8:05 - My resting heart rate is usually around 60. I have noticed that when I start to reduce my calories for a cut, it drops to the low 40s. My training stays the same. Is this something to be concerned about? Possible explanations?

12:55 - I am 52 and peri-menopause. I have gained 25 pounds over the last 2 years and am unable to budge more than 5 pounds or so. I stopped running and doing a lot of cardio and have only been walking flat and incline for about 2 years. My question I guess is how much protein, carbs and fat should I be eating in this stage of my life? I weigh 175 and am 5’5. I would like to get down to 150/155. I have been working out weights and cardio since in my 20s. I just need serious help.

18:30 - Which is more important for achieving health, body composition or weight goals? My weight is barely in the healthy range according to BMI and other weight charts, but according to body composition, I’m in the ideal or sometimes even the lean zone for women my age. So which is it? It seems like maybe I should try to lose a few pounds to get in a healthier weight range, but I don’t want my body fat percentage to drop too low, especially as I’m getting older. Do you recommend clients pay more attention to weight or to body composition, and why is it so dang hard to figure out what’s actually healthy?

26:30 - Could you break down what you would do for programming with in-person 50 min sessions vs. what you might do for someone in remote coaching? Did you have a specific system when you were coaching in-person?

36:45 - I am wanting to eventually become a nutrition coach myself. I am starting to update my instagram. It has been my personal account for 8 years or so. Should I delete some of the pictures or do you have any suggestions? I don’t want to create a new account because I feel like it would be even harder to get a following.

38:45 - The back of my creatine says to drink a gallon of water a day. I usually do drink a gallon a day, that’s a habit I started over a year ago. However, life happens and sometimes I don’t drink that much. Is that ok? Can creatine have increased amounts in the body if I don’t drink enough water?

44:20 - Does it matter if diet breaks and deloads happen on the same week?

49:10 - Do meals you intake preworkout help recovery? Or strictly the post workout meals?

52:20 - How to get rid of stubborn belly fat but maintain weight?

57:10 - Minimum grams or % of daily protein that should come from animal sources (vs. trace/veg)?

59:00 - Can resting too long between sets negatively impact gains? I know too short of rest periods can.
