Vinnie and Anna discuss running 5Ks to increase speed, how to make nut butters, and interview loyal listener Chelsea Boore about her successes and concerns with No Sugar No Grains.

Michael Tortorich sums up the podcast in the My Uncle Vinnie Blog Wrap Up:

Vinnie and Anna start the show by talking about Vinnie’s adventures in getting his book published. He won’t take the Jillian Michaels approach, so he’s looking into the possibility of self-publishing it. Anna then tells about her personal record in her recent 5K. That leads them to discussing Dean Lorey and his son. They then move on to a question about making peanut butter in the Vitamix. This leads to the Andrea Anders nut butter segment idea being born. Longtime listener/first time interviewee Chelsea Boore gets a call for some free advice. She’s been doing no sugar and no grains. While she lost weight right away and has been strict, she’s noticed some weight gain. They investigate the possibilities that may be the problem. Aside from diet, they talk about the types of exercises she’s doing as well. As they wrap up the show, they talk about how Anna will be posting more recipes. And, for good measure, Vinnie calls himself the King of Fitness for, like, the 80th time before the show ends.

Very special interview with the one and only Gary Taubes, author of Why We Get Fat: And What to Do About It and Good Calories, Bad Calories: Fats, Carbs, and the Controversial Science of Diet and Health, two of our most favorite books here at The Angriest Trainer podcast.  Check out more info on Gary at NuSI.org and at his site: GaryTaubes.com.
