    #Quah question #1 – Should you add more weight or do more reps? (59:06)

    #Quah question #2 – I've heard you guys say protein is hit or miss daily, it's not a weekly average. Why? If I hit 150G one day, 250G the next, for an average of 200G per day, why does that not work? (1:04:21)

    #Quah question #3 – I keep seeing that taking Baking Soda before you work out will give you bigger pumps. Is there any truth to this? I'm worried instead of getting bigger pumps it's going to be bigger dumps. (1:06:25)

    #Quah question #4 – Any tips for hitting all heads of the triceps when behind-the-neck movements cause elbow pain/discomfort? I don't think it's a mobility issue, since the pain is at the flexion point, not when having hands behind the head. (1:10:31)
