Shady Workout Moves? Heavy K ‘s Gym Attire Sparks Twitter Takedown

The frost of winter has melted away, and South African stars are gearing up for summer by hitting the gym, trimming down their diets, or combining both efforts.

While a few opt for the discreet approach, letting their outcomes speak for themselves, much like Minnie Dlamini, others choose to showcase their journey on social media for everyone’s eyes.

Fashion Faux Pas or Serious Sweat Session?

Amongst these, we find Hitmaker Heavy K, who falls into the latter category. Recently, he took to X, formerly known as Twitter, and shared a video of his gym session. He wasn’t lifting weights incognito; his exercise session was front and centre. Yet, opinions stirred like a gust of wind.

A fraction of X users revelled in seeing the burly musician finally venture into the gym realm, while others furrowed their brows at his gym attire choice. Heavy K was lifting weights and donning glasses, which prompted a few to suspect that he had shared the video merely for showmanship.

This pocket of Twitter users conjectured that the acclaimed producer had put forth the gym footage as a teaser for his upcoming single, “Kwelizayo,” scheduled for this Friday. Another group opined that he’d initiated his gym routine later than expected, advising him to jog a few laps prior to pumping iron. Some quipped that he had belatedly decided to “fetch his life.”
