I eat a fair amount of beef and I drink some milk. My diet is about 50% animal products. I eat pretty much the same amount of nutrition and calories I need per day. You don't need 2000 calories especially if you're lying around all day. I work all day and I get away with maybe 1400 calories. YMMV based on your body weight and your metabolism. Testosterone levels are largely genetic but also diet related.

Liverking decided to book a ticket to buckingham palace when the queens funeral was happening so that he could lift weights outside the palace without a top on, just to gain attention as the world was watching. regardless of what people say, I think that's very disrespectful.

[@SoulDelSol]

That's disgusting

We want to hate this guy, but he is just a reflection of the worst of humanity and social media platforms. We need to address the route cause so these sociopathic narcissists can't have a soapbox to stand on.

You know how they say don't believe everything you see on tv? Well, the same applies to social media.

Someone needs to make a video about the influx of all these "intellectual" social commentry channels with these british guys with posh accents who sound kinda smart and are really good at editing

[@fidelio9301]

That’s not a posh accent, just a normal Southern English one.

no one looks like that without using steroids that much is clear.. i believe he sent out a positive message and if he just never denied the use of steroids to the first person who asked him no one would have made a big deal of it from thereon, maybe he would not have as many followers maybe but his diet is surely unique enough to make him stand out..

[@sauceissilly]

Shocked people actually believe he eats all the shit he says he does. He might eat some, but definitely not to the extent he claims

Brian is a classic charlatan as Zack Telander eloquently lays out in the MPMDs video. Great video Josh

[@51909relapseminem]

His apology was one of the funniest fucking things I'd ever seen. He started off that video talking about how rich he was, as if that would make things better lol

Very well made mini-documentary on a subject that is of great importance today: the mass-marketing of over-simplified and in many cases completely fraudulent lifestyle visions. Why anyone would want to follow the Liver King's objectives is beyond me, but in a world of aimlessness coupled with info bombardment, it shouldn't really be surprising that people look for a quick fix. Good work! (One tiny error: at 12:36, the word "pursuit" is misspelled.)

[@FitLabb]

Good messaging or not, this is a classic case of someone who had a clear plan to rise to fame & fortune by doing something new, absurd, & extreme, because that’s the mindless content that people seem to flock to instead of actual honest high quality content.

[@SoulDelSol]

Content? He just made ads

If from the very beginning he was like yo I'm 40 AND I have a genetic anomaly that inhibits my production of growth hormone but also I do all these other things to be healthy no one would have looked any deeper.

World class production values, and whoever wrote the script should get an academy award. It slips along so seamlessly, like nothing could be more natural. A real masterpiece.
