If it’s a lie, then we fight on that lie.
I've been in the gym since my teens, 40 now. 
He's absolutely right. Once social media got mixed in with the gym, the shyt went completely downhill.
Luckily I've only see these influencers maybe twice a month. They usually don't stick around. One or two videos then they're ghosts.

He’s right. Gym culture was high-jacked a long time ago. It hasn’t been about health and self improvement for years now.
Depends what gym you go to. You gotta find a small semi-dingy gym that has the equipment you need. Most of those gyms, you won't see the corniness. Just men and women with earbuds on getting in, putting in work and getting out. Stop going in trendy big gyms.
But let's keep it real, a lot of people go to the gym to be social. Gym is the new club. And that's cool. I think all the things mentioned in the video can be avoided if you really want to avoid it.

Gym culture is absolutely corny and I say this as someone that goes 6 times a week.
I personally know a relatively known competitive bodybuilder and a lot of the people in that world are completely lame. They have nothing going for them other than muscles so their whole life becomes validated by their existence in the gym.
Taking roids (damn near everyone is on them) and working out obsessively doesn’t make you qualified to give life advice or make you a main character but that’s how most of them view themselves.

lol how do we know he's not that loser that got a 6 pack and is tryna give life advice 
nikka lowkey sounds like he's hatin'
i'd say the smaller gyms (like the crossfit/competition joints) definitely have their own culture and shyt that you gotta watch out for, but as a far as the franchised/big gyms i go to, i just do wtf i gotta do and leave lol none of that shyt he's complaining about should really matter in that sense
as far as influencers, if mf'ers wanna fall for the okie-doke, that's on them

Life is absurd. Lean into it.
Everyone is about building their personal "brand" now. Going to the gym high-key has always been about aesthetics as much as it was about being healthy, but add the trifecta of how I can use this to up my social cache to also do some other shyt, it kinda gotta corny.
Moreover, as @Turbulent said, the gym is high-key the new club now. And as @EA said, the dudes and women who are hardcore about it, are fairly lame. I really wouldn't want life advice from them.
Honestly, i thought about using it to get some social media clout, but I'm just not really wired to do that. Love the gym to be healthy, look good, and relieve my stress. Everything else is extra. If I never get 100k followers, so be it.

Yall done tore all the bottom of ya shoes w/me!!!
The use of the word corny has been abused and just needs to be deaded at this point.......
It wasn't back in the day either...if you go to golds or any of those lifting gyms.
Brehs were not in there for "health" at all
