Massive difference. I mean, the typical 67-year-old. Doesn't look like you, can't move like you, doesn't work out like you, doesn't have your energy. So if you're going to do a comparison, that would be a little bit more fair. And your light years, I'm looking at you right now on camera, For somebody who's, would you say 66, 67? I hope I look that way. Holy shit, man.

I've told the story many times of going to work with my dad as a, I think I was 16, a 16-year-old, you know, full of energy. And my grandfather, my Sicilian grandfather came to visit and And him and I were taking turns mixing cement. And just buried you. And my Sicilian grant in the hot sun. It was like 90-something degrees. And he just destroyed me. And I was a 16-year-old kid.

Worked out, you know, all the time. And he just murdered me. And, you know, he'd been doing that kind of work since he was, you know, eight years old. So even though he was much older than me. So you probably do have a pretty high tolerance. But you just got to be honest with yourself and don't fool yourself. Because we tend to fool ourselves like, you know.

What you can tolerate isn't necessarily what's ideal. And then one thing I'll say to you about the squats and deadlifts, you mentioned like in the decades you started strength training, those exercises started falling out of favor a little bit for a while. Now you go to the gym, everybody's doing them.

the best way for you to approach those lifts that you're not experienced with is don't treat them like a lift, treat them like a skill. So when you go do your squats, don't think to yourself, like you do when you work out, you know, with a bench press or a curl, just go and say, I'm going to just practice the skill and get good at it.

And so you're not even trying to like really work your legs really hard yet or anything like that. You're just trying to get really good at the skill. That'll get you, that'll move you in the right, and you'll get better results that way. But if you approach this lift that you haven't done
