#Quah question #1 – My quads are always sore after squats, lunges, etc. and then stay sore for days later. I warm up and stretch after. I try to progress but not go too heavy when my muscles ache. What else can I do to alleviate that pain? (1:04:19)
-

#Quah question #4 – I'd love to hear about smart ways to program heavy circuits. Not talking about Orangetheory style circuits, but taking 3-4 lifts, using different muscle groups, and resting maybe 30 seconds between lifts, which would give several minutes before repeating any one lift. Can this be done in a way to gain strength and build muscle? (1:11:06)
