Some Questions Answered

Some Eric Bader
I liked your suggestion about doing triple drops, I had used them years ago and forgot how effective they really are. If I’m looking to really up the total tonnage to grow, would that be the best method to do so?

Steve Cybulski
I have what you’d call a skinny-fat body. Is there anything I can do to change that, or am I stuck with these genetics forever?

Larry Dunn
What’s your take on Shilajit?

Jerry Byers
I just can’t lose fat and not sure what I’m doing wrong. My training is spot on with both weights and cardio and I’m sticking to my diet. Any idea what it might be?

Mike Yanelli
Listened to the show last week and the being prepared tip sort of resonated. Let’s say I’m going to put together a 30 day survival kit, and I want to lose as little muscle as possible during that time. What stuff should I get? What supplements would you bring with you??
