Gen Z also views alcohol very differently, apparently. Without looking at collected data it's hard to say which generation is leading this charge (I suspect Gen Z and Gen Alpha), but I feel like an *alcohol* sober lifestyle is much more common these days.

I'm not on TikTok and generally try to avoid a lot of social media, so the uptick in gym rat lifestyle is not something I've been aware of. Certainly a good thing though and it's nice to see a whole generation not submitting themselves to permanently being on weightloss hormones or chronically obese. I'm in my mid-30s and folks in my social circle are either fit with quality fitness interlaced into their weeks or above average in weight. There's rarely an outlier from those two groups.
