The mic is hot and the game is on. You're listening
to News for the Nation podcast by Aces Nation,
where we talk about nutrition, sports performance,
the journey of a student athlete, and more. I'm
Claire. I'm Zach. Time to level up. Welcome back
sports fans. Today we are going over the documentary
The Motivation Factor. I hope everyone gets a
chance to watch it after this episode. Claire
and I both enjoyed it very much and we're excited
to just have a conversation about our thoughts
on the documentary, kind of like what it meant
to society back then or what society was like
at that point and how How others in the documentary
describe the changes that have gone on and maybe
the art thoughts about them as well. So Claire,
I liked it. I mean, I know you did too off air.
You said that you did. Well, tell me just off
the top of your head, one thing that stood out
to you from the documentary, just anything that
pops in your head that that kind of stood out.
I think the main thing was. Not. knowing anything
and going into it, I thought it was just going
to be about like PE class and how it was just
required and they all participated. But I was
really surprised and interested in the types
of exercises they were doing and the fact that
it was more like kinesthetic, plyometric, and
maybe what we would consider more of like accessory
work. based. So I thought that was cool and that
was required in school and versus just going
to gym class and saying, OK, today we're going
to play football or today we're going to play
soccer. They're really working their body from
like a functional fitness perspective, which
was very interesting. Yeah, yeah, I think the
thing that stood out to me was like in most of
the videos they were showing, those dudes were
jacked. and like they were right that makes me
think based on all the other episodes we had
or we've had is what was the nutrition like provided
at that high school you know what were they able
to eat at that school and why was it why is it
so much different now yeah or i would even think
of like what were they eating at that time in
the 60s i would argue that most of what they
were eating was probably home -cooked meals agreed
they were probably drinking a lot of milk And
there wasn't a lot of fast food, super processed,
super high sugar, fat foods. I think they had
a pretty, a relatively nutrient dense diet and
a lot of home coach meals. Yeah, I would agree
with that. I think because the La Sierra High
School, when it was still around, is located
in Carmichael. If anyone doesn't know, I looked
it up. It's near Sacramento. So up there, I would
say by Probably surrounded by more farms than
typical like Southern California area would be
so Maybe they had to do with it too, but you're
right definitely different Societal happenings
I think life is a little slower. So yeah, you're
right. But yeah, everyone in that video was Super
fit and yeah, honestly for the most part the
people who had gone through it They still looked
fit Yeah, when they were interviewed. Yeah. And
they still did all of the things that they did
in high school. Every single, maybe not every
single, but some of them said every single morning
they still go through that routine and it just
helped them wake up, feel energized, start their
day off right. It's the stretching, the exercises
and running and that's what they start their
day off with. And I thought that was really cool
that however many years later, Um, they're still
incorporating it into their life Yeah, I think
one thing that was kind of sad for me to realize
at the beginning was that Uh, well, I actually
let me let me throw this out first I don't know
and maybe I missed this in the documentary because
I was watching it and there were things going
on around me at the time but uh Did coach laprati
start that before for the presidential fitness
thing? Did you get that vibe? I don't think so.
OK, anyways. All right. So let's let's just move
forward with that. Right. Like I think it's sad
that JFK did not get to experience the longevity
of that. Right. And yeah, his life was cut short.
And so he didn't get to see something impact
so many people positively based on an initiative
that he had. Yeah. And I think the country. Yeah.
I think the documentary did mention that because
of that, it was cut short in the sense of like
it wasn't initiated afterwards by anybody else.
And that's kind of sad to see too of like only
one person is finding this important enough to
encourage an initiative and try and get more
kids involved in movement outside of sport, but
also In the school day to where you're not sitting
for six plus hours at a desk Yeah conspiracy
theorists, you know look into that one for us,
please Yeah, I thought that was just Fascinating
and stuff. But alright, so there was that and
then for I We we know you and I because we talked
off air that the whole program set up by coach
the proddy at La Sierra which became like the
flagship place that JFK adopted as like hey,
this is the poster school for what the president's
physical fitness needs to look like He was a
former vet World War two. We looked it up Not
not sure what branch I don't think we got that
far as we got that information from where the
source we got but anyway, so when I watched it
I What it looked like to me was a bunch of military
formations, right and like and kids doing movements
that I've Seen similar things happen from Army
guidelines for physical fitness so it was it
was interesting to see that and I know that he
got most of his stuff from ancient Greeks and
I know that throughout the documentary they were
talking about all these different cultures from
before that time that had implemented certain
things. What was the country that they mentioned
where they had like 1 ,400 people out on a field
all doing synchronized movements at once? I don't
remember. Czech? Was it Czechoslovakia? Might
have been. Could have been. And it was an Eastern
European country, I think. So for that time being.
And it was before the 1900s, I believe, where
this was made a spectacle by that country as
well of being physically fit. So just interesting.
But one thing that I noticed from the videos
they were showing, almost all the videos, which
I can only think of the exception of one, it
was like the same footage being recycled. They
were only showing us like the bend to toe touch
and the arm opening, like the chest opener associated
with that massive group of people doing jumping
jacks. Yeah, I wonder if that's because most
of the movements they did, they did the same
thing every day. Like it was that was the program.
They just repeated the same movements in order
as essentially kind of like a warm up program.
I think that. Yeah, I think that gym footage
that we saw was their warm up. Yeah, I did remember
them saying in the documentary the I don't know
what they're called the little angle bars where
they were like walking over it with their hands,
you know, with their their legs dangling and
their hands were like waist height, you know.
Yeah, I did hear them say that that was mostly
a finisher, something they did at the end of
their workout. OK, the parallel bars. Yeah, yeah,
even though they did go up and down and stuff.
Yeah. Like that was something they did at the
end. That was mentioned in the documentary. You
know what? Oh, go ahead. No, no, not you. I was
gonna say, you know what I found very interesting
watching this is a lot of the things I've seen
in CrossFit were reflected. in that documentary
of like certain types of movements of when they
were talking about push -ups of the test of as
many push -ups as you can do was too easy because
they would be there counting to like a hundred
hundred fifty plus push -ups at a time they had
to make it harder so they started doing like
handstand push -ups or you know other variations
of push -ups that were more difficult to challenge
them more or the same thing with like the the
parallel bars. Same thing like you see that those
movements in CrossFit. And so it was just interesting
to kind of see those similarities that in the
CrossFit community, some of those movements are
known to be very, very difficult. They were walking
on their hands. So like things like that, that
you see in certain fitness modalities now that
were implemented then as well. I just thought
that was interesting. Yeah, and they did say
in the documentary about like one point they
were like well push -ups became too easy for
us So we started to do handstand push -ups because
they were to make them a little bit harder So
that that was one of the videos that was different
than the other ones I remember that quite a bit,
but let me pose this question to you and maybe
you don't have to answer Maybe it's just rhetorical,
but I just thought about this way you were mentioning
push -ups you know things like The push up and
like sit ups if you will um have I guess for
I don't know since the world war two or maybe
the world war one era been Pushed to america
as like the measure of your physical fitness
level, right? I mean, like some mile distance
time is also added in there. Some pull -up test
is in there. My question is, or my thought, I
guess is, is that a measure that has stood the
test of time because it really does give us that?
Or is that just something we had and we haven't
revamped that? you know is that just something
that they they had technology or understanding
of at the time and now we haven't revamped that
so is it like actually showing us that are we
keeping it because it's legit or are we keeping
it because we don't know how to formulate the
um like new physical Yeah, yeah, like the new
benchmark or are we not changing it because the
people who are in positions of power aren't ready
to give up that stronghold, right? Like is it
really, is it really real or is it cap, you know?
Yeah. Yeah, that's an interesting question. I
think it depends. Like I would say like as an
overall benchmark of strength and like fitness,
I wouldn't peg those two movements as overall
indicators of fitness. Especially too, I think
if you're looking at it from a holistic view
because men are obviously going to be stronger
in pushups than most women are unless you really,
really practice them a lot. But I mean, I still
think that there's going to be a discrepancy
there. So obviously, you have to account for
that. Yeah, I think it's different if you're
saying, like, this is a benchmark for push -ups
if we're testing push -ups. That's one thing
to say. Like, if you're fit in this movement
of push -ups, this is how many we expect you
to get, versus saying, if you can do this many
push -ups and sit -ups, you are a fit person.
I don't know that. I would argue that that doesn't
really correlate to mean that you're overall
a fit person. Yeah, it was just something I wanted
to throw out there as a thought. Ace's Nation

go! What are your thoughts on the shorts color
system? I mean, I guess for the voice, it makes
sense because They didn't have shirts on so they
couldn't have colored shirts. So makes sense
I would say that it probably I mean you you might
not necessarily have needed the shorts and obviously
for people listening they essentially broke up
the students into different groups based on like
ability level or fitness level, I guess you could
say and Depending on which level they were and
they were given a certain color shorts I think
it Makes sense. I think either way you probably
would have had to split them up because of ability
level and I do think it provides some sense of
goal setting and some sense of Shooting for like
that next short color or that next, you know,
grouping to be in, you want to work harder. So
you want to be with the blue shorts. You want
to be with the gold shorts because that means
that you improved from the last time versus just
staying where you are. So if you're a senior,
you don't want to be in the white shorts because
that means you made zero improvements from the
time you were a freshman to a senior. And that
sucks. So I mean, as somebody, obviously the
two of us were athletes. growing up. So I think
as somebody who is naturally more competitive,
I like the idea of like knowing who I'm chasing
and what I'm reaching for. Yeah, I agree. I think
if we were both in there, we definitely want
to be the highest level that we could be right
and keep working hard. One of the cool things,
I think, from the study and from the the part
about the colored shorts was the segment in the
documentary where a former participant in the
group ran some, it was a thesis, right? Or some
paper about the self -confidence level of people
in the white short group, which would be the
lowest one. And they found that they were just
as confident as people who were in the gold group.
So it's not like they had low self -esteem. because
they were at the lowest level. I mean, they were
still a part of the community, still working
hard. And so they saw improvements in themselves
and whatnot and kept their sense of self -confidence
at a good level. So I think that was a good thing.
I also think it was appropriate to separate people
by physical ability level, not just by their
grade. So that was pretty cool. Yeah, I think
that was great and I liked the study or the thesis
because like they mentioned, you would think
that by doing that and categorizing people differently,
that lower level or those people that have a
long way to go and a lot to work towards to improve,
they would have really low self -esteem and low
self -confidence and that wasn't the case. I
would argue that now it's a lot bigger issue
because we don't have as many programs like that.
Yeah, something they talked about in the documentary
was like the discrepancy between then and now,
and just a huge, maybe not even that huge, like
it's just another sign, like we need to be more
physically active as a nation because the fact
that PE is like, the participation of PE is like
optional or something, you know, these days.
Or even PE is optional. It's an extracurricular.
It's not part of the curriculum. Right, right.
I mean, like I understand the fact that You might
take a sports class, like if you're a basketball
player, you take basketball so you can get extra
practice time and finesse the system. That's
great. But for the general population, like a
program like this should be instituted. I think
it's crazy that they had statistics about. I'm
going to use the word delinquency, but like people
acting out, you know, or like. acting out in
school or acting out in the community or in society.
Like those numbers were reduced and they saw
kids were like more focused or energetic, you
know, or ready to learn. The fact that they had
like percentage statistics on that was just incredible
to me. Like, like who, where are you like, who,
who did you get this from? And that's still,
that's still pretty cool that. you know physical
activity obviously you and I know it's great
for mental health so that you can you know really
kind of boost that learning in the classroom
it's just another indication of why are we not
doing it and they said something like this in
the documentary where it was like we know it
but we're just not implementing it right but
why yeah but why right like everyone knows that
you should be physically active we're getting
more activity to stay healthy but yeah we're
not doing that they made a good reference to
or they just made a good point of, you know,
if somebody struggling in math class, for example,
instead of incorporating something else like
physical fitness or some sort of, you know, going
outside or something else that has been shown
to help with attention, energy. your ability
to just like remember things or cognition. So
things that can like really maybe help from a
learning standpoint, physical activity. They
put you in more math. Right. While maybe that
might be helpful or maybe it would be helpful
to have a little bit of one -on -one tutoring
or going to some office hours, if you're already
struggling with it in the first place, adding
more and more and more is probably going to make
you more stressed, make you less confident, make
you feel worse about yourself, feel more frustrated,
and you're sitting for longer, then you're going
to have less time to go outside. It just all
in all is like, It's kind of backwards. I mean,
it makes sense to maybe have a little bit more
math time, but why are we not incorporating something
that has been shown to be very beneficial from
a holistic point of view when maybe we know those
kids don't get it at home? Agreed. Another point
they made, which is along the same lines, it's
like, we all know that math and science is important,
right? For careers and learn. It's a part of
learning that's important. Well, we all know
physical health is important, you know, but yet
we cut that out. No one's out there cutting math
classes because, you know, we think it's important,
but not that important, you know. So the fact
that they're cutting physical, I mean, physical
education, sure. But I mean, really, it's like
it's like well -being enforcement or like enrichment
or something. You know, it's it's not just going
out and playing dodgeball or like rolling on
scooters or, you know, flapping the big parachute,
which was all fun back in my day, you know, but
but I think something structured, something that's
like gets people involved and can be made into
a fun thing or that's challenging. Yeah, it's
it's crucial, crucial to the longevity of the
people that, you know, are in our society. Yeah.
And that's important too. Like you said, like
math and science are important to your careers.
But I mean, the physical education or like the
gym class, I guess you could say, or the movement
class is important to your health. And if you're
not healthy, it doesn't really matter because
maybe you won't be able to go to school because
you're sick all the time. Or maybe you... you
know, there's other things that could negatively
impact your life that won't, that will maybe
not make math and science even important anymore
in that regard. You know what I'm saying? So
like we need to kind of look at it from more
of like a foundational perspective. And if we
don't have that foundation of health with movement
being a large piece of that, then the other stuff
in school isn't really going to matter either
because if you can't take care of yourself, and
you can't hold down a job or you can't get a
job or you can't make it to your job or whatever
the case might be, then what was the point of
those? Yeah, can't have a job if you're dead.
Take care of yourself. Come on. That was aggressive.
But seriously, you know, people need to take
care of themselves physically. And that's like
just something that gets thrown to the side,
right? Think they mentioned something about mental
health as well. Some people kept saying it Like
it was not a quote from somebody at the time
of the interview, which would have been afterwards
It was somebody during that time maybe even JFK
It may have been a quote from JFK was talking
about the mental health of the nation being driven
by the physical health Yeah, and that was important.
Yeah real real quickly you want to interject
The title, I think, of his article in Sports
Illustrated, JFK's, I believe it was titled Soft
American. I think it was. Yeah. That's so funny.
He had to tell it like it was. Yeah, that was
a term that people understood back then. Right.
Yes. That was that would definitely I don't want
to say trigger, but that would definitely like
catch people's attention, I think, at that point.
Right. Yeah. I mean, I think it. kind of alludes
to like, like we said, of that program being
more structured and having the discipline to
execute it. And I think you can tell that those
individuals developed discipline because they
continue to do it for 60 plus years after that.
That's, I mean, that's pretty disciplined if
you ask me. So, I mean, I think that, I mean,
going off the title of the article, I think maybe
that needed to be a little bit more of a reality
check of we need to be a little bit more disciplined
in this area of health and wellbeing because
if we're not adding it in a structured way, we
know people aren't going to do it. Right. Yeah.
I definitely like the way they had everything
set up from the program in itself. I mean, it
was structured as we could see. I'm sure I can
find this information out there haven't looked
to be fair, but I want to know The workout like
how was it structured in general, right? Yeah,
what does a warm -up consist of what? Like what
was their periodization for everything I saw
like some days they would run, you know, like
miles I saw like this little agility shuttle
they have with the hurdles I thought somebody
was gonna jump over the hurdles at one point,
but no one did And then oh sweet Is it a PDF?
No, okay. And then another thing is I was wondering
towards like the middle of it I was like man,
they just spend a lot of time doing like um aerobic
work like running miles and stuff but then i
saw like court shuttles or like court sprints
or something like that which i thought was cool
um i found the standards um what we got yeah
it didn't i mean it looks like they did a lot
of different things i think we were correct with
their warm -up was like more the cal uh calisthenics
and i think they always ran every single day
at least a mile but then some days they would
Also do like the shuttle runs or like the hurdle
runs or more of the like. Different type of short
sprints. OK, so the. We were also incorrect in
the beginning. There is no gold. It was blue
and navy blue was the top OK, but no, definitely
in the documentary they are wearing gold shorts
or yellow. Oh, OK, there were two substandards
within the blue level and they were categorized
with purple and gold. Wow, go Lakers. As for
the Navy blue trunks, you had to have earned
your gold trunks first, so Navy blue was above
gold. That makes sense. That makes me feel like.
Coach Leproty was in the Navy. Yeah, that makes
sense. That just makes me think that he was because
he made that the gold standard and there's a
lot of blue and gold Mm -hmm. Yeah, it's also
red and white. So maybe it's just America But
the Navy blue the ultimate athlete standards
Pull -ups 34 got it our dips 52 Okay handstand
push -ups 50 Wow alternating one -armed burpees
for 30 seconds 26 I saw those in the you saw
those in the video. Yeah, crazy. 300 yard shuttle
run. Forty seven point five seconds. Forty seven,
you said. Mm hmm. Wow. I'm just impressed that
they included that in there. Yeah, that's awesome.
Let's go. Rope climb 20 feet. Hands only sitting
start two trips. Well, 20 feet up and down two
times. Let's go. Agility run 17 seconds. Extension
press ups. You saw those, right? Yes, yes, hard.
Yeah, that that older gentleman could still do
one. Yeah, yeah, just one. Yeah, to 8 inches
100. What was that? It's to 8 like it has to
be 8 inches above the ground. Got it, got it.
Pegboard vertical five trips. Yep, handstand
45 seconds. Man lift and carry five miles. I
think they said that person had to be 10 pounds
heavier than you Yeah, or like 10 pounds within
your yeah. Yeah, wait, okay mile run 515 Mm -hmm
five mile jog finish. So you had to be able to
run five miles. I guess complete the opposite
obstacle course Swim one mile swim underwater
50 yards Swim any combination of strokes two
miles. Execute front hanging float with arms
and ankles tied. Six minutes. Stay afloat in
deep water in vertical position. Use of arms
and legs permitted within eight feet circles.
Two hours. I don't know what that means. But
basically, there were only 21 students between
1958 And 1983, who achieved Navy blue trunks.
Yeah, yeah. And I believe there's only one woman
who ever did that. Yes. And those standards were
different. Yeah. But still, I'm sure they were.
They were hard. They were rigorous, like the
ones you just read. Yeah. So 17 things that they
had to accomplish. And they mentioned if you
did XML in a year prior, you had to start all
over again if you didn't complete all of them.
So if you did 16, but you didn't get the last
one, you started zero the next year. No, that's
nuts. That's crazy. Yeah. Honestly, it kind of
sounds like something Navy SEALs would be subjected
to. Yeah. All the water stuff is definitely what
it sounds like. Yeah. But yeah, very hard. But
that's why I say a lot of those things, I'm like,
Wow, that really reminds me of CrossFit because
like the burpees, the handstand push -ups, pull
-ups, push -ups, obstacle courses, carrying odd
objects, just doing like strange things that
you wouldn't necessarily train for if you just
wanted to be strong or look a certain way. They
were obviously trained and training just to be
able to be fit humans and It sounds like honestly
to maybe just like survivability, you know, if
you have if one of the a couple of the tests
are to hold your breath or to, you know, stand
or water for a certain amount of time, that's
like survival skills versus let's learn how to
be strong and fit. Yeah, to be fair, CrossFit
was started by ex -military people. Probably.
Yeah, I think so. But it's definitely a lot of
like military vibes and feels for. Yeah. And
this obviously the other one because of who created
it. But to me, it just reminds me of like sign
of the times back in those days, right, where
they were, gosh, 20 years off of World War Two.
and in the Cold War, and everyone was probably
like, hey, we need to make sure that we stay
fit, keeping soldiers fit, because I think ground
warfare was still the main warfare, which actually,
to be honest, I think it still is the main warfare.
But just making sure that people were up to the
standard that had won them, you know, previous
wars. So I think that's a lot of the motivation.
behind some of those things that they did because
Coach Leprady may have done them when he was
in what we assume was the Navy SEALs. We don't
know. It's just based on the information we have,
we're just drawing that conclusion. So, yeah,
I think there's so many interesting military
ties to like what we're talking about with these
fitness standards. And just to be generally.
Nothing specific right and not a ton of stuff,
you know over body weight Which I don't think
anything you mentioned was over body weight,
right? Which is kind of the the mindset of training
and just to be off of the ancient Greek Philosophy
of the whole human. I think that's what it was
the whole human thing just to be you know, well
-rounded, able to do a lot of different things.
And I guess that explains like being fit. Yeah.
I think the only thing that would be over body
weight is the five mile carry, but everything
else, your body weight and someone else's. Right.
But even that just, just reads rock march to
me, you know? Yes. So. Yeah. Yeah. Very interesting.
But I think all in all, One thing to take away
from that is just the importance of physical
activity and not just sports. Like yes, sports
are important, but you know, training these other
areas of just like overall fitness, plyometrics.
They did a lot or the more recent programs. I
think it was in Prescott. Elementary slash middle
school. It was not high school. It was younger
but of like teaching kids how to like jump and
land and these calisthenics and having just like
an organized physical activity center throughout
the day so that kids aren't sitting all day and
obviously they did mention to it it obviously
depends on the coaches and the teachers that
you have it's not not any any gym coach or any
gym teacher or coach off the street could run
a program like that successfully but i think
it's important to maybe you know. invest time
in that and invest in incorporating these programs
into school and then invest in either like training
or finding teachers and coaches that are passionate
about it and want to implement it and they want
and want it to succeed and will execute it in
the way that is going to help these kids learn
how to love to be healthy again. Agreed. I think
that's one of the main things is just to love
being healthy and like enjoying your life also
the fact of You're gonna gain community from
that and that's important to incorporate a lot
of different people from various backgrounds
into Just a community that's about Being physically
fit or being healthy. Let's just say being healthy.
It's not about anything else, right? It's not
about like In essence, it's not about beating
you. It's not about like, you know, winning against
another thing. It's just about you yourself being
healthy around other people who are also trying
to be healthy. Right. And so having some self
-confidence and then having building some like
social community and skills in the process. So
I liked it. I thought it was a good documentary.
I definitely think people should, you know, Go
watch it. Give it a listen. See, see the things
that everyone was doing back then. Yeah. I also
think that it was great that they finally opened
it up to the girls. Yes. You know, I'm, I'm,
I'm sure their focus was to start in one area,
which, you know, back then I don't think it was
as inclusive as things are now, but I think it
was great. I also wonder because they they did
say like it wasn't that girls didn't have access
to gym class but it was it was different in that
theirs was more sports based but I do wonder
if that like military component comes in of like
that training had more of the purpose of like
if there's another war and we these kids get
drafted then we want to make sure that they're
prepared to stay alive whereas at that time women
didn't need to worry about that. So I wonder
if that played a role in that as well. Yeah,
I think it could have, you know, but man, I was
I really hope that they would think about the
last time that happened and women had to go had
to go do like these manual labor jobs. Right.
And then that should just be a thing that we
open up to everybody. Right. Because if it happens
for the men who get drafted, well, you're going
to have the same situation where the the women
who didn't get drafted are going to have to do
all of the normal, you know, operations, you
know, that happened. So yeah, but yeah, you're
right. They did have that model for girls at
the time that was like play sports to get fit,
not get fit and then play sports. Right. Which
they talked they talked about was not the focus
of the boys in that program, which I think that's
great, too, because We see that model a lot with
youth sports as well, where kids are just playing
sports, overuse, injuries happen, right? And
they're not just, they're not well -rounded with
their training. So yeah. Yeah. So a good lesson
of, of like holistically, yes, sports are important,
but just holistic movement of, you know, being
fast, being strong, being agile, being powerful,
having all of those, being able to change direction
quickly and efficiently, all those things that
you, Dak, talk about a lot are important. And
it's not only important for kids that play sports,
but it's important for everybody just to be healthy,
avoid injury. or longevity. And then also just
looking at the other positive benefits of doing
better in school, having more energy, having
more focus, maybe just having like a more positive
and a better outlook on life. So that correlates
to like less trouble or getting into getting
into less trouble or just being a better human.
So a lot of positives coming out of that and
just was very interesting. So I think that Hopefully
more people watch it and hopefully that becomes
more of a priority for schools in the near future.
Yeah, movement is medicine people, not just from
a like joints and muscles perspective, but also
for your mental health. So make sure you're moving,
you know, move as much as you can, even if it's
just 15 minutes a day, you know, just get out
and move, go take a walk outside somewhere, you
know, stop being inside and sitting the whole
time. One thing I think was ironic is I sat during
that entire documentary and I felt so bad about
it. Just at the halfway point, I was like, this
is not good. This is not what they want. But
definitely everyone go check out the documentary.
It was great. The motivation factor. You can
find it on YouTube. Amazon Prime is where I watched
it. Apple TV. Yeah. Rent it for $2 .99 in standard
definition like I did. Yeah, so that was awesome.
