#Quah question #1 – I’ve been doing conventional deadlifts for a while now and have noticed massive improvements. I’ve seen a lot of debate as to whether rack pulls or conventional deadlifts are better for back development. What are your thoughts on this? (59:27)
#Quah question #2 – I want to do the advanced version of Maps 15 and I have an EZ Curl Bar at home but not a straight bar. Are there any significant differences between the two types or would I be ok using the EZ curl for the exercises? (1:03:21)
#Quah question #3 – How can I keep my body from swinging when doing hanging leg raises due to core stability issues or is there an alternative movement to replace these? (1:08:55)
#Quah question #4 – Should you start a MAPS program over if you had to take a week off due to illness, travel, etc., or pick up where you left off? (1:12:03)
