1:01:04 #Quah question #1 - I would love to hear how each member of Mind Pump is currently training right now. What program does their training most closely resemble?
1:07:47 #Quah question #2 - Are full body or body part splits optimal for hypertrophy? Hoping sets and frequency equal.
1:14:25 #Quah question #3 - Are peptides and TRT still allowed to claim natural?
1:16:38 #Quah question #4 - I’m trying to train for a competition at my local gym where you have to rep your body weight on the bench and squat as many times as you can. Whoever has the most combined reps wins. I’m not sure what is the best way to approach this?

As a recovered vegan, I can attest at how increasing my protein, and changing to an animal based diet, changed my body composition, hormones, helped my anxiety and mental health, my hair skin and nails improved.. I can go on an on. I was vegetarian/ vegan from age 12 to into my 20s. Now approaching 40 I’m in the best health and shape of my life. I’m happy to hear about the public starting to wake up

[@helenmarie8119]

👏 👏 👏

[@Kassette209]

I’ve been preaching high protein for months. My family is asking how I’m losing weight and I keep preaching protein and strength training. 🎉

Weak sick and fearful people don't fight back

[@FittnWell]

I've recently started a high protein, moderate fats, and low carb life style. Honestly, it has changed my life completely. I'm no longer hungry during the day, and especially at night. I'm no longer getting up in the middle of the night looking for food to eat. I'm not looking back on any other way to eat.

[@jsolomon566]

I can FEEL the eye-roll from Dr. Gabrielle Lyons.

[@Rtr.AmanJha]

Unreal how you guys release such quality content so often and it never seems to plateau... definitely a sign of taking adequate protein 😌

[@mackenzienixon9903]

I’ll tell y’all what… after listening to this podcast that’s packed with facts & science on how to build & recomp your body, it is VERY difficult to listen to other podcasts that are loosely based on opinions and trends. I can’t even listen to the message they are trying to send & have to turn it off because I know that none of it actually works. I’ve just recently begun lifting weights (started Dec 4) & did not have a clue what I was doing.. so lost. I found this podcast & am SO happy with the changes in my body so far. I’m strength training & on a program. It’s Feb 9, & I’ve lost 14 pounds. This month, I am really focusing on protein intake & purchased a scale for my kitchen. I am ready to amp this thing UP. Thank yall so much.

[@aprilsimoncini7679]

Because the government always has our best interests in mind🙄😒🤦‍♀️

[@user-ct7cp6cd2x]

Konnichiwa from Japan. I want to thank you for your no nonsense approach to health and fitness. It has been a great expiration as I enter my 60th year on this spinning rock we call home.

[@Camposchris727]

No holds bar against the government, love the transparency and never backing down from y’all

[@sarahhoskins9752]

My sister, who is 15 years older and me was living the plants based, low peotein diet. Her mindset was based off government propaganda to push the food permid as a way of portion eating. She finally changed her diet to increase her protein intake! Not only has she dropped weight, but food cravings have significantly decreased. Thanks for continuing to publish your contexts. Listen all the time while working out!

[@kimberlyzukowsky9912]

After preaching for years to my family about the importance of protein, they are finally consciously trying to put more protein in their meals! Such a win for me.

[@CheapJabroni]

I’ve never made so much progress until I started being more aware of my protein intake. This is exactly the problem. People take whatever is told to them as the truth as if that specific thing is the only thing that would influence their stance on it. Do what’s best for YOU. Not what people tell you is best for you based on an alternate agenda.

[@brycel.williams8624]

Came for the fitness tips, stayed for the BIG life conversations and conundrums. Keep up the great work, fellas 💪🏾

[@annaK-nz2nn]

I recently found your podcast and I can say without a doubt you guys are the best in this space!! I listen to lots of fitness podcast and KZbin and you guys are spot on !!! Thank you!

[@sharena0007]

Protein is so important! I am a professional health care worker and I am continually attempting to educate my coworkers on the importance of protein. Very few people are aware of how little protein they are routinely consuming!!

[@kyle.plattner]

I can't say enough good about the content you guys are putting out! I huge thank you. I'm grateful for the mindset shift it's caused for me. It's help put me on a better path in the way of eating adequate protein and not relying on cardio so much. My next goal is to figure out consistent programming that works for me! Please keep up the great work! It's helping.

[@rebekahbrittain7150]

I’m two weeks into tracking and meeting my protein. Both weeks I’ve been able to get through four weight lifting sessions without being so sore I feel like I can’t go work out again the next day! After years of not being able to stick to a plan my body is finally recovering with the increased protein and good sleep. I appreciate you guys bringing attention to things that are total BS and propaganda!

[@josephregel1]

It is sad that people are still pushing "low protein," but based on all the comments you said were made on that article, it sounds like people are learning how important protein is. It was great to hear that doctors were also commenting on how important increased protein is. Great show guys. Thanks!

[@suhasalameh2145]

This is crazy! People are getting more knowledgeable and the agendas is pushed too much in a very stupid way! Misinformation is so sickening and surprisingly done on a large scale! Money is literally more important than human life for those people. Love you guys for being one of the good voices that spread right information around! Thank you ❤

[@lanzadavid]

I have been prioritizing protein for over a year now, first from Dr Lyons. Haven't felt or looked better, and I'm not even close to where I want to be. Thanks guys, keep it up.

[@andyspastryshop]

I am soooooooo happy you all are preaching this message and debunking all this BS! Keep it up and get people healthy!!!😊😊😊

[@mihapirnar8915]

I am so grateful my buddy he told me for this podcast. If it wasn't for you guys, I'd still be overtraining and maybe even getting injured. Now i feel and look bettter than i did in my first 3 years of training. Keep up the great work Do not stop.

[@user-yf9oy4ki8c]

GREAT Show...Thank you for your expertise in this protein debate! Our Government does not have our best interest in mind and can care less about our overall health! Keep spreading the truth on nutrition and health!

[@dustandemello3357]

Great content as always! We need more of these ideas on protein intake getting into the hands of the general population. Unfortunately this won’t come from the government, the media or even doctors but rather from experts such as those on this channel so keep pushing! It’s all a system. I spent a period of time working with physicians and learned that through the intensive training on treating sickness and disease only about less than 25 hours are spent on nutrition.

[@rossfarmer2472]

Love the show, my friends and family are fed up with me telling them to eat more protein all the time lol. Have a good one!

[@mattwilliams9480]

Keep fighting the good fight, guys!! The desire for folks health and overall happiness is contagious!!

The microscope comment by Adam was gold! I burst out laughing in my car all alone! You know its a good podcast when you're laughing out loud alone.

I come here for the health and fitness content, but I love all of the topics you guys discuss on here. Always so blatantly honest and raw- LOVE IT ❤

[@brandonm7356]

Great episode !!! I finally started tracking my protein intake by weighing my food out with a digital scale and found I was underconsuming protein; I recover so much faster than before and notice when I miss protein targets. Keep up the great work !!

Scariest quote ever - “I’m from the government and I’m here to help you.” 😒😒😒

[@gkmaz4030]

Ok - I do total body 3x week. Mon/wed/friday. At the squat rack. Shoulder press. Biceps curls. Pull up. Lots hip mobility. Squats. Dead lifts. Banded deep squats. Hold. - Tuesday/ Thursday / Saturday. Flow yoga. Random other weightlifting / sprints or walk. I ❤ my schedule. Sometimes I push too hard and boom 💥 I get sick but knock on wood 🪵 50 and going strong. 💪 I owe this to mind pump. I used to take weight lifting aerobic classes. I was burned out then I found u guys 🎉❤🎉❤

Totally Sal. My theory why men avoid the doctors is due to avoidance of vulnerability and not wanting to feel “weak”.

[@Gibbsterunie]

Thank you guys for bringing up *orn! My husband and I have been examining this in our own relationship and the damage those things have caused all around. It's hard to find many people out there that are willing to admit how much its warped our brains and how normalized it.

Lmao!! Steve! You gotta get in here! Love it 😂

[@christineoboyle4597]

Great content, as always. I had to giggle, because it reminded me of a conversation I had with my Dad. He basically was calling bs on the typical American breakfast. "It's all grain and corn...that's what they feed to Pigs!" He also had an argument about vegetables having no nutritional value, which I knew was total bs as well, but I was no match for his "Irish Logic". Thank you for the info and the memory.

[@khanky2]

Thanks for discussing this.

[@joshyounts]

I love Adam’s no BS answers lol We are definitely making more money, but poorer because inflation lol

[@paulwilson5490]

On the dog/human cloning argument, nature vs nurture plays a significant role. Even if you had the same exact copy you could never perfectly replicate its upbringing including factors like environment, technological advances, or personal interactions. You might get the same dog physically, but there is no way you could raise that dog in the exact same way you did the first time and therefore his/her personality, mannerisms, fears, etc could all be different. You may get the same dna when cloning but you will never get the same result.

[@wendymcgill7717]

Thanks for another great video!

[@kevinsonnywright2327]

Thanks guys 👍

[@Burkhimself]

[@buffNelly1989]

LOL mindpump is my only source of information 😅 I have a hard time keeping my protein under 200 a day lol 😂 no matter what the mood is…you all help bring a smile to my face! Thanks 😊

[@stinkyham9050]

Me too, I track every calorie I consume (weighed on a food scale) and don't understand why these guys keep saying it's hard to hit a protein target. Eat eggs, chicken, beef, cottage cheese and Greek yogurt everyday and trust me you'll hit that goal easy. If anything, I struggle with eating enough carbs.

[@Jd36714]

Great pod!

[@annettefowler4704]

Thank you for your knowledge ❤

[@ashikime]

I love the dance cardio classes in this format. It's how I imagine a dance class feeling 😂❤. I'd classify this as one of the intermediate-advanced versions. Thanks for a really fun and challenging class!!

[@hyperion_carnivore]

One of the biggest reasons I love being carnivore is I don't have to supplement protein. I just eat beef and eggs.

[@drip369]

I wonder how many people down here know that the daily recommended amount of calories being 2000 is not for every adult, it's for children and general women that are thin, because back in the day when these things were constructed, it wasn't common to see anybody overweight

[@GottaSayIt]

People will live longer but they don’t want to work longer. In fact people want to retire while they are still healthy. We need to stop waiting for government to figure it out.

[@ryangreenlee7242]

Great content! Eating too little protein was one of my setbacks when I first started. It's the only thing that I find I have to actually try to hit. Carbs and fats are easy to hit.

[@dannelson7573]

Thanks for the great content! I am starting your program on Sunday!!! I will update you on my success in 90 days and 9 months!! Thanks again. My protein goal is 175 grams each day before 8pm.

[@accordingtocd2064]

It is so very hard to eat enough protein. I know bc I am finally figuring out ( based on this channel) how to loose fat, gain muscle and change my body composition at 50. I have been going to the gym for over 20 years and finally figuring it out.

[@dangarin580]

Just getting back into lifting after a few year layoff. The best thing I’ve done is add protein first-based on your recommendation. Definitely getting leaner and the energy is staying up in the gym. Appreciate all the advice you guys give!

[@brendadaviswilson9243]

The best way to change your body with nutrition is to keep protein high.

[@macmclark65]

Let's go!

[@nicholascowley8885]

2 shows you guys should check out… Severance- about people that choose to split their consciousness into two parts, the work self, and the home self. Awesome show. Foundation- the king or ruler in this show literally clones themselves, and helps raise the clone, so essentially the same ruler remains in charge in perpetuity

[@ConfusedPiano-nh4nt]

Send the programs this way.

[@BRAO_art]

To Justin. There's a movie called The Surrogates and a show called Altered Carbon that deal with the vessel, cloning, changnig of bodies subject. They're pretty cool and I think he'll dig it!!

[@Loripogo]

Focused and increased protein consumption after 25 vegetarian and zero focus on protein has changed my life! Mind Pump and knowledge has changed my life! Months away from 50 and now living my best life! ❤️Mind Pump #onelifeonebody

[@jakubchrobry3701]

What was the primary reason for why you increased your protein? To gain muscle? To lose weight? To solve digestion issues? To better your health? Or something else? How much protein do you now consume? How much did you before?

[@OceanDrive321]

Carnivore 43 days. 126lb, 7%bf if you trust smart scales. Was eating 3000 calories and 300g prot in Jan. Now body craves up to 4700 calories and 400g of protein, 300g fat. Cold plunge, 14m cardio, 20m workout, 15m sauna, red lights, wim hof, nsdr all daily. Work on foot 5-6d/w. I'm surprised with my appetite!

[@OceanDrive321]

I usually have almost 0 carbs. But today at 6pm I did a carb protein shake instead of dinner because I was already at 3500 calories. Is it possible that carbs triggered this random hunger, or do I have quick metabolism now?

[@jeffwebb-eb5hg]

This is the B. Gates protocol to mandate we eat crickets

[@Christinelsa]

I also saw that personal gardens emit 5x more damaging carbon than traditional farming/community gardens 😂😂 I’m so glad we have federal guidance on this, in case we had any doubt on what NOT to do 😂😂 Honestly, maybe I live in a bubble or I just see confirmation bias but i have lived all over the country, known a lot of people, and I have never known of anyone who actually believed shit like this. I’ve known people who have one veg meal per week or something, but otherwise meals are centered around a protein. But hey, if we can spread the low protein propaganda, we have to replace it with something (sugar) and then, ozempic for all - cha Ching!!

[@crys_tlyaw]

Multiplicity is the cloning movie. “I want pizza, Steve”

[@wild_child]

Thank you guys for another great episode of the show. Just watched a doctor and so called "health expert" on TV talking about all the health risks of meat and that grains are the way to go, for our health and the future of planet earth.. what a ton of BS... Unfortunately more and more people are falling into this trap... My life changed after renouncing grains almost entirely

[@melissaalexander1042]

1:09:20 every day I do things that involves leg(hips)&shoulder training, as I'm on an LU regimine with 2 impulse days, 2 strength days, and the remaining 3 will include rotational work (got a bent press PR today, 3rd try 😅) with 1-2 of those 3 days having cardio/conditioning. Legs&the thoracic area (primarily the shoulder girdle) I say are thee most important to (re)build&maintain

Check out the This American Life episode about the guy who cloned his pet bull. It ended in tragedy. The cloned pet only looks like the original, but they're not the same "person".

[@kingking-mo7tc]

Pet bull or pit bull

[@donnahalstead531]

I wish years ago someone had told me increase my protein.. all I’ve ever heard was cut cal, carbs or fat for fat loss … I thought I ate pretty good Amt until I actually counted grams… 2 eggs and bacon is like only 18g.. I guarantee u most women don’t even eat that.. my poor mom had osteoporosis and sarcopenia so bad and I couldn’t get her to eat more protein … it’s what repairs everything in our body not just building muscle

[@lisaconrad6673]

What would you replace your squat with because I cannot load weight on my neck due to a huge neck fusion

[@theironforce3000]

Excellent episode today, open dialog or definitely hitting all my preferred topics 😎✔️ What sal was proposing for future cities catered to the obese population, not to be using vehicles so they can walk more , etc. Is what the unholy WEF dubs "15 Minute City's" However, their aim is not coming from a general health and wellness aspect. What Adam mentioned that's happening in Saudi Arabia, it's called The Line . Basically an extremely enormous long building cutting through the desert. It's being dug out as we speak right now. there's aerial photos of it. Looks like a mini Grand Canyon. There's a mockup advertising commercial video floating around now. Pretty intense 😳 Basically it's an overgrown shopping mall meets a prison. Deff worth searching for.

[@hailtothe_rooster1572]

If I’m already supposed to retire at 65…. And I’ve still got a little under 30yrs to get there….. Adams logic says I need to work another 20 on top of that just because I’m healthy and able bodied? Don’t let the government get on to that idea. They’ll have free tax labor for even longer and that’s not good

[@dlansman]

Yall were talking about the plot of Altered Carbon lol

[@saucyful]

would you consider a TRT an intervention in the higher manifestation as you mentioned, or just an aide?
