“Fitness is the new black” is sometimes heard saying

If you make a comparison with 10 years ago, you will see an increase of no less than 23%. The figures are around 37 billion dollars, which also means that people are also concerned about their health. An encouraging thing, although the biggest problem is the wrong reason why people exercise. Just take a look at social media where new health products are being promoted.

Do you already understand where I want to go? Think so hey, all beautiful people in minute clothes, perfect bodies with the coveted six pack of abs and a nice torso. It all looks very nice, and also very sexy. And if one wants to know a truth that is as old as time itself, sells sex or sexy. The sellers don't actually sell fitness related items, but just an image.

A vision of what a perfect body can look like. Eat what those models eat, train like they train. In the end, if you are similar to them and also have such a perfect looking body, well then you will be the pearl in the oyster. In fact, this is a nice message, except it is the wrong message. Good health is not the same as a perfect body, these are two completely different things.

A perfect body is not the look but the inside

One would think that one is healthy if one has such a body, nothing could be further from the truth and yet not 100% certainty. Supplements in the form of drugs, growth hormones, insulin, steroids, are really a big problem in the fitness industry. Those perfect bodies that are seen online, on social media and in advertising often make use of this. And I can tell you that this kind of supplements causes irrevocable harm to the body. The abuse of anabolic steroids can lead to serious and certainly permanent health problems such as: kidney problems or kidney failure, liver damage and tumors, an enlarged heart, high blood pressure, and even changes in blood cholesterol levels. All things that increase the risk of stroke or heart failure, even in young people.
