Tony Ferguson just weighed in at 155 to watch this video
Ben Dover 😂😂
😂😂😂🤦🏻♂️
Hahahaha
You don’t have to cut weight to watch videos stupid what are you talking about ??? It’s not a requirement stupid smh
Rob Stark it’s a joke about tony’s personality
This guy sounds like he gargles with gasoline
he sounds like Steve O
He honestly sounds like Steve-O.
@@gill__y7685 aww beat me to it lmao.
1:56 - He actually sounds normal here for a sec when he said "rehydration".
He sounds like stipe mixed with cowboy
DC looked cut at the weigh in, then right back to being fat on fight night 😂😂
Crazy right ? Lol all in one day
@@CHAVO-jl7sg They still get weighed in before the fight
@@simplelife6318 ok ?
Mase 08 fit to fat in 24 hours
Neverlandia they do actually get weighed again the night of the fight, but they’re allowed to fail that weigh in and it isn’t made public. They get weighed again for health and safety reports for the commission i believe
For anyone that wants to know more about George Lockhart, he has a podcast with Joe Rogan and John Kavanagh. Definitely worth a watch.
It’s a good watch as the first half’s lockhart and the seconds kavanagh
Yeah, especially watching Rogan how he tries to figure out a diet for himself lmao. Hahaha!
They don't go into specifics though. It's their company's secret formula
As a person with a nutritional science degree using it for medical school...Yeah go watch it, it shows how little he actually knows about nutrition lmao
J 03 hiding behind my baby baby baby
The guy sounds like he has a muscle in his throat
Michael Davis that sounds like something a Michael Davis would say
Black Black 😂😂
thats funny on so many levels :'D
I feel like most of y'all don't know what a prior Marine Corps drill instructor sounds like.
Steve O + Eddie Bravo's voice = George Lockheart
Eddie Brav-O
Ha ha belter 💪💪🏴🏴
East Coast TJ Miller
He sounds exactly like Tony Robbins
Perfect 😂
My buddy is part of Lockheart/Leath and lemme tell you, the hydration shakes, post weigh in meals are on point. My team mates are well hydrated, they don’t cramp, and they perform excellent in the cage/ring. These guys know what they’re doing, and I seen first hand.
I can tell you like men
What exactly are they doing tho? Which foods need a lot of energy to break down?
Hugo search: peal a pound soup
Source: trust me bro
Philosopher K he’s an idiot 😂
This was more a collection of short stories about different fighters than how McGregor lost the weight .
Last time I tried to cut weight I gained weight.
😂😂💀💀
Probably didn’t actually try to cut weight
That supposed to happen in the first few days
Joke comment lmao
No I tried the diet where you eat 20 big macs everyday. I heard it was supposed to make you lose weight.
This is really cool. I appreciate GQ highlighting the importance of nutrition behind sports because to many athletes have eating disorders in order to look and train a certain way and highlighting healthy resources is great
I love how you can tell they're bestfriends by the way they talk- that's a powerful duo rightful
That guys beard is insane
What why 😂
huh
Beard culture is weird yo
Important man Commenting definitely said by a person without a beard 👀
Connor F. Full beard here. Beard culture is weird and overhyped
these two need to do a podcast
Tony the type of guy to cut weight after the weigh ins
So glad the mentioned thermogenesis
Being a proud Louisianian I really appreciate these guys for taking care of DC and Dustin we love those guys down here much appreciation and gratitude to Mr. Lockhart and Mr. Leith!
Killing off weight while still being the king. These guys DEFINITELY KNOW what to do!
lmao he's definitely not the king anymore
Lol
Everyone does it lol
Rohan Kumar
The belt doesn’t make him the king
@Pmoney Gaming well no u have to beat the champion regardless
Floor Gang.
Floor gang whoo!
ceiling gang? cringeeeeee?
Lockhart is legit. He has helped a lot of struggling fighters to make weight. Yoel romero is an amazing example and further the performance of Tyson fury with he’s weight being perfect.
I wish the MMA organizations would ALL get rid of weight cutting. Fighters shouldn't be walking around 15-30lbs heavier than their fight weight. They should be required to stay within 10 lbs of their fight weight on their contracts.
After this video, everyone will be influencer/personal Trainer
I remember when conor made 45 he looked like a different person props to the nutritionists who got him there each time and also conor of course.
I don't think he had a nutritionist at that stage
Scary how he looked like a other person but he fought good
That is the only fight ive bet against conor he looked like he was dead... Definitely one of the most shocking weight cuts
Conor looked skeletal at 145
He looked anorexic on the scale. 155 was a little better for him
At 3:16 After the reload meal, do you fast Dustin again? Do you have him do 1 meal every 27 hours?
Great video. I love UFC and glad to see it getting some love.
Engaging, informative, helpful. Thanks.
I'm not a huge MMA fan(I love boxing), but this is really good, interesting stuff that obviously carries over to boxing as well. Good video.
Never met a boxing fan that didn’t somewhat like mma
these guys dropped gems here
CZcams begged me to watch this video.... it was in my feed every day.
these two dudes are complete gems man, omg!!!
I body build and have cut weight many times and these guys are pretty good. They actually gave a whole lot of info that an average person would miss. They just don’t Go into detail on it so people don’t get it. Don’t matter the sport. Cutting weight is cutting weight.
What are your favorite foods to eat to help you cut weight?
@@raushanminor970 anything low calorie large volume. In the end it's calories in vs calories out.
Cormier probably almost died making 205.
Cormier still fat at 205 lol no offense
dallaskyd homie loves his chicken look at him in his college days he looks pretty fit
he almost dies cutting weight in wrestling, thats why he doesnt cut as hard anymore.
Man look at Cormier in college at 187
You should do an interview with Connor McGregor's cardio and conditioning coach???
Who ?
@@pharoah2642 Anthony Johnson
Would be interested to hear more details about the diet
Imagine if Jorge and Dustin never switched weights 😬
Wow those #’s and those deadlines are pretty drastic, but really impressive. Just a genuine question - the methods fighters use to cut weight to make a fight (diet/fast/exercise wise), are they okay for someone (not a fighter, just trying to get in shape) trying to lose weight/cut body fat in general?
I became a fighter to get in shape. Just find a hobby that you enjoy that is active, even golfing burns 800 calories per game
When look at Lockhart you do not expect the amount of knowledge he spits out.
They don't really talk that much about what they're actually doing, just dropping names lol
You don't give away your secrets. Specially when it's your competitive advantage over your competitors.
Huh?? They are talking about what they're doing enough lol
Theyve already all been fired and exposed as frauds
@@ansonyt3966 really?!
@@ansonyt3966 proof?
Im so bored during quarantine, I cut weight everyday for fun.
Your name is tony ferguson
They barely talked about how they help cut weight
Yup, it's kinda just one big ad
He literally pointed out 500 calorie deficit per day to lose a lb per week. And make sure ur diet is high in protein cuz of the thermal effect where u still get all the energy of calories but it won't become fat
What are you smoking bro? Lmao they literally gave examples of several fighters and how they made them lose weight individually. It literally just comes down to how much you train + Macro composition + your TDEE (Total Daily Energy Expenditure).
@@ballislife6483 which foods need more energy to breakdown?
@@Hugo-xj2mj any protein sources so eggs, lean meat, protein powder lol literally anything
How Dustin Poriers nutritionists help him cut weight
Where did you get that joe Rogan pic😂
Ya then Dustin got knocked out by McGregor so they just jumped the train lol
DP sucks lmao
@@tantofirewater6707 Casual
Rohnit
It’s 2020 lmao. Only casuals call people casuals
8:08 for those who don't want their time wasted.
People like you are underrated 😂
Thanks Mate! For saving my time
Boss
Thanks mahn
George used to teach mma/kickboxing and some bjj at UFC veteran Brian Stann's gym, Warrior Legion, in Alpharetta, Ga which I attended before he blew up big, 2013. He's a cool guy and I remember he'd always play the same stupid Flo-rida song during kickboxing so when I complained he'd intentionally play it and say it's for me. Glad he's doing so good.
He has to be related to Steve-O like that voice is like pre Steve-O
Extrem weight cutting is the New juice in mma since Usada
More videos of/about people in MMA!!!
The bromance is REAL.
Lockhart snorts gunpowder
Poor mans Mike Dolce, Dolce is the man
Great video!
Lockharts words just sound like they’re filled with protein 😂
somebody knows the background music?
how connor mcgregor lost weight turned into a how we met story real quick eh
Mcgregor is the holder of that Mike Tyson X- factor knockdowns in ufc.
Guy on the left sounds like Tony Robbins
Here's an idea. Ban weight cutting altogether. Move weigh-ins to day of
great idea
That's a horrible idea. That one day before the fight gives the fighters a chance to recuperate and rehydrate so they're ready for the fight and they aren't exhasperated on fight night but if they changed the weigh in to the day of fight night then no fighter would have the energy to fight and it would cause serious injury
Real 550 no he means fighters fight at there actual weight...
@@ultranikko2712 Don't have to recuperate if you never cut the weight in the first place.
BallawdeQuincewold look at wrestlers. They still cut despite having to make weight the day of
Lockheart is a beast
Food labels already take into account the thermogenic effect of the food
This is excellent
Good video
Great video
Fantastic video
Incredible video
Creative comment
Willie Mearis cool video
Guy on the left sounds like Eric Young 😂
this video is brilliant
What meal plan would you recommend for punching helpless old people in the face at a bar? Thanks
2 shot of whiskeys
Proper 12
@Sarah Daniels low carb means low brain cells
Michael Andrew Demaguil 😐
You mean a meal plan to become a two weight world champion?
Where do you find the certificate?
The background score sounds like Coffin Dance meme song.
cutting is different for everyone, just need to put that out there for people who think they can replicate this exact routine
A calorie deficit can be used by everyone.
David Witt yea but not everyone can use the same deficit
The ufc should hire them!!
This who Tank needs
He sounds like Tony Robbins
I eat like a fooking king
At least there is no tiramisu on these guys menu eh mate😂
@@oglaighnaheireann6814 Nah Conor doesn't miss weight or fly to Russia to duck Tony
@@cognito8325 the same tony that almost got killed in the octogon a few week ago?
the guy on the left is dubbed by Erlich Bachman on HBO series, Silicon Valley
Conor McGregor y’all starts at 8:15
The guy on the left sounds like DMX😐
Dude low-key sounds like Steve-O lower pitched
These guys are secret weapons
The bald one is faze rains pops I swear look just alike lol
00:14
Did he say his Name is george lowcarb?
Before nutrition, George Lockhart owned Lickity Splitz near Lake of the Ozarks
What they’re doing is my passion. Where do I start to do what they’re doing?
Nutritionist
Wow I didnt know it would be as complicated as this lol
George Lockhart looks and sounds like Tj Miller if he was in shape
bearded guy takes 3 separate occasions to say he DOESNT LIKE looking at his friend. ....overcompensating?
He's just roasting his homie. No need to accuse him of taking D
Yea seems like wrong time/place to do that. I wouldn’t want to spend time with either of these guys.
I'd say it's super interesting but I'm 3 minutes in and it just feels like a sales pitch. Kinda makes me frustrated to be honest
Haha then turn it off. This does not sound like a sales pitch at all. You obviously have never been sold to or have sold to someone. Stop crying.
Joe Rogan would love to have those guys on JRR
the “Nutritious” Conor Mcgregor!!
Also the roast of George Lockhart
Tony Ferguson teaches the nutritionist on how to cut weight
This is very interesting to me
i kind of find it funny that i have been doing some of things i hear you guys do for your weight cutting programs, but i have been doing mine personally for a few years shorter. people do not listen to me though, as they do not get it. also, i am poor at explaining in great detail.
Well what do you do my dude?
George sounds like Steve 0
These two need to be on Joe Rogan podcast. Some much knowledge.
man george lockhart has a voice youve heart somewhere but you dont know who
DMX
Mario Martin Lozar he even look like a fatter version of him
cauliflower twins :)
Whats the instrumental at 8:06??
Fasting helped me alot when I was cutting weight to get back in soccer weight , doing drills and trading fasting would help because it uses your fat as a source of energy . But that's only a step
He looks like Cerrone
This guy is Erlich Bachman if he started working out
They keep looking at each other for confirmation every time they speak
Randy C true love
song in the start?
So this was just an advertisement for them and their company. There was absolutely no value added information to the viewer, just self promotion..
Stfu
thanks for letting me know before i watched!
There was info may not be what you wanted but to say there wasn't is false
Lmao - you're not an especially smart human are you?
Not that it's mentioned in the video but it's dropping stupid amounts of water weight before the weigh in, hitting the weight, just about collapsing on stage and then pumping litres of fluid back into the body and weighing about 15lbs more on fight night.
Also before the UFC drug testing ramped up using an iv drip to replenish fluids was a great way to hide performance enhancing drugs.
