Had my first Muai Thai class last week, booked two more for this week. Thank you for inspiring me to get off my ass and start training martial arts, mate. I feel so much better about myself already.
Go fot it mate. Muay Thai is the best martial art!
@@tvojamama4888 boxing definitely is
@@tvojamama4888 how
@@rasheemthebestfirstone3274 kicks are fun
@@rasheemthebestfirstone3274 It's just far better than boxing because you also have kicks, elbows, knees and throws
I agree but that small lean boxer or any other martial artist can throw hands pretty quick and in many occasions can smack up a big bulked up guy
No
Yeah but to people who don't know you you'd look like a skinny twerp
Obviously someone with boxing skills is more likely to win against someone without boxing skills :D But if both have boxing skills, the heavier fighter is more likely to win (that's why weight classes exist).
The point of this video was to explain how you can progress in both, boxing skills and weight (muscle mass)...
Not in the streets though small boxer gonna be outwrestled super easily.Hes not gonna be throwing hands quick when he is on bottom position with a heavier guy on top.I dont agree that boxing is the best self defence martial art.Its a good choice but the best is definately MMA or for pure striking its Muay Thai.For 1 on 1 fights the best option is wrestling/BJJ/Judo/Sambo, its safer to grapple and get where your oponent can not produce kinetic force to hurt you because in striking if you are a better striker your oponent still has a chance to win even if its slim but in grapling the better grapler wins 100% of the time.
@@Reypstraptor4269 yeah. I think lifting weights is necessary before you start fighting. I am 3 years and a half into lifting, got pretty strong and never sparred in my life, I just punched the bag 10minutes for 3 days a week for a few months and when a boxer that was 20lbs lighter than me challenged me to a sparring he got his ass whooped because his punches were too weak and I just hit him with some jabs and light straights until he realized that I'm superior. If we were in a street fight and went juggernaut mode on him he could've died. So be careful out there, small fighters, embrace the bulk before getting into trouble.
This video is literally what I was looking for the past 5 years, doing God's work Jack, appreciate you ❤️💪🦍
I was looking for something like this too man, i’m so happy right now
For God so loved the world that he gave his one and only Son, that whoever believes in him shall not perish but have eternal life John 3 16.’ ,
you should read the book "tactical barbell", you'll find more in depth content on balancing lifting and sports
Another important thing is to be careful how much mental energy you waste along the day and try to be as efficient as posible
That’s a very underrated aspect people don’t consider.
Whats an example for that?
@@mike90susanoo84stress at the job, overthinking, Problems in realationship, family, even stupid traffic when u getting angry etc. All that burn your fuel.
Wow that's a good point especially if you're reading martial arts books. I got a few, and they can usually be completed pretty easily if it's a principle book and not a move/drill book.
Anyway, finishing a book in a day takes true, invested interest, and you also need just that mental sharpness. For me, it's hard to garner, but I forget to consider that the brain burns calories too 😅.
Timing of this actually couldn't have been better, started Muay Thai a month ago and have been struggling with the decision every day of lifting or training. Thanks so much for this!
Having my first boxing class today (after watching your video on doing so) and I was having the same dilemma. I came to the same conclusion and it’s relaxing to know you feel the same. Thank you CEO🙏🏽
Absolutely love these videos about martial arts and lifting weights mixing the best of the two worlds. You're really helping the manosphere. Can you also talk more about diet calories and macros
Exactly what i needed right now! Thank u man, keep up the grind
Perfect timing bro. Trained kickboxing for 4 years and put on a lot of mass during lockdown, overtraining kickboxing/boxing without the proper diet will litteraly disintegrate your gains. Preciate the vid G
One of the greatest structured videos I’ve ever watched ! Great work bro, keep it up❤️
Thank you Jack for this video! I definitely would like to balance weight-lifting and martial arts together. It really does allow you to become big and dangerous like you said in the long run. You are really helping the manosphere by adding a combat sport under their belt.
Bro I literally needed this video, that's crazy you made this
A bit late but here is my yearly program to balance this :
Fall and winter : bulk phase while focusing on powerlifting + bodybuilding accesories. 4 days a week lifting and 2 days boxing
Spring : cutting with less focus on powerlifting. Same program
Summer : maintaining weight and gym progress by going to the gym 2 days a week + a day of doing explosive exercises. 3 to 5 sessions of boxing a week
I like your approach
This is it! this is what we're looking for! Thank you so much Jack, god bless you
This video is so easy to follow along to, well laid out structure of what, when and how to do it instead of a bunche of rambling on about the science behind each movement. I've been training Muay Thai for the past year but have also wanted to go in the gym to build muscle, this perfectly describes what I want to do and now I know Great video mate I'll be applying this routine to my life and we'll see where this gets me.
Perfect timing. Needed this vid
Great video! As someone who started off with purely combat sports, I was always unsure how i should go about a lifting regiment while at the same time still honing my craft. This vide helped a ton!
That was Brilliant !

Very good man, this is what i have been doing subconsciously without knowing about your channel,
Finished Grecko-Roman wrestling, then went for full on Gym for 6 months 6 days week 2 hours day,
when i got to my optimal physique now i started doing boxing, go for 3 times week and gym 3 times day,
after i get good at boxing, i will start doing BJJ, to make sure, when i walk outside there is no man who could defeat me in fight,
not because i want to, but because its necessary for the confidence level i aspire to.
Its crazy how a guy who has similar ideas as me just pops up in my recommended.
Btw i read the book you recommended, the war of art. Very good one, will buy my mum.
When i was doing cardio yesterday running 8km outside,
on the way back it started raining, got cold, and now i have fever.
i was running back those 4km as fast as i can but couldnt outrun the fucking rain.
I take it as an hilariously allegorical example of Resistance. Iam at point in life when my mindset is changing for good, aiming for success, iam becoming an professional, working hard, on myself and finances. And of course i get a fucking fever. Now iam laying in bed, Limbs numb, headache, wobbly like after getting punched, and thanking God and You for recommending me that book. Because idk what would have happened if i didnt read it.
Do you do the 100 burpees right after your weightlifting routine ?

No shitty intro, no exaggerated opening, straight to the info. Lovely stuff
exactly what I need!
I like the way your information is structured - whole your presentation is a precise system.
Thank you for your effort to make us better, man.
Thank you. There needs to be more videos like this. So thank you!
This was super helpful, I didn't think it was possible to train like this but now I know how to do it myself.
It’s crazy I already train like this minus the martial arts , looking to add some of that in , great video brother ! and he’s very right about the sauna / ice bath / steam room , all hugeee game changers
Good you pointed out yoga as well, weightlifting really tightens us if we don't act on it. if one manages to stay flexible and relaxed on a daily basis it'll be way easier to be efficient at fighting
the video I absolutely needed. I like to believe my comment on the other video inspired this one lol. thank you CEO
This video is on point. Thank you for this.
Thanks for this brother insanely valuable keep up the good work 🏆
Great video! Thank you, subbed
Man I've had a hard time mixing muay thai and bodybuilding for a while. Thanks for that awesome vid brother💪
Bros becoming my favorite RUclipsr
Thanks man i needed this video it helped me a lot with balancing my martial arts classes and strength training per week
I really like how your videos are straight to the point and detailed at the same time. The informations that you put in them are fucking gold, simple and put in a way that we can easily figure out how to apply them to our life.
Bro just before you put out your video on your schedule for martial art and weight training i had just started following the same idea as you but slightly different(weight 3h/4h a week (3 sessions) and martial art 4h (wrestling class and kickboxing class).
I just came back from my wrestling class and i'm having a big fucking meal (like 300g of rice and 300g of greens vegetables + half a chicken) and i hear you talk about how we should have a big meal after burning so much calories.
It really comfort me to hear that because i felt like i had to do that but just because i felt hungry, and now you're giving me the exact reason why i'm right to do it and even make me realise i should push it further.
Definitely intend to support your product in some way to thank you !
This video came at the right time lmao just signed up to a thai box club and I am actually un gym guy so I need to learn to balance
This video was super helpful. It was super easy to follow the way you presented it. Thank you!
Thanks for watching and commenting brother glad I could help 🙏🦍
Great video!
Thanks bruda! 💪🔥
Incredibly useful!
Subscribed! I’ve been watching for a while but this video and timing was perfect
been needing a video like this liftings been harder since i started trainging mma and kickboxing
Thanks brother, it is helpful.
Perfect video. Perfect timing. Swag.
Another very good video! Keep making more
As a PT who trained n lived in the BB/Powerlifting lifestyle n training style, last week I officially dove into the muay thai world. Very early beginner stages. No sparring. Just understanding the basics.
After browsing through several other channels and finally running into this one, I knew I was on the right path in splitting both worlds equally.
I have a 3 day split of Mon. Wed. Fri strength training.
Tues and Thurs Muay Thai. With maybe a Sat. thrown in starting this week or next.
As of today I started rethinking my push/pull/ leg program on the 3 day split. Think it's better to engage in a full bod training style instead, just as you mentioned above. That sounds the most sensible approach.
Great video overall. Cheers!
thanks for this video!
This is awesome. Just what I had been looking for, thanks man!
This is a topic I’ve been trying to get right for a while
Joined a boxing class three days ago because of you Jack. Thanks a ton man!
How do you feel about yourself after joining?
Started Muay Thai recently because of you and friends.
I've been overtraining like crazy the past two weeks with Muay Thai and bodybuilding, thanks for making this video... Really needed this
98% of people don’t overtrain. Don’t kid yourself
@@freckleheckler6311 stop it g. Recovery is more important
What was your split
What was your routine
@@freckleheckler6311 Maybe he's one of the 2% who do
Fully j read my mind, have wanted to get back into martial arts but have been v focused on weightlifting. I’ll defo get back into it once I start my cut for next summer, I do miss it. Also would want to get you on da channel for a podcast type episode, j wait until I’ve got more of a following tho ;). God bless
Thanks bro!
Fantastic video mate, literally what I’ve been figuring out on my own recently. Perhaps a good idea for another vid is how to balance being flexible/mobile for Martial Arts with being strong & powerful in the gym. At least that’s something I’ve been struggling with. It’s rare that you see guys who can deadlift a house and still do the splits, because to an extent physiologically the two are counterparts.
Just wondering how you’ve managed to keep your kicks high but still have strong lifts in the gym.
Love this
Bro it’s the fact I have a question after watching ur vids and you answer it in the next vid coincidently 👏🏾
Bro tysm this is exactly the vid that I needed🦍💪
RESPECT!
Thanks for the info brother
Quality info, I am doing the same for a couple of months just instead burpee's I am skipping rope, and instead pads I am doing shadow boxing , and for now I see massive difference in my performance and body look.
Damn this was literally what I was thinking this last months of… thank you jack, really helped a lot king
Fuck yeah that is what I have been consistently thinking these days
Geat video i was thinking about starting muay thai but i didnt know how to do it while going to the gim and this video is the answer
Feast like gladiators, I like that! 💪 Also you're on point regarding sleep.
Gz on 50k
Just started Muay Thai last week. I Needed this video so badly. I don’t want to lose my gains if I can help it.
great video, i put off boxing for awhile as i wasn’t sure if i’d be able to get as big as i wanted but i’m just gonna eat like fuck on the boxing days now
Very good thank you for posting. I’ve been doing something similar as far as training. I’ve been a bodybuilder and a power lifter for years but I’ve been doing Muay Thai training for two years and I have lost a little more muscle than I might’ve liked but I’m getting some of it back, now that I am in pretty good shape, cardiovascular wise. I’ve backed off the excessive cardio and resumed my strength training while still doing pad work and sparring.
Great video
My schedule is 3 days I hit the bag for 1hour (unfortunately I got no one to spar with right now) and 2 full body work outs focusing on the compound barbell lifts. I also agree with you, Idc to being the best fighter, as long as I can defend myself against 95% of the population I'm good. plus we should try avoiding street fights, it's too volatile and chaotic. weapons, being out numbered, encountering crazy dudes who are loose in the head. I just want to be okay at fighting and look big and jacked.
The bag doesn't hit back. Using that exclusively tends to build bad habits
@@nathanielpatterson6963 Did you read my comment?
yeah... but I even said I'm not trying to be a fighter in my previous comment. Who cares bro, not everyone who trains want to fight. Most people just want to train, lift weights, learn some boxing, learn some grappling, and thats it.
Why does it matter if the bag hits back or not, I just said how I like to train and workout. What does bag hitting back, or fighting have to do with me going to workout?
@shadowX316 You mentioned defending yourself was important. Try to incorporate head movement into your training and that will help you build up your defense.
Thank you so much bro
Bro this is perfect for me
I have 3 days in martial arts but i also want to gain muscle and i was struggling to find a way to gain muscle and agility at the same time, this comes very handy
I was littarly thinking of this : monday fighting .
Wednesday : basic drill's as warming up , and explosive functional training.. so , landmine chest presses , rear delt rows , face pull's , or using some cables to improve punch power / speed.
Friday : leg day ( bodybuilding )
Saterday : upper body ( bodybuilding )
I lost my first boxing match by unanimous decision 9 days ago, mainly because I lacked strength training, didn't even touch a dumbell just technique, sparring and cardio. My dad told me that there were many times where I could've my opponent out cold if I was lifting but I put up a good fight. Time to start clanging and banging then!
Lifting for strenght does not increase your ability to produce kinetic force.The only benefit for martial arts is when there is grapling involved.Y ou may benefit from lifting compound movements in legs and hip mobility exercises but you need to alter the intensity, speed,form and rep ranges and it will be exactly oposite from what bodybuilders do . You need to train explosiveness not strength there are different muscle fibers involved in each.If you gain a lot of muscle yes you might hit harder just because you are heavier but that means fighting in a higher weight class so no advantage for you and also your endurance might suck if you gain weight too quickly so you are actually at a disadvantage.
@@Reypstraptor4269 💯💯
U don’t need to start “lifting”. Like the guy said in the video, “functional training” is what’s perfect. Your dad doesn’t seem to know much about combat sports, no offense.
@@Reypstraptor4269 if he doesnt have any strength base the best way to get more explosive is just going to be to get stronger. compound movments heavy weight and low reps you wont put on weight unless your eating like a body builder.
Find a good boxing S and C program that will balance strength work and conditioning would be my advice
@@Reypstraptor4269 any suggestions to the kind of exercises I need to be doing for explosiveness?
Thanks G
Excellent
Glad I found this, i do boxing and I want to put on some muscle without getting to slow or unfit I wouldn’t mind doing some fights eventually so when that time comes I’ll replace weight lifting with more functional stuff
My experience with this i have been trying to maingain for the last year while training almost every day and with a lot of cardio of course.I just wanted to focus on learning the skills and not worry about cutting or bulking and still lift somewhat consitently.I am around the same weight a year ago +2 kg but leaner and with bigger legs.So the main gain somewhat worked for me even if the proggress was slow.I am considering some mesocycles of 5k calories per day to try and bulk but i am not sure i can do a cutting phase afterwords without getting injured because i barely recover on a maintance.I might keep the main gain.
1) Use cycles - 2 months focus on gain strength and keep martial arts skills, than go for 2 months martial arts focus
2) Use explosive exercises like clapping push ups, box jumps, kettlebell swings (it doesn’t replace strength work it’s accessory)
3) Split strength training volume, don’t do bro split, 1 big leg session in week is worse than 2-3 small session because you don’t get sore
Well said. Depending on everyone's goal tho, but if someone was to wants to build their musculature up with bodybuilding and strength, they can do that first some time while at least being able to maintain a bit of technique of whatever combat sport they're doing. Then once they reached their amount of strength or dream physique, then they can put everything into focusing on their main sport with conditioning, cardio, heavy bag pad work or whatsoever. Not too mention this could be a perfect cutting moment too for them incase they are also bulking prior.
@@mike90susanoo84 Great comment mate, I really was looking for information on this
Hes literally a genius (effectively)
I can attest to this. Started this year at 300lbs and received no recognition from women, but after dropping to 240lbs I can say honestly that I’ve received more glances and conversations from them. With self improvement, YOU CANT LOSE💪🏿
I know I’m late but when I started karate 4 years ago I was introduced to other martial arts and I love strength and conditioning and I love karate and boxing conditioning the most
I’m fairly sure professional fighters can keep the basic compound lifts without being slowed down, they should just add functional training on top of it in my opinion. So basically you can probably get away with keeping bench press, deadlifts, squats, shoulder press, and rows (I recommend adding pull ups).
You can actually find videos of UFC fighters lifting heavy. Mike Tyson has also talked about doing bench press when he was training.
Something to keep in mind is that developing posterior chain muscles will help increase your punching power more than anything else. I heard a guy on this topic say “the hardest hitters I know are guys with big glutes and big backs).
Guys
You’re not gonna get good at a martial art without doing it 3-5 times a week
1 hr of sparring and 2 hrs of pad work will not do it
You will be mediocre
Give up on the weights to truly learn how to defend yourself and return to them later. You have your whole life to get big.
Your MT training has been given you better muscles
Exactly what the fuck I needed, been struggling with balancing between making these gains with lifting and improving substantially as a competitive fighter. Felt like I was overtraining and hurting my body unnecessarily.
What split are you following rn
Ima start training twice a day 4 days a week. For my accessory workouts I’ll add some explosive movements🙏
Bro you are reading my fucking mind, I've looking for some explanation like this for ages.
Great video! Here are some things that have worked for me so far. Below is my split and some things I do
Progressive overload with micro plates on compounds. I go up 1.5lbs a week
Monday box and back/bis. DL, horizontal row, vertical row, curls
Tuesday BJJ 2x classes (gi and no gi)
Wednesday box and shoulders. Z press, push press, lateral raises, shrugs
Thursday: Jiu Jitsu 1x
Friday: box and legs. Light squats, KOTG regimen, shrugs
Saturday 2x Jiu Jitsu (gi and no gi)
Sunday: chest and tris and 2 hr sauna. Incline bench, flys, close grip, shrugs, and dips
Eat as much as possible of clean stuff, PBJ has helped a ton. Sleep 9hrs a day
Have you held onto muscle mass doing this style of program?
@@keepitreal2311if you eat a lot you won’t lose, matter fact if you eat a lot you’ll gain
I also do a 3 day split for body building upper, lower, and full body then 4x bjj training, most of my lifts are compound lifts and for full body I do Olympic lifts
i switched from 5 days PPL to 3 full body workouts and 3 boxing sessions in a week. I dont do cardio specifically but my workout includes intense supersets and some additional isolation on days off. Im lean even though im bulking. I gain about 0.8-1kg per month.
1kg per month?? Thats insane. I started working out 8 monthd ago and only gained like 2kg even though my physique got way bigger
@@oggyfoxy i gained 6kg in 2months clean bulking
@@oggyfoxy nothing insane if u not gaining muscles at the same rate as newbie either u were fat to begin with or u not eating/training enough
@@enzo3675 u kidding me right. Ur not natural right?
@@wingdingaster1084 it's doable
Initially, amateur boxing fights consist of 3 2-minute rounds with a minute in between to rest. It's basically a sprint. It's feasible for a bulked up guy to produce 3 consecutive 2 minute bursts of energy. When the fights get longer then maybe you should look into either using a more energy conservative style or cutting weight.
What are the chances that you uploaded this right after i came back from my first Kick Box class 💯
I just started doing weights before going to my martial arts gym.
It’s not just about the muscle and strength you’ll gain, it’s about turning your body into a tank that can eat shots without breaking down. It’s just as important as skills training and endurance training.
i agree the goal is to be huge and look intimidating and at the same time actually be dangerous
Definitely found it hard to maintain muscle mass while doing MMA training. I had been training Muay Thai 2h x 4 days per week, and BJJ for 1h/week, and couldn't even have any energy or strength to lift weight afterwards. Also, only body building without MMA means ur gonna be super gassed really quickly once u sparr/hit pads. Gotta balance out the weights and the MMA training. For sure have to eat A LOT of Food afterwards as well.
Awesome video! Cheers man. Any recommendations for the yoga?
