In honor of the Fourth of July holiday week – and to make up for the fact that the traditional hot dog eating contest didn’t happen this year – we’re bringing back a classic Topic Thunder episode.

We tackle the question, “How many glizzies could you eat in 48 hours?” Original episode notes:

Are big bulks or big cuts worth it? Will you get what you want out of them or do they (almost) always go bad? And if you’re on a bulk, how many glizzies can you eat in 48 hours? We throw out some opinions on this and share some ideas about sticking to extreme diets in general.

Dean Saddoris of Caffeine & Kilos joined us in this discussion. You can find Dean on IG @deansaddoris.ck and at caffeineandkilos.com, along with our gym manager, Kyle Castro @kyle.castroo.

0:00 Hey, this is Jim. Since this is the fourth of July holiday week and the traditional hot dog eating challenge did not occur due to rain, we thought we would bring back this episode from last year of Topic Thunder, where we talked about whether to bulk or cut, but the real question became how many glizzies can you eat in forty eight hours? So this is a fun one. Check it out and we'll be back next week with a regular episode. And since the world is hot to emplace Twitter with a bunch of different platforms, you can find both me and Mike on Threads with our regular handles Silent Mike with two k's and the Jim mcdee. And we'll talk to you next week. Oh, I almost forgot. Monday, July tenth, we'll be having our first Accessories only drop at three SB dot coo or Good Company Apparel dot com. You can get ten percent off of your entire order just for listening to this show if you use the code pod at checkout. That's ten percent off your entire order if you use the code pod. Also, what this health and fitness industry is turned into on YouTube and Instagram is all these people taking copious amounts of steroids and staying lean all the time. But that's not a healthy lifestyle, and that's not something you can do long term.

1:19 And then are other people that we follow are the people that do drastic ones like Oprah going from three hundred pounds to a buck forty to three hundred pounds. Shouldn't eat solid foods for three weeks? That's who should we should A Let's say hypothetically, I need two thousand dollars a day. You're doing that for three days, then all of a sudden you're having a full rack of beer, and then and then the next day you're feeling bad about it. Now you're eating three slices of celery. You're right, you know how many glizzies can you eating? For you? Glyzzies are not the boy Prepa just for a shit podcast or just slamming wieners. Oh, one of Deans, I'm gonna put them on blast. This is one of your old ones. Send it. How manna glyzzies can you eat? Oh? And that dude we just warned up that's one of your topics? How many glizzies can you eat? Really? Right? Dean? Is that already wrote? He did? You unk? Not right? That your kids steal your phone?

2:14 Your kids? Did your kids steal your phone? It's been a show. You just fucking wasted in forty eight hours to be specific, Dean Goy Texas hours. Dean's hammered, drunk, just text enough. That's really thought out. That's a pretty good cut off. Twenty four We're not quite sure. Twenty four unlimited forty eight that's pretty good, dude. Oh my god, it was a bit. I've forgotten about it. We're like, you know, I didn't even write it. We're like fitness lifting. How many fucking cat talks? Three hot dogs at once? I would have hot dogs eat in forty eight hours. Oh, ladies and gentlemen, welcome back to topic.

3:05 No bust it up. We're with decadors, the Glizzie King three SB, Jim mcdee and the one and only Kyle. Do you like your last name on the internet? Some people are weird. You let him know Castro. You know what you're Castro because that's my last name. You've got gas, baby, I'm moving Gastro after all those Glizzies A spoiler and up to the mound. Kyle Gastro, more mask more gass more gas Gastro and he comes to the sick. Dude, that would be good if you played in Mexico. No, remember when my teammates are Dominican. Yeah, remember when what's his name Kenny Powers goes to Mexico and he's bounding down. That what made me think of it. That's Kyle's dream as my buddy. My buddy has a whole quad tattoo of Kenny Powers. If I don't, don't blame if I played pro baseball, I would. Yeah, so you're saying I have to get Kenny Powers. I've been going to rewatch all those. I've been watching the new show that rides Gemstones, and it's as this is the best show, almost equivalent to Oh it's funny. It's oh my god, I've never Oh it's good, we should watch you like it? It's oh, I know, yeah, we'll watch it. Watch it. I never watched He's Bounding Down. Oh you're I don't love suck up. There's a lot of shows that aren't funny, especially nowadays, but East Bounding Down is one of the last series that I was like this, sh it's funny, all right, what's the topic? Dude? Cutting in bulking a lot of people ask about cutting a bulking, whether it's healthy for you, should you

4:35 do it? I literally received a question from a friend recently on it um how to do it? When to do it? Uh? And is like bulking even healthy? But I think a lot of it comes down to definition. But maybe just share your experiences, what you've done. And the truth is, I've cut a few times, but I've only really like purposely bulked once. And that's actually if we want to bring up a whole other topic, maybe we can do it next, like our biggest fitness mistakes that I just didn't allow myself to grow when I should have been growing. Yeah, I agree with that. From an audio standpoint, I'd like to apologize to everyone because there's a there's a fucking harvester outside or something. I don't know what it is, but I'm hearing it like so loud that I don't know. I'm sorry I was killing all your oranges out back. I thought it was my u tonitis. Oh yeah, well that I have that too, and why don't we all have that? I think it's Mine's from my base sound system in high school where I just destroy my ears. Yeah, I played drums forever and I'm just like, why would I why why was I doing that as a kid, idiot? Just what it is so bulking cutting?

5:31 Yeah, I think it can be can be good within a parameter, and like some people are never gonna get very much muscle unless they're willing to over eat and get a little fat for a while. Sure, so they can train and recover and shit, but like there's got to be a practical limit to it. What I mean, Well, when I brought that up to and I never talked about it, I think publicly is an age factor. Like if you're sixty and you're trying to like bulk for like that, is that muscle important or should we probably should probably just eat maintenance and get some resistance training for you to gain forty pounds as a twenty year old in college. Even if a good amounts fat, it's not that big of a deal. Like I don't suggest it and probably isn't best for muscle or general if you're training. If you're training, you're not going to put on a ton of fat no matter how much you're eating. If you're training hard every day. I don't know, man, you haven't hung out with enough.

6:19 But I'm talking like a college athlete or something. I guess maybe even a parlip though I guess too, like, no, you can think I think I think it's I think it's paraly thing is because it's I know, it's like I think way o things a little different because you actually are getting like pretty worked up. I think weightlifting, I would say, is a little different. Um. And then I was eating. Genetics play a big role, and genetics actually play less of a role in how many calories you can intake, which most people say like I gotta high metabolism. I got a little metabolism. You don't. The variance is actually very little. The variance in genetics is is more how much food you can take and you're satiating levels. Some people like me and college eat the same meal and be like fuck, I'm full as well. Wasn't that meal huge? Not to be like man, I thought that was an appetizer. Um. And whether that's mental, genetical, whatever, it's just how people are triggered differently. Lepton and all these things not gremlin. Uh yeah, probably have a big role in it, um, because I think you can't. I think you can definitely get out of shape. And even if you're just wanting to be a bodybuilder, right, like ten minutes on the treadmills. Not gonna deal with that.

7:21 A lot of my suggestions on the bowl is to keep cardio in. That's another common question. Should you do cardio during bulk and if you really really struggle to gain weight, depending again on your age bracket and you're I'm talking to healthy individuals, um I would keep cardio in. You're not gonna burn off what's the snickers three hundred sixty cows? Yeah, that's walking three miles up hill. If you walk three miles up hill, you'll just burn that Snickers off. So like the cardio is not gonna lose your gains, you shouldn't have ate that entire baget ships last, it's just good hell well kind of ships. You know those uh tehrans, like the ones that are like the vegetables, you know what I'm talking about, like the little like slices. But then they have a new one that's like a flaming hot version of that. That's probably good. It's they're fire. The truth is, like all that shit, it's not healthy. They just dumped and oiled, but they taste good. That's a health food. That actually tastes like it's your fire. What is it, Tarrant, I'm talking about the black bag, tu. I think it's longer than that, is it? It's a potato chip, right, isn't turo or something? They're a potato. They're like different potatoes and like different like vegetables that are sliced into like bult But that's just me. I don't know. No, I think the name that you're saying, or that we're trying to think of, is a different name for like a root or a potato. They're like there's like like some kind of random shit in there. Yeah, there's like a sweet potato chip in there, and there's like another yeah, talking about the same thing. Yeah, I'm just trying to think of the root of the name. I don't know. They're fire though. They have a new hot one that just came out and I had to try it. Your boy two bags of those over the weekend. How many? How many percentage of cuts and bulks do you think fail all of them? Most? No, don't like in the amount of time, like let's say they're doing like a three month all over whatever.

8:52 You think they're failing A bulk sounds fine until you start doing it. Cut, No, I think I think majority of people fail. They don't stay considered enough yea. And they don't fail by application, they fail by consistency. Because you do you have to do like three to six months of a of a moderate cut and a moderate bulk to make real changes. Yeah, because if you do that fast, like you try to bulk too fast, you do two weeks, then you burn yourself out. You're like, damn, dude, I just can't eat that much. Or same with a cut and you're like, dude, I need you to drop thirty pounds. I'm gonna do it. And in six weeks and then you cut too much and then you end up binging because you cut too much. Now you're hungry. Shit. Yeah, I ate forty pizzas in thirty days. I ate one hundred glizzies in forty eight hours. Well, we're not really sure whether or not the like metabolic changes actually happen. I mean people talking about the yeah that like, oh, I you know, damaged my metabolism, my cutting forever and whatever whatever like that part. They're they're pretty sure, but that's an extreme case. Yeah. Yeah, if you starve yourself, you will have some metabol damage. But that's on the margins. I mean it's on the extreme, yeah, for sure. But people do that that.

9:56 I would say it's in the extreme of normal because like it's not just he need competitors. Think of how many people are large in America right, we have fifty percent of obesity rate still, um, and how many of those people are doing a cucumber fast for fucking three weeks? Yeah that because because fucking because yeah, because Oprah's telling us to do it, you know. Yeah, TikTok too. I still see the up because of her way. It's always been real stable. Yeah, that's my leader. I mean it has. I mean that's the truth. Like being naturally stably fit is so rare and so hard, um and not to have in a whole another topic, but like that's also what this health and fitness industry has turned into on YouTube and Instagram is all these people taking copious amounts of steroids and staying lean all the time. But that's not healthy lifestyle and that's not something you can do long term. And then are other people that we follow are the people that do drastic ones, like Oprah going from three hundred pounds to a buck forty to three hundred pounds. You shouldn't eat solid foods for three weeks.

10:50 That's who should We should also not follow, And so all the people feeding us this information are people that And I don't necessarily think you have to be the the epitome of health to teach health. You have the knowledge, but it is good when you can back it up with good, consistent knowledge. But yeah, being being consistent and these small waves is so much better off. And for the majority of people listening that haven't actually like put on a ton of muscle or gotten really shredded, eating app maintenance and training your tits off is probably your best option. Yeah, yeah, because you can kind of recomp if if you haven't trained forever, even even I've trained ten years, I've trained twenty years. I did the math the other day so embarrassing. I started trying on seventh grade. Bro, I've been in the gym for twenty years and I look like this. You guys want to, Yeah, question my nattiness now people used to question my nattiness and twenty fifteen or not anymore like shit haus and change. But do that and if I even now, if I if I just do slight bulk slight cuts, you can make a world of difference. True. Yeah, I mean also come down to most people just aren't eating enough for both, for both both sides of the coin. For sure, most people learning enough to lose weight, and most people arening enough to gain weight. You're kind of like in this like false middle ground that you just don't know what you're doing or so insistent where you're like, let's say, hypothetically I need two thousand collars a day.

12:03 You're doing that for three days, then all of a sudden you're having a full rack of beer, and then and then the next day you're feeling bad about it. Now you're eating three slices of celery. You're right, you know how many glizzies can you? Eating? Forty glizzies? Are not the bull just for a shit podcast or just slamming Wieners. I like to do the Yeah, just cold. We know you can like just kind of inhale it, inhale them down like shooting straight, shut the stomach, break them down. Baby. Yeah, we got snob a gaps for a reason. Why you're talking like a car too. Yeah, So if we were just say like ten percent, no more than ten percent of your of your of your body weight to gain or lose. It doesendingem like a reasonable band.

12:45 It depends where you start. But yeah yeah probably yeah unless you're already super overweight. Yeah ten percent. Yeah yeah, if you're super overweight. Um. And then the other thing is bulks and cuts probably shouldn't last forever, but be fucking consistent. Don't don't do good, do a good three to six months. Nobody wants to hear that wants to do that. The hardest thing I want to do. Bulking and cutting are difficult, But the hardest thing is actually maintenance. It really is difficult to eat maintenance. Yeah, no matter the genetic, no matter the input. I've heard somebody even like recently talk about how they wanted to, you know, like get on like you know, proper nutrition and stuffing, like, yeah, but I don't really want to. I don't want to weigh anything, and I want to really like track anything. Yeah. Okay, well then you're not gonna get results. Yeah, that's literally we got to put loose bumpers in. I'm actually order you have a YouTube video plan on on different brackets of and I always say, like, how strict your goal is depends or will decide how strict you're eating needs to be right. You need to step on stage.

13:39 You need to track every fucking gram. It's just has to happen. But if you want to lose ten pounds, if you just got a little fluffy over COVID, you want to lose ten pounds, we can broaden that eight ounces of chick up and a half of rice. Let's let's do an eight ounce serving of some kind of green vegetable and do that three four times a day. Yeah. The biggest issue with eyeballing, and I am a big eyeball fan for the majority of people, is that people don't even have a clue our nutrition in schools bad. I do suggest most people track in way everything. If you never have for six months, say like a like a like a normal average fist size about eight ounces of chicken. Yeah, it's about a serving a chicken. Yeah, had a big fift. Well for you, though you need more notices your fist is to you, you know what I mean, that's not much you need. Another decent way is just to get thirty to fifty grams of protein every single meal and make the protein the focus your meal. You eat three to four times a week or excuse me, three to four times a day, and you're gonna be in that.

14:30 There's just no way. I'm like currently in my current like you know, like half ass like training style, Like you're there a point in my life where I'm even getting remotely enough protein. Most people probably getting like half of what I need, right, most people don't. And I know that. That's why I bought those shakes. Dude. Yeah, yeah, I honestly, you have to go get some at this. But it's possible. It's hard, but it has to be a conscious decision like everything else, right, if you're making a conscious And the truth is, if you're making a conscious decision and going to the gym, which is more fun for most people, um, you might as well really tighten it up if you want to se the results. It's just the truth, and it sucks. And I was that guy when I was eighteen, googling and everything, and all the ogs are telling me like, forget your supplements, forget this, track your food, track your workouts and you'll be good, And I said, fuck you, I don't want that. Where's the quick pass? What supplement do I gotta take? But it is the truth. You get your sleep in you get your food consistency is going to be the number one and that has to go for the six months, the three months down to the week, down of the day, eat at the exact same times. You don't have to eat the exact same thing. I understand it gets boring, but if you can eat the exact same things, because then you only have to measure in a way once. Yeah, I mean, and also it's like, yeah, you just I think it's like I think for me personally, if I to like give example of what helps me personally is I just got to make sure there's that one day of the week where I cook at least like two or three different types of meat. Yeah, and then I'm good, Yeah the meat. If you cook one type of meat that one day, this is like it's even hard to just do while you're cooking and prepping.

15:50 But like I feel like for me, it was the easiest to doing trying to do three meats in one day. That way, like I'm set up where I'm not gonna get bored of something. I'm gonna like go off track because I'm tired of eating chicken or I'm tired of eating steak or I'm tiring, so like now I have like an option every day. No, I'm the same way best for me would really help me Eating chicken breast seven days a week. You're you're going to give up because it is bad. You're gonnaly try so many different hot sauces. Yeah, barbecues ain't saving it. Yeah, I ain't saving it. Uh. Ladies and gentlemen writing review, be sure to share this thing. Appreciate you so much on my question next week.
