I serious. I went down to play basketball. You know, I was a basketball player It snowed and when it snowed in the East fucking coast it snowed for two days a lot to city up There was so the buses instead of running every 15 minutes. They were like every two hours So I think I got a ride down there, but on the way back everything freezes up against nighttime. It's dark and I'm not hitchhiking I'm just waiting for the bus and some dude pulls over and he fucking and
Starting point is 00:03:58 He went to hit the ball and when he went to touch he goes you like basketball And they went to hit the boy he slipped and grabbed my cock and at the next fucking light God was in the car because the door just opened up and I ran out of the car and I ran across the street to Schützen Park. I tell you this last week No, no, no, I think I've heard this story about the basketball before I ran across the street to Schützen Park Schützen Park is an old fucking German place that I grew up with it's a banquet hall and then they have a soccer field And when I was a kid we played baseball back there, but every once in a while the chef They called him the cook or something the chef or whatever he come back there with a hacker and a dog and
Starting point is 00:04:38 Sick the dog on you and we'd be with motorcycles back there, but they also had a soccer stadium and they had What's that metal that you sell sheet metal as a roof? So people could sell into the sheet metal when we found out we're gonna build a sheet dog If you go to that stadium right now if it rains those motherfuckers are fucked Every piece of fucking sheet metal that one piece at a time we go up then we were 13 We knew nothing about nothing, but we knew if we got a piece of sheet metal We could chop it four ways. It's 25 bucks when you're fucking 13 That's a little bag of reefer eight pack of beer a couple hits of acid pretty smart. Yeah, maybe an album and shit
Starting point is 00:05:15 So we went back there. It was a German place. I ran in that just known so I hid behind a snow pile And I took like a bottle and waited for him to drive and but he never Had a bottle just waiting to crack just ready to throw it at him with the window open and run get him good and run the fucking Ronald maybe call the cops or whatever. See he didn't know the back of that Place like I knew I had grown up in those fucking woods. I caught ringworm every summer I knew those woods like the back of my fucking hand. I really did man So if you chase me into those woods you were dead man, you were not gonna find me because I knew those woods. Yeah, man it's like
Starting point is 00:05:52 Fort Jackson, South Carolina my group on Fort Jackson, South Carolina for a long time and man the woods over there That was like our home. That's your home. That's our stomping ground. That's just how you know everything in there We knew all the trees. Yeah, where the creek was we're to cross the creek everything done. It was cool Somebody chases you they're fucking done Leave him in the traps and stuff won't stop now I mean we just got that picture today on Twitter stuff changes all the time Well, do you think you can still go in those woods? Like we got that picture of hash ways That's now something yeah, it's a cuban place. It's a cuban place. I knew that I knew I went
Starting point is 00:06:24 I didn't go into nobody has gone into that cuban restaurant because it was like Like a 40-year restaurant in my hometown like a deli and it was a liquor store deli and they opened up a cuban place in there and Nobody's got like everybody I talked to my cash for anything. I know it. Have you been to the moon? No, no I drive by I never see anybody in there People won't go in there because it meant so much to us. It was like Arnold's in happy days Where'd you grow up you grew up everywhere, right? I love it man. You have a good memory Joey. No, I don't yeah
Starting point is 00:06:55 Yeah, I did. I was born in LA my mom remarried My stepfather was in the military. We moved to Germany, South Carolina Belgium back to Germany back to South Carolina then I'm in LA now. I remember you telling me stories as a kid in Belgium How you in Belgium in Belgium man, I didn't know what Belgium was when my dad was like we're getting stationed in Belgium I was like Belgium what language do they speak they speak two different languages they speak French and they speak Flemish Flemish Flemish. Yeah in the different regions, you know, I think Flemish is a combination of like Dutch and Some are gonna how long did you live there for four years man four years. So I move there smoke refill That is the first place I smoke and they have hash and every toss you kidding me man
Starting point is 00:07:44 And you know like in in Europe, that's all all they smoke right that's all they smoke man. So I Yeah, that was the first first thing I smoke was hash because I mean after that was only two hours away So like when I moved to Belgium, I was just like what do people what do we do here and people are like? Oh, we hang out in bars. I'm like, what are you talking about? Well, there's no drinking age It's just like that's the culture. You know what I mean? How old are you at that point 14 years old man? so like Not even lying man, you can ask any of my my friends on Facebook from shape Belgium We're hanging out in bars on the weekend man
Starting point is 00:08:18 You know the bars we would take the train two hours away to go to Amsterdam hang out on Amsterdam for the weekend They had a little hostel Sometimes even just like stay up all night or and sleep in a little corner in the street or something, you know But yeah, man, that's all they smoked over there was hash And then they had these little bars outside of the base that we used to hang out in and you know, it's crazy It's like every just about everybody smoked everybody drank and everything but everybody in in my High school graduated. There was like no teenage pregnancies. There were no fights ever Not crazy
Starting point is 00:08:49 You think cuz of the reefer. I don't know man I've never I never smoked a smoke to join or anything and then want to punch somebody in the face I mean either It's the worst when you get high and somebody ruins your fucking high with dumb shit I was just sitting here minding my own fucking business What was it like when like when you because you said he came back and forth to the US a couple times Uh-huh after being a 14 year old in a bar and and doing that and then coming back in 14 year olds are Are going on play dates in the backs of vans like it was a weird it is madness is it's different
Starting point is 00:09:23 It was culture shock because I lived in I lived from 14 years old to like 19 years old in Germany and Belgium So everything is this man. It's like culture shock. So for eight years I was over there And then I went right back to South Carolina, which is like the Bible Belt, you know So it was it was different man, you know, it's different and I had just barely turned and I was just I was 20 years old when I moved back to South Carolina, so then um, I Couldn't even drink at that time and I remember I remember my my brother a lot took me to a strip club whenever when I would when I turned 21. Yeah, so
Starting point is 00:09:57 It's different man, you know, like I've been I've walked around Amsterdam from the time I was 14 the strip club It's really weird when you change cultures like I always tell Lee We grew up in a big place like he grew up in Boston. I grew up in Jersey, you know, I was in that fucking big city every goddamn day So it's really weird when I left New York, I stopped doing a lot of this shit. I stopped doing because I wouldn't Get the satisfaction bolder in Colorado had other things to offer me other than New York So you have to when you went in Rome, you know, I'm saying, yeah, you know
Starting point is 00:10:33 When I went to Boulder at first and I went to ask my first something I'm not gonna ski and I'm like, what what am I an asshole? Yeah, what am I a fucking asshole? I'm coming back here with this mentality. You know, yeah Like when I went to Sarasota that time I got in trouble as a kid when I was 19 I had to go on the land for a few months and I went to Sarasota I was in shock Like the kid I was staying with was my age and we had gone to high school together now He's living in Sarasota and he had gone to high school in Sarasota for like three years
Starting point is 00:11:05 And I went to visit him and it was like this is what you fucking do He's like, yeah, we go to the beach and sing songs. Are you fucking crazy? Are you fucking retarded? You know, it was so weird the culture shock like when I went from even New York City to Snowmass village and I would go to those bars at night and I go this is not gonna work This is not gonna work I know you don't remember but did your mom ever talk about going from Cuba to New York City because I can't imagine you were what six Three three from Havana to fucking Manhattan. Wow. Can you imagine I wish you I wish you had a journal or something I don't remember
Starting point is 00:11:43 Nothing like nothing like this. I remember looking at a beach That's it. That's all I remember about Cuba beach when I was a kid. I had more memories like I would tell my mom I remember my dad and Cuba driving but Now that shit's gone. You know, but definitely want to go to Cuba. It's supposed to be One of the top places to go for single men Yeah, because you could fuck hookers for two hours Yeah, I was just easy to find a girlfriend over there or something. No, no, there's no girlfriends over there The girlfriends you meet stay over there
Starting point is 00:12:13 Unless you want to bring back some chick that tomorrow to me eight On the ranch and now as they ship the back to Cuba to get ready Yeah, man, you know, I think I had the most culture shock is whenever I moved from South Carolina to LA man I was just I was like wow People could sense that I was still wet behind the years, man But when I met you I banged you for East LA right off the fucking bat Did you really right off the bat and then I'm like a guy and the guy said you had a school Somewhere so I'm the guy, you know the guy that's hurt right now the big guy Anthony Anthony. Yeah, yeah
Starting point is 00:12:48 And he said he trained with you before yeah, and that uh, so I see all him He's a Mexican looking dude. You're a Mexican looking dude. I put together you think you think I look Mexican really? Yeah, sometimes I never get that man. I never get that people in your voice people ask me, you know What do they fucking ask you? I'm like a I'm like a chameleon. I've I've had people think I was Armenian So I think I mean when I tell people I'm I'm like I'm half Mexican to have Spanish So they're like really I wouldn't have guessed that I've had a guy tell me I was thought I was Filipino Because my dad my dad actually looks like he's Filipino he could pass for a Filipino He's like shorter and darker than me
Starting point is 00:13:26 But yeah, I had the most culture shock whenever I moved from South Carolina to to LA in which way I'm sorry man I just you know, I've never been around gangs. I've never been around crime or anything, man And like when I moved into my first little pad over here My my pad was Rob and and I just remember like coming home And I had this new dvd player and and every time I would drive home Man, there would be like these two little cholos just like sitting there like looking at me like this And I just be like, what are these fools doing? They're casing out my pad, man They're casing out my pad. So when I came home one day, man, my all my stuff was gone
Starting point is 00:13:59 Well, it's scary, but when you're moving they know man, they're they're smart, dude You're smart. They're smart, but then like I got lucky when I moved here Or that just get to west LA like no because I you'd look for apartments and it'd be like Baldwin Hills Or like I know Compton's not good But there's some areas that like aren't good and there's no like there's There was a guy apparently when Paul is still lived in my girlfriend lived in Inglewood She was like as white white like me and just moved in there to go to college in the wood Yeah
Starting point is 00:14:26 But I'm there. I don't even think I've ever been. Yeah, maybe I have did you like this off? Because I I I only got to spend like a week or so in the south. I like I drove through it I loved everyone was so nice and laid back. It seemed great because you're white. That's also probably true that's probably like, uh I lived there as a kid too like we I forgot about like I was born here. We moved to Germany and moved to South Carolina So we lived in South Carolina for like seven years. So that's when I was like That's when I started getting like I really felt like a lot of racial tension over there
Starting point is 00:14:57 People would always ask me like, what are you, you know, they didn't know because it was either white or black over there You know, it was, you know, I have my You know, it was a trip, you know, I got bullied a lot too And that's what led to martial arts and everything too. So but I mean It's pretty boring, man, you know, I mean, it's just a different it's just a different um whole different lifestyle out there, man I like LA, you know, as soon as I came out to LA. I was like, this is where I was supposed to be the whole time Because I mean, this is where my roots are anyway, you know Despite the the robbing. Yeah. Yeah. Well, I was born here, you know, all my family's from here
Starting point is 00:15:30 My mother and my father were from here, you know, my sisters were born out here as well, you know When did you get into martial arts? How old were you? Man Like nine Like nine, ten. Over there. Yeah in South Carolina because and the whole reason was Was I was getting bullied all the time, man The brothers used to kick my ass, dude. I don't know why I was like the little Puerto Rican I think it was because the sisters liked me
Starting point is 00:15:58 You know, they like I was like the little cute Puerto Rican boy, you know, I was a little curly I used to have hair by the way everybody goes like when they see me with hair They're like, oh professor, you had hair before I had hair. I had a lot a lot of curly hair, man. So Uh black girls used to dig me, man, and I don't know I don't know why but man has to get my ass kicked I used to come home crying all the time and my parents, you know, my my dad my stepfather He was like from the avenues and he was like the fighter. He was the fighter guy, you know He boxed a little bit so he'd knock fools out. So he was like he knew how to fight, you know
Starting point is 00:16:27 And he was a he was a tough guy and my mom too. She was crazy, you know, she was from dog town And um, they used to get really pissed off man. They used to be like, why don't you fucking fight back? You know, you got to fight back and I'm like, I'm scared. I'll be crying and shit, you know, and and then they know like I think I was scared because they were black too, you know, like, you know Intimidating out there was very intimidating for me, man. They're like, you know what everybody believes red My mom would say, you know, and then finally I came home one day, man crying again. And they're like, that's it, man You know, we got you got to stick up here. So we got to do something. So they took me at that time Taekwondo was blowing up
Starting point is 00:17:05 Taekwondo was just it was like on the verge of blowing up. So they took me to um Moreland's Taekwondo Academy and master more than he's this black guy that lived in Korea. He was stationed in Korea in the army and um He spoke fluent Korean man, and he was he was like a master of Taekwondo man He took it. He used to come pick us up in his little Taekwondo van on base and pick all the kids up in the neighborhood He would take us over there train us. He would kick our ass And then we'd all be crying in the van on the way home like we're all like such little whizzes, man
Starting point is 00:17:36 It was funny. We all like Because he would spar with us, man. I know when I look back, we're just we're just pussy's basically man We're just whiner. We're little babies, man, you know, he he never he We thought it was he was beating us up. He really wasn't man. We're just like scared, you know But um, man, he toughened me up, man It took me a couple years because even after take taking taekwondo for a couple years I still hadn't really grown up and got that confidence yet, you know so, um
Starting point is 00:18:02 I was like a late bloomer, man But yeah, I did taekwondo with mastermoreland for for like the whole time. I was in south carolina and hopkido And then um, then we moved to belgium. I did some taekwondo over there played a little football played a little baseball You know Partied a little bit moved to germany and then I would train at like little local Smokled places, you know at little clubs here and there But it's the one thing that I kept it with my whole life and as soon as I got back to LA I went right back with my old master mastermoreland. He's in atlanta now shout out
Starting point is 00:18:33 But he was he was like legendary in south carolina They used to call him gust man because he kicked like a mule Like he used to get one of those heavy bags and it was so impressive He used to impress my dad who could fight, you know, he would kick the bag man so hard Have you ever punched a heavy bag? Yeah This guy would kick the heavy bag so hard in the middle it would fold in half man I still can't do that to this day You know, but they used to call him gust man. He was like he was he was pretty legendary back there, but he's um
Starting point is 00:18:59 He was awesome, man I have some really really awesome memories with that guy man He was like a good very good looking black You know, he looked like marvin gay man and he could sing like him too, but now he looks like marvin gay with dreads now He's awesome though, man. I still I still like uh aspire to be as great as him He you know, he's he's even hopkido and taekwondo man. He Man, he's steven segalia. You're ass, you know, I gave you a black belt He gave me my black belt. Yeah, man. And then when did jiu-jitsu come into the game jiu-jitsu, man? Um, I'm gonna say
Starting point is 00:19:30 Probably like round 94 94 what happened was like, you know, I had already had a black belt taekwondo hopkido I had a brown black and another uh, korean martial art called kooksul So I was at that point I had plenty of street fights and I won mostly like on my athleticism and my speed and stuff Like I don't think I ever used actual taekwondo or hopkido techniques in a street fight but um, what happened I started bouncing at this bar in Columbia, South Carolina called group therapy and um I got lucky man, and I I
Starting point is 00:20:01 I escorted some guys out like like steven segalia style, you know, like like that So then after that the the head bouncer would always like want me to escort people out just so they could see Joey like steven segalia people, you know And so this one night, man, I'll never forget this day because it changed my life forever, man Um, it was packed and scott finnelli was like joey watch this guy right here. He's causing a lot of problems And he was like when I give you the signal just get him out of there So he gave me the signal and I said, hey man, I you got to get out of here You know because you're causing too much trouble. He's like if you you know, blah, blah, blah, blah
Starting point is 00:20:30 Oh, listen, man, I'm gonna escort you out and he was like lucky you try it, you know And I don't even know how we wrestled outside of the door But as soon as we got outside on the concrete, he took me to the ground And he mounted me man And I had never done anything on the ground before man ever I'd never been in that position before and I'll never forget. He was in full mount He cocked his arm back to punch me and I just remember going Helpless I was like a fish out of water. I was just totally helpless and I was going to I'm gonna get my face pounded in
Starting point is 00:21:00 And I'll never forget this guy scott swindle He was a bartender. He must have hopped over the bar and he grabbed that guy's hand in the last minute And I was just like And then all the other bouncers were just kind of looking like damn that guy was about to beat joey's ass, you know what I mean And I was just like wow, man. I couldn't I couldn't sleep, you know, and I started questioning everything I ever did And I was like, you know what man, um I don't think I know how to fight, you know, I don't think I know how to fight what the hell You know, I have all these black belts and I can't fight like that's crazy some crazy redneck guy
Starting point is 00:21:30 Was about to kick my ass, you know, so then I started researching Uh martial arts and I think it might have been like black belt magazine or something that and I saw this ad fight like a navy seal And I was like, you know what if it's good enough for the seals It must be pretty damn good because the seals are some bad motherfuckers, you know So, uh, I ordered those vhs tapes vhs tape And all all he was this guy frank coochie man. He was a navy seal. He was still team six man the legendary still team six found still Still in all this guy man of what what he's done and everything, you know, and he how he served our country and stuff
Starting point is 00:22:04 He's Anyway, he probably doesn't remember who I was man. I had a hair back then and everything I sent him messages on facebook and he never replies. He's probably like who's this fucking guy, you know But man that guy changed my life like I got his videos and it was in the video. He's just teaching like muay thai jujitsu and some filipino stick a knife biting like collie because I guess, you know Seals have knives and stuff like that And I was like, wow, I was like, I never seen People kick each other in the legs or I never seen like muay thai before I never seen filipino martial arts
Starting point is 00:22:34 I know I was like, this is some crazy shit. I never seen jujitsu man on the ground, you know, I was like, wow, this is crazy You know, did you know it was jujitsu that he was Doing on you or no, I did just because he was talking about it in the video, you know Oh, no, I meant like when you got it attacked or when the guy mounted. No, no, no, no, no No, no that guy that was that guy was like just street style man. He was he was just like one of those short Cock strong motherfuckers man, you know, like just like I locked onto him. I remember going goddamn this guy's strong, you know I don't even know how I got out the door But I don't know what he did to take me down and remember how how I got to the ground man
Starting point is 00:23:04 It was just so it was just like I was like what the hell's going on man. I didn't know anything about jujitsu. I never heard of brazilian jujitsu I never heard of fighting. There was a martial art that focused on the ground, you know, that's how I was just in this little whole Uh, like I I thought Korean martial arts were the best martial arts. You know what I mean? I was just all Korean martial arts. I was eating eating kimchi all the time and shit But uh, it just so happened that that Frank's gym was in virginia beach and I started dating a Filipino girl That was up there and I was like, oh man. I'm just gonna kill two birds one stone
Starting point is 00:23:39 So I started taking lessons from him And that's when I started my jujitsu and wutai journey and I did back then I was doing some Filipino stick and knife fighting And um, I would drive I would drive up to virginia beach and then I had a couple friends that I was like, hey, man this you know Let's work on this shit, you know, this guy Philip Willis and another guy that that has a Jimmy's had a gym over in um, South Carolina for a long time mark mills And um, I pretty much I If you ask mark, I think I was the first person doing jujitsu in South Carolina
Starting point is 00:24:09 I don't there was nobody doing jujitsu in 94. He wasn't even doing he was doing like Uh, dan and asanto stuff, you know, like, you know, dan grew down. He does a little bit of everything But they're doing more like shoot wrestling and stuff like that, you know, so he did a little shoot wrestling, but You know jujitsu is a far Superior grappling earth and shoot wrestling, you know, it's a little bit more it's a little bit more developed So like at that time like the little jujitsu I knew I could tap him, you know, I mean and I ain't no shit Dude, I just knew like six moves, you know, I mean because that's all I would do He'd give me three moves that would videotape on come back and we work on those three moves
Starting point is 00:24:42 You know, I mean, but we got really good man because we we would master those those three moves, you know I mean I could arm bar anybody back then, you know But yeah, so that's how I started man and then um, I was reunited with my biological father after like 26 years Which brought me back out here. Turns out he was like a world-class boxer It's crazy, man. It's crazy. I have a I'm gonna write a book one day I'm giving you like the the short version
Starting point is 00:25:10 So then I came out here my dad taught me how to train me to box for a couple years And they opened the machado academy and then I started with them and he can he can give me my blue belt We're just talking about he can and then I continued my tutelage with hozier And I had it took me like more or less Like almost 20 years. I mean, you know, I had to stop for a couple years for certain reasons, you know but I started 94 and 20 years later I got a black belt from hozier, you know I had to take seven years off because I fought professional MMA for like seven years, you know, I didn't have time to train ski
Starting point is 00:25:40 You know, I had a full-time job and I was fighting and running a gym too, you know, so But yeah, that's when I started like probably back in um, like when I was 10 Jiu-jitsu back in like 94 ish I'm really bad with dates, man. So no, it's a long fucking journey. It's a long man. It's long. It's crazy You brought something up. That's really interesting Is like let's say you learn traditional karate And you go there three four times a week your spa you go to tournaments and you go there For seven years eight years nine years you get your black belt and you leave their feeling like, you know
Starting point is 00:26:15 Same thing with taekwondo or hop keto or You know, and that's why like years ago I was 418 pounds. I joined weight watch. I didn't know what to do But my life was everywhere. I just cleaned up in the drugs. I said, you know what? My life went down the tubes when I quit martial arts. I'm gonna give it a whiz And I really looked into a program, you know, I really looked into different programs And I was sold on kenpo. I really like the kenpo the the the thing That's not a bad martial arts the old school kenpo. Well, like what ed parker
Starting point is 00:26:49 Yes with the leg the guy I talked to him. I talked about him when frank me was here My buddy called he goes. Hey, he wants you to call him. I think he's mad at you for talking about this a guy up and in Frank Santos and he teaches a real old school type kenpo And his teacher was one of the ed parker guys that went to jail for murder and like glendale some david something and I like that style, but It was only two days a week and it was at odd times and
Starting point is 00:27:20 And I said, I gotta get something and then I was interested in the program But it was all the way in marina del rey And that just that's just not when you live in hollywood that just not gonna work for me Yeah, but hollywood man, like that's like I mean l.a. It's kind of like the mecca. Oh mecca martial arts Yeah, so they have anything closer. No, I found this. I was shooting this hundred-dollar day movie I didn't want to fucking shoot. I read neg done it since day one. They wanted to do rehearsals Are you shitting on my front allows a day dog mad flavor? Don't do rehearsals. All right. I ain't rehearsed I just show up and I fucking do it
Starting point is 00:27:51 And I saw some dude. I said, oh, there's a little black dude and uh He told me he's been training, you know I go away. Go and he goes like go to the style. Nobody's really heard. It's called one hop window Oh, no, I know who that is. That's like, uh What one hop window that's um marked mark the cascus mark the cascus only the strong So, uh I went to a guy that he had it was the the cascus his father's first black belt It's two brothers. It was his father that right that developed that martial arts, which is a great martial art
Starting point is 00:28:25 Not tell you why I have no it's the same thing you're talking about what it is is what this fucking guy did was he took Boxing to start off with okay. He took boxing. He took some circular stuff from kung fu like kicks He also took some stuff from Ty So this you move to the side and you kick the leg a lot of leg kicks in this He threw some campo in there So after you kick the leg and you land the knee hits that spot and you trick the guy You know, he took a couple nice kicks that keep you interested
Starting point is 00:28:57 But everything's very low everything in that school is the waist down The only thing that comes at you is a straight side kick to the solar plex. I mean leg wise kicking wise leg wise Yeah, everything is very conservative in that art and for a month at a time There's times you go there and they give you sticks and it's a fucking drag But you do everything with the sticks And there's a whole process to it Like what teaches you range First she gives you sticks for a month. Then he gives you knife for a month
Starting point is 00:29:27 Then he makes you do the same movements with your hands So it was really weird that I had been a a subak dou guy for six years I had been a goju karate guy. I learned itch and rue karate for six years and not one fucking person ever mentioned range But the other thing he had in this art was That he finished you off Half jujitsu the problem with this guy was when he was 53 He had studied all this stuff and then six years ago. They added jujitsu into the mix
Starting point is 00:29:59 Simple stuff side control and americana You know side control the choke, but nothing was taught with good technique. Nothing was really my point is That at least this guy taught Something one hop window. I was very I think about him a lot. He's on my facebook page I really do I think of him a lot. It's just a man, you know, it sounds like he was a pretty smart guy The problem is his class that he's black So the class starts at 10, but he don't jump from quarter to 11 I'm out of I'm supposed to be out of there by 11 30. We're still doing jumping jackson 11 30
Starting point is 00:30:33 Some days you walk out of there 115. That's good some days when you're bored. Yeah, you know He's such an old school martial artist that there's really no clock People just bowing out every I feel like two hours people start bowing out But my point is that It's so funny. His little fucking class has made me fall in love with jujitsu. That's cool, man Yeah, I was friends with eddie for all that time But his you know, because sometimes you gotta take the guy down So kick again. I remember doing it going. Oh my god
Starting point is 00:31:03 If I ever got into this situation I'm a dead man I was 418 pounds. I couldn't do anything And it took me a year after I quit that because we moved we moved to the valley and again I started getting busy. I started shooting my name is earl and I'm getting there at fucking 10 o'clock stretching out at quarter to 10 And you know, you know me dog. I try to get that 10 15 minutes early You want to stretch out a little bit and this guy's showing up? He showed up at 10
Starting point is 00:31:31 But also we get into a talking challenge with the whole class people come visit him That would drive me crazy people come visit him when he's teaching you can't come visit Alberto when he's teaching When you talk to you you got a whistle and you want to show him pictures that would not happen at like So he's a show but let me tell you something his fucking style is what I'm saying That was I was thinking about what would happen to you And now when you go to different karate tournaments and you go, what do you think I want to have? All people laugh at those guys
Starting point is 00:32:00 They go they're tournament guys. You know what they're tournament guys because that's how they train you to be Everything is real quick sidekick punch backhand. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah take down. Boom. You're out of that You know for sure. Who the fuck knows what the fuck now kettle bells. When did this come into the picture kettle bells? um What does my shirt say 2009 probably like uh, this is I think that's when I released my first dvd probably a couple years before that, um I had first opened my gym so Cal MMA
Starting point is 00:32:30 So I really like the first real mma gym in the northeast L.A. area And had this little tiny gym and and um, I had this one business I had a bunch of business partners with that gym man. It was a freaking nightmare but um bill bill starry was like really awesome business partner man and um, we're just trying to figure out ways to To attract people different boot camps to have you know, I was already doing like a little boot camp, you know and And I have my own little repertoire of stuff. I did but you know, he was smart He was trying to attract people. So he was like, why don't we get a kettle bell coach? And um, I was like, man, that's a good idea. I was like I I've
Starting point is 00:33:08 seen those things I I was smart enough to know that you needed instruction for you know what I mean I didn't know what to do with one of those things, you know So then he got this one's one guy he did some research and he found some guy that was certified by Uh, a certain kettlebell organization, you know And he came in and he showed us like five moves man, you know, that's what we did for like six months like five moves And like at first people thought it was cool and I thought it was just awesome And I like I never did the kettlebell swing when I first did the kettlebell swing
Starting point is 00:33:37 I was like, wow man, this is a freaking crazy Exercise I like I love this exercise like why I like how how do I not know this exercise? And he showed us the Turkish get up and right away. I was like man This is just like doing when the first time I did the Turkish get up I was like, this is like doing the technical lift that we call it in jujitsu. I was like right away. I was like cool I dig it, but we we never we never really did anything else and and um And then people stopped coming to the class and I was just like, you know
Starting point is 00:34:03 I just light bulb popped up in my head one day and I was like, I think you could do some jujitsu moves with this kettlebell thing You know, I started researching different Kettlebell instructors like Steve Maxwell and Steve Carter. Those those guys are Are really really awesome, you know, like they were like my influences, you know, and they were doing stuff a little bit different Steve Carter was doing some like uh Some martial art influence stuff back in the day, but he's like a little bit more sport now Well, he's really into the sport aspect of it, you know But back in the day who I could see who was like experimenting with the whole
Starting point is 00:34:33 martial art as the martial art connection to kettlebells But nobody was really doing anything Really just I thought that was just like making kettlebells like the star of the show, you know, I was like you could do so many things with this and um Yeah, so I started experimenting with it with it. I started developing different movements with it and then um I was looking for some kettlebells to buy and I stumbled upon this website my mad methods And these guys had videos and I was like, wow, these guys are thinking outside of the box a little bit, you know They weren't doing what I was doing
Starting point is 00:35:06 But they were still doing different things I just I realized in the kettlebell community people were afraid to do Something different other than those five moves, you know, because that's how these these people kind of programmed them You could only do the moves all the all you need is these moves. So that swings Turkish get up swings that let's Turkish get up Snatches snatches are like The be all and then all it's kind of us Yeah, that's real basic real basic nothing really fun and they weren't really putting together
Starting point is 00:35:30 I always felt like I got a workout from the waist down I never felt like it was incorporating a lot of upper body and stuff like that And I wanted things to be more like MMA style because that's what I at the time I was still Was I still finding MMA? I think I may I may have just retired or whatever, but I had an MMA gym I wanted to be like an MMA workout like You know, the circuit train was really in with kettle with uh mixed martial artists, you know making everything anaerobic, you know So that's that's how I wanted to do it. So that's how I started making my workouts, you know incorporating
Starting point is 00:36:00 All your body you're pushing you're pulling you're using your legs you're using your core, you know, that's how That's how it is when you're fighting, you know, you're using everything So that's how I wanted to structure the workouts and I did anyway. I met mark I bought about kettlebells from him and then I was like, hey man, I've been developing this This program I call kettle jitsu or whatever I'd like you to see some of the moves and tell me what you think, you know Because I knew he had been doing kettlebell stuff a long long long before me And I started doing some stuff on the ground and he was just like his eyes
Starting point is 00:36:29 He said you mind if I film it and I was like, no, go ahead and he was like and his eyes just got big He was like, dude, we need to do a dvd. And I was like, really? I was like, cool, man. I was like, really? I didn't know if he was serious. I was like really at dvd. I was like, wow, man that's like huge, you know so, um We did man and we my first dvd was called combat kettlebell systems and uh I mean, we weren't like p90x status, but man Nobody had ever seen anything anything and people doing jiu-jitsu kettlebell moves with uh on the ground jiu-jitsu moves and
Starting point is 00:37:01 People had never seen anything on the ground other than the turkish get up really, you know so I know you can't get on like the table and do a move but Is it like are you doing? Oh, yeah, maybe do it like is it like is it like uh Explain what a move would be look up combat kettlebell system. Can you do that? Uh, we might get pulled down even though you're here Oh, no, don't worry about it. No, but yeah, yeah, uh, you could see the if you see in the video But um, like one one of the first moves. I think it was hippest the hip escape We're just talking about the hip escape, right? But like my my master hajra always called it a snake move
Starting point is 00:37:32 Why always see you you hold the kettlebell right here and you're getting the like the basic position And you just do a hip escape and push out a little bit. Yeah. Is that what you're doing? Yeah, yeah, you could do that your hip You do it like that you could do about how many times on each side Oh, man, you know, like there's so many different ways you can structure workouts, you know You could just you could do it for reps. You could do it for time You know, you could do the circuits with it. You know, you could do so many different ways, man It's just like really like
Starting point is 00:37:57 kettlebell kettlebell and body weight is kind of like Like almost like a blank cabinets canvas, man. You could just do so many things, man It's just really only limited to your imagination. Now explain the body weight side to me. What kind of exercise are those? Body weight, man. Um, the same thing the same concept I use this is I try to make all the training Like use as many muscles as possible to make it like fighting because you know, like in jiu-jitsu after you after your role, man You've used just about every muscle. So that's how I structure on my structure. I kind of combine traditional
Starting point is 00:38:29 Body weight standards and I mix it up with uh Like sports specific Brazilian jiu-jitsu movements, you know And um, combine them into different flows and different circuits and you know, I could just go on man It's kind of hard to explain, you know But um, do you still incorporate swings to or is it all? Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah for sure, man For sure swings, but like, you know, like I do a lot of different swing variations Like I mean your your basic, you know, your basic swing variations. Yeah, like what? Well, the One-handed swing two-handed swing. There you go. You know, the name's good, man
Starting point is 00:39:03 Like that's better like joey's like that thing that thing No, but uh That one thing that I do You know I never I never know what he's talking about because he's always like, you know, I do that one thing when you do this and do that other thing It's you know, how I use how they have like a puzzle and it like slowly reels itself That's what joey like he gets through it. He's like the thing
Starting point is 00:39:27 The thing with the kettlebell. Is that is that your is that your word thing? I don't know. I have to listen like I tell people after one o'clock you're on your wrong It's gotten earlier than two o'clock. Yeah, it's all over Yeah, the enduring I'm 53 the endurance has gone down. You know, yeah used to be after two likes I get calls now. Remember that dog. You called me at home at five. You're doomed I'm sitting on that chair without my schedule in front of me. I don't know what you're talking about but they And you'll just yes, I'm gonna death. That's my that's your next shirt, please. Yes, I'm gonna death You gotta yes, I'm the death. What happened that thing. That's another shirt with a kettlebell that thing that thing
Starting point is 00:40:07 Yeah, but what I like what we're asking about swings. Yeah, I do do swings But just doing like those swings alone get boring swings one-handed swings. So like I like to do I like to mix it up man, you know try to incorporate like uh walking swings hopping swings walking swings walking swings, brother Do you still swing through your legs? Yeah, man But you you take a step forward as you swing you pop your hips up take a foot step forward and then you Do it again. You go back and forth back and forth back and forth Like if you go on my instagram, just look up kettle jitsu you guys can see me doing just about all kinds of crazy stuff with kettlebells, you know, and then um Like I love high pulls man. You know how to do a high pull like the on the way to the snatch
Starting point is 00:40:45 Yeah, yeah, see and and then that's like how traditional people teach it like it's a precursor To the snatch but the way I do it. I do it more like you're throwing a punch So what you're doing is you're popping your hips and you're retracting retracting your arm back driving it and then you're punching it back out So man, like after you do like high pulls like that man shadow box and see how fast your hands are You know, it's it's it's it's doing the same movements that you use when you're punching man So I I throw punches with the kettlebells too. So But from a fighting stance. So I do swings from like a fighting stance. I do high pulls from a fighting stance 10 pot 10 pound kettlebells
Starting point is 00:41:20 um No, like I mean, you know, man, like people like put so much emphasis on way. I think I probably do uh Punching like 12 kilograms six kilogram I'll make excuse me 16 kilograms. That's about as high as I go with that 32 pounds You throw a punch at 32 pounds. Yeah, but you're using you're using the same mechanics as you do with the swing as well I'm gonna have to send you some footage, man. I thought you checked out my stuff Joey. I did. I didn't see that You know, it's yogi steve taught us. It's when you go back and you're bringing it up You know on the way to the snatch you just go bam. Yeah. Yeah, you just drive it. You just drive it back
Starting point is 00:41:53 Like well like the way Pop it up and then you just kind of drive your and you still bend your knees on the way down Yeah, yeah, you still do it. You don't bet you still hinge and still pop your hips and then But that's like the old school they kind of do it like because they don't really put too much emphasis on the high pull because They really want they're using that to teach you how to use the snatch more But I like to use the high pull as an exercise itself just because there's not too many moves where you can work a pulling Uh a hinging motion like a swing
Starting point is 00:42:24 A pulling motion like a row and a punching motion all in one exercise, you know, just using a pop pop Pop pop. I gotta I gotta show you how to do it, man. It's it's a cool exercise and it just it's it's really awesome And and it definitely helps out with your hands. Now when you're our worker, you said something very interesting. Okay You know, I read when I first started getting into calabasas. I read that nothing burns more calories than swings Like swings or it. Yeah, you said before that your your one hour class burns fucking more calories than Is like how many calories you're thinking on one hour? With the swings, it's you know, like this
Starting point is 00:43:05 Like I think one guy was wearing one of those heart rate heart rate monitors And I think we burned like 800 calories like this girl the other night. Uh my friend Jennifer she um She was wearing a heart rate monitor. I think she burned like 500, but she was stopping and stuff like that She's nursing like a little this little hip thing, but she kept stopping and she kept playing She kept fucking around with that that heart monitor because it kept moving around, you know So she burned like like 500. I remember my cousin burned like 800. So yeah, you know a lot of colors That's just amazing. Yeah, man. I'm telling you man. It's no joke, you know, like the swings, you know, like when I remember when I first learned swings
Starting point is 00:43:41 Man, I was breathing heavy and I was like, wow, I never did that before But then, you know, if you keep doing swings or two-handed swings over and over and over and over You know, it's just not going to have that same effect because your body just gets used to it You know, I mean, that's why you got to mix it up mix up Absolutely and do different things because your body just gets used to everything really quick So that's why I'm always doing like like say for instance this week What is our swing variation this week the swing variation we're using is just alternating swings Um, and then next week or last week we're doing the walking swings
Starting point is 00:44:11 And then, um, you know, like figure eights, you know, I do figure eights and figure eight to a hold And then I have another one where I do a hooking punch with a figure eight. It's called a fighter's figure eight Man, I just it's just never ending man. I'm always I'm always, you know You know, I'm naturally creative. So I'm always trying to, you know, push the envelope a little bit, man you know, I take I take being a trainer very seriously because People don't want to come to you and do the same shit over and over and over again You know, that's a that's a fact man. I've learned that that's one of the things I learned I remember the whole reason I started researching other other, um
Starting point is 00:44:44 exercise programs and stuff like that was because I remember This one of my longtime students let the man and she was just a beast man she was like a really good volleyball player in high school like 511 kick like a freaking mule and um, She turned to me one day. She was like, can we do something different? You know, and I was like, whoa, shit, man, you know, I better like step up my game, you know So I never want to have another student tell me that again, man I can we do something different and like and it hasn't it hasn't man because every week is going to be something different You know, so like you might not see that workout that we did this this week
Starting point is 00:45:16 You won't see that workout again for another few months So by the time I teach that workout again, it's going to seem like a whole new thing to those people again You know what I mean? So that that's how I I structure, you know, it's variety man variety is extremely important, dude You know to retain clients I have clients that have been with me for like six years that followed me From like Highland Park to Burbank and they make that drive man, you know, that's a pain in the ass, you know I drive back and forth like a few times a day, but you know, it's no big deal, man
Starting point is 00:45:42 but um When you have a full-time job like a regular job and stuff like that stuff man, but I have students That have been with me five six years that drive up To Burbank at 5 30 morning to be with me To train, you know, it's a huge compliment to me, man. I love that man like loyalties. That's I love that man. So um And that's I think that's part of the reason why because it's always something different, man You know, it's always something different. You got to keep things fresh for people man. If you don't then it'll be
Starting point is 00:46:08 Um difficult to retain them man. That's why jujitsu is so awesome is because man You never you could never learn everything in jujitsu You just can't do it man is always going to be something new man always something new You know, so that's what makes it exciting is like, you know, man No matter what man, I've been training 20 years man over 20 years and New techniques are being developed all the time. I went to a meeting my game is changing all the time I went to a meeting a couple weeks ago
Starting point is 00:46:33 and In that meeting I came up on an idea. I said, you know, there's restaurant critics And there's disc critics. I go give me a job. Why go into any fucking place? That's santa lazaro big fucking dude in cuba. Don't go to cuba and say fuck santa lazaro They'll find you pieces in some of these sandwich Those are the dogs. Anyway, it's really weird. I love going to places like if I go to a Lumbiard and they don't take care of me the proper way I don't get mad, but I think about guys likely. I think about joe america who really believes that he's going to go to
Starting point is 00:47:10 Uh What's the colds? I don't know. I'm just I'm just saying the name of a hardware store And they're gonna take care of him from A to Z. You know, I have an office. I don't know what the fuck to do How big is the officer? You know, it's a big difference of me going Hey, take a look at that and see what you like and walking away It's the guy that goes hold on one second. How big is your office? Why do you want to use brick? What kind of lights are you gonna use? I didn't think of lights leave you
Starting point is 00:47:34 I thought about lights joy. Remember I said That sounds like a guy that's taking pride in his taking his pride in his job I go to a restaurant the same thing. I'm watching the waiter. I went someplace the other day and while I was eating I knew I was making a mistake. You know why because there was fingerprints on the glass Anytime I go to a place and there's fingerprints on the glass of a restaurant. That's not good That tells me that 10 in it 10 people in there didn't have the initiative to wipe the fingerprint off the fucking glass That's a bad move. That means you don't clean the bathroom. That means you don't wipe your ass That means you leave your house without taking a shower. It all fits hand in fucking hand
Starting point is 00:48:08 Yeah, man, if they're not cleaning the glass, what what else are they're not cleaning, man? I love going to places and for me feeling at home and comfortable and stuff, you know, uh Vmak was very a great jujitsu place and just my hours didn't accommodate their hours and vice versa I feel bad that I can't go there at night, but I'm not a night jujitsu guy My life is I have other things at night. Tonight the class starts at 9 15 You know, yeah, by the time you get out of there, you're walking around fucking breathing heavy at two in the fucking morning Still, you can't sleep. Yeah, so I gotta be on the fuck. You know, I ain't I gotta be in the fucking plane So
Starting point is 00:48:46 Yeah, you're breathing you ever go to jujitsu really on the way home even after you take a shower You should be breathing a little heavy. Oh, yeah When the fighter is giving the fucking interview even after the fight 10 minutes He's still breathing heavy at the fucking press conference now. He's sweating your endorphins are kicking in your endorphins Yeah, you know, so so it's true. You I can't be up till two in the morning. I get angry I come in now. I'm thinking about a move who fucking says it me. I gotta talk to professor about the fucking What's when they put on the butterfly sweep or what's when they do this shit? Do you end up like fucking?
Starting point is 00:49:18 They put the arms in your sleep What's this thing that thing when they put that when they put their fucking feet on you Oh, that's part of God. You go home while scratching your head. What the fuck was that? I'm not even gonna have a protein drink tonight. You know It's true So I've been going over there by you guys and like I told somebody say they were like dog. They have tech fit They got that you know
Starting point is 00:49:43 Alberto's a genius because yeah, man, you know, if you go someplace else the kickbox And they got jujitsu and you like the jujitsu you're gonna leave. Yeah. Yeah, he has everything for you You're a smart man. He's smart. You can't go in there and say well, you know what? I just want to do jumping jacks and sit-ups. I got the class for you Show up at day 45. We'll do 15 minutes. I'll say he's got everything tick fit No g g And you leave there and you look at me on hour or all these other schools You know what? I don't have an hour when I have some times
Starting point is 00:50:13 But sometimes I do sometimes I got all day to fucking burn time mondays I don't monday I gotta be in and out of there and in and out of there, you know And sometimes it breaks your heart because you got I'm not leaving at 12 45 You know, I'm not leaving at 20 if I can't make the whole class I just won't fucking go if I can't get to the beginning. I don't fucking go. I can't walk in that late That's part of the whole fucking thing. Somebody was telling me they did something and and uh He was really embarrassed how
Starting point is 00:50:41 people The students because I showed up and the students were showing up 20 minutes late My friend went to redondo beach and he took some of his people down to the train And he said his students showed up late. He never thought about how rude that is And I go don't that's always rude when somebody walks and I get it. There's some people get off at 12 noon Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, but the motherfuckers that come in, you know, it drives me crazy. Yeah, man. That's a big subject Bring up punctuality, man. That's that's what you know, it's like a thing of the past And in LA it don't work no more. Oh man, and LA it don't work and they quote on for you
Starting point is 00:51:14 Bro, I was talking to a friend of mine. He's doing a big time show Next week and the fucking lady pulled up That's like That's like chris wideman like in a week or so. What is it chris wideman fight june 2nd? Let me check June 4th june 2nd something like that Chris wideman and luke rockhold, right? Yeah, I got canceled.

This might be a great fight or rock holds just that fucking good I think rock holds just freaking monster. But remember you got jacaray coming out of mex. Yeah. Yeah. Amen. I love jacaray, man According to the dana white, they said it was gonna be jacaray, but he just had a meniscus surgery No way. So he he introduced. Yeah, but dana white fought last week. Yeah.

Starting point is 00:53:33 He just must have had like one of those brain farts or something man because I was just a poorly timed kick I think he was just maybe a little bit tired and just like, uh, I don't know But once that kick he did that kick that was the end right there. So that was just like a really big mistake right there I don't like I don't I don't know about you. You know, I got maybe into six three fights. I got beat up four I got like a two and four record But none of them on the street, but none of them were because I gave my back Uh-huh. I don't know about on the street or may in anything. I don't like that spinning back hand
Starting point is 00:54:07 I do not like the spinning back kick on the street Yeah, the fucking street or whatever because I've seen bro one time I saw a dude in west new york pick up a motherfucker and dump him on the side That dude still squeezing the ball fucking yelling fucking bingo I think he can finally pronounce the g now and that was an 82.

I think he's like like when you look at him, he's he's ripped and strong Yeah, he choked me one time he's young and strong And but he never trained he never trained jiu-jitsu before he came to the gym. He was like a jiu-jitsu assassin He just came in Killing motherfuckers

I think he's just like He's just a natural man. I think he's probably seen it before and then he's just naturally athletic and just some people just got that like That crazy strength, man, you know, like people rolling like every time every person has rolled with I haven't rolled with them yet But there's just like, oh my god, that guy's trying but you saw how Tarzan handle him.

Anyway, uh He had just rolled with gill and gill actually popped his rib because he just like had him in guard and like squeezed his ribs real hard
Starting point is 00:56:23 Anyway, I put I put gill with Tarzan and Eric's been with me for about three years or so like that, you know And then Eric just controlled him You know calmed him down, you know, because that guy's a he's a scrappy cat man. He's like all over the right He's like a little mongoose or something like that He's like fast and quick and like and then Eric just like slowed him down because Eric's just fucking a little He's a strong motherfucker dude. He's a strong guy My shoulders I heard yeah, I thought you tapped yourself out when you did that one. No, he did. That's why he tapped you
Starting point is 00:56:51 No, I had I tapped myself because he put my shoulder in the fucking limbo Like I don't have that type of yoga. Oh, you know what? Yeah, he gets that position. We're yeah, he gets that position So that's what killed me. So anyway, Eric controlled them swept them and tapped them and I was like, yeah Cool, man. I wanted to see if uh, Eric could solve that puzzle man, you know what I mean? Because I I was watching him. I was like, oh, he's just kind of like quick and and explosive, you know, like that So like people like that you got to like slow him down, you know I mean Just kind of slow their game down a little bit and then then wait for them to make a mistake
Starting point is 00:57:20 And they'll do something stupid and then you can sweep them or submit or whatever. But yeah, man Tarzan Tarzan handled it I know you hear this constantly and people hear this constantly But it's a big disappointment in my life. I wish I would have Started to get to it 40. Oh man.

That's my brother over there. He knows I don't do dick I hope not yesterday. Yesterday you had four people watching you. I was one of those people watching the class Oh, okay. Okay. And I was watching and I was watching how you were mixing the kettlebells with the body weight
Starting point is 00:59:36 So it exercises. Yeah, well, I start off with body weight. I start off with body weight I do body weight first just you know Because I think you should master your body first. It's your body man. You should be master of your body, you know It's like so I I We do that that way, you know, you're Thoroughly warm before you even touch the kettlebell. We get the shape of this dude five stars in look at the shape You should have seen how he was looking at you. He was looking at you and free it every time you said body weight I hate the movement exercise
Starting point is 01:00:08 Do you they kill me? Do I I guarantee you won't hate my stuff. No, well, I've never I've never had anybody leave my closet Go like I don't hate it because of the work It's just it's the stuff where like you look to like a push-up up and down the floor and oh you're talking about like like Crawling and all that stuff like yeah, yeah, okay like animal style movements. Yeah Yeah, yeah Those are tough man if you've never done a man because you know like all that crawling around like the bear crawls and The different animal stuff. That's like all core. It's all like right here, man
Starting point is 01:00:36 So like it kills women because women I think are naturally a little bit weaker in the stomach area, you know So it kills women. Well, especially if you give birth It's tough to recover those. I think maybe they after the pregnancy and stuff. Yeah, sure. Sure, man That's what my wife was bitching about that those It took her a long time That's why my wife my wife ordered a 25 pound kettlebell And she still does those turkish fucking get up. My wife is hooked on those turkish get-ups dog It's a good exercise. It's a good exercise. I say she complimented with yoga. Yeah, she goes to yoga one day the other day she took
Starting point is 01:01:09 Excuse me. It's a good exercise burp the fucking salad tremendous It was tough because when we we did a class together for a while I used to try to avoid those because it was always at the end and he didn't really have to do them But now where I go, we have to do them every day. What's that like a turkish get-up every day. Yeah Three days a week three days a week. He goes he goes mondays wednesdays and fridays But the workouts are shorter Yeah, it was like 30 minutes. Yeah, the workouts are shorter and then he does like 15 minutes of stuff And you're running out of there. There's a lot of strength guys that go in there. Yeah, a lot of people go to the competition
Starting point is 01:01:43 I don't do I don't do like I don't have that again Like I don't have that traditional mindset of turkish get-ups like they do like I like my last download was just all on A whole one month program on turkish get-ups alone Your whole thing I have like my last download was a one month turkish get-up program that leads to what I call the brazilian get-up Which becomes like the technical lift with the kettlebell You know, so like I guarantee you like half the traditional people couldn't do one of my like like I'll do a one hour workout on the turkish get-up alone I teach it I teach it body weight and then I teach it with the kettlebell and I break each thing down and you drill each
Starting point is 01:02:18 Movement that makes up a turkish get-up by itself Until you master the movements because it's a weird movement to master when when you teach somebody the technical lift and jiu jitsu It's just like it's a nightmare man. It really is man And I've been teaching the turkish the technical lift so much Since I've been in because it's in the fundamentals program at legacy, you know, I've always taught it, but like I mean we got 10,000 students at legacy We got a ton of students so I teach it so much and I see it's just a coordination That is really difficult people to get man and the technical lift is just like the turkish get-up
Starting point is 01:02:48 So like in order to teach those movements You have if you break it down into a few different steps And have them master each little step then it becomes easier whenever you teach it all together You know what I mean? Does that make sense right? Well about six weeks ago What happened was I went to one of your went to the lunchtime classes And as a warm-up you made us do a turkish get-up. Oh, yeah. Yeah, I'm gonna tell you something my body went into shop I started sweating just a body weight turkish get-up just a body weight It's just you know, you just keep doing them slow, but you made us rotate the leg the whole thing
Starting point is 01:03:19 Yeah, yeah, so now when I go on the road, that's how I open my workout. Yeah, man. That's a good word You do five on each side. Let me tell you something you're fucking trans or you could time yourself And I go with the the elliptical then I go back That's how I close the work and I close it on my back doing the the fucking the hip things escapes You know, why not? What the fuck that's your biggest problem. It's your core Is that sit-up move that you've been doing with the kettlebell? Uh, one of Joey's moves? I had it when I went to Higgins one of Higgins guys did it He saw me one day struggling with that move to get the Komoro from the closed guard
Starting point is 01:03:53 And he goes you should do these but he didn't add anything else. He just had like an eight pound ball So my neighbor had an eight pound ball. He goes you want him to throw it away So I've been doing it with an eight pound ball. So one day I took my wife's kettlebell and I said, let me see if I could do them with 25 pounds. I was in fucking shock I was doing them with 25 pounds And that day I just did sets of like 15 like five sets of 15 and what is it? Is it sit up? It's a set up So you're on your back. I'm on my back. Let the kettlebell go behind me And then put it up over here sit up and then go. Oh, okay
Starting point is 01:04:25 Yeah, boom and do do the squat the hip It's like six movements. I call it like but you're on your back when you I'm on my back the whole time It's a pull over to a press to a press To a press with a sit up with a little fucking hip escape not a hip escape, but a A hip bump. So I do the whole thing. Oh, you mean like a bridge a bridge.
