Summary

In this episode of Quah (Q & A), Sal, Adam & Justin answer Pump Head questions about whether wearing a weighted vest or a hoodie during cardio makes a difference in the amount of calories burned, difference between introducing new exercises for the sake of stimulating versus confusing, whether pregnant women need to change the way they lift, and the first thing they will do when the pandemic is finally over.

  • #Quah question #1 – Does wearing a weighted vest or a hoodie during cardio really make a difference in the number of calories burned? Or is it like the oxygen restriction masks and just to perceive difficulty? (48:52)
  • #Quah question #2 – In a recent episode you talked about the importance of introducing new exercises to elicit a new stimulus and to work muscles in a novel way. In previous episodes, you have mentioned that there is no need to confuse muscles and that progressive overload is the principle that will stimulate muscle growth. Can you elaborate and clarify the difference between introducing new exercises for the sake of stimulating versus confusing? (53:33)
