When you're strapped for time, is exercise what you cut? Or have you decided to just eat your way through the holidays and then start your fitness journey in January? Is there a part of you that would like to start doing something, anything for your health now? You don't need a complete overhaul, you just need to find your minimum effective dose.Today, Jenn is joined by Vince Sant, creator of the “Fat Loss Extreme” fitness program and Co-Founder of V Shred, who's here to help us rethink how we approach health and fitness. Vince is passionate about making fitness accessible for everyone, especially for women ages 35-and-up. We'll discuss the power of resistance training—especially for women—and debunk the myth that lifting weights leads to bulk. Vince dives into the benefits of HIIT workouts, explaining how they leverage Excess Post-Exercise Oxygen Consumption (EPOC) for maximum calorie burn, even after you've left the gym so we can work smarter not harder…or longer. He also emphasizes the importance of starting now—no need to wait for January 1. By stacking small wins, like walking on an incline or incorporating intentional movements into your day, you can create a foundation for long-term success. He'll share why achieving your health goals doesn't require perfection but rather gradual, consistent changes. Focusing on your minimum effective dose, Vince delivers insights for building lasting habits without sacrificing life's joys. The Salad With a Side of Fries podcast is hosted by Jenn Trepeck, discussing wellness and weight loss for real life, clearing up the myths, misinformation, bad science & marketing surrounding our nutrition knowledge and the food industry. Let's dive into wellness and weight loss for real life, including drinking, eating out, and skipping the grocery store. IN THIS EPISODE: [5:50] Vince describes why he focused on fitness for women 35 + and the joy he receives from watching them thrive and support one another[14:46] Vince challenges the "wait until January 1" mindset and explains why starting now makes all the difference[18:54] Learn how a sustainable approach beats quick fixes every time[21:21] Discover the power of the minimum effective dose in fitness and how it works[28:34]  Common fitness mistakes and expert tips for maximizing calorie burn[33:32] Find out why walking on an incline is a simple yet powerful fat-burning strategy[35:39] Vince explains why resistance training is a game-changer, especially for women[40:42] Explore the effectiveness of bodyweight workouts for all fitness levels[43:02] Settle the cardio debate: should it come before or after your workout[48:35] Finally, Vince wraps up with rapid-fire questions to deliver quick, actionable insights.KEY TAKEAWAYS: Achieving fitness and dietary goals requires a gradual, sustainable approach. Start small by making one change each week and build upon it. Avoid overwhelming yourself by trying to do everything perfectly all at once. Focus on consistency rather than willpower, as lasting discipline develops over time. Balance and moderation, rather than restriction, allow enjoying life's pleasures while fostering long-term success. Starting now, rather than delaying until a milestone like New Year's, increases your chances of sticking with it and breaking the cycle of quick starts and early quits.Building a sustainable fitness program starts with small, manageable steps. Focus on mastering one habit at a time, like drinking more water, setting a consistent bedtime, or starting the day with a healthy breakfast. Gradually adding new weekly habits creates a strong foundation for long-term success without feeling overwhelmed. This step-by-step approach allows you to develop consistency and effectively integrate positive changes into your lifestyle.Effective fitness programs require a balanced approach, prioritizing key components like resistance training, cardio, and balance. Resistance training should often take precedence, particularly for women, as it supports muscle growth and overall fitness better than relying solely on cardio. While cardio has benefits and can complement a routine, it's not the sole solution for getting in shape. Instead, choose activities you enjoy to make cardio sustainable and view it as enhancing your fitness journey rather than the foundation.High-Intensity Interval Training (HIIT) is an efficient cardio method involving short bursts of maximum effort followed by rest. For beginners, a good starting ratio is 20 seconds of high-intensity activity, like sprinting, followed by 40–60 seconds of rest. This approach maximizes calorie burn, improves cardiovascular health, and can be adapted to various fitness levels, making it a practical option for those looking to enhance their workouts.HIIT workouts leverage the power of Excess Post-Exercise Oxygen Consumption (EPOC), meaning your body continues to burn calories after the workout. Pushing yourself during short, intense intervals creates an oxygen deficit that boosts calorie burn and metabolic activity even during recovery.QUOTES: [10:12] “My mom doesn't want to be in shape because she wants to have abs at the pool. She just wants to feel good, have energy, and be able to play with her grandkids when we have them.” Vince Sant[11:35] “Fitness doesn't have to be this all-consuming process, it can be something where there is balance, and you can still live your life, get phenomenal results, and feel great about yourself.” Vince Sant[15:13] “I do wish people would not treat New Year's like it's a specific time of year that will change everything for them because the change is internal.” Vince Sant[20:07] “I always say this time of year, start stacking wins now so that when new year's gets here, you already got a little bit of momentum, and you don't all of a sudden have to start 20 new things where you feel all this pressure.” Vince Sant[21:38] “The minimal effective dose is simply doing the least work where you get the most reward.” Vince Sant[33:00] “ You could burn calories for 2 days from a 10-minute workout. So that's what I'm talking about when I'm saying ‘minimum effective dose'.” Vince Sant[35:37] “Women need resistance training, and it needs to be a topic of conversation in women's circles.” Vince Sant[54:01] “Remember, we never have to be perfect. And this time of year, we don't have to strive for optimal. Instead, consider your personal minimum effective dose and keep moving forward.” Jenn TrepeckRESOURCES:Become A Member of Salad with a Side of FriesJenn's Free Menu PlanA Salad With a Side of FriesA Salad With A Side Of Fries MerchA Salad With a Side of Fries InstagramGUEST RESOURCES: V Shred - WebpageV Shred - YouTubeV Shred IG - InstagramV Shred 4 Women - InstagramVince's Personal IG - InstagramVince Sant - LinktreeGUEST BIO: Vince Sant is the creator of the popular “Fat Loss Extreme” fitness program and Co-Founder of V Shred, one of the fastest-growing online fitness brands in the world.

Is there benefit to doing some really seriously fast running, even for long distance runners? If so, how often should we do it to avoid interrupting our usual training?

In Today's episode I dive into what the minimum effective dose is and how we can apply it. I saw this in a book by Tim Ferris - The Four Hour BodyBegin The Duel, Win The DaySupport the show

If you spend time in gyms or follow fitness influencers, you've likely encountered the mindset that more is better when it comes to training volume.  More sets, more reps, more time in the gym equals faster results. Right? Not necessarily. As with many areas of fitness and nutrition, the truth is more nuanced. Enter the concept of "minimum effective dose" training. Instead of constantly pushing the boundaries of training capacity and trying to maximize your progress, this approach focuses on the least amount of volume needed to drive meaningful progress. To dig into the details of this methodology, I'm joined by Dr. Patroklos “Pak” Androulakis-Korakakis. With a PhD focused on minimum effective training doses for strength gains and years of coaching experience, Dr. Pak has a deep understanding of the science and application of this topic. Throughout our discussion, you'll learn . . . What minimum effective dose training is and the major benefits it offers The surprising muscle-building potential of low training volumes How to determine your personal minimum effective doses based on experience level, genetics, and goals The importance of training intensity and progression regardless of overall volume How to add volume gradually over time as you adapt Why most people underestimate the effort needed to build muscle How social media promotes unrealistic training expectations The value of long-term consistency over extreme programs How traveling or busy schedules are no excuse to skip workouts And much more . . . If you want to maximize training efficiency and results, this episode provides science-backed insights on the least training needed for meaningful gains so you can save time and general “wear and tear” on your body.

Dr Paul Batman is a university academic and is recognised as one of the world's leading exercise physiologists. As co-founder of Fitness Institute Australia (FIA) and a university lecturer, Paul has trained thousands of people to become accredited in the fields of Exercise Science, Sports Coaching and Personal Training. He is a vocational educator, researcher, author, and avid fitness tragic. “For over 40 years I had been participating in and prescribing moderate to high intensity exercise to increase fitness, improve wellbeing and lose weight. Two weeks away from climbing Mount Killimanjaro at age 65 years, my Cardiologist told me I was close to having a fatal heart attack, with one of my coronary arteries 90% blocked. I had been aware of many well-trained athletes for no apparent reason suffering a heart attack against, but I thought it would never happen to me. This diagnosis tipped my approach to exercise programming upside down.” Listen to Paul explain chronic cardio syndrome and the loss in elasticity of endothelial lines, why Orcas in captivity suffer a floppy dorsal fin, how MET (metabolic equivalent of tasks) is transforming fitness programming and Andrew (nervously) asks Paul to assess the guidelines he and Dr Tom Buckley have just released for Level 1 Physiology Building Blocks and Level 2 Longevity and Performance.In this podcast Andrew and Dr Paul discuss:2:25 The change in fitness methods from 15 years ago to now3:45 Dr Paul's own heart attack scare and how he was in disbelief6:15 Shifting the narrative on wellbeing and exercise programming to align with his new research7:20 Endothelium lines and 'the widowmaker'12:00 Exercising too much and METs (Metabolic Equivalent of Tasks)15:00 The wrong messages about exercise going out to the public and how outsourcing your life can eventually kill you18:00 How Dr Paul trains for treks doing housework and vacuuming (this part of the podcast should be sponsored by Dyson vacuum cleaners)21:15 Being sedentary vs being inactive23:30 Getting your 10,000 steps daily and why this is so important27:15 Floppy dorsal fin syndrome and Andrew's analogy of how this plays out for unfit, inflamed middle-aged men31:30 The problem with having too much information about exercise (over-analysis leads to paralysis)34:00 How much sitting is too much and looking at opportunities to move37:30 The best way to exercise during the week 42:30 Creating a tribe of active non-exercisers44:30 Why the World Health Organisation doesn't really work well with the fitness industry47:30 What drives Dr Paul and longevity49:15 Getting kids active.52:30 Dr Paul's thoughts on Andrew's Level 1 Physiology Building Blocks.56:00 Intermittent fasting throughout history and using temperature contrast therapy59:00 Andrew's Level 2 Longevity and Performance, and the importance of lifting heavy weights1:03:20 Sarcopenia and ageing To find the resources mentioned in this episode go to: https://www.andrewmay.com/performance-intelligence-with-andrew-may/ Find Dr Paul at his LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/dr-paul-batman-9092a052/Or at his Website: https://www.drpaulbatman.com.au/ Find out more about Andrew's Keynotes : https://www.andrewmay.com/keynotes/Follow Andrew May: https://www.instagram.com/andrewmay/Follow StriveStronger: https://www.instagram.com/strive.stronger/If you enjoy the podcast, we would really appreciate you leaving a short review on Apple Podcasts, Spotify or Google Play.

There is a lot of talk about optimal training, but we love the concept of Minimum Effective Dose.   This is the minimum amount of training to make progress. For people who are pressed for time, this approach will still get you progressing toward your goals with the least amount of time spent exercising.   Depending on our schedules and time of year, we will have times when we train optimally, with many hours spent training per week with periods of minimalist training.   In this episode, Winston talks about the amount of work needed to improve strength, muscle mass, endurance and mobility. You will probably be surprised by how little you need to do to see measurable progress.   When you are ready to start a coaching program, you can find out more at www.livewildradio.com/fitnesscoaching    Fitness Equipment We Endorse and Support Us:   Bells of Steel Adjustable Kettlebells -Get the world's smallest gym with a pair of adjustable kettlebells from Bell of Steel https://rb.gy/nccwf.

Do you like to get stronger all year round? Train a lot but have found your gains...Plateauing? You are stuck doing the same old workout over and over again but it has stopped getting you results. One of the biggest problems is a lack of progressive overload and structured exercise progression.A structured program is better than just doing a single workout to keep you gaining all year long. There is a lot of time and energy that has built and refined the Bulletproof For BJJ programs. Knowing how to transition between programs is another key element of continual improvement.

This week I answer this question:Dear Jen, my question is two fold, first, what is the one thing that I can focus on to gain or maintain my health across my years and my second is around working out. If I only have 2-3 hours a week to exercise, what is the best bang for my buck?

When most people think about getting in shape, their first priority is usually fat loss - and for good reason. Excess adipose tissue can, in many cases, contribute to or exacerbate dozens of other health problems. But what if instead of focusing on losing fat, you focused on gaining muscle? Lean muscle tissue is a metabolic workhorse. It strengthens your bones, acts as a natural glucose storage location and helps to balance your hormones. Interestingly, it's often faster to build muscle than it is to shed fat, and the two often go head-in-hand. Listen and learn: Why lean muscle tissue tests are inaccurate The future of D3-creatine tests for accurate “weigh in” of muscle mass The correlation between lean muscle, bone density, and reduced all-cause mortality Weights vs bodyweight exercise: can you do it at home?

Today we're going to talk about something that's very important when it comes to run training, but it's something that you might not have heard of before.  It's the concept of Minimum Effective Dose. Listen in as I explain exactly what this is and why it's an important concept for you to understand (and implement) in your training.Enjoy!CLICK HERE TO APPLY FOR RUN YOUR FIRST 50K CLICK HERE TO JOIN MY PRIVATE FACEBOOK GROUP FOLLOW ME ON INSTAGRAM CLICK HERE TO DOWNLOAD MY FREE DAILY SHAKEDOWN CLICK HERE TO GET MY FREE 10 WEEK ULTRA TRAINING PLAN

Matt & Scott developed the concept of Minimum Effective Dose programming (MED programming) through conversations on the podcast. Today, Matt and Scott discuss how to apply the principles of MED programming when PRs are behind you.    Listen to Scott's podcasts: Online Great Books, Music & Ideas, or Growing Resilience. This typically occurs for older clients with high-compliance (though even younger clients who have trained consistently for a long enough time run into this problem). If you're a lifter who regularly takes vacations and misses training, you'll continue to return to linear progression, so this doesn't happen.  Eventually, you can't recover from the stress it takes to hits bigger PRs. Older people tend to sleep less well and they cannot eat as many calories without adding bodyfat. Plus, the reality is simply that the body doesn't react as well to things as it ages - it's just a fact of life.  This also applies to those who find themselves suddenly facing a huge amount more stress. Scott, for example, besides being a bit older, is doing manual labor on his farmstead. This stress matters when it comes to his recovery and ability to stress himself in the gym.  Practically, what does this mean? It often means pulling slots - less frequent training and less volume. You may see 5s become 4s become 3s after awhile. More days of rest between training are needed. Eventually, weight will have to come off the bar, though. Scott has also found that he doesn't program cycles longer than 4 weeks for post-advanced clients.  A disclaimer, though - if you're an officer worker who has never done intelligent training, you need to do this, you need to chase numbers, and you need to get big and strong.    GET STARTED with one-on-one online coaching FOR FREE!
