I'm soo jealous of his training. Makes me want to add some lol but will not.
<a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4sDMQyqNZi4" target="_blank">http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4sDMQyqNZi4</a>

really nice vid, but, the intro has me suspect. so he does all of that stuff, then it comes down to SMFR? Instead, maybe he did too much "nonsense"? Maybe doing lots of that stuff with the de-oxygenation mask was completely useless?

I was actually going to create a thread a few weeks ago titled "There are too many damn exercises".

I've gone from a small set of exercise, to lots of different exercises, to a small set of exercises, to a very small set of exercises. Most people want to do cool fun things, or fun looking things, hard fun things, hard weird things .. how much of this is actually needed & how do you gauge the effectiveness of something when you have so much variety?

no idea of Blake's actual training & how it was composed, but it seems like we've been in a phase where monotony is no longer tolerated. We're also in a phase where "different stuff" gets more attention, more likes, more views, more respect etc: it's alot easier to do that with videos like you posted above.

I think the biggest "turning point" for me, was watching the *infestation* of "s&c coaches" in fight sports. That's what really started to really make me cringe. I watched it in person at ATT (American Top Team), I watched it on tv/online such as Brandon Rios doing a bunch of fancy lameness.. Instead of spending that time actually working on a counter, throwing more punches, working skill etc, these s&c coaches got fighters doing lame footwork drills on an agility latter then doing a few hops. IMHO, completely useless.. That kind of coaching permeates everything now.

When I did my second internship at Memorial Fitness/Rehab, there was this functional trainer there. Guy was "brilliant", knew his shit. Knew how everything fit together, anatomically/kinesiology/biomechanically. He was so impressive to most people. He's a good dude, but, the training I saw him provide athletes/elderly/out of shape people was just pure BS. He knew too much for his own good & carved out a niche, offering up sub-par training to individuals of all fitness/athletic levels.

I guess i'm just annoyed with the exercise variety out there. I'm subscribed to a few S&C IG's and every other day they are doing a new exercise, promoting some new ground breaking ISOMETRIC PAP lameness.

It's just interesting how some people approach training so scientifically, and can't coach/improve someone for shit. It's science right? All we have to do is <insert program here> because it worked before, and tweak a few variables. I think "the art" mixed with "some science" is far more effective. An example of "the art" is what I mentioned above, some seasoned boxing coach / track coach knowing pretty much what to do to get their athlete at their peak & address weaknesses for a specific event, who rely less on science & more on experience, instead of letting some S&C coach come in and try to act like a "human mechanic" and just screw everything up.

A really good example of that also, is "RJ" from way back. Dude was science to the max, seemed to ignore alot of people who had more "experience" (on elite track/charlie francis forum, db hammer forum etc) which contradicted things he'd learned in supertraining & evosport etc. Not to talk shit on him, but that's just potentially a good example. Not sure what happened to him, would be nuts if he's an olympic hopeful now or something, that'd be pure wreckage for me. lmfao. Searched him and found his book: http://xlathlete.com/xl/events/engineering-an-athlete.pdf .. it was awesome that he wrote a book but come on.. It's probably an amazing read, would probably derail my training completely and have me doing all kinds of crazy isometric awesomeness. On the other hand, it's probably poisonous. Stuff like that, without the proper experience, can fuck your brain up. However, if you believe in a training ideology so much, that's a very important thing. So believing in your training, no matter how mediocre or useless, is absolutely essential & can still improve performance. That belief coupled with brutal effort, can unlock things even if the training makes no sense - as long as you're still getting in enough of the event you're training for. If some extraordinary belief in sub-par training can unlock more confidence mentally & drive physically, that can definitely improve race/competition efforts & such. S&C is weird.

dno.. been thinking about stuff like that for a while now.

end tangent/rant. :D

I didn't really listen to what the guy was saying and I don't think all that training is his entire training but it's bits of different training he did or does. I was seeing the different variety exercises he does, just damn.

Nice, thanks for that. I have also been thinking about this also. There are so many damn exercises that are available, some fancier than others and you can see where would get it from, but there is something about training that is a little more complex than just training that movement loaded like the thing blake does from kneeling to jumping up to squat position they look nice and everything, but they really confuse people who want to train and they see all these workouts and it just destroys them mentally with too much material me included thinking wow I do a little and they have all these varieties I am so far behind, but after reading what you wrote, this is all just unnecessary, complex is not better simplicity is.

I can't rant on any more don't have more knowledge to add lol. But good points.

I think this is the footage paulie released in response to connor releasing footage of knocking malignaggi out. He later on says that it was all staged and people actually fell for this footage. lol funny video. One thing I can't stand is malignaggi keep saying 'suckers' get over it.

Mayweather vs mcgregor smashes the may-pac ppv by 2 million ppv buys. I have mixed emotions about this, disappointing to see that a fight lopsided/onesided like this would generate that many interest but then I realize that it's not a boxing match it's a fight which we all know mayweather would win, so it's more of a exhibition, wwe wrestlemania, circus show fight to entertain the people rather than the best fight the best and therefore you attract non boxing fans because it's a theatrical fight on mayweather's part and then a chance for mcgregor to try and upset it.

So it is what it is a theatrical exhibition fight to entertain the masses.

Mayweather vs mcgregor was promoted to be an exciting entertaining exhibition match, which drew in record breaking numbers and the main reason being conor who is a major drawing power to bring people then you have mayweather who is has a very big major drawing power and the combination of these two and the excellent/smart way they promoted this fight that the whole world was talking about it, even non boxing fans were talking about was the secret to the success. Also mayweather saying he will come forward and guaranteed a knockout increases the chance of the success of this fight in terms of money generated and viewers.

With regards to canelo vs golovkin I am skeptical about the promotion being as good, tmt and conor and ufc promoters do a heck of a job, compared to golden boy and k2 promotions. Also the drawing power of these 2, canelo has a large mexican based drawing power and also some of the boxing enthusiasts and fans of canelo and with golovkin not more of a draw than canelo but can bring in the fans and the boxing enthusiast, but because they are restricted to being known to the boxing world and maybe some more outside, I really doubt it will do as well even the pac-may fight, even though they promise more action I just really doubt it will do as good as mayweather vs canelo. Oscar's plan to marinate and let it wait like may-pac was really a rubbish idea and would never work, as the may-pac left a bad taste and cannot wait much longer for other fights.

Fight success depend a lot on the ppv success in terms of viewers and in that way I hope it does well but the mcgregor vs mayweather may have drained them or maybe I am wrong, I hope I am.

I wish it does do record breaking numbers but I am very skeptical but I can be sure of one thing, a great fight.

Comment
It seems with the jump squats, I was really doing a counter movement jump, which is similar to the jump squats but instead after you jump you land standing rather than going back down into the squat upon landing. Seems like I need to do the proper next time I do it. The half squats felt wierd because I forgot to stretch my hips like I normally, but after 1 set, the second and third set felt comfortable like normal. My back always seems to have this small pains in random points making me self conscious but I ignore it because the pain is just very small and probably fatigue from the deadlifts, squats don't really give me any back problems.

Just like the lawsuits that were filed because of the may - pac ppv, same is happening with may-connor but for the failing of showtime to broadcast the fight properly because of the crashed servers maybe that floyd said that happened.

http://www.boxingscene.com/mayweather-mcgregor-showtime-sued-over-failed-stream--119938

Nearly 3 million watched via illegal streams.
http://www.boxingscene.com/mayweather-vs-mcgregor-nearly-3-million-watch-illegal-streams--119939

And also this reminds me in the 9th round when mcgregor hit mayweather that made mayweather hold onto his stomach supposedly, they actually thought that was a legal blow, I saw it and it was low. lol at this article. I doubt mcgregor would have finished mayweather if the ref let him continue. Also what does mcgregor do as he supposedly hurts him and has him against the ropes slightly leaning he goes to his sides and holds him like wtf how is that capitalizing on the damage you just did lol.



Then this is how connor capitalizes on seeing mayweather hurt and backed against the ropes.

Pistol squats barefoot is actually easier than you think, you will see quick progress. feet and the fingers help stabilize a lot more than shoes.
A good skill indeed.

andddddd back to reality.

A real mega fight is brewing… For boxing fans, this is a serious & long anticipated fight. Golovkin has the size & power advantage, and serious boxing skill. Canelo has serious power, but far more experience & IMHO more boxing skill than GGG. Both fighters have incredible heart & legit chins. Can’t wait. For MMA fans who aren’t huge boxing fans, this is probably a fight you’ll want to watch. It’s going to be a war fought at pretty much the highest level of boxing skill.

<a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QrdGoqt_Wv4" target="_blank">http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QrdGoqt_Wv4</a>

CANELO VS GGG. WAR.

Nice, I didn't know they aired the 24/7 episodes yet. They really help in hyping the fight and showing you where the fighters are.

didn't read yet, but headline caught attention:

http://www.telegraph.co.uk/boxing/2017/08/27/floyd-mayweather-attempted-bet-400000-beating-conor-mcgregor/

Quote
Floyd tried to bet $400,000 that he would win the fight in the Middle of the 10th round by knockout.

The hard punch on connor is the one where floyd basically ate connors jab as it molded into his mouth and slipped to the side and floyd returns and that boop punch from connor just touching floyd's nose lol.

if you see that slick video link it's funny you see connor's experience in boxing instead of moving to the other side like other boxers would he actually runs in that direction body facing the direction he is moving then gets caught lol.

also floyd mentioned in the interview that he tried to bet $400,000 on himself but they didn't accept it as they thought he is probably fixing the fight so that he wins, so he told his fried to do it for him lol.
