As OK! previously reported, Kennedy seems to have no shame about his workout clothes, as he posted a video of himself doing a pull-up in only jeans and boots on December 1.

The son of Robert F. Kennedy joked about “practicing for my confirmation hearing” alongside the clip of him and a buff gymgoer doing flips on pull-up handles.

Others alleged that RFK Jr. looked like he may be using medication to enhance his muscles while dissing him for his anti-vax beliefs.

“OK, so drugs & roids are healthy to RFK Jr. but not the life-saving polio vaccine. There's a similarity between RFK Jr. and his supporters, none of them are educated in biology 😂,” one person claimed, as another echoed, “What roids are you on? But vaccines are bad.”
