@@MotoJitsu what kid of recommendations do you have for petite women getting into riding and be able to handle to bigger bikes? I am 5’-0” at 100 lbs and want to handle the heritage
I was in the Marine Corps for 11 years, a Drill Instructor for 4 years, and a DI School Instructor for a year. As the Physical Fitness Instructor at DI School, I found if you strengthen your core all other areas of your fitness will improve whether that be running or swimming or golf.
Hey Greg, thank you for the pretty good set variation. I'm practicing since couple years the exercises of Mark Lauren and doing Jiu Jitsu over one year. Both changed and helped me to be a better human being and motorbike rider. Appreciate everything you share!
Your unfailing kindness and encouragement brings tears to my eyes. This retired psych RN thinks your degrees are well placed and I am certain whatever it is that you do, that you have the skill to put slivers of people back together and help them find peace.
I am 68 and learned to ride a motorcycle 12 years ago, did the safety course and a few cornering days at the race track. I was riding my bike(a 2003 BMW R1150RS) and realized that if I wanted to go on extended trips (I am thinking of going to visit my brother in Texas from Niagara/Canada), I will have to do something about my fitness and, within a week, here comes you fitness video! Godsent! Half-way through my vacations in July. I have been doing it for 3 months, just one rep and skipped the jui-jit-su dance and adapting my push-ups to my ability,and the change is as dramatic as it is unexpected! Even my wife has to agree that it has changed me. You do the work of angels (in a Matrix type of way). I just promoted to 2 reps yesterday and I feel better than I have in a long time. Even thinking of picking up tennis again. Thanks for your passion and dedication! My whole thinking about riding has changed.
That's great!! I also have a video called Beginner's Guide To Fitness...here's the link to it. That's awesome, keep it up!! Don't give up!! ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-z5YmS1MpklI.html
Before applying for my motorcycle licence I already kept me in shape, especially legs and with stretching exersises. I had to pick up my bike three times already. It helped tremendously. I had no problems picking it up. So yeah, fitness is more important when you ride a bike than driving a car. Obviously. ^^
I'm a 38 yo female in the midst of taking lessons here in Japan, have my peepers on the Honda 400cc super4. LEt me just say with much emphasis, "THAT BIKE IS HEAVY" I am excited to buid my core more for riding. It's been my dream to be a motorcyclist since my teens, but then life happened, had 3 kids, who are now old enough to handle themselves, and now,,,,,,finally am trying to reach that dream. MotoJitsu has helped me in soooooo many ways, given me a lot of tips and advice that noone would normally tell you. Keep up this great channel and skill.
Gonna start this tommorow after my night shift! Thank you for all the amazing content both new and old! Got my first bike mt07 this year but I'm swapping to a supersport when I've got the cash so I wanna get healthier and more fit ❤️
I'm basically rehabilitating myself from having to use a wheelchair most of the time due to a chronic illness and these are all super similar exercises to what I used to do to stay fit before that! Doing lots of stuff like this to get back in condition to ride (under the auspices of my PT team obviously). Good resource.
M truly surprised there are zero comments to this superbly helpful video. Hats Off for such common sense based, easy to understand content @motojitsu…!!!
Thanks for this. I'm almost 42 and I could do all of them 5 reps at a time. Planning to start and progress from now onwards. Love your channel Appreciations from Australia 🙂
This is cool. As I got in to bikes many years ago, I met Scott Russel. He and I talked about fitness and body weight for 20 minutes at a car/bike show in Philly PA. I got his helmet replica afterwards and my first bike, a CBR600 F3. Cool guy. And now you’re talking fitness which takes me back.
Spot ON for riding! Not just for motorcycle riding but in general for any life activities (like you have mentioned FUNCTIONAL is the word) Thanks for sharing :)
I am 64 and have been doing the Total Control Exercises 3 times a week for a few months. It has made real big difference (I often think, just as much as riding practice). I still have a long way to go to where I want to be and will add these 9 exercises where I can to my mix (which also includes 12 Chi Gong exercises I used to do before Kung Fu training many years ago :-). But in saying all that... really appreciate this video. Many thanks! (again)
Gonna go to motorcycle training academy!! This video is helping me with fundamentals prior to start of class, for this video, I thank you for perspective 🙏
just did one round of this routine plus or minus 2 or 3 reps each exercise and wow what a difference. Haha, not funny but feels good, like I feel more alive and awake and refreshed. The blood is moving through my body and stuff. Good stuff man, really needed a bit of exercise just feeling really weak and wondered why. Used to be a gym rat and then just stopped going.
Hi Joel here I'm 60 yrs. old and although somewhat fair shape this is inspiring me to challenge myself and make commitment to do this. Plus will me to continue to ride safe.
Just recently found your channel and I have to say it's inspirational! Your technique on your bike has made me rethink my own techniques and this video shows how simple it is to be healthy and strong for every day life, bu5t just motorcycling. Keep it up dude!!
That's what I call a complete Rider haha. I've been training muay thay to have better results on my bike, and I noticed I'm not getting tired as I used to be. I already was on my correct weight, but sedentary, work and high school take a lot of my time.
Be sure when doing squats to keep your knees inside and try not to let them go over your toes. I learned this while getting physical therapy for a sciatica issues.
Recently I observed that, my motorcycle riding stamina is reduced, feeling lazy, suffering back pain, and feeling weak so, I was searching for these kind of exercises, no gym, no equipment and purely fitness related not gym body. Thanks a lot, much needed video.
Good video but a couple of pointers if it's ok with you. On the pushups, keep your elbows tucked into your sides, don't flare them out and keep your head back more so that you can touch your chest with each rep but don't cheat and stick your chest out. Athlean X and Fitness FAQ give some great tips for brilliant push ups. With the dead lift technique, this one's a bit hard to explain unless you see someone do it but keep your core closer and if you were lifting weight, the bar has to pretty much be touching the legs so when it gets up to knee height, then you drive the hips forward and keep the core tight. Your back would be in bits if you lifted weight like that. 7:56 that's good but if you ever get bored of it, there's a variation called 'Angels of Death' you keep your body in a static hold position while you move your arms like your doing but keep them straight and move them slowly from your behind to infront of your head and back, repeat. It's only a simple move but bloody hell it takes it out of you when you do many =P 11:20 those are really good but again if you ever want more variety to it, taker hands off the floor and keep them by your chest, move the legs in and out a bit more slowly and controlled too, it really burns after a while. Ride safe.
lol you said you good video then asked if you can give a couple of pointers without me replying if it was ok or not...lol you said your pointers regardless. Yes, there are many others ways to workout and make everything harder etc. This is just a quick workout to get the blood flowing that aren't too complicated or hard for the average person.
This is what I was looking for. Im doing longer twisty rides that are kicking my ass wearing me out. And I haven't even started working on body position. Im expecting both will help. "I'm basically riding like an action figure,."
Situps - you said we have to go all the way back till the head touches the ground, relax for a second and repeat. Won't that take the stress (contraction) away from the stomach and therefore be less effective? Isn't it true that it any exercise, the range of motion should exert maximum contraction during the set (building up the extent of contraction with each rep) on the target set of muscles? By relaxing the body after each rep, won't the extent of contraction reduce and thereby decrease the effectiveness?
Exercise its always good even if you drive a car.......I start working out 1991 any kind running, weight lifting, swimming, bycicle everything important it's you need to move.
king of all exercise is the deadlift, the queen is squad,, jack is pushups these three will keep ur heart pumped up and u will gain muscle too.. cause these are the big muscles in ur body, back, leg and chest. if u do these exercises at least once a week u will not get any blockage in ur heart. cause ur heart will run so fast during these exercises do 10counts and 3 or 2 reps.
The nintjitsu abs is impossible for me, how can you practice this? Also with the swimmers I cannot get my ties from the floor. For the sit ups I allways learned to keep back on the ground, cannot cause back problem doing it full?
By getting into better shape and stretching a lot will help you do all of it. If you haven't already, check out MotoJitsu.com for my new app, books, merch, etc.
Hi, I am practicing running these days, can I incorporate this 3 day split in to my routine? Running only in alternate days...does this over train my body?
(sighs) well i can tell you were a marine! At my age and in my condition I just might hurt myself lol but dang, I'm takin' notes and will give it a whack, starting with a "series" of one each! (just to test for potential damage / I mean skill level... well that's how u do things on the bike!)
I really want to get on track with fitness. I reckon if I could dedicate at least 1 hour in the morning for a 10min walk, 30mins of these exercises and then 20 mins of rest/shower I would be doing well. I cant do vigourous exercise for 30mins straight without going faint and breaking a cold sweat. I tried kickboxing and love it but so embarassing being unable to keep up with the rest for a straight hour sweating and feeling ill after only 30mins clinging to my water bottle
Like + comment + subscribe ( you deserve it my friend) thanks so much for the video i really need it a lot cause i spent the past 3 days riding a lot on my duke 200 ktm as a way to pass the 1k milage but it really tires my knees and back. If you have any recommendations about exercises for knees or stretching before and after driving i would be so happy to know. Thank you again.. oosssss ;)
Off topic. Out of curiosity based on observation. Did you move, or is that a different part of your house? lol Different kitchen from your newer videos.
