King suggests that the workout regime is based on principles that can assure great results. Progressive overload, the biological law of accommodation and shake muscle fibers are some of the benefits of Shake Weights, the icon noted. However, his post also contradicts his earlier endorsement, as he suggests that you don’t need “fancy gym equipment” as your body in itself is a “goddam machine.”

According to the influencer, one can add pull-ups, squats, lunges, burpees, and broad jumps to the routine. Even though such advice of his had impressed his fans, the Shake Weight endorsement seems to have backfired.
