My biggest issue isn't ped use. It's the unhealthy and unrealistic body images seen in media. The vascularity and size you see in shirtless scenes are shot in tight windows and the beginning of filming because you need to dehydrate and plan your training and diet for peak performance.

Bodybuilders have to plan poo poo out in advance when they compete. They don't stay that size all the time but films create a false sense of normalcy.

Henry Cavill has mentioned he had to stop taking liquids for a while for shirtless scenes while filming. That poo poo isn't healthy.
