Should you trust someone because they have a PhD?
Real Doctor, Dr. Pak (@dr__pak) is on to defend science and all her glory. I challenge the quality of “science-based” content, and the use of science as a marketing hype by “bad actors”.
What’s the difference between a sports scientist and an exercise scientist, and how well do the understand the foundational science for the field or training (anatomy, biomechanics, physics etc).
As a bonus we also discussed his recent publication “Optimizing Resistance Training Technique to Maximize Muscle Hypertrophy: A Narrative Review“. with Dr Milo Wolf, Max Coleman, Ryan Burke, Alec Piñero, Jeff Nippard, and Brad J. Schoenfeld,

After taking our training analysis quiz, you’ll have a long-term plan constructed for you. Your plan will consist of several Phases. Each Phase will present you with a few suggested programs to pick from. Each time you complete a program, you’ll move on to the next Phase and a new set of programs to select from.
This allows flexibility in the split and type of program you can choose, while we strategically periodize the stimulus you’re getting to keep making consistent progress without neglecting any weak links.
For example, a long-term plan with the goal of muscle gain will still occasionally include systemic conditioning or dedicated local metabolic work to keep your recovery capacity high (so you can grow and perform better during your hypertrophy-focused programs).
