| 0:00.0 | Yo, what's up everybody? Welcome to the Renegade Strength Show. I am your host with the |
| 0:12.6 | most J for RUJ here to help you unleash your strong self and to become the inspiration |
| 0:16.9 | for all those who need you. Quick update here. I just got some blood work back. So for |
| 0:23.2 | those who don't know, I'm not even sure if I mentioned it on the show or not. I was back |
| 0:26.8 | home in L.A. last year, one year ago last August, a bunch of us went to downtown of the |
| 0:33.2 | Staples Center to see the luminaires. There were, I believe, 10 of us at dinner that night |
| 0:38.4 | went to a sushi place. It would have been to a million times before. I woke up the next |

| 1:28.2 | can't gain any strength, zero energy. And that continued for months and months and months. |
| 1:34.3 | Now already we had some other shit going on that made it a tough year. That made it even |
| 1:38.0 | tougher year. So since, you know, getting to Miami and then obviously since losing Bronx, |
| 1:45.6 | it's been a little rough. This made it exponentially rougher. So I'm losing weight. I'm losing |
| 1:50.6 | strength. I'm not sleeping. I'm having to use a lot of caffeine because I have no energy. |
