NLP664 - TRT Acne, Fat Loss Soreness, Deficit sleep issues, Coaching vs Therapy & More Q & A

In this month's Q&A episode, Brad and Craig dive into your questions and keep it real with no fluff—just honest insight and actionable advice.

We cover a wide range of topics, including:

• Why you might be getting extra sore in a calorie deficit and how to adjust your training accordingly
• What to do when life feels like you're chasing your tail and stuck in circles
• The hardest things we've ever done—and what we learned from them
• How to deal with acne after starting testosterone replacement therapy (TRT)
• What to do after a bad day (or weekend) of eating—without spiraling
• The key differences between therapy and coaching and how to know which one you need
• Whether it's time to reverse back to maintenance calories if your sleep is seriously suffering

This one's a mix of mindset, hormones, lifestyle, and coaching wisdom. If you've ever had one of these questions cross your mind, this episode is for you.
