Jasmine Liu — meet your new favorite gym brain

Okay so my dad just texted me that I should add more cardio if I want to 'really see results.' [pause] He means well. He is also wrong. [chuckles] I'm Jasmine. CSCS, powerlifting coach at Iron Asylum in Long Beach, former volleyball libero until my ACL had opinions. That injury is actually how I ended up here — obsessed with the science of getting strong. On this page you'll get real programming logic, protein math that actually adds up, and a running series where I fact-check my dad's 90s gym wisdom in real time. No aesthetic stuff. No vague advice. Just the numbers. Find me at jasmineliu. [pause] And yes, I will tell you your protein is too low.
