GLP1s can be helpful for morbidly obese people, but people who are not obese shouldn’t be on them. Recent photos of certain celebrities show muscle wasting, which can lead to being fragile and long-term damage. Vinnie has concerns about GLP1s over the long term. What are some definitions of perimenopause, menopause, and post menopause? (27:30) The gut is important for hormonal health because it helps break down hormones for use in the body. Vinnie shares a story about his Mom and why the idea of hormones doesn’t always sit well with him. (32:00) There is a difference between birth control pills and the bioidentical hormones of today. Hormones play a significant role in multiple organ systems, including the heart, bones, and brain. Is testosterone replacement necessary for men or women? (44:00) You still have to lead a healthy lifestyle; hormone replacement isn’t a band-aid for a bad lifestyle. Mitochondrial health also plays a big role. (49:00) Sleep is foundational to your metabolic health as well. (54:00) Vinnie asks about DHEA and whether supplementation is beneficial.

(6:00) It is basically anything that enhances athletic performance. There are also “ergonomic” aids specific to equipment. Ergogenic aids are not always worth the packaging they are in. (12:30) However, consuming meat and eggs is ideal for getting protein. There are various other forms of protein powder, but they still aren’t as good as meat and eggs. (17:00) Some clinical trials use injected forms rather than ingested forms. (20:30) There has recently been a lot of talk about NAD (Nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide). (25:00) The reality is, we don’t fully know the efficacy of these things. Two ergogenic substances we know are helpful for performance are coffee and creatine monohydrate. (30:00) SARMS and peptides. (39:00) A new claim about GLP-1s is that they cause scurvy, which is typically a vitamin C deficiency. SARMS (selective androgen receptor modulator) and steroids are different. (41:00) The reality is that the boring way works. (52:00) Vinnie addresses a recent issue with UltraSalt.

(14:00) Anna and Vinnie have recorded several “NSNG 101” episodes to get you started, along with the NSNG® e-book, available for purchase Does quitting sugar have to be done “cold turkey”, or can it be done slowly? (16:00) Another question: Why is whole wheat bread a “joke”? (35:15) The average person who is not metabolically broken can typically have bread or pasta on occasion and may not be affected by them. (35:30) However, if you are metabolically broken, you can’t afford to eat carbs. (36:30) For example, Vinnie has had leukemia, so he is motivated to avoid most carbs. Dr. Thomas Seyfried is an advocate of this approach because it has potential in aiding in the treatment of cancer. (37:00) Reminder—it’s OK to be uncomfortable—it always is when you are trying to learn new habits. Don’t be afraid to establish new habits simply because it may be uncomfortable for a few days.

Bang for Your Buck - Episode 2770
Episode 2770 - Vinnie Tortorich and Chris Shaffer discuss getting the most bang for your buck when doing cardio and strength training, and more. https://vinnietortorich.com/2026/03/bang-for-your-buck-episode-2770 PLEASE SUPPORT OUR SPONSORS YOU CAN WATCH THIS EPISODE ON YOUTUBE - Vinnie's workout videos are available to purchase!

TO PURCHASE VINNIE'S WORKOUT VIDEOS, CLICK THIS LINK: Bang for Your Buck Vinnie had a consult with a woman focused on ultra-running who trains hard. However, the harder she trains, the harder it becomes to succeed. (2:45) Vinnie (and other coaches she has hired) has told her she’s training too hard. She needs to focus on what she’s doing when she’s *not* in the game. (14:00) He uses his own training history as an example. Optimal training happens in Zone 2, low and slow. (21:00) Training with a planned “down” schedule helps your body recover better and build endurance. (27:00) The process is similar when doing anaerobic exercises (weight training). (28:45) It makes sense to scale up cardio, then bring it back down, but how does that work for strength training? (31:50) Vinnie’s workouts follow a periodization plan, which allows for proper recovery between workouts. What should people be doing on their “rest” days? (37:00) Doing aerobics, like a good walk, is “active rest.” Mobility exercises are an option as well. Pilates is good for strength, but it also works the body differently, so adjusting Pilates workouts may be necessary to accommodate weight-training workouts. Meaning, you don’t want to focus on the same muscle groups two days in a row. (38:00) Vinnie advises what to do on your “off” days to get the most bang for your buck. (43:00) You can usually find used equipment on places like Facebook Marketplace. Interval training is also a good addition. (47:00) He explains what a “four by four” is, which is a form of HIIT (high-intensity interval training).

(20:00) There may have been nuance involved in measurement, but it was still an impressive outcome. Training or lifting “until failure” isn’t for everyone—you need a partner who can spot you and guide you. (33:00) They discuss what exactly “failure” is.

Episode 2766 - Vinnie Tortorich and Anna Vocino discuss stopping food noise while being surrounded by processed foods, diet noise trends, and more. https://vinnietortorich.com/2026/02/stopping-food-noise-episode-2766 PLEASE SUPPORT OUR SPONSORS YOU CAN WATCH THIS EPISODE ON YOUTUBE - Vinnie's workout videos are available to purchase! Choose from a 2-day, 4-day, or 6-day workout–or buy all three at a discount! TO PURCHASE VINNIE'S WORKOUT VIDEOS, CLICK THIS LINK: Stopping Food Noise Today’s topic is the conversation around “food noise.” (3:30) The term has gained traction since GLP-1s became more popular. "Counting culture" has also contributed—people seek ways to accommodate unhealthy foods. (5:00) They discuss popular snack foods, cravings, and weight gain. The best thing you can do is not bring those types of food into the house. They share stories about ice cream and eating it on rare occasions. (16:00) If you are going to do “Life Into Living,” save it for something truly good, not some dumb junk food. For example, have a gelato when you are in Italy. (19:00) Important note: If you want to stop food noise, do not eat the food that causes it. (22:00) Processed foods are meant to trigger cravings and addiction. When you switch to a low-carb diet, the food cravings often lessen over time and can even completely go away. (23:00) Going low-carb naturally mimics the effects of GLP-1 without side effects. Food has become political rather than just food. (31:00) Various diets have also become a type of food noise. People labeling themselves have gained an almost religious fervor. Subsidized crops are used as filler in processed foods; as a result, real, whole foods are more expensive. (35:00) They discuss Instacart and its impact on in-store grocery prices. (37:50) They discuss money, time, resources, and goals to eat healthy, quick meals. (41:00) Start doing things yourself and stop mailing it out to everyone else.

(2:30) He is the president of Alphacat Consulting and focuses on personal growth and authentic leadership, with extensive expertise in navigating both professional and personal transformation. The Hard-Hard is your “Why”: what is the physical, emotional, spiritual goal, and working towards it. What does Bobby have as examples for what “Easy-Hard” means? (9:30) Bobby describes his health journey not just for weight loss but for overall wellness. (17:00) People are often afraid of hard things, and at the other end of the spectrum, others think that if you’re not suffering, you’re not working hard enough. (20:00) There is meaning in the middle: struggle doesn’t need to mean suffering. Finding your why is important, but not for the reason of “keeping up with the Joneses.” They discuss the meaning of “Riding the Tiger.” (26:00) Vinnie prefers to be active because it helps open his mind to new ideas. (37:00) The longer you wait to start something, the harder it is to start at all, and the delay gets longer. (41:00) They discuss a type of “divine intervention.” You have to find your own rhythm. (46:00) Don’t buy into anyone else’s dogma. (47:30) They discuss self-talk, beliefs, and visualization. (53:00) Don’t let the world get in your way.

(4:00) Vinnie loves the 4-day routine. (13:00) It includes both “to failure” days and less-intense days that are still effective workouts. This allows you some flexibility. Childhood playgrounds of a couple of decades ago are very different than today’s equipment. (18:00) Your body adapts over time; however, Vinnie explains that flexibility is built into the workout. (28:00) Life gets in the way, and missing a workout once or twice every 3 months or so won’t be a problem. But if you miss more than that, you will not see the results you want. What about ab exercises? (33:15) Vinnie only does abs on pull days or leg days. The Winter Olympics are on, and this leads to talking about the sport of Curling. (38:00) The biggest mistake a person can make with these workouts is *not* doing them. (46:00) Find ways to make the most of your time. Use your time well. There is such a thing as *over* exercising. You need to have active rest days. (48:00) “Active rest” is movement such as walking, skating, or other activities between strength-training days.

Dangers of Muscle Loss - Episode 2763
Episode 2763- Vinnie Tortorich and Anna Vocino discuss the adverse effects of GLP-1s, the dangers of muscle loss, and whether more fiber is necessary. https://vinnietortorich.com/2026/02/dangers-of-muscle-loss-episode-2763 PLEASE SUPPORT OUR SPONSORS YOU CAN WATCH THIS EPISODE ON YOUTUBE - Vinnie's workout videos are available to purchase!

TO PURCHASE VINNIE'S WORKOUT VIDEOS, CLICK THIS LINK: Dangers of Muscle Loss Semiglutide update: hate to say "I told ya so..." 4:00) They discuss perpetual motion. (8:00) This relates to GLP-1 in the fact that there is nothing you can do that doesn’t cause a consequence somewhere else. (11:30) Vinnie discusses dealing with his second bout of cancer a couple of years ago. He is determined to be as active and healthy as possible. Eating strict NSNG seems to have helped him fight cancer more than if he had not been eating clean. (12:00) If you lose weight the old-fashioned way through proper eating, about 20-25% of your weight loss will be muscle. (16:00) However, that can be offset with exercise, particularly strength training. With GLP-1, a person will lose at least 40% of their muscle mass. (17:00) This matters because a lack of muscle contributes to all-cause mortality, and you can die sooner. Sarcopenia (natural muscle loss) occurs with age, typically starting around age 35, but it can be significantly slowed with strength training. (18:00) The number one drug Vinnie used to get asked about was statins, but now it’s about GLP-1s. (21:00) If a person is losing a lot of muscle on GLP-1s, you can bet it’s affecting their heart, because the heart is muscle. (25:00) Anna shares some info she’s heard recently regarding Dr. Ben Bikman. (27:30) Some Thoughts About Fiber There is also debate about fiber. (36:00) They discuss myths about fiber and whether it is as necessary as others have claimed. Anna shares a story that makes her super happy about her cookbooks. (46:00) Vinnie is trying a week off from eating cheese, but he’s wrapping up the week with Anna’s Cheese Bites for the Super Bowl. (48:30) They conclude the episode with a discussion of discontinuing GLP-1s. Talk to your doctor for the proper protocol.

Four leading companies handle meat production in the U.S. (4:30) He previously practiced industrial farming and, after 20 years, has transitioned to regenerative agriculture. (14:00) Switching to regenerative farming was a financially risky and challenging decision, but his farm has survived. (23:00) Large beef companies are allowed to import products from 20 other countries and still label them as products of the USA, under USDA labeling rules. (32:00) The labeling rules changed in 2015 through lobbying by major beef corporations. (34:00) Lobbying is rarely fair or reasonable because companies with deep pockets tend to prevail.

They discuss using CBD oil for pain relief. (6:30) And, as always, do your research. (10:30) Laura reports knee issues during exercise. (13:00) Stairclimbing can be done in a way to lessen any knee pain. MSM (Methylsulfonylmethane) and glucosamine can support joint health, but they must be taken consistently over time to see results. Laura struggles to get started on her workouts on some days. (27:00) Rowing is an effective exercise, and Vinnie offers suggestions. (28:00) The clicking sounds Laura hears when her knees “crack” are most likely nitrogen bubbles in her joints. (36:30) Laura has one final question regarding making kombucha.

Periodization is the structure of workouts into cycles: “macro, meso, micro.” (12:30) Another way of saying this is: to change things up to keep things fresh. Vinnie goes deeper, using his 2-day routine as an example. (15:00) Periodization is a way to build strength by focusing on different parts of the body. (19:00) Another approach Vinnie uses is in his aerobic exercise. (23:00) Depending on his goal, Vinnie changes things up. How do you know when you should mix things up? (33:00) When you’re not seeing much change happening in your strength, or when you’re getting bored. (39:00) There is such a thing as changing things up too frequently as well.

TO PURCHASE VINNIE'S WORKOUT VIDEOS, CLICK THIS LINK: A Lazy Protein Guide After some Flashdance talk, Vinnie and Anna welcome their guest, actress Sarah Baker. (11:45) Sarah’s question is what is the 'lazy' way to get more protein into each day. (14:00) It’s better to eat protein at each of the three meals each day rather than cram it into one or two. Stay away from hemp and pea proteins. The best protein is whey protein. (20:00) There are three types of whey: standard, concentrate, and isolates. Vinnie recommends either the standard or the concentrate; isolates are bastardized because they are more highly processed. Casein protein also has a good amino acid profile. (26:00) What is the difference between bovine protein, collagen, marine collagen, etc.? (30:00) Plant-based proteins are not effective. (38:00) Colostrum is the first milk a mother provides naturally. (41:00) Please be aware of claims that say colostrum for adults has benefits. Vinnie hates diet culture and the push to record macros all day, every day. (50:00 How do you calculate how much protein you need? (59:00) Getting between .6g and 1g per pound of lean body mass should be enough. Be careful around the gym bros — they don't always give good advice.

TO PURCHASE VINNIE'S WORKOUT VIDEOS, CLICK THIS LINK Getting Started with Lifting Vinnie shares one of his biggest mistakes in weight training. (3:30) Going to failure every time is not a good idea. What is a “set” and a “rep”? (14:15) What matters is the amount of time under pressure. (19:30) Look at the rep's quality and keep your form correct. Is there a particular approach to starting based on gender, age, or other factors? (28:00) Age can be a factor, but experience is the real factor. Vinnie describes how to gauge if you are lifting enough weight for you. (29:00) How frequently are you supposed to hit each muscle group? (32:00) Hitting each group more than a couple of times a week is enough to gain strength. More isn’t necessarily better. Vinnie discusses his 2-day routine, which is available for purchase here. (POST LINK TO WORKOUTS) (37:00) If you are an NSNG® VIP Member, these workouts are FREE. There are multiple versions of the workouts, each with a PDF for printing.

Lightning Round of NSNG 101 - Episode 2751
Episode 2751- Vinnie Tortorich and Anna Vocino give a lightning round of NSNG® 101 to help launch you into your new year goals. https://vinnietortorich.com/2026/01/lightning-round-of-nsng-101-episode-2751 PLEASE SUPPORT OUR SPONSORS YOU CAN WATCH THIS EPISODE ON YOUTUBE - Vinnie's workout videos are available to purchase! Choose from a 2-day, 4-day, or 6-day workout–or buy all three at a discount! TO PURCHASE VINNIE'S WORKOUT VIDEOS, CLICK THIS LINK Lightning Round of NSNG 101 A little info on Jaspr. (2:30) Get Vinnie’s e-book because it’s a good reminder of getting back on track if you went off the rails during the holidays, or, of course, if you are new to NSNG®. (6:00) You can purchase the NSNG® E-book for a small fee at / What meats can you eat? What are the possibilities? (12:30) It’s not required that you eat grass-fed or organic meats—eat what you can afford. Many times, you can find a local small farmer and buy a portion of beef or pork at a discount. What about processed meats like bacon, salami, and cold cuts? (18:00) How bacon is cured makes a difference. (19:00) Cold cuts can be acceptable on occasion, but they often have additives. Eggs are a fantastic food—completely nutrient-dense! (26:00) Good, real, whole milk cheeses, kefir, and full-fat Greek yogurt are all great choices. Don’t be afraid of real heavy cream. Try to find one without any additives, if possible. Vinnie emphasizes that you can’t eat *anything* with impunity, meaning you can’t go rogue and overeat, even if you're eating healthy options. (20:00) Moving on to vegetables and fruits. (32:30) Leafy greens and cruciferous vegetables are your best bet. Onions and peppers are great, too. Enjoy savory fruits like avocado, tomatoes, and olives, but they also discuss citrus, berries, and eating fruit in season. (35:00) Nuts: High-fat nuts like pili and macadamia are the best; however, you can enjoy some others, but be careful—it doesn’t take many to overdo them. (46:00) If you are trying to be vegan on NSNG, beans are a better source of nutrients than grains. If you are a vegetarian, eating eggs, cheese, and nuts is recommended to boost your protein intake. The Sweet Stuff They chat about “sweet treats.” (53:00) Reducing your intake of sweet treats will change your taste buds for the better. Anna explains the intention behind including sweet treats in her cookbooks. They are meant to be just that—a treat for an occasion! Stay away from “grain-free” chips! They are made from ingredients like cassava and other root flours, which are very high in carbs.

Cardio vs. Strength Training - Episode 2750

Cardio vs. Strength Training - Episode 2750
Episode 2750 - Vinnie Tortorich and Chris Shaffer help start your fitness plan with the benefits of cardio vs. strength training and where you should begin. https://vinnietortorich.com/2026/01/cardio-vs-strength-training-episode-2750 PLEASE SUPPORT OUR SPONSORS YOU CAN WATCH THIS EPISODE ON YOUTUBE - Vinnie's workout videos are available to purchase! Choose from a 2-day, 4-day, or 6-day workout–or buy all three at a discount! TO PURCHASE VINNIE'S WORKOUT VIDEOS, CLICK THIS LINK Cardio vs. Strength Training Where does a beginner start? (5:00) Just start with what you know you can do. If you are sedentary, start with a short walk and gradually increase it each time. Your aerobic vs anaerobic capacity is different things. (9:00) Vinnie gives a list of the variety of things that qualify as each. There are different benefits to cardio and strength training. (17:00) What is recommended? Picking one focus and sticking to it (for example, cardio), or finding a balance between cardio *and* strength training to start? (22:00) Vinnie shares his brother Mark’s journey. (23:00) Sometimes, you really do have to start with “baby steps” and grow into the routine. Vinnie likes to consider Zone 2 (70-80% of your cardiac capacity) as cardio; however, if someone is starting, any walk will help them get started. (36:00) In strength training, it can be intoxicating to feel yourself get stronger. (39:00) You will feel the strength before you start seeing visible gains. (43:00) The Zones Vinnie describes the Five Zones; however, you only need to pay attention to four of them. (47:30) The calculation to find Zone 2 (with the Maffetone method) is: 180 - (your age) = desired heart rate, or beats per minute. If you are already active, you can add about five more points to the desired heart rate. Before starting any exercise program, it is highly recommended that you see your doctor first and have a stress test. If you are eating correctly, such as with NSNG®, exercise will help build lean muscle mass. (59:00) More is not always better; sometimes, more recovery is better. (1:01:00) Vinnie recommends 4 or 5 hours a week for cardio, unless you are training for a marathon or similar competition.

You will find all the available content after joining the VIP group here: There are improvements, but a few things may still be lacking. (3:30) Protein levels are better, but recommendations for fat macros are still off. Institutions will follow the written guidelines, which are not necessarily reflected in the upside-down pyramid graphic. Institutions, like schools, have contracts with Big Food companies, which will affect how closely they follow the guidelines. (12:15) Chris goes through some of the guidelines. (15:30) The fat intake recommendations are off, in Vinnie’s experience. (24:00) Saturated fat is limited to 10% of all fats. (30:00) Vinnie believes these guidelines are good overall, but didn’t go far enough. (33:00) Institutions, companies, congresspeople, and others would most likely push back on a larger sweeping change. Whole grains, packaged breakfast options, and processed foods are at the bottom of the upside-down pyramid, and rightly so. (41:30) Limiting ultra-processed foods and refined carbs is recommended. (46:00) No meal should contain more than 10g of added sugars. It even defines what “added sugars” are. The last point discusses sodium and electrolytes.
