In this episode, I answer listener questions on Powerlifting vs. Bodybuilding, Pre Workout Nutrition, and Functional Strength Training.  New Sponsorship: Axe and Sledge Supplements  Discount Code "HUNT" https://axeandsledge.com/   Questions on the show: Q1: Hey Kyle, I have been lifting weights pretty seriously for the past 5 years and think I want to put a date on the calendar as you would say, and compete. The problem I have is I’m more of a “powerbuilder” so I’m not sure if I want to compete in powerlifting or bodybuilding. What advice do you have for me? Q2: My question is about pre-workout nutrition. Due to my schedule, I have to train first thing in the morning before I go to work. I struggle waking up early so I usually don’t have time to eat before I go to the gym. I know you train early in the morning, is there anything I can do to make my morning workouts suck less? Q3: Here is a question that might be good for the podcast, what are some exercises that you would consider “functional” for everyday strength? As I get older, I want my training to be more beneficial than just improving how I look.   Hire Kyle as your coach: http://www.kylehuntfitness.com/services/   Connect with Kyle:  http://www.kylehuntfitness.com/ Instagram: @huntfitness YouTube: @HuntFitnessTV   Absolute Progress 2.0: https://kylehuntfitness.shop/collections/programs/products/absolute-progress   Shop training programs including - Powerlifting, Powerbuilding, Bench, etc. https://kylehuntfitness.shop/collections/programs   Bodybuilding For Beginners on Amazon: https://amzn.to/3etmDbp   Get 10% OFF Axe and Sledge Supplements DISCOUNT CODE: “HUNT” at https://axeandsledge.com/
