Extreme asymmetry: Doctors warn after influencer spends 300 days training only one shoulder

His extreme, asymmetrical transformation has gone viral online, but doctors warn the experiment could cause serious long-term musculoskeletal problems, outweighing any short-term strength gains or internet attention, and prompting debate about health, balance, and body image.
