0:28
happened and then we did our contest I
0:31
won and I just stayed consistent who got
0:34
the money Trac
0:36
Tracy that's why you here she's still
0:38
holding on to the money cuz we still not
0:40
ready cuz they never finished he want to
0:43
say he W but they never finished Tracy
0:45
done paid C notes and rent bills laundry
0:48
Bill I'm going on vacation
0:51
tomorrow come on man and and so we we
0:54
did one of Dr Ian Smith's programs right
0:57
and we put up how much 250 250 each
0:59
right Dr I and to see whoever lose the
1:02
most pounds and I don't know what
1:05
happened we
1:07
quit tell you that budy is in a jar in a
1:10
secret space in my living room good
1:13
Tracy we trust you get no interest so
1:16
should I give it to y'all or we going to
1:17
reset no we reset in January I got a I
1:20
got a new book coming out in January
1:21
called eat your age eat your age eat
1:23
your AG that's January that's January I
1:25
love that what does that mean first give
1:28
it off for Dr Ean Smith back
1:32
so wait well is that why like okay so
1:35
when you're 20 you're able to take in a
1:38
different kind of Cuisine than you do in
1:41
40 absolutely so this book concept is
1:44
this so starting your 30s for every
1:46
decade of your life what are the best
1:48
foods to eat the best exercise for your
1:50
decade what are the tests you need to
1:53
have what are the numbers you need to
1:54
know for every so your 30s 40s 50s 60s
1:57
plus that's good I like that
2:01
your age what go ahead tra no please
2:03
what made you did you just have so many
2:05
calls and and and inquiries about it
2:08
that you decided maybe I need to put
2:10
this in the age thing what made you go
2:12
in this direction because people would
2:14
ask me advice they say I'm 35 or asking
2:16
advice someone saying I'm 50 or 65
2:19
asking advice and the same advice
2:22
doesn't necessarily work for everybody
2:23
right because your body's changing right
2:25
a 60-year-old woman has different issues
2:28
than a 30-y old woman
2:30
and so I was like well you can't uniform
2:32
just give the same information though
2:33
some of it is shared but a lot of it
2:36
could be decade specific so I was trying
2:38
for the long I've had this idea for a
2:39
while I was trying to figure out how do
2:41
you put it into a book so that everyone
2:44
feels like they can get something out of
2:45
it and so I I finally figured out the
2:47
formatting and so in January it's gonna
2:50
be eat your age that's a dope title too
2:53
good simple eat your age I'mma skip
2:56
through the 20s the 30s the
2:58
40s right there but it also helps
3:00
parents you know what I mean for those
3:02
who do have children that are in their
3:03
20s and younger also caretakers those
3:05
who are taking you know care of their
3:08
parents um well-being it makes me wonder
3:11
if you don't mind Dr Ian Smith sway much
3:14
of his family goes beyond the Centennial
3:17
years and I am willing to predict jeans
3:21
thank you gez I'm willing to predict I'm
3:24
trying not to that's why we that's why
3:25
you're
3:27
here I'm don't know people are
3:31
whatever I believe that sway is going to
3:34
be in the 100y old gang wow what would
3:38
what would you say I'm claiming that
3:40
look at me and keep your smile though
3:42
like Dr Ian looked at me like I don't
3:44
know Tracy what's some advice that you
3:46
would give to someone in that decade
3:49
well the the first thing I would say
3:51
about that comment is do you see
3:52
yourself at 100 that's that's a real
3:54
question I I honestly I do okay so so
3:59
let me tell why I say that I'll be
4:01
honest with you I do no that's good you
4:02
should I do too by the way so when I was
4:04
getting off the plane yesterday at
4:05
LaGuardia this lady was I helped her get
4:08
her bag out we were walking to the Jet
4:10
Bridge and I was just watching her okay
4:13
she probably was about I don't know 63
4:16
64 but I just I just thought to myself
4:20
like if if I could work on this lady
4:22
this is how I think I know I you know I
4:24
wouldn't say anything to her but I think
4:25
if I could work on this lady what would
4:27
I tell this lady what do you think I
4:29
would tell this lady what she was
4:31
struggling a little bit what what do you
4:33
think I would tell what's the one thing
4:34
I would tell her to start doing any you
4:35
were at the airport with her she was
4:36
walking she was walking up the Jet
4:38
Bridge struggling a little bit with her
4:39
little rly okay what would I tell this
4:41
lady um H
4:44
assistant grandson strength training
4:47
there you go protein
4:50
Mobility women
4:53
underestimate what lifting weights will
4:55
do for you and even men of a certain age
4:58
and what happens is we get older and
5:00
then our muscles start atrophying right
5:03
and then your joints become unstable and
5:06
all of a sudden you're kind of like
5:07
frail and you can't get around people
5:10
understand lifting weights is not trying
5:12
to grow huge muscles but it's about
5:14
maintaining muscle strength so that you
5:16
can take your bag out from the overhead
5:18
you can walk up a Jet Bridge without any
5:20
problems so people's functionality
5:22
starts to decline because their muscle
5:24
mass is declining and I don't think
5:26
enough older people lift enough weights
5:29
or do resistance bands yes I mean and so
5:32
that's I want to say lady man you got to
5:34
work out like three times a week yeah I
5:36
my wife that's all you would say minimum
5:38
three times a week at her age absolutely
5:40
that's all she needs to like you know
5:43
function right when you're that old and
5:45
you're that deconditioned you don't need
5:46
a lot now that's not going to work for
5:48
us SW and I would need you know much
5:50
more than that but for her that's all
5:51
she needs wait wait hold up hold up I
5:53
mean how many times a week we need five
5:56
five times yeah n yeah for function
6:04
you heard that right 1 2 3
6:09
four but the five the five times a week
6:12
would yield what results for you and
6:14
sway that's for someone who has the
6:16
goals of yeah it depends your goal so my
6:18
goal is always building muscle mass uh
6:20
I'm not trying to lose any weight I'm
6:22
trying to to make sure my weight doesn't
6:24
go down but I can build more muscle mass
6:25
so I'm keeping my lean muscle mass to
6:27
Fat ratio High which what sway would try
6:30
to do and so you have to do a lot of
6:33
resistance training and eat well so my
6:36
girlfriends and I were out on Sunday and
6:39
we got worded another girl a friend of
6:41
ours was weren wasn't doing so well and
6:43
the doctor had mentioned to her uh that
6:47
since she didn't want to take Manjaro or
6:50
OIC that he would
6:53
recommend five days a week doing um
6:57
maximum a half hour walking and I found
7:02
that wait wait but she wasn't doing well
7:03
in what way though wait just struggling
7:06
with her weight and said that she was
7:07
absolutely doing nothing in terms of
7:10
just moving around and that if she
7:12
started out right now just a half hour a
7:15
day that her numbers would change
7:16
drastically do you agree with that 100%
7:19
because oh wow the amount of work you
7:22
need to do is only in context to where
7:25
you are if you are severely
7:27
deconditioned which means you have
7:29
haven't worked out in a long time you're
7:30
out of shape you just require a small
7:33
amount on a consistent basis to get
7:35
results someone like us we work out a
7:38
lot so we require more work because our
7:41
Baseline is already so high right so yes
7:44
so if she were just moving around and by
7:46
the way a lot of people listening right
7:47
now if you just moving around more
7:50
though I would like you to kind of be
7:51
more more vigorous in your exercise but
7:53
just moving around 30 minutes 5 days a
7:55
week in a focused way is going to make a
7:57
difference then you're on a plateau
7:58
though yeah because right your body's
8:00
going to adjust to okay I'm used to
8:02
walking you know for a mile and a half
8:04
two miles so then you got to you got to
8:06
bump it up a little bit bump it up bump
8:08
it up yeah exactly oh W okay explained
8:10
yeah yeah five times a week y'all let's
8:13
get it man that's what let's go you
8:16

8:39

8:41
mire about him most is um some of the

12:02
novel brought to you by the one and only
12:04
Ian k Smith hey he's a New York Times
12:07
bestselling author okay and this one is
12:11
called Eagle Rock and and not for
12:12
nothing I was looking at this um this I
12:15
don't know if it was a poll I was
12:17
reading this article about literacy in
12:19
our youth in the country today is
12:22
skyrocketing down downward like kids
12:26
can't read or write bad
12:29
that's what makes this so special they
12:31
see someone that looks like you who can
12:33
obviously write and read but how can we
12:37
like what do we do to get our our our
12:39
children more intrigued with the reading
12:41
process well you know it's interesting
12:43
so as a kid I loved reading and I think
12:46
I loved reading I was a poor kid and
12:48
reading allowed me to go to places that
12:50
I could never go I couldn't afford to go
12:52
to places and so I could lose myself in
12:54
books right and I could travel over to
12:56
Paris and you know travel all over the
12:59
world and these these stories that were
13:01
great stories and so but I think that we
13:03
have to expose our kids to good I mean
13:05
Everyone likes a good story right
13:07
everybody and it may not always be
13:09
reading a hard cover I'm an old school
13:11
guy I like hard covers it may be
13:12
listening to audio books in fact this
13:14
guy here's a quick story I was working
13:16
on this rehab house in Chicago and the
13:18
guy who came over this electrician was a
13:21
brother um which is rare to have a the
13:24
electrician was a brother yeah I was
13:25
very happy about that by the way come on
13:27
get a black some money right right and
13:28
so he shows up but he's got his um phone
13:32
going so I'm listening he's listening to
13:34
audio
13:35
book and the brother said to me he said
13:38
uh you mind if I listen to this while I
13:39
work I said no he didn't he does he
13:41
doesn't I have a I go by a different
13:43
name so he didn't know that I was oh you
13:45
have an alias a little bit Yeah so so he
13:49
thought he thought I
13:52
work that would be a good one but he
13:54
thought I worked for the house I told
13:55
him I was helping manage the property
13:57
it's my property but you know so the guy
13:59
says do you mind if I listen to this I'm
14:00
like oh my goodness I love this but I
14:01
didn't want to be all excited cuz he be
14:03
like this guy's weird like I was like
14:05
yeah listen to it listen to it so when
14:06
he finished I was like hey what you
14:07
listening to oh I listen to Series this
14:09
Sci-Fi series The love this guy had for
14:12
this was amazing so my whole thing was
14:14
even though I like I have more tacti I
14:16
like to touch a book and Page yeah but
14:19
listen to have kids listen to books
14:21
audio books are great digital books are
14:23
great but however you can expose them to
14:25
good stories and it doesn't have to be
14:27
you know Shakespeare and faul and
14:29
Hemingway yeah who said these guys are
14:31
the Canon the literary canon that every
14:34
time you go to school you have to read
14:36
these people right the Heart of Darkness
14:38
Joseph Conrad no why can't you read
14:40
other authors that are newer that look
14:43
like us that talk like us so just give
14:45
them good stories give them good stories
14:47
man we got Dr Ian k Smith here the new
14:50
um book is called Eagle Rock a part of
14:52
the ash can series get the audio book or
14:56
get the hard copy book you're good to
14:58
have on your yourself Heather you want
14:59
to say something yeah because I feel
15:01
like Ian this always every time you come
15:03
up here to um speak about the series
15:06
itself it always reads and sounds like
15:09
and it also seems like you're writing
15:11
from a very visual perspective in hopes
15:14
I hope at least that you're looking to
15:16
put this on the
15:18
screen yeah so I was telling colani
15:20
before I came in here he he said how
15:21
long does it take you to write these
15:22
books I spend two to three months
15:24
writing in my head I write the whole
15:26
book in my head cuz I see it like a film
15:29
I I visually see I see the characters I
15:31
see the scenes these books all take
15:33
place in Chicago Chicago Bay series but
15:35
once I have the beginning how it opens
15:37
up how's that scene look like I imagine
15:40
this guy a really rich guy in a secret
15:42
apartment tied up wearing women's
15:44
lingerie why so I got my opening then I
15:46
go to my middle that's where things
15:48
change I go to my ending once I have
15:50
that excuse me then I can kind of Bend
15:52
everything in then I sit down and start
15:53
writing so it takes about 3 months of
15:56
writing into the computer but I spent
15:57
two months in my head first and so I
15:59
think you have to have a process that's
16:00
you know that's my process but I see
16:02
this as a TV series in fact um we're
16:05
pitching it now so let's see what
16:07
happens I mean you know Hollywood is
16:08
fickle but yeah I'd love to see Ash Kane
16:10
on the screen all right let me see let
16:12
me see where you gon yeah you see Simon
16:16
caner maybe I'll be Simon Elliot's son
16:20
uh you don't want to be launcher
16:23
race uhoh wow Tracy
