Muscle for Life with Mike Matthews

Ep. #537: Q&A: Touch-and-Go Deadlift, Sugar Intake, Calorie Calculators, and More


Listen Later

I’ve churned through over 150,000 emails, social media comments and messages, and blog comments in the last 6 years.

And that means I’ve fielded a ton of questions.

As you can imagine, some questions pop up more often than others, and I thought it might be helpful to take a little time every month to choose a few and record and share my answers.

So, in this round, I answer the following four questions:

1. Should I do touch and go deadlifts or should I pause between reps?
2. How quickly should I expect results with muscle gain and fat loss?
3. How much sugar can I eat and still be healthy?
4. I’ve used online calculators to determine my ideal calorie intake, how come I’m not losing or gaining weight?

If you have a question you’d like me to answer, leave a comment below or if you want a faster response, send an email to [email protected].
