Why You Absolutely Should Be Pissed about Misinformation in Fitness

Peruse the food entry screenshots. Same company. Same program. Same food. Same brand. 100% conflicting info. Is it 1 patty or 2? Serving size matters PRECISELY. This is why even pretty good food planning and tracking can fail. Entries are not entirely reliable. Calculations err, and not a little.
​
​Now peruse screenshots of this summary of exercise science research below. And the influencer who stated this is one of the smart ones. And I’m not being ironic. Out of all the noise in the fitness sphere, this is one of the more even-handed level-headed guys. And STILL, he’s willing to summarize with nonsense: “increase in muscle mass... due to a reduction in caloric intake.” Huh? The next sentence is worse: this “did not alter... anabolic signaling nor... muscle protein synthesis.” Double huh? So eat less to gain muscle; and gaining muscle is not muscle gain? Perfectly clear. Well done, sir.

So, I absolutely understand why people are frustrated. They should be. Nutritional reference indices can be 100% wrong, and even the smarter voices of reason in the fitness world are willing to say total scientific nonsense.

Let me help: when something works, do more of THAT; when something doesn’t work, do less or none of THAT. Stop wanting to believe in a theory. Just be an emotionless scientist, focused exclusively on what works, removing what isn’t. Then, conflicting info doesn’t matter at all; and you can put your energy into beneficial effect instead of frustrating hope.
