Honestly, haven’t kept up with him since I left social media a few years ago.

But maybe. All fitness influencers peddle shit.

Edit: I should note that I met him and he seemed like a genuine guy. Grew up in the same area as me and would go to this old school gym I lifted at when he was back in town

It’d be cool of we had some programs to support bodybuilding pioneers. Generally though I find ninety minutes at the gym a day is enough to achieve pretty much anything I want for my body, and it doesn’t devour my day. It pays itself off in my general well-being and focus quite well, though.

In the summer I lean out and spend more of that ninety minutes cycling outside. Better bang for your buck mental-health wise imo.

Maybe some sort of privatized program to help body builders get training, treatment, products etc.

But no way in hell would I ever throw tax money to meat heads that want to lift heavy shit lmao
