I attribute the skepticism to this being LinkedInLunatics, which begins with the premise it's probably a clout post. I assume most haven't been to gyms, though, so if that's your only frame of reference I can see why they'd default to it being fake.

Hey that said, people praising hard work at the job or in school is rare as fuck in some places. I know I've been deprived of praise way too much growing up. Maybe that's how many people feel here, too?
