One of the official YouTube channels of a bodybuilding fan page, @aegfitness8047, shared a video of Sam Sulek, where he was seen talking about why most people suffer from body dysmorphia. He enlightens the fitness community by giving them a firmer grip on reality.

He said, “I think a lot of people, let’s say relatively advanced lifters, they’re gonna see themselves pumped up and in their mind, that’s their new normal – them fully pumped, their peak veiniest, fullest, freakiest state. That’s what they take as their new normal.” He goes on to say that the pumped-up version is generally bigger than the natural one.

Sulek adds, “When they f**king walk around all day. I look like shit now. Oh no, I feel extra small. When you’re pumped, that’s when you’re bigger than normal. If you consider this your normal, you have to fix that sh*t quick,” Sulek advises. Often, Sam Sulek himself has been demeaned by several bodybuilders because of his massive physique at a young age.
