TikTok Fitness has a DARK SIDE | Blogilates, Liver King & More!

- Fitness TikTok has been the cause of a lot of problems online, from misinformation to fake natty creators. With the likes of Blogilates, Liver King, and many other creators booming on the platform and arguably contributing to the problem, I figured I should probably give my take on the whole situation.

Will anybody ever beat Austin?!
Maybe you should try one day.
I have my suspicions about you two 🤔🤨
One day
Love reading Austin's comments all the time,
And love listening to you Harry
You are the light,in the dark side of fitness
Great video
@@LilaCreates me too🧐
I know people credit blogilates for getting people into fitness but it feels like she’s constantly in these and other videos about misinformation from fitness influencers. Any credit she earned earlier in her career has completely gone down the tubes imo
It's a shame when this happens!
She started posting follow-along, no-equipment, short workout videos on UA-cam when very, VERY few people were. She is cutesy and projects an extremely bubbly, positive, "you go, girl!" personality, plus really clickbait-y titles (á la that Chloe (?) Ting girl, not sure about her name). All that is what made her popular among the earlier YT crowd, not any sort of real fitness expertise. Now that real information is more easily accessible, many of her followers (who, let us not forget, are now possibly as much as a decade older) are realizing that hers is BS. Which I am quite convinced is why she left YT, even though she has millions of subscribers. The TikTok crowd is extremely young, so they are easier to reel in.
It was kind of sad to see young women on Blogilates' video about a short "weightless arm workout" being like "how long until you see results?" You will pretty much never get results from "workouts" like that
@@peanutforever2191 You are 100% right. I was an OG follower of hers from 2009 and the cutesy bubbly thing was fun in my 20s but now in my 30s, I just can't. Not only has her content not matured at all, it has devolved in quality of information and quality of workouts. She has painted herself into a corner a bit because soon she will be too old for the TikTok crowd and she will have lost her older followers. Such a shame.
@@esoteriquefille the cutesy bubbly grinds on my nerves endings… I just can’t with her and the BS she spews
Not only is the first girl doing a free weight movement on a bosu ball; she’s doing it on the platform. This is a huge trend in online fitness and it literally says on the packaging of all bosu balls to NOT. STAND. ON. THE PLAFORM SIDE. It’s a safety issue.
THANK YOU!
It's mad!
I appreciate how you’re so stinking positive. Media can be so critical of others or encourage us to be critical of ourselves, but you’re using your platform to spread helpful information and positivity. So happy to see this channel grow each week. Yay you, Harry!
I shall always try my best
I used to workout to change my body, I now workout because it helps me to keep my mental health stable (I have 3 MH diagnoses), and encourages a healthy structure around work, a masters degree, and time for myself. It’s so frustrating to see so many fitness creators making content that only tailors to the goal of aesthetics, when not everyone has that goal
I feel this completely! You’ve gotta do what’s best for you :)
7:35 "You are enough. You are more than enough." How did you know I needed to hear this today!
I've got you
The portion around 7:30 where you kept saying that you are enough almost made me cry in a good way 😭 I feel like so much of what we see in media claims to be inspirational, but in the end, what it can often do is just make us feel terrible about ourselves. I've been working out hard for years and have been feeling discouraged recently that I still don't have the "perfect body," but I'm working on appreciating my healthy self as I am. Thank you for being so real and encouraging!!!
I agree, 100%! You're doing great and I appreciate you
The "you are enough" message was so, sooo wholesome ❤️. I think everybody needs to hear that from time to time.
On a different note, it is so shocking to see that people start using PEDs at such a young age (looking at the "sarmsgirl"). How do their parents / care takers let them do this? Thanks for your input on this topic, I really hope your message will get teenagers to rethink their decisions.
As always: thank you, Harry for yet another lovely, funny & high-quality info packed video 💪!
The smiley face hat looks awesome on you too 😎 you need a beach + sea / ocean in the background and a good cocktail and you are all set 😉
They do! It's a shame but very common, even before TikTok, sadly. Most aren't aware! Thank you so much
I saw a comment about Justina Ercole, and I agree, please talk about her. Her stuff is solid.
Yes!
I love her!
Looooove her
On it!
Today was my first day back at the gym since the pandemic started! I've been really nervous and pushing it off for months because I feel really insecure about basically having to start from the ground up/working in front of more dedicated/'fit" individuals, I really appreciate you and the way you discuss things and how much you show support for everyone regardless of discipline or experience level
Congratulations on taking the first steps back! I was anxious too, but am just really enjoying my workouts again. I missed it. Good luck 👍🏾
I’m really nervous about it too. Still sticking to home workouts-though I know going to gym would mean having more time to workout-as it takes a while to set all my stuff up at home. I hope I get there too! Well done to you tho! 👍
Hey! I'm proud of you, Kira
Seeing the bosu girl's knees makes me feel for her pelvic floor :( this is dangerous and needs to be adressed, so great that you know how to call it out nice and clear Harry :)) lovely hat and it suits you! Personally I would look like a potato in it, a potato that fell over.
It's shocking to see! Potatoes are great :)
Harry is out here making me cry at the club 😭🥰 you are such a treasure. Whoever has you in their life is lucky to call you family/friend.
You're watching UA-cam at the club?! Thank you so much
Don't mind me, just bingeing your content because you're so pure 😂
Amazing information. I love love the information you are giving. thank you 😊
Thank you :)
😁I absolutely love your messaging. This is a great reminder to positive self talk. Keep up these great videos
Thank you
I love your videos so much! Your knowledge and critique is amazing. I learn so much 🤗
Thank you so much, Becca
Thank you for the encouragement today. I sooo needed it! You never know who or how you are going to help. 👏👍
Of course! Thank you, Mary
Thank you for the wholesomeness you bring to this platform ❤️ I've had a shitty day, but you always manage to make me smile, so thanks 😊
ily
Seeing a new video has made me really happy! Got myself a treat with breakfast tomorrow 🥰
I hope you enjoyed it! :)
Yes! Thank you for the video!
It's my pleasure :)
Love your videos!!! I’ve been a personal trainer for 6 years and into working work for many years prior to that. I don’t come across many folks in the fitness social media space that really catch my interest at this point…there’s just so much crap! But I’ve been binging your videos-so refreshing. Would love to see you do a bit of an “about me” or “Q&A” but no pressure bc I know that’s a lot more personal and maybe not your thing. Either way, great work 🤍
PS…I have a big head too 😹
Thank you so much! I'm actually doing a Q&A in the next couple of weeks, so hit me with any questions you may have :) You can get as personal as you'd like, I don't mind!
Love the motivational and inspiring words you are saying in your videos too! 🙌
Thank you
Hi Harry!
Love this video! I can’t believe the “Bosu” BS is still a thing… when I was still a gym rat (workout at home now) I saw someone drop a dumbbell on their foot why doing a “Bosu” ball “challenge”…
Love the hat!
It blows my mind too! Thank you :)
Great video! Thank you for keeping it scientific and body positive 💚
Thank you
The hat is super cute on you! I didn't watch the last video (had some very busy days & had already seen Natacha's original video), am back for this one and must say I really missed this unique combo of quality information, kindness, humor, and your voice + accent (which I find really calming)! Great video, Harry, you too are more than good enough and we all appreciate you and your videos so very much!
Thank you! I'm glad to see that you're back :) ILY

subscribed!! this video made me smile because of your supportive comments about body positivity. i suffer from an exercise addiction and anorexia athletica and you are one of the best content creators for facts and tips as well as support. thank you so much!
( plus your hats give me so much joy)
Thank you so much! I’m sorry that things aren’t great but I hope you know my DMs are always open if you need somebody
“you are more than enough” needed to hear this mate, thanks! loving the content
I've got you! Thank you
Thank you for your positively. "Do what's best for you ". So refreshing to hear on UA-cam
Always
This video made me want to comment under literally everything you do just to boost your visibility. Wow. You should have milions of subscribers and be shown to every teenager concerned by their body image. Love your work.
You are too kind! Thank you
thank you Harry for being sooo positive . thank you for the good information you spread . really my fav youtube channel so far 😍💜💜
You are too kind, Sonia!
thank you it's only the truth 😄🌷🌷
Your find movements that you're comfrotable doing really resonated with me today. Got the bad kinda good news today that I do need have a back surgery. So I'm gonna do all the corset strengthening and general exercise that I can do before surgery. After is gonna be a really dull, boring and repetitive 2 months of recovery before I can even start to introduce my own regime to it. Herniated disc so the docs get to play around with my spine which makes me nervous.
I’m sorry to hear this! Have you been to a good physio? I herniated my L4/L5 some years ago and managed to avoid surgery thanks to my physio :)
@@TFNL I did at the beginning of the pain starting. It's been about 4 months now. My doc was of the opinion that there was a theoretical possibility of this resolving without surgery. 😂
I have pretty strong pain and other reactions in my left leg, that hernia is compressing on my nerves. I'm in the 2nd highest priority group waiting for surgery.
Really love your videos, your contents are always so useful and informative! Also love your personality and how mindful and kind you are 😊
Hope your channel will keep growing as you’re truly a great discovery to my mind 🤩
Thank you so much!
Your videos are not only informing, but uplifting as well.
I hope so! Thank you :)
2:40 ooooof 😖 just because something is more difficult does not mean it's better
Facts!
I think there are always buttons to push and gears to adjust before PEDs. One of the biggest appeals in training for me is how gard and grindy it gets and how much the returns diminish., simply because not everybody even gets to this point.
Keep up the goodies, Harry
❤
I agree! Thank you
Great video! Im not a tiktok user myself, but hearing about young people promoting PEDs is worrying. AND standing on the wrong side of bosu balls!
Thank you! It's madness
Thanks for the cardio entertainment. I think a lot of time people trying to lose weight are in a deficit their expectations are just higher than they should be. I’m lifting and tracking macros and losing 3lbs a month. People expect to lose that in a week which just isn’t rational. They need to give it time.
I've got you! I think this is probably fair
you seem to be such a lovely person! keep up the amazing work :)
Always trying to be better! Thank you :)
My dude, you're way too wholesome ❤
I appreciate you
@@TFNL I appreciate you too ^^
The videos where you start off just looking so excited are usually my favorite and this one is no exception.
Derek's video on Sarms Girl was brutal, but great. James Linker also covered her in one of his as well.
I love that Liver King goes on about 'ancestral' eating, but I'm pretty sure modern human ancestors weren't supplementing.
Ugh, Blogilates again. I'm so sorry your poor eyes can't get away from her cancer.
Here she is!
@@TFNL Running behind today, please forgive me.
@@b3thamphetamine Always!
@@TFNL You're my favorite
i would love to hear your take on some of the psychological effects of PEDs
ps thank you for saying liver king isn’t natty
I think this is a 10/10 idea! Gotta spread the good sauce :)
Keep up doing what you do, I absolutely adore you.
And I adore you!
Aww the bucket hats so cute!
It is!
First of all, great content.
Second,..dude your voice, it's perfect...if you ever narrate an audiobook, let me know please
Thank you! Haha, I didn’t think my voice was anything special :)
Second this! Would definitely love to listen to some of my favorite books in his voice
I was always taught/told about your body storing fat due to starvation mode. It has always made me paranoid about eating too much or too little. Especially being someone who is only 5 foot, well, it means my caloric intake is already rather small, so I am one who has to go below 1500 to be in a decent calorie deficit. This helped ease my mind even more as I am on my journey to find that perfect number. I feel like a broken record but again, thank you! Also, you are truly taking me back to my childhood with that bucket hat, giving me those 90s vibes, though mine was white😅Take care!
I like to increase my cardio to create a deficit before I start dropping my calories. Doing it this way allows you to eat more food for longer during your cutting phase.
@@b3thamphetamine I tend to add 20min cardio onto my workouts each day. The problem is, I tend to go rather hard with my workouts (I do Sydney Cummings and push hard 😅) and I need proper rest time. So sometimes extra cardio isn't going to happen unless it is a walk 😊
@@Lexus15207 A walk is good exercise, too
Small changes as often as necessary! Thank you
@@b3thamphetamine no matter what speed you go, I find a walk super relaxing 😊
Ankle flexibility is an issue for me bc I broke my left ankle in multiple places a few years ago so it’s got tons of plates and screws…looks like a metal cage around my ankle on X-ray so I saw a tip on some channel talking about squat form and putting something under ur heels so I put a book under each now and it makes squatting much easier bc I also take a wider stance w/ toes pointing more outward. I can’t squat to depth rly otherwise w/o getting in a funky position.
Love you mate 😭💕
ily too! :)
*feels proud and accomplished when he said we reached like goal in the last video* 😂
It makes me happy! :)
I am having issues hitting depth in my squat, turns out its not my ankles which i thought, or the external rotation of my hips, its the internal rotation of my hips! Have issues internally rotating so my adductors aren't mobile so my lower back is stiff so my squat isnt to depth. So if you think you might have mobility issues, try your adductors too cause it could very well be an issue higher up.
Edit: also it could be you're trying to squat in a textbook way that's not fit for your body composition. My "normal" squat looks like a sumo squat because of my long legs and tiny torso. Also my hip joints. If i go on my toes, i can hit a full depth ski squat with my feet together and no issues - so yeah it seems like my ankles are the issue, but as soon as i go to shoulder width and my feet planted i cant get close to 90degrees. Basically, to circle back, lifting your heels could be a bandaid for weak mobility. I am learning this the hard way 🥵 Squat University has a great video on finding your squat and hip joint positioning. Goodluck!
Oh absolutely! There is no textbook form and many things could contribute to this. Band Aids aren't often sustainable :)
Doing anything with weights on a bosu ball or any kind of balance advice is ALWAYS a bad idea. Plus it has ZERO benefits🥴
FACTS!
Hi! As someone who is new to lifting, I have a few questions. I would really appreciate it if you could help me out :) My legs build muscle much easier than my arms, which makes progressively overloading much easier on the legs than the arm. How do I make sure I stay in balance, so that my legs don't look much more muscular than my arms? Should I train my legs less often, for example?
I also have the feeling that I find it more difficult to really train my arms to fatigue. After a while my arms just stop without me feeling that the muscle itself really can't do the movement anymore. In my legs I can feel muscle acidification etc and it hurts (in a good way!) but my arms seem to stop by themselves; how is that possible?? I also want to thank you for your informative videos, they really help me out a lot! :)
Legs will likely always be stronger/bigger, look at the anatomy of the muscles and it'll make more sense :) Prioritise the muscles you want to build most and then go from there (i.e., increase frequency, etc). When you feel you aren't able to move anymore, at the end of each set try adding 3 partial reps to help push those muscles a little beyond failure :) Thank you so much
Happy Monday!
IS IT HAPPY?!
@@TFNL I'm always happy.
Looking forward to the festive headwear...
I'll make it good!
Halfway to the like goal in the first 3 hours 👍🏻👍🏻
We love to see it! :)
@@TFNL heck yes we do!
Would love to hear your thoughts on April from Smalletics. Us petite gals want some gainz too! 🤗
Petite gal here to say gains are absolutely still possible regardless of height! I had never heard of April until a few weeks ago. Personally, I'm not a fan. 😕 It seems she just uses her height as a marketing tool. In comparison to some taller friends, my training is essentially the same and my calories actually aren't that far off from theirs to maintain my weight. I haven't found my height to be as problematic as she makes it out to be.
I don’t unterstand pointing out that she is petite. Quite unnecessary. Don’t need to milk everything
Yes, would love to hear your thoughts on there's validity in varying training style in response to a person's height.
@@lindadavid4403 because I am petite and she makes videos about being petite very specifically.
I shall gander! :)
It's a great day for a video upload, innit?
3 seconds too late 😢
Down with the kids
Just finished a cardio workout.
I respect it!
i’ve been watching your channel for quite some time now and just subscribed! Hopefully you’ll see this but i’ve recently achieved one of my goals to be able to do a chin up! I can do three with good form and want to improve to five but I just can’t seem to get past three. I train upper body and practice fairly often but I have not been seeing any progression in my chin ups. What do you recommend I do to help with this? Thanks
Hi, I'm seeing this! Thank you so much for supporting the channel
Would love to be your friend, your videos are making me feel really positive
That hat looks good on you man
Thank you :)
i’d love to hear your opinion on growingannanas! :)) love your videos

Austin beat me to it!
I wish you had a podcast!! :(
It might be in the works!
So I know blogilates has been peddling out a bunch of false information, but there is a video she made that I've been curious about. She recommends using a booty band for pushups if you lack the strength to do a full body pushup, but how useful is that really? Does that really work to help build up strength or is it another gimmick?
This is actually legit and was first made popular by Mark Bell, when he released his Slingshot some years ago :)
@@TFNL oh, that's interesting and I might use this technique. Thanks for the answer
"You are enough". To be honest, sometimes I'm a bit too much :)
Never too much!
Speaking of dead glutes, i recently lost a bit of weight (not much just about 5kg) and basically have no booty left. My back basically just goes straight down to my thighs and jeans look like theyre melting in that area lol
I feel this!
👏👏👏keep going❤
Always!
Can you do a video about Jessica Olie’s workouts?
I shall add to the list :)
It would be hard to imagine anyone AT ALL working out, or really moving their body AT ALL, who wouldn't be in a calorie deficit at 1500 calories. I am 39 years old, 5'2" tall, and 125lbs and my BMR is 1307 calories.
I have no idea what mine is!
@@TFNL guessing a slight bit more than mine 🤣
Here for the algorithm
Thank you :)
I'm getting some groin pain on the right hand side during my squats, and feel like I'm pushing more with with my right due to strength imbalance. Any tips on how to address such imbalances?
Look for tight surrounding muscles and consider prioritising unilateral work (it’ll also help you identify how drastic the imbalance is)
Would elevating the heels be helpful for hip impingement? I mean the occuring upright position?
There’s one way to find out!
Hi again!
Hello!
My quads arent symmetrical. About 1/2 inch difference. I'm right handed but my right quad is smaller. Does that mean it's the weaker muscle? When unilaterally training, which muscle should I work first?
Which side fails first? That's the one to work first :)
Another great video! I tried to download your workout template but it's not working :( I've tried a few times
I just double checked and it seems to be working for me? You try this link here? tfnl.wetransfer.com/downloads/124d54ab6fb355e3a1737fc7eaff102520210830172719/c25540
Try copy/pasting into a separate browser maybe if it still isn't working.
Worked for me :)
I hope the link Austin commented works! :)
Is it ok to take a week off every 8 weeks or so of training? I’ve been lifting for 2 years, and I seem to hit a wall after 8-12 weeks and cannot bring myself to lift for a full week and feel really guilty.
Have you considered taking a deload week instead of a week off? :)
I'm so early today😊😊
Oh hey!
Is this "big head" thing a running joke? (Haven't watched all the videos yet.) If not, for your height an weight, your head seems perfectly proportionate and normal sized.
He needs a big head, otherwise his big brain wouldn't fit.
A bit of both haha! Thank you
I workout consistently now that the gyms are open and I'm making good strength gains but I always hit a ceiling bc I just don't eat enough. I've spoken to doctors about and its probably correlated to my depression so I'm taking steps to remedy that with therapy but at this point in time I just can't comfortably in a day eat more than 1300 cals which is not enough (I'm short and petite but even 1300 is taking the piss). Do you have any tips on eating more?
Watch Will Tennyson's "I lift but don't look like it" video, he is also one of no BS people and has some good advices 😊
@@Eviseek2 Thank you!!
This can certainly contribute, food is fuel! Have you tried drinking your calories? That helped me a lot when I wasn’t able to eat for similar reasons
Today during my workout I discovered I had made huge progress-but then in some horrible twist of fate I started getting really dizzy. I’ve been feeling lightheaded and dizzy for 2-3 hours now before it got better. Do you think that could’ve happened from overexertion? Or from creatine? Has anyone had any bad reactions to natural/tested supplements? I take beta alanine (since months now) with no bad reactions except some tingling. I take some BCAA and recently added creatine before and after workouts and I’ve been taking for 8 days. I’ve never felt so dizzy in my life-I’m REALLY hoping it’s something else (since I get migraines I’m hoping it’s a silent migraine) but had to ask-in case others had a creatine=dizzy reaction. (Please say I’m over-reacting cos I don’t wanna stop creatine!)
I think it might be best to speak to your doctor if possible :)
@@TFNL thanks! I did and it wasn’t connected to creatine-very glad
to hear-just a non-serious thing 😅
I'm a forensic toxicologist, used to be a pharmacologist in a clinical pharmacology lab. There's a reason why PEDs are banned substances in sports. Besides being performance enhancing, it is to hopefully deter people from using them. The side effects are worse for females than males because it harms our reproductive system which might lead to infertility and loss of menstruations. It's just not natural at all for women to take anabolics, our hormones are far more complicated than in men. As for men, the worse are Trenbolone and Boldenone. Do you know they are originally used as PEDs for race horses? It's 4 times more potent than testosterone and why? Because horses are 500kg. Imagine a human taking them. The side effects? 4 times stronger. Anyone who works in healthcare will know not to take them because we learn human physiology. So I really can't imagine people who have no knowledge in biology risking it. And the side effects do not always present themselves in short term, it may present itself when you are older.
By it's always people's choice, just have to learn to deal with the consequences. It's like playing Russian roulette.
The side effects being worse for women has been presented a lot! It’s definitely a risk that needs to be considered thoroughly :)
Please review koboko fitness!!
On it! :)
Obviously I’m hammering the bicepcurls at the gym (😅😎😰🤮) but as a female powelifter/powerbuilder I tend to be affected by society… I just want to share som light on a few things many might not think about when seeing this supinated push up. (I only speak on my experience and females I know. This might/will not be true for all women but it might for some… Just my experiences that are hard to phrase right in a YT-comment)
1. Many girls does not want big biceps, therefore dont want to push the bicepwork. For me it makes sence to not work hard on progressive overload during bicepwork if you don’t want big biceps. This might lead to not working the biceps at all…
2. I have met girls (not all girls obviously!) who absolutely hate bicepcurls. For multiple reasons. One that I relate to is that females stores more fat in their upper arms than males typically do which makes bicepwork kind of ”useless”. Muscledefinition is not as crisp on girls and because of that our arms may just look big whithout one knowing if its just fat or muscle+fat. Something that might trigger many girl for feeling fat. To get good muscledefinition as a girl for biceps means a really low bf-percentage which might not be worth it for many females… Other reasons might be bc bicepcurls are really boring… 😅
3. IF you want to push biceps (as a girl) this usually means working out next to the mirror by the dumbells (usually amongst the masculine men in tanktops…) and this can be a major trigger and really uncomfortable for many… A lot of women (again not all!) want to be in the corner of the gym and do bodyweight exercises and working the bicep in that regime is hard! It’s hard to train biceps in ”bodyweight non equipment exercises”… which brings me to my point…
I do not agree that this exercise is a good bicep builder. BUT for some women (who dont want big biceps/dont have any equipment/dont want to work out amongst the guys) this exercise might not be so bad? At least the biceps gets activated at all? For those women that might be a win?
I would NEVER use that exercise
as a bicep-builder and I dont think it should be advertised as such… BUT for the target audience it might be as good as it gets? Although if that is the case that sould be clearly stated in the post!
I dont know… That is not how I work out so I can’t say I understand the logic? Totally agree with it being misinformation! But just want to ad som nuance to the discussion about this exercise.. Im not saying its right and I’ll continue with my dumbell bicepcurls with grunting men around me but I’m also comfortable with that at the gym. That is not very common at the gym for young females though and I think that is understandable. This creates a audience for ”creative alternative solutions” in social media such as this… Good or not…
Btw, love the hat!
Of course! I respect this, but her description implies muscle building and this movement won't really do a lot for that. It's more the misinformation that gets to me but I can understand that it might well be as good as it gets, as you said! I appreciate you, your input, and your support
Alright Harry I got a question for ya! I’m not sure if you could help me out but if you could that would be amazing! I reverse dieted for a few months and am now maintaining my weight of 147 for 2 months now which is great! My plan is to incorporate mini cut cycles for 2-3 weeks with a deficit of 500 calories then going back to maintenance for 1-2 weeks. I’m hoping this we’ll prevent too much metabolic adaptation. What do you think of this plan and when can I start cutting again? I am getting impatient and I can’t wait to start losing again😂 thanks Harry!!
Oh and I reversed and been maintaining at 2300 cal lifting 4-5 days a week in a PPL split, walking 5 miles a day :)

You got it right :) For example, steroids, etc!
@@TFNL thanks!!
As someone who underate for years and didn't lose weight, I can't trust people who only promote a calorie deficit. There is way more to it. When eating too little, all foods started to upset my stomach, suffered with insane bloating, could not gain any muscle despite training regularly, insane mental fog, no focus, increased anxiety and depression etc. Now eating up to 1,5-2x and I'm down about a kilo and finally gaining muscle. Been eating like this (instuitive eating) for 1-2 years now and no fat gain. Metabolic adaptation is very real and whatever you like to call it, "starvation mode" is real in the sense that eating too little may not help you lose weight at all but instead you're body just hangs onto it, and as a result of decreased muscle mass you're body fat percentage increases.
I’m sorry that you had to go through that but I hope things are better now! Starvation mode and metabolic adaptation are two different things and starvation mode in the most commonly used sense doesn’t exist. This has been debunked for years :)
Hello everyone ♥️
Hello! :)
Hello Emma 😁
Hi emma
Doesn’t the creators of the bosu ball even state that you shouldn’t stand in the flat side?
Yes, on the package of every Bosu Ball, it says not to stand on the platform side for safety reasons.
They do!

What are PDs? The things he mentioned during the SarmsGirl segment
PEDs- Performance Enhancing Drugs
@@austinhenshaw2140 ohhhh okay that seems so obvious now lol. Thank you 😊
What Austin said! :)
On a more serious and a bit unrelated note, you said something in here that was super validating. As a budding content creator, I've had some thoughts lately about how others seem to be pumping out content a lot, and I post about once a week. I've been wondering, "do I need to post more? Am i doing something wrong? Should I do this to grow faster?" and what you said helped me remember why I create in the first place. I just want to make people smile, and create what I love. I totally agree that pumping out content isn't always necessary, and can sometimes be detrimental. Especially since I create music, which takes time, I don't want to bully myself into trying to just put out more just because I feel like I need to in order to "keep up". I think that would just hurt my creativity and my drive to make music, especially. The right audience will come. Thank you for the validation that focusing on the numbers and such isn't the most important thing, nor should it be. It doesn't always have to be fast or intense, like some influencers make it out to be. I really needed to hear that today ❤
Hi! Just dropping a comment for the algorythm.
Thank you!
Comment Question: you can restart your fitness journey with one person coaching you from the beginning. Who is it?
OH! You are on FIRE
My bet is that the hats are just abnormally small. Kind of like the supposed 3XL t shirts you occasionally come across that are somehow too small for you.
I appreciate your stance and willingness to discuss PEDs even though that's a route I don't think I'd pursue for myself. Considering the number of elite bodybuilders facing cardiac health problems lately, I hope people will do their research and more seriously consider long term side effects. The fact that SARMS and other PEDs are more 'normalized' on TikTok doesn't eliminate the risks.
CQOTW: how many bosu balls do you think you could pop in a minute by standing/jumping on them? 🙃
You send half of them to me! Thank you, Melissa (snake)
