Gym Posts

People at the gym found their way into the lime light. The hidden background message to try and inspire people is at a new level again. People use their platforms to make themselves more famous and pretend to make others satisfied. When in reality, do others actually react positively to a body post of someone else.

This picture below is of a gym model named David Laid. As you can see he enjoys posting about himself and defined himself as someone who inspires and helps others towards their goals. I don’t know anyone who would look at this post and be interested and working out more. Jealousy is the most common attribute someone can get out of this because the multiple shirtless posts this man has created, shows a common ground of show boating.

David is someone who gets a lot of credit for his fitness and there has been talks with him about using steroids, but he says he is all natural and does not use supplements. This could go either way, but someone with a body like that, is not realistic for the common person. People in society are all on social media, so when these types of posts pop up, Body dysmorphia and jealousy are super common.
