@FouadAbiad which episode is it with these four guys when the question is, “if you could be one race what would it be?” And Paul says “I’d be black” and he says it really fast. That is the funniest shit ever.
Fouad I hope you see this, I want to thank you for everything that you have done for the sport of Bodybuilding. I have seen couple of your motivational videos on Makaveli and Nicandro motivations. Your voice is just hella motivating brother. I hope they make more videos of you with your voice. there was a video of you that you mentioned “once you love doing what you do like bodybuilding, NOTHING can stop you” this saying from you in that video hits me every time 👑
The tips around the 1:48:00 mark from Mike about the chin being back is such a fucking great nugget of info, something I have never heard before, but literally sitting in my chair at work, i pulled my chin back and pulled my lats back as if i was doing a rowing movement, and immediately felt a deeper contraction in my lats without even any weight. What a fantastic explanation, much appreciated.
Used to watch and really enjoy this podcast when I was going through stressful times. Then stress from life stopped so stopped watching this and lost interest. Now stress started again and I love this podcast again. It literally gives the social time that you miss when you're super busy! Please keep it regular Fouad!
Fouad seems like such a genuine good guy at his heart. Shouting out chris like that was very kind. Regardless of all the drama and beef in the internet we see through the BS Fouad. Been watching since luke - actually since u did the 20k challenge on muscular development haha. Cheers!
2:34 Mike hates airplanes, but also takes fat shits on them 14:39 Iains gay (again) 24:21 Fouad: “Iains not gay, he’s bisexual” everyone agrees, next topic 37:19 Iain says he’s 9 out from show, Paul asks if he means 9 weeks or 9 inches, Iain confirms the latter 56:34 Iain finally comes out of the closet, *Mel/CBUM clap from living room 1:06:17 Mike offends Iain’s identity, they make up, *Mike claps again for Iain coming out 1:37:53 Foo Add Ab Iad championships 1:54:28 Paul asks Iain if he’s really gay, (2x) 2:01:49 Conclusion/Outro
Would like Mikes opinion on this- A cue that I liked for back is “ your spine is like a stationary door hinge and each side of your back is a separate door and you are just opening and closing those doors around that hinge”. Applies more to rowing motions and is more of an analogy than a cue, but it always made sense to me
The first thing I do before I even watch the podcast is like the video because I know it will always be amazing!!! If ive watched 200 episodes, Ive loved 200 episode!❤
Ill be honest, ive learned alot from him coming on the show. Mostly about myself. I never paid attention because i based my perception on his appearance. And im not ever like that but i apparently am still capable of being a judgmental D tho. Hes the best. Smart smart vision of training. Very logical thinking to his solutions.
When you elevate the scapula at the top of a pulldown the teres major doesn’t lengthen more. The teres major is attached to the inferior angle of the scapula up to the humerus so the teres major can only be lengthened and shortened based on the movement of the humerus. The lat attaches to vertebrae and the pelvis so when you elevate the scapula the lat actually lengthens because its origin and insertion point actually get further away from each other. When you elevate the scapula during a pulldown the teres major origin and insertion points don’t get further away from each other.
Thank you Mike! You perfectly explained how I need to fix my lagging back. I'm 6ft 2 former basketball player long arms wide shoulders wide lats, but I'm missing the middle back thickness and I feel your tip here is going to be a gamechanger!
Fouad's sentiment is totally normal. You normally want to associate and be associated with people of similar level or similar background or insterest. My best friends are the ones comfortable giving me shit and taking shit from me.
Headed to Pittsburgh for NPC MASTERS NATIONAL one year, I had a brand new small jar of almond butter to eat on the plane. The TSA lady said I couldn’t carry it. I told her it’s brand new and still sealed. She said it doesn’t matter, bomb makers can make anything look legit. I guess she had a point and rules are rules, and I follow the rules. However, she took the almond butter and put it in the trash can right there at her station. I said wait a min. That could be explosive but you’re disposing of it right beside you? Ok, that makes sense! That’s our govt for you. Wished her a good day and moved on.
I always overpack. I take everything. I’ve had airport workers ask how long I was going for because my bag was overweight… it was only for a long weekend. 😂
I agree with Fouad 100%. I don't have a problem with carry-on luggage. The problem is when people stow both their carry-on AND their personal item (like a backpack or giant purse) in the overhead bin. That's what eats up all the space and necessitates gate-checked bags. It's also the one thing the airlines/flight attendants don't enforce at all. 🤷♂️
The Wire is hands down the best tv series ever created. This is coming from someone who is obsessed, I've probably forgotten more shows then most have ever seen. I've watched the wire in full over 12x sopranos is runner up with 6x
5:25 - 5:26 *stop smoking weed you junkie* I was literally taking a bong rip when you said that. Seeing as I have the podcast on bluetooth speakers it was loud and scared the fk outta me. I nearly choked and almost dropped my bong LMFAO. Well done Fouad. You nearly killed me HAHAHAHA
I live across from Brennan high school, a friend of mine invited me to watch a football game where his son was playing on the visiting team (Herman/ "the green machine"). Herman ended up beating Brennan so bad that the Herman team was playing their third QB. The Brennan football coach yelled and insulted his team so bad my wife (who could hear him in the house) was going to call the school to help the kids. Haha So, yes football coaches haven't really changed.
Big Mike's a God send so much improvement using his philosophys I also love how breaks it down it makes complete sense and when you apply his techniques I bet money you never felt that muscle that blown in your fukin life! No bs thank you 🙏🏼 for all the free knowledge so much appreciated I'd go as far to day if your a REAL bodybuilder it's life changing
Couldn’t agree more with this video nick! I think there should be some requirements of these guys that win the title! I’m sure hadi is the best guy ever, but zero effort into giving back to the fans. I personally get invested into the guys like nick walker and Derek Lunsford that you see consistently putting out content so you feel like you get to know overtime, and get a bit of personal connection to.
If someone is serious about being a professional, would you recommend they hire a coach immediately to maxamize their results as opposed to spending time in the gym just fluffing around?
When I flew back from Colombia, wearing a IPL Championship powerlifting shirt (that I competed in), the customs agent wanted to talk powerlifting for 5 minutes and never asked me a question ot looked at any of my stuff lol. I was only 19 and small.
I'm 6ft 4 , currently 250lbs ..... not a bodybuilder but been training for a solid 18 years now......... plane toilets are a nightmare !!!!!! Unless you standing up I hold it in....sitting down is out of the question, simple as that 😂😂😂

Big Mike was on fire this episode 😂😂. Had me laughing from start to finish .

Was literally waiting for a notification. Always drops when we need it most. Thanks Fouad!
That's cuz we always need a bro chat.

I’m sorry but Mike does look every bit of 42 😂
Iain is my fav personality in the ifbb
He’s like that annoying friend that argues everything but is still a solid dude
I lit don’t get the hate towards him at all, the dude knows his stuff and is pretty damn smart when it comes to bbing
Been struggling lately. This podcast helps a lot. Thanks foo
You got this, Isiah!

Love it welcome back Paul and Mike Fouad actually listens to his viewers

That Dossile joke was fucking funny hahaha

Agree that it’s a dead joke now, but the captions alone made me laugh. Paul asking Iain if he was really gay (2X) LOL.
02:30 Show starts.
Prepping for my first marathon in October. This came in perfect timing before my morning run:).
Kill it brother!!
Good luck!

Having Mike and Paul on the show is THE BEST!
And no guy. Win
from 1:30 on GREAT bodybuikding chat...really enjoyed that !!! Mike van Wyck is so damn good !!!
If I see any of you, I will be a fanboy… but respectful! You guys are great; thanks for the podcast!
This group is always really something 🔥❤
This is the best group laughs the whole time Tom of knowledge and experience too just good cemistry together and always puts me in a good mood❤
Just the video I needed for this 2 hour flight 🤝
@32:06
Mike: where is it
Paul: Toronto
😂 no one acknowledged it
Would be awesome if Fouad had Mike do a training seminar at the Fouad Abiad Classic
29:00 iain talks about how Melissa is his beard
Iain Justin and Paul is the goated podcast. Love all the other guys too though
Best Swayze one liner from roadhouse.."pain don't hurt"
CLASSIC.....😅
“I’ll sleep when I’m dead”
“The Wire” is my favorite TV show of all time. 20 years old and I still think it’s the best show ever on television.
The first thing I do before I even watch the podcast is like the video because I know it will always be amazing!!! If ive watched 200 episodes, Ive loved 200 episode!❤
Thank you!
Mike is absolutely hilarious 😂

And im not ever like that but i apparently am still capable of being a judgmental D tho. Hes the best. Smart smart vision of training. Very logical thinking to his solutions.
“Let me just say, yeah it’s gay but” 😂😂😂 this fkn podcast man
If you could somehow have Justin in this group too without it being too crowded, THIS would be the group of all groups.
Absolutely
Good old toilet talk. I put the seat down to flush all the time now because of the plume talk a while back 🤣

This is really helpful. Thanks
The first 30 minutes made my cardio soooo much funnier 😂
Same here. Started my 90' Stairs cardio, and with this episode time has flown by.
Always rolling with the Canadian crew 😂😂😂
Absolutely love the form talk, some of my favorite conversations on the pod
Toronto Pro has the ambiance of an AA meeting😂
Thank you Mike! You perfectly explained how I need to fix my lagging back. I'm 6ft 2 former basketball player long arms wide shoulders wide lats, but I'm missing the middle back thickness and I feel your tip here is going to be a gamechanger!
Fouad you need to go to Pure and film a training sesh with Mike already !!!
Mike will come to the HOSSTILE gym when he’s in town!
@@FouadAbiad hell yea brother. Can’t wait !
12:07 what happened after with the test?
Needed this today! Happy hump day Fouad!!!
Definitely should drop a playlist on Apple Music from all the music suggestions u get on the podcast
Fouad's sentiment is totally normal. You normally want to associate and be associated with people of similar level or similar background or insterest. My best friends are the ones comfortable giving me shit and taking shit from me.
It'd be cool have/see Big Mike train the boys!
These need to be called
BRO CHAT EYYY
with the all Canadian crew
I love this group, such a good dynamic
Thanks for the upload Fouad another banger of podcast
Mike was talking about "we own this city" about the Baltimore cops. Amazing show highly recommend
I could relate to all the airport stories, I was laughing so hard. What I hate the most is people with poor hygiene, siting next to u. Great show

Best lineup without a doubt!!
I always overpack. I take everything. I’ve had airport workers ask how long I was going for because my bag was overweight… it was only for a long weekend. 😂
Love hearing Fouad praise John Meadows, he definitely was more than just a Coach ❤️ time to go and watch some vids of the Mountain Dog 👊
I agree with Fouad 100%. I don't have a problem with carry-on luggage. The problem is when people stow both their carry-on AND their personal item (like a backpack or giant purse) in the overhead bin. That's what eats up all the space and necessitates gate-checked bags.

Plz try to have guy n jose on the same podcast next time🙏🏼
Yeah but let’s have Nick back man. He loves these guys so I hope they sort it out soon.
Gotta sacrifice one Bro Chat episode to have Iain on Bodybuilding and Bollocks.
The Wire is hands down the best tv series ever created.
This is coming from someone who is obsessed, I've probably forgotten more shows then most have ever seen.
I've watched the wire in full over 12x
sopranos is runner up with 6x
I have always wondered: where does the stuff in the toilet goes when flushed on an airplane???
Big Foo 💪🏻 always enjoy this groups conversation
The wire is amazing! Def watch it. I recently finished my 4th rewatch.
Great episode. Great dynamics . Funny AF
Paul in the house! 🎉
Anything boxing, particularly true stories, Prizefighter, will check it out, thanks Fouad!
I suggested Jay run for Governor of Nevada or Mayor of Las Vegas on one of his podcasts in the comment section. It got tons of thumbs ups.
5:25 - 5:26 *stop smoking weed you junkie* I was literally taking a bong rip when you said that. Seeing as I have the podcast on bluetooth speakers it was loud and scared the fk outta me. I nearly choked and almost dropped my bong LMFAO. Well done Fouad. You nearly killed me HAHAHAHA
Iain says: people are married to mannequins…funny and true….
Whose idea was it for Samson to use the music from Fuads Arnold routine?
Been thinking about you guys !!! 🎉🎉🎉
If Paul is Dalton in Roadhouse, I’m Wade Garret 😂🤛
I live across from Brennan high school, a friend of mine invited me to watch a football game where his son was playing on the visiting team (Herman/ "the green machine").
Herman ended up beating Brennan so bad that the Herman team was playing their third QB.
The Brennan football coach yelled and insulted his team so bad my wife (who could hear him in the house) was going to call the school to help the kids. Haha
So, yes football coaches haven't really changed.
You can have a switchblade that can be automatically eject out, it just cant retract back in automatically with a button
Paul laughs like Elmo 😂
Mikes got the funniest shi to say I was in tears
Roman fanclub back to asking fouad to bring him back
Definitely go watch The Wire, Fouad. It's my top show of all time, bar none.
Can't wait to see Foaud Wick in theaters later on 😎 😂
mikes favorite cue is rock back 😂, for us who are more advanced it makes sense but my buddy was like what does that even mean 🤣🤣
I would be willing to get u don’t get it either
This is the best crew

I hired a coach from day one. Yes. Hire someone reputable and learn the proper way.
I love Mike but didn’t ever think he was 42 lol if I didn’t know him I’d think early 50s ❤
When I flew back from Colombia, wearing a IPL Championship powerlifting shirt (that I competed in), the customs agent wanted to talk powerlifting for 5 minutes and never asked me a question ot looked at any of my stuff lol. I was only 19 and small.
LOVE THIS! THANK YOU FOUAD!!!
I have a hour of cardio to do today. Mahalo. Just in time.
Mike looks pretty young and hip with his beard 🧔♂️
Thanks guys 4real thanks a lot

Big fan of the Canadian Dry shirt. I've bought it twice. The white gets dirty after a while.
100% I always got “random” checks after 9-11. It stopped when I got my global entry and TSA precheck.
Love the pod, as always. Appreciate all you do.
Speaking of merch drops...BRING BACK THE #PERMABULK shirts.
We need to see Big Mike training Fouad will be great ❤
Hatebreed-“before the fight ends you”!!! Amazing bad ass song!!!👍🏻
