#Quah question #1 - Any suggestions to help build muscle more efficiently if I don't have time to rest at least 2-3 minutes between sets and can’t go more than 3 days a week to the gym? Can I still build muscle by resting 1 minute to a minute and a half between sets? (54:31)
#Quah question #2 - Is it possible to do too much walking & it could cause metabolic harm? (58:08)
#Quah question #3 - What is your recommendation for a 13-year-old boy who would like to start strength training? I have been lifting for years and have several of your programs, but I want to make sure what he does is age-appropriate and that he begins this journey the right way. (1:00:05)
#Quah question #4 - I’ve just come across the term “functional fitness.” Have you all heard of this? What are the differences and benefits between traditional lifting and functional fitness? (1:04:07)
