[@lolokim15]

Hey guys, I've been reading some of the comments on here & feel the need to address some things. First of all, I do not appreciate the ignorant comments directed towards my race (i.e. assuming I'm Chinese when I'm really Korean-American). If you're gonna bring up my background at all, at least make it funny (the Rush Hour joke = hilarious!). Martial arts is way more diverse than what you see in the old kung fu movies; it's something that belongs to people from all walks of life, no matter the background. After all, isn't something like cyber bullying going against what Shane is trying to teach? Secondly, if you don't like the product, don't buy it. All I wanted to do was to promote a new product that I feel would be beneficial for fighters. Plain & simple. Third point: Sure, maybe my ankles looked like they're rolled while I was kicking. The reality was that the balls were inflated to the fullest capacity. A little hard to keep your ankles stable at that point, but I still survived. Critique all you want, but please be respectful about it.

[@ArtGolden]

Hey Lorenz, kids can be very cruel. Some think it's all just a joke and probably don't mean anything by it. But yeah, there's also a ton of cyber bullying by keyboard warriors that occurs on all YT videos. Admittedly, some comments can really hurt and/or be very hard to ignore. And more often than not, any reasoned response just elicits more idiotic comments. Don't know if you remember me (I'm wearing the black Nak Muay shirt at 00:13) but I was there when you guys filmed this and you did a great job explaining the how's and whys of the product. I know it can be tough, but try not to let these kids get under your skin. Best of luck with your goals!

[@lolokim15]

Thanks man, means a lot

[@oliverjones6873]

Turns out the Orientals are highly sensitive, I never... I would have bet a million that they were not a sensitive race of people

[@iliass.923]

Lorenz Kim i love the product! You should be proud and just dont give a shit about the bad comments, take there good critic. Sorry for My bad english.

[@JaguarPaw187]

Shane an actual human being ! stay humble my friends

[@beatdwn92]

I really like watching fighttips videos after training muay thai and boxing 🥊. Ill take advice and write it down thank you shane 🤘🏻

[@YoungBaka]

Perfect timing. Just needed this

[@fighttips]

Oh perfect!

[@SwearingWizard77]

This really helped Shane, Thanks for all you do.

[@a.l-moodli3978]

It’s cool to see Shane is a coach.

[@abadgerabroadinthailand1378]

keep up the good work guys. I stated doing a mixed martial art 6 weeks ago. I'm now a white senior and the master told me I can go for grading again in two weeks, normally each grading is two months apart but from watching your videos and practicing four times a week I'm moving up quickly. you make it really clear what you have to do for each kick, punch and to maintain good balance. Thank you ☺

[@emanuel6233]

Yo that really doesn't sound like mixed martial arts. At least not in the modern MMA sense. "Master" and "ranks" sounds very mcdojo for an MMA gym

[@emanuel6233]

I don't mean to disrespect you or your gym btw

[@mrosama3661]

watch from 5:27 I guarantee you'll be laughing non stop.

[@alexzandertomlinson4072]

[@kinghuynh2725]

i like about all of ur vids, not just because im a big fan, but that the vids are very useful. keep up the good work

[@floatboatthegoat1267]

Awesome vid, Shane! Wish I could've came to the seminar though :( Come to England sometime man!

[@fighttips]

Certainly in the realm of possibility, brotha!

[@lospohaku]

Hey Shane, man love the videos. I already see improvement in my stand-up. Do you have a video on throwing overhand punches? Also do you feel they are an effective attack? Appreciate the vids.

[@xtrapaznx2297]

Your videos are awesome they helped me a lot with boxing!!

[@fernandomendoza798]

I like those balance shoes. I'll look them up and train with those. thanks for the tips.

[@brodieredfern452]

Fernando Mendoza no worries

[@almasakic1148]

i like the one where you spin and then shadow box. that looks fun ima try that :)

[@TheMightyMcClaw]

Holy shit. Hi, Lorenz! Wasn't expecting to see you here!

[@BillNepill]

Can you make a video about dealing with minor injuries from training or sparring and how to keep training through injuries?

[@mladenmilenkovic9279]

Don't skip leg day fam!

[@shanebowles2632]

awesome thanks shane. love your videos

[@imwolf4851]

Thanks for this video. I can always use help on my balance. Plus I also like that knee push you did.

[@antiveyt.v.2039]

good video very helpful I just learned something new thanks dude

[@HuSoYoutube]

Thanks for making videos man youa re inspirating me for my first fight !

[@ynrjayce830]

Since everyone's about 'Height doesn't matter in a fight' and 'Weight doesn't matter' did I also mention that people also say that 'Strength doesn't matter' in a fight, only technique does?? So you're saying that if someone 5'8 to 6'2 and they're also skinny or fat and tries to start a fight with you and you're only 5'5 or 5'6 do you think you can kick there ass even if you have let's say boxing skills? and they're just going in aggressive as fuck at you??

[@demanso1]

DavidTheSav mark hunt and tua who's fat and short ko guys 6'4+ Along with Pacquiao beating up guys 6feet tall

[@enonsages]

Man , you are so awsome , I really like youre channel and you speak very fluently, those videos really helped me out ( i practice Vovivam) , are you a MMA fighter ? (sorry I dont know too much about you , but you have great videos)

[@123theentertainers]

Great, needed this so much!

[@arisk.7776]

I really love your shoes Shane!!

[@BboyFrancePants]

This is awesome Shane! Great video! Too bad I couldn't make the seminar, musta been a good one.

[@gokucenter9593]

where's your gym at I would like to try out

[@M_K-Bomb]

Nice to let Lorenz promote his friends product.

[@thewolfmccall1341]

Michael Kriechbaum you mean SHANE?

[@xerxyys]

Aye, I was just looking for a balance video, long time sub :)

[@saianvesh3753]

When will fight tips make videos on submission maneuvers and wrestling techniques?

[@HarryBondInc]

Shane don't know if you'll see this but you should make a video after each ufc ppv with thoughts and opinions on the fights compared with your predictions beforehand

[@seapeoplesdidnothingwrong1307]

what a great salesmen _ _ - product looks pretty cool

[@Cin9999]

product looks useless and as if it breaks your ankles his ankles are collapsing the whole time...please dont buy that "functional" trendy stuff and hurt yourself

[@erinsgobragh]

Oh I want the foot thingy! You hear all the time how your balance is effected when you are pregnant and that you could just fall over just by walking :P Well by continuing my MMA conditioning, kicks, balance exercises and ISO training I feel that I have have lost a bit of balance but over all I think its more the 9 lbs I've gained that is throwing me off more than anything else lol.

[@lolokim15]

It's called the StepRight Stability System and the link to order is in the description below.

[@fred4800]

Is balance in boxing about evenly distributed weight, cause sometimes boxers do things where it doesn't look like their weight is evenly distributed

[@kylerscott8522]

Real cool dudes!

[@kobyUchiha]

Shane, do you think the step right is a good product?

[@louisgilley]

Can you make a video on Flying Knees and kicks etc. Because I'm have some trouble with them and some tips would be nice @fightTIPS

[@yazzem5968]

I learned a lot fron this channal you earnd a sub bro

[@fighttips]

Thank you, Yazz!

[@yazzem5968]

+fightTIPS lol and then react in a couple minutes

[@recognize8971]

Good stuff man!

[@ryogatee1846]

another good one!

[@teeeshizzle]

hey Shane! you previously made a video on how you'd advise against learning 2 martial arts at the same time which makes sense. But in my case, my parents are black belts in TKD and can teach me at home without much sparring or heavy target practice cause they're not as strong as they used to be. so I was thinking of learning the basics in TKD at home and go to a local boxing gym to make up for the things I can't do at home. does this sound like a good idea or should I just pick tkd or boxing and stick with one? thanks

[@rickiedrake5946]

I know I’m not Shane but I do train mma and I recommend doing whatever you want to try but make sure your getting enough rest days and not pushing yourself over the limit the only downside to you learning tkd at home is not being able to use your kicks and get used to them in sparring

[@khalidhassan3010]

I once did the straight leg deadlift with 25lbs dumbell and 2 kg ankle weights on the leg.. Damn, my back felt sore.

[@azamkhan10]

Hey Shane, what's your weight?

[@shawn1000ful]

Is boxing a good place to start for a future mma fighter?

[@Cin9999]

depends what you like when someone wants to be unbeatable ...then no its definetly BJJ, wrestling and muay thai (clinch) but boxing is also underrated in MMA because almost no fighter has very clean boxing - thats why conor mcgregor came so far

[@troller4jesus]

You should have a "fight a troll" video series. Nominate trolls in comments to fight

[@ikigaya]

Shane how to increase agility pls do a tutorial or a quick tip

[@HenzEmpire]

Nice video Shane, could you make more fight like videos? People such as Cain Velasquez and Rory MacDonald would be great! Stay awesome

[@WGolas-vj7zt]

I´ve noticed, that muay thai trainees lift their heels while kicking high. In karate however, they nag you all the time saying that it´s a mistake. I´m confused.

[@Paul-ob2hy]

Could you show situations that normally arise in a street fight and show easy ways to put them on the floor. Ex head locks / pinned on a wall (when the opponent is slightly more obese. Thanks

[@VLOG783]

Shane can you please tell me how to make strongest shins

[@dheepan0179]

shane can u make a video on how to do trick kicks( confusing the opponent )

[@fighttips]

That's what my seminar was about!

[@nikolagolic6949]

make some viseo with nunchucks and bo stuff an all that ninja weapons please!!!!

[@XGR76]

My channel has those! :) Love your videos, man! Good deadlift

[@Cin9999]

dont think shane even has those

[@vinhlepro5487]

how to make a Fighter training schedule Shane?

[@andreirock9518]

Shane,how often should i train for strenght and size? I do body weight exercices . do these help?

[@fighttips]

If you want significant size and strength, you need to eat a lot and lift heavy. Calisthenics are great, but not ideal for putting on mass. 4-5 times a week.

[@andreirock9518]

+fightTIPS do lifting heavy will stop my growing ( height ) ?

[@kylethompson6310]

+Andrei Rock no

[@andreirock9518]

+Kyle Thompson thanks for answering!

[@kylethompson6310]

Andrei Rock be smart about lifting Heavy and don't go to failure every set if you're in it for the long run and want to stay healthy. no ego lifting

[@MozkarLozada]

Shane what you can do next time someone tries to pitch a product on your channel you can be like: Hey! this guy is promoting this (and you give them 5 seconds, no more) to pitch their product if you wanna learn more about the product click the link on the video or the description below! (and send them to their webpage, youtube video etc. so they can get judged separately from your channel/videos) that way he isn't gonna suck out all the energy you got because at some point he isn't standing propertly and if he can't talk confidently nor be bias about the product instead of making a connection you're loosing people's interest (not that it affects YOU in a huge scale but just saying)

[@AnaboliKitchen]

I ain't shit with my balance.

[@AW-xt4lx]

any advice for recovering from leg day? :D leg day was Thursday and I'm still not walking right....

[@jtrodriguez1252]

when Shane says 10 on the left do I have the weight in the left hand and have my left foot grounded or have it in my right hand and have the left foot grounded.

[@ivaylokolev5500]

shane I know this question might be a little too late to ask but watched your video on shin conditioning and the second exercise was box jumps and jump squats. It was said i have to do 3 sets X 10 reps but isn't this not enough. I was thinking about doing 3 sets X 30 reps but is that too much? Thats why i need to ask you are the original sets and reps perfect or the reps need to be more?

[@seapeoplesdidnothingwrong1307]

just got a used bosu ball for $30 It really helps a lot

[@emZee1994]

Fedors drill is genius

[@hasharamigo1536]

Shane, what age did you start training?

[@iamrebbie6226]

shane are u gonna have another seminar in LA?

[@vegetasalad2483]

Do you have any tips of how to treat a tennis elbow? It make clicking noise randomly to the point of it moves my elbow because of how hard it is, it's really a lot better idk why but I think I've strengthened my muscles so it supports the joint I could be wrong tho. it would help me a tone thnx in advance

[@ironkhan3643]

yo shane, i'm having my first muay thai exhibition aka a muay thai smoker, any tips? and i've been focusing on my cardio but my fight is in 2 weeks. my gym owner said that the fights would be with people on the same skill level as me, and theirs going to be headgear, shin guards and obviously gloves and it going to be a catchweight.

[@thegamingstar3921]

Shane i dont know what to do i want to condition my shins for muiy thai but i cant go to the gym im just a kid and i dont have a heavy bag any advice?

[@brodieredfern452]

TheGamingStar you're not too young

[@jmvrk9566]

Make your bag

[@edwardstanulevich1764]

I like the concept, but the Stepright looks like it is causing some eversion of his ankles. This can lead to problems. Are his feet normally like this or is the product doing it?

[@brandonfarrell7981]

Shane I was thinking of joining mma but I already do kickboxing so should I stick with kickboxing or join mma (My kickboxing place also teaches bjj)

[@kylethompson6310]

if you do kickboxing then start bjj, that is mma

[@brandonfarrell7981]

+Kyle Thompson but the kickboxing place I go to teaches bjj but you have to get to a certain belt

[@paliccolo]

that stepright stuff looks like it's killing your ankles, or your knees whichever is the weakest.

[@Cin9999]

yes its BS - ankledeath

[@lolokim15]

No, it isn't BS. I've seen it used to treat patients first hand. Potential for injury was why I said to consult your doctor and physical therapist first before using. The website provides beginner exercises you can implement to help you ease into it. Walking is a key example.

[@Cin9999]

Lorenz Kim yeah so it treats patients that have ankles that dont collapse enough lol??

[@paliccolo]

Ok, i watched the advanced balance videos on the website. These guys were qualified to perform these exercises so i guess they are pretty good at it. I see the same problem and i feel very sorry for the people who think they get better by using this product. The only thing they will get for their time and money is a busted ankle, or knee whichever gives in first.

[@lolokim15]

The reason why I walked and shadowboxed in the video is because those are 2 examples of easier exercises you can do. Never start out doing exercises you're not comfortable with. This product is simply a tool designed to challenge your balance while developing functional strength. The inventors, whom I know personally, are accomplished physical therapists who use evidence-based practice to treat these patients. What they do is all based on legitimate scientific research that's been proven to be effective in treatment. Don't buy the product until you have consulted your doctor, PT, or other qualified fitness professional, as mentioned in the video. It's your responsibility to exercise caution if you decide to incorporate StepRight into your regimen.

[@ferntheyoutuber9960]

I've got a question. I'm getting my wisdom teeth pulled in a few days and I want to keep in shape because cross country season is just around the corner. Any exercises that won't cause insane amounts of bleeding and pain? I've been told not to run because it shakes you around too much.

[@Cin9999]

look in pilates - sounds funny but was invented to let wounded soldiers keep their musle mass when they could not leave the bed

[@ferntheyoutuber9960]

John Constantin Ok thanks I'll look into it.

[@Sierra_Charlie]

shane I would like to know if you have any tips on how to lose weight when a person is considered poor.

[@jmvrk9566]

Michael Felty Eat less shit food

[@shlomof7319]

+Fight tips good mma people told me that in a real fight it is good to kick lower kicks like in a street fight

[@fighttips]

Not many people expect them in a street fight! Just be careful of the counter punch, as you're only on 1 leg when throwing a kick.

[@snickersss8807]

i never was in a street fight but i think if you lowkick someone one or two times he will not be as agressive anymore and you can even go full speed without the fear of them to block it... because they can't;)

[@shotsofkennessy]

Funny Shane mentioned sprained ankles.. I couldn't go to the seminar because I sprained my ankle.

[@nicholasdalton7161]

[@tommywhite1944]

Mr.Shane Fazen. can you explain the bolo punch for me. I'm interested in this wide uppercut. And I look up to you. ur epic homie. bye

[@simonrooijakkers850]

take a look at his "fight like Conor McGregor" video, he talks about the bolo uppercut.

[@fighttips]

Ah thank you, brotha! The bolo punch was used by Ceferino Garcia, who used to work in the sugar cane fields. So the movement replicates swinging a machete low to high. It's a little risky, because your face is exposed, but its unorthodox nature makes it effective.

[@tommywhite1944]

How can I slip punches faster? I know how to slip inside and outside however it is too slow to dodge punches. How do I improve the speed?

[@snickersss8807]

i have problems with this too but i've made big progress with sparring a lot

[@ironkhan3643]

have a friend do pad work with you, tell him to just throw a punch at a random time wether it's a hook, jab, or cross and try to slip it or bob and weave. the only way to slip really fast is to practice

[@aezzil3536]

Work on reflex and crunches

[@Cin9999]
