Ep. 96 - Fueling The Fight: Vinny’s talk w/the 328th Field Hospital Stationed In Fort Douglas Utah
Episode 96
Wednesday, 20 May, 2026

In this special on-base talk, Vinny Russo sits down with the soldiers of the 328th Field Hospital stationed at Fort Douglas, Utah, to cut through the noise on military nutrition. No fluff. No miracle supplements. No "eat clean" lectures. Just the real foundations that drive performance — and the marketing myths that have been costing service members results for years. This isn't theory. It's the same framework Vinny uses with pro athletes, executives, and operators who *have* to show up ready, every single day. What started as a one-hour talk turned into the longest Q&A Vinny has ever been a part of — soldiers brought every question from cutting weight for tape, to MRE strategy in the field, to late-night cravings on shift work, and Vinny answered all of it. **Inside this episode:** → The 5 nutrition foundations that decide 95% of your results → Why every popular diet "works" for the exact same boring reason → How much protein you actually need (most service members miss it by 50+ grams) → The hydration math behind reaction time, decision-making, and endurance → 6 nutrition myths Vinny shuts down with the actual research — carbs, late eating, detoxes, gluten, fruit, artificial sweeteners → How to build a winning plate in any DFAC using the Go for Green system → MRE do's and don'ts — when to eat the whole thing, when to ration, and the mistake that crashes you 90 minutes later → Why sleep is a nutrition issue (and what it does to your hunger hormones) → The longest live Q&A Vinny has ever done — real questions from real soldiers If you're active duty, prior service, a first responder, or just someone whose performance matters — this one's for you. Recorded live at the Fort Douglas Historical Theater, Fort Douglas, Utah Special thanks to the 328th Field Hospital Coach Vinny Email: vinny@balancedbodies.io Instagram: vinnyrusso_balancedbodies Facebook: Vinny Russo Dr. Eryn Email: dr.eryn@balancedbodies.io Instagram: dr.eryn_balancedbodies Facebook: Eryn Stansfield LEGION 20% OFF CODE Go to https://legionathletics.com/ and use the code RUSSO for 20% off your order!
