,045 --> 0:11:15,151
Jason Salinas: little little yoga and I find that I can
390
0:11:15,240 --> 0:11:19,608
Jason Salinas: get sore or like if I superset like for the
391
0:11:19,729 --> 0:11:22,073
Jason Salinas: somebody just listening, superset, as I
392
0:11:22,133 --> 0:11:26,271
Jason Salinas: understand it is let's say, I'll do this.
393
0:11:26,440 --> 0:11:29,262
Jason Salinas: Sometimes you do a set of bench, maybe do
394
0:11:29,322 --> 0:11:32,024
Jason Salinas: 10, 12 reps, whatever feels pretty hard for
395
0:11:32,064 --> 0:11:35,372
Jason Salinas: you, and Afterwards go down and do 20
396
0:11:35,412 --> 0:11:37,991
Jason Salinas: pushups and that way you kind of super set
397
0:11:38,011 --> 0:11:40,928
Jason Salinas: the chest a little bit and if you do that
398
0:11:41,289 --> 0:11:43,856
Jason Salinas: three or four times you can get sore.
399
0:11:44,265 --> 0:11:47,246
Jason Salinas: And I wonder, why Is that?
400
0:11:47,266 --> 0:11:48,691
Jason Salinas: Because you're already tired and you're
401
0:11:48,711 --> 0:11:49,454
Jason Salinas: already breathing hard.
402
0:11:49,605 --> 0:11:51,632
Jason Salinas: And then you just lighten it up, almost
403
0:11:51,652 --> 0:11:53,628
Jason Salinas: like a drop set, but you're still kind of
404
0:11:53,668 --> 0:11:56,491
Jason Salinas: breathing hard or your heart rate's up.
405
0:11:57,286 --> 0:11:59,072
Jason Salinas: And then you push it again for another
406
0:11:59,212 --> 0:12:02,228
Jason Salinas: whatever 45, 60 seconds Push in the muscles
407
0:12:02,268 --> 0:12:03,573
Jason Salinas: past its normal fatigue stage.
408
0:12:03,745 --> 0:12:04,608
Mark Haney: So it's that shock.
409
0:12:04,849 --> 0:12:06,154
Speaker 1: right, you think you're just done.
410
0:12:06,205 --> 0:12:07,705
Speaker 1: You just did eight to 12 reps a bench and
411
0:12:07,725 --> 0:12:08,850
Speaker 1: now you're gonna go and do your body weight
412
0:12:09,145 --> 0:12:10,852
Speaker 1: for eight to 10 pushups, just till failure.
413
0:12:11,245 --> 0:12:12,991
Speaker 1: So it's kind of that exact same concept
414
0:12:13,011 --> 0:12:13,713
Speaker 1: that you just said.
415
0:12:14,205 --> 0:12:17,188
Speaker 1: But what I like about it is I train clients
416
0:12:17,228 --> 0:12:19,435
Speaker 1: that way because two things.
417
0:12:19,565 --> 0:12:22,014
Speaker 1: One, when they come in, it allows them to
418
0:12:22,054 --> 0:12:23,690
Speaker 1: target everything as a whole, without so
419
0:12:23,751 --> 0:12:25,168
Speaker 1: much emphasis in one muscle group that
420
0:12:25,188 --> 0:12:26,573
Speaker 1: they're so sore they can't come back.
421
0:12:26,846 --> 0:12:28,286
Speaker 1: Somebody just starts with you and I go okay,
422
0:12:28,306 --> 0:12:30,126
Speaker 1: today we're doing just chest and tris and I
423
0:12:30,146 --> 0:12:31,931
Speaker 1: have to fill 45 minutes to an hour of chest
424
0:12:31,972 --> 0:12:32,313
Speaker 1: and tris.
425
0:12:32,674 --> 0:12:33,806
Speaker 1: They're not gonna be able to move, even if
426
0:12:33,846 --> 0:12:35,507
Speaker 1: I went lightweight with them, so I like to
427
0:12:35,547 --> 0:12:36,290
Speaker 1: just do a little bit.
428
0:12:36,625 --> 0:12:38,687
Speaker 1: Then there's the typical guys majority of
429
0:12:38,707 --> 0:12:39,851
Speaker 1: them that don't like to do legs.
430
0:12:40,405 --> 0:12:42,152
Speaker 1: So now you're forcing them to incorporate,
431
0:12:42,192 --> 0:12:42,393
Speaker 1: you know.
432
0:12:42,605 --> 0:12:43,328
Jason Salinas: Why is that?
433
0:12:43,509 --> 0:12:44,733
Jason Salinas: Because they want to look good.
434
0:12:44,845 --> 0:12:46,652
Speaker 1: They want to look at the big arms and all
435
0:12:46,672 --> 0:12:47,928
Speaker 1: that they generally want.
436
0:12:47,968 --> 0:12:48,951
Speaker 1: What's seen the most?
437
0:12:49,092 --> 0:12:50,789
Speaker 1: To look the biggest, so chest and arms
438
0:12:50,849 --> 0:12:51,030
Speaker 1: right.
439
0:12:51,165 --> 0:12:51,667
Speaker 1: You wear a shirt.
440
0:12:51,687 --> 0:12:52,591
Speaker 1: You look tight in your chest.
441
0:12:52,765 --> 0:12:55,213
Speaker 1: Yeah, but you know, if you want to have
442
0:12:55,293 --> 0:12:57,129
Speaker 1: your pants, look right, you gotta do some
443
0:12:57,169 --> 0:12:59,090
Speaker 1: squats right and you know that if you don't
444
0:12:59,150 --> 0:13:01,230
Speaker 1: do legs and you go to do legs it hurts
445
0:13:01,270 --> 0:13:01,732
Speaker 1: really bad.
446
0:13:02,045 --> 0:13:03,471
Speaker 1: So then that churs them from going.
447
0:13:03,545 --> 0:13:05,305
Speaker 1: I'm not doing legs for a while again, but
448
0:13:05,346 --> 0:13:07,068
Speaker 1: by doing the full body just puts a couple
449
0:13:07,108 --> 0:13:08,513
Speaker 1: sets in there and get a nice little pump.
450
0:13:08,986 --> 0:13:10,666
Speaker 1: And it's funny because for guys they go wow,
451
0:13:10,686 --> 0:13:11,930
Speaker 1: I've actually started to see some shape in
452
0:13:11,950 --> 0:13:14,785
Speaker 1: my legs and now I'm past that soreness that
453
0:13:14,805 --> 0:13:16,171
Speaker 1: I would have normally got just doing legs
454
0:13:16,191 --> 0:13:17,950
Speaker 1: in an hour, and now they're wanting to
455
0:13:17,970 --> 0:13:19,469
Speaker 1: incorporate into a regular regimen more.
456
0:13:19,590 --> 0:13:21,993
Jason Salinas: So you know, the other thing I heard from
457
0:13:22,013 --> 0:13:24,650
Jason Salinas: watching YouTube is that from a
458
0:13:24,710 --> 0:13:27,148
Jason Salinas: testosterone standpoint, if you do heavy
459
0:13:27,228 --> 0:13:31,387
Jason Salinas: legs, it can be good for guys to have it
460
0:13:31,447 --> 0:13:32,612
Jason Salinas: release testosterone.
461
0:13:32,845 --> 0:13:33,929
Speaker 1: Yeah, that's your largest mosquito.
462
0:13:33,969 --> 0:13:37,590
Jason Salinas: 100% Okay, so that's true, Okay so in terms
463
0:13:37,710 --> 0:13:39,736
Jason Salinas: of, I have my wife's.
464
0:13:40,346 --> 0:13:43,646
Jason Salinas: So this is gonna be excuse me, we'll get
465
0:13:43,666 --> 0:13:47,512
Jason Salinas: into this in a little bit but my wife is
466
0:13:47,753 --> 0:13:50,808
Jason Salinas: Jason's mom's cousin, so I think that makes
467
0:13:50,828 --> 0:13:51,812
Jason Salinas: you like a second cousin.
468
0:13:51,905 --> 0:13:54,406
Jason Salinas: So you and I I've actually known you since
469
0:13:54,466 --> 0:13:57,435
Jason Salinas: you were probably 13 or 14 years old.
470
0:13:57,545 --> 0:14:00,374
Jason Salinas: We used to kind of converge at Anastel's
471
0:14:00,414 --> 0:14:02,669
Jason Salinas: house Yep, that'd be your grandmother,
472
0:14:02,709 --> 0:14:05,285
Jason Salinas: right, your grandma's house for Easter and
473
0:14:05,305 --> 0:14:07,974
Jason Salinas: it'd be 100 plus people playing horseshoes
474
0:14:08,145 --> 0:14:09,610
Jason Salinas: and having a good time and so on.
475
0:14:10,665 --> 0:14:12,251
Jason Salinas: So I've known you, but I didn't know you
476
0:14:12,271 --> 0:14:14,872
Jason Salinas: very well and maybe I still don't as much.
477
0:14:14,985 --> 0:14:17,512
Jason Salinas: So getting to know you a little bit better,
478
0:14:18,725 --> 0:14:20,953
Jason Salinas: but I do have a question that Stacy wanted
479
0:14:21,013 --> 0:14:21,134
Jason Salinas: me.
480
0:14:21,285 --> 0:14:22,992
Jason Salinas: My wife Stacy wanted me to ask.
481
0:14:23,285 --> 0:14:26,714
Jason Salinas: She wanted to ask like because you've aged
482
0:14:26,835 --> 0:14:29,811
Jason Salinas: well, right, I think you're probably eight
483
0:14:29,852 --> 0:14:32,409
Jason Salinas: or nine years younger than her, but you
484
0:14:32,469 --> 0:14:34,435
Jason Salinas: look great and you're in great shape.
485
0:14:34,785 --> 0:14:36,853
Jason Salinas: Are there any secrets or any?
486
0:14:38,566 --> 0:14:41,446
Jason Salinas: Is there any tricks that you use that maybe
487
0:14:41,486 --> 0:14:42,409
Jason Salinas: most people wouldn't think of?
488
0:14:42,911 --> 0:14:43,473
Jason Salinas: I use them all.
489
0:14:44,829 --> 0:14:45,412
Speaker 1: I use them all.
490
0:14:45,805 --> 0:14:47,966
Speaker 1: You know people ask all the time like, how
491
0:14:47,986 --> 0:14:48,870
Speaker 1: do you stand shit?
492
0:14:50,168 --> 0:14:52,394
Speaker 1: The biggest motivator for me is this is my
493
0:14:52,434 --> 0:14:52,615
Speaker 1: job.
494
0:14:53,326 --> 0:14:54,370
Speaker 1: I literally go.
495
0:14:54,450 --> 0:14:55,233
Speaker 1: It is my job.
496
0:14:55,805 --> 0:14:56,689
Speaker 1: I've gotten to this point.
497
0:14:56,709 --> 0:14:57,552
Speaker 1: I've been successful.
498
0:14:57,785 --> 0:14:58,950
Speaker 1: You know, 20 years in the business.
499
0:14:59,825 --> 0:15:01,913
Speaker 1: But when you hire somebody and you're gonna
500
0:15:01,953 --> 0:15:03,188
Speaker 1: pay them a good amount of money to
501
0:15:03,228 --> 0:15:05,588
Speaker 1: transform your life, they better look how
502
0:15:05,628 --> 0:15:06,170
Speaker 1: you wanna look.
503
0:15:06,885 --> 0:15:08,813
Speaker 1: And so I've just always had that mentality
504
0:15:08,905 --> 0:15:10,825
Speaker 1: where it's like I can't miss working out, I
505
0:15:10,845 --> 0:15:12,783
Speaker 1: can't miss eating good 70 to 80% of the
506
0:15:12,803 --> 0:15:14,711
Speaker 1: time and I enjoy going out, eating and
507
0:15:14,731 --> 0:15:15,073
Speaker 1: doing regular.
508
0:15:15,325 --> 0:15:16,926
Speaker 1: But I've built myself up to a point where I
509
0:15:16,946 --> 0:15:18,407
Speaker 1: can get away with things that the average
510
0:15:18,447 --> 0:15:20,369
Speaker 1: person can't, because they're not where I
511
0:15:20,469 --> 0:15:20,770
Speaker 1: am now.
512
0:15:20,790 --> 0:15:21,573
Speaker 1: Does that make sense?
513
0:15:22,005 --> 0:15:23,305
Speaker 1: But that's probably the biggest thing is
514
0:15:23,345 --> 0:15:25,173
Speaker 1: just that motivation, knowing you know
515
0:15:25,225 --> 0:15:26,550
Speaker 1: people go well, I work, it's hard to get
516
0:15:26,590 --> 0:15:26,710
Speaker 1: you.
517
0:15:27,031 --> 0:15:27,674
Speaker 1: I understand all that.
518
0:15:27,825 --> 0:15:30,545
Speaker 1: In my entire life I've worked in a gym, so
519
0:15:30,565 --> 0:15:32,207
Speaker 1: there's never been an excuse can't get my
520
0:15:32,247 --> 0:15:33,572
Speaker 1: work out in it, can't get my cardio in.
521
0:15:33,705 --> 0:15:34,609
Speaker 1: I'm there all day.
522
0:15:35,025 --> 0:15:36,230
Speaker 1: So suddenly people man, I was just working
523
0:15:37,006 --> 0:15:39,673
Speaker 1: and I have to understand that their
524
0:15:39,693 --> 0:15:40,736
Speaker 1: lifestyle is not the same as mine.
525
0:15:41,065 --> 0:15:43,112
Speaker 1: I've been in the gym 20 plus years, almost
526
0:15:43,212 --> 0:15:43,633
Speaker 1: every day.
527
0:15:44,385 --> 0:15:46,753
Speaker 1: But when it comes to, you know, getting
528
0:15:46,773 --> 0:15:48,309
Speaker 1: hair transplant, when it comes to getting
529
0:15:48,349 --> 0:15:50,311
Speaker 1: Botox anytime I can get in there and work
530
0:15:50,351 --> 0:15:52,512
Speaker 1: with somebody you know being somebody in
531
0:15:52,533 --> 0:15:54,609
Speaker 1: this area a lot of companies will reach out
532
0:15:54,649 --> 0:15:55,693
Speaker 1: and say, hey, you know, I know you got a
533
0:15:55,713 --> 0:15:56,932
Speaker 1: huge following, I know you got a lot of
534
0:15:56,952 --> 0:15:58,708
Speaker 1: people to support you and I do a good job
535
0:15:58,748 --> 0:15:59,431
Speaker 1: too of hyping it up.
536
0:15:59,805 --> 0:16:01,331
Speaker 1: But get me in, you know, and say I want.
537
0:16:01,391 --> 0:16:03,992
Speaker 1: Like I kind of came to terms with the
538
0:16:04,012 --> 0:16:05,468
Speaker 1: thumbs buzz in my head, I'm shaving it down
539
0:16:05,509 --> 0:16:07,590
Speaker 1: you know, and so my friend had worked with
540
0:16:07,610 --> 0:16:09,747
Speaker 1: this local hair restoration guy in Granite
541
0:16:09,767 --> 0:16:11,888
Speaker 1: Bay, just started his practice, and so so I
542
0:16:11,908 --> 0:16:13,073
Speaker 1: like I just wanted to come meet him, you
543
0:16:13,093 --> 0:16:13,928
Speaker 1: know, and check him out.
544
0:16:14,425 --> 0:16:17,314
Speaker 1: Great guy, has been a physician in Yuba
545
0:16:17,334 --> 0:16:19,350
Speaker 1: City for years but decided hair is kind of
546
0:16:19,390 --> 0:16:20,193
Speaker 1: his passion, you know.
547
0:16:20,305 --> 0:16:21,529
Speaker 1: And so we got talking.
548
0:16:21,549 --> 0:16:23,106
Speaker 1: His office kind of looked like it was
549
0:16:23,126 --> 0:16:25,028
Speaker 1: thrown together and so I said, man, this is
550
0:16:25,229 --> 0:16:27,388
Speaker 1: this hair restoration, the bougie procedure.
551
0:16:27,428 --> 0:16:28,673
Speaker 1: You got to get this place dialed in.
552
0:16:29,025 --> 0:16:30,391
Speaker 1: You need some white couches in here, some
553
0:16:30,431 --> 0:16:31,809
Speaker 1: fur rug, I mean, you got to get it sharp,
554
0:16:31,869 --> 0:16:32,110
Speaker 1: you know.
555
0:16:32,765 --> 0:16:34,110
Speaker 1: And so just after talking with him he's
556
0:16:34,130 --> 0:16:35,869
Speaker 1: like I, you know, I really enjoyed the time
557
0:16:35,889 --> 0:16:36,190
Speaker 1: with that guy.
558
0:16:36,265 --> 0:16:37,330
Speaker 1: I want him to be the face of the company.
559
0:16:37,425 --> 0:16:38,851
Speaker 1: I want to do this hair for free, wow.
560
0:16:39,545 --> 0:16:40,750
Speaker 1: So went in there, had the hair procedure
561
0:16:40,790 --> 0:16:42,852
Speaker 1: done, and so, you know, just things like
562
0:16:42,872 --> 0:16:42,992
Speaker 1: that.
563
0:16:43,286 --> 0:16:44,531
Speaker 1: I network really well with people.
564
0:16:44,625 --> 0:16:45,428
Speaker 1: But, you know, have somebody go.
565
0:16:45,449 --> 0:16:48,291
Speaker 1: Hey, you know, would love to post a video.
566
0:16:48,311 --> 0:16:49,194
Speaker 1: You get your Botox.
567
0:16:49,214 --> 0:16:49,956
Speaker 1: I have no shame in that.
568
0:16:50,025 --> 0:16:51,330
Speaker 1: A lot of guys don't want, you know, that to
569
0:16:51,350 --> 0:16:52,066
Speaker 1: be seen For me.
570
0:16:52,306 --> 0:16:53,510
Speaker 1: If it makes me look younger and feel
571
0:16:53,530 --> 0:16:54,312
Speaker 1: younger, I'm going to do it.
572
0:16:54,393 --> 0:16:56,348
Speaker 1: So Well, you're in the business of helping
573
0:16:56,368 --> 0:16:57,886
Speaker 1: people look and feel good and we all kind
574
0:16:57,906 --> 0:16:58,971
Speaker 1: of work together, you know.
575
0:16:59,145 --> 0:17:00,691
Speaker 1: And so, yeah, there's definitely a lot of
576
0:17:00,732 --> 0:17:02,791
Speaker 1: tricks and anyone of I can find I'm doing
577
0:17:02,831 --> 0:17:02,871
Speaker 1: it.
578
0:17:02,992 --> 0:17:03,453
Speaker 1: You know what I mean.
579
0:17:03,845 --> 0:17:05,030
Jason Salinas: So when people come in.
580
0:17:05,050 --> 0:17:07,410
Jason Salinas: So a few of my buddies I know Jason works
581
0:17:07,491 --> 0:17:09,269
Jason Salinas: out over there, tori works out over there,
582
0:17:09,289 --> 0:17:10,849
Jason Salinas: a few others and I knew I knew one of the
583
0:17:10,869 --> 0:17:12,047
Jason Salinas: guys that you were working out with the day
584
0:17:12,067 --> 0:17:12,509
Jason Salinas: I was over there.
585
0:17:12,825 --> 0:17:15,194
Jason Salinas: So I probably know a few few more people
586
0:17:15,265 --> 0:17:16,529
Jason Salinas: that work out at your gym.
587
0:17:16,569 --> 0:17:19,188
Jason Salinas: But people transform, I mean when they come
588
0:17:19,428 --> 0:17:20,572
Jason Salinas: in they might be.
589
0:17:21,465 --> 0:17:23,232
Jason Salinas: I mean talk to me about that transformation.
590
0:17:23,445 --> 0:17:25,974
Jason Salinas: That's your goal or their goal typically.
591
0:17:26,085 --> 0:17:28,413
Speaker 1: So for me personally that's what I consider
592
0:17:28,433 --> 0:17:30,570
Speaker 1: myself is a transform, somebody who
593
0:17:30,610 --> 0:17:32,014
Speaker 1: specializes in transformations.
594
0:17:32,685 --> 0:17:35,685
Speaker 1: And at a very young part of my career, when
595
0:17:35,705 --> 0:17:37,586
Speaker 1: I started at 24, our fitness I had been
596
0:17:37,606 --> 0:17:38,771
Speaker 1: training, I'd been training the floors
597
0:17:38,811 --> 0:17:40,330
Speaker 1: already, I'd been working in that small gym.
598
0:17:40,865 --> 0:17:43,326
Speaker 1: I thought I knew nutrition and training and
599
0:17:43,366 --> 0:17:45,225
Speaker 1: it wasn't until I got hired on at 24, which
600
0:17:45,266 --> 0:17:48,165
Speaker 1: at the time, 1997, was very credible for
601
0:17:48,185 --> 0:17:50,173
Speaker 1: their trainers and Folsom had the best
602
0:17:50,213 --> 0:17:50,433
Speaker 1: staff.
603
0:17:50,585 --> 0:17:52,071
Speaker 1: I mean these guys, there was probably 10
604
0:17:52,111 --> 0:17:55,092
Speaker 1: trainers there, multiple degrees, national
605
0:17:55,132 --> 0:17:57,049
Speaker 1: certifications, just very knowledgeable
606
0:17:57,069 --> 0:17:57,371
Speaker 1: trainers.
607
0:17:57,505 --> 0:18:00,486
Speaker 1: But at the time when you signed up they had
608
0:18:00,506 --> 0:18:02,072
Speaker 1: the trainers and they had a nutrition tech
609
0:18:02,205 --> 0:18:03,450
Speaker 1: who worked under a licensed software
610
0:18:03,471 --> 0:18:03,691
Speaker 1: program.
611
0:18:03,865 --> 0:18:06,354
Speaker 1: And so they said when people are signing up,
612
0:18:06,465 --> 0:18:07,530
Speaker 1: they're getting conflicting information
613
0:18:07,625 --> 0:18:08,810
Speaker 1: with two different people or they're
614
0:18:08,830 --> 0:18:10,087
Speaker 1: getting one service but not the other.
615
0:18:10,107 --> 0:18:11,211
Speaker 1: They're not really getting results.
616
0:18:11,985 --> 0:18:14,413
Speaker 1: And working for 24 or in a big corporate
617
0:18:14,433 --> 0:18:15,788
Speaker 1: gym like that, it's not really about the
618
0:18:15,828 --> 0:18:16,772
Speaker 1: results, about sales.
619
0:18:17,245 --> 0:18:18,591
Speaker 1: How much personal training can you sell?
620
0:18:19,006 --> 0:18:19,990
Speaker 1: And so they're constantly on you.
621
0:18:20,010 --> 0:18:21,287
Speaker 1: You're a hero one month if you have a big
622
0:18:21,327 --> 0:18:23,368
Speaker 1: month and a zero next month, like any sales
623
0:18:23,388 --> 0:18:25,845
Speaker 1: position, and so they're constantly the
624
0:18:25,886 --> 0:18:27,987
Speaker 1: highs and the lows of the sales, not really
625
0:18:28,007 --> 0:18:28,871
Speaker 1: worried about the results.
626
0:18:29,225 --> 0:18:31,072
Speaker 1: But one thing that was very fortunate for
627
0:18:31,112 --> 0:18:32,846
Speaker 1: me is when I came in, they go, we're gonna
628
0:18:32,886 --> 0:18:34,305
Speaker 1: do away with these nutrition techs and
629
0:18:34,325 --> 0:18:35,525
Speaker 1: we're gonna send the trainers to school and
630
0:18:35,545 --> 0:18:37,486
Speaker 1: teach them the same software program and
631
0:18:37,546 --> 0:18:38,871
Speaker 1: make them become the nutrition tech.
632
0:18:39,266 --> 0:18:41,032
Speaker 1: And once that happened for me, the light
633
0:18:41,052 --> 0:18:42,650
Speaker 1: came on and I was like man, I've been doing
634
0:18:42,670 --> 0:18:43,132
Speaker 1: this all wrong.
635
0:18:43,185 --> 0:18:45,233
Speaker 1: What I thought was healthy wasn't healthy.
636
0:18:45,285 --> 0:18:46,626
Speaker 1: I thought carrot cake was healthy because
637
0:18:46,646 --> 0:18:47,208
Speaker 1: they had carrots in it.
638
0:18:47,489 --> 0:18:49,108
Speaker 1: I mean, I'm just kidding, but that's kind
639
0:18:49,128 --> 0:18:50,252
Speaker 1: of the knowledge that some people have.
640
0:18:51,046 --> 0:18:53,755
Speaker 1: And I thought chicken breast that was cut
641
0:18:53,795 --> 0:18:55,450
Speaker 1: up in a package in the deli section I could
642
0:18:55,490 --> 0:18:55,831
Speaker 1: have that.
643
0:18:56,172 --> 0:18:57,015
Speaker 1: Well, no, it's processed.
644
0:18:57,105 --> 0:18:59,087
Speaker 1: There's ton of sodium in there, additives,
645
0:18:59,107 --> 0:18:59,630
Speaker 1: preservatives.
646
0:18:59,725 --> 0:19:01,651
Speaker 1: It's not the same as you cook on your own
647
0:19:01,712 --> 0:19:02,655
Speaker 1: and know exactly what's in it.
648
0:19:02,725 --> 0:19:05,666
Speaker 1: So I remember I said I took this lady she
649
0:19:05,706 --> 0:19:07,072
Speaker 1: was, we're still friends today.
650
0:19:07,145 --> 0:19:10,495
Speaker 1: She was a five, two, 240 pounds over 40%
651
0:19:10,555 --> 0:19:10,896
Speaker 1: body fat.
652
0:19:10,945 --> 0:19:12,371
Speaker 1: That's as big as the calipers, the pincers
653
0:19:12,425 --> 0:19:13,710
Speaker 1: that we would use we get.
654
0:19:14,165 --> 0:19:15,947
Speaker 1: I trained her for four years but about two
655
0:19:15,987 --> 0:19:17,365
Speaker 1: years she started making some noise but
656
0:19:17,385 --> 0:19:20,574
Speaker 1: over the four years she got down to 117
657
0:19:20,735 --> 0:19:21,036
Speaker 1: pounds.
658
0:19:21,305 --> 0:19:23,647
Speaker 1: Okay, for five two that's about right 15%
659
0:19:23,667 --> 0:19:25,426
Speaker 1: body fat Nice, no surgery.
660
0:19:25,446 --> 0:19:27,372
Speaker 1: Her skin was as tight as a 20 year old Wow,
661
0:19:27,945 --> 0:19:29,051
Speaker 1: and it was just teaching her to eat a whole
662
0:19:29,132 --> 0:19:29,393
Speaker 1: food.
663
0:19:29,525 --> 0:19:31,287
Speaker 1: We started slow, built up but, like I said,
664
0:19:31,307 --> 0:19:32,987
Speaker 1: two years in they're like people were
665
0:19:33,127 --> 0:19:33,609
Speaker 1: calling going.
666
0:19:33,649 --> 0:19:35,189
Speaker 1: You're amazing, you're inspiring, you
667
0:19:35,209 --> 0:19:35,891
Speaker 1: should be a trainer.
668
0:19:36,205 --> 0:19:37,230
Speaker 1: They posted her picture up.
669
0:19:37,466 --> 0:19:38,350
Speaker 1: That's life changing.
670
0:19:38,465 --> 0:19:40,030
Speaker 1: And all the 24 hours and my little picture
671
0:19:40,050 --> 0:19:40,571
Speaker 1: was on the corner.
672
0:19:41,213 --> 0:19:42,185
Speaker 1: Next thing, you know, people are like I
673
0:19:42,205 --> 0:19:42,848
Speaker 1: want to train with him.
674
0:19:43,310 --> 0:19:43,852
Speaker 1: I want to train with him.
675
0:19:44,185 --> 0:19:45,290
Speaker 1: And he was like, oh, this is the ticket.
676
0:19:45,645 --> 0:19:46,951
Speaker 1: If I can transform people, I don't got to
677
0:19:46,971 --> 0:19:47,332
Speaker 1: sell anything.
678
0:19:47,425 --> 0:19:48,189
Speaker 1: They're going to come to me.
679
0:19:48,785 --> 0:19:50,752
Speaker 1: And so I took that mindset and just really
680
0:19:50,792 --> 0:19:52,971
Speaker 1: kind of ran with it, put a program together
681
0:19:53,385 --> 0:19:55,513
Speaker 1: and at that time, do you remember Bill
682
0:19:55,553 --> 0:19:56,487
Speaker 1: Phillips, body for Life.
683
0:19:57,390 --> 0:19:57,731
Jason Salinas: I don't.
684
0:19:57,751 --> 0:20:00,550
Speaker 1: It was a transformation contest, probably
685
0:20:00,570 --> 0:20:02,366
Speaker 1: in the late 90s, early 2000s he wrote a
686
0:20:02,406 --> 0:20:03,230
Speaker 1: book Eating for Life.
687
0:20:03,925 --> 0:20:05,370
Speaker 1: He had the supplement company EAS.
688
0:20:05,591 --> 0:20:05,832
Jason Salinas: Okay.
689
0:20:06,485 --> 0:20:06,565
Speaker 1: Yeah.
690
0:20:06,585 --> 0:20:08,933
Speaker 1: So he based it all around a 12 week
691
0:20:08,953 --> 0:20:09,515
Speaker 1: transformation.
692
0:20:09,625 --> 0:20:10,910
Speaker 1: So a lot of the same principles I kind of
693
0:20:10,930 --> 0:20:11,292
Speaker 1: copied.
694
0:20:11,785 --> 0:20:13,030
Speaker 1: Some of his stuff was a little bit extreme
695
0:20:13,070 --> 0:20:14,569
Speaker 1: for beginners, but I took kind of the same
696
0:20:14,609 --> 0:20:14,970
Speaker 1: principle.
697
0:20:15,345 --> 0:20:16,851
Speaker 1: You know, six days on, start them out with
698
0:20:16,951 --> 0:20:18,208
Speaker 1: one free day, start them out with basically
699
0:20:18,228 --> 0:20:19,568
Speaker 1: a breakfast, lunch and a dinner, a couple
700
0:20:19,588 --> 0:20:21,268
Speaker 1: of snacks in there, and then gradually
701
0:20:21,309 --> 0:20:22,947
Speaker 1: build up the progressions of their workouts
702
0:20:23,047 --> 0:20:25,946
Speaker 1: and then meet with them once a week not
703
0:20:26,046 --> 0:20:27,486
Speaker 1: once a month or once a between us, but once
704
0:20:27,506 --> 0:20:29,192
Speaker 1: a week to check in and see how their stats
705
0:20:29,212 --> 0:20:30,369
Speaker 1: are going so the coaching can come in.
706
0:20:30,945 --> 0:20:32,490
Speaker 1: So I took that model and was very
707
0:20:32,530 --> 0:20:33,192
Speaker 1: successful with it.
708
0:20:33,212 --> 0:20:34,527
Speaker 1: Next thing, you know, I started doing these
709
0:20:34,547 --> 0:20:36,507
Speaker 1: 90 day transformations when I went to
710
0:20:36,567 --> 0:20:38,666
Speaker 1: manage the Roseville 24, and they said you
711
0:20:38,707 --> 0:20:39,731
Speaker 1: can't train clients anymore.
712
0:20:40,285 --> 0:20:41,470
Speaker 1: That's when I said, okay, I got to teach
713
0:20:41,490 --> 0:20:43,010
Speaker 1: these guys to do exactly what I'm doing.
714
0:20:43,225 --> 0:20:44,390
Speaker 1: And I said if you don't want people to come
715
0:20:44,410 --> 0:20:46,131
Speaker 1: in and train with me, you got to get your
716
0:20:46,172 --> 0:20:47,550
Speaker 1: clients before and after pictures of person
717
0:20:47,585 --> 0:20:48,369
Speaker 1: that go who trained that person.
718
0:20:48,865 --> 0:20:49,689
Speaker 1: That's who I want to train with.
719
0:20:50,225 --> 0:20:51,290
Speaker 1: Next thing, you know, you'd walk in that
720
0:20:51,330 --> 0:20:53,171
Speaker 1: gym and we had a wall of before and afters.
721
0:20:53,565 --> 0:20:55,708
Speaker 1: That were all the trainers, and so we were
722
0:20:55,728 --> 0:20:58,134
Speaker 1: the first gym to do 100,000 personal
723
0:20:58,155 --> 0:20:58,656
Speaker 1: training revenue.
724
0:20:59,969 --> 0:21:00,932
Speaker 1: So yeah, that was 2000.
725
0:21:01,413 --> 0:21:05,972
Jason Salinas: Yeah, so your office is in Roseville and
726
0:21:06,113 --> 0:21:09,951
Jason Salinas: it's 20 years and you and I were talking at
727
0:21:09,971 --> 0:21:11,134
Jason Salinas: the end of the workout.
728
0:21:12,225 --> 0:21:16,035
Jason Salinas: It hasn't necessarily all been wine and
729
0:21:16,095 --> 0:21:16,597
Jason Salinas: roses.
730
0:21:16,705 --> 0:21:18,471
Jason Salinas: It hasn't been like straight up hill and to
731
0:21:18,491 --> 0:21:19,154
Jason Salinas: the right right.
732
0:21:19,426 --> 0:21:20,410
Jason Salinas: You've had your ups and downs.
733
0:21:20,845 --> 0:21:23,111
Jason Salinas: Maybe you share with us a big win story
734
0:21:23,151 --> 0:21:24,134
Jason Salinas: that came after.
735
0:21:25,306 --> 0:21:26,591
Jason Salinas: That required some of that perseverance
736
0:21:26,705 --> 0:21:27,648
Jason Salinas: that we talked about at the beginning of
737
0:21:27,669 --> 0:21:28,251
Jason Salinas: the show.
738
0:21:28,492 --> 0:21:31,333
Speaker 1: Yeah Well, you know what happened with 24
739
0:21:31,373 --> 0:21:32,549
Speaker 1: hours, some people, what made you leave
740
0:21:32,569 --> 0:21:33,372
Speaker 1: there if it was so good?
741
0:21:33,845 --> 0:21:36,434
Speaker 1: I rode that ride for probably three or four
742
0:21:36,474 --> 0:21:38,291
Speaker 1: years, got up to where I think my third or
743
0:21:38,331 --> 0:21:40,350
Speaker 1: fourth year is about 87,000, and once again
744
0:21:40,390 --> 0:21:40,952
Speaker 1: at 22,.
745
0:21:41,333 --> 0:21:41,815
Speaker 1: That's a lot.
746
0:21:41,965 --> 0:21:43,472
Speaker 1: So then there had always been a position
747
0:21:43,565 --> 0:21:45,206
Speaker 1: called area director of fitness, where now
748
0:21:45,246 --> 0:21:46,872
Speaker 1: you go around train the managers and
749
0:21:46,892 --> 0:21:47,474
Speaker 1: trainers in the area.
750
0:21:47,665 --> 0:21:48,388
Speaker 1: So I kept shooting for that.
751
0:21:49,005 --> 0:21:49,909
Speaker 1: Bring this position back.
752
0:21:50,365 --> 0:21:52,107
Speaker 1: I started hosting meetings once a month,
753
0:21:52,345 --> 0:21:53,689
Speaker 1: bringing the local gyms to my gym.
754
0:21:54,110 --> 0:21:55,771
Speaker 1: We'd have a motivational speaker in, we'd
755
0:21:55,791 --> 0:21:57,531
Speaker 1: give out awards, not just for sales but for
756
0:21:57,571 --> 0:21:59,257
Speaker 1: who've gotten results, t-shirts, get
757
0:21:59,277 --> 0:21:59,819
Speaker 1: everybody fired up.
758
0:22:00,050 --> 0:22:01,398
Speaker 1: And I was basically creating that, just
759
0:22:01,418 --> 0:22:01,921
Speaker 1: without the pay.
760
0:22:02,484 --> 0:22:03,430
Speaker 1: And this one manager kept going.
761
0:22:03,450 --> 0:22:04,414
Speaker 1: Well, we need to see what you can do at
762
0:22:04,434 --> 0:22:04,936
Speaker 1: another club.
763
0:22:05,070 --> 0:22:06,710
Speaker 1: I said I basically started this one with
764
0:22:06,731 --> 0:22:07,936
Speaker 1: all the systems from Ground Up.
765
0:22:08,010 --> 0:22:08,693
Speaker 1: It's the number one club.
766
0:22:09,230 --> 0:22:10,475
Speaker 1: Anywhere I go, I'm gonna take a pick up.
767
0:22:10,495 --> 0:22:11,077
Speaker 1: Why would I do that?
768
0:22:11,350 --> 0:22:13,457
Speaker 1: So after just kind of going through riding
769
0:22:13,477 --> 0:22:15,153
Speaker 1: the motions, I show up one day and they go.
770
0:22:15,173 --> 0:22:17,492
Speaker 1: You're going to downtown and I'm like
771
0:22:17,532 --> 0:22:19,379
Speaker 1: downtown already I'm taking a pick up.
772
0:22:19,430 --> 0:22:20,432
Speaker 1: They're doing less revenue than us.
773
0:22:20,953 --> 0:22:21,715
Speaker 1: I have to go down there.
774
0:22:21,735 --> 0:22:22,717
Speaker 1: I just said you know what?
775
0:22:22,737 --> 0:22:23,840
Speaker 1: Put your head down and go to work, show
776
0:22:23,860 --> 0:22:24,361
Speaker 1: them what you can do.
777
0:22:24,441 --> 0:22:25,183
Speaker 1: So I go downtown.
778
0:22:25,410 --> 0:22:26,394
Speaker 1: I'm commuting from Lincoln every day.
779
0:22:26,434 --> 0:22:28,691
Speaker 1: Now I have to fire the entire staff because
780
0:22:28,711 --> 0:22:29,618
Speaker 1: they're all training under the table.
781
0:22:30,170 --> 0:22:32,390
Speaker 1: Rebuilt the staff up, double the revenue in
782
0:22:32,491 --> 0:22:33,731
Speaker 1: one year from what they were doing and they
783
0:22:33,751 --> 0:22:33,851
Speaker 1: go.
784
0:22:34,293 --> 0:22:34,835
Speaker 1: They just did a.
785
0:22:35,410 --> 0:22:38,078
Speaker 1: They're doing a compensation cut to all the
786
0:22:38,138 --> 0:22:38,519
Speaker 1: management.
787
0:22:39,050 --> 0:22:40,476
Speaker 1: So I said I want to go back to Roseville.
788
0:22:41,010 --> 0:22:42,497
Speaker 1: So they said, nope, you can't.
789
0:22:42,650 --> 0:22:43,755
Speaker 1: Only way you can go back to Roseville is
790
0:22:44,070 --> 0:22:45,455
Speaker 1: you step down and become a trainer again.
791
0:22:46,310 --> 0:22:47,635
Speaker 1: So talk about Slaw and your pride.
792
0:22:48,257 --> 0:22:48,939
Speaker 1: I said that's what I'll do.
793
0:22:49,190 --> 0:22:51,178
Speaker 1: So I literally had to go back to the gym
794
0:22:51,230 --> 0:22:52,896
Speaker 1: that I created, with all the staff that I
795
0:22:52,936 --> 0:22:53,156
Speaker 1: built.
796
0:22:53,196 --> 0:22:54,511
Speaker 1: That made the number one gym, and now I'm
797
0:22:54,531 --> 0:22:55,616
Speaker 1: just an average trainer amongst the
798
0:22:55,656 --> 0:22:57,335
Speaker 1: trainers that I hired, with some guy
799
0:22:57,376 --> 0:22:58,975
Speaker 1: managing me that doesn't know anything.
800
0:22:59,250 --> 0:23:01,958
Speaker 1: So I just went, just buckled down, built my
801
0:23:01,998 --> 0:23:03,854
Speaker 1: clientele, slowly started working them out
802
0:23:03,875 --> 0:23:05,735
Speaker 1: of there, and it took me about probably
803
0:23:05,795 --> 0:23:07,695
Speaker 1: eight months till I got a full load out of
804
0:23:07,715 --> 0:23:10,097
Speaker 1: there and a trainer who once trained for me
805
0:23:10,230 --> 0:23:11,736
Speaker 1: had opened his own little gym, tiny little
806
0:23:11,756 --> 0:23:13,034
Speaker 1: spot, maybe 1,000 square foot.
807
0:23:13,470 --> 0:23:14,935
Speaker 1: I said, hey, can I come and train at your
808
0:23:14,955 --> 0:23:15,096
Speaker 1: gym?
809
0:23:15,116 --> 0:23:16,632
Speaker 1: He says, all right, I didn't really know
810
0:23:16,652 --> 0:23:18,074
Speaker 1: what to pay, so I was paying him 10 bucks a
811
0:23:18,114 --> 0:23:18,395
Speaker 1: session.
812
0:23:18,530 --> 0:23:20,598
Speaker 1: So I had almost 40 hours a week.
813
0:23:20,750 --> 0:23:22,898
Speaker 1: I was paying him almost $1,600 a month rent.
814
0:23:23,030 --> 0:23:24,496
Speaker 1: I mean, that's pretty crazy, even back then
815
0:23:24,590 --> 0:23:25,795
Speaker 1: to think now what I would charge somebody.
816
0:23:26,350 --> 0:23:27,394
Speaker 1: So I was probably paying him more than he
817
0:23:27,434 --> 0:23:28,097
Speaker 1: was making training.
818
0:23:28,550 --> 0:23:30,811
Speaker 1: So I did that for about a year and in the
819
0:23:30,851 --> 0:23:33,579
Speaker 1: meantime, before I went to downtown, I
820
0:23:33,599 --> 0:23:34,161
Speaker 1: purchased a home.
821
0:23:34,350 --> 0:23:35,816
Speaker 1: So I'm gonna refinance, I'm open my own gym,
822
0:23:36,050 --> 0:23:36,954
Speaker 1: I'm just gonna do it.
823
0:23:37,671 --> 0:23:40,099
Speaker 1: And so, reconnected with a buddy of mine,
824
0:23:40,451 --> 0:23:41,796
Speaker 1: and so we had opened SMB Elite.
825
0:23:41,910 --> 0:23:45,019
Speaker 1: This is Konami's Boomin 2003, 2004.
826
0:23:45,790 --> 0:23:47,591
Speaker 1: And I mean it's funny to think we just kind
827
0:23:47,611 --> 0:23:49,798
Speaker 1: of just jumped in and had no fear, jumped
828
0:23:49,818 --> 0:23:51,716
Speaker 1: right in and within first three, four
829
0:23:51,756 --> 0:23:54,544
Speaker 1: months we were doing more than 24,000,
830
0:23:54,630 --> 0:23:55,514
Speaker 1: 40,000 square foot.
831
0:23:55,554 --> 0:23:57,895
Speaker 1: Roseville was doing out of a 2,600 square
832
0:23:57,915 --> 0:23:59,179
Speaker 1: foot office facility in Rockland.
833
0:23:59,850 --> 0:24:00,955
Speaker 1: We had about 10 of our trainers that
834
0:24:00,995 --> 0:24:02,494
Speaker 1: followed over and we're just killing it
835
0:24:03,930 --> 0:24:06,553
Speaker 1: Really over, expanded, probably did some
836
0:24:06,593 --> 0:24:07,717
Speaker 1: things that we probably shouldn't have done,
837
0:24:08,570 --> 0:24:09,774
Speaker 1: and then all of a sudden used to start to
838
0:24:09,814 --> 0:24:12,515
Speaker 1: see the change in the economy and so we
839
0:24:12,535 --> 0:24:13,592
Speaker 1: start to look and go man, we're just
840
0:24:13,632 --> 0:24:14,636
Speaker 1: feeding these clients, but they're not
841
0:24:14,656 --> 0:24:15,552
Speaker 1: retaining them, they're not bringing
842
0:24:15,572 --> 0:24:16,174
Speaker 1: anybody new in.
843
0:24:16,535 --> 0:24:18,494
Speaker 1: And so it's kind of like, hey, we're gonna
844
0:24:18,514 --> 0:24:19,678
Speaker 1: take them to start training them on ourself
845
0:24:19,698 --> 0:24:20,873
Speaker 1: again, cause we got to where we were hardly
846
0:24:20,893 --> 0:24:21,275
Speaker 1: even training.
847
0:24:22,010 --> 0:24:25,499
Speaker 1: And so some, some things happened with my
848
0:24:25,539 --> 0:24:27,022
Speaker 1: partner and I it wasn't necessarily with me,
849
0:24:27,110 --> 0:24:29,056
Speaker 1: it was who, he who had financially backed
850
0:24:29,096 --> 0:24:29,236
Speaker 1: him.
851
0:24:29,818 --> 0:24:30,891
Speaker 1: They were like hey, you know where's our
852
0:24:30,911 --> 0:24:33,415
Speaker 1: investment on our loan, and so he decided
853
0:24:33,435 --> 0:24:33,736
Speaker 1: to leave.
854
0:24:34,290 --> 0:24:37,119
Speaker 1: Smb was kind of taking this toll and
855
0:24:37,259 --> 0:24:38,633
Speaker 1: downward spiral and I was like man, what am
856
0:24:38,673 --> 0:24:39,015
Speaker 1: I gonna do?
857
0:24:39,090 --> 0:24:40,535
Speaker 1: I still got a handful of trainers here that
858
0:24:40,776 --> 0:24:42,795
Speaker 1: I'm gonna feed, but are we gonna be able to
859
0:24:42,815 --> 0:24:43,136
Speaker 1: stay here?
860
0:24:43,290 --> 0:24:45,458
Speaker 1: Our rent was 16,000 a month in Rockland
861
0:24:45,478 --> 0:24:47,375
Speaker 1: during that time for 2,600 square feet.
862
0:24:48,070 --> 0:24:48,432
Speaker 1: All right we had.
863
0:24:48,472 --> 0:24:50,151
Speaker 1: We had some shady stuff done on our, on our
864
0:24:50,211 --> 0:24:51,275
Speaker 1: lease that our landlord wasn't.
865
0:24:51,455 --> 0:24:53,313
Speaker 1: We were unwilling to fix and so I was like
866
0:24:53,333 --> 0:24:54,372
Speaker 1: we're not gonna pay anymore, we'll have to
867
0:24:54,412 --> 0:24:54,796
Speaker 1: go somewhere else.
868
0:24:55,550 --> 0:24:57,757
Speaker 1: So I had a good friend and client.
869
0:24:57,958 --> 0:24:58,820
Speaker 1: I'll never forget this.
870
0:24:58,970 --> 0:25:01,538
Speaker 1: This was a turning point for me and I'm so
871
0:25:01,618 --> 0:25:02,140
Speaker 1: grateful for them.
872
0:25:02,230 --> 0:25:04,450
Speaker 1: But I can remember them saying hey, we'll
873
0:25:04,471 --> 0:25:05,335
Speaker 1: help get a building for you.
874
0:25:05,590 --> 0:25:06,446
Speaker 1: You know, we know you're not gonna be able
875
0:25:06,466 --> 0:25:06,609
Speaker 1: to hear.
876
0:25:06,670 --> 0:25:07,172
Speaker 1: Let's look around.
877
0:25:08,270 --> 0:25:10,035
Speaker 1: So we started looking around and we find
878
0:25:10,075 --> 0:25:11,178
Speaker 1: something over by Rockland High School.
879
0:25:11,198 --> 0:25:12,101
Speaker 1: It's a thousand square foot.
880
0:25:12,190 --> 0:25:14,338
Speaker 1: I'm as excited as I could be looking back.
881
0:25:14,470 --> 0:25:15,655
Speaker 1: I'd have never fit in a thousand square
882
0:25:15,695 --> 0:25:17,952
Speaker 1: foot but I was excited Him and I go to

Speaker 1: I'm all excited and I get a fortune cookie.
889
0:25:28,513 --> 0:25:29,907
Speaker 1: And the fortune cookie says don't do what
890
0:25:29,927 --> 0:25:30,793
Speaker 1: you can't do on your own.
891

0:25:36,778 --> 0:25:38,309
Speaker 1: It was a Friday, so I don't say anything to

Speaker 1: I mean I got the cash.
907
0:25:58,670 --> 0:25:59,775
Speaker 1: I go over there, right there, peeking the
908
0:25:59,835 --> 0:26:01,451
Speaker 1: window, and it's a bunch of cubbies it must
909
0:26:01,471 --> 0:26:02,792
Speaker 1: have been a mortgage office and they just
910
0:26:03,033 --> 0:26:04,051
Speaker 1: it was like boiler room, they just
911
0:26:04,071 --> 0:26:04,694
Speaker 1: scattered out of there.
912
0:26:04,990 --> 0:26:06,496
Speaker 1: But I could just see the vision of that box.
913
0:26:07,030 --> 0:26:07,975
Speaker 1: So I call, I said hey, I'll take.
914
0:26:08,030 --> 0:26:09,115
Speaker 1: They're like well, the owner is not in
915
0:26:09,135 --> 0:26:09,657
Speaker 1: until Tuesday.
916
0:26:09,750 --> 0:26:10,894
Speaker 1: I gotta be out of my place at Wednesday.
917
0:26:11,476 --> 0:26:12,118
Speaker 1: I'll be there Tuesday.
918
0:26:12,410 --> 0:26:13,951
Speaker 1: So I show up and he's just real lacks of
919
0:26:13,972 --> 0:26:14,112
Speaker 1: days.
920
0:26:14,172 --> 0:26:14,916
Speaker 1: It will take me through.
921
0:26:14,990 --> 0:26:16,135
Speaker 1: I said I want this place.
922
0:26:16,230 --> 0:26:17,313
Speaker 1: I'm like how fast can you get these cubbies
923
0:26:17,333 --> 0:26:17,634
Speaker 1: out of here?
924
0:26:17,714 --> 0:26:18,336
Speaker 1: Here's the cash.
925
0:26:20,550 --> 0:26:21,768
Speaker 1: So I literally a couple buddies who moved
926
0:26:21,789 --> 0:26:22,780
Speaker 1: over, and so that was because I thought
927
0:26:22,800 --> 0:26:24,660
Speaker 1: literally I was going to lose everything at
928
0:26:24,681 --> 0:26:27,085
Speaker 1: that point in time, from having this high
929
0:26:27,105 --> 0:26:28,413
Speaker 1: to a low and we get in there and then it's
930
0:26:28,433 --> 0:26:29,235
Speaker 1: just grinding it out.
931
0:26:31,051 --> 0:26:32,681
Speaker 1: By that point now I'm starting to go
932
0:26:32,721 --> 0:26:35,067
Speaker 1: through this divorce, but I at least got my
933
0:26:35,087 --> 0:26:36,193
Speaker 1: own place and so just the momentum kind of
934
0:26:36,213 --> 0:26:38,953
Speaker 1: slowly started building up, energy started
935
0:26:38,973 --> 0:26:41,209
Speaker 1: changing, things kind of got bigger and
936
0:26:41,229 --> 0:26:42,815
Speaker 1: bigger and my model kind of changed with
937
0:26:42,835 --> 0:26:43,075
Speaker 1: time.
938
0:26:44,610 --> 0:26:46,436
Speaker 1: I opened up my self as part of my spiritual
939
0:26:46,456 --> 0:26:48,254
Speaker 1: career, cause it had to be about acting.
940
0:26:49,594 --> 0:26:50,960
Speaker 1: I mean, I wasしま packed with that grown-ups.
941
0:26:52,137 --> 0:26:53,449
Speaker 1: So far I have gotten more than one to 10.
942
0:26:53,469 --> 0:26:55,456
Speaker 1: Bandar McKinney she was really in for that
943
0:26:55,476 --> 0:26:58,923
Speaker 1: role and this is a place where I worked on
944
0:26:58,943 --> 0:26:59,993
Speaker 1: my own cycle and I worked on my own много파
945
0:27:00,013 --> 0:27:00,414
Speaker 1: and for Revolution.
946
0:27:00,434 --> 0:27:03,076
Speaker 1: It was also my skills I started out.
947
0:27:04,091 --> 0:27:06,230
Speaker 1: My goal when I was 18 were about 10 to 22.
948
0:27:06,310 --> 0:27:08,061
Speaker 1: And that was when I got started with that
949
0:27:08,081 --> 0:27:08,806
Speaker 1: one account, because I got hired at
950
0:27:08,826 --> 0:27:11,576
Speaker 1: circuits and I was like I hope I money in
951
0:27:11,596 --> 0:27:12,660
Speaker 1: doing this business.
952
0:27:12,830 --> 0:27:14,316
Speaker 1: I was able to double my clientele and
953
0:27:14,336 --> 0:27:15,774
Speaker 1: double my income by putting people together,
954
0:27:16,250 --> 0:27:17,735
Speaker 1: keeping the session rate down a little bit
955
0:27:17,776 --> 0:27:17,956
Speaker 1: lower.
956
0:27:18,770 --> 0:27:20,411
Speaker 1: And so then I said you know what I always
957
0:27:20,431 --> 0:27:22,650
Speaker 1: had a vision of taking my small gym and
958
0:27:22,670 --> 0:27:25,131
Speaker 1: making it a private 24 access gym where now
959
0:27:25,171 --> 0:27:26,772
Speaker 1: people can come in, you know, have a super
960
0:27:26,792 --> 0:27:27,294
Speaker 1: clean gym.
961
0:27:28,010 --> 0:27:29,295
Speaker 1: If they're not training with me, they'll
962
0:27:29,315 --> 0:27:30,533
Speaker 1: see what's going on and maybe they'll want
963
0:27:30,553 --> 0:27:30,894
Speaker 1: to train.
964
0:27:31,130 --> 0:27:32,590
Speaker 1: If they've trained with me long enough and
965
0:27:32,610 --> 0:27:33,795
Speaker 1: they're like man, I can't do this anymore.
966
0:27:34,150 --> 0:27:35,536
Speaker 1: But I don't want to leave this environment.
967
0:27:35,590 --> 0:27:37,236
Speaker 1: It's really, you know, a family-like
968
0:27:37,276 --> 0:27:37,678
Speaker 1: environment.
969
0:27:37,950 --> 0:27:39,095
Speaker 1: They can switch over to the membership and
970
0:27:39,155 --> 0:27:41,054
Speaker 1: still be there and still feel like they've
971
0:27:41,074 --> 0:27:41,737
Speaker 1: got that connection.
972
0:27:42,050 --> 0:27:43,315
Jason Salinas: Well, I have been over there.
973
0:27:43,375 --> 0:27:43,878
Jason Salinas: Super nice.
974
0:27:43,950 --> 0:27:45,697
Jason Salinas: It's over in Roseville, kind of not too far
975
0:27:46,191 --> 0:27:48,319
Jason Salinas: from where I had my paper route as a kid,
976
0:27:48,510 --> 0:27:52,537
Jason Salinas: in fact right there, and it's a really nice
977
0:27:52,717 --> 0:27:53,119
Jason Salinas: gym.
978
0:27:53,430 --> 0:27:53,873
Jason Salinas: What is it about?
979
0:27:53,913 --> 0:27:56,428
Jason Salinas: 4,000 square feet, 3600 square feet, 3600
980
0:27:56,448 --> 0:27:58,617
Jason Salinas: square feet, and it's right there near the
981
0:27:58,637 --> 0:27:58,898
Jason Salinas: freeway.
982
0:27:59,010 --> 0:28:00,114
Jason Salinas: So, no matter where you're coming from,
983
0:28:00,154 --> 0:28:01,078
Jason Salinas: it's pretty easy to get there.
984
0:28:01,270 --> 0:28:03,258
Jason Salinas: It's I guess it'd be the Riverside exit,
985
0:28:04,570 --> 0:28:06,336
Jason Salinas: off Melody Lane or on Melody Lane.
986
0:28:07,190 --> 0:28:10,652
Jason Salinas: I'm going to switch gears a little bit and
987
0:28:11,495 --> 0:28:12,378
Jason Salinas: talk a little bit.
988
0:28:12,650 --> 0:28:15,059
Jason Salinas: I want to maybe go a little bit deeper here.
989
0:28:15,852 --> 0:28:18,539
Jason Salinas: As I mentioned earlier, I've known you for
990
0:28:18,600 --> 0:28:19,141
Jason Salinas: a long time.
991
0:28:19,250 --> 0:28:22,960
Jason Salinas: I never really knew your story.
992
0:28:24,390 --> 0:28:25,636
Jason Salinas: I'm one of these you know.
993
0:28:25,730 --> 0:28:28,217
Jason Salinas: So I married into your family.
994
0:28:28,297 --> 0:28:29,601
Jason Salinas: Basically is what happened.
995
0:28:29,710 --> 0:28:34,353
Jason Salinas: And so your mom, let's see, yeah, your mom
996
0:28:34,433 --> 0:28:37,315
Jason Salinas: is my, your grandma is my mother-in-law's
997
0:28:37,435 --> 0:28:38,238
Jason Salinas: sister, right?
998
0:28:38,330 --> 0:28:40,518
Jason Salinas: So I knew you, but I didn't know you.
999
0:28:40,950 --> 0:28:44,078
Jason Salinas: But I knew that there had been maybe some
1000
0:28:44,178 --> 0:28:48,678
Jason Salinas: trouble in your family or with you
1001
0:28:48,758 --> 0:28:50,954
Jason Salinas: potentially, but I never really knew it.
1002
0:28:50,994 --> 0:28:51,918
Jason Salinas: I asked my wife, stacey.
1003
0:28:52,050 --> 0:28:53,717
Jason Salinas: She didn't seem to know that the story.
1004
0:28:53,870 --> 0:28:57,171
Jason Salinas: And recently you had sent me a video that
1005
0:28:57,231 --> 0:28:59,958
Jason Salinas: had you talking to the Sacramento
1006
0:29:00,039 --> 0:29:03,356
Jason Salinas: Children's Home, and that's when sort of
1007
0:29:03,376 --> 0:29:06,774
Jason Salinas: the light bulb went off for me and so maybe
1008
0:29:07,716 --> 0:29:09,641
Jason Salinas: tell the story if you don't mind.
1009
0:29:09,950 --> 0:29:12,617
Jason Salinas: You've started a charity more recently
1010
0:29:13,178 --> 0:29:17,837
Jason Salinas: Kicks for Kids, and you give out shoes to
1011
0:29:18,760 --> 0:29:22,159
Jason Salinas: deserving children, under privileged kids,
1012
0:29:22,590 --> 0:29:27,330
Jason Salinas: and but you lied when you were eight and
1013
0:29:27,370 --> 0:29:31,517
Jason Salinas: that led to probably a lot of this hustlers,
1014
0:29:31,598 --> 0:29:33,717
Jason Salinas: scrappiness, perseverance type of person
1015
0:29:33,757 --> 0:29:34,580
Jason Salinas: that you are.
1016
0:29:35,021 --> 0:29:36,245
Jason Salinas: I have to imagine it did.
1017
0:29:36,615 --> 0:29:37,740
Jason Salinas: Something happened when you were about
1018
0:29:37,981 --> 0:29:42,164
Jason Salinas: eight and that had to just like shape
1019
0:29:42,285 --> 0:29:43,227
Jason Salinas: everything differently.
1020
0:29:43,835 --> 0:29:45,481
Speaker 1: Yeah, you know so my mom and dad.
1021
0:29:46,075 --> 0:29:47,340
Speaker 1: They divorced when I was real young.
1022
0:29:48,175 --> 0:29:50,081
Speaker 1: From what I've heard, they had a amicable
1023
0:29:50,422 --> 0:29:51,605
Speaker 1: early relationship.
1024
0:29:52,597 --> 0:29:53,680
Speaker 1: My dad then remarried.
1025
0:29:53,860 --> 0:29:56,697
Speaker 1: I was probably around three or four and he
1026
0:29:56,737 --> 0:29:58,698
Speaker 1: actually got full custody of me and so,
1027
0:29:59,200 --> 0:30:00,917
Speaker 1: living with him full time, I saw my mom
1028
0:30:00,957 --> 0:30:01,700
Speaker 1: every other weekend.
1029
0:30:02,635 --> 0:30:04,722
Speaker 1: This relationship with my dad and his new
1030
0:30:04,782 --> 0:30:07,862
Speaker 1: wife started out real nice and then it kind
1031
0:30:07,902 --> 0:30:10,361
Speaker 1: of grew into something that was a little
1032
0:30:10,381 --> 0:30:10,662
Speaker 1: different.
1033
0:30:10,755 --> 0:30:11,720
Speaker 1: It was almost two-sided.
1034
0:30:12,075 --> 0:30:14,102
Speaker 1: When he was home, everything was great,
1035
0:30:14,142 --> 0:30:15,959
Speaker 1: dinner was made, there was hoping with
1036
0:30:15,979 --> 0:30:16,340
Speaker 1: homework.
1037
0:30:16,661 --> 0:30:18,199
Speaker 1: When he was gone, he was a firefighter, so
1038
0:30:18,219 --> 0:30:19,818
Speaker 1: he worked 24 hours shifts, one day on, one
1039
0:30:19,838 --> 0:30:20,119
Speaker 1: day off.
1040
0:30:20,555 --> 0:30:22,423
Speaker 1: When he was gone, this stepmother of mine
1041
0:30:22,515 --> 0:30:24,877
Speaker 1: was just a different person, took out a lot
1042
0:30:24,897 --> 0:30:26,637
Speaker 1: of her anger from me, being from something
1043
0:30:26,737 --> 0:30:27,782
Speaker 1: else on me.
1044
0:30:28,255 --> 0:30:30,463
Speaker 1: It was very abusive, physically, mentally.
1045
0:30:30,715 --> 0:30:32,422
Speaker 1: I mean did a lot of different weird things.
1046
0:30:32,555 --> 0:30:34,743
Speaker 1: I mean from making me eat certain foods at
1047
0:30:34,783 --> 0:30:35,798
Speaker 1: night, I couldn't leave till the dinner
1048
0:30:35,818 --> 0:30:37,277
Speaker 1: table was gone, right, you know, I wouldn't
1049
0:30:37,297 --> 0:30:37,860
Speaker 1: be able to go to sleep.
1050
0:30:38,175 --> 0:30:40,042
Speaker 1: Gizzards and Brussels I mean just weird
1051
0:30:40,263 --> 0:30:40,484
Speaker 1: things.
1052
0:30:40,615 --> 0:30:41,479
Mark Haney: I looked back.
1053
0:30:41,499 --> 0:30:43,599
Speaker 1: I was a kid, yes, and so you know I can
1054
0:30:43,619 --> 0:30:44,936
Speaker 1: remember sitting there at midnight bobbing
1055
0:30:44,976 --> 0:30:45,659
Speaker 1: my head at the table.
1056
0:30:45,679 --> 0:30:47,380
Speaker 1: I'd finally shove it in my jam of pants and
1057
0:30:47,400 --> 0:30:48,457
Speaker 1: then go to the bathroom and throw it out
1058
0:30:48,477 --> 0:30:49,421
Speaker 1: and I'd eat it all at night.
1059
0:30:49,735 --> 0:30:51,361
Speaker 1: I mean just different little mental things.
1060
0:30:52,475 --> 0:30:54,563
Speaker 1: And no one really ever knew of the abuse.
1061
0:30:54,655 --> 0:30:55,257
Speaker 1: I never said anything.
1062
0:30:55,277 --> 0:30:58,237
Speaker 1: When I came to my mom's house, I'm sure my
1063
0:30:58,277 --> 0:31:00,003
Speaker 1: grandma, being as in tune as she was,
1064
0:31:00,175 --> 0:31:01,981
Speaker 1: always thought something.
1065
0:31:02,001 --> 0:31:03,024
Speaker 1: She just didn't want to push me.
1066
0:31:03,335 --> 0:31:04,479
Speaker 1: You know she'd.
1067
0:31:04,519 --> 0:31:05,804
Speaker 1: Yeah, you know how are you okay?
1068
0:31:06,055 --> 0:31:08,444
Speaker 1: And I know as I'm older now and I look back,
1069
0:31:08,916 --> 0:31:10,281
Speaker 1: it's looking into her eyes she knew
1070
0:31:10,362 --> 0:31:10,944
Speaker 1: something was going on.
1071
0:31:10,975 --> 0:31:12,782
Speaker 1: She just wasn't, you know, gonna push on it.
1072
0:31:13,475 --> 0:31:15,956
Speaker 1: And so this went on for a couple years and
1073
0:31:16,678 --> 0:31:19,345
Speaker 1: it got to a point where I showed up one
1074
0:31:19,385 --> 0:31:21,179
Speaker 1: night home from visitation.
1075
0:31:21,219 --> 0:31:22,222
Speaker 1: Actually my grandma dropped me off.
1076
0:31:22,755 --> 0:31:23,860
Speaker 1: Her and my stepmom had kind of gotten a
1077
0:31:23,880 --> 0:31:24,997
Speaker 1: little altercation because we were just a
1078
0:31:25,037 --> 0:31:26,337
Speaker 1: little bit late and I remember them
1079
0:31:26,357 --> 0:31:28,896
Speaker 1: screaming back and forth at each other and
1080
0:31:28,917 --> 0:31:31,080
Speaker 1: I went in the house and she says go get the
1081
0:31:31,120 --> 0:31:31,341
Speaker 1: mop.
1082
0:31:31,635 --> 0:31:34,124
Speaker 1: And back then the mops that you would claim
1083
0:31:34,144 --> 0:31:35,077
Speaker 1: floors with were heavy duty.
1084
0:31:35,098 --> 0:31:36,563
Speaker 1: They're not real light like they are now,
1085
0:31:36,615 --> 0:31:37,740
Speaker 1: and they have to squeegee on the bottom.
1086
0:31:38,396 --> 0:31:40,235
Speaker 1: And so I remember hitting me with that, you
1087
0:31:40,255 --> 0:31:41,480
Speaker 1: know, probably 10, 15 times.
1088
0:31:41,520 --> 0:31:42,323
Speaker 1: She said go get your belt.
1089
0:31:42,615 --> 0:31:44,723
Speaker 1: And I had a leather belt like the firemen's
1090
0:31:44,743 --> 0:31:47,042
Speaker 1: wore, with about a two pound fire engine
1091
0:31:47,062 --> 0:31:47,483
Speaker 1: belt buckle.
1092
0:31:48,176 --> 0:31:50,116
Speaker 1: Hit me with that probably 10, 15 times and
1093
0:31:50,136 --> 0:31:50,819
Speaker 1: my dad happened to call.
1094
0:31:51,155 --> 0:31:52,240
Speaker 1: She says you need to come home.
1095
0:31:52,655 --> 0:31:54,321
Speaker 1: Jason's been beaten real bad by his mom and
1096
0:31:54,341 --> 0:31:54,582
Speaker 1: grandma.
1097
0:31:55,435 --> 0:31:57,115
Speaker 1: So now in the next 20 minutes have
1098
0:31:57,155 --> 0:31:59,203
Speaker 1: concocted this whole story of what had
1099
0:31:59,223 --> 0:31:59,584
Speaker 1: happened to me.
1100
0:31:59,655 --> 0:32:00,659
Speaker 1: So they took me to the hospital.
1101
0:32:01,715 --> 0:32:03,201
Speaker 1: Police came, interviewed me at the hospital,
1102
0:32:03,755 --> 0:32:06,036
Speaker 1: sent me home with my dad and my stepmom and
1103
0:32:06,056 --> 0:32:07,516
Speaker 1: then, of course, the next day they said hey,
1104
0:32:07,837 --> 0:32:08,901
Speaker 1: you know, we want to bring you back down
1105
0:32:08,921 --> 0:32:09,644
Speaker 1: for some more questioning.
1106
0:32:09,775 --> 0:32:10,900
Speaker 1: In the meantime they'd already had my mom,
1107
0:32:11,095 --> 0:32:12,781
Speaker 1: grandma, grandpa, interviewed them, lie
1108
0:32:12,801 --> 0:32:14,098
Speaker 1: detector test and they knew that they
1109
0:32:14,118 --> 0:32:14,539
Speaker 1: didn't do it.
1110
0:32:15,335 --> 0:32:16,781
Speaker 1: So we go to the police station.
1111
0:32:16,821 --> 0:32:18,399
Speaker 1: They say hey, we want to talk to you about
1112
0:32:18,439 --> 0:32:18,499
Speaker 1: it.
1113
0:32:18,579 --> 0:32:19,302
Speaker 1: You want to tell us the truth.
1114
0:32:19,455 --> 0:32:20,580
Speaker 1: I was still going with the same story.
1115
0:32:20,695 --> 0:32:22,420
Speaker 1: Being a seven year old kid, you're scared,
1116
0:32:22,460 --> 0:32:22,761
Speaker 1: you don't you?
1117
0:32:22,781 --> 0:32:22,862
Jason Salinas: know.
1118
0:32:22,882 --> 0:32:23,885
Jason Salinas: Yeah, you don't want to change your story.
1119
0:32:24,337 --> 0:32:24,417
Speaker 1: Yeah.
1120
0:32:24,437 --> 0:32:26,272
Speaker 1: So they say we're going to take you
1121
0:32:26,292 --> 0:32:26,635
Speaker 1: somewhere safe.
1122
0:32:27,983 --> 0:32:29,753
Speaker 1: And so they take me out the back door, put
1123
0:32:29,773 --> 0:32:31,440
Speaker 1: me in a vehicle and they drive me to
1124
0:32:31,480 --> 0:32:32,504
Speaker 1: Sacramento Children's receiving home.
1125
0:32:33,160 --> 0:32:33,925
Jason Salinas: Sacramento Children's receiving home.
1126
0:32:33,945 --> 0:32:34,812
Jason Salinas: Sacramento Children's receiving home, right
1127
0:32:34,832 --> 0:32:35,255
Jason Salinas: there, on what avenue?
1128
0:32:35,295 --> 0:32:38,082
Speaker 1: Yeah, so you show up and as I'm older now I
1129
0:32:38,123 --> 0:32:39,215
Speaker 1: look back when I try to describe to people
1130
0:32:39,215 --> 0:32:39,888
Speaker 1: that first day going in there.
1131
0:32:40,761 --> 0:32:41,853
Speaker 1: It almost reminds you of somebody checking
1132
0:32:41,873 --> 0:32:42,055
Speaker 1: into jail.
1133
0:32:42,217 --> 0:32:43,614
Speaker 1: You know you check in fingerprint.
1134
0:32:43,634 --> 0:32:45,615
Speaker 1: You take your clothes off that you have on,
1135
0:32:46,201 --> 0:32:47,333
Speaker 1: take you into a room, give you a pair of
1136
0:32:47,353 --> 0:32:48,831
Speaker 1: jeans, socks, underwear, everything's used,
1137
0:32:49,777 --> 0:32:51,263
Speaker 1: take you to your little bunk and then there
1138
0:32:51,283 --> 0:32:51,524
Speaker 1: you go.
1139
0:32:52,241 --> 0:32:53,351
Speaker 1: Now most of the kids in the Sacramento
1140
0:32:53,371 --> 0:32:55,571
Speaker 1: Children's receiving home are there maybe a
1141
0:32:55,591 --> 0:32:57,300
Speaker 1: week to two weeks as they transfer in
1142
0:32:57,340 --> 0:32:58,324
Speaker 1: between foster parents.
1143
0:32:58,897 --> 0:33:01,224
Speaker 1: I was there for eight months eight months,
1144
0:33:01,304 --> 0:33:01,825
Speaker 1: two weeks in.
1145
0:33:02,439 --> 0:33:03,973
Speaker 1: I met with a psychiatrist, really got along
1146
0:33:03,993 --> 0:33:05,586
Speaker 1: with him, and it was the first time I was
1147
0:33:05,626 --> 0:33:06,251
Speaker 1: able to open up.
1148
0:33:06,312 --> 0:33:08,609
Speaker 1: Until the truth I said, hey, this has been
1149
0:33:08,629 --> 0:33:09,395
Speaker 1: going on for a long time.
1150
0:33:09,857 --> 0:33:10,761
Speaker 1: I feel safe in here.
1151
0:33:11,257 --> 0:33:12,523
Speaker 1: My stepmom is the one that's been doing
1152
0:33:12,563 --> 0:33:12,724
Speaker 1: this.
1153
0:33:13,065 --> 0:33:14,753
Jason Salinas: And it was you felt safer in there.
1154
0:33:14,773 --> 0:33:16,359
Jason Salinas: I felt safer there, and that's you know.
1155
0:33:16,379 --> 0:33:17,223
Jason Salinas: Yeah, yeah.
1156
0:33:18,081 --> 0:33:19,353
Speaker 1: And I got you know, I got a chance to go
1157
0:33:19,394 --> 0:33:21,153
Speaker 1: back and talk to the kids and I told them,
1158
0:33:21,174 --> 0:33:23,928
Speaker 1: I said, hey, if there's one thing you know,
1159
0:33:24,491 --> 0:33:26,606
Speaker 1: if I can share with you, is that at a young
1160
0:33:26,807 --> 0:33:28,899
Speaker 1: age, even right then, I was able to tell
1161
0:33:28,939 --> 0:33:29,642
Speaker 1: people my story.
1162
0:33:30,478 --> 0:33:32,671
Speaker 1: And so by doing that is allowed me to open
1163
0:33:32,752 --> 0:33:33,335
Speaker 1: up and move forward.
1164
0:33:33,818 --> 0:33:35,890
Speaker 1: And so, you know, sometimes people who
1165
0:33:35,971 --> 0:33:38,287
Speaker 1: carry their drama or their trauma with them,
1166
0:33:38,670 --> 0:33:40,450
Speaker 1: it seems to you know, hold them back from
1167
0:33:40,471 --> 0:33:42,239
Speaker 1: moving forward and achieving what they want
1168
0:33:42,259 --> 0:33:42,560
Speaker 1: to achieve.
1169
0:33:42,620 --> 0:33:44,125
Speaker 1: So, talking about it, talking about it,
1170
0:33:44,205 --> 0:33:45,780
Speaker 1: yeah, and knowing that those people there
1171
0:33:46,278 --> 0:33:47,609
Speaker 1: that are there putting in their time and
1172
0:33:47,629 --> 0:33:48,941
Speaker 1: effort, really want to help you I mean,
1173
0:33:48,962 --> 0:33:50,134
Speaker 1: they're not those guys aren't making no
1174
0:33:50,154 --> 0:33:51,589
Speaker 1: money, they're true people that are
1175
0:33:51,609 --> 0:33:53,165
Speaker 1: passionate about helping you know these
1176
0:33:53,225 --> 0:33:54,175
Speaker 1: kids and being there for them.
1177
0:33:54,717 --> 0:33:57,439
Speaker 1: And the sad part is, when I went back, it's
1178
0:33:57,499 --> 0:33:59,108
Speaker 1: changed so much now that they can't even
1179
0:33:59,691 --> 0:34:00,335
Speaker 1: hug on these kids.
1180
0:34:00,498 --> 0:34:01,455
Speaker 1: They can't touch, physically touch them.
1181
0:34:01,880 --> 0:34:03,015
Speaker 1: They can't love on them, can't nothing.
1182
0:34:03,459 --> 0:34:04,953
Speaker 1: So these kids are there, you know, maybe
1183
0:34:04,993 --> 0:34:06,348
Speaker 1: hearing it, but not feeling.
1184
0:34:06,368 --> 0:34:06,975
Speaker 1: You know even that connection.
1185
0:34:07,298 --> 0:34:09,897
Jason Salinas: It may be having an experience, maybe
1186
0:34:10,419 --> 0:34:13,146
Jason Salinas: similar to what you may have had or you had,
1187
0:34:14,137 --> 0:34:15,941
Jason Salinas: and nobody's even there to give them a hug.
1188
0:34:15,961 --> 0:34:16,723
Speaker 1: Can't even give them a hug.
1189
0:34:16,743 --> 0:34:18,748
Speaker 1: Yeah, it's crazy, it's crazy.
1190
0:34:18,955 --> 0:34:22,165
Speaker 1: So, yeah, you know, after telling the story
1191
0:34:22,255 --> 0:34:23,400
Speaker 1: they're just like okay, well, here you have
1192
0:34:23,420 --> 0:34:24,558
Speaker 1: an eight year old now who's told two
1193
0:34:24,578 --> 0:34:25,140
Speaker 1: different stories.
1194
0:34:25,615 --> 0:34:26,976
Speaker 1: We're going to keep them in here while we
1195
0:34:26,996 --> 0:34:28,081
Speaker 1: go through the whole court process.
1196
0:34:28,175 --> 0:34:29,540
Speaker 1: So chargers were pressed against my
1197
0:34:29,580 --> 0:34:31,498
Speaker 1: stepmother at the time and here I am, at
1198
0:34:31,578 --> 0:34:34,280
Speaker 1: eight years old, going to court testifying
1199
0:34:34,761 --> 0:34:36,418
Speaker 1: in front of a jury standing up pointing her
1200
0:34:36,438 --> 0:34:36,800
Speaker 1: out of minutes.
1201
0:34:37,638 --> 0:34:39,918
Speaker 1: It's happened so long ago, but when I think
1202
0:34:39,958 --> 0:34:41,497
Speaker 1: back, it's that crazy thing to be able to
1203
0:34:41,517 --> 0:34:42,239
Speaker 1: experience all that.
1204
0:34:42,279 --> 0:34:43,042
Speaker 1: You know, yeah.
1205
0:34:43,675 --> 0:34:46,096
Speaker 1: And so while I was in there this kind of
1206
0:34:46,116 --> 0:34:48,396
Speaker 1: leads to the kicks for kids story my mom
1207
0:34:48,416 --> 0:34:49,360
Speaker 1: had said, hey, is there anything I can
1208
0:34:49,400 --> 0:34:49,662
Speaker 1: bring it?
1209
0:34:49,815 --> 0:34:51,576
Speaker 1: You know, and I said, you know, I really
1210
0:34:51,596 --> 0:34:52,942
Speaker 1: would like the new Nike Cortez.
1211
0:34:53,135 --> 0:34:54,641
Speaker 1: They just came out and they're the white
1212
0:34:54,762 --> 0:34:56,340
Speaker 1: ones with the red swoosh, little blue trim,
1213
0:34:56,995 --> 0:34:59,223
Speaker 1: forest gump warm and the movie forest gump.
1214
0:34:59,655 --> 0:35:01,120
Speaker 1: And so she brought those to me and
1215
0:35:01,180 --> 0:35:02,897
Speaker 1: literally my eyes lit up the minute I seen
1216
0:35:02,937 --> 0:35:03,018
Speaker 1: her.
1217
0:35:03,660 --> 0:35:05,340
Speaker 1: You know, I don't think I wore them outside
1218
0:35:05,380 --> 0:35:06,998
Speaker 1: for a week, you know, kept the tissue in
1219
0:35:07,018 --> 0:35:08,363
Speaker 1: there, kept them in the box.
1220
0:35:08,535 --> 0:35:09,781
Speaker 1: I mean, just took care of these.
1221
0:35:09,895 --> 0:35:11,621
Speaker 1: But they gave me my own identity to have
1222
0:35:11,661 --> 0:35:13,638
Speaker 1: something brand new when everything else I
1223
0:35:13,678 --> 0:35:15,459
Speaker 1: had was used and my own like kind of style.
1224
0:35:16,375 --> 0:35:17,499
Speaker 1: I have a shoe addiction now.
1225
0:35:17,901 --> 0:35:19,397
Speaker 1: That, I said, was created by that first
1226
0:35:19,417 --> 0:35:20,862
Speaker 1: pair of shoes all the way back then.
1227
0:35:21,576 --> 0:35:23,704
Speaker 1: And so as I got older, I, you know I said,
1228
0:35:23,815 --> 0:35:25,099
Speaker 1: hey, I want to do something, I'm going to
1229
0:35:25,120 --> 0:35:26,223
Speaker 1: create a cause, I'm going to do something.
1230
0:35:26,615 --> 0:35:28,254
Speaker 1: I want to know that when I leave this earth
1231
0:35:28,355 --> 0:35:30,115
Speaker 1: I can say, hey, I created a legacy that
1232
0:35:30,176 --> 0:35:32,242
Speaker 1: wasn't just about myself and show my kids.
1233
0:35:32,463 --> 0:35:34,239
Speaker 1: You know, it's about helping other people,
1234
0:35:34,400 --> 0:35:35,002
Speaker 1: you know as well.
1235
0:35:35,135 --> 0:35:37,483
Speaker 1: And so I said, what if I do start kicks for
1236
0:35:37,503 --> 0:35:39,199
Speaker 1: kids and we take them down, the children
1237
0:35:39,219 --> 0:35:40,860
Speaker 1: receiving home right at Christmas, and they
1238
0:35:40,900 --> 0:35:43,220
Speaker 1: have that same feeling as experience, and
1239
0:35:43,240 --> 0:35:44,798
Speaker 1: I'm never the one I don't really ever like
1240
0:35:44,818 --> 0:35:46,063
Speaker 1: to just ask people for something.
1241
0:35:46,296 --> 0:35:47,741
Speaker 1: So I said what can I put on the back end of
1242
0:35:47,801 --> 0:35:47,842
Speaker 1: it?
1243
0:35:48,415 --> 0:35:49,560
Speaker 1: So I said, for every pair of shoes you
1244
0:35:49,600 --> 0:35:50,840
Speaker 1: bring down, I'll give you a raffle ticket.
1245
0:35:51,035 --> 0:35:52,301
Speaker 1: And if it happens to be a name brand
1246
0:35:52,395 --> 0:35:54,823
Speaker 1: because I remember that name brand meant so
1247
0:35:54,883 --> 0:35:56,239
Speaker 1: much to me and a lot of these kids, one
1248
0:35:56,279 --> 0:35:57,597
Speaker 1: have never had a pair of new shoes but have
1249
0:35:57,618 --> 0:35:59,395
Speaker 1: never had a brand name pair of shoes so
1250
0:35:59,416 --> 0:36:01,378
Speaker 1: I'll give you two raffle tickets so we'll
1251
0:36:01,398 --> 0:36:02,884
Speaker 1: come down and then we'll raffle them off
1252
0:36:02,935 --> 0:36:04,220
Speaker 1: when we take them down and I'll give away
1253
0:36:04,280 --> 0:36:05,537
Speaker 1: 18 sessions of training, which is about
1254
0:36:05,557 --> 0:36:06,741
Speaker 1: $1,200 worth of training.
1255
0:36:07,455 --> 0:36:08,700
Speaker 1: So that don't feel like I'm just asking
1256
0:36:09,001 --> 0:36:09,523
Speaker 1: without giving.
1257
0:36:09,615 --> 0:36:10,740
Speaker 1: And so that has grown.
1258
0:36:11,275 --> 0:36:13,398
Speaker 1: We went from 60 shoes this is our 10th year
1259
0:36:13,498 --> 0:36:15,415
Speaker 1: from 60, I think 68 pairs of shoes to

Speaker 1: First couple of years we just literally
1307
0:37:33,742 --> 0:37:35,746
Speaker 1: pull up and then donate the shoes, and I
1308
0:37:35,786 --> 0:37:36,911
Speaker 1: think it was probably the fourth year.
1309
0:37:36,985 --> 0:37:37,788
Speaker 1: They didn't know who we were.
1310
0:37:37,989 --> 0:37:39,849
Speaker 1: No one ever said no, we just like, ah, it's
1311
0:37:39,869 --> 0:37:41,647
Speaker 1: the same guy again, same guy again, and it
1312
0:37:41,687 --> 0:37:42,349
Speaker 1: took one lady.
1313
0:37:42,450 --> 0:37:43,012
Speaker 1: One time she goes.
1314
0:37:43,305 --> 0:37:44,551
Speaker 1: I wore some crazy shoes in there.
1315
0:37:44,725 --> 0:37:47,455
Speaker 1: I always go to like some Christmas-y outfit.
1316
0:37:47,525 --> 0:37:49,482
Speaker 1: I got a velour green suit with a Santa on
1317
0:37:49,502 --> 0:37:49,744
Speaker 1: the back.
1318
0:37:49,885 --> 0:37:51,886
Jason Salinas: By the way, hold up your foot here so that
1319
0:37:51,927 --> 0:37:54,149
Jason Salinas: for the camera here, now that's a Nike,
1320
0:37:54,210 --> 0:37:54,611
Jason Salinas: what, what?
1321
0:37:54,652 --> 0:37:54,812
Mark Haney: is that.
1322
0:37:54,845 --> 0:37:55,046
Jason Salinas: Metcons.
1323
0:37:55,066 --> 0:37:56,111
Jason Salinas: These are the Nike Metcons.
1324
0:37:56,165 --> 0:37:58,426
Jason Salinas: Okay, so anybody's watching on YouTube can
1325
0:37:58,466 --> 0:37:59,470
Jason Salinas: see that they're.
1326
0:37:59,851 --> 0:38:00,413
Jason Salinas: Are they purple?
1327
0:38:00,686 --> 0:38:01,710
Speaker 1: Yeah, it's like a deep purple.
1328
0:38:02,465 --> 0:38:04,914
Speaker 1: So okay, so those like collector's items or
1329
0:38:04,954 --> 0:38:06,410
Speaker 1: those you know, I actually started wearing
1330
0:38:06,430 --> 0:38:08,771
Speaker 1: these, cause I mean I'll get the Jordans
1331
0:38:08,865 --> 0:38:10,512
Speaker 1: and the collectors and stuff and they look
1332
0:38:10,532 --> 0:38:11,729
Speaker 1: good, but they're not the most comfortable
1333
0:38:11,769 --> 0:38:11,910
Speaker 1: shoe.
1334
0:38:12,345 --> 0:38:14,373
Speaker 1: This Metcon 5 is actually a workout shoe
1335
0:38:14,865 --> 0:38:17,314
Speaker 1: and I it's probably it's actually my third
1336
0:38:17,354 --> 0:38:20,133
Speaker 1: pair, but they're super comfortable, light,
1337
0:38:20,193 --> 0:38:21,629
Speaker 1: breathable and it's just a great workout
1338
0:38:21,649 --> 0:38:21,730
Speaker 1: shoe.
1339
0:38:21,865 --> 0:38:23,592
Speaker 1: So of course, I'm in the gym all the time.
1340
0:38:23,645 --> 0:38:24,969
Speaker 1: So right now this is my favorite workout
1341
0:38:24,989 --> 0:38:26,353
Speaker 1: shoe the Metcon 5.
1342
0:38:26,393 --> 0:38:27,096
Speaker 1: The Metcon 5.
1343
0:38:27,265 --> 0:38:28,430
Jason Salinas: Okay, so I interrupted you.
1344
0:38:28,470 --> 0:38:31,698
Jason Salinas: So then the lady recognized you from your
1345
0:38:31,838 --> 0:38:32,301
Jason Salinas: drop-off shoe.
1346
0:38:32,441 --> 0:38:32,984
Speaker 1: She just goes.
1347
0:38:33,004 --> 0:38:34,391
Speaker 1: She goes well, those are some crazy shoes.
1348
0:38:34,505 --> 0:38:34,666
Speaker 1: And I go.
1349
0:38:34,686 --> 0:38:35,831
Speaker 1: Well, I have a shoe addiction.
1350
0:38:35,945 --> 0:38:36,908
Speaker 1: That started when I was in here.
1351
0:38:37,088 --> 0:38:38,853
Speaker 1: She said, what, wait a minute, she was,
1352
0:38:38,953 --> 0:38:39,354
Speaker 1: what'd you say?
1353
0:38:39,374 --> 0:38:40,586
Speaker 1: And so then I ended up telling her she goes,
1354
0:38:40,606 --> 0:38:41,986
Speaker 1: oh my God, we gotta have you back, I wanna
1355
0:38:42,006 --> 0:38:43,372
Speaker 1: have you, you know you to tell a story.
1356
0:38:43,465 --> 0:38:45,272
Speaker 1: And so then I came in and met with the
1357
0:38:45,312 --> 0:38:47,732
Speaker 1: staff and they've recognized me as alumni
1358
0:38:47,772 --> 0:38:49,450
Speaker 1: from being there, and so it was pretty cool
1359
0:38:49,846 --> 0:38:51,325
Speaker 1: and I had always wanted to be there and
1360
0:38:51,345 --> 0:38:52,531
Speaker 1: actually hand the shoes out with the kids.
1361
0:38:52,605 --> 0:38:55,949
Speaker 1: But you know it's pretty private and they
1362
0:38:55,969 --> 0:38:58,636
Speaker 1: had had an incident where a girl had passed
1363
0:38:58,656 --> 0:38:59,728
Speaker 1: away a couple of years ago.
1364
0:38:59,768 --> 0:39:00,672
Speaker 1: That was in the children's home.
1365
0:39:00,705 --> 0:39:02,565
Speaker 1: She ran, her friend was running away, she
1366
0:39:02,606 --> 0:39:04,546
Speaker 1: was actually going to stop her, got hit by
1367
0:39:04,567 --> 0:39:05,510
Speaker 1: a car on I-80.
1368
0:39:06,105 --> 0:39:07,625
Speaker 1: And so it just brought a lot of turmoil to
1369
0:39:07,645 --> 0:39:09,025
Speaker 1: the second one she was receiving home a lot
1370
0:39:09,046 --> 0:39:10,752
Speaker 1: of negative, you know, for them not
1371
0:39:10,812 --> 0:39:12,509
Speaker 1: stopping her, but their hands are tied
1372
0:39:12,529 --> 0:39:13,793
Speaker 1: behind their back of what they can do, you
1373
0:39:13,833 --> 0:39:13,914
Speaker 1: know.
1374
0:39:14,025 --> 0:39:15,485
Speaker 1: And so they reached out and they said, hey,
1375
0:39:15,525 --> 0:39:17,052
Speaker 1: can you come down and speak to the staff
1376
0:39:17,265 --> 0:39:18,490
Speaker 1: and the kids here, just to kind of build
1377
0:39:18,530 --> 0:39:19,012
Speaker 1: around.
1378
0:39:19,105 --> 0:39:21,106
Speaker 1: I was like I'll be there tomorrow, so the
1379
0:39:21,146 --> 0:39:23,174
Speaker 1: video that you got to see was at.
1380
0:39:23,265 --> 0:39:25,066
Speaker 1: That was about three years ago, and that
1381
0:39:25,086 --> 0:39:26,411
Speaker 1: was the first chance I got to go and speak
1382
0:39:26,431 --> 0:39:28,411
Speaker 1: back, and so it was just such a cool
1383
0:39:28,452 --> 0:39:30,110
Speaker 1: feeling to be able to see the kids and the
1384
0:39:30,150 --> 0:39:31,790
Speaker 1: staff and let the staff know that, man, you
1385
0:39:31,811 --> 0:39:33,791
Speaker 1: guys, you did real good with me.
1386
0:39:33,931 --> 0:39:34,353
Speaker 1: You know what I mean.
1387
0:39:34,725 --> 0:39:36,407
Speaker 1: You taught me to be able to open up and
1388
0:39:36,447 --> 0:39:36,908
Speaker 1: talk about.
1389
0:39:36,989 --> 0:39:38,173
Speaker 1: You know the issues that I was going
1390
0:39:38,213 --> 0:39:40,051
Speaker 1: through and, rather than that, hold me down,
1391
0:39:40,525 --> 0:39:41,690
Speaker 1: be able to grow and move forward with it.
1392
0:39:42,826 --> 0:39:46,786
Jason Salinas: So how important was youth sports and high
1393
0:39:46,806 --> 0:39:48,874
Jason Salinas: school sports in your development?
1394
0:39:48,945 --> 0:39:53,367
Jason Salinas: I think a lot of times we forget how much
1395
0:39:53,628 --> 0:39:55,034
Jason Salinas: that can be an impact.
1396
0:39:55,125 --> 0:39:56,751
Jason Salinas: We need those role models.
1397
0:39:57,325 --> 0:40:00,294
Jason Salinas: Sometimes even a tough coach can be super
1398
0:40:00,334 --> 0:40:02,671
Jason Salinas: helpful, and you obviously were a very,
1399
0:40:02,751 --> 0:40:06,589
Jason Salinas: very good athlete and maybe somebody who
1400
0:40:06,649 --> 0:40:09,706
Jason Salinas: needed a little bit of a role model or role
1401
0:40:09,726 --> 0:40:11,233
Jason Salinas: models in your life, similar to the way
1402
0:40:11,305 --> 0:40:14,475
Jason Salinas: Jason Bartlett or Mutual Buddy needed.
1403
0:40:14,625 --> 0:40:17,433
Jason Salinas: Was that a part of your shaping of you?
1404
0:40:18,525 --> 0:40:20,352
Speaker 1: People ask like who was your male role
1405
0:40:20,392 --> 0:40:20,613
Speaker 1: model?
1406
0:40:22,965 --> 0:40:24,209
Speaker 1: Grandpa Pager, I mean he worked hard.
1407
0:40:26,005 --> 0:40:28,910
Speaker 1: He provided for the family, he loved my
1408
0:40:28,950 --> 0:40:30,926
Speaker 1: grandma and was a great husband, would do
1409
0:40:30,946 --> 0:40:31,026
Speaker 1: any.
1410
0:40:31,166 --> 0:40:33,674
Speaker 1: I mean I probably learned as much
1411
0:40:33,714 --> 0:40:34,055
Speaker 1: discipline.
1412
0:40:34,105 --> 0:40:35,129
Speaker 1: I mean I worked a couple of summers
1413
0:40:35,149 --> 0:40:35,892
Speaker 1: building houses with him.
1414
0:40:35,965 --> 0:40:37,371
Speaker 1: I hated him one minute, loved him the next.
1415
0:40:38,367 --> 0:40:39,111
Speaker 1: But he taught me a lot.
1416
0:40:39,185 --> 0:40:40,710
Speaker 1: He wasn't really physically teaching me
1417
0:40:40,771 --> 0:40:42,930
Speaker 1: sports and no one really had to do that,
1418
0:40:43,005 --> 0:40:43,467
Speaker 1: that was just.
1419
0:40:43,587 --> 0:40:45,714
Speaker 1: And I look back now and I go, I just had it
1420
0:40:45,734 --> 0:40:45,834
Speaker 1: in me.
1421
0:40:46,246 --> 0:40:48,467
Speaker 1: I played soccer, football, baseball and I
1422
0:40:48,487 --> 0:40:49,612
Speaker 1: was gonna be the team captain.
1423
0:40:49,825 --> 0:40:51,847
Speaker 1: If it took me one season or next, I just my
1424
0:40:51,867 --> 0:40:53,512
Speaker 1: goal was I was gonna be the leader of every
1425
0:40:53,552 --> 0:40:55,731
Speaker 1: team all the way from junior high, all the
1426
0:40:55,751 --> 0:40:56,807
Speaker 1: way through high school, and I don't know
1427
0:40:56,887 --> 0:40:58,188
Speaker 1: where that comes from, but it was like when
1428
0:40:58,208 --> 0:40:59,569
Speaker 1: I'm on this team I'm gonna be one of the
1429
0:40:59,589 --> 0:41:00,868
Speaker 1: captains and I just have.
1430
0:41:01,048 --> 0:41:02,927
Speaker 1: I've just always taken that role and I
1431
0:41:02,967 --> 0:41:04,506
Speaker 1: think I took it when I became a manager to
1432
0:41:04,526 --> 0:41:06,869
Speaker 1: train the trainers and it kind of falls
1433
0:41:06,909 --> 0:41:07,753
Speaker 1: into play with clients.
1434
0:41:07,825 --> 0:41:08,909
Speaker 1: You know, clients are like kind of my
1435
0:41:08,950 --> 0:41:10,789
Speaker 1: teammates and it's kind of to build them up
1436
0:41:10,829 --> 0:41:13,370
Speaker 1: and get them excited and come at it with an
1437
0:41:13,410 --> 0:41:15,806
Speaker 1: approach that's different than when you
1438
0:41:15,846 --> 0:41:17,866
Speaker 1: think of your traditional trainer who's
1439
0:41:17,886 --> 0:41:19,092
Speaker 1: gonna beat you up or yelling at you.
1440
0:41:19,125 --> 0:41:20,431
Speaker 1: I tell people like I'm here to coach you,
1441
0:41:20,525 --> 0:41:22,446
Speaker 1: I'm here to pick you up, coach you and if
1442
0:41:22,506 --> 0:41:24,252
Speaker 1: anything, if I'm beating you up, you're
1443
0:41:24,272 --> 0:41:26,250
Speaker 1: gonna regret, you're not gonna wanna come
1444
0:41:26,270 --> 0:41:26,592
Speaker 1: to the gym.
1445
0:41:26,945 --> 0:41:28,231
Speaker 1: But if I can give you the tools that you
1446
0:41:28,291 --> 0:41:30,766
Speaker 1: need and coach you through this when you're
1447
0:41:30,786 --> 0:41:32,047
Speaker 1: not ready to follow your menu, hey, come in
1448
0:41:32,067 --> 0:41:33,152
Speaker 1: and let's get at least a good workout.
1449
0:41:33,225 --> 0:41:34,431
Speaker 1: There's gonna be that time where it flips
1450
0:41:34,505 --> 0:41:36,565
Speaker 1: and you're ready to listen and learn, and
1451
0:41:36,585 --> 0:41:37,766
Speaker 1: it's not about beating somebody up trying
1452
0:41:37,786 --> 0:41:38,609
Speaker 1: to improve something you know.
1453
0:41:38,670 --> 0:41:41,726
Jason Salinas: So Well, you mentioned grandpa Pager, so I
1454
0:41:41,826 --> 0:41:45,996
Jason Salinas: know him new him and your grandmother is
1455
0:41:46,705 --> 0:41:47,367
Jason Salinas: because it's through.
1456
0:41:47,407 --> 0:41:50,228
Jason Salinas: My wife is aunt and uncle, uncle Bob and
1457
0:41:50,329 --> 0:41:53,972
Jason Salinas: Anastell, and they were the warmest people
1458
0:41:55,115 --> 0:41:58,109
Jason Salinas: in that family to me and I could sense the
1459
0:41:58,149 --> 0:41:59,193
Jason Salinas: community that you know.
1460
0:41:59,225 --> 0:42:02,113
Jason Salinas: They had a gift in bringing people together.
1461
0:42:02,133 --> 0:42:02,575
Jason Salinas: Oh, yeah.
1462
0:42:03,245 --> 0:42:07,877
Jason Salinas: And so I feel like sometimes as family
1463
0:42:07,957 --> 0:42:10,831
Jason Salinas: members you sort of look around and if
1464
0:42:10,871 --> 0:42:14,410
Jason Salinas: that's not happening, maybe it's up to you
1465
0:42:14,470 --> 0:42:15,955
Jason Salinas: to step up and lead.
1466
0:42:16,145 --> 0:42:19,254
Jason Salinas: So I don't know if that's happening now in
1467
0:42:19,314 --> 0:42:21,511
Jason Salinas: that in our family, like that it's
1468
0:42:21,531 --> 0:42:24,253
Jason Salinas: happening, I have it like in my little side
1469
0:42:24,273 --> 0:42:26,691
Jason Salinas: of the family but not in the broader family,
1470
0:42:26,731 --> 0:42:27,233
Jason Salinas: if that even.
1471
0:42:27,505 --> 0:42:28,889
Speaker 1: My sister's actually done a really good job
1472
0:42:29,070 --> 0:42:29,270
Speaker 1: of it.
1473
0:42:29,391 --> 0:42:30,494
Speaker 1: Oh okay, Super proud of her.
1474
0:42:31,347 --> 0:42:32,351
Speaker 1: She's kind of filled that role.
1475
0:42:32,686 --> 0:42:34,390
Speaker 1: She reminds me of grandma Pager.
1476
0:42:34,510 --> 0:42:35,493
Speaker 1: Yeah, she's Interesting.
1477
0:42:35,533 --> 0:42:36,917
Jason Salinas: That's cool, I'm glad that you have that,
1478
0:42:37,492 --> 0:42:39,589
Jason Salinas: because what a great role, I think, for all
1479
0:42:39,609 --> 0:42:43,028
Jason Salinas: of these, like my kids even and for me and
1480
0:42:43,088 --> 0:42:45,896
Jason Salinas: for you know, my in-laws and stuff.
1481
0:42:46,385 --> 0:42:49,053
Jason Salinas: What a great example that we learned by
1482
0:42:49,113 --> 0:42:49,635
Jason Salinas: going over.
1483
0:42:50,225 --> 0:42:51,912
Jason Salinas: Were you living at that house at that time?
1484
0:42:51,985 --> 0:42:52,948
Mark Haney: Yeah, you're living there at your
1485
0:42:52,969 --> 0:42:53,932
Mark Haney: grandparents' house.
1486
0:42:54,906 --> 0:42:58,685
Jason Salinas: And you know we're going over there and
1487
0:42:58,706 --> 0:43:00,412
Jason Salinas: kind of trampling on your.
1488
0:43:00,645 --> 0:43:01,889
Jason Salinas: I'm playing on your basketball court.
1489
0:43:01,909 --> 0:43:03,213
Jason Salinas: We're over there playing basketball, I'm on
1490
0:43:03,233 --> 0:43:03,554
Jason Salinas: your court.
1491
0:43:03,885 --> 0:43:04,869
Jason Salinas: You're like get these old men off my
1492
0:43:04,889 --> 0:43:05,612
Jason Salinas: basketball court.
1493
0:43:05,925 --> 0:43:07,371
Jason Salinas: I'm probably in my 20s at that time.
1494
0:43:07,505 --> 0:43:09,732
Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, just just, it was just a great.
1495
0:43:10,645 --> 0:43:11,730
Speaker 1: They were definitely kind of, I say, the
1496
0:43:11,770 --> 0:43:12,412
Speaker 1: rock of the family.
1497
0:43:12,585 --> 0:43:16,086
Speaker 1: I mean for sure you know, very rarely I've
1498
0:43:16,106 --> 0:43:16,327
Speaker 1: done things.
1499
0:43:16,347 --> 0:43:17,607
Speaker 1: I've ever seen them fight, maybe once or
1500
0:43:17,647 --> 0:43:19,951
Speaker 1: twice, but just really just kind of set the
1501
0:43:19,971 --> 0:43:22,313
Speaker 1: tone, I think, for a lot of, like you know,
1502
0:43:22,845 --> 0:43:24,527
Speaker 1: aunts and uncles to kind of see how their
1503
0:43:24,547 --> 0:43:25,310
Speaker 1: relationship should be.
1504
0:43:25,590 --> 0:43:27,566
Jason Salinas: So All right, one more subject, and then
1505
0:43:27,586 --> 0:43:29,052
Jason Salinas: I'll let you kind of close it out a little
1506
0:43:29,072 --> 0:43:29,152
Jason Salinas: bit.
1507
0:43:29,205 --> 0:43:30,410
Jason Salinas: You brought up, as we were walking up the
1508
0:43:30,450 --> 0:43:32,691
Jason Salinas: stairs and into the studio here in my
1509
0:43:32,791 --> 0:43:34,556
Jason Salinas: office, you brought up the Niners.
1510
0:43:34,605 --> 0:43:36,408
Jason Salinas: You're a Niners fan, I'm a Niners fan.
1511
0:43:36,945 --> 0:43:38,712
Jason Salinas: What do you think of those guys' chances
1512
0:43:38,752 --> 0:43:39,687
Jason Salinas: right now Is Birdie.
1513
0:43:39,827 --> 0:43:41,272
Jason Salinas: Is Birdie the real deal?
1514
0:43:42,445 --> 0:43:44,672
Jason Salinas: Because he, to me, I love watching that
1515
0:43:44,692 --> 0:43:44,873
Jason Salinas: dude.
1516
0:43:44,953 --> 0:43:45,334
Speaker 1: I do too.
1517
0:43:45,805 --> 0:43:46,718
Speaker 1: I think he's a great story.
1518
0:43:47,265 --> 0:43:50,314
Speaker 1: I think his poise and just the way he
1519
0:43:50,354 --> 0:43:52,265
Speaker 1: doesn't he's not up or he's not down, he's
1520
0:43:52,285 --> 0:43:53,169
Speaker 1: just boom dialed in.
1521
0:43:53,530 --> 0:43:54,253
Speaker 1: It's fun watching him.
1522
0:43:54,385 --> 0:43:55,330
Speaker 1: I think he's got some great stars.
1523
0:43:55,746 --> 0:43:58,054
Speaker 1: Yeah, I mean, my day is the 49er fan.
1524
0:43:58,145 --> 0:43:59,630
Speaker 1: Go all the way back to Dwight Clark and
1525
0:44:00,052 --> 0:44:01,267
Speaker 1: Russ Francis and Joe.
1526
0:44:01,287 --> 0:44:01,949
Speaker 1: Montana.
1527
0:44:02,009 --> 0:44:04,348
Speaker 1: Ronnie Lott Used to go to Sierra and watch
1528
0:44:04,388 --> 0:44:05,512
Speaker 1: these guys practice over here.
1529
0:44:06,185 --> 0:44:08,994
Speaker 1: I think I was literally probably 10 or 11.
1530
0:44:09,525 --> 0:44:12,635
Speaker 1: And I wrote a letter to Joe Montana.
1531
0:44:12,885 --> 0:44:14,351
Speaker 1: He think he went through a separation or
1532
0:44:14,391 --> 0:44:14,852
Speaker 1: something like that.
1533
0:44:15,145 --> 0:44:16,671
Speaker 1: I'm a partner who's roomin' with Dwight
1534
0:44:16,691 --> 0:44:18,952
Speaker 1: Clark and about a year later I get a black
1535
0:44:18,972 --> 0:44:20,268
Speaker 1: and white picture sent from each of them,
1536
0:44:20,348 --> 0:44:21,071
Speaker 1: autographed and signed.
1537
0:44:21,165 --> 0:44:22,711
Speaker 1: I have it in my office at the gym still to
1538
0:44:22,751 --> 0:44:23,152
Speaker 1: this day.
1539
0:44:23,585 --> 0:44:25,090
Speaker 1: So yeah, I've been fans of those guys for a
1540
0:44:25,130 --> 0:44:25,692
Speaker 1: long time.
1541
0:44:26,425 --> 0:44:27,510
Speaker 1: It's definitely fun and exciting to watch
1542
0:44:27,530 --> 0:44:27,610
Speaker 1: them.
1543
0:44:27,986 --> 0:44:29,170
Speaker 1: But yeah, birdie's amazing.
1544
0:44:29,371 --> 0:44:31,746
Jason Salinas: Yeah, it is A lot of history there, okay,
1545
0:44:31,766 --> 0:44:32,811
Jason Salinas: so what did I not ask you?
1546
0:44:33,668 --> 0:44:36,288
Jason Salinas: Just closing thoughts, anything I maybe I
1547
0:44:36,369 --> 0:44:37,730
Jason Salinas: didn't ask you that we need to get out.
1548
0:44:39,529 --> 0:44:39,890
Speaker 1: I don't know.
1549
0:44:41,285 --> 0:44:43,413
Speaker 1: Yeah, we got kicks for kids coming up.
1550
0:44:43,505 --> 0:44:45,151
Speaker 1: We're taking the shoes over on the 20th.
1551
0:44:46,285 --> 0:44:48,192
Speaker 1: This has grown kicks for kids over the last
1552
0:44:48,212 --> 0:44:49,247
Speaker 1: couple years so we do help.
1553
0:44:49,267 --> 0:44:51,467
Speaker 1: A couple additional causes Obviously dear
1554
0:44:51,487 --> 0:44:52,612
Speaker 1: to my hearts the children receiving home.
1555
0:44:52,705 --> 0:44:53,970
Speaker 1: So they're kind of the first ones we work
1556
0:44:53,990 --> 0:44:54,111
Speaker 1: with.
1557
0:44:54,645 --> 0:44:56,552
Speaker 1: But my goal this year was to think big and
1558
0:44:56,592 --> 0:44:57,234
Speaker 1: outside the box.
1559
0:44:57,505 --> 0:44:59,438
Speaker 1: So I set a goal for 600 pairs of shoes this
1560
0:44:59,458 --> 0:44:59,619
Speaker 1: year.
1561
0:45:00,404 --> 0:45:00,625
Speaker 1: Oh, wow.
1562
0:45:00,625 --> 0:45:02,446
Speaker 1: And so about two years ago we started
1563
0:45:02,486 --> 0:45:04,967
Speaker 1: working with Homeade as well, and Homeade
1564
0:45:05,027 --> 0:45:06,493
Speaker 1: is foster kids of Sacramento.
1565
0:45:06,625 --> 0:45:07,709
Speaker 1: They also work with some of the children
1566
0:45:07,730 --> 0:45:09,630
Speaker 1: from Weave, and so we started taking over
1567
0:45:09,705 --> 0:45:10,930
Speaker 1: about 100 pairs of shoes to them.
1568
0:45:11,506 --> 0:45:12,751
Speaker 1: And I was like, man, I wanna go big.
1569
0:45:13,568 --> 0:45:18,215
Speaker 1: So Mexicali is a mission trip that my home
1570
0:45:18,256 --> 0:45:19,404
Speaker 1: church, bayside, goes to each and every
1571
0:45:19,424 --> 0:45:21,382
Speaker 1: year, and so I said I don't get to go on
1572
0:45:21,402 --> 0:45:21,705
Speaker 1: that trip.
1573
0:45:22,453 --> 0:45:23,505
Speaker 1: Obviously I'm working, but I wanna raise
1574
0:45:24,127 --> 0:45:25,613
Speaker 1: 100 pairs of shoes to take down to these
1575
0:45:25,633 --> 0:45:25,874
Speaker 1: guys.
1576
0:45:26,792 --> 0:45:29,228
Speaker 1: And then I ended up talking with Zach, and
1577
0:45:29,529 --> 0:45:31,735
Speaker 1: Zach, philly and his brother started a
1578
0:45:31,755 --> 0:45:34,018
Speaker 1: nonprofit called X-Hope and so Zach was
1579
0:45:34,038 --> 0:45:35,613
Speaker 1: telling me about a month ago he goes.
1580
0:45:35,633 --> 0:45:36,542
Speaker 1: Hey, we got an event where my brother's
1581
0:45:36,562 --> 0:45:39,544
Speaker 1: building a school in Uganda, next to this
1582
0:45:39,564 --> 0:45:42,879
Speaker 1: church and we're basically auction off
1583
0:45:42,959 --> 0:45:44,165
Speaker 1: building classrooms.
1584
0:45:44,952 --> 0:45:46,243
Speaker 1: And so Zach had said, yeah, I purchased a
1585
0:45:46,263 --> 0:45:47,920
Speaker 1: classroom we're building and it's basically
1586
0:45:47,940 --> 0:45:49,657
Speaker 1: gonna be in his name and the history of it.
1587
0:45:49,677 --> 0:45:51,638
Speaker 1: He'll have his name up there for his legacy
1588
0:45:51,658 --> 0:45:52,305
Speaker 1: and family and stuff like that.
1589
0:45:52,814 --> 0:45:53,324
Speaker 1: That's pretty cool.
1590
0:45:53,385 --> 0:45:54,904
Speaker 1: So then, just thinking about that, I said
1591
0:45:54,924 --> 0:45:56,952
Speaker 1: Zach, I said what about sending some shoes
1592
0:45:56,992 --> 0:45:57,614
Speaker 1: to these kids?
1593
0:45:58,291 --> 0:45:58,898
Speaker 1: And he got fired up.
1594
0:45:58,918 --> 0:46:00,011
Speaker 1: He called his brother, said hey, jason's
1595
0:46:00,136 --> 0:46:01,721
Speaker 1: thinking of sending some shoes back.
1596
0:46:02,406 --> 0:46:04,803
Speaker 1: And boom, kyle was on the phone with me
1597
0:46:04,843 --> 0:46:05,125
Speaker 1: right away.
1598
0:46:05,648 --> 0:46:07,803
Speaker 1: They sent me a video just about three days
1599
0:46:07,824 --> 0:46:10,351
Speaker 1: ago that I posted where they're actually at
1600
0:46:11,655 --> 0:46:12,928
Speaker 1: the little village of where the shoes are
1601
0:46:12,948 --> 0:46:14,690
Speaker 1: gonna go, and showed the kids running
1602
0:46:14,710 --> 0:46:14,971
Speaker 1: around.
1603
0:46:15,225 --> 0:46:16,931
Speaker 1: And they said two thirds of these kids
1604
0:46:16,972 --> 0:46:18,247
Speaker 1: don't even have shoes and they'll walk
1605
0:46:18,287 --> 0:46:19,968
Speaker 1: three to five miles to church service on
1606
0:46:20,009 --> 0:46:20,310
Speaker 1: Sunday.
1607
0:46:20,765 --> 0:46:21,849
Speaker 1: So I said, dude, we're sending a hundred
1608
0:46:21,869 --> 0:46:22,512
Speaker 1: pair of shoes there.
1609
0:46:23,426 --> 0:46:25,333
Speaker 1: So we're thinking big outside the box.
1610
0:46:25,806 --> 0:46:27,605
Speaker 1: I would love to say that S&B, elite and
1611
0:46:27,625 --> 0:46:29,051
