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.

  • #Quah question #1 – Maybe this is silly, but I'm trying to take rest periods seriously and have a question. During my two to three minutes, do I need to sit still that whole time or can I prep the bar for my next workout and/or like stretch? (1:04:25)

  • #Quah question #4 – What are the pros and cons of cold plunge/ice baths, sauna, and hot tubs/hot baths? Is one better for weight loss, muscle gain, and mental health/recovery? (1:12:22)
