TO PURCHASE VINNIE'S WORKOUT VIDEOS, CLICK THIS LINK workout videos 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.

    The New Dietary Guidelines - Episode 2749

    Episode 2749 - Vinnie Tortorich and Chris Shaffer go over the new Dietary Guidelines that have been released, and whether they are on the right track. https://vinnietortorich.com/2026/01/the-new-dietary-guidelines-episode-2749 PLEASE SUPPORT OUR SPONSORS Pure Vitamin Club Pure Coffee Club NSNG® Foods VILLA CAPPELLI EAT HAPPY KITCHEN YOU CAN WATCH THIS EPISODE ON YOUTUBE - @FitnessConfidential Podcast Vinnie's workout videos are available to purchase!

You will find all the available content after joining the VIP group here: https://nsngvip.com/join 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.

    BEST OF: Better Mental Health with Dr. Georgia Ede - Episode 2747

    Episode 2747 - BEST OF: Vinnie Tortorich welcomes psychiatrist Dr. Georgia Ede to discuss how nutrition can create better mental health, and more. https://vinnietortorich.com/2026/01/better-mental-health-dr-georgia-ede-episode-2747 PLEASE SUPPORT OUR SPONSORS Pure Vitamin Club Pure Coffee Club NSNG® Foods VILLA CAPPELLI EAT HAPPY KITCHEN YOU CAN WATCH THIS EPISODE ON YOUTUBE - @FitnessConfidential Podcast Vinnie's NSNG® VIP Group was opened on January 2, 2026!

Sugars and Oxidative Stress More kids than ever are presenting with psychological problems. (2:00) Vinnie mentions Robyn Dobbins, who openly shares how diet has improved her mental health symptoms. People are feeding their brains improperly. (4:30) There have been decades of misinformation, so treatment has been off. Everyone deserves the correct information upfront rather than having to go through multiple medications. (7:00) Georgia goes through her personal history and how she stumbled onto dietary health changes. Sweeteners have many side effects. (16:00) Sugar is the only addictive substance that society sanctions for children. (20:00) It is not only addictive, but it is also physically damaging to the brain because it creates oxidative stress in the brain. (24:00) Refined flours do the same by causing a glycogen load; as a result, your insulin is raised longer. (25:00) Most people are metabolically broken, so sugars and carbs are even more harmful. If your body "needs" sugar, your body will make it. Fats and proteins are essential, but carbs are not. (31:00) The FDA recommends a bunch of nonsense. And now our gut health is a topic that needs to be paid attention to. Better Mental Health Vinnie knows people whose adult kids are still having issues, but refuse to believe that diet can help. (38:00) Georgia always uses dietary interventions first, and she has found them to be the most effective for her clients (41:00) There are certain foods the brain needs. It's not just junk food that hurts, but also foods we've been told are healthy that aren't (like whole grains). Dr. Ede's book Change Your Diet, Change Your Mind addresses dietary therapy as a first step. (45:00) They discuss many different things that have been happening in the news, which are examples of declining mental health. (48:00) Vinnie asks how you get more N=1 cases on the books to demonstrate the advantages of diet and mental health. Changing your diet is a change for the better. You can find Dr. Ede at https://diagnosisdiet.com. You can also find a clinician's directory on her website. Another resource is the Charlie Foundation: https://charliefoundation.org The keto diet is safe, but there is still a transition, especially if you are on medication.

    Starting Where You're At - Episode 2746

    Episode 2746 - Vinnie Tortorich and Chris Shaffer answer essential questions about starting where you're at in your fitness journey, protein, and more. https://vinnietortorich.com/2026/01/starting-where-youre-at-episode-2746 PLEASE SUPPORT OUR SPONSORS Pure Vitamin Club Pure Coffee Club NSNG® Foods VILLA CAPPELLI EAT HAPPY KITCHEN YOU CAN WATCH THIS EPISODE ON YOUTUBE - @FitnessConfidential Podcast Starting Where You're At First: Vinnie's NSNG® VIP Group opens up January 2, 2026! Vinnie's workout videos, group calls, and supportive community are waiting for you, FREE to all members who join! What is the biggest mistake people tend to make going into a new workout routine? (3:30) People tend to quit going to the gym after only two weeks or so after signing up. They use excuses even though they feel better while exercising. DOMS (delayed-onset muscle soreness) is another reason people stop. (10:00) This feeling will happen less and less as you become more consistent and stronger. Start where you are and work up—you don't need to go hard right away. (15:00) Don't be intimidated by others and where they are in their journey. You don't have to go to a gym all the time. If you don't have time for the gym, try some body-weight exercises. (22:30) When to eat protein and how much? (32:00) In general: 120-150g per day for average-height men, for average-height women, 85g-120g per day. (32:00) It's OK if you go a little over on some days. Eating something in the morning boosts your metabolism. However, it doesn't take much. What about sleep and recovery? (36:00) How to become disciplined? (39:00) A lot of it is attitude, and your attitude can change. How do you know when you are doing enough, especially when you hit a "plateau"? (45:00) When exercising, plateaus happen when you don't change enough. Changing up the muscle stimulation will help. They discuss a "starting strength workout." And finally: Be careful with the bro-science you'll see and hear on the internet. (54:00) A New Sponsor Jaspr Air Scrubbers has a discount code, VINNIE, that gets you $400 off for a limited time.

(15:00) He uses several protocols in addition to NSNG®; however, Vinnie has some questions and suggestions for Lee. (21:00) He has lost and gained significant weight several times, and it's affecting his health. Vinnie is trying to get Lee to stumble less. Lee needs to stop trying to game the system. Lee also started lifting to strengthen his knees. He realized his sore knees were probably less about arthritis and more about lack of strength. Shelly joins the call. (46:00) She gives Vinnie an update on her health metrics. A DEXA scan is the best way to detect body composition (bone density, muscle growth, and body fat percentage).

(2:00) Vinnie recently witnessed a common misconception at the gym. (8:00) One exercise, too many sets. Vinnie can get a full workout in within 35-45 minutes, and he's guided people to do the same. He shares a story from his gym about a woman doing multiple sets. Her real name is not Leona. The woman was doing more sets than necessary; she admitted that, despite his advice, she was still relying on information that had been told to her years before. Anna knows that it can take time for people to unwind the habits they have learned. It took Anna a while to adjust to the idea that eating higher levels of fat was beneficial. (16:00) Vinnie understands the origin of the idea of multiple sets, but it isn't always necessary. (17:30) Vinnie made a tuna dish for a quick, easy protein and used Anna's spices. (30:00) Vinnie has gotten back into rollerblading and shares a story. (40:00) He witnessed a woman who was also on the track, who was watching her phone the entire time during her 45-minute walk. (43:00) She had an opportunity to be outside and enjoy her environment; however, her head was cranked down, looking at her phone. The constant engagement with phones creates disconnection, and people are missing the world around them. (46:15) Battling Bad Information Bad fitness info is all around all the time. (53:00) Exercise is a poor way to lose a lot of weight. However, if you are eating correctly, the weight will come off more quickly. (55:00) Exercise is the fountain of youth—getting strong will help with metabolism and longevity.

    Lipstick On A Pig - Episode 2723

    Episode 2723 - Vinnie Tortorich and Chris Shaffer discuss adding protein to processed foods, GLP-1s, and how it's all "lipstick on a pig." https://vinnietortorich.com/2025/11/lipstick-on-a-pig-episode-2723 PLEASE SUPPORT OUR SPONSORS Pure Vitamin Club Pure Coffee Club NSNG® Foods VILLA CAPPELLI EAT HAPPY KITCHEN YOU CAN WATCH THIS EPISODE ON YOUTUBE - @FitnessConfidential Podcast Lipstick On A Pig Vinnie and Chris have been working hard on manufacturing challenges. (3:00) There is a change in marketing around diet. (10:00) Pop-Tarts is claiming it has a high-protein version. They review the ingredients list. (15:30) It's essential to develop the persistence to achieve the success you want. (24:00) Other junk foods, such as Doritos, add protein. But don't be fooled! Adding protein to crappy food doesn't make the crappy food "healthy." (25:00) It's just putting "lipstick on a pig"! Metabolic damage can be seen in just a few short weeks when eating ultra-processed foods. (26:30) Chris discusses a study on weight gain from consuming ultra-processed foods. (27:00) Even if a brand you have used before has clean ingredients, you need to be vigilant and keep checking the ingredients, since companies will often add things that aren't good, such as seed oils. (33:00) California has claimed it will be ridding school lunches of junk food, but it is spreading the goal out over several years. (38:00) There Are Choices GLP-1s are now available as oral medication, but do they cause the same effect as the injectable ones? (49:30) The same dose is marketed as "similar." (51:00) People who have followed and stuck to NSNG have gotten off multiple medications. Personally, Vinnie stays away from certain meds, including hormones, because he wants to avoid a recurring cancer. (53:00) There are often a lot of things you can do before you turn to meds in many cases. (55:00) Proper nutrition, exercise (especially weight training), and things like vitamin D and magnesium help! Vinnie gives an example of how he has naturally improved his testosterone levels. You have to actually push yourself beyond a certain comfort level to see and feel a difference. (1:02:30) Sarcopenia happens to everyone, but you can absolutely fight it.

    Flip the Script - Episode 2730

    Episode 2730 - Vinnie Tortorich and Anna Vocino host guests for a call-in show to discuss steps into NSNG, the need to "flip the script," and more. https://vinnietortorich.com/2025/12/flip-the-script-episode-2730 PLEASE SUPPORT OUR SPONSORS Pure Vitamin Club Pure Coffee Club NSNG® Foods VILLA CAPPELLI EAT HAPPY KITCHEN YOU CAN WATCH ALL THE PODCAST EPISODES ON YOUTUBE - @FitnessConfidential Podcast Flip the Script Vinnie just got back from Barbados, his first real vacation in a while. (3:00) He shares a story of how the locals were friendly and helpful. He didn't, however, engage with a pina colada as planned. The first caller is Ty. He got to meet Anna at a fundraising comedy show, and it was better than Disneyland. (17:00) He and his partner, Michelle, are members of the VIP group and love the community. (19:00) Ty's question: Summarize for newcomers to NSNG, the easiest first step one can take when starting. Anna: Start with your favorite proteins and build around that. Grilling and stovetop first—quicker and easier to get into. (25:00) Vinnie reminds you to be mindful, but avoid being carb-phobic. Cruciferous veggies are your friend. (29:00) Second call-in guest is Trish: Trish has been NSNG off and on for years. She is struggling to get back into it mentally. They discuss various reasons. Be careful of the story you tell yourself. You need to flip the script in your head. (40:00) Leslie is starting her own trail mix company with clean ingredients. (43:00) She's done a lot of research, and it'll be especially great for camping and hiking. Nutrition and Meds Amy is the next caller, and she has a nutrition question. She recently had an intestinal blockage and was in the hospital. (53:00) They discuss possible options as Amy transitions back to regular foods from IV fluids. She is a former triathlete who wants to transition into weight training. (59:30) You can get strong without hours of training. Wayne is next and needs to be wearing some different t-shirt merch. (1:24:00) He tried to transition slowly into NSNG—he's not a "cold turkey" kind of person. He has some concerns with his blood pressure and the medication he is on. Vinnie does not give medical advice, but they discuss what could be causing it. They advise Wayne to get a full health workup and to let his doctor know that he has changed his meds. (1:25:00) Never stop medications without consulting your doctor first!

    Focusing On Policy with Dr. Tony Hampton - Episode 2720

    Episode 2720 - Vinnie Tortorich welcomes Dr. Tony Hampton to discuss focusing on policy, advocating for change, use of GLP-1s, and more. https://vinnietortorich.com/2025/11/focusing-on-policy-episode-2720 PLEASE SUPPORT OUR SPONSORS Pure Vitamin Club Pure Coffee Club NSNG® Foods VILLA CAPPELLI EAT HAPPY KITCHEN YOU CAN WATCH THIS EPISODE ON YOUTUBE - @FitnessConfidential Podcast Focusing On Policy Dr. Tony Hampton has been a guest on the show several times—he has a long history of advocating in the low-carb space. (2:00) Being policy-focused rather than party-focused in governmental policy should be the focus. (8:30) Dr. Hampton describes his career focus on improving metabolic health, including how to incentivize doctors to help people discontinue medications and reduce the cost of care. (12:00) RFK Jr. may not always speak clearly to the mainstream public in a way that resonates. Dr. Hampton still faces challenges in the mainstream medical space, where other doctors struggle to embrace certain concepts; for example, many of his peers continue to have trouble accepting the idea that saturated fat is not harmful. (14:00) Despite the benefits of a low-carb or ketogenic diet and its positive effects on things like diabetes and other metabolic diseases, it is still not accepted by many doctors. Apparently, they didn't get the memo! (16:00) They discuss food deserts and their effects on the community. (21:00) Advocating and Taking Action Dr. Hampton describes a current concept in healthcare being initiated by Advocate Trinity. (22:00) Much of it is educating people about food and lifestyle, and helping them to change their habits for the better (28:00) Vinnie admits he is not a fan of GLP-1s, but he understands how they can be a valuable tool for teaching and helping people adopt new habits. (31:00) They discuss the negative aspects of GLP-1s. The muscle loss associated with GLP-1 is more pronounced than that observed with natural weight loss. Muscle is essential for so many reasons, including boosting insulin sensitivity. (38:00) It is the metabolic engine of the body! Increasing muscle mass prevents you from becoming fragile. (38:00) Dr. Hampton offers two programs: NEST, which stands for Nutrition, Exercise, Less Stress/More Sleep, and How You Think/Less Trauma. ROPE is for Relationships, Organism (avoiding bad/adding good), Pollutants, and Emotions.

    Episode 2731 - Vinnie Tortorich and Chris Shaffer discuss the evolution of beliefs, what we tell ourselves, junk food trends, and more. https://vinnietortorich.com/2025/12/what-we-tell-ourselves-episode-2731 PLEASE SUPPORT OUR SPONSORS Pure Vitamin Club Pure Coffee Club NSNG® Foods VILLA CAPPELLI EAT HAPPY KITCHEN YOU CAN WATCH THIS EPISODE ON YOUTUBE - @FitnessConfidential Podcast What We Tell Ourselves Note: There is a discussion around Santa and beliefs—if you have little ones around while listening, we encourage listener discretion. The origin of the "Daisy Dukes" and the show Dukes of Hazard. (3:00) They discuss how information about topics like climate change has changed, and that we are always learning. Vinnie relates the belief in Santa to the belief in what is possible. (13:00) We tell ourselves things we want to be true, so we can get what we want. (16:30) Oral semiglutide's effects are supposed to be as effective as the injection, but there are still side effects. (21:00) "The Decaf study." They discuss decaf and caffeinated coffee and whether it is harmful enough. Taco Bell has its own soda flavor, Baja Blast. (28:00) They just launched their own pie based on the same flavor. People think they can get away with one thing if they believe they are compensating elsewhere, but that doesn't always work that way. CICO, or taking a GLP-1, is an example of this; people will indulge, thinking that the running or the GLP-1 will take care of the fallout. (36:00) The FDA is lifting black box warnings from women's estrodiol packaging. (51:00) This allows women options that they didn't think were possible before to treat perimenopause and menopausal symptoms.

(3:00) Vinnie always checks the source of an article before he even reads it. If it's Harvard and Walter Willett, you know the study is likely biased. (6:00) The lack of objectivity isn't shocking. (8:00) You can book a consult through his website at vinnietortorich.com using this link. >>> https://vinnietortorich.com/phone-consultation-2/ You can also see the link in the menu bar near the top of his website. He is here to help you, not scold you! They chat about golf. (26:00) They return to discussing consultations as well as food labeling. (32:00) Starbucks is experimenting with new protein-infused versions of its coffee drinks. You're not saving yourself by adding protein to a high-carb flavored drink. (39:00) Having that amount of sugar frequently is death by a thousand cuts. They discuss the recent criticism of the fitness and health of our military. (46:00) Chris explains his thought that Pixar's Wall-E should be looked at as a warning. (52:00) Weighted vests are all over social media. (53:00) First of all, do not run in a weighted vest. Weighted vests can be beneficial, but they do not necessarily fulfill all the claims being touted.

Cheaper products use lower-quality ingredients. They discuss carb count in tomatoes. (17:30) Vinnie describes again "life into living" and not being carb-phobic. (20:00) Tomatoes and Anna's sauces are not a problem. The discussion leads to playing "Stripper or NFL." (26:30) Vinnie's focus has always been to eat real, whole foods.
