Today we take a new approach to an Instagram Q&A episode and instead of picking and choosing we answered ALL SUBMITTED QUESTIONS. 23 questions to be precise. We sectioned off the questions into first nutrition related questions, then training related questions, and finally lifestyle related questions. Thank you to all of you guys who submitted your questions for this weeks episode and thank you for listening! ✌️

Nutrition Questions: 

1. Does a higher fat macro split tend to favor a “lifestyle lean” Aesthetic, or is this anecdotal?
2. Is it possible to go too slow in a building phase? I.E. 100 cal increase every 3 weeks versus every week? 
3. Sucralose. Avoid or don’t worry? 
4. Been on a cut to lean out. Is it bad to be on a cut for too long? 
5. How long should cuts and bulks be? Until you hit goals, or what is the recommendation? 
6. Nutrition and lifestyle tips for a college student who doesn’t wanna “miss out?” 

Training Questions: 

1. Studies or new findings that have changed the way you train and program?
2. On days with a lengthened overload squat, would you prefer lengthened or short overload leg extension as secondary movement. 
3. If young training age, will “ME” (muscular endurance) training translate to overall/max strength. If so, how long? 
4. Do you find for yourself and clients, that training 6 out of 7 days is too much? 
5. Thoughts on Jeff Nippard style full body training 5x/week?
6. Thoughts on single set to failure training? 
7. Best Pull-up progression? Bands, negatives? 
8. Resources we recommend for coaches wanting to expand training knowledge? 
9. Best way to gauge RIR if new to this type of training? 
10. Do we recommend warming up and stretching before, or just starting with light weight for first movement? (second part; stretch before or after training?) 
11. Best rep range for novice? 
12. Would you ever use eccentric-only training? Maybe at the end of a set? 
13. How do you gauge weights for backoff set on primary lift? 

Lifestyle Questions: 

1. I’m getting adequate total sleep, but very little DEEP sleep. Thoughts/tips/effects?
2. Best tips for a good night sleep? 
3. Best recovery protocols? Foam roll, sauna, muscle stim? Others?
4. How do you stay MOTIVATED to train solo?
