well, since he's a real martial artist, functional strength and agility is what he need. and not just aesthetic bulk up form like most hollywood actors did..
What he says is true. The best fighters are not the biggest guys on the field. They are the most lean, fit and fastest. Apparently, Joe was so fast, the director told him to slow down and he was still going too fast during MK movie.
I love how balanced Joe is, no abnormal sized muscles. I totally think he was best for Sub Zero role, so energized,that vilain look in eyes and captivating movements.
What the director did with him as Sub-Zero is amazing! Joe really made him terrifying with his body language and expressions through his eyes. Can't wait to see what he does when he eventually turns into Noob Saibot!
I hope that his recent boost in popularity due to Mortal Kombat will open up more doors in Hollywood. Marvel and/or DC, in particular, could benefit from his awesome presence and martial arts skills. Nonetheless, he carried the movie as Sub Zero. Easily the most memorable performance in that movie (next to Kano).
Honestly he shines in everything he's a part of (The Raid, The Swordsman, The Night Comes For Us, Warrior) - I hope we get to see him in a lot more and he gets the acclaim he deserves.
Joe Taslim is one of the better action stars out there, he ALWAYS sells his fight scenes! Seems like a true martial artist and a cool guy. I hope we see more of him in action movies and shows, especially as Sub-Zero or Noob Saibot.
Agreed, i'm "toned" at 11% body fat and super out of shape. As long as you're less than 24% (For a man), you're good from a medical perspective. It's said Athletes range from 6-13% but that's probably more a consequence of genes and working out so much that you dont have the ability to compensate for your deficit, than it is low body fat = athlete. Roy Nelson and Fedor Emelianko were top athletes and clearly far from 13%.
I think most ripped guys are just skinny, and most muscular guys can't move for shit lol. That's why I mix heavy and light weightlifting lots of volume with rests no longer than a minute-minute and a half so that i'm always moving in the gym.
You did us Subzero Fans a great service Joe. I personally didn't like the movie overall but Subzero, Scorpion, Liu Kang and Kung Lao were the highlights.
Finally an actual badass in one of these videos. His bagwork might not seem like much, but it is functional to precisely the type of fighting he has to do. Great martial artist and martial arts actor
The guy they were saying was so fast the cameras were having trouble capturing the choreography...doesn't get bulky to keep his movements fast.its impressive,any1 who has seen him knows.he has been in some of the absolute best choreographed scenes in recent film
He had basic Wushu since he was young. And learn Pencak Silat with Iko Uwais in latter stage. He said that in his interview. that's why he can kick punch and not just having judo style
Saw this guy fight for the first time in Warrior TV series where he played Li Yong and dude was crushing it on long action scenes with no cuts. The guy is the real deal martial artist and was happy to see him in MK movie.
Considering he was told by the MK movie director to slow down due to the other actors not being able to keep up with his speed, he could be way faster than what we've seen.
@@coolestgangsta7164 he's Indonesian. Stop saying he's Chinese-indonesia. I hate when people do that !! He's Indonesian with Chinese descent. It's like saying Robert De Niro and Al Pacino are Italian. No they're not, they're both American were born In US who had Italian descent. Got it. Joe were born and raised In Indonesian. Man don't have anything with China beside his great great grandpa imigrated from China
Dude was laying down some knowledge for beginners that wanna look good and still be agile. Trunk should've watched this vid before he bulked up as a Saiyan.
Joe é sem sombras de Dúvida o Sub-Zero mais fedapulta que Existe no Mundo botou pra ferver no MK Sucedido teremos no mínimo mais 2 MK que Ele já assinou,Brutal esse kara.
Joe Taslim is a good Martial Artist. He killed it as Sub-Zero. I enjoyed the new MK film, it's not perfect, but it was an enjoyable film. The sequel should be pretty crazy. When it comes to working out, one should keep things simple, reasonable. You must find what works for you. Once this happens, the proper training can begin. Everytime I see Joe Taslim, he'd on point, with his movements and his physique. TERRANCE OUT
he's probably one of the best parts of the mortal kombat movie.
Every part is the best part of that movie.
Facts. Him and Scorpion. That's it. I'm still trying to figure out why everyone loves it so damn much. It's not even better than the '95 version.
Most definitely.
@@WaterGates1 that’s just wrong.
@@WaterGates1 I know he is not that muscle like another’s Hollywood actors but man when he put his Sub-Zero suit on he is something!
He played the most intimidating Sub-zero ever
I thought so too, but it's okay even if subzero dies he'll become a noob it'll double its horror! 😂🔥
Definitely
True, he did the character justice
@@ilian0002 💯
@@bleach8814 lol
I like that he focuses on being fit and athletic instead of trying to build to much muscle

martial artist need strong body and flexibility, having a bulk big body make you slower
@@ArmoredSilverDevil he could put some muscle thought Scott Adkins and van handan weren't slow by any means
😂
And yet muscle is what makes you fast. Rather bizarre, isn’t it?
I did everything he said and now I can control ice.
Wow thanks dude. Now I'll try it too 🤣
Would be nice
lol

Woooaahh lol, nice dude, I’ll try it 🤣🤣

He is actually a judoka guy. Did some wushu as a kid.
@@lordoffaiyum9727 he was a gold medalist back in SEA Games 2007,so no wonder.
Brock Lesnar and Mike Tyson disagree
@@PermanentHigh but Connor McGregor & Bruce Lee agrees. Also Muhammad Ali.

This is the realest workout and advice we’ll get on this channel
Because its not by some celebrity trainer lying through their teeth 😂😂
@@siwaisavage2181 "We had him eat chicken every 30 minutes for muscle gain." - The trainer.
Cause he’s real athlete.
wdym 2 million ushups a day is the best advice from this channel period
because he used to compete as an athelete
What did Sub-Zero taught me..."Make your workout simple. Don't need equipment. And BE FLEXIBLE!" Flawless Victory. 🥶
😂😂😂
You don't need any equipment when you can literally grow a sword from your hand.
@@truthseeker1934 he can literally create his own weights
then your opponent will be, "get over here!!"

Joe taslim for namor
he was badass in warrior. not to take away from mk cause he was beast in that too lol.
Honestly he shines in everything he's a part of (The Raid, The Swordsman, The Night Comes For Us, Warrior) - I hope we get to see him in a lot more and he gets the acclaim he deserves.
Joe and Hiroyuki really carry the whole movie
Also kano 🥰
Can't forget Kano tho

He doesn't seem like a true martial artist, he was a true martial artist, 12 years as an international judo athlete.
Judo gold medalist
I like that he shows you don’t have to be ripped to be athletic

exactly
Yes, exactly!!!! That's why I like him so much.
I think most ripped guys are just skinny, and most muscular guys can't move for shit lol. That's why I mix heavy and light weightlifting lots of volume with rests no longer than a minute-minute and a half so that i'm always moving in the gym.
yeh....he is a real star...12 years international Judo player...2 years wushu
This dude was incredible in The Night Comes For Us. Kicked ass all the way through. Defo his best fight scenes in my opinion
He's right when it comes to fitness, it should be simple, nothing fancy.
"Shadow training"
Taslim plays Bi Han
Bi Han eventually becomes Noob Saibot in the game
Noob Saibot has shadow powers
...well done
Why are you Spoiling!!
LMAO
Not really a spoiler if you know anything about the lore of MK.
Yeah it's been a thing since the 90s
Lolol!!
Very sneaky of him there lol
You did us Subzero Fans a great service Joe. I personally didn't like the movie overall but Subzero, Scorpion, Liu Kang and Kung Lao were the highlights.
Can't forget Kano. He was hilarious.
@@christophermurillo7250 Eh. He was whatever. I didnt watch it for a comedy show/ MCU humor.
@@UnifiedEntity I didn't either, but he was definitely a pleasant surprise for me. Kinda like Johnny Cage from the original always cracked me up.
@@UnifiedEntity Kano and Sub-Zero stole the show imo
Sub Zero definitely belongs to him like Shang Tsung belongs to Cary Tagawa.
THIS IS SO HYPE!! I love it!!
Hope we get a Tough Like The Toonz soon
You are everywhere lol...
These workouts are working for me too. Good for BJJ
He was able to strike fear into people with just his eyes as Subzero. He was excellent as Subzero and I look forward to 3 more films.
Finally an actual badass in one of these videos. His bagwork might not seem like much, but it is functional to precisely the type of fighting he has to do. Great martial artist and martial arts actor

Joe is just so underrated. His Indonesian films are something else.
The Night Comes For Us
He's a fucking monster. Although MK Reboot had disappointed, Taslim as Sub Zero is so fast and vicious that shines apart.
Which are the best ones?
@@heartbeatpoetry7704 the night come for us ,raid
How is he underrated? He is getting steady work.
He was great as Sub-Zero, but my favorite role from him is his character in Warrior.
Pun intended, I got chills every time he was on screen. Especially in the alley with Jax. Incredible choice for Bi-Han.
Probably one of the best and realest guest you have on this channel.
Amazing screen presence as Subzero. Will have to go and check out his other films. Solid actor.
Joe carried this entire movie with just those cold eyes of his
He wore contacts. *HAHAHAHAHA*
@@juliofrank83 Sure. But I was actually talking about his acting through his eyes.
Agree. Fantastic acting with eyes. Iconic movie moments are all about the face expressions in context.
Warrior is a badass show I hope someone picks up the 3rd season
The 3rd season got picked up already. They moved it from Cinemax to HBOmax. Probably be the last season.
They got renewed last week for a 3rd season. It will be on hbo max
It got picked up by HBO!!! Season 3 confirmed!
They did. HBO Max renewed it last week!
@@shinra94 thank god
What's crazy is that his best Fighting style is Judo. He was never a Kicking type of guy until he started doing the movies with Gareth Evans and Co.
He had basic Wushu since he was young. And learn Pencak Silat with Iko Uwais in latter stage. He said that in his interview. that's why he can kick punch and not just having judo style
He is former national judo athlete
Also taekwondo
Thanks to the men in The Raid films :)
Judo is highly underrated martial art. Explains why his takedowns and throws look so smooth in movies.
He was badass in the raid and now a badass subzero he was the best part of the movie
Saw this guy fight for the first time in Warrior TV series where he played Li Yong and dude was crushing it on long action scenes with no cuts. The guy is the real deal martial artist and was happy to see him in MK movie.
You should bingge watching : the raid redemption, night comes for us, swordman.
He was so scary in mortal Kombat. I hope they make a subzero spinoff
He was also in the korean movie “swordsman.” Great actor, hope he gets more roles
Best character in Mortal Kombat
Joe Taslim
This guy is a living legend!
Such a humble guy but a menacing badass on screen.
dude. your subzero was beast mode man. loved you in warrior too! keep it up!
His humility and his demeanor makes for a great video✅would've been nice to see his diet💯💯💯💯
Thank you.. greetings from Bali, Indonesia ❤🙏🤗🇮🇩😁
Much love got Taslim ever since The Raid! He IS SubZero! ❄❄
Raid Redemption and The Night Comes Before Us are legendary, cant say he is underrated though, just here in the west he may be
Must see warrior and swordman. Joe is a star there too
Joe-You are the best Sub-Zero.Keep training man.
One ☝️ of my favorite actors all time joe
He still moves fast as he did in the Raid.
Raid was way faster.
@@XIXRayderXIX well its diff technique so yeah this is not as fast as the raid
@@Gba4mzz no crap, I don't know why this guys comparing mortal kombat to raid anyway not fair is it
Night comes for us
Considering he was told by the MK movie director to slow down due to the other actors not being able to keep up with his speed, he could be way faster than what we've seen.
I hope he comes back as the next Sub Zero, the brother or descendant. If not that, hopefully Smoke. This actor killed it as Sub Zero.
he was the best sub-zero ever, man joe is the man!
He was great in The Raid! Highly recommend the watch
But, "Night Come for US" is his Best
The fact that this guy is Indonesian and he spoke 3 different language in the movie is awesome
When I saw the movie I was like. Is he Indonesian or Chinese? Because I know him form the Raid.
@@johnjohn-bz8kb indonesian
@@coolestgangsta7164 pdhal dia kalem aja ko cuman bilang 1 kata, malah elu yg kek dari tadi repot repot menjelaskan haha

Ikr, and dont forget that he speaks korean as well in the swordsman movie
Great actor and martial artist.
His work in the movie was absolutely amazing.
I’ve watched MK 4 times in a row now, mainly because of his performance in it. He’s fantastic 💙
No point see what's in his fridge as he freezes all his food!
😂😂😂
Lol hahahaha well done
Flawless comment
😂
Lol
I just love him, have watched two of his movies he is incredible 💪
Man is rocking a dad bod but still moves fast
He is a judoka so he specialised in throwing guys around. Dad strength. Not a flashy fighter by nature. Judo is tough business.
He was also a member of Indonesia's judo national team from 1997 to 2009.
I never get bored watching him
Let's not forget Joe Taslim is 39 in great shape , and is easily one of the top action stars in Hollywood.
And he is former judo champion in indonesia
And they're many 39 year olds who are in good shape, so.....

I remember he was one of the first guys to be announced for MK ... I knew this was going to be fun.
If im not mistaken, he is the first confirmed cast in mk
@@edwinaritama You are not. He was the first.
I remember Joe from The Raid, excellent martial artist.
Him , scorpion and Kano were the best parts of the movie
I like his speaking accent. He looks good and I like how he keeps it simple. By the way, I loved him and Scorpion in Mortal Kombat. ❣❣
SUBZERO HAS ALWAYS BEEN MY FAVORITE HE IS HANDS DOWN THE BEST CHARACTER 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥💪🏽💪🏽💪🏽💪🏽😳
I like this guy’s approach. You don’t really need a whole bunch of fancy equipment to get into shape.
That new mortal kombat movie Dope 🔥🔥🔥💯
He was sick in the movie
Joe taslim is going to be it, he was dope as sub zero
Bi Han!!!!!!
Would love to see more of his martial arts training!
very proud of you man. akhirnya ada bang joe
Loved his performance in Warrior. I hope they pick it back up.
Best Indonesia actor ever
Seeing this type of training compared to the typical weightlifting is refreshing
This is how I workout too, I don’t lift heavy , I want to still be quick and agile, Speed over power
He was born to play this role
Cool dude. He's also in the show Warrior!
Nice training, Thanks for sharing. I
I’m usually a scorpion fan but sub zero stole the show. Ever since the raid you have been killing it.

So cool! Sub zero was awesome in MK!!! 🔥🔥🔥 flawless victory!
Good video, this guy's awesome. But, I really wanna see Ludi Lin (Liu Kang) in one of these. That dude was absolutely SHREDDED.
Yes that dude killed it as Liu
There's a diet video featuring ludi lin on men's health.
He looked so much bigger in the Warrior series! Still Dude is so fast and his Sub Zero was perfect even if not all the FX were.
He speaks so gentle very unlike his character in warrior... Love that character too though
Sub Zero stole the show! He was sinister!
Best Sub-Zero ever.
2:36 Over Head & shoulders (Shampoo)

well he's too fast for the camera
