16 Days Out - Solid Arm Pump

This video is a short vlog from bodybuilder Sam Sulek, filmed 16 days out from a Classic Physique show. He explains how he stays under the 227‑pound weight limit at check‑in, then loads up on massive carbs—around 1,500+ grams—to look full on stage.

He runs two hours of cardio per day (walking on the treadmill) and keeps calories around 2,500, with no refeeds. His workout is a light arm‑pump session for biceps and triceps, using low weight and high reps to maximize the pump.

He also talks about hydration, sodium, and macros, stressing that balance matters more than fearing salt, and that understanding nutrition makes cutting or bulking much easier.
