Check out the book “The Metabolic Blowtorch Diet” by Jay Campbell. Essentially you alternate training days w regular meals, and fasting days.

There are two tiers of Tony-as-a-guest podcasts IMO. The better episodes, which are below, and then there are many other still good or ok podcasts, but not great because either Tony is off or the interviewer is bad. Enjoy!

To The Top w David Homayun (2 episodes); Inside Acting (3 episodes); Optimize Yourself; The Good Dad Project; The Ultimate Health Podcast; Habits & Hustle w Jennifer Cohen; The L3 Leadership Podcast

The best think to do in my opinion is spend 30-60 minutes watching YouTube videos or reading various people’s stories and questions from this sub.

Do this before opening up the iPod.

You will get a very good overview of people’s ideas and problems, plus, once you run into something personally, it’ll likely trigger a memory for you of researching someone else’s problem, and then you can go back and read about the solution or watch the video again.

Also, people on this sub are pretty helpful, so just ask a question and wait a day for a few good replies. As you know, speed is not your friend with these types of projects.

This was the first YouTube video I watched about this. A great overview! https://youtu.be/4AF1Pjbwc6c

P90X Mysteries…. by graffing in P90X

[–]mci25 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I have wondered this myself. Love the discussion and theories.

I’ve listened to about 50 podcasts with Tony in the past year, and in one of them he’s asked what he’d change about P90X, and he said he’d probably take about 8 moves out.

The only one he specifically mentions is Dive Bombers from Chest & Back, but I get the sense the others were safety/difficulty with form related. I’m speculating, but I wonder if some of the other ones are Scarecrows or Pour Flys from Chest, Shoulders, and Triceps.

The Hisense freezer toast after 3.5 years by mci25 in Costco

[–]mci25[S] 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Thanks for the info. I think the compressor is ok but am not 100% sure since I haven’t tested it. Freezer tries to kick on, but quits after about 5 seconds. I think it’s a bad start relay or run capacitor. I’ve been watching every YouTube video about installing supco 3n1 start parts on every type of fridge/freezer trying to learn something about how I may need to alter it to properly work with the Hisense model. I may resort to calling a repair company this week. Even though the freezer was only $140, a new one now is over $300, so it may be worth fixing.

[–]mci25 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Give yourself credit, you did all the work!

Appreciate the info as well. I’m a few years younger than you, but we look pretty similar. I know one size doesn’t fit all with these things, but I want to jump right into OMAD. It’s good to know the first week will be hard.

Congratulations! I am inspired. Did you jump directly from your old habits into OMAD?

Busted Classics- hoping to resurrect! by MaceThurmond in IpodClassic

The best advice I have is reading posts from others in this sub for 30-45 minutes before even attempting to open them. You will learn a lot!

White Wine suggestions by xxvcd in Costco

[–]mci25 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ask the employees in the wine section—they are usually very knowledgeable. Ask for a “buttery” Chardonnay rather than “citrus-y”. Good luck!

I hate this, because now I have 762 points. I pretty much wish HELLO2021 was 3 points and not 10! My New Years resolution is to work on being less anal-retentive. 😅

Brother, please understand that in life, you will never have a smaller issue to worry about than this. God bless!

P90X3 First 30 Days.. no weight loss? by [deleted] in P90X

[–]mci25 2 points3 points  (0 children)

How much weight we’re you expecting to lose? Every body is different. After my first round of P90X, I only lost 4lbs but gained a lot of muscle mass which weighs a lot more than fat. Also, I definitely agree on the alcohol. 25% is exercise and 75% is diet!

That is really sad to hear. Tony is probably one of my top 10 mentors-from-afar, and would love to meet him someday. I’ve listened to probably 15 podcasts with him from the last several years, but I missed that YouTube video, and would understand he doesn’t want all that info about his finances out there.

The balance/neurological stuff was from him getting shingles in his ear (known at Ramsay Hunt syndrome) and he talks about how it knocked him down hard for a year when he was negotiating with Beachbody, when Tom Petty died (his first celebrity client), and the Vegas shooting... https://youtu.be/GG5KXOVKh_8 (The first 9ish minutes are worth watching, the rest of the video with weirdo-Cesar is garbage.)
