@atlaspowershrugged is an athlete, coach, husband & father. His focus on using unconventional and “old-time” lifts helps himself and clients build strong, mobile and muscular physiques. He’s the author of Old Time Lifts for Modern Lifters and the Antifragile Diet.
Science-based lifting is all the buzz these days but there are many, many reasons to be pretty skeptical about their claims. In this episode we dive into much of it, from the flaws in training philosophy, the new problems that they may create, and the psychological traps that create the gap for these ideas.
Humans have been training and getting big, strong and athletic for a very long time. That’s not to say we should never learn new things, but we also shouldn’t be so quick to throw things out that have worked for years and years. This goes for nutrition as well.
Hopefully this conversation helps clear the air for you so you can spend your time and effort focusing on things that are legitimately going to move the needle for you in your health and fitness pursuits.
