Yeah.

But evidence-based is when you look at the totality of the evidence, and you take the best available guidance from that, from all of that evidence.

But what happens a lot of times is that these doctor brands will cherry-pick one study from thousands of others, and that study just so happens to conveniently support their specific advice.

And a really good example of this is the LIFT MORE trial.

Basically, a red flag for any type of advice around exercise for bone building is if the person giving the advice only has one study to support their advice to lift heavy, which is probably going to be the LIFT MORE trial, and they haveNot looked at any other research.

They have not taken into account the totality of the research and where it's pointing, right? Where you're gonna wanna be looking at meta-analyses and systematic reviews for that, right? Not just one single randomized control trial, but they'll hold up this one single randomized control trial that showed, yes indeed, heavy lifting is sufficient to build bone.

But it does not actually show that it's even better than other intensities because it compared heavy lifting against what sounds a lot like Pilates, right? So it's not even able to show that heavy lifting is the best way to build bone, and in fact, systematic reviews and meta-analyses have shown that actually maybe moderate intensity, right, something in the eight to 15 rep range is more conducive to bone building than even heavy.

Like that's, that's in the evidence really turning out to be like the most vital part regardless of which category you're lifting in.
