Since there isn't a real thread for the juicy drama that is going on in the lifting space I tought I make one. Discussing all of the people in the space. Nippard, Doucette, Revival fitness, Anabolic stick and all the others.


Starting with the recent fall from grace of Nippard.

For years in the youtube fitness industry has been a toxic cesspool between brolifters, grifters, scammers selling products that dosent work and sience based lifters.
But there has been one name that was considered the gold standard with a stellar reputation Jeff nippard. Nippard has for years created lifting content and is a claimed lifetime natrual.
Nippard is the leader of the sience based lifter movment that aims to get the most out of excersise by doing it optimally using resarch. He is seen frequently with various fitness "scientists" like Mike Isratel and his image as a sience guy is very important to him even tough very little sience is being done in the videos.

On the 13th of July Jeff released the following video with the infamous fake natties Hussein Farhat and Julian Fitzgerald called "how to look like your on sterorids".
The videos premise is simple he lines up a bunch of guys from obviously on roids to fit and gets a bunch of randoms to guess if they are natty or not. Jeff later on has them take a bloodtests and says to the randoms that everyone in the lineup is natrual.
The thing is as the comments point out singular bloodtests prove nothing. Cause these guys have been in hot water from the start and when setting up a video like this they are obviously gonna get a couple of months of notice meaning that they can cycle off.
Lance Armstrong passed 500 blodtests without getting caught.

Why is this a big deal?
One of the most popular type of content in the space is natty or not. When people try to gauge if a person is on sterorids or not. Not being on steorids is a big deal since you can sign brand deals and sell supplements and traning programs. Its a billion dollar industry so it's a big fucking deal whether people believe that your sipping on the forbidden capri sun.

Why are Jeffs fans upset over the video?
But I hear you say whats got Jeffs fans so stirred up? Everyone in the fitness community is on gear. Well it features the two most controverisal "natties" Hussein farhat & Julian Fitzgerald. Two people who don't pass the eye test yet claim natty status. Who has only trained for 2-3 years yet has achived gains that is only possible over 10 years of optimal traning and nutrion. So the entire thing is just a fluff piece for the two biggest fakes in the industry.

Natrually this went down terrible with Jeffs audiance leading to callout videos and funny comments.

Then Jeff doubled down with this video:
Where he tries to compare lifters of the past with Julian & Hassan and fails missrably.


Who is Hussein Farhat?
Coach Greggs protoge. Claims to have done an abosloutly insane transformation where he put on 50 pounds of muscle in his garage doing ladder pullups despite remaning at sub 10% bodyfat in 18 months. Got called out by grifter Greg doucette who he sent a blodtest to and after that Gregg changed his tune and made him par towner of his supplement company. His image of natty is very important to sell more supplaments.

Who is Julian Fiztgerald?
He is an 19 year old fitness influncer that claims to be natty.. Biceps almost bigger then his head, roid gut with 10% bodyfat. He has only trained for 3 years while looking better then people who has been at it for 20 years.
He recently embrassed himself when he was lifting with Larry Wheels. Claming that he usually warmsup with 70 pound dumbells while barley being able to get 2 reps. The video exposes that he in general has no idea what he is doing in the gym with terrible technique. He almost kills himself benching 150kg in the video.

People are still dunking on Jeff despite it happening over a month ago and I think it's one of those things that is never gonna go away.
 
Hussein Farhat threw Jeff Nippard under the bus on Saturday.
Coming Out (The Truth)

Greg Doucette has been running defense for Hussein for over 2 months, and again in this video. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EkGO-xC0a1U. Only a day after, he came out to tell the truth about Hussein's PED use, in the Coming Out video, after the backlash by Anabolic Steroid and Revival Fitness videos.
They say in the video that Hussein planned to represent himself as a natural bodybuilder and work with Greg Doucette on his video after he hopped off PEDs (300 EQ, 300 Test, and 300 Masteron) a few months later. In the same video they also defend Julian Fitzgerald as a natty, the same time as they announce Hussein is on PEDs, and excuse Hussein's muscle retention as polymorphism.

Everyone and their mother knows that Greg is a grifter who will defend his clients and shill his low quality supplements every video, it should have been obvious when Greg did the video on Hussein they were lying about something.
But Jeff still defended Hussein and Julian in "How To Look Enhanced Without Steroids". https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2qDA86gP_zg. Jeff fans were heavily defending Hussein in Jeff Nippard's video, even though Hussein trained for only 3 years and looks as big as Jeff does after 10 years. But after the How To Spot A Fake Natural (Using Science) video, his fans began to turn on him with over 35k dislikes, more than the last video, and the comments are changing their minds. Jeff fans are probably newbies and finally found out about grifters.

I think Jeff knew and was along for the ride and the science based vs bro lift is a grift. Or he is retarded and was genuinely tricked by Hussein and Greg to tank his reputation. Now hundreds of literally who youtubers are reacting and proclaiming Jeff Nippard as the false prophet saying his reputation is tanked. And Jeff Nippard's fans are slowly turning on him.
Jeff responded and admitted he was wrong but saying it was a publicity stunt by Greg against him.

Revival may have been right.

Gregg needs to release the Nippsteinfiles

The only thing to me that is unexplaniable is why Nippard did it?

Gregg giving him a fat bag dosen't make sense in my eyes as nippard must have plenty of money based on the succes of his channel, app and book.
I think the truth is that Nippard is a midwit. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4Yp3YF1Ofc8 Here is a video from simplfied fitness that shows that Jeff has no understanding on how to read or inturept scientfic pappers. Jeff will often make sweeping conclusions based on minisccule sample sizes. Nippard is desperate to believe that he hasn't reached his natrual limit and to show that his sience based dogma is the truth.



Also other drama but Mike Isratel has completly lost his mind. Bro now cries over conversations he has with AI.
 
Latest drama is peak.
Meatheads arguing over academic credentials.

- A VERY BRIEF RECAP -

It starts with Solomon calling out Dr Mike Israetels PhD. Salomon i don't really know who he is but "Dr Mike" is a fitness/lift heavy/lost boys father figure-influencer who suck his own dick never missing a beat to remind his viewers how smart he is and what high IQ he has. He's your run of the mill "Lift heavy, clean room" kinda dude with extra insufferable on top.

´The paper Solomon show us is a farce, Its full of spelling errors, bad data and has a laughable thesis. It wouldn't hold up for a bachelor, to put it nicely. He goes over it pointing out the glaring errors and end it as a more of a discussion video where he question quality control within academia as a whole and within certain fields especially.
-Solomons video-


Hilarity ensues when Mike get one of his fans colleagues, Dr Milo, to do damage control for him. Dr Milo is another "science based lifter" with a degree and he puts out a video going after Solomon saying that the paper Salomon reviewed was a draft but he's now gonna show us the REAL paper and explain how academia works.
The paper he show us is OLDER than the one Salomon reviewed but contain less errors (still crappy data) and it's then found out the owner of the document is Mikes social media manager. It's also two different documents franktensteined together where 1 part is a editable word document and the last half is the university credentials blatantly scanned in.
-Milos Video-

EDIT: Turns out neither my version nor Solomon’s version was the final archived copy. The confusion came from multiple drafts and misleading file dates, but after further digging, we’ve confirmed what actually happened. At the time, there was reasonable evidence pointing both ways - Solomon’s version had the later modified date, while the one I reviewed had more pages, the correct department name, and over 1,500 ETSU edits and typo fixes. On balance, I believed mine was final - but that turned out to be wrong.Dr. Mike has since publicly clarified the full timeline and taken full responsibility for the mix-up. He confirmed that neither I nor my editors had any involvement in the file error, and that there was no deception of any kind - it was simply an honest mistake with multiple overlapping versions.Many of the rebuttals in the video still stand, regarding originality, what a PhD is meant to be, etc. However, I've removed/trimmed sections relating to confusion around version history.

Dr Mike then comes out, throwing Milo under the bus, and say "oops, that's not the right version of my doctorate dissertation lol, Salomon had the correct one. Milo somehow picked the wrong one"
Finding out that it's a shit excuse after being properly clowned on he also realize he is now under scrutiny for academic fraud he goes "I never publicized it because you know... And its been 12 years, how am I supposed to keep track of my one and only doctorate dissertation" making Milo look like complete retard (more than he did himself) and now people are questioning Milos credentials as a PhD holder.

The timeline:

The latest is that the paper is... Somewhere. And that the university had a stern talking with Mike.
Mike also hide the paper in the university database so you can't search for it :story:

Also how the same people who made a career out of doing "investigating gym journalism!/gym exposes" aka posting "This influencer is not natty" on tiktok is now calling people voicing their frustration "NERDS" (goob_u2). Deplatformed if you facetune a gymselfie but if you think its scummy to temper with your academic papers "fucking nerd, go do some squats! loser".

This clownshow has been going on for a week now and the train ain't slowing down

All I can say is that I wish Greg Doucette a million videos.


EDIT: A second Solomon just hit the bodybuilder community :bogged: (He literally open the video with this pic)
It's about Jeff Nippard, apparently Solomons former client and dedicated Dr Mike guarder
