I have friends that compete in fitness and physique. Many good people. But fitness culture started to be cringe worthy for me about 4-5 years ago.

I rolled with some folks today and did wrestling take down drills. Good folks.
Not every martial artist is humble .

I still follow Layne Norton & Alan Thrall, then I follow smaller evidence based guys like Iraki Nutrition and Revive Stronger. If you were following all those massive guys like Bradley Martin then yeah...

I would follow Omar Isuf but he has too much fluff for me anymore. Plus Alan Thrall does what he does but better.

Fitness sloots are the worst offenders. Brb do a bunch of stupid leg and booty exercises for 3 months and gain 15lbs to their ass and legs (of which 90% is fat), then suddenly they're fitness experts who have it all figured out.

Don't have a problem with humble gym brahs who occasionally post to IG with a PR or a physique update. It's the *******s who upload the same chitty posts on a day to day basis and talk about the 'grind' and the 'struggle', when gymcelling is a fukkin hobby for 90% of us. It's like someone who plays golf talking about how hard it is to go play golf with the boys on a saturday afternoon.

Very cringe. Unemployed losers who lift acting like they are gods gift to humanity because they go to the gym.

It was cool when I first started lifting. And maybe, that is why all of these fitness channels and pages exist; they are for straight up newbies. I've been lifting for 8 years. I already know how to workout and what to eat etc.

I did that last year when I had an instagram. My cousin was over and I was telling her about #iifym. Basically you can eat anything you want as long as you use the hashtag #iifym. So we were trolling the fuk out of the fitness scene on instagram. I took some bacon and put it between oreos and posted it with that tag and got a ton of likes and comments from fitness people and fitness pages

Omar was the last one I cut, he's just got silly like the rest of them and self absorbed.

I liked Alan Thrall but he seems to have become a shill for starting strength now

Wear what you wanna wear though. I never see Gymshark apparel, and it gets hate online but most people wouldn't care if they saw it.

Damn, nothing wrong with that.

Because that chit is boring as fuk. On the occasion, I like to throw on my goku stringer because I to look at myself when I train. With that being said. The last time I posted pics or was ever involved with social media bs was like 3.5 years ago, and looking back it was super cringey where I was embarrassed with myself.
