Thank you for everything you're doing, bruh, it's important as fuck, and as a part-time lifting educator HAHAHA I do appreciate most of your content, dude, it's refreshing and adds tons of fuel to my motivation and curiosity.
Great to see Dr. Pak at this table, with Dave! It's almost a validation that his voice and expertise really matters in the strength community. I've been following him here on YT for a while now and I love his strength training content. I actually did his minimum effective dose training for squats early this year, while I was pushing more for the deadlift and it worked great. It allowed me to run a Sheiko-style high volume deadlift program at 51 yo without burning out. I was able to do 3 pulling/hinging exercises (15-20 hard-ish sets) a week, besides one squat workout and I made progress on the squat, too. For an old timer over 50 with shitty sleep that's a big deal!
In Pak's study, they added 50lbs to their total in 6 weeks?! I feel like the time period of this is pretty limiting because I'd consider a 2kg increase in any lift in 6 weeks to be significant. That's like 17kg/year per lift.
You have to understand the neural adaptations related to strength- they will very-very-very likely not make 50lbs total improvements EVERY 6 weeks they train. Chris beardsley and paul carter have talked about how minimally fatiguing programs work best for powerlifting as there is no interference from fatigue due to excess volume/intensity.
All the confounding variables are controlled by randomisation. That's something that people without training in science and statistics don't understand.
I like Dr. Pak, but they drilled him pretty good showing the knowledge gap. These researchers should collaborate more with the real experts before choosing study design.

Thank you for having me!

Great talk. Love the research
Where would I go to learn all the basic boring shit that we for sure know works for powerlifting?
I'm not gonna lie, I think that being on Table Talk is how you know you're legit in this field. Glad to see that Dr. Pak has made it!
You know you’ve made it when you’re on Table Talk 👏🏼 well done Pak
Amazing conversation, Dr Pak definitely one of the best in the business
Easily one of the best conversations you've had on this podcast. Thanks so much for this!

S-tier guest.
Well said about the need to interpret the findings of studies in their context, and the need for cumulative evidence before drawing strong conclusions
Pak made it
I cant even eat looking at this dudes piercings
Well done Pak
Imagine running into Tom late night in a Walgreens parking lot... terrifying 😅
I wish all practitioners were as smart as the punk guy (sorry for not knowing the name)

They wasnt peaked in the beggining i think...it was not a 50lb all time PR, just cosidering before and after study if i got it right
Is Tom Sheppard Scottish?
Maximize Gains, minimize En^%$3

That dude is so well spoken but his piercings are distracting

He did though. They were limited by Covid and the amount of willing participants. They just weren’t American experts
