You Don’t Need “Optimal.” You Need Results.

In this episode, I take a hard look at the rise—and the backlash—of so-called science-based lifting. You’ve seen the memes: skinny, nervous-looking guys quoting studies while correcting big, seasoned lifters. Well, I break down how this trend started, why it caught fire, and why it’s finally facing the criticism it deserves.

💥 You’ll learn:

• Why science-based training became popular (and who it really served)

• The difference between what’s optimal and what’s practical

• Why traditional training methods still work

• How to build a system that fits your busy, productive lifestyle—and gets real results
