Pushing Your Limits - Episode 2316

Episode 2316 - On this Monday's show Vinnie Tortorich and Anna Vocino discuss pushing your limits with cold plunges, leg day, vibrating pills, and much more. https://vinnietortorich.com/2023/04/pushing-your-limits-episode-2316 PLEASE SUPPORT OUR SPONSORS PUSHING YOUR LIMITS Vinnie and Anna chat a bit about Vinnie's (at the time of this recording) upcoming trip to California. (2:00) Anna then brings up how she has been getting into the "cold plunging" movement. (6:30) She describes how she's progressed doing it, how it feels, and how she hopes to benefit. She's been inspired to try it from listening to people like Gary Brecka. Cold plunges done correctly have shown positive healing results for people with autoimmune conditions. Anna's 50th birthday is coming up and Vinnie scoffs at the idea because Anna looks so amazing. (10:45) Anna wants to head into her next decade in the most positive ways possible.  This leads to some fun discussion of doppelgängers, aging, and more cold plunging therapy. Vinnie wants to discuss weightlifting and a recent documentary he saw about bodybuilder Dorian Yates. (27:00) Vinnie shares information about certain bodybuilding history. He also advocates for what makes a good "leg day", and pushing your limits. They also discuss "natural" bodybuilding vs. steroids. GETTING YOURSELF MOVING Anna brings up a recent "cure" for constipation: a vibration pill. (41:00) They have a lot of fun with this discussion; however, there is serious talk about real ways to solve this health issue. The best way is to get your eating in proper order, with healthy foods and proper nutrients, and a healthy gut microbiome. And no, psyllium husks do not have the proper nutrients and are not necessary! They chat about how difficult it is to get people to think differently and be open to things like simply changing your eating. (47:00) People end up making themselves victims. People have also been led to believe that they should never question their doctors or the status quo. Vinnie and
