The purpose of this video is not to hate on him, but showcase how certain people use body positivity as en excuse for telling other people that they should give up. It's obviously not everyone, but rather than using acceptance as an excuse I think it's important to help motivate each other for positive improvement without having to be mean about it.

A strong muscular physique is not only pleasing to the eye, but it also resembles hard work, dedication, and patience.
Work hard brothers, it will pay off.

Body positivity is a concept to feel confident about who you are, not an excuse to be lazy and eat garbage

Yesterday I was feeling to skip my workout and procrastinate. But then I thought "Maybe I'm wanting to skip workout right now but I'll surely feel better after workout". Thankfully I persisted and felt amazing after working out.
We need to be committed to our physical, mental, financial and spiritual growth.

"It's important to remember that no matter what you do, you will never be able to impress everyone so you should atleast try to impress yourself." This line is very true and not just in the context of this video. Thanks for saying these very important words.

that guy was successfully manipulated into becoming a worse version of himself by people who find reassurance in their own lack of discipline. i hope bro wakes up and sees the light once again.

Genuinely if you ever feel like giving up just imagine how much more you're gonna love yourself in the future, thaz what keeps me going and stops me from eating too much junk food

Im a woman, and idk why but i also find it very attractiv when a guy have a chubby stomach. A little one.
But this is only objectiv. Its so much more seeing people who wants to lives healthy.

btw he didnt stop working out, he just started eating everything he wanted

People liked him better because they drag him down to their level. People will resent you when you do not make excuses to achieve what they have not even tried but deep down want. Remember that.

I started working out 2 years ago not to impress anybody other than myself it was really hard in the beginning because I didn't have the encouragement of others but once I discovered that consistency was key I begin to really enjoy it and now I can't skip one day without at least doing some push ups or some exercises, I'm more in tune and confident about my body and nobody could stop me and say you don't need to look a certain way, I actually gain more confidence and charisma than when i wasn't in shape.
It's really sad to see someone that have that level giving up, I guess he was doing it for the wrong reason that's why.
But never you can tell other people to give up because of your own failure.
Keep it up guys the road is long but there's light in The way out.

Im mind blown over the comments and encouragement this guy gets to gain fat. It seems every other picture is do you prefer me fat or do you prefer me shredded and I’m thinking why can’t you just pick somewhere in the middle.
But even at his fattest its not like he is fatter then the avg guy

I have always been naturally skinny but recently I started gaining a bit of weight due to PCOS and so I started going to the gym to maintain a healthy weight ( my condition will worsen if I gain weight)
The gym was nothing like what I imagined it to be . I was hesitant and intimidated at the thought of going to gym but after going there it's my feel good place. I imagined the gym to be full of narcissists and shallow people but everyone there is so friendly, motivated ❤️ Seeing everyone around me working hard to be in a better shape and to be strong and healthy really motivates me and made me realize that going to the gym is not just to look good but it's to be healthy and strong and to be the best version of you ❤️ I feel so much stronger and confident in life and being strong physically also helps to be strong mentally. The gym helps me cope up with my depressive tendencies too ❤️

This is what happened to me. I wasn't super in shape, but I put in the dedication to lose 30 pounds and loved how I looked. I am 5 2" and went from 160 to 130, from a size 10 in jeans to a size 8. It was the most confident I felt in my adult life, ever. I beat my eating addiction and I was just loving life and being able to wear whatever I want, and just feel good in general.

Only I got endlessly skinny shamed to the point of gaining it all back. I became obsessed with my self image because other people managed to convince me that I looked sickly skinny....at a size 8 in jeans? I couldn't even squeeze into a size 6, but somehow people thought I was way too skinny. Even my husband was skinny shaming me saying he liked me better at 160. His family straight up harassed me. Dad's at the school were giving their unwanted opinions to me saying I looked better before, lost my body, blah blah blah. I heard one last rude comment and that was it. I started binging and gaining weight on purpose. Now I haven't been able to lose it for going on three years now, and am now at 170. My double chin is huge, my love handles are huge, my stomach is huge, and I just feel really fat, but everyone around me says I am not even fat. Everyone tells me I look good now. It's funny how nobody says anything negative now but when I lost the weight everyone lost their minds. Now I live in men's T-shirts and have a closet full of pretty clothes I can't wear. I call them my "goal clothes" but may not ever reach that goal now. I keep saying I will lose the weight again but just can't manage to stick to it long term.

I want to sarcastically thank everyone who skinny shamed me, they got what they wanted! Now I am fat again. 😤

This just shows how important it is to surround yourself with the right people. The Gym is the perfect place because everyone has the same reason to be there (with different motivations sometimes)

He used to post great fitness videos. He was a very athletic person and a football enthusiast. It's so sad to see what he has become.
