Hi Tuan, I noticed you mentioned that you do higher reps for better shape. Its seems to be a highly debated topic. I was always lead to believe that a muscle can only increase in size and the way to make it look better was to strip away the fat layer with diet and cardio. What is your opinion on this topic?

[roughneckasian]

@benfoley83 All I can say is that many factors play a role in building the calfs. I use both high and low reps, different speeds, tempos and do many different exercises. Providing the right amount of nutrition so your body can build muscle is also a factor. Best thing to do is measure your calfs, put them through a full program and see if the program you used helped them in any way, shape, size or strength. Trail and error, figure out what works best for you

Excellent video -- we've gotta combat the epidemic of Chicken Legs. If you don't put time into the calves, eventually they look disproportionately small and you've got to work even harder to catch them up.

Sup Tuan? We followers would benefit from better audio in your vids. Look into getting a shotgun mic that u can attach to your cam or get a wireless lavaliere mic. also cut down on the posing vids. These are not as helpful as your showing us how to work out videos. not gonna lie im trying to have a body like u Thanks!

@ilthemsc white rice has like 48 g carbs per 1/4 cup

brown rice has 38 carbs per 1/4

If it fits into your macros though, your good

[ilthemsc]

@bebIessed The issue is, then why do people eat brown rice over white rice (among other things)? If they have similar number of calories, why does choosing foods that do not cause quick insulin release matter?

@ilthemsc calories calories calories. determine your bmr and adjust accordingly

Hey Tuan, do you have a general type of diet you go through when you're preparing for upcoming shows (dropping massive body fat)? Low carb, high protein, low fat, high calorie, etc, etc. I'm sure there might be a mix to it, but is there a common idea behind the dieting?

@JSG949 Its a myth bro, just like the one that lots of ab exercises will magically reduce fat around the midsection. Just google it or read any creditable fitness book and you will see what I mean

@benfoley83 lifting weights WILL drastically alter their feminine shape though
