Summary

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: Lifting to failure is TOO much intensity most of the time for most people. Unless you program it RIGHT! (2:20)

  • The Di Stefano’s meltdowns in Monterey. (16:20)

  • Teenagers aren’t impressed. (21:38)

  • Andrew’s gymnastic Vegas vacation. (24:45)

  • Tech is getting crazy with video games! (39:48)

  • Is this generation losing the skill of socialization? (43:49)

  • The hype over the chocolate bone broth protein from Paleo Valley is real! (50:40)

  • Are kids these days too safe? (51:30)

  • Organifi’s Green Juice is CLUTCH when traveling. (1:02:57)

  • Shout out to Dr. Andy Galpin. (1:03:54)

  • #Quah question #1 - How do I reverse out of excessive daily cardio? I lift 6 days a week and will continue to do so but fell into a heavy cardio trap. I want to decrease but I’m afraid my body will “blow up” if I don’t reverse correctly. Please help! (1:05:07)

  • #Quah question #2 - If I’m severely struggling to complete a lift due to feeling out of breath, like when performing the Bulgarian split squat, is that a sign I need to start doing more cardio? (1:11:09)

  • #Quah question #3 - What’s the best way to incorporate isometrics as a form of trigger sessions to enhance mind-muscle connection? (1:14:09)

  • #Quah question #4 - Is semaglutide a good tool if you are struggling to lose fat? The recent discussion on episode 2014 made it sound like it was. I thought using pharma medications was not a good thing. (1:17:58)
