'...nootropic ... “Any substance purported to increase or enhance cognitive abilities." ... communities like the nootropics subreddit, which has a great begginer’s guide.'

At first I thought the mispelling was intentional irony. But the leak to the guide shows that it's just unintentional irony

To add... weightlifting isn't a substance and doesn't fit the definition of a nootropic.

Also, regarding weightlifting... there was no mention about the risk of continuous muscle trauma, scar tissue build-up, nerve damage, and ligament damage.
