#Quah question #1 - Can you please give me more details on why our body needs rest days and time to recover & adapt? I’ve heard it over and over and still have this drive that makes me want to work hard every day. It’s hard for me to slow down and really give my body a rest, and I am fatigued. On a practical level, what can I tell myself and how can I convince myself that it's safe to take a rest day and I won’t lose progress? (58:26)
#Quah question #2 - What’s the importance of ‘time under tension’ in the context of building strength vs size? (1:05:30)
#Quah question #3 - My range of motion and form gets compromised as I lift heavier. Is it better to go lighter and get a deeper range of motion & more control or stay heavier with a more limited range of motion? (1:11:15)
#Quah question #4 - How many warm-up sets do you suggest? As you progress through the workout and get to the 3rd and 4th exercises do you need as many warm-up sets? (1:15:57)
