26:00how we're like developing those daily how we're like developing those daily habits and then they they do it without habits and then they they do it without habits and then they they do it without us even asking them now us even asking them now us even asking them now yeah no it's been yeah no it's been yeah no it's been wild transformation even even in my body wild transformation even even in my body wild transformation even even in my body in the in the time that we've had this in the in the time that we've had this in the in the time that we've had this um I noticed some remarkable just the way I feel yeah just the way I feel yeah and Okay so and Okay so and Okay so the plunge got here you were open to it the plunge got here you were open to it the plunge got here you were open to it because you already experienced it it's because you already experienced it it's because you already experienced it it's still a little resistant I would say still a little resistant I would say still a little resistant I would say having it at home being like are we having it at home being like are we having it at home being like are we gonna use this are we not going to use gonna use this are we not going to use gonna use this are we not going to use this yeah absolutely yeah I found like this yeah absolutely yeah I found like this yeah absolutely yeah I found like you you were like the reason why I you you were like the reason why I you you were like the reason why I wanted to have you on the podcast is wanted to have you on the podcast is wanted to have you on the podcast is because you were like my biggest because you were like my biggest because you were like my biggest you're not my biggest critic per se but you're not my biggest critic per se but you're not my biggest critic per se but when you're very resistant to new ideas when you're very resistant to new ideas when you're very resistant to new ideas well everyone has that treadmill or that well everyone has that treadmill or that well everyone has that treadmill or that exercise bike or whatever that doesn't
