I've just written a new post raising a series of concerns about Nucleus Genomics, a company that offers embryo selection services based on polygenic scores for couples undergoing IVF. I was shocked by the degree to which Nucleus's work is obviously plagiarized or simply wrong.

Pseudoscience is popular in part because it seeks to confirm our beliefs. Science can be less popular in part because it seeks to interrogate our beliefs. Good science, like good art and literature, can upset the established ways in which we see the world.

Our just pubbed paper showed that the use of various specific warm up protocols did not enhance performance of the bench press or leg press when training at 10RM. Suggests you can save time w/o a SWU. Kudos to @Alysson_Enes for spearheading the project 💪 sciencedirect.com/science/articl…

"Balance" exercises, like standing on an unstable surface, and doing calf raises or squats are often advocated to improve "stability" or "balance". But, what are they really doing and are they valuable?
