You’re interested in learning and applying the latest training and nutrition research.
We make that easy.

You want to know what the research says and how to apply cutting-edge findings to your training and/or your clients’ training.

You know that keeping up with the latest science is crucial to being the best athlete or coach you can be.

Even if you just lift for fun, you want to be sure you’re getting the most out of your time in the gym.

Keeping up with the 1,000+ new studies published per month is crucial, but quite challenging.

Now, keeping up with the research sounds good in theory, but it’s a huge task in practice.

Going through the studies each month is extremely time-consuming (~80 hours/month, we’d estimate). Spending time figuring out how to apply them all is difficult. Having access to all the different journals is expensive. Interpreting research and figuring out which studies are trustworthy and applicable to you is frustrating. (And that’s just the new stuff – there’s at least 40-50 years of older research you need to be at least reasonably well-acquainted with as well.)

You want the benefits of knowing the latest science-backed training and nutrition advice, but don’t have the time, energy, and money to sift through the journals, pick out which studies are applicable, analyze their design for trustworthiness, critically read them, and figure out how they apply to you training or your client’s training.

We make it easy and enjoyable to stay on top of the research that matters to you.

We do the hard work for you.

We break down the latest research in plain English, so you can apply it to your training and nutrition ASAP.

You can be an expert in strength and physique sport without wasting any more time, energy, or money sifting through studies.

We’ve got the shortcut:

Monthly Applications in Strength Sport (MASS), a research review by Greg Nuckols, Dr. Eric Trexler, Dr. Eric Helms, and Dr. Mike Zourdos.

MASS does all the legwork for you and distills the studies that are the most useful and relevant for you each month.

MASS is a monthly research digest that helps people like you bring your A-Game.

Get reliable interpretations and easily digest the most important research.

People who depend on headlines, shallow articles, and bro advice will be left in the dust. MASS is meticulously researched and curated by four experts. The result is a review full of the highest-quality, most relevant content, with none of the false hype or ill-advised fads.

Be confident that you’re up to speed.

Whether you’re planning your own training and nutrition, coaching a client, conducting an interview, or creating online content, you can be confident that you’re up to date with the information at the cutting edge of our community.

Unlock the best results and most relevant research for you and your clients.

An athlete or coach who knows and truly understands the research has a huge advantage over their competitors. MASS focuses solely on strength and physique athletes, coaches, and enthusiasts. This means that every month, we’ll review only the research that’s the most relevant for you and your results.

Provide your audience with evidence-based information and recommendations.

Plenty of MASS subscribers are content creators focusing on disseminating scientific research to their audiences. We make their jobs much easier by highlighting the most important research, putting it in context, and recommending the main applications and takeaways from each topic.

Skim the key points and our main recommendations in minutes, or dive deep into our full analysis.

You’re in control. Each article begins with a bulleted list of key points and ends with a list of applications and takeaways, giving you the need-to-know points in bite-sized chunks. Both aim to tell you exactly what the newest research means for your training or nutrition so you can start applying the latest science right away. Want to know all the nuance of a particular topic? Dive into the full article for our complete analysis.

Understand how recent research fits into the broader literature.

An essential part of interpreting research is figuring out how new findings fit into the understanding of an entire body of scientific literature on the topic. As the scientific community learns new things and discards old practices, we’ll help you stay abreast so you can grow and evolve without chasing your tail with every new fad or staying stuck in your ways and being bound to tradition.

Learn in whatever style suits you.

We have written, audio, and video content, plus tons of infographics in each issue.

Escape the confusing jargon of scientific literature with our concise, easy-to-understand writing.

We’ll tell you what you need to know while cutting out most of the jargon, acronyms, and confusing language so often found in studies. With precise and pithy writing, interpreting research is simple and accessible to all.

Nerd out, if that’s the kind of thing you’re into.

As an added benefit, our interpretation will aid your ability to dissect additional research which you choose to examine on your own. By reading our monthly reviews, your critical thinking and ability to decipher research will be enhanced to further benefit your capability to improve your training.

“Will I get access to the entire archive of
50+ issues when I subscribe?”

Yes! All subscribers automatically unlock the full MASS archive (400+ articles and videos).

In addition to getting a new issue of MASS every month for the lifetime of your subscription, you also will instantly be granted access to our entire archive of more than 4,000 pages of content. That’s approximately 400 articles and videos, 300 audio episodes, and 80 hours of video.

Honestly, the value is pretty insane.

Our MASS archive is going to be a treasure trove for you if you’re looking for up-to-date, evidence-based advice or commentary on programming, nutrition, supplements, recovery, sports psychology, biomechanics, muscle physiology, and more.

And with an easily searchable, meticulously categorized member website, finding articles and videos on the topics you’re interested in will be a breeze.

One subscriber named Luis said MASS has become the “library of evidence-based research” for his consulting and coaching business.

“How is MASS different
from other research reviews? “

MASS is the research review for strength and physique athletes and coaches.

Other research reviews in our area do a great job keeping you up to date with research into general health and fitness, nutrition research, and research relevant to S&C coaches that work with athletes from other sports, but no research reviews focus exclusively and specifically on people who want to gain muscle, get stronger, and improve their body composition.

If you’re a powerlifter, weightlifter, strongman, CrossFitter, bodybuilder, physique competitor, or a coach for a strength or physique sport, you’ll open your issue of MASS every month to see 8 articles and 2 videos that are very relevant to you, helping you get an edge on the competition. If you fall into one of those groups, MASS is perfect for you.
