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
