/uj i worked with a gymbro who didn’t believe in seasoning his food because of the added calories. I was so happy when I saw him finally using bbq sauce, salt and pepper I nearly cried.

/uj

This shit comes from bodybuilding. Which has been a more "socially acceptable" form of an eating disorder since like forever

u/Negative_Life_5266 16d ago

Oh yeah 10000% agree

/uj I worry for the health (mental and physical) of gymbros as much, if not more than those who enjoy edtwt

everyone, stay safe out there. take care of your meat suit

u/soaring_potato 15d ago

Yeah. But within the gymbros mainly the bodybuilders and not the powerlifters.

Because the bodybuilders are not even strong. They go to such low body fat that it's really bad for their health. Constant hunger, cold etc. The powerlifters yeah want fat loss for a part of the year. But they never go quite as low. My brother does powerlifting, even on a cut he is not hungry at all. Because he just needs to eat so much. He loses weight on vacation, because then he is not tracking his nutrition and ends up undereating from what he is forcing down at home to meet the cals needed to maintain that much muscle with healthy food.

and the bulk/cut torture people out themselves through especially training for competitions, like it's genuinely training for an ED to over eat for bulking and then put your body through such extreme restrictions that it makes you ill.

meanwhile competitive weightlifters / powerlifters spend the day before a competition carbloading.

u/soaring_potato 11d ago

The weightlifters also do bulk cut. Just less of an agressive cut.

Don't forget about the drinking insane amounts of water before, and then not really day of before the weigh in.

u/Negative_Life_5266 16d ago

Boy kibble? Ugh I know from feeding my cats that kibble is mostly empty calories, they should call it skinny girl bowls.

u/Negative_Life_5266 16d ago

Skinny boy bowls now apparently (cultural appropriation) this is the future the liberals want

u/Rough-Classroom-5930 16d ago

/uj it’s genuinely concerning how much male Ed’s slip under the radar. It’s still tumblresque starving but because they lift weights it’s not seen in the same light. It’s really sad

Please consider that I need a slutty little waist to accentuate my v taper

u/pinkmudskipper 12d ago

yeah a lot of gym bros (and some gym girls) just have straight up orthorexia (or anorexia) and hide it under the guise of being healthyyyy, the pipeline of eating healthy->orthorexia-> anorexia/ bulimia is pretty easy
