is that one of the squad members working out

i cant believe you guys. that's randy couture. show some fucking respect.
actually, that seems like a pretty good workout. maybe not for getting huge, but for staying in shape or if you are pressed for time.
the guy is right. no one does want to be a 500 lb. bodybuilder.

500 pound bb'er ;D hahahah randy is bad assed but the squat/ good morning?
-
Without gear, he'd be 5' 8" like me...haha
-
cant argue with his results though, he looks great for a guy in his 40's and hed beat the shit out of this board
-
most MMA fighters don't train like bodybuilders anyway. many do circuit training because of its advantages towards endurance and cardiovascular fitness.
-
only a few have / had very muscular physiques, most notably Ken Shamrock, Mike Kyle, Phil Baroni, Frank Trigg and Mark Kerr

This is my opinion, when it comes to this video and his training.Randy Couture is full of sh*t, when it comes to working out. Alot of those movements he did he is jerking the weight. I would say he's a professional fighter, but not a professional weightlifter. He needs to work on that, there's your respect. People look up to this guy and he doesn’t know how to use proper form. It pisses me off, when kids look up to people like this for advise. They the same sh*t he does and screws them self up. Don't believe me then look at it again. He's freaking bouncing the weight when he's doing lunges, not even going all the way down. The moral of this story is train properly, don’t train dumb.

proper form is overrated

Yeah maybe for people on steroids. Dude, I guess you never suffered from muscle pulls and hurt joints. You don't feel sh8t compared to the guy that doesn’t do steroids or whatever the hells out there. Bluto you believe in his way or training. Good luck, because you'll need it. In a couple of months you'll be crying from your bed. You cant get out without feeling a muscle spasms rushing through out your body. Yeah I don’t know what I'm talking about alright. Been there done that you dumba**.

you think he's going to hurt himself because he doesnt go lower on lunges, with that small weight on his shoulders?

some inspiring lifting there.

You talked about proper form is overrated. Proper form is crucial, when it comes to preventing injuries. You need to explain yourself better besides putting a few words down. He's bouncing the weight, when he was showing his example of his workout routine. That's not healthy for your joints, he's going to pull something with in time. The point is, if your going to teach something, there needs to be no flows. Especially, when he has a following of people like he has. It's not the amount of weight, it's following this workout day in and day out. One day somebody’s going to mess himself up due to the fact. That this guys form sucks. I'm talking about some kid that likes this guy and never worked out in his life. This kid see's this tape and inspires him to follow this guys steps. The kids going to follow what this guy teaches and f*ck himself up at an early age.

i dont think proper form is crucial, depens on the exercise, the weight and the individual.
there's plenty of exercises, like curls, where proper forms is not necessary, some even say they would get better results not doing it textbook

Ok, you believe in your way of training. Lets hear it from everybody else. Preferably fitness trainers and people that's been working out more then five years. I want to hear different opinions.
-
i believe in proper form, but i also believe in doing whats comfortable (not to be confused with pussiness). if you've found something to work over a long period of time then i say continue doing it. i try to find my own groove for a lot of movements, while keeping "strict form" as a reference but not a rule. besides, Randy's real workout probably happens on the mat, and not in the gym.

Thats the dumbest thing I have ever read! You must weight a buck 50! Get in the comfort zone?? LMAO that contradicts the purpose you goon!
-
the funny thing is he would bury your heros like jay or ronnie in a fight,imagine how funny that would look?a huge ass 300lb bodybuilder gettin choked out by some 200lb slim guy,lol

I seen him fight and.. he is nothing special. Just the typical street brawler with no skills.

He was an olympic alternate for wrestling. And he's not 6'8, he's 6'1.

this may be the dumbest post i've ever read here. form? who really gives a shit. have you ever seen nasser, dillet, coleman, jackson, cutler, etc. train? their form is pretty sloppy. besides, randy's form was fine.
why dont you make a video of what proper form looks like and your credentials on fighting and competitive bodybuilding?
-
That sport is almost as gay as bodybuilding.
-
There’s some dumbass*s up in here, I swear.

the only multi weight class champ in UFC history. he won the light heavy and heavy weight titles twice.

so that means bruce lee weight more than him?
-
no, bruce lee weighed 130. couture fought at 220 in the HW class, and the weight limit for the Light HW is 205.
-
alexxx,
i dont know what the point of your initial post was. couture is 6'1, not 6'8. were you trying to make fun of his form (which is fine) or his physque.
you obviously dont know anything about professional fighting, but randy couture is one of the, if not the, most respected fighter of all time. He was an olympia, world champ, and UFC champ. his reputation is that he is very respectful and a class act.
why the hate? randy doesnt deserve it.

My bad it was about making fun about his crappy workouts but I though he was the dude from the last UFC that fought Arlovski.. is he?
-
nope, that was tim silvia.
who has failed a few drug tests for having winstrol in his system.
here's some pics of tim.
http://www.sherdog.com/news/Picture_gallery.asp?f_id=1061@@Tim+Sylvia
but, tim is a 2X HW champ in the UFC and a good striker. hits hard with a long reach.

Its easier with a alonger reach. But this guy really sucked shit at fighting.
-
Wow confusing Couture with Sylvia.. How dumb can you be?
-
Bruce Lee would smoke him.
-
acutally he really aint all that bad, at least for UFC. he's beaten some big names in convincing fashion.
i've aslo heard he's a good guy.
-
look alexx cant tell couture from lance armstrong and mma from bobsleigh this is useless
-
Bruce Lee would kill them all at the same time!

Sylvia's 22-2. His style sucks to look at but obviously it's effective.

I'm pretty sure they make these jokes in the same way that they do with their racist posts. Out of fear, and they probably don't mean it. It's fun to offend people.
They don't lie about being heavier or bigger than they are in MMA because it's the opposite of bodybuilding. Being bigger means you might be trying to make up for lack of skill. Like Joe Riggs cutting weight from 203lbs down to 170.

-

-
I thought randy was a joke after watching that workout; at least i know how he gets those almost "bird like" legs now.... 95lbs sqat anyone? But seriously i found this other video of him working out its alot better than the first. Looks like hes going all out:

I agree...and you're one of them. He is training for explosiveness/endurance and funtional strength not size ::)

A lot of these guys cant possibly fathom the idea that someone would lift weights for a reason other than obtaining size. Brutal concept huh ??? Total mind blow, woah!

He was doing it wrong either way! There is only one way to lift weights and its the right way. Proper form. He wouldn't know until he gets stuck under those 50pound babell lunges and sarcasm comes laughing his ass off from the underside of the giant skinny man.
-
I seen him fight and.. he is nothing special. Just the typical street brawler with no skills.
Actually he was an NCAA champion wrestler and an olympic alternate.
Randy's training made him a multiple UFC Champion and a millionair, So I would say he is doing somthing right.

Hopefully this is just a failed attempt at humor. Just in case though, there is more than just one way to lift weights. Take a look at Dorian vs. Ronnie. Dorian always used slow reps with perfect form, full range of motion, squeezing at the top/stretching at the bottom and incorporated a lot of super sets/drop sets. Ronnie, on the other hand, uses fast reps, often not going full range and relatively loose form. Both built gobs of muscle. Interestingly, Dorian suffered a lot more injuries.
When training for functional strength, traditional form goes out the window. The goal here is to develop muscle strength from every angle.
Hope that heps...

Bruce Lee would kill them all at the same time!
Bruce Lee fought other 130 lbs Japanese guys who all fought the same stand up BS styles that were proven ineffective in the first few UFC's. Bruce Lee would get killed by even the worst fighters in the UFC today.

Crappy form is subjective. If you get the results you want then your form is fine.
When your slamming or throwing opponents do you think he uses slow/perfect form?
-

Its true. There were plenty of guys who were bigger/stronger/faster than MR Lee who fought the same style he did and got their asses handed to them in the first UFC's. Any Blue belt in BJJ or anyone with university wrestling would own Mr Lee.

Wow, Bruce sparred with a basketball player, and we all know how tough they are.
Bruce Lee was an Actor, he never even had a santioned fight. Face it the traditional styles dont work in real combat, or else we would see them in UFC or in Pride where they could make millions.
I bet Jet Lee could probably beat Fedor too eh ::)

That funny, everyone who comments on him comes from a same style that was proven useless in real combat in the first UFC tournies.
What are you basing your opinion on? The Movies Bruce was in? That has to be it because he never had a real sanctioned fight.
Go to Sherdog.com and discuss Bruce. Why dont you see the opinions of people who have actually fought MMA.
Face it Bruce was an actor and nothing more. THe styles he practiced have been proven useless time and time again.
Skill>Size, but a big skilled man beats a little skilled man.

Bull! I will check you man on top of man action website when I come back from the gym.
I will say this. It doesn't matter what style somebody fights its how skilled he is at it. ;) more ownings to come when I come back but here are a few people that would own any mma twat: bruce lee, jackie chan, jet lee, tony jaa, ernesto hoost, mike tyson, MUHAMMAD ALI!

Actually Ernestoo Hoost has already been owned by a mediocre MMA fighter named Bob Sapp.
Muhammad Ali couldnt even Own Antonio Inoki.
Jet Lee admitted Randy Couture and Tito Ortiz would "kill him".

Thats the dumbest thing I have ever read! You must weight a buck 50! Get in the comfort zone?? LMAO that contradicts the purpose you goon!
what the fuck are you talking about you retard? i didnt even say "comfort zone" you guido-haired cumbucket. even ronnie talks about finding his groove. shuttup and actually train.
btw, i saw your "design" website. it sucks, and has "student" written all over it.
-
Just proving it doesn't matter how tall or big you are.
it does too. surely Kareem would anihilate someone of Bruces stature, as well as Bruce himself.
Lastly, that is now why the UFC has weight classes. Well, i guess a better example is collegiate wrestling. Do you know what its like wrestling someone you outweigh by 50lbs?
I guess back to the main point; his form doesnt matter as it really doesnt matter when your attempting to pry away from the fence your pinned up against in the ring right?

Pride regularly brings in guys of many different fighting styles and different weight differences. A 6'8 450lb sumo champion getting pwned by an old washed up Royce Gracie. 330lb Butterbean getting subbed by an over-rated featherweight (145lb class) in Genki Sudo. They even brought in a Japanese actor (which is what half of the guys you mentioned specialize in) who got tooled by their worst Lightweight.
This is just intellectual masturbation though. Pretending he actually will be helped out by hearing this so I can listen to myself prattle on.
-
There are so many people on here who think they know it all, when in reality they know fuck all! Right............
Randy Couture destroyed chuck liddell in their first fight, and was subsequently knocked out in the other 2 matches. Nothing to be ashamed of, Liddell is seen as the best 205lb fighter in the world by alot of people. Opinions may differ but until he and the pride guys fight (funny how rampage wont take the rematch) everyone is entitled to their opinion. His knockout power is almost legendary - look at his long list of KO's.
Randy is the first and only man to hold the Heavyweight and Light Heavyweight titles in the UFC, holding each title 2x. He manhandled Vitor Belfort when he was deemed unbeatable, and has also beaten Kurt Angle in an amatreur wrestling match.
Nobody knows how Bruce Lee would have fared, but he was very strong for his size and had scary power in his punches and kicks. I have no doubt that he would have been able to beat the shit out of guys like Jens Pulver, Phil baroni etc had he lived in his prime today. Dont look at him as a Kung Fu actor, look at him as a man who adapted to real life situations and designed and perfected a style which is just about perfect. He was very clever and had an ability that has rarely been seen.

Elvis Presley would destroy any mma fighter with his sheer charisma!

Liddell, is a top fighter, no doubt about that. Standing toe to toe he'll beat most people, heavyweights too, but his ground skills are still lacking compared to fighters like Wand, Fedor and a few others.
There are some great match ups in pride that would draw big dollars i.e Lidell x Randleman, Yoshida, Cro Cop, Wanderlei etc.

Randy is the first and only man to hold the Heavyweight and Light Heavyweight titles in the UFC, holding each title 2x. He manhandled Vitor Belfort when he was deemed unbeatable, and has also beaten Kurt Angle in an amatreur wrestling match.
Nobody knows how Bruce Lee would have fared, but he was very strong for his size and had scary power in his punches and kicks. I have no doubt that he would have been able to beat the shit out of guys like Jens Pulver, Phil baroni etc had he lived in his prime today. Dont look at him as a Kung Fu actor, look at him as a man who adapted to real life situations and designed and perfected a style which is just about perfect. He was very clever and had an ability that has rarely been seen.
Jackson would love rematch, Its the UFC who wont let it happen.
Its not like its necessary because his first fight with Chuck wasnt even close.
How can you comment on Bruce Lee's ability? He never fought a sanctioned fight, so all you can base your conclusions on is his movies.
And to Alexx, 99% of people would prefer to have a body like Randy Couture than any Bodybuilders. 99% of girls would also prefer a guy with a body like Randy Coutures to that of a pro bodybuilder. the other 1% of girls have more male hormones than most men.

Read what martial arts legends say about him!

Freddy Kruger: Bruce Lee taught me how to kill people in their dreams in a matter of 3 days.

I sure wish I had the last 4:16 of my life back. :(

Chucks Corner had to throw in the towel in the second Round, real close ::)

how can u say that bruce lee would beat a real mma fighter? 1 he never fought a real fight 2 he was an actor and 3 he was a chinaman that makes him none good. he was a great actor but that is it,he had some great fighting techniques and they might have worked but we will never know because he never was able to use them.
To say that Randy Couture is an idiot because he dosent use "proper form" is the most retarded thing i have ever heard he does what works for him. Most people do the exact same thing they do what works or they train for what they want to be. Randy wants to have explosive power and stamina so that is why he trains the way he does. The man is a great fighter and one of the most respected people in his industry so i dont understand why all the bashing

You are blinder than Narcissistic Deity ::)
baahahahahahahahahahahah haha

I agree...and you're one of them. He is training for explosiveness/endurance and funtional strength not size ::)
Shut up punk a**.

Liddell, is a top fighter, no doubt about that. Standing toe to toe he'll beat most people, heavyweights too, but his ground skills are still lacking compared to fighters like Wand, Fedor and a few others.
There are some great match ups in pride that would draw big dollars i.e Lidell x Randleman, Yoshida, Cro Cop, Wanderlei etc.
The Crocop or Wan fight would be great, but hes already demolished randleman. Hes so much better now than he was even 2 years ago, i cant see anyone beating him in a stand up fight. His ground defence is incredible, apart from Randy when was the last time you saw him being dominated on the ground? He doesnt need ground skills when you can hardly take him down, his power can decide a fight in the blink of an eye
-
chuck actually is a brown belt now in bjj and he was a div 1 wrestler in college so he does have a pretty good ground game,also chuck is extremely difficult to keep down even if someone takes him down.hes a sprawl and brawl fighter and its workin well for him
-
Just proving it doesn't matter how tall or big you are.
well there goes half your arguements when you claim to be such a bad ass. You're only quality as a fighter, or bouncer is that you are tall, that's what you always fall back on. Like I said before if anyone ever blasts you in the mouth you'd cry your little eyes out. ;D

There are so many people on here who think they know it all, when in reality they know f**k all! Right............
Randy Couture destroyed chuck liddell in their first fight, and was subsequently knocked out in the other 2 matches. Nothing to be ashamed of, Liddell is seen as the best 205lb fighter in the world by alot of people. Opinions may differ but until he and the pride guys fight (funny how rampage wont take the rematch) everyone is entitled to their opinion. His knockout power is almost legendary - look at his long list of KO's.

when did he beat Angle, that's very interesting. I've never heard that before.

This is my opinion, when it comes to this video and his training.Randy Couture is full of sh*t, when it comes to working out. Alot of those movements he did he is jerking the weight. I would say he's a professional fighter, but not a professional weightlifter. He needs to work on that, there's your respect. People look up to this guy and he doesn’t know how to use proper form. It pisses me off, when kids look up to people like this for advise. They the same sh*t he does and screws them self up. Don't believe me then look at it again. He's freaking bouncing the weight when he's doing lunges, not even going all the way down. The moral of this story is train properly, don’t train dumb.
...dude, it's called training for your sport! Sure it's not going to turn you into a bodybuilders physique, but when you train to fight, 'bad form' is what you're doing in the ring. His form isn't so terrible, besides. Most bodybuilders use worse! His advice would be fine for a fighter to follow.
-
A lot of these guys cant possibly fathom the idea that someone would lift weights for a reason other than obtaining size. Brutal concept huh ??? Total mind blow, woah!
That guy in the video was talking about randy's workout "from a purely asthetic viewpoint". but its not as mindblowing as thinking your going to balloon to 500lbs by lifting some big weights. Its takes alot more than heavy lifting to put on that kind mass; it drives me nuts when i see friends of mine circuit training at the gym when they need to be bulking because they dont want that "body builder" look. But if you think looking like you belong on a swim team is asthetic have a blast with your 25's.
whats the name of this site again....

Actually Lidell has not improved much since beating Quinton. He beat a middleweight Jeremy Horn and a 42 year old Randy Couture, big friggin deal. When Couture was at the end of his prime at age 40 he owned Chuck. Also Randleman was robbed against chuck. The Fight was prematurely stopped, Randleman was up literally a second after chuck hit him.

BS. Randleman just would've ate a whole lot more punches if the fight hadn't been stopped. He was out.

That guy should have a hat in front of him so that people passing by, could throw some money into it! Lollllllllll ;D ;D ;D
-
dont make excuses for him beating Randy, talking about his age is nothing but a piss poor way of saying he just wasnt good enough against Chuck. After he beat Chuck, he demolished Tito, beat Vitor and dominated Van Arsdale. He could get back in the ring now and beat just about any LHW in the division, Chuck just dominated him with his striking
As for the Randleman fight, let me tell you that had the fight not been stopped then he could have suffered serious damage.

Bull! I will check you man on top of man action website when I come back from the gym.
I will say this. It doesn't matter what style somebody fights its how skilled he is at it. ;) more ownings to come when I come back but here are a few people that would own any mma twat: bruce lee, jackie chan, jet lee, tony jaa, ernesto hoost, mike tyson, MUHAMMAD ALI!
Tyson and Roy jones where offered 1 million a second they can stay in the ring with Royce Gracie win or lose both refused! I was a Golden Gloves boxer my self and I know for a fact boxers are quite useless on the ground! Which is why I into MMA now.
I did karate found weaknesses(took out my 4th degree Black Belt teacher in a sparing session when i was a white belt in 1 punch). Did judo found weaknesses, went on to boxing competed for a few years learned how to punch really hard but still it had weaknesses, did Tai boxing competed for a couple years learned how to kick and elbow and knee really hard but i was still pretty weak on the ground(was in a street fight and almost got killed until i got back on my feet) So I learned jujitsu then BJ which is the far better of the 2. In short to be a well rounded fighter u need to be very well trained in a minimum of 3 martial arts + train hard for that purpose.
Against a normal jo-blows like the ones shooting off their mouths here, almost any style will do. But against an experienced and or trained fighter u must be versatile.
Also fighters do train as displayed by Randy, the reason for his jerky style and form is for take downs! what he's doing is training his body to move as a unit! He's using really light weights, so he's not going to get hurt anyways. And all ppl are telling me here is they don't have the first clue about real fighting. Bruce is one of my idols but still using the style he used in the 70's would get him killed in the ring today. Unless he adapted to the new way of fighting he'd lose, but Bruce would be adapting u can bet on that. So who really knows it's a waste of time to argue about it. My dad had a saying you don't know what u don't know boy!

Tyson and Roy jones where offered 1 million a sec ond they can stay in the ring with Royce Gracie win or lose both refused! I was a golden gloves boxer my self and I know for a fact boxsers are quite useless on the ground!
Maybe they're just straight.
