Taking Responsibility For Your Eating – Episode 1959

by Vinnie Tortorich

Episode 1959 – On this Monday show, Vinnie Tortorich and Anna Vocino talk staying busy with phone consults and yard work, taking responsibility for your eating, Vinnie’s shakes, caffeine, and more.

PLEASE SUPPORT OUR SPONSORS

STAYING BUSY

  • Vinnie and Anna both stay busy.
  • Vinnie’s working on his last documentary, his companies, his PDF, this podcast, and he does phone consults several days a week––and, Vinnie makes sure to make time to work out and get outside.
  • In his ‘spare time,’ Vinnie has been putting in a lot of work on his and Serena’s new house. 
    • He’s on yard work now.

TAKING RESPONSIBILITY

  • If you don’t think you have time to ‘eat healthy,’ Vinnie bets you do.
    • Do you make your kids’ breakfast?
  • Go do your morning breakfast-preparing routine, and see how long it takes you.
    • Do it at a normal speed, but don’t count washing dishes.
      • Now, scramble some eggs the next morning for you and your kids and see how long that takes.
        • It will likely be comparable.
  • If making healthy food means waking up three or five minutes earlier, that will be worth it when you feel better.
  • We have to take responsibility for our decisions.
  • You CAN do this.
  • This lesson–of taking responsibility–should apply to everything you want to do that might feel a little out of reach right now because you’re busy.
  • You can also meal prep. 
    • Boil some eggs and put them in the fridge. Or make some bone broth.
      • When you pull these things out the next day, it’s faster than making cereal.

The Pre-Workout Myth – Episode 1955

by Vinnie Tortorich

Episode 1955 – On this Wednesday show, Andy Schreiber and Vinnie Tortorich talk the Pre-workout myth, Tuesday and Thursday Tips, “keto” products, and more.

PLEASE SUPPORT OUR SPONSORS

THE PRE-WORKOUT MYTH

  • Pre-workout is a product made to be sold.
  • It isn’t necessary, and brands do not guarantee that it will help––because it might not.
  • Often, pre-workouts are filled with crap you do not want to consume.
  • If you want a little pick-me-up before you workout, try having some coffee or some other natural and healthy ergogenics.
    • Coffee is good for you and is more guaranteed to have a positive effect, in Vinnie’s opinion.
  • Vinnie loves it before aerobic activity.
    • Today, he had some before he rowed.

“KETO” FOOD

  • People slap keto on something even if it’s filled with crap.
  • Vinnie sees all of these kinds of products everywhere–at conventions, at stores, and more.
  • These products are stealing good intentions.
  • This is a huge problem in the keto community, and something to be aware of.
  • You do NOT need to be in ketosis to be NSNG® (and vice versa).

Money-Driven Talking Heads – Episode 1954

by Vinnie Tortorich

Episode 1954 – On this Monday episode, Vinnie Tortorich and co-host Anna Vocino talk money-driven talking heads, sticks and stones, his Fat Doc 3, phone consults, and more.

PLEASE SUPPORT OUR SPONSORS

MONEY-DRIVEN TALKING HEADS

  • There are talking heads on the TV and internet that talk nonsense.
  • Sanjay Gupta is, in Vinnie’s opinion, one of them.
  • His opinions tend to be poorly backed.
  • For example, there is weird support for sugar by some of these talking heads.
    • Follow the money, see where it leads.
  • Vinnie tries to break down people like this and more in his new documentary.
    • He’s tearing down everyone who is propagating BS.

STICKS AND STONES

  • Vinnie thinks we need to go back to sticks and stones.
  • Don’t let words affect you so much!
  • If words piss you off, use them to motivate you.

Unhealthy Vegan Food & Extreme Sports – Episode 1952

by Vinnie Tortorich

Episode 1952 – On this Saturday show, the wonderful Lindsey Paul joins Vinnie for a second appearance to discuss her sport–extreme long range shooting–and her new world record. The two also talk unhealthy vegan food, Olympic sports, and more.

PLEASE SUPPORT OUR SPONSORS

EXTREME LONG RANGE SHOOTING

  • Lindsey has been a real fan of this way of eating and the podcast for a year.
    • She’s always avoided gluten because she’s always had some issues there.
  • Recently, she sent in $24.64 as a donation to keep this podcast running.
  • Vinnie was perplexed as to this amount.
  • She decided to donate this specific amount because at the time, 2,464 yards is the world record she set as an extreme long shooter.
    • Now, as of this past week, her (and THE) record is 2 miles!
    • She had three target impacts at this distance!
  • This is a very intense, complicated sport that takes incredible precision.
  • Check out her previous appearance here: Extreme Long Range Shooting – Episode 1927
    • https://vinnietortorich.com/2021/09/extreme-long-range-shooting-episode-1927/
  • Lindsey is an absolute competitor. 

UNHEALTHY VEGAN FOOD

  • Much of the food marketed toward vegans isn’t all it’s cracked out to be.
  • Vinnie’s third upcoming doc talks a lot about this.
    • It discusses companies like Beyond Burger and the like.
  • A lot of vegan food is plain unhealthy.
  • There are many overweight (and underweight) vegans.
  • Is it just coincidence that Cam Newton’s downfall coincided with his going vegan?
  • Vinnie has a hard time buying that vegans can build the same strength and fitness.

Supplement Scams, Genuine Sponsors, & More – Episode 1949

by Vinnie Tortorich

Episode 1949 – On this Monday show, Anna Vocino and Vinnie Tortorich talk creating content, genuine sponsors, the PDF, supplement scams, Starbucks craziness, and more.

PLEASE SUPPORT OUR SPONSORS

GENUINE SPONSORS

  • Vinnie and Anna have always wanted to give out good, free information.
  • To keep the show running, they’ve taken on sponsors.
  • Villa Cappelli has been a sponsor for many years.
  • They’ve been very picky about sponsors; Vinnie will only take money from people whose products he really believes in.
  • Vinnie will not be filling the Belcampo sponsorship slot.
    • Instead, he’ll give ads for products he believes in without sponsorship money.
  • Vinnie’s never going to tell you ‘you must by X for Y.’ Because that would be a lie.
  • This said, we do ask that if you are going to buy a cookbook or buy vitamins or coffee, that you do it from us.
    • That keeps this whole project running.

SUPPLEMENT SCAMS

  • Vinnie and Anna play a new iteration of ‘real or fake.’
  • These products sound ridiculous because they are.
  • Don’t spend money on something that seems to good (or too weird) to be true. It probably is.
  • They’re algae and chemicals and the like. 
  • You can’t get to anything real in these products.
    • In this sense, they’re scamming you! You can’t even figure out the truth of them, and they’re usually fairly expensive.
  • Take care of your diet, don’t go down this road.

Gina’s Wedding & Food Hangovers – Episode 1948

by Vinnie Tortorich

Episode 1948 – On this Sunday School episode, the newly married Gina Grad joins Vinnie and the two talk more good TV, Gina’s wedding, food hangovers after “cheat” days, and more. 

PLEASE SUPPORT OUR SPONSORS

MORE GOOD TV

  • Since the last Sunday School episode, Gina hasn’t started Loudermilk.
  • This Sunday, Gina talks a lot about Squid Game.
    • She was on this show before others!
  • Ted Lasso is still on her re-watch list because of Vinnie & Serena. 
    • Vinnie and Serena watch Ted Lasso religiously.
    • This is a phenomenon!
    • Vinnie calls it ‘darling.’

GINA’S WEDDING

  • Vinnie attended Gina’s wedding a week or two ago.
  • The wedding was beautiful.
  • Gina wrote vows for Andy’s (her husband’s) son.
  • They took a mini honeymoon to Idyllwild, CA.

FOOD HANGOVERS

  • During her honeymoon, Gina didn’t eat particularly well.
  • She decided to ‘reward’ herself with food.
    • This is not the right way to think about it.
    • She didn’t feel great after doing this.
  • Over this time, she realized she simply couldn’t eat as much as she used to.
  • The next day, Gina was nauseous and depressed (not from shame).
    • It was like a hangover.
