2243: Front Squats Vs. Zercher Squats, Straight Sets Vs. Circuits, Ways to Increase Your Appetite & More

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: The two MOST important things to consider when picking a protein powder. (2:22)

• New product alert from Paleo Valley, Beef Tallow. (14:29)

• The guys journey with fast food. (16:45)

• Justin’s ‘incredible’ DMV experience. (29:31)

• Fun Facts with Justin: Dogs trained to drive. (31:28)

• Mind Pump’s holiday traditions. (33:36)

• Shout out to Mind Pump’s 3-Day Trainer Series! (53:58)

• #Quah question #1 - Do you think it would be detrimental for someone just to do Zercher squats and not to front squats? What are the unique benefits of each? (55:17)

• #Quah question #2 - Bulking is a chore. Is there any natural means of increasing appetite? (1:00:07)

• #Quah question #3 - You guys advocate for more “straight sets with proper rest” which I much prefer myself, but it seems difficult to achieve when it comes to training clients for only an hour. When you trained, did you stick to straight sets or more of a 1. ABC, 2. ABC circuit style? (1:05:18)

• #Quah question #4 - What are your thoughts on the best gut health supplements? (1:11:42)
