In this video I'm addressing 5 common criticisms of RPE:

1. It's not good for beginners (Athlean-X)
2. People are using it to "hide behind science" (Athlean-X)
3. It's for p_______ (Greg Doucette and Mark Rippetoe)
4. RPE isn't accurate (No one in specific)
5. It's overinformation (Greg Doucette and others)
