00:00:00.479 --> 00:00:03.439
Hello, everybody, and welcome back to another nervotics QA.
00:00:03.600 --> 00:00:13.439
We are the Direct Current Company and proud leaders of Direct Current Education, sharing real world experience from athletes, coaches, and doctors, other professionals worldwide.
00:00:13.599 --> 00:00:17.440
Joining with me in this conversation today is our athletic trainer, Mason.
00:00:17.600 --> 00:00:19.120
Uh Mason, good to see you, bud.
00:00:19.280 --> 00:00:20.320
How have you been doing?
00:00:20.800 --> 00:00:21.679
Good to see you, Jay.
00:00:21.760 --> 00:00:22.879
Demandon doing well.
00:00:23.039 --> 00:00:25.280
Missed out on uh yesterday's conversation.
00:00:25.359 --> 00:00:32.320
So I'm excited to be back and excited to uh to strike up another conversation with somebody that we got to spend some time with earlier this year.
00:00:32.640 --> 00:00:34.479
Yeah, this one's a little long overdue.
00:00:34.640 --> 00:00:36.880
Uh we got some history now with him.
00:00:36.960 --> 00:00:39.840
We were we were there when we were in uh Arizona.
00:00:40.159 --> 00:00:47.039
A lot of good stuff going on with this place and this individual specifically, so it'll be exciting.
00:00:47.600 --> 00:00:51.679
Um I guess without further ado, we have a little brief introduction and then we'll pull them on.
00:00:51.759 --> 00:00:54.079
So uh enough of my talking, here we go.
00:00:55.600 --> 00:00:58.799
People think they're training, but they're not.
00:00:59.280 --> 00:01:03.920
They're going through the motions, they're chasing comfort disguised as effort.
00:01:04.159 --> 00:01:07.200
And comfort doesn't survive when the lights come on.
00:01:07.519 --> 00:01:16.159
Because when everything speeds up, when the pressure hits, when the moment doesn't care how you feel, that's when truth shows up.
00:01:16.560 --> 00:01:26.480
Not your highlight reel, not your intentions, your preparation, every flaw exposed, every hesitation punished.
00:01:27.920 --> 00:01:40.879
There's a breaking point in every athlete, a moment where the body hesitates, where the mind lags, and where everything slows down just enough to lose.
00:01:43.280 --> 00:01:45.280
Unless you've trained for that moment.
00:01:46.480 --> 00:01:55.120
Unless you've built something deeper, something sharper, something that doesn't think, it just reacts.
00:01:55.280 --> 00:01:59.359
Because at the highest level, reaction isn't a skill, it's survival.
00:01:59.439 --> 00:02:03.359
And survival is built in the dark long before anyone else is watching.
00:02:03.599 --> 00:02:09.759
There is a man pushing athletes into that place, that deep dark place.
00:02:10.719 --> 00:02:16.719
So lonely and silent that you can hear the rhythm of your own heartbeat.
00:02:17.120 --> 00:02:20.879
Your hesitation disappears and performance becomes instinct.
00:02:21.039 --> 00:02:27.039
There is a man who doesn't train athletes, he strips them down to what they really are.
00:02:27.280 --> 00:02:37.759
A man who takes you past the noise, past the hype, past the comfort into that place, that deep dark place, so quiet, so isolated.
00:02:37.919 --> 00:02:45.039
You can hear the rhythm of your own heartbeat, where doubt gets loud, where hesitation shows itself, where most people break.
00:02:45.280 --> 00:02:50.159
But if you stay there, if you learn to live there, that's where hesitation disappears.
00:02:50.319 --> 00:02:52.240
That's where performance stops thinking.
00:02:52.319 --> 00:02:53.599
It starts becoming instant.
00:02:53.919 --> 00:02:58.800
There is a man who can take you there, a man who can prepare you for that battle.
00:02:58.960 --> 00:03:05.039
He is the founder, he is the builder, he is the one driving the future of athletic performance.
00:03:05.280 --> 00:03:09.840
Please give a warm welcome to John Filming.
00:03:16.319 --> 00:03:17.039
Hey John.
00:03:17.520 --> 00:03:20.960
Hey, can we stop right now and I'll just leave because that's about as good as it's gonna get.
00:03:21.120 --> 00:03:23.439
Because you know you made me sound way better than I am already.
00:03:23.520 --> 00:03:25.439
So uh hi guys, how are you doing?
00:03:25.759 --> 00:03:26.240
Good to see you.
00:03:26.479 --> 00:03:26.960
Doing good, man.
00:03:27.120 --> 00:03:27.439
Doing good.
00:03:27.520 --> 00:03:28.240
Good to see you.
00:03:30.639 --> 00:03:34.319
It's it's been a it seems like it's been a while, but we were just over in your place.
00:03:34.400 --> 00:03:40.479
Uh um, I you know it's funny because I I used it felt a little self-serving to put some of our our guys up there.
00:03:40.639 --> 00:03:45.680
Uh, but we had such a fun time in in your in your place that uh I couldn't help but use it.
00:03:46.159 --> 00:03:48.400
Uh likewise, we we loved having you guys out there.
00:03:48.560 --> 00:03:51.919
I mean, only wish that we had is that we could do it more often, obviously, right?
00:03:52.000 --> 00:03:58.879
Because when you put a bunch of people that are passionate about what they do in the same room, I think that good things happen, which we we kind of saw, right?
00:03:58.960 --> 00:04:05.039
I mean, we're lucky enough to have a place that we've got a lot of cool toys, thanks to you guys and other great companies.
00:04:05.280 --> 00:04:10.560
But when you start putting the brains behind all that in the same room, uh usually good things happen.
00:04:11.039 --> 00:04:14.639
Yeah, we were geeking out for quite some time that day.
00:04:14.800 --> 00:04:15.759
Um, it was fun.
00:04:15.840 --> 00:04:17.680
We probably could have spent all week just at your place.
00:04:17.759 --> 00:04:22.800
And I think probably next year we'll, you know, if you're okay with it, we may spend some more time there.
00:04:22.879 --> 00:04:25.120
I I felt like there was just not enough time.
00:04:25.360 --> 00:04:26.800
Um, we learned a lot with you.
00:04:26.959 --> 00:04:28.800
We learned a lot with a lot of your technology.
00:04:29.040 --> 00:04:34.160
And yeah, let's kind of let's kind of unpack that because you do have a lot of cutting-edge things.
00:04:34.399 --> 00:04:38.319
Um, and it's not that's not really that's not your the definition of you.
00:04:38.639 --> 00:04:41.040
I think there's a lot of other things you use with that.
00:04:41.199 --> 00:04:46.639
I think a lot of people they'll get a bunch of gadgets um and then they kind of sit in the sidelines.
00:04:47.040 --> 00:04:49.600
You have so much more versatility than that.
00:04:49.839 --> 00:04:56.319
Can you explain how that got started and and you know where your new your your kind of unique training style came from?
00:04:56.399 --> 00:05:00.240
And then, of course, a lot of the guys that you know that work with you also as unique.
00:05:00.399 --> 00:05:01.600
How did that begin?
00:05:01.920 --> 00:05:02.639
Yeah, absolutely.
00:05:02.800 --> 00:05:04.959
Well, I mean, first and foremost, I'm a dad, right?
00:05:05.040 --> 00:05:07.439
And so I have uh I have a pretty good little baseball player.
00:05:07.519 --> 00:05:10.720
He's he's 16, and I have a daughter that plays volleyball, she's 13.
00:05:10.879 --> 00:05:17.439
Um, both play high-level travel ball, and obviously, you know, going to both of them be in high school next year, one of them's already there.
00:05:17.680 --> 00:05:20.959
Um, and so there's always a need, there's always been a need, right?
00:05:21.040 --> 00:05:24.800
And there's been there's great training facilities all over Arizona.
00:05:24.879 --> 00:05:26.879
We're very fortunate, especially with baseball, right?
00:05:27.040 --> 00:05:34.959
We we have this is the Mecca of baseball, and so there's lots of good training everywhere, but it's hard to find it on the west side of Phoenix where we live.
00:05:35.120 --> 00:05:46.720
Um, and then you know, I was fortunate enough for almost three years ago now to have some business partners that said, Hey, we we found a company that we want to be a part of, and I think we can do a lot of cool things with it.
00:05:46.800 --> 00:06:07.600
Um, we take a look at these platforms, they move and they and see tell me what you think about them and see, you know, we we were in the military space a little bit with what we were doing with our other company, and they're like, hey, this is this is right in the middle of COVID, and we think that we can they're the military's wanting us to design some training that doesn't involve live rounds downrange.
00:06:07.759 --> 00:06:10.079
We can do singular operators in there and do all this.
00:06:10.319 --> 00:06:14.879
We can also help, you know, their their proprioception skills and moving throughout there.
00:06:15.040 --> 00:06:19.199
So we have a lot of great people that we work with in the special operations community.
00:06:19.279 --> 00:06:23.680
Um, and we flew them all out to look at this this product, and they're like, Yeah, this is cool.
00:06:23.920 --> 00:06:30.560
And everyone was you know skeptic, like, yeah, whatever, it's just it's just like a bosu ball, but it's not, and okay, yeah, let's go with that.
00:06:30.639 --> 00:06:36.399
Um, and we put them on there, we set a simulator up and let them run some uh some drills through there, and they're like, Yeah, this is hard.
00:06:36.560 --> 00:06:37.839
This is good, is what we need, right?
00:06:37.920 --> 00:06:39.680
So then it started evolving from there.
00:06:39.839 --> 00:06:45.759
Um, and again, I was fortunate to have to have business partners that said, hey, like time is more valuable than money.
00:06:46.000 --> 00:06:48.079
So just build it and let's go.
00:06:48.160 --> 00:06:49.600
And so we built our lab here.
00:06:49.759 --> 00:06:53.199
We started with 5,000 square feet here in Arizona, and it was just a lab.
00:06:53.279 --> 00:07:14.720
We put the boards in there and some weights, and we had simulators up there, we had one batting cage, and it was just to go and throw a bunch of stuff at the wall and see what's stuck and start developing protocols for the boards and going through there and designing new software that would run it, how he wanted, how athletes needed it, how uh the military side of the world needed it, and as well as the medical side needed it, right?
00:07:14.879 --> 00:07:23.360
So um, for the first eight to 12 months, that's all we did all day long with whiteboards everywhere, just drawing stuff on there.
00:07:23.439 --> 00:07:31.439
And you know, my connection with my son's uh teams and this and that, and some of the pro connections we had, we were inviting guys in to hit.
00:07:31.519 --> 00:07:34.240
We had, you know, we had track man, we had hit tracks, we had radars.
00:07:34.560 --> 00:07:44.399
Our thing was if our equipment and our protocols could could increase your bat velocity by X or your throwing velocity by X, we needed to be able to prove it.
00:07:44.639 --> 00:07:49.360
And the standard deviation on any radar gun is like two and a half percent, is aware of that now.
00:07:49.519 --> 00:07:53.279
So um we needed three, we we put three different devices in there to train it.
00:07:53.360 --> 00:07:54.639
And look, here's all it is, right?
00:07:54.720 --> 00:07:57.120
So now we now we can see what we're really tracking.
00:07:57.279 --> 00:08:02.079
Um, so we started there and it just it just kind of rolled from there and it kept evolving.
00:08:02.160 --> 00:08:05.839
And people are like, well, hey, you should open to the public, let people come in here and do this more often.
00:08:05.920 --> 00:08:07.519
And I'm like, Yeah, I love the idea.
00:08:07.680 --> 00:08:12.480
I just don't know if there's enough there because real estate and overhead's very expensive.
00:08:12.560 --> 00:08:13.439
We all know that, right?
00:08:13.519 --> 00:08:15.439
And so started putting some feelers out there.
00:08:15.519 --> 00:08:20.240
So we tested it with our 5,000 square foot uh the first year, and it was great.
00:08:20.399 --> 00:08:22.000
Had had a great turnout.
00:08:22.079 --> 00:08:31.199
Um, people wanting more pro teams were saying, Hey, we wish we had a place we'd set our coaches and athletes to go and train on your equipment uh so that we could buy them and bring them, bring them in there.
00:08:31.279 --> 00:08:33.200
Well, that's music to our ears, right?
00:08:33.279 --> 00:08:35.039
It's it's that's dollars, that's sales.
00:08:35.200 --> 00:08:39.360
So um again, I had great medical friends too.
00:08:39.440 --> 00:08:45.200
They came in and started designing the protocols on the medical side, uh, which we still employ today with our with our warm-up protocols.
00:08:45.279 --> 00:08:50.240
Uh JD Burgess uh designed the first protocol we call it our neuromuscular warm-up.
00:08:50.320 --> 00:08:52.480
I ran you guys through it a little bit when you were out here, right?
00:08:52.559 --> 00:09:00.320
It's something that all of our athletes do every single day when they come into the facility, whether they're hitting, pitching, working out, whatever they're doing, they they start there.
00:09:00.480 --> 00:09:09.840
Um and we've seen a drastic downturn in uh ankle injuries and knee injuries, since that's since they've been doing that every day, right?
00:09:09.919 --> 00:09:14.159
And then all the other benefits that you get from proprioception balance control.
00:09:14.480 --> 00:09:18.159
So and then last May, we decided, hey, let's do this for real.
00:09:18.240 --> 00:09:25.360
Uh and took over the next suite, blew down, blew on the wall, went to about 11,000 square feet, which is what you guys saw when you guys came in.
00:09:25.600 --> 00:09:37.360
And then uh by happenstance, uh coach John Hyzinga walked into my my facility one day, and I knew who he was because I have a son that's a pitcher, and I've always wanted to work with him.
00:09:37.519 --> 00:09:41.600
Um, he apparently knew who I was and what we were doing over there and loved the boards as well.
00:09:41.759 --> 00:09:46.320
Um, obviously, his resume speaks for itself with some of the big big league guys that he works with.
00:09:46.399 --> 00:09:50.720
Um, and so he goes, Hey, I need a home and I want to train your son also.
00:09:50.960 --> 00:09:54.799
And I said, Well, I need a great pitching coach, and I want you to train my son also.
00:09:55.120 --> 00:09:59.679
So uh we started we started that way, and I just didn't really know.
00:09:59.840 --> 00:10:14.159
I knew where he needed to be at for that stuff, but I was really guarded also about you know protecting our brand and protecting that, and really quickly I realized that he's a brother more than he's anything else, and he's family to me now, and it didn't take very long to get there.
00:10:14.399 --> 00:10:17.919
And so very quickly I said, Hey, I want to build this with you.
00:10:18.080 --> 00:10:22.080
Like, you know, he's got some he's been involved in other facilities in the past.
00:10:22.240 --> 00:10:27.600
I said, Look, we don't need to put anything in paper, but this is gonna be ours, and let's build it and let's go, right?
00:10:27.679 --> 00:10:32.720
And so um he runs all of our pitching operations over there, everything head in toe, right?
00:10:32.799 --> 00:10:37.039
And uh now we're actually trying to make sure that don't burn him out as much as we possibly can.
00:10:37.120 --> 00:10:38.240
So that's the new thing, right?
00:10:38.320 --> 00:10:40.879
Like you guys saw we were offseason, we're there from 8 a.m.
00:10:41.039 --> 00:10:41.759
until 9 p.m.
00:10:41.919 --> 00:10:44.399
every night, and he'll do it because he loves the guys, right?
00:10:44.480 --> 00:10:45.919
He loves the kids, he loves the guys.
00:10:46.080 --> 00:11:00.320
I I'm still a believer that he can be making a ton of money in the big leagues, just being a pitching coach, um, but he's choosing to stay and pass his knowledge on to the younger guys and grooming the next the next you know realm of uh big leaguers coming up.
00:11:00.480 --> 00:11:10.799
So um, yeah, I mean, long-winded long-winded answer to your to your question, but that's kind of where we started and where we are now, and we're just continuing to add pieces onto there, right?
00:11:10.879 --> 00:11:12.320
We're very pitching-centric.
00:11:12.399 --> 00:11:12.720
We are.
00:11:12.799 --> 00:11:17.840
We have some great hitting coaches over there, and then you know, Jess Pacheco is my right hand over there.
00:11:17.919 --> 00:11:23.279
She's our she does everything on the performance side um the house, and she's my number two.
00:11:23.360 --> 00:11:27.919
So that whenever I'm not there, she's kind of the mom, she's the mother of the den, right?
00:11:28.000 --> 00:11:30.320
So even thing is like, I don't know, ask Jess.
00:11:30.399 --> 00:11:32.080
And I asked, I tell ask Jess, I don't know.
00:11:32.240 --> 00:11:34.720
Like, I'm just in the background, Jess will tell me what she needs, right?
00:11:34.879 --> 00:11:38.879
So um, yeah, that's you know, in a nutshell, that's where we're at.
00:11:38.960 --> 00:11:52.879
And we've been very, very fortunate to partner some companies like yourselves and bring in some of the best equipment in the world that people don't have anywhere else, and being able to test it and validate it, and then show them what it does with our athletes, right?
00:11:52.960 --> 00:12:06.720
Because we have about the guys of yesterday like 87 full-time members, which is high school from you know age 10 up, probably is 85% of those being high schoolers, and um, we're getting ready to go in our summer season.
00:12:06.799 --> 00:12:08.799
So those guys get introduced to everything, right?
00:12:08.879 --> 00:12:18.799
So they get introduced to your guys' equipment, to the other product that we have in there, not only to say, hey, look at the cool, flashy things you have, but to really understand what it does, right?
00:12:18.960 --> 00:12:25.679
And so there's a full they they have what their routines are for post-throwing, pre-throwing, um, all of that.
00:12:25.759 --> 00:12:29.679
And so they they get a little taste of what the big league guys get when they're in there.
00:12:29.759 --> 00:12:41.919
And that's what's important to us is because I've asked plenty of pro scouts, you know, what's the difference between, you know, a holiday boy that's a great athlete, but his dad is an all-time big big leaguer, right?
00:12:42.080 --> 00:12:47.039
And then another athlete that's out there and and is a great athlete, they all say the same thing.
00:12:47.120 --> 00:12:53.200
Uh, they know what it takes to be a big leader, they've been in the locker rooms, they've been through all that stuff, they know the train is, they know what the life is.
00:12:53.279 --> 00:12:55.759
So the moment's not too big for them when they get there.
00:12:55.840 --> 00:13:12.159
And so that's really the dynamic that we're trying to build inside of our facility is that you know, when you walk into our facility in the offseason and there's a Matthew Livatore or a Dennis Santana throwing bullpins next to you, and you're 15, 16 years old, that's a big deal, right?
00:13:12.240 --> 00:13:16.799
But we're getting that out of their system right now because now it's like, oh, hey, you know, oh hey, what's up, Santana?
00:13:16.960 --> 00:13:17.360
How are you doing?
00:13:17.440 --> 00:13:25.759
It's just one of those those guys hang around, they're great with our with our athletes, they coach them, they they they want to be around those guys and pass their knowledge on.
00:13:25.840 --> 00:13:27.840
Um, and so it's it's really a clubhouse feel.
00:13:27.919 --> 00:13:30.879
We it's it's passing it down the line to the next guy that comes up.
00:13:31.039 --> 00:13:36.559
So you know, and and that's a lot said, but it's still, in my opinion, was underplayed.
00:13:36.639 --> 00:13:39.440
It is one of those facilities that will never leave your mind.
00:13:39.519 --> 00:13:46.080
And in my opinion, at least this is how I felt when the first time I was in there, um, it was the best part of the trip.
00:13:46.240 --> 00:13:57.360
You know, uh, first of all, I love out-of-the-box training, people who are willing to kind of push the envelope and try new things and and do things that are often different, um, maybe a little unorthodox.
00:13:57.679 --> 00:14:02.799
I think that's where where the lines are crossed, and you know, you you have greatness that happens.
00:14:03.200 --> 00:14:18.639
Um, but it's your your place is literally like science meets high-tech equipment meets uh, you know, high-level athletes, and you combine all that together with great coaching, great backgrounds that, you know, with you know, the facility you have and the people you have.
00:14:18.879 --> 00:14:25.519
Um, it was a mecca of uh you know, a wonderful world of uh you know just training in general.
00:14:25.679 --> 00:14:27.039
You know, I couldn't say enough about it.
00:14:27.200 --> 00:14:31.759
You know, we we can talk about it all day, but you have to literally be there and feel that energy.
00:14:31.919 --> 00:14:34.799
And uh it was energy the entire time.
00:14:35.679 --> 00:14:36.399
I appreciate it.
00:14:36.480 --> 00:14:36.879
Thank you.
00:14:38.000 --> 00:14:45.120
So uh one of my questions uh kind of going along with that, you know, you uh you you kind of pull them at the at a young age.
00:14:45.360 --> 00:14:47.679
What what is the what is the difference in training?
00:14:47.840 --> 00:14:52.639
Are you putting the the the younger athletes through a very similar buildup?
00:14:52.960 --> 00:14:57.679
Or you know, what is that what is that like with you know using the younger athletes with the technology?
00:14:57.840 --> 00:14:59.039
Does it change at all?
00:14:59.360 --> 00:15:00.159
Uh yeah, for sure.
00:15:00.240 --> 00:15:03.840
I mean, I think that actually our younger, so we call them our futures, right?
00:15:03.919 --> 00:15:08.399
So that's our that's our anybody under 13, so non-high school, we call them our futures members, right?
00:15:08.559 --> 00:15:23.360
So um they do they spend a ton of time on the boards, they spend less time on like really cool equipment like your guys' so much because there's there's you know, there's a lot to be said about your you're you're you're you're doing that, you're doing direct current with a with a 10-year-old, right?
00:15:23.519 --> 00:15:27.519
So um they do they do they do do a lot of stuff in the performance center as well.
00:15:27.679 --> 00:15:29.759
That's a lot of things why it's really hard.
00:15:29.840 --> 00:15:32.879
You can't just go on and sign up for a membership at our facility.
00:15:32.960 --> 00:15:33.840
You have to come in and meet with us.
00:15:33.919 --> 00:15:36.559
So I want you to understand where we are, what we're doing, right?
00:15:36.639 --> 00:15:37.360
It's a path.
00:15:37.519 --> 00:15:46.559
I tell everybody I'm like, I don't want your athlete for three months in the summertime, I want them for five years until they go to college and then want to come back and do the same thing, right?
00:15:46.720 --> 00:15:49.200
So um, that's really kind of where where we are.
00:15:49.279 --> 00:15:56.799
Is they the futures they spend a lot of time on our boards, they spend a lot of time doing their movement and learning how to how to lift, learning how to do all that stuff.
00:15:56.879 --> 00:16:02.399
And then um, you know, our high schoolers have access to our facility seven days a week from 6 a.m.
00:16:02.559 --> 00:16:03.279
to 11 p.m.
00:16:03.440 --> 00:16:05.120
They have an app they can scan in.
00:16:05.279 --> 00:16:13.039
The the futures, they obviously don't have that, they have to be in a group class, so they're being kind of ushered around in the groups as they as they go.
00:16:13.120 --> 00:16:15.840
They set up for groups they want to be in and they go that way.
00:16:15.919 --> 00:16:19.840
So there's definitely a lot more hand holding with those guys and they graduate, right?
00:16:19.919 --> 00:16:23.519
Just like anything else, you have to graduate to the next level and get a little more freedom.
00:16:23.600 --> 00:16:36.480
Um, and then you know, so they they they can do up to three movement classes, which is in our weight room, they're doing they're on our boards doing proprioception work, and then they're you know using PVC pipes, learning how to do the movements, learning how to do all that stuff.
00:16:36.639 --> 00:16:48.159
And what we found over the last 18 months is that when you have that 12, 13 year old that's starting to go through puberty, and we tell everybody, I'm like, everybody's time to lift is different, in our opinion.
00:16:48.399 --> 00:16:51.200
It really depends on because everybody's puberty is different as well.
00:16:51.279 --> 00:16:55.279
Like it's a it's a kind of a decision that we all make together in the families and all that as well.
00:16:55.519 --> 00:17:03.039
And when it's they already know the proper movements, when it's time to add weight, it's amazing how fast those numbers go up.
00:17:03.360 --> 00:17:12.240
Like we're see, we we've seen in a matter of you know, 60 days having people's broad jumps go up 16, 18 inches in their broad jump, right?
00:17:12.400 --> 00:17:23.920
Verticals going up two or three inches because they know how to lift, they know the proper movements, and we're adding weight, and we're and then obviously that and everything else is going on in their body uh helps escalate all that.
00:17:24.000 --> 00:17:27.920
So that looks good on our part also, but it really it's it's safer for the athlete, right?
00:17:28.000 --> 00:17:34.160
So then they're we're not we're not spending time teaching them how to lift when they're they're underweight, which is when they can get hurt.
00:17:34.240 --> 00:17:36.160
So so yes, it is different.
00:17:36.240 --> 00:17:40.960
And then um on the on the lifting side and the performance side, but then the baseball side, it's very much the same.
00:17:41.119 --> 00:17:43.759
They're same coaches, same everything else.
00:17:43.839 --> 00:17:46.000
Uh, they go through all the same stuff.
00:17:46.160 --> 00:17:50.079
We have uh, you know, Coach Zinger, his throwing classes, right?
00:17:50.160 --> 00:17:51.119
We're big on group work.
00:17:51.279 --> 00:17:55.440
Like I know there's this place, there's a place for one-on-ones, but we think we can get a lot done with the group.
00:17:55.519 --> 00:18:02.240
If you talk to our pro guys, they want to throw in groups as well because you can't throw baseball for an hour, you can't hit a baseball for an hour, you're gonna get diminished results.
00:18:02.480 --> 00:18:04.559
So we we love our groups, right?
00:18:04.640 --> 00:18:11.759
So we have our young guns, we call it for our 13 and under throwing group, and then we have our fuel chuckers for the guys that are older, right?
00:18:11.920 --> 00:18:15.519
They're doing the same things, they just are not, they're obviously not throwing as fast.
00:18:15.599 --> 00:18:21.680
And we had the the younger guys, we've got to move around a little quicker and and make more drills so they're to keep their attention span kind of going.
00:18:21.839 --> 00:18:23.759
Um, but yeah, they're learning the exact same thing.
00:18:23.839 --> 00:18:26.799
And then we we throw in the breath work in those classes with them as well.
00:18:26.880 --> 00:18:29.359
We we we throw in the the visualization.
00:18:29.440 --> 00:18:36.799
We've tried to segment those classes out on their own, but no, no kid's gonna sign up for a visualization class or a breath work class.
00:18:36.880 --> 00:18:40.720
So now we just implement them to the other thing else and make them do it by force.
00:18:40.799 --> 00:18:42.400
Uh it's kind of the easiest way to do it.
00:18:42.559 --> 00:18:46.400
Uh yeah, so there is a natural progression, right?
00:18:46.480 --> 00:18:55.519
Everybody has a throwing program if when they're in there, they have an arm recovery program because I think arm recovery is arm care is a dying thing right now, and it's crazy to me.
00:18:55.599 --> 00:19:03.119
Um, we do the same thing because obviously we we train 150 volleyball athletes during the winter time too with my daughter's club.
00:19:03.519 --> 00:19:06.640
And I've asked our coach, I'm like, Do you guys do an arm care program?
00:19:06.720 --> 00:19:09.680
And and nobody does in volleyball, which is crazy now.
00:19:10.000 --> 00:19:12.160
Like, I'm like, why do these girls not have bands?
00:19:12.240 --> 00:19:13.599
Why are they not doing everything else?
00:19:13.680 --> 00:19:17.599
And so we start implementing that stuff into our training there because it's the same thing.
00:19:17.680 --> 00:19:20.880
Like, I mean, these girls are it's the same motion, right?
00:19:20.960 --> 00:19:22.319
Like, why are we not trying to take care of them?
00:19:23.119 --> 00:19:24.480
They're not warming up, they're not doing that.
00:19:24.559 --> 00:19:26.240
We discussed that when you guys were out a little bit too.
00:19:26.400 --> 00:19:33.599
Like, it's crazy to me that the amount of you know, athletes that don't take care of their arms and their shoulders and that stuff.
00:19:33.680 --> 00:19:35.680
So I'm glad we're going to.
00:19:36.000 --> 00:19:46.079
You know, you you've uh you've had you've introduced at least me to some technology I've never seen before, which says a lot because we work that world, we're in that business.
00:19:46.240 --> 00:19:51.200
Um, I've heard about some of these, and the first time I saw them was when when I went to your facility.
00:19:51.599 --> 00:19:53.599
Um, obviously you don't pull everything in.
00:19:53.759 --> 00:20:00.400
Uh what what is the vetting process for you where you're like, okay, this is something we can we can keep in here.
00:20:00.720 --> 00:20:05.839
You know, what's that testing process like where you know you can risk it on your athletes and you're gonna see some results?
00:20:06.400 --> 00:20:07.359
Me and Jinger.
00:20:10.319 --> 00:20:11.680
We'll try just about anything, right?
00:20:11.759 --> 00:20:17.839
But um, no, I mean, it's you know, this industry is very small, even though it's big, right?
00:20:17.920 --> 00:20:30.240
Like there it is, but um, and so a lot most of everything that we get in and try out and do that stuff, is it comes from somebody that we know and trust that says, hey, we we tried this, you should you should try this out, right?
00:20:30.319 --> 00:20:43.599
There's a few things that we come in and like you know, it's it's I kind of come in and talk to the company and and see where we are and see what you know their their goals are too, because we're all we're no, there's no hiding that we're all in business, right?
00:20:43.680 --> 00:20:44.960
We uh everybody's trying to make money.
00:20:45.039 --> 00:20:47.039
So nobody wants to just give their product away.
00:20:47.119 --> 00:20:49.359
I don't want to give product away any of that stuff as well.
00:20:49.440 --> 00:20:52.319
So like we just try to find you know what the best result is for everybody.
00:20:52.480 --> 00:20:58.640
But if it's something that we really think that the athletes can you know benefit from, then yeah, we'll bring it in and we'll try it for a little while.
00:20:58.720 --> 00:21:04.960
We and usually Zinger, it is Zinger and myself and a couple other guys are the guinea pigs, and we just kind of run through that, right?
00:21:05.039 --> 00:21:12.240
I mean, there's a there's a there's a our fight club club that we call it here for your guys' stuff, you know, the 100 club, we can get to 100, right?
00:21:13.599 --> 00:21:15.039
That's just our own stuff on the back end.
00:21:15.119 --> 00:21:15.920
Like, hey, here we go.
00:21:16.160 --> 00:21:17.119
What are we gonna do, right?
00:21:17.200 --> 00:21:19.039
So um, I don't drink coffee from the works.
00:21:19.200 --> 00:21:21.519
I stand on these little cool pads that you that we have right here.
00:21:22.559 --> 00:21:24.160
We might get to 100, right?
00:21:24.319 --> 00:21:26.559
So um it's just stuff like that.
00:21:26.640 --> 00:21:32.160
But no, I mean we we we've had a long time before that, especially obviously we get to the offseason.
00:21:32.319 --> 00:21:35.200
The the big league guys have everything in the world thrown at them.
00:21:35.279 --> 00:21:36.000
We know that, right?
00:21:36.079 --> 00:21:46.960
And so they don't they they trust Zinger, they trust us to know what's real and what's not, and so we're very guarded about that stuff because it's really our reputation as well, right?
00:21:47.039 --> 00:21:55.759
I mean, if Zinger goes and puts something on on a Tiger Scooby and something bad happens, well, it's not good for him, and it's not good for Terra, it's not good for anybody, right?
00:21:55.920 --> 00:21:57.519
So uh that that kind of stuff.
00:21:57.599 --> 00:22:01.519
Um, so yeah, I mean, I'm I'm all Years because I don't know everything.
00:22:01.680 --> 00:22:06.319
I know I don't know a lot about a lot, but I'm all ears and I want to learn, right?
00:22:06.400 --> 00:22:09.200
Because it's not only for the business and for our athletes, but it's personal.
00:22:09.279 --> 00:22:14.960
I have a son that we're you know trying to help do the best that he can with his with his athletic talent.
00:22:15.119 --> 00:22:20.720
And you know, I want to be able to build his toolbox of stuff that he has too because there is there is a difference.
00:22:20.880 --> 00:22:22.880
I mean, everything's changing, right?
00:22:22.960 --> 00:22:32.880
So if we're if we're staying ahead of that curve for our athletes, where our athletes are gonna have a competitive advantage when they go out there, and not just a competitive advantage, but I I loop in recovery into that too, right?
00:22:32.960 --> 00:22:35.519
Like your competitive advantage is how you're recovering.
00:22:35.680 --> 00:22:41.680
Um, you know, and I can speak to like with Chase, my son, like he has a dedicated recovery routine every single day.
00:22:42.160 --> 00:22:42.400
Right?
00:22:42.480 --> 00:22:50.720
I mean, it's you know, he's BFRing every single day with the BFR recovery stuff, which I we showed you guys, and we're and he does the neurotics, you know.
00:22:50.960 --> 00:22:53.599
This machine's part of everyday life for him, right?
00:22:53.759 --> 00:22:56.640
Like it's it's every day we're we're doing that.
00:22:56.720 --> 00:23:02.400
If we're if we're throwing, then we're pancaking it and doing the the first sensation that we would that you showed me when you guys were out here, right?
00:23:02.480 --> 00:23:03.440
And that's been a big thing for us.
00:23:03.599 --> 00:23:14.480
You had the blood flow through there, and he's cold plunging, we're doing all this stuff, like it's very regimented that way, and we try to bring that over and give that ability for the for for our other athletes in the facility to be able to do that as well.
00:23:14.640 --> 00:23:26.480
So um it's you know, not everybody does it, which is fine because it's not for everybody, but we we try to be able to have that there for the guys that want to use it and the guys that do, obviously, we we see big results.
00:23:26.880 --> 00:23:33.359
Boy, I love your mindset on recovery, and Mason, you can chime in on this too because your background is going to be able to speak really well to it.
00:23:33.599 --> 00:23:47.440
But um, but it's one of the things we always try to talk about is you know, people are always asking me how often should we use you know direct current, you know, you know, what are the you know, what are the steps to that, you know, how how many times a day if we do it every day?
00:23:47.599 --> 00:23:49.680
And you're talking about recovery every day.
00:23:49.759 --> 00:23:57.359
And that's one of the things to me is constantly overlooked on how you know how well I've seen direct current work just on the recovery side.
00:23:57.519 --> 00:24:01.519
And perhaps the most important during season is is your recovery.
00:24:01.680 --> 00:24:03.680
So I love that you're leaning in on that.
00:24:04.000 --> 00:24:14.079
Um, what are the results with direct current that you've seen that um you're not seeing with other technologies that you know that direct current is just gonna give you those better results?
00:24:14.799 --> 00:24:15.200
Yeah.
00:24:15.440 --> 00:24:19.119
Um, this is my non-medical site because I'm obviously not a medical professional at all, right?
00:24:19.359 --> 00:24:20.400
No, no, no, yeah, neither am I.
00:24:20.720 --> 00:24:22.960
It's the dad observation, what we have there too, right?
00:24:23.359 --> 00:24:34.319
One of my biggest things I told you guys the same thing is like I don't claim to be an expert in anything, but I value in being really good at bringing the experts and everything into one room and and finding what that works right, right?
00:24:34.400 --> 00:24:37.279
And I'm observationally based, I can see what happens, right?
00:24:37.359 --> 00:24:45.039
And you know, with with Chase, for instance, you know, he's doing the he's doing now, he's doing before he was only using it for recovery.
00:24:45.119 --> 00:24:50.079
He's like, I I'm not bought into the you know using it pre-game.
00:24:50.799 --> 00:24:51.119
No.
00:24:51.599 --> 00:24:53.519
And now he's starting to play with that.
00:24:53.599 --> 00:24:56.160
He's like, man, I feel like I'm ready to go so much faster.
00:24:56.319 --> 00:25:05.119
He's like, I feel like I said, you don't understand this, Chase, because you're 16 and you don't drink coffee, but it's like drinking coffee or an energy drink before you go anywhere else or pre-workout, right?
00:25:05.359 --> 00:25:06.799
That this is his pre-workout, right?
00:25:06.880 --> 00:25:07.599
This is what it is.
00:25:07.680 --> 00:25:11.039
Like, and so now that's starting to we notice it.
00:25:11.279 --> 00:25:16.960
He feels like he's told me he feels like it takes him less time to get his arm ready to go if he's pitching, right?
00:25:17.039 --> 00:25:17.920
Or any of that stuff.
00:25:18.079 --> 00:25:21.599
And you know, he's got giant tree trunk legs, same thing.
00:25:21.680 --> 00:25:22.559
Like, let's get going.
00:25:23.039 --> 00:25:28.559
If we can do this while he's sitting in the locker room, getting ready to go, throwing it on there, let's go.
00:25:28.640 --> 00:25:35.759
And then he's out there and and on the field, and he's feel he feels like he's ready to go looser, warmed up, faster, if that makes sense, right?
00:25:35.839 --> 00:25:38.319
And then obviously we're using the on the back end as well.
00:25:38.400 --> 00:25:41.680
And then in the facility, we obviously have the bigger unit, and so we do the same thing.
00:25:41.839 --> 00:25:45.359
We'll we'll get him in there, and before he throws bullpins, we'll put him on there.
00:25:45.440 --> 00:25:47.200
And that's what we're doing with a lot of the guys now.
00:25:47.279 --> 00:25:51.440
Like a lot of the guys that are uh in there throwing bullpins, that's part of their bullpen session, right?
00:25:51.519 --> 00:25:58.720
If their bullpins, their time is three o'clock to be on the on the the mound to throw their bullpen, then they're there earlier getting their arm work done.
00:25:58.799 --> 00:26:03.440
We'll put them in the the room, get them on the nervotics as well, get them kind of fiery and firing.
00:26:03.599 --> 00:26:07.200
If they like to shift weight, we'll put them on the shift wave chair before then, and vice versa, right?
00:26:07.279 --> 00:26:11.519
And then we just kind of go go through that, and it's every everybody's process is a little different.
00:26:11.599 --> 00:26:14.720
And that's that's the main thing I tell everybody because like, well, how do we use it?
00:26:14.799 --> 00:26:20.240
I'm like, look, greatest thing you guys have is the playbook that we everybody has access to with your product, right?
00:26:20.319 --> 00:26:25.519
But I'm like, no one's no one's regimen's gonna be the same, everyone's different.
00:26:25.599 --> 00:26:33.680
You got to figure out kind of what you what works for you, and that's what they have and we've noticed with all the biggest guys that use it coming in there, is that everybody kind of is a little bit different, right?
00:26:33.759 --> 00:26:37.039
So they they like this, they don't like that, they like this, they feel better in that.
00:26:37.119 --> 00:26:39.920
And so it's just trying to kind of help them guide that.
00:26:40.079 --> 00:26:43.119
Um, but overall, like I tell everybody the same thing.
00:26:43.200 --> 00:26:46.240
And by no means do I say it's placebo effect, but I tell everybody the same thing.
00:26:46.319 --> 00:26:48.079
I'm like, I don't even care if it is.
00:26:48.240 --> 00:26:51.440
If it is placebo effect, like if it works, it works, right?
00:26:51.519 --> 00:26:54.319
Like, if I I I've used the analogy with Chase forever.
00:26:54.480 --> 00:27:05.680
I said, hey, if if Coach Zinger tells you that if you were a two-two to the park every day and you bounced around on your left leg and spun before you went out to the field that it would make you a big league, would you do it?
00:27:05.759 --> 00:27:06.319
He's like, Yeah.
00:27:06.480 --> 00:27:10.799
I'm like, well, don't try that, Mason.
00:27:11.920 --> 00:27:12.720
Right, yeah.
00:27:13.200 --> 00:27:17.279
Chase has to let us know when he's gonna do that because we've got to make sure that the cameras are there.
00:27:18.319 --> 00:27:20.079
It's just it's it's nothing, right?
00:27:20.160 --> 00:27:24.799
It's it's trying to I see it, I see the confidence in the athlete, I guess, too, right?
00:27:24.880 --> 00:27:27.599
So that's the difference that I really can kind of see on there.
00:27:27.759 --> 00:27:30.160
The athletes are telling us what they feel, they feel better.
00:27:30.319 --> 00:27:32.160
I know personally, um, we've talked about this.
00:27:32.240 --> 00:27:37.359
You know, I was in a car accident in September, and I've used your other stuff religiously now.
00:27:37.519 --> 00:27:42.240
And when you guys brought up the DX for us and we have that, like, I don't ever go anywhere.
00:27:42.559 --> 00:27:45.440
If Chase doesn't have it, it's in my it's in my bag with me all the time, right?
00:27:45.599 --> 00:27:51.119
And you know, perfect case example, we were in Vegas uh three weeks ago for my daughter's volleyball tournament.
00:27:51.200 --> 00:27:58.000
Well, walking on the concrete for three solid days and sleeping in hotel beds, all that, like my back was barking, it was not good.
00:27:58.079 --> 00:28:01.599
And so I was literally sitting at the game with the DX on my back.
00:28:01.759 --> 00:28:04.079
Wow, and some of the dads are like, What is that?
00:28:04.160 --> 00:28:07.519
Like, and I'm like, I thought I started talking about it, and they're like, Oh, okay, cool.
00:28:07.759 --> 00:28:09.920
And that just peaks conversations, right?
00:28:10.000 --> 00:28:19.200
But that's like I'm like, I'm not trying to show, I'm trying to hide it, but like if I can sit here and get you know, relief while I'm doing this, watching my daughter and do two things at one time, great.
00:28:19.359 --> 00:28:20.720
That's what I love about the DX, right?
00:28:20.799 --> 00:28:22.559
Is I can do multiple things now.
00:28:22.720 --> 00:28:24.720
We're pairing that with the BFR at the same time.
00:28:24.799 --> 00:28:27.039
Like the BFR recovery cycle is 30 minutes.
00:28:27.279 --> 00:28:27.839
All right, cool.
00:28:28.000 --> 00:28:30.480
Let's throw this on there for a little bit while we're doing it, right?
00:28:30.559 --> 00:28:38.559
And same thing with Jess, our our uh performance coach, you know, she has a non-surgical torn AC uh Achilles.
00:28:38.720 --> 00:28:39.920
She's been using the foot bath.
00:28:40.000 --> 00:28:41.279
You guys walk into the foot bath, right?
00:28:41.359 --> 00:28:42.960
With the BFR and all that stuff too.
00:28:43.039 --> 00:28:47.119
And she's up hollow around, she's she's now walking with no boot on anymore.
00:28:47.200 --> 00:28:48.640
And it's just it's it's crazy.
00:28:48.799 --> 00:28:50.960
So those those are the testimonials that I love, right?
00:28:51.039 --> 00:28:54.640
Like the real the world world stuff is that the guys are like, oh, okay, I like it.
00:28:54.880 --> 00:29:00.160
Um yeah, I mean, I see, I see the biggest thing for us is like the athletes trust it.
00:29:00.319 --> 00:29:03.519
And when the athletes trust it, they can kind of go out and let it and let it go.
00:29:03.680 --> 00:29:07.119
Um, and that's where I think the huge benefit is for us.
00:29:07.440 --> 00:29:15.599
You know, I think Oh, please go ahead, no, I think we saw that too firsthand um that morning where we went out to ASU and did bullpen.
00:29:15.839 --> 00:29:27.519
You know, I don't I don't want to throw anybody under the bus, but like take Devo, for example, where we had him brought him over, and within a couple of minutes of him standing on the pads, it was the facial expressions and watching the eyebrows kind of raise a little bit.
00:29:27.680 --> 00:29:32.559
And um, from there, it's really just a snowball effect of other guys are watching and looking.
00:29:32.640 --> 00:29:36.480
Um, I think that echoes the group aspect that you kind of spoke to.
00:29:36.640 --> 00:29:49.279
Um, and just how you know, for that bullpen session, guys are only throwing for maybe 10-15 minutes, but they're learning for another hour, hour and a half as they're bouncing around, talking to all the guys, um, bouncing ideas off of each other, too.
00:29:49.680 --> 00:29:50.079
Absolutely.
00:29:50.319 --> 00:29:53.920
Debo's the the main culprit, he's the president of the 100 club in our place.
00:29:54.000 --> 00:29:56.480
So yeah, you can throw the bus all you want to.
00:29:56.640 --> 00:29:57.200
I love that guy.
00:29:57.920 --> 00:29:59.519
He's like, You got this, let's go.
00:29:59.599 --> 00:30:01.680
And I'm like, dude, this is all right, let's go.
00:30:02.319 --> 00:30:02.880
It's awesome.
00:30:03.039 --> 00:30:07.519
Like, and that same day is when you put me on the the arm workout, right?
00:30:07.599 --> 00:30:10.799
And I'll tell you what, I was like, people like the next day, they're just like, How do you feel?
00:30:10.880 --> 00:30:14.880
Like, I feel like I did the biggest arm curl workout of my life yesterday.
00:30:14.960 --> 00:30:15.440
It's awesome.
00:30:15.920 --> 00:30:16.400
I love it.
00:30:16.480 --> 00:30:16.880
It's funny.
00:30:16.960 --> 00:30:26.000
We've we've uh we had a chance to play with a little bit here at the house, doing that stuff too, you know, doing some some glute work on it and and all that, the abs, and it's just it's it's a good time.
00:30:26.079 --> 00:30:26.559
I I love it.
00:30:26.720 --> 00:30:39.039
Like I said, I I I religiously use it probably at least three or four times a week now, just for maintenance to make sure that like because you know, I'm I'm 42, play football, like things are not okay in my back anyways.
00:30:39.119 --> 00:30:48.720
And the car accident on top of that stuff, you know, is is really was was did a lot to it, but that was my thing is that we can kind of I can maintain now, right?
00:30:48.799 --> 00:30:52.079
I'm I'm back to being healthy for from that, but now I can maintain it.
00:30:52.240 --> 00:30:56.559
We don't start going down that that rabbit hole of where then we have to go and get treatment and all that.
00:30:56.720 --> 00:31:04.319
So you know, another thing, just kind of the way you use your technology, um, it pairs really well with direct current.
00:31:04.480 --> 00:31:09.279
I mean, one of the things I say is we we do really well when you merge it with something like BFR.
00:31:09.440 --> 00:31:13.839
Um, you had a you had us on that that plate first time I ever saw that was amazing.
00:31:14.000 --> 00:31:22.240
And then to do it with direct current, and then some of some of your other like movements and um concoctions that you've come up with, pretty amazing stuff.
00:31:22.400 --> 00:31:32.400
You know, the I hope the kids that go there understand how well they have it made because they're seeing technologies that even some MLB players don't have access to yet.
00:31:32.640 --> 00:31:40.880
You know, um, while direct current is in every locker room at this point, I don't believe every athlete is easily getting access to it.
00:31:41.039 --> 00:31:51.759
So the fact that they can go to your facility and get all these state-of-the-art technologies and then you merge them together in a way that I think is the future, uh, says a lot about your place.
00:31:52.160 --> 00:31:52.960
I appreciate that.
00:31:54.240 --> 00:31:55.119
What we're trying to do, right?
00:31:55.200 --> 00:32:03.759
And it's ever evolving, like you said, like every day there's new stuff that's that's coming out and doing that stuff in different ways of trying stuff, and a lot is trial and error for us, right?
00:32:03.839 --> 00:32:08.720
Like that's how we've gotten a lot of this stuff, but using you know, your guys' uh you showed the beginning in the intro video, right?
00:32:08.799 --> 00:32:16.319
Of Alex on the board with the bowling pin and the direct current on our on our React board at the same time, like everything's fired at that point in time.
00:32:16.400 --> 00:32:19.440
So, like you're getting you're getting a lot of stuff on there, and it's good.
00:32:19.519 --> 00:32:20.720
I mean, the guys love it, right?
00:32:20.799 --> 00:32:26.079
Because you know, Alex Fam is another one, like he's a big proponent of our board and the direct current and all that stuff too.
00:32:26.160 --> 00:32:33.359
He's in a Baltimore organization, and he's like, you know, he is one of the first pro guys to adopt everything they're doing.
00:32:33.440 --> 00:32:34.960
He's like, I'm all in, let's go.
00:32:35.119 --> 00:32:35.839
I want to get there.
00:32:36.000 --> 00:32:43.039
And when he left this year, uh I asked him, I said, Hey, what were you throwing VLO wise going into uh spring training last year?
00:32:43.119 --> 00:32:47.359
He's like, I was 87, 88, you know, topping out there at the beginning of spring training.
00:32:47.440 --> 00:32:49.599
I was like, okay, and I was like, What did you throw today in your bullet?
00:32:49.839 --> 00:32:52.079
And I didn't get the answer, but he's like 94.
00:32:52.160 --> 00:32:53.759
I'm like, Yep, let's go, right?
00:32:53.839 --> 00:32:56.960
But he was one of those guys that dove in there, he's there every day, all day.
00:32:57.119 --> 00:33:03.200
He was doing the BFR, he's doing the the reacts, he's doing the you know, the the neurotics, all that stuff.
00:33:03.359 --> 00:33:10.799
He was fully immersed in everything we what we have, and I think that in today's society, a lot of people are worried about what it looks like, right?
00:33:10.960 --> 00:33:13.200
You know, take Zinger, for instance.
00:33:13.279 --> 00:33:17.279
I mean, we have weekly Sedona trips and he doesn't wear shoes, like he's my barefoot yet.
00:33:18.240 --> 00:33:22.079
Right, it's 120 degrees outside, he's walking on the asphalt with no shoes on.
00:33:22.160 --> 00:33:38.640
Like, I my feet scream just watching him, so it's just it is that way too, but he has a unique way of communicating with the athletes and making a connection that way too, and that's what makes what we have special, and and that's why I feel like psychic about everybody to get up and go to work.
00:33:38.720 --> 00:33:49.359
So one thing I'll say too with that, John is um, you know, from the outside looking in for people, they view, they see the big room with the cages and they see all the technology and whatnot.
00:33:49.519 --> 00:33:55.839
Um, and just think of just this melting pot of different uh performance abilities and technologies there.
00:33:56.160 --> 00:34:04.720
But I think one thing that you highlighted a little bit uh early in our conversation is the fact that you guys are pulling all of these different professionals into a room.
00:34:04.799 --> 00:34:08.000
You're pulling the representatives from these companies into a room.
00:34:08.239 --> 00:34:14.079
You guys have a medical director there at Prime that you know advises you on these different technologies.
00:34:14.320 --> 00:34:22.639
And I think just as cool as being in the cages with the guys that afternoon was when we came back the second night just to drop some things off and say bye to you guys.
00:34:22.800 --> 00:34:29.039
And there was probably 10 of us back in your office just roundtabling about different technologies, different ideas.
00:34:29.199 --> 00:34:36.880
And it was just this meeting of the minds, like you had mentioned, that that's the work that I think the guys and parents may not see.
00:34:37.119 --> 00:34:45.519
Um, but that's the time that you guys are taking to put into investing into these technologies, these protocols, these plans for each individual athlete.
00:34:45.760 --> 00:34:54.159
And I think that's what can separate um facilities from what is becoming an ever so saturated possibly world of these facilities.
00:34:54.480 --> 00:35:01.360
But are all these facilities putting the time and effort in like you guys are at Prime and going to the experts and finding that?
00:35:01.599 --> 00:35:03.039
Probably not as much as you guys are.
00:35:03.119 --> 00:35:08.559
So, again, another testament to the effort and the work that you guys put in for all your athletes.
00:35:08.880 --> 00:35:09.679
Yeah, I appreciate it.
00:35:09.920 --> 00:35:10.320
I love it.
00:35:10.400 --> 00:35:22.800
Like, I mean, there's a there's a video that our videography team put out there, and it's with the guys from uh Owens Recovery Science and Tyler White who developed the developed the uh BFR throwing program, right?
00:35:22.880 --> 00:35:26.960
And it's it's all of us at the Wigwarm Resort down here around the fire.
00:35:27.280 --> 00:35:37.280
And it's Chase is the only athletes up there, and it's just it's all of us round tabling for hours, smoking stoggies, talking about how we're gonna implement this and how it's gonna change the world and what we're doing, right?
00:35:37.360 --> 00:35:38.719
And it's that's the 300%.
00:35:38.960 --> 00:35:39.760
That's what I love about it.
00:35:39.840 --> 00:35:42.960
Like that night when you guys all over there, like that's just fun for me.
00:35:43.039 --> 00:35:46.239
Like I get lost back in that room, and nobody's allowed on that side, really.
00:35:46.320 --> 00:35:49.119
And so you're right, the parents don't see that part, but that's okay.
00:35:49.360 --> 00:35:52.719
I don't need I don't need them to know, you know, oh, hey, look what we're doing.
00:35:52.800 --> 00:35:54.480
I just want them to be able to see the results, right?
00:35:54.559 --> 00:36:03.440
When when they're and that's the hardest part for us, is because parents aren't allowed in the facility because we want the athletes to have the time to be able to go in there and fail and do what they need to do without mom and dad.
00:36:03.519 --> 00:36:05.119
And that's come through trial and error too.
00:36:05.199 --> 00:36:08.480
Like Chase even tells me, he's like, Dad, we're good, but I see you over there watching me.
00:36:08.559 --> 00:36:10.639
Like, I see that's how I stay out of there when he's training, right?
00:36:10.719 --> 00:36:11.360
It's it's that.
00:36:11.840 --> 00:36:19.280
But at the same time, when the parents see the results and they'll see that they'll see the athletic ability go through the roof, right?
00:36:19.440 --> 00:36:32.239
Or when we send in the when we send them the printouts of the assessment numbers from one from you know X time to three months later and what they're seeing, then they start really understanding that, and like that's where it all comes in.
00:36:32.320 --> 00:36:42.480
And people, I mean, if you all you gotta do is spend five minutes with Coach Zinger and or Coach Jess, and you understand that they they genuinely care about the the athletes and and their success, and that's what's important.
00:36:42.639 --> 00:36:48.960
So yeah, yeah, you guys are all a bunch of first first people in, last people out, um, all on the same team.
00:36:49.039 --> 00:36:50.079
So yeah, absolutely.
00:36:50.320 --> 00:36:53.039
Yeah, uh Mason just took it the words right out of my mouth.
00:36:53.199 --> 00:37:01.679
Uh these you're you're all a team that has the passion, it's not just about um whatever a business or making money.
00:37:01.760 --> 00:37:06.079
I understand like that's how that's how you keep the pulse going and that's how you stay, you know, stay afloat.
00:37:06.239 --> 00:37:12.719
But the passion, you you can't fake that, you know, it it comes out, and I you certainly see it in the players as well.
00:37:12.880 --> 00:37:15.599
You know, like they they feel it, and you can tell they feel it.
00:37:15.920 --> 00:37:17.199
You mentioned confidence.
00:37:17.599 --> 00:37:25.760
Uh that's key in in a sport that you know you're you have to prepare yourself to fail more than you succeed because that's how the sport is.
00:37:26.239 --> 00:37:35.679
Um you have found a way to get these athletes believing in themselves, whether it takes the technology or or unique individuals like yourself or or coach zinger.
00:37:36.000 --> 00:37:41.599
Um, you know, it's it's leading by example, and it's just it's really uh it's humbling to see.
00:37:42.000 --> 00:37:42.800
I appreciate that.
00:37:42.880 --> 00:37:45.039
And I'm gonna I'll give for your example.
00:37:45.119 --> 00:37:46.639
I'll give a shout out to Coach Jess.
00:37:46.719 --> 00:37:50.239
Like, she literally missed 10 days of work with her tournament Achilles.
00:37:50.320 --> 00:37:53.920
Like she called me, she did it in Mexico on the beach.
00:37:54.000 --> 00:37:55.679
She's like, I'm flying back right now.
00:37:55.840 --> 00:37:58.559
She's like, I'm gonna I go see the surgeon and all that.
00:37:58.719 --> 00:38:00.320
Everybody was like, I was scrapping, okay.
00:38:00.400 --> 00:38:00.960
How are we gonna do this?
00:38:01.039 --> 00:38:05.519
How are we gonna, you know, how are we gonna keep her involved, but make sure we have what we need to have at the facility.
00:38:05.599 --> 00:38:09.760
And you know, she come in, and six days later, she's like, Hey, I'll be back on Monday.
00:38:09.840 --> 00:38:10.880
I'm like, how are you gonna be back on Monday?
00:38:10.960 --> 00:38:13.920
She's like, I got a I got a knee scooter, I have this, I'm good to go.
00:38:14.079 --> 00:38:15.360
And I'm like, all right.
00:38:15.519 --> 00:38:18.800
But it's she though those kids are her are her kids, right?
00:38:18.880 --> 00:38:23.519
Like she genuinely cares about them, and that's where I can't you can't pay anybody to do that.
00:38:23.599 --> 00:38:29.760
Like, I don't care how much you pay somebody, you can't pay somebody enough money to have that much caring about them, and that's where we're different, right?
00:38:29.920 --> 00:38:32.800
So um the staff that we have in there is absolutely amazing.
00:38:32.880 --> 00:38:39.280
And like I said, when you pair it with great companies and great product that actually works, uh, really cool things happen.
00:38:39.599 --> 00:38:40.239
Yeah.
00:38:40.559 --> 00:38:46.000
What when was the first time you you heard about direct current where you decided you wanted to bring it in?
00:38:46.159 --> 00:38:49.760
Did you hear from someone specifically, or is it just kind of the world of the MLB?
00:38:50.159 --> 00:38:53.519
Yeah, uh Coach Zinger actually brought it to my attention first, right?
00:38:53.599 --> 00:38:56.000
And and I'll tell you, like, we we've had this conversation.
00:38:56.159 --> 00:39:03.280
I don't know if I can say other companies' names on here, but I was like, what's between this and Mark Pro, right?
00:39:03.360 --> 00:39:06.719
Because we're in the baseball world, we see Mark Pro everywhere and the perfect game.
00:39:06.800 --> 00:39:12.320
So and so he's like, Well, this is what I know, and I'm like, okay, and then and then obviously we called you and talked to you about it too.
00:39:12.400 --> 00:39:15.199
I'm like, explain it to me because I need to be able to explain it to people better, right?
00:39:15.280 --> 00:39:19.840
As well, uh, because there's a price difference on there, but I can feel the difference for sure.
00:39:20.159 --> 00:39:22.960
When the first time that I stood on the pads, right?
00:39:23.039 --> 00:39:27.360
Like to this day, standing on the pads are still my fate by far my favorite thing to do.
00:39:27.440 --> 00:39:30.239
I don't know why I'm punishment or whatnot, but I love it.
00:39:30.480 --> 00:39:34.320
Um but that I was like, this is different, right?
00:39:34.400 --> 00:39:38.480
And then the when we went in the search, the search and destroy mode with my back, right?
00:39:38.559 --> 00:39:41.360
And he's and we're doing and we're doing that and finding the hot spots.
00:39:41.440 --> 00:39:44.320
I'm like, man, you can't do this to anything else.
00:39:44.480 --> 00:39:47.440
And I'm like, and he's like, no, and Coach Singer's like, no, you can't.
00:39:47.519 --> 00:39:49.280
Like that, that's what makes this different, right?
00:39:49.360 --> 00:39:56.239
And so, and that seems to still be the the differentiator for us, is like uh pervocation point.
00:39:56.320 --> 00:40:05.440
We had uh Jackson Bonneville in in there, so nobody knows his name, but everybody, but a lot of people know him on Instagram because he's the guy that does the Aaron Roger impersonation and plays cosmic baseball.
00:40:05.760 --> 00:40:07.119
Hilarious guy, right?
00:40:07.280 --> 00:40:13.440
And we started the whole thing as a skit about what we were gonna do, like he was gonna come in and try all these new technologies in there.
00:40:13.599 --> 00:40:16.800
Well, that turned in, so we started on the standing the pads, right?
00:40:16.880 --> 00:40:22.480
And and then obviously it then got real serious real quick because he has the arm injury, has some arm pain.
00:40:22.639 --> 00:40:30.960
And Zinger started searching them with the with the pad, and he hit the once body's like, Oh my gosh, that hurts because that's exactly where my arm hurts when it does.
00:40:31.119 --> 00:40:32.880
And Zinger started going to the whole thing, right?
00:40:32.960 --> 00:40:40.159
So then it flipped into like a two and a half hour recovery bodywork session of just on the fly one night when we were in there, right?
00:40:40.320 --> 00:40:48.480
And so that's what excites me is like you start bringing guys in there, and like even when we started with our boards and in the facility, right?
00:40:48.559 --> 00:40:57.440
People, me and JD Burgess used to say, like, I wish we had a hidden camera in the lobby because guys would come in, hey, so-and-so asked me to come check out your product.
00:40:57.519 --> 00:41:00.880
Uh they didn't want to be there because they get everything in the world thrown at them.
00:41:01.039 --> 00:41:01.599
I'm like, cool.
00:41:01.679 --> 00:41:03.119
I said, I'm not here to sales pitchy.
00:41:03.199 --> 00:41:07.039
I want to just give me 10 minutes, I'll walk you through what we're doing, and then I'll let you out of here.
00:41:07.280 --> 00:41:08.880
And it never worked that way.
00:41:09.039 --> 00:41:12.719
They always, as soon as they got on the product, they're like, oh my gosh, and they have more questions.
00:41:12.800 --> 00:41:16.320
And then they leave and they always call five minutes later because they have more questions, right?
00:41:16.400 --> 00:41:16.960
Which I love.
00:41:17.280 --> 00:41:21.039
It's the same thing with your guys' product, and and something other products you can bring in there, right?
00:41:21.119 --> 00:41:23.920
It's like, hey, I'm not gonna push anything on you.
00:41:24.000 --> 00:41:26.320
You guys, it's not it's not for everybody, right?
00:41:26.480 --> 00:41:28.159
So, like some people just don't like it.
00:41:28.239 --> 00:41:32.000
Okay, fine, but let me show you how we use it and how we can do it.
00:41:32.079 --> 00:41:37.199
And and most people are like, holy cow, and I never saw that, right?
00:41:37.280 --> 00:41:47.039
Because it's like anything else, you don't have to go to a hundred, you can go to five and defer sensation, and you're gonna be able to do things that get you, and that's probably better for you in most things, right?
00:41:47.119 --> 00:41:55.679
So that's where like we're and I'm constantly learning, still going through the pro through your guys at university you have online there and teaching myself about how that stuff, but it's okay.
00:41:55.760 --> 00:41:56.719
Well, this is the problem.
00:41:56.800 --> 00:42:03.519
So then I'll confer with our medical guys and and people that are very familiar with it, they're like, Yep, this is what we do, and then we go check it with what you guys have online.
00:42:03.840 --> 00:42:11.840
Um, or I'll or I'll text you guys, which is great about I'll tell you that's one of my favorite part about your guys' company is the fact that I can text you guys almost almost any hour of the night.
00:42:11.920 --> 00:42:19.199
I haven't I haven't tested too late at night, but and I get an answer back before it's a competition that Mason and I have sometimes.
00:42:19.280 --> 00:42:20.400
Who's gonna answer first?
00:42:20.639 --> 00:42:24.239
Yeah, and so that's that's important, and customer service is huge, right?
00:42:24.320 --> 00:42:30.480
And for us, trying to deliver that customer service, having companies in the back end that have that 100% is big for us.
00:42:30.559 --> 00:42:40.880
So, yeah, I mean, off track again, which I'm doing a lot, but like Zinger brought to me first, and then we started loving it, and I then I started seeing, oh hey, more guys are using it, right?
00:42:41.039 --> 00:42:47.519
Because then the guys down at Apex and Phoenix who do a great job with the with the with their athletes down there as well.
00:42:47.599 --> 00:42:49.360
Uh, they were using it, they're using the foot bath, right?
00:42:49.440 --> 00:42:53.840
And those guys west and those guys down there, and I was like, okay, cool, they're on it too.
00:42:53.920 --> 00:42:56.079
And then we start seeing it around different places.
00:42:56.159 --> 00:43:00.719
Once you've seen it, then you're like, oh yeah, and I recognize it now because other other times we we don't, right?
00:43:00.800 --> 00:43:05.440
And then you see the other products that claim to be like it, and you're like, oh yeah, cool, I'll try it.
00:43:05.519 --> 00:43:06.800
Nope, not even anywhere close.
00:43:06.960 --> 00:43:10.880
And so it's just it's that stuff, and it's I love it, it's it's fun.
00:43:10.960 --> 00:43:14.960
I love I love the whole process of trying to figure out what works and what doesn't.
00:43:15.440 --> 00:43:27.679
You know, and selfishly, I appreciate you bringing up the uh the education side because to to us, over the course of the last eight years, that was the hardest point is differentiating why we're different, you know, why are we different than Mark Pro?
00:43:27.920 --> 00:43:29.679
Why are we different than a tens unit?
00:43:29.840 --> 00:43:32.480
Um, you know, is it a glorified 10 unit?
00:43:32.559 --> 00:43:35.679
You know, and and that's been the one of the biggest setbacks.
00:43:35.920 --> 00:43:51.280
Um, so so to get to that point, and then you you mentioned, you know, that's you know, that's what you like about it, you know, makes us feel good because to to us, that's one of the most important things is making sure they know how to use it correctly and and why it's different than some of these other um technologies.
00:43:52.000 --> 00:43:53.519
I do give that disclaimer to everybody.
00:43:53.599 --> 00:43:59.840
I'm like, hey, do not use this the way that use a 10 unit in high school to try to be cool, see how like the the beer in the hand, all that stuff.
00:44:00.159 --> 00:44:00.719
Yeah, right.
00:44:02.000 --> 00:44:03.199
So yeah, it's kind of funny.
00:44:04.800 --> 00:44:07.039
Yes, go buy that on Amazon if you're gonna do that on Amazon.
00:44:07.119 --> 00:44:07.920
Don't go do that one.
00:44:08.000 --> 00:44:08.880
Don't use this one for that.
00:44:08.960 --> 00:44:12.639
So yeah, it's uh this is only gonna help you move smoother.
00:44:12.719 --> 00:44:16.079
It's not gonna help lock you up because you're only gonna be moving smoother through it.
00:44:16.239 --> 00:44:17.920
Yeah, I was just gonna say that, Mason.
00:44:18.000 --> 00:44:22.800
You can turn this up to a hundred and actually eventually be able to get to that point where you're not spilling anything.
00:44:22.960 --> 00:44:24.000
Yeah, absolutely.
00:44:25.920 --> 00:44:31.920
So so John, uh, you know, how could uh you people are that are out there listening, you know, how can they how can they hear about you?
00:44:32.079 --> 00:44:37.119
What's your Instagram, your, you know, your your um your website, how could they reach you?
00:44:37.440 --> 00:44:41.119
Yeah, so our Instagram is uh prime.reaction.
00:44:41.199 --> 00:44:42.159
I believe that prime.reac.
00:44:42.239 --> 00:44:43.519
I guess you guys got it for me already.
00:44:43.599 --> 00:44:45.519
So yeah, uh, that's our Instagram.
00:44:45.599 --> 00:44:46.480
We do a lot of there.
00:44:46.639 --> 00:44:48.800
We have a really awesome video every crew on there too.
00:44:48.880 --> 00:44:51.440
It kind of gives you a vibe of what's going on in the facility.
00:44:51.519 --> 00:44:54.639
Um, and then we're we're actually redoing our entire website right now.
00:44:54.719 --> 00:44:59.039
It should be done this week, but that's uh PrimeHPC.com.
00:44:59.119 --> 00:45:02.320
And that's kind of everything an overview of our facility and what we're doing in there.
00:45:02.400 --> 00:45:08.559
And then honestly, like you know, either one of those I monitor all the time, but you can you can do a facility tour in there too.
00:45:08.639 --> 00:45:13.360
And I I encourage people if they're interested in it, like just sign up for a facility tour.
00:45:13.440 --> 00:45:18.559
Uh, my number is everywhere on the website and the and the Instagram.
00:45:18.639 --> 00:45:21.840
That's my personal cell phone number, which is crazy, but I it is.
00:45:22.000 --> 00:45:24.000
Um, text is the easiest way to get a hold of me.
00:45:24.079 --> 00:45:26.639
But like I love that people ask what asking for testimonies.
00:45:26.800 --> 00:45:29.360
And I've had people text me about your guys' product, right?
00:45:29.440 --> 00:45:30.559
Like, hey, what do you think about this?
00:45:30.639 --> 00:45:32.000
Like, what give me the honest opinion?
00:45:32.079 --> 00:45:37.679
I'm like, come in, come in, let's try it out, let's look at it, I'll show you how we use it and give you my experiences on that stuff too.
00:45:37.920 --> 00:45:42.960
Because for me, I think it's huge as a you know, we're a platform for you guys, right?
00:45:43.039 --> 00:45:56.960
Like we have hundreds of athletes that come through there, and it's not something that you know we're we're not paid by you guys to say anything, which is what another point that I think is really, really important for us is that like nothing that we have in the facility we're paid to use, right?
00:45:57.039 --> 00:45:57.920
And that's the biggest thing.
00:45:58.000 --> 00:45:58.880
And I'd never do that.
00:45:58.960 --> 00:46:08.719
It's the same way that with our product, like we don't pay athletes to use our product either, because I don't want to ever have anybody say they can be bought or it can be bought or any of that stuff, right?
00:46:08.800 --> 00:46:11.679
Like if we believe in it, we're gonna push it 100%, right?
00:46:11.760 --> 00:46:13.119
And that's where it that's where it's at.
00:46:13.280 --> 00:46:21.519
And I think that's a differentiator with how we do things and how I think the top tier people do it versus some of the other guys out there, maybe.
00:46:21.599 --> 00:46:24.159
And you know, I just think that that's important.
00:46:24.239 --> 00:46:27.599
Uh if it works, it works, and let's go, let's go get it, right?
00:46:27.679 --> 00:46:30.960
And that so yeah, I encourage people to stop by and the doors.
00:46:31.039 --> 00:46:33.679
I'm usually there every day anyway, so we're the doors usually open.
00:46:33.760 --> 00:46:37.199
Um, we actually have an open house coming up next on the 16th, too.
00:46:37.280 --> 00:46:38.400
So shameless plug on that.
00:46:38.480 --> 00:46:40.000
But we have a kind of open house there.
00:46:40.079 --> 00:46:44.639
We're gonna be demoing all of our stuff that we have there as well, and then kind of pitching a cool idea.
00:46:44.719 --> 00:46:46.480
We're gonna have a garage sale, right?
00:46:46.559 --> 00:46:49.599
So everybody can bring their stuff and sell all the used equipment they have in there.
00:46:50.000 --> 00:46:50.480
So cool.
00:46:50.800 --> 00:46:53.119
Just get a bunch of people in there and and and go from there.
00:46:53.199 --> 00:46:59.360
So you're in the Arizona area, that's not a garage sale with the type of players that they have going through Prime.
00:46:59.519 --> 00:47:02.159
So that is a memorabilia sale for some of them.
00:47:02.320 --> 00:47:05.039
Um, so that that's real, that's really cool.
00:47:05.119 --> 00:47:11.840
I think it goes to alludes to the point with the open house of you guys have always said you only know what you know and you don't know what you don't know.
00:47:11.920 --> 00:47:16.960
Um, and you guys are giving that platform to allow people um to learn more.
00:47:17.760 --> 00:47:18.800
Absolutely.
00:47:19.519 --> 00:47:22.079
So, one last question on my end, uh John.
00:47:22.480 --> 00:47:30.159
All the young athletes that are listening to this, uh, what advice would you have for them, you know, as they're kind of going up into their career?
00:47:31.440 --> 00:47:34.719
Um I just dive into training, honestly.
00:47:34.800 --> 00:47:41.840
Like, I mean, that's where I that's where I see our best athletes put as much time into their training as they do into everything else, right?
00:47:42.000 --> 00:47:43.199
That's where I think the difference is.
00:47:43.360 --> 00:47:45.440
I think you talk to some of the guys that are pros as well.
00:47:45.599 --> 00:47:50.000
Like, hey, listen, every pro guy we have in there just about plays video games.
00:47:50.239 --> 00:47:51.199
They do 100%.
00:47:51.440 --> 00:47:55.280
That's why I'm not gonna tell you, I may not like them, but my son plays them too, right?
00:47:55.360 --> 00:48:00.719
Like, but they're the time and place for them, and they're playing for they're doing that after they're done their training, right?
00:48:00.880 --> 00:48:09.760
The training takes priority over everything else, and that's something that I love that we do, especially in the offseason, because the guys see the the big week guys in their working, right?
00:48:09.840 --> 00:48:16.960
And there's nothing that takes place of that, like there's nothing that takes place of their training, they don't push it off, they get their training in, and then everything else comes after that.
00:48:17.119 --> 00:48:21.760
So I think that's where the big the big push has got to be where we are.
00:48:21.840 --> 00:48:23.599
Is like I think it's getting that way now, too.
00:48:23.679 --> 00:48:33.920
It's it's like, hey, we don't need to play, yes, you need to play baseball games, yes, you need to play games and do that stuff to you as much, but they gotta put as much time into recovery and to training as they do everything else.
00:48:34.079 --> 00:48:37.840
And these athletes nowadays were playing more than they ever have.
00:48:38.000 --> 00:48:43.199
Like, you know, again, taking Chase, for example, like he's home like six days of July.
00:48:43.360 --> 00:48:50.400
Other than that, he's on the road playing with his national team and different uh national events for going into August 1st recruiting for him as well.
00:48:50.559 --> 00:48:55.440
Um, if you don't know how to keep your body healthy and moving, it's never gonna work, right?
00:48:55.519 --> 00:48:57.599
And so uh big league guys will tell you the same thing.
00:48:57.679 --> 00:48:58.880
That's a long schedule.
00:48:58.960 --> 00:49:13.920
So if we can if we can build the habits of I use the brushing the teeth analogy a lot of what we do is that no one argues you're brushing your teeth when they're adult because they've done it for so long, and it's just part of their part of what they do every day, right?
00:49:14.000 --> 00:49:16.000
And it's like shower, it's like showering.
00:49:16.079 --> 00:49:19.920
Um, but as a kid, we gotta we gotta push them to to to to do it every day.
00:49:20.079 --> 00:49:26.239
Well, if we do the same thing with the kids now with recovery, how important it is, stretching, hydration, all that stuff now.
00:49:26.400 --> 00:49:31.920
When they become high schoolers and college athletes, then it's just second nature and it just goes through there, right?
00:49:32.000 --> 00:49:32.800
Just like practice.
00:49:32.880 --> 00:49:36.559
Like it's just something we gotta do because that's what that's what we do as athletes.
00:49:36.639 --> 00:49:42.239
And so um, I think we are getting the industry is getting much better about putting it out there that way.
00:49:42.320 --> 00:49:48.239
But I think we have to help the parents, you know, teach the teacher uh on that part, the parents, right?
00:49:48.320 --> 00:49:52.079
And let them know, hey, we need to do these things, it's more important than anything else you're gonna do.
00:49:52.239 --> 00:49:53.599
So beautiful.
00:49:54.000 --> 00:49:59.599
And I think that alludes to the point that you said too about you don't want these guys for three months out of the year, and then you don't see them.
00:49:59.679 --> 00:50:06.880
You want them from the beginning of this journey to see them through to the end, and then you're bringing them back in as an example for all the new generation.
00:50:07.119 --> 00:50:08.639
Yep, absolutely.
00:50:09.119 --> 00:50:10.800
John, appreciate your time.
00:50:10.960 --> 00:50:14.000
Uh, it's always a pleasure seeing you and talking to you.
00:50:14.159 --> 00:50:22.559
But uh, I can't wait for the next time I'm in there because you know, a lot can happen in the next 12 months in the in a facility like that, and it's exciting.
00:50:22.719 --> 00:50:26.400
Um, one more time, I want to give another shout out because you said it was May 16th.
00:50:26.480 --> 00:50:27.840
You're having an open house over there.
00:50:28.000 --> 00:50:30.320
Yeah, May 16th from 10 from 10 to 2.
00:50:30.400 --> 00:50:31.920
Um, come by, drop by.
00:50:32.239 --> 00:50:35.840
It's uh it'll be on the Instagram, it'll be on the website as well, it'll be all over.
00:50:35.920 --> 00:50:36.239
It'll be fun.
00:50:36.320 --> 00:50:39.679
We're at we're we're having some live ABs for our high school guys going on at the same time.
00:50:39.840 --> 00:50:43.679
We train in the garage sale around, all that stuff, so it's gonna be fun.
00:50:44.960 --> 00:50:47.440
I wish we I wish we were closer because Mason, I'd want to go.
00:50:47.840 --> 00:50:49.920
I already booked I already booked my flight.
00:50:50.079 --> 00:50:54.639
So while we were talking is already cut in charge, that's nervotics.
00:50:54.800 --> 00:50:57.599
Uh John, do you have time to to sit off stage for a second?
00:50:57.679 --> 00:50:58.480
We're gonna close out.
00:50:58.559 --> 00:50:59.280
I'd love to see you.
00:51:00.079 --> 00:51:01.039
Thanks again for your time.
00:51:01.199 --> 00:51:03.119

Yeah, yeah, wouldn't have missed it.
00:51:18.480 --> 00:51:28.400
Like I said at the beginning, um, they're just they're a great facility out there, they're doing a lot of good things, and bottom line, they care about their athletes, making them better, making sure they feel good all the way around.
00:51:28.480 --> 00:51:33.119
Um, so always open to having a conversation with John and Prime and anybody out there.
00:51:33.360 --> 00:51:35.360
Yeah, and all you have to do is look at their Instagram.
00:51:35.519 --> 00:51:40.000
You can see some of the very unique, very successful things that they're using.
00:51:40.159 --> 00:51:43.679
It's not just our technology, it's their style, it's their culture.
00:51:43.760 --> 00:51:46.559
