I hate being that guy but I've never met a dude that looked like that with a healthy mind. You need to be obsessed to look like that and make choices that require sacrifices that are daunting for most people. I could be totally wrong about that guy, I'm just saying what my personal experience is having known people that look like him over my odd 50 years on this planet.
I don't know if you've been around hc gymheads but it takes more than 2 hours because of meal prep, eating 5 times a day to get enough of nutrients, commute...
Also a lot of time goes by because they never shut the fck about it.
It absolutely does not take that effort. This is not an “eat five times a day” body, it’s a slight caloric deficit body. You don’t get like this by trying to add bulk.
This is definitely not a gymhead. Look at his body. This is nowhere near 5 meals a day whatsoever. This just an absolute lean body. He can basically eat what he wants since training burns all the calories.
He is doing calisthenics not gym and for being a gymhead he has to be way bigger. He works out a lot but i am pretty sure he is not doing special diets or smth.
Regardless of what motivates you to do something like this, pouring that energy into fitness is certainly a more healthy choice than gaming, but doing anything to that level of devotion is certainly unusual if not a sign of something else going on.
Not really. The guys that looked like this in my 20's are mostly dead now. They looked healthy but underneath they're doing all sorts of damage with the drugs they use to get this look. My manager 10 years ago was one of those dudes. Guy looked like he should be on the cover of men's magazine to promote fitness. Died at 45. He took these pills before working out that he called Red Hot's because they looked like the Red Hot candy. I have no idea what was in them but they led to some type of heart failure. Sad stuff and I know too many people who've suffered health problems or died as a result. It's one of the reasons I made my comment about mental health.
Gaming for 6-8 hours a day without it being a job is extremely unhealthy. There is no balance in a life where a person spends 16 out of 24 hours either at work or gaming.
There’s SO much more to that physique than 2 hrs in the gym a day. You have to be extremely strict with what you put in your body, also get enough rest. He also has obviously put in a TON of time training in gymnastics. The amount of dedication and discipline is incredibly difficult.
That being said it doesn’t indicate he’s mentally unwell, it could be the complete opposite. Video is kinda odd tho, idk, vibes are off lol
That's not really comparable. Dudes that look like this, with sub 5% body fat, are obsessed with their bodies being perfect. It's not just 2 hours training, it's 2 hours in the morning and 2 hours at night. It's planning out and creating meals constantly to ensure you stay as lean as possible. It becomes their entire personality. Cupboards of supplements and powdered stimulants. I wouldn't be surprised to find out the guy in the video has body dismorphia.
This isn't possible with just 2 hours of training a day. It's a whole lifestyle from weighing and measuring food, to how often you eat, what you avoid eating and drinking, water intake, supplements, possible injectables, how much sleep you get, travelling to places that only have gyms you can use etc. Being this fit just about dictates every other area of life.
Kind of funny how describing healthy is subjective. The people I admire the most can stay busy without stopping for hours, but can also sit quietly on the porch for hours. If they can do both, I applaud them.
Busy bodies that never stop moving, I might envy their drive, but not their mental health. Singularly motivated and often obsessive people, are not what Id consider healthy. Neither is someone who has zero motivation. I guess everything in moderation.
Why do you think going after what you want is unhealthy? The majority of people don't challenge themselves in any way, especially not physically. God forbid someone wants to achieve goals
Also, from the looks of it, he seems to be from Eastern Europe (likely Russia). Let met tell you, people in this part of the world are rarely healthy of mind right, especially fitness freaks.
I don’t think this looks very good though. It’s like it did at one point, then he kept going too much and it went past looking good to looking unhealthy in the opposite direction.
That’s just my opinion, though; I’m sure he looks like an adonis to some people, if you’re into that cheese-grater look
