Stuart Phillips (he/him)

Lectura obligatoria. Gracias Stu y a todo el equipo. Un trabajo excelente!

@RobWust Ah NBD... haters gonna hate... the biggest reason people get all wired is because we show how easy it is and how much actually works and that takes away the line "...our programs are 'best' so come buy our programs..." RT is, at its core, ridiculously simple!

@mackinprof Sorry to hear you have to continue to defend publishing these big summary papers🥴. This paper is extremely helpful with providing an in-depth overview of resistance training for practical and academic use 🤩

It's a huge summary that now allows folks to say this is the case with evidence and it goes well beyond RWE.

@therealcjhill @Brady_H Yup

@mackinprof @Brady_H What is it. Water

Creatine doesn't "work" if you don't also strength train. A new meta-analysis found that creatine supplementation led to significant gains in fat-free mass (+3.39 kg) and lean body mass (+2.70 kg), but ONLY when combined with resistance training. Without training, no effects.

@FitnessFoundry 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻

@PrimaryCarePAC @BayeDrew Judging by the emails I occasionally get they are really mad! 😂

@BayeDrew @mackinprof They still are!

You may have "known" that you have to lift heavy for muscle growth. The 2026 ACSM Position Stand says that is not necessary.

@ethanjweiss Welcome to my Ted Talk on Social Media 😂

Everyone is an expert at everything!

@lebosquet @DerekGriffin86 @SamueleMarcora Under-dosing is a big deal in RT... juts like early days of prescription of HIT for clinical pops... people are afraid they will do more harm. We touch on adverse events in the stand. Likely safer than AT!

@DerekGriffin86 @SamueleMarcora @mackinprof 100%. Expanding capacity, expands capacity.

1/ Big update in exercise science: ACSM has revised its resistance training Position Stand for the first time since 2009. That is a 17-year gap, and a lot has changed. 🧵pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC12…

Finally: the adults have entered the room. Court swats back RFK Jr’s wholesale changes to the US vaccine schedule and renders the inept and biased ACIP advisory panel (filled with cranks and antivaxxers) moot.

@RobertKennedyJc @KCKlatt @cremieuxrecueil I mean your measles outbreaks are awesome!

@RobertKennedyJc @KCKlatt @cremieuxrecueil Hey buddy love you 😘

The carnivore-not carnivore raw milk guy and the wellness protein bar industry are yet again scamming you. Apart from the clickbait of grass-fed and beef tallow, and pretending added sugars in the form of coconut nectar and honey is uniquely good for you... this bar shouldn't really be counted as 20g of protein. The tip off is 20g from a blend that is whey and collagen. Collagen is a poor quality protein, with a protein score of zero. They don't disclose how much protein is in the formulation from collagen but we can derive it using the daily value, which has to be corrected for protein quality. The %DV is derived using 50g per day of protein as the goal, meaning .24*50= 12g quality protein. That's the ~amount of protein in 1/2c of greek yogurt or a Rx bar. Except these bars are 5.75$ each

The coming of age of resistance exercise!

@JimDillon158217 @foundmyfitness 😘

@foundmyfitness Does anybody still trust science? Especially someone woke enough to use pronouns. Lol. Pass

A great summary by Dr. Stu Phillips on the updated resistance training recommendations. "The best resistance training program is probably not the most complicated one. It is the one you can do consistently, progress sensibly, and stick with over time."

@ba63142337 @foundmyfitness 😘

@foundmyfitness Thank goodness he listed his pronouns…

For those interested, you are invited to read the paper in full: pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC12… Paper: Currier BS et al. ACSM Position Stand.

@m366378 @KCKlatt @cremieuxrecueil Ooh, a harsh comeback... choose from 1 of 150 other bars... this is nothing new and shows how unoriginal the creators are... 😘

@mackinprof @KCKlatt @cremieuxrecueil The whole point is that for busy people on the go sometimes it’s not possible to have a steak and for a plane trip for example, this is a very reasonable option. Certainly better than your virtue signaling stupid pronouns.
