Overview

Pumped-Up Fiction: A Field Guide to the Health & Fitness Myths That Refuse to Die

Every gym has that one guy. He doesn't believe in cardio, he's pretty sure carbs are a government conspiracy, and he once told you sweating is just your body "releasing toxins." He is wrong about all of it, and he is not going away.

This book is the intervention nobody asked for. Written by a doctor who has spent over a decade watching patients quote WhatsApp forwards as peer-reviewed research, Bulked-Up Fiction rounds up fifteen chapters' worth of gym legends, supplement-aisle promises, and cousin-of-a-trainer folk wisdom, then quietly and thoroughly ruins all of them with facts.

You'll find out why your "slow metabolism" isn't the villain you think it is, why six small meals a day mostly just means six small dishes to wash, and why that pre-workout powder is not, in fact, rocket fuel. Along the way there are fifty bonus myths, actual citations, and jokes ranging from "mildly amusing" to "please stop, I'm reading this on a treadmill."

Think of it as a myth-busting gym buddy who never skips leg day and never lets you skip logic either.

No detox teas were harmed. They never do anything anyway.
