Tom Brady Is Drowning In His Own Pseudoscience
This is more schlock blog writing. It could have been good reporting if she stuck to the sources, but calling it psuedoscience is crazy.
Here are just a few problems:
1. Drinking a lot of water has been studied by many researchers, and has been determined to be beneficial for any number of reasons. Drinking too much water can kill you. Tom is not advising people to drink so much water that you DIE.
2. The term pliability is a perfectly fine descriptor for the stretching and bending of muscles. If doctors have never heard it before, it's because they did badly on the vocab section of the GRE.
3. Guerrero's peddling of snake oil in the past has slimed his future endeavors, even though they are the normal things I hear when my children train locally with experts who train Olympians (relax, I don't pay that much; it is $15 per visit when done in a group!).
4. Tom's experience is juxtaposed against his fellow football players who try to build muscle, bulk up, etc. There's a context for what Tom is doing, and it is relative to the training standards of the NFL.
5. Tom is maybe a bad businessman hooking up in a venture with a man who has been censured by the FDA, but that just means he's a billionaire with money to burn; it doesn't make him duplicitous.
6. Tom is selling products in his book! Oh the horror! Peyton Manning would never do that!
