Chapter 1: What is the core message of 'It's Sexy to Try'?
Ystävän päivä. Ei aikatauluja, ei pöytävarauksia, ei stressiä. Tänään riittää koti. Ja se, että joku tärkeä on mun kanssa. Kukat ovelle, pientä makeaa jaetaa. Tai sit vaan ihan omassa rauhassa. Kotona koiran kanssa. Katon vaan leffoja, hemmottelen itseäni. Tilaan herkkuja kotiin. Lisää vain ystävä. Kaikin muun tilat Voltista. Helposti, rakkaudella, Volt.
Ystävät, jotka eivät käyttäisi niiden mahdollisuudet parantaa itseään tulevaisuudessa, tekevät itseään ja tulevaisuudessa todellisen hyökkäyksen, ennen kuin yrittäisivät yrittää paremmin.
I hate getting that cold plunge every day. You do it every day? I haven't recently because mine just burst. I woke up in the morning and came downstairs, which I normally jump in the morning. And I have a feeling one of my...
One of my friggin' cats did something, but I had an air inflatable one, and a thing was leaking, and it had fallen down enough that the water was starting to come over the edge, and it ended up being like half my day trying to make sure that whatever that is, 50 gallons of water didn't just blast out over my entire floor. So it's been probably three weeks since I've been in, but yeah, I usually try to do four or five days a week when I can, yeah.
sinä olet parempi ihminen kuin minä. En tiedä, minulla on yksi. Mennään siihen, ja sitten menen kohti, ja sitten kohti isoja, ja sanoin, että olen hyvä. Se on jotain siitä, että kun menen sinne, minä vain sanoin, että tarvitsen tämän, ja sitten sanoin itselleen, että kylmä kylmä, ja huone ja kylmä, ja sitten, jos pidän sinne yli minuutti, minuutti ja puoli, ja siinä on jotain siitä, että voin mennä nopeasti sinne.
Mutta sanon sinulle, että olen huolissani saunasta. Ja käytän selkeää ilmaa. Tietysti sulbeisiumi on tärkeä. Mutta teen yhdistelmää vanhoista saunasta ja ilmaa ilmaa. Ja minulla ei ole mitään ongelmia lämpimänä. Ja minulla on juttuja ihmisille, että minusta ei ole niin kylmää.
That's why I do it. I do it because I hate it. The health benefits are definitely there. Inflammation reduction. Being a non-technical fitness biology, I'm like a Monday morning quarterback, but for human optimization, I guess you'd call it. Wait, let me jump in just so you know this.
I have told my other trainers, hey guys, I'm in the office, I'm doing a podcast, and I go, just, if you have to walk out because it goes out to a parking, I'm fine, but whatever. I literally just had my co-worker walk through with his pants down. That's the kind of professional environment I'm in. I would last five minutes in corporate, just so you know. I'm like...
Okei, ja luuletko, että minä en kuitenkaan vain tappaa sinua siitä, kaveri? Sehän on se, mitä minä käsitän täällä. Ja hyvintä on se, että se on täydellisesti hyväksymätöntä, joten me olemme hyväksyneet. Pantit ovat hyödyllisiä. Hän kävi juuri läpi tämän koko asian, ja minä olin kuin...

Chapter 2: How does Gunnar Peterson define success in fitness and life?
Joku sanoi, että jos aina otan sen takaisin sinulle. En otan sen takaisin minulle, mutta yritän käsitellä, että ymmärrän. Ajattelen, että mennään takaisin, kun isäni, joka on työtänyt vuosina. Hän opitti minut siitä, että joissain ihmisillä oli yksiköitä, jotka olivat yksiköitä.
They are the guys who go into the meetings first. And back in the day, I don't want him to get in any trouble after the fact, but there's a certain look to those guys. There's a certain demeanor to them. Regardless of their competence in business, they were the guys you wanted to go in first to sort of set the tone. And then, you know, business guys come in and that, and
Minun isäni sanoi aiemmin, että minulla on todella paljon kokoomusta, ja minä sanoin, että todella? Minulla on ollut kokoomus 25 vuotta, ja minulla on ollut 10 treeniä. En koskaan sanota, että minun ympärilläni, vaan minun ympärilläni. He käyvät ja menovat, kuten periaatteessa. Suurin osa heistä, sanotaanko 8-10, jatkuvat heidän oman kauttaan, mutta muut, koska he haluavat tappaa itseään, eivät ole ongelmia.
But some of them I go like, the two I'm thinking of right now, they were the best. And again, just to give it a label, but not to create a hierarchy that's not there. They're like the best number two, right? Like I'm better front facing. I'm better to draw people in. I'm better to...
to set the tone for a room when the client or the potential client walks in. I'm the right guy to say, here's what we do, and I show them the stuff. But the other trainer is as good as I am in the trenches doing the training work. And when they set out to do their own gym, I go, ah,
Don't do that. I love you, dude. You and I, I just think it's my time. I don't mind. I never want to hold anybody back. The big difference between being a trainer and a gym owner, you can be a great trainer, fail miserably as a gym owner. You can be a great gym owner and fail miserably as a trainer. Two different skill sets. But when these guys set out, I just go...
Look dude, I love you. You're not that guy. Let me be that guy. Let me draw the business and then I'll spread it around and we'll all succeed. So to your point, you didn't want to be that guy. You're doing the other stuff. You're in your lane, he's in his lane and the two are marching along. I completely get it. So it's funny. I see it in my business too.
So I did a TEDx talk in February. It was called Stop Living a Life You Didn't Choose. And it was all about ego and how we, in my opinion, in my career thus far, I'll be 45 this year. You know, when I break down, what are the things that I've seen in myself? What are the things that I've seen around me, people I've coached, people I've worked with?
Varsinkin yksi toisista, jos ei se syy, miksi luulen, että useimmat karjojen onnistuminen on egoista tai jonkun erityisen egoista. Ja kun katsot sitä kertaa, jota aiemmin kertoisin, se on egoista. Kun katsot henkilöä, joka ei ymmärrä, että he ovat ilmaisuuden ja ilmaisuuden numero kaksi, mutta heidän täytyy olla numero yksi, se on heidän egoistaan puhuttu.

Chapter 3: What mindset shifts are necessary after a divorce?
Ja sitten lukee, että ehkä sinut, koska olet loppunut. Kuulin juuri tänä päivänä tutustua. Koska olet yli 40-vuotias, tarvitset enemmän proteiinaa, jotta voit olla anaboliittinen.
One, two, three, four percent for every meal. And all of a sudden your body goes more anabolic because you are older and you did make that effort to add to that. It's all those little... I'm going to use it. I'm going to put somewhere in the jam...
Se on kuitenkin yksi kuukausi, koska se on, ja nämä kaikki liittyvät siihen, että jos me kaikki saamme yksi kuukausi, jos kaikki sijoitetaan siihen, niin voit mennä koko päivän. Luulen tästä täysin. Kyllä, se on hauskaa, joten minä teen paljon optimisaatiota, mutta yleensä se on erittäin mielenkiintoista, ja minä rakastan testiä asioita, ja yleensä siksi, että en välttämättä välttämättä välttämättä välttämättä mennä yhdessä yöllä. Se ei tapahtu.
My buddies were making fun of me because I started looking into GLP-1s and peptides and different stuff like that. In addition to the fact that I ground and I also have a sauna with red light and I do the cold plunges and I do ruck walks. They're like, why do you do all this shit? They're like, just go to... And I'm like, one...
Se pitää huoneeni aktiivisempaa ja mielenkiintoisempaa. Se on kuitenkin harjoituksia. Sitten sinut katsotaan. Minä menen täältä 4.30 ja ajattelen, että jos lisään Nordic Curlin ennen Zurcher-suomalaisuutta, minä voin pre-hyödyttää hänet niin, että Zurcherin kanssa voin todella vahvistaa suomalaisuudet, koska he eivät voi saada apua. Minä ajattelen, miksi olen vanhuinen ihminen, joka käy täällä taivaalla.
miettimään, että olen pre-hyödyttänyt hänet, ennen kuin menen... Mutta se ei ole ihanaa. Se on se, mitä teemme. Se on se, mitä kaverit tekevät. Miten saa 1 % paremmin? Miten saa vähän enemmän? Koska mitä teit...
20, 21, 22, 23, se ei todennäköisesti saa samaa jälkeä kuin 34, 35, 36. Ja sinä yrität saada se yksi viimeinen kontrakti. Se on iso asia. Jos yksi teidän suunnitelmanne on finanssiaalinen, niin se kontrakti on iso indikaatio siitä, onko teidän metodeidenne, teidän valitseenne, jatkuvasti jatkuvasti.
Well, look what everyone else does. Everyone else gets fat and lazy and slow. And oh, you know, I'm too old. And they walk around and they're like this. I had this moment. So I coach my son's little league team. And I coach him since he's seven. He's 12 this year. And two years ago, not that I necessarily needed this awakening, but it was.
He was pitching and I went out to just... It doesn't matter. I went to say something to him. He was on the mound. And I get out there for a sec and then one of the kids needed... One of the infielders came in and he needed to tie his spike. So now there's like a break, right? So I'm standing on the mound and I kind of just do this little spin, right? Where I'm just kind of scanning the crowd. The other team, our team stands. You know, I just kind of... You know, just while I'm waiting for these kids to get their shit together. And...

Chapter 4: How can physical fitness improve mental resilience?
It's not about, I think where we get lost in here is, in this discussion, is like, you know, sexism. And it's not what it's about. It's like, here's what I know how God created us. God created men to be dispensable. He created women to be indispensable. They're the only ones that keep the species going.
Meidän tehtävä on mennä ja ottaa rauhoja, rauhoja ja rauhoja, jotta voidaan pysähtyä naisia. Ei koska he ovat vaikeita, eikä koska he ovat vaikeita, vaan koska he ovat ne, jotka tekevät uusia hienoja ihmisiä. Ja me niitä tarvitaan. Ja tämä on osa todellisuutta.
Katsotaanpa, me molemmat teemme niitä. He tarvitsevat, että me teemme niitä. Mutta mielestäni he tekevät niin paljon paremmin heidän huolehtimistaan niiden alkuperäisissä vuosissa. Jos mietitään syödäntöä ja koko asiaa, niin isompi isompi isompi isompi isompi isompi isompi isompi
I'm like, babe, take a girl's weekend. I got them. We're doing dad stuff from four on. When our daughter...
Meidän vanhemmat saivat leukemiaa vuoden ja yli ennen ja menivät huoneeseen. Isäni ei jättänyt huoneeseen. Siinä se pysyi. Hän sanoi, että en jättänyt huoneeseen. Sanoin, että tiedän sen. Pidin siellä muutaman päivän. Sanoin, että tämä on todella huono käyttö meidän aikamme. Luulen, että minun täytyy mennä työskennellä. Minun täytyy varmistaa, että isäni...
as as normal a life as we could expect him to have while his sister is going through this and his mother is going to be here we have to think not just of her but of him and she agreed and he and i ended up doing some real bondings the wrong term but we did some stuff that you certainly wouldn't have known that his family was going through anything this um
Se oli todella vaikeaa. Olimme kävelemässä sokeria. Kuten jokainen tietää, kävelemässä polttoaineet ovat epäselväisiä. He eivät huolta. Hän ja minä kävelimme Kentucky, Alabama, Cincinnati, St. Louis. Me kävelimme yhdessä ja teemme parhaamman. Jos hän olisi lapsi, minä olisin haastanut siitä. Se olisi vaikeaa minulle.
My wife is great in that way. But at the same time, I'll do the dishes. I'm not saying you're relegated to housework while I go out and kill saber-toothed tigers. I'm fine sharing on both ends of that. If she has an income-producing job, great. If not, I still maintain that her job as...
Household person and child caregiver is as important, if not more important than my job. But I'm also fine to share that workload at home. But she is better at certain things when they're little, to your earlier point.

Chapter 5: What role does ego play in personal and professional success?
because they don't do deadlifts, then people hurt their back because they do do deadlifts. We don't need to belabor that. That's what I would say to you. I'm not saying you have to go 1RM all the time on your deadlift, but push yourself the same way you do on your pull-ups, the same way you do on your presses, the same way you do whatever movement you're doing. Make sure you challenge yourself equally
on posterior chain just behind a friend in college. I said, you got to train the back. He goes, I don't see that shit. I'm just lifting for this. And I get it. And it was a funny comment in the 80s from a teenager. But now it's just an irresponsible guy. You got to train the muscles you don't see in the mirror, essentially, is what it comes down to. And I know that it's not sexy, but it's sexy for other people. If you look at those studies,
Ihmiset näyttävät enemmän nukkua, kuin he tekevät käsiä. Ja niitä puutteita on tuolla. Ja olet kuitenkin, että minä en harjoitella sitä.
Up to you, but I think long term that's not a smart path. Yeah, I'm with you there. And metabolically, the glutes are the biggest muscle group of the body. Just from a body comp standpoint, just from a lean mass to fat mass ratio, you're doing yourself a service by training the big muscle group. Why are we not doing it? I don't understand it.
No, funny. Yeah, it's funny that you see it and you get it in your mid-40s and your buddies are riding you about. I think that's hysterical. Yeah. You're on the right side of history on this one, trust. Yeah, it's interesting. Well, so, okay. So I would like, I kind of, I would love to chat a little bit about, if you don't mind, almost like...
rapid fire in a sense, some general fitness, health, recovery type activities or ideas and just get your feeling on them. And these are not in any particular order, but you brought up one that before that I have mentally just have not been able to pull my head all the way around. And that's EMF grounding. I have a grounding sheet on my bed.
Seuraavasti nousemuskohde, semmoinen asia, sanoisi, että se on ollut positiivinen vaikutus aikana. Minulla tuntuu uudestaan, minulla tuntuu paremmin, en tiedä. Olen käyttänyt sen niin kauan, että en tiedä, mitä voin kertoa. Mutta en voi laittaa kappaleeni...
You know, this idea of our electrical charge and its impact on how we feel. You know, there's no meter I can put on my grounding sheet to say it's working. You know what I mean? Like, you know, where does all this lie? Because this is one of the things that I get a lot of questions about from my friends. Like, oh, you're walking around in bare feet again? Like, what's wrong? I'm like, no, but, you know, what should we think about this? Grounding, EMF, and its impact on us.
The EMF, when our daughter... You know, she's still...

Chapter 6: How can small daily actions lead to significant life changes?
This has been such a short period. This is the part where I see the pessimists, where I just cannot even wrap my head around the pessimist viewpoint here, because to your point,
There's no harm. There's only upside. The harm, the most harm is if you go full hog the couple hundred dollars for all these devices. And a couple hundred dollars as much as it is for all these devices. And then the argument of, yeah, but look at the people in the blue zones and look at the people who live to 80, 90, 100 years old. You're like, yeah, yeah, yeah, but time out.
The electromagnetic fields that we're being exposed to now, those people didn't have that. They were born before there were things like cell phones for sure, but like credit cards. They didn't travel the way we travel. They haven't been exposed to microwaves the way we have. Even if it's not on, that microwave is, you know, I still use it. My wife, absolutely not. She's air fryer, but the air fryer is electric. How far are we going to go? Those people haven't been around us and exposed.
My kids screen time by age five is more than mine by age 50, period. They're exposed to different things. And with that, there are benefits and detractors, as we said. We just don't know, Gunnar. That's the part that drives me nuts. How can you have an opinion? People will be like, but there's no studies. And I'm like, we've only been exposed...
...to daily cell phone in our face radiation 24-7 for a decade. Because before that, the phones didn't have the same level of radiation coming off them. And even if they were near you... And even culturally, we didn't keep them on us all the time. Because they only did... They basically sent text messages and phone calls. That's all they did. So like...
This has been such a short period of time. There's no way for us to adequately understand the impact. What we do know downstream, and this is the part where I just do not see being a pessimist on this stuff, what we do know is our bodies are too acidic, and we have more mental noise, like if you look at actual brain scans, than ever before in history. So...
We don't know why necessarily, but we do know we have more mental noise and a reduced ability to focus and more general state cortisol than ever before. And our bodies have too much acidity versus what they should be. So we know those two things are true, but we can't directly tie them to some of this stuff. Why would you not want to take any step possible to put yourself back into harmony? I don't understand why. That's the part that breaks me on this stuff.
Agree. I heard something not long ago. It might have been Oprah's thing on The View, where she said the GOP wants to turn down the food noise. And I've heard that term a few times in the last few months. And I was talking to my dad about it, and I'm like, what are you talking about, food noise? And I thought...
My dad sleeps with his phone downstairs. It's in the charger. It's just a different thing. He didn't have food noise. My grandparents didn't have food noise because there wasn't...

Chapter 7: What are the benefits of embracing discomfort in training?
Except this was different. This was like every moment of my day I was walking through molasses. There was nothing. No libido, no energy, no drive. Nothing. I was just operating. I was like a shell.
So this goes on for a couple of weeks. I got to figure what's out, go to the doctors, get a test. My testosterone is in the seventh percentile. I have like 30 free testosterone or whatever. Right. I can't remember the milliliters or milligrams, whatever it is. You know, all I know is you're supposed to have 500 to 700. I had 30 and it was bad. And I did not want to go on synthetic testosterone or TRT. I didn't want to do that.
Se oli se, mikä pysyi minua tähän peptiittipaikkoon, kun doktorini löysi hormonin optimisaationin tutkijan. Tämä oli minun tilaisuuteni, mutta voin kertoa sinulle,
Luulen, että olet tekemässä oikean asian itse asiassa, kun tiedät itseäsi, koska se, mitä olen löytänyt, on se, että olen yleensä tutustunut, koska tunnen, että se on mahtavaa. Tämä lyhyt dosa, hyvin lyhyt dosa, mikrodosa tesamorilinin ja terzepatidin dosa, tunnen, että...
I'm at 770 now, but it's between 770 and 900, depending on whatever. And bounce back within three or four months. And now I feel like, I feel amazing. But the problem is, to your point, now I'm constantly looking for that next week. I've been looking at BBC 157. I've been looking at NAD plus injections. And I'm going like, in my brain, I'm like, just stop. But I know...
Now I'm in this tinkerer phase, and I'm tinkering, tinkering, tinkering. But to your point, when you start stacking up all this stuff...
I feel like, and maybe this is kind of the thing that I just want to share with the audience, is that if you haven't done the primary work that we were discussing at the beginning of the show, right? Like having a workout routine, hydrating properly, getting decent sleep, right? Like eating right. If you don't have those things in place, you will never know if any of this exotic shit actually works. Because it becomes fairy dust, right? Like if you're sprinkling it...
It's like I tell my son when I use spices or sea salt or whatever, I go, if the food's good, just eat very little bit. If the food's garbage, put a little more on and it's palatable and you'll be fine. I know myself and I know how it would be. And I look at some people and I go, you haven't prepared the food properly. You haven't done the base stuff. You think you're just going to throw peptides at this person
You're throwing good money after bad, that's one. And you're dashing your own hopes.

Chapter 8: How can one maintain motivation and accountability in fitness?
That's the best way. But it's what you should have done before. Yes. And you can't blame them for not having been that. Maybe it took whatever awakening, whether that was her dumping you, her cheating on you, you're getting fired, whatever it was, that's what you should have done. So you go, okay, but like fitness, and I bring it back to that, it's never too late, right? They've shown actually two studies in 80-year-olds, in octogenarians as well as centenarians, like
New muscle cell growth, but muscle cell hypertrophy, the growth in size, in 80-year-olds and people at 100. So it's never too late to start. I just saw a study this morning that said, if you're not in shape by the time you're 35, there's an X percent chance that you will never be in shape. And I was like, wow, that's super defeating.
Se on myös mentaalia. Mielestäni se on mentaalia. Agroroin. Se on psykologista. Fysiologisesti tiedämme, että voimme. Mielestäni se ei ole niin, että tämä on niin kuin olen, etten voi muuttaa. Se on vain minun. Se on se, mitä otan taustalle seuraavaksi, kun minulla on partneri. Ei. Silloin sinulla on partneri, joka on vähemmän kuin oma partneri. Pitää yrittää olla parempi. Pitää edistää elämystä. Kerron lapsille.
You gotta be better. You're gonna be better than I am. I remember my now 26-year-old, I said that to him once when he was about six in the bed. I said, Jack, you're gonna be so much better than I am. And he goes, I could never be better than you, daddy. I said, sweet boy, I'm figuring my way through life. I'm just a dude. I'm just a trainer. I'm just a guy trying to contribute to the fitness landscape and help people find their way the way I found my way from a fat kid to this. You are going to be better than I am.
Ja pidän siitä, että kaikki lapseni, vanhemmat ja nuoret, ovat kaikki päällä minulle, mikä on, mielestäni, niin kuin se pitäisi olla. Heidän pitäisi olla parempi kuin minä. Heidän pitäisi olla vahvempia, heidän pitäisi olla vähemmän käsiteltävää ajattelua, heidän pitäisi olla vähemmän käsiteltävää ajattelua. Heidän pitäisi olla vähemmän käsiteltävää, heidän pitäisi olla vähemmän käsiteltävää.
ja terveydenhuoltoa, kuitenkaan liittyvien kärsivien ja kardioiden tyyliin, kuten minä, tai eri koulutuksissa tai erilaisissa protokollissa tai erilaisissa... Kuten minä otan Alphagymini ja proteiiniin,
ja minä käytän Solbazium-red light-terapiaa, ja minä käytän kahviiniä ja kaikkea sitä, miten minä teen kaikki minun pienten asioitani, he löytävät heidän tavoitteensa ja minä toivon, että he löytävät heidän tavoitteensa, ja minä toivon, että he löytävät heidän tavoitteensa ja minä toivon, että he löytävät heidän tavoitteensa ja minä toivon, että he löytävät heidän tavoitteensa
Because they've grown up differently than I am and they're processing and assessing information at a different rate. And I think that's my job. So I'm not going to pull my shoulder out patting myself on the back, but I think they're good kids. And that's my job as a dad is to raise them to be those kids. So your buddies who...
että he eivät käyttäneet niiden mahdollisuudet parantaa itseään tulevaisuudessa. Jos he tekevät itseään ja tulevaisuuden itseään todellisen hyökkäyksen, niin he eivät yrittäneet yrittää paremmin. Pitäkää, tykkää. Se on vain sinut. Pitäkää. En ole varma, oletko tehty. Jos te tekevät hyökkäyksen, te teette hyökkäyksen.
