Damn, Daijon is looking like he has been hitting strides and really coming into his own as not just a fighter but a man. You can visibly see the changes in his own self-confidence from the videos that I remember seeing of him from way back when. You have done a great job with him for sure.
How are some of your other guys like Daijon and Bandito doing Sin? Any of them ready to turn pro in the near future? Or any new guys that you've taken on recently that are showing a lot of early potential?
Man, what does it matter? Alot of 'Health professionals' and 'bro scientists' say that putting emphasis on the eccentric contraction of a movement builds more muscle mass and strength or whatever, but really just add more weight to the bar if you want results. Time under tension doesn't matter...
BBB Deadlift and OHP on the same day? How are you finding that? I am by no means an expert, but I would suggest picking which ever one of the two you feel is lagging the most and then just doing the BBB sets for that one while just keeping the other one on basic 5/3/1 or you could alternate the...
Yes. I noticed how much more stable he was in comparison to in the first fight, when he was put on his ass because Pac caught him backing straight up with his weight 'up' and the second fight, where Marquez was leaning too far forward like you stated in that Tile exercise thread. I liked how Pac...
Are you saying that when a guy comes in you drag that lead foot back and turn southpaw? Next time you do that when a guy is coming in, throw a left round kick from your southpaw stance. Create that little bit of distance and as he comes in to find you, WOP!
Anyway, take a look at this...
I might take a life lesson from my dad here and learn from other's mistakes so I don't have to make them. I questioned my coach because our gym is very much centered on using a tight high guard and absorbing punches on the arms then attacking when our opponent finishes attacking. I don't find...
Don't know why I am asking here because it is a little off-topic, but I have a question that I don't think really warrants its own thread. Sinister, do you think that ducking and rolling punches, ala traditional Philly shell style can be utilised in muay thai with the added threat of knees and...
I need a pair of shoes to squat in...desperately. I can't handle squatting on plates another set longer...I need a good pair of weightlifting shoes with an elevated heel so that I can actually squat for depth. At the moment I'm thinking grabbing a pair of Rogue Do-Wins, but I've read that their...
Now I see why B-Hop has been able to land that right hand so consistently, even on younger and faster guys. It's kind of ironic to see how much Marquez can drift over that lead foot at times, considering that a big part of his game is making guys pay for doing that. I've kind of realised now...
Hey guys, I've been noticing a bit lately that during sparring I often tend to zone out a bit during, if you know what I mean. I don't focus as much as I should. I have a hard time reading my opponent and usually what ends up happening is I just swing without much intelligence. Not that I brawl...
I did what dinpappa recommended when I deadlifted the other day and it felt a lot stronger. I just positioned the bar over my mid-foot and didn't pay any attention to where it was in relation to my shins, and just focused on driving my heels into the floor and pulling my back as I came up. Felt...
Yup, now I see. I think that kind of resembles what my pull looks like, or at least that's what it feels like. My hips are too damn high. Thanks for the input guys, I'll experiment tomorrow and see how I go.
Ah, I think I understand what you're saying. So you mean position the bar over my center of gravity like TheeFaulted said and then drop into position and pull? I don't know if I've been rolling the bar to my shins before the pull, I'll have to look out for it tomorrow, but I think I catch your...
