Eric Kim, a photographer and blogger, has a well-defined physique that he attributes to a combination of intermittent fasting, powerlifting, and a strict carnivorous diet. His workout regimen focuses on lifting extremely heavy weights, often performing a single maximum-effort repetition, commonly referred to as a “one-rep max.” He emphasizes the importance of moving heavy weights to build muscle and avoid what he considers the monotonous nature of traditional bodybuilding sets.

In terms of nutrition, Kim follows an intermittent fasting routine, typically eating just one large meal a day. This meal is heavy on beef and other red meats, which he believes are optimal for muscle building due to their high concentration of myoglobin and nutrients. He rejects the idea of consuming protein powders, creatine, or other supplements, focusing purely on whole foods like beef ribs, brisket, and liver.

Kim also critiques traditional bulking and cutting methods, opting instead for a more consistent approach that emphasizes strength and lean muscle development over short-term changes oai_citation:2,Physique is Health – ERIC KIM oai_citation:1,How to Become Muscular – ERIC KIM.
