: Episode 1911 - On this Friday show, Dr. Phil Maffetone joins Vinnie Tortorich to discuss his book, The Big Book of Endurance Training and Racing, Zone 2 and training slow, "odd" jobs, Mark Allen, and more. https://www.vinnietortorich.com/2021/08/endurance-training-racing-dr-phil-maffetone-episode-1911 PLEASE SUPPORT OUR SPONSORS Pure Vitamin Club Pure Coffee Club NSNG® Foods Belcampo Villa Cappelli "ODD" JOBS Vinnie and Dr. Maffetone have both largely blazed their own paths. They don't have some 'job title,' or anything like a 9-5. The whole concept doesn't appeal to Dr. Maffetone. He worked in a clinic for some time, worked with athletes, corporate clients, and more. But now, he marches to the beat of his own drum even more. He can't really explain his job. Similarly, neither Vinnie nor Dr. Maffetone know what they would do if they were ever to retire. Our brains can always keep going and growing. We're thirsty for knowledge and learning, and we should all strive to stay engaged one way or another. ENDURANCE TRAINING AND RUNNING Dr. Maffetone has been on the show before. Angriest Trainer 326: One-on-One Phil Maffetone He is the man who came up with the easy Zone 2 math. He's an expert on Zone 2 exercise! You can check out his website, linked above, for training and the like. Vinnie LOVES and would highly recommend his book. It's essentially a basic training bible. Dr. Maffetone has had these concepts since the 1970s and essentially worked with a lot of athletes as experimental subjects. He looked at food, stress, and exercise. Think of this: train slow!!! Going at your own pace is the most important thing. WATCH THIS EPISODE ON YOUTUBE FAT DOC 2 IS AVAILABLE ON iTUNES and AMAZON Please also share it with family and friends!

: Episode 1910 - On this Wednesday show, Andy Schreiber and Vinnie Tortorich talk intense ultramarathons, Margaret Cho, the Las Vegas Keto Expo, and more. Https://www.vinnietortorich.com/2021/08/intense-ultramarathons-episode-1910 PLEASE SUPPORT OUR SPONSORS Pure Vitamin Club Pure Coffee Club NSNG® Foods INTENSE ULTRAMARATHONS Serena runs ultras. She just did her first in Virginia. This was a 30 mile race with 7500 feet of elevation. However, it runs like a 50 miler because it is so difficult. Check it out: it's called Jarman's Gap. Many quit--even the most fit--but Serena finished all five laps. Serena is training for additional races. Luckily, the conditions likely won't be as brutal as they were when she ran Jarman's. It was hot as hell, and there was an incredibly intense thunderstorm. LAS VEGAS KETO EXPO We will be there. Check out our Ultra Fat product there. Next year, we will be at additional events.

: Episode 1909 - On this Monday show, Anna Vocino and Vinnie Tortorich talk recent heat, Jane Fonda, fitness for children, success as a fitness trainer, and more. Https://www.vinnietortorich.com/2021/08/success-as-a-fitness-trainer-more-episode-1909 PLEASE SUPPORT OUR SPONSORS Pure Vitamin Club Pure Coffee Club NSNG® Foods Belcampo Villa Cappelli FITNESS FOR CHILDREN Vinnie wanted to do a show on fitness for children. In part, he wanted to bring on great athletes (especially young ones) to inspire kids. You, as a kid, can do this, too! Starting healthy habits like exercise at a young age is so important. FITNESS TRAINER It can be difficult to become successful as a trainer. Vinnie became successful because he was attentive, relentless, and did it for a long period of time. Think of Radu or Gilad, for example. As with everything, many fail at first. Anna feels this in the voice-over and voice-acting world! Beware of people who get their certificate for personal training online and quickly. And make sure the person knows what they're talking about and tapers the training to you.

: Episode 1908 -- On this Sunday School episode, Gina Grad joins Vinnie Tortorich to talk blood glucose, ketone level testing, strict NSNG®, cholesterol and doctors, leg presses, and more. https://vinnietortorich.com/2021/08/ketone-level-testing-episode-1908 PLEASE SUPPORT OUR SPONSORS Pure Vitamin Club Pure Coffee Club NSNG® Foods KETONE LEVEL TESTING Gina has been strict NSNG® for some time now. For Gina, this means no dairy. She wanted to know about her blood glucose and ketone levels. So, she got a home tester. She has the Precision Extra glucose monitor which can check both blood glucose and ketone levels. You need very little blood with this machine. It requires a quick and relatively painless finger prick. Tip: try pricking the side of your finger for fewer nerves. Anything on the scale means you're in ketosis. The higher number, the better.

: Episode 1907 - On this Saturday show, Cassandra Taylor joins Vinnie to discuss exercise without healthy eating, Cassandra's incredible weight loss journey, failed calorie restriction diets, powerlifting records, and more. Https://www.vinnietortorich.com/2021/08/exercise-without-healthy-eating-episode-1907 PLEASE SUPPORT OUR SPONSORS Pure Vitamin Club Pure Coffee Club NSNG® Foods EXERCISE WITHOUT HEALTHY EATING Exercise by itself is a poor way to lose weight. If you have a trainer but are not eating low carb, stop paying your trainer. Cassandra had this experience -- she was obese and her trainer would say she was strong, but that wouldn't actually help. All they said to her was "eat healthy at home." They wanted her to eat low fat and calorie restrict, but this did not work for her. These diets stop working when you stop paying attention. At her heaviest, she weighed over 400 lbs at 5'10" in her 30s. She avoided the doctor because she didn't want to hear what they had to say. SEEING THE NUTRITIONAL LIGHT Prior to getting bypass surgery, she decided to try NSNG®. She figured she had nothing to lose at this point. She didn't think it would work...but quickly, she lost over 20 lbs. In the first year, it was over 100 lbs! Cassandra has more to lose, but she's around 170 lbs lost now. She's a huge powerlifter now! She even holds state records. 396 in deadlift, and 382 in squat are her PRs. For Cassandra, NSNG® is a tool. It's her center and her norm and she comes back to it even after falling off a bit. FAT DOC 2 IS AVAILABLE ON iTUNES and AMAZON Please also share it with family and friends!

Whitney, scuba, and more. https://vinnietortorich.com/2021/08/travel-preferences-pizza-crusts-episode-1906 PLEASE SUPPORT OUR SPONSORS Pure Vitamin Club Pure Coffee Club NSNG® Foods Belcampo Villa Cappelli PIZZA CRUST Anna does several different crusts. She has done cauliflower, fathead crust, and sausage crust -- sausage crust is really easy to cook at home! Vinnie doesn't believe in using bread substitutes too often, but these can be good when you really have that craving or your kids want pizza. TRAVEL PREFERENCES Vinnie and Anna both really like traveling. They're both Italian. Anna finally got her dad to visit Italy later in life. Vinnie's family still hasn't been. For some people, traveling abroad isn't the thing. Some people like cruises or resorts -- it's all about finding what you love and doing that! Vinnie suggests you do something where you can be active and go somewhere out of your comfort zone.

: Episode 1905 - On this Wednesday show, Andy Schreiber and Vinnie Tortorich talk Ultra Salt, hydrating for motor skills, reversing type 2 diabetes, CBD products, and more. Https://www.vinnietortorich.com/2021/08/hydrating-for-motor-skills-episode-1905 PLEASE SUPPORT OUR SPONSORS Pure Vitamin Club Pure Coffee Club NSNG® Foods HYDRATING FOR MOTOR SKILLS Vinnie has recently realized the importance of hydration and motor skills. He noticed that he and others would start falling behind after a couple rounds of skeet shooting, out in the heat. Now, he takes Ultra Salt as if he were prepping for another physical activity, and it's really helped. His scores now remain constant instead of dip as he is out in the sun for longer periods of time. When you get a little dehydrated, it can affect your eyesight. Vinnie thinks this could be it. CBD PRODUCTS Vinnie uses this sparingly, three or four times a week, for his pain. It does not have THC in it. He has done his research to find the high quality stuff. He kissed a lot of frogs to find the right stuff. While it doesn't work as well as Advil or other painkillers, Vinnie likes it because it doesn't have adverse affects on his liver like NSAIDs. This is NOT an ad -- this is just something Vinnie has used with varying success for his pain. CBD gummies are not a cure for things like Type 2 diabetes. Plus, these gummies have sugar. Avoid them!

The people she's spoken with have simply said she's not the type of person who can keep losing weight while eating dairy. For some people, weight loss is difficult if you're still consuming dairy/lactose! But... cheese! Yes, while it can be hard at first, just give it a try. Gina goes for the salami and vegetables now instead of the hunk of cheese. Vinnie isn't a big dairy consumer, either. It's very easy to go overboard on dairy. You can add coconut oil to your coffee instead of heavy whipping cream -- but be careful not to eat too much or your stomach may turn against you!

: Episode 1904 - On this Monday show, Vinnie Tortorich and Anna Vocino talk karaoke, hard knocks, hormones & junk food, alcohol, and more. Https://www.vinnietortorich.com/2021/08/hard-knocks-hormones-junk-food-episode-1904 PLEASE SUPPORT OUR SPONSORS Pure Vitamin Club Pure Coffee Club NSNG® Foods Belcampo Villa Cappelli HARD KNOCKS Hard knocks can do two things: (1) make people want to quit and have a defeatist mentality, or (2) fire people up. Vinnie and Anna have had their share of difficulties. However, they don't say 'woe is me.' They use this to motivate them -- anger can be a good motivator if you cultivate it! Neither Vinnie nor Anna found success easily. They both still have naysayers but they keep fighting. HORMONES & JUNK FOOD Vinnie did a consult recently with a woman who put the weight she lost back on. She couldn't stop eating junk because people kept putting it in front of her. At work, for example, junk is available. If you're eating junk, it's not because you're weak. It's because you may not have the innate capacity to avoid junk! Once we have one oreo, our hormones kick in and it's so difficult to stop. It's all about training your body and becoming fat adapted which can help get your hormones in check. Ghrelin, leptin, and insulin are the drivers that we have to get under control. WATCH THIS EPISODE ON YOUTUBE FAT DOC 2 IS AVAILABLE ON iTUNES and AMAZON Please also share it with family and friends!

: Episode 1902 - On this Saturday show, Jill Rieder joins Vinnie to talk the California exodus, stress-induced binge eating, weight fluctuations, getting out of the house, and more. Https://www.vinnietortorich.com/2021/08/binge-eating-weight-fluctuations-episode-1902 PLEASE SUPPORT OUR SPONSORS Pure Vitamin Club Pure Coffee Club NSNG® Foods JILL'S MOVE Jill, like Vinnie, used to live in California, and moved away prior to the pandemic. She's appreciated more flexibility during the pandemic in her new state. There's so much to do where she lives! Tons to do outdoors, and her neighbors are all a phone call away. BINGE EATING Jill lost roughly 100 lbs. She's gained ~60 lbs back. Within the past year, she's gained 40, lost 30, and gained 30 back. Sometimes she will have binge moments. This is what has hurt her over the past years. Jill binge eats when she is so stressed. Her job is intensely demanding, and life can become too much. Eating can be a dopamine hit, and that is what is scary and challenging. People can be dismissive when you're overweight, and Jill feels she's at the point where people are dismissive again. This adds to her stress. GETTING OUT OF THE HOUSE Getting out and about is so important. Schedule time to make this happen, even if it's for 15 minutes. Go out for a meal, if you can, or a walk!
