The Power of Direct Engagement in Building a Fitness Business

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: When it comes to pursuing your health & fitness goals, there is ONLY the right and wrong way. There is yes and no, NOT fast and slow. (1:41)

• #Quah question #2 - Is age-related muscle loss expected due to hormones or is it because most people become lazy and sedentary as they age? I don’t want to be dependent on TRT or stuff like that as I age. (1:00:04)

• #Quah question #3 - Can you do a segment on recovery management strategies? What factors, indicators, or metrics can be used to measure recovery, and what mitigations can be applied to reduce injury risk and promote consistent workout performance? (1:10:13)
