Science-Based Lifting Has Gone Too Far (Here's Why) | J3U Podcast Ep. 232

Has science-based bodybuilding started creating more myths than answers?

In this episode, we break down five popular "science-based" training concepts that may be doing more harm than good when taken to extremes. We discuss training to failure, optimal exercise selection, volume, frequency, and stretch-mediated hypertrophy and explain what the research actually says versus how it's often interpreted online. If you're a coach, competitor, or serious bodybuilder, this conversation will help you separate evidence from internet hype.
