Alright. What's up guys, Tanner Chidester here. In this video I'm actually gonna go
over a few things, about 4 of them, so I'm gonna leave time codes down below so for those
of you who just want to skip to the parts you want, you can. Actually I have notes.
What I'm gonna be doing is talking about prep, moving to Texas, I also have a little Q&A
session, there's only 3 or 4 of them and then I also just want to address stuff people have
been asking me.
So to start, the update on prep, everything's good, I'm a little bit behind, I enjoyed myself,
I had an extra day, I shouldn't have while I was in Texas. And for those of you who don't
know, I went back for two weeks for business/personal, see my family for my birthday, ate a little
more than I should, but at this point, I really don't care, it shouldn't be a big deal, just
starve calories a little bit more and get back on track. I'm stepping on stage regardless,
I told you guys I would, and I'm not backing out of that. Even if I'll look like crap,
I'm gonna be hopping on stage.
So as far as what I wanted to address, it's kinda what people had been asking for. And
so I wanna kinda address this in a few ways. This is gonna be as honest as I can possibly
make it, it's about my life, what I think, my goals and hopefully, you guys will take
it in the right way, one thing I've learned with doing videos is a lot of times when you
say something, someone�s gonna bring up like this little minute point about everything
you say to like kinda counter you and that's fine. I'm not gonna address every single point
because it just turns this video into 30 minutes when it could be 5 or 8 minutes, because you're
gonna have to say, "Well, this is what I mean." "But don't take it this, way, but this is
what I mean, but don't take it this way..." and I'm just gonna save it because for those
of you who actually follow me, I think you'll know where I'm coming from. What I want to
get at guys is for those of you who don't know my story, when I was in high school,
all I ever wanted to do is play college football. I realized that dream when I got to play divisional
football at BYU. I transferred around, I got hurt so bad that even if I wanted to play
football anymore, I couldn't. Okay, I've had 3 surgeries on my shoulder, you can't tell
it because it's microscopic so there used to be a huge line that would go down this
shoulder and now it's not, so I've had 3 a piece. Okay, after that ended, I was doing
petroleum engineering and I hated it. I realized I wasn't gonna be happy. I had a 3.8 GPA,
I got into the number 2 engineering school in the country Texas A&M, so for those of
you who think all meat heads are dumbasses and stuff like that, you know, you can leave
the page because that's just not the case. I was actually studying to be a petroleum
engineer and in Texas you can make easily your first job a hundred grand plus. So, you're
set. You're good for life, right? You get your secure job, you're set.
What I realized was football had always been a passion of mine and it's what I wanted to
do and once that was gone, I needed to find something else. I literally went to my parent's
I was like, "If this is all life is, I don't want to be here." I literally was like, "I
don't care if I pass away tomorrow because this is not exciting. I have no purpose."
Going to 9 to 5 to me is boring and unfulfilling. And that might not be politically correct
but it's fine, like my sister does a 9 to 5 and my dad does a 9 to 5, everyone in my
family is a 9 to 5. In my immediate family.
With that said, I want to build a business. I've been trying to build a business and along
the way there's been a lot of stumbling blocks and road blocks because building a real business
and just putting a link on your Instagram is completely different. Having a link to
something to buy is not a business. Having a business is having a bomb website, bomb
sales pages, marketing videos, customer service, daily e-mails, all kinds of stuff guys. It's
very complicated. You're talking tens of thou... even if you have an online business like me
and it's not a physical product. Like it's digital product that's sending an email, it
can be thousands and thousands of thousands of dollars. A professional website at the
minimum, 5K. A professional video for a good one, at the minimum, 15 to 2K. Making the
products alone, and having all the subscription sites, a sales funnel which most of you don't
know what that is, but it's kind of like, step by step, so you when you see a page,
it goes to this, you see this, then upsell you, whatever, that's a subscription service,
kind of a like, a cellphone service, could be a hundred plus a month, email service,
is a hundred something plus a month, all that stuff, guys, cost tons of money. Tons and
tons of money. To have a business, it's awesome, but I don't think people understand the expense.
I gave up having an awesome 20 year old mess around, F- girls all the time, sick cars,
get in the house, I've had all that. But I gave it up so I can build something.
All the money I make goes right to my business. I have the same car that I got when I got
when I was 16. I shouldn't say the same car, I had the car, someone stole it and totaled
it, and then the replacement car I got that they gave me - basically, so I wanted to send
the kid to jail is what I have.
I just turned 25 I didn't start this till I was really about 22 and a half, almost 23.
So I haven't been doing this very long. And there's a lot of stuff I've had to learn get
a plan and play. This video's gonna take I think longer than I want because there's the
lot's of stuff falling on my chest.
It takes time and money. You know, a lot of people, they all "I want this, and this."
But they don't take the actions necessary, or their mouth doesn't match where what they
say, "Hey, I want to build a business but I want to live in LA." Well, how the hell
you're gonna build a business and put every last dollar into it, if you're going to LA
and spend the tons of money. Or, "I want to do this and that." "What have you done? Have
you reached any manufacturing companies, have you reached a website designer? Have you done
a logo? Have you..." "No," "Right."
All this cost money. Just creating a freakin' logo is like 500 bucks. Getting to the point,
I'm trying to build a business. Every last dollar I make is going into the business.
The only thing that I pay for, besides food and living expenses and like any, like car
expenses stuff like that is my business. Every freakin' last dollar. And I'll have an occasional
date here and there with a girl to make sure- I still like girls, I might actually get married
one day. I mean at this point, I have a zero love life because I don't put enough time
into it, so occasionally I do go on a date but besides that, I do not spend- I showed
you I don't carry money, I don't do weed, I don't do - I don't spend money on the drugs
or alcohol, anything like that. I won't go buy nice clothes, I mean guys, literally,
if you watch some of my videos or pictures, I rotate the same clothes. I literally have
my photographer saying like, "Dude, wear some different clothes, please." It's not that
I can't. I don't want to because I'm like, "Bro, I got to pay for this website, It's
$5,000. I got to pay for this. I gotta..." The clothes that are coming guys, that will
be here in two months or less it depends on the samples because it takes a month to ship
from China. I'm gonna have to guesstimate or judge if I need a sample 'cause if I don't,
there goes 2 grand, right? I just wasted 2 grand. It cost tons of money guys to build
a business. You either build a business by doing a side hustle and going slowly or doing
whatever you can to get as much money as possible or you have someone else to give you money.
My options are, 1. Someone else give me the money with no interest or investment, which
is never gonna happen, 'cause I wasn't raised that way, and I would never go ask one for
a freakin' handout. Let's take that out of the picture. 2, is an investor. If I got an
investor, I guess, I think 30 - 40% of my company. I don't need that. I need tons of
money, but I don't need that. I talking like maybe 100K, I don't need freakin' millions
like, you give us- if you start a supplement company- a met a guy who owns certain supplements,
huge company you probably seen in the stores, I'm not going to throw out numbers but he
can get a huge amount from investors. Huge amount. Something that you're not gonna raise
by yourself and you need that so that's a different story. But for what I'm trying to
do, it's like, I don't want to give up control of my company just so things speed up quickly,
like a year faster, two years faster, whatever, 'cause I'm thinking long term. I�m gonna
be in this game a long time, right? And everyone's really thinking in short terms.
With that out of the way, the whole point of this video is I'm tired of people asking
for free stuff. And the reason I say I'm very willing to help people, I want to help people
the goal is to help people, at the end of the day, let's be very real, the goal of business
is to make money. I have to have a living too and so I need to make money. I'm all about
doing free stuff, I have a YouTube channel, I do Instagram, I do Facebook. I do Snapchat.
I do Twitter. I literally DM people all the time. I have people DM'ing me. This and this
and this and this and I answer almost all the time, but you come to me and you're like,
"Hey, can I have a customized plan?" I have a full freakin' schedule on top of the side
hustle I got to do. You're coming to me asking for free stuff, I just take it so disrespectfully.
I'm so tired of it because I give, give, give and that's fine, I get that's part of it and
you know, Gary Vaynerchuk's one of the guys I look up to Andy Frissela is one of the guys
I look up to for first foremost. At the end of the day, I need to make money to fund my
business. I need thousands of dollars. And so, when people come to me and I'm offering
literally - literally, let's put this for a second, I'm offering to change your life,
for $69 to $179 depending on what you pick. I have a program at $69 that basically if
you just want to know how to get lean and stay shredded, the rest of your life. All
you have to do is read it. Read it. It's literally, 1,2,3,4. And if you don't get it, ask my clients,
ask people who buy that. $69 bucks they get my freakin' personal cell number. Personal
cell number. In fact, on my freakin' Instagram, is my personal cell number. I shouldn't say
personal, it's my business cell phone. Whatever, same thing you get in contact with me. I'm
the only person really in this company. Every employee I have hired, in less than a day,
hasn't produced and they go, because I realized that until I'm at a certain level where I
have a way I compensate people better or find better workers, I'm just getting people who
don�t care that much or who are just trying to make a quick buck.
So I'm doing everything myself, customer service, plans, websites, logos everything. It's all
me. You come to me and you say, "Hey, give me a free plan." That pisses me off is because
if I'm hungry and I go to Starbucks and I say, "Hey man, I don't have money, can I get
this for free?" They'll say, "F- you." And that's what I'm starting get to, and I try
to do what the guys I look up say. Gary Vaynerchuk, I really like what he does. He's always talking
about give, give, give, give, give. So you can ask me any stuff. But he is now in a different
position. I don't know what he would have said then. And he might have said the same
thing. But all I know is I'm in a startup. That dude is a multi-millionaire now. And
he's in a different spot where it doesn't really matter, all the people asking for free
stuff because he doesn't need them anymore. And he's even said that, I mean, he doesn't
need them. At this point, I almost wanna say, I do need you. I do need your help to build
this business. That's how I make my money. When you come to me and you say, "Man, I want
to do - I'll do anything to change. Anything." But you won't even freakin' pay $69 bucks?
Get that shit outta here. Are you freakin' kidding me. I'm not just telling you what
to do. I don't send you that bullshit custom plan or bullshit custom plan where coaches
go, "Have a cup of brown rice and 3 veggies," that they send to every damn athlete and say
they're one of the top coaches. I had a coach like that. He's supposed to be one of the
top coaches in the industry and all he sent me was some freakin' 1600 calorie meal plan.
Oh wow. But you can starve me to death. Congrats. That's so hard to do.
The best coaches can teach you how to eat the most food, the least amount of exercise
and get peeled. That's the goal. Least amount of work for the most results. That's the goal
in any business. Anything in life. You want to work hard, but if you can get it easier,
why are you gonna put an extra time and effort? Does that make any sense? No. But I'm literally
offering people to change their life forever literally, by the end of my plans, you don't
have to have me as a coach anymore. I'm not a coach who likes, wants to you keep you year
round. By the end of the freakin' plan, you don't ever have to have me as a coach anymore
but you say, "Oh, I don't want to pay $69 bucks, I don't want to pay $400 bucks." I'm
tired of hearing that. Honestly, I'm literally getting to the point if someone DM's me for
one more free thing, I'm blocking people. I'm tired of it. I'm not even at that point
yet. I can't even imagine what these guys like Gary Vaynerchuk, Andy Frisella, all these
top CEOs gets is literally mind boggling to me. And I know, I know I should ignore it,
I get that, but I'm just at a point now on my business, I'm frustrated guys, and I'm
tired of seeing it. If you don't want to pay for stuff, go somewhere else. Go get some
free crap that's gonna do a good job. Or you're not really gonna learn anything. And just
keep doing it. Just keep doing it year in, year out, get free crap and never improve.
You know, people I see crying about Tai Lopez's, $1000 social media approach. Shut up. The
dude has to make a living. And I don't care how many cars he has. He deserves those cars.
He deserves them. He's worked hard for them. I have no problem with him making money from
me. He's giving you an incredible service and those courses guys are invaluable. You'll
learn more in those courses than you'll learn with all the free crap all on Google. You
get what you pay for. That is very true in life. You get what you pay for. Some things
you don't need, you don't need a hundred dollar shirt from Lululemon. But if you want to make
money, why wouldn't you invest in assets. That's what rich people do. They don't buy
stuff. They invest in assets. The little money I do have, I invested it in myself. In myself,
over and over, until eventually, I get this, the kind of money that I'm talking about or
hopefully get and then I can start buying some nice toys. You know, maybe down the road.
But I've never been a material guy. I have wanted to help people and get tons of money
so I can provide for my family. And it's like a slap in face when I put in all this effort
and give free stuff and the same people who just - they're just take, take, take, take,
take, take. And you're gonna literally DM me and think I'm an asshole or a jerk because
I don't give you a free meal plan? F- you. Dude. Get off my page. I'm so tired of that
crap. And this is why this video is real. Because you don't understand, I'm doing real
stuff I hate right now, side hustle wise, that I'm embarrassed even to tell people so
I can keep my thing going.
I'm making good money from my business I guess you could say, but it would put me in a very,
very tight situation where it's not comfortable. And so I do side hustle to make sure that
I'm helping, trying to build cash, well, as fast as possible and get this thing off the
ground.
I'm putting hours and hours a week, right, to get this thing going and then people come
to me with that crap.
And a lot of you guys you're gonna go see this other fitness guys, you go, well how's
he making so much money. How does he have this nice car whatever. The minority, got
your eyes like Bradley Martyn and Steve Cook, well guys for- at that level, the level we're
trying to attain or I'm trying to get to, Kinobody, Greg O'Gallagher and I've even met
guys on Greg's team. He's at a level where he's doing what he says he's doing. You guys
need to understand a lot of the fitness industry is 'gay-for-pay'. And 'gay for pay' - what
does 'gay for pay' means? I means guys are on the outside showing, "Oh, I model, I do
this and that," and behind closed doors, they're doing what's called 'gay for pay' which is
people are paying them to do. Have shows, sexual stuff, in person, clothing, whatever.
That's the truth and I don't want to make my money that way. I don't. Literally, I'll
have someone offer me more money for that and then they do some actually to better their
life, which is a whole other conversation.
The reason I bring this up is I'm just tired of it. If you want free stuff, go on my YouTube
channel. Type in what you're looking for. I'll have people that ask me stuff that I've
gone over my YouTube channel hundreds of times. I have videos on it. I'm trying to get full-time
so I can improve that stuff. Instagram's big. I have a 50,000 subscription on there, followers,
whatever. Facebook, 68. Twitter I just started, it's like, 5. YouTube's like a thousand. And
I need to continue to do that. I already have stuff I'm trying to sell and then people come
to me for free stuff and I'm already putting out all these free content, and I'm doing
stuff I hate, so I can do this full-time, and then they cry about it? Like, dude, really?
I have to build a business, guys, and if I can't get enough money, or I can't get an
investor, I don't want to have an investor, this is how it has to be done. It's almost
like a slap on my face saying, "Oh, I love your content, I support you, but I don't want
to help you." And I'm trying to build my followings and get them big, so it's relevant, 'cause
until then, nobody knows who I am, so I need money so people know who I am so I can run
Facebook ads, like, or on YouTube ads, I can run people to my pages, spend money on good
copywrite. Good sales pages. Good funnels so when someone sees my page for the first
time, it converts instead of me having to only rely on what's called hot traffic, or
warm traffic, people who know me. I want someone who's never seen me before to see a video
of mine. Boom, want to buy something.
That's the goal. It's to help people, but it's also the goal is to make money, guys.
That's the truth, to make money, I have a business, I need to make money.
That was a little bit of a rant, on top of that like, social media, I'm trying to build
those because even like YouTube, well I'm on YouTube, it's pathetic. It's a thousand
subscribers. And half of my likes or views are probably from my mom. You know what I
mean? Like, let's keep this 100% real. And so, when someone comes to me after all the
free stuff I put out, and then like, "Oh man, can you give me a full plan for free?" Like,
"What the hell? No. Why would I give that to you for free?" There's a balance like,
I want to help people, but goddamn like, "Are you gonna pay for anything?" I don't go to
you and ask for free stuff, I don't go to you and say, "Hey man, you hook me up?" I
don't go get free food because I'm hungry or I'm homeless. They don't care. It getting
to that point it's just ridiculous. I should ignore it, but I'm just kinda fed up at this
point. The moral of the story is, if you want good stuff, pay for it. Or if you want to
support me, pay for it.
If you want free stuff, that's great, I put out a ton of free stuff, but don't come to
me with a 21 question list. Come to me with like, "Hey bro, where can I go to find this?"
Or, "Do you have a suggestion for that?" "Sure." But don't start going, "Hey, this is my body
weight, this is my body fat. This is what I eat. This is what... What do you think?"
No. Not doing it anymore. I won't even respond. Won't even respond. I respond to everyone.
Not responding to those anymore.
So with that said, and this movie's been dragging along a lot longer than I want it to. I had
the LA deal that I have been talking about, that thing, it was a total scam. I know better.
But it gets your hope up, it was a- to train high end clientele, there was gonna be tons
of money, it would basically just put all the side hustle, away, so of course you get
your hopes up when it's too good to be true, it always is.
As far as my move to Texas, the reason that is happening now is some of the entrepreneurs
I work with in Utah who had their own businesses do what what was called summer sales. Summer
sales they will go out, they sell some kind type of security, some guys will do pest control,
whatever, you hate your life, you do it, can make anywhere depending on how good you are,
how dedicated you are from 30 to 200K. It starts in April, so I'm gonna be out in Houston
for about 3 or 4 months doing that. And then my thing is once that's done, I'm just gonna
stay because then I can stop all the side hustle. I won't have to do it anymore 'cause
that will be enough. So that is the update on that.
Hopefully that covers everything. I didn't mean to go so long, the moral of the story
is, guys, if you really want to support me, you should be in a position to understand.
It's not cool to just keep asking for free crap. I can give out free crap. And I'm gonna
keep giving out free crap and in fact, right now, I'm paying for something to give out
more free crap. I'm only giving out Lululemon quality shirts that I could sell for a hundred
for maybe $40 or less. What else do you want? I can't imagine how much worse it's gonna
get but when you're in the beginning, every dollar counts. Every last dollar I get goes
into the business.
As far as prep goes, we're gonna be 7 weeks out, right now. This is week 7. Truth and
the rant, there's that. Move to Texas. I'm explaining that. That's the reason I've always
wanted to go back to Texas this is gonna be perfect because sometimes, you don't know
where you're gonna go. They just happen to go to Houston, gonna go back there, kill myself,
work my ass off and by the end of its day, that's it.
This next thing is gonna be Q&A's. And then I'm gonna end the video. So, the Q & A's I
got three questions. Number 1 is, people who inspire me. Fitness world, professionally
and personally. In the fitness world, I'm gonna say, Christian Guzman. The reason I
say Christian Guzman is because, I mean, he's built something that he has influence. That's
what I'm after. It's influence. It's not money, it's not fame, it's influence. People know
who he is. When you say, Alphalete, everyone thinks of Christian. When I'm in Utah in gyms,
I see little kids with Alphalete shirts. Wherever I go, I see Alphalete, Alphalete, Alphalete.
All he does is clothes really. I mean he has a little personal coaching but his big thing
is clothes. And he has huge influence in the industry. And everyone I've talked to who
knows him says, he's down to earth. Those other guys I've talked about who also have
the you know, followings like him and it's mixed opinions. And I don't judge on that.
I mean, I'm sure people who haven't met me have a mixed opinion or bad taste in the mouth,
which is just fine, that's pretty normal, but as far as like people who have actually
met him in person, interact with him in a daily basis or frequently, that's the gist
I've gotten is that he is a good guy. For as professionally, I got about four guys.
Two guys I met in LA. One's name is Chris Stokes. He's the owner of Dollar Beard Club.
He probably won't remember me, the reason I look up to him is basically because he was
like broke, 37 years old, and he started from nothing. Pretty much long story short, and
now I think his company gross is like 10 million this year, something in the first year, something
crazy like that. You can look it up online. That's the kind of hustle I look after. That's
the kind of stuff I aspire to be like. I mean, the guy literally was broke and within years
making big. That's the type.
Chris Walker's another one. He actually works with Gregg O'Gallagher in Kinobody. I think
he's well in the top guys as far as his backend team, his marketing team. He's also starting
his own company now called Truth Nutraceuticals. And he looks like he's killing it and the
cool thing is he literally has like no following. But he's so good, just sells pages, and marketing
Facebook ads, I mean, some of his Facebook ads are getting a million plus hits on his
videos. That's not easy to do. Two other guys I know personally is gonna be Alex Ames in
Utah and a guy named David Frey down in Houston. Both those guys are mentoring me, they're
both living a kinda lifestyle I want to live. They're both good guys, they're genuine, they've
literally helped me for no money, for free. Giving me advice after advice. Personally,
it's gonna be my dad. As I'm older, I appreciate how much he sacrificed to take care of me
and my family or my siblings, has tons of money guys and I'm learning as I get older,
everything cost money. I have six siblings. So you can imagine especially on a teacher's
salary, how difficult that was. And I respect and I look up to my dad.
Question number 2, what do I do for fun? So for fun, usually, what I'll do is movies,
or work on my business. I truly love working on my business. I get frustrated sometimes
when people take stuff for granted, but I love working on my business and then when
I want to relax, it's movies. I'm so active all the time already that like when sometimes
I want to go hiking stuff like that. I'm not really down for it, because I already do it
all the time. These, I really like to do, you know really have some type of girlfriend,
like at home meal, and some wine or like cuddle sex, I'm down. Just gotta find her. I don't
know where she is.
Last question, how long does my routine take? I have a personal coaching and I also have
my rapid muscle system, one is like a blueprint, 69 bucks, take it, follow it. You still get
to interact with me but I'm not doing anything customized for you. It's customized but you
have to set it up. If you follow the formulas and stuff I have in there, it is customized.
But you have to follow. Most people won't read. If you do online, I set it up all for
you, but that's more expensive because I'm doing everything for you I just say, "Hey,
do this," and I teach you but I'm like, "Here you go." And if you follow this you're good.
Instead of you having to read, if you come home, you pay me, you show up after work,
there is your plan - type deal. Those go from anywhere from - my Rapid Muscle System's a
12 week program, obviously when you're done, you can run it again but in 12 weeks, you
just see some drastic changes. As far as online training, that can go 8 to 16 weeks and you
can re-up that all you want but most people when they're done, they don't need me anymore.
I tell them that, say, "Hey, pay me one time, get outta here, send me referrals," Those
are my ex-customers, not you. I don't want to keep you using you over and over again.
I don't think that's right. And honestly, if you teach someone, you shouldn't need to.
Fitness isn't that hard. The reason everyone thinks it's hard, guys for doing what they
should be doing as far as diet and exercise they all just push whatever that gets them
the muscle most.
Those are the Q&A's guys. Sorry this video dragged on and on and on. I hope I hit all
the points. And I hope you guys understand where I'm coming from on certain things. This
isn't me complaining. This is the life I chose. This is what I want, but enough's enough.
I'm tired of it. And I'm gonna keep grinding and do what I got to do, and I know it's not
gonna go away, but I just want to address that people who actually see this.
Thank you guys so much for watching. Make sure to comment, subscribe, if you have anything
you need to ask, message me I will answer it. Thanks so much for watching. See you on
the next one.
