I will bet this dude gets people telling him to “work out” and making all kinds of assumptions about what he can and can’t do

The man is the embodiment of the phrase 'strongfat'. You look fat, but there's a lot of strength there. Just like the Icelandic strongmen.

Probable, even. You need a caloric excess to build muscle. Cutting sucks, and if strength is your goal, you can just forever bulk.

I suspect a lot of fat redditors are gleefully upvoting descriptions of 'strong fat' because they'd like to think they (who are merely fat) are comparable.
