The Macros Game Debut

Shannon and I talk about several poignant health & fitness topics on this week’s Addicted to Fitness podcast including the ETT take-home workout, my quest to be alcohol free in July, our active Hawaiian honeymoon and the negative health impacts of air travel outlined in a 2015 Economist article. All those topics are super interesting but the reason I’m so excited about this episode is because it is the debut of THE MACROS GAME! Being a lover of game shows, I decided to periodically include a nutritional trivia segment into the podcast. Listen to me test Shannon’s knowledge of macronutrients with this fun little game. Bob Barker ain’t got nothing on me! If you don’t know who Bob Barker is, shame on you.

Amnesty Request

I want to apologize to you folks for being absent over the past few weeks. I took a little break from social media during Shannon and I’s week long honeymoon in Hawaii and I’m just now getting caught back up. I should have scheduled the weekly podcast posts in advance, but sadly I did not. My bad. If you’ve subscribed to the Addicted to Fitness podcast, then you’re up to date on the episodes that dropped the past two weeks. If you’re are not yet a subscriber, here’s what we talked about on those podcasts.

USDA Dietary Recommendations: The Good, the Bad and the Ugly

One cup of cooked oatmeal, 4 slices of whole wheat bread, 1 mini bag of popcorn and 1 cup of cooked brown rice. That’s what the USDA recommends I eat, in addition to other food groups, to satisfy my daily caloric need. Shannon and I discuss this and other dietary recommendations from the USDA on this nutrition focused episode.

Most Bang For Your Buck

We also analyze a data table created by Harvard Medical School on the calories burned in 30 minutes by a specific activity/exercise. We are getting great responses from listeners so far.

Rebranding

I’m sure all of you are saying to yourselves “Monday is almost over, and I haven’t seen a new ETT Wrap Show posted?!” I’m here to tell you that the podcast is currently undergoing a metamorphosis of sorts. Even though Shannon and I are doing a little tinkering with certain aspects of the show, the consistent subject matter of fitness & health will remain the same. Here’s a little teaser to hold you all over till the debut of the new and improved podcast.

What Memorial Day Means To Us

This week’s episode contains both fun and serious facts about the Memorial Day holiday. Also, Shannon and I dive into how to eat healthy at summer pool parties/cookouts, next week’s interview with a well known fitness & health professional and the iTunes debut of the ETT Wrap Show. If you like the podcast, please share it with a friend. Help us get the good word of health & fitness out to as many people as possible. Preesh!

Even though the Memorial Day holiday will have past when this episode debuts, we at ETT want to thank the men and women of the armed forces, especially those that have given their lives, to ensure our freedom. Thank you.

ETT Wrap Show Ep.18

A History of Women in Fighting Sports),  Cris “Cyborg” Justino and how the image of women in the ring and in the gym has evolved. In addition to the interview, Shannon and I talk about jiu-jitsu training, aerial yoga and influential figures in the field of health & fitness. This ETT Wrap Show is jam packed with content.
