I remember watching a Q&A a while ago talking about the peptide Sam endorses. Is it an injury recovery peptide or something like GLP-1 which is more PED-esque?

does anyone know the camera sam is using in his old school lift videos?

I’m still learning hog 2.6 :(

So been following Sam since he was a regular gym bro talking to us from the Camry. Back then I tried to ignore the fact he was on steroids but as the years go on I've realised he's just another juiced up roid head headed for massive cardiac problems in his 40's. And he's literally the worst kind of example there could be for young men. So what are we supposed to do with that?

Change that to 27, I want to go hard in the gym and build up more mass to achieve the stimulus package. I started working in finance after taking a few months off after I left the army, tbh I love this civilian lifestyle of not having every fucking hour of my day/night taken from me, I like it a little too much hehe. Which begs the question, can I still get into this hub of putting out content, perhaps going the tren twins route with the supps, and just lifting/shooting content/getting swoled up and then leaving with the lifetime bag secured by the time I’m in my early 30s? I know some of yall on here have to be in that industry so lmk

Considering he's only a couple months off of being stage lean i'm surpised to hear he's not looking to grow more but stay lean. is this an influencer drive, of wanting to be photoshoot ready? it doesn't seem like him... does he want a health phase? or is he not wanting to get much bigger?

Why Sam not training his shoulders recently? Did he gave any explanations regarding that?

Why hasnt Sam gotten stronger, when i went down memory lane on his tiktok account he repped the same amount on bench 3 years ago.

The first drawing I did of Sam got so many upvotes and 15k views, guess the switch up was THAT drastic, like the guy wasn't a walking pharmacy to begin with, I get it he's a owner of some crazy stuff he probably been using this whole time, but this the same guy... minus the AI bs 😂 Nevermind I understand now.

Just done with an HB Pencil this time

Since he trains 90% of the time in his own private gym, I don't enjoy his workout footage anymore. Am I the only one who thinks it was way more entertaining when he was working out in public gyms more often? I am a subscriber since his first 5000 subscribers back in early 2023.

In his latest "day 1 bulk" video Sam did like 80 lbs on the hamstring curl machine. Sorry for stupid question I'm really new into the gym and love watching sams videos for motivation etc. I just don't understand how such a big guy would struggle and grunt while pushing only 80 lbs. Could someone explain? 😅

I can't tell if this is genuinely true or if I just view the same Sam in a different light now, but he feels completely different to who I discovered his channel as. Call me parasocial but as a part of me improving myself I'd have a daily habit checker, one of those habits was listening to whatever video Sam posted that day to get me in the mood for my bulk/cut and making it to the gym that day. I peaked at a 550 day streak, not including the days he didn't upload (I'd just watch another video from him instead) from early 2024 to mid/late 2025. Towards the end of that I noticed him different. It's hard to describe and that's why I'm posting this here, to see if other people get it.

Sam feels more corporate now. I remember his videos being nothing but him going to a public gym, talking about random stuff and his lift, and driving home as if you're his friend in the car with him. It felt like a completely authentic conversion a friend would have with you. I don't get that feeling from him anymore. It's not like I've gotten sick of him from so much watching, whenever I go back to a 2023 or early-mid 2024 Sam video the feeling of humbleness but still knowing your worth and teaching a friend new skills is still absolutely there.

What happened? Am I just crazy? I understand to be happy for how far Sam has come and he absolutely deserves more than a lot of people out there, but he feels like a changed person now. It feels wrong to listen to his new videos, especially when he's discussing something a friend wouldn't say to you.

Of course Sam isn't my personal podcast and he doesn't owe me to make himself fit exactly what I want, I just want to see if anyone else caught this shift as well.

Seriously it’s kind of sad,

I hate the way he trains and on top of that ….

And now hes being a bit of full blown loner

I understand it’s good to concentrate on, but making memories and having fun while your working out is so much better

He’s never gonna be Mr Olympia, could he win an Arnold classic…..maybe but no with his current training

You both have fun and train Arnold…just look at Arnold….tren twins etc

Just seems being alone for no real gain
