About this listen

Finally Look Like You Lift is the no‑BS training and nutrition podcast for busy men 30–55 who already train… but still look softer than they should.


If you work big hours, lift 3-5x per week but you’re still hiding your stomach in photos – this show is for you.

I’m Sam Board, co-founder of Built Body Transformations Coaching. I help busy men become the strongest, leanest, most energetic version of themselves in 6–12 months without living like a bodybuilder or eating separate meals from their family.


Each episode gives you simple, proven systems to:
• Set up training that guarantees progression instead of random workouts
• Dial in food so you can get lean while still eating with your partner and kids
• Use data (not feelings) to break plateaus and control your bodyweight on demand
• Avoid the mistakes that keep most guys “doing the work” but not seeing it in the mirror


Most episodes are pulled straight from client calls, lessons, and breakdowns inside our coaching program – so you’re getting what actually works in the real world.

  • Train Hard But Don’t Grow? Fix This Workout Mistake.
    Dec 21 2025

    Train hard but not really growing? In this video I break down exactly how to use progressive overload so busy men 30–55 can finally build muscle on purpose instead of guessing.

    🎯 Get the free Training Blueprint (3‑5 day plan for men in their 30s to 50s who feel soft around the middle, train on and off, and are done “doing the work” without seeing it in the mirror):
    👉 https://builtbodytransformations.com/workout-program?utm_source=Podcast&utm_medium=Buzzsprout&utm_campaign=Workout_Program&utm_content=Sam_Board

    In this video you’ll learn:
    • Why your body only builds muscle when it feels like it has to
    • The simple rule: lift progression up = muscle up, flat = maintain, down = lose
    • Why “muscle confusion” and random workouts keep you small
    • How to set up your training so you beat last week’s numbers every session
    • What to do in a busy gym when equipment isn’t free, without ruining progress

    Who this channel is for:
    Men 30–55 who…
    • Work 40–80+ hours/week
    • Train 3–5 days/week and know words like macros, deficit, PPL
    • Eat with their family
    • Feel stupid that they still look soft and “don’t look like they lift”

    🚀 Want personal help?

    Dec 19 2025

    • The 4 parts of your daily calorie burn (BMR, TEF, exercise, NEAT)
