Skewed Perceptions of Average

The prevalence of exceptional individuals in media creates distorted standards of what is considered average. Icons like Joe Rogan and Chris Williamson exemplify extreme fitness, making it challenging for the average person to gauge their own health and capabilities accurately. As a result, societal expectations are set unnaturally high, leading individuals to believe they must meet these elite standards to be considered successful or fit. This issue highlights the importance of recognizing the difference between the elite and everyday norms in order to foster a healthier self-image.
