Https://www.vinnietortorich.com/2021/02/when-to-use-ankle-weights-episode-1778 PLEASE SUPPORT OUR SPONSORS Pure Vitamin Club Pure Coffee Club NSNG® Foods WHEN TO USE ANKLE WEIGHTS Ankle weights are only really goo for walking. And, they're only really good to change your gait for lots of people. They can be good for some quick strength training. Vinnie used them to prepare for his mountain hiking. Glacier boots are heavy, and when you add crampons there is more resistance, so he prepared himself for that with these weights. However, he was really precise to make sure the weight was right. Vinnie did this on the stair machine, still staying in Zone 2. If you use these, use them for a specific purpose with the exact weight you need in the exact way that will train you for what you're preparing for. Having a specific process

: Episode 1774 – On this Monday show, Vinnie Tortorich and Anna Vocino talk old radio, rollerskating, NSNG® grocery shopping, avoiding sweeteners, listener questions, and more. Https://www.vinnietortorich.com/2021/02/nsng-grocery-shopping-episode-1774 PLEASE SUPPORT OUR SPONSORS Pure Vitamin Club Pure Coffee Club NSNG® Foods Villa Cappelli Belcampo NSNG® GROCERY SHOPPING You don't need fancy cuts. Get normal cuts! You don't need organic, too. Usually, cheaper cuts of meat also have more fat, which is good for this lifestyle. Things with bones will usually be cheaper. Bones are good for flavor, marrow, and to make broth later on. Get a whole chicken! Buy what you can afford that is physically available to you. Dairy usually lasts around a week past its expiration date. So do eggs! For meat, eat it right away or just freeze it. You can eat this way on a budget! PROCESSED STEVIA First, avoid processed foods generally. Also, stevia is not good! Stevia here is highly processed, as are these other crazy sweeteners.

Https://www.vinnietortorich.com/2021/02/big-tackles-bad-monkfruit-episode-1773 PLEASE SUPPORT OUR SPONSORS Pure Vitamin Club Pure Coffee Club NSNG® Foods BIG TACKLES When Vinnie played football, leading with your helmet and the like was par for the course. If you knocked someone out, you were applauded. Tackles were made at full speed. So many things that are illegal now used to be normal. It is much better for brains that this is no longer the way things happen. Now, people get stressed when we see a big tackle that keeps someone down. Vinnie thinks football today is more fun and imaginative, and safer to boot! COMEDIANS For people like comedians, or others who are always on the road, have trouble losing weight. It can be difficult constantly traveling and not having time to meal prep, etc. Many people know they have weight

Scott asks some training and fitness questions, and Vinnie provides important advice (that can apply to your general journey, or your triathlon pursuit). A SIMPLE LIFESTYLE What made NSNG® so attractive to Scott is that it was easy. He realized if he had to do keto and t

However, Anna and Vinnie would recommend 60 days of strict eating before having a life into living day. There are plenty of yummy snacks you can still make for the Super Bowl. If you're eating dairy, have some cheese. If you're eating meat, throw some meat on the grill. Anna has lots of recipes on her website for this day.

They eat a lot of meat, but they are also eating tons more seafood. It's delicious and affordable in Louisiana. DANGERS OF WINE Wine is not regulated like the food industry is. Notice how you never find a nutritional label on wine. They can basically say whatever they want. When it comes down to it, wine is just sugar. If you're going to drink alcohol, have unflavored spirits with some carbonat

Tiger Woods is partly so amazing because his family was so intense. Having a life about perfection from a young age is so stressful. For many kids, it does not work –– it makes life miserable for kids. Don't push your kids to be perfect; push them to be happy and their best. A similar thing is expecting your kid to play through injuries. This isn't good for the body or the mind. FAT DOC 2 IS AVAILABLE ON iTUNES and AMAZON Please also share it with family and friends!

Right before this, he was probably in lower 260s. He and his wife had tried Weight Watchers but that was unsuccessful. Before he started low carb, his energy was down, his glucose was way up, and his doctor started talking about BP medicine and statins. He realized something needed to change, especially for his kids. Brian is living proof you can't outrun a bad diet. When he

None of his patients ever died by suicide. He believes in Surgical Empathy. SURGICAL EMPATHY For many people who are duty-bound, like health-care workers and military, it can be difficult to deal with trauma and fear. Adrenaline comes into play.
