Do Jeff Cavaliere and Greg Doucette Promote Unrealistic Body Images? (Body Dysmorphia: Leanness)
Are modern fitness influencers like Jeff Cavaliere of AthLEAN-X and Greg Doucette directly or indirectly causing body dysmorphia, particularly in young men? As I coach I see body dysmorphia a LOT. I get people who are in the 99th percentile of leanness (14%) thinking they are FAT! I see people who are trying to maingain under 10% bodyfat and making zero progress in the gym. Leaner isn't always better. Being mid teens, high teens or even low 20s in bodyfat is fine. That might even mean having ZERO ABS. I know...crazy to think about but it's true.
