  • #Quah question #2 – How do you stay motivated in a program when there is an exercise that you hate doing? For example, I despise Turkish Get Ups to the point that I don't even want to do MAPS 15 Minutes. (1:01:40)

  • #Quah question #3 – I've been told collagen is an incomplete protein. Does your body utilize it the same way it would whey or pea protein? Does it count towards your macros the same as a “whole” protein? (1:05:03)
