Josh quote: "Be always at war with your vices, at peace with your neighbours, and let each year find you a better person." - Benjamin Franklin

Kyle quote: “The grind doesn't know what day of the week it is. Time doesn’t take a day off” & “Sometimes you need to fall off the wagon to get back again”

1. How do you deal with negativity about change in your fitness journey?
2. How do we know we recover properly? How did you know that you're program was too much?
3. If you’re doing 10 reps and need a spot on some, at what point do you lower the weight? If you need help on the last 2, or last 3,or last 4? When is it better to do a lower weight with more reps or higher weight with some help?
4. How much water should you be drinking?
5. I love your podcast and the content y’all put out and I wish I could leave you a review but I have spotify. Every morning when I come into work I’ll binge probably 10 episodes!
6. I wanted to ask you a question regarding supplements. I wanted to know if you think there is an optimal time of day to take supplements. I regularly take multi vitamins, CLA, green tea extract, omega 3s first thing in the morning. I've talked to other people and I notice some would take supplements during a meal in the middle of the day or a different time of day. I've always taken it in the morning so I don't forget. Am I missing out on any benefits by not taking it at a different time?
