Summary

  • Mind Pump Fit Tip: Best Ways to Strength Train Without Weights or Machines. (1:58)

  • Iron sharpens iron. (23:15)

  • Get stronger muscles with red-light therapy. (30:36)

  • Sitting vs standing when wiping. (34:49)

  • AI hallucinations. (37:42)

  • Predicting future trends. (44:45)

  • The Good vs. The Great. (51:01)

  • #Quah question #1 – With progressive overload, is it more than you did recently or more than you’ve ever done? Sometimes I wonder if I’m building progress when I go back to an exercise I haven’t done in a while, and I’m making progress week by week, but still lifting less weight than I did in that exercise in the past. (54:01)

  • #Quah question #2 – Should your first set be the heaviest and then go lighter or vice versa? (56:28)

  • #Quah question #3 – Does it matter what time you go to bed, as long as you get 8 hours? (58:52)

  • #Quah question #4 – I am looking to lose fat but also want to add some muscle. What should I focus on first? I have been lifting consistently for several years and have put on some belly fat. I am consuming approximately 1600-1700 calories with 130-140 grams of protein. I’m doing Muscle Mommy, but the fat doesn’t want to leave. Any suggestions? (1:00:02)
