ATHLEAN-X FAKE WEIGHTS PART 2: WHY did he do it? (The Pressure of Being a Fitness YouTuber)

Описание: Athlean-X has been outed as using fake weights. You've probably already heard about it, and you've probably already formed an opinion on whether it's right or wrong. That's something you are entitled to. However, it's also important to look at WHY he decided to use fake weights in the first place: the fitness industry especially on YouTube can create a large amount of pressure.



Strength, leanness, size, appearance...it's tough. There's pressure to look a certain way, to lift a certain amount, to have a certain style of content, to kiss up to those with more subs and kick down.



By the way, Greg Doucette's latest video (published minutes ago) clears up his stance on it, and I agree with him. So you can disregard what I say about him in the beginning, when he said that the fake weights were OK.


I realize that this isn't my normal style of content. But if I see something wrong, and someone deleting comments off of their social media because the truth hurts THAT much...I'm going to keep saying the truth. The people deserve the truth. Liars need to be shown that integrity and doing the RIGHT thing, not the EASY thing, is ultimately what matters. Even if it hurts.



If he admits it, and apologizes, then it's over. It's done. But I'm not sure if he'll be able to do that.
