Even natural Body builders are not healthy because they are risk of heart diseases. They eat more eggs than average humans. Overeating of eggs can lead to heart disease. Natural bodybuilders eats 18 a day in average. They also are at risk of dying of choking from food.

Natural body builders are obviously more healthier to steroids.

But they are not healthy too because lack or cardio and too much protein

Did I hear that the guy eats 18 eggs daily to keep his body toned? Most people can't even afford to have one egg a day. That's crazy expenses to maintain what would still make skinny guys predisposed to live longer than people with toned bodies.

I think even natty or no steroid body builders are not healthy. the high protein diet and lack of cardio on their work out harms their body. Yes many body builders cannot handle cardio since all they do is lift weights

A balanced exercise that includes working on stamina and strength is important. Common people don't need to go in these extremes and jeopardize their health. Stay fit, exercise regularly and eat a balanced diet... that is good enough to stay healthy.

It depends. They can be, but some do some pretty unhealthy stuff in the pursuit of big muscles like steroids. They also dehydrate themselves for competitions, which is really bad for you.

True. It can mess with their flexibility as well. An archery instructor told me that people who build up their arm muscles too much can't shoot as well because the extra muscle gets in the way (for archery you mainly want a strong back, and to a lesser extent strong shoulders, not so much strong arms). Not that they'd care about that, probably, it's just an example of how optimising your body for one thing only can make it not as good at doing other things.

They are strict to diets but consume too many egg daily, high in cholesterol. Not natural body for them

[Spontaneo]

Whether healthy or not, I think that bodybuilders look yucky!

[arunima]

Even I wonder what they find so attractive in body builders. I find their body more made up than the natural healthy. And I have met and known many regular female who don't find anything appealing about that kind of body. That's a big myth used for so long for publicity.

Most women these days prefer slender guys with abs

Body builders cannot be said to be entirely healthy they do fall ill some times i guess is natural to fall ill.When it is natural it’s is healthy but still you take drugs or fruits to boast your immune systems too so that you don’t fall ill .but when they use steroids they have implications and its becomes very unhealthy

[JASPREET]

They should stay fit and lift weights and no need to add any unhealthy things or supplements to their diet because this is mostly the reason for their downfall.

Become bodybuilder or have similar body is long term process and life style. You can't excercise for a month and then stop for two and then again start. You don't have to excercise every day but you must live it in kitchen and food, normal sleep, no or minimum alcohol.
