 What's up ZenDude community? What's going on guys? We're shooting this video today because we have a very important first ZenDude fitness retreat coming up June 21st through the 25th. We're going to Costa Rica. We're going to Costa Rica. Manuel San Antonio beach. It's pretty much like the prettiest beach you've ever seen in your life. So guys check this out. We work with this awesome company under 30 experiences run by our friend Matt and what they do is specialize in putting on amazing fitness retreats. So everything from the food to the activities to the fellowship to the size to the accommodations is going to be insanely awesome. So we have an awesome place booked for you guys in Costa Rica. You're going to be eating some ZenDude bowls. You know I'm saying going on some hikes some fresh caught fish fresh caught fish right out the ocean. Yeah we're going to go hand fishing one day spear fishing. So this trip is going to be five days long four nights total and really we're going to pack it in with just adventure like the whole point of this is get you out of your comfort zone get you out of your normal routine and start having you do stuff that Zen dudes do exploring the jungle going on surfing expeditions jumping rope of course beach bonfires one of the biggest reasons guys that we are putting this together is also simply because we have never met any of you in person well that's not true we've met a few of you in person but a lot of you guys we have not and we thought what a better way than to all come together and start to get to know in person this great community then to just go to a beach together do a bunch of activities live that Zen dude lifestyle for a few days and just have some fun and fellowship and like I said on a beach. Yeah and Dan and I have done things like this before together and what we realized is like when you have these kind of experiences you come out of them just on a new level of thinking you come out of it just feeling lighter and just more aware of what's most important life and that's what's really important is to have those experiences that take you out of whatever normal routine you're in so you can see like how grateful you should be for everything you do have. Yeah I'm not gonna lie guys we might have a little bonfire howl at the moon a little bit act like animals who cares we're gonna be on a beach in Costa Rica doing our thing being humans and most importantly having fun. Brandon and I have made it a lifestyle to just have more fun get fit while doing it and enjoy life more. I think in a chaotic world today guys trips like this are so necessary for you to just break away from your regular routine and come hang out with some goofy dude so you can have some fun with you know learn a lot of information and also get a little bit fit and healthy. Wow like I said having fun that's fun this is not going to be a fitness retreat where we're getting you guys out of bed at like five thirty and ten out so that you can do all these crazy workouts we are going to be actively tricking ourselves the entire time into eating and calorie deficit and doing a bunch of fun calorie burning activities. This trip is specifically for really getting out there and doing outdoor fitness and forgetting that you're even exercising. You're gonna get lean. You're gonna get lean for sure. You're gonna get so lean that you're gonna come back and your wife's gonna be like oh my god get out of the house you're an actor you're not supposed to be. All right you guys in all seriousness this is gonna be a really fun trip there's gonna be a lot of adventure of course you're gonna move your body a lot and a lot of bear hugs and a lot of bear hugs a lot of bear hugs and we also are gonna be very tactical about what we're doing right it's gonna be fun but we want to find out what each and every one of you want from this experience we want to understand like what are your goals what do you want for this trip what do you want for your life and we're gonna talk about then discuss like how do you go from like having a lofty goal whether it be fitness related or otherwise to being able to break it down into specific action steps and get there and that's kind of stuff we want to bring your mind to we want to bring your attention to because when you're busy you just don't have time to think about this stuff so sometimes you have to go to Costa Rica and have this completely foreign experience that's different from anything that you usually do to have those aha moments understand like hey i want to take on this or i want to take on that i want to really dedicate myself to just something i care about we hope that you'll join us in Costa Rica June 21st to the 25th for an epic time with great people and if you have any questions about it drop them in the comments let's do this
