[@ihtenubz9697]

Yeah, let’s price everybody out of the sport sounds good to me 😢

[@YahyaMohammed14]

Yeah he's chatting shit

[@TheSeanHart513]

Agreeed i got that work and nowhere worth it to bring it

[@BillyBobThorton777]

well no but $75 is crazy low. even when I was at the UFC gym I found it odd for only like $125 a month I could do Muay Thai, open sparring, BJJ, MMA, & strength and conditioning classes 3 months after enrolling the gym shuts down

[@indomitable9280]

Right

[@VegaH_]

@@BillyBobThorton777 new place just opened up near me. It’s got legacy and history their expanding with a second location, $400 a month for unlimited classes Or $250 a month per class/style 3times a week.

[@joshua_huang_7692]

I think a dinner for 150$ is the real issue here 😭

[@aew0aew0]

Gonna start looking for a gym that costs $7500 a month using this logic. 😇

[@Mr_Nobody74]

Lmfao 😂

[@americandissident9062]

My gym charges me $125 per month for unlimited BJJ, Muay Thai, and MMA training. We have many amateur fighters, and routinely have UFC fighters come through. Most recent was Gillian Robertson I believe.

[@chaoticway3795]

What's the gym?

[@animebottomline96]

Wtz the gym?

[@rockzen8050]

Its in FL

[@monarchsuriname3579]

Bet he owns a McDojo

[@ensnaredbyflesh1030]

You've never trained if you think $75 is isn't absurdly cheap for a martial arts gym. It won't even cover operating costs.

[@Based-Anarcho-Syndicalist-Chad]

​@@ensnaredbyflesh1030 Depends entirely on the number of students and the rent price.

[@bane3991]

Ive never heard of 75 a month. The lowest around me is 150.

[@sds6303]

This guy sounds full of himself. It’s 100% up to the person themselves to change their own life. Yeah he might be helping them along the way, that is true. However, it is completely up to the individual to make the decision to change their life, be accountable, be consistent & work hard. My former martial arts school/fitness center charged me a total of $143 for UNLIMITED classes & my gym now charges me $129 for unlimited classes & full access to the gym for my own workouts. This guy sounds a little too narcissistic for my liking. He needs to be humble.

[@royburgess7515]

Most young guys that want to be fighters and are tough enough to be fighters Don't come from lots money and can't afford expensive memberships. But if you're catering to people who have plenty of money to spend and just want to feel like a tough guy. Well this guy is for you.

[@earlcarlwell]

Texas Tate selling his gym hard

[@meicc398]

Bro talks like he teaches magic or something

[@saucelord780]

I remember back in the day some of the best boxing gyms in my city were free. These prices have gotten out of control….this dude is a cornball

[@xerosully981]

Wheres your cauliflower ears... camon man

[@TheMatrixofMeaning]

I'm middle aged man who trains himself. I don't need you to change my life, I just want to kearn some cool and effective moves and practice them against fully resistant people. Lose the ego Ill find a place to train that isn’t just hustling ruch people

[@andrique1]

The gym i go to is only 90$ bucks a month, teach all aspects of mma and weight room access,and its actually much better and cleaner than the jiu-jitsu only gym that i was paying 175$ a month at,so its a few good cheap gyms out there

[@Happycamper808]

The UFC gym here in hawaii charges 39$ a month and you get access to everything. Strength and cardio classes and even free ufc events when they throw ppv parties.

[@WaldoRod]

C. Coach isn’t in it for the $

[@ensnaredbyflesh1030]

You expect people to teach you for free?

[@WaldoRod]

@@ensnaredbyflesh1030 nah but i’ve seen subpar coaches drain their students for every penny.

[@meicc398]

That's what they say😂

[@jalilkebouchi1121]

I'm now training Judo for 20$ A YEAR, and the coach is really good. Here's a proof : one of his students ( my teammate ) ranked first in a national Judo competition. We train 3 times a week, and our coach encourages us not to skip a single day. Now I want to start MMA, but I think that if I tell my father it's gonna cost 75$ a month, he's gonna have a heart attack 😅

[@jordanvenegas8022]

Hows judo ? Especially with mma ?

[@sleepy2039]

This guy is definitely a salesman

[@fliprodriguez5250]

$75 a month “1on1”- too low $75 a month class of 30- ok

[@Mr_Nobody74]

Some people can't afford it.

[@progressivewarriormonster]

If you plan to change who someone is then As A Great Coach You should charge only how much one can afford 15USD per month is enough you will have enough students to be great branded gym, Charge 75 and above only to those who want to go professional.

[@Pyreax865]

Probably a McDojo owner

[@nofreehooks]

Who tf is this guy?!

[@diogo88387]

I don't know either

[@chongxina8288]

Dunno but he sure thinks he’s sombody. He’ll likely convince people who are prone to that too. Make them believe he has magical powers and sh1t. 😂

[@sds6303]

A narcissist, that’s who this guy is

[@animebottomline96]

Hahaa gd question

[@210corona]

The way you said skills and confidence sounded too sweet for over $75

[@jalenking3076]

This dumbass clown basically just said (if you find a good gym for cheap ur owner is stupid because I cant feed my family off that”

[@user-vm8sp4wk6r]

If you really knew what you were doing you would do it for nothing

[@OfficialNice]

I don’t think any gym ever deserves new members trying your potentially terrible coaching for $75

[@AlwaysChillinTime]

I PAID 50$ A MONTH FOR THE OFFICIAL UFC GYM IN HAWAII! THE MOST EXPENSIVE STATE! THEY HAD 10 FREE CLASSES A DAY. YOUR RIDICULOUS

[@user-yc4rw6zs3v]

Not really. Actually 75 dollars like training is exactly what you get in a lot of gyms. They can't cope with the stress of explaining to everyone what they have to do. So why would you pay more.

[@HughJass_736]

in my country the training is super cheap I pay the equivalent to only 16 USD per month

[@thedailyruns6046]

What a clown.

[@meicc398]

So full of himself 🤮

[@user-qh3lw4xe4i]

Exactly some no name dude way to overconfident. Wish I can find out where his gym is and the name of it. He sounds ridiculous

[@monkwushu2305]

I go to an mma gym at the moment and They have 4 classes, mma, Muay Thai, and boxing and gi/no gi jiujitsu with a fundamentals class twice a week. For EVERY class there’s a technique, for example, 1,2,3 low kick and the partner exchanges the same punch. Or one person jabs and the other defends. Then we go to a light spar or one doing offense and one doing defense. I don’t feel like their focused on development, but more so having people “feel” like their “fighters” for the day. Would this be worth staying at or finding a different place.

[@christopheraustin9861]

While that's good for finding friends and maybe losing a little weight it's not gonna do shit when it comes to a actual match while you guys are learning 1 or 2 techniques with every class the other gyms you have to face could be learning 6 different techniques per class( I don't know if any other gyms do that but that's how I was taught in Kansas lol) while I would say if ur trying to lose weight and just having fun u should maybe stay but if ur planning on going pro hell if ur just wanting to do amateur but still actually learn you should quit that gym

[@VegaH_]

Depends on your goal, Fitness or competition.

[@chaseatlanticfan6553]

@@VegaH_my goal is 100% competition but with the gyms costing this much and the lack of respect for newcomers is discouraging asf

[@Soupy_bass]

You need to find a hole in the wall gym, or like an American top team style gym. Hole in the walls are where grit and mentality develop. Big box gyms are where alot of refinement happens (especially on the fight team) ive done both. Developed my mentality in a small space with tough pros and then my skills went through the roof after making the fight team at a major gym.

[@monkwushu2305]

@@Soupy_bass that’s a good way of looking at it, building your grit and rawness at the smaller gym with pros and anyone else, then making that transition to “refinement” .

[@jacobthompson3752]

You should check Hansen Yang underrated big man from China that could sneak into the lottery in this type of draft class

[@earthend9377]

Same with my brotha, just started training yesterday and still fell the soreness in my body

[@ejohnson1767]

Depends on the location. Most places are less than 200 a month where i live. 150 or 100 a month is common.

[@thefamousgabe]

@@ejohnson1767yeah in europe i live in nyc. 180 is the cheapest here

[@steveberman2619]

Comparing apples to oranges doesn’t justify your expensive gym membership. You could have bought a cheaper meal

[@liong8587]

Honest question here…I’m opening my own Boxing and MMA training center here in TX. Back when I was still fighting I was primarily training on the west coast mostly in San Diego, all the big name gyms and everything else in between. Luckily I never had to pay for training throughout my career so price point is lost on me. What would you folks consider good value so that you don’t feel you’re priced out of the sport as far as memberships are concerned? What value is it your hoping to obtain at the price point you have in mind? What do y’all feel should and shouldn’t be included in the referenced price point?

[@abcgif9739]

i think theres difference people go to MMA gym for either self-defense or being a pro

[@user-ui3qr8ls3p]

Mcdojo😂😂😂😂

[@calebgoforth9203]

It’d be different if it was 1000 years ago and I had to hunt my food and battle for my life. Most people will never see true violence and for those that do they most likely grew up knowing how to protect themselves

[@TeleEdmundo]

Or the trainer does it for the love and not for the money…

[@GBDACE]

Dumb logic, some gyms actually run by people who love the sport.

150 times number of students. I think it's just that there is not enough competition in the market.

Me and my family eat for under 40 dollars lol. Idk where this guy goes out to eat…. Unless he has a family of 8+ …. Btw I’ve never heard of this guy… how many world championships has he won? Genuinely curious

[@crissy7183]

I really wish I knew you!

[@TheOreo2008]

I pay $200 a month, which comes out to $50 a week and $10 a day since I go 5 days a week. I feel it’s already too low for the amount of coaching I get. It’s not pricing people out, it’s keeping gyms in business.

[@chongxina8288]

No thanks. 😅 If you tried this where I’m from you’d go under before you knew it. Especially with gyms half that price. Good gyms. Multiple time world IBJJF champion charging a quarter of that less? Easy choice. Really you could just spend a lot more and fly out to Thailand. Then they’ll say “this training is worth 10 million dollars k thnx”. Then you goto buy some water “This water is the best water, 10,000 dollars.” If anything I’m VERY skeptical of people who charge too much.

[@okeoll]

I train in gym where i get bjj boxing muay thai and mma plus gym for only 89€ so stop talking

[@thedieseldiet]

This guy is a dork. How is he changing lives by teaching cookie cutter mma combos? Tons of great gyms that dont charge an arm and a leg. Tons of mcdojos with fake fighters changing 300 bucks a month.
