From recent discussions I have had with people interested in Health and Fitness, there seems to be a massive difference of opinion over all things gym. People talk of something called "broscience" - a totally new term to me which basically means knowledge which is spread by word of mouth that has no scientific founding. It also means that anything without citation to a credible medical study or source is almost immediately classed as "broscience" if it is different to someone elses opinion.
I think as people interested in Health and Fitness, we all have opinions on what works and what doesn't - this is based on what we have read and experience we have. It has been a valuble lesson learnt for me writing this blog, as any article I write going forward will have full citation from credible sources or otherwise it will clearly state that it is simply from my experience.
In my humble opinion the most important thing in Health and Fitness is to find, Training, Nutrition and Supplements that works for you. Some people will find certain training plans are not suited to them but another person will love that same training plan, the same with nutrition plans and supplements and so on.
It is most important to know yourself and know your goals and most importantly make educated choices based on what works for you. There are of course certain basic rules that will need to be adhered to in order to achieve your goals but you can experiment with training, nutrition and supplements (legal) to a certain extent within those rules with the different advice that is out there and find what works best for you.
Perhaps the most important rule however that should never be crossed is to stay safe in what you do and never risk your health.
See you in the Gym!
