AGE IS JUST A NUMBER

  • From the Baton Rouge area
    • Vinnie could tell by his accent and phone number
  • Former Air Force guy
  • 54 years old and a boxer!
    • Boxing is all adrenaline
    • Age is largely but a number
    • Old does not mean you shouldn’t keep doing things like the sports you love
    • Part of why Glenn still does it is because he still can!
  • He has had several consults with Vinnie
  • Glenn wants to stay active and inspire others to stay active
  • Keep the weight off and what you can do is pretty limitless
    • Many of Vinnie’s high school and college classmates gained TONS of weight
      • This partly made him exercise more because he didn’t want this for him
      • Glenn had a similar experience
        • Gained a lot of weight when he stopped playing rugby
          • Had trouble reaching down to tie his shoes and he hated it
  • Did the ‘good’ low fat thing and exercise and still gained weight
    • Wasn’t eating fat, but his trigs were still up – this did not make sense to him
    • The “conventional wisdom” did not work — switched over to Low Carb
    • Found NSNG because he was researching
      • Could feel that the low fat wasn’t working and was wrong
      • Knew he had to get off the sugar
  • Low carb/NSNG revolutionized Glenn’s life
  • Glenn (and Vinnie) had to battle the Southern culture that says they ‘live to eat’
