How to Read Fitness Research - NEW product

As most of my readers know, I base a majority of my philosophies and articles on academic research and "in the trenches" experience from either training myself or working with clients and athletes.

But most people don't know how to read or where to find fitness papers.  Get ready to learn:

My fellow Canadian buddy Mark Young just came out with a product this week that explains how to read fitness research.

Mark does a great job of breaking down each component of an academic article and explains how to interpret the different sections.  Mark created this product to "allow you to think for yourself and to be free from the biases of second hand reviews, misinformation and pseudoscientific marketing."



Here are a few notes that stood out to me after watching the webinars:

1. The method section – if you were to only one part of the paper, this is it!  This makes or breaks the paper and shows you if the paper is garbage or not.  
2. Don’t base your conclusions by just reading the abstract.  The abstract is just a summary of the article and not enough to form conclusions.  It just shows if the paper is relevant to you to read.
3. Form a journal club to save on purchasing articles.
4. Don’t take a single paper and think it’s the gold standard…you have to ask yourself if the paper supports or contradicts other research.

Mark also includes a bonus webinar on how to use Pubmed and an mp3 interview with Dr. Stewart Phillips on the topic of hypertrophy and muscle metabolism research.

All this for only $37 - it's a steal.  I would recommend this product to any strength and conditioning coach, personal trainer, students entering a master's program in Human Kinetics/Kinesiology or anyone who loves reading fitness research.
