      Same here…..I’m in my mid-50s now and I’m learning more and more that it’s not about how many plates are loaded on the machine. Instead, it’s about how hard the muscle is working - load/tension the muscle….I also found it interesting that Fouad no longer uses an Olympic barbell bench press. Something for me to think about as well. Even when giving a tour of his gym, he spreads the knowledge….impressive

    I think this gym just embodies your message in such a powerful way. "Let no sacrifice or adversity stand in the way". You've wanted this gym for so long, after so much hard work here it is. It's an amazing achievement Fouad. I know Hosstile is an American based company but its been incredible to see Canada work it's way up the tower of Professional bodybuilding on and off stage. Much respect as well as appreciation to you and the team! Looking forward to seeing you guys continue to grow. 👊💪

    Bad Ass Hoss. You have been talking about building this for a long time. It is awesome to see your passion on display and the efforts of you and your team coming together. And while it is a sacred place of solitude, as an introvert myself, you will enjoy sharing your temple with those that you care about. Mad props. Very happy for you. Maybe add a big ass mural of the Infinity Gauntlet to remind you of John. To bust your ass even when you don't feel like it.

    If you’re looking for suggestions my Husband and I used a hammer strength row machine (upright, chest-supported) several years ago that was amazing and haven’t found anything like it since. Also Pure Muscle & Fitness has an awesome glute machine that uses a seatbelt, it isolated my glutes really well. If you’re looking for suggestions.

    What an accomplishment Brother sick ass gym a lot of people on the outside say man must be nice but no one ever recognizes the sacrifice and hard work it took to obtain the place in life you are but all of your podcasts have really opened up an outlet to speak on trail and errors freely and that makes such an impact of lives all over the world your doing good shit bro it’s been an awesome opportunity to live in an era where someone like you and the rest of the gang are willing to share knowledge and life lessons learned in the industry with us this shit matters bro I know it’s busy season right now so I’m grateful for all the podcasts your able to get out right now it’s been awesome to cheer these guys on at shows feeling like you know the strive and how bad they’ve worked for it and earned it and knowing them on more of a somewhat non censored personal level makes their small victories and large victories apart of an overall dynamic of the industry very relatable makes me feel like I’m cheering on one of my boys me wanting them to kick ass more than they want it keep up the good work HOSS your making a difference brother

    Oh this makes me miss a real gym! I haven't used some of those machines in a LONG time - like that incline chest press. And a sled would be fantastic - can do alot with that. Gym is looking awesome. Having your own space to do your thing can't be beat. Would you have use for a GHD machine? Don't get rid of a thing - that would be like choosing which of your cars to boot out of the garage:) Big congrats on achieving this dream!

It's just a whole other ball game in terms of mental clarity and not having to many distractions with your typical big box gyms. If anything I've gotten stronger in my lifts training at home 😂. My training split was your typical Push, Pull & Leg. 3 days on, rest and repeat.
