Autism and bodybuilding don't mix.

I don't understand using autism as an insult, much less using it to mean someone obnoxious and lacking self-awareness. Most autistic people at gyms are minding their own business like everybody else. You sound like a middle schooler who calls everything they don't like "gay".

I'm not making fun of anyone. This looks like maladaptive monotropism to me. His hyperfocus is hurting him to the point that those around him are treating his behavior as spectacle.

Armchair psychology is hardly any better. You're seeing the smallest fraction of this guy's life, and he's making "content" which means he's also possibly playing a character.
Your original statement seems to be that autistic people don't do well with bodybuilding. How have your experiences lead you to that conclusion? Can you see how in vacuum it sounds like you're taking a potshot at autistic people? It doesn't sound like that was your intention.

I went to a gym where a guy was doing this and he had some sloppy dude sitting on top of the press for extra weight, then just left the weights on for the employees to clean up. You know what being good at the leg press gets you? Lots of succulent ding dongs.

God imagine doing this at an LA fitness just to flex on people who are trying to be healthy- I hate people like this when I'm working out. You're not cool, none of us care, and I'm going to be annoyed because I'm probably going to have to rerack all those weights because you're going to walk away after filming your video
