In this episode of Quah (Q & A), Sal, Adam & Justin answer Pump Head questions about the benefit of doing extra reps on a smaller, less developed body part, relying on compound lifts like deadlifts and squats to work the core, whether the front squat is actually more beneficial than the back squat, and the hardest obstacles they had to overcome during their fitness journey.

(42:45) #Quah question #1 – If my left bicep and shoulder are bigger than my right bicep and shoulder, does that mean I should be doing extra reps on the smaller, less developed arm? (47:21) #Quah question #2 – Do I have to hit abs directly for every full-body workout or can I rely on compound lifts like deadlifts and squats to work the core? And just work out my abs directly once a week? (54:26) #Quah question #3 - The front squat is now often regarded as more functional than the back squat. It doesn’t allow for as great of overload, but allows for a greater range of motion and is more quad focused, core and upper back demanding. Plus, if you deadlift the hamstring and glute emphasis is already there. Should the front squat take the pedestal from the back squat? (57:53) #Quah question #4 – What were the hardest obstacles you had to overcome during your fitness journey? (1:03:11)Related Links/Products Mentioned
