Is heavy resistance training really better for tendon adaptation, or is strength training being oversold as a way to “target” connective tissue? In this video, I break down what the research actually shows about tendon adaptation in response to resistance training and strength training. We look at whether tendons remodel differently with heavy vs light loads, what targeting connective tissue really means, and why many claims go beyond what the data can support. I walk through a large meta-a...

Most people think weighted vests are just another short-lived fitness trend, but the science paints a different picture. When used properly, they can boost metabolism, improve blood sugar control, and even help preserve bone density during weight loss. In this video, I break down what the research actually shows about weighted vest walking, strength training, and cardio, from how short, frequent bouts of movement can outperform long sessions to how wearing extra weight can help your body main...
