Like if I am squatting 90 lbs let’s say, by the end of the year, or 6 months - what should I progress to? Would love to see if you guys already talked about this! (30:15) - Question 2- I heard doing HIIT the day after leg day is bad. Theory was it will take from your gains. Truth or fiction? Can I do Low intensity/steady state? (34:35) - Question 3- Do y’all still take questions for Motivation Monday? If so, I’m going to join a gym to have access to more equipment (my home gym is limited). My family and friends don’t workout, but I want to have a gym partner to workout with. How do you approach people in the gym to become friends and possibly workout together? I don’t mind talking to people I don’t know but I also don’t want to bother them at the gym. Any advice would be great thanks 😊 Thanks for listening! We genuinely appreciate every single one of you listening. ➢Join our exclusive FREE facebook group: https://bit.ly/3snmT26 ➢Follow us on instagram @colossusfit ➢Apply to get your Polished Physique: https://colossusfitness.com/
