18-Year-Old Jacked Bodybuilder Survives on Only Meat Diet

Can you live by only eating meat? The answer may be a yes or a no. However, American actor, Chuck ‘Kali Muscle’ Kirkendall, recently shared a video on his Facebook account, in which an 18-year-old bodybuilding sensation confesses to only eating meat. The young bodybuilder refuses to have any carbs and lives only on a meat-based diet. Is it safe? Doesn’t the body need other nutrients from veggies and more? There are many questions one might ask after watching the video.

Tristyn Lee shot to fame at 15, with his shredded physique. Since then he has been sharing his tidbits on his YouTube channel. Now, he is taking on the internet once again with his dietary preferences.

Why does the bodybuilding sensation only eat meat?

When asked about his diet, Lee talked extensively about his red meat regime. He said, “Not much chicken, mostly red meat. I’ll do fish like salmon and start eating stuff. No (vegetables), not right now. No carbs. It’s because I played soccer, so I did keto for like the endurance benefits, and then I kind of just carried it over into my bodybuilding training. I feel good.”

At Kali Muscle’s evident surprise, Lee explains how his body has gotten used to the diet over the last couple of years. However, the final call on the positive or negative effects of this food habit can be only determined by a nutritionist.
