| 0:00.0 | Like for me saying that I need to focus on sleep for some people |
| 0:03.8 | Maybe that's just their thing they're always in bed by 10 and they don't need to be up before eight |
| 0:08.3 | So they never even need to worry about the sleep so they should be focusing on something else |
| 0:12.0 | Whereas that's it for me, but I think the biggest thing is definitely like keeping a balance across the whole thing |
| 0:17.6 | Because there like men says there is no balance like I can't |
| 0:22.4 | Like I won't skip out my training if something is on my training plan. I'm doing that like no matter what like that's |
| 0:29.2 | Just that's just discipline for me so that could be regardless of the sleep that I got or the mindset that I have or have |

| 1:29.4 | So it's sort of every time we do this we want to make sure we recap what that as in case it's the first time somebody's sort of introduced to it |
| 1:35.6 | So maybe then if you want to give us a sense of |
| 1:38.1 | Or an overview of what the five factors of health are and then we'll sort of dive into the conversation from there |
| 1:42.5 | Yeah, I was like to start with what the two obvious ones are which is if you went to your doctor your doctor essentially say like |
| 1:48.3 | Something's not right. We need you to exercise and eat better and that's what the normal doctor would say |
| 1:54.2 | But to me that's like a starting point and there's more that encompasses your overall health |
