The TikTok bodybuilder who claims fasting burns more fat than cardio is driving me insane

Saw this guy with 40k followers post a video saying skipping breakfast for 16 hours is scientifically better than any treadmill session. My brother tried it for two weeks, got lightheaded at work, and the only thing he lost was energy. I get that fasting has its place, but this dude was selling a one-size-fits-all fix while flexing his genetics. Has anyone else seen these bro-science posts that ignore that most people just need to eat less and move more?

Every fitness trend is just the same diet rebranded with a new name and a gym bro yelling at a camera. People will follow anything that promises an easier fix than actually counting calories and walking more.

Yeah the "easier fix" got me too, I've bought three different programs and still can't count to ten steps without getting winded.
