Does protein before bed impact your sleep? How do you prevent muscle breakdown if you can only train fasted in the morning before breakfast?
Will training 5 days per week give better results than 4 days per week? Are gluten allergies and intolerance real, or just another health fad?
How long can someone use the program in Bigger Leaner Stronger and still make progress?
All of that and more in this Q&A podcast.
Over on Instagram, I’ve started doing weekly Q&As in the stories, and it occurred to me that many podcast listeners might enjoy hearing these questions and my short answers. So, instead of talking about one thing in an episode, I’m going to cover a variety of questions. And keep in mind some of these questions are just for fun. :)
So if you want to ask me questions in my Instagram stories, follow me on Instagram (@muscleforlifefitness), and if I answer your question there, it might just make it onto an episode of the podcast!
If you like this type of episode, let me know. Send me an email (mike@muscleforlife.com) or direct message me on Instagram. And if you don’t like it, let me know that too or how you think it could be better.
