      I like people that are strong enough to go against the crowd if its something they really believe in. So my favourite scientist is a Professor in California called George Brooks. He was the first person to really say that lactic acid does not cause fatigue in muscle when we exercise. He has basically gone on to prove this over the last 2o years and now completely re-educated the field. So he’s a bit of a hero in my eyes!
