A Quickie While at Orientation
Filed under: General Health
I am actually at the Folger Library for my UMaine Graduate School Orientation as I write this quick blog. We had about an hour and a half for lunch, and as I am still conditioned to eating food as rapidly as possible from years of eating-while-coaching at CP, I had well over an hour to kill. So here I am.
Yesterday I wrote about the ridiculous accusations put forward by ABC News about creatine and its tenuous link to compartment syndrome.
Fortunately I am far from the only one who felt the need to clear the air on the topic. Chris Shugart over at T-Nation wrote a response that I must say might even be better than my own.
Check it out: ABC News Vilifies Creatine.

Hey Brian,
I am also attending graduate school for Nutrition as well. I was just wondering how you are going to stay up-to-date with the strength and conditioning world as well as keep up with your grad classes?

Chris,
Simple. I will continue to read the blogs of people like Eric Cressey, Tony Gentilcore, Mike Boyle, Mike Robertson, etc.
I will also go to seminars, purchase products and ask questions to people who will know the answers (ie – Eric).
Plus, strength and conditioning is my secondary focus. As much as I love it and want to know a lot about it, my main focus and area of expertise is nutrition. That is just the way it is, and just the way it will continue to be, and I am more than ok with that.
