Fouad has absolutely killed it.. considering he wasn’t a top 5 Olympia guy he’s done so well. I thought him and Sam was a perfect fit.. I never believed the stories about him holding him back from doing stuff.. you can tell by the car Sam drives he don’t care about much besides getting jacked

[@krazus2036]

[@dakotasonney2142]

I feel like foudaddy gets to much hate for the sam shit..I miss luke

[@antonhallergren588]

Fouad gets hate for literally everything without people even thinking it through or understanding anything about business. Look at sam under hosstile. 400k to almost 4 million in a year. He went from well... unknown in the industry outside of tiktok to rivaling cbum in popularity... Do ppl really think it would've happened had he stayed on tiktok? Samson too. He was a nobody working a full time job now he's arguably the best bodybuilder we have seen coming up in years. Did they need to work? Yea of course but their work is literally traveling the world. A luxury to most ppl.

[@yusram8182]

Wrong, before sams even with under hosstile and going to sign for them hes literally still growing not to mention his channel blows up completely and going on trend among fitness industry out of nowhere

[@JamesBeneventi]

Actually, that is why Hostile wanted Sam because he was getting the views and the Subs without the Hostile brand. There is no way Fouad would have signed him if he didn't bring the followers and audience that he had gained on his own. Sam is lucky that he tapped into a niche that Hostile didn't have and along came Fouad to scoop up on those benefits. Sam just saw that his compensation $$$ wasn't worth being held and controlled by a brand. If Sam plays his cards correct, he will kill it on his own. Best of luck to Sam and to Fouad.

I start on Hosstile Supplements as soon as they came out…I’ve been blessed to have the opportunity to try all the best supplements, 30 plus years of working with Chad and Kim and the Pros Chad trained, getting the info from the Pros of what works and what’s crap, I knew Foaud loved the sport and wanted to put out the best so I stopped using any other supplements and when strictly Hosstile…so from 2020 till now I only use Hosstile and I’ve made great gains in strength and size…I have RSD, lots of pain and see lots of Doctors since 2006, I’ve had my Doctors check out Hosstile and some of them now use Hosstile. …I will only use Hosstile.

I really like Fouad, I've been following him and watching his content and bro chats for years and years. He's very mature and just a very real down to earth dude. Doesn't bullshit around. The guy's done so much for the sport and he's got a good community of close friends by his side and they are all genuine guys themselves. Him and Jay are two that I respect and admire the most. Maybe it's an age thing (being im in my mid 40's) but I just connect with them better I know they have both been in the game a long time and are knowledgeable. And for all the hate he's been getting for the whole Sam thing, I'm not sure how people don't realize that Fouad literally gave Sam his first break into the professional bodybuilding scene.

It depends on your goal and what you’re using. The more gear and synergy between different things = ability to turn a larger surplus into muscle tissue and less into fat compared to running less gear. It depend on your goal, your health, risk tolerance and many other things how much of a surplus/ strategy you might choose
