#Quah question #1 - How can I get a solid core? Not banging abs, but a strong engaged core? How do you train to naturally engage them in normal day to day activities to prevent injury? (1:03:03)
#Quah question #2 - What are the best exercises to work the lower lats? Obviously, you cannot target solely the lower part. (1:07:31)
#Quah question #3 - Can you guys please give your opinion on meal prep companies? Do you think they're worth it for someone who's extremely busy?
