the distrust in science is science is supposed to be a very behind the curtain thing, right?

Like a scientist debate about stuff.
FoundMyFitness
#094 Dr. Layne Norton on Building Muscle β Insights on Diet, Training, and Supplements
We do studies and like 30 years after that, we come to a consensus and we go, we think this, right?

#094 Dr. Layne Norton on Building Muscle β Insights on Diet, Training, and Supplements
And instead, everybody got to see the scientific process play out in real life, which was, well, this study says this and this study says this.

In fact, whenever I get into, you know, presenting people with evidence, what they end up defaulting to is why I just don't trust science.

Cause it can just be, it's just be faked.
FoundMyFitness
#094 Dr. Layne Norton on Building Muscle β Insights on Diet, Training, and Supplements

That's much less that happens than just poor design and, um,
FoundMyFitness
#094 Dr. Layne Norton on Building Muscle β Insights on Diet, Training, and Supplements
like or designs or P hacking or designs that are designed in such a way that it looks like you're testing two things, but you're not going to actually see a difference, you know?
FoundMyFitness
#094 Dr. Layne Norton on Building Muscle β Insights on Diet, Training, and Supplements
So very rarely.
