Believe in yourself. And, you know, do in school. Study, learn it's important. Matthew Januszek 0:51 Such chart you've got a business degree then. Chuck Liddell 0:53 Yeah, rather than the counting, Matthew Januszek 0:55 counting See, says he's got business degree. Right? I didn't get a degree. It's pretty. You gotta you gotta use your brain and stuff. To take his advice. Chuck Liddell 1:15 It doesn't have to just be school. Learn, yes. Or no. But most importantly, believe in yourself. I mean, I had nothing. I was raised by my grandpa ma'am. Like, you can do anything you want. If you want to work for go get it? But yeah, that's good. It's a everyone takes work. Nothing's easy. And we given all the gifts in the world if you don't work, someone's gonna, someone's gonna pass you up. Work. All right. Matthew Januszek 1:49 There's your special. Thank you. Unknown Speaker 1:55 And I will speak to you after? Yeah. Chuck Liddell 2:03 For the most part guy, people come back pretty easy. And I mean, it's a temporary thing getting knocked out. Chuck Liddell 2:14 It's real. They go out. But I mean, for the most part, you come back pretty quick. Yeah. The guys that are laid out for a while. They can be some damaged, but most, for the most part, getting that they say now a lot of the CTE stuff from other damaged stuff is from repetitive stuff over short periods of time, more than it is getting knocked out one time. I got I think and I think I've always said that's what helped us a lot in Boston in MMA is the fact that Well, a couple of things. One, we have a commission you get knocked down to fight you get, I think you start with a 90 day suspension, they move it down. If you recover faster, they get, you get recovered. You get some for recovering. But the other thing is, there's so many different things you need to learn and train and do for our sport. As opposed to the difference between boxing or kickboxing and MMA is you have to wrestling these things that you can't do as much striking. You can't do and we and you have to when you're training Yep, training different you can't really train yet but a lot of boxes. A lot of hard sparring guys get after the gym, you know, they beat up those sparring partners, they beat up. A lot of guys come up through the ranks being a sparring partner and getting beat up. So I mean that's a lot of timeI just couldn't remind people and there's disagreement whether or not really ready when you do it for eight weeks or six weeks. Matthew Januszek 10:30 Okay Chuck Liddell 10:34 There's disagreements whether or not you know, it really helps my train. Thanks, guys. Thank you. I mean, it's obviously tougher when you get up there. Yeah. I mean, the new gesture, but then how long do you stay adjusted, your body's really good at adjusting back. Right? We get to when you're done. You know, we don't need it anymore. But your body's really good at adjusting back to being normal. Right? I mean, I think it's important if you're going to find it that level. Because it's tough to walk in there in the first you know, first day I first time I met some guys that were training for Big Bear. first couple of days up there. I was glad I was just a sparring partner something like I'm taking up taking around the half off. I'm doing two rounds off but yeah but when you come back down, but I don't know how much it really Oh, yeah, I think I mean, I think the guys that live up there live at that level, year round, or now I think they have I don't think it's just as fast right? Like, come back come down for a little bit. I think it helps. Yeah, they still have that it stays in that system for a long time. Yeah. I did mount climbing show in Peru trying to make it like oh, they're doing so good. And they got a 40 pound 50 pound packs on are walking up this three hour hike and shootout to 4500 feet elevation change and go for 14,000 516,000 feet and it'd be all really cool if the porters were running by with hundred pound packs and laughing us since the guys a little third right there they're moving the gear up from the camera guys right and all their camp there because they're the camera crew. Okay. Have a separate campaign is that these porters running up all this stuff on this camera people? Watch it. I'm like, Look, man. Next time we come by Can I can I get you tell me what size of shoes? I'm getting some shoes because I'm tired of you running by me. You know, loafers. I'm gonna do some hiking. So at least some nice shoes run up here is trail shoes. Something. Yeah. But they're getting paper, I guess a paper bag. I was okay. Matthew Januszek 12:52 That's incredible. Yeah, I had some of those runners as well that sort of live up in altitude that you know, they're quite good marathon runners, aren't they? Chuck Liddell 13:00 Yeah, that's cool Matthew Januszek 13:07 Like, I've only I've not done it a lot, but a bit like sometimes I got to that there's the place up in San Francisco. I've been up there in the summer. Mark master offs got a place up there. What’s it called? m? What's up big ski resort called up in? snow near San Francisco. Just past San Francisco. Tahoe? Yeah, I've been up there a few times. And we've done like fitness camps and that Yeah, I feel first few days you can kind of feel it. And then you know, slowly get used to it. Yeah, good. Right. So we all good Kevin. Okay, so look, well, um, can you do like 30 and 45? For me? Yeah. So well, it's fairly conversational. That the audience is there in the fit pros, you know, in the fitness community, trainers, owners that that kind of audience so it will sort of cover a bit of the business side. And then obviously, as an athlete and a mindset. That's the general theme. If there's anything you don't want to talk about, we've added it or Yeah, that's fine. Yeah. If there's anything you don't want to talk about, if you want to stop it's not live so we can stop edit. Cut it out whenever you want. Chuck Liddell 14:20 Moved by the drink. Crack for crack limited to 2.6 hundred milligrams of caffeine. Yeah, that's a good start. Matthew Januszek 14:45 Yeah, I have one of those. Yeah, but I didn't have one before I had one the other day. No. Got me. Got me tingling a bit. Okay, so I just roll straight into it. Fantastic. Well, Chuck, thanks for making it down. Throughout offices appreciate your time. Chuck The Iceman, Liddell. Where did Where did Iceman come from there? Chuck Liddell 15:09 I'm really okay. It came by trainer, John Hackman me I think he nicknames people a lot of time too so it's easy to remember their name I knew my name but he was always making nicknames for people who liked it. So we had a nickname for me that you know, we do in my fourth fight kickboxing as a strong Ballroom in Bakersfield. And there's about 15 or 16 fights on the card.
