Paulo Gentil: The King of Retractions

by Bret Contreras March 08, 2023

Paulo Gentil is a Brazilian research professor with more retractions than any sports scientist. He falsifies studies and promotes pseudoscience. The people of Brazil deserve to know the truth about Paulo Gentil. Apparently, he’s been trying to intimidate Brazilian scientists who speak up against him by threatening to sue them. He can’t cover this up forever. Here are some links to check out:

How is Paulo Gentil still a research professor? And why do people still take him seriously? And why will he do anything in his power – even falsify studies and fabricate pseudophysics – to try to discredit the hip thrust? He’s utterly obsessed. So bizarre!
