00:12I'm Givion and today I'm going to show you what a day of training looks like with me.
00:19I've always been an athlete. I actually wrestled for about five years in my youth. I'm always
00:26working out, so it's consistent to stay ready for tour and to just keep my body in shape.
00:31Consistency to me is at least three days a week. Just get in there and do something. You don't have
00:36to go in there and work out for two hours. I don't have time for that. I'm not doing that.
00:40Current
00:40training goals, I think really just add on muscle. I don't have like a specific weight goal or anything
00:46like that. I'll just get in and do the work and then see the results later. Today you caught me
00:51on an upper body day. Let's get into the workout. The first exercise I like to start with is just
01:01standard pull-ups because if I try to do pull-ups when my arms are dead we wouldn't have anything
01:05to
01:05record because I wouldn't be able to do it. I just do three sets of five to eight. Pull-ups
01:09are great
01:10for shoulders and back. I love doing workouts where it hits two muscle groups at the same time
01:14so I can get up out of here. The good thing to say would be I eat all my fruits,
01:19vegetables,
01:20or watch my calories. I really don't do what I'm supposed to do but I balance it out. Sometimes
01:25I'll eat junk or have a cheat day but then other days I'll lock in a meal prep with just
01:29a simple
01:30protein grain. Being on tour is difficult to maintain a consistent diet just due to the fact
01:36that we're always in motion and the logistics of it. So I just try to make sure I eat twice
01:40a day.
01:41Just simple. I love chicken and rice. That's how I incorporate the diet but I'm still working on
01:45that if I'm being honest. The next move I like to do are lat pull-downs. It really builds your
01:52lats
01:52really nice and it allows me to be able to pull myself up for those pull-ups. For this I
01:57do three
01:57sets of 12. The day of the show I don't want to go anything too heavy or intense because I
02:02have an
02:0380-minute set. I kind of more so use it to keep my body in motion and to wake up
02:07everything but the
02:08cardio that I do simple just treadmill or if I like the area I'll just run around the block. Sometimes
02:14I'll track
02:14it just to see what the distance is but sometimes I'll just run. These are seated rows. So the way
02:20I balance getting a good workout in and spending a lot of time in the studio is making sure I
02:25put
02:26enough space in between the two. Like I like to start my day with the workout and then have a
02:30nice
02:30meal. It's super important to the process because it actually wakes me up and energizes me so that I
02:36can go into the studio full focus. I don't know what else I would do to wake up and I'm
02:40not taking no cold
02:41shower. The last move I like to finish with is a classic bicep curl. My process with working out
02:47is to just try to hit every muscle group over the week. I just try to stay balanced. You don't
02:53want
02:53to have a large upper body and then just you standing on twigs. My least favorite day is legs
02:58because it hurts and it burns and then I got to use them for the rest of the day. Favorite
03:02is upper body.
03:03Carry groceries a little bit better. That was my workout and if you're looking for some motivation,
03:08the best thing I have to say is just be consistent even if it's just a little bit at a
03:12time. And if
03:13you need some music to listen to while you lock into the gym, my new album Beloved is just for
03:19you.
