'Jason Blaha Fitness Q&A\'s July 3rd, 2016'

Posted Dec 7, 2021

'Weekly Fitness Question and Answer Session:  0:09 Any risks in squatting and deadlifting on a surface that isn\'t completely solid, such as rubber gym flooring? Could this create possible instability issues like when squating in running shows with a cushioned sole? 2:23 Hey Jason, we\'ve all heard that there are 3,500 calories in a pound of fat. How many calories are in a pound of muscle? How much protein is stored in a pound of muscle? Thanks! 5:25 What are your thoughts of a late novice using exclusively the close-grip on the bench press. I find that I can set myself up tighter and it seems to improve my OHP and dips as well. Keep up the good work, Jason! 7:16 Hey Jason! It sucks that you aren\'t powerlifting anymore, but I support your decision and get where you\'re coming from. I see that you\'re deadlifting heavy multiple times a week. What are you doing squat wise to drive your deads up? 9:52 I\'m currently cutting and though my bench and squat have gone down a bit, I feel as if I\'m getting stronger on exercises that are less influenced by leverage change. Though I feel a bit more tired and not as able to grind out higher volume sessions, I\'m still training hard and feel great.  Is the whole \"cutting = weak workouts\" mentality just that- a mentality and not always a reality? 12:50 Im really into soccer and have been training like crazy for strength and technique. However, im wondering how my teammates who are a little smaller than me are on the same level of strength. And are there any tips you recommend for growing stronger but not necessarily bigger? 14:37 Recent studies are showing that the BMI associated with the lowest mortality rate is ~27 putting it in the \"overweight\" category. If one was looking to be as healthy as possible, should they aim to be slightly overweight as long as they continue to lift, and do cardio? (Health  looks) 17:53 Jason I\'ve been eating fat free refried beans lately on my cut because you recommend them a long ass time ago and they have great macros. My only concern is that they have a high sodium content. Can you enlighten us on high sodium intake and give any recommendations/guidelines? Thanks long time fan 19:33 Jason, what could be a possible reason my IT band hurts after squatting? I\'ve tried with and without OLY shoes and still the same. Thanks for the content! (No knee wraps or sleeves used) 21:12 Whats your thougth on competitor that bend so much that they bench with a 2inch ROM and still are within the rules? It may be withtin the rules but it just feels wrongs... 24:37 Will your stance on gun-free areas prevent you from ever going on vactions in or outside the US by airplane, considering airports and airplanes are gun-free zones? ►Subscribe to Jason Blaha Fitness Here!  http://www.youtube.com/user/juggernautfitnesstv?sub_confirmation=1  ►Subscribe to Jason Blaha\'s Firearm Channel Here: http://www.youtube.com/channel/UClvrYLBNFSyuRa0s0qOujqQ?sub_confirmation=1'
