Questions on the show:

Q1: A question I have for you that I’ve been thinking of, that might actually be a good podcast question. How do you maintain your passion and approach to training and nutrition at this point? Having three kids, you’re still super consistent with it. I know having a health and physique-oriented business plays a big part, but otherwise, would you be as committed as you are now? Just something I’ve been wondering as I’ve gotten older. Like you, my life was all about training through my twenties, but it has waned a bit to an extent as I’ve hit 30. Just trying to light that fire back up!

Q2: Hey man I have a question for you. Do you know of any research on the effects of not drinking enough water while supplementing with creatine? This is never talked about so I am curious. Q3: What is the best way to measure progress when in a gaining phase? Q4: I know you love upper/lower splits, but I feel my upper body doesn't get enough attention on an upper/lower split. What can I do to work around that? Q5: If the volume is equated, how beneficial is frequency for building muscle?
