  • #Quah question #1 - I\u2019m on a reverse diet. I do not want to weigh myself because it messes with my mind. How do I know my metabolism is improving? (58:33)

  • #Quah question #2 - Was listening to some old episodes and the protein recommended was .5-.7 grams per pound. When and why did that change to 1 gram per pound? (1:00:34)

  • #Quah question #3 - Hearing people say they eat a lot of grams of protein and when I ask about portions, it seems low. Do you think a lot of people don\u2019t realize that 100g chicken breast isn\u2019t 100g protein? I\u2019ve come to realize a lot of people have misconceptions. (1:02:56)

  • #Quah question #4 - Is it a good idea to do a deloading week after each phase of a workout plan? (1:08:13)
