Listen in as they discuss Tony’s journey with NSNG ... Badwater 135 and NSNG Tony started NSNG 5 months before Badwater Wanted to not only lose weight but see if he could do this race running on high fat This year Badwater, a 135 mile race, started with a 22-24 mile uphill run and Tony used no sugar during climb Fueling on almost no carbs and did far better than he did before and ran the entire race almost entirely on NSNG Weight loss and NSNG Tony is 5’9” and weighed 209 pounds before NSNG On his own, he lost weight and went down to 180 pounds but then he hit a weight loss plateau His diet at the time was lots of sugar, pizza, pasta and increased his exercise That’s when he found Vinnie...and by February 2014, he went pure NSNG and today he weighs 141 pounds What NSNG Means To Tony No sugar and no grains He was miserable for the first 2-3 weeks After that he slept better, had no cravings and ran better During a race, he fuels on olives, cheese, Pocket Fuel and salami So fat adapted that during a 5-hour run he only needs water, some olives and some salami
