Hey Zach, loving the energy and dedication you bring to your workouts! 💪Have you found that these specific pre-workout adjustments have made a noticeable difference in your performance and gains?

[@monicasoriano8581]

Love the power! Making specific pre-workout adjustments can indeed have a noticeable impact on performance and gains. I can say that it's important to tailor your pre-workout routine to your individual needs and goals and consult with a fitness professional or nutritionist for personalized advice.

[@thefastlanecars8799]

Hey man, got a question I've had for a while. How high in working weight do you think you could go on flat dumbbell bench press? Also what would you think your one rep max could be? I see you doing 120's sometimes but l've never seen 125's or higher. You're one of the strongest guys I've seen on here so I assume you can go pretty heavy. Always wondered, I'm just now touching the 100's myself. Love the information in your videos! (I commented this a couple videos ago but was way late so I didn’t think you’d see!)

[@JustMerkChannel]

Hmm, I usually begin most chest sessions with a fly so I don’t have to go as heavy with the working weight on my presses but I think 130 could be a smooth 8-10 for me right now. As for a 1 rep max, man I really don’t know. I’d like to think I’d get close to 400 on bench, so we’ll go with that lol

[@Andres-uz2gq]

Bro I've never seen you look this exhausted... Maybe you should rest for a while... Everything we do in life has a point of diminishing returns even for an enhanced lifter... Just saying this because I care about you. You have been one of my biggest inspirations since I started working out years ago ❤️‍🔥

[@terrenceanderson9970]

I noticed that too, energy is a little different, more edits and kinda sounds winded. Still good content tho

[@JustMerkChannel]

Thank you brother, I appreciate your concern. I think a good bit of it has been from taking on more responsibility outside of training. I always look forward to a new challenge, but it doesn’t come without a cost.

Man i really love your videos and appreciate the effort u put into them, but the voice quality is so terrible like the noise is always high and your voice is so far, maybe you need like a mic closer to you so we can hear you better without the background noises. Keept it up

[@JustMerkChannel]

Hey, thank you for letting me know. Was this video better than some of the previous uploads? And this one, we went with a mic attached to my collar so the sound quality should’ve been much clearer.

Bruh I'm from india and here everyone starts leg day with some smith machine squats or just squats and end with calves. You started from calves then moved on to leg extensions. So it's alright to workout from the calves then quads and hamstrings Yeah?

Bro how do you stay so Disciplined and you follow any skincare routine? Love from India. I really admire you. ❤

My routine is really everything for me and I’m fortunate to be able to create one around what I love to do. From there it’s just about keeping things simple and finding new challenges to keep that fire inside burning.

Hi I love ur content. Thanks for taking time to post videos. I really like when u show what u eat all day. I have a question. How much time should u rest between sets?

Hey thanks for watching. For rest time between set I’m usually taking between 90 seconds (for isolation movements) and 2-3 minutes (for heavier compound movements.

So much reference on the branding. Get that paper dude but make your videos more natural. It looks like chum style but hard try. It gives a feeling that if you make a wrong move then you will be fired. 😅.
