Body Image When the Mirror Gets Loud
Training hard and liking what you see are not always the same skill.
Progress photos lie and tell the truth
Lighting, pump, and sodium swing the mirror more than your program did this week. Track performance and how clothes fit alongside photos.
Community pressure
Gay gym culture can be motivating and brutal in the same breath. Curate who you compare yourself to — online and in the locker room.
When to get help
If food rules, PEDs, or training volume are running your life more than supporting it, talk to a mental health professional who understands body image in queer men.
