Podcasts about starchy

Welcome to the Purple Patch Podcast! Matt Dixon and Scott Tindal discuss the evolving landscape of nutrition in endurance sports, particularly in IRONMAN Triathlon. Scott, co-founder of Fuelin, talks about establishing a foundation of healthy eating habits, including 6-9 servings of vegetables per day, 2 pieces of fruit, and appropriate protein intake (1-2 grams per pound of body weight). Focus on sleep quality and aim for 7-9 hours of time in bed per night. Increase daily movement and non-exercise activity, not just relying on structured workouts. ​​They also mention in the off-season to consider stress management techniques and finding the right balance of productive stress. Follow IRONMAN Master Coach Matt Dixon as he discusses the latest nutrition and fitness trends.

The mission of purple patch is to empower and educate every human being to reach their athletic potential. Through the lens of athletic potential, you reach your human potential. The purpose of this podcast is to help time starved people everywhere integrate sport into life.   00:29 Welcome to the purple patch podcast, as ever your host Matt Dixon, and today we are on part two of our coaches, conversations with Scott Tindal. Scott is the co founder of fueling, one of the preeminent influences in how athletes are fueling and hydrating their races across all endurance sports. And Scott is a pretty much a regular on the show now, and today, we're going to get back down to basics a little bit, because we're ending the year and we're all looking forward, looking to up level over the course of the coming year. And I thought would be fun to have Scott's perspective across three main areas. Number one, if you're an athlete seeking to up level your performance, what can you be doing right now to lay the foundation as it relates to eating and, as you'll find out sleeping as well. The second category I want to jump into is to gain Scott's advice and some simple application on what you should do if you are really focused on improving your body composition, some of the ABCs of that. And it turns out that you've got a lot of control on how to improve the area. And then finally, what is for Scott's perspective as it relates to longevity, making sure you're setting yourself up for the best quality of life for the years ahead. We straight outside of nutrition. There we talk about movement, sleep, stress reduction, and some key habits around both your eating and your daily hydration. It's fun packed. It's a coach's conversation, and it's really insightful. I think you're going to enjoy it. And so without further ado, I'm going to give you Scott dinner. But one small note as well, if you want to find out more about fueling, simply head to fueling.com/purple.   02:16 Patch, the team are always ready to reach out and help with any of your needs, you can also find all of the information on purple patch programming at purple patch fitness.com and if you want to have a direct connect to the team at fuel in or if you want to reach out to us directly and extend the conversation, simply ping us an email info@purplepatchfitness.com   02:36 We'll be delighted to set up a complimentary consultation. But without further ado, I give you. Scott Tindal, it is time for the meat and potatoes.   02:50 It is the meat and potatoes. So here's a question for you. Are you an athlete that is looking ahead to next year and thinking, I want to take my performance to the next level? Or perhaps you're someone that really wants to improve your body composition, or, Further still, he's someone that wants to build a platform of daily energy where you want to set yourself up for a high quality of life for the years ahead, if you're any one of those people, or perhaps all three. And then this is the show for you, because I've welcomed back my guest. I would call him my master guest, because he's been on the show so much now. Scott Tindal from fuel in welcome Scotty. Matty, good to see you again. Last week, we had a nice chat about uh Kona and some broader perspectives on triathlon. Now we're going to expand our horizons a little bit, and I want to have some common advice as we start to enter into the end of the year, and most people are looking ahead. They're getting ready to commit to their New Year's resolutions and all of that stuff. But I want to get some general advice for you, and I'm going to go just very simply with three questions of, what should we focus on if you're an athlete, if you're looking for body composition changes, if you're looking for improving your longevity and daily quality of life and what you bring to your role, or anything that's important to you. Very, very simple stuff, really practical guidance and advice and and I will say, before we dive into this, we talked a lot in last week's show about fueling. We talked a lot about athletics, race fueling. Some observations around Kona. If you guys missed that show, I really recommend you go back. It was a treasure trove of perspective and and really interesting insights. Today, we're going to get a little bit more practical and and really rip the meat off the bone, as it were. And I want to start with talking about the athlete first and and let's   04:46 let most athletes at this phase of the year are in what we call off season, so it's a far away in the horizon that their race goals and their start lines are their training demands.   05:00 Levels are much lower. Specificity is actually probably lower. So far as not really training race specificity right now, they're doing a lot of foundational work. So as a nutritionist, what would be your recommendation for athletes thinking about charting their journey for higher performance. What should they be focusing on right now, in terms of eating, fueling, supporting training, demands, hydration, how should they an athlete think about it? Because most of them stop thinking about it. Yeah, I think it's a really good question. And actually probably for all three problems that you described at the start, my answer would probably be very similar, actually, but we can get into the nitty gritty of that. I mean, firstly, I think, reflect on what's happened in the season past, yeah, with either yourself or with your coach or with your team around you, and say, Well, where do we do well, where do we not go? Well, take the army Schwarzenegger approach. Cut, cut your pants off at the knees so you can see your calves at every opportunity and say, Well, this is my weakness. How am I going to develop that weakness to become a strength? And so, okay, you're that high perform, that athlete who wants high performance. Where was the high performance missing? Where are you going to direct your efforts to maybe you weren't strong enough. Okay, so what is the big picture of the macro cycle of the next 12 months look like? What's the overarching goal for that? And that's, you know, going to be a discussion. And then how does things, obviously, specifically, how does nutrition fit with that? If you need to build muscle because you're a bit weaker, then your calorie intake is going to be really important. You have to be in a caloric surplus. You have to be manipulating your protein and certainly your carbohydrates around your training to maximize the impact of that. So just want to pause that, because I think that's really important. If weakness, if general weakness, is an area to attack and you want to build strength. It's not just about going to the gym. It's not just about training. There is a nutritional component that are critical. You need to be in a surplus. I want to double underline that. So just just explain what this and then when you say manipulating protein, what do you mean by that practical? So, yeah, I mean and again, why? Even from a training perspective, I would counter that and say it's not just about lifting weights. It's it's lifting weights with a purpose, yes, with an intensity. It's with a focus. So, you know, if you want to have hypertrophy, there's a certain rep range, there's a certain set range, there's a certain rest period that you need to be focusing on. And everyone's so worried I'm going to get bulky, it's like, Oh, come on. Like, yeah, even if you did get a bit bulky, is that going to be the worst thing for you at the start of the off season, probably, you know, every triathlete or insurance athlete throughout the year is most likely, as you highlighted last week. You know, I've shrunk,   07:52 you will most likely either maintain your lean mass or probably potentially lose a little bit as the season goes Yeah. So don't be too paranoid about that. Look, in terms of structuring overall calorie intake is probably the most important thing, overall protein intake, in terms of across the 24 hours and the weeks and the months, is going to be super important. Same with carbohydrate intake, positioning it around your training. Yes, it's important. It's probably not the most important thing, not nearly as as important as with endurance training. That's pretty clear from what we're seeing the duration of the training sessions. Yeah, for most lifting sessions, you're not going to need to eat anything during this session, certainly taking in something before thinking about that, not going in faster. Again. It's not equivocal.   08:42 It doesn't mean you, everyone, will benefit from eating something going into training. However, the research supports, and certainly there's a correlation, if you do eat before a strength session, and this is certainly our philosophy at fuel in, eat something before, don't go in fasted. More likely you'll push more weight and you'll do more repetitions. What does that equate to? Probably better results   09:06 afterwards, making sure you're not you know, done to admit and fasting in and around strength training, if you want to again, increase strength and power and size, because if you neglect your body of fuel, protein, fat and carbohydrates, and obviously, total, that's total calories, then you won't get the results you need. So I think having a plan around a plan, you've got your training plan, you should have a nutrition plan. And I think again, I say this time and time again, I always laugh, off season, pre season, whatever you want to call it, oh, I don't need, I don't need nutrition plan. Are you going to eat? Isn't it easier to not have to think about the way in which you're eating and just follow a plan, much like you would with a training plan? Surely, that's just an easy way. We've got a.   10:00 Lot going on in our lives. Reduce the, you know, the guesswork, eliminate the decision paralysis, just get on with it. What's the one thing I'll say? And I was talking to Jonathan co founder about this, and it's, or I always go back to it. It's like, everyone wants this sexy approach to, like everything, and it's like, eat, well, eat with purpose. Train, well, train with purpose. Sleep, well, sleep with purpose. Like habit development, yeah, it's just not that cool, yeah, and it takes effort. You've got to be consistent with it to get the results. But when we see athletes do all those three things really well, you know, what happens? Great results. They improve. Yeah, it's, it's true. I want to broaden your horizon a little bit outside of, we went down the rabbit hole of of, you know, strength and building muscle. About a year ago, we had a conversation you had you said something really interesting for the athlete right now. You just talked about, there's so much stuff to be thinking about   11:09 in the middle of the season when an athlete is training for a race in the midst, by the way, because most of our listeners are time starved amateurs of life carrying on. They have this looming deadline. Training is at its highest intensity. You know, they have almost no time, and they're trying to crack the code of race fueling. We now remove that training a little bit less, a little less specificity on the training, at least so far as the race specificity, it's a great time. A year ago, you talked about, this is the time that you want to build the great platform of really high quality eating. Can you explain that concept a little bit like in off season, you want to get your daily eating dialed in when your caloric demands are a little bit lower. So just, just break that down, because I thought that was a real sort of unlock for many of our athletes last year. Ah, I see, yeah. I think in a lot of athletes don't eat well, well, a lot of people don't eat well. I think you've only got to look at the state of the world at the moment, whether it be the USA, Australia, or the UK or globally. So I think you know, what does that mean? I think again, bring it back into simple terms, yeah, aiming six to seven, six, probably six to nine serves of vegetables a day that no one's a vegetable. No one's doing it, no one's doing it. Look, I struggle to it's practically very challenging. Yeah, certainly can get to six lunch and dinner. Yep, can certainly just bulk out the plate with six, you know, six serves of veggies breakfast, if it is a cooked breakfast, throwing in extra a couple of handfuls of, you know, the spinach. Yeah, couple of handfuls of spinach, spring greens and whatnot. So that certainly increases fiber intake. Everyone talks about gut health. How do you improve gut health? It's not through probiotics. Even the research around probiotics is pretty scared these days in terms of showing clear evidence of effect. What seems to be showing effect is prebiotics. Prebiotics being fiber, certainly insoluble, soluble fiber, which the gut microbiome feeds on. That's what it thrives on. Where do you get fiber from you get it from vegetables. Even the research on fiber, like inulin, found in all these products, is a little bit iffy. So powdered, sort of fiber sources maybe don't do even though they say fiber, maybe they're not doing exactly what real fiber does, real real food. Yeah, like, that's the solution. Eat. Don't take a powder. Eat food. Tons of fiber. Eat real food. Yeah, so come to it. That's number one. Fiber, any fiber, fruit, vegetables, two, two pieces of fruit a day. Don't be scared of fruit. Yes, I always say no one got fat eating fruit. So fruit one of my favorite quotes as well. So there's fruit, there's number one, bedrock. Boil it down for it super simple, yeah, fruit and veggies, I think that's your mainstay. Now that's not going to that will provide great micronutrition. There is obviously some macro nutrition within that, in terms of carbohydrates. Certainly, leafy greens and those types of vegetables aren't going to contain a lot of carbohydrates, so you need to layer on top, but you can still choose other vegetables, potatoes, sweet potatoes, parsnips, root vegetables, beets, good layer those on top based on what you require, if you need more carbohydrates than that. Again, two sources, whole wheat breads, good quality bread, sourdoughs,   14:40 brown rices and a lot of that is dependent on your caloric expenditure, likes and training. Yeah, and again, if you talk, you're thinking of that second athlete who is maybe trying to improve body composition. Yes, calories matter. Yep, we're going to get into that. What about protein? Because what we're doing is laying the foundation. So we've got all these we've got fibers. It's.   15:00 Pressure, then you've got this throttling effect of that. Let's call it the more starchy carbohydrates you want to choose good quality ones. And that's dependent so that you want to think about that as a lever, almost where you you or a throttle. You throttle up the carbs as your caloric expenditure comes. What about proteins and fats? People are very interested in that, yep, and even just before that. So, you know, visually, when you're looking at either your plate is three quarters of your plate filled with vegetables, that's probably a good place to start. Or at least, you know, two to three fists of vegetables as well, if you, if you whichever visualization you want. So I think that's a really good place to start. How much of my plate is filled with, you know, fruits and vegetables is a good place then protein. I think protein is a really good place to start again from a foundational perspective, because you might be on low calorie or lower calorie intake again to try and improve body composition, but you can still take in moderate to high amounts of protein, which is still part of that calorie puzzle. So in doing that, not only you'll probably increase satiation, so your feelings of fullness, which prevents you hopefully snacking and taking in extra calories, if that is again, your goal,   16:16 you are hopefully improving immune function by taking in higher amounts of protein, which is going to be essential, because, you know, on a lower calorie intake, there is the potential for susceptibility to upper respiratory tract infections and whatnot, if you're continuously in a caloric deficit as a result of maybe too much training and things so. And again, male to female differences. Males may be a little bit more robust in terms of their ability to withstand that versus females, again, not going to get into the weeds of why that is. It's just what we observe,   16:52 protein for building lean mass, essential for retaining lean mass, essential   17:00 for bone health, essential. You hear tales of our increased protein intake, it causes leaching of calcium from bones. Actually, that's not the truth. Look at the research. The research says actually, those individuals who are taking more protein tend to have better bone mineral density. So again, from a habit perspective, taking in and plant protein fine. The difference, again, it used to be our plant protein is inferior to animal protein. Actually, it doesn't really, it's not really supported by the research these days, as long as you're getting the equivalent of total protein from plant sources as animal now, in order to get more of a challenge to get the plant protein means you've got to eat a hell of a lot more, and often with plant protein sources, well, what do they come with? They come with more fat, and in particular, more carbohydrates, which now makes it difficult if you're trying to keep total calories down. Yeah. So that's where the plant diet becomes more of a, not a struggle, but more of a puzzle, and certainly requires more planning in order to do it. Well, yep, because you can be a plant based, a plant based athlete, and eat terribly. You can eat Margarita pizzas. Yeah, you can eat Doritos. You can drink Coke and you can eat all the white bread in the world. Yep, you're a vegan athlete. Yeah, congratulations. You also eat like crap, yep. So again, foundational, good quality food, whether you're plant based or whether you're animal based, thinking about the quality, thinking about, then how does my calorie intake work with that. And then, what am I trying to achieve? So on, on, on a simple thing, you said, a nice sort of visualization of three quarters of plate or two fists of vegetables. Is there any algorithm or rule of thumb so far as just general people, what? What should they be consuming on a day to day basis, of protein? So hand of proteins and nice little hand in every meal that they consume. I mean, again, total size of the athlete now, yeah, but it's a good work. What you weigh in pounds?   19:13 Protein consuming protein in grams per day. That's a nice little look. That's somewhere between two and three grams per kilo, exactly. So I weighed just under 200 pounds. So therefore I'm aiming somewhere one, 150 to 200 Well, it's definitely 150 Yeah. You know, if you're, what do you say? Yeah, 200 pounds, 100? Well, I wouldn't like to say that much, no more like 193   19:33 so let's go towards so 190 to 210 Yeah, is your range? Think of ranges? I think everyone's like, Oh, I, you know, obviously we give, we give a target for someone. So, yeah, 180 grams for me, 200 grams for you, it's a target. If you get either side of that, 20 grams, let's call it 10% you're doing well, you're never going to nail Exactly. And I think again, like athletes, i.   20:00 Get messages from some athletes. And obviously we work with a type A personality, I think, and with triathletes. And,   20:09 you know, oh, I missed it by five grams. Yes, dude. Like, not only is tracking like, there's going to be some degree of error in tracking, whether it's your visual what you're doing from a weighing perspective, from the back of the label, that isn't 100% accurate trends, trends are important. So yes, hand of protein, the hand of protein, should weigh roughly 200 grams, which is what, seven ounces. Yep, something like that thickness of a deck of cards,   20:40 something like that on your plate. Okay, give or take, depending on how big your hand is, maybe weigh it the first time, chicken breast, one. But again, visualizing on your plate so big piece of protein, plant or animal, lots of veggies, you know, some fruit on there. Starchy carbs are layered in based on what you need, okay, and then just typically, the fat just take care of itself through the protein. So if you're an animal, if you are an omnivore, and you consume animal protein, there's a good chance a lot of fat will be maintained on there. Now, again, you can add good quality fats, so olive oils, avocado oils, avocado olives, omega threes through if you think of the Smash acronym, do you know the Smash acronym? No, no shock. I do. Actually, sardines, mackerel, anchovies, salmon, herring, best sources of mega threes. That's there's another, there's another phrase of that issue, which is called Hell on Earth.   21:41 I love my omega three. I like my sorting. So I recommend these a lot. Fantastic sources of fats in terms of omega threes, fantastic source of protein. Include them. You know, do you want to swallow a pill every day or several pills to get your Omega three core   22:01 intake? Or can you start consuming one of those five types of oily fish in your daily consumption? And I say to people like, try and eat fish once a day, and they're like, Whoa, I can't eat fish once a day. And I'm like, Well, you got three meals in the day. Why can't you? And then actually, if they start to build it into their habit, whether it's breakfast with some smoked salmon, some sardines, some tin salmon, some smoked mackerel, some pickled herring. Okay, well, there was five options for five different things. For breakfast, maybe you could do that in lunch. Obviously, don't want to be that co worker who brings in tin fish. I got told this by Mel, my partner. She's like, I went into a co working space, and she's like, I said, Oh, I'm gonna pack my lunch. Because I packed my lunch, because that's what I do. But she's like, I packed some sardines and that she just took them out. She would Don't be that guy. Don't be that guy. Be that guy. So probably if you do work in a in a an office space, breakfast or dinner at home with your smelly fish. But you can certainly bring it into your habit formation, your daily nutrition intake, eating more fish. I think it's a wonderful thing to include in your dietary intake. So that would be another habit that I would certainly, you know, start to instill from a food perspective, you know, where do you get your omega threes from? You can get a lot of it from fish, if you stick to those five fish in the Smash acronym. How about beyond the the athlete, and I guess, to finish the athlete with these foundational habits, if you really start to build in a really good platform of health as training demands go up,   23:45 is it? Is it a nice rule of thumb? I know it's not the bullseye, that as your training demands go up and you start hitting more intensity, more hours, basically, then you're layering on top of these habits. So these habits never change. That's your foundation of eating. That's just bad quality eating, and then the throttle is really adding calories on top of it with a probably a high ratio of carbohydrates. Is that a nice rule of thumb? Perfect, exactly. And that's exactly how we do it. To keep it simple, if you'll end so high to moderate protein, your fat tends to look after itself. Additional fats in as we discussed, as required base of good quality carbohydrates and fiber and whatnot. And then layering in so it goes from a red meal, as we would describe it, lower carbohydrate, to a yellow meal, which you've layered in some carbohydrates on top of the vegetable, from the vegetables that could be a piece of toast, yeah, breakfast, okay, that's another, you know, two pieces of toast gonna give you what, 30 grams of carbs. Great lunch, cupped hand of, you know, a cup of cooked brown rice. Yep, lay it in dinner. Could be some quinoa couscous. Could be a.   25:00 Rice. It could be pasta, but it's just layering on top of your foundation. And that's the simple thing. It goes from a red meal to a yellow, and from a yellow to a green, which, again, every athlete loves to see some green on their their plan. It doesn't mean green is pasta only. It doesn't mean green is pizza only it. You've got all these wonderful grains that you can choose from these days that you walk into any supermarket and before, I mean, you only had rice or pasta. Now you've got couscous, quinoa, Farrow,   25:35 amaranth. You've got all these different grains that you can explore, and they will provide you with great quality carbohydrates, lots of carbohydrates, fiber, as required. Obviously, you can reduce fiber in and around heavy training sessions and races, but on a daily basis, taking in large amounts of volume is going to help you with gut health, and that's important. It's going to help Everyone's searching for this, the average person takes in less than 15 grams of fiber per day, the recommended amount somewhere between 35 and 45 grams of fiber. How do you get that   26:13 good quality, good quality food? So I think if we extract all it, and I'll go into coach mode and just hopefully, as a listener, just remember this, which is, I think the biggest mistake that I see is that athletes, particularly, because we're focused on athletes right now, think about healthy eating, and then there is a light switch, almost like this, the other side of the moon, The Dark Side of The Moon of now I'm training. It's just carbs, carbs, carbs. So it's pizzas, it's fries, it's potatoes. Get the calories in, if you can just shift your relationship with that and think, no matter what is occurring, healthy eating, the bedrock those vegetables you talked about, tons of fiber, appropriate proteins, and then you layer on top of this foundation. That's why it's called a foundation, the additional carbohydrates from the world of sources that there are, that's where you start to get the unlock. And this is the time to get the bedrock right. This is the time you're not going to suddenly shift your eating habits when you're six weeks out of a race and you're thinking about this, I think this is the great time for habit development. And I mean, what I really want to stress here as well, there is not this notion of Clean Eating versus dirty eating. And yeah, Jan and I have had many conversations around this, like, what is clean eating? And he certainly is on that side of the spectrum that is very focused on clean eating, and yes, I believe in good quality food. It doesn't mean you need to exclude other foods at the expense of calories, if calories are required, however, for again, if we think back to the carbohydrate conversation around how much carbohydrates do a lot of athletes need, then it's similar to total calories for how much do a lot of athletes need as well, in day to day setting, if you're doing 20 plus hours,   28:14 probably even over 15 hours, yes, your caloric requirement is going to be much considerable. If you are this pretty typical, like, I don't know, but 15 hours, a lot of training for me with a full time job, I don't get anywhere near that these days. Like time starved somewhere between six and 10 hours exactly, it is actually interesting. Like, your energy intake can be majority of time accomplished with really great quality fruit, vegetables, good quality, proteins, fats and whatnot. Now in session fueling, don't neglect it exactly. And yes, there is this separation, but there's also this layering, realization that it's okay to eat, gels, drink, carbohydrate drinks, whatnot, high glycemic, processed, ultra processed carbohydrates in sessions that require it is you can eat all the vegetables and fruits in the world, but if you then don't fuel those sessions correctly, you're going to come unstuck. Eventually. You'll last for a while and then make people might be going, Oh, you look amazing, because maybe you are stripping down fat, but it will bite you in the bum eventually, eventually. And so fuel those sessions correctly based on the intensity of the duration.   29:35 Fuel outside of that with total calories, your macro nutrient breakdown, like we've described, with those foundational sort of elements to it, and when you combine those, that's when you see results. And I think whether you're in off season, pre season or season, it's again, it's just refocusing. It's just changing your focus to what you're trying to achieve. And you.   30:00 Yeah, that's again, coming full circle in this conversation. It's like nutrition is so central to everything that you're trying to achieve, so don't neglect it. Just because you don't have a race, yep, just because you don't have a race does not mean nutrition is now not a focus. Yes, you can pull back. You don't need to track everything's super hard, but at least have a structure, because that structure means that you don't have to think so much exactly, and it just allows you to get on with the fun stuff, training, sleeping well and eating well. So on a broader horizon, want to talk, and this still sweeps up a lot of athletes, but it's not athlete specific folks that are looking to improve body composition. You talked about a bedrock of great eating habits. Shift the conversation a little bit. You don't need to retread over a ground that you've already trodden over in the front part of the show. You talked about fiber, vegetables, proteins. What about any considerations for someone, athlete or otherwise, by the way, the key considerations and perhaps some of the pitfalls to avoid, if the goal, the mission is to improve body composition, what's some of your general advice for folks that are looking to actually improve their body composition? I think sleep's a big one. And I know that sort of sleeps always one of those interesting ones with nutrition. Is it nutrition? Not really, but it has such a strong relationship, as I've described before, with nutrition, that I think what we're seeing with the research as well, if you have limited amount of sleep, it will make you, or force your brain, to think about hedonistic choices, salty and sweet. So I think sleep is one of those unrecognized like key elements if you and it seems to have an impact on modulation or prioritization of fat as a fuel source versus, say, carbohydrates as well. So if you want to try and improve the ability to use fat as a fuel source, then potentially sleep could be one of those key elements to think about. So I think sleep and time in bed is not sleep. Yep. Okay. So if everyone tracking either with an aura ring, a whoop or a watch, I would, you know, suggest that look at your time in bed and at least minus one hour from that is, that's the typical, typical, that's what. That's an easy sort of thing. Okay, I'm in bed for nine hours. Okay, you get eight hours sleep   32:27 time. Now, you could talk about the the synchronization of circadian rhythm and things like that, and stages, but I think at least as a habit, to start with time asleep, yep, and even if you don't track, just use that general rule of thumb without going down a rabbit hole. No, I'm   32:45 not gonna You don't need to talk about it, but it is really a key consideration for a woman in perimenopause who, because of a host of reasons, has a really hard time   32:58 getting really good sleep quality and often, is sitting with the body, unable to get into a parasympathetic state, in other words, a really rested state. And I think that that has a correlation to a lot of the challenges around body composition as well, like just that connection of body and sleep is just constantly in a high stress environment. Yeah. I mean, I again, I haven't seen a lot of the research on that, so I'm not going to comment on it, but we can talk about perimenopause and menopausal women. So something about body composition, what we have seen in the research, and there's a cool study that came out of Sydney University, which looked at the reason, and again, I hear this from menopausal women a lot. I can't lose weight, I can't shift body fat. Look at your protein intake. Yeah, now when, and it seems obvious, the study came out that when menopausal women did not hit their high protein intake, and I think it was over 1.8 grams per kilo, byte, so high again, in that recommendation, where we push it, which is about one gram per pound. So at least look again that simple, think of whatever you weigh in pounds trying to eat that somewhere between that two and three grams per kilo body weight, which is what we push at fuel in if they don't hit that, what happens is, well, they will choose or reach for fat or carbohydrate sources of food. Now you think, Well, what else they're going to reach for? Okay, makes sense. However, fat calorie dense, the most calorie dense macro nutrient. So instantly, if you over consume or eat too much of that fatty food, calorie intake goes up. Carbohydrates, super easy to over consume total quantity of carbohydrates. So again, total calorie intake goes up. So it's not that it's nothing magic about this. Again, it comes down to calories when you neglect protein. Okay, again, it probably keeps you feeling fuller, but it has some other impact on, say, the thermic effect of food and slice bumps.   35:00 Metabolism, whatnot. But if you don't hit that, the problem is a cascading in from a practical element. And it's like it, I had to read the study about four or five times to say, get what they were saying. But it's that practical element you just over consume fatty and carbohydrate food types which pushes total calorie intake up, yeah, as now, does that apply to perimenopausal young females? Probably. Does it apply to young males and older males? Probably. So just think about that, the bedrock, if body, I mean, I guess the body one thing is, body composition is a goal.   35:43 Protein. Eat with eat with protein and your fiber on your and what does fiber do? Yep, fiber fills you up. Yeah. And again, are you hitting that 4045, grams of fiber intake per day? Hell no. Hell no. Now people aren't. Am I going to recommend that you go from 10 to 15 grams of fiber to 45 grams of fiber a day. No, because you're going to feel very full of some Yeah.   36:10 Build it up. Bit like carbohydrate intake on the bike or the run, yeah, build it up. Build up. Layer it in. So I say from a body composition standpoint, yes, protein we talk about a lot. It is super important, I think, from that perspective, what about dehydration? Because a lot of folks walk around like dried sponges, and one of the symptoms of dehydration is hunger. And so that must have an impact as well, because on daily life, most people forget about training. We're not talking about athletes here. Most people do not consume. We just came back from a workshop and the working with a leadership team. So these are high performers in life. And across the 12, people were working with the average daily consumption of fluids that they were self reflecting on in the weeks in tracking in the couple of weeks leading in was about half a liter to a liter a day, just not enough water, especially if you look if you're stuck indoors, in air conditioning and things like that exactly, might be losing a lot more fluid than what you think about. So, yeah, I mean, we it's interesting, isn't it? We have reminders in fuel, in for hydrate, and some people are like, I don't want that reminder in there. And we were thinking of making it optional, but actually we're going to keep it in as a mandatory just reminder, because it does actually, well, I shouldn't say actually, it does remind you, oh, actually, I haven't drunk any, and I'm thinking to myself now I've had two coffees and not one drop of water when we're sitting here without any water on the table for a run this morning. Yeah. I'm like, I am, actually, yeah. So I think fluid intake, and as you mentioned, if you are dehydrated, that could mimic hunger. So you go and drink a liter or half a liter of fluid, suddenly you're like, actually, I'm not that hungry anymore. Now, could it be boredom? The other thing to think about from body composition, you're sitting down all day, you're in front of the computer. Oh, there's a packet of chips or crisps next to you. What do you do? You eat it because you're bored and you're it's that bored, hunger. Get up, go for a walk, do some air squats, do some push ups, something like that. Suddenly you're like, oh, maybe I'm not. So there is there? I think there's a big psychological element. There's other impacts on body composition. For folks that are amateur athletes, I believe, where, you know, neat, yeah, non exercise, activity, thermogenesis, we we went through the with this leadership group as well, and we tracked and and we looked at the five folks that were consistently training to some level. And so there was one person that was really into group fitness. Okay? They did something every day, someone else, couple of folks that happened to be triathletes, etc, but their average steps per day outside of their one hour of exercise that they typically did per day was incredibly low. So they drove to the office, they walked to the office, they sat in the office. They're not burning any calories. They're moving around. It was unbelievable. It was three to 4000 steps a day. Then they would go and exercise an hour on the trainer. I think that's a factor of particularly in America, I would say, with the infrastructure at all the cities here and not set up for walking, etc, etc, that's probably another component. When you think about body composition, it's just increasing your daily movement, yeah. And I think separating,   39:24 you know, separating out exercise from activity, yeah, exactly. That is something that I tend to when, if I'm coaching an athlete is talking about that don't just you can do 45 minutes group exercise and then sit on the couch or at your desk the rest of the day, and again, working from home in post COVID, you get up from the bed, you walk to the shower, you walk to the kitchen, you walk to your breakfast table, you sit on the couch, but all up, you could look at your watch at the end of the day and go, Oh, 1500 steps exactly. That's not enough activity, even with a 45 minute exercise.   40:00 Size session, your actual total, again estimated, and again you can take pinch of salt with any estimation. Is that. I mean, it might only be 1800 calories for the entire day, but because you've sat in your house, you've got all these snacks around you. You sit at your desk eating that. You have your breakfast, your lunch, your dinner, you have a few snacks. Before you know it, you've consumed two and a half 3000 calories, and you wonder why, despite exercising every day, things aren't going the way you want. So   40:30 probably my take home for body composition is perception versus reality. Now, if you're struggling from a body composition perspective track like, do some favor. And I know the rest of your life, I know, but, and a lot of there will be the kickback, Oh, you don't need to track, no, actually account for what goes in your mouth, at least for several weeks, and be meticulous about how you're actually tracking that. And then you will start to realize, Oh, my God,   41:02 you know, four tablespoons of peanut butter on my toast in the morning. Maybe I don't need that. Maybe I don't need half an avocado on my salad. Maybe I don't need that. Again, portion control is really important, and   41:21 yes, there can be that argument that tracking can create all sorts of negative habits, and I don't disagree, however, it can also give great insight to an individual about what they're doing on a daily basis. And I think again, when it's managed and used correctly, it can be empowering. Can be completely empowering. And then, as we described, you can use other strategies, visualization techniques. As you get better, like I don't have to track every day, I can look at my plate and go, Okay, I've got enough veggies. I've got enough fruit. I've eaten this in a day. I understand the amount of protein around racing. Okay, I've got a specific purpose now. So it's horses for courses. If your focus is body composition, then dial it in until you get to the point where you're very, very comfortable and you are where you are from a health perspective, again, improvement in body composition is not just losing weight, it's increasing or maintaining lean mass as you reduce body fat, visceral component. That's a key component. I know we've talked about azem pick stuff like that in the past, and we won't go down that rabbit hole. I did write an article about this, which was recent Jan, and I talked about it was,   42:39 I think azem Pick is fascinating, yep.   42:42 However, the potential drawbacks on it is, yes, you lose rapid amounts of weight in the form of fat, but also at the cost of lean mass. Now, what does that do as you come off azempic and potentially go back up in weight, but that weight is gained in fat, but you've lost huge amounts of muscle.   43:04 That's where potential issues could come out in the long term. So I think it's a space to watch, and again, it's a rabbit hole. I'll give you my one minute perspective, and we'll wrap up, which is, it's fascinating, and the next 10 years, it's the first time in decades that obesity has gone down in America, mostly related to the GLP or azepic family of drugs. There's all sorts of interesting stuff emerging and emerging, and we don't talk about it with of what it's doing with clarity and cognitive function. And is there anything there?   43:38 I don't terms a negative in no terms of positives that you like, that they're starting to think that they understand we don't understand the long term potential risks of it. It's really interesting of this balance between long term health risks and long term benefits, when you're talking about a total population that is 50% overweight or obese, and beyond 50% well beyond 50% and I mean, look, 93% are metabolically unhealthy, correct? The biggest catalyst for anyone that is, I guess, the only recommendation I would have if anyone is considering this is like anything else, if you only think about it as the drug, as a catalyst for change, and then you are likely going down a cul de sac. It is a tool that for some people, might theoretically be useful, but it needs to come in, and this is one of the the frustrations. It needs to come in conjunction with serious habit change around a lot of what we talked about, nutritional habits, exercise, movement and daily activity, sleep, etc. And then for some people, there might be a case where you look at the guidelines for it, it's meant to be done in conjunction with lifestyle intervention that no one's doing. It's not a weight loss drug. And I mean, you talk about those interventions.   45:00 Patients that has to be what you eat on a daily basis, like and building those everything we talked about weights training like, my personal view is cardio is out the window. Yep, that point in time when you're on that drug, you are lifting heavy, repetitive weights for three to four times a week to try and retain or maintain or increase potentially lean mass, high protein intake to train again, try and offset any losses in lean mass with you all that are occurring and strength first you are going to come off this drug at some point. Yeah, it's expensive, but B you probably once you hit your goal, then you come off any drug for life, hopefully. Now, hopefully, like most dieting, you know, programs in that if you don't have the habits built in, lo and behold, you yo, yo, you bounce back. And it could be disaster, with negative consequences, as you said, because you might have lost lean body management. So it look. It's a get. I'm not an expert in JLP ones. You know, it's fascinating to read about. It's interesting to comment on. And I think there's going to be a lot more. I mean, there seems to be a lot more. I'm seeing research paper after research papers coming out, but we don't have the longitudinal studies at this point in time. We talked about hydration, all a bit key. We talked about protein. We talked about fiber. Is there anything else for folks that are just looking to improve the longevity piece?   46:30 Well, so the longevity piece, I think first and foremost,   46:36 things like intermittent fasting, fasting, all that. No, it's not a panacea for longevity. I think that's pretty clear. I think even some of the experts in longevity, you will have heard them, they've talked about their mistakes with intermittent fasting, fasting, intermittent fasting and time restricted fasting. It's a tool in the toolbox for those individuals. Again, most of the research is around metabolically unfit, overweight, male, female individuals middle age, and it has some impact on those individuals. Again, it's not clear cut the difference between intermittent fasting, time restricted fasting and caloric restriction pretty much the same when it's all equated in terms of energy balance. So   47:20 don't think that you have to do that to live longer. I think first and foremost, resveratrol, I was talking about this the other day, again, another, you know, stake in its heart. It's not some magic compound that's going to make you live longer, yeah, do you know what makes you live longer? Exercise, exercise changes, telomeres. It is the number, number one consistent thing by a country mile on terms of longevity and reduction of disease. Well, you're 70 are yes, I'm 72 and I'm co founder of the Marin chapter of AARP, and we have got a great society. It's a wonderful question, but you can impact like, I love how you know, like Bora Garmin, they all give you your age, yeah, don't they, yeah. Where do you sit on that? And look, it's a made up number metric. I'm sure they're using some algorithm to do it. But where do you actually sit? If you want to again, if you're tracking things, what does your age actually say on that, are you seven years younger, eight years younger, or actually, are you older? I read a report for a client of mine the other day. They're, you know, based on all their heart testing and their cholesterol and their blood sugar, isn't that they're 10 years older than what they are.   48:38 Now, again, that's a theoretical age, but telling. It's telling. So again, look at the data with everything that you because you're hell bent on living forever, which I don't know why you'd want to do that, but   48:53 look at what you're doing. Are you exercising daily? Doesn't have to be mad, but doing something. Are you exercising? Are you staying active? Are you eating, those foundational principles we talked about, and are you sleeping? That's it. Probably the only other thing from longevity is stress. Stress Management. Stress can be noxious and stress can be productive. Again, I think a lot of individuals hear the word stress and think it's bad. Exactly what is exercise? Exercise is stress on the body. What does stress do with the right amount of stress and the right nutrition, it creates adaptation in a positive way. So stress on the body, not allowing it to be too high, not allowing it to be too low, getting that balance right. Again, I can think of training peaks in particular, they do a nice little graph that shows you where your stress is and how it's relating to adaptation and where you should be going. I actually looked at it more recently. I was like, that's interesting. Is the bill towards the marathon? Pretty much been on point. Feel good. Stress gets too high, you get sick, you get injured.   50:00 And stress gets too low. You d train you. You get worse than what you're trying to achieve. So I think those four things, that's what will make you live longer. There you go. Great way to finish. Well done. Thank you very much, my friend. Thanks, mate. See you.

103: Why Online Calorie Calculators are Sabotaging Your Weight Loss  PLEASE listen before you totally unravel during the holiday season! Weight fluctuations do not mean that you're not losing weight. I see too many people think that a higher number on the scale means that they've failed and then they give up all together. If you know that it's just a fluid fluctuation and stick with your healthy habits, you'll likely see a lower weight a couple of days later! Coach Lacey and I break all of this down for you today.  Some key takeaways from this episode include: Rapid weight loss is not sustainable and often not healthy. We lose muscle when we are in a state of rapid weight loss as our bodies are metabolizing muscle in order to survive. This is not what we want. We need to maintain and increase our muscles. The more muscle you have, the higher your metabolism will be. Muscles also prevent injury and disease, and provide stamina and energy. When you go on vacation or out to eat a lot, you could see a rise on the scale. It doesn't necessarily mean you've gained fat but could be a result of increased consumption of starchy foods. Starchy foods like carbohydrates cause our bodies to retain water. This isn't necessarily a bad thing, just something to be aware of. For women, your weight will fluctuate during your period. This is a predictable cycle and one you should track. Get in tune with your body. When do you have cravings? When do you feel bloated? Like all cycles, the weight will build up during parts of your cycle and then fall off during other parts. Know when these changes occur, be aware of them and expect them.   Hi!

What if I told you, that the secret to a longer and happier life, is as simple as what you put on your plate?  Eating well, is not only good for your body, but also for your mind, and your overall well-being.  A balanced diet, provides you with many benefits, such as energy, growth, repair, prevention, and enjoyment.  As the old saying goes, “You are what you eat.” In today's episode, we'll delve into the importance of well-rounded nutrition, and offer tips on how to achieve it. Let's start with the concept. What Is A Balanced Diet?  A balanced diet, is one that gives your body all the nutrients it needs, to work properly. This includes macronutrients such as protein, carbohydrates, and fats, and micronutrients, including vitamins and minerals.  In accordance with the NHS, a balanced diet consists of: Plenty of fruits and vegetables (at least five portions a day). Starchy foods: bread, rice, potatoes, and pasta (wholegrain). Proteins: meat, fish, eggs, beans, and pulses. Dairy: milk, cheese, and yoghurt (low-fat). Healthy fats: olive oil, nuts, seeds, and avocados. Fluids: water, tea, coffee, and sugar-free drinks. A balanced diet also limits or avoids: Added sugars: sweets, cakes, biscuits, and soft drinks. Saturated fats: butter, cream, and fatty meats. Salt: salted snacks, sauces, and processed foods. Alcohol (no more than 14 units a week for both men and women). https://todaysfocusofattention.com/why-is-it-important-to-have-a-balanced-diet/ Listen to the full episode...

Jason Prall delivers a sensational presentation in this episode on the fascinating topic of human longevity! Rarely have I interviewed such a powerhouse guest, so fasten your seatbelts because this guy brings the heat and you can hardly catch your breath as we cover a tremendous range of topics all centered around longevity. Jason is well-known for his documentary series called Human Longevity Project, and he also recently released a book called Beyond Longevity: A Human Plan For For Healing Faster, Feeling Better, and Thriving At Any Age. We cover so many other topics aside from the basics of eating healthy, exercise, and moderating stress, and Jason's work has led him to doing an incredible amount of research into these topics, which makes him an incredibly passionate and knowledge resource. We have a really practical and grounded conversation that also incorporates elements of appreciation, spirituality, aging gracefully, and according to Jason, “paying attention to all the energetic inputs to highlight the areas that provide the biggest opportunity for improvement.”   QUOTES: “If we wish to thrive in the modern world, we must create a mental, emotional, physical, and energetic environment that is congruent with this natural lifecycle.”   TIMESTAMPS: Jason brings to us all the latest information on longevity. [00:56] The Human Longevity Project came about from looking at combining all aspects of our current life as well as the spiritual concepts and a deeper understanding of biology. [03:30] What have we learned from the people in the Blue Zone? [07:50] Why do would we want to live to 100? [09:29] We have to concentrate on how we deal with the effects of today's lifestyle with technology and other things that trigger our nervous system. We have adapted to the environment that we're in. [21:26] We all have the capacity to change our mental and emotional framework. [27:03] Do the people in the Blue Zone naturally feel grateful and are they naturally able to manage their attention and priorities without a Google calendar? [28:30] In our culture there is actually an underlying stressor keeping our sympathetic system elevated on a chronic basis.  [34:15] The foods that people eat in different cultures vary and they are not labeled bad or good.  All foods are bad or good in the right context. Each person is different. [37:50] The people in the Blue Zones eat what is available.  They can get away with eating more Starchy carbohydrates because they are on the move all day long. [43:57] There won't be Blue Zones like in the past because modern western influence has emerged. [47:31] It is important to pay attention to all the energetic inputs that provide biggest opportunities for improvement wherever you stand now. Pay attention to the circadian rhythm. [54:28] What did you see that was the impact of Western society as you were going back and forth between these primitive cultures and places like New York City?  [01:01:26] The first seven years of one's life lays the groundwork for longevity. [01:07:48] The depth of knowledge and awareness that those centenarians Jason interviewed have, not only acknowledging about their culture and their life and the human experience from their perspective, but they also seem to understand it. [01:18:50] They have a community of safety. They trust that things are going to be fine. [01:21:36] Living a youthful life, hanging out with younger people and pets all help you keep up that youthful spirit. [01:28:44] You have an opportunity every day to establish a new way of being.

Episode 40: What about Fruits and Starchy Vegetables?In this episode learn about fruits and starchy vegetable. Berries and the less sweet fruits are allowed on Keto and there is more latitude with Low Carb, but it is important to know some issues with fruit especially if you have been diagnosed with  NAFLD - Non-Alcoholic Fatty Liver Disease.

Diet and nutrition are a cornerstone of health and wellness. Small changes can have big impacts! With so much research and so many opinions, many people still struggle with what they should be eating. When looking for help, it's difficult to wade through the various schools of thought since people become entrenched in their dietary camps: keto, carnivore, vegetarian, Mediterranean, etc. Recent trends have been leaning toward decreasing or eliminating carbohydrates in general. But, if history has taught us anything, vilifying specific food groups can have consequences. Are all carbs bad? If our industry espouses a personalized approach to health, shouldn't that include diet? In today's episode, we discuss the good and bad of carbohydrates – and more specifically starch. We discuss the different types of starch and the fact that not all carbs are created equally Today on The Lab Report: 2:25 Why are we vilifying carbohydrates? 5:00 Not all carbs are created equally – let's talk starch basics 6:45 Starch digestibility and glycemic index 8:30 Slowly digestible and resistant starch 12:00 Effects on the microbiome 15:15 Starchy foods and Retrogradation 19:00 Glycoalkaloids, potato safety, corn starch 21:10 Question of the Day Is there anything nutritious in a potato?

It's normal for your weight to fluctuate, but when you're focused on losing weight this can be a hard fact to swallow. Luckily, the number on the scale doesn't reflect all that is going on inside your body when you are making healthy lifestyle changes. Millennial Nutritionist fans have asked for an episode on weight fluctuations and here it is! Illa and TMN Coach Lacey Anderson break down everything you need to know about weight fluctuations including what's a normal daily weight range, how eating out affects your weight (did someone say sodium?), water weight-loss vs fat weight-loss, and the impact of menstruation on weight fluctuation. Plus they dive into an article on the connections between staying active and disease prevention. Lacy Anderson has a BS and MS in Nutrition Science and has a clinical nutrition and nutrition education background. Join our Millennial Living Membership for healthy recipes, grocery lists, monthly challenges, and more! https://themillennialnutritionist.com/membership Links mentioned: Article: Stay Active For Mental and Physical Health 3 Things to keep in mind with weight fluctuations: Rapid weight loss is not sustainable and often not healthy. We lose muscle when we are in a state of rapid weight loss as our bodies are metabolizing muscle in order to survive. This is not what we want. We need to maintain and increase our muscles. The more muscle you have, the higher your metabolism will be. Muscles also prevent injury and disease, and provide stamina and energy. When you go on vacation or out to eat a lot, you could see a rise on the scale. It doesn't necessarily mean you've gained fat but could be a result of increased consumption of starchy foods. Starchy foods like carbohydrates cause our bodies to retain water. This isn't necessarily a bad thing, just something to be aware of. For women, your weight will fluctuate during your period. This is a predictable cycle and one you should track. Get in tune with your body. When do you have cravings? When do you feel bloated? Like all cycles, the weight will build up during parts of your cycle and then fall off during other parts. Know when these changes occur, be aware of them and expect them. Hi! I'm Illa (MS, RDN) and I am a Registered Dietitian who provides weight loss coaching for millennials. There are so many health companies and fad diets out there that want to convince you to buy their products, but I'm here to show you that you don't need any products to lose weight! It just takes a little behavior change and food tracking.

Hello again Fellow Gen X Enthusiasts,In this episode Johnny travels to a TV room far far away to have a talk with a young padawan learner named Mr. Producer.  Johnny and Mr. Producer discussed what Star Wars means to 2 members of different generations.  As a GenXer Star Wars is a movie genre that encapsulates a degree of nerdom that was only available in short supply back in the 70s and 80s.  But today Star Wars is offered to be consumed in every possible way.  Back in Gen X times Star Wars was only offered in movies, VHS tapes, cereals, toys, lunch boxes, and an arcade game.  Today Star Wars is offered in many many more mediums.  Thanks for listening to the Gen X Talk Podcast with Starchy and Johnny.

Hello again Fellow Gen X Enthusiasts, Starchy came over to have some supper with Johnny and to chat while Johnny was preparing meat in skillets on the stove.  It was deeelishhous!!   We chatted about a few things with regard to what is going on and how it relates to us being Gen X people.  Thanks for listening to The Gen X Talk Podcast with Johnny Pendejo and Starchy Archie.  #thegenxtalkpodcastwithjohnnypendejoandstarchyarchie#solielsparklingbeverage

Hello Gen X Enthusiasts,Starchy and Johnny got together to chat about stuff related to being engulfed in sneezy allergies.  Johnny became a shopper at another big box store because of a really bad customer service experience.  Thanks for listening to our podcast #genxtalkwithstarchyarchieandjohnnypendejo

Hello Fellow Gen X Enthusiasts,Starchy and Johnny got together again to chat about stuff that went from watching Sanford and Son to eating nacho cheese Doritos and lightly salted Fritos.  The duo also chatted about basketball documentaries that have been made in recent years.  And how geography can be fun.     Johnny was introduced awhile ago to Jordan Peterson by Starchy and actually purchased and has been listening to the audiobook "12 Rules For Life".  Listening to that book has been quite the eye opener for Johnny because Jordan Peterson himself reads the book.Johnny and Starchy also started to chat about dieting and why unprocessed foods are better to eat than processed foods.  #genxtalkwithstarchyarchieandjohnnypendejo  

Hello again all 3 of our Gen X Talk podcast listeners.  Starchy Archie and Johnny Pendejo got together for the first time in 2022 to record a podcast episode centered around the rise and collapse of the San Fransicko Fortiners during the 2021 National Foosball League Playoffs.  Starchy shared his disdain for a certain quarterback that is from a certain northern california town, who also went to a certain bay area hippie cauldron college, who plays for a very prominent upper Midwest tundra bay city by the lake.  Subsequently the football gods did not shine favourably on the Cinncinnati Bengals during the most recent Stuper Bowl.  The most epic game was when the the Fortiners beat the Snow Bay Packers during a series of snow flurries at the end of the game.  Johnny shared how difficult the year has been so far and hopes that going forward the new year will get better.  Starchy is doing well and is learning more and more about concrete, politics, and adding fruit juice to whiskey.  He is also adding to his ever largening Richard Nixon, Ronald Reagan, and Margaret Thatcher hard cover library. They also settled the debate over who could have been cast as The Fonz on TV's Happy Days.  Thanks to all 3 of the people that regularly listen to our podcast.  We love you more than you know.  #genxtalkwithstarchyarchieandjohnnypendejo

Hello again Gen X Enthusiasts, In this episode Starchy and Johnny got together to discuss the most amazing and classic movie that celebrates the trials and tribulations of getting home for Thanksgiving.  Released in 1987, Planes Trains and Automobiles was directed by John Hughes and starred Steve Martin as Neal Page and John Candy as Del Griffith.  The movie was a perfectly written comedy to be the ideal example of how bad a business trip can go, especially when attempting to get home in time to celebrate Thanksgiving.  This amazing movie means a lot to Johnny and in this episode he described what he did to make an audio stereo cassette soundtrack during his first year of junior college after being at KYDS 91.5 FM radio in Sacramento during his senior year of high screwl back in 1991.  Johnny went as far as trying to make his own stereo cassette soundtrack after purchasing a used vinyl record of the original motion picture soundtrack of Planes Trains and Automobiles  Johnny also describes the attention that he paid to the progression of the movie and explains how over the years he has tried to remember to keep track of where and what Neal and Del are doing between Tuesday afternoon and Thursday afternoon of Thanksgiving week.  Thank you for listening to the Gen X Talk Podcast with Starchy Archie and Johnny Pendejo.  Special shout out to the Buzzsprouts chap from Brooklyn New York who said that he would listen to our podcast last week.  We hope he enjoys this episode as well.  #genxtalkwithstarchyarchieandjohnnypendejo#planestrainsandautomobiles#johnhughes#nealpage#delgriffith         

Hello again Gen X Enthusiasts,It was a glorious cool day on a certain Sunday in the middle of November 2021.  Starchy and Johnny had their grown up walk to a corporate coffee establishment house to enjoy a steaming hot cup of latte.  A bonus was when Starchy enjoyed an amazing chicken and waffle sandwich.  Later Johnny used the restroom for the 4th time that day.   Our hosts remembered what it was like to visit a certain dry goods / general merchandise retail store back in the 1980's called Payless.  Payless was among a type of retail store that did not sell groceries.  Payless sold dry goods, general merchandise, and had a pharmacy.  Johnny's Dad worked as a pharmacist at the local neighborhood Payless in Sacramento California.  Both Starchy and Johnny had retail store experience working as young lads.  Johnny remembers working at Raley's Grocery Store as a courtesy clerk in Carmichael California and Starchy worked at Payless as a cashier clerk in San Jose California.  Our hosts also share certain lists of places of business that they don't like.  Thank you for listening to the Gen X Talk Podcast with Starchy Archie and Johnny Pendejo.#genxtalkwithstarchyarchieandjohnnypendejo

Hello Fellow Gen X Enthusiasts,Here is an episode where Starchy and Johnny were able to get together again to do a bit of contemplation on what exactly is going on in the world right now.  The United States of America, as these two Gen X men know it,  is in a state of flux where there is an air of disdain, uneasiness, and worry.    The hosts of this podcast sort of jumped around to a wide array of different subjects to try to come to terms with what is happening, in this very wearying and unrewarding world we all live in.  Happy Halloween 2021.  It's time for The Great Pumpkin, Charlie Brown! Sigh.

Milk Thistle Foods to avoid Foods to avoid In general, finding balance in the diet will keep the liver healthy. However, there are also some foods and food groups that the liver finds harder to process. These include: * Fatty foods: These include fried foods, fast food, and takeout from many restaurants. Packaged snacks, chips, and nuts may also be surprisingly high in fats. * Starchy foods: These include breads, pasta, and cakes or baked goods. * Sugar: Cutting back on sugar and sugary foods such as cereals, baked goods, and candies may help reduce the stress on the liver. * Salt: Simple ways to reduce salt intake include eating out less, avoiding canned meats or vegetables, and reducing or avoiding salted deli meats and bacon. * Alcohol: Anyone looking to give their liver a break should consider reducing their intake of alcohol or eliminating it from the diet completely. Each time your liver filters alcohol, some of the liver cells die. The liver can develop new cells, but prolonged alcohol misuse (drinking too much) over many years can reduce its ability to regenerate. This can result in serious and permanent damage to your liver.

Hello again Fellow Gen X Enthusiasts,I was able to dig out and edit my first ever conversation that I recorded for my new podcast called The Johnny Pendejo Show.  My first guest was my friend Starchy Archie.  We both loved Rush Limbaugh.  Rush Limbaugh passed away in February of 2021.  He was the greatest radio personality of all time.  We enjoyed listening to hours of Rush Limbaugh when he was on the air.  Rush revolutionized the AM radio dial as an means to be a source for an entertainment medium.  We both enjoyed making this episode and hope that you enjoy listening to this episode.  Thank you for listening to our humble little podcast.  #genxtalkwithstarchyarchieandjohnnypendejo

Hello again, In this episode Starchy and Johnny spent time remembering the day that will live forever in infamy in both of their lives.  They remembered what it was like on that Tuesday in September of 2001.  It was a day that both of them will always remember.Johnny wanted to share where he was and how he learned of the news from New York City, Washington DC, and Shanksville Pennsylvania.  Starchy also wanted to share his memories of that day as well.   Both of our hosts discussed how life has changed since that day.  It was a difficult topic but it was insightful conversation.  Starchy and Johnny will Never Forget September 11 2001.  Thank you for listening.  #genxtalkwithstarchyarchieandjohnnypendejo

Hello again Gen X Enthusiasts, Well Starchy and Johnny had an eventful morning.  They got to go visit a local Christian church that had a guest speaker who has very much been in the statewide local news recently.  It was great to be able to attend church this morning and then help a certain special lady get air in her tires.  Once all of that stuff was finished Starchy and Johnny had a good conversation about things that they were thinking about.  One of which was the presentation of worship music in a Christian Church setting and what it is like to get coffee on a cool and brisk Saturday morning after a long and stressful work week.  Anyway thank you again for listening to our humble little podcast.  We hope that you enjoy this episode and that you listen to us again in the future.  #genxtalkwithstarchyarchieandjohnnypendejo

I hope you found today's podcast on carbs and counting macros to be eye-opening about how fat loss can be largely influenced by what you eat not necessarily how much. Here's a quick breakdown of the 3 major macro groups. If you want a full video tutorial to give you the full view, shoot me your best email and I'll get that right over to you. It's about 20 minutes long, but it's very helpful to put everything into applicable context.So here's the macro breakdownCarbs - 4 calories per gram Non-starchy are the BEST!! Eat these with abandon. They are highly fibrous, made with mostly water and are packed with vitamins, minerals and phytonutrients. Starchy carbs - potatoes, rice, grains, etc - you have to earn these, so if you're not doing intense workouts, stay away from them (if fat loss is your goal). Processed carbs - sugar, bread and baked goods, and food-like products like Pop-Tarts. I have no words for these other than stay away.Protein - 4 calories per gram Found mostly in meats, dairy, and eggs but also in supplements and veggies. Go for quality over quantity here! Organic, free-range meats, eggs and dairy and quality supplements like Shakeology or Vega is great, too.Fats - 9 calories per gram Healthy fats are great!! Aim for 50% of your diet as fats. Opt for avocado, egg yolks, olives and olive oils, coconut, full fat, organic dairy and fatty meats like salmon.Macros - I explain them all right here. Want the 20 minute tutorial on how to put this all together? Shoot me your best email and I'll send it over to you. --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/caren-magill/message
