The video, created by an individual identified as 'Better You Better Society,' promotes a three-step plan for rapid weight loss: a strict meat-and-vegetable diet, thrice-weekly weight training, and daily cardio. The video's simplicity and direct approach have resonated with viewers, but experts caution against such drastic and potentially unhealthy regimes.
