Chest Day & Tacos | 3 PLATE BENCH

What's going on, guys? Welcome to today's video. It's chest day, so that warrants a vlog in itself. So before we get into the video, this video is sponsored by Stereo, which is an amazing new app that I'm going to tell you about later on in the video. But now, a bit of a life update. So gyms have fully opened up in Marbella, which I'm so happy about, so I can finally bring you guys some training footage once again. I checked my Instagram and I was like I haven't uploaded a swipe workout in 3 weeks. Who am I anymore? So I'm delighted by that. So we're going to go across to M13 now. Again, that's the kind of indoor gym. It's a little bit more bodybuilding style, and I really, really like it. Fuel Cakes has also sold out, so the next batch should be ready in, I want to say, first, second week of March. As soon as possible, really. But now, in the meantime, I can concentrate a little bit more on YouTube and stop posting 100 stories per day on my Instagram of pancakes. I've got like one box left, so I'm gonna make like maybe a mini tiny fuel cake per day just to ration the portions, just to get my fix of pancakes in until the next shipment arrives. But that's it, look, let's get into the vlog. I wanna go hit the gym. Let's go take some pre-workout and get a mad chest pump. Give the video a thumbs up, hit that subscribe button if you haven't already. It helps the channel a lot. Let's go lift some weights. All right, so starting off with 15 minutes of cardio on the StairMaster, and today's a good old chest day. I'm throwing some arms there as well. The gym is nice and empty as well, so looking forward to recording today. But first thing we're going to start off on, some good old bench press. So I'm very excited for that. The cut was going well until last Sunday. It was Valentine's Day. Me and Linda, we went out for like a really nice brunch. Had a couple of drinks. When I have a few drinks, it throws me off so much. It messes up my sleep. I'm less kind of adherent to my diet. And before that, it was like 5 weeks since I drank. So things are going well, I'm back on the straight and narrow now. I was gonna be real with you guys though. So yeah, slow start to the week with diet and training, so feeling a little bit soft today. I was like, almost didn't want to vlog. I was like I look kind of shitty today, but look, who cares? We'll just get it done. We'll make do, right? That's just a little bit longer on this, and then that bench press, when it's free, it's getting smashed up. Alright guys, so session done. My calories have been a little bit higher this week, as I said, but so I'm not gonna look as lean as I was maybe last week or the week before, but I'm definitely feeling stronger. So let's just chalk it down as a refeed. So that was a really good session. I felt a really good pump. I'm feeling strong at the moment. So yeah, I'm delighted just to be out here training away. Me and Joe D actually had a conversation last night. We were talking about how at the moment it's like there's so little to do. There's no events, there's no expos, you know, it's tough to be creative. But it's like I'm just enjoying seeing people live their life, whatever that may be. Joe did like a full day in his life in lockdown. This is You know what I'm doing? I'm pretty much just trying to get in my best shape possible, hitting the gym because I'm so grateful to have open gyms here, and just eating and training. So that's it. But I guess that's what this channel is about at the end of the day. So yeah, I hope you're enjoying the video, and I apologize, I apologize if the content isn't like blowing your mind. All right, great gym session. Just gonna hop in the whip, drive home. That was, that was a shy joke like last week, but there is an update on the car. I finally found a way to get it shipped over, so it should be here in about a week. I'm also getting it like nicely like cleaned and serviced and everything, so I'm really excited to have that over here. Then we can get some road trips going on when the place opens up even more. It's pretty good news from the Spanish government, they're saying like this summer things looking pretty good, their vaccine rollout's going well, Marbella is fully open again, the cases are really low. So there's a bit of good news for you guys because there's a lot of doom and gloom in the UK and Ireland as well, especially Ireland actually. So anyways, I'm gonna walk home now, gonna get my first meal of the day in. Honestly, I love training fasted so much, god, and then working out, 'cause you're just so excited for your post-workout meal. But yeah, that's a little update on the car situation. I'm done, we're gonna go in and make some food now, but like I said at the start of the video, those seagulls are messing up my sponsorship. So like what I said at the beginning, this video is sponsored by Stereo, and that is an app that allows you to do live shows with other people, whoever you want, all from your phone. Now, I've already done 2 with Joey D that I'll give you a snippet of here.

And then like, you will get to a point where like one day you're stood in the club and you're like, maybe I should do something fucking meaningful now. Like, you will hit that point, man. And then when you do, you'll know why. Like, but what you said, the second part about like, are they mutually exclusive? Probably not, not nowadays. Nowadays you can get good at shit and work at shit on a laptop. All you need is a laptop and internet connection, me. Like, I always say this, like, you can literally— I would pay people for a lot of shit, right? I would pay people for anything that makes my life easier, right?

So, and I have also done one with Linda, my girlfriend, as well. And I do have an upcoming show which I'll link down in the description box. It's a lot of fun. It's live as well, which kind of makes it a bit more exciting. And you guys can— people who are watching it can send in voice notes So it's great for like Q&As and just being really interactive. And so I think me and Joe, we ended up on it for about an hour and a half the other night. So yeah, it's awesome, man. I'm excited for this partnership. I think it goes perfectly with myself as I can kind of talk for days. So I like how simple this is. All you literally need is a phone and that's it. So again, I'm going to link everything in the description box. And thank you so much, Stereo, for this partnership. Again, you know, I only work with brands and products that I like and use myself. This is a really cool app and it's also completely free. So anyways, let's get on with the vlog and again, shout out to Stereo. Right, I am absolutely delighted this arrived. I was having just a bit of trouble getting packages to this place, like compared to London, because London is just like the hub of the world post. We ordered something on Amazon once at like 10 PM, it was there the next morning. But either way, it's starting to pick up now a little bit. And I think I know what this is. Oh, now I wish this arrived before the gym, but either way I'm grateful. The best, in my opinion, flavor Ghost has ever, ever done: chocolate chip cookie. So I'm buzzing for that. We got a dad cap, another one. I don't know, I see caps don't suit me. I'll wear it to rep the set. All right, okay, let's go through quickly what we got. We got mini shaker, big transparent shaker, the hats, and then the real stuff. We got some Ghost Legend lemon lime, we got Ali Best Flavor Club passion fruit greens, Icho MF greens, looking forward to trying that, and big congrats and Ali for joining the collab club. So I can't wait to try that out. We got blue raspberry aminos. Oh my God, we got another collab! We got Mr. Maxx Tuning. I've actually never like— I've just tried this when I'm staying with Maxx. I've never actually owned a tub of this because it's hard to get. I think we've got the US ingredients too. We got Pump, one of my favorite products. We got Size Lime, which is the creatine product. I take this year round, 5 grams every day. And then we got some Ghost Gamer. I have— didn't even play my PS4 for months. Like, I played it in March to April, peak lockdown, and Linda was never more sexually unattracted to me when she'd walk by my office and I'm just like sitting in that chair with a headset on. Like, I don't think you've ever been more turned off in your life. So probably the best that I left it at home, and my sister has it. If anyone wants it, it's PS4. I'll actually just give it away at this stage. Some, someone probably appreciate more than me. But anyway, so I'm not going to take this for war zone anymore, but I'm going to go into serious lockdown again. I'm just going to take this for the gym. So I'm absolutely delighted with that. And of course, link for everything is down below, along with discount codes. All right, so post-workout, we're gonna have one of these Arrows basmati. I know you like when I pronounce Spanish words terribly. We're gonna have some pollo. Apparently that's actually pollo, that's how you pronounce it. Tortillas de trigo. Entrepreneures, that sounds like entrepreneurs, but it's cheese. Then we got some salsa de jalapeños. I'm gonna chop up that pepper as well. Robert's gonna go for like 2 of these because he's gonna get a good few carbs in the rice, and that is gonna be a delicious meal. So let's put it together. Alright, little taste test. Mmm.

Mmm.

I'm gonna like 3 of these. Eat it this many times. So next up we have the mandatory bowl of oats. Chocolate oats, chocolate protein, and We are gonna go for 2 pieces of dark chocolate in there. That is like my treat of the day. And then we are watching the legend himself, some more plates, more Derek's. So, all right, I'm gonna eat this now and chill out for a little bit. Catch you in a bit. Look at that sunset. This is what I do now, one of my favorite times of the whole day. It's come to time when I relax and wind down a little bit. So we just did our first month in this apartment, 100% staying for the next month anyways, and hopefully, you know, for the summer. But like I said, it was like 2 videos ago, the prices in Marbella— it's a very seasonal place— does change a lot. So we'll see. Anyways, I do also have some other good options lined up here in Marbella. It's so strange, like, if you told me in 2021 you'd be living in Spain, Marbella, to start off the year, I'd be like, what? But this year I think is actually even crazier than 2020. But anyways, right, I'm going to sit down and what I'm going to do is around this time of day, this is when I begin my journaling process. Okay, so I do it in the evenings around 7 PM when the sun's setting and also in the mornings as well. The main thing I do right now and I've been doing it every day for, I'd say, I'd say over 5 years. I write down tomorrow what I want to get done and how my ideal day would go, within reason. I can't write down win the lotto, as that usually just doesn't happen. I don't even play the lotto. But so right now I'm going to write down in order of preference what exactly I want to get done. When it comes to the next day, if you don't take everything off that list, like say you get like the you've got the first 4 things done, you've got like 8 things written down, the next 4 just go on to the next day. So you don't beat yourself up if you don't get your whole to-do list done, but it kind of goes in order of preference, and that's how I do things, that's how I map out my week. So I'm gonna get my little Alfley pen, my little journal that I got out here, and write out how I want tomorrow to go. I like to finish off my day like a sweet snack. So we're gonna have some of Mercadona's— Mercadona's— uh, protein milk. And then we're gonna have one of these little ice creams that are 150 calories. These are called Nata, all Nata, baby. It's all right, we're gonna finish off these. We're watching a series called Blacklist, uh, we're on like the second last episode now. It is so good. Um, I put on my story Everyone was just like, that is the best series ever, we're loving it so far. So thank you. And also, just a reminder, the link for me and Linda's Stereo Conversation, that is in the description box. Go check it out and listen to some relationship advice Q&As with me and Linda. So see you guys over there. Thanks for watching. Keep it real. Peace.
