| 0:00.0 | Hello everybody. Chris Gethen here and welcome to the Knowledge and Mileage podcast. Today I have a phenomenal guest. |
| 0:07.5 | His name is Paul Hardy. He's 43 years old and he is one of my one-on-one online clients. |
| 0:16.8 | It's been an absolute pleasurable experience training Paul because he has done absolutely everything that I've asked of him and much more. |
| 0:28.6 | You know, he's a father of a couple of kids, of a little baby and a three-year-old. |
| 0:35.6 | When we started working together, |
| 0:38.3 | this is when COVID had kind of locked down everything. |
| 0:42.3 | He was just training at home with basically a pair of dumbbells and body weights |
| 0:47.3 | and some resistance bands. |
| 0:49.3 | But the transformation that he has undergone at 43 years young has been absolutely phenomenal. |

| 1:36.9 | you're too busy, you're a father or a mother, whatever it may be, just listening to Paul will help you take your impossibilities |
| 1:47.2 | into possibilities and remove those weaknesses and turn them into your weapons. So without further |
| 1:55.3 | ado, let's start getting into this podcast. Now, have you ever wondered why some people get sick and other people only have mild cases? |
| 2:06.6 | So researchers say this is all found in your gut health. |
| 2:11.6 | A study published just this year suggests that people with leaky gut and other gut symptoms may be of higher risk of |
| 2:21.7 | severe cases. So in fact, more than 70% of your immunity is created in your gut. Now, why does |
| 2:28.7 | this matter? Well, even if you do absolutely everything right, you'll still be exposed to viruses and bacteria, |
