17:20 Practical constraints: time, energy, joints, and why consistency beats extreme programs

22:05 Who tends to do better with volume vs intensity based on sports background and preference

26:05 Quick Q&A: 100 squats a day, daily movement, and avoiding all or nothing thinking

30:40 Template for most people: the 2 to 3 principle and auto regulation

36:10 Q&A: not feeling lats in pulldowns and rows, tension control and isometrics

44:10 Q&A: pistol squat balance and ankle mobility, hips and range of tension

48:00 Q&A: partial reps, using what helps you hit the objective

51:20 Wrap up: use volume and intensity as tools, avoid extremes, stay consistent
