Wanted to add, I think its awesome how humble and goofy you guys are. It's like you guys are talking to your friends. Other youtubers seem like they're talking down to their audience. I love the chill vibes. Keep it going.
Loved this. I think everyone can appreciate the honesty and how genuine you guys are. I have to thank you for a lot. Especially during this pandemic. I'm at high-risk for complications from COVID-19 and have had to spend a lot of my time trapped inside of my house. I started working out (for the first time in years) to take my mind off of things and focus on something. During that time I found your channel and it completely changed the way that I workout and it also provides me with a lot of joy. I'm the same age as Hudson so it definitely feels relatable and easy to connect with. I can't say it enough, you guys. Thank you. Thank you. Thank you.
@@cameronmcpeak5183 - No it wasn't, they abused gear in golden era just like they do today. Its just that back then the gear compounds weren't complexed like they are today so shit does more nowadays than it did back then.. Also more damaging today.
I'm still surprised that AFTER YEARS, these guys still haven't appeared in movies or commercials yet. They are popular, they look good af, funny and I'm sure they can act.
I’m a heavy guy in my late 30’s and your videos have pushed me to get in the gym and work toward a healthier lifestyle! Thank you both for pushing me while making me laugh! Here’s to a Buff lifestyle!
I started going to the gym over a decade ago now, fell in love with it, but had no idea I was doing. In 2012 I found you guys here on UA-cam and started educating myself on the hows and whens and whys of fitness and have never left the gym or this lifestyle since. I'm still your biggest fan, still do your workout programs and the other year, and this is maybe the most humbling of all, your old man followed me on Instagram! It's been great to follow you guys along as the channel grew and I'm looking forward to seeing what will happen in the future. Great Q&A. Thank you guys - and Stay Buff!
Wtf! I thought Brandon was in like his late 20’s and Hudson in his early 30’s. This is mad inspirational as someone that’s been feeling pretty bummed about almost turning 30
My older brother who is the same age as Brandon introduced me to the channel in late 2019 and I've been watching it ever since. Your guys bond reminds of the bond that I have with my brother.
You can definitely do that in a year. I was accused of being on steroids back during year one, when I was only 140-150lbs. People just don't want to admit that they aren't working very hard, so they'd rather accuse other people of cheating.
I found your UA-cam channel around this time last year when I was 31 so it’s very relatable and great to hear I am on a similar path as Hudson. I’ve made significant life improvements over this past year and plan to continue. I absolutely would buy a cook book. There should be option’s other than the expensive cook book I’m aware of and I value your advice , information, and knowledge. Yats Ffub!
Glad you found us!! Yes we would love to make something along the lines of a cookbook for people who normally don't like to cook. Simple easy to find ingredients and recipes which aren't too difficult to make.
I honestly believe they are natural. I’ve been watching them for years and haven’t seen any massive spikes in size or anything so it makes sense to me. Plus they have been working out for years and you can see their progression it’s always slow and steady.
You guys have awesome genetics, just looking at your dad is clear you will be able to build muscle better than most people! People are to eager to make up a reason and to get some sort of moral high ground by blaming other people's physical success on steroids. Keep up the great work!
I hope he is not on steroids, but the level of muscularity of especially Brandon is extremely rare naturally. He is bigger than Steve Reeves and about the same size as Reg Park.
Guys, I gotta say you are the ones that look most natural in front of the camera, and really like your honesty and attitude in what you are doing. Wish you great success!
True: Its never too late to start. I didn't start pro wrestling training until I was 40! It was just a bucket list thing, but, still took it as seriously as I could. And I can say I did it.
I have been training for over 50 years and still love it... You guy's are great for the young and older lifters of the world... very good information. All truth and no BS... thanks for sharing
I love how this video was... REAL! I mean your edited videos are fun to watch and are exceptional on UA-cam, but showing that you are human, had a past, speak real is a thing that this channel had missed so much. Love from Hungary, keep up this kind of content!

Love you two. I don’t work out. I don’t eat properly. I’m so overweight. Yet you two draw me in with your awesome videos! Love seeing the girls and kids in videos
Pretty cool to hear that Hudson really got serious at around 30. I've been working out for around 12 years now, but i just began understanding what to do like 3 or 4 years ago

Buff dudes, I have been following you since the early days. I’ve always loved your videos, your style and how you have been able to combine legit fitness advice with humor. I’ve showed your videos to my family for years and now everytime anyone sends a picture working out, we do the “stay buff” gun pose. I purchased your “cutting plan” book recently and it’s great. Even if you guys weren’t natural, I would not care one bit, because you’ve helped me and my family tremendously throughout our fitness journeys and you promote a healthy lifestyle. I also find it great that you don’t get involved into all the toxic youtube drama that has been going on in the youtube fitness community lately. Thank you for all these years of great content, I wish you guys and your family the best and I would love for you guys to make another Q&A video in the near future. Greetings from Chile 🇨🇱 STAY BUFF💪
For the guy who's working 12 hour shifts, kettlebell training is ideal for their situation... You can get both cardio and strength training in a small package!
Kettlebells or just wake early. Wake up at 4 am, get the snack in, shit, be at gym 5-6am, shower and change at gym and go to work with a pump. Night shift? Just change the am to pm.
Guys, thanks. That was cool. I’ve been with you five or six years now. Got me started right and you continue to motivate and entertain me. That last question... it’s important to know what is a realistic goal when you’re lifting naturally. Hearing this is AWESOME.
Thank you so much for ALL your work Buff Dudes. I had never done a minute cardio or lifted a weight by this time last year. 37 years old when I tried my 1st workout and thanks in no small part to you guys, I'm now in my best shape EVER. still skinny fat compared to you guys but massively improved in my own life,,,, THANK YOU BOTH and your families too , much love Buff Dudes ❤
Cant say enough about how wonderfully genuine and sincerely down to earh these guys are! no matter how much their business has grown they are humble and real. So much respect for who you are what you do 💪
Great video, you guys crack me up! I respect the hell out of you never taking steroids and having a channel called “Buff Dudes”. Shows people you don’t need to do drugs to get in awesome shape.
Really nice Q&A, didn't even know i needed this. You didn't change the style of your videos too much over all these years and i like this very much. I'm watching you since 2012 and it really helps me stay motivated and entertained. Thank you for everything :)
Really great information guys. With the Cardio question I found that it actually did not become as much of a chore because i realised I love running, and I love lifting. The takeaway I get from what you pointed out is "Do what you're happy doing." because if you're UNHAPPY doing any exercise, particularly if you hate Cardio, you'll find every excuse to avoid it. Finding you guys when I first started my real workout journey was absolutely transformative for me. The way you presented information about working out and some of the recipes made a massive difference and I was able to make great strides in my lifts. Stay buff.
I enjoy your chemistry with each and your light hearted approach to fitness. You guys know your information and make diet with fitness accessible for everyone ! Thank you!
I just wanna say thank you to you guys. Watching your video over COVID was one of biggest motivations for me to get to the gym. Also appreciate all the recipes you put out. Best wishes to you guys again.
That was a great video guys! Out of all the fitness you tube channels I’ve subscribed too yours is only one I have never had to think about unsubscribing to. So many other channels get all caught up in debates about best workouts and who’s using. You guys stay clear from all that drama. Thank you. And also you guys, and especially Hudson, have been a big motivation for me to stay in shape. I’ve had 8 shoulder surgeries over the last 10 years. And so when I got back to doing workouts at home I had to basically start over with light dumbbells and I now focus more on warming up properly, form and good contractions, and stretching afterwards. I’ve gained about 60% of my strength back but I know I will never be as strong as I once was. But you guys have taught me the value of being happy with how you look at yourself in the mirror and not trying to look like everybody else. Thanks again guys! I might try out one of your workout books to give me some ideas. Where can I get those?
You guys parallel my brother and me in a lot of ways. He's a couple years younger, same hair color dynamic, he's an illustrator while I'm a writer, he's a little taller, etc. Though, you guys are both about 100 pounds heavier than we are. Haha Also, I'm feeling a bit called out. I was totally watching this video on the porcelain throne. You know your viewers too well. Haha
I love you guys, your content always keeps me motivated. When I first started working out in like 2015 you were my encyclopedia. I learned to cook from you, used many of your programs (I even downloaded a PDF you guys had and took it with me to the gym) and mostly you guys seem like so much fun to be around, I’ve always worked out alone and coming back to your channel makes me feel like I’m a buff dude too. Thanks guys 💪
I've following you guys since 2014. Through you I learned how to train how to track my macros. thank You so much for your food advices, training programs. i have gain 25 lbs of muscle thanks to You. 💪 A single bicep Salute to You
It's been awesome floating down the River Buff with you guys for so many years. Can't say I've stayed consistent but you guys have been there making all kinds of content to inspire me to keep it going. Cheers to the future of the channel!
Surprised nobody asked more personal questions for Brandon. Would be interesting to hear how/where he met his girlfriend, especially since she has become a big part of the channel.
@@Ben10man2 I like to live with the illusion of that ppl respect their privacy, and accept that they share their personal life on their own initiative. 😂 naive of me, I know
Haven't been back to this channel for years, can't believe the growth you guys have had! Congrats. Man i still remember 5-6 years ago watching your lifting form videos the night before I planned to go to the gym the first time to start 5x5, amazing to see how this channel has grown.
Oh boy Greg Doucette and MorePlatesMoreDates will definitely be responding to the steroid part. I’ve always said that you guys are natural and love your content. Keep it up bro’s!
hes probably going to say "I think they've taken something, and might be on a small TRT like cycle to maintain their size". That's thing with these natty or nots. It can be a compliment for awhile, but can also diminish someone's image or their business if they're actually natural. Honestly I don't think they're natural after watching MPMDs video on them, but they're still really entertaining and have lots of great information to share.
@Chidori457 watch MPMDs video on the buff dudes, it's mostly on Brandon's transformation video. For me, I think it's possible Brandon's used something. Their idols were guys like arnold and frank Zane, and Brandon at his peak, having a balance of great muscular development while being pretty shredded, arguably looks the same size, or bigger than Zane was, who obviously used steroids.
@@aldairmolina89 Frank Zane is 5'7, this dudes are 6'2. Also look both their dad AND mom, they're HUGE, brandon as teen had big fucking hands, arms and feet (dude literally looks like a fucking slanderman) , just didn't had the front size to equalize. Not saying that is impossible that they did roids, but, these guys really look like they have huge genetics and have been working out for almost 20 years now.
I am a long time fan from Europe, please use metric measurements when describing something, like add it in the video somewhere, pop up or somewhere else, it would be much appreciated.
Quick tips from an italian: when they talk about lbs just consider a little less then the half. For example: 140lbs = 63kg ( 1kg= 2,2lbs). And about inches and feet: 6 feet are 1,80m , 5 feet 7 inches is 170 cm
Have been watching you guys since I was 14 (now 21), and still think you’re the best fitness channel on UA-cam. Amazing sense of humor and super fun videos filled with information that newbies, intermediates, and advance gym goers will learn from. Thanks BUFF DUDES💪🏽
1:00 Wow cool I didn't know we were close in age. You all have been a huge inspiration to get into better shape and I'm loving working out more and challenging myself.
You guys seem legit and down to earth. I recently came across your videos and have enjoyed all the tips and have been watching all your old stuff trying to catch up lol.
People who are asking them to share blood tests to show they are natty....it's not that easy. If they want to prove they are natty, they have to do blood tests every few weeks and share those results with us for a long period, so we can see if they keep their muscle or lose it. People should know that.
We would just have to look for red flags in their most recent test, a full report from an endocrinologist can show different enzymes and hormones and whether they are within range. Anything that seems out of wack for a healthy and active looking person could be potential signs of exogenous hormone use OR a health condition that needs to be checked. Testosterone levels alone cannot prove anything but a full report can help to make inferences.
@Simz Zxy yea they have no incentive to do that nor do I care if they are natural or not. And yea we talks about PED use needs to be less stigmatized and thought of as “cheating”, I don’t support PED use but I don’t really care either. It’s only cheating when it is a competition where the rules say PEDs are banned. Besides laws, steroids aren’t cheating if there is no rule in life that says to not use it.
@Simz Zxy people that have not done anything with their lives accuse others of cheating in order to retain their fragile ego. Because they refuse to admit that of they had actually been doing the thing for decades instead of just sitting around doing nothing they would be in a similar place. And that applies to everything not just working out and eating right.
We still have it but honestly I think the best way of supporting us is grabbing one of our workout plans or apparel. That way you can get something in return!
Thanks for being transparent with all the questions! Your channel has been a great motivation throughout the years and will continue to so. Wish you all the best for the future!

I also find it great that you don’t get involved into all the toxic youtube drama that has been going on in the youtube fitness community lately.
Thank you for all these years of great content, I wish you guys and your family the best and I would love for you guys to make another Q&A video in the near future.
Greetings from Chile 🇨🇱
STAY BUFF💪
For the guy who's working 12 hour shifts, kettlebell training is ideal for their situation... You can get both cardio and strength training in a small package!
Kettlebells or just wake early. Wake up at 4 am, get the snack in, shit, be at gym 5-6am, shower and change at gym and go to work with a pump. Night shift? Just change the am to pm.
kettlebells are beta
Thank you @BuffDudes! I love your 12 week workout! I have noticed a big change and I am only in the fourth week!
Been hoping for a Q&A! Good stuff! Love this channel
Best workout related UA-cam channel around. Been to the gym in the past but you guys have helped me learn and pick it back up.
I have lost 72 lbs thanks in no small part to you dudes and your workout and nutrition videos! thank you!
Guys, thanks. That was cool. I’ve been with you five or six years now. Got me started right and you continue to motivate and entertain me. That last question... it’s important to know what is a realistic goal when you’re lifting naturally. Hearing this is AWESOME.
Thank you so much for ALL your work Buff Dudes.
I had never done a minute cardio or lifted a weight by this time last year.
37 years old when I tried my 1st workout and thanks in no small part to you guys, I'm now in my best shape EVER.
still skinny fat compared to you guys but massively improved in my own life,,,, THANK YOU BOTH and your families too , much love Buff Dudes ❤
That's awesome Thanks for letting us know Rich! Congrats for getting in shape and super happy you found us. Keep it up stay buff! 💪😎
Cant say enough about how wonderfully genuine and sincerely down to earh these guys are! no matter how much their business has grown they are humble and real.
So much respect for who you are what you do 💪
These dudes are chill as hell
Great video, you guys crack me up! I respect the hell out of you never taking steroids and having a channel called “Buff Dudes”. Shows people you don’t need to do drugs to get in awesome shape.
This was like a chat with friends, you can tell these guys really appreciate their viewers
This was a great video. These guys come across as so cool and genuine.
Really nice Q&A, didn't even know i needed this.
You didn't change the style of your videos too much over all these years and i like this very much.
I'm watching you since 2012 and it really helps me stay motivated and entertained.
Thank you for everything :)
Thank you Kevin! Glad you found us. Crazy to think 2012 is almost a decade ago. 😮
Really great information guys. With the Cardio question I found that it actually did not become as much of a chore because i realised I love running, and I love lifting. The takeaway I get from what you pointed out is "Do what you're happy doing." because if you're UNHAPPY doing any exercise, particularly if you hate Cardio, you'll find every excuse to avoid it.
Finding you guys when I first started my real workout journey was absolutely transformative for me. The way you presented information about working out and some of the recipes made a massive difference and I was able to make great strides in my lifts.
Stay buff.
"We were our dad's bitches" 🤣😭
I enjoy your chemistry with each and your light hearted approach to fitness. You guys know your information and make diet with fitness accessible for everyone ! Thank you!
Buff dudes: no steroid use
*MORE PLATES MORE DATES ENTERS THE CHAT*
😂
Steroids are illegal that's why they don't want to admit its usage.
they did look nervous
@@theveryproudmoroccan2834 They're not on steroids. They aren't even big, they're just tall and good bone structure.
@@theveryproudmoroccan2834
They are not on enhancements.
I just wanna say thank you to you guys. Watching your video over COVID was one of biggest motivations for me to get to the gym. Also appreciate all the recipes you put out. Best wishes to you guys again.
cookbook, do it. PLEASE!
I've used your videos to get food ideas since quarantine. I'm surprised there isn't a cookbook available already lol
That was a great video guys! Out of all the fitness you tube channels I’ve subscribed too yours is only one I have never had to think about unsubscribing to. So many other channels get all caught up in debates about best workouts and who’s using. You guys stay clear from all that drama. Thank you. And also you guys, and especially Hudson, have been a big motivation for me to stay in shape. I’ve had 8 shoulder surgeries over the last 10 years. And so when I got back to doing workouts at home I had to basically start over with light dumbbells and I now focus more on warming up properly, form and good contractions, and stretching afterwards. I’ve gained about 60% of my strength back but I know I will never be as strong as I once was. But you guys have taught me the value of being happy with how you look at yourself in the mirror and not trying to look like everybody else. Thanks again guys! I might try out one of your workout books to give me some ideas. Where can I get those?
You guys parallel my brother and me in a lot of ways. He's a couple years younger, same hair color dynamic, he's an illustrator while I'm a writer, he's a little taller, etc. Though, you guys are both about 100 pounds heavier than we are. Haha
Also, I'm feeling a bit called out. I was totally watching this video on the porcelain throne. You know your viewers too well. Haha
I think I subscribed when you were around 235k. . Just now seeing your over 2 million. . Awesome job guys!
Love you guys! Thanks for the positive encouragement coupled with buff brotherly goofiness ❤️
Thank you Rebecca! 💪😎
I love you guys, your content always keeps me motivated. When I first started working out in like 2015 you were my encyclopedia. I learned to cook from you, used many of your programs (I even downloaded a PDF you guys had and took it with me to the gym) and mostly you guys seem like so much fun to be around, I’ve always worked out alone and coming back to your channel makes me feel like I’m a buff dude too. Thanks guys 💪
I've following you guys since 2014. Through you I learned how to train how to track my macros. thank You so much for your food advices, training programs. i have gain 25 lbs of muscle thanks to You. 💪 A single bicep Salute to You
That's amazing Luis. Congrats and glad you found us!
The only fitness channel I've stayed subbed to since I joined. Great content and one thing i love is how genuine and personable you two are.
I've bought workout books from you guys. I would love a cookbook to compliment it. Preferably something easy to make.
It's been awesome floating down the River Buff with you guys for so many years. Can't say I've stayed consistent but you guys have been there making all kinds of content to inspire me to keep it going. Cheers to the future of the channel!
Surprised nobody asked more personal questions for Brandon. Would be interesting to hear how/where he met his girlfriend, especially since she has become a big part of the channel.
People might ask and they don't want to overshare since they aren't married yet and you never know. Just an idea
@@Ben10man2 I like to live with the illusion of that ppl respect their privacy, and accept that they share their personal life on their own initiative. 😂 naive of me, I know
BLUFF DUDS (LYING ROIDERS)
Stay natural buddy!
Haven't been back to this channel for years, can't believe the growth you guys have had! Congrats.
Man i still remember 5-6 years ago watching your lifting form videos the night before I planned to go to the gym the first time to start 5x5, amazing to see how this channel has grown.
I know they have over 2 Million subs but I find this channel so under appreciated ...
Love the level of effort these guys put into their videos. Building things. Great channel.
Oh boy Greg Doucette and MorePlatesMoreDates will definitely be responding to the steroid part. I’ve always said that you guys are natural and love your content. Keep it up bro’s!
hes probably going to say "I think they've taken something, and might be on a small TRT like cycle to maintain their size". That's thing with these natty or nots. It can be a compliment for awhile, but can also diminish someone's image or their business if they're actually natural. Honestly I don't think they're natural after watching MPMDs video on them, but they're still really entertaining and have lots of great information to share.
that doucette guy seems to think that anyone who walks is on steroid.
@Chidori457 watch MPMDs video on the buff dudes, it's mostly on Brandon's transformation video. For me, I think it's possible Brandon's used something. Their idols were guys like arnold and frank Zane, and Brandon at his peak, having a balance of great muscular development while being pretty shredded, arguably looks the same size, or bigger than Zane was, who obviously used steroids.
@@aldairmolina89 Frank Zane is 5'7, this dudes are 6'2. Also look both their dad AND mom, they're HUGE, brandon as teen had big fucking hands, arms and feet (dude literally looks like a fucking slanderman) , just didn't had the front size to equalize. Not saying that is impossible that they did roids, but, these guys really look like they have huge genetics and have been working out for almost 20 years now.
@@jamesfreitas5878 someone's dad is 0 proof of anything
Loved this! Thanks for answering so many great questions. I’d love for you to do this again.
I am a long time fan from Europe, please use metric measurements when describing something, like add it in the video somewhere, pop up or somewhere else, it would be much appreciated.
Learn their system lol
Just move to America it’s easier
@@lukebruck3246 when I start making videos, sure.
Quick tips from an italian: when they talk about lbs just consider a little less then the half. For example: 140lbs = 63kg ( 1kg= 2,2lbs). And about inches and feet: 6 feet are 1,80m , 5 feet 7 inches is 170 cm
I'm from europe too, if they added that in it would be awesome but just use google^^ their is a measurement translator for just about anything
13:45 ah one of those "brothers" moments.
remember quite a bit of that when I was watching Hodge Twins years ago too.
I would be interested in a cook book or even more recipes on youtube. Love the content!
Have been watching you guys since I was 14 (now 21), and still think you’re the best fitness channel on UA-cam. Amazing sense of humor and super fun videos filled with information that newbies, intermediates, and advance gym goers will learn from. Thanks BUFF DUDES💪🏽
I would 100% buy a cook book from you!
Thanks for letting us know! We will definitely work hard on it throughout the rest of the year
1:00 Wow cool I didn't know we were close in age. You all have been a huge inspiration to get into better shape and I'm loving working out more and challenging myself.
26:35 hahahah wait... how'd u know? is my camera on????
Also when will it become easier to order the hard copy workout plan for us in Europe?
You guys seem legit and down to earth. I recently came across your videos and have enjoyed all the tips and have been watching all your old stuff trying to catch up lol.
Nope not on the toilet, sitting at my makeshift home desk laughing because I’m so enjoying this Q&A.😁
Great video. Really enjoyed it. How about another with Buff Duke and Buff Mom?
13:45 wholesome brothers in sync
Whoa!!! That's really wholesome!
I'm surprised this is the first Q&A y'all have done. Been a fan of the channel for over 6 years and I'm glad to see you grow. Stay buff!
Would be great if you can do a 30 day resistance band only workout and compare the results to free weights. That would be amazing!
Your guys are so relatable, funny, and informative. I have been watching your video for years. Keep it up, Buff Dudes!
People who are asking them to share blood tests to show they are natty....it's not that easy. If they want to prove they are natty, they have to do blood tests every few weeks and share those results with us for a long period, so we can see if they keep their muscle or lose it. People should know that.
We would just have to look for red flags in their most recent test, a full report from an endocrinologist can show different enzymes and hormones and whether they are within range. Anything that seems out of wack for a healthy and active looking person could be potential signs of exogenous hormone use OR a health condition that needs to be checked. Testosterone levels alone cannot prove anything but a full report can help to make inferences.
@Simz Zxy yea they have no incentive to do that nor do I care if they are natural or not. And yea we talks about PED use needs to be less stigmatized and thought of as “cheating”, I don’t support PED use but I don’t really care either. It’s only cheating when it is a competition where the rules say PEDs are banned. Besides laws, steroids aren’t cheating if there is no rule in life that says to not use it.
@Simz Zxy people that have not done anything with their lives accuse others of cheating in order to retain their fragile ego. Because they refuse to admit that of they had actually been doing the thing for decades instead of just sitting around doing nothing they would be in a similar place. And that applies to everything not just working out and eating right.
Adorable! Your mom and dad are blessed!
Why did you guys stop the patreon? I remember you have a patreon and I wanted to support you through that and it was missing.
We still have it but honestly I think the best way of supporting us is grabbing one of our workout plans or apparel. That way you can get something in return!
I love you two. Thanks for doing things the right way and setting such a good example.
Massive props for hitting the steroid question head-on. 💪
Thanks for being transparent with all the questions! Your channel has been a great motivation throughout the years and will continue to so. Wish you all the best for the future!
Bro, I was also child labor learning drywall, awesome 😎
As was I . Now I'm old labor doing drywall
Lol, mine was concrete work.
These guys are such cool, down to earth dudes. Really wish them all the best
"The best diet is the one you don't even know you're on."
I think that’s one of the many things I like about you guys, your style has been consistent over the years. Keep rockin’ 🤟🏻
The Predator video sounds amazing even if it all went to shit. Do Commando next! Should be a bit easier lol
Keep it up guys, your videos are great.
One of my favorite things about your videos is is how y'all aren't afraid to say, I'm a little out of shape right now and here's how I'm going to correct it, from time to time.
