Meet Sammy Pham | Fitness Trainer

We had the good fortune of connecting with Sammy Pham and we’ve shared our conversation below.

Hi Sammy, how do you define success?
By making an impact on what you do that drives you to your passion but importantly making an impact on others around you. It keeps you going. If you could impact just person or anybody that is good enough for me because it can cause an ripple affect to others and so fourth.

Alright, so let’s move onto what keeps you busy professionally?
To have and keep faith. Surround yourself with positive people who help push and elevate you to be better and do better. In this world there aren’t many people like that. Block all negative people in your life cause they will drag and pull you down into not to succeed. Trust your instincts/intuition cause when you’re at your lowest point in your life you know who the real ones are, the ones that sticks by you and want see you succeed in all aspects of life.

If you had a friend visiting you, what are some of the local spots you’d want to take them around to?
For eating depends on what he/she likes for example: Sushi i would take he/she to Uchi or if they like burgers Roko Grill. Tacos i would diffently recommend Mas Taco across from Stratford HighSchool on Diary Ashford. Poke would be another spot as well. For drinks im not much of a drinker so i dont know any spots now. Would diffently take them to Houston fine arts museum. For hang out i would bring them to my friends so they can network and introduce them so they can make friends.

Who else deserves some credit and recognition?
There are several people that deserve recognition no doubt. I would call them my circle of (Phamuly). First and foremost my mom for supporting me in everything I do in becoming a Certified Personal Trainer and being with me through thick and thin.

2nd Maria J. and Cindy L. My posing coach who help me at my 2nd bodybuilding show and life lessons logic and my lil Sister i’ve never had that keeps me in check and tell me how it is with no filter also for supplying food when im in need with my current situation.

Third Eric C. owner of Pumpd Nutrition katy @saums for helping with what he can.

Lastly, my coach, friend, brother from another mother, mentor Charles aka Semeon (Seemenow) for taking me under is wing etc. He has does alot and i know he has from helping getting jobs when i was homeless so i can get off my feet. To take me in as his competitor to show again and didnt charge me a dime. Everything im in his debt. For igniting my passion to ment i was made to do which i love is training but train people with ethics. For that i am very grateful for.
