I barely watch now since the focus moved from personal and raw to a superhero dramatic super high quality edits.
We don’t need an edit, we don’t need a fitness guru, we need 2016-2019 christian.
I felt like I was watching a friend, now I feel like I’m watching an influencer
Your last sentence is exactly what I was thinking.
His older vids were more Sam sulek vibes now it’s diff. I get it tho he got into the business side of things which takes up a lot of mental.
Agreed. 💯
100%, he used to just be himself but now he wants to be like everybody else. He's forgotten about the plot and is focusing too much on external things that don't actually matter. It sucks to see. I've been here since before the warehouse gym.
damnnn sums it perfect
I don't understand this man anymore. He worked hard and has everything but instead of settling down with Heidi and starting a family he decides to go on gear and accelerate his aging and now he looks 40 years old and mentally stressed and unhappy. Strange
I thought I was the only who noticed how old he looks
I think you’re kind of reflecting on your own values. You don’t really know if Heidi wants a kid. You also are the type of person who wouldn’t get as far as he did because of your mentality of just being done with it and not doing shit after becoming successful.
He’s also been on gear for years lol
Material goods and money don't buy long term happiness simple but still good to have especially if the person worked hard for it like Christian did.
100%
Tren make that much older look, but he’s shoulders popped out as well :)
I knew this was coming since this current channel has been fluctuating between 999,999 subs and 1,000,000 (which is insane btw) but the growth stopped once he stopped uploading over here and focused purely on alphaland. RUclips pretty much took him out the algorithm
PEOPLE GOT TIRED OF BEING CLICKBAITED! PLAIN AND SIMPLE.
You can do clickbait once in a while. But when every video title is clickbait, people get tired of it.
its not even the click bait, its just the editing and videos tbh. i stopped watching him after falling in love with his videos in 2016 2017 times. videos changed, higher budgets doesnt mean better videos.
@@itstoliyyeeeeeeeeIt was the clickbait for me. Also the fact that he became another fitness RUclipsr who produced nothing educational anymore.
It was the clickbait for me as well
I think i speak for a lot of people when i say we just miss the old style videos, no fancy edits or production style videos. Just you and a camera.
The reason why Sam Sulek is doing so well at the moment. Raw, uncut. Makes a 45 minute video feel like 5. And no click bait crap
So true!
And lots of people enjoy quality editing as well, just like the old style videos
This video makes no sense. Why not just post the new videos here. Whether that be going back to the classic feel we all like or not. It seems very reactionary to not getting his pro card? Could be wrong tho
I said the same thing recently.
Seems like an odd decision to throw away a channel with a million subs that youve had for 10+ years to make a new one with the exact same name and content. I think taking really long breaks from RUclips with no communication and all the clickbait is what hurt your sub count. I've been following you along on this journey for about 10 years and will continue to on your new channel. I just hope this isnt a rash decision.
Couldn't have said it better myself
He's still going to get paid for the this channel and views because most people won't unsubscribe, and then will subscribe to his channel, so when you add the subs for both channels, it will be over the million he's looking for.
@@Gladiator1972 nah subs are meaningless, RUclips revenue is based entirely on views so this channel won't be making anything if it has no new videos. It may still get some views on his old videos but not much.
This man and his BF max are the kings of clickbait.....on here...
Exactly
Sounds like a emotional decision. I hope you didn’t think you were going to get your pro card by this year. Men’s bodybuilding whether it be open class to the men’s physique class it’s gotten way out of hand meaning the sport has gone beyond normal. They want monsters and that equals taking more gear (a lot more gear) so much that a lot of human body’s can’t handle it and you get an inlarged heart. These companies including the all these supplement companies don’t give a shit about you me him her. It’s all about $$$. M sure pappa Guzman thinks the same way and just wants his sons healthy and happy and successful which you are. Just thinking out load CJ.
Yeah it's like, Christian could get the pro card if he took enough gear to make his hair fall out, but is it worth it? He's got everything else in life. But he's very proud (but never satisfied) so I don't think he'll ever rest until he gets it.
@@UnoriginalUsername25I’ve brought up that awhile ago and some fought me about it. “….never satisfied” can be a problem.
It stopped 4 years ago because you started taking breaks and taking a “launch” style approach to RUclips when the algorithm rewards consistency.
add clickbait to it as well, wasnt believing anything he put in his titles anymore, so I didnt even bother watching
Facts! You hit it right on the head here. This along with all the bs clickbait titles are what is holding this channel back. Who wants to go 6, 7, or more months with no videos, and then BAM! Here's a new video with a click bait title!
Absolutely correct. Can't blame him with how busy he is on bigger things, but that is just how RUclips works. Add in people getting a little sick of the endless clickbait, and its a recipe for stagnation
Go eat ass.. man is just successful and priorities switch and so did his title. He went from fitness influencer to now a business Mogul
It was the ego thinking he was above the algo back in the day. There’s no way he didnt Know that youtube hate breaks.
As someone who used to watch every video: the reason I stopped watching is because I don't want to watch CG starving himself shredding again or 45minute uploads full of boring overly cinematic shots.
Not sure if this is the reason why people stopped watching/why the channel is dead, but just my 2 cents as to why I stopped. (not trying to hate just honesty)
This and the click bait is exhausting. Not to mention how it used to feel like we were watching a big brother, someone who motivated us and made us believe we could achieve something naturally.
Yeah and him constantly complaining bout the prep. I mean, ofc i understand its hard. But its annoying for 40min
And every video there are new randoms and yes-men that just say «Thats so sick bro» to everything Guz says or does
The main reason he's not as popular as he used to be, if we look deeply at human nature, is he lost his facial aesthetics due to all the juice. He's aged rapidly, looks in his 40s and his hair has thinned like crazy and evaporated.
@@cderzzz You think he looks 45 because of lack of sleep and stress and not drugs? HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAA
*Like someone said, there is a fine line between clickbait and flat out lying and Christian crossed it long ago. I dont think many people even care about Alphalete anymore.*
For me it's *Alphaland specifically, but your point remains the same and true
I see a few chicks wearing their leggings in the gym every now and then. The only guys I ever see wearing Alphalete stuff are Latinos or dudes with super old stuff when Alphalete basically just sold t-shirts. I always thought that was the dumbest name but I guess it's successful so what do I know?
I wouldn't call it successful, but who knows? Gym Shark and YoungLA have a huge grasp on fitness clothing, as we know. And I've been to Alphaland once, and in my opinion, it's very underwhelming.
how so@@NotTodayBud
Christian, speaking as a pure OG and straight from the heart outside looking in. We get it, you’re handling multiple million dollar businesses, so you have immense pressure to perform and pay taxes/rent back etc. most of us feel assume after “making it” (which you did) you’d finally slow down, marry Heidi and settle down, take care of your health and free up your time. Instead you’re on gear, drinking nonstop energy drinks, probably have sleepless nights here and there, focus even harder than ever on businesses. We get it hard work never sleeps. You’re extremely lucky you haven’t had major health complications but you are setting yourself up for that heading into your 30s.
If I’m being real, I just feel like Maxx kept true to himself, feels more relatable, still has the “underdog” in him. Christian on the other hand, has insane millionaire success, changed the fitness industry forever, which isn’t wrong at all. But on outside looking in, it just looks like you left your “close ones” behind like not spending as much time with Max, or Tim leaving alphalete (we don’t know but that’s just outside looking in), Nabil who wasn’t really able to record as much since CG has a team already, Kelsey who was your personal assistant, worked with you thru peak pandemic years saying she didn’t feel appreciated and working 8 job roles at same time, Dorian same issue not enough appreciation, Oz who used to work for Maxx now you kinda “indirectly” took him on your team. Kinda speaks volumes on how corporate you’ve gone. No one wants to relate to that. On top of that I get you have a public image of success but it’d nice to know the failures too like why 3D energy drinks are dead, kung fu tea x 3D energy drink collab failed etc. I get it - it’s business and can’t risk NDAs etc.
Sorry if it comes off as an asshole, still genuine fan at the end of the day. Sending peace n love guzman.
Amen
This spot on
Spot on
100% spot on. I know others said “spot on” as well but dang. Hit the nail on the head.
You could not have said this any better . This is 100% what I have been thinking for some time now . I followed Maxx because of CG and now enjoy watching Maxx more for all the reason you mentioned . Shit Lowkey makes me sad at how different Christian looks .
Just keep the videos more personal and short like they use to be. The day of eatings and working out and talking to the camera man. All the glam is what lost people we used to feel like a family and now it feels like a business don’t throw away a good channel
We love Sam Sulek because he gave us the simple videos we used to love, no Clickbait, no crazy, over-the-top production or theatrics. Just a man, lifting weights and living to get jacked.
This
This is cap. Yall love Sam because hes new, he's not 12 years in the game. Same way yall loved CT Fletcher, Mike Rashid, Elliot Hulse, Chris Jones & countless others. Its human nature to get bored with something, it happens. But stop lying.
@@aboutmillions You're 100% right.
@@aboutmillionsIncorrect. Sam Sulek has had the fastest rise in subs out of any of those by FAR. He’s reaching 1 million and about to overtake this channel in a matter of months. And he’s not used 1 clickbait or done anything more than raw authentic workout clips. He’s broken the mold of the overproduced dramatic gym theatrics and that’s the reason he’s on par to have more subs than any of those channels in record time.
@@78townit’s easier to grow now on social media than ever before and that’s because there’s an entire generation available as viewers. People are growing and seeing numbers unlike anyone ever before. When CG was growing nobody in the fitness space was growing that fast but now is a different era. So it’s not a surprise to see someone overtake a channel in several months nowadays
Same as some on this comment section I got annoyed with the click bait titles. That being said you def come across as a genuine and a cool person. Happy for your success. Whether the youtube thing works out or not you've had an amazing run. Alot to be proud of.
People don’t care about the quality and people don’t like that click bait shit. Just be you and people will watch because they will want to see you succeed
Yeah, I don’t need the fancy edits. Old school vlogs are the best.
Also succeed doesn’t equal a pro card.
@@inspiteofbecauseof4745 The main reason he's not as popular as he used to be, if we look deeply at human nature, is he lost his facial aesthetics due to all the juice. He's aged rapidly, looks in his 40s and his hair has thinned like crazy and evaporated.
@@MakinItHappenn
More so ppl think he’s crazy now and no actual personality , just narcissism . Everything’s gotta be a dramatic movie scene but nothing is actually progressing .
@@MeowMatee When you look different, inevitably your personality has to change.
INSTEAD; keep this channel for your own personal videos. New channel for the high production edits.
Your vloggy OG content is some of your best an shouldn’t be a reason to quit this channel.
You didn’t do the videos to become successful, you did them for passion and personal love for what you do, don’t lose that.
The old content is what you made you grow in the first place 🙌🏻✅
I know you looked up to Greg to which so did I, as his vids were not about the production of a video but the message he put across ❤️💪🏻
please stop making 45min movies maybe then people will start watching again.... honestly it's just too much so most of the time I don't even bother
His problem is… its the same every year… he has a lot of fans in europe.. yet he never made a germany tour, never went some days to paris… its just us/houston and london… his content got boring
Why does sam sulek get a lot of views then?
Totally agree, my youtube watchlist alone has over 200+ vdo of 20-120 mins vdo. The amount interesting 45+ mins long-form vdo contents out there are insane (youtube, netflix, etc), and its hard to make a 45 mins vlog-like vdo that can compete for ppl's time against those well-planned vdo out there.
@kooldude123you can’t compare a fitness influencer’s channel to a Mr beast video.
Mr Beast has explained why his growth happen, it’s because people want to see the craziness of each video
Watched you since the early days man. It was so cool rooting for you to succeed. But truth be told, I think you already made it man. You’re already widely successful. And maybe that’s why people aren’t as invested anymore.
Yep, he went from being one of us to viewing us from above.
@@droiddevx03 Stick to internet forums and video games, geek squad
Sometimes when vids are too long, if people miss a few, they feel like its hard to catch up unless they are really a hardcore engaged fan. Subbed to new channel
Fax. Kinda fell off this series due to the time. I would 100% prefer 12 minute vids 2-3 days a week packed with content.
He moves quickly
2015 2016 2017 this channel was goated
Exactly this, the summer shedding song always got me pumped to follow along
I’ve watched you since like 2012. What you are today has become a person I and many others don’t want to be.
The PED/androgen abuse, stress, unhealthy mindset for just more, is going to be your downfall if you don’t catch yourself.
Your hair is falling out, your body looks unhealthy, you sound sick, aged 20 years in 1 year. What’s the point? To get a pro card that they give out like candy and that means basically nothing these days compared to 10 years ago.
Enjoy the money (you’ll make a lot more still), get married, have some kids. You should actually find real happiness.
💯💯
Spot on
It’s tough to judge behind a keyboard since I don’t personally know you, but from a viewer’s perspective, it’s been fantastic seeing your business grow. But I think what you may lack from your videos is a more personal touch. Since you hit 30, maybe people want to know more about family plans, marriage, children, etc. Of course, this is just my .2 cents! Will subscribe to the new channel 🙏🏽
I agree! I would love to see more than just his fitness lifestyle. I love watching Max’s channel cause I feel like he’s a friend. He shows his relationship and will also take us through marriage, kids etc I’m sure. Just more personal, not only about the achievements ❤
Would be better if you consistently uploaded year round a couple times a week instead of every other day for months only to let it fall off again.
the reason i stopped watching is because the production got to be too much. Too cheesy, too try-hard at being inspirational. too flashy. its cool for maybe 1 video here and there. Love to see growth but unfortunately there comes a time when you grow so much that you become out of touch.
Part of the problem is this mentality of "proud but never satisfied." That's an unrealistic, unfulfilling, way of thinking that inevitably leads to burnout, which is exactly what happened here.
Spot on
Facts
I think the downfall has been because of the overemphasis on the nitty gritty of bodybuilding and stuff most people don't relate to. Most people became fans because of your work ethic and value you provided with your motivational talks, etc. Most people don't relate to 30 minutes of bodybuilding posing practice.
You got it.
I think it’s the exact opposite. Christians videos started going downhill when it all became about work and alphaland.
The man is showing you how to set and go after those goals. I don't know how you get more motivating than that.
Spot on
x2
People like relatable content in 2023. They days of the crazy over produced / edited videos aren't it anymore tbh, it's doing too much for no reason. It seems out of reach for the average person and you've lost relatability. If you went back to just low key vlogging, days in the life, behind the scenes of business I bet a lot of people would gravitate back and it would feel more organic
10 plus years watching and feels like I’ve moved on with my life while Christian is still tryin* to get big and shredded 😅
Right? It’s cringey at this point.
Exactly
He looks so old like 40+ now like what happened. 😢
Guessing this will turn into an Alphaland channel? Doesnt make sense to shut down this huge following
Agree. To then create an identically named 2nd channel ... hmm I wish he just stayed on this one
@@thecid6 He must believe his channel is affected by youtube somehow. Like being held back by the algorithm. Not counting the facts that he went through long periods of no uploading, and people got tired of all the outrageous clickbait. idk, this makes zero sense to me for him to be doing this.
Shutting down a 998k channel is comically stupid
@@Salomon_G this
The body fat is getting to his head
Your reasoning for a new RUclips channel doesn’t make sense, if the new channel will still have same style videos.
Best to just do it in the same channel and see the difference throughout the years.
I think you have enough data, to pinpoint where exactly your viewers are skipping, and what are the most viewed parts of the videos
@@bethmcmullan7686 but engagement won’t change if he still putting out the same style of videos.
He has enough data in his current videos to see where exactly in the video are people tuning out, skipping, or just plain leaving.
Building a new channel with the exact same system, won’t change the amount of time people watch the new videos
You look 50 bro.... wtf....
everything slowed down on subs because you were inconsistent with uploading
Channel failed because you literally left it vacant, not posting content for god knows how long, and other more dedicated and frequency youtubers leapfrogged you and gained your fan-base.
Your videos are not the same as the old ones. They're more unrelatable, a lot more fake, a lot more manufactured (the tacky giveaways is embarassing).
Ultimately you've changed as a person on camera and the CG we have just lacks the magic charisma which you had years ago which made us all fans. The real question is - is it a change of Christian on camera, or is this a real tangible change in your character?
We liked the humble, ambitious, fun Christian who wasn't materialistic. I learn from you - the ability of earning money isn't for materialistic things, its to be able to help your family, your loves ones, support them. That cars and watches are just glorified toys. That really touched me. But recently you're the polar opposite of those quotes.
Why start a new channel with 0 subs when you have 998k on here? Do you upload videos for us your loyal viewers or only to get new subs? I‘m disappointed bro. Just keep posting on here an keep writing your story, no need for a new account….
The last time I consistently watched the videos Javon was still the camera man 😂😅
What ever happened to him?
@@TheRoyalking761did you ever find out?
Make vids that are around 8-12 minutes. Don't clickbait. Go hard on the edit. Give value. Profit!?
He cares only of himself…
too short, 20-25 min is perfect
All I know is the click baits are irritating. I think that's what annoys people the most.
I didn't want to jump onto the comments with huge likes already, but my thoughts resonate the same sentiments. This move feels very emotional, Christian. I do think you were hoping to achieve more/higher this year, whether it be your pro card or surpassing the 1 million subscribers and not being able to maintain it. Very much like a human "mid life crisis", when things feel stagnant or don't go your way, the basic instinct is to overhaul and redo or revamp or this or that major change. Even your videos now, though produced at extremely high quality, seem over-bedazzled like they're trying to compensate for something. So many of us have been with you from the very beginning, and it's your core that has kept us here. Not all of these edits, moody shots of you sitting in your gym, huge giveaways (greatly appreciated/generous, but not necessary), or extravagance. This channel is your essence, and I hope you find some way to keep it in the loop with any new content you choose to share with us. You are already a champ.
I saw CG get work hard for the construction of his gym and his clothing line but noticed ZERO development of his character and personality on the screen, even in this video, he cant for the life of him string up a single coherent sentence without seeming like a high schooler rambling for a presentation he isnt prepared for. so in turn, he relied on clickbait and eventually hopped on gear in hopes of gaining more views. it's shameful to see
When you have money who cares ?
@@triplejay144 what a bad takeaway lmao
Yeah I am one that unsubbed a while back. The only recording during summer shredding, click bait, etc. all got old. Pretty sure others feel the same which is why it stopped growing.
Not sure how just starting a new channel without addressing that stuff fixes your problem.
Yup agreed became to inconsistent i like watching RUclipsrs regularly so if your not uploading regularly I kinda loose interest
I got tired of the clickbait and drama; that's why I unsubscribed. Best of luck with your future endeavours.
Same
You should start reposting here. I dont care how mutch money you have but your wasting time-money $$$
You aged tremendously. That’s what I noticed with people on peds. Sheesh!
Tremendously? You mean terribly? 😂
Christian, I ask this with all the admiration and respect that I have gained for you over the last few years: what exactly was the purpose of starting a new channel? I mean the new channel is literally just your first and last names swapped. All you had to do was get rid of the click bait, buzzfeed-esque titles and get back to the incredibly genuine and sincere roots this channel started with. It seems like you're putting way too much pressure on yourself, man. Who cares if the subscriber count has been stagnant? You have hundreds of thousands of people who watch you and look up to you.
I’ll tell you why; because 2 channels that get views make more money than 1. If he keeps this channel up, it’ll still get views and generate revenue. His new channel will do the same so that said; 2 sources of income from RUclips alone on top of all of the other stuff
@@AustinVirden That is not AT ALL how it works. If you have two channels basically doing the same content (or worse, try to move channels), you'd be lucky to get 30% of your subscribers to move over. Also, he isn't generating any additional revenue because he isn't posting on the old channel anymore. Even if those old videos are generating revenue still, there was no reason to switch over to something brand new. It's still the same 1 source of income except he probably lost a good 50% of real human subscribers (assuming some percentage are bots and brand accounts). We'll see how summer shredding goes but I promise you, from a revenue perspective, this switch didn't make sense.
The problem I think is that people click on the video for one thing & than that thing never happens & instead of those people helping you in the algorithm by liking and staying for watch time, they click off quickly and don't click again. And only the ones that know you and your clickbait watch it through because they aren't here for that clickbait but instead for the video you put out.
My advice/perspective:
1. enough with the click bait, it doesn't help & it def hurts longterm
2. keep it 90% raw. Just cg spilling his brain either to provide information, vlog style chattin shit, behind the scenes stuff from your perspective. or hell even just venting. Build up the personal connection with the audience again
3. think back to when you were young and in fitness (or whatever your target audience is) and think of what you would've wanted out of someone you were watching. Because I can humbly say, as a viewer since 2016 I truly could not care less about a gym edit. But if you break down what you're doing, why, what substitutes your doing for whatever reason, etc it would be more interesting for me.
4. I think you went in more of an entertainment route rather than informational. So you're only actually keeping 1 audience rather than 2. If you can merge the people that want entertainment/motivation with the people that want to learn what you're doing and what your reasonings are I think you will be better off.
5. I think it's fair enough to say for the most part you lost the relatability factor to most of the audience so if you start to watch some other creators that are popping off like sam sulek, shizzy, tnf, etc you can get an idea of what's working for them and see you can twist that and bring it out of you.
Just my thoughts. Love you cg and will be supporting always. You changed my life back when I was just a little fat high school kid and I will always be a part of the journey bc of that.
I subscribed in 2013, but haven’t enjoyed your videos in years. The 30+ minute videos just aren’t enjoyable
The “influencer” culture you created at Alphalete is cringe. Can’t go anywhere without someone filming something on a tripod along with clickbait titles and overly produced videos. Years ago you were authentic and real no steroids just a camera and talking to us like a friend. Happy for all your success but unfortunately it doesn’t hit the same. Wish u the best going forward man.. take your health serious.
You lost touch with the common person and you hardly put anything out.....That's why your subs are down.
the ADHD style editing is a huge turn off. Take a play out of Sam Sulek’s playbook.
The new channel won’t change unless your content does. Your videos are inauthentic, times are changing.
Is he really asking why there’s no growth on his channel? Idk, maybe don’t stop posting for like 6 months.
given the new channel now talks about gear use and similar stuff.....im now wondering if that was more of the reason for the 2nd channel, keeps this one monetized/protected from any channel strikes.
Just arrived here after watching some of your vedding on another channel, never watched any of your other videos but I'm baffled. You grew your channel to a place us small channels can only dream of and then you ended it to start a new one in the hopes of taking all your subscribers here to the new one? 🤔 It makes no sense, why not just stay out of the results and keep posting here. I'd bet if you stopped caring about how many subs you have you'd reach that elusive mil 😉
Wow this is confusing. Lol. Like it would make sense if you stopped making RUclips videos. But why not just make your new content here and change how you make videos for this channel. Seems really counter productive for reaching people on RUclips.
Feels like you sold out man. You got too corporate.
Feels like you abandoned all your friends and your recent videos feels cold.
Goodbye Christian Guzman……. Checks description below….. hello Christian Guzman ?
Christian Guzmán is now Guzman Christian…Awk
@@Cinderella_ehla same but different 🤔
lol
I discovered your channel end of 2015 and got addicted during summer shredding 2016 which motivated me to lose weight and then led me to meeting you at bodypower in 2016!
Your channel was so motivating and I learned so much from your summer shredding series. I feel since roughly 2018 the series lost its spark when it all became focused on alpha land. Which tbh is nice to see in the blogs but a lot of us liked your content for workouts, meal ideas and overall motivation to change our bodies. I feel that died off and it because click baity.
Best of luck on the new channel, but my honest opinion is to keep this one.
Bro lost 1M subs and said fuck it Lmfaooo
This is how it goes when you live or the world my friend, this is what happens when you put God aside. You’re trying to fill that void my guy. Men like you are a dime a dozen on steroids, hope you can turn your life around and choose Jesus.
You’ve put your body through hell and it shows. Too much starvation, and too many drugs. Take it easy, live normal, and it will stop the rapid aging. Good Luck.
Is he geared up? He’s losing his hair / it’s thinning and he’s aged.
Yes
I think the fitness industry/body building is dying tbh. Or moving to tiktok
Just shifting. People now days want podcast and shorts.
Of course it's dying, who cares about bloating muscles and messing with health
Bro quit 10k away from 1 mil
He hit 1 million. Then stopped uploading and lost subs before he ever made this video
I’ve been subscribed for years and the reason I rarely watch anymore is because you went from being authentic to a complete narcissist. We just want to see you be more personable, instead of having so many people following you around with a camera. Just my opinion. Just be you
Just tries to sell shit to us now
All your videos turned into click bait instead of legit content. So, people got bored and left. Even this video, in a way is yet again, click bait.
Never make a big decision when you’re reeling from a loss - Jessica Pearson
just 3 things to say ( i been following your videos since like 2018 i think)
1. I personally dont like the colors in the videos, is way to cold and out of "life"
2. WAY, WAAY to much clickbait man, thats very disappointing and in some point kinda disgusting
3. THe last one is that you try it too hard, it needs to be more natural, real, less edited, and is innecesarely cinematography sometimes too.
Hope the new channel goes down well, but i dont think is the solution.
damn he balding
What’s the point? Either switch up your content and do more of why people subbed to you, or carry on with what you were doing and make videos you enjoy making.
Why start a new channel that will just be a carbon copy of what this channels been for the last few years?
Guzman just does clickbait and over editing nowadays. Nobody cares. That’s why Sam Sulek is doing so well now. Just raw vlogging like what RUclips is supposed to be.
The comments section is on point in my opinion… Christian please stop trying to make crazy cinematic videos litteraly I don’t think anyone cares…. I think ppl loved to watch you when you were showing your inside life on growing your businesses, vlogs, etc. I don’t think there is a population who actually cares about bodybuilding…. Lol I really hope your SSC shoes go well, but man I always ask myself who actually cares for that
The last few years all you've uploaded was summer shredding. Seeing you cut is repetitive. Your video looking for a new home has way more views cause it's different than just seeing you hit the gym and telling us what you're eating
Does he not realise that the content is a snooze now? He is FAR from authentic and the new philosophy rambles are extremely cringe. Sounds like he read half a Ryan Holiday book and chatted to CBum about Stoicism and now he's preaching without any depth. Just be real man.....
The new wave of youtubers took over fast . Most of us dont care about a super professional style video and crazy editing .. i prefer the more raw vlog type style videos . Look how fast lots of these new guys grew straight to half a mil or more in a couple years some less then a couple years
You can see by the look at his younger self and his father...that without roids he would have all his hair.
Honestly there is no reason for a new channel you need to reevaluate the content you are producing . Is not about the movie style videos all the time but I’ll definitely subscribe to the second channel even though I don’t think is needed at all .
Inconsistent uploads, clickbait, thumbnails that are flat out lies. Definitely one of the most annoying RUclips channels I subscribe to. Won’t be following you to the new channel
Man sold out on his fans. Basically said thank you for giving me your $$$ and peaced out. He will be back when his fans stop buying his clothing 🤣
I told you 100 times in your comments that nobody cares for all the edits you put in the vids. The pointless drone shots, the useless transitions, it’s all just dead space not fun to watch…it’s hard to sit through your videos sometimes
Chris looked a lot more healthier in the early videos. Now looks like gear took over and bald spots.
You just seem so fake nowadays, look at Sam Sulek's growth and realize that people just want authenticity.
I don't think making a new channel is going to fix the plateau. People have caught on to the clickbait, Mr Beast type content hamster wheel and it feels like every video is the exact same. "Hook, Retain, Reward". On the other hand, TikTok is crushing it because it's so RAW and there's no fancy editing making you feel like your attention is being squeezed for retention purposes.
I would say, (My Opinion) if you bring back the classic RAW CG videos, you'll grow the right audience. Which brings me to my next point.
I see a ton of RUclipsrs get so caught up with the numbers and once they reach 1M they fall from the face of the earth because they upload for the numbers and not for what they truly want to make. I'd rather have 998K subscribers and have a loyal following of 40K people than 3M and still only have 40K people loyal to my content.
I believe the moment you completely forget about the numbers, that's when you actually start seeing growth. There's no social media algorithm tactic that can break authenticity.
Yeh, seems a bit weird and rash to be honest Christian. Very unlike you. The competition prep is affecting you.
I love Christians mindset and content. Yet, personally, if feel there has been a lot of "hidden advertisement" on this channel. For example a lot of showing clothing and stuff, non-directly advertising. Yet those non-direct advertisements, i think, have brought a lot of awareness for Christians businesses, and, i think, allowed huge growth there. Things like Alphaland have huge success because of all the awareness Christian has been able to generate with RUclips channel. But I feel lots of content may bore a lot of peak mindset people in area of training, purpose, mindset-building, hardcore gym training etc. If there is a lot of advertising on a channel, it effectively makes the videos hit with watered down motivation to certain viewers.
in any case, keep up the energy, Christian. You are relevant and important to great many of us! And, Thank you!
GEAR and social media ruined this man
lack of self-discipline ruined him. look how good he looked here. now he keeps binge eating constantly and looks natty while taking test for years. literally no reason to look so bad while taking test. he could look similar to this but with a bit more bodyfat, but keeps binge eating and not training consistently
988K vs 56K subs on the new channel, this was a bad move.
Way too much click bait, way too many cinema edits, looking unnatural, unhealthy and roided up (not relatable for 99% of people) acting jittery and uncomfortable / rushing speaking on camera, a complete obsession with getting massive even shown clearly in body language by constantly tensing- in my opinion these are the reasons the channel is dead.
I think most people just want to watch a natural, happy and successful person like previously. (Not obsessed, unnatural, nervous, chasing outrageous goal’s constantly etc) the irony is, nobody will watch this because they will assume it’s click bait as always.
I think if you showed more behind the scenes of building the business (biggest challenges faced that week and how you dealt with it), biggest lessons, how you’re making decisions on the fly, that would be a gamechanger. The online “business influencer” space is exploding right now and to see someone literally BUILDING a business and vlogging it I think would attract a massive audience. With all the online businesses starting up there are plenty of “how to do this and that” channels but very few “watch me to do it in real time” channels”, and there are plenty of people hungryy to SEE someone doing it.
🤦🏾♀️ Don't end this channel please. The consistently is the only thing hurting you. I think people gravitated to RUclips because we didn't have to wait months and months for a new season of episodes. We don't need a movie every week but a weekly update/vlog would entertain your subscribers even after summer shredding. You have so much going outside of summer shredding that you could make videos about. I personally would have loved to hear more about the home remodel. Just simple things showing the more human side of you could be video topics.
Being honest because your content doesn't have sense. Good shots, poor narrative.
I can't lie i laughed at this. What do you do when RUclips isn't working? YOU make a new RUclips channel. LOL. Bad move Imo but I still respect you for all the content.
Christian start a microneedling + oral minoxidil + 0.5mg of Finasteride regiment as soon as possible.
Is it just me or has his hair really thinned out
what gear are you on?
Slightly confused by this decision. You could have just renamed this channel and had the audience help name it with like a $5000 gift card to your online store. The reason why the channel is stale is because the audience doesn’t feel engaged with the current content.
Man been watching your vids for 7-8 years and I’ve seen the change the last few but I’ll always subscribe to anything you’re doing!
Not gonna lie. Not clicking on that new channel link.
the main reason your channel and people like Charles Trippy aren't getting as many views or Subs anymore is because the whole daily Vlog Style videos are not as popular as they once were.you're still lucky you're getting 30 to 40,000 views every video.and probably 4 years ago the people that were watching you are no longer watching you anymore people now tune in to watch podcast and reaction videos but also RUclips is focusing on RUclips shorts more than long form content. so starting a new channel is not good
Mike Thurston smashing it tho he’s got the right balance of travel lifestyle vids and lifting vids
@@chrisgill8023 that's true but even Casey neistat don't even vlog much any more. Because lvogs are dead but he's Chris makes good videos
@@treverpitts never heard of that guy
I think I echo others here when I say the style of videos changed and I just, kind of, for me anyway, stopped relating? I used to watch you religiously in 2016-2018/19, but since Alphaland, the videos are just not as raw? I found Maxx through your earlier videos and now I watch him RELIGIOUSLY. His videos are raw, and fun, and I feel like I'm watching a mate, relatable, etc not an influencer. I think you just need to be chlll with it, pick the camera up yourself, and let the audience in again. I started to feel like you had pulled away from your audience and I felt on the outside...I miss the Alaska vlogs, the chats when you're going through it keeping us motivated. I don't think your audience are all aspiring pro bodybuilders...We are aspiring entrepreneurs, normal folk, normal lives, trying to make it and I personally used to love your videos as I knew I could relate to you and aspire to follow you. Go back to the old Guzman, you got this!
Damn you went on that juice hard core. That hairline disappearing faster than your sub count.
