TechTranscript
00:07all right so fun one today it's all around like fitness workout adventure tech i feel like i
00:12haven't touched on some of this stuff a lot of you ask what like my personal workout routine is
00:16i typically don't share that on social because that's like my own time here's some of the stuff
00:20that i personally use and maybe i'll share some of the secrets some of the workout stuff that i do
00:25so first one i think is really important is audio so i've got a pair of headphones and
00:29a bluetooth speaker so let me explain the rationale so for headphones or earbuds specifically i am more
00:34of like in the ear i never like to work out with like over the ear headphones i find that
00:38i sweat
00:38they get too hot it's just gross these are the beats power beats pro twos they're within a year old
00:44i
00:44might be slightly biased because they're orange but these are the very first products that actually
00:49track your heart rate so if you are someone that doesn't typically wear say a smart watch i'll get
00:53to this in a second you can actually see your heart rate through your phone if you're wearing these
00:58headphones so they slip on nice and snug because they have the wingtips so no matter what type of
01:01workout you're doing whether it's hit whether you're running you're in the gym you're doing just
01:05a bit more adventurous stuff you move your head around a lot the last thing that you want to do
01:09is
01:09for your earbud to fall out and all the workouts that i've done i've never had issues with a fit
01:14and
01:14that's more than i can say for other pairs of headphones they're ipx water resistant so no matter
01:19once again how much you sweat it is hot right now in the summer you do get a bit toasty
01:24these still work
01:24perfectly fine but like i said the main feature of these is being able to track your heart rate
01:28without wearing a supplemental device like a smart watch or even like a heart rate monitor if you do
01:33that it works both with android or apple or ios i guess unlike airpods which kind of typically push
01:40you to one ecosystem or the other they sound pretty similar to i would say airpods pro twos similar
01:46profile obviously beats his own by apple but it's nice that they pair with android which you'll see the
01:50phone in a second so those are my earbuds of choice they sound really good and if you are someone
01:55that
01:55does like home workouts so check out this sony speaker it's a bit on the larger side i would
02:00never say travel around with this but if you are working out at home this is the sony ht ax7
02:06bluetooth
02:06speaker works like a traditional one it's kind of plug and play you pair your phone via bluetooth but
02:10say you are working out in your home workout area your basement wherever you have your home gym
02:14you can actually place these speakers at different areas within your place so say you're doing a bit of a
02:19workout you're running from one area i'll use my little lego dude as reference you're working out
02:23in one area you're going to station a this speaker in the corner here is still producing sound
02:28obviously the bases and then say you are locating yourself to this area for high knees whatever you
02:33happen to do this speaker also has sound so it's nice that these pucks work wirelessly you can place
02:39them anywhere in your house in your home gym setup and you can always just use this not as a
02:45gym
02:45speaker and as your regular speaker as well so that sound okay so to your phone i know technically
02:51you shouldn't be using your device uh when you are working out but there are a lot of times when
02:55you
02:55need it to say look up a workout you obviously might be doing the good old thumb workout if you
03:00like to lift weights and then go back to your phone but the samsung galaxy z flip 7 or z
03:04flip 7
03:05wherever you are is a great one because if you are say following a workout class so whatever you choose
03:10whether that's uh peloton or you're following a youtube video i was actually at the google launch
03:14yesterday they have a new fitbit training coach coming sometime in the fall things like that you're
03:19following along on something having a folding device is actually really beneficial because you can
03:24actually watch the video like this there are so many times when you're doing a workout i'm doing say
03:29like a yoga workout where i am like on my hands knees i'm in this weird position it is so
03:35hard to see a
03:35phone when it is fully flat like i'm trying to lean over and look at it having a flip phone
03:40just
03:40makes it so much easier to see what's going on on your screen whether you're following a trainer
03:43whether you're following like a bit of a tutorial so much easier than it went down flat and another
03:48cool thing is say you are filming yourself you're working out with once again your trainer you want
03:53to see your technique your form typically you would have to stand your phone upright so whether you have
03:58a stand this one the flip has this built-in kickstand with the bottom of the phone once again
04:04little lego guy as an example his arms don't move so say he's doing wrist curls and he is showing
04:08off
04:09to his trainer he wants to see what he's actually doing i can record that with the flip phone with
04:13the front facing camera and actually see what's going on on the cover screen so useful for working
04:18out i would never recommend you know you're on your device while you are doing it but in those
04:22instances where you need to i think the flip is a cool little addition to the tech space and since
04:27i
04:27am using a samsung device i thought it was great to pair them since they just work well together so
04:31this is the samsung galaxy watch ultra 2 the only new thing this year is the actual colorway for the
04:37ultra lineup they also just have the galaxy watch like eight eight classic those are also great
04:42watches but the ultra is for i guess like ultra workouts for people that really like to use them
04:47for those purposes other great features of the ultra 2 mostly are around the battery life and the
04:52performance so unlike other smart watches where you have to charge them every day every day and a
04:56half this lasts like around 50 hours so if you're doing ultra long marathons this is ip68 water
05:01resistant it's got dual gps so if you are working out in an area with no cell service you can
05:06still
05:06connect it's built super well and rugged titanium around the outside obviously sapphire glass for
05:11the screens both on the front as well as the back to track your heart rate it's a nice watch
05:15and i
05:16prefer this over say the apple watch ultra more so just because i'm a classic like circular watch
05:21person i know that it has the square around the outside but uh for whatever reason apple just still
05:26has the traditional square give me a circular watch any day of the week so that is device and watch
05:31next is kind of like your bags or how you would carry your workout gear so these are two options
05:37from graham's 28 it's part of their new adventure line so we'll start with this one first because
05:41i've used it more recently for some hiking this is like a backpack version so this new lineup is made
05:46out of x-pack material which is essentially a synthetic durable material on the outside so it's
05:51water resistant you can take this you know when you're on the go typically graham's 28 products are
05:56made out of like high-end quality leather this one's made more so for adventuring a bit more
06:00rugged so a couple of these features you can easily see the main compartment on the inside which
06:05you can access from the front it has these zippers so you can fully access everything on the inside
06:09what i really like about hiking say for example bags is water bottle containers on the side you never
06:15know what you're up to when you are hiking you never know if you're putting your backpack down
06:19it's easy easy for it to slip out this one has these little button loops which keeps everything in
06:24place you can still carry around like your main gear whether it's your hiking stuff it even has room for
06:29say like a laptop you're an adventure photographer still super comfy to wear it has the chest straps
06:33which are really important for hiking and say for example from my last hike my shoes which collect
06:38that you know a lot of gunk a lot of dirt they have these little travel packs that you can
06:42just put
06:43your stuff into so all the dirt collects in the bag they don't get into your main compartment so say
06:47you're done your hike zip them up and that kind of slots into the main compartment there
06:54so that's the hiking backpack the next one is their adventure duffel i would say more so for
06:59everyday gym use so this is great to take uh like i said every day when you're going to the
07:03gym it's
07:04made out of that same expat material on the outside so for example i typically put uh you know my
07:08gym
07:08shoes once again a water bottle i'm not like a big supplement person but for example i have some
07:14electrolytes protein bars after the gym which i'll get to at the end of this video and those usually
07:18slip into the other side of the bag and then say maybe some of your valuables like your wallet your
07:23phone can fit into the far pocket it's simple and it also comes with a shoulder strap if you want
07:28to
07:28sling that around your shoulder and even has this little luggage strap if you are someone that likes
07:32to carry this around with you so really handy bag obviously very durable cool to see graham's 20
07:37getting into like a different lineup they are on the pricier end but i think once you invest into one
07:42you can use it for years to come it's just cool to see them get into a different line of
07:46stuff so the next
07:47one we kind of had it on the inside is that really tech related it's my water bottle i'll just
07:51obviously leave a link this is called the hydro flask so instead of buying you know your three four
07:56dollar bottle every day just use an aluminum one you can get them you know online off of amazon
08:01fun little story since this is fitness related i got this from the apple fitness studio when i got to
08:07check that out i was actually more interested in how they shot the episodes i kind of geeked out around
08:12the production really cool to see personally like i said i don't use apple fitness or any of
08:17the other paid subscriptions i typically follow like the same workout routine i've done since
08:21college university days it's like a hypertrophy workout i focus on a different muscle group every
08:26day so say today would be chest day four exercises four sets 10 to 12 repetitions of each until i'm
08:32fatigued and kind of rinse and repeat for years i would say the most important thing with fitness or
08:37working out is the consistency but um that was off topic off tangent not really but uh that is my
08:43water
08:44bottle for any of you that want to see some tech if you are crazy enough to drink sparkling water
08:49which i am a big fan of check out this aero flow so it essentially fills up with regular water
08:54and you
08:55can insert these replaceable cartridges which you can use them like three to four times per use before
09:00you can swap them and it has this button up top which you can carbonate your water and like i
09:09said
09:09i personally love sparkling water or love carbonated water even when i'm working at i know i'm really
09:15psycho like that
09:18almost a bit spicy you know how much carbonation i've added cool little piece of tech that's
09:23related to water but for your water game just have a reusable bottle okay this heavy one so the next
09:30one
09:30is like around weights so this is technically a tempo weight set i know that tempo has an entire range
09:37of like tech products they have that like big mirror that you can use to uh see like different
09:41workouts but for their weights i actually just bought these because they are adjustable you can
09:46get once again anyone's off of amazon you can see that the weights kind of slide on you'd be how
09:51surprised how heavy this one weight set can get weirdly enough since covid i actually have not had a gym
09:57membership uh i'll actually show some b-roll or if you actually like look this way like camera
10:02turtle yes i've got a squat rack right there so that is a squat rack from gorilla if there is
10:08one
10:09piece of like home workout tech to get get a rack you can do anything from like bench press to
10:16pull-ups
10:16to squatting just hitting the major muscle groups and then everything else as long as you have like a
10:21couple free weights you can work your accessory muscles like your biceps triceps every other muscle
10:26group like i said i haven't had that gym membership for five years how long has copen been six time
10:32flies and still in decent ish shape so next piece of tech this is more around like recovery usually i
10:39have this in my gym bag as i've gotten a little older over the years uh and need to focus
10:44more on
10:45recovery this is just a fair gun or i guess the actual brand is called fair body it's just a
10:50little
10:50massage gun so i know that there's a bunch of different modes that you can go through i just do
10:54like
10:54the auto and in an area that i'm sore say you know i'm done golfing for the day my wrist
10:58or forearms
10:59are sore i just use this little gun to go over my muscles provides nice relief you don't have to
11:05get
11:05an actual massage from a masseuse you can just easily just do this while you're watching tv while
11:10you're hanging out if you have a bit of like downtime if you sit behind a computer all day oh
11:15your neck
11:17gets sore oh that actually feels really good you just kind of leave yourself with a bit of recovery but
11:23this is a really cool piece of tech maybe one of my favorites on the list and i've been kind
11:27of
11:27gatekeeping some of my recovery stuff so that is there last but not least this is just stuff not
11:32really tech related but what i kind of use so like i'm a big nike guy i have loved the
11:37brand i know that
11:38must age me because there's so many new ones but i got these as a gift for my wife these
11:42are the
11:43vaporfly threes these are technically carbon plated shoes so there is tech built into the sole of this
11:49this actually gives you like a three or four percent like energy return every time you bounce
11:54off is it worth the price if i didn't get this as a gift probably not i think they look
11:58dope it
11:59literally feels like you're walking on a cloud and i really like them because i think i have this like
12:03sweaty foot disorder where my feet get super sweaty as long as my running shoe has some form of
12:09perforation i'm a big fan of that that's what i kind of look for in a running shoe so those
12:13are my
12:14runners and i'm not like a big supplement person but i do like to just crush a protein bar after
12:20a
12:20workout i get them from costco these are tasty robert irvine's protein bar there's your plug and
12:27i do use electrolyte mixes especially when i travel so these little pouches are nice i get them from
12:33liquid iv once again a costco purchase i stick a couple of these like in my gym bag i have
12:38them when
12:38i travel like i said just take you know one a day so it replenishes not only your electrolytes but
12:43keeps you really well hydrated since you're forcing yourself to drink more water easy on the go and
12:49that um is my workout regime so uh like i said yeah i typically leave my workout stuff for my
12:56own like
12:56personal time if you want to ask some questions i'm happy to answer them in the comments but i've
13:00been doing literally the same like weekly workout regime for like 15 16 years that and my like two to
13:08three times per week uh soccer football um as i called it since i used to live in europe once
13:13again
13:14not a lot of you guys know that played professionally for like psv eindhoven academy team once again a lot
13:19of things that you might not know about uh what i've done in a past life hope you enjoyed this
13:24episode
13:24and i'll catch the rest of you in one of my next ones peace
13:30let's go
