"Sam Sulek, do you know him?" asks Urs Kalecinski.

"Yeah. He rules the world," Bumstead replies.

"Every fucking youtuber with a thousand subscribers is now sitting in his car strapping that fucking microphone to his head," Kalecinski laughs.

"That's kind of nice to see, you know?" said Cbum. "It's a shift. I like the guy. I'm going to retire and just dude - he can take over."

The reigning five-time Classic Physique king wasn't the only bodybuilder to praise Sulek. Lee Priest, a retired IFBB professional, recently spoke about his influence on the sport. While there is speculation about Sulek's steroid use, Priest warned him to prefer a gradual and intelligent approach to gaining mass.

Also taking a closer look at the Sam Sulek effect is bodybuilder extraordinaire Seth Feroce. Feroce advised those who are crashing Sam's diet to focus on themselves instead. According to Feroce, Sam Sulek is much more mature than he was at 21 and like Priest, he believes he has a bright future ahead of him in the sport.
