For those that don't know, the "DrunkCasts" are podcasts where I answer your questions about training, nutrition, and life — while slightly buzzed. By the end of the episodes, often more than just slightly buzzed. But that's what makes them so fun (for both of us). Sometimes I'll have guests on to help me out, but this is a solo episode. Nonetheless, I answer some amazing questions by you guys and I hope you enjoy!
QUESTION QTIMESTAMPS:
(1:38) You’re told you have 7 days to live. What do you do?
(7:07) I've been cutting for the last year and have been pretty happy with the results. I think I am ready to start transitioning to bulking, but I am nervous about putting on/regaining too much fat as I increase calories.
(14:41) What is something totally not necessary that you love to splurge on?
(22:15) How to get support from your partner when they have no interest in activities or sports? They think you are using activities to get away?
(29:02) How long does it take for an individual’s BF set-point to change? And once it does change, is eating maintenance calories enough to maintain it?
(35:33) Most effective supplement for sleep?
(40:19) Hi Matt! I’ve heard over and over that weight loss comes down to simple math: burn more calories than you take in and you’ll lose weight but does that apply to fat loss as well? I’ve lost some fat but the math doesn’t add up. I should have lost more. What gives? A trainer at my gym said hormones play a role, is that accurate?
(49:26) How do you determine the amount of weight you should be lifting when you aim at maintaining muscle during a calorie deficit? I'm guessing it doesn't have to be the same as when you lift to gain, but I have no clue what one should go for.
(52:47) We have all seen discussions regarding fasted cardio. But what about fasted weight lifting? Or better, what is the "optimal" way to lift weights in the morning.
(57:00) What is the best way of staying lean all year round?
(58:44) On a full body day, let's say you have chest, back, legs..and you wanna add some tri and bi too, for more volume. What is a more correct sequence: chest, tri, back, bi, rest or chest, back, tri, bi? Much appreciated :)
(1:00:57) If you aren’t hungry after the gym, but it’s dinner time, should you eat or wait?
(1:04:39) Should you weight lift fasted if you still feel full from the night before?
(1:09:04) How do you schedule weightlifting 5x per week and Muay Thai 2-3x per week
(1:11:11) You have to give one up for the rest of your life — wine or dessert? Good luck.
(1:13:20) Do you/did you struggle with imposter syndrome and how did you overcome it?
(1:17:22) Biggest mistake new lifters make? And intermediates and veterans?
