Does relying on social media for motivation in a cycling-based weight loss journey ultimately hinder progress by creating unrealistic expectations and fostering a culture of superficiality, where individuals prioritize likes and followers over tangible results and sustainable lifestyle changes?
Isnt it counterproductive to share every workout, meal, and milestone on social media, only to feel discouraged when others seemingly achieve more impressive results with less effort? Doesnt this constant comparison and competition lead to burnout, rather than fostering a genuine passion for cycling and healthy living?
Furthermore, dont the carefully curated highlight reels on social media create unrealistic beauty and fitness standards, promoting a narrow and unattainable definition of success? Shouldnt we focus on developing a more intrinsic motivation, driven by personal goals and values, rather than external validation and social media fame?
