About Today’s Conversation

Here are the questions we dove into in today’s episode:

Rod K.: I’ve got a question. How do you stay fit when you travel? I’m always on the go and would love to know what to eat, etc.

Noah B.: What’s the best thing to eat before early morning workouts?

Andrew G.: How do you find time to workout on a daily basis? Leave the office early? Go to the gym at lunch?

Tim J.: What are some ways to work a regular fitness schedule into your already insanely busy life? For me, exercising has almost always been thrown out by “not being able to fit it in”.

Ozeal D.: Ideas on a quick and simple, healthy meal?

Next week we will be back with more great interviews!

About Today’s Conversation

Here are the questions we dove into in today’s episode:

Josh T.: - I’m interested in different approaches to keeping your muscles off balance. For example, how often should I switch up my lifting routine? When should I change up the exercises? How often should I change up the reps?

Geordie W. - How about an ab focus question? Like how often should you focus on abs? What are the best exercises for lower abs?

Richard V. - I assume you spent 90 days on a fairly specific schedule. Will you be publishing that with details? Meaning, the times you ate and what you ate when…and the times you worked out, when you would do more cardio than weights, when you focused more on reps than weight, and so on?

Patrick Dixon - I would like to know the truth on carbs. Many say to stay away from them all together, others say to be sure to eat the right kinds, such as steel cut oats for breakfast. It gets confusing. I’ve added a daily dose of juiced vegetables to my diet and feel some noticeable advantages so far: better overall feeling, clearer skin, more energy.

Look for more Q&A next week!
