#Quah question #1 - What's more important for building muscle, reps/load, or tempo? (58:44)
-
#Quah question #2 - I can often grind out a few extra reps if I take a pause (2-5 seconds) between the last few reps of a set to catch my breath. Does that mean I am "cheating" and should just end the set when I start slowing down too much? (1:03:18)

#Quah question #4 - What are the best lower body exercises for older people with osteopenia in the legs? (1:09:41)
