[@mountaindog1]

FOUAD is the man!!!

[@TheMolina297]

Give my man John the heart reaction.

[@danwilkinson1869]

You are the man mountaindog

[@chezaraeyothers5164]

Your post is how I just found him so thanks...and he now has a new subscriber

[@HansonFerrari]

Yes John!

[@FouadAbiad]

mountaindog1 learned from the best! Thanks John!

[@DrSwole]

Fouad has such a calm, wise-sounding voice lol

[@DrSwole]

Thor Odinson yeah ahaha

[@BoerboelBladeandAriaTV]

Pity he wasnt calm on the rx muscle debate with lee preist he came across like an ass hole that spat his dummy out. And hey i like his channel.

[@FouadAbiad]

Kevin Musiol I think I was calm and Lee didn’t say anything at all in that debate

[@FouadAbiad]

Ask Dr. Swole thank you

[@ryankierulf8942]

Fouad Abiad Can I use this to also lose some weight as well? And when you go to the gym do you start or end with cardio?

[@joshuatriplett8877]

I like how he said when you eliminate the emotions all thats left is the numbers and the progress. That rung a bell in how that can help with anyone looking to achieve at a high level.

[@freddubose5539]

Facts.

[@tomaskavecky2010]

I am not a bodybuilder or a pro fitness. I am just a normal guy with IT job going to the gym 4 times a week just to feel and look good and the information from these videos are super helpful. I find Fouads videos as one of the best. No bs, just as it is. The ethics, tips and dedication behind it is just amazing. Man, you may not realize it but your views and approaches on doing things either 100% or not at all affects more people than you think. My gf is running her own business and finds your "reality check" posts very appealing and motivating as she can realize that every person can have downtimes, re-focus etc. and no matter what sports or business you're doing, the work ethics, dedication and focus must be there. I hope and wish you to hit the pro stage for the competitions again and smash it because you deserve that and also you can/will achieve that.

[@FouadAbiad]

Tomas Kavecky thanks for the message man that means a lot!

[@ibrahimzamil6986]

Fouad you are really professional and expert I know that because everything you do is simple and straightforward without drama and BS

[@FouadAbiad]

Cutting on almost 4100 cals is amazing. That’s more than my bulk as a mere mortal.

[@monpseudo2754]

dude is 275 lbs tough

[@YeahRight825]

Fouad, I've been saying that for years about not caring if you eat the same thing every day, and about taste, etc. You're in this lifestyle to get the maximum out of your food from your workouts. Jay said it best in one of the old videos when he was getting ready for an Olympia back in the day. He said that as a bodybuilder, especially during pre-contest prep, you 'eat like a dog' lol. You know, in the sense that we feed dogs basically the same thing each and every day with no variation. When he said that, it stuck in my head and I never forgot it.

[@LesleyTimbol]

You appear to be very relaxed and comfortable in front of the camera so you make it look easy but I know it's not. Congrats on consistently giving out solid content, to the point, and easy to understand. Keep up the great work Fouad!

[@YeahRight825]

I agree, he's definitely a natural at it 👌🏼

[@prashantjuwatkar9506]

Very true

[@bulkinharder4709]

I’ve watched the food channel, Hell’s Kitchen , food tubes , but nothing beats a Fouad Abiad Food video please make more it keeps me eating clean brother

[@FouadAbiad]

Music List lol thanks

[@antonioharvey2130]

Truth

[@brandensoutdoorb-channel8084]

I wash my food before eating. It's always clean.

[@cmar601]

Man as a beginner I LOVE this sort of content. Highly recommended you to my friends.

[@SPM-tv]

My favorite bodybuilding channel on KZbin man no bs straight to the point and easily digestible

[@FouadAbiad]

Subzero 🙏🏽

[@humbertosalas3258]

No BS straight to the point... that’s why I’m here! Thanks boss

[@drewe9514]

Was about to type a similar comment

[@tchirayath30]

Man i’m the same way, keep things simple, some people just don’t understand that concept, this is real bodybuilding.

[@HughMiron]

Request : When you do the re-feed video, if you can talk about the calories on the re-feed day vs. calories on your cutting days and the difference between the two (if any). I see some BB'ers go a lot higher calories on re-feed day and wondering how this would effect progress of the cut. Thanks Hoss, keep killing the youtube game.

[@rogerfournier3284]

I can listen to Fouad all-day long, very informative.

[@markskenandore1717]

Seeing Hoss post some new content is literally best part of the day. Loving the quality stuff keep it up man👍

[@markskenandore1717]

@Reinder H.M I appreciate the concern man, but its pretty condescending of you to be telling me what and how much I should enjoy any given thing in my life. I hope you stick to the stuff you enjoy and try not to judge other people for what they happen to like. Best wishes.

[@danwilkinson1869]

Reinder H.M why?

[@FouadAbiad]

Mark Skenandore I know what you meant man, thank you for the comment

[@firelordpabu1994]

I've subbed to very few channels over my 15 years of KZbin lurking, but you have definitely earned this one. As someone who spent 30 years as a scrawny nerd who is just getting into fitness/lifting at 31 and always struggled to gain any mass, this channel has had the most easily digestible, concise, and well presented info I've found in the last year since I started researching and lifting. You've helped me dispel myths and confirm conclusions I have come to over the last year, specifically about dietary issues (eating the same shit every day, worrying mostly about macros and not excluding specific foods for bullshit reasons, explaining why/when to eat what different types of food) Keep it up man, I'll be following your vids from now on.

[@FouadAbiad]

I appreciate the message man and I'm glad I could help you in some small way!

[@finaplexEOD]

It's like we all do the same thing. Every damn day. Although seeing someone else do it especially a pro you've been following for years....makes it awesome as hell. Keep it up bro, love the content!!!

[@Coop88-pittsburgh]

Just figured out my macros by watching this and i am set to getting 2 my goal w clean eating.. thankyou

[@MoKanCatfishing]

One of the best explanations of a simple cut I have seen man. Simple can be boring but it is easier to maintain.

[@Ahmad-Str]

I love how non-chalant and genuine he is, the content is so easy to "digest" if you get what I mean

[@ogbsquared]

Fouad, you’re officially my Dad. Congratulations! Keep up the awesome content.

[@FouadAbiad]

Brian B lol thank you son

[@TheRIZeffect]

I like how honest this guy is on his diet suggestions. It’s very personal.

[@pennyholley4539]

Fouad is one of my gurus!! I love the advice don’t put feelings into your food!!! Us gals need to hear that!! You are right up there with mountaindog and doucette!! Love truths without being fed BS!!! Thank you for the quality!!!

[@FouadAbiad]

I appreciate it, to be honest tho Im not a guru I just show people what I did to make my own gains and help it translates in their training.

[@getmoneyxrbm]

Being a fan of the sport I was aware of Fouad obviously but discovering his KZbin channel was one of the best things I’ve done as of recent. Been going through the motions of training and half assing my diet for awhile but watching your vids has reminded me why I love this shit as well as givin me ideas, training tips, recipes that I actually want to eat and they’re also entertaining and funny as fuck. I appreciate the effort and your honesty.

[@FouadAbiad]

Thanks for watching!

[@donsantos8798]

Easy and simple, easy to follow, reason why we love these videos.

[@Justinsox39]

This is unbelievable. He’s giving away his secrets for free. Props to Fouad

[@santafe2011ful]

Thx Fouad, great job on the education. In even more simplistic terms which may help you with your clients, is that if they cut 500 calories per day from their current daily eating which is maintaining their current bodyweight and composition (especially from the sugars and/or carbs), they should come close to dropping close to 1 lbs per week because there are 3500 calories in 1 lbs of fat. Maybe too simplistic but at the end of the day, eating below your daily maintenance caloric intake from the sugars/carbs will undoubtedly result in fat lose. Cuz I'm sure many of your clients are not 'hardcore bodybuilders ' but rather people who train semi consistently but want some form of results. Anyway, great video, great education, keep up the great work. Glad you're a fellow Canuck!

[@genxer7893]

Watching him explain stuffs on whiteboard brought me back to my chemistry lecture class in college. My professor had similar demure as Fouad; very calm and steady tone while explain in detail.

[@KGashi93]

Damn thats some content you'd pay a lot of money for somewhere else

[@juancarmona3818]

Yes sir and he gave it away here free

[@stuartcallaway3281]

Just got my pre workout delivered. Covid ER nurse here working 5 days a week 13 hours a day. I got fat so now its time to fix myself, Thanks for the videos.

[@8DEE8686]

I really like these food videos. It helps me to get a great idea of how to gain weight without eating trash. I like this video in particular because after the food we train and I learn more techniques. If you can help with snacks that would be excellent. I have been eating honey roasted peanuts and cashews to get a little more calories in my diet

[@jeremymichaelson7197]

You could also try macadamia nuts. Very high in calories and very tasty. Easy to pound a bag of them and get a extra 1000 calories

[@8DEE8686]

@@jeremymichaelson7197 thanks for the info. i appreciate the helpful reply

[@Avatarkyd]

No one has ever broken it down like that AND I've watched alot of FitLife meal plan videos. Thank you brotha

[@avengerxunb7728]

This was very informative and simple to follow and understand. Love your work, you've gained a fan 👊

[@willieshelton4284]

Ive always asked people to help me with little things like this, and nobody never would. So the information you give me, i can transform my body to how it functions. Thanks man you have no idea how much motivation and help this really is. Ive falling back into my old habbits, and been lazy for a few months. But im ready to get back at it, and look good naked. Thanks brother for everything you do! Keep up the good work. I look forward to more videos in the future if you make them.

[@jasonvidal5956]

You’re the best bro! I’m sure this helped a lot of people! 💪

[@j718wn]

This is motivating! I came here after watching a doc about Kai Greene just started going back to the gym I just need to get more muscles, I recently stop eating sweets processed sweets and funny thing is I don't even crave it.

[@frameofmind229]

The man, the myth, the legend 💪🏼👌🏼👍🏼

[@gongsu]

Removing the emotions from eating. That’s what I needed to hear! Thanks for the free videos.

[@liftingheavy1]

I agree 💯 with this. That's the biggest issue I face with eating. Cook it, eat it, and watch the change, it really is just that simple. Find a way to be satisfied with your food and your gains and enjoy the show. It really is all in the numbers. Good shit sir!

[@alexkent9921]

Thanks hoss 👌🏻. I tend to struggle When bulking with getting a bit too soft, so will Try your multipliers for my macros and see how that goes :)

[@albertcaballero9823]

This is something I can do,thank you for taking the time to point ME in the right direction!

[@alanmock1]

back here again for the cooking show while eating a burger.

[@samadventures1632]

I LOVE how clear Fouad is and how simple it is ❤️

[@ultrafloss492]

Fouad! Story of my life diet, lol. However, these days I try to incorporate a lot of variation of foods within the macro groups. Have you read Tom Venuto's 'burn the fat feed the muscle'? Maybe he would be interesting for the podcast as well. Thanks and I really like the new series! Ps. Maybe it would be interesting to touch upon fiber strategies in order to manipulate food volume vs satiation.

[@bobbyc87_]

Eliminate your emotions and your feelings this is what you're left with... the numbers! Real talk!

[@BigGuyPrime]

thank you my bro, not alot of bodybuilder give out meal plans like much appreciated...

[@user-wh6sp6st8s]

I feel like I'm odd in that I could eat chicken and rice or pasta 6 times a day everyday and be completely content.

[@RICHFRVR]

Yea It sounds hard at first but if you know how to cook decently it isnt so bad and you get used to it. It depends on each person ig.

[@joshcannon23]

This is golden advice. People pay tons of money for this kind of game. And for this guy to take time out his day to break down this stuff and give it to us for free is awesome. I greatly appreciate you for what you do sir!!!!! As real as it gets

[@desertlove3350]

As a beginner, I was so lost about nutrition. You are a blessing. Best wishes

[@yasirtahirkheli74]

I have been following the same way of cooking chicken as you taught about a year ago. Before that, preparing chicken was a pain in the ass but you made it look so easy and I prepare it for the whole week. Secondly, I highly appreciate your honesty while explaining everything in detail and publicly especially the protein intake which has always been a headache for me. But you put it out simply and very clearly. Great content man! And bless you in all your efforts 😍

[@kumatibusiness5426]

Fouad, I have just discovered your channel a couple of days ago. it is full of gems and very entertaining .. you are awesome man

[@aynemauwasabi]

this video is amazing! straight to the goal, no BS. Food for results, easy to make easy to eat. Not making eating a mathematical problem. All what I need to recalibrate my diet. Thanks Fouad! Keep making these great contents. Strength to you man!

[@JoeSantulli4114]

F-ing solid, no BS info. It’s also where I need the most help. Love the nutrition videos, Fouad!

[@FouadAbiad]

Thanks!

[@Pandie916]

This was surprisingly easy and pleasing to watch. I’m a female and was curious of what a yoked guy would eat so I shouldn’t eat the same amount. Turns out I’ve been eating too much protein. Oops. But your explanations made sense with no confusing calculations. Thanks for getting to all the points.

[@keabetswetjale2906]

I appreciate this channel so much! this man is awesome

[@papawade3103]

Keep it up Fouad! Your videos and podcasts get me through my night shift, motivate me to eat my meals and get my lifts and sleep. Honestly you're my inspiration man. Good luck on the diet!

[@FouadAbiad]

Thanks man I appreciate that!

[@Radiologist1991]

You really gotta appreciate the time Fouad puts into a video if you take in account every single cut scene. He has to look at probably hours of video to make a video almost flow naturally. gotta appreciate him.

Such a warrior. Ty for all ur advise. Greetings from a Hungarian.

[@scottloy89]

Best explanation I have ever heard...will implement. I struggle to balance out or understand the dynamics as clear as you stated. Which leaves me to try to figure out calorie intake to bulk.

[@justina8143]

usually bodybuilders give terrible diet advice and for the life of me I don't get why people take advice from people just because they have alot of followers.. BUT his advice is pretty solid. This is from someone who has studied for years at UF and has credentials. good job

[@crittela]

This video just made me subscribe. These are the types of videos the ppl need, not drama bullshit. Honest, and real information, to the point. You'll definitely stay successful making content like this, good job man keep it up.

[@FouadAbiad]

Matteo Crittela I don’t do drama on my page. Anything to uplift bodybuilding. 👊🏽

[@thewikwakdj]

I look forward to seeing this progress. I tend to have difficulty in the calorie department. I'm currently 219 trying to get down to 190 while keeping muscle. I gain at 1900 a day with plus a bit more with cheat meals twice a week (Saturday night dinners and Sunday breakfasts) currently doing push,pull,legs with Saturdays off

[@stingernitro]

i like the fact you took the time to explain how you diet and why you do things the way you do and what worked and didn't. i respect that. i know i am at the point i want to drop weight to show more definition from my martial arts training. i will soon add weight training to it, especially since i hope to train for wrestling soon, but also because i want to make changes to myself and my diet and training too. i really appreciate this and will definitely take everything into consideration and do it to heart. peace and blessings.

[@alexandrudumitru2435]

Love this simple diet. Been eating like this for 8 years now..even on a bulk. Some people call me crazy but i enjoy eating like this. Simple, effective and easy to make. Another great video from Fouad. Man so glad i found your channel. Learning alot of things and seeing that there are alot of things i do the way it is supposed to do makes me proud of myself😅💪

[@ericplatt5749]

Very intelligent individual. I'm so happy that guys like Fouad make these videos to help up and coming bodybuilders or just average men and women who are curious. Also it shows ignorant people that bodybuilders aren't just meatheads with zero intelligence. Thanks Fouad.

[@FouadAbiad]

Clint Darden glad you’re learning something man

[@massivepump3059]

Just found your channel Fouad, and damn I love it. You’re a great dude man. Super honest and open on your diet strategies. I’ve paid for a meal plan before and I feel you’ve given me a slightly better one for free. My dietician was great but I find it amazing in a time of everyone trying to make every penny of off others that you give it here for free. New fan here bro!

[@MegaEnduras]

Always bast videos from Fouad Abiad.(I am happy to see the salt at 1:34 from my country-Greece- named "Ariston" that means "the best-perfect").

[@urracan]

Exactly what I needed to hear. Thank you man. God bless.

[@Caveman_ultra]

You seem like a real and straight to the point kind of mentor and that's what we need to help others succeed so I thank you for that. I've been looking for inspiration on a diet and this is really helpful I think. My only question to you if you see this would be if you'd suggest maybe putting protein shakes in there to help with cost and accessibility with a busy work schedule.

[@thedarkknightwillrise23]

No bullshit Clear cut... to the point knowledge Great video Fouad " The great " Abiad 🙌♥️
