(4:45) - I'm working on healing hypothalamic amenorrhea and having a hard time (mostly mentally) on how to reduce exercise and also increase calories. Have you worked with clients who did not have to eliminate exercise completely? I worked hard to get where I am with my body just to realize my health is suffering. Any tips?
(11:15) - Front rack vs back rack barbell position for quad activation. I’ve noticed in the 4 day/ week powerbuilding program the quad focused exercises, such as the elevated reverse squats and barbell cyclist squats, are loaded on the back. I’m curious if there is much of a difference in quad activation between the front rack and back rack positions.
(20:45) - How much mass can you gain in a year naturally after 2 years of training?
(29:24) - I am a trainer and I motivate all my clients and. Sometimes is hard to motivate myself! Any tips?
(34:05) - How to find the actual range for maintenance calories for a client? I know using a TDEE calculator gives an estimation, but is there a way to give a client their range or just say “ok your maintenance is 2,100 give or take some”?
(38:30) - When you’ve been diagnosed with hormone imbalances, how should you approach diet and training?
