Thank you for taking the time to write this. It's a really good and valuable comment.

I think what most people don't realise is that what's a good physique for one person isn't necessarily a good physique for another. That's the gift and the curse of genetics for you. But a physique is ultimately carved out of discipline and consistency.

I look at where I am now and I'm instantly thinking about where I want to be, but given a moment to take stock and I only dreamed of getting to this point. In fact my first world problems are that my friends lack the maturity to celebrate with me.

Anecdotally, I actually think that's why it's important to have friends around your fitness, so they can ground you, rather than trying to ground yourself based on influencers.
