Yo, today, with the podcast, we're doing something extraordinary. We're about to shoot a live podcast in a tattoo shop. I got a fire guest that's going to be coming on talking about his story in a tattoo shop while he's getting tatted. You guys definitely want to make sure that you walked into this episode. Shout out to my guy Raw305. Listen, it's going to be amazing. You guys do not want to miss this podcast. Let's get it, let's go. So what do you think? What do you think trainers overlook or don't see in this area, in fitness, where they can really get a badge?
Speaker 2:My old boss used to tell me, all the time too, he's like you're not paying for a workout, you're paying for an hour of your time, a hundred percent. How much does your time work to you? Like? Is your time only worth 75 bucks? I plus grinding 16, 18 hour days to accumulate this knowledge and then trying on people and experience and see how it works and what doesn't work, adding tools to my tool belt every day. So I know, like, what to do, what not to do, when to try this, when not to try this. So you paying for that, what do you think kept?
Speaker 1:you in there, I'm so long.
Speaker 2:Well, I always tell people don't get in at all, because once you in it it's like almost impossible to get out Because it's addicting, like the power you get. You know what I mean. Like you're the man. Now you got some money, you got some clout. You know what I mean. So it's like, oh, I like this shit, you like everything that comes with it, until it all comes crumbling down. It's definitely easy to stay in it. Biggest challenge of running a gym, like any business, is finding good help. So like team, yeah, team, another train. Because people will be like damn, if it's not your class, I'm not coming and I can't have it. Then that's not a business, that's just me hustling.
Speaker 2:So it has to be where the product is the product, no matter who's teaching. But just to find someone who's willing to to dedicate their life to somebody else's business you know what I mean. When it's not theirs like, will they really treat it like it's theirs and help build it?
Speaker 1:what's up y'all? Welcome to another episode of the arm suit podcast. We're live in miami, we're on the move. You guys remember how we used to start the podcast. We actually shot all episodes mobile, in different locations. So look we out the studio this time with my guy, Sean Casey, and he's getting a tattoo. You know what I'm saying. He has a very interesting story, so you guys are going to learn a lot about what he got going on. So tap in, bro. What's up? What's up? Man when?
Speaker 2:you got me today, bro, we fucking with Panda. You know what I mean.
Speaker 1:Yeah.
Speaker 2:House of Panda tattoo best tattoo artist in the game. We about to start some tattoo wars, but real quick. Today's my best friend's anniversary day 21 years ago. So, ryan Fernandez, you know, got to keep that shit alive forever, so RIP baby Love you, yeah, 100%.
Speaker 1:And then you know we'll put a picture up and have his name going for you and everything like that on the episode, bro. So, oh, yeah, I see it. I see it. So, um, what's special about where we at what you're getting right now and why a tattoo?
Speaker 2:so, um, I mean pandas, he's the best in the game. I met him a few years ago. Somebody sent me his work when I was gonna get the butterflies and uh, we just locked in like that. And then recently he hit me by training. I've been training him for a couple months and I've been.
Speaker 1:You know the gym is my life.
Speaker 2:I live in the gym. It saved my life. Everything I do is the gym, so I was like I got to put it on me. You know what I mean. Like you got to rep your brand at all times. So, I might not have a hat, I might not have a t-shirt on me. You know I like to stay with my shirt off, so I got to make sure I got that raw on me all the time. You know what I mean.
Speaker 1:Like I live by this shit, so so it's part of me. What is raw, what is raw Like? What does that stand for? What does it mean to you?
Speaker 2:Raw is whatever you want. I mean just being raw, like you know. I mean just get it out the mug, get it how you live. I get that extra rep in the gym, get that extra rep in life. Don't quit on shit, you know. I mean like you wrong, like be authentic, be yourself, no matter what nobody says about you, what you think about yourself. Past experiences, I mean like just wrong.
Speaker 1:So so who was Sean Casey prior to you know you being an gym owner. You helping and changing a lot of people's lives with fitness. Who were you?
Speaker 2:before this, so before I got into the gym, you know I was fucking around in the streets and shit like that Ended up going away to federal prison for a while. Somebody actually put a murder for hire on me and it's crazy because he just one of the dudes who put the hit out on me called me Friday and was like yo, I just want to apologize, blah, blah, blah. So I feel like that was kind of like full circle type shit. But you know I was on the streets heavy like most of my friends were dead in jail. My best friends been 25 on a murder. I talked to my boys when 23, 30, like every day. So you know somebody who was just headed down the wrong path trying to get some money, you know trying to figure out life, but just in the wrong direction completely so what city you grew up in?
Speaker 1:I grew up in miami so you grew up in miami and you said you got caught up in some street stuff. So, so what type of street stuff did you get caught up in?
Speaker 2:um, I ended up going away. I played gifted to a weed charge, armed trafficking charge, but for weed you know we played around everything back in the day, a little coke shit here and there I caught a dope charge when I was like 18, but small shit. And then you know we was just ripping and running. You know what I mean.
Speaker 1:Strapped up since, like high school, Um, you know, just a lot of violence a lot of you know, robbing, stealing.
Speaker 2:You know what I mean, whatever it, the day and tear we was on. You know what I mean, but like I was really deep in it. So I mean like everybody was carrying guns at all times, like people were catching bodies left and right.
Speaker 2:People were dying left and right, people were going to jail forever, left and right. So it was like every day was like you could be your last. You know what I mean? It was just. I was out here trying to get some money, just acting a fool. You didn't really want to think about life, because you're so caught up. You know it's gonna end soon and not gonna end well, so just like you're always just moving around, you know, getting high and shit, partying, fucking with bitches, and then just moving, work all day, just waiting for the ceiling to collapse you think it was easy for you.
Speaker 1:Um, in retrospect, looking back on it, right, you're older now, so you know, as an adolescent, is it easy to just get into that life? Or is that like a choice that you feel like teenagers make? Or is it like you're just out and about, it's like this is what we're doing. Or you feel like kids that make it a conscious effort to like to do, to do that.
Speaker 2:I feel like it's super easy to get into this life, cause everybody wants to be a part of something. You know what I mean. That's why the gym is huge, because of community. You got different people you can go to. It's the streets, it's easy. You know what I mean. Like I played sports my whole life so I always had that camaraderie thing. Like I lost two of my friends when I was very young. So it's like you always just looking for someone you can relate to, similar age, that just like has your back and loves you. You know what I mean.
Speaker 2:And to get in the gang and to be in the streets you don't really have to do anything.
Speaker 2:You might have to get jumped in or like hit a lick or some, but it's like it doesn't take a lot of effort. So people are easily grabbing toward that because it's like a family without any of the effort to get in. Like you know, if you play sports you got to go practice seven days where you got to work out. You join a club in school, you got to actually put in the work. But if you you try to be on the block and just hang around, all you got to do is show up and just start doing dumb shit and you can fit in pretty quick. So I think people always want to try and gravitate towards like an organization or like-minded people where they can fit in. You know everybody wants to fit in, don't? Nobody want to be an outsider. So you know the streets and we glorify that shit nowadays, like in music and tv shows and shit. So I definitely feel like it's easy to get into the street like so easy.
Speaker 1:What do you feel like kept you in the streets? Was it money, lifestyle Combination? What do you think kept you in there so long?
Speaker 2:I always tell people don't get in at all. Once you're in it it's almost impossible to get out Because it's addicting. The power you get, you're the man now. You got some money, you got some clout. I like this shit, you like everything that comes with it, until it all comes crumbling down. Most people don't think that far ahead. They get so addicted to having money on them at all times To have people looking at them a certain way, the respect you get. You know what I mean. Like people move out of the way for you, they give you free shit, they, I mean. So it's definitely easy to stay in. It's almost impossible to get out, like. I think that's why people salute me how they salute me, because I got out and it's so easy to just go pick that pack back up and make a run. You know what I mean.
Speaker 2:So it's hard to get out that shit, so don't ever get in it because once you in, it is almost impossible.
Speaker 1:People still think I'm in it now. You know what I mean. You think you. You think, uh, how, how is it different now than the way it was back then? So you think like, let's say, let's say, if you were in that life and in that environment now, how different is it from from back then?
Speaker 2:I mean if I was in it now, I'd just be way more structured with it. You know what I mean. Like the discipline, the drive. I'll probably be a problem for real, but it just the feeling like you, you at war with yourself all day, like you're always looking over your shoulder. You got anxiety. Every car to get behind you could be the police or a jack boy, or you know I mean one. One bad shipment goes wrong, money gets fucked up, somebody gets jammed up. It's just you never have a moment of peace. You know I mean. So now it's like I can I feel good all the time. You know I mean I'd be proud of what I'm doing. Now it's like I feel good all the time. You know what I mean. I can be proud of what I'm doing. I'm not always hiding, I'm not living a lie. I'm proud to be me. You know what I mean. So definitely peace of mind. You know what I mean. When you're in the streets, there's no peace of mind.
Speaker 1:So what was the transition from you being in the streets to obviously having a realization that you know what this ain't for me. No more. I'm going to get out of it, I'm going to do something else. And then how to fitness like come to play with all that.
Speaker 2:Well, it never got to a point where it's like I'm done with this, I'm out of it. Because even when I went up the road it was still like, okay, we go into where all the best criminals are, so we're going to meet some plugs, do this shit again, because it's all I really knew, you know? I mean like I was so scared to fail and I didn't want to waste my time in school and then not know what to do and then be a play. So I'm like, even if I go to jail and this, at least I tried something you know what I mean so just ripping, running and shit like that.
Speaker 2:What was the question?
Speaker 1:like when did you realize that you had to get out of?
Speaker 2:it. I ain't never. I ain't never. Like when I was in jail, I just started working out, really, because I was like, all right, I have time. You know what I mean. You want to live with it.
Speaker 1:Were you working out before?
Speaker 2:No, I never worked out before jail, all right.
Speaker 1:So being locked up, you found fitness, I'm assuming, because there wasn't much else to do. Exactly.
Speaker 2:So you're doing push-ups, sit-ups, pull-ups. We didn't have pull up bars and then we had like a little room where we do like body weight exercises and shit. But it was just like, yeah, pull up dips, push-ups, burpees, squats, jump squats, whatever we could come up with. We would come up with some crazy ass shit too. You know, like we talked about earlier. You mean, people are resourceful yeah, in fact you ain't got much.
Speaker 2:You're gonna figure out a way to get it in especially you got a lot of people around you, somebody gonna come up with some shit. Yeah, sometimes good, sometimes bad, but you know we we're going to get that work in regardless.
Speaker 1:So you didn't have that habit of going to the gym prior to, so you locked up. Did you get into the habit of fitness? Is that now forming a discipline, or like when you so, when you get, when you leave, are you taking that discipline with you? Right, okay?
Speaker 2:That's like I feel like it's my biggest strong suit, like one of them is no matter what it takes, I'm gonna get the job done, no matter how I feel, no matter what is going on around me. Like if the job got to get done, we're gonna get it done. Like, no matter what we got to get up at this time, we're gonna get up at this time. We got to go walk a thousand miles, we're gonna walk a thousand miles because that's that's what we're supposed to do. And they instilled that in me in there like no other. Like I was already pretty disciplined in some areas in my life.
Speaker 1:But like that really locked me into a point where it's like there's just, there's no, there's no negotiations with yourself so you feel like, if you know, unfortunately, those that are locked up, or people that may have gotten locked up today or might be going away for a little bit, do you think that's a blessing that they can receive from being locked up, that discipline?
Speaker 2:I mean, I feel like everybody should go away for a little while, like, definitely remove yourself from society. Cell phones even if they got phones but just to really like find yourself. I'm going to create yourself. No distractions, no girls, no technology. Really, just it's you. What are you going to do with your life? You know what I mean.
Speaker 2:So you get a chance to really look yourself in the mirror, like, tell yourself, I'm gonna stop being a piece of, I'm gonna stop making excuses and I'm gonna try and better myself. And then, once you start bettering yourself, it becomes like a domino effect. You just want to keep getting better and better, because as you get better, you start to feel better and it's like okay, I like this. You know what I mean. So it definitely afforded me the time to fall into those, create those habits and then pause those habits, because out here there's so many distractions. You know you might be like well, I'm going to do this, I'm going to do that, I'm going to stop doing this, I'm going to stop doing that. But there's so many distractions, so many temptations, it's hard to really lock it in. And it takes a little while to lock those habits in, to make them permanent. So I feel like I had just create those habits and then instill those habits in me where they'll never be?
Speaker 1:How long was you locked up for?
Speaker 2:I had a 65-month sentence.
Speaker 1:I ended up doing like four and a half years. So what was that like? Friendships, family Did you have relationships with people that was close to you, and did those relationships change when you were locked up, when you got out? What was that like?
Speaker 2:I mean it was hard for me because I was 22 when I went away, so I knew most of my friends that I was with at that point were going to go get married move away shit like that.
Speaker 2:So that was tough. You know what I mean. You want to hold on to those last couple of years, your 20s and stuff. So that was tough. But the relationships I built inside are unbreakable. When you're at your lowest and people are stripped down, everybody's wearing the same things. You can only get so much stuff. You can't talk to your family, so you start to make relationships involved with people in there. It's just super genuine, you know I mean because I can't really do shit for you and you can't do shit for me. So it's like you know, we just like-minded people.
Speaker 2:Certain vibrations won't migrate to you and then you guys just help each other, get better, help yourself through the time, because you always have rough days in there. I mean you might get a bad phone call. You might remember some, and then those people that really held you down and made you go work out when you didn't feel like working out, or told you not to get in that fight when you were about to get a fight you know what I mean. So I still talk to a lot of them, dude, a lot, a lot. Unfortunately, a a lot. You know. Unfortunately, a few of them that I was really close with got out. Some of them went back in, some of them died. You know I mean because, just like we talked about the temptations and the distractions, you know I mean starts getting at them a little bit, they get a little itch and then next thing, you know, they back full throttle. And you know they didn't, they weren't ever to get completely out. So that's why I go even harder to represent for them.
Speaker 2:You, I mean, I saw how good they became in there when you remove the distraction and temptations like what a good people they could be and like how discipline and the things they could accomplish if they just would have Stayed on the straight line. And a lot of people didn't have this support system that I do, so, you know, it's easy for them to turn back to it. So that's why I really make sure that I got to stay focused. I got to stay focused, I got to stay disciplined. I can't let nothing knock me off track because I'm representing everybody that was in jail and everybody coming out for a second chance. It's like if I could do it, why can't they do it? So I feel like it's a position that I got to play and hold down.
Speaker 1:So where did the fitness aspect come from, as far as you creating the business side of it? So when you came, out out.
Speaker 2:Did you already have that idea? Where did you get the idea to create a business out of fitness? So one of my boys, t-fit, shout out, t-fit. He was doing the fitness thing before I went away, before. It was like a big thing. You know what I mean. And when I was in jail I heard he was doing pretty well. So I was like I was already had it in my mind like this is what I was gonna do, because I loved it, like I fell in love with it. I was gonna work out and train all day, whether I got paid or not. But seeing someone that I know do it and be successful at it gave me some confidence to be like okay, you can do this. You know what I mean.
Speaker 2:Like obviously I was nervous, I was scared, but I was like as much work as I put in in jail, like the reading, the study and the training, the working out. I was so confident in my preparation. I was like I can't fail, like I knew I was going to come out and crush it.
Speaker 1:I mean I had like a little nerve and stuff but in the back of my mind like there was no way I was going to lose so talk to me how you talk to me how you started it right, because there's a lot of trainers that especially miami 100 but there's a lot of trainers that'll never get a studio, but there's a lot of trainers that that don't really know their worth. You know I'm saying that there's a lot of trainers that over train. You know, you know I'm saying so. Uh, talk to me about, like, um, how you created your, your, you know the concept for for, obviously, having studio, your point. You know I'm saying the uh, the um, the plans, the training, like how, how did you come out with the idea? How'd you end up getting the studio? What was like getting those first clients?
Speaker 2:well, that's why now, like I really try and train trainers and help pay it forward so I can teach them like yo, you can get some money in this.
Speaker 2:You just gotta do it the right way because there are so many trainers and it is so saturated. But if you really stick to a script you can really get a lot of money in this shit, like dope money in this shit, but with the peace of mind. But when I was getting out it was I had a friend who had a gym and he was like I got you, but then that shit fell through. So I started just applying around different places. I never really wanted my own gym, I just wanted to go work at a gym.
Speaker 1:So you just started out just just like being a trainer at gyms.
Speaker 1:Yeah but every gym I had to interrupt the podcast episode to break down this exciting community that you need to join. Why? Because your podcast you haven't figured out how to monetize. Maybe you're someone that used to be like me, where I didn't really have anyone that could hold me accountable, nor did I have a group that I felt comfortable about. You know what? This is my tribe. I can grow. Well, listen, we put that together the Action Takers community. I'm teaching you guys our modernization secrets accountability, discipline, how you get better with content and this is just a group that you want to grow it. Click the link below. Let's go. Okay, look, so this is how we're gonna get you more exposure using the pod equals MC square strategy. Right. Then we're gonna bring out the air fryer and they're connected to the toaster oven method right, I think I wasted my money my money. Now, until we do all this, we're going to get you a million views and millions of subscribers.
Speaker 2:I have no idea what you're talking about.
Speaker 1:I got you, let me go get something. What's this box about?
Speaker 2:Bro, what is that?
Speaker 1:So we got your long-form podcast right here. Right, this is long-form audio. Okay, now I'm getting my money's worth. Got a service to get more exposure, get more views and get more call to action to get more sales. Let's go. This is what you need to do to get more of this Now. Do you understand? I completely get the vibe now.
Speaker 2:Before. I don't know what you was talking about, but this, right here, we're going to make a lot of money Because we gon' make a lot of money Because of my background. So I would go in, fill out the application, do the interview and they're like oh you more than qualified you A1.
Speaker 2:I got like nine, 10 certifications. I got jailed Like my, the way I spoke was on point, you know what I mean. So they were all like, oh, you're good, and then I would never get a call back. I would never get a call back. I would never get a call back. And then finally one of them told me like yo, it's because your background they're not allowed to tell you that, because they're not allowed to not hire a person because they're a felon. But they were like, yeah, that's what's stopping me.
Speaker 2:So I just went on full throttle, just applying everywhere, calling people, asking them if they knew anybody. And I was really about to go work at a pizza place the next day because I was in the halfway house. You can't leave the halfway house until you got a job. So I was there for like two weeks, no job. It just wasn't looking like I was gonna get it. And then I ended up that legacy fit, you know, shout out to manning for putting me on. And you know I had to beg a little bit, but you got the job done.
Speaker 2:And then his guidance, his leadership, that gym it was like perfect fit. So I just started learning from him and he was in his first gym. Now he owns, owns seven gyms, so I got to watch him open up all these different gyms, see how, see how it went, see his path, see, okay, maybe I would've did this differently. Or okay, damn, he did that like this. So being able to learn from him in that aspect. And then in prison I had Bezo. So Bezo ran that shit super strict. Shout out Bezo. Um, we were like 60 deep in there, but it was set schedule Monday through Sunday. You know exactly where you're going to be, at what time, what you're going to do, what bar you're on, who's in your group. And then when he left, I ended up taking that over. So I just fell in love with helping people get in shape. And then there was always people like yo, I'll pay you, I'll pay you, I'll pay you.
Speaker 1:Because, yo, I can make money, for instance, you know what I'm saying. Like, what do you think they, what do you think they're overlooking? Because I, I got, I got friends that train, I mean, I got a homie that trains back in la, where I was living, and I'm not in like I'm, I'm into fitness as far as lifestyle, but I've never been a trainer, you know. You know what I mean. So but I would always tell him like, yo, I think you're charging too low, bro, you know what I'm saying. Like, I feel like he was charging like he didn't really have no, he didn't have no programs, right, because I, I'm the one, I think, introduced having a program to him. I think he's charging like 75 dollars an hour. You know I'm saying, um, but he had a problem getting clients, so we have one, maybe one, two, then none, then maybe one. You know what I'm saying. So, like he was, he really wasn't into the marketing like that, and I just felt like, even after, 75 dollars to me was low for what you get.
Speaker 1:Like you changed somebody's life you know what I mean, um, and on the outside it changes them on the inside and then you give them habits. You know what I saying. So I feel like that, plus the accountability, you're changing someone's whole, you're helping them become who they're designed to be. You know what I mean? And the by-product of that is what they job confidence, marriage. You know what I'm saying. They can walk with their head up high, their chest put out. You know what I mean? Just yeah, 100%. And as a byproduct, I mean we live in America, man, people want to work with people that look good, you know, like, if it's you versus someone else, 100%. And that other person let's say the other person may be more qualified, right, but they don't really got the look. But the person that's not as qualified got the look.
Speaker 2:Most likely you're going to go with the one with the look. You know what I'm saying my boys would tell me the look going to draw them in and then, what you know, going to keep them 100%. So what?
Speaker 1:do you think trainers overlook or don't seem to kind of see in this area, in fitness, where they can really get a badge?
Speaker 2:75 in LA Miami is way too low. Like I charge 200 sessions and I don't. You got to do 10 up front, so it's 2000 for a 10 pack or I'm not moving. Yeah, I mean my old boss tell me all the time too. He's like they're not paying for a workout, they're paying for an hour of your time 100 how much is your time worth to you?
Speaker 2:like your time only worth 75 bucks. I spent 12 years plus grinding 16, 18 hour days to accumulate this knowledge and then try it on people and experience and see how it works and what doesn't work, adding tools to my tools every day. So I know, like, what to do, what not to do, when to try this, when not to try this. So you paying for that, you got to pay for all this time and this knowledge and this effort that I've soaked up over the years. So you definitely got to. I don't know how you can live in LA and Miami charging $7,000. You can't, bro.
Speaker 1:You can't.
Speaker 2:So it's like I feel like I'm the best trainer in the world and, like you said, I'm taking care of your body. You only get one body, 100% yeah.
Speaker 2:You can get a new car, you can get a new house. So if I'm not a good trainer and I give give you a torn ACL or a herniated disc or a separated shoulder or a sprained AC joint, it's like you're fucked. It's going to mess up your day. It's going to mess up your life. You're going to be in pain all day. You're not going to be able to move the way you want to move. So most trainers aren't that good. I feel like most trainers should get malpractice because they're really fucking you up.
Speaker 1:So when you find somebody that you have confidence in, that's holding you accountable, that's improving your life, that's changing your mindset, like you definitely gotta pray for that. Yeah, 100, I mean I would, bro, I would agree, because just someone that, like I said, I'm not a trainer, but every day I'm running, I run a mile every day and I'm in the gym every day and I built up that self-discipline within myself that I'm gonna go do the work. I still feel like I need and I want a trainer because it's like I should get a trainer too.
Speaker 2:100%.
Speaker 1:Like, coaches need coaches you know what I'm saying If you want to go to the next level. I mean LeBron got a coach, jordan had a coach, everybody needs a coach.
Speaker 2:You're going to see shit you don't see and they're going to 100%.
Speaker 1:Two more reps.
Speaker 2:Yeah, facts, that was good. It wasn't that good.
Speaker 1:Yeah, like even today, even today Over the weekend, I heard this stat. It was like because I'm 44. So I heard this stat, right, the stat was only 5% of men over 30 still run, right. And then it was like like I think the stat was less than 2% of men over 30 can do like a box jump over like 40 inches. So now that's in my head now right. So normally I'm hitting the weights every day, so now, like Sunday is going to be me going back to lateral movements, me doing lateral, I mean me doing ladder drills. You know what I'm saying High jumping, high knees. And today I hit the box I did. It was 44 inches on a box, so I hit it clean twice. You know what I'm saying. But it just made me think like the older you get, like you said, you got one body, you got one mind, you got one temple. You have to take care of this. You don't use it, you lose it. 100, you know.
Speaker 2:I mean like you see all these people professionally, even like they retire from their job next week, they're dead because it's like once you stop using your muscles, they go away and once they go away you get old, we can die.
Speaker 2:Yeah, like I'm not big into running and box jumps and stuff like that, because impact on your body I'm all about like risk reward. Yeah, my whole thing is just get you stronger, build more muscle, speed up your metabolism and then, if you want to do stuff like that, that's more of like a sport and a skill 100 I'm just my job is to get you ready for that yeah that foundation yep joints move in a good range of motion.
Speaker 2:You have integrity in your joints, like weak positions. You're still strong. I mean you got density in your bones. You're mobile, your strength it's just that strength mobility balance. So I'm just trying to figure out what works best for you. 100%.
Speaker 2:But yeah, you see a lot of people like my age. I'm 35. I see people looking like they're 75. You know what I mean. When I was up the road, you would see a lot of people go to medical and not come back. So I was kind of like, damn, I got to take care of myself.
Speaker 1:And If I don't?
Speaker 2:work out twice a day, I'm going to start thinking some crazy thoughts. I might end up doing something I'm not supposed to be doing, fucking with some vices hanging around some people. I'm not supposed to. But as soon as I get that workout in my mind like it refreshes you know what I mean. So it's like I definitely want to keep my mental health strong and then I want to be strong, I want to look good, I want to be able to take my shirt off in be like damn you know what I mean like it's the ultimate yeah, yeah, yeah.
Speaker 1:You can't, you can't buy that.
Speaker 2:You can't buy that when they do it, don't look right yeah fake ass. You got fake ass, but you're a yeah facts, yo people getting fake apps all day, bro, like fake it.
Speaker 2:Bro, you gotta earn this, you gotta put in the work, you gotta earn it like that's that's life. That's when you feel good. When you earn something. You don't earn it. When you cheat it, you feel bad. When you cheat on anything a test, a girl relationship, like you always get that like queasy feeling after. Even if you got no conscience, you can block it off like it doesn't feel good.
Speaker 2:But when you put in that work every day over years and years, and years and years you look in that mirror, you're like god damn boy I'm a sexy motherfucker, you know what I'm saying.
Speaker 1:Yeah, you ain't wrong, that shit feels good, I think. I think what makes it feel better and better is as you age and as you get older and mature. You know that less and less people that that you know or that you come up with are gonna have that like when I go home. It's just me, bro, like, like, like the homies I grew up with, they all looking older. You know what I'm saying. They're all looking way more mature, way more age. You know I'm saying so.
Speaker 1:So, as you, if you, if you keep these habits and you stay working out, you stay with your fitness, you stay on your game and you get older, you're gonna look at you it's gonna be easier for you to stand out amongst men or women that that are in your age bracket. You know, because the older you get, the less people are gonna be staying with them habits, stay with that discipline, taking care of themselves. You know people gonna get around. You know I mean I look a little older, look a little age, move a little bit slower. You know saying so, I don't percent. So what are some of the arm challenges of running the gym?
Speaker 2:Biggest challenge of running the gym, like any business, is finding good. So like team, team, another train people would be like damn, if it's not your class, I'm not coming and I can't have it. Then that's not a business, that's just me hustling, so it has to be where the product is the product, no matter who's teaching.
Speaker 1:Obviously people have their favorites and connect with certain people and you know, training is kind of like a cult, but just to find someone who's willing to to dedicate their life to somebody else's business you know what I mean when it's not theirs like will they really treat it like it's theirs and help build it?
Speaker 2:that's how I was at legacy fit. I treated it like it was mine, you know, I mean, and I ran to the top with it because I wasn't like, oh, I'm not getting paid for that, or oh, that's, that's outside my pay range, or it's like no job needs to get done, like let's do the job.
Speaker 2:So just finding people that are willing to go all in trust the process. Take a little less money in the beginning to go to the top. You know just everyday bullshit. You know you got clients who complain, people, this and that, but none of that stuff. Really Just finding good help you. When you find yourself some good help, it's easy, like I got me some good help now.
Speaker 2:So now breath of fresh air. I'm a little bit more calm down and then my class is better, my clients are better because I'm not worried about like damn, do I have to do this all myself, or what are they gonna think later? You know, I got a week late coming up. Next. It's like I know I got somebody holding me down. When I'm not there it feels good. You know what I mean yeah so definitely find the help.
Speaker 1:So talk to me about the money in the fitness space. I mean you're a gym owner. I mean you already kind of broke down like what it's going to take for you to even train somebody. You know what I'm saying, right? So what type of money can someone in this space let's say I'm a brand new trainer, you know? Let's say, I hear about you and I want to come under your tutelage, right? What can I learn as far as how much money I can make in the space or what my ceiling might be if anything?
Speaker 2:Well, that's why I'm doing what I'm doing now. I'm trying to help personal trainers maximize their income.
Speaker 1:You know what I mean.
Speaker 2:There's only so many hours in the day and there's only so many people you can see, obviously. So you're obviously capped out as far as, like, the in-person training. But I always tell people, especially new trainers coming in, like, can you do five clients a day at 100 bucks a pop? That's 15 grand for the month. You know what I mean. So I'm doing 200 a session. I teach classes in between two I gotta pay, but I'm doing no less than six, seven clients a day at 200 bucks. You know, I mean you make 1500, 2000 a day if you really got your foot on the gas yeah you can make anywhere from 30 to 60.
Speaker 2:You know what I mean minimum 15. To me the minimum is 15. Yeah, like you're a real training professional with it minimum 15. But you should be in the 20s 30s and then, if you're elite and you know how to move people together and they're cool with it, then you can get up into the 50s and 60s. But I don't see how you can do that.
Speaker 1:So just for clarity, you're talking about 50 racks a month, 60 racks a month, 30 racks a month, so anywhere between like 15 to like 60 racks a month, a trainer that's. I mean. If y'all listen to this right now, you're saying a trainer, a personal trainer can make about 15 to 60 plus thousand a month. You know what I'm saying? Somewhere in that range, yeah.
Speaker 2:Should be, but most of them start between like three and 10, they're in the five, six, six, seven range. Because they don't fully commit to it, they're not living it themselves. Like that's one of the biggest things, like you gotta live it, but people don't want to train with you. They gotta see it like it's almost like remember michael jordan in uh space jam he had like the super soup juice and it was just water, yeah people gotta think you got that sauce yeah I post my picture every day 4, 30 in the morning.
Speaker 2:People like damn, damn this fucking human.
Speaker 1:No, I've seen that. I've seen that joint, yeah, every day, not because I want to post a fucking picture.
Speaker 2:But it's like yo I'm showing you I'm really living that life. I mean I'm really in here getting it and I've really been training all day, every day. I really got all the tools in the tool belt, so it's like you got, you got to separate yourself and show people your craft and what you're doing.
Speaker 2:So your your first thing is you like, like we talked about, they got to see you that you live that shit, and then it's just grinding, grinding, grinding. You got to make sure your schedule is set. On the weekends you got to be texting everybody like, hey, what day you come and make sure the payments you run it like a business pay upfront for the month If you miss your session. I got a strict 24 hour cancellation policy. I don't give a fuck. You know what I mean. Kid's sick Cool, you got your work. Cool. Like I understand I don't take it personal, but like I got a kid too, you know what I mean when she's sick, I'm still here. This is my work. You know what I mean. I make sure I'm here for you. You're paying for an hour of my time.
Speaker 2:So it's being strict because treated like a business. So the more you run it like a business, the more the money will come. And then you got to be organized. You got to have your schedule set. You got to always be reaching out for new clients because people come and go and if somebody can afford 200 an hour, they can afford to go on vacation for the summer.
Speaker 2:Most of them are probably going to be in the south of france, so you might have to put like two, three people together to get that same 200, or you might have to train athletes in the off season or you might have to run a couple camps or something out in the field and events and shit like that, or to come up with that when it's not at the front. You know, the last four years people been a little fucked up because, uh, you know we got it back though, so now that money's starting to flow a little better so people can spend that little bit extra. But it's just about committing to the process and sticking to your script. And if you're doing anything that takes you away from the end goal or your script or your process, and you fucking up and it's gonna cost you money, so most people be oh no, I'm just gonna go out for a drink, but then you're not up at five in the morning with that same energy you might be up but it's not that same energy.
Speaker 2:And if it's that day or your client had a lot of energy and you bring them down, they're gonna be like fuck this dude. Or if you cancel on a client, like I don't never cancel on a client, ever give a fuck, got covid dead.
Speaker 2:Whoever like I'm gonna be there because, they might want to really train that day and that's when they might be feeling extra motivated. And then you tell them no and they're gonna be like man, fuck this shit. You know what I mean. So it's just about you're never off. People think like you get to pick your own hours and set your own schedule. Like no, you're living this shit 24 7. Like every time I get in the elevator I hit people. Hey, man, you work out. When you work out, hey, your hips look a little off like I'm always selling so what's up?
Speaker 1:what's up my, my cows look on or off, bro. What we got going on quick I'll tell you.
Speaker 2:It looked like your right hips a little higher than the same probably my bad, but they don't mean that those imbalances yeah certain pain and back problem so when you can help people fix their injuries and their chronic pain and shit like that.
Speaker 2:They fall in love with you. They'll give you their children. You know what I mean Christmas gifts and this and that. And you're going back to the money. Like I make a lot of money. I make good money for a trainer. You know what I mean. I never like because there are people out there killing it. Give me access to things that money can't buy. You know what I mean. I can get floor tickets to the games. I go in the backstage at the concerts. You know what I mean. Like I get to go to openings a restaurant they don't even hit me with a bill because they love me so much, because I'll go that extra mile for them every time. I'll park their car, I'll carry their kid. Like you see me in class carrying babies and shit. You know what I mean. Like you just got to go that extra mile and most people want to turn it off sometimes and you'll never get to turn this shit off. You get to do it 24-7.
Speaker 1:Was this the same energy that you had when you was using the streets with it?
Speaker 2:Yeah, yeah, I, that's why we were at a certain level and you don't really understand what you're doing is wrong, like you know it's wrong, it's a lot, but it's like this is the game, this is what we've been taught, this is what's glorified in music and movies. So we're going to do this Like that's one thing on me, like if I'm going to do something, I'm going all in. Yeah, that's why I. I let everybody, you know what.
Speaker 1:I mean, I feel like it's interesting how, like before, you were contributing to people's lives in a different way you know what I mean Like you were destroying lives and now you're building and you're giving people opportunities, like you're helping them out a lot. You know you're changing lives, right.
Speaker 2:Yeah, and that's what feels so good about it. You know what I mean no-transcript like yo, I need you to help my son. Like hey, I'm trying to get right. People call me at their lowest because they know they've seen me go through it and come back better for it. Most people don't do that. So being able to do that like feels really good. That's like my biggest accomplishment and that's why I want to pay it forward and go tell everybody like nah, leave that shit alone, bro. Like because when you in it it feels good. Like it feel you feel powerful. Like you the streets is fun. You know what I mean. But your day's coming, dog, like your days are numbered. So this side over here just feels so much better. Like when you help with people, when you're doing the right thing, when you make your family proud, when you be able to take care of your family, doing something positive, like it really really feels good.
Speaker 2:So I feel like I had to go through all that just to come out this side. So I really help people. Yeah, you know what I mean because I've been through it and I know the perspective and I know the intensity it takes to really make a change. A lot of people that never hit rock bottom don't understand, like, how intense you have to be to change. That's why I'm so intense, that's why I treat everything like life and death, because one wrong move and you're out of here.
Speaker 1:Yeah, yeah, so what do you think about? You know the recent election that happened. What's your feelings on that? As far as, like the energy in the country, you know what you're seeing from people, how it may or may not affect you.
Speaker 2:I mean it affects me, it affects everybody in a certain type of way, obviously with the money and the inflation and taxes. You know Team Trump baby, you know we do, and not that like I love Donald Trump as a person, but just as far as what I've seen from his presidency, I fuck with, I respect it. You know what I mean. Like I used to be like, oh no, he's a piece of shit too that I'm a vote for because the money. Then this girl shout out to Linda. She really showed me his policies. Like he did more for black people than any other president ever has. You know. I mean like he helps, uh, the economy better than it ever has. You know I mean like he you may say like a good old boy type shit, but like he denounced kkk a thousand times shit like that but the media will spin it and do all this shit.
Speaker 2:You know, kamala harris, she's locking motherfuckers up left and right for trees. I'm probably gonna get killed for talking politics on this shit, but I don't give a fuck you know I mean, but I feel like they brainwash a lot of people. They get celebrities and athletes, people that have clout to communicate to the no yeah, I think so, yeah, and like they trick me for a little bit, you know.
Speaker 2:I mean like when you're putting it in front of your face all the time, you're not really doing that research. It's like what they teach you in school is not how to get money. I feel like, yeah, not at all.
Speaker 1:I mean, bro, just COVID alone yeah, that didn't open your eyes. That's what I'm saying. In South Florida, that's what I'm saying everything was open.
Speaker 2:It was like this shit, don't make sense yeah, like I feel like people got to really like take this into account, like does that make sense if they don't? Like just somebody tells them something they go for? They go for it. You know what I mean and I've never been that person like I gotta, you gotta show me. So I feel like a lot of people been blinded by I, the government in general. You know. I mean like I like trump because don't do anything for me. I mean I'm gonna do this myself. Like I don't want no help, I don't want no favors, don't take nothing from me, don't give me nothing. Like let me live my life and I'm gonna make the best of it. You know, I mean regardless who's president, not much is going to change either way. That's why we in america because you know the house and the senate control everything, majority pretty much anything.
Speaker 2:So it's like, will there be some changes? Yeah, but again you got to control what you can control. There's nothing I can do about it.
Speaker 1:Yeah I agree with that.
Speaker 2:You definitely got control so whether it's kamala, whether it's biden, whether it's fucking panda whether it's me the next person. Yeah, if I go out and live my life. I'm supposed to live every day like it's not really gonna matter you know I mean if I take care of myself, my community and my people around me.
Speaker 1:You know I mean like we're gonna be all right I mean no matter who the fuck's the president.
Speaker 2:So it's just kind of like yeah, I prefer this and this, but at the end of the day, like I can't control it, so I'm just keep working on me and if it's a fucked, up situation I'm gonna have to overcome it.
Speaker 2:If it's a better situation, it'd be easy to overcome, but either way, I'm still. I'm still going for perfect. You know. I mean like I'm shooting for perfect. I'll never get it, and I'm aware of that. I mean far from perfect, but like I'm gonna try and be perfect in everything I'll do because that's the standard and I feel like if more people live by standard of like you know, I'm gonna do this shit myself and whatever it takes and we'd be okay, and not looking for a handout or for some free shit and some whatever so you mentioned that, uh, your father, so, so talk to me a little bit about family.
Speaker 1:What would that mean for you?
Speaker 2:I mean family's, everything. You know what I mean. Like I'm pretty like quiet, care about my family, anything like I feel passion for really love. You keep quiet because you know I've had people try and kill me. I've been in the streets and like that. So it's like I try to protect them, like that and even like if I'm out in public with them and somebody looks at them and says something wrong, like I'll attack. You know what I mean. So I'm very like I like to keep them private in a way and I haven't always had the best relationship with my family because of my decisions. You know. I mean like I come from a good home. I went to private school. My dad's a lawyer. He worked his ass off every day, you know. I mean he's a good dude like morals, morals, values. He speaks very well. You know what I mean. So I think that's part of why I speak how I speak, just to piss him off a little bit. You know what I mean rebellion, and yeah, I got to but no family's.
Speaker 2:Everything like, like I told you earlier, my support system, like getting out of jail, having people make sure I did the right thing, stayed on the right path. These prices because a lot of my friends didn't look where they ended up you know what I mean like they never gave up on me. I would do anything for my family. I know they wish I would come around more and spend more time with them and stuff.
Speaker 2:They don't understand. I'm always working, working, working Because I want to make them proud and I want to be able to take care of them and shit like that. But family is everything. Now that I'm getting older, especially, I want a family of my own. I have a daughter. She's 17. And I regret not being there as much as I should have going away working too much. We have a great relationship and special and if I ever have another child, it'll be nothing like that, because I had her when I was 17, 18. You know what I mean and she's been with me through all this. But I like to have a family and be an actual father and try and show the world what like masculine and feminine energy is supposed to be, and like what a family is supposed to be, and how happy it'll make you and how good for the world it is when everybody plays their role. Not just like this crazy miami situation, shit party scene like three baby daddies five different months. You know what I mean.
Speaker 2:Like yeah and I'm not knocking none of that shit, because I mean it just.
Speaker 1:It is what it is, that's not, that's not the way I feel like we're supposed to conduct ourselves in the world.
Speaker 2:You're supposed to have a family, you're supposed to have a male and a female, masculine energy, feminine energy. You combine those and then you raise your children with love and everybody, like you, pick me up where I drop off and I pick you up where I drop off, and we both work on ourselves together and just I feel like everyone in the world is connected.
Speaker 1:So if we're doing that, we, everybody's showing love and we, we operating at a higher frequency than the world to be a better place, but I'm huge on family, so how did being a father change you at all from? I mean, you was a father young, so so what was your?
Speaker 2:some of your perspectives I mean there was no big like, oh shit, like I gotta. You know what I mean. I was so young and I was so ignorant to the situation. I thought I could handle that shit in two seconds, but then it started to really like creep up. You know what I mean. I had so much help, though, from my family, from my mom, from my dad, my sisters, like everybody helped out so much.
Speaker 2:So, but it just always made me have that thought in the back of my mind. Like yo, you got somebody who's dependent on you. So when a lot of my homies were crashing out like kitchen murder charges like doing things that were just above and beyond where it's like you're never gonna get out of jail. You're gonna get caught.
Speaker 2:It was like, man, maybe I shouldn't do that. It was like that, almost like another conscious voice in my head, like you got somebody depending on you forever, like it looks up to you, that that she's gonna have to tell people you're her father and she gonna have to put her head down and be ashamed of you or she gonna be like that's my daddy. You know what I mean and I'm proud of him and I love him and he gives me a good example. Like me and my daughter go over a script that I took nifty hustle. You know rip nip. You know I fuck with nip heavy. Um, I ask her what's integrity and she answers doing the right thing when no one's watching. Are you a leader or a follower? A leader, what's a leader? Somebody who makes their own decisions for themselves. You know what I mean. So that was just. You know, having another you looking at you like what are you going to do? What are you?
Speaker 1:going to show that's crazy, though who you going to be.
Speaker 2:So that definitely is. She saved my life too, you, because I was always trying to prove myself, but it was like, no, I can't, I got that one.
Speaker 1:So if you came from a good home, bro, if you came from a good home, good background, good support system, you know what I mean. You sound like you came for love. You know what I'm saying. You went to private school, definitely. What was it about your environment that made you rebel or go the other way? What was attractive about that? Why didn't you kind of stay in this environment and blossom and grow a different way versus the experiences that you had?
Speaker 2:I mean, I feel like my personality in general is just always to rebel. When I came from a good home I wanted the street shit and then when I went to jail I became a better person. You know what I'm saying when someone kind of tells me you can't. And then I played a lot of sports and I was good at sports. So it was like the kids that in the areas that I was around couldn't really play with me, like I was playing three, four years up from the time I was like seven years old, so they would take me to the hood a lot like coaches and other people like let's see if you play with the real boys so you know I got that.
Speaker 2:Yeah, you know what I mean and that was and being the only white person and being small, it was like you got to be extra gangster with it, like you can't let nobody punk you, you can't let nobody try. Like I'm swinging off the rip, like you look at me wrong just because I gotta stand out. In that sense of not, you're gonna try and take advantage of me. So just sports really like brought me into that that type of environment, that type of culture, and then you know hip-hop culture in general, you know they glorify that like selling a pack, being a man catching a body like bitches that
Speaker 2:crazy, yeah. And then my idol is Allen Iverson yeah, yeah, yeah, that's mine too. Yeah, poros, tattoos and stuff. So it's like yo, these are the people I'm looking up to and this is what they're doing. So that's why now, even more especially, it's kind of like I'm trying to pay it forward, like the athletes. I mean, you see kids like that, you try to take them in and be like, not like, stay on the right track, so then you can go back and teach somebody. I mean, so we all start to change, and then you grab somebody to pay it forward. But I said the collective gonna improve.
Speaker 1:so, knowing what I came from to. I feel like it helped me when I was down there.
Speaker 2:Because I know what this is like. I'm almost like the bridge. I feel like I got used to take all the hood kids to the rich people party. You know what?
Speaker 2:I mean, and then drop them off and it's like, nah, they cool, they with me. You know what I mean. So it really brings the gap between you might judge him because he looks this way and he's from here, but you're going to know him, you realize like damn, that's a real cool person. Yeah, and a real cool individual just happened to come from a fucked up situation. So you know what I mean. Sports really drew me to that and then I just like to rebel.
Speaker 1:You just like to rebel, yeah. So what's Sean Casey like now? Business man, an entrepreneur, a gym owner, the father? You know more mature. You're in your 30s. Who are you now? What's important to you now? And then, what are some of the goals and visions you have for the future?
Speaker 2:I feel like now I'm a leader. I never thought I'd say that, but as far as my generation 35-year-olds like 40 to 25, you look around and people aren't really living correctly, especially in Miami.
Speaker 1:It's like people don't operate off integrity and value and they don't stand on principles, and then this is what our kids are looking up to and seeing so they're going to operate like that too, so I feel like it's my job to kind of lead the way and be like no, don't do it like that.
Speaker 2:It might be the easy way out, but that's not the right way. You know what I mean. Good or bad, hard or easy, do the right thing, do it the right way. Even when I was in the streets, I tried to really stand on principles and shit like that, but now more than ever even it's like I want to show people like how you're supposed to live and just be a leader for everyone around me and help people have better lives and become better people.
Speaker 2:So Sean Casey's him, you know what I mean. Like I'm him, I'm the one that's going to get the job done. No, matter what I'm going to be there every day when you call and you can't go to nobody else, like I'm going to be there and I'm going to handle business, just so you can see that there's people like that that still exist. And then the little homie and be like damn you know what I mean Like.
Speaker 2:I ain't got to look up to a dope boy. I ain't got to look up to a ball player, like he's just a regular dude out here. You know what I mean Grinding his ass off, made a living, made a name for himself, took care of his family, gets respect out here, just based on character, not money and not some other fuck shit you feel me.
Speaker 1:So what do you think the future of Wild 305 is? And future of fitness? I mean, we got ai, we got all this new tech, you know, I mean, like I even did in brickell, um, I was with my, my friend, she brought me by this, this, um, this fitness spot, and it combined like electricity yeah, I hate that. You know what I'm saying like, and then it was a whole different thing. So so, yeah, so you think we think that the future of fitness is, and what's the future of roth 305? The future of fitness is?
Speaker 2:and what's the future of Raw 305? The future of fitness, I'm hoping, is to change it, like that's my goal, to change the fitness industry Because, like you said, like electricity shit, like it's a lot of gimmicks.
Speaker 2:Like they're just trying to get you in to spend some money and they throw this little oh, get your heart rate in this zone, or you get a point for this and a start start and it's all gimmicky related. And that's not what fitness is. Fitness is like life. You know what I mean. You do the hard shit every single day.
Speaker 2:You get a little bit better at it. It gets harder, it doesn't get easier, but you get stronger and then you overcome and you feel good because you overcame and then you get the results. So it's like fuck the gimmick shit, fuck all that, like I I don't know how to explain it but just the bullshit, the glitter and gold. That's not what it's about. Fitness is life to me. You know what I mean. You get stronger as life gets harder. You get stronger and then you feel good because you know any situation you walk into, that you're going to be able to overcome it because you've been practicing every day. It's not that, oh, it's easy now. No, it's just, I have confidence in myself because I know I can overcome any situation. So raw 305 is just a place where we really exercise, no gimmicks it's just you get in here every day.
Speaker 2:You do the work and it's got to be perfect. Your form got to be perfect. You got to show up on time. You got to do exactly what you're supposed to do. You got to be able to keep yourself under control and just get better every day and then, no matter how you you feel, no matter what's going on in your life, like this is something that has to get done. It's not a hobby, it's not a fad, it's a necessity for life. You know what I mean.
Speaker 1:So, as we wind it down a part, bro and I actually really like how you put that, bro, because I feel the exact same way it don't matter how many days I hit that mile, it don't matter how many days I hit that gym. Some days I feel like doing it, some days I don't, but every time I finish it I feel great. And some days are going to be easier than others. Some days are going to feel harder, right, it don't ever get easier, but you feel amazing once you accomplish it, and I think, especially for those that are working out in the morning, if that's one of the first things you're doing, you're gonna feel great after that. Right, because you ran a mile or three, or five or ten. You know I'm saying you, you, you threw up some weight, um, you hit a class, whatever the case may be, so, so, so I would definitely agree with you there. Um, if you were going overseas, to a country you've never been into, to do a workout with someone dead or alive, what country would you go to? Who would you?
Speaker 2:want to do a workout with, oh wow, I mean probably Nipsey Hussle or Allen Iverson. I mean, ai was my childhood role model. I would die if you just like, touched his hand, like the way he carried himself, the confidence, the little motherfucker that's going at everybody injuries this shit, that shit.
Speaker 2:so just to be in his presence would be dope and then nipsey, nipsey's, like you know, rolling 60s gang members hood as it gets. But to be so educated and to progress so much and become such a good person and help so many people and change so many lives, but still kind of have that like street mentality and that swagger and a little bit, but just the progression, you know, I mean you watch dude progress at a place where people ain't supposed to progress. Yeah, you know, I mean like hats off to him all day.
Speaker 1:So probably those two and then what country you going to country?
Speaker 2:yeah, I've never really traveled like that, like I went to Mykonos once, athens, but probably somewhere in Europe like Italy maybe.
Speaker 1:So you're going to work out with Nip and AI in Italy and then his pasta. Yeah, yeah, yeah, that's what's up.
Speaker 2:That real shit. But like the quality of food over there. You hear people eat pasta all day, all day, and gain a pasta. Yeah, yeah, yeah. That's what's up, that real shit, but like the quality of food over there you hear people oh, I eat pasta all day, all day, didn't gain a pound. You come over here and it's like that's how fucked up it is here.
Speaker 1:Like people really don't understand Like yo, you're gonna you're killing yourself with your decisions.
Speaker 2:Every day you make is life or death.
Speaker 1:There's no like oh it's not that serious.
Speaker 2:Yeah, it's that serious. It is that serious, Especially if you're trying to go somewhere and accomplish something Like we only got so much time, we only got 25 hours in a day. You know what I mean. Like the clock's ticking, Like I'm already on the back now. I feel like most people average age is 74. Yeah, 100%. So, let's do this shit, bro. Let's do it Everything you got.
Speaker 1:Yo, listen, I can't say no better than that. I mean, listen that right, there is it. I actually just said that yesterday to a friend of mine Because, again, you know what I'm saying I'm 44. So I'm like if I got 50 years left, I'm going to be 95. You know what I'm saying? That's probably like 20 years longer than what the average man man lives. So like me putting this work every day, me being healthy, like I'm putting daily deposits to my future, so the only way I'm either going to be in that position is by doing the work right now.
Speaker 2:You know saying my bad, but I'm like that's how I explain it to my clients and stuff too. Like you said, the daily deposits yep, but like all reps ain't created equal on created equal so make sure you do it right, so you deposit those $100 bills into your bank account, not your singles.
Speaker 1:Pick the correct exercises.
Speaker 2:so you deposit $100, not singles, because if you add up 10 singles, that's $10. You add up $10,000, that's $1,000. Do that every day over the course of a week, a month, two years.
Speaker 1:You're making sense right there, like the bank account gonna be fat. So it's like you want a fat bank account, not not an overdraft bank account. Yeah, facts, that's a really, that's a really good way to uh to look at it. So, so what do you want to lead the people with? Bro, I don't know if you got a book. I feel like if you don't got a book, we gotta put one together. You know, I mean, you need, you need one. That's like a combo, like it's. You give me some life stories, you know I'm saying, but then you also give me you know I'm saying, but then you also give me you know what I'm saying Some structure. So what's something you want to lead people with? And then, on top of that, if someone can't afford to get in a gym, what's one exercise that you would recommend that they could start with from home or outside?
Speaker 2:I mean everybody can do push ups and pull, like get a towel, pull it on the door like use a T-shirt, just start moving, start walk, go walk, go walk, just start walking. And you can afford a gym membership, like figure it out, you fit ten dollars, like go get a job.
Speaker 2:Find a way like you need weights, you need resistance, so get your ass in the gym. Stop making excuses. Figure it out like you can get yourself a fucking gym membership or a band or something, but you got to work all the muscles. So it's like that's kind of hard because my expertise I want to like, okay, if you like this, do this. If you like this, do this, like this. But it's like yo go for a walk and then like pick up some heavy shit. You can do a good form and then just keep picking it up. But definitely get in the gym like you need tools. You know you can build a house with mud and sticks, but like yo, use the tools. Yeah, it's ten dollars, bro.
Speaker 2:Like you can make it happen and then, once you start building up, you go to another gym, you figure shit out like shit, like that, and then what I want to leave the people with is like it's just one day at a time. Don't get so overwhelmed with where you're trying to be in 10 years, five years. Obviously have that goal and vision in mind, but like handle your business right now, today, like what's in front of you right now. Put all your energy into that.
Speaker 2:Be in the moment, handle your business, because you'll never get this moment again that's right and then, if you handle this moment and then I handle next moment to the best of my ability and the next moment to the best of my ability five years, a year from now, I gotta be straight because if I did my very best now, like how could I? So I don't even worry about, like I got so much shit going on in my head, like if I thought about I'd probably jump off a building, you know I mean, but it's like yo, what am I doing right now? If I handle this, I got a better chance of the end road. So just stay calm one day at a time and just handle the moment, be in the moment and give your all to that moment, because you'll never get that moment again.
Speaker 1:And let people know where they can find you, where they can lock into the gym. I don't know if you got any free giveaways or free training, free classes or a way that people can kind of experience the jump into coming to miami, but let everybody know that's loving it right there, sean casey s-e-a-n-c-a-s-e-y 305.
