The REAL Fake Natty Problem
The fitness world has been buzzing lately with the Jeff Nippard fake natty controversy involving Hussein. If you’ve been scrolling YouTube or Instagram, you’ve probably seen debates about whether or not Hussein is truly natural, and whether Jeff Nippard was right—or wrong—for defending him.This video is my take on the issue, but with a twist: it’s not just another “he said, she said” breakdown of drama. I want to cut through the noise and help YOU understand what actually matters when it comes to training, building muscle, and staying motivated.
Because here’s the truth: knowing if someone is natty or not does absolutely nothing for your own gains. It won’t build muscle. It won’t fix your shoulder pain. It won’t get you a six-pack. What matters isn’t whether Jeff Nippard defended Hussein. What matters is whether you’re taking information, filtering it properly, and—most importantly—implementing it consistently.
🚨 Why the “Fake Natty” Debate Doesn’t Help You
The reason I don’t normally comment on other fitness YouTubers is because I’ve spent 15 years at ATHLEAN-X building a channel around education, not drama. But the fake natty conversation is a perfect example of how easily people get distracted.
If you’re spending hours arguing about whether Hussein is natural, you’re losing time you could be spending training, eating right, and making progress. Spotting fake natties is entertaining—but it doesn’t improve your physique.
✅ The 3 Filters You Must Apply to Fitness Content
Instead of worrying about who is natty or not, you need to run ALL fitness advice through three filters:
1 Credibility Check – Is the information total BS or grounded in science and experience?
2 Applicability – Even if the info is good, does it apply to your situation? (Example: A machine workout won’t help if you only train at home.)
3 Implementation – Are you willing and able to put the advice into action consistently?
If advice passes all three filters, then it’s worth your time. If not—move on. That’s how you separate the noise from the stuff that actually works.
🔑 Why Obsessing Over Fake Natties Hurts Progress
Think back to the bodybuilding magazines of the 80s and 90s. Almost every athlete featured was on steroids. If we had written off all their training advice because of that, we never would have learned anything. Instead, we took what we could, applied it, and adjusted it to our own lives.
That’s the same approach you need today. Instead of worrying about whether Hussein is natty, or whether Jeff Nippard was a complete idiot to defend him, ask:👉 Does the information help YOU?👉 Can you implement it consistently?👉 Does it lead to real results?
If the answer is yes, then it doesn’t matter what someone else is taking.
📱 The Social Media Trap
The bigger problem is this: with Instagram and YouTube, you are constantly bombarded with physiques that you may never be able to achieve. Some of those people are enhanced, some aren’t—but comparing yourself to them only leads to frustration.
The only person you need to compare yourself to is the one in the mirror. That’s how I started, and that’s still how I measure progress today.
💡 The Real Secret: Consistency
At the end of the day, there’s one thing that trumps every program, every supplement, and every influencer’s advice: consistency.
• Consistency in your workouts.
• Consistency in your nutrition.
• Consistency in your sleep and recovery.
That’s what delivers results—not drama, not debates about steroids, not endless scrolling on social media.
🎯 Why This Matters for YOU
The controversy around Jeff Nippard and Hussein might be entertaining, but if you let yourself get consumed by it, you’re missing the point. Use that time and energy to focus on your own training, your own nutrition, and your own goals.
Because here’s the ultimate truth:👉 The only natty test that matters… is YOU.
