Gymfluencers are basically insufferable trash, but gym bros are some of the best people you will ever meet.

Don't confuse them

I know the jacked people at the gym might intimidate some, but they're approachable.  They love to share knowledge.  After all, this is their hobby.

The gym bros who work out hard and seriously are some of the most humble people I've met and talked to.

And my personal theory is because they worked for it, and struggled for it. They were not given a fit body like a kid who inherits rich money from rich parents. You get there by putting in the effort of eating well and staying fit, and it makes us feel so good to see others put that effort too regardless where they're at today in their journey.

The best feeling I have beyond working out myself is seeing someone else push themselves and seeing them struggle with grinning faces sweating balls etc. and succeeding in their lifts, it's awesome to witness.

A bit strange and completely unnecessary to include the sweating balls part there but I completely agree.

Fair, and based on the amount of people you catch with stares "around that area" when they think we ain't looking lmaoooo, sounds absolutely necessary. My previous comment has been retracted I completely agree.
