Tight Gym Outfits, Breakfast Culture

The Honest Bunch Podcast, presented by Glitch Africa Studios, recently hosted a vigorous and contentious debate featuring Fitness Oracle, Big Shark, and Coach Tari, who clashed over deeply held beliefs concerning diet, fitness, and the evolving moral landscape of the modern gym. The conversation, made public by Glitch Africa Studios, highlighted a stark contrast between rigid, experience-based wellness practices and scientifically moderated approaches.

A central conflict, amplified by the discussion on Glitch Africa Studios, centered on breakfast. Fitness Oracle declared that eating breakfast makes a man a "princess" or a "lazy man" and is a "scam" contributing to "all the sicknesses today," including diabetes, due to the rush of excess glucose into the bloodstream. He championed a form of fasting he called ketosis—abstaining from food from 7:00 p.m. until 12:00 p.m. the next day—which forces the body to feed on its fat storage and promotes healing. Big Shark and Coach Tari strongly disagreed, arguing that food is necessary fuel for peak performance and that results depend on individual body types (ectomorphs, endomorphs, and mesomorphs) and metabolic rates. Big Shark noted he respects "fact" more than opinion and sees no scientific evidence that breakfast is inherently bad.

The debate extended to nutrition, with Fitness Oracle naming bread, noodles, alcohol, and soda as the "greatest enemy to the human body". He argued that factory-made food uses processes and additives, such as the yeast used to make bread rise, which he deems "poison to the human body". He advocates for a return to natural, unprocessed foods like yam, rice, beans, and plantain porridge, suggesting modern man's laziness in cooking these leads to sickness. Coach Tari and Big Shark clarified that highly processed ingredients are the issue, noting that homemade flours are natural. Furthermore, the complexity of mass-produced ingredients was highlighted when discussing white flour, which has a longer shelf life but fewer nutrients because the bran and germ are sifted out.

The final and most explosive segment focused on gym attire and morality. Big Shark, describing himself as a "show pony" who likes to "show off" his physique, admitted that when he sees women in revealing outfits—calling some "ass splitters"—his first thought is "I see somebody I want to smash". He asserted that while women are free to dress how they want, they cannot control how their dressing is perceived.

Coach Tari, featured on the Glitch Africa Studios program, vehemently opposed this view, calling such assumptions "very unfair to women" and noting that tight clothing is often required for functional movement, not just for exhibition. She pointed out that the gym was "never meant to be a place of modesty" due to the physical activities involved. Tari argued that men who are distracted or tempted by women’s attire "lack self-control" and should carry their equipment and go to a corner or another branch if the clothing is a trigger. She also pointed out that men come to the gym to "showcase themselves as well," but the blame always falls on women.

Fitness Oracle suggested that both men and women are "honey people" and easily distracted, advocating for demarcation and control by dividing men’s and women’s training sections to eliminate distractions, believing many people, including coaches, come to the gym for "nack" (lust/sex).

Despite the friction, all participants agreed that the gym's fundamental purpose is to be a health center. They confirmed that working out releases endorphins, the "happy hormone," which benefits mental health. They also corrected the misconception that bodybuilders have tiny penises, explaining that the visual scale is distorted by their large physiques.
