Akā, ua hoʻolauna mua ʻia au i ka hoʻolei hāmare ma ke kulanui i ka wā i hana mai ai kaʻu kaʻi iaʻu e kiʻi. ʻO ka hoʻolei hāmare ke kī i kau ʻia ma ka uea. Kaupaona ʻia he ʻehā kilo-e like me ka galani o ka waiū. E wili ʻoe a ma hope e hoʻokuʻu. Ua hana maikaʻi wau ... a ke hana nei au!

Helehelena: He aha ke ʻano o ke komo ʻana i ka haʻuki i kaupalena ʻia i nā kāne ma ka pae 'Olumepika a hiki i kēia manawa?

AB: Manaʻo wau he mea weliweli. ʻAʻole mākou i piʻi i ka pae honua a hiki i ka hoʻomaka ʻana o 2000s-ʻo ia ka manawa i hiki ai iā mākou ke hoʻokūkū ma ka pae aupuni-no laila me ka hāmare wahine e hoʻonohonoho nei mākou i nā moʻolelo o ka honua. Ke ulu nei a ke komo nei ka poʻe i loko o ia mea a ke haki nei mākou i nā moʻolelo i kēlā me kēia makahiki no ka mea he mea hou loa ia.

Helehelena: He aha ke ʻano o ka hoʻomaʻamaʻa ʻana i ka hoʻomākaukau no ka hoʻokūkū?

He ʻano aʻo kikoʻī loa ia. Loaʻa iā mākou kahi mea i kapa ʻia he ikaika hammer, kahi e hoʻomaʻamaʻa ai mākou me kahi paona 20 paona a i ʻole hammer 16 paona, a hoʻāʻo e hoʻāla i ko mākou ikaika kikoʻī, ma mua o ka ikaika holoʻokoʻa.

Helehelena: ʻO ʻoe kahi junkie protein i hoʻolaha ponoʻī ʻia. He aha ke ʻano o ka lā ʻai?

AB:No ka mea, ʻo ka hoʻolei hāmare he haʻuki mana ia, pili ia i ka protein. Nani wale kaʻu ʻai ʻana he ʻiʻo ʻulaʻula a me ka moa. Ke ala aʻe au, e loaʻa ana iaʻu kahi omelette ʻeono mau hua-ʻelua mau hua manu āpau a ʻehā mau hua manu hua manu me ka piha lima o nā pulelehua, nā ʻaka, nā pepa bele, a me ka milo. E loaʻa mau iaʻu kahi hua me ia a me nā ʻāpana o ka toast, me ʻehiku mau kīʻaha kope. He mea nui iaʻu e ala ai i ke kakahiaka! Ma hope o ka hoʻomaʻamaʻa, e hoʻoluliluli wau i kahi protein me kahi o 40 gram o ka protein, a laila kahi pā protein no kahi meaʻai māmā. A laila ma hope o kekahi mau hola, e ʻai wau i ka ʻaina awakea ʻo ka salakeke nui loa me ka umauma moa piha, a me kahi meaʻai māmā e like me ka jerky pipi. Nui ka protein i nā manawa āpau! No ka ʻaina ahiahi, ʻewalu a ʻewalu mau auneke steak kaʻu ma mua, ma muli o koʻu ʻano, kekahi broccoli a i ʻole kaʻuala i hoʻomoʻa ʻia. A laila e hoʻoluliluli wau i ka protein ma hope o ka ʻaina awakea a ʻo kekahi ma mua o ka hiamoe. Ke hoʻāʻo nei wau e hele ma waena o 175 gram o ka protein i kēlā me kēia lā. ʻO ia kaʻu mea e pono ai no ke kūkulu hou ʻana i kēlā mau ʻiʻo e wāwahi mau ana. I kekahi manawa e kī aku au ma kahi o 200 gram. ʻAʻole hiki i ka nui o ka protein ke hana ʻino iā ʻoe-e hemo wale ia mai kaʻu ʻōnaehana!

Helehelena: Loaʻa iā ʻoe kahi mantra hoʻoikaika kino a i ʻole philosophy?

AB:Nānā maikaʻi, maikaʻi, hoʻolei maikaʻi. Inā maikaʻi wau, e hilinaʻi wau, a laila e hana nui wau. ʻO nā mea āpau e pili ana i ka hilinaʻi iā ʻoe iho a me ka hilinaʻi iā ʻoe iho. No laila ma mua o ka hele ʻana i kahi hoʻokūkū e kau wau i kaʻu mea hoʻonani a kau i kekahi mau sparkles i koʻu lauoho no ka mea makemake wau e nānā maikaʻi noʻu iho. Ua ulu au ma Las Vegas, no laila makemake mau au i ka nani a me ke kaikamahine a me ka ʻaʻahu. Ke ʻike lohi nei wau i ka hoʻokūkū ʻana o kaʻu mau hoʻokūkū i kā lākou mea hoʻonani i kahi pāʻani hou aʻe a kau i kahi hilahila.

Aia kekahi manaʻo no kekahi manawa inā ʻoe he ʻaʻa a he wahine pono ʻoe e like me ke kāne. ʻOi loa inā ʻoe he mea hoʻolei hāmare, manaʻo ka poʻe he ʻumi kā mākou! No. He wahine mākou! He nani mākou! Wela mākou! Manaʻo wau e hoʻonāwaliwali nei i ka nui o nā wahine mai ke komo ʻana i nā haʻuki like ʻole. I kēia manawa, ke hoʻomaka nei nā wahine e puka a like, 'Hiki iā ʻoe ke kīpē a lilo i ʻaʻa ʻoi loa ma ka honua a maikaʻi nō naʻe i ka lole.' A aloha nui wau i kēlā.

Ua hoʻoponopono ʻia kēia nīnauele.
