0:11.1	Welcome to The Model Health Show. This is Fitness and Nutrition Expert, Sean Stevenson.
0:14.3	I'm so grateful for you tuning in with me today. I want to share something really interesting
0:19.2	that just happened to me. I was at the track, the race track at my old high school,
0:26.8	and I took my youngest son along with me, and he's six years old. His name is Braden, and he just
0:34.2	I have to stop him from doing everything that I do. It's amazing. I don't know if you've ever

1:25.6	high school days and how I broke my hip in high school, but not from playing football. This was
1:30.6	during track season because my bones were so brittle. Long story short, diagnosis with the degenerative
1:36.6	bone disease and ending my hopes and dreams kind of thing. But I didn't get to that part of
1:41.3	ending the hopes and dreams. So after we were done talking, he says, so where'd you play in the NFL?
1:46.7	I was like, what? Where'd you get that idea? You know, and it was so shocking, but kind of cool.
