The things I'm most worried about in combat sports is the potential CTE and internal bleeding/punctured lungs.
Probably legit concerns. I like body conditioning because it makes serious injuries less likely.
I think that's a lot of peoples fear in combat sports. Work on defense often, build muscle (as a layer of protection), do the conditioning, and also work on avoiding shots! They can't cause internal bleeding if they can't touch you. At least that's what I do and that's my thinking. You're gonna get hit but if you're aware of your opponents strengths and your weak points (ex. liver where conditioning and muscle doesn't matter) than I think you'll probably be a lot safer. Head movement to avoid head shots. Also the better your conditioning the better you can defend yourself in the late rounds when your opponent potentially gets tired. Long winded reply haha but it's something I think about too being early in my career.
Simple solution: don't get hit.
@@PULAG😱😱😱OH MY GOD DUDE😮. If ONLY I would have thought of that EARLIER 😧
Conditioning isn't just about being tough, but about knowing what hits feel like and how to develop the ability to roll with the strikes to reduce their impact. A pool stick has to hit the ball dead on or it just spins and goes nowhere.
Bro it’s like you read minds this is perfect timing
Glad to hear it 👍
I would love to see you work together with the modern martial artist on a breakdown of a fight you have done, he breaks down the opponents moves and you break down your own.
Could be epic!
Awesome video. Thank you coach.
Always informative. Thanks for the tips.
Thanks Gabriel... many thanks brother
Thanks coach! I need this ! Awesome you included Benjamin in this video!
Yeah its something ppl need to know it's a classic condition or the 101 simple when i train i put my elbows to cover my face then someone start bouncing and throw a tires in my elbow or hit me with a stick to my elbow or my legs
Hehe. Awesome video guys 👌
I’m loving the new Benja + Gabriel combo with these vids. What a lucky young dude tbh, but you can easily tell he deserves it too 🙏
Thanks! 😃
We did filmed 3 videos together and it was fun having someone to work with.
I'm going to try and do more episodes with an assistant.
@@GabrielVargaOfficial definitely man, this guy’s great. He’s gonna go far, you can tell...he even half-smiled in this one. Haha. The guy’s more focused than YOU even champ!! 😆👏
You could even bring in different students depending on their strengths, and weaknesses...would be extra helpful to everyone learning your Gabriel-Do style at home sir 🙏
Awesome! I think I was one of the people who asked for this video. Does anyone know what actually happens when you “condition” the body? Are you like firming up the skin, making the muscles more dense, building scar tissue, or just desensitizing yourself and increasing your pain tolerance? Like what’s actually happening on a biological level?
PS: Is practicing checking/blocking round kicks with your shin (without you or your partner wearing shin guards) a good strategy? Or not necessary?
I'm honestly not sure what the exact science is. My wife says it could be nervous system desensitizing plus scar tissue build up.
For shin conditioning I like kicking pads or bags. I don't do sparring without shin pads.
@@GabrielVargaOfficial Thank you! 🙏
You can either have a diamond chin or don't but body conditioning is a must-have for every fighters out there. For me, I like body conditioning in the sense that I feel confident I can absorb enough damage and be able to counter on my own
I personally will take low kick conditioning anyway over body conditioning. I know it’s important.
But it suck and makes me wanna fight someone after doing it. And then die the next day.
100k congrats
Thank you so much 😀
Hi gabriel, love your content, Could you please put the impromptu workouts into their own playlist pretty please? THANK YOU
I can imagine Gabriel is pretty busy,
so just also wanted to throw it out there
that there is also the option to create your own playlist on your account and save all of the impromptu workouts.
My brother always did Martial art (just play) on my back and its hard as a rock now
gabriel make a episode on hiraki akimoto that guy is something plzzz make it
Thanks gabe
This is a topic i was interested in
But when i search this thing up so much sciency stuff comes
Thnx for uploading a guide on conditioning because there is a lot of potential of other big ytbers to tell u do some very extreme stuff and make their subs actually do them
If I don’t have a partner to help with shoulder conditioning can’t I just use the stick or is that to harsh?
*laughs in Kyokushin*
Haha. No kidding. Those guys are monsters.
I used to train with guys who transitioned from full contact into kickboxing.
Their conditioning was off the charts.
But you don't condition your head right? I saw a couple of TH-cam videos the coach head kick his fighter and knocked him out cold. That's messed up
Definetly not yet xD
Have you already been doing extra body conditioning?
Do you think it's necessary?
@RED CHUCKS Yeah. It's scary seeing someone get hit and realize it's not hurting them.
Then why wonder boy Thompson condition his shin.
Benjamin is your son?
No. He's one of my students from my youth martial arts program.
@@GabrielVargaOfficial kkkk sorry
@@betoj3161what are you sorry for?
From years of experience in limbing and bucking hardwood trees, I have to say I think conditioning for hits is mental, not physical. A the very least if springy hardwood branches are hitting you in the shins, yeah you can learn to ignore the pain and keep on working to the point where being bruised and bloody doesn't slow you down in the least, but it DOES NOT MAKE YOUR SHINS TOUGHER. It just does damage. Do it enough, and the damage becomes permanent. I recommend getting shinguards before it reaches that point. Mental toughness is valuable, and worth training for, but design your training so that as much as possible you're getting just the mental toughness, and not physical damage that over time accumulates and takes a toll.
Lol! That is SO genuine and well-intended bro. 🙏
...it’s also COMPLETELY WRONG. You can safely condition virtually EVERY part of your body (a few exceptions (obvs 🙈)), as long as you’re sensible about power...and trust the person conditioning you.
You’re right though: the mental side is SUPER important...probably more than physical, just. But if you don’t condition yourself REGULARLY for the shock of being struck pretty hard, and in areas you’ve NEVER experienced pain before (such as inner thigh), then? You’ll simply buckle...probably from a single well-placed low-kick even. 🤷♂️
Physical: 45%
Mental: 55%
So, pal, you ready to get in the ring at 55% against a guy who’s 100% wanting to hurt you, and knock you TF out ideally? 🤔
