Mark Hunter Jr’s advice to be aware of trends in the fitness world

The IFBB Pro advised budding fitness enthusiasts and wrote in the caption of his new post, “Don’t believe the hype. If it sounds too good to be true, it is. Just stick to the basics. Too many scams & frauds in the fitness industry.” According to him, this blunt advice is a reality check for those who are enticed by short-term solutions and unrealistic approaches.
