Hey docs, just want to say that this last episode was very well done. Of the three, it’s the most direct, specific and (as much as possible) concise. I don’t envy you the challenge of making content that both stands the test of time (at least until new evidence changes the model) and attempts to respond to contemporaneous controversies. Unlike a lot of podcasts out there, it stays on track without a lot of distracting tangents. Clearly well thought out, in advance.
fwiw your description of the inadequacies of the logical constructions to explain the physiological response to training reminded me of the history of the field of quantum mechanics (Physics is my educational background, though I’m not a historian of it!). It was mostly phenomenological, struggling for acceptance given its very unintuitive nature, for decades prior to the work that built the Standard Model we use today. So relatively speaking, you guys could have it worse
