I've read this thread as mostly a place that people can come talk through gain progression, talk about different ways to approach goals, etc. I'm glad you are a PT Lune, but the reality is exactly what you said, the "science" of lifting can be incredibly subjective and tends to need to be based on each individual.

So lets just assume that every post comes with the caveat of "We don't know what the truth is on this matter, the evidence is conflicting, but here's how I do it, and why, and this is how it works for me."
You don't need a medical degree (which I do possess). You just have to put aside the ego and be able to put time into research. The science is there. There's a reason why powerlifters don't max cold and do a progression.

Anyways, I'm usually pretty chill in this thread. And it's something I'm very passionate about. Especially when it comes to helping other people get their gainz. But if you come on here and straight up tell me I don't know what I'm talking about because you're a physical therapist without the facts, you're going to have a hard time.

But didn't realize that this is more like... P99's 4chan or something.

except instead of random anons its a shark attack of a small clique that posts here all the time. so he's doubly fucked.
