- #Quah question #1 – Since people are staying home for an unprecedented about of time, should they change their nutrition to account for being much more sedentary? (50:30)
- #Quah question #2 – When it comes to compound movements, I tend to increase the weight during the progression of my sets. But during isolation exercises, I tend to decrease the weight. What are the advantages of increasing or decreasing weight and how can I know when it’s most advantageous to do one or the other? (1:00:06)
- #Quah question #3 – Are there real benefits to doing workouts in higher temperatures or heated areas? I’m curious if there are more benefits than just sweating to make weight for sports. (1:04:15)
- #Quah question #4 – I have a family member who started exercising again. She used to do CrossFit and I think she is a little scared to lift weights because of how intense it was in CrossFit. She now does a lot of cardio and I am very proud of her for starting to get healthy again. But I would like her to better understand that weightlifting will help her more in the long run. I do not want to think I’m telling her what she is doing wrong though. (1:11:13)
