Since I am seeing the results and liking it."What tools to use to count macros?If your main goal is weight loss and you’re at the beginning of your journey (3 months in), how imperative is it to accurately and meticulously log the weight of each exercise, rep range, etc?

In this weekly live Q&A in Tom The Trainer’s Tribe, I answered questions for the members and some of my clients regarding...
How important is getting your heart rate up to a certain level while weight training? Or while doing cardio?How do you handle those days when you just don’t have it in you? Reduce sets, reduce weight, reduce reps, or consider the main compounds enough success and call it a day?Upper hams. How can I best activate the top halves? "No matter what hamstring-focused exercises I perform, I seem to feel them lower towards the knees, and if I’m lucky around the middle". To creatine or not to creatine?Old school vs. New school way of training. If you listen to all those new Instagram “stars”, even Arnold or Ronnie did it wrong: Wrong pull downs, wrong lateral raises, etc. Everything needs to be slow and very controlled. But looking at those guys, they did it right… Didn't they?Split Squatting. How to keep the knee of your working leg from bowing in or out?Elbow flare on shoulder press. "When I try to bring a barbell to my chest, my rotator cuff feels it, and I presume I’m internally rotating despite trying to keep my chest proud. Do I need to actually hit my chest and get a form check, or can I stop short if I feel that I’m achieving a solid stretch prior to my chest?Thoughts on Mike Mentzer Method.Join Tom The Trainer’s Tribe and message me the word “coaching” on Instagram at Tomthetrainerfitness or Facebook at Tom Trainer Mouland!

In this weekly live Q&A in Tom The Trainer’s Tribe, I answered questions for the members and some of my clients regarding...
Growing a business as an online trainer in an environment that pressures you to either be on PEDs or perpetually lean.Reducing weights every month for a week to give muscles and ligaments time to build and heal. Is it true?I can’t squat low nor do a decent sumo squat without my femur feeling “stuck” in my hip joint (like the femur has no more motion to give in the acetabulum, or like it needs to pop). How can I safely correct this and improve ROM?Transitioning from weight loss to a maintenance build phase. How to get out of the mindset of needing and wanting to drop weight after such a long journey?Once someone has added all the muscle they intend to, what is a good approach to simply maintaining that muscle mass if they want to stay relatively lean all year round? Can you just lift the same weights every week in the gym, or do you have to keep providing some type of new stimulus?I hate cardio so I have been doing it before weight training. Does it matter whether you do them before or after weight training?What bad habit(s) - physical, nutritional, and emotional - have you witnessed THE MOST that you wish people would just break?Why after three days of reduced carbs does my strength drastically reduce?How should older people work out for the best results? I know as we get older we lose muscle mass quicker so if in good enough shape, should we lift heavier weights to maintain muscle mass?Join Tom The Trainer’s Tribe and message me the word “coaching” on Instagram at Tomthetrainerfitness or Facebook at Tom Trainer Mouland!

Top 3 exercises for those boulder shoulders.Listening to music while working out vs. not?If you’re dealing with issues such as bad knees, or issues in your lower back, hips, or shoulders — should you perform rehabilitation exercises before your workout, or simply perform a few rehab maneuvers before the 1st working set that involves the body part in question?Is there an “ideal time” to switch from bulk to cut or vice versa? (i.e. watching for trends in weight fluctuations, cues from the body, etc.)When I try to bulk up I tend to notice certain parts of my body do not get bigger (forearms, calves, and wrists).

Here's the link to my FREE Masterclass called “The 6 Secret Fat Loss Strategies to Get and Stay Shredded Without Sacrificing Your Summer Socials!”
It’s the same tricks I’ve taught my most successful clients. Make sure to check it out and let me know your thoughts!
https://tomthetrainerfitness.com/summersecretsreplay
In this weekly live Q&A in Tom The Trainer’s Tribe, I answered questions for the members and some of my clients regarding...
Since a cut is usually about maintaining existing muscle while losing fat, how much can we lower the intensity of our workouts before the body starts sending signals that it doesn’t “need” the muscle anymore? Assuming things like recovery are in check and the person isn’t in an extreme deficit and is consuming the proper protein amount.When building muscle concerning “how many reps”, the general advice is to take sets near failure. Does it matter whether or not volume is equated? Does more strength equal maximal muscle growth?What are the most common misconceptions new clients have that you must educate them on before they become successful in their efforts?Pineapple as a carb source. Are there any cons to using canned versus fresh?How does footwear affect your lift?Is there such a thing as “too much cardio”?How do you tell the difference between doms, injury, and random aches and pains that pop up for no reason after exercise?What is suggested for rep ranges based on muscle groups? Such as for the bigger lifts like Squats, Bench, Deadlifts and such it's said to do 5 sets of 5-8 but with smaller lifts like curls, is doing 15-20 more beneficial? Is this even true or is there some truth to this?Proper technique hinging hips for things like Rdls, Upright Rows, etc. Am I using my back too much?Join Tom The Trainer’s Tribe and message me the word “coaching” on Instagram at Tomthetrainerfitness or Facebook at Tom Trainer Mouland!
