I agree with this. I'm not an advocate of broscience, but I don't see the harm in suggesting it to people. While nutrient timing and things like that are "broscience", can it hurt to try and trigger an insulin response with simple carbs after a workout, and then slam down some whey with them? I think that only sounds like a good idea, even if it is not scientifically backed. I've seen a lot more people who use and suggest broscience with the results to back them up than anti broscience people with the results to back up what they say.

They aren't the most intellectual, but 95percent of what they say is correct... They know wtf they are talking about and if I had to point any noob to bodybuilding videos it would be there's...
I lOve the push, leg, pull gym 3 days week plan. It works great for me.
I believe they should talk more in depth about food.
I HATE there views on cardio, I feel that both kinds of cardio can help vascularity and trim fat substantially.
I love there views on supplement also because 99 percent of those don't work, still they don't recommend vitamIns which doesn't make any sense to me.
I may be missing a few things but in a nutshell they aren't bro scientist they speak the truth and are certified trainers

If everyone knew their optimal rate we would have millions of programs tailored to each specific person.
There can't be a routine that works for every single person at an optimal rate as each person reacts slightly differently to stimulus.
Yes programs work but you cannot apply that each person ranging from A-Z on that program with gain X number of lbs lbm in Y amount of time.
So does Madcow work for me? Yes it does. At an optimal rate? Probably not, but I cba to try and make one up myself.

Lol, never seen a single video of these guys that wasn't filled with broscience
brb protein shake right after workout is necessary
brb meal frequency is important
brb protein is the only important macro to count
brb gotta take creatine right before you workout and with juice or its wasted
brb there's no way to structure anything more than a 3 day split and have your muscles recover
brb deadlifts are dangerous, if you want to work your hamstrings much better to squat or leg press
brb do any row that isn't braced or seated and you gonna snap some sh*t up
brb such thing as clean foods and dirty foods
....yeah, okay

The twins are sometimes entertaining, I'll give them that. But I would never rely on their advice. If you want someone who actually knows the science behind working out, watch http://www.youtube.com/user/LiftingForLife

Although I don't agree with everything they say, they are pretty spot on about most stuff they talk about... such as wasting money on too many bogus supplements e.t.c.. they are close to my age as well, so sometimes I tune in to them to see what they have to say, I like how they say you have to find what works for you! which is very true...we are all different.
