Derek I have the upmost respect for you. You showed your true character and the integrity you have is 2nd to none. You sharing your faith as well makes you a true champion. You are a true champion on and off the stage.
Congrats Derek! That was definitely a divine push to get you backstage. I was excited to see you with Hany and to get the title. This is the start of a new 212 Champion Era. Best to both of you!
Incredibly proud of Derek for sharing his struggles with the world. It’s one thing to be the champion because of your body but another thing to really own your impact as a champion and be vulnerable . Huge fan of Derek and long time follower and fan of everything Hany has done. This was an awesome podcast. Thank you guys!
You know why I like Derek other than his great physique? He's a follower of Jesus unapologetically in a time where it's looked down upon. Keep shouting from the rooftops Derek! 😎😎😎 We're with you 100% bro! Thanks for sharing your struggles and helping others.
Thank you so much for this podcast!!! I also want to say thanks for opening up about your life with us, and probably relating to lots of people who are not only in the gym, but just life. Hany you have a lot of wisdom to know when an athlete is doing something they shouldn't be doing. You are a great coach.
I had a huge take away from this ... I vape both thc and nicotine . And I'm wanting to stop. No bodybuilders ever talk about such things so for you to share this it's just absolutely life changing for so many inspiring young bodybuilders like myself . Hany and Derek thanks 1000x !
I've quit smoking with vaping 11yrs ago and cardio improved drastically. Also cut nicotine in half recently. Never did or plan on vaping thc but hear bad stuff on that end. Most deaths from vaping linked to Homebrew thc liquids.
Derek is just a great all around guy, Really appreciate you opening up about vaping, glad to see you overcame it, Blessing, Great podcast Hany definitely one of my favorites. Hany nailed it about social media, truth be told
Derek I have massive respect for you, I always liked your personality but this interview only inhaces your stature..these are the type of people I look towards that inspire me, thank you Champ!
Hey Hany, this is insane great content. It’s moving to see Derek opening up about his struggles, and how you worked together around those. He’s such a humble man, I really hope to see him achieve so much more success 🙌🙌
I see nobody in the next few years beating Derek!! And I hope nobody won't because next to Shaun Clarida, Derek is an amazing representive person for the 212 division! Thanks guys for this one!
I commend you Derek for your courage and I agree that sharing your story will help others. As a registered Psychotherapist and Mental Game Coach for Professional athletes, the mental game cannot be emphasized enough. It's great you have Hany, social support and congrats on your upcoming nuptials! And I just added trying Persian food one day to my bucket list. ;-) All the best to you guys and thanks for the great content again Hany!
@@hanyrambod_FST7 I'm currently in Las Vegas living the bodybuilding lifestyle in that I'm in my rental, or training at the Dragon's Lair or grocery shopping and that's it. I haven't been to any restaurants yet. Although you're not in this area, would you be able to recommend any good Persian restaurants in Vegas (close to the strip)?
3 years ago i watched an interview of Derek and honestly my first thought was a fake douche which first impressions are important but they don’t determine the legacy. This is the first time hearing Derek speak and it felt genuine and soulful. I would never judge a person by them using nicotine or thc we all know it’s not conducive to achieving a awesome inside and out but it takes humility to be yourself these days exspecially with compare committy always watching. Attaboy to you both excited to see more in the future. Congratulations 💪🏽🙏
Man when i competed, i couldnt stop smoking weed and vaping. The weed to keep me in a zen mode and not realize I’m doing the same shit day in day out. It would keep me focused and just keep moving forward, kinda like cruise control. The vaping just calms the anxiety from being wired on gear.
Been waiting for this one!!! Congratulations Derek! I was rooting for you big time. What an epic match-up between you and Shaun. And Hany.... Congrats to you. Derek looked amazing, and Hadi deserved the victory in the open class IMHO. He had the most proportionate, balanced, symmetrical, aesthetic, peeled physique. I had Hadi, Brandon, and Nick as the Top 3. Regardless, wonderful show. And thank you as always for the podcast, the training vids, and the great Evogen products!
i never liked derek because he always came across as extremely arrogant when i heard him on other interviews and podcasts, his entire demeanor is completely different now and i have tons of respect for him now. great interview.
Hey Hany i got a question for you .......when I'm done bulking and trying lean out what exactly is the process for it such as dieting, training and supplements?
Slowly start cutting out carbs, add fats such as coconut oil or avocado’s,... etc instead and no processed foods, sugar or diary and only isolate whey protein
I honestly started back up from the old college days during the pandemic and surprised my self by being able to go cold turkey with my parents coming into my place to visit. You are much stronger-willed than you think.
Congratulations Derek. We knew it was going to happen. And Hanny I don't know the wizardry you put on Derek but I don't know how you even make the weight class. Truth be told maybe a little part of me washoping or expecting I don't know I don't even know what good way to say it.. like if you didn't win we were all bank and that you would go to the open. And then you'd be like the next we priests. The giant-killer LOL we all seen was going on with Sean and that giant killer thing with Lee priest. Let's face he's going to test it out soon
Can you make me the next Derek Lunsford? Would love to be trained by you, currently an Evogen elite ambassador. Only Time will tell but I’m always visualizing you bein my coach. I see the videos and podcast with David Butler and his Natural journey inspires me even more. I’d love to know what it takes to reallly be apart off the team and become the best bodybuilder I can. Sending love and positive energy from New York.
Hlo respected sir I am regular gym guy I had tried everything like high carbs and different diets and supplements but no result , plz guide me, how to do lean gaining ?
I know..... Another one 😒 .....after last year's Olympia everybody remember the interviews shortly after with Derek? And him speaking on the changes of his life. Religion , mindset and relationships. Also falling into the hype. A lot of UA-cam fitness personalities wrote it off and said it was an act and things like this. I think I've even heard a few say he was bipolar. But yet here we are after he won the title and various interviews. Very change he spoke of, is holding steady. So he wasn't for BS... If you think about it , it's kind of depressing. That the larger portion of the industry being negative. Implying ( hoping/expecting) he didn't or couldn't change the way he portrayed. Goes to show you how messed up a lot of people are in this industry. To publicly came out and condemned somebody for wanting to improve their overall quality of life. Then not to believe them. You got to ask what kind of person is that for one. But what's the most depressing thing of it all. This messaging and negative content became normalcy for a reason. this industry and Las Vegas have something exponentially in common. A LOT OF PEOPLE IN THE INDUSTRY, MALE-FEMALE. LOOKING FOR THOSE CLICKS JUMPING ON THE TRENDS.WHETHER THAT'S THE DEPRESSION, ANXIETY, RELIGION, POLITICAL. then and social media when the environment shifts they shift so they're very inconsistent and well you know the rest. "A lot of FAKE TITS and real ASS HOLES
Wow, honesty what I thought about Lunsford before this was he was a guy with great genetics with a poor work ethic Obviously his addiction is what the problem was (which I can relate with, fuck weed) I just became a huge Derek Lunsford fan

Big props to Derek. I used to think he was arrogant. This shows he has matured a lot. Glad to see that he has been rewarded through his growth.
Wow! This just made me like and respect Derek and Hany that much more… Thanks for your faith and helping others Derek!

Congrats Derek and Team Evogen! Keep up the great work! Starting my FST-7 journey today to get 3D!
Derek’s mindset is winning and having faith and I respect him as a great 212 Olympian! 20 pro wins for Hany Rambod the 🐐 !! 🥇 🏆 🧬
They overcame by the Word of Their Testimony and the Blood of the Lamb. Thanks for sharing your testimony Derek.
