From muscle magazines and supplement ads to TikTok physiques and biohacking, fitness culture has changed—but why are we still arguing about the basics? Robert takes a candid trip through decades of fitness marketing, exploring how unrealistic expectations, social media sound bites, and increasingly open conversations about steroids have reshaped the way people approach training.Robert explains why an advanced bodybuilder’s routine may have little to do with your needs, how research and coaching experience can inform individual adjustments, and why constantly switching programs can keep you spinning your wheels. With his signature no-filter perspective, he brings the conversation back to consistent training, realistic goals, and progressively challenging yourself. The trends will keep coming. Your strength still needs building.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.
