Description

ESPN NCAA Basketball Commentator and Comedian Noah Savage joins the show to talk about all things fitness and his goal of getting back down to 250. As a former D1 college and professional basketball player, Noah is no stranger to hard work and fitness, but the unique demands of his THREE jobs and being a normal human being in NYC has made getting back down to his ideal weight a challenge. While Noah is busy excelling at multiple disciplines, he sits down to inquire about Ken’s approach to fitness to find out if adopting a new approach to training and nutrition will result in reaching his goal. The two former roommates talk through Noah’s past fitness setbacks, his take on fad diets, historic experience with a Keto diet, his most recent scare with Rhabdomyolysis and why Guinness is the new diet beer! The two talk Ken’s approach to weight lifting, nutrition, the need to lean in on things you can get excited about and why if it doesn’t make common sense it’s probably not worth doing. From the conversation the Savage 250 Weight Loss challenge is born. Noah commits to replicating Ken’s workout approach for 10 weeks to see if it’s truly just a matter of approach, or it's more a case of nature than nurture. A bit more free form, but a whole lot of fun! Mentioned In the Show:  Books:  Wooden: A Lifetime of Observations and Reflections On and Off the Court.
