Brent Brookbush
Brent Brookbush is the Founder of the Brookbush Institute of Human Movement Science, and the author of Fitness or Fiction: The Truth About Diet and Exercise.
His book is a straightforward read that clears up many misconceptions and myths about fitness that permeate our culture and media. I’m a fan of myth busting so kudos to him for putting this content out there. He believes that fitness doesn’t have to be hard or painful and neither should reading about it.
We talk about a few myths in the book, the Brookbush Institute, Integrated Muscular Anatomy, Neuroscience, the benefits of stretching, hypermobility, why women should lift, why the no pain no gain mentality is bull, hot yoga and more.
