Discussing the up coming 🏀 tournament:

Miller - Dad. It can only be one.... is basketball about winning or fun?

Me - can’t it be both?

Miller - You gotta pick one

Me - Man that’s tough, what do you think?

Often I have no idea how to answer nuanced questions that arise

[Josh @JoshP_Whittaker]

Client: “I hadn’t cried for so long” said proudly and shattered that she had.

“I think it’s interesting that you see that as a good thing?”

The stigma with emotions needs to change. Especially 😢.

We don’t need more ppl unable to express their emotions and bottling 💩 up

[Josh @JoshP_Whittaker]

For most of the ppl I see about ex, the biggest thing they’re missing is consistency.

They’re concerned with duration, intensity, rep ranges, sets, tempos, ex selection, load, ect.

A moderate program done consistently✅ shits all over a perfect program done sporadically 💩

[Josh @JoshP_Whittaker]

Be the example that you expect of and tell others to be.

Show, don’t tell.

At what age or what is the criteria for guys wearing a tee or rashy into the pool? I’ve just noticed a lot of dads going for it recently and all I want to do is rock my dad bod in budgies

“And then the (*insert health professional*) crossed out my eating disorder diagnosis on my referral with his pen stating

‘You are too heavy to have an eating disorder’ “

And that’s when my heart broke.

💔💔💔

Words from a consult today 🤦‍♂️😢🙇‍♂️

Me to my new 88 y/o client today:

“What advice would you give your 32 y/o self?”

“Three things
1) have lots of sex.
2) drink a little, but not too much.
3) have fun. Fun will keep you alive for a long time.

Legend. Very funny. And wise.... and he wasn’t a creep either 🤣👌

Driving in car:

Miller - “what’s your favourite yoda quote out of these 2:

- fear is the path to the dark side. Fear leads to hate. Hate leads to anger. Anger leads to suffering.

Or

- do or do not, there is no try.”

Me - “say that first quote again”

[Josh @JoshP_Whittaker]

FaceTiming miller at work

Me - I’ve gotta do my hair mate
Miller - yeah you don’t want to look like an animal

Does hair....

Me - how do I look mate?
Miller - you still look like an animal

[Josh @JoshP_Whittaker]

What 2 things are you grateful for today guys

Miller:

“Fresh air and my beautiful life”

Don’t think he was playing me. But I do think he was starting to get it.

“What makes your life beautiful mate?”

Miller proceeds to list many many things.

My client today

“Nobody ever died saying:

‘I wish I worked more’...

Remember what’s important Josh”

[Josh @JoshP_Whittaker]

1/2

M - dad you gotta choose
Me - ok mate hit me up.
M - either mum dies or both me & nova die
Me - mate I can’t answer that

Miller has always been a great question asker. Prides himself on asking hard questions.

Big tick tonight.... ✅

My turn though....

[Josh @JoshP_Whittaker]

2/2

Me - ok miller, me or mum dies... who you choosing? Gotta pick one.
M - well.... probably you. Cause mum feeds us and buys us stuff. You just goto work.

Gee thanks bro.

I also taught him not to ask questions he doesn’t want the answer to.

He got me yet again ✅

[Josh @JoshP_Whittaker]

Gave a mate my old pinarello road bike. 3 months later he asks for 3.5k for a new bike

Me - “What for Mot?”

Mot - “Because I’ve been a good friend for a long time”

Me - “I already gave you a bike! What have you done for me?”

Mot - ......

Poor fella thinks I’m being stiff 🤔

[Josh @JoshP_Whittaker]

Convos with grasshoppa (GH)

GH - I’ve got good and bad news dad
Me - let’s go bad news first mate
GH - I’m moving to WA when I’m older
Me - and the good news my man?
GH - I’ll come home every 4 weeks though
Me - why are you moving?
GH - I’m just keen to support Pennerith Dad

[Josh @JoshP_Whittaker]

Miller - I know what you can have for your birthday dad!

Me - What’s that mate?

Miller - you can fart as much as you want and Mum can’t tell you off.

Miller - MUM! Did you hear that? You can’t tell dad off for farting on his birthday.

All my dreams have come true guys 🙏🙏

[Josh @JoshP_Whittaker]

Miller - hey dad, do you remember the rule in your car?

Me - nope, what was that son?

Miller - we’re allowed to roll up our boogers and flick them out the window.

Well, don’t remember saying that, but it sounds like something that’d come out of my mouth

Gotta watch myself

[Josh @JoshP_Whittaker]

Taking our first virtual basketball training session and after establishing some ground rules...

“Any questions?”

“Since corona virus Josh, I’ve lost 4 teeth”
