Loved seeing Echo dropping some knowledge!

[@joet7580]

Yeah echo going off on jocko!

[@gregwillard4934]

Joe T and then making it part of a Jocko clip.

[@dondavies5766]

I had the good fortune to go to some of Jocko's talks and gatherings. This man is amazing! He shares the best strategies he discovered while serving as a Navy Seal, which are highly applicable and useful in everyday life, especially in the business sector!

[@johnfff]

Echo assertive... plus humor too! Brilliant combination

[@user-qu6rd1uv7z]

Damn, Echo actually speaks.

[@TheIndirectgaming]

I literally started dying when echo started lowkey roasting jocko around 3:00

[@beachdaddy5588]

Echo finally asserting himself! Good job there, buddy!

[@Scipio_Americano_III]

He sounded pretty confused to me

[@beachdaddy5588]

@@Scipio_Americano_III maybe you were confused by his assertion? 🤣

[@24Ruiner]

@@Scipio_Americano_IIIyep, it sounds impressive to some, but he doesn’t back up any of it. Just babbling really Still love the guy

While traveling, the thing I found to be most useful is using resistance bands. You can stack up several of them and reach several hundred pounds of resistance at lockout. Combine that with the calisthenics and you got a solid progression and exercise selection.

[@waltherwagner9711]

Rings and calisthenics are definetly the way to go. For example: Australian pullups, pullups, pushups dips. Archer pullups/pushups, one arm pullups/pushups, muscle ups, pistols, weighted pistols. Bands are also great to train smaller muscles like your external rotator. AND: natural strongman exercises, for example deadlifting or carrying heavy stones If you have access during your travel. The advantage is that you can do them everywhere and be very consistant in your trianing.

[@pazpaz4930]

deflated water begs to add wight . just fill up when you arrive to the hotel and deflate when going, its compact and versatile you can do push ups and pull ups and squat with them , add wood rings and do Australian pull ups with them

[@davethedm]

Will it still work if I move my body through outer space?

[@waterproof4403]

Im joining the Navy soon Ive recently been watching his motivational videos and it is helping me!

[@coolkidcrypto386]

[@aikishugyo]

I haven't laughed this much in these podcasts before. Echo, brilliant.

[@lanes8237]

Echo finally brings it! LOL

[@iamawuss]

Echo “Neuromuscular” Charles

[@adamfirth3082]

Sprints, pull ups, dips, press ups, ab exerces. Boom ur whole body has been worked on in a natural and effective way.

[@andymerkel6955]

In the hotel room, I used to alternate between "hotel barb" (30pushups/40situps/50squatsx5rds for time) and a heavier/much lower rep day with pistols/handstand pushups and burpees all in the confines of a hotel room; then strap on the running shoes and jog around the neighborhood to check out new surroundings; and if I was lucky, I sometimes found a spot to do pullups at a playground or something...

[@gearsmithy]

I think what echo is saying is that your body responds to stress and you put more physical and mental stress on the body when you are required to use more of it at once. There's a risk element to it but there's a limit where the risk is too high (eg weighted push-ups are better then bench press to a point but having significant weight on your back - and close to your neck- quickly produces diminishing returns). All else equal, if you can do a movement that incoporates more complexity and balance your body will respond disproportionately to that movement.

[@Biggelz06]

Jocko could you make a workout video pls?

[@raywade5845]

Get a large tuff sandbag/duffle bag; fill it on location. One of my go-to’s is a Rogue sandbag that I can load up to 200 lbs.

[@Steve-holm]

Thank you 😊

[@The180Impact]

Where do we get this "Serious Growth" book? I'm very interested

[@jenniferdana5665]

So buy or get gymnastics rings and hang them in order to be able to use them for building strength and power. Be consistent. Do cardio and aerobic activity as well. Eat correctly, make sure to get enough protein, don't overdo on carbs. Have vegetables and a little bit of fruit. Have low fat food. If you have issues like not being able to eat or have a lot of potassium or phosphorous, then limit those foods or have smaller portions of those so you won't end up vomiting or itching. Take medications you need to. If you have certian medical conditions eating incorrectly does and will cause and bring you unwanted problems.

[@bugslinger77]

I want to get on Echos arm program.

[@DaemonDriver]

And let's do not forget about Bulgarian bag, which I have seen Jocko use! This is the ultimate training system. Get some

[@Graydog-sx6le]

Echo!!

[@jenniferdana5665]

Sonny Puzikas can do pistol squats on kettlebells. He said in a KZbin video of his, doing pistol squats on kettlebells is an advanced exercise technique that should not be attempted by beginners. Because as a beginner it means you haven't yet developed enough strength, endurance and power to correctly and safely do the exercise. Getting, being in that kind of physical condition and shape takes years. But working towards, achieving and maintaining that...will be incredibly challenging and extremely rewarding! 😊😁😎👍👍👍👍

[@teleseal1]

Are there any videos on Jocko competing in BJJ? I cant find any.

[@stingscorpio9350]

Jocko. What do you think about toshindo as a martial art? Also what do you think about ninjutsu conoarrd to being a seal?

[@stingscorpio9350]

Jocko what do you think about toshindo as a martial art? Also what do you think about ninjutsu compared SEAL or ninjas i should say

[@ml3846]

Do Jiu Jitsu. Do Muay Thai. Do Boxing. Do Wrestling. Do Judo. If you want to play around with some more fun and traditional martial arts do Karate and Tae Kwon Do and a splash of Wing Chun. If you want to practice stuff to fight people with weapons do Krav Maga.

[@Shervinm]

Jocko had to check his ego at 3:15 lol

[@brianlewis1372]

Echo is so fucking funny haha

[@Scipio_Americano_III]

Now I know why Echo is so quiet most of the time. LMFAO

[@Carbondan]

Jocko - Please have DRAGO on the podcast. It would be amazing.

[@stevecupples2071]

Have a regular Joe on the show, like me. You have your thoughts other Joes have their’s.

[@btownb4462]

So a stationary bike would not be moving your body through disciples, correct?

[@jenniferdana5665]

It is better for me to work out and do calasthenics consistently so I'll be able to improve my fitness, health, flexibility, endurance and make sure to eat clean, healthy, high protein, low carb, low fat, and not overdo on anything and listen to my body. Progress gradually and steadily.

[@brendanmcpike184]

Rings and a TRX

[@brendanmcpike184]

Also if you're somewhere you could do dips like off a bed frame or chair

[@robertpope3619]

How did Echo and Jocko meet?

[@Sonnycrockett1989]

jiu jitsu training

[@jrkoosh]

THE MAT

[@Meisterling]

Jesus Christ, it‘s Jason Bourne!

[@ShinobiHOG]

I ruptured a tendon in my finger and broke a bone a couple months ago. It still won't ball up as tight as my other fingers when I make a fist......

[@mozartism258]

stay focused.👀

[@benjaminschwartz1242]

Jockos great but he talks too much and dominates the conversation far too often. Echo is great and gives fantastic advice. We need more Echo speaking for minutes at a time without being interrupted by jocko.

[@HAL-dm1eh]

Gymnastic rings = rotator cuff SUICIDE for the novice Dumbells are NOT superior to barbells for bench press, which is why you don't see guys pushing tons of weight on dumbells. Push ups ARE the superior pushing exercise for the body, but handicapped because you can't progressively load it like a barbell that holds hundreds of lbs. For those of us into barbell strength training using progressive load there is unfortunately no substitute for the barbell and the iron. I was thinking of going into truck driving as it's otherwise perfect for me who is in desperate need of a career path, but I can't do it because of this issue which is of highest priority. Anyone interested in being accused of being on steroids as a natty, try looking up Mark Rippetoe and Starting Strength. Watch him on youtube. Get his book and join the forum. Ask questions. You will NOT regret it.

[@Telluwide]

Suspension Trainers! Like TRX developed by a Navy Seal btw. Although and unfortunately TRX spends most of its money on marketing and not on the quality of their product. There are much better built suspension trainers out there at half the price though.....

[@short0811]

Skinny knees!

[@powrdbyhonda1]

Whatever brah!

[@solbadguy49]

lol moving thru space, I think Echo meant training with free weights instead of using machines where the movement is fixed

[@Stoic_Rational_Buddhist]

Nope. He means moving your body thru space.. like squats your body is moving in 3D space. Not just your arms pushing during a free weight bench press.

[@solbadguy49]

@@Stoic_Rational_Buddhist nope..that's called multiple joint exercise..not 3D..the fuck, everything around is 3D that's not the term!

[@butsirrr]

Jocko on that TRT son!

[@ironmarshmallow5362]

What is that?

Testosterone Replacement Therapy, or HRT (Hormone Replacement Therapy)
