(2:00) Gina then turns the conversation to how a friend has recently returned from living in Paris and has lost weight because of the lifestyle in Paris was so different--she walked everywhere and rarely ate fast food. (12:40) Gina then mentions some statistics that demonstrate how we as Americans are addicted to fast food. (13:50) Vinnie comments to be careful what you wish for. Vinnie gives an example of why even things such as protein bars aren't great. (17:50) Everyone wants everything quick and easy and doesn't think about the trade-off. The discussion turns to bodybuilding as a kind of trade-off because steroids may get you a certain aesthetic result, but the real result is horrible health issues. (21:30) Famous actors and bodybuilders are now dealing with heart and other health issues due to heavy steroid use. People in their 20s and 30s are now dropping dead trying to compete with drugs that are even more dangerous today. Vinnie always admired fitness trainers like Vince Gironda, who never took steroids. Vinnie has never taken any steroids either. Gina describes it as the devil on your shoulder. Vinnie and Gina go back to the saying: there is no free lunch.
