• #Quah question #1 - How do you determine that you have spent enough time building muscle and will have something to reveal once you go into a deficit? Do you base it on time spent building or weight gain or something else? (1:02:04)

• #Quah question #2 - Can you reverse diet after a show without putting on insane amounts of body fat? (1:06:39)

• #Quah question #4 - I’ve tried for 2 years to build the inner part of my bicep and nothing seems to work. When my arms are down to their sides, the part of the bicep that rests against my body looks awful! I work out 4x a week, and could lose 8-10 lbs. so nothing drastic…. I hate that part of my arms and I cover them up even in this heat. HELP! I want to go sleeveless! (1:14:20)
