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: Take care of yourself to better take care of others. (2:01)

  • How the cooling pad from Eight Sleep has impacted Adam’s life. (21:17)

  • Don’t poke the momma bear in the morning. (28:24)

  • Parent hack: Books for toys. (36:03)

  • Sal’s latest peptide review: TB-500 and Thymosin Alpha. (38:20)

  • The next propaganda war will be Big Pharma vs. Big Food. (43:12)

  • The ridiculous squatting laws in California. (47:00)

  • Looking for that competitive edge when millions of dollars are on the table. (51:32)

  • Mind Pump Recommends: Beckham on Netflix. (53:26)

  • The Strawberry Walnut & Cream Mind Pump collab with Kreatures of Habit is a HIT! (58:41)

  • Shout out to David Meltzer. (1:02:07)

  • #Quah question #1 - How do I train to failure for the most muscle building when I train alone? (1:03:08)

  • #Quah question #2 - Every time my family sees a video of me squatting, they say “Watch your knees,” because the women in my family have a history of arthritis & bursitis. Are there any special considerations I should consider while lifting with that history? (1:10:24)

  • #Quah question #3 - You talk about the detriment of eating immediately post-workout as your body is still in sympathetic drive. However, I’ve heard from other sources that this is precisely why you “should” eat post-workout as it gets the body into parasympathetic drive quickly. So, I’m confused, should I eat or not eat immediately after my workout? (1:18:44)

  • #Quah question #4 - If you owned a gym today, what requirements would a brand new trainer need to meet before they could train someone in your gym? (1:22:47)
