Personal Trainer
Sam believes that working out is “Therapy”. For Sam, working out is not just a physical thing but it also helps him keep himself strong and confident mentally. Sam tries to never take breaks between days and maintains a very strict diet.
His diet often contains a meal plan of 25% protein like chicken, turkey, eggs, and fish, 15% vegetables like broccoli, green beans, asparagus, and 25% complex carbs. He focuses more on keeping himself lean and ripped rather than bulky.
Sam maintains a low-key balanced workout rather than going on all spree to either build bulk or go all lean. He focuses on a lot of cardio and maintaining a lean physique by doing full-body workouts. This type of workout routine helps him build muscle at a faster rate.
