How (And Why) to Build Muscle
Although I like Chris's podcasts, I was disappointed in this one with Mike Matthews for two reasons: 1) I can't believe that it is almost 2022 and podcast guests are still touting whole grains and calorie counting. Views like that keep the US the fattest, laziest country in the world, as evidenced by the fact that we lead the world in obesity and diabetes. Counting calories doesn't work, as people have gained weight eating 1,000 calories per day if they eat the wrong foods. To paraphrase an old saying: It's the insulin stupid. 2) He never really explained how to build muscle, the title of the episode, other than to work against resistance (and to buy his book). I disagree that to gain strength, a person needs to work out for 45 minutes multiple times a week, when studies have shown that benefits can be achieved in half that amount of time. In a society where we have trouble getting most Americans to engage in ANY movement, I fear that 45 minutes several times a week will deter most people from starting an exercise program at all.Read full review »

This podcast has been very educational. It helps in both everyday life and in my clinical practice. His research on cholesterol was incredible. I love the fact that Kresser pours his efforts back into educating his listeners. This an incredible podcast, very level headed, and very informative.
