This is good. Thanks for your effort.
thanks! Great for rewatching
Thank you!
You actually can get KOed by a hook because biomechanical research shows that you need almost half the force to get KO with rotational forces. The jaw is leverage for the forces. What you can do is increase your neck flexors' isometric strength (as shown in research) can reduce the chance of concussions by 50% or more. And that reduction is linearly increased with more isometric strength. More specifically every 450g of extra isometric strength decreases concussion chances by 5%. So someone with just 9kg more isometric max strength of the neck, is 2 times more difficult to get concussed
So basically , I should work my neck sideways more as compared to up-down motion
Source ?
@@someboi4903 I remember Gabriel's brother also saying hooks were more dangerous when he was in a video recently to talk about concussions in combat sports, which feels more intuitive to me from a mechanical engineering perspective (in terms of which seems likelier to impart significant impact on the brain). Can't speak for the isometric neck strength numbers, but I do some neck bridging and headstands daily and am able to breeze through the neck workout video that was linked, so it seems like isometric neck training can carry over to combat performance.
Link to the study?
He covers this in his first point. Most hooks aren't seen and can't be prepared for.
I remember in sparrin I got clipped in the jaw with a clean left hook ever since I focused on defence and that allowed my offence to become better as I knew I could successfully defend incomin shots
Good stuff man. It’s an awesome epiphany for sure!💪👏
I noticed tonight that I’m actually 60-40. But I’m also old and can’t breathe properly atm! 🤷♂️😆🙏
Another absolutely golden episode full of priceless tips. We get spoiled here every single day 🙏
PS. Literally off to the gym now...after 3 WEEKS off with a horrible chest infection. Kinda dreading it! 😲😬🤷♂️
Kill it. Coming back from a hiatus is difficult to go but you always feel better when you leave 😊
@@Elohim100 yes, thank you brother. Absolutely 100% true. Felt incredible after. 👏
I think I did kinda kill it, because my bag (well column tonight) partner was full of compliments. Haha! 😁
...tbf though...my lungs felt like two small balloons filled with asbestos. 🤷♂️🤣
Thanks again bro 🙏
@@avisao7633 thanks bro 💪🙏
Sound is great, thanks Gabriel
1. Do not blink, work on better vision. Take practice shots to head and work on peripheral vision ... noodles
2. Improve neck strength with training.. has video ((personally this was a tough workout)
3. When hurt, dont get reckless and go for KO ... ok to jab but need to recover. Mental focus.
4. Bite down on mouth guard
5. Mentally do not force a KO, dont charge in
6. Roll with punches or kicks but know the distance... pull back also so not getting hit in back of head/neck
7. Straight punches, per study, are more likely to KO, so be prepared to defend
8. Hone your defense, practice
Another excellent video 📹. For me your videos r #1 👌for helping me with my kickboxing
The neck training really is something man, i did the whole semester daily and my absortion to strikes improved in a way i would never believe, got clipped hard a few times and managed to dont fade anymore and keep the breathing on point, and also ive been doing jaw + trapz exercises constantly i few the way i tuck in to protect my chin improve significantly, and Gabriel if you see this could you give us a hint on how to divide the week of weight training when you have box/kick seshs everyday? Im trying to hypertrophy at the same time but i feel my body gets exhausted, having in mind i just do this as hobby and not for competition purposes.
Appreciate your content man defo the best fighters guide in youtube!
Thanks Gabriel
Hi Gabriel! First of all big thanks and respect for your channel, which I am a new fan of. I just wanted to say, the 400 USD mic did the trick a little better, maybe the lapel mic is good for crowded big spaces, where it's really just catching your voice, but for the studio appearences is the good bright mic a lot better. I mean the quality of sound, the frequencies brights are just vastly different between these two.
Bro love the content keep it up man
Knock them out first has always worked for me but I'm heading for higher quality opponents so this is 🔥🥊
It's a shame your channel don't get the attention you deserve, but I really appreciate the amount of content you create and its necessity. Thank you
10:32 when you get hit less you live more
In my opinion the best fight channel out there. Thanks and keep up the good work!
Great tips. Just started training MMA
Hands up and move your head off the centerline - got dropped, started training last year. You won't feel it. All the best
Good stuff!
Thank you! I’ve already had 3 bad concussion from sparing
bro tell me how to avoid it as i am new in the sport plzz tell
You are great. Thanks.
Good stuff.
Thank you for every video
Tnx, great pointers, very logical and straight forward. I always found that gyms work on defense so little when it is half the game if not more!
Thanks Gabriel, I learn a lot from your videos
Woooow! Amazing topic usual, but in my opinion you have to strengthen you neck with. You can lay down on a bench and do neck crul( front,side and back) with small weight.
Thank you sir.
Let's go defence!!!
YEAH
That shirt is so sweet!
the audio is great now
How perfect as I just got KOed in my last kick boxing match. Unfortunately but live and learn and back on the mission to becoming a champion !
man i can feel your pain headkicks come in my nightmares kids are scared from monsters under the bed fighters are scared of headkicks
I didn't listen to the how that sound was. But it didn't sound bad. It's much better then last time
oh this is easy, tip 1: don´t fight
Or fight only 5 year olds
@@cameronkazan1630 those are tricky
What if they kick you in the balls?
You can still get KOd like the kid at the restaurant Joe Schilling went to or Mike Perry
Bro what?
Hey Gabriel l I just had my first muay thai match, against a taller, southpaw fighter. Could I send it to you and you could let me know what I could've done better? I didn’t really have a corner so I was kinda lost in there. Cardio was an issue for me too after the 2nd round
Can I check it out too?😁
You went in independently?
@@iansoulless yeah and I was told there would be coaches from the gym working both corners, but it ended up being a student instead for me
@@blackbeasley23 what's your email?
Please tell us about counter punches against side kick.
Do you plan on teaching any camps soon? Or, too busy training for Karate Combat stuff these days? I swear someone at my gym in WA state said you were coming out to teach sometime soon. Maybe I just heard what I wanted to hear though. 🤷🏽♂️
6:45 pereira says hi
All your videos are great but I feel like this one was made just for me haha. Thanks Gabriel
very nice shirt 😆, how to get one? I did not find it on the website
Coming soon. I believe I got an early one.
Love you man❤
Hey can you please make a 5 things video on petchmorkot
thanks a lot of the content gabriel i've been training for quite some time i usually use long guard when i fight a shorter fighter and they throw wild hooks they don't catch me but i'm rarely able to counter while i'm using the long guard so i adjust to high guard to block and counter but obviously then i play into their game and i get hit a bit, any tips to fix that?
There are many counters you can use with the long guard. Watch fighters such as pereira and superbon, andre ward in boxing.
do you remember when you saw that study? perhaps it's a bias on my part but to me it seems like the hook is more likely to land the finishing blow than straights
What makes Alex volk so good ?
1: Concealed carry
GV would be demonic as a coach
Should have put Saenchai in the thumbnail lol
Any tips on us 4 eyed people(bad vision) lol
Rerecording seems to have paid off, because this sounds much cleaner than the first video with the new mic did 🙂
And great tips, as usual 😃 Interesting that you found a study saying straight punches are more dangerous for the brain than hooks, because I think your brother had said that the opposite seems to be true 🤔Well, I guess it comes down to there not being a great way of tanking punches to the face, so get that defense trained up 💪
Btw...I’m no expert at all, but I think the gain/reverb setting is up too high on your mic. Perhaps the bass too. But the improvement in sound is completely obvious...especially as it’s a lapel mic. 🙏
How do you develop the awareness necessary for defense. First you have to understand the movements involved in a technique. Because say a technique takes 3 weight shifts to execute, and to defend you only need 2 weight shifts, then you look for that first step and know you have an extra step on your opponent. Take the straight punch, most untrained people will wind up, take two steps then throw their haymaker. If you recognize the first step and act on it, that haymaker has almost no chance of landing dead on. When we figure out a fighter's range, we are judging the shifts in weight they take in order to throw their punches/kicks/elbows/knees/etc. No good jab exists without footwork guiding it, even if you're standing still, unbeknownst to you, you make 3 small weight shifts every time you execute any technique.
👍
I have one too. Just do BJJ :)
Watching this from an offensive perspective also
Thanks for the tips. It’s very important to avoid getting KO not just for profe but specially to avoid head and brain injury.
What is your opinion on the Chinese fighter Yi Long? I’ve seen videos of him taking punches to the face (without guarding at all) and not getting KO or even knockdown. I also have seen him being KO by same type of punches or kicks.
From your video, I’m guessing he avoids KOs by bracing his neck and abounding the head being rocked back. And that the time he has being KO he wasn’t ready to brace and got the worst of the strike.
Tip number 1: just walk away
He’s talking about sparring bro 💀
Similar to Mayweather, be defensive based fighter and use primarily counter techniques
hooks deffo more likely to KO, but the rest i agree with
Tip No1 : Don't fight
