#Quah question #1 – How do you gauge appropriate workout intensity? I never get sore, but I have a feeling my workouts are too intense as I have overtraining symptoms. How do you gauge the appropriate dose because I’m scared of doing too little? (58:01)
-
#Quah question #2 – As a 30+ year old female, how realistic is it to achieve and maintain a low enough body fat percentage that showcases abs, leg muscles, defined shoulders, and maintain a healthy hormone profile? Is this possible to maintain without tracking? (1:04:46)

#Quah question #4 – What are your thoughts on pausing the use of a GLP-1 for a couple of weeks to do a mini-bulk and then get back on the GLP-1? My calories have dropped low, and I am wondering if interrupting the large deficit with a little bulk would keep me on the right track. (1:15:00)
