Episode 2350 – On this Wednesday’s show Vinnie Tortorich and Gina Grad talk about relationships, total respect for Richard Simmons, protein amounts, and more.
TOTAL RESPECT
- Vinnie tells Gina how he and Serena are shooting new content for Vinnie’s YouTube channel. (2:00)
- This segues to chatting about relationships, a few celebrities, as well as a certain client that helped Vinnie through a difficult time.
- And this leads to a discussion about Richard Simmons. (13:30)
- Richard has recently left the public eye, but Vinnie and Gina share several memories about him.
- Richard had his own challenges but has been so positive, always wanting to help others.
- Vinnie explains why he has total respect for Richard, who is a fitness icon and was able to reach a mainstream audience.
- Even though Richard has become a multi-millionaire over the years, he would still do events like mall tours, because he wanted to connect and relate to others.
- He always included everyone.
- Gina asks a question about protein and what is the “recommended” amount. (27:30)
- Vinnie addresses “bro-science” and what the real answer is, and it depends on several factors.
- There is an accurate way to determine lean body mass, but it’s not the BMI chart.
- DEXA scans are your most accurate read for finding out body composition.
- Check out Gina’s book My Extra Mom. She also co-hosts with Bryan Bishop for @LAmag on the Bryan & Gina Show, which you can find on any podcast platform and on YouTube.
