Diet ‘Donut Day’ Doesn’t Disappoint

Cheat Day, Donut Day, What’s the Difference?


What up, sports, fitness and ideal weight fans? In this episode, I’m going to talk to you about having just one donut — that one indulgence you want, otherwise illegal in your current diet, and how you can make it a habit without affecting your weight.

Have you ever had the consideration “everything in moderation”?

Do you think a little bit of sweet indulgence is an okay thing?

Ask yourself this question: What is the goal of your current eating plan?

Are you eating to stay fit or eating to lose weight?

These are two totally different things, and only one will allow you to eat what you want. Sweet indulgence and “everything in moderation” are workable concepts to follow, but only for those who have made it to optimum, ideal function and total fitness

It all comes down to a basic confusion that people have between two types of eating, and if you confuse one way of eating with the other, you can be in for excess unwanted fat and weight you will retain endlessly! Sound familiar?

Well, get ready for an end to the mystery surrounding getting to your ideal weight and eating the things you want to eat when you want to eat them. Dial in, buckle up, get off the scale and lay your weight and eating worries aside, because I’m about to hit you with the real way to a healthy you, a healthy diet and, yes, cheat days and donuts too! All within the next 15 minutes.

You may or may not have heard of Traumatic Brain Injury or TBI, or maybe had it confused with concussions. Talk about confusing them: Extreme Athlete, Amanda Smith, had multiple TBI’s and concussions since age two.

I Play Coach Frank, the Athletic Background and Career of Dr Frank Marghella

From Rocky Fan to Rocky Story, Here Is How I Came to Play Coach Frank…”

With the movie “I Play Rocky” imminent for release in the next month, and with me, Dr “Coach Frank,” being such a HUGE Rocky fanatic, it came to the attention of my producer, Frank Sardella, that we’d never told MY story.

So he came up with the idea of interviewing me and telling my story of how I went from aspirations of being an athlete, playing ball since I was three, through injury, recovery and championship, to predicting the future risk of injury vs. being able to bring my secret weapon as an athlete (i.e., chiropractic) to masses of athletes from weekend warrior to pro, from soccer mom to CrossFit and yoga enthusiast.

I looked ahead to the life I wanted and realized a couple of decades’ career as an athlete would fade, but a career as a chiropractor could establish a legacy of fit, injury-free and accomplished athletes by the thousands. Even if their playing field was a cubicle and office chair or a daily stroller walk or run in the park.

Now it’s time to share MY story, and I’m sharing it with you, right here, after all these years, decades in practice, and over a hundred episodes in!

Are you in? Because here it is right now. Tune in!

Join me, Dr. “Coach” Frank Maghella, with my guest today, a long-time patient who played his last play ever at his Homecoming football game against his school’s rival team.

Hear this inspiring story right from the man who started it all by rising from and out of the ashes. A true story that tugged at my heartstrings, having suffered injuries in high school playing football and choosing a career as a doctor of chiropractic over playing ball in school and professionally.
