Lower Body Strength

[@HenzEmpire]

I look forward to seeing more of these strength type videos Joe!

[@ExperienceMMA]

Yes, always nice to see everyone's ideas on strength training transferrable to martial artists!

[@ryandare9467]

Most PTs don't talk about periodisation. Would have to be one of the best all round coaches in the world!

[@jasonsimpson4805]

Good looking gym! Keep the workouts coming please...

[@fitnessmmaplaylists3548]

Great video as always! Whats in your opinion the best stretchs to do for fighters? Can you do a video about it?

[@ExperienceMMA]

Agreed!

[@tensae4725]

Are you looking for stretches too cool down, after a workout or to kick higher ? If you want to kick higher, you need to do dynamic stretches mate.

[@mysticalpotato447]

How much are you weighing right now Joe? You look super strong

[@supersoldierx40]

don't these muscles affect your cardio and speed?

[@CH-tv1cy]

amon mercury they make you way faster plus more muscle endurance

[@MasterTheReview]

Great content man, keep it up!!

[@fearless_aesthetics5640]

How do you manage having a lot of muscle and not gassing out? as I put more muscle on I find myself gassing out. I know that you’re not a huge fan of running for cardio.

[@fitfuelplanner]

Maybe try circuits will 30 sec rest. Usually with bodybuilding workouts you take a min or longer rest which probably doesn't improve your cardio

[@MrRandomTwat]

More muscle means your body needs more oxygen, no way to work around that. You just need to be more efficent and find a good ratio between endurance and strenght.

[@IrvinLep]

There is a difference between mass induced by proper strength training and mass induced by bodybuilding style training: one creates more muscle fibers, the other one fills the muscle cells with liquid (sarcoplasm). So step 1: don't do bodybuilding splits Step 2: do a lot of cardio work, either by running/swimming/rowing or with sport specific training, so you get more mythocondria in your cells and become more efficient at consuming oxygen. Step 3: adjust to your new weight and mass for a couple of months, so don't go for hypertrophy when you are close to competition. There is a trade off between size and cardio, but it's not as bad as people say: there are heavyweights that don't gas out (Cain Velasquez, Stipe Miocic, Fedor) and there are lighter weight fighters that have no gas tank (Conor McGregor)

[@wrenchman131]

@@IrvinLep Yeah well said. At some point in my judo carreer I did a lot more weightlifting than before. In general this made me feel better like I was better, especially on the ground, because I could brute force myself out of some tricky situations. This did burn noticable more energy than when I was more reliant on technique to get out of tricky situations. The lesson I took from this was that I should not become reliant on power, but it can be a very handy tool. Just try to learn to control your power output.

[@the121smashchampion]

Wholy shit. Was that 385x5?!

[@rdp8148]
