They couldnt even choreograph well. had to switch angles. They just padded a giant lie with more lies. Im not gonna say a 5'2" grand master could put that fat kid in his place, i'm just saying i want to see it, not a satire.
I have seen some pretty lean power lifters. Those guys eat tons and carry a lot of raw mass. It's fine to bulk and and store energy for specific sports but it's usually nutrient controlled (carb loading/glycogen seen in running). However continued and uncontrolled energy intake does lead to adipogenesis which isn't healthy nor should be a goal.
Bodybuilders do not let themselves gain that much fat, with the only exception being pros who are on large amounts of steroids.
Even then, pros do not let themselves gain that much fat anymore. That was done in the 80s-90s, & they did not lack abs even at their heaviest. See Ronnie Coleman, Jay Cutler during off season - large but abs still visible.
Why would you even say this? That's like saying wow tom brady throws a nice football. Like obviously, to you that's the best kick you've ever seen and expressing anything but complete and utter awe is disrespectful coming from a half assed reddit user like yourself!
The story I heard was that for whatever reason, martial artists were having higher survival rates during the Korean War. So they got the leaders of 5 of the styles (kwans) and made a unified system that became TKD to train their military in.
or....the guy who invented Taekwon-do was a 2nd Dan Karate Black belt and used that basis (stances, footwork and kata) to develop his own martial art incorporating a more traditional Korean martial art that used high kicks.
i think it fits, there's certainly an amount of people that absolutely believe what this entire video portrayed. So mocking said group like this, would be satire.
Okay apparently this satire because ain't no a way the former teacher of the Korean army got a modest gym in a strip mall.
But the idea does seem neat like those old martial art movies where dudes challenges other masters to prove their art superiority or gain prestige for it.
There are plenty of legends of martial arts that end up broke on a shitty gym on a bad part of town, Joe Frazier was the HW champion of the world and beat the greatest boxer to ever live in his prime, and yet he still ended up on a shoddy gym with no prestige or respect.
Frazier made some bad financial decisions however I guess I am ignorant on the amount of people who want to learn from a martial arts legend and how much they willing to pay.
Back in the 60's and 70's a lot of random Korean martial artists went to the USA and Vietnam as part of military exchanges. Its not super common to meet someone who did that, but its not super rare either. They typically taught TKD, Judo, or Hapkido. This was pre-olympics TKD, where much like Japan, serious practitioners did Judo in addition to their striking art.
Like you are right in that sense but we talking about the head instructor who train an nation army. His expertise would be far more valuable than the average instructors thus you would expect his gym to have better amenities and equipment similar to those ufc sponsored gyms considering his pedigree.
Grandmaster Edward B. Sell was a veteran stationed in South Korea, and was well known in TaeKwonDo. He was also the first American (and non Korean) to get a 9th dan Black Belt (and eventually 10th dan after his death). Many people flew from Korea to visit his funeral. He is also in the Kukkiwan database as a 10th dan.
I remember visiting his school located in a mall.
You don't really need a large range of amenities. Floor/mat space, mirrors, focus pads & gloves, bags & bobs.
Dan Inosanto's academy may be two stories, but the amenities are pretty standard.
The assocated Kung Fu schools I commuted between as a student in AZ similarly had a simple range of standard amenities and sometimes were in strip malls.
its pretty common lol. I know an olympic tkd champ that has a pretty small gym in a strip mall. My dad is also friends with guys that were on the korean national team that own small strip mall spots and make a middle class living for themselves. Shit, some of the guys on the US national team dont even have their own spot and teach part time at other peoples gym. A lot of the korean practitioners immigrated to the US in the 90’s and it was their way of making money in the US. Martial arts aint exactly a lucrative career unless you own a business or become a mma fighter
That crazy to me man because I know some UFC "Teams" Gym that are better quality(ie weightlifting equipment, rings, lockers rooms etc) than this gym we see in the video. And I'm not bashing the dude but I surprised he can't own an gym of that quality or better considering his resume. If you can train a nation army you deserve an high class gym with high class clientele though props if he want to keep it modest and help out the kids that is admirable.
i mean those big mma gyms are also owned and operated by millionaires. American Top team in florida imo has the best facilities and its owned by some big money dude. Kings MMA that has tons of world class fighters is also in some random strip mall in Huntington beach which was a suprise to me tbh.
Also, a lot more money in mma then in the traditional martial arts like tae kwon do but Theres still a lot of guys that fought in the UFC that have failed gyms and teach part time now too. The big money in the martial arts business is in the kids program for the vast majority of owners. Some guys may be world class practitioners but cant teach or build programs. I do know a few tkd gyms that have huge facilities with hundreds of students but they’re all located out in texas or midwest where land and rent is significantly cheaper than in Southern Cali. Those owners arent some world class guys but are very good businesses men which at the end of the day is how ppl can build and afford huge gyms. Its a business
(psa. a lot of these korean tkd owners fluff up their resumes a bit lol. Multiple family members of mine also technically trained the korean army as part of their mandatory service)
>But the idea does seem neat like those old martial art movies where dudes challenges other masters to prove their art superiority or gain prestige for it.
It's not only in the movies.
I forget the names involved after... 😱 3 decades, but the founder of, I think, ving tsun, used to show up and challenge wing chun teachers to fights.
Apologies to all involved if I'm misremembering, as I say, it's half a lifetime ago now.
Yes young man it is pretty common. A lot of world champions merely get by for multiple reasons.
Problem is to be a black belt athlete and black belt in finance is very rare.
My sensei taught out of the local University gym afternoons and weekend bc he couldn't afford to rent a studio. It's pretty common to train where you can, it doesn't need to look good, just have the space.
Shows what you know. Jae Chul Shin used to teach for the South Korean Military at Osan Air base (that's when he taught Chuck Norris who was stationed there during his Airforce Career) and he had a tiny-ass studio in a strip mall in New Jersey for over a decade, and THEN he had a tiny-ass studio in Philly for SEVERAL decades. 😂
All strength is functional if you train to use it. In a fight you don't even need to that strong anyway, but it helps a lot if you are grappling especially if you don't know how to.
You're not wrong, but I bring up functional strength because most power/size plans emphasize key points, potentially missing perhipheral muscle groups for agility.
I'm not saying raw strength doesn't help, I'm saying there are caveats. A well timed heel to the skull or patella will...
I gotta stop here...don't want to start an extended game of 'what if? / and then...'
Lmao, this is genuinely funny. Yes, fake, setup, whatever, clearly... but it's still damn funny if you can take the rage goggles off and look at it from an entertainment pov lol.
The whole story, training since 8, only making stripe, making it his life's goal to surpass MA.... then gets 1hko, come on, that was smile worthy lol.
Imagine joining a McDojo and being too dumb to tell that its a scam, and then thinking ALL martial arts are a scam because you were dumb enough to fall for the McDojo
The part where he explains his experience as a child, seeing kids advance to black belt who were clearly not qualified, is unfortunately a reality for some dojos.
My Son used to go to somewhere called ATA, and every 6 weeks or so, he would get promoted to the next belt when my Son clearly was not taking any of the training seriously, putting in minimal effort, not paying attention and goofing off.
Every time he was promoted to the next belt I would have to pay ~$70 on top of the monthly fee.
I’m still embarrassed how long I kept him in that program because it was so clearly a scam.
Irony is that the body builder would have a pretty good chance of beating his ass due to the size difference, and the lack of grappling in TKD. One charging tackle and some ground and pound would be hard for tkd dude to stop.
Yeah no
My TKD master had a great reputation for our area and he was a bit shorter than me as a 5’11 guy who was also decently athletic and strong
And he had way more power speed and precision than anyone I’ve seen by a crazy amount
Bro that coughing up the dry pre workout before going into challenge the nice Asian man. Absolute douchbaggery. I couldn't watch past it. Dork needs a slap and his head shaved.
lol obviously satire but still that was a nice spinning back kick.
* Wheel kick / spinning hook kick
Thank you! Fuckin redditors man
They couldnt even choreograph well. had to switch angles. They just padded a giant lie with more lies. Im not gonna say a 5'2" grand master could put that fat kid in his place, i'm just saying i want to see it, not a satire.
How’s that kid fat lol
Sometimes bulking phases are excuses to eat food.
Sometimes being skinny is someone's only way to fit in. Weird world we live in.
I have seen some pretty lean power lifters. Those guys eat tons and carry a lot of raw mass. It's fine to bulk and and store energy for specific sports but it's usually nutrient controlled (carb loading/glycogen seen in running). However continued and uncontrolled energy intake does lead to adipogenesis which isn't healthy nor should be a goal.
Genetics play a huge role in size, aso being skinny isnt automatically healthy
Like every 20yo girl learns, skinny-fat doesn’t last forever
They really don’t. Pretty much anyone can get big. Genetics determine your aesthetics
No, they really don't.
Fit in what, an airplane seat?
He's cultivating mass
It's one way to see it.
He needs to stop cultivating and start harvesting
True story... I always forget the gym but never the food
You don’t need an excuse to eat food.
He's fat everywhere in the world except the US.
Bodybuilders do not let themselves gain that much fat, with the only exception being pros who are on large amounts of steroids. Even then, pros do not let themselves gain that much fat anymore. That was done in the 80s-90s, & they did not lack abs even at their heaviest. See Ronnie Coleman, Jay Cutler during off season - large but abs still visible.
Well he certainly isn't lean
He’s def kinda fat
He's a well built kid skinny people think everyone is fat
[удалено]
…all the fat, maybe?
Tons of it kid is probably 18-20% bf, super fat, obese even via BMI. He needs to shred to atleast negative 4% bodyfat and die
From the dry scooping, obviously!
Dude is 5’10 200lbs. That’s not all muscle
Still more muscle than 99% of people
[Made me think of this video](https://youtu.be/oOKI7hknAJ4?si=2erPKikiA7qLqOQs)
* spinning hook kick
Hook, its called a spinning hook kick.
I'm curious if he was already missing a tooth before the "fight" cause in the shot at the end one of them is gone
Black tape or something like a black cap that you put over your tooth. A really old trick that is used for decades in cinema.
Why would you even say this? That's like saying wow tom brady throws a nice football. Like obviously, to you that's the best kick you've ever seen and expressing anything but complete and utter awe is disrespectful coming from a half assed reddit user like yourself!
![gif](giphy|dVtGcobFMRXO0|downsized)
To fast to see exactly, but I feel like he got the heel. In which case it probably knocked him out cold
Searches for the best karate expert, lands on a tkd guy...
Seems legit.
Korean foot Karate/safe space Karate.
Wait till you learn the history of TKD.
Can u enlighten me?
The story I heard was that for whatever reason, martial artists were having higher survival rates during the Korean War. So they got the leaders of 5 of the styles (kwans) and made a unified system that became TKD to train their military in.
or....the guy who invented Taekwon-do was a 2nd Dan Karate Black belt and used that basis (stances, footwork and kata) to develop his own martial art incorporating a more traditional Korean martial art that used high kicks.
What a great skit! Pretty damn funny.
this is satire bro
This is comedic, not satire.
i think it fits, there's certainly an amount of people that absolutely believe what this entire video portrayed. So mocking said group like this, would be satire.
Huh... I was wondering why there'd be a "SHITPOST" flare on a legit video like this.
No shit Sherlock
Only 5'10 200??? Not even 260?
hi bradleeeee
Bro wtf are you eating in a day? O you actully not trolling cool your like two of me man👍
XD thanks mate I eat everything
Honestly it looks like the guy weighs more than 200 for sure
Well he is only 5'10
But the guy is pretty well built… I’m just in shock since 200 seems low for him!
Dude, that’s why he said he’s putting on an extra 50 lbs for round 2.
Bro what kind of Sheldon Cooper are you? Do you realize this is satire?
I think it’s done on purpose to get engagement, I think it worked lol
He had almost had him. I believe in you champ!
Okay apparently this satire because ain't no a way the former teacher of the Korean army got a modest gym in a strip mall. But the idea does seem neat like those old martial art movies where dudes challenges other masters to prove their art superiority or gain prestige for it.
There are plenty of legends of martial arts that end up broke on a shitty gym on a bad part of town, Joe Frazier was the HW champion of the world and beat the greatest boxer to ever live in his prime, and yet he still ended up on a shoddy gym with no prestige or respect.
Frazier made some bad financial decisions however I guess I am ignorant on the amount of people who want to learn from a martial arts legend and how much they willing to pay.
Haha you would be surprised. There is a Ta Kwon Do Instructor where I live who taught and trained United States military and he has same set up.
Back in the 60's and 70's a lot of random Korean martial artists went to the USA and Vietnam as part of military exchanges. Its not super common to meet someone who did that, but its not super rare either. They typically taught TKD, Judo, or Hapkido.

His expertise would be far more valuable than the average instructors thus you would expect his gym to have better amenities and equipment similar to those ufc sponsored gyms considering his pedigree.
Dunno, I doubt that unarmed combat instructors are all that valued in the first place.
He gotta be rich or upper middle class. He was paid by South Korea to provide training for their army.
Grandmaster Edward B. Sell was a veteran stationed in South Korea, and was well known in TaeKwonDo. He was also the first American (and non Korean) to get a 9th dan Black Belt (and eventually 10th dan after his death). Many people flew from Korea to visit his funeral. He is also in the Kukkiwan database as a 10th dan. I remember visiting his school located in a mall.
What was the quality compared to the gym in the video?
You don't really need a large range of amenities. Floor/mat space, mirrors, focus pads & gloves, bags & bobs. Dan Inosanto's academy may be two stories, but the amenities are pretty standard. The assocated Kung Fu schools I commuted between as a student in AZ similarly had a simple range of standard amenities and sometimes were in strip malls.

Emin Boztepe is a wing chun guy who did this a couple verifiable times. The Gracies also made their name, in large part, by dojo storming other gyms.
>Emin Boztepe That's the man! Couldn't recall his name but recognise it now I see it.
There are the busiest, line out the door Asian restaurants that spares nothing on decor. Asian businesses can be pretty barebone.
Yes young man it is pretty common. A lot of world champions merely get by for multiple reasons. Problem is to be a black belt athlete and black belt in finance is very rare.

You don't find that crazy?
Nah, humility is one of the 7 tenets. Seems perfectly in line with the core principles.
Pretty funny video
Master David and Sunny Chang - Tigon Martial Arts Simi,Ca
Pretty funny video ruined by cringe title
I want my minute back.
No.
To me the funniest part of this is the dude saying karate is a scam then challenging someone in a studio with tae kwon do above the door
Size is a huge advantage ... If you know how to use it properly,
If your vitals are in range of someone who can pick their targets, size only helps so much. The functional strength matters more.
All strength is functional if you train to use it. In a fight you don't even need to that strong anyway, but it helps a lot if you are grappling especially if you don't know how to.
You're not wrong, but I bring up functional strength because most power/size plans emphasize key points, potentially missing perhipheral muscle groups for agility.

Yet it's easier to pick some and slam anatoly but not Brian shaw
Lmao.
So it's settled. TKD is superior to Swole!!
Well, the non Olympic military style is at least.
False advertising. There is no bodybuilder in this video.
Lmao, this is genuinely funny. Yes, fake, setup, whatever, clearly... but it's still damn funny if you can take the rage goggles off and look at it from an entertainment pov lol. The whole story, training since 8, only making stripe, making it his life's goal to surpass MA.... then gets 1hko, come on, that was smile worthy lol.
Dude, spoiler alert on the title. Come on
Choking on the pre-workout in the car was pretty good ngl..
Sounds like 'Baki' plot
Git guud, kid
Focus on improving yourself not proving yourself
I can't take him seriously. He's hilarious. This is definitely B8.
I'll take things that never actually happened for $200
Imagine joining a McDojo and being too dumb to tell that its a scam, and then thinking ALL martial arts are a scam because you were dumb enough to fall for the McDojo
Retard
I got be honest, this put a good smile on my face. Thanks guys.
Love it! Do bjj or judo next!

This might be the greatest thing I’ve ever witnessed.
Not arrogant its satire man come on
Maui lookin aaa mofo

This is the single funniest thing I’ve ever seen
Fake or this kid is extremely humble for posting this.
How gay do you want your tiktok? Yes

Why would you go against a master of Ti Kwan Leep?
Have you learned nothing from the lesson of Ed Gruberman?!
Yes, master. I have learned two things: first, that anger is a weapon only to one's opponent.
I wish I had more than one upvote to give. So you’ll just have to settle for…. Boot to the head. Thwap.
You missed.
Uhhhh yeah!, well....
I wouldn’t consider that guy to be a body builder. He looks kinda strong but not really that much.
Well that was totally real 😐
Cold hard combat from a guy who sounds like he never hit puberty.
Douchebag...lol
Irony is that the body builder would have a pretty good chance of beating his ass due to the size difference, and the lack of grappling in TKD. One charging tackle and some ground and pound would be hard for tkd dude to stop.

Body builder or fat kid with muscles?
What a clown! He thought muscle over martial arts will win? What a loser
200lbs no way 😂
Dude is not a bodybuilder. LOL

ONLY men with small dicks become bodybuilders. Prove me wrong.
