2368: Training For A Half Marathon, Optimal Creatine Timing, the Best Compound Exercises & More (Listener Live Coaching)

Jun 28, 2024

In this episode of Quah (Q & A), Sal, Adam & Justin answer four Pump Head questions from the Sunday @mindpumpmedia Quah post.

• Mind Pump Fit Tip: The one component of health most of us miss. (1:45)

• Same-sex compliments are the most powerful. (22:09)

• A posterboard for Adam’s nighttime routine. (25:30)

• Viagra for brain health. (28:40)

• Missing nukes. (33:10)

• Crazy corruption. (37:42)

• The human behavior aspect of social media ‘gossip’. (41:11)

• The guy’s latest Vuori staples. (47:45)

• Celebrity/politician god complex. (50:53)

• Shout out to Mind Pump’s FREE 3-day training course. (56:20)

• #Quah question #1 – If you want to add volume to focus on building up a certain muscle, how much sense does it make to scale back on all the other muscle groups for a phase? How long would you recommend staying there before overfatiguing the target muscle? (57:27)

• #Quah question #2 – What’s the best program for someone who typically overtrains at the gym and is about to start training for a half marathon? (1:00:56)

• #Quah question #3 – What are the best compound exercises? Which ones do you recommend above all else? Which ones are a waste of time? (1:03:39)

• #Quah question #4 – When should I take creatine? I used to stack it with my pre-workout but heard somewhere that the two fight for bio-availability so you don’t get the full benefit so I switched to post-workout. Now after hearing about all the cognitive benefits, I’m considering taking it in the morning. I typically work out either at lunch or after work. When would you suggest is the optimal time to take it? (1:09:12)
