re: I started Athlean-X's Max/Shred program yesterday.

He was the Mets personal trainer for years. I know some people don’t like him because of his click baity titles but he knows way more then most of these fitness youtubers when it comes to things like injury prevention and proper form.

He's not my favorite YouTube fitness channel, but his advice is legit. He has a solid background and all his stuff is based in actual science and knowledge. It isn't selling snake oil like six pack shortcuts or vshreds.

My biggest criticism is his videos have a lot of form instruction and exercises, but less in terms of programming and progressive overload. Form and exercises are important, but proper programming and progressive overload are a big point a lot of people fail.

I get that he doesn't do that bc he sells programs and he doesn't want to cut the heart out of his income there.
