fERGIE’S tOP 5+ Knowledge Nuggets and Take-Aways
- Posture is nervous system training, not a reminder to “stand up straight.” 🧠
- The brain adapts to what it repeats most, so constant sitting, driving, and screen time quietly program the body. 📱
- Posture directly impacts confidence because physical tone shapes mental state and projected energy. 💪
- Collapsing forward restricts rib expansion, alters breathing mechanics, and limits oxygen — a non-negotiable for the brain. 🌬️
- Peak performance depends on three essentials: glucose, oxygen, and activation. Miss one and everything suffers. ⚙️
- The real cheat code is staying relaxed and tall, not tense and rigid. 😌

And Doc, thank you so much for coming on. Please introduce yourself to the Time to Shine today, podcast Varsity Squad.
The first, what’s your favorite color
Dr. Brett Hill: and why? Hey, thanks for having me. My favorite color would be like [00:03:00] a bluish green, sure. And I guess I always aqua kinda like that. But yeah, aqua, and I think part of it is. I do a lot of back bang. So these lakes I go to, the most beautiful lakes I go to are just this like bluish green color that you can see.
The gr it’s makes me feel
Coach Fergie: amazing. It is beautiful up there. I know that the, I think Calgary was in the Stanley Cup finals this year against this Florida team over here. I’m from Detroit, man. So it’s like I were Red Wings through and through. That was
Dr. Brett Hill: rivals the Edmonton Whalers. But the Calgary Flames did not make it there, but that’s so Oh, okay.
That’s what it’s
Coach Fergie: Oh, that’s right. That’s right. That’s not, yes, that’s right. It was Edmonton. Yeah, that’s right. Yeah. Yeah. So we won’t go there. Excellent. So let’s go a little bit to your roots, where did you attend chiropractor school?
Dr. Brett Hill: I went down to Dallas, Texas. Wow, okay. So Parker University down in Dallas, Texas.
I went to school there. It was great. I was, being from Canada and I went to the University of Calgary my undergrad, and they’re looking at the different schools that one just offered [00:04:00] the most. I was like, I want the best, I want the most, and offered a lot of different diversity of learning.
Okay. The best, when I say the best, there’s a lot of different kinda philosophies and avenues with chiropractic. Sure. And that one just had a lot of opportunity to
Coach Fergie: learn. Why, and I’m not saying this in a judgmental way, I’m not saying why, but like why chiropractic? What really pushed you into that?
More a holistic healing, and also are you a doctor that also believes when medicine’s needed, we use it.
Dr. Brett Hill: A hundred percent. Okay. I was actually thinking of going into med school. Okay. Growing up I played every sport I could. So grew up in a small town, I was like what can I do to use my time?
I’ll play base baseball or badminton or volleyball, football, basketball, like literally any sport I could play I tried to do I was really about the body movement, health. But my mom had a lot of health issues growing up and I thought, oh, I like helping people. I’m going to become a medical doctor.
And what I found is some of the chronic things and a lot of the health issues that she was dealing with, migraines and autoimmune problems. Sure. [00:05:00] It was just another pill. It was like, we’ll take this, we’ll try this drug, we’ll try that drug. And then. Then it developed other problems because of the drug.
And I realized, that’s not what I want to do to really solve the problem. Sure. And so I’ve got buddies that, medical doctors, we have discussions, but. You need, you have a major problem. Go to the medical doctor to get that fixed emergency wise, and they’re gonna take care of you. Great there.
A lot of the chronic problems we see, it’s maybe not always in my perspective, we get stuck on these drugs that manages symptoms sometimes. But the end goals should be
Coach Fergie: right.
Dr. Brett Hill: How do we get to the root of the problem and help the body heal, love that, and do things there. So using a mix there is my philosophy with that.
Okay. And so that drew me to look at chiropractic a little bit more. My fiance at the time and then wife. She got in a car accident and went to a chiropractor and. He was talking to her about different things and was like, oh, do you have any gut [00:06:00] issues or ulcer? She had an ulcer or something at the time.
She was like, that’s interesting. How did you know that? And. I was doing my undergrad at the time and had mentioned, yeah, maybe chiropractic. I don’t know what sure I want to do. And he had me come in, talk to me about it. Learned a little bit more about how the nervous system can help regulate the body help it heal when it gets the right information and it resonated.
I went and learned a little bit more and that drew me. Go to chiropractic school.
Coach Fergie: Wow.
Dr. Brett Hill: What’s interesting with that is, going to school, I was like, I just wanna learn what’s the most impactful thing I’m gonna learn that, bring it back and just help people in the best way. And I found that wasn’t the case.
I found there’s so many different avenues, different aspects of adjustment styles that you can go to one clinic and think. This is this is how it should be done. And then you go to another one, it’s is this still chiropractic? And it’s oh, this is frustrating. But it drew me to the neurology understanding what happens at the neural neurological level when someone’s adjust or when this muscle stretch or when this whatever exercise happens.
And that’s [00:07:00] what drew me to impact people a little bit more. Having a better understanding of when we move this way, what does it do to our brain and our nervous system, and then how do we adapt that to improve our health overall? It looks like you’re pulling a lot of
Coach Fergie: physiology into it as well, kind of movement of the body.
And finding the rec, correct. I’m not a big believer in balance. I think that balance is zero, right? I believe more of a harmonic movement, right? Like things are in place and picture a jazz band like this part of the body’s, the drums, the other part’s, the horns.
And if one of ’em out of. Tune then it sounds like crap. So we gonna have it harmonic. Hence my book coming out. Harmonic Hustle Squad out there coming in soon. But no, it’s with with it, it sounds like you like to put that the human body into harmony with itself.
Dr. Brett Hill: In a way, yes.
It’s more of the nervous system. Oh, gotcha. Okay. Neuroplastic changes that if we can get that to adapt and that neuroplastic. Yeah, neuroplastic changes. That’s basically the more we activate the nervous system to make a [00:08:00] change, the more it becomes, learns new or novel things to have that change versus we do the same things over and over again and expect to get a different result.
It’s not gonna happen. We’re not changing that nervous system. And. That’s really what drew me to develop this posture program. It’s more than just sitting up straight, oh, I gotta pull my shoulders back or sit up tall. We found it’s not that easy and when we get down to the root of it, posture is core to our health and it’s really.
Changing that is core to these neuroplastic changes that we do. Whether good or bad, you think, how many hours are you sitting at a desk all day doing computer work? And most people nowadays we driving, sitting at a computer or even walking on our phones looking down.
Coach Fergie: Sure.
Dr. Brett Hill: These micro activations really impact that nervous system to adapt to those patterns. Over a period of time. Wow. Wow. And we don’t realize the impact until years down the road and it’s wow, I can’t move that way
Coach Fergie: anymore. And I’m [00:09:00] really working through it. ’cause I really got into this ultra running thing.
Like I’ve been running trail races that are longer. My body, I had to get more mobility to it. And like with my chiropractor, my movement specialist, Matt Lab, Bosco, shout out to him at OS movement. Like it’s really just changing my body feels like in line and more fluid, like more just kinda like I’m able to flow with stuff.
And speaking of that is doctor, like most people think that posture is just standing up straight, which you mentioned before, right? But you say it impacts the brain health and confidence. Can you break down how slouching itself which I’ve been known to do ’cause I was a heavy weightlifter, blah, blah, blah, all that stuff.
Can you break down how slouching could actually be sabotaging the success in life and in business?
Dr. Brett Hill: A hundred percent. Most of us see it and we think, oh, that doesn’t look good. Or, yeah, that’s not great for me. When we go to a deeper level of what’s happening, I think it’s important to understand, what neurologically is happening to our brain, to our body.
When we [00:10:00] slouch, when we look at the computer, those that may be watching on YouTube will be able to see this a bit. We’re just naturally drawn into whatever we see, so it’s easy to drop forward. Oh, and as our head drops, we have so much neuro input into our visual our vestibular system and our neck spinal system.
’cause there’s a ton of receptors right at the base of our skull and in our neck. So we lean forward, we don’t look down, we are still looking at that screen and we just let gravity take us, so we collapse. What that does is it can tighten these muscles at the base of our skull. Sure that these muscles are designed just to keep us kind of level.
So we see the world in a level. Yes. A level world. And so what happens, these can lead to headaches, tension. It also lengthens these muscles. Here we decrease our rib expansion. And that’s really important. Breathing when we think of the brain breathing. Yes. Okay. Because the brain and nervous system needs three things really to survive.
It needs glucose. So good nutrition, it [00:11:00] needs. Oxygen. So good breathing and it needs activation. So when we’re not moving, we’re not using it. When we’re slouching, we’re letting gravity collapse us. We’re not using the muscle system to support us. Now, we have a decrease in that nerve activation.
It shuts down areas called our frontal lobe or pre prefrontal cortex areas. Yes, sir. That are always firing just by standing up against gravity. That’s why, I use a standing desk and I’m standing right now. Every now and then I’ll balance on one leg or the other. It fires my frontal lobe, my brain to activate a lot more versus when we sit, that area shuts down.
It can lead to a deactivation of others, of our brain where now we can be more stressed or anxious because we’re not able to reason as well or have that good decision making. So it really impacts. How we feel, our energy levels, things like that. I’m sure you’ve probably heard of or use yourself like a super posture or superhero posture, if you’re going to do a presentation or something like that. Absolutely.
Coach Fergie: Yeah, [00:12:00] man.
Dr. Brett Hill: There’s a reason for that. We do that to look better. Yeah. To feel and appear more confident
Coach Fergie: and, but it
Dr. Brett Hill: comes across in the way we talk, and the energy that we portray. And that’s because our physical.
Postural tone automatically changes our mental awareness. Of our body and ourself. Sure. And we can feel it and others can see it in us. What if we change that more than just when we’re going to do a presentation and we held that all the time. What difference would we feel or think about ourselves or others would see in us if we could have that awareness?
Coach Fergie: And if you feel good. You want to produce more for yourself, right? You want to live into what you’re feeling. Like Deanne Saunders, the, famous football player. You look good, you feel good, you play good, you make more money. It’s like the same thing is I do have kind of something I do with my clients where they have to stand like Superman or Wonder Woman, whatever it is, to like really open up that diaphragmic breathing.
But now that I’ve learned this, I can [00:13:00] even add in. To what it’s doing for the brain function and in, in moving forward. You’ve built the, your Posture program so people can change their health from legitly anywhere in the world and squad Hear that anywhere in the world? You can, we, I can put you together with Dr.
Brett here. Okay. So what’s the biggest excuse you hear from people about why they can’t fix their posture and how do you crush that excuse?
Dr. Brett Hill: Yeah. I love that question because we’re all busy. We will get people that they start it and they’re like, oh, I just didn’t have time to do the exercise, or I didn’t have time to do this or that.
And I say in five. 10 years from now when you’re still dealing with these same problems, you’re still not having the energy or difficulty lifting up your kids or playing with them on the floor, whatever it is, but you haven’t taken the little steps. Now it’s only gonna get worse if you don’t have the time now.
You won’t have time to do the things you love later. Exactly. And so we designed this program. To make it [00:14:00] simple. In fact, one of the things we, we have available for people is in five minutes a day just doing some simple exercise to get started. If they do it regularly throughout their day, makes a big difference because it’s something that people just don’t have awareness of.
Did you say five seconds? Five minutes. Five minutes. Okay. Yes. Five minutes a day. Doing these simple things, it’s all about repetition with it.
Coach Fergie: Sure.
Dr. Brett Hill: It’s not going to the gym doing an hour workout. You don’t have to really have a ton of time, and I think that’s why it’s sometimes difficult for people in doing this is.
They don’t take that little bit. They’re used to like scheduling out big time in their day to exercise. This isn’t necessarily exercising. This is building awareness throughout your day-to-day stuff so that it becomes automatic and becomes part of who you are in everything you do. And so we break that down of just.
Take one minute here, after sitting for 45 minutes and do one of our exercises, then sit again for an hour. Sure. Then get up. You think, how many hours are we sitting if we just do one to, to two minutes every hour? [00:15:00] That can make a massive difference and everybody can do
Coach Fergie: that and wouldn’t, I’m sitting right now.
Okay. And the reason why I am is my. Dust decide to take a crap. My standing desk, I’m usually, if you look at any of my other, videos and stuff, I’m usually standing doing my podcast interviews. But Matt Le Bosco, again, he’s my movement coach here, for stuff and what I compete in, whether it’s jiujitsu or the running.
And he says that when I sit for, up to 30 minutes, 40 minutes an hour. The cells in my body start to form to that, to become making it that kind of a habit. He put it in a way more technical way, but that’s the way I understand it, is that you’re gonna get stuck where you are the most.
So that’s what I am taking away a little bit from you as well, that get the movement, and you’re giving them five minutes a day to get started and squad, I talk about morning routines and stuff like that in five minutes. Is pretty easy to fit into your morning routine.
It’s not hard at all. Yeah. I have people that actually I work with Doc just for [00:16:00] my morning routine or put them into their morning routine to get them going. And this is gonna be this very exciting stuff that you have with what you’re actually able to offer. You’re a pioneer in a sense.
Not too many chiropractors are doing this correct.
Dr. Brett Hill: Correct. Really we wanted to create something that was different and in my practice in clinical practice. My goal was to just help people in the most impactful way possible. The fastest way possible. And a lot of the things we kept seeing all related, when we looked at the root of the problem foundationally, how do we get them functioning better?
We weren’t focused on, oh, that feels better. Okay. That tissue’s moving better. You must be better. No, what at the root is causing this to really be affected? And we found posture was a huge factor because. If we fixed neurologically, we were giving the same kind of exercise things, and some of them, some exercises are different than what you might think in what we would give people where, we’re doing balance with some movement of one leg or [00:17:00] an arm to offset the weakness in the spinal control.
On the other side, side counter counterbalance, is that what. Is Yeah, we look to see where’s that nervous system? Weak on Right or left side. People might have a head tilt and they might have, yeah. It goes back to neurological. Got it. Okay. Exactly. And like you said, our body kind of adapts, it forms those cells form to that.
If we’re sitting all day, using our right arm, leaning forward on that and whatnot, our body adapts to that and our nervous system adapts to that. And it becomes our new normal. We’re sitting there right now, everyone’s, oh, my, my hamstrings are tight. My hip flexors are tight.
Hours on, on end, that’s what your brain is getting a feedback loop to say, this is the position we should be at. Shorten the hamstring, shorten the hip flexors. Now that becomes the new normal. So people stand and they’re like, oh yeah, at risk of pulling a hammy or something like that when they run, because their bo, their brain is used to this is normal.
We’re now stretched. We’re in a standing position when in reality that should be our normal positioning. And so partially things change. And so we. We get them to be aware of these subtle [00:18:00] muscles and we start with the head. The body follows the head and everything you do. So that’s why looking at our phones, looking at the computer, when we lean forward like I was demonstrating, then our core starts to weaken and we start to lean forward in the hips.
It’s just a natural adaptation to be efficient in our balance system. Sure. But in order to correct that, most people use their big muscles to pull everything back. Sure. And it’s not that simple.
Coach Fergie: No. And
Dr. Brett Hill: as we were going through and building people up in and doing these exercises, we found. We can help a lot more people get results by taking this online.
And we can, we have a video call once a week with people on how they’re doing because nobody does the exercise perfectly. The first week or two? Yeah, because. They’re used to adapting into what they think is normal. And so we correct that and it helps ’em to feel, oh, I didn’t even know I could move that way or control those very small muscles.
I, I didn’t even know they were there. I love that you said, and that’s one thing
Coach Fergie: we hear all the time that it’s the big muscles, like if you’re to be like, Fergi, stand up straight I’m pulling all my [00:19:00] big muscles back, right? That there’s so many ancillary, helpful muscles that. Are there that, that are actually being tuned up or put into harmony to work and relieve pain and actually live a better life.
You’re working in kind of in an industry doc where people want quick fixes, so how do you balance, I’m using that word balance, but how do you balance giving people simple, practical strategies with the reality? That transfer transformation takes, consistent work. So come to, what meeting or come, discussion you have.
It’s like how does one of those usually go between you and a patient?
Dr. Brett Hill: And as we talked at the beginning, it’s those that are really looking for this change that are gonna commit to it. Because everybody can improve their posture. Everybody should be focused on their posture, in my opinion.
But not everyone’s ready. Two. And if you’re not wanting to do something, you’re not ready to, you’re not gonna do it. So we can’t force that change. We can’t make that change if you’re not ready to do it. [00:20:00] But that’s why we made it as simple as possible. If people just do a little bit here and they’re each day and this is something where it’s oh you’re making a sandwich or getting your coffee ready at the morning.
We’re gonna do some balance while we’re waiting for that toasted. To come outta the toaster or your coffee to be ready, right? We’re gonna do some things in our day-to-day stuff. Driving in the car. We’re gonna show you what to do, at a stoplight. Pull your head up, push into the back of that, that headrest a little bit, drive your core back and feel your shoulder blades come down.
So we’re using these muscles and. That’s something where when we start this program, we start with the head, then we go into the core, then we go into the shoulders. If people just try to go right off the bat and do what I just said of Okay, push my head back, push my butt back and shoulders back, they’re gonna use all the wrong muscles.
Sure. But those are some simple ways, and that’s why, we offer to, to, through the coaching program we do is we work with them once a week to easily adapt these things and click. And then we [00:21:00] also, the assessments are really cool because. If people don’t see results, it’s yeah, I think I’m making progress, but I don’t know if I can keep up with this.
So we assess them at the very beginning. We assess ’em in the middle and at the end and because it’s just subtle changes that we’re making, they don’t notice it day in, day out. Just like when we’re sitting at a computer, we don’t notice how our postures taking a toll day in, day out.
Coach Fergie: Right.
Dr. Brett Hill: So as we do these exercises and we assess ’em in the middle, it’s okay, we’ve made some changes, but we still have work to do.
And at the end we can compare these. They’re the, we hear all the time. People are like, wow. I didn’t feel like I was making that big a change. This is awesome to see. That was a massive difference in only 10 weeks. Sure. And and it’s those little incremental things as we make ’em accountable, but also.
Have the support there to be like look at the progress you’re making. It’s encouraging and it helps us to keep going. Love it. And
Coach Fergie: if one of my varsity squad out there that it, that’s out there is blessed to grow to 177,000 strong. Thank you so much to my listeners and the people that [00:22:00] contribute that.
If someone out there is listening right now and they hunched over their phone, laptop and they know they feel like garbage can you give us and I’ll put it, I’m actually gonna put this clip into. The actual webpage and on Spotify, but one shift that they could make today that would like posture shift.
Is there something like right now they feel like garbage, something that’s like your go-to in a, like a 32nd, elevator pitch. Kinda saying Yeah. Is there something that’s a go-to that can make us actually feel a little bit better in the moment?
Dr. Brett Hill: You betcha. This is one of the first similar to one of the first exercises we give that we’ll give in the videos we can give away actually right now. But if you look at me most people, they’ve seen these exercises where it’s oh, I, my head’s forward. I gotta just tuck this chin back.
And I, they do these and I gotta tell you, that’s not comfortable. I don’t like it. And it’s not normal posture because posture doesn’t just go straightforward or straight back. What you want to do is like dancers get this, they’re told to. [00:23:00] Think of a string pulling them tall. Most of the time when people think of that, string pulls ’em up, they lift their shoulder.
So what I’d say is think of your head pulling tall with a little bit of that chin tuck so that your ear goes over your shoulder. Take a deep breath in. Think of that being tall, and then relax your shoulders. What we want to do is dissociate our whole body movement with our shoulders from our spine, and when our head can pull us up and we just relax the shoulders there, we can realize, man, I’m holding my shoulders all the time.
I don’t need to be tense all the time. So that breathing, we incorporate that breathing. Think of just pulling tall, pulling the chin back so your ears are over, your shoulders. Relax the shoulders, because it’s a lot easier to hold that position. And that’d be, it’s simple,
Coach Fergie: right? But
Dr. Brett Hill: if you do that every now and then, it’s oh, I can still be tall and feel confident.
And feel relaxed at the same time.
Coach Fergie: Love that. It is funny. If it wasn’t laminated, I’d rip it right off of my monitor. The little area I have, EOS, ear over shoulders. I, it’s literally on my [00:24:00] computer on the monitor there and it’s, and that little laminations moved from since 2007. That I was told that.
Ears over shoulders. Ears over shoulders. Yep. I love that. So let me ask you something, doc. So a little bit about you then. So have you seen the movie Back to the Future? Yep. Okay. Let’s not dolo with Marty McFly, let’s go back to the double deuce, the 22-year-old, Dr. Brett, is there any knowledge nugget get you to drop on him?
Not to change anything, right? Because your trajectory’s been pretty awesome, but to maybe help him shorten the learning curve a little bit, blast through a little bit quicker. What do you think he might say to him?
Dr. Brett Hill: I, I think I would say be humble enough to listen to those smarter than you.
I’m pretty, pretty driven to do things on my own. Like I, I can do this, I can do that. Using other people’s that no more than me and recognizing, Hey, this will help me get there a lot faster. Yeah. Like a coach, something like that. Yeah. Don’t have to do all those struggles. I’m figured out all on my
Coach Fergie: own.
So many clues, [00:25:00] man. I, myself, I’m blessed to stand on the shoulders of a lot of giants. I’m in an NFL clubhouse every Wednesday, i’m an HL clubhouse. I’m working with clients. You know that I never thought, I used to have mad imposter syndrome, right? But it’s the reason why I’m in here and I’m going to like the UFC fights and have clients there is because.
I stand on those shoulders. I’ve asked, man, I am so curious. That’s my superpower. Even people are like, dude, Fergie, how’d you do that? But I asked, bro, I got my asking gear is what I’d say. And that’s what I would recommend. I love that you said that. Find someone smarter than you and learn from ’em.
That’s beautiful. It’s hard when you’re 22, brother. ’cause I didn’t, yeah, I’ll tell you that right now. Yeah. How do you want your dash to remember that little line in between your incarnation date and your expiration date, your life date and death date? Think you, by the way, for listening to some of our shows, this is amazing that you took the time to do it.
’cause I see you knowing what questions are coming, but how do you like your dash? How do you want your dash remembered, brother?
Dr. Brett Hill: I do love your show. It’s impactful. So I appreciate it. Thank you. I guess when I think about [00:26:00] what I wanna be re remembered for, first and foremost, faith in God, in Christ.
Thank you. Second, my family taking time for my family there, for my family. And I think that’s to me the most important thing is where did I devote my time? Because that’s the one thing we can’t buy. That’s the one thing we’ll never get back. Time’s the most important thing. Yes.
And how do we use that time?
Coach Fergie: Yeah.
Dr. Brett Hill: I wanna be remembered for making it each moment count with my family, my kids. And those that I impact to my work.
Coach Fergie: It’s so selfless Christian Guy you’re giving and I just realized something this morning. ’cause I’m not afraid to death it’s gonna happen.
I’ve had to do the deed with, in the military, I get what’s coming. But I looked at it and if I was to live until 97 years old, which I plan to live to a hundred, how do you make God laugh? Tell him your plans, right? So it’s yeah, that’s true. I. Like I only have 2080 weekends left in my life.
You know what I’m saying? It’s that time is going to go by, [00:27:00] bro. I only have 2080 weeks left. If I lived in 97. I’m 53. I live another, 44 years. That’s that. That’s not a lot, right? So yeah, that’s get the people that add love, that that you’re Christian, that you lean into family values and you’re here to serve.
So what is Dr. Brett Hill’s definition of a life well lived?
Dr. Brett Hill: I think yeah, being intentional with that time we have, because, people gimme a hard time. I take forever to respond to text messages or this or that. When I get home, a lot of times I don’t have my phone. In fact, I’ll leave my phone at work sometimes because, love it. I’m not on there all the time when my kids are talking or I’m trying to think, Hey, what are we doing?
I’m there, I’m president present. And I think yeah that’s super important. We you
Coach Fergie: would make a great president by the way. You should said, I’m president. I love No, I love it. Before we get into what exactly your product is and what we’re gonna put out to the squad out there, I [00:28:00] have to go through a few questions that you we, you and I could talk about each one of ’em for five to 10 minutes each.
But today you have five seconds with no explanations. You ready to level up? Oh boy. I’ll try my best. You already took away my first question. Standing or sitting desk? It’s right there, dude. That’s awesome. Like literally how about this? If you could fix the posture of any celebrity or world leader, who would it be?
Dr. Brett Hill: Oh boy. Donald Trump came to mind.
Coach Fergie: I love, he does have the bad posture. Love it. Yeah. Yeah. What’s the best leveling up advice you’ve ever received? Boy. Go get it. Yeah. Yeah. Don’t be afraid. Love it. Share one of your personal habits that contributes to your success.
Dr. Brett Hill: I. Putting, being, being present with people, putting the phone down, putting whatever way, being present with people and listening.
Listen dude,
Coach Fergie: it’s so rare. And that’s so awesome to hear you say that. So you see me kinda, you might see me or meet me someday, man. Fergie looks like he’s in his doldrums. Is there any book that you’ve read other than the [00:29:00] good book that just kinda shift your thinking and you’d hand it to me and say, read this for

Super rook. Super rook. Okay. And that was the, is it something, I’ll let you elaborate on this one. What I’m curious what’s super rook?
In high school, grew up in a small town, but I, in grade nine I played on the senior volleyball team and the senior basketball team. So I was the only grade nine. On the senior team and they call me super rook ’cause I was a not just the rookie on the team. I was the super rookie.
Love it. And so love it
Coach Fergie: because you would, and not no other freshman or anything were there. So beautiful. Yeah. Any hidden talent or superpower that No. That you have, that nobody knows about until now?

Coach Fergie: Very good. Very good. [00:31:00] Last question, best decade of music? Sixties, seventies, eighties or nineties?
Dr. Brett Hill: I’m nineties.
Coach Fergie: Nineties. All right. Very cool.
Dr. Brett Hill: Yeah.
Coach Fergie: Very cool. Awesome. So how can we find
Dr. Brett Hill: you, doc? The best place your posture program dot com, right?
From there people that, that opt into our email list we send out daily like tips, things for posture to help ’em just do things now to adapt and change. And those that want to get some of those videos that I talked about just doing those five minutes a day things can go to your posture program dot com/video.
Video. Okay. Squad,
Coach Fergie: if you’re watching on YouTube or Vimeo, I have it on the screen now, but you said the forward slash video? Yep. Okay. Let’s see. Okay. Wow. Very good. I’m gonna actually put this in the show notes as well. ‘Cause he’ll be able to capture your email as well. What I love about your website though, doc, is it’s not super full of poop.
You know what I’m saying? It’s and it’s this is your website. This is super [00:32:00] clean. You’re telling us what you can do for us, it’s super easy. This is awesome. This is a great website for it, yeah. Appreciate it. And it gets the, that gets the people through.
Okay. And a little bit about the program then. So if you, they wanna opt into your program, and do they talk to you or do you have a team member talk to them, or like how does that work and who are they going to be working with? I heard you say something about possible consultations if they invest in themselves and whatnot.
Dr. Brett Hill: Yeah. You bet. So it’s a 10 week program, the assessment that we do initially. It’s a professional assessment. We do you use an app Okay. To take some pictures on the front, the side and then you link it to our clinic and we will put dots all over that. We’re gonna have a video call to go over those results and really, correlate that to what’s going on in your life and things that might be related to the posture and to make sure that this is a good fit for you.
I love it. Then from there we schedule those in. We do have group calls where there might be a few different people in those [00:33:00] weekly calls. And that can be myself, Dr. Pran or my assistant Juana. She’s a lot better looking than me people might want that one. And you’re handsome dude, brother.
Handsome dude, or we do have a one-on-one with myself too. So where I take you through every week we do that assessment. We have a video call at the end comparing going over the results. And there’s also easy way people to communicate with us daily if they want, have questions in the communities with that program where you’re gonna get the videos, you’re gonna get access to us anytime you want.
Really? Gotcha.
Coach Fergie: Are they
Dr. Brett Hill: able to
Coach Fergie: cross the
Dr. Brett Hill: pay lines through countries and stuff very easily. Yep. Yeah, actually we set it up in, in US dollars too. Okay. As that’s more of our markets. Very good. .
Coach Fergie: From what I’m feeling is that it’s gonna be very worth it.
Very affordable for the I guess the lack of a better term, attention that they get. Like they’re actually talking to somebody, not send a YouTube and said, here you go. Let’s follow this percent. Like you’re like this, I mean you, do you have videos also I forgot to ask you that they can kinda reference [00:34:00] or do they just use what is being talked to them in the moment?
Dr. Brett Hill: Yeah, no. We have videos that we incur. We expect ’em, they’re gonna go through that because beautiful. It’s gonna direct ’em when we’re not there coaching them. Gotcha. To help remind them what does that feel like? What am I actually moving? Because if they try to do it all on their own it’s almost impossible to get the right feeling.
’cause again, they’re gonna just compensate and cheat. And so that’s where the, those video calls are important. There are a lot of things out there where it’s oh, do this exercise to fix your posture. It’s not that easy because you don’t even know how, what those. Those muscles should feel like.
And that’s where the coaching comes in and is amazing. And we’re really transforming people. Those that have headaches, those that have tension in their neck, chronically that are tired, fatigued. We’re taking those people and we’re giving them their life. Our clinic here is called Experience Life because we want people to experience life to the fullest.
Part of that. If they get to the root of their problem fixing their posture they can do so much more. Gotcha. And whether it be training like yourself and juujitsu or surfing or [00:35:00] other things, it really helps strengthen your spine Absolutely. At the foundational level.
To then weight lift or work out in other ways to build different strength and coordination. But it really gets to the root of people’s problems and it makes a
Coach Fergie: big transformation for ’em. I love that you’re saying it because it’s I’m a big believer in hybrid training where cardio is very important, but also elasticity, plasticity near, neuroplasticity, like all of that is.
The weights, like everything just should be a hybrid of a little bit without confusing things too much. And you take the posture part, the alignment part, and make it easy for the people and I absolutely love that. So Doc, as we let you go, leave it, please do me a solid and leave us one last knowledge nugget that the squad out there can take with them, internalize and take action on.
Dr. Brett Hill: Yeah, I would say, where do you want to be five years from now, 10 years from now? Who do you see yourself as? Take those little steps, take that little bit of time, that intentional time to make small changes now that will affect you in a [00:36:00] huge way later on. Because like I said, that time we can’t get back right that time, take that little bit of time to just look at your kid and listen to ’em or to, really be intentional with what you’re doing and whether it be your health, and that’s why we do the posh program.
We really want people to live a full. W whether it be with your loved ones, whatever it is, it, it doesn’t have to be a big grand thing, right? Take those little bits of time, those add up and a really meaningful day in, day
Coach Fergie: out. I love the compounding that you’re mentioning. Squad. Again, like we talk about a lot here on time, shine Day is that inch by inch?
It’s a inch right by the yard. It’s hard. And the what I’m taking away from Doc here as a yard is if you don’t do anything. It’s gonna, you’re gonna be sicker, further on down the line. Like he really broke it down into glucose. Oxygen and activation. A lot of people know about the glucose, the energy, the oxygen.
We have to have that. But the activation of the body is very important. If you’re out there and you might be an expert. Be humble enough to listen to what’s going on [00:37:00] here, because I mean it, he’s changed my mind on a couple things with regards to movement and actually he said something about pulling the shoulders back a different way where lifting up at the top and then pulling it back where you’re much more in harmony by doing that.
He wants you to be really intentional with the time that you have on this earth, and that. I just see doc like planting trees here that he’s never gonna sit in the shade of. I think he’s really onto something here that is really going to level up the masses. So again, I want you to go to their website, the posture program dot com, or if you need me to put you in touch with ’em, 5 6 1 4 4 0 3 8 3 0.
And I’m also willing to pull up a scholarship for a portion of the cost of the of. Basically taking your life to the next level. So if you’re interested in it, call me five six one four four zero three three zero and we’ll talk about that and I’ll put you in touch with, Dr. Brett Hill and his team over there as well.
So Doc, thank you so much for coming on. You’ve earned your Varsity squad letter here. Time to Shine today. Thank you. Thank you again [00:38:00] brother, and I look forward to carrying on this conversation in the future.
