the internet
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.
nahh...the supplement industry is actually really easy to get into. There are so many manufacturers out there that will work with you.
The only minor issue is worrying about insurance.
Chris has the hard part handled...having a name.

Insurance in the sense of CYA if customers have reactions and crap?

yea...it could get a little costly...but its no big deal.

I know guys on forums like millionaire fastlane that made a bunch of money white labeling supplements.
I was looking into having some children toys manufactured...but the insurance for kids products is just crazy.

All someone like Chris Jones would have to do is contact one of the many factories in this country...he would tell them what he wants in each product, and they would manufacture and label everything he wanted.
After that, he would just need to find a fulfillment center that would handle customer service and shipping...or he use Amazon.

The internet has changed the game...shyt is crazy easy to do now.
A lot of people just dont realize it.

Lobiner is a middle man for those dudes who don want to put in the work.

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".

Knowing marc, it's prolly more than just sharecropping sponsoring and he prolly has cj locked in a contract. Dude latched onto vince and chris
until the supps came out then backed away and started talking slick. It's crazy, all these years and marc is still getting away with shyt.

When that original pog preworkout dropped their supplement profile were nearly identical to marc's preworkout. Next thing you know cj/vince had the maching benzs, I immediately knew what the deal was. Barthel fitness is who chris should've sought for business advice or molded his business model after.

Dude is on that Buzzfeed clickbait bullshyt. I was subscribed for a while but I unsubscribed.

shyt's not difficult. Eat, but not too much. Do a program that hits all body parts and has a reasonable pace of progression and rest. Start your summer cut in like February. The rest is just entertainment :pachaha:

That's a good point. There's an over saturation of information regarding fitness that there's almost no point in all of these channels. Outside of recommending certain splits and exercises, the fundamentals are all the same. I've yet to see anything new in regards to health and fitness in the last couple of years. You tend to get the same topics repeated in all these videos:
-Which split is the best
-Clean eating vs IIFYM
-Intermittent fasting
-Cardio recommendations

Vlogging is really the only way to stand out and even now you're starting to see people do the same things in their vlogs. Workout, eat, buy expensive stuff, repeat.

: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:

Zuzka Light - Wikipedia

I used to watch her on youtube:ohlawd:

I just seen some of her stuff on xhamster :whoo:

You mean the fake motivation and narcissism which surrounds the "Fitness" Industry on YT and IG?

As someone who worked in the industry a bit, it pisses me off.
