Summary
In this episode of Quah (Q & A), Sal, Adam & Justin answer Pump Head questions about whether the muscle building signal you send when you perform resistance training is specific to only the muscles you train or if it can have an overall effect on the body, training for the firefighter academy, the benefit to sitting cross-legged for hip mobility, and realizations they had in their 20’s that changed their life.

- #Quah question #1 - Is the muscle-building signal you send, when you perform resistance training, specific to only the muscles you train, or can it have an overall effect on the body? I recently sustained a knee injury and can’t do lower body training. I am trying to preserve muscle. (48:14)
- #Quah question #2 – I'm training for the firefighter academy. I’m 6’1”, 195 pounds, and have been following MAPS Anabolic. Which program should I choose next, and should I be at maintenance or bulk? I need to be running with 75 pounds of equipment. (52:54)
- #Quah question #3 – I spend most of my day on a chair due to online classes. Is there any benefit to sitting cross-legged for hip mobility or should I just do exercises to prevent low back pain? (58:05)
- #Quah question #4 – What realizations did you have in your 20’s that changed your life? (1:03:03)
