That’s true, but those guys tend to build unnatural amounts of muscle through anabolic steroids and hormone treatments like TRT. This puts more muscle on the frame than the body is designed for, and combined with heavy training leads to faster aging and often heart conditions or other cardio-vascular issues. For the average person who is simply muscular and strong in a natural way, these are not relevant people to look at.
