It is funny to read what some people write on here, everyone is an expert at everything. Jay Cutler 4x Mr. Olympia has a vid out on YouTube where he says that his clients will argue about the best training methods and "everyone is an expert". Its so true lol. Who else agrees with me?

    Its just general advice that people give when asked. Then when someone disagrees with them or even has research or IDK a degree in that field, they are still more knowledgeable and give better advice. Everyone for the most part seems to be an expert at health and fitness, diets, bodybuilding, weigh training etc.

    I like what Wendler has to say on the subject.

    Ehh. Everyone has their own opinions, experiences, and beliefs. If something they post helps someone in a positive way, I don't think it matters that they are an expert or not.

    Agree, man. Some of these people will argue nuclear physics with a nuclear physicist.
    Most of what I've learned in the past 20 years about nuclear physics came from glocktalk, an enthusiast site for Austrian pistols. One of the participants there was a nuclear physicist who was quite willing to share his insights.

    Experts today are old news tomorrow. Want true expert advice? Think, "ancient history".. Before scientist and experts starting telling everyone that they are doing it wrong and what the 'right way' is. Better yet, look at cultures with the least obesity ratings and health problems who still eat like their ancestors ate. Look at the work they do and how often they work. Look at their quality of life. Those are the "experts". Example.. eating fish for health vs limiting it because of mercury and waste run off. The longest living cultures are still eating their fish!

    I feel like I missed a thread? Was something deleted that I didn't see? A thread or a post? I am lost about the hate and roided up bodybuilders.

    Yeah, I feel like I'm missing something too...
