He sold his channel off and got out of the YouTube game for a minute. He's got his own channel now, but it's not fitness related:

Mike Chang
damn...this is crazy.

Even if his advice was a joke (never watched, but he was infamous for it), he probably did it the best.
Grew a legit business he was able to sell.

Yep. Mike Chang got straight to the point in his vids. Although the legitimacy of what he said may have been questionable.

Theres too much info out there now a days that they probably feel most their fan base would just use google instead of supporting them. I never turned to youtube for anything fitness related unless its for fukkery or gym fails. :pachaha:

That Youtube fitness stuff was always lame. Chris Jones was one of the actual good things to come out of the whole thing because he was a breh, all them other dudes were just corny skinny dudes talking broscience.

And then you had after about 2012 or so everyone thought they could start a fitness channel, then you saw all the popular cats getting the same sponsor ships and doing the exact same business moves (clothing line, gym, sup line) where it made me think someone in the back is just using these cats now to fatten their own pockets indirectly (i.e Gym Shark and Marc Lobliner).

:noah: Zuzka Light!

I used to watch them videos here and there :shaq:

I think her and her ex-husband had that BodyRock channel, they split up and he pushed her out of it and then revealed she did softcore porn. She disappeared for awhile it seemed, then one day I went to Bodybuilding.com and saw she was writing articles there so I guess she's doing alright :manny:

She even got a Wiki page :dead:

This is exactly whats going on.
Though Gym Shark are just some dudes who started a line...they were smart about it.
instead of trying to be all in the camera...they used the people who want nothing but attention (Youtube fitness community) to get their name up.


I still wonder why Chris Jones depends on Lobliner for his fitness line.
I even saw a video where Lobiner was talking about CJ and Vince and he said something like "No offense to them, but I have an actual business, not just tshirts".

Lobiner is the connect when it comes to Supplement Suppliers form his years in the industry. CJ money isn't long enough to try to bypass gate keepers like Marc.

Even from the clothing line stuff seems everyone uses the same suppliers (I`m assuming Gymshark put dudes on).

Seems everyone is selling the exact same products just with their logos on it.
