I understand your need to back things up ‘medically’, but I think most of the intelligent posters on this site realize there are certain people in the industry/sport that seem to possess an extreme amount of knowledge, supported by actual educational credentials as well as extensive demonstrations with themselves or their athletes/clients. As such, they are wide viewed as quality sources of information and thoughtful conjecture.[/quote]
Yes, and the CONJECTURE part is what I am referring to…so I asked for proof to a statement made as FACT and not conjecture.
Why would you try to stop me from getting to the FACTS f this if there are some?

In these forums, I’ve seen people make references to ‘experts’ such as Meadows, Norton, Klemzewski, Kalman,… and they all seem to get brushed over in lieu of your dental background in ‘discussions’. Still, you’ll reference Christian Thibaudeau’s off the cuff comments when it suits a particular argument.[/quote]
? Excuse me, sir, but a NAME is not proof of anything. If you showed a statement they actually made it would be different.
Saying, “Well, Meadows agrees with me” is saying nothing at all.
If you don’t understand this, please refresh yourself.

In court rooms, the legal teams make a case to accept an individual’s status as an ‘expert’ to a specific subject area. This expert is then allowed to give their educated opinions on a specific matter, despite the fact that it may not have been previously studied to the point of having actual research to back it up.[/quote]
Yes, and the other side can refute that claim with their own expert. Your point?

What would you say if the minimum credentials someone needs to be cited as an expert source in terms of what gets discussed on here?

It has nothing to do with their credentials. I haven’t seen ANY of these men say that a body fat percentage LESS THAN OBESITY causes health problems.
I saw ONE POSTER HERE say that.
Please show me where any of these people agree with this in THEIR OWN WORDS.[/quote]
I’m not going to bother responding, because it really is just feeding the troll, but I will say this in response to your reply (to what I thought was a fairly neutral post):
You really are a rude person. Seriously. In the past, I’ve sometimes felt bad for the couple of guys that really do seem to go out of their way to give you shit, but by this point no. What you bring negatively to this site by far exceeds what you could possibly bring positively. I have no fucking clue why the hell so many quality people have been banned in recent years, or left on their own, for relatively minor issues, and yet somehow the powers that be feel that you’re an asset. Sadly, I guess it really does all come down to thread views. Bursting my own little bubble here of respectability I guess.
I know you’ll reply something witty and smirk as you type, but I don’t care. I’m out.
