Q&A

• What are the key differences in muscle activation between cable and dumbbell flyes?

  It may improve the gut microbiome, leading to improvements in glucose tolerance and fat oxidation.

• How can I effectively coach clients on GLP-1 peptides when I only see them every few months?

  Focus on 1-2 key actions they can consistently perform and create an FAQ document with resources.

• What's the best way to time protein intake for athletes training for several hours?

  Total daily protein intake is paramount. Consume protein before, during, and after prolonged training.

• How do I know if I'm eating too few calories while on GLP-1?

  Monitor strength levels and energy. Aim for at least 1500 calories daily. Reverse diet when you plateau.

• How can I address pelvic asymmetry (torsion)?

  Work with a professional who can identify muscle imbalances and guide corrective exercises.
