Summary

Buckle up people! America's Angriest Trainer Vinnie Tortorich joins the podcast today to pontificate — in the way only Vinnie can in his unfiltered and uncensored way — on a wide variety of subjects, including: * His career as an ultra-cyclist and racing the Furnace Creek 508; * What fuels his 15 hour training rides; in other words the popular & oft asked question is posed, “what do you eat on the bike?” * His opinions on aerobic zone training versus the currently popular CrossFit / Mackenzie method; * Fitness and weight loss in general; * What it's like to be a celebrity trainer in Hollywood; * His evolving perspectives on nutrition; * His Angriest Trainer Podcast; and * His upcoming book “Fitness Confidential” NOTE: Vinnie veers into a bit of explicit language a few times. Nothing crazy, but just a heads up if you're blasting it at work or unusually squeamish. And if you have a moment, we'd love it if you could toss a quick review up on the iTunes page.
