What is the number one way to improve body composition? Running! What is the number one way to naturally increase hormones and remain young? Running! What is the greatest way to prepare yourself for the intensities of combat? Running!

When you run (Sprint) you burn more calories per second than you do in any other possible human activity! There is nothing as intense as running (sprinting) when it comes to calories per second. By acclimating our body to running (sprinting) we can now easily reach new heights of intensities in our chosen sport. Simply practicing your sport of choice will never allow you to achieve your highest potential in that sport! This is a well known secret of elite trainers: by sprinting regularly you will quickly improve your tolerance to increased levels intensity, your grappling/MMA sessions will seem tame in comparison. Still, it is crucial however that your running routine not take away from precious mat time. This is why Coach Zahabi has included a PDF Guide with sample workouts and details on exactly how to incorporate a running program for combat athletes.

Coach will also teach you the best method for increasing the size of your calfs! Forget expensive calf raise machines, forget doing countless reps hoping to see your calfs grow. Coach Zahabi will teach the easiest way to safely use leverage against your calf and force them to grow.

This instructional runs for over 1hr with zero dead time or fluff and includes a PDF Companion Guide! You get the equivalent of what you would learn in a 3-hour seminar. Coach loves to get straight to the point. You will waste zero minutes watching this video. Every single minute in this video is educational.

  2. Coach, i'm a man in my 20s. I want to transition to be a woman and smash Tracey Cortez and Rose live on ppv. Can u train me if i come to Montreal?

  3. Khamzat is fucking popular enough for the title trust me, when ladies who never watch ufc asks when is he fighting next etc

  4. Hey coach, thanks for the analysis. Imo there’s no chance volk can outgrapple Illia and his lack of KO power make me think ilia has the advantage everywhere except conditioning. I think Ilia will become champ.

  5. Coach has good foundational knowledge on a fairly wide range of subjects outside combat sports/martial arts but suggesting someone slap a child with a studied, verified, legitimate mental illness to "cure" them is quite ignorant.

  6. Hey Coach! Your "student" asked about Dutch kickboxing, boxing and Muay Thai1:33:56 You forgot to speak about Dutch kickboxing Coach, one of the most important kickboxing styles in the West – what do you think?

  7. Michel Chandler don't a alot kick but he did KOed Tony he is also shorter fighter than tony in height so VOLK SHOULD WORRY ABOUT HEAD KICK 🧐
