The Bodybuilding Dietitians

The Most Overrated and Underrated Foods, Supplements and Exercises

September 20, 2026·40 min
Episode Description from the Publisher

Which popular fitness trends deserve your time and money, and which are mostly surviving on hype? In this episode, we rate some of the most discussed foods, supplements and training methods as overrated, underrated or fairly rated. We cover creatine dosage and the growing interest in its potential brain benefits, whether greens powders can replace anything meaningful in your diet and why many pre-workouts may be little more than expensive caffeine. We also discuss whole eggs, sardines, potatoes, lentils and legumes before moving into Bulgarian split squats, antagonistic supersets and forced reps. Rather than giving every topic a simple verdict, we explain when each one may be useful, when it becomes overhyped and what may provide a better return. As always, we wrap up with what we learned this week. ⸻   Links & Resources   Coaching Services – https://www.thebodybuildingdietitians.com/enquirenow  Website – https://www.thebodybuildingdietitians.com/   Instagram The Bodybuilding Dietitians – https://www.instagram.com/thebodybuildingdietitians/?hl=en Team TBD – https://www.instagram.com/_teamtbd_/?hl=en Jack Radford-Smith – https://www.instagram.com/jack.radfordsmith/?hl=en  Damien Cox – https://www.instagram.com/dietitian_damiencox/?hl=en Lauren Stevens – https://www.instagram.com/thephysiquedietitian_/?hl=en   ⸻
