Fitness Confidential With Vinnie Tortorich

Vinnie goes on a double rant against a bad Starbucks worker and a bad 24 Hour Fitness trainer, but only one rant has a happy ending. Vinnie and Anna also dispute Amanda Beard & body dysmorphia, and a quite comprehensive discussions on Abs/Pilates/BOSU/Core ensues. A shout out to www.VillaCappelli.com olive oil is also in the mix.

Vinnie realizes Facebook debates are from the devil. Anna asks Vinnie to tell us everything he can about the history of running, running vs. jogging, and whether or not those Vibram "Five-Fingers" are worth the cash. Christopher McDougall's "Born To Run" also gets a shout-out.

Vinnie illuminates the world of Ultrasports while Anna lays down the facts about Gluten Free. Vinnie's fitness background, a yoga debate, and an obese cat are also discussed. Also mentioned: "Wheat Belly" by William Davis, and "Why We Get Fat & What To Do About It" by Gary Taubes.

Vinnie and Anna launch the podcast by discussing how the health & fitness industry has been less than helpful in getting Americans in shape. Topics discussed are The China Study, Peter Attia, Rich Roll, Dr. Lustig, and why exactly Vinnie is America's ANGRIEST trainer. https://vinnietortorich.com/2012/05/podcast-episode-1/
