When it comes to your health and to your strength training, more specifically…Do you rely on social media trends or real science for your exercise routine? And how do you know if your workouts are actually safe and effective?

Amy Hudson and Dr. James Fisher break down what “evidence-based strength training” really means, exposing common myths and highlighting why scientific research – and not old paradigms – should drive your fitness decisions.

Hosts Amy Hudson and Dr. James Fisher unpack evidence-based strength training.
Dr. Fisher believes that personal trainers should embrace an evidence-based approach, for the fact that people see them as part of the healthcare continuum, just like doctors, dentists, etc.
Dr. Fisher explains what “evidence-based” actually means and what it entails.
Remember: when it comes to strength training, there’s a lot of misinformation on social media platforms.
As Amy points out, hearing someone talk about the benefits they got by training a certain way doesn’t automatically translate into you achieving the exact same result with the same workout.
There are a variety of factors that could impact that, such as your varying ability levels, the metabolic competencies of your body, where you are with your joints, and more!
Dr. Fisher touches upon the ACL reconstruction surgery he had and how that plays into the topic of evidence-based strength training.
“Many institutions rely on evidence-based processes and on scientific research to drive their methodology forward. And strength training is no different at all,” says Dr. Fisher.
Amy and Dr. Fisher talk about what evidence-based strength training actually looks like.
Did you know that about 90% of exercising injuries are a product of free weight strength training?
Training alone or having a supervised strength training session? According to some scientific evidence, supervision shows greater benefits in almost all facets of health, well-being, and physical adaptation compared to unsupervised workouts.
The historic thinking and old paradigms that exist have been debunked by more recent science.
And that’s really what evidence-based training is all about: being able to move with the scientific process.
Interacting with coaches and asking them key questions is something Dr. Fisher believes anyone should do.
