The Jordan Syatt Podcast

In this episode I speak with Gary Vaynerchuk about my 3-year tenure as his personal trainer, coaching him 7-days/week for 3-years straight. Some of the questions I asked him were: - What was your very first impression of me? Both during the interview as well as once we began coaching. - What’s the workout which you cussed me out the most? - If you could only teach your children 3 things (fitness/health related), what would they be? - If you lost everything and could no longer afford a full-time personal trainer/nutrition coach , would you still stick with your fitness?   - If there’s one thing you wish I learned from my time with you, what would you want it to be? - What is your favorite and least favorite exercise? - How do you think AI will impact the fitness industry? - And much more...

John discusses:

- Israel's use of 2,000 pound bombs

- Hamas's use of human shields

- The total loss of life on both sides and Israel's response (is it proportionate?)

- The extent of Hamas's tunnel system (you won't believe this)

While creating my own set of strength standards for advanced athletes, I also talk about relative vs absolute strength, why I don't use olympic lifts as a general standard, which lifts I do set standards for, and why I think strength standards need to be different for men and women. I also talk about why I don't think reaching these advanced strength standards actually matters in real life, the time I met Dan John, and why it's hard to keep making "Real Life" episodes for YouTube.

Mosab Hassan Youself, "The Son of Hamas," gives an unbelievable interview on The Israeli-Palestinian Conflict and exposes the truth about Hamas. Watch this whole interview from start to finish because Mosab explains in great detail how this conflict began, why it's happening, and what needs to be done for it to be resolved. A few of the questions Mosab answers are: - Can you explain what Hamas is, what it's goal is, and what it does for both the Palestinian people as well as Israel? - Does Hamas actually use it's citizens as human shields? If yes, can you explain what that practically means? Do they really conduct military operations from schools and hospitals and residential buildings? If yes, why? - Does Hamas have a "pay for slay" program, in which they pay Hamas terrorists for killing (or taking hostage) innocent Israelis? - Can you explain what those who have been brought up in the west fail to understand about the mindset and culture of those in Hamas? Why do so many in the west support it, and do you think they actually know/understand what they're supporting? - Is Israel illegally occupying Gaza and The West Bank? - Is Israel truly an apartheid state? - Is Israel trying to commit a genocide against Palestinians? - Does Israel have the right to exist? - What is the resolution to all of this? Is a two-state solution possible (or even desirable)? - What can us regular people do to improve the world and lead us toward peace?

In this episode of the Jordan Syatt Mini-Podcast, I discuss The Israeli Palestinian Conflict, the horrific events of October 7th, 2023, their immediate aftermath, and the history leading us to this heartbreaking event.  Being Jewish myself, and having lived in Israel and having family there, I go to pains to be as objective as possible while still speaking from the heart.  My goal is to help people become more educated on what's been going on in the region and to hopefully open peoples' hearts and minds to the idea that the targeting and killing of innocent civilians is never justified, regardless of who they are, where they are from, or what they believe.  I know this is a controversial topic but I cannot go on with my regularly scheduled programming as all of this unfolds.  I hope you listen with open hearts, and I hope you learn something from it that is helpful to you.  I know that speaking on this topic will unleash a lot of anger and hatred and unfortunately, 1-star reviews, so if you find this episode at all helpful or want to support me and the podcast, please leave a review on iTunes to help keep us afloat (huge thank you to everyone who has written one so far).   Stay safe.  I love you all.   - Jordan
