 What's going on guys? Eight weeks, eight weeks to go. That is the title of this video. And that's the truth. So eight sevens, 56, 56 days to go guys. First week of working with my nutrition and conditioning coach, Matthew St George is done. I didn't actually have any like check-ins with him or anything during the week because I felt fine. I knew what I had to do. I just had to stick to the plan. As far as macros go, I've counted everything. It's all in my fitness pal and I've also made up a spreadsheet on the computer so I can look down, select certain days, see the averages. It makes it awesome. I can make it into a graph if I want. So yeah, that's probably what I will do. Weight-wise, I've actually, I have stuck to the diet. He wanted me on 2500 calories with no cardio. What I've done is probably averaged maybe 28, 2800 with, I did three cardio sessions of about 500 calories each. So I think I've pretty much stuck to the plan. But I have actually, I've tightened up a bit but my weight hasn't gone down on the scale. So I really don't want to send him my updates really because the weight hasn't gone down. But I know myself, I know that I've done what I need to do in the last week and the results are there. I'm feeling fucking, I'm feeling good. I'm pretty much in the best shape of my life, just. So you can't go wrong with that. Now, what else am I going to say? I've just, oh man, I'm excited. In the back, I don't know if you heard me, I've, well on the video that I made buying my new house, I said that I can't spend my money like I want to, which is absolutely true because the big ticket purchase that I really wanted to get was a new Apple iMac, 27 inch with 5K display. And I've been putting it off, putting it off, putting it off until I get my house. I've just heard that it's actually probably going to be another three months away until I get my house. So, what I've gone and done today is just thought fuck it. I've changed my credit card to a rewards one and I've gone and blown three grand on a computer. So I got there in the back, it's not blowing three grand, I'm going to have it fucking years man. And it's just, it's all going together with my new goals to do with YouTube, to do with social media, to do with video editing, photography, I'm going to use, oh, garage band, I'm going to use that as well. I'm going to use heaps. So it's definitely a worthwhile purchase and I'm fucking excited to start using it. So if you guys have a 4K display monitor, my videos are going to start being in 4K, so that's going to be fucking mint. Not every scene's going to be in 4K, but like, because I'm not going to be able to shoot it with 60 frames per second. So if I go and slow it down, it's still going to look like shit. So I think I need to lower the resolution to 2K or 1080p to be able to do 60 frames per second or even 120 frames per second, which is going to make it so you can slow it down four times the amount. So that's going to be really cool for like lifting videos and also, yeah, that's probably, probably all it's going to be cool for, but either way, I'm on a lunch break now, I'm going to go set up my computer, I bought a desk as well. So basically, I'm living in my flatmate's house for the months before I take over ownership of my house and I'm getting a bit antsy, I really want to get out, but I'm setting up an office there. So yeah, get everything set up like I would in my new house and get it all going and using it and stuff. The desk I bought is specific to me because I got an electric one. I don't know if any of you guys saw Matt Ogis, his Episode 1 of Dedicated, which is his new series that he's brought out on YouTube. He had an awesome idea and one that I've been thinking about for a while, but I didn't actually know that these existed was an electronic height adjustable desk because my back gives me a lot of trouble. I mean, I'm only 24 and I've already got back problems. My dad has pretty bad back problems. Chiropractic can only do so much and sitting down aggravates the shit out of it. I don't know if any of you guys suffer from back, lower back issues and stuff, but if I'm sitting down for more than an hour driving or on the computer or whatever, I have to start shifting around and my back starts getting sore. So this desk is obviously adjustable. I'm not even going to buy a chair because I'm planning on doing all of my work standing up, which is so much more comfortable. It feels really awesome. So you guys should try working at a computer about standing up. So yeah, I'm on my lunch break, just coming home to drop the computer off. About to pull in now. It's eight weeks out. I don't really, I mean, yeah, last week I did a full like day vlog. I actually had the day off last week, so that was cool, but not so lucky this today. So it's Saturday the 1st of August, eight weeks out. I won't tell you the show exactly yet because I'm actually not sure. Me and my coach are sort of talking about different shows. I've got a trip planned away to New Zealand on holiday for five weeks. Sorry, not for five weeks, in five weeks, for two weeks. So I'll be coming back to Australia one week out from the show. So yeah, these vlogs will be happening all the way along. I probably do like another travel one for my trips in New Zealand, which will be cool. Really looking forward to that because I'll have all of the awesome equipment to do it on and stuff like that. And I'll also be training in a few gyms in Christchurch and around New Zealand as well, a few different ones. So I'll take you there too. So yeah, exciting things to come, man. Thank you Heaps for your support. Subscribers hit 280 today, 280. If any of you have a YouTube channel yourself, you see in the channel analytics, it shows you per 28 days. So per month, what you've achieved on your channel and it refreshes itself every day, I'm pretty sure. So views per 28 days has slowly, slowly gone up. I think at the start of this month that was started last month, it was just under 10,000 views per month. And it's slowly crept up above 11,000. Subscribers has gone from about 21, 22 per month up to like 28, 29. So yeah, I'm averaging one subscriber a day. So that's pretty exciting. Yeah, that's about it. See ya. Train hard. Stick to your goals. We're all kicking goals, man. I'm kicking goals. Some days I feel like shit. Some days I don't feel motivated. But man, what can I say? The goal, the end goal is what is, you know, you really just have to keep reminding yourself of that because I do forget about it. I forget like the shape that I'm going to be in at the end of all this is going to be worth every fucking second of all this dieting. You know, it is. I know it is because I'm so looking forward to it and I've been imagining it for so fucking long. So yeah, can't wait to get there. So we're getting it.
