Eg you must train iliac, lumbar and thoracic lat EACH within the 2-3 day period. 00:23:33 - Which region of the traps do you think is most responsible for a more muscular look and do you think it needs to be trained directly, or will indirect work (such as rows) suffice?00:28:13 - If I wanted to optimize muscle building, how much running or cycling is too much and may interfere with lower body hypertrophy? 00:33:52 - Are you still updating the Evolved blog? 00:35:22 - Do you think the hip abduction machine is the best way to train that function for hypertrophy? 00:37:49 - Do you still believe that in a deficit it is better to just do steps instead of proper cardio?00:43:37 - Should you do unilateral exercises whenever possible if you have time? Any benefit to doing bilateral?00:48:48 - 4 vs 5 days of training per week when weekly volume is equated?

LIke narrow slant board? Cyclist squat?00:55:47 - Can I do a trial of TRT just for a few weeks to see if I notice anything positive without ruining my natural production long term? 00:58:47 - What would be the minimum effective dose of cardio volume to not go backwards? Never been a big cardio guy, so just trying to be healthy. 01:00:55 - Do you have any direct experience or know anyone with experience with the Freak Athlete extension for quad/ham curl? If so, worth considering for the home gym? 01:02:54 - If you are natural, what would be the highest frequency of legs/glutes that you would do in a week (to recover adequately) 01:05:29 - How has the alternating lower/upper 3x/week been working for you? 01:06:46 - Is there such a thing as true weight loss resistance if tracking accurately? 01:10:54 - What’s the bare min for daily fat intake while cutting? Different for lifestyle vs competitor? 01:15:10 - Is there any benefit to finding and staying at the top end of the maintenance range? 01:16:44 - Stress, sleep and water.
