BJ PENN Lifting Weights PRE UFC 94

[dimmuborgir82]

lol hes funny!!! ;))

[2011hwalker]

BJ Penn is an example of how MMA has progressed in only 5 or so years. He is a great technical fighter but I think his strength and genetic potential left him out matched against some of the modern super athletes like GSP.

For all the people here thinking that their the same size as bj and can lift heavier, good for you!....but I guarantee after 25 minutes in an octagon you wouldn't be able to lift more than him and that's the difference between beach muscles and a conditioned athlete.

[meetchvb]

I'm trying to understand why he did bodybuilding training for this fight.

[BlueBlazer89]

@meetchvb how is it bodybuilding ? mma requires pushing (chest/triceps) and pulling (biceps/back) and alot of punching (shoulders) and alot of twisting (core)

[fewhavestrength]

@BlueBlazer89 Its bodybuilding because it’s in the hypertrophy phase you idiot, read a few more books you dumb ass!

[BlueBlazer89]

@fewhavestrength lol ok kid

[mjs0077]

why so many isolated exercises? Never seen that from mma athletes before

[kebbun1]

bj had horrible strength and conditioning coaches for this fight. arm isolation excersizes don't make you much stronger ur biceps and triceps dont need to be really strong in mma.

[jgadiaz]

i thought only powerlifters use Disturbed songs on their videos!!!

[codeman95291]

man bj can't lift shit LOL he can fight pretty good though

[TheLittleGreenMan102]

@codeman95291 yes because lifting alot of weight helps you fight.

[codeman95291]

@TheLittleGreenMan102 no it doesn't if you have to much muscle mass it'll slow your punches and stuff down fighters benefit more from plyometrics

[SuperVirk1]

the only lifts i do anymore are power cleans, i just focus on cardio and it's been way more helpful for me with my jiu jitsu.

[100isthebest]

BJ can crush 99.99999 people who say he can't lift !

[yummpyummp]

@100isthebest dood hes a trained professional fighter lol

[p4pj1]

building some chest and shoulder endurance.pretty cool to see people on tv and see that they are just an ordinary person with a sense of humor and not stuck up .

[adamresyk2112]

Obviously we have a situation here!! Anyone who is interested kicking people asses, and the art of destroying pussies, watch this video..... anyone interested in looking at muscly, semi-naked men all tanned and oiled up.... you've come to the wrong place, you're after the Jay Cutler videos.

[TheNumberOneNoob]

great taste in music

[92Asylum]

gr8 song..disturbed ftw

[PblGunReviewShow]

thats not how you do side lateral raises or rear delt raises...

[Failbot9000]

@akgroundnpound CHEEEEEEEEE HEEEEEEEEE 

[Failbot9000]

thats how we do it in hawaii fuck iron we get sand BOI

[SourcefulGamer]

What's The Name Of The Song that come's on at 0:51?

[Haseeebo]

@SourcefulGamer Stricken - Disturbed

[Kosyghin]

"Push-ups, pull-ups,...against the wall, and...yeah, push-ups..."

BJ's big fat trainer seems kinda clueless. And it shows in the way BJ's lifting.

[cristianlanda]

why is he training like a bodybuilder?

[50006972]

trainer looks like he doesnt know what he's doing.

[Highway420Music]

too bad these mma guys are so clueless when it comes to strength. they need serious help. who's this trainer? is he training a teen aged girl? you're wasting your time and money with this guy, bj.

[insightdeluxe2]

@Highway420Music i hear u but you don't want too much muscle mass in mma. muscle stamina, explosive power, and flexibility are more important than raw strength. remember he ain't holding up the center of an o line. he needs to be able to go 5-25 minutes w/out getting tired.

[Mario1057]

BJ... training?... Really?

[Homage808]

@Mario1057 u ? talking? really?...who u?lol

[Mario1057]

@Homage808 u?.. trying to be smart?.. really?.. Keep trying. LOL

[Homage808]

@Mario1057 u? talking?AGAIN?..SHUT YO MOUTH..lol

[Mario1057]

@Homage808 U?.. still laughing at your own pathetic attempts to be funny?.. and still trying to be smart??

It's not working, so go jerk off to your BJ poster and stop responding to comments that aren't directed at you. It will save you from being embarassed. LOSER.

[RAZkid887]

crap i bench more than he was beching and im 14

[oASSAULTo]

@RAZkid887 bet you he can kick your ass

[RAZkid887]

@oASSAULTo true

[bennayboi01]

@RAZkid887 brah im 14 and i bench 405 for reps when i was 9 i could do 225 for 20 reps

[insightdeluxe2]

@RAZkid887 yeah but can you hold your hands and arms up parallel to your shoulders for 5 minutes w/out getting tired? boxing ain't lifting!

[ABU2710]

@insightdeluxe2

do you know anything about weightlifting?

if you want to be explosive you need to increase you maximal stength bottom line and unless ur not lifting three times you bodyweight it can only be good for you

i'am a track runner and in our sport relative strength is the most important thing

i do maximal strenght workout 1 a month and my weight didn't increase that much because it works essentially the nervous system

it's when u lift for more than 3 reps that you muscle mass increase

[insightdeluxe2]

@ABU2710 i didnt write anything about explosive power? i was responding to the coment about strength. if you read the post, youd see he was writing how strong he was, but in mma/boxing stamina trumps power/strength. what made you feel as though you had to read your resume tough guy?

[drumbass9]

For MMA you work out on preparing for a fight, the first four weeks you lift heavy low rep then in the middle weeks you go low weight high rep so the weight goes down then in the last 2 weeks you do piometrics and bodyweight exersizes im a mma fighter i no these things

[666pat666]

this is why he lost cause hes doin generic body building exercises should be doin sport specific exercises.

[spavlit]

@666pat666 Workin wit the marinoviches is nothin generic

[spavlit]

wow. first impression is that this guys is weak. but then again, it's not good for him and he doesn't need to add a ton of muscle...

[toole7]

@spavlit bet hes stronger than you.

[spavlit]

I wasn't hating on him. And btw, I just happen to work pretty damn hard at the gym

[Kanazawa88]

what's the name of the song??

[niggles07]

stricken by disturbed

[powerbomb316]

@imwtchingu86 id say hes benching about 80KG because i have the same wieghts and bar and it looks like he has 2 15KG's and a 10KG on each side

[toole7]

@powerbomb316 so how much is it

[okusachink]

For all the morons wondering why he is training like this it's because this is probably the first phase of his periodized strength cycle where general strength/hypertrophy is established to be converted into specific strength/power as he approaches the fight.

[Stifledsubmission]

people also don't realize, that BJ does a lot of other shit, Doing BJJ alone builds great strength and endurance, then he does wight trainng, and then he does functional strength training. People just assume, the only way to work out is heavy weights with low repititions

[imwtchingu86]

how much is he benching? did anybody get a look at the weight of the dumbells on the seated mil press?

[toole7]

@imwtchingu86 about 245

[WORDMYMOTHER]

FUCK GSP MAN Bitch was buttered up

[mshawn77]

I would say that your weak, but I dont want you to find me and kick my ass:so I'll just say keep up the great work.

[mmaguy2008]

Guys weight lifting is only part of his routine. These simple exercises are benefitial to fighters(push ups, crunches,etc)but should be supplemented with other things like plyos, sledgehammer, kettelbells etc. BJ does all that stuff as well. I look forward to the fight and I think his conditioning will be very good.

[JimmyAust]

Is B.J going into a cage fight or a Body building comp? hard to say by the type of training I see here

[kappkids]

you dumb?

[ifkch03z]

thats funny because BJ is one of the best fighters in the world, not the best bodybuilders in the world.

[jamiegee123]

@ifkch03z why the hell would you mention body building .... that isint body building and doestnt look atall like bodybuilding ...

[ifkch03z]

@jamiegee123 i was replying to someones comment u dumbfuck

[jamiegee123]

@ifkch03z yeah ... well fucking press reply next time you dumb fuck !

[ifkch03z]

@jamiegee123 who said i didn't, you fucking moron

[TheUndergroundAOTP]

@ifkch03z

just because its weightlifting doesnt mean its bodybuilding

[ifkch03z]

@TheUndergroundAOTP i was replying to someone who said BJ can't lift for shit.

[firejitsu]

Your the champ but your choice in strength and conditioning coaches has gone way down since your days with Glassman.

[NinjaScorpio]

BJ is much better fighting than lifting weights (i have better technique lol) by the way keep up the hard work.Iam lookin for one of the best fights ever,gsp vs bjpenn is nice

[HARDHITTIN100]

You're a dumb ass...screw you and your technique you ignorant fuck

[Dino301]

Lick GSP's blood from your gloves when the fight's over, champ.

[RAWDOGG69]

your a beast...last time u took GSPz heart this time you'll take his soul and his belt to go along with it!

[jjmazee]

Way to work BJ Bruh! Good Luck! Your the man!! Happy Holidays!!

[triniznit]

Bj was a beast when he barely worked out and all he did was mess around and surf all day! This fight is gonna be good!!!

[sowutifmahsnsux]

I hope all this muscle BJs putting on wont interfere with cutting down to 155 to defend

[duncan3d3]

ummm why does it say ufc 94 i thought it was ufc 92

[ConalCochran]

This video makes me feel fatter than I ordinarily do..and that's pretty fucking fat.

Go BJ!!!

[rickyhurtado]

go BJ. I'm the Penn bandwagon.
