One group of gym goers lift weights with the thought

“I have got to lift as heavy as I can to get big.”

On the other hand, another common sentiment is,

“I don’t want to be too muscular, but I want to get toned so I will stick to these light weights.”

So, who is right?

Well it really isn’t that simple, but at the same time, it actually is.

With the scarcity of fitness equipment, many are having to get creative with their fitness plans. Yet are your muscles suffering? The team examines the science behind these two debatable schools of fitness thought. This is not just scratching the surface, but a deep dive into the core behind weightlifting.

Doc Mok an advanced GI doctor specializing in nutrition, guthealth and cancer and RN Graham an ICU nurse and Physique Competitor smash the broscience this week on light versus heavy weightlifting.

Their guest is Sherif Ultrafit, a certified, Master personal trainer practicing in Florida who has experience in training clients in everything from golf to MMA.
