This week's questions;
1) For the past few months, I've been trying to improve my nutrition, but sometimes it feels really overwhelming. Looks like there are so many things to take into consideration. What are the fundamental basics I should know?
2) Long question short: David Sinclair's podcast recommends very low protein and Gabrielle Lyons's podcast is high protein. So which is it?
3) I want to focus on strength and stability but also want to get fit in zone 2 training. I only have 30 minutes spare 5 days a week; what training structure do you recommend?
4) Is walking necessary for weight loss? Or can I just focus on strength training and food?
5) All of my advertising is hydration sachets. Why are they so expensive, and do they even do anything?
6) Is protein powder bad for kids?
