Q&A: Pre-Exhaustion, Best Grip for Engaging the Lats, and Mask Wearing

Published: Oct. 21, 2020, 10 a.m.

I\u2019ve churned through over 150,000 emails, social media comments and messages, and blog comments in the last 6 years.

\n

And that means I\u2019ve fielded a ton of questions.

\n

As you can imagine, some questions pop up more often than others, and I thought it might be helpful to take a little time every month to choose a few and record and share my answers.

\n

So, in this round, I answer the following three questions:

\n
    \n
  1. Is it a good idea to get a pump before hitting the weights?
    \n
    2. \n
  2. Are pronated grips or neutral grips better for engaging lats?
    \n
    3. \n
  3. How much does a mask help fight the transmission of viruses?
    \n
    4. \n
\n

If you have a question you\u2019d like me to answer, leave a comment below or if you want a faster response, send an email to mike@muscleforlife.com.
