Matt Morsia shared a before and after picture after a 10-minute ‘transformation.’
Social media is where people can go to show themselves at their best. This can be in their best outfit, after a haircut, or at the gym. Fitness influencer and bodybuilder Matt Morsia, also known as MattDoesFitness, recently showed just how easy it is to manipulate photos before sharing to different sites.
Morsia decided to complete a short workout over the span of 10 minutes. He took a before and after picture with different elements added in. Morsia is already in great shape with a shredded physique but the difference in the two pictures is still significant by just changing the light and using a different camera angle.

Matt Morsia begins his mini workout in his home gym. He only completes three sets of three different exercises — push-ups, arm curls, and dumbbell lateral raises. After the workout, Morsia shut the blinds in his gym, sprayed himself with water, and raised the camera angle. This will highlight his V-shape in his torso. Morsia contracts his abs before the second picture is taken and he comes out looking more shredded than before.
The purpose of this video was to show that it can be easy to manipulate a photo before posting it online and that is not how some people look all of the time. It is common for people to compare themselves to others after seeing posts on social media.
“And here you go, a before and after body transformation. It took around seven minutes. So before you judge or compare yourself to someone on social media, just bear in mind that is them in their best possible light. It’s not a reflection of how they look most of the time,” Matt Morsia said.
