[@FrozenSurf]

Don’t insult the man.

[@kimdecker8901]

For a 27-year-old, Martin is bloody wise. The more I listen to him, the more I admire him and value his observations. Can't wait to see what he does in Prague and beyond! Thanks for another great pod, Fouad et al!

[@anthonybenincasa]

The face on James watching that chat is really intense lol

[@johndoubleu5792]

Not boring Fouad. You guys show a human side sometimes thats actually cool to see. Cool that some of you came from humble beginnings and crushed life 🤘

[@BudoJuJutsu]

@jameshollingshead - freak of a BB (you give a lot of respect to all, but you're a Br BB Legend yourself!) & just a Great human being. A humble Lion!

[@EchelonDon]

James needs to play a viking in some shows/movies.

Good news about the UK supplement progress, love the content I always got them playing in the back round keep it up 👍💪

[@LusciousBodybuilding]

1:11:08 Fouad telling Ben that they don’t have AC in the UK like he didn’t grow up there 😂

[@marcosromo7640]

[@Misterious_xxas3]

Just use pressure cooker for chicken and potatoes it will done in less time. Potato:when whistle starts do 15 min in cooker. Soft and good. Chicken :when whistle starts do 12-10 min in cooker. Soft and good.

[@spencersivco8503]

I hope the dog shower thing never dies. Makes me laugh so fuckin much

[@carlosdueza6246]

Keep these live podcasts coming

[@Justin_House]

Guys, sincerely THANK YOU for your candor - can't convey how helpful this chat's been. I gotta enquire about JH's gym.

[@kongbbulk1162]

Fouad, the uk is not Linked to Europe markeds, you need to put your warehouse within the EU. Else there will be Import fees, and would be the Same as shipping from a warehouse in USA. So UK warehouse will only go for uk markets while a EU warehouse will go for alle eu

[@FouadAbiad]

I understand there will be import fees. The shipping itself will be much cheaper. For now the warehouse is in the UK, later on we will have one in the EU.

[@boysilverrr]

The deep talks are what got me into the pod in the first place, this is a good trio 🤛

[@shawndaniel2719]

I’m got my hands on original parabolon back in 1997! Was amazing!!!!!!!

[@kenzo-12345]

Hi Fouad - There was a topic / question (quite a serious one) I was hoping you could address on the next pod - how rife is bulimia in pro bodybuilding circles? Appreciate any input please. Thanks 👍

[@pramathanarayana867]

I was falling asleep on the bus listening to the podcast and the progesterone talk woke me up lol. When women are on their menses for 3-5 days progesterone is the lowest. It's actually the withdrawal of progesterone that causes the lining to shed. Further Caber or Cabergoline is a Dopamine agonist that reduces levels of prolactin. Technically speaking high prolactin causes low progesterone and interferes with regular cycles. Decreasing prolactin does not decrease progesterone.

[@calebswartzpt]

I put salsa, guacamole, and Greek yogurt on lots of my chicken/beef rice meals. Drizzle on some no calorie Taco Bell sauce and some shredded lettuce and it’s my walking taco. When I’m feeling super fancy i buy quest protein chips and crush them over the top.

[@kenzo-12345]

The only thing Chris beats Martin on is hairline 😬

[@BIGRYNO619]

Facts

[@Simonbphysique]

Yesss, finally hosstile in UK! 👌🙌

[@Bnxn_worldwide]

These are gold!!

[@datnip79]

Bro I used to cook mad rice for a week and leave it in fridge as I ate it over the week. Never knew that was no buneo

[@coltday4000]

James sense of humor is some of the best ever 🤣

[@LC3Health]

Martin is like James: being an encyclopedia of bodybuilding knowlege.

[@reverendterminator]

James, backdrop are dope!!

[@markbodell1552]

Great show again lads

[@JKWOOD3535]

Just wondering but why is fouads podcast the only one on all of KZbin that isn't High definition? Why is it such low resolution??

[@shawndaniel2719]

Eggs a turkey is the only thing I can eat at 49.and only jasmine rice. And can only fridge and reheat it to get resistant starch from it 👍🏻

[@Malcolmcampbell1997]

Rice question: I make my rice for the day in the morning. Then i eat it throughout day… the rice cooker is on the “warm” setting all day and has a sealed lid… is this not okay to do???

[@Bubs58]

If it’s in the temperature danger zone between 40-140F is when bacteria is growing the most.

[@mariastewart6661]

40:43 hopefully you have a buffer person who off sets the bad parents, this person was my grandma. This all comes from the ACE studies of how many things you have had to go through at a young age, I think a lot of people that lift or bodybuilders went through this and find comfort in applying yourself to lifting and taking control of your body and life

[@srgillette12]

46:13 had me cracking up James really is the moderator

[@BazookaJoe93]

Damn Fouad from the projects

[@jeffc9713]

Knife and fork for choc bar. Jerry’s like I saw someone eating M&Ms with a spoon haha

[@ronmorris1973]

Fouad, Brown Canadian should taste like a mix between Hummus, Canadian bacon, and apple cores 😂😂

[@Big_Thony]

Saving this for later 36:00

[@chadroth7266]

Hummus flavor protein!? Sounds like a punishment🤣🤮It's episodes like these, that really help improve my mental health. Huge fan! Chad - Chicago, IL P.S. I have two American Bullies and I wash them in a bathtub 🤣🤣

[@_witchdoctor]

Yo ben chow looks like he straight out of 2005 with that tan. We know you aint that dark home boy.

[@jaqobbb901]

ah yes, the best part of friday

[@brentontriplett4795]

it sucks because sometimes the most peeled guys don’t work harder than the guys who aren’t peeled, sometimes they just don’t have as hard of a time to get peeled and the guys working their asses off and starving are the ones who can’t get lines in their glutes🤷🏻‍♂️

[@smackmac11]

Ramys legs were always off putting to me. They looked almost cartoonish.

[@Tomlandstrom]

Please talk about vodybuilding

[@waltermartin6466]

What time does the live come on

[@tedflores40]

All my Asian friends and family who have been cooking rice in the morning leaving it out and eating it until the night or the next morning for decades 😅😅

[@FouadAbiad]

My Asian friends are the opposite.

[@Lobo513]

I was a Rami fan and thought he couldve won at least 4 olympias. No one had better legs than him

[@---th3wl]

Question for brochat:what was your last concert and do u go to see metallica in toronto in april?

[@FouadAbiad]

Yes

[@thinblueline5000]

Fouad, Another good podcast brother! Bodybuilding is a great sport! Sad the drugs have to be a part.

[@chrisstell08]

Nate epler and Justin shier front lat are pretty gnarly

[@MarkLePage]

Justin has a REALLY good Front Lat Spread.

[@calebswartzpt]

Buy simply potatoes and throw them in the air fryer. Amazing and easy

[@jt618]

Do you think Mike and Jeff will eventually move past their situation and make amends or at the very least be cordial? I guess not everyone gets along with each other.

[@kenzo-12345]

I doubt it. Mike comes across quite stubborn and set in his ways **(Plus I doubt he even gives a to55 about breaking bread with that child!)

[@user-xs4rm1ti8f]

People get pushed every day. It’s like not a big deal.

[@FouadAbiad]

Does it really matter? Why do they have to be friends? They’re two grown men, they can decide privately if they want to talk about it or never again.

[@JokerandDr.Q]

I think Roman has a very edgy front lat spread like Chris

[@anythingneverything6352]

Have to say, it was nice for the Luke talk. But it made me really sad! Loved is humor, and because losing him at the beginning of the covid nonsense, it made it difficult as we all relied on the podcast during those lock downs

[@moefitness3831]

Fouad, If Ronnie stayed the same size as 99 and never grew after that… would anyone ever beat him? Did he have to grow? Would jay have beat him in 2001? We both agree that’s the best physique ever but hindsight is 20/20.

[@moefitness3831]

Also great podcast as per usual thank you for all the great content sir 💪🏽

[@FouadAbiad]

Yes Jay would have beat him if he didn’t continue to improve

[@moefitness3831]

@@FouadAbiaddoesn’t everyone agree that 99 Ronnie is the best physique of all time tho? So is that false since its beatable? We’d have to say 2003 Ronnie then?

[@FouadAbiad]

It’s the greatest physique of all time. That doesn’t mean it’s the most unbeatable physique of all time. Ie. Lee Haney could be one of the top 5-10 best physiques of all time. That doesn’t mean that there isn’t 10 people that can’t beat him. Different eras bring different qualities. Most unbeatable physique of all time maybe Ronnie 2001 or 2003.

[@danielspencer2775]

I agree 👍

[@amvilla12]

Brown Canadian, poutine flavored 😂

[@MrJWINER]

Second for putting on Spotify

[@shotabeberashvili4193]

Hoss some baklava protein 😂 I want the royalty haha

[@TheJuggernautt]

Lukes front lat was 🔥

[@pramathanarayana867]

Cod and potatoes sound so good

[@joereed9580]

Chris with some time to pack on size could be what everyone’s hoping he’s gonna be next weekend. But he can’t fill out this quick, a couple years and he could but not in a 8 week turn around or whatever it is

[@trentlarson3457]

Freezer yes. A Big Turk frozen is the best.

[@jessesymons4335]

James needs to exclusively use the hot tub background

[@MeLoNHeAd00]

54:22 william bonac after he was second at the olympia .

[@LennardvanEerden-l6w]

1:58:37 Cruiser, naked or sport.. It really depends on your percentage. Naked adds 10% to your total, sports adds 15% (20% if your leathers and helmet colour-match the bike) Cruisers get a little more complex, Japanese cruisers add at least 20% and is a statement that you identify as a lesbian, triumph are neutral 0% whereas Harleys actually subtract a minimum of 10% depending on the model.. So if you're sitting at 21% or less, go for it but any higher than that and your risking being higher than Iains 41% 🤣🤣

[@Pjwalther9k]

I can’t even take 100mg of tren a week it totally fucks my sleep and my appetite. I get stronger and look better but it’s not worth it. Maybe like 3 or 4 weeks out from a show if I decided to compete.

[@dannyarganda]

Enjoy The Ments Arnold Poster. It Piss.

Durka durka 😂 I love when Ben's on

[@felipemorfin4751]

With the anxiety , why don’t more bodybuilders get on SSRIS .?

[@FouadAbiad]

They do they just don’t talk about it

[@hulk7280]

andrew has the best front lat

[@irvingzisman3252]

Anxiety is nonsense, it's just a normal part of life and everyone has it. You gotta just sack up and push forward. Great show Fouad!

[@FouadAbiad]

Not nonsense at all. It is normal part of life but that doesn’t mean it can’t be crippling or defeating if it’s strong enough.

[@SBLifts]

If Chris took 1-2 years to do an open transition and put 10lbs of tissue in the right places then I think he could have a chance to push the top guys, but even then, to push guys in that top group would be challenging.

[@danielgould2938]
