? Sophie Kay (@sophieakay) June 11, 2015Pictures do not lie! If you post beneficial selfies, you will always be guaranteed to look "offline" as great as on the pictures in the net - right?
This is of course total nonsense. We all know how easily pictures can be edited, and that no one looks in the mirror right after getting up and "Perfect for Instagram!" calls. Nevertheless - somehow one unconsciously believes that other people are as immaculate as they present themselves.
Blogger and fitness trainer Sophie Kay wants to show how stupid this assumption is and destroys a particularly stubborn selfie cliché on her website: the impressive before-and-after effect.
Before-and-after pictures: Great effect, easy to reach
Especially the before-and-after selfies, which are sensational training and diet episodes, have a particularly credible effect. After all, there is a large period of time between the pictures, and so an enormous body optimization can not be faked, right?
But Sophie's blog proves: Yes, that works. Even simple. The difference between hip fat and trained dream body is just a matter of technique.
How does it work? Sophie sums it up in one sentence: "All I did in the three minutes between the pictures was to turn off the light from above, put on better matching underwear, turn my body to the side to show a better perspective Tighten muscles and - of course - put a filter over the image. "
That's it. Nice light, matching laundry, good pose, photo filter - and you can already indicate the success of his "hard training" in the network.
Video: Before and after fake for advanced
Not extreme enough yet? Youtuber "Furious Pete" caused quite a stir a few years ago with a video in which within a day he made an impressive transformation from overweight Schluffi to an impressive muscle man.
The trick of "Furious Pete" is as banal as it is effective: He made the "after" photo first, and then spent a few hours inflating his belly with junk food as much as possible.
Quickly made a "before" photo and - Simsalabim! - already he can present a great "training success".
Selfie-show: superfluous and implausible
So: If somebody brags about Facebook again, that "discipline" and "full commitment" should have led to his "dream body", you can see that totally relaxed.
It does not really matter whether the pictures are a fake or not: more than a shrug "Nice for you" should not be wasted anyway.
