2188: How to Properly Train to Failure, When to Eat Post Workout, the Qualities That Position a Trainer for Success & More

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.

• Parent hack: Books for toys. (36:03)

• Sal’s latest peptide review: TB-500 and Thymosin Alpha. (38:20)

• Shout out to David Meltzer. (1:02:07)

• #Quah question #1 - How do I train to failure for the most muscle building when I train alone? (1:03:08)

• #Quah question #2 - Every time my family sees a video of me squatting, they say “Watch your knees,” because the women in my family have a history of arthritis & bursitis. Are there any special considerations I should consider while lifting with that history? (1:10:24)

• #Quah question #3 - You talk about the detriment of eating immediately post-workout as your body is still in sympathetic drive. However, I’ve heard from other sources that this is precisely why you “should” eat post-workout as it gets the body into parasympathetic drive quickly. So, I’m confused, should I eat or not eat immediately after my workout? (1:18:44)

• #Quah question #4 - If you owned a gym today, what requirements would a brand new trainer need to meet before they could train someone in your gym? (1:22:47)
