The women in the video are hot!
I believe including these in your repertoire are very important to learning how to put your whole body into anything you are doing including martial arts.
There are a lot of guys here who advocate powerlifting as your main form of resistance training. It would be interesting to see how many of these body weight guys can powerlifting and how many power lifters can do the stuff in this video. I believe more of the people on this video can powerlift than vica-versa.
I think they’re all idiots for standing around and getting sun burn.
how about the time he trained stallone for rocky 3 and got his fat percentages so low stallone would forget where he parked his car and be found hours later wondering around the car park , he would be that carb deplenished
Are these guys the exception rather than the rule? I personally don’t know anyone that big who can move that fast. Then there is the question of how many of these guys are free of performance enhancers.

Elite level athletes, regardless of the sport, are never the norm.
That said, that strength training protocols like power power lifting and Olympic lifts ARE used by the elite in virtually every sport nowadays speaks volumes.
We need to compare apples with apples and oranges with oranges and just as you do NOT take a gymnast and show how little he can bench press, you don’t take a power lifter and show that the can’t do an iron cross.
Different activities need different strength training protocols and different stages of the athletes development.
Ronnie Coleman, one of the biggest and most successful BB ever can do the splits without any effort, Olympic weight lifters are amongst some of the most flexible athletes around ( outside those that train exclusively for flexibility), all that means is that those two very different strength protocols ( BB and OL) do NOT hinder flexibility.
When I did rehab on my shoulder, part of it was doing push ups on those swiss balls. I had never done a push up on one, ever.
First time I did it I did 8 before I lost balance, next time I did 15 and then 25.
