So basically you work your ass off and made good money decision and became successful. Congrats bro that's f****** awesome dude
thumb this if you'd pay $10 to squeeze his biceps
Yes king
@attracted to the metal like magneto not gay to admire the fruits of dedication and work. also not gay to be joking around
*bro if u was getting money you wouldnt be using that wal mart marker bro*
@@codybersicc7939 lmao if u were making money you wouldn't be watching this video
The most honest,realistic bodybuilder on the net
For sure I love his content he seems like a great guy too
100% legend
he didnt tell us how much he makes from his supplement company per year
@@grahamsmith3186 his supplement company is fairly new - he sells 4-5 different supps and the first supp only came out about 9 months ago. He definitely had his projections but I doubt he knows how much his company is worth at this exact moment.
He's a great Muslim
Other bodybuilders made similar videos, but they weren’t structured and as easy to understand as this video. Thanks
Hes one of the best because he knows there's anuff to go around and he is a solid man
Remember rich piana he was give out this infor to
Earning my bachelor's PHD from Hosstile University class 2020 yall
Lol
I have 2 bachelor's degrees...this one shits on both of them. Fouad is a life role model. Work hard, love what you are doing and you'll build a good living. MAD RESPECT!
This is NOT limited to bodybuilding! I'm an engineering student and diversifying your income and utilizing your skills given to you by your profession is essential to your progression. Fouad you're like the dad I never had lmao. Golden content. Respect.
bro how are you diversifying your income?
@@thegreatest1176 Stocks and bonds are usually a decent way.
It’s probably not nearly the same degree as bodybuilding, but I’d agree that in any field investing is how you meaningfully grow your income. That could be an investment in education so you can move up the ladder, it could mean starting your own side business, it could mean stocks and real estate. If you just do your job and take what your employer will give you, you’ll mostly be limited to a 3% annual cost of living adjustment.
Funny that prize money never even made it into the equation. This is One of your best videos Fouad.
It’s not significant enough for me since I only won a couple small shows.
You may have been a “second tier bodybuilder” but your def a first class business man. I know I took something from this video. I appreciate it big man💪🏻
Moral of the story. It doesn't matter what you do, if you are good at it, and you live in America, then you can make some money. The most important thing is reputation. People will pay the cost if they are confident that the service will be provided by a valid and reliable expert.
GREAT VIDEO FOUAD!
Regan commenting on Hoss' video, the crossover I didn't know I wanted.
Regans probably making close to 7 figures will how many sources of income he’s got
@@codybersicc7939 ...what
@@codybersicc7939 what does it matter. He smart where he spends his money on.

This applies to life in general, not just bodybuilding.
By fouad liking it comments it makes us want to comment more, hes smashing the algorithm!!
Also appreciate the transparency on the subject :)
This popped up in my recommended and I thought to myself oh I know this guy. Greg spoke about him. So I watched it, and wow. This was the best video I’ve ever watched. What an experience. Thank you
Foad thanks for the videos , realist in the industry, showing the black and white
Nice
I just want to check in with all my fans and see how everyone's doing.
Half hour of honest talk in a single cut. Great video Fouad, and most of all, congrats on a well deserved success 👍🏼💪🏼
Fouad, you’ve just pulled the trigger that i needed to start my coaching business. One day, i will retourn the favor. Thank you so much.
This Dude Single handedly saved Bodybuilding in one video... Thank you for the wisdom
"People can relate because i wasnt the best"
No bro people relate because you empower people, str8 out, honest and calm
Plus you have a sense of humour
Keep doin what ur doing haboob.
🙏🏽
Fouad, as always, the realest in the game
Fouad, the world's most relatable bodybuilder telling it like it is. Love that he broke the taboo about talking about income and just broke it down straight up. Totally motivational!
I'm no bodybuilder but this advise is gold in every aspect of a man's life. In whatever you do. If you are Consistent , persistent and patient. You'll make it. Thanks buddy
Yeah, no. Things are just not that simple.
I mean this is literally the most detailed at the same time kicking our lazy ass to go out there and hustle our ass off!!
Great video fouad! Really appreciate the depth of this video :)
I've never seen a more complete and so well structured presentation on how can a national level competitor and beyond that, earn a living and even more.
On a side note, you should consider making seminars on that aspect or even life coaching up and coming bbers on how to to do it
I’m happy to see you and other professional, hardworking guys like Iain and various guests you’ve had on your show, are likely making a pretty good living doing what you love. You guys deserve it!!!! Keep it up
I hate when youtubers feel obligated to say how they make money to appease the peasants that are complaining and whining. You did all the work, you put in the hours and YOU grinded. Keep it up man i wish you and your family the best of health in this time.
Fouad:"It takes more than being pretty."
Sommer Ray: ....Hold my leggings
Lol
Its sad to think about it but its not their fault for getting all the attention from dudes on social media
Work & consistency, principles that apply to any sucessful aspect of life. Watching Fouad giving life lessons, as a simple man, i upvote
Love the amount of respect you give to Meadows. Great show
Such a great ambassador for our sport! Intelligent, classy, articulate, a true gentleman indeed!!!
A lot of great lessons in this video to carry over to whatever industry you're in. Thanks for the inspiration Fouad!
I LOVE the "go get the money". That's so true for almost everything where "there's no money"
This was an amazing video Fouad, probably one of the best regarding this topic and building a bodybuilding career in general. Everything is 100% spot on, it all comes down to pure hard work, discipline, consistency, and putting out value that you can give back and make yourself stand out. The Phil Heaths are the 1 in a billion and success comes from work not just from riding on pure talent.
This is valuable regardless of whether or not you’ve even touched a weight in your life...this man is teaching us important life skills
Making me feel inspired at the start of my day with a white board video let’s go
You shouldn't have to justify yourself. Once you begin, you will always have to. You a Great Guy, you bring enough to this World and people should be content with it !
Fou when you get in to hustling advice your talks (at least for me) get so so interesting ahaha. thats a strong point that is really noticeble on you, of how hard you had to work and how much you learnt along the way... at least for me, in my early 20s, i admire it and enjoy listening to it. I've saved two of your videos on my phone to remind me of the things you've mentioned hahaha. Cheers, Regards from Chile
This guy is the bomb. Watch all his videos. From diet, eating, to bodybuilding, he is great. Love listening to him and seeing him work out. What a beast. Wish him all the best. He deserves everything he gets.
Super helpful video man, cheers!
Nice
He forgot one other source of income, UA-cam &AD RECENUE
Go play cs noob
@@DazzzTube stfu
OKAY FOUAD, YOU JUST HELPED ME DISCOVER A NEW FAVORITE BODYBUILDER. YOUR HONESTY (BESIDES YOUR MUSCLE MASS & QUALITY) IS WHAT MADE ME LIKE YOU RIGHT OFF THE BAT. Too many other bodybuilders lie about how they make money and how the fact that they take "gear". But you're the type of coach that I'd love to have since you're apparently a straight shooter. Thank you so much for your awesome videos and support. I've learned A LOT from you in only a couple of your videos that I've seen so far. I've definitely subscribed & will be following you from this day forward. Even my girlfriend was learning A LOT about dieting just by watching a couple of your videos with me. We watched how you were grocery shopping on a budget and picking up the best foods for BB. Thanks again for your awesome content, Fouad!
"The dollars are there, you gotta just go and get it." this rly stuck with me. Thanks for the word of advice!
I've said this before, but I'm not a bodybuilder and still love this channel. Why? Because Fouad's advice is universal and applies to anybody trying to succeed at any given profession. Fouad, you should take this speech on the road and do motivational speaking to sales teams in the corporate world.
People won’t even realize that you just dropped a masterclass on they ass for free
Free and then he'll make more money on UA-cam 👌🏻💯
I'm just a regular guy who works out 6 days a week, eats clean and all, I don't think I could one day be a bodybuilder BUT, this video kind of motivates me to do better than I'm doing in everything I've got.
Finally, a pro bodybuilder made this video💪
This dude is honest and transparent with a clear intent to provide educational videos about his sport. No gimmicks, down to earth well structured videos that everyone can understand. RESPECT BRO!
Just waiting for that 10lb potato eating video to drop💪
You don’t find this kind of honesty often. Sharing truly is caring.
Fouad, what are your thoughts on a software/app to allow coaches to expand their business?
What slows coaches down? The time it takes to provide quality coaching to each client. Many coaches still use WhatsApp for communication and how do they track client progress in one place?
What if there was a software/app where coaches can have each athlete create an "Athlete Profile" which puts their pictures each week on a timeline so they can easily flip through past pictures and the athlete's weight is below each picture. Also within the Athlete's Profile are their meal plans week to week and the coach can easily adjust weights and food type. How does this allow coaches to expand their business? It saves time on prepping for each client's update. Everything the coach needs (i.e. previous weeks workouts, meals, weight, pictures, etc.) is in one place and the communication is in one place.
I see you have an idea... Better hop on it before someone else does.
Marcello Wheeler I think Carbon Diet Coach app does something similar to this
Sounds like the apps like Ptdistinction, train heroic, etc
Your video was extremely illuminating! I just stumbled onto your videos! They seem sincere and to the point. I’m a 77 yr old and have worked out. Never had the confidence to compete but knew it was an on-going process to build. Thanks a million. You’re awesome!
Hoss if you keep saying PH name he will invoice you!!! LOL!
Not sure how much I can emphasise how inspiring this is. I truly believe I have a gift of coaching people in the gym with training and watching this has spurred me on to go out and "hustle" as you say. Thank you for being so transparent. So encouraging brother. You can count me as another loyal follower.
damn, can't just bully sponsors for their lunch money :(
Haven't been this engaged in bodybuilding content since Rich Piana. Love how honest this bloke is. Absolute legend Fouad.
I'm not sure how to feel about the morale of the video in the end: "the money is there go get it".
strive to be excellent at what you do, ok i get it, and i agree,
but the good money is there for the top 20 or so guys only apparently.
I think way more that this number are putting there heart and soul into it, but there are not enough lucrative seats.
Even if more athletes were as good, or better than you are, i don't think there would enough seats.
It is something that has been bothering me lately, what kind of industry or society is it, that promotes super profits for a select few and crumbs, if anything for the rest ?
@buffbeezer That is quite interesting. I admit that my view was a bit narrow (of course, i am not an athlete and i don't know much the industry).
That being said, i am still not 100% confortable with the discourse, but hey, it is was it is, and it's not like my opinion matters that much.
Anyways thanks for replying.
Honesty and transparency, that's one of the big reasons I'm a fan. You're a great rep of the sport Hoss! Keep on hustling brother
🙏🏽
So according to your calculations, you were making 175k at the height of your career, and again according to you, a second-tire bodybuilder is like the 7th-15th place of Mr Olympia. Just compare that to how much the 7th-15th rank tennis or football player makes in a year (I'll save you the calculation, it's millions), and how much less they have to spend on food, supplement, drugs, etc., and how much less they are destroying their bodies compared to a bodybuilder and then you will see why people say there is no money in bodybuilding.
Agreed
Yeah but not everyone can become 7-15th rank in tennis or football compared to bodybuilding, even still it's all hard, and there's definitely money in everything, you just need to put the effort in
Pav2k so are you suggesting that anyone can make top 15 in mr Olympia?
@@pav2k351 that's why I'm comparing one to one with similar rankings, not everyone could be in the top 15 Mr. Olympia either, it takes extraordinary genetics, huge sacrifice, extreme dieting, etc. and if anything it's much more 'damaging' and definitely costly to be a bodybuilder compared to be a footballer or something (drugs, diet, coaching, and many other expenses). I mean compare C Ronaldo to Ronnie Coleman for example. Both of them are extraordinary human beings with insane genetics and talent who worked hard to realize their full potential and become legends. But how much more money you got to spend to become Ronnie Coleman compared to becoming C Ronaldo, and who's more destroying their body and sacrificing their health? And on top of that C Ronaldo is making 31 million a year just on his salary. Compare this to the 400k prize of Mr. Olympia's first place and it looks like peanuts. I don't even mention the rest of his sponsorship contracts. A top bodybuilder makes 200k-400k on sponsorship contracts while Ronaldo just has one life-long contract, among many others, with Nike that's worth reportedly 1 billion.
Pro, semi-pro and even amateur tennis or golf players still have to be dedicated to their diet and workout routine and spend tons of money on their coaching and conditioning as well as practice. They also tear up their bodies. Not as much as a BB if they are on juice though, but they do go through a lot.
There is more money in those sports because they have been around for decades upon decades longer and they are more "pristine" than BB. Not to mention that the purse in BB is not anywhere near those in tennis or golf.
29 minutes and not a single jump cut!!!! Mad props for that. Only someone who is speaking pure,humble truth can do this . Humility and sincerity.... real good stuff...... headed over to hosstile right now to support you.
Thank you!
The pattern I see is work+consistency=results. There really is no easy way 99.9 percent of the time. You deserve what you have bro, you worked hard and are super consistent so you get the results you want. Inspiration for real
Getting started in the business is very hard. I started online and hands on strength training in 2016. It can be very draining especially like you said, when you truly care about the progress of your clients. Outstanding work explaining how to build your brand. Excellent video bro.
Fouad is very modest! He is a top bodybuilder ( ots not always about placings ) indeed and lets respect how grounded and genuine he is ! Love it !
Had to rewatch this , and I understand it now
Absolutely one (if not) THE best, most direct, honest, no-bullshit coverages of this BUSINESS/SPORTS that I’ve ever seen. Best of all, it’s done INTELLIGENTLY! I was watching this as both a lifter AND as someone with an MBA. This can be a case study in and of itself into this business. Budgets, cost analysts, profit margins, expenditures, business models, etc. Well done!
🙏🏽
I needed to be hearing this at 22 and not 42. This would've cleared up every streotype and given me a better understanding what to do if you decide you can believe in yourself.
You're one of the most honest and transparent pro bodybuilder out there Fouad. Keep putting out bangers!
This applies to many other areas in life, not just bodybuilding. Second part of the video is pure gold.
Fouad, I am in the world of sales management and business, and brother you are one of the most relatable, honest Pros on the scene. Truly enjoy your rise and consistent knowledge of many topics and this one was a phenomenal one I will share with my son who is a senior in college. Thanks and going on your site to check out your products!!
🙏🏽
Probably the best bodybuilding money video on UA-cam to date. Hands down.
You're changing lives, brother. I don't consider myself a bodybuilder whatsoever but I do lift weights seriously and love everything about the lifestyle/disciple associated with it all. I listen to everything you do. Keep it up man!
As a business owner, I love hearing this end of it. Thank you for sharing. Good information.
Fouad thanks for all the help you offer man. I mean ur not getting anything from this video, yet ur doing it to share ur knowledge with us. We do appreciate it brother
this video summarized 10 years of reading magazines back in the day when i was a teenager. Thank you so much for this content.
He really cares about what he does. I love his mind set
I'm just watching this video now, probably a bit late to it. But I think you are right on point with your message about work ethic. I'm at the point of getting triggered when people make it look like success is for "some people" only. There are paths to success, and whether you get there or not depends largely on your attitude and approach to life. Everything you do must reflect your hunger to succeed, and you're gonna need hard work, consistency and self-evaluation. Not excuses and laziness. Of course, ethics/moral matters as well.
Top video, very open and informative. No hype, no nonsense. Just straight talk.
It's simple... I see Fouad in front of a whiteboard and I immediately click the video. Thanks for sharing all your knowledge with us!
Fouad I don't think you would have a problem getting clients to stick with you you know what your talking about and its always 💯 real. Thanks again 💪🇨🇦 🇺🇸
I know they would have confidence in me but I have to have time to take care of them properly.
No truer words spoken!this fella knows business.
Fouad's brain is a big as his body. respect.
Smart guy in addition to all the training. Nice to hear him saying people can be lazy and want the money to come to them rather than going out to get it.
Im not in body building but just watching the video inspires me to want to work even harder in my real estate industry. Love the video!
Started to understand how a bodybuilder makes money....ended up watching a top notch lecture on brand building and money management!
Fouad:''They are just too fking lazy to get the money' PREACHING FACTS BRO! This is so true not just in bodybuilding but in general. People are just too lazy that they want everything handed in their hands. Great video Fouad and thanks for always keeping it real.
I found this channel a week ago and have been obsessed. I'm not even into bodybuilding, but overall there's so much wisdom that can be applied to everybody!!! Keep it up Fouad
That was probably the best video you have ever done. I have an MBA but really never understood the business side of bodybuilding until now.
I’ve been watching you for years now. Man you’re the realist!!!
This was for real one of the best videos on planning a career. This is so real. Thank you so much and God bless you Fouad. Every business course in college should watch this. This should be shown in high school. Work and consistency. For real.
Love from India! Keep up the Good Work. I am currently down with Flu and Typhoid and watching your videos is a part of my recovery. Cant wait to start again!
You've literally carried bodybuilding on your shoulders in the last 6 months.
I’m not a bodybuilder I actually train for something else.. but I take a lot of inspiration from fouad
Thanks for the video! This really helps a lot!
It amazes me when I see one of your videos and I think at first he's just going to talk about his shopping, and I go big whoop. Then 25 minutes later I'm like wow he was entertaining and all he did was shop. It's also nice to see you talking about work and consistency. Today's generation wants everything to be handed to them. People must understand that you have to work and be consistent it any craft you have to be successful.
Thank you so much Fouad !!! as a Personal Trainer and i have been for the past 2 years... you really cleared the air because like you said it takes consistency and work but you really made the whole picture clear as daylight. im more convinced now i need to make my website and youtube happen.
This not bodybuilding video, no this how you build you build your brand . Amazing video
You can replace the word bodybuilding with ANY business/industry, this is gold
I swear this guy give the best fucking presentations on topics man, please never stop this 🙏
Very down to earth man..humble too. I can relate to him
I love the no bullshit. No clickbait. You’re awesome Fouad!
for all the years...The one video that answered my question.
Thx a lot for the video and your honesty
Fouad and Meadows deserve all of their success
Fully respect you, because you work for every cent you make, in the UK at a world famous football club, he is making 350 thousand a week, and he is not even playing football, I wish bodybuilders were paid this money, how life is not fair!! Keep grinding Sir totally respect, very informative on this subject.
Mannnn! It’s 12am... talk about motivation?! Best channel on UA-cam bro ✊🏾
