This episode has an "E" for explicit because Greg has to quote one of Francis Ford Coppola's most famous Vietnam movie.
In addition to classic movies, Mr. Coppola produces a delicious red wine. Greg is visiting Calabogie Ontario for his beer choice.
We're talking about processed foods. It is almost impossible to avoid processed foods. When was the last time you made your own yogurt? Probably never.
You can eat healthy and still consume processed foods. From canned and frozen veggies to tomato paste, bread, pasta and oatmeal, there are processed foods that are the building blocks of home cooking.
We talk about the good and the not-so-good processed foods.
Enjoy!

😂Please forgive our French pronunciation! Fiona and Nyree have moved on to a French red wine after sipping some Scotch. Maybe not the best combination!

We're following up the cold and flu season episode with the best ways to recover from hard workouts. There are a lot of recovery trends from endless foam rolling and cold plunges to massage guns. The evidence to support the benefit of these forms of recovery is anecdotal at best.

We're talking about a wide range of recovery tools and sharing the best form of recovery that is 100% free.

"I need more cardio."
"My cardio sucks!"
No and no, it doesn't. You gotta go short and hard to be more efficient going long and slow. 😛
Before we get into energy systems and why your cardio is just fine, let's talk about the beer. Greg is stepping beyond his comfort zone with Cameron's Jungle of Love Volume II Pink Guava and Orange Sour. Is it a fruited sour a beer?
From a purely scientific point of view, any low powered activity like walking, running or biking, that is sustained beyond two minutes is "cardio." That's the aerobic or oxidative system.
Anaerobic exercises (without oxygen) like weightlifting and short, intense CrossFit workouts offer far more "cardio" benefits than long, slow traditional cardio exercise. Consider this:

  • anaerobic exercise is equally as heart protective as long cardio
  • anaerobic exercise burns fat while preserving and building muscle mass
  • anaerobic exercise increases overall aerobic capacity

Your "cardio" is just fine. You need to learn to pace yourself and manage your red line.
We dig into this topic and share our experiences training for a long cardio event without a lot of long cardio

Keeping it Real with Nyree and Fiona - 👴👵Live to 100 - The Must Watch Netflix Docuseries
play

Got an topic you want us to discuss? Send us a message!

It is rare for us to get excited about a Netflix documentary, especially ones about health. Often they tend to be biased toward vegetarian or vegan diets and don't consider other lifestyle factors that contribute to health.
Dan Buettner has been studying the concept of "Blue Zones," pockets of population where there is an unusually large number of people live to 100 and beyond for more than twenty years. Live to 100 revisits Blue Zones around the world and offers a well-balanced perspective on how to live a long and healthy life.
Much of what these centenarians are doing to live a long and healthy life are things you can do, too. Genetics only plays a small role in longevity. Starting today make it a point to:

  • Eat a whole food plant based diet. This doesn't mean becoming a vegetarian. It means filling most of your plate with lots of fresh veggies and eating quality sources of fish, chicken, beef , etc.
  • Move! Exercise is important, but so is daily movement. Go for a walk, garden, or find ways to add extra activity in your day.
  • Connect with others. Volunteer, engage with members of your church or connect with friends and family.
  • Have a sense of purpose. You need a reason to get out of bed. Engage in a hobby or volunteer.

We share our perspective. As always there are more than a few Greg-isms!
