The Fighter - Abs Workout (Knockout Abs Without Crunches!)

[starmsjc]

I mean *doesn't* know anything about the sport.

[starmsjc]

I'm a female who doesn't follow boxing and knows anything about the sport but wants to do these. The moves are awesome and fun to practice to get abs!

[manzarekcode87]

I train box x)

[rocked7342]

get your elbows in, bitch.

[starmsjc]

I am a female but would love to practice this to fire up my core standing rather than laying down

[MrElviz11]

Put a shirt on man, we know u have muscles

[SpecOpsMission]

@MrElviz11 Who wouldn't show them off if they were as ripped as him! he's proud of what he's accomplished

[MrMuaythaimitko]

Jeff , your boxing skills aren't the best , but hell , I'd trade my silver medal for your body anyday ^^

[warriorkid2120]

Its not the boxer its the fighter

[mattlikesgraciebarra]

does stepping in like that extend your reach? i was taught not to break the stance and just twist the powerleg

[Brosnbroccoli]

@mattlikesgraciebarra

You would never throw a upper cut without any opening punches anyway, so if you're stepping forward to throw the uppercut it should be because it gets your into your stance again. Unless you're in a clinch-fight (what ever it's called in english), in which case you wouldn't step forward anyway.

[Brosnbroccoli]

@mattlikesgraciebarra

Edit:

.. And if he's a lot taller than you, I guess you could step under his punch and try and land the uppercut. I would personally go for the hook in that case, but that might just be me.

Anyway, the point is to work out your core in a different way, not learn boxing. This It's clearly not the most effective way of getting better at boxing.

[briangunn21]

This dude gets tired way too easily in every video

[zinuki2]

@briangunn21 That's because he talks throughout the whole demonstration...

[MrPenang91]

will this work with dumbells???

[timothyboyle]

Great video!! I like how you made it so anyone can do a good boxing workout without boxing equipment!! That's awesome man!

[chaoshero99]

hello, i'm a 15y boxer and i was wondering does this strenghthen your abs or just makes them look good??

[BubblesTheBerserker]

@chaoshero99 It will strengthen your abs and make them look good.

[extricheme]

Yes it does strengthen your abbs. your abbs are the same as any muscle if you workout and engage the muscle it will tear rebuild and become stronger aslonge as that is how you are training, for example for muscle strength and endurance its 12-15 reps 3 sets

[kiriderz]

thanks man! i have neck probelms so.i cant do crunches but this helps!

[kakarakshay]

great job!

[ShitStain195]

the bands aren't neccesary, are they?

[sameem13]

@ShitStain195 Don't know if you still need a reply but i reckon they're there to add resistance... =)

[soulinthewall77]

"The Fighter," I think is the name of the film--not "The Boxer.". :) ! Great videos. I found your stuff very helpful.

[52cardsco]

[the4RESAU]

@silent02 no,you dont need this,you need to read a book called " no more mr nice guy "

[silent02]

@the4RESAU LOL! Too nice at times, I think. I just hate going to the gym where idiots that want to socialize rather than workout just walk up and talk to ya...

[donovanandrocket]

Jeff I'm extremely interested in getting your 90 day athleanx x program but I only have a straightbar a curling bar and 70 lbs of weights is it still possible for me to get extreme results and alot of use out of your program with so little resources

[DTLACuriousity]

Word son! Timothy Bradley Jr. Welterweight champ has one of the best physiques in boxing now!

[ragnarokim36]

how many sets of these should I do?

[theman5625]

do those bands really work

[TheIrishPaul]

Music at the start, anyone know the name/artist?

[thespecter2]

Jeff has a small cluster of haters responsible for the handful of random dislikes in all of his videos. LAME-O's!

[patruhe1]

[kounelakie]

[MrAggieJr]

[popalafg]

This is how a man's body should look like. Not like a huge beast.

Good work man.

[pbJRA]

mark wahlberg sucks!

[zaikozorro]

I've been doing these for a week now. I also added a few moves of my own to make a complete upper body workout. Thanks Jeff!

[chec2k]

Can I get these band in the UK?

[almondatmm]

nice abs

[moricestreet909]

@ThisPoorCommenter Ofcourse there is! There are many super effective body weight workouts that will get you ripped! Equipment is good to add resistance and so help you build muscle tho!

[Cuntexplosion]

you should have pointed out that it's quite important to breathe out every time you punch(or cover)...i know it's absolut basic stuff...but you always got some guys training without proper breathing and the heads getting more and more red every second ;)

[mursalat]

7 sumo wrestlers watched this video...

[Cuntexplosion]

@mursalat dude...EVERY sumo out there could lift you with one hand and just throw you away

AND they could punch the shit outa you with palmstrikes...so show some respect for those incredible athletes xD

[mursalat]

@Cuntexplosion so true.. i dont doubt that.. but at the end of the day.. they dont have 6 pack...xD

[Cuntexplosion]

@mursalat i think they are just hiding them under tons of fat, because they don't want to make other ppl all jealous and angry.

damn i would give so much to have that kind of self-esteem and courage ..those brave,brave sumos xD

[blearghp]

@mursalat dude, under those six packs i tell u, there's twelve packs and under those twelve packs, there's twenty four packs. those sumo wrestles have more muscle in their body than i can think of anyone else. just what cuntex said, they dont want others to be jealous of their physique XP

[TheK0894]

how do you train your side so it seemes like I can see your ribs. I don't know what it is called, but it sort of looks like wings.

[Bazzer239]

@TheK0894 - Generally you work this area, the side obliques, when you twist or rotate your core. For instance, you're in an decline bench, you lock your legs at the tops, lie back with the weight, do a sit up/crunch and move the weight from left to right. There are torso rotation machines and oblique exercises, but instead of explaining it would be best to search for them here on YT or just to Google them....

[TheK0894]

[TexasAmateur]

shadowboxing with elasitc bands will also increase hand speed very good workout i've done something like this back in the days.

[iballinman]

hey right now im workin on muscle size, any suggestions

[nadagain]

Great video Jeff - boxing is great!

[Jonesie501]

he's got his uppercut half right, he needs to drop down a little bit more.

[alittlerascal]

sexy

[MrAwake2012]

Truly sir, you are a genius.

[uza69]

all this abs exercise that you show us, do they help to loose fat? or i just have to do cardio? i've allways had some fat arround my abs and never had them defined, how can i do it?

[metalcorefan911]

@uza69

nutrition and cardio will work wonders bro. look up scooby1961, he and jeff are the only people i listen to.

[fitchickangie]

I just saw the movie tonight! It was awesome!! I had no idea you'd be doing a video about it! Crazy!

[aaa809]

what if used dumbell instead of bands?

[yyourfacee]

the oblique crunch for the block is very creative !

[remi777692]

Awsome men!

[monkeyboi282]

How much are those bands to buy each?

[Naskeman]

Hi Jeff! My name is Kent, I am 55 years old and I am a big fan of your training principles. I exercise three times a week, and the results are amazing after just three months of training. I have a question though ... why is there no training for calves in athleanX? All the best / / Kenta from SWEDEN.

[lhand75]

Keep up the good work! You do things on another level!

[spikez007]

this reminds me of kenpo x from p90x

[DjKidKali]

Not only can he workout, he can kick your ass :O

[maxx56dog]

what is your body fat percentage?

[paratrooperOC1992]

@JDCav24 hey Jeff, another awesome video. Im making some real gains with the athleanx training programme and your personal tips. Quick question: what is your view on ab wheels?

[baeronautics]

i sometimes wonder WHERE THE HELL DOES HE GET THESE IDEAS!!!

[alexgomez2]

Jeff as always. . . . amazing advise. I love your staple phrase "you don´t have to be a proffesional athlete to look like one; you just need to train like one." Thank you for every effective, no non-sense bit of information you share. And, as I always say, if by following your advise I get to look have as good as you look, man I´ll follow you to the end of the world. Thanks again!!!

[CreatureGam3r]

that intro music is really gay

[jangler16]

@CreatureGam3r troll somewhere else

[CreatureGam3r]

@jangler16 its true, its childish as hell.

[shaqster187]

QUICK question, the bands are 30 bucks, which are expensive in the situation of a jobless 17 year old, however i have rubber tubing, could i maybe use that instead?

[LTMagic21]

@shaqster187 yeah....

[crazycjk]

@shaqster187 Like he says he's not just trying to sell his stuff... use anything with the same characteristics as the bands and it'll work. Rubber tubing will be fine, bungee cord, whatever.

[markgoffeney]

Simply put, Jeff is the man...

Makes that del monte douche look like a chimp

Jeff, yes he's selling his own program, but he fills us with awesome shit like this :D

Vince is a sell out

Stay strong jeff, you ARE the MAN!

[LTMagic21]

@markgoffeney scot herman ftw

[markgoffeney]

@LTMagic21 scott herman is an awesome guy

honest, gives to the community. He's a legend.

Who was doin it first? jeff or scott

either way

they should team up (and not sell out like arnel wankericafranco and skinny vajayjayvinney, and start tryin to sell everything they can, spamming four emails at a time) and do some really cool stuff, and evern if they did offer to sell stuff, i would buy it. because they are awesome. Love you jeff :L:L

[dda030582]

@markgoffeney Scott is a fag...not that there's anything wrong with that, but his training principles are basic. You can attribute his physique to consistency,genetics, and good nutrition. He's a good looking guy that was on The Real World. That's why he's popular. Training with a pillow? C'mon & he trys to play it off like it's some fantastic fitness tool. The shake weight is better. ha Jeff is a world class educated trainer with innovative unique effective training techniques. No comparison!

[markgoffeney]

@dda030582 Harsh :L..The only thing i can reply to that is: At least he is consistent with it. I wouldnt mind being as popular a him, or in as good shape as him, hes fairly fuckin strong judging by what he lifts. YEah the pillow thing was a bit far, but he played to the masses with that one. Other wise, his FREE workouts are good like, demonstrations.. its all good. But yeah, jeff is way ahead of him to be fair. Chris krueger is another awesome guy

[6demonai]

Great information! They teach you to hit that way in martial arts, by rotating your core. I guess you could use the bands to train your kicks as well for leg work.

[srairmand]

Im eating cheesecake

[ElSheriffoLargeMoney]

Great vid. Nice to switch up the training.

[cruiserweight190]

Sorry but this is NOT how boxers train their abs! if you don't get on the floor/slantboard /or swiss ball and do the traditional abdominal exercises plus the use of the medicine ball your not going to be able to take punches, kicks etc to the body simple as that...

[TheRunAway46]

@cruiserweight190 he didnt just mean thats all they do he just ment these exercises work the abs aswell thats why boxers have good core muscles because they effectively do both traditional and theses abs workouts

[cruiserweight190]

@TheRunAway46 thats funny because I have been in and out of boxing/kickboxing gyms & camps for 20+years I have never seen anyone do this. he is insinuating that this is how boxers train their core and its not! yes your using your core when you shadowbox do bag/padwork & spar I have never seen shadowboxing with a giant rubberband called ab work if this is just for the "average joe" then great. point of fact is he's saying that that boxers train their core in this fashion and I'm saying not so.

[jhanrahan05]

@cruiserweight190 - what Jeff is doing is giving you an alternative method to work your core while you practice some punches. Is this how every fighter trains? Probably not, but as someone with over 10 years invested in martial arts training, I think this is definitely a new way to practice and get a good ab workout at the same time. Lighten up.

[cruiserweight190]

@jhanrahan05 yeah ok sensai I'll keep that in mind thanks for your $0.2

[davidhsu30]

Awesome!!

[serichejr]

How tall are you, and how much you weight?

[honestyize]

Jeff man great stuff. Every time I watch your videos I'm just like "god he's fucking ripped!" way to practice what you preach bro

[bayor99]

Thumbs Up. Will give it a try but doesn't one has to be "already sculpt" to benefit from this workout?

[chavamma]

Jeff you've trained MMA fighters you're in extraordinary shape, I bet you could kick some ass you've ever considered MMA?

[chavamma]

Jeff you've trained MMA fighters you're in extraordinary shape, I bet you could kick some ass you've ever considered MMA?
