Canceling Out Your Efforts

  • Vinnie has opinions about TRT, especially in men over 50. (6:00)
    • He’s been taking creatine and increasing his protein ratio.
  • Curb expectations when starting low-carb: initial weight loss can be rapid due to water loss from inflammation, but it will slow. (24:00)
  • Vinnie doesn’t like to judge other trainers, but…. (27:00)
    • He witnesses BS bro-science all the time at the gym and gives an example of it.
    • Be careful of bro-science; you don’t want to be canceling out your efforts.
  • Vinnie posted on social media about a study comparing fat burning to carb burning in elite athletes. (35:00)
  • It has been shown that high sugar diets can affect memory. (53:29)
  • There is a lot of bro-science and “hacks” out there, but it all boils down to the fact that none of it helps if you’re not taking control of your diet and exercise. Consistency matters.
