2702: 5 Obstacles to Being a Strong Dad

In this episode of Quah (Q & A), Sal, Adam & Justin coach four Pump Heads via Zoom. Mind Pump Fit Tip: There is a RIGHT way to use substances that make you feel good to help with mental health. (2:35) Sal's experience with Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) therapy so far. (13:16) Putting a spotlight on PETA. (32:08) Lab Grown meat vs. Real meat. (34:15) When the music really hits you. (42:57) Fun Facts with Justin: Heavy metal and termites. (47:14) Are banks going down? (49:46) What is it with Sal and racing? (52:51) Good credit, higher mortgage fees. (54:49) New product alert from Caldera. (1:01:10) Shout out to Norada Real Estate. (1:03:25) #ListenerLive question #1 - Any guidance for balancing commitment toward a specific goal with awareness regarding when to shift gears? (1:05:02) #ListenerLive question #2 - How reliable are body scans? I decided to get a trainer to help me figure out nutrition more. I wanted to see more of the muscle I had been building, so I told her I'd like to cut fat. We did a body scan, and it said to eat about 1750 calories to lean out, which should be a 500-calorie deficit (according to the scan). (1:18:01) #ListenerLive question #3 - After completing MAPS Anabolic, should I continue to chase the strength gains in a program like MAPS Strong, or should I move into something like Performance? While I continue to get stronger with every workout, I'm beginning to experience progressive stiffness throughout my lower back that I cannot seem to shake even with increased mobility work. (1:35:02) #ListenerLive question #4 - I am currently 175 lbs., dropping about .5lb per week. Ideally, I'd like to get macro-focused again, so I can decrease some of the cardio. My goal is to maintain about 160lb. I don't know if I need to stay at maintenance calories while I decrease the cardio. Do I slowly back out of the cardio? I'm scared to scale back too much and gain weight. (1:42:36) Related Links/Products Mentioned Ask a question to Mind Pump, live!
