    Mind Pump: Raw Fitness Truth – Sal Di Stefano, Adam Schafer, Justin Andrews, Doug Egge

    MindPump exposes the RAW TRUTH about health, fitness, nutrition and more… Hosts Sal Di Stefano, Adam Schafer & Justin Andrews pull back the curtain on the mythology, snake oil and pseudo-science that pervades the fitness industry and present science-backed solutions that result in increased muscular development and performance while simultaneously emphasizing health. No fitness institution or fitness “truth” is safe from their quick wit and over 40 years of combined experience in the fitness industry. Produced by Doug Egge. Find Mind Pump and the Mind Pump hosts on Instragram @mindpumpmedia, @mindpumpsal, @mindpumpadam, @mindpumpjustin & @mindpumpdoug and at mindpumppodcast.com.

    2223: The Risk of Muscle Loss From Overtraining, the Benefit of Cycling Calories for Fat Loss, Tips for Dealing With ADHD & More Dec 08, 2023

    In this episode of Quah (Q & A), Sal, Adam & Justin answer four Pump Head questions drawn from last Sunday’s Quah post on the @mindpumpmedia Instagram page.

    • Mind Pump Fit Tip: Meat is one of the MOST nutrient-dense foods! (2:04)

    • #Quah question #1 - Can overtraining and under-recovery cause you to lose muscle and gain body fat? (58:02)

    • #Quah question #2 - What’s the difference between cycling calories (high days versus low days) as opposed to taking the average and eating that amount every day? (1:02:01)

    • #Quah question #3 - As a coach my philosophy is selling health first, then fat loss, and muscle gain come as a byproduct as you guys talk about. I’m having a hard time marketing this online, as selling health isn’t sexy in comparison to “Lose 20 pounds in 90 days.” Do you have any advice on how to sell or market a health-first approach to an audience? (1:05:58)

    • #Quah question #4 - Sal and Adam have mentioned having ADHD and how it's been both a struggle and an asset in their business life. Do you have any strategies or tips for someone dealing with it in navigating relationships and business projects? (1:11:27)

    • Shout out to the Mind Pump Personal Trainer 3-Day Training. (52:57)

    • #ListenerLive question #1 - In your opinion, does bulking on low testosterone make sense or since my body will find it harder to build muscle most of the excess calories will be stored as fat? (55:17)

    • #ListenerLive question #2 - Is the number of calories I’m taking in to gain weight but still lose weight normal? (1:06:32)

    • #ListenerLive question #3 - Regarding your programming, I have noticed a trend I can't make sense of while running through the MAPS programs. During the heavy weight/low rep phases, I seem to peak during week 2 of the phase (for example Phase 1 Week 2 of MAPS Anabolic). I will go into week 3 of the Phase expecting to be able to add weight but I can't even hit the previous week's weight. Is this to be expected? (1:15:45)

    • #ListenerLive question #4 – Any advice on what program I should run next? Currently, my goals are to look the best I can on my 39th birthday and for our family’s spring break trip to the Dominican Republic. (1:33:44)

    2188: How to Properly Train to Failure, When to Eat Post Workout, the Qualities That Position a Trainer for Success & More Oct 20, 2023

    In this episode of Quah (Q & A), Sal, Adam & Justin answer four Pump Head questions drawn from last Sunday’s Quah post on the @mindpumpmedia Instagram page.

    • Mind Pump Fit Tip: Take care of yourself to better take care of others. (2:01)

    • How the cooling pad from Eight Sleep has impacted Adam’s life. (21:17)

    • The Strawberry Walnut & Cream Mind Pump collab with Kreatures of Habit is a HIT! (58:41)

    • Shout out to David Meltzer. (1:02:07)

    • #Quah question #1 - How do I train to failure for the most muscle building when I train alone? (1:03:08)

    • #Quah question #2 - Every time my family sees a video of me squatting, they say “Watch your knees,” because the women in my family have a history of arthritis & bursitis. Are there any special considerations I should consider while lifting with that history? (1:10:24)

    • #Quah question #3 - You talk about the detriment of eating immediately post-workout as your body is still in sympathetic drive. However, I’ve heard from other sources that this is precisely why you “should” eat post-workout as it gets the body into parasympathetic drive quickly. So, I’m confused, should I eat or not eat immediately after my workout? (1:18:44)

    • #Quah question #4 - If you owned a gym today, what requirements would a brand new trainer need to meet before they could train someone in your gym? (1:22:47)

    • #ListenerLive question #1 - My goal is just to be healthy and have a healthy body percentage for my age. I started the year with a proper cut and brought my calories down to 2000 from 2400. I recently had a DEXA scan that told me that I was 30% body fat. How can I get to my goal of being at a healthy body fat percentage and am I going about it the right way? (50:03)

    • #ListenerLive question #2 – Is it ok or is it beneficial to adapt the MAPS 15 Minutes programming to other MAPS programs? (1:05:26)

    • #ListenerLive question #3 – With my current programming my back is still sore from deadlifts by the time I get to squat day. There have been multiple times now that I go for my first warm up set of back squats and my back immediately locks up and is in insane pain which cuts my workout short because I can’t continue doing squats or any hip hinge movements. Is there something else I could be doing differently to avoid experiencing this so often? (1:12:59)

    • #ListenerLive question #4 – What type of workouts should I try to avoid or focus on when dealing with sciatica pain? (1:19:06)

    In this episode of Quah (Q & A), Sal, Adam & Justin answer four Pump Head questions drawn from last Sunday’s Quah post on the @mindpumpmedia Instagram page.

    • Mind Pump Fit Tip: Find a pre-workout that MAXIMIZES usable focus! Everything else is pretty much a waste. (2:09)

    • Kids have no filter. (9:54)

    • Justin’s latest ‘Gymnastics Dad’ trip to Arizona. (13:03)

    • Adam Recommends Silo on Apple+. (26:27)

    • Fun Facts with Justin: The Star-Nosed Mole. (47:33)

    • Shout out to Tom Haviland. (49:52)

    • #Quah question #1 - When doing dumbbell pullovers in Phase 3 of Anabolic, the video shows the guy doing them lying lengthwise on the bench. I saw on Adam’s YouTube video with Dr. Jordan Shallow that they are lying across the bench. Is there a difference, or a better way when doing this exercise? (51:36)

    • #Quah question #2 - If you had to build a personal training business from scratch, how would you do it? (55:40)

    • #Quah question #3 - What are your opinions on Ashwaganda? I know most supplements are a scam, but I’ve read a few clinical trials on it that seem to indicate strong positive effects. (1:05:32)

    • 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)
