In this episode I interview Mike Vacanti of On the Regimen. Mike is the fourth of the 5 fitness coaches taking the world by storm in 2014 from Fitocracy that I have interviewed. He is also the coach who ran the program I was apart of earlier in the year before my wedding. He is one of the most open and honest and caring coaches anyone could ever work with and I know from personal experience.
In this episode we discuss:
How Mike got into fitness and made a huge move from MN to NYC in one night with no plan of return
- Gary Vaynerchuck and what he learned from coaching someone as intense as Gary Vee: Hustle
- How would Mike play a hand of poker if he had two jacks and three people were at the table
- How alcohol can fit into your macros and how it affects your goals
- Two Day Hangovers as you get older and how much they suck
- Quality sleep versus quantity sleep
- Getting up before your alarm goes off
- Internal versus external motivation
- Using Google if you don't have a scale
- Favorite Hockey Player of all time
- His favorite Ben and Jerry flavors
- Star Wars and how he just couldn't get into it
- Why he is fascinated with the thought of death
