Ep 348 - What Does Your Favorite Fit Pro's PhD Actually Mean?
About this episode
A recent dust-up in the evidence-based fitness world has sparked a lot of discussion about credentials. How are they earned, what do they represent, and how do they impact the way we engage with someone's content, recommendations, or products? This episode of Iron Culture discusses all of that (and more).
