Wow, I think this is the realest as well as the best rant I've ever witnessed when it comes to bodybuilding. There is definitely more to bodybuilding than just hitting the iron and eating 6 meals a day, the insight is so on point. I'm glad you managed to bounce back from the "do or don't" dilemma despite the pressure... Wish you best of luck, keep it up man.
One thing that separates you from most of the pack is that you explain the truth, you may be right about nobody fucking caring about your career in the end. Every single moment, workout and meals, the down in the trench bullshit that you go through and In the end nobody may give two shits but something they will care about is that you spread the goddamn truth. Regardless if it’s just bodybuilding or something else along the lines, speaking the truths on something that seems like it strays far away from truths is what people will fucking care about. Quality video definitely a fan
I’ve been a loyal fan of bodybuilding for 27 years , I love our sport and lifting keeps my life in perspective. I love it when I finally find a down to earth bodybuilder that has great training tips and an insight into the life of such a demanding sport . I really really love this guys input into Bodybuilding , the greatest sport on earth .
This is why I have been a long-time follower and fan of you, Hoss. Your openness, honesty, work ethic, etc. about everything to do with bodybuilding and the realities of what you do - diet/training/supplementation/drugs/mentality is why I have so much respect. From an enormous fan of bodybuilding/powerlifting/strongman - all the best from today and beyond, sir.
Most bodybuilders end up fucking up their gut microbiome with all the over eating and supps. This was a great video regardless just talking about the challenges faced and mood swings when bodybuilding.
I’m not into bodybuilding whatsoever.. but I really like your honest no nonsense videos on nutrition/life choices/motivation... you speak straight with no BS.. dude well done
It’s good to see the real side of bodybuilding. It’s a day in day out struggle. Your videos are very inspirational. Wish we could send that your way from time to time. Keep up the great work.
So true, I have plenty of friends who want to get into shape in a certain time frame for example 6 months. My first question is always, what happens after 6 months? They fail to understand that training and diet is a lifestyle. Don’t bother if you can’t keep it up. It’s tough mentally. You need super self discipline. I’ve always said discipline is the key.
Man i love your personality, the way u talk, the way u train... it motivates me all the damn time🔥🤘🏻.i watch your videos then i re watch your videos ... there's so much fun... i mean u just trash those muscles.. keep grinding 🏃🏻... p.s. - my head was in the same thinking that i gotta hit shoulders and back on monday , I didn't feel like it ...and you dropped this video. Thanks🙏🏻
It's nice to see a bodybuilder speaking like an actual human...most of the bodybuilders keeps speaking positive shit 24/7 like a damn machine...which is okay but like c'mon...talk about the struggles y'all face so we can relate and get stronger together Really appreciate this video man. Proud of you...you're being real💪 Keep up the great work! You're gonna kill it at the show 💯
Its all so true.. social media also inflates importance. I have to stop and remind myslef.. i started bodybuilding for me.. nobody cares if im shredded or huge..im just a 37 year old gym rat but i love it. So i care, i compete out of love.. totally understand this video. Thanks big man. Hope you crush these shows and qualify for the O.
Thanks for keeping it real Fouad. I appreciate your honest examination of your life and what really ends up being important. You’re a legit inspiration.
I swear this is so real.. Id love to see daily vlogs and much more from you. Fuck the muscle for a secound, you can be a really big youtuber becuz you speak from your heart and it motivates ppl. Much respect 10/10
I have followed you for a long time Fouad. And the one thing I can say is you've helped me and many other more than you can imagine. You have your individual struggles like everyone else, but those struggles remind us that we are human. And when you question yourself take a second and realize why you started this in the first place. Your struggles help others with their own. GOD BLESS AND THANKS FOR KEEPING IT REAL
Salam Valeikum Sir Fouad from UAE you are a true Mentor for millions of start up guys who aspires to take up bodybuilding as their profession......I believe it's the only sport even if you loose you loose nothing coz you still carry a beautiful physique and an incredible life style !!
Fouad I have only just found your channel and I find it so easy to digest. Not trying to knock anyone else down I believe in building those around me up, I have adhd and Aspergers so I battle within myself a lot but the gym helps me to stay calm and focused I am only about two years in but I’m love it. I would really appreciate if you could do a video on bursitis and or arthritis in the shoulders and lower back as I struggle with both. Keep your head up champ your killing it much love from Australia.
As long as I've been a fan of bodybuilding, I never knew Fouad had such a great personality & intellect..Definitely got a new subscriber & will continue to watch the journey, you've been putting in work for a long time bro! Salute! 💪🏾💪🏾
Well I wouldn't go so far to say nobody cares, but I absolutely love your frankness transparency and honesty.. those are the real things I look for in an athlete or people in general.. Keep up the good work.. Love your Channel.
Exactly right! Everything this man said was 100% how I feel . I've never sniffed the top 3 in 8 years in the NPC . Handful of call outs is all I have to show but I just love it too much to say I'm too old . Thank you sir for sharing.
Fouad, you have that testicular fortitude to Keep moving forward, thanks, many thanks for you´re videos and most important for the motivation you gave us.
Hey fouad great vid bro honest and real perspective on how things affect you as a bodybuilder but also in any aspect of life and what your passion is on life Like you said it’s up to us personally to choose to motivate ourselves and drive ourselves . Appreciate your honest and real point of view . Keep the vids coming lot of us look forward to the training and just real life situations you talk about 👍
BB requires one of the strongest mental games of all “sports” or whatever one wants to call it. This is especially true when competing, but even to get to that point takes A LOT of focus and commitment.
I can tell you are real with this shit because I've been there too man. It really is simple as you need to realize its gonna be miserable sometimes. Basically physiologically impossible to NOT be miserable at some points.
I give a shit ! I've learned a lot from you. How to stay motivated, how to do the exercises, how to eat. You keep it real. I did Inferno. Let me tell ya, the gainz were incredible. When you say no one gives a shit, that's not true. I give a shit. I'm not a competitive bodybuilder and I'm always hurting somewhere. I love it. If I'm not hurting, I'm dead. Keep going Hoss, you've helped me a lot.
I care about you Fouad because you have been so good to us your fans. We wanna see you destroy those weights and as successful as one can be ,,,, keep it up bro
and the fact that steroids fucks with your head too! been there done that, somedays you feel like a lion, somedays you don't wanna do bodybuilding at all
Good shit bro! We’re all humans we all have slip ups we’re not perfect. People are to optimistic and not realistic if you don’t put in the grind no one will do it for you. Keep it up 💪🏼🔥
Dude I’m Persian and big fan of you and admire your personality and physique but don’t ever allow nothing let you down. You’ve had your passion and enjoyed the sport and did pretty damn good professionally on top and you’re popular. You could Stop bodybuilding professionally and still train hard but have time to focus on other things in life.... but make sure that is what you want and think it through. Love brother
Thank you for this video 💕My week went a little depressing ! Today while working out i felt like crying and wanting to stop but i kept my shit together !! been working out for 15 months now, people start asking me if i compete ! My pro bodybuilder coach helped me the last 6 month ... i am eating and training like a bodybuilder now ! I may compete one day ☺️
Just my two cents...Exogenous hormones are well known to cause massive mood swings and emotional shifts. We all get ups and downs but having used hormones myself in the past I can testify that it accentuates the highs and lows of life. Massive respect to you Fouad and I hope you feel better and keep killing it cos I love following you! Never give up bro we are all i this together.
Wow, I think this is the realest as well as the best rant I've ever witnessed when it comes to bodybuilding. There is definitely more to bodybuilding than just hitting the iron and eating 6 meals a day, the insight is so on point. I'm glad you managed to bounce back from the "do or don't" dilemma despite the pressure... Wish you best of luck, keep it up man.
Well you gotta eat them 6 times a day but what about the uuuuh extra carriculares?
a tip : you can watch series on flixzone. I've been using them for watching a lot of movies during the lockdown.
@Raul Crew Definitely, have been watching on flixzone} for months myself :D

You're one of the most well spoken and smartest guys in the sport. I didn't even know you had a channel! Subbed!
I’ve been a loyal fan of bodybuilding for 27 years , I love our sport and lifting keeps my life in perspective. I love it when I finally find a down to earth bodybuilder that has great training tips and an insight into the life of such a demanding sport .
I really really love this guys input into Bodybuilding , the greatest sport on earth .

Fouad reminds me of Evan Centopani and is easily in my top 10 for fitness channel contributors.
appreciate the sentiment!
Appreciate you as well. Thank you.

THAT WAS ONE OF THE MOST REAL TALK FROM A PRO !!
I'M 48 - VERY INSPIRING- THANKS FOUAD!!🙏

I’m not into bodybuilding whatsoever.. but I really like your honest no nonsense videos on nutrition/life choices/motivation... you speak straight with no BS.. dude well done
Had the honour of meeting fouad a few times. What I like most is he’s real
It’s good to see the real side of bodybuilding. It’s a day in day out struggle. Your videos are very inspirational. Wish we could send that your way from time to time. Keep up the great work.
So true, I have plenty of friends who want to get into shape in a certain time frame for example 6 months. My first question is always, what happens after 6 months?

definitely a major one!

This rant is real and i feel this can apply to any sport, job, lifestyle. Nobody cares about you more than yourself.
This guy could crank out some pros as a coach with a mindset like this. Giving away what you’ve got sometimes is the only way to keep it. Stay hungry.
Salam Valeikum Sir Fouad from UAE you are a true Mentor for millions of start up guys who aspires to take up bodybuilding as their profession......I believe it's the only sport even if you loose you loose nothing coz you still carry a beautiful physique and an incredible life style !!

As someone who has been off an on with weight loss, this was much needed.
Im not on your level but you are so right. No one care. You have to stay focused for yourself. I really appreciate your honesty.
So much love for this video mate
