2058: The Value of Training Muscles in the Shortened & Lengthened Positions, Reps Vs. Load & Tempo for Muscle Building, the Best Lower Body Exercises for Osteopenia & More

In this episode of Quah (Q & A), Sal, Adam & Justin answer four Pump Head questions drawn from last Sunday’s Quah post on the @mindpumpmedia Instagram page. 

  • Mind Pump Fit Tip: Ozempic will NOT solve your fat loss issues. It is NOT the cure for your bad health. Focus on behaviors and NOT the quick fix. (1:43)

  • Recapping the NCI Coaching Con event. (19:54)

  • Aurelius’ five-star breakfast. (36:38)

  • McDonald’s is quietly changing the fast-food industry. (38:50)

  • Will innovation get rid of all work? (44:44)

  • Bringing the Grizzly Bear back to California. (50:37)

  • The recommendations on sodium are garbage. (55:05)

  • Shout out to Russell Brand. (57:20)

  • #Quah question #1 – What’s more important for building muscle, reps/load, or tempo? (58:44)

  • #Quah question #2 – I can often grind out a few extra reps if I take a pause (2-5 seconds) between the last few reps of a set to catch my breath. Does that mean I am “cheating” and should just end the set when I start slowing down too much? (1:03:18)

  • #Quah question #3 – What is the value of picking exercises that train muscles in the shortened and lengthened positions? (1:05:30)

  • #Quah question #4 – What are the best lower body exercises for older people with osteopenia in the legs? (1:09:41)
