| 0:00.0 | You are listening to the J. Faruja show, the podcast that helps high achieving men get lean and jacked, build an unbreakable mindset, and become the man you're meant to be. |
| 0:19.6 | What's up, guys, welcome back to the show. |
| 0:21.5 | I appreciate each and every one of you for tuning in, each and every week, hitting |
