Questions on the show:

Q1: Hey Kyle, I have been lifting weights pretty seriously for the past 5 years and think I want to put a date on the calendar as you would say, and compete. The problem I have is I’m more of a “powerbuilder” so I’m not sure if I want to compete in powerlifting or bodybuilding. What advice do you have for me?

Q2: My question is about pre-workout nutrition. Due to my schedule, I have to train first thing in the morning before I go to work. I struggle waking up early so I usually don’t have time to eat before I go to the gym. I know you train early in the morning, is there anything I can do to make my morning workouts suck less?

Q3: Here is a question that might be good for the podcast, what are some exercises that you would consider “functional” for everyday strength? As I get older, I want my training to be more beneficial than just improving how I look.

Sit back, relax, and enjoy!
