This is great. I'm a 44 year old judoka. My primary goal is to be fit until I die. I think the secret is to maintain your discipline as you age. I don't think the average 60 year old can ever work his way up to that level of fitness. Improve yes, but to that level? I'll bet he's been walking that road since he was a kid. Spread this video around! The world needs it.

[@HALFBREEDMUGEN]

I'm doing the same.

[@ep6026]

As a sedentary 60 year old challenge accepted!

[@chrisdonovan8795]

@@ep6026 I'll be happy if you prove me wrong. I wrote my original comment ten years ago. Since then, I've developed severe bone spurs in one hip, but I'm trying to deal with it through stretching and exercise. Good luck to you.

[@ep6026]

@chrisdonovan8795 I was only kidding I'm not 60 I'm 39 but I know what you mean about starting later in life. To quote Pat McNamara "motion is lotion" , wise words for staying in shape during later years in life.

[@the9likesfemdom]

old school hard core

[@Reddragondiaries]

yup! exactly what he is

[@alfredpeters3994]

Those ab rollers are much tougher than they look.

[@Reddragondiaries]

I hope more people realize that!

[@petertomov5728]

+Red Dragon Diaries Well :D if they don't, tell them to go and try one :D On a different note... I think I really should get back to training... I have gotten all weak over the years.

[@munisai9693]

we realize ^^

[@khabibgg]

@@Reddragondiaries really hard...

[@ukere2211]

Judo helps a lot to keep a good shape! this Sensei is fantastic

[@Reddragondiaries]

Yes it does!

[@jzen1455]

Very true as long you don’t get severely injured along the way.

[@nde1083]

This is so inspiring. Love your channel!

[@atatkfighter]

I wish to be in that good of shape when I'm 64 years old.

[@blah979]

or when I'm 20

[@erichalverson8384]

Sand_Deep_Fighter work for it then

[@catchwrestler3532]

Train judo

[@elmalifico3708]

Catch Wrestler Wait, how about catch wrestling?

[@jeiteki]

Holy cow, I saw the other videos, but missed this one. Every one of these feats is amazing! Those forearm drills with the ropes and the bottles are wicked; his grips must be ridiculous.

[@Reddragondiaries]

he's a beast

[@rte148]

Astounding wrist and core strength. Just wow.

[@TobiasSample]

I'll be honest, when I saw the ab wheel I thought there was a wind up spring in it. When I bought one myself, I found out just how wrong I was.

[@Reddragondiaries]

+Tobias Sample lol he would kick me in the back if I used one of the spring loaded ones lol

[@Madalovin]

This is impressive, and congrats to him for getting recognized! I enjoy the content you share with us internet peeps. :)

[@Reddragondiaries]

Thank so much for letting me know. I've read his blog in the past.

[@Reddragondiaries]

You are absolutely right. It is easier to ride the emotional wave to get in shape or to try new exercise programs for 3-6 months. But 10,15,20 year commitments is the key. A lifetime is even better. not necessarily to live forever, but to give back to the sport and inspire the up and comers.

[@3Daver]

Such respect for this man - what an inspiration!

[@Reddragondiaries]

He really does. I'm always amazed at his appearance. He's helped convince me to never give up training.

[@kerryoke68]

Holy crap! Those leg lifts! That's is one amazing senior citizen. Proof that we can acquire muscle throughout our lives. He's truly an inspiration.

[@MaChao7]

I hope to be in this good shape and form in my later years. Really inspiring! Keep up the great work!

[@Somaliland-First]

Any progress yet if alive🙂

[@Reddragondiaries]

That's great to hear. Keep up the good work.

[@Reddragondiaries]

Still legendary!

This man is a lesson is discipline and dedication! Danke for sharing!

What an amazing guy! Excellent video.

[@anomalistic3046]

Much respect and inspiration!

[@msifu81h43]

My Idol ..God Bless this Man !

[@Reddragondiaries]

The amazing part of it all was that he had just woken from a nap and walked on the mat to do these things for me...total boss!

[@jonathanthompson592]

Is this guy a baki character??

[@ate7714]

😂

[@elmalifico3708]

The Master Attorney 007 given that this video took place 7 years ago this guy is more like Shibukawa.

[@elmalifico3708]

The Master Attorney 007 Yep, though I think he has a judo background. I recall Shibukawa saying that during his match against Biscuit Oliva

[@mywebnet]

My dear lord, that's good looking men! And he is 64???? Just stunning, how well he is fit and I bet he can really kick ass, I'm really jealous in good way! This pictures shows, that most today youth is just way to lazy. Very inspirational. Thanks for a video.

[@76kamikazi]

mywebnet that’s why sadly they all use a gun to fight, they are too fat and sorry to do any physical activity.

[@smolderingvirtue]

I love his teaching of throws, even though I do not speak Korean. You are very lucky to get to train with him.

[@lau1620]

What an inspiration, that's nothing short of amazing. Kudos

[@Reddragondiaries]

That's really awesome that you still keep with the training frequently. I agree about the body weight exercises. I think they are best for any combat sport like judo.

[@michaelkim8452]

Really impressed. I've done many different types of martial arts and in my experience, Judo had the most injuries. Getting to be 64 like that as a Judo practitioner is amazing!!!

[@Reddragondiaries]

Wow and wow. Thank you for letting me know. I used to train at ATT where Bobby Lashley trains now. How awesome!

[@JINSTERPEACE]

This is a true example of why it’s important to eat right from a young age to an adult and you keep exercising to be healthy.

[@AliT1710]

Amazing, age is no barrier!

[@peteben9635]

Incredible! Very good

[@Reddragondiaries]

Both. He is an example of true commitment

[@blacksupra001]

Red Dragon Diaries he really is this just goes to show once you go past 40 its not time to pack it up like so many people say to do so

[@UltimateAirbender]

[@bonilla1240]

Motivation for us all as we age 💪

[@marcelofernandez6049]

que admirable a su edad con tantas ganas es un ejemplo de vida mis respetos sensei

[@HaneenIAdam]

Wow! speechless.

[@Reddragondiaries]

I agree. He'sa truly unique individual

[@billyforkner6198]

Very impressive......what a stud

[@ck552]

There's no secret here, he's a lifelong athlete. Some people train hard in their youth, but once they hit middle age and their body doesn't respond the way it used to, they throw in the towel and stop training, or at least take the intensity down several notches. The lesson here is to never stop pushing, never stop striving.

[@matroshka007]

impressive and inspiring

[@Reddragondiaries]

Yes - this is my instructor here in Korea. Lucky me!

[@mihaylovic1]

respect Master!

[@adamzaar8201]

wow amazing 😊

[@user-rs5jb5fz4y]

wow!! He is body perfact !

[@TheRefusedStoney]

Very cool. I'd like to see more videos featuring him lol

[@JoachimderZweite]

What an inspiration - this is why the Koreans are so good a judo. Contests are won in the will. I wish I were like this sensei. I bow low with respect.

[@TheGeneralMod]

I feel inspired to finally take gym more serious, this guy is truly a master.

[@maverick8228]

Respect !!!!

[@bruhbagul7806]

Ofc this is attainable for a person who practiced a discipline. What is more fascinating is for someone 75 years old and above to be very athletic.

[@Reddragondiaries]

He's your picture perfect example of gnarled up finger, toes and joints. His knee pops in and out of joint just by moving it with his hand. The truly amazing part is that he can do these things cold at any time whenever asked to. Unreal!

[@hurbit123]

Hi there, I am 50 and was into international competition judo for many years, when I was in my twenties. Since then the my (japanese style= only bodyweight) judo conditioning accompanied me since. Even if for one or another reason you can't do real Judo training anymore, with 'street workout' type of calisthenic exercises you will remain very strong and explosive and pretty injury proof. All kind of pull ups, bar dips, burpees,etc.. every day. Age 25 my fighting weight class was 72 kg. Still is.

[@MHMOVEMENT]

so great...i´m aiming to have also a kind of this fitness when im at higher age :)

[@MeliorIlle]

Wish I had a dojo and senseis like this where I live. Extremely impressive.

[@petertomov5728]

+MeliorIlle Actually... you don't need a dojo as long as you have the willpower to stick to your training. Build a base without any weights for at least 6-10 months and then just keep going on :D

[@MeliorIlle]

Peter Tomov I would still have no one to teach me elite Judo.

[@petertomov5728]

MeliorIlle That is true. But my original point stands: To create basic muscle mass one needs for proper training it takes a few months [2-8 depending on your muscle type ] of training with your own body. There are especially some exercises even most people who go to the gym ignore and that causes sever problems later. E.g.: exercises for M.sacrospinalis Trust me, it's a lot better to train techniques, if you have the proper basis. And as a person who went from rigorous exercising to not exercising rather abruptly about 10 years ago, I can tell you, that the aches, that come from not having properly taken care of the muscle parties that keep a human standing upright ... are rather nasty. In the past few months I've been trying to get back into at least some training routine, but it's a lot more difficult, than I remember it to be :D On the other hand, I know it's worth it... so hopefully I can stick to it ^_^

[@MeliorIlle]

Peter Tomov Who is referring to muscle mass? The man in the video is a Judoka. I'm 6'3 245 pounds lol.

[@petertomov5728]

MeliorIlle Ok, I obviously mistook you for a different user T_T I apologize.

[@mrKozmoz]

This guy is awesome, AND looks so much like my Quajanim, Ko Am Mu Do, Jin Chung, totally amazing person. The amount of strength these dedicated people have is insane.

[@Phan-Xu]

Now he’s 76 years old!

[@75duster]

wow very inpresive 64 amazing

[@Reddragondiaries]

I'm one of the lucky ones. He is an inspiration.

[@beatnix99]

He's a beast.. I hope to be that fit when I'm 64. :)

[@Wise2you]

Why the hell would anyone give this a thumbs down??? Truly amazing. I wonder who drank the soju? haha

[@MantisMonk]

Amazing...BTW, I love soju!

[@davidjeyjilek4079]

amzing respect

[@cobrakingkai]

Its working! This video is spreading around all the forums because of his age and thats how I found out about it!

[@9072aaa]

oh my ! wow !

[@hb51015]

Damn, his physique is impressive in it of itself, but more so are the exercises that he's performing in the video. So nice to see this!

[@osotogari2]

I hope at 64 I can move like this man.

[@johnconnors6412]

Hard to believe he is past mid forties

[@ShaolinShadow3]

I could use this kind of judo training. I took tae kwon do but I always want to try this!

[@Reddragondiaries]

Oh of course. I don't think he'd be able to do these things at his age otherwise. Just a lifetime of extreme dedication.

[@TheProcrastinator85]

are you sure he is 64!! he is amazing!
