(6:00) Lee has been off and on NSNG for several years and has been listening to the podcast since early on. He gives his backstory about NSNG®. (15:00) He uses several protocols in addition to NSNG®; however, Vinnie has some questions and suggestions for Lee. (21:00) He has lost and gained significant weight several times, and it's affecting his health. Vinnie is trying to get Lee to stumble less. Lee needs to stop trying to game the system. Lee also started lifting to strengthen his knees. He realized his sore knees were probably less about arthritis and more about lack of strength. Shelly joins the call. (46:00) She gives Vinnie an update on her health metrics. A DEXA scan is the best way to detect body composition (bone density, muscle growth, and body fat percentage).
