Then in other episodes, I hear that weight is arbitrary and that mind-muscle connection is paramount in building muscle. Yet in other episodes, I hear that practicing movements with good technique sends more muscle-building signals. What’s the deal? Is it all true?  (44:27) #Quah question #2 – With all this extra time, I find myself trying to fill my day with activity. Is it too much to do yoga, long hikes, walks, and a strength training workout every day? (48:46) #Quah question #3 – Given that most of us are working out from home now, is there any benefit or drawback to working out barefoot vs flat shoes or cross-trainers? (54:01) #Quah question #4 – What causes your knees to cave in when you squat and how do you fix this problem?
