Fitness influencer and bodybuilding enthusiast Greg O’Gallagher is a prominent figure in the online fitness world. A veteran influencer, Gallagher has amassed over two million combined social media followers. While he has landed in controversy for some of his fitness takes, it hasn’t affected the self-proclaimed real-life Bruce Wayne’s popularity. Earlier, Gallagher, better known as Kinobody, shared a clip where he voiced a valuable take on the fitness industry.

The bodybuilder uploaded a short video on Instagram where he spoke about the conventional wisdom about fitness. In the podcast clip, Kinobody spoke about preconceived notions affecting his journey. He also revealed how he challenged conventional fitness advice to build his dream physique.

Real-life Bruce Wayne explains ‘sacrificing’ one’s life for fitness?

The outlook toward fitness has evolved in recent years. However, conventional wisdom once dictated that people who wanted to build a physique had to sacrifice the joys of life.?“The fitness industry was not about balance it was really about sacrificing your life,” said Kinobody. The influencer said people thought they needed to have bland meals and sacrifice most luxuries.

“Let’s not go out and socialize much, let’s never have one glass of wine,” said Gallagher.?“The whole premise was like you’re gonna get in shape and life is gonna suck,” Kinobody added. He also suffered due to this outlook, but learned he could do things differently. He realized only professional bodybuilders require such sacrifice to build Olympia’s winning physique. However, that is not what the average person wants.

“What do we actually want to look like? It’s like when you see Brad Pitt,”?said Gallagher. So instead of working out hours in the gym and having a bland diet, he reevaluated his approach.

Like High-Intensity Training pioneer Mike Mentzer, Gallagher trained three days a week. Instead of a pro bodybuilder diet, he switched to a healthy but “enjoyable”?diet and utilized fasting. He also used this philosophy to help others.

Greg Gallagher carved his own path

Greg O’Gallagher appeared on the popular Fresh and Fit podcast in March 2022. The clip he shared earlier was taken from his podcast appearance. During the podcast, Kinobody shared there was “nothing in the fitness industry that spoke” to him. Before shunning conventional wisdom, the influencer also found out how limited the space was.

Gallagher said people specialized in certain disciplines and gave advice within their discipline. If someone wanted to lose weight, “there’s someone to follow for that.”?However, he entered the emerging space of influencers who promoted holistic fitness. Influencers like Kinobody helped others with bodybuilding, weight loss, and diet advice for overall improvement.
