#Quah question #1 – If my workouts are good and I’m still progressively overloading and getting stronger, does that mean I’m not truly in a caloric deficit? (1:00:25)
#Quah question #2 – What is a good whole-food snack to eat before an early morning workout? I typically eat breakfast after but have been getting nauseous working out fasted. (1:03:14)
#Quah question #3 – If you’re not hitting your protein goal will creatine still help you build muscle? (1:05:15)
#Quah question #4 – Getting into powerlifting to eventually compete in the raw/classic division, should I already start lifting with knee sleeves, a belt and wrist straps or should I wait until I have some arbitrary weight before starting to use them? (1:07:17)
