"Bro Needs to Stop Doing Cardio and Start Eating"

This video is from victor.wembanyama1 on instagram. This video is about fitness edit motivation inspiration by a video of Victor Wembanyama basketball fitness exercise training.

[@Brekitdun]

He plays for one of the most renowned sports organizations in America, it's crazy that a bunch of internet people think they know better

[@notinservice7112]

He’s probably stronger than most of the people ragging on him for his physique too

[@R_A_3000]

​@@notinservice7112 Yeah a hand check from him would definitely knock most guy over.

[@mexagodtvg8937]

@@notinservice7112he definitely is

[@kairon5249]

He is 19 so pretty much fresh out of puberty. Given his height is body has been putting all its energy into growing and been neglecting muscles. Typically after someone stops growing they fill out their frame and put on more muscle. That guy wont look like this for very long (if he eats, that is)

[@F.R.E.D.D2986]

Everyone loves that 'gotcha' moment. That little bit of info to prove the other person wrong So, people often at the first instance to tell the other person that Why? Lots of reasons, some could be genuine, or a insecurity, wanting to help, wanting to troll, being alone and trying to interact, no matter how that goes People will always think they know better, because they think they are smart, or know more. My guess is that, because of their lack of knowledge prevents a deeper questioning, i.e, does this person already know this?

[@Vronize]

"Bodybuilding is not the only sport" triggers these people so well that I enjoy

[@MrHadane]

What triggers me is people on both camps religiously preaching that one is incompatible with the other. While in reality they compliment each other.

[@johubify]

Its insane to me how insecure people have gotten. Their are professions besides bodybuilding and not everyone wants to become big. Being fit and athletic is the main thing, getting shamed over it is ridiculous

[@ExecutionSommaire]

Ironically the BB industry calls itself "fitness" when actually the quest for monster mass and one digit body fat make you extremely unfit

[@lemonke5341]

Its the internet its full of negative ppl to vent out their emotions

[@steviejrr]

he ain't very fit, he's underweight.

[@nepu6373]

Yeah I only train for better cardio, I dont really care about bodybuilding

[@realdragon]

They would probably laugh at Eliud Kipchoge, a gold medalist winner in 2022 Olympics, for being skinny and "needing a burger" Tbh he looks like I could easily pick him up but first I would need to catch him and that's not happening

[@ScientObject40]

I'm not nearly as tall as him, yet I'm still tall enough to understand how hard it is to build muscle as a tall guy. Unless he eats an ungodly amount of food and trains specifically like a bodybuilder he most likely won't gain an enormous amount of muscle before a long time.

[@MyLegsAreKindaLong]

But when you start packing on muscle you will look way bigger and be hella stronger than the vertically challenged mfs. so there's that, don't be demotivated

[@DominikVall]

Agree, you need to train extremely more and train extremely more

[@overpoweredshots]

​@@DominikValllmao what

[@lennertcornette]

​@@overpoweredshotsyes, I'm 185cm tall and training 4 years. My buddy who started 3 years later and does same exercises had same gains in 1 year as me in 4. Not the strength but looks.

[@overpoweredshots]

@@lennertcornette that could just be genetics, or he ate more , nothing with height . I'm 190-191cm ish tho

[@JaskaranSingh-rq6cr]

No 1 Draft pick and the greatest prospect since Lebron he is not some random guy

[@cw442]

Accumulating mass at his height is a gamble. If he doesn't do it the right way or does it too much he will increase the risk of injury in basketball. So many examples of this. He's better off looking too skinny and having steady functional cardio and strength progress. As well his playstyle and basketball in general value cardio more than raw strength.

[@robcubed9557]

One problem is that basketball is semi-contact and involves a fair amount of lower body impact. He needs SOME mass to absorb the impact and preserve his joints.

[@DG-gx8pn]

@@robcubed9557But you could also argue the mass itself would increase the chance of injury. Gotta be a balance.

[@hadargeva8287]

"this guy" is Victor Wembanyama

[@orwhynotrandom]

Yeah I was thinking not every tall bloke is going to be the size of brain shaw or bjornsson most tall blokes are absolute twigs and that's totally fine

[@tamarlambert6121]

I love how positive this channel is

[@arhael3594]

Being that skinny is a big advantage for him. Less weight to lift off the floor, less strain on joints, more endurance during the match.

[@Nam-mj6op]

advantage my ass, wanna bet ? In 3~4 years he will be jacked af or he will break in half with only 1 push.

[@Mieslk2]

@@Nam-mj6ophave you seen wemby play my guy? He’s dominating in his first few games already against some of the largest humans on earth

[@FiremansGaming]

i'm 1m92 and the bodyshaming is sur-real Yeah im working out yeah im doing cardio Don't you think i know im skinny already ?

[@Dont_Tread_on_Me448]

Ignore the morons , keep doing what you love , results will speak for itself

[@poiu-om8xc]

Wemby is actually 7’4, which makes it even more insane. The people commenting are insecure af and don’t realize building a good looking physique is not needed in basketball.

[@Sunnysideanyway]

If only people understood that physique and strength are not the same. You'd think it's common sense.

[@asura8495]

there is a very strong correlation.

[@Sunnysideanyway]

@@asura8495 Correlation does not equal causation. You can be strong and lean. Look at the biggest bodybuilders compared to the strongest men, the difference in physique is remarkable. Calisthenists are usually really skinny but can be quite strong as well.

[@ste---ny4lh]

Wemby looked a lot smaller a year ago, so he decided to put on weight for the NBA, which is a league with taller and bigger players compared to the european leagues. He did good, but imo he still isn't there yet. A couple more years and he might become the next Jokic

[@vaultboy6911]

He has tons of money and nutritionists. He will be fine. The keyboard warriors can say whatever they want 😄

[@zhenrybermillo5756]

bro's a generational talent

[@chonkeboi]

I believe he eats 5k+ calories a day or something like that, also he’s 7’4”, his bulk calories is way more than the average person.

[@BobRobby-xs9ot]

Actually calorie calculator says he needs 3,800 calories with 6 days of intense training to maintain 🤓

[@chonkeboi]

@@BobRobby-xs9ot ok but without the intense activity it would be more calories than that.

[@BobRobby-xs9ot]

@@chonkeboi maybe like 300 more depends

[@chonkeboi]

@@BobRobby-xs9ot I mean if he burns off 2k calories from activity per se, than it would be much more

[@gregandre148]

Wembanyama is GOAT, he has lots of talent, he doesn't even need to be super big

[@BarbarianXD]

Bro is black SCP 096

[@SomerandomShmuck]

He’s way more calmer than white scp 096

[@steve00alt70]

One of the godly advantages of being short 5'7 is that you dont have to eat much to gain large muscle mass and train weights as much. Couldnt imagine eating 7,000 calories a day just to maintain screw that.

[@AGFC2653]

I'm 5'7 and I just had to eat a small 2.5K calories a day to bulk up from 99lbs to 140bs while for the taller people, 2.5K will be maintainence or cutting amount.

[@trillionx4816]

ye but like its different when your taller, taller people are hungrier because they are bigger so 7,000 is not TOO much but again most dont even have 7000

[@BobRobby-xs9ot]

It’s not 7000 bro it’s 3,800 my calorie calculator said so 🤓

[@ballchilada4359]

He’s actually spectaculated to be taller than 7’3 7’5 as he’s taller than Zach edey who’s around 7’3

[@JasonAizatoZemeckis]

As my dad, and my grandpa used to say, "people need to shut the hell up"

[@joshpring1]

You know how hard it is for people that tall to look buff is. He would have to be eating around 5000 calories a day, plus he's an athlete so he doesn't need to look good, he needs to function. On top of that being buff and maintaining the mobility, agility and speed he needs to be a basketball player would litterally consume his life. You're talking an 1 hour daily stretch routine, atleast 7 hours a week on the court, 4 hours a day eating, 7 hours a week a cardio, 4-5 hours a week weightlifting( isolations) or 3-4 hours (supersets), 6-9 hours a day sleeping(recovery). The list goes on for ever. After 7 or 8 years of basketball he will get a more muscular frame without going the extra mile.

[@RabiRabii-fp1ft]

They said Fitness community is healthy 🙁 But after watching Arcdelio videos about reacting kind of these video made me think that fitness community is not that different than most of community

[@frogery]

dummies be like: i lift weights so when shit hits the fan i can handle it also dummies: can't run more than 200m without dying

[@hawkward957]

The dude seems to be moving very well for someone that extremely tall.

[@AGFC2653]

yeah, I've seen 7 foot people who struggle to walk

[@Mieslk2]

He’s arguably the most athletic 7 footer in NBA history, watch his highlights as his first 5 games of his career has been in the past week or so. Dude is a phenom

[@user-ob3dc9os9y]

@@Mieslk2 I haven't seen this guy play but Wilt Chamberlain might have something to say about your claim.

[@Mieslk2]

@@user-ob3dc9os9y you’re totally right; Wilt Chamberlain was a freak of nature. Dude supposedly could bench 550 & had a crazy vert. Wemby is an incredibly athlete and I think it’s just so hyped because he moves like this at 7’4, not 6’11 like KD & Giannis. Saying he’s the most athletic 7 footer ever is a stretch but dude can definitely get there throughout his career.

[@whtksy]

Hey now, not our guy Wemby. His body will get stronger as he trains/play in the NBA in the years to come.

[@gj1233]

People think getting bulked and muscle is good but he is training for his sport not bodybuilding

[@teacup2686]

He is also skinny for his sport.

[@iwillsurvive6156]

​@@teacup2686which is why he is training, c'mon use your brain

[@mraihan7400]

He might be skinny but he would laugh at them with his well-trained endurance. I swear skinnier people at my gym are either a beginner or an endurance athletes, like football player ⚽.

[@obievergreen3771]

Yknow maybe if these guys spent more time in the gym and less time running their mouths, they'd know that not everyone who touches a dumbell looks like goku. They're probably bone thin themselves without height as an explanation

[@user-qx6pd6om2j]

When I started watching fitness content, it use to be about going on your own journey and making it bruh. Now, for some reason, people get shat on because they aren't running a PPL or typical body building program.

[@arkelon]

It's really hard to keep on weight as a basketball player

[@michaellong2439]

bruh I weigh 140 and am 6 foot. this came up in an online discussion about tucking shirts in. I literally got like 5 responses from people saying I need to eat more, that my bones are going to snap, or that I must look like a skeleton. 140 at 6 foot is literally in the recommended healthy range according to bmi

[@KyleAlexJohn]

A lot of people forget that you need to specifically train to get big. Strength training won't cause you to blow up like hypertrophy training.

[@ScytheFly]

In fact his "skinny" version is still alot stronger than most guy his age

[@share_accidental]

i hate that some people online are so judgemental today, & they type such idiotic comments. don’t they realise they’re just making themselves look foolish?

[@user-wn4me9nb5v]

Touted as no 1 draft pick 3-4 yrs before he was even eligible , the greatest prospect since lebron and people are hatin 😂😂

[@classicjones1484]

Imagine making fun of the physique of someone whose about to make a billion dollars (not exaggerating) off of athletics

[@gvngbvngiggy]

People just projecting their own insecurities. Their entire self worth revolved around "being swole". They rather look big than actually be able to use their body for anything useful.

[@DUC939]

As a 2 m tall person. i do have a very hard life lookin big.

[@Ak-de5yv]

I recently got into an argument online with a dude who claimed bodybuilding is more athletic than Olympic sports. How delusional can one be?

[@ethanwiles1798]

half these bodybuilders cant even do basic athletic moves, just walking lumps of muscle

[@brianjuice]

Being skinny will make him less injury prone (less weight on the knees and feet.) If he stays healthy, he can make hundreds of millions of dollars in the future. I'd say it's worth it over what some insecure gym dorks on the internet think.

[@Melthemagholder]

The guy in the video and my physique are similar, and I’ve been told to “eat more” multiple times.

[@covingtoncreek]

I get it's being said tongue in cheek but nobody, I mean nobody, needs to go to McDonalds. Don't poison yourself.

[@ohjinmyoung7350]

since when did exercise be about looking hot?

[@thenewjord50]

So what about Kevin Durant

[@nataliamendoza3640]

Only gymbrosgays love big muscles 😆

[@Qadox]

Dude is built like skinny Pickle

[@iwillsurvive6156]

so funny everyone is laughing

[@teacup2686]

He is skinny, he needs to put some mass on if he wants to play good. Or he will get bullied by players like giannis or embiid.

[@LilacMorelli]

Yet they see a borderline anorexic looking girl at the gym doing cardio and they thing it’s good.

[@luckypendraw342]

He look like he might have marfan syndrome. He super tall and his limb are super long.

[@Dont_Tread_on_Me448]

If he had any "syndrome" , he wouldn't have been drafted as the number 1 pick in the NBA draft , possibly the greatest number 1 pick since LeBron James

[@haunter93til]

people defending him being skinny because he's so tall, essentially implying it's optimal for his sport clearly were too young or don't remember Shaq who was 7'1 and had the most dominant prime in the history of the game. he had no shortage of sheer strength. it's not about the look, it's about the power. I will be absolutely shocked if this kid's legacy becomes even half of Shaqs. I do like his flexibility regime, but shame on his trainer for not putting together proper strength routines for him. say what you want but 205 lbs at 7'4 is asking to get banged up and injured! I hope to get proven wrong!

[@niqqa9]

Hes kinda small even for a basketball player and looks underfed, they have a little muscle mass. But if he's good at what he does at this physique then ok

[@Dont_Tread_on_Me448]

He is good at what he does , or else he wouldn't have been drafted by the San antonio spurs ( an organisation which is known for drafting super star athletes ) with the number 1 pick in this years NBA draft , even if he doesn't do well , hes still gonna make a shit ton of money
