Episode 74: McGill We Go Again

  • Summary

  • Welcome to Season 5 and Episode 74 of the Movement Logic podcast! In this unplanned episode, Laurel and Sarah discuss Stu McGill’s recent appearance on the Huberman podcast. In Episode 62, we identified McGill’s big themes around movement. In this episode, we go through his appearance on Huberman to see if he’s still promoting the same ideas or if he has updated his approach.

    You will learn:

    • Why we are once more deconstructing Stu McGill’s standpoint and outdated views on movement safety
    • Why a hyperfocus on potential future pain is not only unhelpful but can put people off from exercising at all
    • Why we need to be encouraging more people to lift weights vs scaremongering them away from it
    • How McGill seems to continue to characterize himself as a ‘healer’ when in fact he is often well out of his scope of practice
    • McGill’s continued overuse of anecdote and analogy in lieu of evidence and research
    • Whether we will cover it if and when McGill goes on Rogan next (spoiler: we won’t)
