Well that was a blast (pun intended) from the 4 videos I watched he’s trying to get ripped by taking tren (175mg p/w) and Test (400 or 500mg he isn’t sure ) and drinking 24 drinks per day and not exercising, at all. What could possibly go wrong.
He also tested his lifts and hit an incline bench of 175lbs for 2. Seems worth it.
People literally giving themselves mental and physical breakdowns for a bet and views - humanity is, in the words of my 16 year old “cooked”.
The more stupid stuff you do, or more edgy stuff you say, the more views you get. It’s all about profit and views as usual.
There’s manosphere influencers competing who’s going to be most misogynistic or racist imbecile. Other groups are having a contest who has most traumas or mental health issues, while third group is trying to figure out how to invent most niche sexual orientation possible.
Every time new treshold is found, the founder gets a nice increase of income by views, and it really does not matter if the revenue comes from fans or haters.
While there are some actually sincere content creators, I disdain social media and the culture it has created.
There does seem to be a thing with youth and test these days.
Anyone remember the misc the old bbing forums, well that has turned into a thing with some people not really lifting but obsessed with being lean and ripped and using stuff. Like imagine just doing BW exercises and using gear, all an appearence thing.
Speaking of something similar, my buddies younger bro is now 41 and I trained with him years ago. He had a big drug problem and while he was lean and shredded was not any “lifter” but he was using steroids. He has been living in a rehab center for some time, does not lift and still struggles with addiction. He was basically living like Jon Skywalker, steroids, recreational drugs but he wasn’t a SM influencer. Skywalker himself has went down hill. These are young guys too.
