Earlier in the week, I clicked through an interesting presentation given at the recent International Society of Sports Nutrition conference. Entitled “Sports Supplements, Science, and the Politics of New Washington“, it offered some explicit warnings to the supplement industry. As authors Rick Collins, JD, CSCS and Alan...
White Goodman Lives!
If you’ve ever seen the movie “Dodgeball”, then you know who White Goodman is.
