I got around to reading more of Bryan Chung's blog,
Evidence Based Fitness, which I linked at the beginning as well. Really a lot of generous info that should help cut throught the science mumbo jumbo. This is a way of arming yourself against the "experts" whose "science", whether you realize or not, isn't always as sensible as it sounds.

April, 2007 (filled with good stuff), has a thing on abstracts which I found very educational.

April, 2007

Hrdgain may like all his writings on Beta Alanine (but it's not the beta alanine blog says Bryan, haha).

Atually one of my favorite strength, conditioning and corrective coaches recently mentioned as "abstract" in one of his writings as support and, even without knowing much, I was a little put off by a guy in his position using just an abstract in research support, especially since this thing I was reading was NOT free. But what he was talking about was sort of an aside and not so important and he may have just mentioned the abstract because he knew his readers would have easy access to it as opposed to a full paper. I don't know but it's something to watch for.

If you act sanctimonious I will just list out your logical fallacies until you get pissed off and spew blasphemous remarks.
