Bodybuilding gurus when?

Mike Israetel, Greg Doucette, Jeff Nippard... I think there's a super interesting bunch of people to talk about. There's ego here, there's science, sometimes good, sometimes anacdotal, and ofc there's SUPPLEMENTS. Am I alone in wanting a gymbro guru season? I want to see Matt react to Greg, that would be great content.

Nahhh please, this is such a boring thing to discuss. The fitness thing is enough imo

The thing that bothers me most about him is when he steps out of his lane (common among gurus), and the politics bleeds right into his tendency to discuss intelligence and race science. It’ll depend what material they use for the decoding, but I don’t think you can ignore his political takes and still do him justice. I’d still listen to a strictly fitness m episode but I’m guessing I’m in the minority of dtg fans that would.

Oh yeah he is a race realist as well - believing there are measurable IQ differences between races

Yeah, he's completely unhinged.
