Day In The Life of Fit Couple Foodies Ida and Henrik

Day-in-the-life YouTube vlog featuring fitness-focused couple Ida and Henrik. The video follows a morning hike (Los Leones, views of Malibu), a donut stop in Santa Monica, protein-rich home breakfast (protein pancakes using ~120 g Kodiak mix), and an intense leg workout at Gold's Gym in Venice Beach. They describe workout structure (e.g., walking lunges: three working sets of 40 reps), supplements/preworkout choices, post-workout meal at Bluestone Lane, and their daily work split (Ida: coaching; Henrik: creating/editing content across multiple platforms). The tone is informal, upbeat, and promotional of their lifestyle.

Welcome to Redis beach, baby.
Hi, guys. I'm Ida.
I'm Henrik.
And we are the cup foodies. And today we're going for a hike.
Yeah, this is too early for me though.
We're heading towards.
Towards Malibu actually.
So this hike is called Los Leones favorite hike. Yeah. And it's going to be on that mountain you can see right there. But just a little more to the inlands. You will see the views of Malibu. You will see the entire city from up there. It's beautiful.
Yeah.
And normally this would be like.
A rest day kind of hike, but today we're doing us a pre leg day hike.
We have a stop to do though first. A small little stop, which is very important if you are in a life with the fit couple foodies. So.
Yeah, what are we going to do in Santa Monica before the hike? Donuts. You're sharp. Either he's sharp or he's really numerous for donuts.
Yeah. Or he knows us.
Yeah, that too. I think we are going for donuts. You and me and camera.
I want to have one celebration cake, one passion fruit and then one of the cinnamon roll away.
Oh my God. Dude, this donut is the best in the world.
It's next level.
Literally.
Look at that. Okay, and who shows that one? Yep.
Sprink sprinkles bros, bro.
A little bit of a crisp out layer.
Look at that gooey middle. Oh, my God. Okay, cheers.
Oh my God. Look at that inside.
Okay, how do you rate that one?
Oh, that's a freaking nine out of ten. Okay. This one, Top donut in the entire world. It's kind of fancy. Like $5.
Yeah, probably more. I think it was like 16 for three.
Look at that. Passion fruit on top.
Should I go in again? So this one I think they call like a bullseye. And it's like passion fruit cream on top with some passion fruit compote. And it's just like absolutely marvelous. And I'm definitely gonna be right here. So bad angle, but here we go.
Okay.
Hits every time. And this bullseye they have on top, this cream is crazy. Cheers.
I know, I know.
Oh my God. Turn. Our turn.
Because the thing is, it's not too sweet. Yeah, it's just like absolutely perfect. It's almost like a savor. It's almost like a savory bread because it's not sweet.
And then you get brioche.
That's what it is. It is a brioche yeasted bun or like donut. But that's fire. That's simply fire.
Solid Breakfast could you tell where my.
Head was at when you found me?
Welcome to a humble abod am Castle.
Castle man I thought I had everything I was lonely now you're my everything.
I was nice you number one I.
Missed a lot of love with a lot of drugs that I found you she like petty crime she had green eyes like Mountain Dew and where she go I'll never know her friends bounce to I guess it's their loss but they'll never know what we'll mount to.
That'S so far.
Put a smile on his face at the end of the day MDMA I'm just fly away.
Could have known who the known you would fly my kite could you tell? Could you tell?
Could you tell?
This place is worth a thumbs up. So, like the video, it's really nice.
You can keep going as well.
Yeah. So if you're down for a little bit of a harsher workout, you should keep climbing up the hills because it gets more steep. So I would say that so far this is like an mellow.
Everyone can do it.
Yeah. So now it's time for actually the real breakfast. Because donuts doesn't really count. We need to go home, have breakfast, and then get going for a leg day.
It's a leg day breakfast, so it's more than we usually do.
Especially since we also did a hike. If it was just a lighter morning walk on flat surface, we might just go for a very light breakfast. But today, also, since we have a camera, we want to show you something good. It's gonna smell even better soon because I'm gonna do pancakes. So Henrik slid into my DMs, but not Instagram. That was Facebook because, yes, we are.
That old and we've been together for forever. So it was Facebook back then.
Yeah.
I don't think it was any DMs back then.
It was messenger.
Yeah. No DMs on Instagram.
No, exactly. Instagram has had you started 10 years ago. We actually had met before. Before he slid into my DMs. We had met on fitness expos around in Sweden.
Yeah.
And then he was very, very, very annoying and did not back off because I was really not interested. I was not in a phase where I wanted to meet anyone. And I definitely did not want to meet a guy online because that was like, that's not him. Yeah. It just didn't make sense.
No, it wasn't creepy.
No. But you looked like a Poco Loco. You were like, so polished. Like, not the kind of guy that I like. I was like he's so full of himself. Not my kind of guy. But then when we actually did meet ourselves the first time.
That's a book by his cover.
I definitely judged a book by his cover because he really made me laugh, like a really deep laugh. And he was just so kind, so warm hearted and absolutely not a shallow guy at all. So yeah, I kind of fell for the second we met and hung out and then we have been together ever since.
Okay. Yeah, that's the question. What are we doing for flavor in the pancakes? Probably you want cinnamon pancakes or peanut butter?
No, I want to have peanut butter.
Yeah, you made it.
I made it. So salted peanut butter might be the best flavor ever made in a protein.
I'm so happy that I have it in both level one and Formula one.
Yes. Then you can enjoy it either in pancakes, smoothies, ice cream or post workout, which Formula one is perfect for. So there's always going to be a way to implement salted peanuts. We're doing two portions.
And roughly we use like 120 grams of Kodiak. 123. And the most important part, because it's the two of us, I'm going to take a little bit extra so and then you want to mix it up with a good texture.
And we really never really know exactly what that's going to be looking like.
You don't want to have it too thick and not too.
Watery and this is going to be a little bit too thick, so I'm going to have a little bit more. But this is guy guys. This is the most ring thing. You have to like really get the sense of the batter before and then you can add more if needed. It is one of my favorite breakfasts or evening meals because we want to have as much protein as possible in evening.
So I used to play ice hockey. I played ice hockey my whole life, so. And then it stopped and I stopped with that because I had too much injuries like elbows, shoulders. I started to getting to more and more strength training into the gym. So yeah, it ended up that way for me. So I will always been training but now it's just bodybuilding training. So. Yeah, always been active my whole life. A lot of sports, football, hockey, mostly hockey. But yeah, that's how I. Yeah, that's you. Yes.
And for me while I'm pouring these bad boys in.
I did no balls for you. No, I am actually really bad at ball sports but I actually did do volleyball for a little bit of time. I did, but I, I realized that was so bad It's a little bit too thick.
So we renovated our house when I was like 12, 13 years old, and I realized that I was like, naturally very strong. So I started to help out my neighbor's yard, and he had a lot of, like, logs, big stones and timber and stuff like that. So I played, I had as a strongman playground when I was like 13, 14. And then I asked if I can join a gym, and the owner said if I can show you the ropes, like how to do it, it's okay because you're literally a little bit too young. But with parents consent and my help, you are allowed to come here when you're 14. So 14, I step into the gym and I made a deadlift. And that was best thing I've ever done, and that hooked me. So Since I was 14 years old, I have been lifting weights. And that is how you make a pancake.
Oh, Solid out layer.
But this is going to be the problem with our nice fancy kitchen. That one is crooked, so it's very uneven. And this one is very slow, so it's never going to be done. Are you excited for leg day?
I actually am. I love leg day. That's my favorite day of the week. I can train legs four times a week, easy.
The most crucial Instagram part. Yeah, the stacking.
The stacking of the cakes and the.
Pouring from the maple syrup.
Yep.
Oh, yes.
And here we go.
Oh, there are so moist. Good job.
Let us see.
Do a real money bite here with some banana. Okay. Cheers.
Cheers.
Oh, my God.
Okay.
Peanut butter. It tastes peanut butter. I am the happiest alive. Yeah. I would say 8.1.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Nice. Breakfast before legs. Yeah.
And then now we need to post while we do this. And then pre workout and hit that leg day. Yeah. And change. I need to change. For today's pre workout, we're going to do something very strange.
I mean, this is a staple though.
Yes.
Focus, energy.
Energy and.
Oh, my God, stamina and hydration.
So these two together is optimal, especially for leg day, because you want to be able to really replenish and restore.
All and train for a long freaking time. Because we don't train 45 minutes. We train kind of long time, kind.
Of two and a half hours.
And this is my little twist for insane pump. I've been using the capsules lately.
I don't know why they are good.
It's just easier. Just. And the pump is just nasty. Absolutely nasty. So we're sipping on that first and then we take this just before we go.
Yeah. It's actually pineapple in both, which is amazing. Yeah, yeah.
So you also get the creatine in that one.
Yes, so which is very convenient. Yeah. So if we didn't use endorphins, if we went for just like alpha search and megabot, we would have to add in creatine.
Yeah.
But no, we don't need to do that since it is in the enduro formats. Cheers, mate.
Oh, cheers.
We are going to go to the Mecca Bodybuilding Gold's Gym in Venice Beach, California. And I have like the anxiety here now.
Okay, so.
One field set, which is a warm up set.
Yeah.
And then it's go time.
That is go time.
Three working sets, walking lunges, 40 reps time. Yeah, it's gonna be a, it's gonna be hard.
And the leg shake is already going on now, you know, in proper activation. Now let's start the workout.
We're gonna work up to a failure set. It's probably going to be plates all the way and just failure.
This machine is so darn heavy.
Same weight as me in everything today.
Yeah, but you did more.
I did, yeah. I did more reps there. But she's fucking strong.
One. Finally.
I'm already sore in my glutes, so. Were you sore right away?
You know, it's good, it's good. Yeah. That was a really good workout. Right now we're at the spot where they actually kind of already know what we're going to have. Yeah, we're always here. We like this place so much. It's a perfect place to just get healthy eats. It's called Bluestone Lane and we just love their food. So we're going to treat you into something good today.
This is the goat, the spicy chicken wrap. Very clean. As long as you don't finish the chips.
Yeah.
And this entire thing. But these potato veggies are our favorites of all time. So you have to have a few. So this is called the brekkie board. And here's a little bit of good stuff for about anything because you have the chicken, you have the protein source and you have a lot of good healthy fats from the avocado on the sourdough bread.
Thank you. And dessert.
Dessert, it's a granola bowl with yogurt and lemon curd and fresh berries. So good, so good.
Let's feast. Let's do a story. First. We are going boardwalk and then home.
Yes.
Drop our stuff, grab the computers, go down to our favorite coffee shop and do some work.
Yeah, we just left one coffee shop to go to another coffee shop. Yeah, but that is not to say this coffee is not good. It's just the habit of sitting with our computer on our office.
Yeah, just. Just nice to walk down in slippers and just be the Venice vibe, you know.
This is like the pre coffee dance because soon I. Because I know how like how back to life I will be. Because right now I'm out.
Copy acquired. It kind of differs a lot because that is what I love with our job. Because it is both content, but most primarily I'm a coach. So I coach people. But people are kind of fluent. So some days you will have a lot of people that has been like trying to get a hold of me. And some days it's just like mellow because they are doing other things or whatnot. But normally in the afternoons I sit and I do programming for my clients. And then later in the afternoons, towards the evening, it's call time again. So I have a few calls during that time. Just a lot of texting, a lot of calls, a lot of emails and programs.
For me, I shoot all the content, I edit all the content. You know, it's a lot of platforms, it's Snapchat, it's threads, it's TikTok, Instagram, Facebook, YouTube, long form and short form. So you know, it's a lot. So that's what I do.
And I think it's just important to sometimes stop and think that you're actually living the dream life that you had five years ago or 10 years ago. Because 10 years ago this was just like simply a. Well, that can never happen. But yeah, I can go ahead and dream. But then I think we realized that whatever you can actually visualize and see yourself doing, that is actually something that you can obtain and actually create for yourself. And I feel like we did that. So that is pretty much how a day looks like. Yeah, just a lot of activity, a lot of phone. No one wants to see our screen time.
Eat, sleep, work, train. Yeah, that's it.
That's pretty much exactly what we do. But we love it. And if.
Smash the like.
Yeah, smash the like.
Smash the like.
But also let us know down in the comments if you actually try out the workout, because that was a solid workout.
Oh, dude, you have to try it. Comment down below to try it.
Yeah, my glutes are hurting.
Yeah, it's gonna be sore in us tomorrow morning, I think.
Yeah.
Yeah.

Yeah. Have a good one. Bye, guys.
