Q&A: Cravings, strength vs hypertrophy, machines vs free weights, and more - Ep. 93

Fit to Transform Podcast with Coach Nikias

19-04-2024 • 34 mins

Today I’m answering these questions:


  1. How do you deal with cravings?
  2. How important is it to hit fibre and protein targets daily VS weekly?
  3. How do you deal with an exercise you really hate doing?
  4. What’s the difference between training for strength vs hypertrophy?
  5. Machines vs free weights: which is better?
  6. Can two people with the same height, weight, and body composition burn different amounts of calories?
