ROHIT NAIR : Bodybuilding is not fitness

Bodybuilding is not fitness,
Upto some extent all of bodybuilding is an illusion . Tiny joints , cartoonish muscles and extremely low body fat .

Bodybuilders are lifting weights not to develop functional strength but to increase the size of their muscles. They will develop strength along the way, but it’s only a side effect of the training rather than the focus.
Bodybuilding is more about physical appearance than about what our ability / capability to perform and movement
We should know that bigger isn’t always better

But we should also know that :-

Body building is very much a visual sport; a bodybuilder’s impressive physique is hard to ignore and recognizable world-over
The intensive weight lifting and strength training that bodybuilders undergo changes their bodies, making them stronger and leaner. Building muscle mass is not only healthy in the short term, but can also have long-lasting health benefits. with age comes a loss of muscle mass ,strength and normal decline in muscle. Building up muscle mass earlier in life can help to slow down this natural muscle decline
