A Day In The Life In Marbella // Grocery Haul & Pull Workout

Morning everyone, I've never ever in my life driven a Mini Cooper, but there's a first time for everything. This vlog is that first time. Hold on, wait a minute, before we crack on with the most epic vlog ever, we gotta hear a word from our sponsors. Big shout out to BluMaan for sponsoring today's video. Not only have they sponsored today's video, but they are the secret behind my luscious locks. They're how I get my hair looking so damn good. Unreal one, you know I don't do YouTube sponsorships too much, but this is really solid product. I've seen a lot of my friends do it recently as well and work with them, such as Joey Dee, Max Tuning, Brandon Harding, and the one and only Christian Guzman. And can I just say, we all have excellent hair apart from Joe, you know, previous Joe, like a year ago. It's good now, but he did go through a rough patch. So they sent me a few bits, and so what I would recommend really trying out is the Discovery Styling Kit. It's basically like a little snack box of different hair products, okay? So you can try out which one suits you best. With me, I've been using a matte for so many years, and I find that this gives my hair a really good textured look. It doesn't look like I have too much product in, but then it also has a really firm hold as well. So if you're looking for a matte effect, my choice is the Monarch Matte Paste, the one with the green line on it. Seriously cool branding as well. So again, a huge shout out and a big thank you for BluMaan for sponsoring this video. I'm gonna do some stuff with them over on Instagram as well, so I really appreciate it, and I'll include all links in their product down below. They ship worldwide. All the details are in the description box. Go check it out. Now let's get on with the vlog. Got a good few updates for you guys as well. First of all, I'm still waiting on my car, or trying to figure out how to transport my car from Dublin to Marbella. If there's anyone out there with logistics company, please hit me up. But in the meanwhile, I got this absolute beast. I actually think it's pretty cool. For like the next week or so, I might extend it, we'll see. And then some more updates as well, some great news on Fuel Cakes. So I'm obviously what I work on constantly is new flavor coming very soon. I should have some samples today to test out on camera for you guys. And also the price will be going down a little bit too because we just did another big order. The brand is growing. Like I said, economies of scale, once they start taking place, we'll be able to make it more accessible for everyone. So let me get out of the sun. So that is, uh, what I've been working on pretty much. Also a little bit more news is gyms in Marbella are closing for 2 weeks, but the gym that you guys saw last day, Real Paddle Club, Padel Club, Real Paddle Club Marbella, that's got an outdoor gym which is allowed to stay open. The gains continue, thank God. I'm so relieved. Like, my training right now is probably the best it's been in a very, very long time. So consistent right now. And so today will be a good day of like training and eating and all that good stuff. So let's get into the vlog, give it a thumbs up, and uh, let's have a sick day. The weather is also Amazing today. It's so good. So, all right, let's go. These are the PR boxes that get sent out. Look at this, right? Look at the quality of that. And Joe, this is, this is the first time I'm actually getting one, so I'm like, I am the PR has become PR'd. PR stands for public relations, not personal record, by the way. We like both types. So, okay, so first of all, these are the samples of different flavors. I'll be trying them out on camera today. It'll be like the Hunger Games of pancakes. And then this, I can show you guys this all over social media. So when we— I sent, for example, I sent one out to Joey D there the other day. And so this is what you get. You got a nice little welcome card there. You of course get the pancakes, the classic buttermilk. And then this is— this is my first time getting one of these. Like, I'm so excited about this.

Let's see, matches your Mini.

Yeah, yeah, I'm just gonna be driving around Marbella in one of these and Mini Coopers, like, all right. I'm gonna put this on, uh, after the gym and we're gonna have a little pancake-a-thon. So yeah, it's gonna be sick. But now we're gonna off to the gym, outdoor session of course, and, um, yep, we're gonna be having a sick day. I thought I was gonna have to train full body today because gyms were— I thought gyms were closing, so I was like, oh, I'm gonna get everything in before they close. But now they're not, so I'm like, just gonna carry on as usual. It's a pull day, so let's get it. Well, well, well, big session done. Now to hop back into the absolute beast of a whip. What do we call it? Lip Cooper. That was, that was the worst name ever. We're gonna get some brunch now. I've eaten pretty much nothing all day. It's gonna be my first meal of the day. And then because it's such a nice day, I think it's about 22 degrees, so grateful to be here, uh, we're gonna go on a little short hike, then we're gonna do pancake testing. And that is a pretty sick day. So right, I'll show you what we get for lunch. I'm thinking avocado toast. That's what I'm thinking. G7X is so good for filming food. Look at that, Linda, with the fries. Skinny fries. All right, so I lied, we didn't get avocado toast. Saw tacos on the menu, saw everyone around here eating tacos. This is a place called Ground, which is just below Breathe Marbella. Such a nice spot, amazing. And so yeah, ended up getting the tacos. They look amazing. So This is pretty much the first meal I've eaten today. Pretty decent amount of chicken there. See, good bit of carb, good bit of fat with sour cream. Try not to eat all that. Yeah, it's all good. Let's eat this and go on a big hike. Right, I am in a little bit of a food coma now, so we're just trying to walk that off. But look at these views, and look at that. Can you see that? One day we're gonna hike up to the top of that, but today is not that day. So we're gonna just have a little stroll around here, um, nothing too intense. Then we're gonna go home, chill for a little bit, and then do that food shop later and finish off with testing the pancakes. I'm super excited for that. It's 3 flavors to choose from. Wow. I just realized I've been wearing this t-shirt in like every Marbella vlog. It's just like a t-shirt that I just like throw on. Anyways, right, so after our hike, I went home, chilled for a little bit, and I got out of gym gear. And now we're actually in Old Town Marbella, which is like— like Portobeneu can be like, you know, Lambos and Ferraris and like designer shops. It can be a bit glitzy, some people don't like it. Marbella Old Town is so nice, like it's, it's just really like European. And so yeah, I just want to show you guys this. So we decided to do our little shop down this way so we could walk through town, go to Aldi or Lidl and get some goods and finish off with the pancakes. But yeah, it's absolutely beautiful. And comment down below if you've ever been here. We're European creatives, we're very classy. Mini review, mini review. Okay, so first impressions, I love it. And the last car that I drove Do you know what it was? It was a big badass white G-Wagon in Dubai, and that was absolutely terrible to drive, to be honest. Like, look, it's one of my favorite cars. I love it. I'd obviously take one in a heartbeat, but they like sway. You feel like you're about to tip over in them. They're like kind of stressful to drive, especially in Dubai. This Mini, I'm like, look, I'm like nipping around these little European streets. I'm like, I'm loving it. I'm living my best life right now.

European creative, classy, um, classy Instagram page, Good Life page.

Um, but yeah, no, I absolutely really like to drive it and, um, it's a pleasure. It's fast as well, it's nippy. I love it. Talking to a lot of people, um, when I put up that story today about— I was like, any logistics experts on here? And actually loads of people got in touch with me and so should be able to get the Mercedes over, um, for a pretty decent price as well. So that'd be sick. Anyways, onwards to Aldi or Lidl? Where are we going?

We're going to Aldi.

Sick. Let's go, Aldi, give me some bargains. There she is, ladies and gentlemen, glorious Aldi. I am going to go in, I am going to go to town here. First proper grocery haul of Marbella, and I'll show you everything that we got when I get home. So yeah, can't wait, let's go. See you at home. Oh boy, look at all that. Right, I'm gonna be honest, I'm absolutely starving and I want to eat the pancakes, but I gotta show you what we got in Aldi because we got a big haul. Look at that, let's just go through really quick. All right, it's an OG grocery haul, so first one while we're here in Spain. Let's just breeze through it. Okay, bottled water, you can't drink the tap water here. Okay, the bottled water is pretty nice, so So I'm not complaining. Living that good life now, really. Okay, Corn Flakes. Whenever Linda is like just going through my head, I just put a bowl of cereal in front of her. They're cheap and effective. They work every time. So if your girlfriend's giving you some grief, give her some Corn Flakes. Okay, so I got the ultra large box just to really keep her at bay. I also love Corn Flakes as well. Got the Coke Zeros. They actually didn't have any poppy soda. Like I don't know what was going on there. Poor selection, but look, it'll do. Candle, it's a funky looking candle. Now, uh, some melatonin as well. They're sugar-free jelly flavors, and these kind of help me get to sleep. I'm a terrible sleeper, and sleep is just one of the most important things to factor in when it comes to your health and even your training, your body composition. So you can't even actually get these in Ireland and the UK, so pretty Pumped about that. Vitamin C, because my— like, I, I take— I'm so on point with vitamin C, vitamin D, my fish oils, all my vitamins and minerals. I'm like as consistent with them as I am like, you know, creatine, pre-workout, whey protein. Especially nowadays, we need to work on our immune system, we need to not get sick. So take your goddamn vitamins, eat your greens. But I haven't been sick in, I'd say, over 10 years. So that's great. We got some pasta sauce. And so some pasta sauces are like really high in sugar. Just check the per 100 grams, uh, how much carbs are in them or how much calories. And like some of them, like this is just made with vegetables, so it's like loads of flavor, will like make meals, stop meals from being like bland and dry and not much calories at all. And like, you know, if you're gonna eat pasta, you might as well like choose a calorie-friendly sauce. We got bananas. Got some little wholemeal, whole grain rice pots there. Garlic to put on the meat. We got steak, some lean bacon. You can kind of see, like, when you're choosing, um, like, you know, bacon and steak, look for stuff that isn't all marbly and white. The leaner looking it is, the leaner it is. Some Spanish meats here, some ham. Again, check the back of that, pretty low fat too, so good macros, high protein. Chicken breast, turkey. This I've never seen before in my life, ever. Frozen sushi. Apparently you let it defrost and you eat it. Like, I love sushi. I just— it was like €1. I'm gonna give it a shot. Some chicken teriyaki skewers, a big old pineapple, some cream cheese. Put that on some bagels, get Joey D around. It's a good time. Strawberries. What do you call these? Some people call them clementines.

Easy Peelers.

That's not a fruit, Linda.

Oranges.

Or comment below, what is that? Okay, mini oranges. Grapes, again, I love them, but they can actually, like, if you weigh out a bowl of grapes— so much grapes— if you weigh out a bowl of grapes, they can add up. And just some more veggies here. Peppers, apples, nuts. This is a rare vegetable found in the depths of the jungles of the Brazilian rainforest. Okay, avo. And poverty protein bars, I have no clue how these taste. They're a pretty good price, I think they're like 5 or 7 quid. Or actually, no, they're like, yeah, 7. They're €1 per bar, so I thought that was a pretty good price. Some dark chocolate. Then over here we got some pizzas. Again, you know I'm all about including pizza into your diet. And when you like look at the like And you look at like the calories in one of these and you compare them to like the calories in the Domino's, it's just like, it's like a quarter if even. So yeah, pizza hit, you don't completely screw up your diet. Load of high protein skyr, shout out to my Nordic friends again. Super high protein, low fat, low carb. Some queso fresco, queso's cheese, fresco, fresh, fresh cheese. And then I think that's everything. Oh God. And sardine, some Nocilla. I'm gonna have Nocilla while I'm eating these pancakes and put this on top. That's like the whole reason we went was to get toppings for the pancakes, so that's what we're gonna do. Um, we're gonna eat these now, see what flavor we're gonna go for next, and finish the vlog. Also, the price for all this, exactly €129. So, so good compared to like just going to the SuperSaw. Still got love for the SuperSaw though. But yeah, €129. In your country, wherever you're watching this from, is that cheap? Is that expensive? It's pretty similar to Ireland, maybe a little bit more expensive. Depends what shop. Depends what shop. Aldi on Aldi though.

Aldi on Aldi action.

You gotta make everything inappropriate, don't you? This is like, this is my life now. Like, I am coming up to 30 years old and this is what I do for a living. Sick. These are the 3 different flavors I'll be trying out today. Comment down below what you think they are. I don't want to ruin the surprise yet because we're only going to release one, you know, next. So my favorite one we're going to release next, other ones could be in the future, we'll see. So right now, today, yeah, scientist, the scientist, this is me in the lab. Okay, so right, so these are the vegan ones. You are doing them vegan way, I would probably just do almond milk. I'm gonna do bowl number A first, then we'll do a little taste test. Toppings, let's see.

Oh, we've banana.

We got some mihilde sahar. I have no idea what that is, but there's a, there's a B on it, so I presume that's honey. And then where's the No Chill? Oh, here it is. Right, we got some of this as well. So I'm gonna keep it simple, maybe like some banana as well. All right, so I'm gonna chop banana, put, um, right, let's make pancakes. All right, Linda, you need to come around here and advise. Well, Linda was there for the first ever tasting of pancakes. Linda actually taught him the name. I think we taught him the name. We'll tell that story another day. January 2021, Experiment A. I'm gonna try with no toppings. Texture's bang on. I can't believe they're vegan. Good, really good. Did you try some of that? Mmm, so good, right? Unreal. I have a feeling this will be my favorite. I'm gonna try this. All right, very good. I can't believe that's vegan. It's all right. Now time for option B. All right, so this is the one I thought I'd like least, but actually smells pretty good and I like the butter.

And then this is the third, which is—

I think you can guess that flavor. I really like that. I know you don't like this flavor of thing, but you're gonna just have to try it. I know, right? Oh my God. Very like— wow, it definitely tastes the least vegany.

Yeah, I'm intrigued to taste the, uh, choco here.

No way to give it away, Linda. Yeah, me too. The one I thought was going to be my favorite was actually my least favorite. I prefer these two. Same. I know, which is— yeah, this is what we get up to in our evenings. But look, the excitement needs to end here. I've got a lot of thinking to do. My mind is blown. I got decisions to make. So see you in the next video. Keep it real. I'm out of here.
