The Item: Career Updates/Highlights

The Scoop: Athlete to Andrew: IFBB Pro Fouad Abiad adds cover boy to his list of titles. The Canada-based trainer landed a MuscleMag International cover that hit shelves this month. “It’s my first cover, of many hopefully. I am currently weighing in at 296 lbs, and I’m looking forward to the shows later this year,” Fouad tells me. In addition to the cover shot, Fouad informed me that he re-signed with MuscleTech. If the supp. co. contract wasn’t enough, he dropped another bomb. “I am also happy to state that I am now a member of the GASP clothing team.” Being a face (and body) for the athletic-inspired brand has an added benefit for the diesel-built man they call Hoss. “GASP clothes are really the only clothes that fit me properly!” Fouad is furiously training for a Tampa Bay show in August, and then he hopes to qualify for a slot The O. in September.

The “So What?”: Fouad recently celebrated his mag cover at a party at The Boom Boom Room, a Canadian nightclub. The musclehead, who occasionally rocks a Mohawk on the contest stage, is making major moves long-distance, snagging deals from Canada without making the move to Cali, the bodybuilding Mecca…yet.
