Sam Sulek Age, Height, and Weight
Sulek earned his Pro Card at the 2025 Arnold Amateur in the Classic Physique division. Sulek earned qualification to this show following a victory at the 2025 Legends Classic in Las Vegas just weeks before. This was Sulek’s bodybuilding debut competition after he built a reputation as one of the most popular fitness stars in the world.
- Sam Sulek stands at 5’11” tall, and is still very young, having just turned 22 in February of 2024. Though he is young, he still carries around a massive amount of muscle mass and relatively low body fat levels, even during his bulking phase. It is also worth noting that his muscle mass is very matured, meaning there are striations and it is well-developed as though he has been lifting for decades.
- When he is trying to put on size, Sam Sulek weighs around 240lbs. It is not often that you see younger bodybuilders holding that much muscle.
So, how did he get that big? While some solely blame steroids for his success, Sulek’s weight, like most bodybuilders, is not constant. His weight certainly varies based on his bulking routine or cutting periods. Many bodybuilders tend to fluctuate in weight or put on more mass to develop more of his muscles. At the end of one of his cutting seasons in October 2023, Sulek weighed in at 233 lbs (105 kg).
The 2026 Arnold Classic features a loaded lineup across the board. In Classic Physique, Sulek will get the chance to test himself against some of the other top competitors in the world, including two-time Olympia runner-up Mike Sommerfeld and former Arnold champ Wesley Vissers.
