0:00.0	Six out of seven people who go on a diet lose weight. It's pretty simple. It's not easy.
0:06.1	People don't adhere long-term to diets. About 90 plus percent of people gain the weight back within three years.
0:16.1	Having said all of that, if you're overweight, significantly overweight obese, probably a BMI exceeding
0:22.1	30, 35, 95% of the health benefits that you'll realize are strictly from the weight loss itself
0:32.0	irrespective of the diet.
0:41.4	Stan Efferding, welcome to the show.
0:43.3	Thank you for having me. I appreciate it.
0:50.1	I'm really excited. So changing your body composition is one of the most difficult things I've ever done in my life.
1:28.8	It's also, when I think about mindset and I think about entrepreneurship, if I could give anybody the gift, it would be to get them to go into the gym to change their body because you really realize in a super tactile way that change is possible because the mind is so invisible that if you've never gone through a body transformation, it's, I think, difficult for people to believe in the depth of change that's possible. Tell me a little bit about your background. Did you start? Obviously, I know the punchline, but did you start big? Did you start small? Like, how did you get to the muscle mass we see today? I wrestled 98 pounds in high school. The freshman and sophomore, I was 106 as a junior.
1:35.3	150. 1.06 as a junior? As a senior, I weighed 115. Oh, how tall were you? I was almost six foot. I was reasonably close to that. Yeah, I'd only gained about another inch or two. My senior year, I had a late, uh, uh, uh, onset puberty. I was eating terrible. I was working at 7-11 from the time I was 12 years old, and so my food choices consisted of the hot dogs and the nachos with the pump cheese and soda pot. My favorite. And that's what I was having. We grew up on the same diet. Yes. It didn't help me much for, I think that was probably the primary driver of the delayed onset puberty was the fact that I wasn't sleeping very well because I was working a swing shift and getting up and morning going to school. Probably put in, you know, until midnight or so before I got home. And then eating like that. So I didn't have the foundation for my body even to grow. A lot of folks consider that to be just a matter of
2:18.3	timing of genetics, but I think that your body has to have the right substrate.
2:23.3	But if you're a lean athlete that is trying to continuously year-round cut weight to meet a lighter weight class,
2:32.3	such as in the case of wrestlers, like we mentioned
2:34.4	in case of distance runners, even gymnasts, ballerinas, those kinds of sport that put a high
2:41.4	priority on weight loss, especially through puberty, the time at which you should be accumulating
2:49.6	the most bone mineral density, which is a finite time.
2:53.6	It's not like you can continue to do that.
2:55.6	Generally your bone mineral density, the bulk of it is acquired through your teen years.
3:00.6	Dude, childhood freaks me out because it is so, there are mistakes that you can make that are
3:06.6	either impossible to unwind or nearly impossible to unwind, whether that's psychological, which is what I spend a lot of time thinking about or physiological.
3:14.8	That's pretty terrifying.
3:16.4	We were talking before we started rolling camera about the bifurcation between men and women.
