"Fit 20 Study" with Dr. James Steele and Dr. PAK

Episode 11... Double doctors!!! Take that nerds!!! It feels like Christmas... because it is! And guess what I'm stuffing your stockings with??? SCIENCE!!!

Fair warning... this episode is old. Also from that previous life and show where they liked to stifle good ideas and creavtivity. Thankfully, their loss is your gain and this episode will now live in Exercise is Bullshit infamy. This is truly at look at the outside end of the spectrum of what real "minimum dose" is. There's minimum dose, and then there's "The Fit20 Study" HERE.

This study has it's limitations, but the idividuals were "regular" people not 18 year old college students, making it more ecologically valid (science!). There was also a huge data set (approx. 1500 individuals over 6 years).

These are also two of my favorite humans in the game. Dr. PAK is the thunder, but Dr. Steele is truly the analytical and algorythmic lightning. So strap in and a take a linguistic adventure with a brit and a greek... this sounds like the start of joke. The punchline... if your goal isn't "optimization" you can probably get away with A LOT less than you've been lead to believe and still see relatively impressive gains in strength.
