Nothing Works Like Hard Work

  • Today’s episode talks about aerobics, but Vinnie has some other things first. (2:30)
    • He feels like there are a lot of doctors saying stuff just to be controversial and get more followers.
    • You need both anaerobic and aerobic exercise!
    • A lower resting heart rate (low 50s) is a good goal—but it takes aerobics to get there.
    • Lean muscle mass has everything to do with longevity. (6:30)
  • What does “fit” Mean? (11:00)
    • It depends on your goals and what you are prepping for.
    • Vinnie and Anna discuss “Leg Day” options. (13:00)
  • Vinnie has been watching “The Family Stallone” show. (15:00)
    • He shares what he loves about the show and the Stallone brothers.

Fitness Q & A

  • Anna shares some fitness questions. (28:30)
    • For even more details, go back to podcast episode 2448 for NSNG® 101: Cardio Training.
    • What are some exercises for shoulder and knee pain?
      • It depends on the point of pain, but Vinnie gives some generalized suggestions.
    • Anna shares some shoulder concerns she has. (36:30)
      • She shares some pain she’s been having. (To get the full effect, you may need to refer to the episode video.)
    • There’s a question about ketosis and gluconeogenesis. (41:00)
      • They are not the same thing.
  • There is nothing you can eat with impunity, even protein and fats.
    • There are many people across the internet who claim to be low-carb experts.
      • However, they confuse the message with the constant “hacks” they recommend.
    • If there is too much gluconeogenesis, it means protein intake is too high. (44:30)
  • Anna shares some observations about GLP-1 and the state of ketosis. (48:00)
    • Ketosis is nature’s GLP-1!
    • But GLP-1 (semaglutide) has horrible side effects, like slowing down how digestion works.
  • Vinnie will always tell you the truth.
  • Anna’s upcoming Eat Happy Italian book is on the way.
