When Does Healthy Fitness Become Unhealthy? The Dark Side of Teen Bodybuilding #Shorts

The gym has been a sort of therapy for me, and when I go there, I can turn the world off for an hour or two and just focus on pushing the weight. Going to the gym regularly also teaches discipline, hard work, consistency, and perseverance, all of which can help in every area of your life.

That's not to mention the obvious health benefits of exercise. I go to the gym regularly, so I don't want you to think of this video as me advocating for people to stop trying to build their dream physique or, even worse, not exercise. Not at all.

All I am saying is that we need to have some discussion about how much is too much. When does something healthy become unhealthy? A report from the Center for Countering Digital Hate, a technology watchdog group, found that social media users in the US between the ages of 14 and 18 have viewed videos with hashtags related to steroids up to 420 million times in the last 3 years alone.

These are kids that haven't really finished puberty yet, being exposed to such harmful substances.
