VINNIE’S CHRISTMAS BEARD

  • Vinnie has always grown somewhat of a Christmas beard.
    • He used to grow it over Christmas break.
  • Now, he grows it from pre-Thanksgiving to post Christmas.
    • He’s considered keeping it year-round.
  • Fortunately, Serena likes the beard.
  • The rugged beard is good for Vinnie’s look!

BEING YOURSELF

  • Vinnie and Gina both looked to others in high school thinking “I want to be them.”
  • However, they were great and popular in their own right.
  • It’s tough for kids now, having to compare themselves to kids at school and on the internet.
    • Keep in mind, much of the time you are NOT comparing yourself to real people.
  • Make your hardest competition yourself!
  • All that matters is how YOU feel about yourself.
  • Know who you are, and work on being proud of yourself.

by Vinnie Tortorich

Episode 1652 – On this Saturday show, Katelyn Goodwin joins Vinnie and the two talk overcoming food pyramid indoctrination, vegan propaganda, silly documentaries, and more!

PLEASE SUPPORT OUR SPONSORS

KATELYN’S STORY

  • Katelyn found Vinnie through his book.
    • She found it on Amazon while looking for fitness and health books.
      • At first, she didn’t take it all in because she thought it was crazy.
  • She struggled to lose the last 10 to 15 lbs in her late 20s.
    • Katelyn had tried vegetarianism and other similar diets.
      • Vegan propaganda is so strong.
      • She switched to almond milk, vegan butter and the like.
      • The weight never really came off.
  • She’s a counselor in Department of Corrections in Rhode Island.

FOOD PYRAMID INDOCTRINATION

  • The food pyramid and what we’re taught as kids had really gripped her.
  • She had brain fog, lethargy, was often sore, and had other symptoms.
    • It turned out, she had a gluten allergy.
      • After she cut out gluten, her symptoms went away and she rediscovered Vinnie.
  • Then, she cut out sugar and grains and weaned herself off of artificial sweeteners and it started to make sense.
  • It was difficult to buy it because she was so convinced from a young age that fat would make her fat.
  • Once you start cooking real food, you don’t want the bread –– it no longer is “I can’t live without it.” It’s “I don’t want to live with it.”

NSNG® Foods Nut Butters & Zone 2 Benefits – Episode 1629

by Vinnie Tortorich

Episode 1629 – On this Monday show, Vinnie Tortorich and Anna Vocino talk stealing, muling drugs, Zone 2 benefits, the upcoming NSNG® Foods nut butters, Anna’s marinara, and answer some listener questions, and more!

PLEASE SUPPORT OUR SPONSORS

ZONE 2 BENEFITS

  • Many people ask why Zone 2 is better than Zone 3.
  • When you start hitting Zone 3 or 4, you’re not really burning fat, just sugar.
    • So, the issue with burning sugar is that your body *does* need a certain amount of sugar at a time.
      • You can get this with a lot of protein or some veggies, but why do this if it isn’t necessary?
  • The more exercise you do, the easier it’ll be for you to stay in Zone 2.

NSNG® FOODS NUT BUTTERS

  • We are going to have energizing butters, all NSNG®.
  • We use almond butter, coconut oil, and electrolytes from Pure Vitamin Club.
  • There are two flavors ––
    • The second has some Pure Coffee Club Honey Process coffee.
  • These butters have THE BEST ingredients around.
  • You’re getting everything you need as an athlete in this one product.
  • We are launching this with our NSNG® Summit.
    • Sign up for this FREE, LIVE Summit featuring tons of experts.

ANNA’S MARINARA

  • Anna is also coming out with a jarred marinara that is NSNG®!
  • This is one of the only ones that doesn’t have added sugar.
  • It has Villa Cappelli in it and is dairy free.
