Tywin Kalandyk: Thank you.

41
00:05:13.097 --> 00:05:29.379
Avik Chakraborty: So diamond like your journey has been incredibly inspiring. So from overcoming the early life challenges to excelling in sports and then transitioning into fitness. So how did your experiences shaped your approach to the health and fitness.

42
00:05:30.740 --> 00:05:49.649
Tywin Kalandyk: Yeah, absolutely. And again, thank you for having me on. I think you know, we all undergo certain circumstances and and scenarios growing up to kind of mold us inform us to to become who we are. They just look different. So for me it was being born a drug and alcohol addicted baby thrown

43
00:05:49.680 --> 00:05:51.819
Tywin Kalandyk: straight into foster care.

44
00:05:52.162 --> 00:06:09.759
Tywin Kalandyk: And it was kind of trials and tribulations and ups and downs from the get go but I'm grateful for that, because that really taught me early on what life was like. And I think anybody that's listening to this understands life's a series of ups and downs and twirls and twists.

45
00:06:09.950 --> 00:06:32.975
Tywin Kalandyk: And it's how you handle those things that are really gonna dictate. The direction your life goes and your fitness journey is no different for most people. It's a it's a whirlwind of ups and downs and whirlwinds of figuring things out. But then, when you figure it out. And when you get an alignment the whole thing actually becomes really, really,

46
00:06:33.450 --> 00:06:36.090
Tywin Kalandyk: really simple to actually do believe it or not.

47
00:06:37.190 --> 00:06:46.574
Avik Chakraborty: Wow! That's that's real lovely. And so you coach men on how to go from fat to fit in 90 days without relying on fat diet. So

48
00:06:47.050 --> 00:06:48.950
Avik Chakraborty: what's the secret to

49
00:06:49.510 --> 00:06:52.750
Avik Chakraborty: creating such effective and sustainable transformations.

50
00:06:53.490 --> 00:06:57.359
Tywin Kalandyk: Yeah, sure. I think the very 1st step is getting uncomfortable.

51
00:06:57.719 --> 00:07:05.289
Tywin Kalandyk: Because when you're in a a state of being comfortable, people don't want to make the change needed, you know, cause it's

52
00:07:05.640 --> 00:07:18.479
Tywin Kalandyk: it feels good when you're comfortable. It's it's it's a good place to be so. 1st step is getting uncomfortable, and I do that just by even telling people you know, by saying fat to fit, I might say fat for a reason. I don't use overweight.

53
00:07:18.610 --> 00:07:23.220
Tywin Kalandyk: I don't use like these soft words, because words have meaning

54
00:07:23.380 --> 00:07:41.360
Tywin Kalandyk: and words have a way of moving us. So when you, when you even just hearing the word fat. It stinks. It's even hard sometimes when you 1st start saying the word fat, because you say well, I don't want to be rude, or I don't want to judge people or no, it's not about that. I'm not judging someone's character

55
00:07:42.000 --> 00:07:45.050
Tywin Kalandyk: in all actuality. I'm just stating the truth.

56
00:07:45.230 --> 00:07:49.930
Tywin Kalandyk: but a lot of times we don't like hearing the truth. So the very 1st part is just

57
00:07:50.070 --> 00:07:55.709
Tywin Kalandyk: getting in a state of being uncomfortable. So you're willing to do the things needed.

58
00:07:55.710 --> 00:07:56.030
Avik Chakraborty: Yeah.

59
00:07:56.030 --> 00:08:05.030
Tywin Kalandyk: To see the changes, because it's not like the things needed are hard. It's just most people are very comfortable doing what they've been doing?

60
00:08:05.496 --> 00:08:08.870
Tywin Kalandyk: So I think that's the 1st step is getting them uncomfortable.

61
00:08:08.940 --> 00:08:13.939
Tywin Kalandyk: And then I I think the second step that happens pretty much right after that

62
00:08:14.508 --> 00:08:16.299
Tywin Kalandyk: is building the belief.

63
00:08:16.590 --> 00:08:18.580
Tywin Kalandyk: building the belief in yourself.

64
00:08:19.020 --> 00:08:26.270
Tywin Kalandyk: building the belief that you can get the results. And starting start immediately rewriting your story.

65
00:08:26.280 --> 00:08:29.400
Tywin Kalandyk: because we all have a story that we tell ourselves.

66
00:08:29.410 --> 00:08:31.080
Tywin Kalandyk: and unfortunately.

67
00:08:31.350 --> 00:08:33.370
Tywin Kalandyk: usually that story is

68
00:08:33.659 --> 00:08:37.799
Tywin Kalandyk: wrong. Usually that story is accumulation of

69
00:08:37.960 --> 00:08:47.650
Tywin Kalandyk: what your parents told you, growing up what your teachers told you, growing up all of these outside influences, and you just make them your own.

70
00:08:48.030 --> 00:08:52.609
Tywin Kalandyk: So it's time to kind of rewrite that. So those are probably the 1st 2 steps, and

71
00:08:52.800 --> 00:08:55.309
Tywin Kalandyk: give them the the biggest steps you need to take.

72
00:08:55.960 --> 00:08:57.170
Avik Chakraborty: Lovely, lovely.

73
00:08:57.350 --> 00:09:02.590
Avik Chakraborty: So many people struggle with finding those motivation to maintain a fitness, routine.

74
00:09:02.920 --> 00:09:03.760
Tywin Kalandyk: Beautiful.

75
00:09:04.086 --> 00:09:08.979
Avik Chakraborty: How do you help your clients, I mean, stay committed and motivated throughout their journey.

76
00:09:10.170 --> 00:09:17.540
Tywin Kalandyk: Yeah, absolutely. Great question. And that is something that's very common is, people have a hard time staying motivated. It's probably one of the

77
00:09:17.760 --> 00:09:21.540
Tywin Kalandyk: top. 5 questions I hear is, how do I stay motivated? Well.

78
00:09:21.560 --> 00:09:22.799
Tywin Kalandyk: here's the thing.

79
00:09:23.450 --> 00:09:27.589
Tywin Kalandyk: The reason you're not motivated is because you're not going for what you really want.

80
00:09:28.330 --> 00:09:40.780
Tywin Kalandyk: And when I say that a lot of times I'm like, Well, what are you talking about? I'm like, well, you you told me you wanted to lose 50 pounds, and that's what you're going for. But that's not what you really want. That's what you think you want.

81
00:09:40.810 --> 00:09:46.109
Tywin Kalandyk: Because if that was what you really wanted. I've never had a person lose the weight

82
00:09:46.180 --> 00:09:56.359
Tywin Kalandyk: and then walk around with a scale and stand on it in front of people and say, Hey, look how much weight I lost, and and then do it to the next person. Step on the scale and look how much weight I lost. It's not about the weight.

83
00:09:56.410 --> 00:10:11.130
Tywin Kalandyk: Maybe it's the confidence you wanted. Maybe you wanted to feel more. Affection from your spouse. Maybe you want people to respect you more. It wasn't the actual weight that you were going for....
