>>381220 there is much background to this, but simply, he is a peer, and as such, should so respect to the elders in our work (exerc. physiology), even though we are all 'like younger, smarter, and better, etc'. I show respect. He doesnt and has to 'earn his spurs' clawing and tearing with everyone who'd disagree with him (even w/decades more experience)
short and sweet. check out Cressey's internet attacks and nut flexing on Coach John Davies (i man i ultimately respect)
also, his solo products are a rip off. Literally the only thing i regret more was picking up SS 2nd ed. YES he knows his shit, YES i'll quote his work, YES i'm a 'corrective exercise guy' too, altho thats not how i pay my bills. his best stuff was in fact, done by Mike Roberston.
tl dr: sure, he's bright, he trains (IMO) in the most optimal level of theory and practice behind what he does....BUT he's an dick, has something to prove, and is a little circle jerker shuckster with all the other B-list T-nation celebs. note how they all give glowing reviews to each other's products? it reminds me of the bullshit NSCA S&C journal where the author of one article peer reviews the author who is peer review him (conflict of interest)
