#66 - MOVE FIT: I DRINK WATER WITH PINK SALT UPON RISING.
6 Jul 2020 · 17 min
In this solo episode of The Jorge Cruise Show (July 6 2020), fitness and high‑performance strategist Jorge Cruise introduces a morning hydration protocol – 32 oz of mineral water mixed with ½ tsp of pink Himalayan salt – as a biohack to extend fasting, boost energy, and suppress false hunger, thereby supporting his overarching goal of reducing belly fat and waist circumference. He frames the routine within his broader “peak performance” philosophy, which he defines as a smaller waist leading to better work, play, and overall quality of life. Cruise announces the start of a 19‑day challenge for his online clients, previews the upcoming “Belly Fat Cure” program, and outlines the week’s content plan (intermittent fasting, interval training, and related shortcuts). He promotes sponsors (Primal Kitchen and Joovv) with specific offers, encourages listeners to complete a 2020 survey for a free Belly Factor course, and repeatedly invites the audience to join his free “Fit Family” texting community via a US +1 424‑228‑9548 number. Throughout, he uses affirmations, visualizations, and a motivational tone to persuade listeners to adopt the hydration habit and engage with his programs.

Hey everyone, happy Monday. It is July 6th. I'm Jorge Cruise and welcome to The Jorge Cruise Show. I'm hoping you had a great Fourth of July weekend. It is the first Monday in July. For me, a lot of my online clients are gonna be starting a 19-day challenge today. We do it every first Monday of the month. Now we were gonna be opening up our online club at jorgecruise.com today, but we are adding some functionality to the website, so it's not available yet. But regardless, my online clients that are online are starting today a 19-day challenge. I want to encourage you to do this on your own as well this week. On Friday, I'll be revealing the Belly Fat Cure online program via email or text to you, and if you signed up for it, you'll be getting it. And if you haven't, you can still do that. I'll tell you how to do it in just a minute. But for me, my life's work has been really about helping people who don't have time to achieve peak performance. And if you don't know what that is, for me, it comes down to working better, it comes down to playing better, and it comes down to really just doing the things you love and that you choose. You have that freedom at any any age, and I'm almost 50 years old, and I can tell you I've been really blessed that I've made this my passion. It's something I've been doing for 25 years of my life. And if you were to ask me, Jorge, what is the key to peak performance, um, especially if you don't have time, it's about lowering your waist circumference. And all that simply means is removing belly fat. And basically, a small waistline can guarantee a long lifeline. And if you can get a flat belly, uh, I, I believe, my personal opinion is, and I've done this with hundreds of celebrities, thousands of online and millions of people through my books, you will achieve a level of joy and excitement and passion and energy where you just are able to perform better. And that's what this show is all about. It's by giving you those shortcuts that I've picked up over the last 20-some years, uh, during the show. And we do it every day, Monday through Friday, and we are back this week after the holiday. So I'm thrilled you're here. If you're on YouTube, welcome to my YouTube channel because the show is on YouTube as well. But we're on Apple, Spotify, uh, obviously we also put the show up on Facebook and also on Instagram. So welcome everyone. Today being Monday, we're going to be talking about what you can do first thing in the morning to really set yourself up to have a great start, uh, every day this week and every day this summer and hopefully long term. And it's a beverage with water that I mix that's super simple, uh, that uses a pink salt. And we're going to be talking about how to use this pink salt in your beverage in the morning every day before you eat. So it helps you fast longer, it helps you have energy when you work out. And today it's all all about that. It's about how to properly hydrate your body. Now, before we do that, our show is brought to you by my website, JorgeCruise.com. And if you go over to JorgeCruise.com— I'll spell it for you, it's J-O-R-G-E-C-R-U-I-S-E.com— you can fill out our survey. We do this every year. It's our 2020 survey. And if you fill it out this Friday, you will get, along with a couple hundred people, the Belly Factor online course. It's only going to 200 people, and we've got like 30 spots still available, and it's totally free. Takes maybe 4 to 5 5 minutes to fill out my survey and basically gives me kind of like a direction, almost like a compass to know what to talk about on the show, what you guys want to see when I go on television. Remind me a story I got to tell you guys about the Real Housewives of New York. If some of you saw the show this last Thursday, I was on it with Dorinda and Sonja, but it helps me know what to do on TV even with those shows as well as my books. So this survey is really, really great. And if you fill it out again, just go to JorgeCruise.com, click on the top of the website fill out the form. I'll have all your information and I'll text you the link on Friday to the online course. You get to understand the whole contents of what to do and how to really cure belly fat using interval training, because that is my passion. And if anything, that is the first pillar to, to getting a flat stomach and to lowering that waist circumference in the least amount of time. We're also brought to you by Primal Kitchen. Now, Primal Kitchen, for those of you who know, was founded by my, my mentor nutrition Mark Sisson, and they are the kings of avocado oil, which in my opinion in 2020 is the premium, uh, oil in the world for whether it's cooking salad dressings, mayonnaise. And, uh, his company Primal Kitchen is giving all of us that watch the show or listen to this show a free, uh, chipotle lemon mayonnaise, which I absolutely love. I put a dollop of it when I make tacos or even on burgers, and it just has this delicious rich flavor that is incomparable to anything out there. It's anti-inflammatory because of the avocado oil. And most salad dressings and most mayonnaise, unfortunately, are made with soybean oil. If you guys check that out, it's pretty bad. Or canola oil. This is not. Here's the website to go to. Just go to primalkitchen.com/jorgecruise. And if you go to that link and just use the promo code Jorge Cruise, you'll get, uh, the free lemon chipotle mayonnaise. Super delicious, guys. And all these links are at the website jorgecruise.com with the show link number 66 today. All right, if you guys want this Finally, we're brought to you by Joovv. Now, Joovv is how I start my morning before I do the show. I'm up at 4:30, and literally, I turn this red light therapy light on, and it lights up my room where I'm having my coffee, and pretty much brings good energy into the room. Imagine a beautiful sunrise or sunset in Hawaii, and it's just that vibrant magic light, you know, and that's what this Joovv is, but there's science behind it, because it also helps with collagen production. It helps with the reduction of fine lines in your face, and it's something that, for me, I get kind of sad and I get anxious if it's dark and dreary outside, and a lot of people do. I'm not alone, I know I'm not. And if that's you and you need good energy, this light does that. And again, it's the Joove. I'll spell it for you, it's J-O-O-V-E. And if you go to their website, it's joovv.com/jorge. They're giving all of us a free gift with the promo code Jorge when you get one of their lights, and they have money-back guarantee. It is literally the premium light for health and energy. And you can use it at night before you go to bed because it doesn't have any blue light. So it literally helps you with everything. So from morning to night, I use this light. It's wonderful. So with that said, guys, let's get started with today's show. The affirmation for the show, I'll read it to you here, and then we're going to get into the show and I'll walk you through it. We'll do it together. It says, I drink water with pink salt upon rising. So let's get started right now. It's a fact, 91% of us have a dangerous amount of belly fat, and it isn't just unsightly. When you have too much belly fat, you're more likely to suffer from aches and pains, low energy, memory loss, and poor sleep, which prevents you from performing your best at work, spending true quality time with your loved ones, and simply enjoying life. The good news is that you can cure belly fat and immediately start to work better, reduce pain, improve memory, and sleep better using simple shortcuts I've gathered. Hi, my name is Jorge Cruise, and I'm known as the 8-Minute Life Strategist to the world's busiest celebrities. I've been a fitness, nutrition, and high-performance living strategist for over 25 years, and you may have seen my work with Oprah Winfrey, Khloe Kardashian, President Clinton, Tyra Banks, Dr. Oz, Tony Robbins, or even Steve Harvey. My passion to find the best science-backed fitness shortcuts has allowed me to write over 30 books and become a multiple New York Times bestselling author with over 9 million books in print. And I know I can help you too. Welcome to the Jorge Cruise Show. Alright, well, welcome. It's Monday morning and again the first Monday in July, so I'm super excited. I love the first Mondays of any month, and it's summer and it's July and it's warm. I mean, literally it's 80 degrees in San Diego, and I hope it's warm where you at. And again, I hope you had a great Fourth of July weekend. So here's the bottom line, here's our goal, here's the agenda for the show this week. We are gonna do some belly fat curing. We're going to start right now with proper hydration. It's going to do two things. It's going to let you fast longer, and fasting is important. We're going to talk about that tomorrow on the show. Uh, we're also going to talk about interval training on the show this week. We're going to talk about some specific examples. And so by Friday, you're going to have all the pieces to the puzzle. And by the time July comes around, I see you dropping 6, 7, 8, 10 pounds of belly fat. It's going to be that simple. But it starts with what do you do upon rising, you roll out of bed, go to the bathroom, and then drink the following. I want you to drink 32 ounces of water, mineral water, hopefully spring water. You don't want, you don't want distilled water, you want regular mineral water. Hopefully you get bottled water if you can. And then you add half a teaspoon of pink salt. Pink salt is rich in minerals such as magnesium, potassium, and iron. Those minerals, that combo, gives you a supercharge. It literally changes your biochemistry. It will give you the ability to have this mad energy called— from electrolytes, uh, and more importantly, it's going to turn off false hunger, which you want to do. So it's super simple. Now I've got a, an affirmation that's going to incorporate this, and I want you to visualize what I'm about to say, and then we're going to say together, all right? And then we'll talk about this pink salt as well towards the end. So with that said, let's say the following. This is the affirmation: I'm going to say it 3 times right now. I drink water with pink salt upon rising. I drink water with pink salt upon rising. All right, one more time. I drink water— visualize that— I drink water with pink salt upon rising. All right. Now, why upon rising? That's the time your body is the most open to hydration. It's also the time you probably are going to feel the most hungry because you just have been fasting for a few hours, hopefully 7 or 8 hours of sleep. So you want to supercharge your body with this beautiful water and these electrolytes. So let's say this together and then I'll get into it. All right, let's do this together. Hopefully in front of a mirror, take me with you, whether I'm on YouTube or whether this is on Apple Podcasts, wherever you're listening to this or watching. All right, let's do this together. All right, look at yourself in the mirror and say the following: I drink water with pink salt upon rising. Again: I drink water with pink salt upon rising. One more time, say it with intensity, chest out, shoulders back. Take a deep breath in. Say it with me now. Ready, guys? I drink water with pink salt upon rising. Good job. Give me a high five. Good job. That was awesome. Now let me get into the details. I drink water. That's what you want before coffee. Coffee dehydrates you. You want to hydrate your body upon rising. Uh, 50 to 60% of the clients I work with, when they get up, they're hungry. Me. Why? Because they're dehydrated. Now, if you just drink water without the electrolytes, you're going to drink it, it's going to pass right through you, you're going to pee it right out, literally. This, if you had that, that half a teaspoon of the pink salt to your 32 ounces of water, what happens is that it stays in your system. Now, you're not going to get bloated, you're not going to get puffy, I promise you, you're going to look gorgeous, you're going to feel great, you're going to have energy, you're going to turn off false hunger, you're going to be able fast until 12 or 1 o'clock today. You're thinking, whoa, hey, you don't have to, but we're gonna talk about fasting tomorrow and why intermittent fasting is so important to getting rid of false belly fat and to getting rid of real belly fat and getting rid of the most dangerous of all, which is visceral fat. We're going to talk about that tomorrow. But step 1 is to hydrate your body with H2O and these minerals. Again, you want them to be rich in magnesium, potassium, and iron. And that's why the pink salt is so important. All right, guys, now here is your challenge for the rest of the day. You may be thinking, just upon rising? You want to do it at least twice more. Now, I have 4 bottles of 32 ounces of this water. I add the salt to all of them. I have certain clients that just do it in the morning. Play it by ear, um, see how you feel. If you feel hungry, have another glass of this, or have 32 ounces of this. I usually put it in a big container, it's not a glass. Because it'd be a big glass. It's like a bottle of wine almost, right? The, the waters I drink. But I would tell you to do this when you feel hungry and if you need energy. It's going to help you come through the day, come through the fasting feeling better. And then of course, break the fast when you're ready with, uh, my Cruise Control Coffee, which really is a way to cheat the fast, um, and do that. The healthy fats will turn off the hunger. Then when you truly break break your fast with your first meal, then you're going to be set. And whether that's 12, 1 o'clock— I break my fast, I'm just doing one meal a day these days. I do that around 3 o'clock. So I do this all the way till 3 o'clock. I will have coffee with butter in it usually around 10 o'clock, sometimes as early as 8 o'clock, because I'm up early. I'm up at 4:30 and I'm doing all these things from my red light therapy to doing my streaming with my clients to the podcast. So I'm up busy, very active, and I need this energy. And this is my drink for mad energy— more than coffee, more than caffeine— water with half a teaspoon of this pink salt. And if you have any questions, you guys know where to, to reach me. Go to my website, jorgecruise.com, and join my text family. It's a new system that we have online where I can text you directly, and it's also how we keep in touch.
