“If someone says to me: “to get to your goal you need to do this’’, I would want to understand why, make sure I understand it thoroughly and then put it into place with that understanding. I’ll do whatever it takes, I’ll take whatever actions to get to my goal.”

– Andy Naylor

In This Episode:

• If I eat on a caloric deficit and I don't eat 1gr of protein per pound of bodyweight will I be still able to still lose body fat? What are the pros and cons?
• Progressive overload , what is it? Why do I need to add more weight? Can I not just do more workout and keep the weight the same?
• I'm on a weight plateau and a friend of mine told me I should increase my calories, this doesn't make any sense to me, what are your thoughts on that?
• What's the best app to track my food? Is it even worth it? Why do I need to track my calories? This macro tracking is OCD.
• Will I ever get to my goal?
• How can I improve nutrition accuracy when traveling and eating at events?
• If I have a busy week and have the choice between either 7 hours sleeping or working out, but not both, which is best?
• I used to do cardio between sets of weights like jumping jacks or burpees, is this okay to do rather than resting?
• Are IF and weight lifting for muscle gains compatible strategies?
• Any tips for fitting in more steps on work days?
• Explain ideas on having flexible training times..I.e. when I've had a bad night I can't train in the mornings so train in late afternoon. Should my meals and supplements stay the same?
• My left knee has no cartilage. Should I skip leg days?
