#Olympics #Karate #Workout - Zábava
I miss this kind of training. Yes, he will die in MMA. But listen to the last part of this video. It’s a control olympic sport and focus more on a short burst of energy. Brilliant video training for those interested in this sport. Just shows how Men’s Health is able to cover a wide range of trainings. Well done guys!
No he just has to train for MMA and he'd be good. Lyoto Machida's background is karate. That's why it's called MMA.
agreed those dumbass guys bringig up mma on every karate video is just exhausting and not in context
@@giorgikhutsishvili5044 And Matthew, you guys are truthful and I respect that. Thank you for not hating. He does wado ryu and so do I. He trains at my dojo and he is the best. 🤗🤗
All I’ll say about the people who shout MMA at every other system is that there have been karate guys who were far faster then any MMA fighter I’ve ever seen including machida . The MMA game has an edge in grappling and hand striking systems , but you have excluded the likes of Yahara who hits you once at speed , rarely missed the target and rattled your ancestors . The guy was feared by the yakuza for a reason . 🤷♂️
@@markwalker4142 What you and most forget to mention is that Karate was NOT developed for sport. It is purely for self-defense. One has to retool it for it to work in sport. And we see it is effective in sport. But on the street Karate rules supreme!
some great methods for speed and explosiveness. Karate is a lot of fun,and much more exciting to perform than to watch. Though I enjoy watching many bouts,there are others that just don't bring excitement. It depends on the athletes. In Tom Scott's case,I was in staging( warm up are) right by this guy in Reno 2014. He definitely has "IT" As a GJJ,and Karate practitioner,as well as a huge MMA fan. Tom Scott has my respect. Also what a lot of people do not realize is just how many Karate competitors are in fact mixed martial artists. Just because we love Karate does not mean we do not train Jiu Jitsu,Boxing,Wrestling,or Muay Thai. Many of us do. To say in MMA a karate fighter would just get wrecked,is ignorant. GSP,Lyoto Michida,Wonderboy,and ton of other UFC fighters train Karate. And do very well. I would admit in my view that a wrestler if having no other MA training were to start MMA they have a bit of advantage of other stylists including karate. But really only in the same way a very good boxer would. I'm sure their conditioning is the edge. It's incomparable. Wrestling,and Boxing have the best conditioning. Athletes from those arenas have a great leg up in MMA. But,it's not the end all be all. As we've seen some guys just have freakish punch power i.e Ngannou,some guys are freaky slippery i.e Adesanya,some fighters Judo,and Jiu Jitsu are just better than any others in their class Rousey. Some fighters are just hard ass,Diaz bros. Theres all types. We should appreciate them all. Including awesome athletes like Steve Lopez TKD,Kron Gracie Jiu Jitsu,and Yes Tom Scott karate. They offer us something different,and interesting. No one watching youtube could have a single clue how any of them would fair in a street fight,and guess what who cares. These people are too busy improving themselves at their craft to be bothered wasting their time getting into fights anyways.
At 5:09...a hadoken fireball is part of the triset workout tribute to Ken and Ryu
Some seriously training here! Always great workout motivation 💪💯
Yes looks really good
Excellent program . I’ve used some of this myself . Slight variables on the bike workout . I also do a 10 minute spin bike program with a 40/20 HIIT split . 40 s moderate intensity, 20 s flat out !! I do this either side of a functional weights and band workout . I.e .. I book end it . I particularly like the workouts from Athlene x That guy knows his athletic prep workouts .
I like the emphasis on core engagement especially . It lacking in karate competitive prep and although my competition days are long gone - I’m 55 - I’m still achieving a resting heart rate of 48 Bpm , so I’ve kept my fitness well . Karate and training is hard graft and it’s easy to just sit on the sofa and eat shit .
I’m slightly ocd, so I guess that’s what keeps me going all these years . All I would ever say to anyone is look after you hip health . Mine are not good . I’ve already had one hip resurfacing and the other needs doing later this year .!
Age , wear and tear , genetics 🤷♂️
EXELENTE, SALUDOS DESDE COLOMBIA
Nice video & nice traning
Me too a karate sparring champion at age 14
Savat Training by Day here :)
Osu respect
I want to learn some type of martial arts but not in my budget 😭
CZcams tutorials and barfights😂😂
Although nothing beats a hands on instructor, there are great tutorial videos on youtube which is the next best thing. I don't know which martial art you are interested in but if its Karate, look up Hirokazu Kanazawa's tutorial videos on youtube. You will learn a lot.

How to Train for Sparring?
I'm glad he admits that he's basically just playing tag, with hands and tappy kicks. Also thought it was funny when his coach said he does cardio to ''endure his 3 minute matches''. No offense to the guy, but point-karate or touch-karate just doesn't resemble real fighting at all. Every time he went in deep for a reverse punch I couldn't help but think how screwed he'd be by someone delivering a decent counter. You're probably discouraged from counter-punching because it would be too hard to pull back (due to Scott basically throwing his head into your fist). Another big vulnerability would be taking his legs out with a cut kick when he goes in laterally. And he'd be very shocked to realize that cross-parrying a Muay-thai roundhouse with one hand really doesn't work...
Also, their desperate desire to land one clean punch while not being touched even once completely eliminates the close-quarters aspect of striking. He wouldn't have a clue what to do in the pocket, or if he gets cornered. His shell wouldn't be tight, and he wouldn't have good body hooks or uppercuts.
I'm not saying Karate doesn't work, but the old art of self-defense is being replaced by a similar-looking game/sport; and they're not adapting to the changing landscape. Oh well, it's not all bad. With his training background, he could probably be a decent stand-up fighter within a year if he changed disciplines.
He's not just a sport fighter, he actually practices wado-ryu karate. He's not specifically training to be a mma or muay thai fighter so its not fair to compare the styles but he could hold his own for a little while. The way he would handle a street fight vs a sport fight is very different
Steve Thompson was a point karate fighter
@@saintdockery5740 No, Stephen Thompson did full-contact kickboxing - a RADICALLY different sport. Still Karate, but with you know, actual kicks and punches.
@@sensam6155 no he started in point fighting
@@sensam6155point karate pulls punches. After some karate training I tried kickboxing, and realized I could hit just as hard, if not harder, than kickboxers my size. I came to this video because I just briefly met Scott in karate training and was impressed by athleticism.
i only push the easy button

Some green eyed monsters on here me glad for the man he is going to represent his country well done mate.👏👏👊👊
I bet the critics on here get out of breath getting off the sofa to get more junk food
Nice armpit hair.
It’s not a fuckin’ ring it is a tatami
Really Hope Olympic Karate doesn't go the way of WTF taekwondo
danceswithrats WTF!
Law Farrell World Taekwondo Federation(olympic style TKD)
It probably will. big associations and olympics are usually terrible from the martial arts perspective.
I hope that karate will never be an olympic sport.
Some of this is good and some of 8it is a total waste of time ....for Karate
His karate looks week (point fighting )
@Ryder E nar i zoned OUT!!
Does look alil lacking ..
I used to think that, but after three years of karate I disagree. He’s just pulling his punches.
this guy would get devastated by an amateur mma fighter...
a collage wrestler would fuck him up
Dont compare two different disciplines together. If you like or practice martial arts, you should know this!
Plus MMA is good sport but way too aggressive in my opinion. It's a bad combination of different forms (karate, kickboxing,bjj).
Karate is gay
Idk. I feel karate in the 80s/90s was better . Kenpo and BKF fighters were awesome .
He is training for Olympics not the UFC
Go talk to Judd Reid. That dude is the real deal. Kyokushin is real karate.
This dweeb isn't even doing a good workout. Just this "functional" nonsense.
@@zeke1835 "functional" just means no hard work.
@@kaboose111 I'm assuming your saying that because you've never actually tried this workout. As somebody who did these workouts with the same coach and on the same team with Tom years ago, its a lot harder than it looks and he doesn't just do these types of workouts. Everybody on the team participates in an HIIT sprint training along with hours of sparring and working on kata. Hell, my first day of training on "initiation day" (around 6 years and 4 weeks ago) started at 6:15am with teamwork endurance training with wooden logs and ended at 2:00 pm with HIIT sprints. Obviously he's putting in the work otherwise he wouldn't be ranked as one of the top karate athletes in the world (6th), so your argument that functional means no hard work is dead wrong. Its not like doing a bench press or 300lb squat is going to help him win matches. Like I said earlier his workouts directly translate to the sport so technically "functional" means working smarter not harder.
Nice exercises , but it’s not puncher , it’s a dancer ))
I dont think this man should be a black belt
