3:30 - Hey Cody! I appreciate you! And wanted to ask: any tips for someone who has been lower carb / carb cycling / ketotarian for awhile and now is tackling eating higher carb / lower fat for muscle, performance and muscle maintenance and neurotype? I started to make swaps for leaner cuts of meat like chicken breast, turkey, and salmon - instead of a lot of beef and eggs - to help to lower fat intake and I am eating a lot of rice and potatoes for quality carbs and starches. Just looking for ways to eat higher carb and lower fat that helps me nail my macros. Been going over on fat intake. One snack I am loving is low fat Greek yogurt with whey and berries.

13:15 - Calorie vs carb cycling. Any one better than the other and can they be done simultaneously?

20:30 - Touch and go vs dead stop for deadlifts? My goals are mainly leg hypertrophy & athletic ability. Second comes strength and lifting

26:10 - I’m a 911 dispatcher and have to do shift work. I’m a solid morning person and will be going on nights for the next six months starting in April. I sleep 4-5 hours if I’m lucky on the nights I work (but 8+ on the weekends). I was planning on doing a reverse diet and maintaining for several months after being on a diet for the majority of this year. Would you recommend going back into a diet to reach my final goals while I’m not getting adequate sleep? I’m a structured person and I don’t mind it being more difficult with lowered energy levels. I want to reach my goals (I only have another 10-15 pounds to lose).

29:10 - How to / tips to build the proper athletic base and capability in kids. Age by age training advice? When is the right time to introduce weight training?

35:20 - Does the tailored trainer app have programs that utilize dumbbells only? Or do you have to have access to a gym/gym equipment, barbells, etc, to get the most out of the app? I started strength training shortly into the pandemic and have collected dumbbell weights from 3# to 50#. While gyms are back open, I just do not have the extra time in my day with work, family and other extracurriculars, to make it to the gym, but I want to continue to gain strength as much as I can with what I have available at home and wonder if it the app will be helpful if I don't go to the gym to train. Thank you
