Show Notes
Chris and I cover the myth behind the repeated phrase that "muscles grow from microtears" or "microtrauma" and that "muscles are torn down and built back bigger. We also cover why satellite cell proliferation an increase in myonuclear domain do not mean more hypertrophy or even an increase in muscle growth potential.

Zan Zupanic and I discuss how MYOPS works, what they can see, what they can't see, and how all of this relates to good training practices.
Nick Ronick of BFR FAME joints us for this one where we cover how BFR works, what it's best used for, what its limitations are, and why you need heavy loads for joints.
Chris and I discuss the difference in "science" and "evidence based" and why they aren't the same. And why "evidence based" is a lower standard to use than true science. We also spend plenty of time cooking our "detractors".
