In recent years, BTS members have been paying more and more attention to health and fitness. Fans can easily see that they are no longer the young idols with skinny bo∂ιєs from their debut days but have now become mature, masculine men with muscular and strong physiques.

The first person to make a highlight about body transformation must be mentioned as Jungkook, during the time he continuously created a buzz by showing off his solid six-pack abs. After that, the other members of the group also gradually showed that their bo∂ιєs started to “bulk up” through arms, shoulders, or thighs, especially since enlisting.

RM and V were seen as the most diligent members in working out along with Jungkook later on. Even during the one month they stayed in LA to produce music, they hired a personal trainer to accompany them, and the three of them were the ones who spent the most time in the gym.

The physique of BTS superstars also became the most talked-about topic recently, not only among fans but also attracting the media’s interest. Therefore, when meeting RM at the airport this morning, some reporters brought up this topic to heat up the atmosphere.

“I see you working out every day, Namjoon,” one of the reporters spoke up first and RM replied: “I’m working hard!” He then continued to tease the superstar: “You can’t fall behind Taehyung,” making the BTS leader shyly admit: “Taehyung’s bigger than me.”

They also mentioned the group’s youngest member when the reporter said: “Ah, but Jungkook’s gotten huge, hasn’t he?”, RM continued: “He’s always been big!”

It seems that what the reporter mentioned was what he had seen from “LA Vlog Episode 1 (collaboration with BTS)” that was uploaded on Ma Seonho’s YouTube channel and recently went viral. The video captured trainer Ma training the BTS members in Los Angeles, USA. Although they were busy preparing for the album, RM, V, and Jungkook seemed to focus on working out without any sign of fatigue.

V’s bulging muscles stood out every time he moved with weights, Jungkook stole all the attention by taking off his shirt and showing his muscles and firm veins, while RM’s body looked “lighter” compared to his two younger brothers, but his arms still made ARMY beg “please choke me.”

The conversation between RM and the reporter, along with the pαѕѕionate workout sessions of the trio, seemed to show a strong competition among the boys. But of course, it was a healthy competition. Fans even enthusiastically supported the way they competed with each other in physique and kept working out diligently.

On the other hand, fans also burst out laughing at RM’s reaction, which carried both a bit of helplessness about himself and pride in his younger brothers, along with a determination not to lose:

- Namjoon is big all three of them are oh my God

- real jungkook has always been big lmao even he is the youngest

- yeah tae's shoulders are now wider than joon but they're all big boys

- A body building competition with those two. We love it much

- Trust namjoon to always give taehyungs body live update

- Thank you for confirming that, Joon! You said it with grace and humour, so all respect to you!

- Leadernim have spoken. Loving how he believes in Taehyung

- Gym & excercise become hot topic nowadays. Our boys don't compete in music, they compete in body building and gym lmao

- RM saying Taehyung is bigger than him… Sir, your arms alone could start a war too

- ARMY: please choke me with those biceps — RM: say less

- Namjoon admitting Taehyung’s bigger than him is the cutest thing ever. Our leader really trying his best to keep up with the maknaes

- RM’s little shy smile when talking about JK and V’s muscles… he’s so done but still working hard, what a sweetheart

- There’s soмєтнing so endearing about Joonie being a bit helpless yet determined — like ‘my dongsaengs are huge, but I won’t lose!
