What's going on, everyone? Happy Monday. Before we jump in today's episode, I just want to kickstart this with an incredible opportunity we have going on.

Myself and Kyle are running a test group with four people. So the first four people to take advantage of this offer will get the special rate.

But what we're looking for is four people who want to shrink their waist and grow their glutes and just improve their composition all over. So if you find you're more of kind of a rectangle shape, you don't necessarily have that curve or that look you kind of want right now and you feel more towards that rectangle and you want to switch to an hourglass, this is for you. So to take advantage of this, DMS glute gains to join the sample group so we can coach you on how to shrink your waist, grow your glutes in over 90 days. So we're looking for people once again who want to lose unwanted fat, replace it with new muscle and maximize that composition. So if that is you, go ahead and DM us glute gains on Instagram. At Kloss is Fit. C-O-L-O-S-U-S-F-I-T, now into the episode. What's going on, everyone? Welcome to another episode of the fit, healthy, and most of all happy podcast.

We hit up Starbucks today.

We're fired up and ready to produce an incredible episode. So there's going to be a lot of gems in here. We're really charged up. We're fired up. And we can't wait to get into it. And as always, we're going to start with our quotes. I got a simple one. It's more like, I guess, a mandate, but it is a quote just the same, so I thought it was pretty good.

But the quote is, you're alive.

Act like it. Go outside, call a friend, hit the gym, run until you can't, lose your phone, find yourself. So a little bit of one of those feel-goody quotes, but I just, I thought it was awesome, right? Like, I think it's so easy to be caught up. Me and Kyle have been talking a lot about how people always say, oh, I'm so busy.

I got so much going on. I have no time to do anything. You know, the days are just flying by or I have no energy. I'm so tired, you know. And like, what's nice is I never hear this from my clients. It's more so like people in my life or people I just talk to day to day, like at the grocery store or the gym or what be it.

And it's just amazing the difference, you know, even between my clients with people who are just crushing it, who are getting after it, who are finding solutions, who are getting things done. And I just think it's so easy to neglect, you know, just having time for yourself and going out and doing fun things and just,

you know, there's a lot of, in my opinion, misplaced priorities. You know, a lot of people

will just be so glued to their phones at the wrong times or so fixated kind of on like,

you know, capturing a moment to have a good photo to post or to share to other people and they

won't go out and actually live

that life they want to live. And, you know, I like this quote in particular because it's so simple, you know, like calling a friend, just being outside of nature, you know, going to the gym, just going out on a crazy run or walk or hike, whatever it is. You know, it just, it feels good to do these things to get out out, to explore, to be active. And I just think in our scheduling, a lot of people, these are the first things they'll put to the chopping block, right? Like, it'll be more focused around, you know, as we always mentioned, like working, Netflix, taking care of others, you know, all these different things, shopping. And it's just taking this time for yourself to go out,

to be, to have fun, to play. It's just such an awesome feeling. Yeah, I love that. And like, even just when I look at this quote, like it's cool because everyone can take different things like that kind of relate to them. Even like I love everything that Josh shared there. I've never seen, you know, one of these things. But it's like, it's simple, right? Like, you know, go outside, checkmark okay cool i've done that i've gone for my morning walk you know call or even text

a friend i know one guy uh his name's badros he actually sends three gratitude messages to friends every single morning he said he's been doing it for 10 years i was just listening to his podcast i'm like man that is so powerful like he's like when people respond afterwards like responding back that gives him momentum and that makes him feel great. And I think it's so powerful even just to send those messages or call someone. You know, I know it's very unnormal to to call people nowadays. But like, you know, that hitting the gym, running until you can't like from me like when I read that, that tells me like push yourself like challenge yourself. whether it's the hike, whether it's whatever cardio they're going to do, like push yourself to the point where like, I just, I truly believe we all need to challenge ourselves a lot, which I'll get into after. But, and then also just losing your phone is funny because to this day, like yesterday, it was actually, I was in the steam sauna and just spending time thinking. I spent 10 minutes. I think I set a timer on my watch. I was thinking. I was visualizing.

And then a guy comes in. and just spending time thinking i spent 10 minutes i think i i said i set a timer on my watch i was

thinking i was visualizing and then a guy comes in and you know brings his iPhone in and i'm just like
