0:00.0	This episode is brought to you by Athletic Greens. Athletic Greens has become one of my favorite
0:06.9	parts of my morning routine. I took some this morning. I just wake up, throw a scoop of athletic
0:13.2	greens in a water bottle that I keep in my fridge, so it's nice and cold. I shake that up,
0:18.0	sip it while I'm making my coffee, and getting ready for my day.
0:21.4	It's super refreshing.
0:22.7	I love the flavor.
0:23.9	There's some apple and pear extracts in there along with some stevia to make it delicious and not too sweet, and I really, really enjoy it.

1:19.2	Athletic Greens is going to give you guys a free one-year supply of immune-supporting vitamin D
1:23.7	and five free travel packs with your first purchase.
1:27.2	Again, that's athletic greens.com
1:29.1	slash nugget to pick up the ultimate daily nutritional insurance. This episode is also brought
1:36.5	to you by Grasshopper climbing. I've had a lot of great conversations lately on the podcast,
1:41.4	and one of the things that keeps coming up again and again when it comes
1:45.9	to getting better at climbing is consistency. There's no magic hangboard program or
