Big Q&A session this week! I answer questions regarding relationships and getting your partner into training and eating right. I talk about why I 'hold my clients back' in terms of weight selection and why building strength is 10x more important than testing strength. Hope you guys enjoy this one! I had a great time answering these questions.
