In this vlog, creator Rob Lipsett documents a day in Los Angeles with his companion Sarah. He starts with a pre‑workout supplement, makes French toast, and heads to the modest gym in his apartment complex before planning to hit Gold’s Gym and Barbell Brigade. He explains his travel‑friendly fitness philosophy—focusing on full‑body/upper‑body compound movements to maintain his physique while on the road. After the workout he showers, swims, and begins a walk down Hollywood Boulevard, highlighting the city’s vibrant street scene. The vlog promotes the upcoming YouTubers Retreat organized by Jovan Alvin, describing it as a pool‑party‑style weekend with a free bar and top fitness influencers. Throughout the day he shops for swimwear and casual shorts, orders his regular iced venti Americano with sugar‑free vanilla at Starbucks, prepares a turkey salad with Trader Joe’s ingredients, and later dines at The Grove, Farmer’s Market, and the Cheesecake Factory, where he selects items from the “Skinnylicious” menu. He mentions collaborations with Gold’s Gym, Christian, Javon, and the AlphaD crew, and teases future content. The video ends with a call‑to‑action for likes, subscriptions, and a promise of more footage from the retreat and potential LA living.

Trying out this shit for pre-workout today. Ultra Black. Alright, good morning everyone. So I woke up today, made some French toast, some chicken, kind of tastes like chicken waffles. The plan for today is, we actually don't know, but we are in LA, so we're bound to get up to something fun. We're just going to get our morning workout in the gym here, the gym that's in our apartment complex. I don't think I've actually showed you guys it yet, but it's It's pretty decent, like, you know, it doesn't have like a squat rack or power cage or anything, but like you can definitely get a workout in. But I will be hitting Gold's Gym up while I'm here and maybe Barbell Brigade too. So anyways, let's get this vlog started. Alright, so workout done. As you all know, when I travel, I just hit like full body or upper body. I just stick to compounds to get the most bang for my buck. And you know, I focus on maintaining my physique as much as possible because when you're moving around, you know, you don't have your diet 100%, you don't have like your gym, the best equipment possible, like, you know, odds are you're not really gonna make much progress. But I'm more kind of like concerned right now about just kind of like enjoying life. Like, you know, I've proved my point. I've gotten a decent physique, I've won some men's competitions, so now I'm just, you know, living my life. So gonna get a shower now, maybe jump in the pool, get a bite to eat, go on with the day. It's beautiful. So coming from the gym and this one is going 90. To be fair, she puts in the work. She's, she's uploading a YouTube video and getting her workout in during that. That's dedication. Proud of you, girl. I'm gonna call this the YouTube workout because she has to keep going until her YouTube video is uploaded, rendered, and processed. How long you got? 6 minutes? Hopefully 5 by now. I am addicted to beef jerky. This has been a, you know, a good way that I've been getting my protein in. Basically every day me and Sarah, we try to go on like at least 1 hour's walk, which there's no better place to do that than LA. Like, we're walking down Hollywood Boulevard right now and there's just like so much to look at. Like, people watching here is immense. And like, then we're gonna walk down La Brea or something. But basically for the next couple of days, you know, the reason we're here is for this YouTubers Retreat. You can get tickets on theyoutubersretreat.com. So the event Jovan Alvin is organizing, and it's like a pool party, you know, a free bar everything for the whole weekend, and you're gonna have like some of the biggest names in fitness there. So we're trying to get in as much cardio as possible, you know, keep the diet, you know, as good as we can. We are getting our daily walk in, and we're also on our way to look for a bikini for Sarah and some fresh swim shorts for me, and then probably some kind of like casual wear too. Also, vlogging on the street here, like, there's no better place to do it. Like, LA is full of crazy people. Like, there's literally people walking down the street smoking something that ain't tobacco taco shouting obscenities. So someone holding a camera recording themselves is like the least weird thing that you'll see in LA. Oh, thank you so much. Our usual order when we go to Starbucks is an iced venti Americano with some sugar-free vanilla syrup. In it. Absolutely love it. Really low in calories. That is my choice of coffee. A splash of half and half milk as well. Yeah, true, just to kind of give it a bit of color. Wow, I look really scruffy, but whatever. So I'm here in American Apparel, and I think I've found my shorts. They're like a really good fit, and I like this color. I don't think it's pink, it's salmon. But either way, I'm gonna wear these to the pool party. And I just text Christian there, and I was like, bro, what are you wearing, you know, for the weekend? And he's like, he doesn't know. So the two of us are gonna go shopping next week because he's gonna be in LA, so I'm gonna wait for him because it'll probably be— he is nice style, so it'd probably be easier to pick out something decent for it. So I'm gonna pay for these now and then I'll catch up with you in a bit. 54.60? I'm sorry, they're on sale. 12.09. Oh, awesome. There you go. Excellent, have a great day. All right, next up I'm just gonna make myself a quick little turkey salad because I think this is about to go out of date. So might as well put it to use. And I picked these up in Trader Joe's. Alright, so we're just about to walk into this place called The Grove. It is like really good for shopping and stuff. We're also walking through this other place called the Farmer's Market. And I remember I went here with my sister like 2 years ago when I was on a J-1 and the food, it's like all barbecue and oh my god, it's amazing. So I might have a little look-see at that. Probably gonna grab dinner somewhere, have a little look around and, uh, Let's have a nice leisurely stroll. This is where you get like proper cultural food, like proper Mexican food, proper Brazilian barbecue. And I am a food lover, like I'm a foodie. I appreciate good tasting food. I think anyone who's dieted down to single-digit body fat appreciates food. Currently bikini shopping with Sarah, just watching her try on bikini after bikini. I suppose I can't really complain, can I? We finally got seated in the Cheesecake Factory, and they must know we've got this massive pool party in a couple of days because they've got a Skinnylicious menu with all the calories listed. We're gonna— as much as it pains us, we're gonna order from that menu. But when this pool party's over, we're coming back, we're ordering a big-ass cheesecake. Anyways, let's see what we're gonna get. All right, so all hope is not lost. They've got a Skinnylicious hamburger under 590 calories, grilled turkey burger, chicken salad sandwich. This is not bad at all. Tacos, chicken pasta. All right, this looks awesome. I went for the steak medallions with mashed potatoes, a side veg salad as well, and then Sarah got the turkey burger, which looks absolutely amazing as well. And salad. Yeah, and a salad too. Our waitress was like, "Hey, that's a nice Canon. Are you guys vloggers?" And we're like, "Yeah." And she was like, "Oh, me too." It's a small world. Alright people, so wrapping up today's video here. This was just a basic day on what I'm up to in LA, but kind of the main things I will be doing is I've got a very big collab that you guys are gonna love. I'm Monday in Gold's Gym. And as I said earlier, I'll probably be meeting up with like Christian, Javon, the whole AlphaD crew as well. And then of course the main focus of the whole trip is the YouTubers Retreat on the 5th and 6th in August. I cannot wait for that. That's gonna be some cool footage. And I'm also just like scoping out the place because, you know, LA is somewhere that I would love to live in for a while. Anyways, I'll talk about that another time. So anyways, Gonna wrap things up here. Leave the video a thumbs up, subscribe if you haven't already. Thank you so much for watching. Keep it real, I'm outta here. More videos to come. Peace.
