Rob & Maxx Doing Things

Yo, what's happening people? So I'm just back in JFK Airport. It's that time of year again, it is Summer Shredding. I always base my America trip around this. Last year I did LA before, this year I'm doing LA afterwards. So the itinerary that we got planned is just absolutely insane. We've got Summer Shredding this weekend, then LA, Joshua Tree, Palm Springs, New York. It's going to be insane. So I am just about to eat this massive salad and a Dr Pepper that I picked up in JFK, and and then I'm gonna go straight to Houston. We're gonna meet Max Tuning, we're gonna get settled in. It's gonna be about 6 PM there. I'm gonna be jet lagged, but it's okay, we're gonna get over it. This is the start to my America trip, so I'm just so glad to be documenting this. I'm gonna look back on this in years to come, and yeah, I'm in a good mood. So right, I'm gonna eat this quickly and we're gonna go. All right, so we have made it to Houston. The weather is absolutely terrible, and when I was leaving Dublin, it was the nicest weather ever. This goes to show how much I love the Alfalee crew. I actually just met a few people that are attending the event there, So it's like, it's already getting started in the airport. So yeah, I'm really excited. But now straight into it, even though I'm so tired, running off pretty much 4 hours sleep, then had Ibiza the week before, and then just had a 14-hour flight there. Running off very low energy, but I gotta go to a birthday dinner now. Max Schuning just texted me, said it's across the road from where he lives. So I'm gonna go straight there. Maybe I'll get like changed in the taxi or something. I don't know. But either way, like, you know, I'm still just buzzing to see everyone. It was me back in America. There's just something about it. So, right, let's go see what everyone's up to. Guys, we made it a little bit early. I'm about to see Dude for the first time. Oh my God, I can hear Dude. I'm more excited to see this guy. Oh my God.

Rob Lipsett type of guy to ring the doorbell when the garage is open. No way, bro.

What's up, bro? Oh my God. This is insane. I'm so proud of you. Let me get your back, man. Ah, man. Look at this. Wow, it's got wheels, you know.

We live upstairs, dude. That's how they do it in Ireland.

Max just invented a new exercise. It's called the overhead bag lunge stair press. Oh man, I can't believe this. Sick af. No, it's the first time here, first time seeing dude. Oh my God, sick, bro. See, I'm in— I'm at that stage where I'm like, kind of want to be shredded for summer, kind of want to drink whiskey margaritas and donuts. I bought them for a video today, but I only ate one. Well, the right man is here.

We're going to dinner in like 10 minutes.

All right, all right, let's go. What's cracking, bro? Congrats, congrats, man. I watched your video on the plane over. Thanks, man. I was like, well, I'm gonna delete my channel.

I finally slept like 45 minutes.

How you feeling after the show?

Feeling gonna be rejuvenated to come next week.

This is an exclusive interview. This is probably the first time you've been on camera since, like, it's crazy, but it's gonna be a good weekend. I just arrived there, met dude, met Christian, met the gang. I'm backing parents, and we're gonna go get some Mexican food. It's a good time to be alive, people. Here we go. Oh wow, look at that. All right, so this is the reception that I wanted when I arrived in Texas. This food looks amazing. We are celebrating tonight just before a big weekend. Oh my God, I'm gonna have to go in. But yeah, so I'm gonna finish up this vlog here because then tomorrow's gonna be a big day. I'm wrecked.

Hey, smash the thumbs up button.

Smash the thumbs up button for the Tune Dog, and I'm gonna sign out here. Good job, dude. All right, I'm out here talking waffle. I just knew my diet was going to go to shit this weekend because I'm hanging out with a load of people who've just finished a bodybuilding show, so there's going to be food everywhere. But you know what? Bring it on. It's the summer. I did my photo shoot and we're all good. Wow, the Texas heat is going. What are we doing now, bro?

Uh, getting some jellies.

It's fro-yo. Just gonna have a small one. Travel days are the worst days for eating. Like, oh my God. Oh, a low fat.

I'm gonna need to sample all Yo guys, welcome to today's video.

It's my first full proper day in Texas. I just slept for 8 hours and I feel like a new man, but feel like an even newer man. I need a fresh fade. You know how we do it on this channel, we get a fresh fade every like 3 days.

Your hair right now looks like shite.

Yeah, you, you heard him, you heard him. Okay, so we're going to this place, House of Blades. I think I've been here last year and we're gonna get freshened up. Max is going off to the bank. To just grind harder and ball out and do grown-up things. Why don't you give them a little sneak preview or tell them what you're going for? Not exactly, but tell them about the project.

Oh, the secret project?

Yeah, yeah, just tell them what it's called.

I can't, they can't know the name of it.

No, no, no.

Oh yeah, Project XX.

Project XX.

Double X, not triple X for porn, but double X for, you know, max.

We're one X away from being you porn, pretty much.

Imagine it's a product that you didn't know that you loved until you get it and you're like, I need more.

Yeah, there you go. So I'm getting my hair cut, Max is going to the bank. It's arms, but it's Walden's arms. So yeah, I'm gonna haircut, Max go to the bank. Both are equally as important. And then we're gonna have a good day. We're gonna get a training session in, just me, Christian, Max. Maybe not an athlete because it's going to be so busy, but I need that to complete freshness. Um, because again, I've been traveling the last 24 hours pretty much. I need to move, I need to lift, I need to put muscles to work. Either way, give the video a thumbs up for the crew getting back together and for the weekend that's in it. So all right, let's get into the vlog. We in Texas! Max has gone to do his thing. We are going into House of Blades, booked for 10 PM. Excited to get cleaned up. Hey man, how's it going? What's up? Well, what's cracking? I got a booking for 10. Yeah, um, sweet, awesome, man. Yeah, yeah, I follow you on Instagram. Oh, thanks, man. Yeah, I'm in town for some shredding. Yeah, yeah, awesome. What's going on, bro? Hey, good to meet you. Hey, so Blades recommend. And one of the guys cutting hair in there is actually competing this weekend, so we had a good chat. And yeah, I feel so much fresher now. That's like the first thing I do after a long-haul flight, be it Australia, America— go get a haircut, go hit the gym, and obviously try sleep as much as possible. Max should be back any minute now, so I think we're gonna head back to the house, get ready, and go hit a gym session.

Your Uber has arrived, sir.

Honestly, we didn't plan that, but that was very well executed. How was the bank?

Good, you know, business done for the day.

Business is booming. Look how fresh I am now.

Honestly, you look way better than I do.

Thank you, man. It's cool that you're able to— it's cool that you're able to admit that.

Sit. He's just so excited.

Hey, buddy.

Hey, man. Hey, buddy.

Yes, let's go potty. Come on, let's go take a leak.

All right, you go take a leak, I go take a leak, and then we go get ready. All righty. I was talking to dude. So guys, this is Max's fridge, pretty much made up of beer and energy drinks and calorie-free drinks, some leftover meals, a protein bar, Granny Smith apples. This is truly the Bachelor life. Oh, mustard as well. Yeah, so just how you look like Max Tuning, just pretty much make your diet like this. So here we go, we're in the office. We got dude with us. So, oh my God, it is so hot today. We're gonna go in, chill for a little bit, do a little bit of admin, then just lift whenever everyone else is. So everyone's a little bit scattered right now. I appreciate Christian He's still back at the house. Bro, I haven't seen your office yet.

Welcome to the HQ. This is the Ever Forward headquarters. Ever Forward HQ. We got my desk right here. We got Miss Mona who helps me over there. We have a front room which we attempted to make into a lobby. Didn't really work out.

Hey, no way! What the hell, bro? So good to see you. So good. I was not expecting to see you today. What's cracking? Good. I'm glad I had the camera on. Man, I'm with the boy Mark Finn here. So good to see you again. You just arrived? Uh, arrived in last night, so got some good sleep. Uh, went and got the haircut this morning, and now I'm ready to lift, have some good times. And yeah, it's going to be fun, man. So good to see you. Yeah, are you going to lift with all of us today? Um, yeah, probably around like 3 or something. Yeah, yeah, about that. Yeah, sweet. Awesome, man. Everyone's in town. I'm buzzing for this. So here we got Ever Forward HQ.

This is the HQ, man. This is where you store all the inventory. We're quickly outgrowing, which is great. Over there is kind of like where we work on like cars and whatnot. This is like overflow for like Alpha Elite, so whatever they can't fit stuff over there, they bring it over here and they kind of go back and forth.

Deadlift bar, essential to have in the office.

You want to get a quick sesh, you know, maybe you have a business meeting, come out here on the, on the couch.

You need to just get some stress out. And then pumped up kicks. Yeah, a lot of hype shoes back here, you know, Yeezy That's a lot of Yeezys. Goddamn, what's in these?

Some ugly looking shoes.

How's Joe's company? Doing well, man.

Nice shoes.

How to create a successful company? You make products that people want, and then when they get your products, they're like, these are good products. It's easy. It's like, how's Joe's thing coming? It's like, people want shoes, they want it delivered fast, they want a good deal, and they want availability. Joe's got you. It's like, EF, you want some good clothes? We got you. Create shit products, you have a shit company.

Company.

Not that hard, people. Yeah, have a good dog house as well.

Yeah, that'll be $500. That'll be a course right there.

Link in the bio.

Let's do it!

Take a picture?

Yeah, absolutely.

There we are. Always, always.

Awesome.

Thanks so much.

Appreciate it.

What a guy. What a guy.

Alright, let's go, man. Come on. Easy. Come on. Push, push, push. Come on. Up, up, up.

Last one, last one.

Push, push, push, push.

What's up, buddy? Rob, the mic wasn't on. Oh, I need to get you one more time. Oh man, I got motivation talks for days. I just pull him out the bag, man. It's no big deal. One piece of advice.

What do you got?

Absolutely right, okay? We are so caught up, man, we're chasing other people's dreams, right? Because of the way we live, you know, social media, always being surrounded by people that we look at what everyone else is doing and you get stirred away easily. So you look at what someone else's dreams are and then Maybe I want that. You gotta stay true to yourself. Remember what makes you happy, what makes you fulfilled, what makes you wake up every fucking day and get out of bed and get after it, okay? Stop keeping up with the Joneses. Keep with yourself. Ask yourself, what do you want? You know, what's your dreams? And that's it, man. That's it. Get after it. And then it's like there's no need for motivation. It's like when you're after your— when you're on your true course, you don't need motivation. You need motivation not to do it. So for me, traveling the world, making videos, lifting weights, getting huge biceps, okay? I don't need motivation for that, you know, because I want to do that, you know. So I—

someone would have to tie me to the fucking ground to make me not do that.

When you don't want to go to the gym, you know, you know you should. When you don't want to sit on your laptop for 2-3 hours, you know you should. So it's about rewiring your brain, programming yourself to just do that shit you don't want to do. Appreciate it, man. Thank you. Oh, that is a shredded tricep, bro. Let's go, man. 5 more. Cardio is going to consist of 10 sets of me pretending I know how to play American football. It's all right, let's do it.

All right, Rob versus Ryan.

Yeah, let's see what's going on.

I don't know what's happening, but we're going to give it our best.

Kind of just run, push him on the ground, and catch it.

Wait, am I not running? And you're trying to run, you're trying to catch it, man.

Yeah.

Oh, okay, okay.

You.

All right, okay. Like a team.

Oh, he's gone. Oh my God, come on, come on! Breaking ankles! Oh, all right, let's go, let's go!

All right, you're right. Let's go, whenever you're ready.

All right, hike, hike!

Oh, here he goes, here he goes! Get that, get that!

I was almost out of gas, I'm done.

That's enough for cardio, man. I'm out of breath. I was like, I'm either going to do Stairmaster or this. It's going to make me more tanned, so this is superior cardio. All right, so you know the drill, going into Keepers for some sushi. I had a fun day today, which like worked out. I'm going in the office, caught up with everyone, and then it's me This little trio for today, it's a workout crew. Yeah, yeah, yeah. I'm, uh, thanks so much for sorting me out. I was covered in sweat, so needed something that didn't stink. And now we're getting sushi, so what time to be alive. Keepers, never heard of this place before. Hello, what's up? That's what we need, man, some brain food right there. Oh, have you ever gotten this before?

No, no, these meals.

Yeah, this is new and interesting. We are about to dig into this beautiful sushi. That is called the Cowboy Roll.

Yeehaw!

And we're just having some chats about life, artificial intelligence, getting old, work-life balance, the future, everything. It's great. Good times, good people. I freaking love you guys. Right, let's eat, let's enjoy. All right, so fun day. Look at it, he actually does just make the vlogs better. Like, he actually does.

My channel was dying and then, you know, I brought him there.

Yeah, that's a marketing strategy, a tactical move. So, all right, we just finished up the day, went back to the office, pick up the dogs. Bro, turn down Chris Bryant, I'm trying to vlog. Oh yeah, sorry, dude. Oh, maybe turn back up. So yeah, we're just finished up today. We're going back to the house now, gonna chill for a little bit. Tonight is Friday and we're not going out because obviously we've got the Summer Shredding, the actual event competition tomorrow, and then there's a big after party in Clay or Spire. Either way, we'll be going downtown. And actually, I love downtown Houston. I've always had great nights out there. And then we've got the pool party on Sunday, and then I fly to LA on Monday. These guys go, go to the Caymans. Um, but yeah, so big weekend ahead. So today's a chill day. So today was just like lifting, you know, meeting loads people in the gym, catching up with people like Mark, Christian, Max, everyone, the whole team. And they're going for some nice sushi. So what a pleasurable day. And I got to meet this big, big hairy mofo back there as well. Alright, it's about 7 PM or something. So first of all, I drove Max's car here, okay? I was driving on the right side of the road and I swear to God, I, I felt so wild. That was like the biggest buzz of my day. But anyways, so we're here, everyone's checking in for a competition tomorrow. Say hi, guys! So these guys are all competing tomorrow. So I say they're like I'm buzzing for tomorrow and I'm not even competing. So we're just going to hang out here for a while, chill out, shoot the shit, have some fun, and then, uh, check in with you guys later. But I think we're just going to chill tonight and relax, and then tomorrow's the big day, and then pool party Sunday. My name is Brandon Ernest, I'm 32 years old. This is my first time here in the Alpha Elite Gym. I'm competing tomorrow in Summer Shredding Transformation Division. Proud but never satisfied. I'd like to show you guys a few pictures of where I've come from. Guys, check this, this is insane. This is what we're all about, okay? Boom, boom, boom! Wait for it. Oh my God, like, that is just— that's insane, man. Like, seriously, well done. Like, you should be really proud of yourself. And like, we were just talking there, you know, that's the power of putting that, that positive content out, that informative content out. And like, you know, sometimes we, we may not think about it, but it's like, you know, it, it does— when you put that content out there, it changes lives. And you know, that's really motivating for me to see. So thank you, man. Thank you so much. Seriously, you're gonna kill it tomorrow. You're gonna Killer, man. That's insane. All over the world, all the way in Texas, baby. Like, that is crazy. I'm actually from Wisconsin, so there you go. We're global, we're global. That was seriously, man, that's crazy.

Rob, you want a 1-pounder?

I'm not competing. I'm saying I deserve it. So glad my cut's over. Are these even like protein cookies or just like straight up cookies? Good. I hate when like they try to make everything protein and I'm like, dude, just eat a cookie. Yeah, just eat the cookie. Yeah, yeah, some Rooney with whey protein. Drink the cookie and have a shake after. We have the return of Holden.

So we're in the pump-up room back here, okay? We literally got Ghost Pumped. Like, that is what you need before you step on stage. One of the main attractions for today is boy Nick Wright, one of the biggest OGs in the fitness game. I'm flattered. No, dude, I followed you like literally since the basement days, like before I even started YouTube. So like, honestly, it's an honor to meet you, man, and I can't wait to see you step on stage. Appreciate it, brother. Thank you.

Yeah, bro.

So Glenn is obviously another Irish YouTuber, trains at my gym. Gotta support your own. He is in a stacked class, but I think he's gonna do great. He's on right now, but wow, that is a serious class. Let's go! Gotta support your own. All right, so we just took a little bit of a halftime from the expo or the event, went back to the house, and now me and Joe are heading back in this freaking thing. Oh my God, Porsche GT4S! Oh my God, GT3 RS, excuse me. Damn, can't wait to get in this thing. Let's go! We're taking this to the Porsche. Okay, sweet. Got my hopes up there. Comment down below So which one would you choose, Ford or Porsche? I go with this. Gotta be gentle. Oh my God, the fire extinguisher is just insane. Okay, whoa, it's cozy once you get in there.

All right.

Oh my God. All right, let's hit it, man. This makes me like remember, realize how much I love cars. I know, I only had that for like, shit, almost like 7, 8 months. I only had the truck and I actually like forgot how bad I wanted this. I got it. Oh, fuck. Oh my God, this thing is insane. Oh, fuck. All right, we're here in literally like 2 minutes. Break time. All right, so we are back in the Max Mobile with Dude, with Max of course, and we are on the way to Mama Guzman's house. And last year she cooked this like buffet, and oh my God, it was, it was legit one of the best meals I ever had in my life. Like, no joke, okay? So that's what we're on the way to now. We're very excited. What do we want? We want bread and meat.

That's bread, meat, and sauce.

Bread, meat, sauce. And we are gonna get it. So I'll show you when we get there, man. I love this weekend. There is some sick cars in this vlog, there's no doubt about that. Here we go, time for some epic, epic steak. Yo, what's going on? Oh my God, look at that bread! Look at that bread! Beautiful. Well, thank you so much for today. This is my favorite meal of the year, it's like Christmas. Guys, look at that, we got the bread. That is unbelievable. This is the MVP right here. All right, so family dinner going down in the Guzman household. Look at this, oh my God. Julian getting stuck into those potatoes, that's it. Look at this, this is such a good family feel. I love this, man, I love this. Wow, that is also one of the biggest tubs of ice cream I've ever seen. Lemon bun. The delicacy right here. Okay, this is called a what? Fat and weird cookie, bro.

Yeah, bro.

Oh my God, the inside.

It's better when you get more of the center.

This is a full-blown Texas cheat day. This is full-blown. I'm pretty much— I'm acting like I'm post-show, but I'm not. Give us some dance moves.

Give us the yeehaw.

We're back at the event for the finals. Got some sick bodybuilding acts, some even sicker music, so we're gonna enjoy The oiled up dudes, that was good. Enjoy the oiled up dudes transformation category. I'm gonna go and go get shit-faced. I'm gonna hit the gym first.

Rob walked outside, said, "Wow, look at this sun." And I was like, you know what, today's kind of like, it's like a life lesson, you know? It started out rainy, crappy, dark. You're like, I hate the day, I hate the weather, everything's bad mood. By the end of it, it's not so bad. Things turn around, the sun will be shining.

Shining.

No matter what problem you have, at the end of the day, that sun's gonna shine. Unless it burns up and kills us all. But until then, it's all gonna be okay.

Until then, give us a thumbs up and a smile, and we crack on with the day. That is some motivational stuff from Max, and that's why I love this guy. That's why I hang out with him.

I've been motivational on YouTube since like 2014, man, you know.

Thanks for giving us that motivation, man.

I really need it. Like a dark parking lot with a light light, set my camera up, you know.

There we go, man. Now, uh, is it time for drinking?

Uh, well, after we get through this mud bog.

This is more motivation. If you can cross this mud bar in our white shoes, you deserve success.

We have the same color shoes, so it's like a game. Like, whoever's shoes is dirtier at the other side loses.

We're both in it to win it. This vlog has literally just been Rob and Max doing things. If I can't think of a good title for this video, I'm literally going to title it Rob and Max doing Things. If you can think of a better title than that, then comment below.

Well, if they commented below, then the title's already established at that point.

Shut up, Max.

Hey, Ro, why don't you tell them what we're doing?

Rob is keen on getting a margarita mix. He said has to have it now.

I've got in my head I want to make homemade frozen margaritas.

What Rob wants, Rob gets.

Yep.

So we're going to Target.

Yep.

To get the frozen margarita mix and And we're gonna enjoy it, and it's gonna be the best recipe to ever hit this channel. Almost better than the protein pancakes recipe. Almost.

Pro tip, look at this: 10 calories, gonna taste the exact same versus the original, 110 calories.

No way!

At least 30 calories less.

You are joking me.

So you could get the mango, but you could just put frozen mango in there. They're healthy.

Let's do that. This is the best fitness channel I've ever gone on, personally.

That one's mango strawberry. Strawberry and pineapple. Okay, that sounds great.

That'll be good. And will we get just pure mango as well? How many are we making?

I don't know, you want to get fucked up or not?

Yeah, it's like we just need a few, but the convenience— the whole bag.

Yeah.

All right, so we got the goods. Very excited now. Nothing says bromance like making some tequilas on a Saturday, rainy Saturday night in Texas. So, all right, let's gather the troops and, uh, get on it. Looks about right.

Yeah.

And then you want me to unbox it too? Yeah, yeah, yeah, might as well.

See, a lot of people just dump it in, they just be like, oh yeah, lots. But see, I like to know if, like, you know, if I have 5 people drinking this thing, I want to know how much is in there so I can be like, we're all getting, you know, 1.5 shots each. I don't know what's important poured in, we're all getting, you know, half a shot.

You don't—

you don't know.

To be honest, I would have gone for the first approach, but Max is a bit more civilized than me. Sick.

It was fucking blended.

All right, mango margarita time in 3, 2, 1.

Oh, that's gonna be good.

Yeah, it's gonna be so legit. Forearms are good.

Oh yeah.

Yeah, that's the same consistency as Torches. Holy shit, we did a proper good job. We smashed it.

Fucking cups, you know.

Love how you curse on this channel but not your own.

I say fucking.

Oh, fucking, bro.

This is the buzz.

Sick.

So that's 6 shots into 5 drinks, so everyone gets like a shot of quarter. That's not right, but you know, a little bit more of a shot.

Cheers to an amazing weekend, guys. I'm gonna finish it with some frozen low-calorie beverages. Signing out here. Keep it real. That was unbelievable. Smash, smash. Done. See you in the next one. Keep it real. Later.

Bye-bye. Here's a bulletin from the state police, Princeton Junction. Yo, militia, threatened individuals of unidentified nature is now under complete control.

Hip-hop is not what it is today. It's the real, real. It's the—

Alicia.
