“ How Can You Defend Protein?”: Bodybuilder Who Changed His Whole Life After a Near-Death Experience Busts Protein Myth in Bodybuilding

Kali Muscle is an internet sensation, with close to 3.5 million subscribers on YouTube. When the bodybuilder is not lifting weights, he can be found doing over-the-top challenges like fasting for 21 days or eating only watermelon. Initially, the vlogger indulged in high-calorie meals in his famous mukbang videos, but a health scare nudged Muscle to follow a healthy lifestyle. Earlier, the fitness enthusiast exposed the reportedly harsh truth behind protein powders.

Taking to Facebook, Kali Muscle posted a video that shows him talking about muscle-building food supplements that have become a necessary part of most people’s lives. Let’s dig deeper to learn more.

Proteins do not impress Kali Muscle

In the video titled “Protein Powder is Bad for You,” the actor does not mince words in hiding his displeasure over protein powders. Arguably, his words target those who think such powders are indispensable to a gym routine. The Youtuber said, “It’s funny when I talk like that the box on the internet in the comment section is defending protein powder and if they’ve got a company… and they’ve never been in the manufacturing building where they make.”

It seemed like Muscle could not understand the motivation behind chugging these supplements. The visibly offended Youtuber again asked, “How can you defend protein?” The bodybuilder then says that while it is claimed that these powders have 25 grams, in reality, they are not more than 2 grams. “I could sell protein powder…but why don’t I? Because I want to have some positive honor when I meet my maker,” added Kali, forcing his viewers to think hard on the subject. These days, the fitness sensation has been very vocal about living a healthy lifestyle after suffering a major health issue. In fact, he turned his life 360 degrees post the near-death experience. 

Muscle suffered a heart attack in 2021

In 2021, the actor went through surgery after finding out that his main artery was 100 percent blocked. The heart attack jolted Muscle to take his health seriously. Previously, Kali Muscle consumed food rich in fat and calories while taking steroids for bodybuilding. However, now, Kali disses fellow fitness influencers who act like experts. A few months back, Muscle exposed the truth about the food industry and influencers.

He unraveled the murky waters by saying that most people don’t know what they are saying. “You have all these influencers, I see telling people what they should eat. They shouldn’t eat this. How do they know? 99.9 of them haven’t even done an allergy test,” stressed the American model. 

Further, he advises against eating anything from the box and learning to read labels. This treasure trove of advice from Muscle helps educate the masses. Additionally, his health issue adds more legitimacy to what the reformed bodybuilder is saying now. Maybe it is worth hearing him once and taking the doctor’s advice.
