We’ve all seen those ads extolling the virtues of various bodybuilding programs or health supplements. I used to look like this, and now I look like this. Voila!!!

It turns out we may have all been duped.

This guy, who goes by the name of Furious Pete (don’t ask me why), decided to test a theory. He took the After photo first, then did some horrible stuff to his body before taking the Before photo. And what do you know.

Even without the Photoshop enhancements there is a huge and very noticeable difference. Sadly the things he did in the five hours between the two photos are what I do each and every day. That’s right folks, I’m a walking Before photograph.
