(food sizzling)
- What's up, guys?
It's another beautiful day in Miami.
I had a great weekend: I took my son
to the Frost Museum to do some Halloween activities
and then we went to GameWorks and had a blast.
But today is Monday, I gotta get back into routine.
So, the first thing I have to do is get my workout in.
I was telling the guys that for the next couple weeks
until the LA Vid Expo, we want to get
like crazy strong, crazy shredded.
So, I'm putting these guys through a strength camp.
I'm gonna be training these guys like crazy,
every single day, at least Monday through Friday
to get them prepared for the expo.
And I'm gonna be taking you guys along for the ride.
So, it's about 8am right now,
I'm about to get the day started.
Normally, some people would be eating breakfast
around this time, but I like to fast.
I mean, it feels more comfortable for me
and while I'm fasting, I like to get a workout in
in the middle of that time
and then, I'll probably start eating for the first time;
lunch, around 2pm.
Of course, when it comes to nutrition,
it's a personal thing for each and every person.
You know, depending on what type of health situation
you're already in, if you're super healthy,
if you're not healthy, if you're lactose intolerant,
if you have diabetes, and so forth,
certain things are okay for you
as certain things are maybe not okay
or not preferably good for others.
So, I'm just gonna show you guys my personal routine
and how I do it, how I eat every single day.
As soon as I finish this workout,
I'm gonna try and get back to the office
and cook up a meal to show you guys
one of my favorite dishes that I like to make
when it comes to making those gains, baby.
So, stay tuned.
It is freezing right now. What the hell?
This is Miami, how is this happening?
So, I'm pretty sure Osvaldo is going to be
the first one through that door; he's smart.
So, we gotta do something
a little more advanced for Osvaldo.
Bro, you know what would be hilarious?
If we did the box trick.
We'll set this one up first.
(box dropping)
(upbeat music)
(sounds drowned out by music)
(box drops)
(laughter)
- Enough (spring sound effect)
- I don't need to get down from here.
(fiddling with the box)
(laughter)
(screaming)
(mumbles) So, what do you guys wanna train today?
Alright, this is what we're gonna do:
we're gonna do technique for 20 minutes,
we're gonna do planch,
we're gonna do one-arms
and today, our workout is gonna be a push day,
so we're gonna be doing triceps and chest.
Let's go do technique and then we'll work (mumbles).
(upbeat music)
To warm up, we're gonna start with a couple challenges.
You guys, try this! You can do it!
Yeah, this is hard.
- (mumbles)
(laughter)
(guys cheering)
- Oh, professional!
Start right here.
Who can jump the longest?
- [Sound Effect] You win.
You lose.
- [Chris] There you go.
- [Camera Man] Go!
(laughter)
(running)
- Got the new little vlog stick.
I'm officially a vlogger; it's official.
- [Camera Man] Perfect! (guys cheering)
(clapping)
- Alright, so I just finished writing the workout.
We're gonna start out warming up
with two techniques: one-arm, planch.
These two kind of compliment each other,
especially 'cause one fatigues the other one
and at the level that we're training at right now,
we want to be able to build our endurance.
So, this is why we're gonna be training two techniques
that are actually gonna challenge each other.
When you're training one-arm,
you're using a lot of rear delt
and you need a lot of that rear delt
to do planch at the same time.
So, this is gonna challenge them both
to be able to keep up at the same time.
So, training in this way is going to optimize our skill.
So, we're first gonna start off
with those two techniques,
probably drill them for like 15 minutes
and then we're gonna start out workout.
Our workout for the day is mainly
a chest and tricep workout,
pushing base, but it's gonna have a lot of technique
embedded into this routine.
So, we're gonna start off with a ring-drip drop set,
then we're gonna move into some handstand pushups,
then we're gonna go into a 90-degree hold.
From there, we're gonna max out our diamond and Y pushups
and then, we're gonna end with some planch pushups,
whatever progression we feel like
we can optimize our strength with at that point.
So, we're gonna do three rounds of that workout
and that's a wrap.
(upbeat music)
This guy is doing the worm behind me.
Hey, if you guys are trying this at home,
one of the best ways to start off
is don't try to actually start off
by putting all your weight on one arm.
This first try, start off by actually doing the handstand
like that, have a firm grip, have a firm grip
and try to hold just a normal handstand.
Once you get used to that,
then you can start putting all your weight
onto that one side, leaning all your weight
to that one delt.
I still haven't gotten a haircut.
Definitely next vlog, Imma be fresh. Real fresh.
(upbeat music)
Let's start with some ring-dips drop set,
then we'll go into handstand pushups,
90-degree holds, diamond/Y, maxing out those pushups,
and finish with some planch pushups.
(upbeat music)
(guys laughing and cheering)
(upbeat music)
(shouting)
(upbeat music)
Last one, let's make it count!
(upbeat music)
That's the end of the routine,
but I still need to show you guys
one of the best foods to eat
right after you finish training.
Let's make those gains!
Alright guys, so we're gonna go and get
all the things that we need to make this dish first.
Italian dressing, lean ground turkey breast,
fresh tilapia for all you people that don't eat meat,
broccoli, garlic, fresh onions,
eggs, a little secret ingredient: oyster sauce,
lastly, a little complete seasoning.
Alright guys, today, I'm gonna show you
one of my go-to meals when it comes to making those gains.
This is a typical meal that I would make
right after working out.
You can make this meal in about under 20 minutes.
So, today, we're gonna be working with
broccoli, tilapia, and I have ground turkey breast.
I have tilapia here as an option
for the people that don't eat meat.
We also have onions, some garlic, and eggs.
And then we're gonna be working
with complete seasoning, a little bit of oyster sauce,
and some italian dressing.
So, the first thing that we need
to do is light up the stove.
So, you can be using vegetable oil, canola oil,
whatever it is that you guys use.
Put a little bit and light up the stove.
So, I'm gonna put it to about
a little bit less than halfway.
In the meantime, we're gonna come over here
and start prepping everything.
So, the first thing that we wanna do
is start cutting up the onions.
The key ingredient when it comes to muscle gains is protein.
You need to be making sure
that you're having the proper protein intake,
you're having enough protein intake.
Protein is what builds your muscles.
So, this right here is gonna be slammed with protein.
Each egg has 7 grams of protein;
every filet of tilapia has 23 grams of protein, I think;
each serving of ground turkey breast has about 27 grams.
We just cut up our onion.
Let's put that in while we let these go.
(sizzling)
Alright, so while that's simmering, we're gonna let that sit
and we're gonna start continuing to cut up broccoli.
Don't forget about your onions cooking back there,
you don't want to burn them.
So, keep checking back to the pot.
Now, we gotta work quickly.
But of course, typically, if someone only eats fish,
you don't want to be mixing meat with fish.
That would be a horrible thing to do.
But people that are gonna be eating fish in this case
is gonna be us, so we don't mind
mixing the meat with the fish.
So, this is the type of mix that I like to do:
I'll put some Italian dressing
and then, I'll put a little bit of complete seasoning.
Now this. Move it around a bit.
And we'll let that sit for a bit and marinate.
Now, let's bring over our meat.
(sizzling)
It's starting to develop texture;
as you can see, this is starting to cook.
And these onions start getting a little thick glaze.
That's when I'll start to add in the broccoli.
So, these look the broccoli is ready.
I'll put in a little bit of oyster sauce.
My grandma actually had a Chinese restaurant in Trinidad
a long time ago; they used a lot of oyster sauce.
Ah, I'm not good at flipping.
- [Camera Man] Wait, my tilapia.
- Now is when I'll add in the broccoli.
Let it get some of that tilapia.
And this, this feels just about right.
So, if you're looking for a meal
to get in shape, to get lean,
to build muscle and not to develop so many extra calories,
then you'll wanna be eating like this.
When you're cooking like this,
you're cooking the necessities
for what you need for your body to grow,
not just what you feel that you're craving.
So, this is the first dish that's done.
There we go, that one came out even faster
than I thought; 15 minutes.
We're gonna slam-pat this little meal
right here for extra protein.
Now, as you can see, it's starting to get brown
and it's getting this glaze color.
When it starts to get like that,
that literally means deliciousness.
Put in the whole entire egg.
But normally, I always just use egg-whites.
Look at how nutritious and healthy this dish is.
This is gonna be amazing right here.
And it's ready. Let's drop that down.
So, there you have it.
Two of my go-to dishes when it comes to making those gains.
We have tilapia and broccoli with garlic and onions,
a perfect combination of protein
and the necessary complex carbs.
And over here, we have ground turkey breast,
one of the best protein choices
when it comes for meat and eggs
with broccoli, onions, and garlic.
There you have it guys,
those are my two dishes to make gains.
This is something that I typically eat
Monday through Friday.
I'll show you a couple more dishes
with other vlogs to come.
Alright guys, so that's gonna be it for this week's vlog.
Tune in next Thursday at 2pm, USA Eastern Time
to catch the next one while continuing my training
and I'm gonna continue with my nutrition.
I'll also try to throw in a studio session with you guys
and show you guys how I make some of my music.
If you guys have any other suggestions
of what you'd like to see in this vlog,
I'm really just having so much fun with it.
So, if you guys have anything cool that you'd like to see,

And if it's really cool, I'll get around to it
