Excellent this, used to lift with my dad when I was younger, your old man reminds me of him. He's passed now but this made the memories all come back. Thanks.
Your dad is very strong for his age and you clearly have the strength genes. Also very impressive give your body weight. As a kiwi I was gutted you beat my boy Dan Hooker. However, you show great humility and respect. I’m now a fan and will continue to follow your very promising career. Subscribed 🙌
This is why Allen's winning! A lot of fighters don't appreciate how important it is to be strong and athletic! Strength training is essential for a high level athlete
Spending time on skills gives more return than lifing weights. After a couple of years lifting you don't see as much improvement and it's better to focus on skill
@@canismajoris6733 true, lifting is great to do for a couple years to build newbie gains then you really plateau and the rest of your training should be prehab/rehab, correcting imbalances and keeping your strength, speed and muscular endurance. Plus consistently lifting for years and years will increase bone density and tendon and ligament strength.
Judging by these videos with your old man you can see just how much of an inspiration he's been to you, not just with his strength, knowledge and work ethic but his honesty and humility. And in my very humble opinion those qualities shine through in you and your fighting career so far. As a 26 year old nobody from South Wales who likes to train MMA at a very novice level (at best) you truly are an inspiration to myself, and yet another British fighter that doesn't get half of the attention and commendation that he deserves from his home country. Big love and all the best on your journey to that shiny gold championship belt.💪🏼
Hey mate, maybe one day you'll have a lad that'll come along to the gym and do big things and blow you away, like youre doing in front of your dad's eyes. Great to see it man, I'm 36 my old man's been gone a few years, he never lifted but he worked on farms and had that old man strength. Enjoy these years mate! Trains gonna be stopping at the title shot express, best of luck 👍
Great vid with your dad Arnold , me and my son Train together it’s a great bond & motivation for me , I’ll soon be turning the big 60, but feel like a 40 year old
A collab with other UK fighters eventually would be cool. Jack Shore, Paddy Pimblett, Tom Aspinall, Leon Edwards, Darren Till etc. Bisping is probably the easiest to get in touch with I'd imagine and he'd probably hype you up and give you some viewer traction.
Ur dad is so cool, wish i had a father figure like that in my life. Would love to see jake on ere soon. Keep up the work... Arnold future champ Allen!!! Love how normal u all r.
Great vid mate, enjoy training with my old man as well! The old school powerlifters and strongmen have a lot of knowledge! Best of luck in your up coming fight 🏴💪
This is a really wholesome video mate, I mean what could be more motivating than training with your dad. I can fell the pump from this side of the screen. Looking forward to your win this Saturday. Gretings from Istanbul.
Bro your dedication and focus even when weight lifting is exactly what keeps you as the most dangerous prospect in that featherweight division right now! A very serious guy and I hope you stay focused and destroy any competition that comes your way.
I remember years back in oaks. I was doing deadlifts. Spat my asshole doing a 190kg for a shaky 1. Pacer came in and told me not to worry about taking the weight off and just smashed a few out like it was nothing. The man is a beast. Runs in the family for sure
Great to see father and son spending time together. Pacer seems like an round tough guy eg fighting and strong man. But you have to appreciate how strong Brian Shaw etc are
Inspiring to see your Dads passion for lifting. 200kg at your weight is impressive. Looking at open powerliftings rankings, you'd be competitive if you entered into competition
How old is your dad? Proper unit he is. If you are taking requests for videos I would love to see you break down one of your fights while watching along with it. Talking about training and tactics
You ever thought about doing a collab with the Stoltman brothers? You all seem like good guys and it would be mutually beneficial, plus the strongman connection. Great fight the other day btw mate 👍
@@ArnoldALMIGHTY YOU are DA Man! I ❤ Dan Hooker....he seems like good human being! But I ADMIRE your work ethic! U WILL BE CHAMPION SOMEDAY..U JUST HAVE 2 ACCEPT IT! U CAN & WILL MANIFEST YOUR OWN DESTINY!
Saw you on highlights for ufc on your undefeated streak and once i saw your movement patterns and well rounded jiujitsu, striking, and wrestling with forward pressure, i knew that you will be UK next champ. Especially after how you dismantled hooker. Big fan now keep up the hustle👊💪
Absolutely love seeing the relationship you have with your father, and the respect you have for his knowledge! Iv always wanted this type of relationship with my father! Unfortunately, he chose to be a sperm donor rather than a father! Cherish these moments my brother as I know you do!
This is like me and my boys. They grew up in the gym with me. Sadly we live in different parts of the country now but lifting will always be the first topic of conversation between us.
When your next fight gets booked, ask bisping if you can be on his youtube channel. People should know you. Moderate+ MMA fans hear/know about all top 5 or 6 guys In 145, 155, 170 and 185 but you are never mentioned. You need need to get your name out there and get talked about more.
Leon Edwards is a master technician and a beast too don't forget. Guy is elite. Pretty boring for casual fans I know, but if you know what you're looking at, Edward's is top level. He's been pushed to the side by the UFC too though, isn't fair. But that life hey. Let's hope Arnold gets more exposure and gets some decent fights this year or next. Lightweight is where it's at though at the minute. People are loving that division.
@@RicStaR2410 don’t see edwards getting past usman though he’s already in his thirties Arnold and aspinall are only just entering their primes edwards already near the middle to the end of hsi
Bro you are body goals, chiseled. No homo. You're deadlifting good weight for your size, easily around 2.5 times your weight. Cool to see how a professional athlete lives his daily life and how you take the time reply to people. Id say 1 more good fight and you should get a title shot. Gluck champ
Excellent this, used to lift with my dad when I was younger, your old man reminds me of him. He's passed now but this made the memories all come back. Thanks.
Thanks mate, sorry to hear that 🙏 there's nothing like training with your old man, gives you extra strength for sure
Cheers to your Dad my friend. ✊
Love the relationship you guys have .
I have zero relationship with my father and he is an ice addict .
Keep up the good content mate
Wow I was thinking the exact same rip to your dad
Big love to your memories. I love fixing bits on the car with my old man and lifting at his place.
Looooooool big pace seems like he's got never ending stories about his younger days
He does 😂 but I swear some of them are movie plots
@@ArnoldALMIGHTY Pacer, Arnold and Jake Q&A next vid? 👀
Your dad is very strong for his age and you clearly have the strength genes. Also very impressive give your body weight. As a kiwi I was gutted you beat my boy Dan Hooker. However, you show great humility and respect. I’m now a fan and will continue to follow your very promising career. Subscribed 🙌
“You’re like your brother, you’re a freak” 😂
You and you’re old man are funny as fuck! Loving the videos mate, keep up the great work! 👍🏼
Thank you 🙏 haha my brother is a freak athlete
@@ArnoldALMIGHTY He is a strong man too 💪
This is why Allen's winning! A lot of fighters don't appreciate how important it is to be strong and athletic!
Strength training is essential for a high level athlete
That’s how u get power get stronger
Yep, strength also protects the joints, fixes muscle imbalances, every athlete should have a strength training routine.

That's impressive as fuck that you're a pro fighter and can deadlift 3x your fighting weight...
You are lucky to have such great dad!
I know mate!

That would be too sick!!

Superb to see you recover and train Arnold! Keep it up champ!
Cheers mate 👊🏼
Great video and great motivation for my workout today. Pacer still gots it. What a beast. Great strength coach. Keep them coming

Thanks mate appreciate the support
3:53 This is genius lol. For years I've been straining myself to load the bar for deadlifts. I've never seen this method
ahaha same!!! so simple yet cant believe I never seen it done.

Great work out my man 👍 You and your dad are beast's! Really looking forward to seeing you back in the ring soon! Joe from Norwich England 👍
Thanks alot mate, shouldn't be too long

For you to get anywhere near big Pace is awesome Arnie, reckon the Allen family should bottle those genes and sell them brother 👌👊💪
I think the genes he has are bottled 😅
@@ArnoldALMIGHTY 😂😂😂 Lookin strong there though champ 👍

The only way
@@ArnoldALMIGHTY YOU are DA Man! I ❤ Dan Hooker....he seems like good human being! But I ADMIRE your work ethic! U WILL BE CHAMPION SOMEDAY..U JUST HAVE 2 ACCEPT IT! U CAN & WILL MANIFEST YOUR OWN DESTINY!
Thats that coach saying dont get any higher !! Preventing injuries and to know when to stop when they train !
12:16 lol
Saw you on highlights for ufc on your undefeated streak and once i saw your movement patterns and well rounded jiujitsu, striking, and wrestling with forward pressure, i knew that you will be UK next champ. Especially after how you dismantled hooker. Big fan now keep up the hustle👊💪
Much respect mate thank you
Lets go arnold u smashed it bro
Great vid , powerful Dad wow!! Billy Boy the 'Apprentice' and topless, whats not to love !
Cheers mate
What a legend of a dad
🙏🏻🙏🏻
Arnold is very strong for a 145er some middle weights can’t deadlift that much impressive shit
I’d be interested to see just how many in the UFC could. Probably not many lol.
When are you fighting next geez? You’re the most interesting in the rankings IMO and there’s so many matchups for you that are intriguing.
Will have an announcement shortly mate
You are the face of the new ufc 2 mobile game❤️ you're super strong there, just how I want to see you in your upcoming fight! LFG!
Thank you 🙏
this is my idea of father & son bonding
Absolutely love seeing the relationship you have with your father, and the respect you have for his knowledge! Iv always wanted this type of relationship with my father! Unfortunately, he chose to be a sperm donor rather than a father! Cherish these moments my brother as I know you do!
Thank you man and I'm sorry to hear that bro!
Keep these training videos coming, mate!
I will do mate
What a great W on the weekend.. I am a fan now Champ💯
Thanks mate
Beasts on tour…great vid..thx
Holy moly, your old man must be close to 60 and pulling weight young men struggle with.
Yeh he's still got some solid lifts
This is like me and my boys. They grew up in the gym with me. Sadly we live in different parts of the country now but lifting will always be the first topic of conversation between us.
That's a shame, but theres no better bonding then doing some heavy lifts together
Your dad looks like an absolute bruiser but comes across like such a gent!
Great video mate! Looking forward to your next fight!
Cheers bud 👊🏼
Little tip with the little weight to add weight to the barbell …. Thanks 🙏 Nice one ☝️

I shit my pants and pulled my back out just watching.
Such a cool dude just gained a fan..
This is so awesome.
what was your bodyweight in this video mate, 200+ kg for a featerweight is damn impressive.
Cheers mate I was about 75kg here
Dude even some middleweights and Light heavyweights they struggle to lift that much weight and yet ur a featherweight das crazy damn !
Haha thanks man I reckon I'll get those numbers up in a few weeks
This definitely needs to be made to a little series!
May do another soon when I heal up
@@ArnoldALMIGHTY would definitely grow the channel
This is cool. Dad is a beast!

dont think they focus on deads in camp though-but that will make him strong af
Your Dad's a beast
For a non-strength specific athlete to be deadlifting x3’ish bodyweight, is nothing short of amazing.
Thank you mate!, think there's a bit more to be had
Future UFC champ right here
🙏🙏🙏
