Timestamps:
(5:55) - Do you think that we all have a set weight where we’re most genetically comfortable at?
(16:10) - What are your thoughts on body types, especially endomorphs? Do you think there is validity in the idea that they have slower metabolisms, insulin resistance, and might need to be lower carb/higher fat compared to an ecto/meso?
(20:55) - I work a 9-5 desk job, workout every day for about an hour and am also training for a marathon. I usually eat between 1400-1600 calories per day but my question is is how do i know how much is enough?
(25:15) - What do you think about taking time away from Hypertrophy training to “resensitize” the body?
(33:40) - Where should my calories be for body recomp? Maintenance, cycling, higher on training days, etc?
(36:25) - I’m a female, 25 years old, 108 lb, in a reverse diet. I’ve been weighing myself daily and for the past week my weight has spiked up to 110-111 lbs. this spike up has happened before but never lasts this long. I have felt ‘heavy/bloated’ as well. It may be water retention, hormones, monthly period, etc. i track my calories diligently everyday and train 4-6 days a week. I don’t believe I’ve hit my maintenance calories yet because I still have mental food cravings and increased hunger about every two days. I just wanted to get your professional opinion on this spike up. What would you do in my situation?
(40:15) - How should a college football player structure in season nutrition?
(46:20) - Why am I so hungry on rest days? I have one rest day a week and I am starving all day, much hungrier than heavy WOD days, thoughts?
(47:40) - What are your thoughts on these new vitamin patches? I have digestive issues with many vitamins and these look like a great alternative, yet do they work?
(48:45) - What’s your opinion on the liver hype?
(50:55) - How do you recommend navigating the holiday season in a cut? From a periodization standpoint
(52:55) - Nervous to try a bulk. How do you best ensure that muscle is built, not fat?
(54:05) - Is there a difference if you try to hit daily macros or weekly macros?
(56:30) - Carb front or back loading? Which one for what kind of scenario?

| 0:12.9 | thank you for taking the time to listen and learn with me so that you can apply what you are |
| 0:17.8 | about to learn, take my strategies, use these tools, and finally have |
| 0:21.8 | some serious methods to see sustainable success with your physique, your mind, and your life. |
| 0:28.2 | This podcast was built on the foundation of applied education, and I'm excited for you to be here |

| 0:52.5 | I have one, two, three, four, five, six, seven, eight, nine, ten, eleven, twelve, thirteen, fourteen, fourteen, fifteen, fifteen questions that I do think I'll be able to get through today. |
| 1:03.6 | Some of them are more in depth. Some of them are really brief and quick, which will make this easy to do a rapid fire because I probably will only get on long |
| 1:11.3 | tangents on a couple of them. |
| 1:13.0 | But before I dive into this, excuse me, before I dive into this podcast, I wanted to say a |

| 1:36.1 | open for the month of September, but I'm feeling generous. It's October now. We're going to keep it |
| 1:40.6 | open. I love the interaction. I honestly, truth, honestly God, was not going to open this back up. It wasn't going to keep it open. I love the interaction. I honestly, true, honestly God, |
| 1:45.5 | was not going to open this back up. It wasn't going to be an ongoing free thing. Um, |
| 1:49.7 | because usually you have to get an ebook. Um, but the reality is, is I'm going to engage with people |
| 1:53.7 | just as much as I was before. And I'd rather have more people in there, engaging, talking, |
