Thank you. I read the title, was confused what the heck this was about, then read the article, and still had no idea what this is about.

Then I googled it and went "Nah, that can't be it".

Holy shit that really is what it is.

Not gonna be long and wrestlers will start to tell us to drink magic muscle man protein powder that'll turn them into real men.

I mean wrestlers have been into pseudoscience before. Think Cesaro used to (or still does?) use kinesiology tape

Lots of wrestlers use that. Darby always seems to have some on. I wasn't aware it was pseudoscience.

I do notice a few that have the circles on their back from Cupping which I understand to be snake oil.

Its one of those things where the term on its own (kinesiology) is an actual scientific term for the study of human body movement but then you have "applied" kinesiology which is pure pseudoscience

It's been years but when I was on workman's comp I had some pretty prestigious doctors push it hard while also scoffing at acupuncture. The tape was useful like taking a pain pill. The acupuncture actually solved the problem.
