Summary of the vlog (Evoland 2.0 gym build, training & routines)

Evoland 2.0 meeting / planning update

  • The hosts are attending an Evoland 2.0 planning meeting where key decisions are made.
  • They’re in an intense planning phase, so they ask viewers to send feedback immediately because delivery times can be very long—sometimes ~4 months.

Background travel + lifestyle notes

  • They recently traveled to Vancouver, Canada (about a 9-hour time difference), and note it affects especially younger family members.
  • Vancouver is described as:
    • Beautiful nature
    • Easy access to great food spots
  • Weight notes:
    • The host gained about 2.5 kg over a few days
    • They say roughly ~1.5 kg is already gone again
    • Remaining weight is attributed to factors like water/glycogen after high-calorie “cheats”
  • They advise enjoying high-calorie cheats without spiraling—by managing them within an implied diet/training structure.

Gym upgrade costs (cryotherapy + renovation)

  • Cryotherapy / premium cooling equipment:
    • Costs can start around ~80k
    • Price varies depending on interior build quality/materials
    • Some estimates mention high-end variations (e.g., Germany/Asia/gold-plated interiors)
  • Renovation budgeting:
    • Roughly €2–3 million for renovation/furnishing
  • Renovation details:
    • Exterior walls and roof are being modified, while some exterior elements are preserved
    • The building isn’t treated as a “listed building”
    • The interior is still being finished/furnished, with additional costs after the “shell” and major building work

Promotion / product deals (Fuel Week)

  • It’s the last day of “Fuel for you week”
    • 20% off the entire Evo range
  • Included items:
    • Evoars
    • Creatine
    • Other shop products
  • Restocks mentioned:
    • Wze is almost fully restocked
    • Ivonade Lemon is back

Strength training highlights (New Tech machine + back volume)

  • New Tech / high-capacity machine:
    • Adjustable to be narrow or wide (rod insertion changes width)
    • Adjustable width, height, and range of motion
    • They discuss load capacity and testing heavy weight:
      • Trying up to about ~300 kg
      • Choosing around 240 kg for their working set
  • Training abroad comparison:
    • They compare their top-tier home setup (Evoland) with a Vancouver commercial gym that had limited selections
    • They felt “spoiled” by Evoland after seeing only a small set of machines (including an example of a seated leg curl machine from one specific brand)
  • Back / trapezius advice:
    • They criticize the common take that people don’t do enough trapezius volume
    • Their argument:
      • If you care about the middle back / 3D back, 4 sets per session is their “absolute minimum”
      • Many exercises don’t substantially overlap or directly target the middle trapezius, so dedicated volume is needed
      • Two sets twice per week is described as not enough for meaningful growth
    • They also reject an older guideline:
      • Don’t avoid scapular/shoulder movement during pulldowns just because outdated advice says so
      • Their view: restricting shoulder movement provides little to no benefit, and may even reduce lat gains

Supplements / post-workout routine

  • Post-workout shake:
    • 40 g EvoNate Lemon
    • Presented as something you can now buy, especially with the deal

Fitness routine: daily cardio

  • They do cardio daily
    • They believe they missed it only once (possibly during “Power Week”)
  • Routine includes 30 minutes of Zone 2 cardio
  • They plan to later report how daily Zone 2 cardio affects them (implied tracking).
