Weekend warrior

Hello, I struggle with keeping my shit together on Saturdays and Sundays. I am like all in with my fitness and healthy eating on the days I have work. During the week I meal prep and get good exercise, averaging about 20,000+ steps a day and staying within my calorie goals. Once I am out of work and have the next few days off something in my mind set switches. My goal is to let myself have some freedom, but not drink a whole 18 pack of beer and a freaking pound of pasta in one sitting. Maybe I am restricting myself too hard during the week? I am asking for some advice to keep myself on track during the off days. Thanks, I love the podcast ✌🏼

Pear shaped body

I have thick thighs and overall a more bulky lower body. How do I fix that? Ive heard that high reps low weight is better as it doesn’t bulk you up. Is that true? From my research there’s so much conflicting information out there about high reps low weight training

Stalling progress

How to identify the reason of the stalling progress? (Diet/workout/recovery, etc) Can you share some tips?

RPE for compounds

In the 12-week Full Body program, I noticed the RPE for compounds is lower than the # of reps listed. Does this mean I should pick a weight I know I can do at least the exact RPE? For example, the barbell bench press shows 4x4 which an RPE of 7. To me, this means I would pick a weight I know I can still do 7 reps of with no more in the tank.

methylated multivitamins

On a recent Joe Rogan episode with Gary Brecka they discussed methylated multivitamins and the process of methylation in the human body. I just think it would be an interesting topic for an episode as I would love your input. Sometimes things that sound good are often well marketed (AG1) . Thanks!
