Staying In The Zone

  • Vinnie shares a story about getting some differences in strength and fitness in different activities. (5:00)
    • He shares how even very fit people can struggle in activities they don’t do often.
    • There is a way to strengthen your cardio and boost mitochondria to increase endurance. (15:00)
    • Zone 2 training can make a big difference.
    • Zone 1 is up to 69% of your aerobic capacity. An example would be a light walk or gardening.
    • Zone 2 is 70-79% of aerobic capacity.
    • Zone 3 is 80-89% of aerobic capacity.
    • Zone 4 is 90-100% aerobic capacity.
    • Zone 2 is a favorite because it’s the range at which your body is still burning fat.
    • HIIT training typically relies on sugar-burning.
    • Calculate your Zone 2 by taking 180 – your age +/- 5 (depending on your activity level).
    • If you are a sedentary person, subtract 5. If you are generally active, you can add the 5.
  • Vinnie talks to a lot of obese people; however, they shouldn’t worry about Zone 2 just yet. Focus on getting yourself to just move and do what you can do. (28:00)
    • Wearing a heart rate monitor can help.

  • Getting into grocery stores is an interesting thing. (41:00)
    • She is trying to get the word out on her sauces, especially what Puttanesca is. 
      • Puttanesca is a wonderful flavor with kalamata olives and capers for an extra savory experience!
  • She is running a special deal where you can get cash back from her. Listen for the details! (45:30)
