Kinesiologist talks the science of muscle building!

On this week's episode, I sit down with Dr. Jimmy Bagley, who is a Professor of Kinesiology at San Francisco State University. Dr. Bagley specializes in muscle physiology and talks about how muscles use energy and what the research really shows about getting in shape. Dr Bagley also discusses the reality of research studies and how many people "cherry pick" data to prove their own hypothesis, when the truth is much more complicated. You can reach out to Dr. Bagley at his lab's instagram at: https://instagram.com/musclephyslab Thank you to all of my supporters who are supporting me on Patreon and allowing me to grow this channel!
