Thank you so much for doing the podcast! It is really positive and charging me with energy - very well done. Question: What is the best way to reach balance between the intensity of the training vs. risk of injury? When I train with high intensity and do exercises till failure, there is a risk that I will not notice that my form is not good. It may lead to injury.Knee question?Should you trust steroid-using trainers? Are we all one body type? (e.g endomorph, mesomorph) or is it not true? You mention not to workout when you’re sick if it’s anything below the neck, how about if you have a cough? I got a flu last week and now I’m good but the cough hasn’t gone away.
