How I Train Martial Arts 

Nat---"just a quick warmup we do every now and again." also Nat---"First one to die loses"

Your Boxing looks some kind of mix with karate punches it's like you created your own personal martial art and i find it cool actually

Nat: "Nothing too serious, just messing around." Also Nat: "First to die loses." 😂 8:03

Me trying to go to sleep The upstairs neighbour:

Bullying at school has been growing and its been stressful lately. I'm going to try and start a martial art (thinking muay Thai) but I don't have any "proper equipment" and there's little to non professional dojos of any martial art near me. I already have quite good leg strength and decent flexibility but I don't know if i can train in a martial art without physical teachers. If anyone has any tips or videos that could help me it would be appreciated but its completely fine. To everyone who reads this have a good day!

It's a good soft/30% sparring. I like it. Keeps the heart beating and helps work on techniques. Stretching always helps and I love it all, personally. Helps do good deep stances

I just noticed how you have your old belts up on the rafters. very cool!

Planning on doing a big regime change in the new year and transitioning to more martial arts based exercises than my bulking weight lifting routine, will definitely use this video.

Hi, Your boxing is ok for a martial artist, if you want to box like a boxer then concentrate on your footwork 1st. You switch as if you're going to kick. But you need to firstly think weather you want to box like a boxer.

Yo nate, big fan, your an amazing martial artist. Just when you box you have to loosen up. You're like a karate robot even when you box. Don't let your punches hang, bring them back to your guard as soon as possible. Other than that it's all good. Keep going!

Everything you do is great and very inspiring. Thank you

Truly inspiring, one of the reasons I kept training martial arts is because of you Nat Keep up the great work man! Osu!!

Muito obrigada pelo vídeo sensei! Seus vídeos que mais gosto são quando vocÊ mostra ou fala sobre seu progresso ao longo dos anos, é muito motivador! Lamento as críticas cruéis que vocÊ sofreu, mas fico um pouco aliviada de ver que nem mesmo vocÊ, que é um atleta brilhante, escapa da maldade das pessoas. Apenas não dê ouvidos e continue seu ótimo trabalho! Um abraço do Brasil! Ossu

Hi Nat could you make a long video whit basic kicks, punches stances and other things to get started.

Hey Nat, great video. Your kicks are amazing. I’m a kickboxer who came from shotokan karate and just wanted to give you a tip when you’re sparring. Instead of moving in and out, like a blitz, I suggest moving circularly or at an angle. So for example, every time you jab, you could step in but also out a small bit with your lead leg, or if you’re cornered you could use your lead arm to angle off your opponent by blocking their vision and circularly moving out. Hope this helps! I love your videos!!

Bro you got great energy, super humble, never stop bro you got true supporters here, love bro❤️❤️

I love this video, you gave some advice and the sparring session where nice for me to learn a bit. Pls produce some more of this videos

man that question mark kick is beautiful

Obviously my fave video ever like ever ever. Seriously. Bravo!

Ur boxing has improved a lot tbh it actually looked pretty solid

Constructive feedback, as requested. When throwing those lead hand body shots, (9:11) youre leading in a bit with your head. Now, it may be camera angle, but it looks real prime for a solid cross stright to the face. A suggestion would be to obscure the head exposure by firing a cross, then turn into that lead hand body shot. The idea being that you could minimize the window for a counter by not throwing it naked. Good training video!

I often use roundhouses and switch question mark kicks as a beginner in kicking and honestly, you are motivating me right now 😶

Bro could kill a man with his jawline

Hello I’ve been looking forward to this for ages

Boxing advice. You ought to angle and circle around the bag as well as mix up range, intensity and power output.

Really enjoying your content i think your short form is great but maybe do some more random long form like at a competition (though upload after for saftey) or maybe some of your favourite katas or showing mauy thai conditioning drills

When I was learning to box after having done karate what helped me the most was slowly adjusting my stances. I started with arms lower and focusing on the legs/footwork and keeping my head moving. Then I steadily raised the hands. You do well enough that if you get everything but the arms down first the arms will get there.

Tip for boxing Nat when you throw a punch in both training and sparring keep your hands up cus its easier to block punches and it will help you get good counter strikes aswell

Incorrect skipping for 30 minutes doesn’t skipping intensely for 30 minutes does

Sensei , vocÊ é incrível e me inspiro muito na sua trajetória! É impressionante ver os vídeos do seu progresso. Teve um vídeo que vocÊ disse que não se considera um terceiro dan porque é muito jovem, mas o número de horas de karatÊ que vocÊ tem com certeza é mais do que muitos desses seus haters tem de vida. Você é muito inspirador, por favor continue nos mostrando seus treinos e seu progresso. Eu tento conciliar musculação e karatÊ, está sendo bem difícil, sinto dores de lesões hahahahaha Mas o meu sensei é formada em ciências esportivas e ele me orienta, percebi que preciso reduzir a frequência da musculação. The language is brazilian portuguese, I didn t said it all in English cause I wanted to be sure that I was delivering u the correct message. Talking from Brazil Huge hug! Great training sessions for u Oss 😀😀🥰💛💚

You train like a legend you are. 👍🏻

Ok so I do have some notes on the boxing, you should twist your hand more on the jab (thumb should point slightly down), I recently started doing this because I worked with a high level boxer who suggested it. Now my jab is hard and my shoulder is raised during because of this. Also, fully extend the cross to the head. Make sure your weight is going into it. Lead hook looks pretty damn good and so does the uppercut. Kicks are phenomenal.

My Taekwondo instructor combines boxing with our kicking combos. Having also recently started, Shotokan, I can see how the stances may seem a bit restrictive. But, as with Taekwondo, it's possible to incorporate a few combos into karate.

Hey Nat. Hope you are well. I am by no means an authority on boxing but I do have about 6 months Muay Thai (Thai Boxing) experience and also come from a traditional background (Taekwondo). Noticing a couple of the mistakes which I did (and still do) make, which you can work on: 1. Pick a guard and stick to it: when punching always keep your hand tight to your head and don't lower your hands before you punch 2. When throwing a cross / overhand, try not to bend your knee as much, but twist through the ball of your foot and your hips for power instead 3. To minimise risk of a concussion keep your chin down so your opponent doesn't catch you on the jaw but rather on the forehead (good for your brain and bad for their knuckles) 4. When throwing the body jab (great technique btw) try and slip instead of ducking so your power goes forward 5. Play around with multiple forms of defense (head movement, parrying, long guard, high guard, ect) Thanks for the awesome content and good luck. :)

Thank you for the coupon code. I always order from Hayabusa and this really helps. God Bless you

Boxing looks solid. Of course you can notice the style you do is not rooted in boxing, but you do not really do too much that would be considered wrong. If i would say anything, it is that you should do more head movement and more defensive moves when on the bag. Even tough the bag doesn’t hit back, you should act like it can. Also you shuffle around your hands in the guard, and occasionally drop them low, but these are just bad habits and you should be able to fix them, and they only happen occasionally. (This is before watching the sparring) After the watching the sparring I have some suggestions. You need to improve the footwork. For example when throwing the jab, you sometimes step forward with the lead leggings, without moving the rear and you get put in this really awkward super wide stance. You seem to not be so agile while in this stance, and it is almost like you were standing there waiting to get hit because you had such a hard time to move. This is just 1 example. If you want it could give more, but I won’t bother writing knowing if you would read it. Also when he gets into closer range after backing you up into a corner, you are obviously uncomfortable and want to get out. You even crouch down and do some weird stuff. Instead, i would just suggest clinching. Just clinching up and try to get out while he can’t throw punches.

You should do some more calisthenics videos Nat, I can see the gravity weight vest (I've got the same one), do you use it for just push ups and squats?

You have a great physique and your kicks are just on another level, hope to be like you!

Great training session.. Also, cool dojo.. I always dream of having one lol

I love this type of videos❤👍🏻

This video was amazing. Would like to see more of your routines 🔥

you got awesome kicks man

Nat, could you show us how you block an opponents kicks?

You work so much harder than any Martial artist i have seen Respect for your hard work.❤❤❤❤ I'm a Martial artist but I don't even work that hard I only work out and stretch.

yo nat i noticed in your boxing segment, after you threw a combination you kick that lead leg back, causing a bit of a pattern, combination > step back with the lead foot > step back in with it along with a strike 4:36

love your content

Hey nat i would like to know where your dojo place is? And also can you make a video on how to improve kicks without a punching bag

Bruv your boxing is fine! Don't worry about it. You're a karate guy but you're going out of your way to practice boxing. That's great.

Man you're fast ⏩ and I don't know why people in the comment section trying to teach you 😂 they haven't tried it either

THE MEDALS.👏👏👏👏👏

My suggestion is, can you use the nunchacku in your wall? I've been noticing it in your other videos, thankss!!

mate, your kicks are a work of art. If i have seen anything wrong with your boxing, is that you should pop that jab more, youre using it merely as a range_finder. try taking it back just as fast as you threw it. then it will burn the opponents face. Also, if you wanna put more power in it, jab as you step with your lead leg, think of it like the end of a stiff blunt stick. Apart from that, you have good boxing, and are very unpredictable, it would be pretty awkaward tp fight you. Cheers and sorry for the bad english.

Hey Nat can’t wait for 1 mil! Love your vids so much would you want a career in fighting or would you prefer coaching?

Your martial arts skills are insane! I wish I could train like you but I only do boxing :(

When throwing your jabs sometimes your right elbow picks up exposing your body, you can practice keeping a tighter guard by holding a towel or shirt to your body with your elbow

I'm a 165 cm, 52kg girl doing kickboxing since 2 months and I always look in awe at the sheer power of people bigger than me. I know that if I train I can get stronger yadayada but in the meantime I'm just in awe everytime :D Your dojo looks amazing btw

that spar tho, i feel my quads burning just from watching your slips!

I just recently Boxing and I think I should learn from you

Skipping is amazing, it helps you wake up and get into your rhythm. It looks like he started with Middle Split, then Frog Pose, Cossack type.. stretch, Hammy stretch, hell yeah

Hey, i just have a question: Where do you train? Like, do you have a dojo or that's a room at your home/apartment? Love your vids bro 👊

omg finally a training sesssion vid!!

Nice video i needed to know the stretches

Would love to see you spar with your karate or share content of your winnings (unsure if you have)

also, you have the same style as i do, bouncing in and out. This wimm make your opponent used to it. When he does, wait a little longer than you would when you enter range to punch, this usually caughts them off guard. Cheers!

Bro really said: A FEW MEDALS !?😂

If you hate stretching doing yoga a little to focus on breathing while stretching can help make it less annoying and get you deeper and that stuff its rlly cool

what do you do for your joints like knees and stuff

A big difference in karate and boxing is the footwork In boxing the foot fully twist and are unguarded and loose In karate we have to check out not getting sweep or calf kick where as in boxing you have no fear of being hit in leg or falling

I'm no professional, but here's some things I've seen professional boxers do: 1. The hands ALWAYS stay up, you have to keep a constant guard. 2. Change angles frequently (you can do this on the bag & in sparring). Changing angles can give you a tactical advantage; more openings, and it also can give you extra momentum in your punches if done right. Try snapping to another side of the bag/your opponent and attacking from there. Like I said, I'm no professional, but I hope I was helpful 👍

Throw two jabs then an overhook then step back....if you wanna keep going then try to pretend duck over a long rope then throw a vicious right/left hook whichever you feel comfortable with

kicks are pretty impressive :]

Hey Nat I just wanna ask what Karate fighting style are you doing because I do shotokan

The only critique I have on the boxing is something that I've had to learn recently as well. Head movement is great but if you don't move your whole body as well your gonna get caught. Other then that your doing really well man. Keep up the good work.

My constructive criticism (kickboxer, not boxer) Whenever you jab with your lead hand, your backhand drops below the chin. A opponent like you would blow your brain out with a head kick when you miss your front jab. Stay tight stay defensive (at least for kickboxing)

show us some of your fights nat

Streching is very boring but it gives very awesome exciting results.

How can we mix MMA with weight training (for lean aesthetic muscles)

Which type of Skipping rope you use for Martial Arts?

Best martial arts content creator..... Never skip leg day.🙃

I have a question, I’m on your flexibility program and it has done wonders, but can I cut the cool-down time in between sets, or would that be unsafe?

What mats are you using in your dojo

my boxing coach used to use a ridge hand strike for his hook, and it was longer, also try to punch from your forearms, kinda like a cat, and when you throw your punches act like your are rowing, kinda like those cat statues you’d see in a chinese food place. I hope you understand what i am trying to say😂 my boxing coach did karate before boxing and he mixed a lot of his karate into the boxing, also after you throw your punches throw a jab after, don’t get used to throwing two punches and stopping, i know we use legs elbows and knees too however for you hands make combos and end them with a jab or double jab after

Generally speaking when punching for power you should aim to punch through your target. Also your stance will change how most punches feel.

Nat is the kinda guy that dose a karate kick on his date

When boxing i think you should squat whaen you need to dodge or counter attack cause it gets you in a really awkward position sometimes, so yea thats about it

So it wasn't the wind in those karate/kung-fu movies

Awesome content!

Last summer I tried to train my hamstrings but when I stretched I stood wider so I didnt stand straight because I copied my fencing coach. But when I downloaded your program I was able to reach my toes after 2nd week. Today im on my 12th week and I can reach my heels without any issues. I can also do a axe kick very good.

Which muscles of the back are crucial for a powerful punch?

I hate stretching hips, any suggestions on hip stretch exercises?

I hate skipping, but I cant deny it's good for you Also you probably know this already know/do this, but when your punching look down through your eyebrows and move your shoulder up to or around your ear, doing this means that your are at less risk of hooks ,because of your shoulder placement, and your opposite hand shields the other side of your face which puts you only at risk of uppercuts, but people don't generally throw many uppercuts (touch wood). Also congrats on 900k soon at that million

Hey man I was wondering what kind of mat are those are they on Amazon

Do you follow any kind of workout routine (for example like a 5 day split for different muscles) or is your strength purely based on abusing that bag?

@nathearm hi I'm max I am a teawodo student 1st year just a quick note I have [cerebral palsy] means brain damage causing paralysis what should I do when practicing outside of lesson

Happy birthday Nat bro 🍰🍰🎉

Tip for boxing: make your stance shorter

The Dojo Tour that everyone asks for in the comment section 7:08 🤩

Wow man those kicks are amazing i might start muay tahi as my martial art

I train hamstrings everyday. 3 - 5 sets of 90 seconds. Hamstrings is my favorite because their easy to stretch where ever.
