- Yo, what's up?
I'm OT Genesis.
This is where I work out at.
We lift, we fight, we recover.
So let's go.
(hands clap)
So basically, training helps me a lot.
You know, when I'm on stage.
So I don't run out of breath,
open my hips up, when I'm on stage running back and forth
because I am a performer
and most importantly so I can whoop somebody's ass.
(hiphop music)
So what I'll do is I'll start shadowboxing
for at least three minutes, you know, loosen up,
and then after that would get in a sparring with somebody.
So, I shadowbox a little bit, you know, getting loose.
You know, cardio does a lot,
but I love it because it gets my heart rate just going.
Hitting a heavy bag helps me clear my mind.
So anything that's going on outside the gym,
doesn't really matter.
(bag whapping)
Just me and a bag.
(powerful bag whapping)
(hiphop music)
So we get to pummel and it's different.
It's a different type of workouts body on body workout,
working on your hips,
strengthening your core, three straight minutes.
- Sometimes before you spar,
sometimes we'll go combo after combo, right?
Which is kind of puts you in a situation
where you see a different set of nerves.
You still have somebody coming after you
or we get to preserve our heads or our bodies a lot more.
Anymore questions?
(sparring)
This allows you to work on your defense to
at the same time, in somewhat of a stressful situation.
(sparring)
(hiphop music)
I just finished up some boxing,
now I might go do the lifting.
So before we get to the big stuff,
we're going to take our time,
making sure we got our movement right.
So we're about to do 10 squats, 10 good mornings
and 10 behind the neck, neck presses.
So up next, we've got the trap bar deadlift.
This is a great posterior change exercise.
So when you're doing this,
you want to activate your hamstrings and glutes.
Keep your core tight,
so your back stays straight.
We're gonna do four sets of eight of these.
(exhaling)
we got another compound movement, back squat.
We're going do four sets to eight.
We're gonna keep our core tight and explode at the top.
Making sure that we squeeze our glutes.
(exhaling)
So up next, we have a half-kneeling landmine press,
four sets of eight.
(heavy exhale)
You make sure you tighten up your core, lean forward.
Try to flex the front ankle,
just like striking,
your elbows are going to come up your hips.
Exhale whenever you push.
Explode up.
We're about to do some chin ups.
Trying to make my workout a little bit harder,
by adding some chains.
Not one but two, three sets to a failure.
Let's go.
(hiphop music)
(metal clanging)
Now, I'm about to get into the infrared sauna.
The infrared sauna, this definitely ain't any normal sauna.
It helped me sweat out all the toxins,
especially from last night.
So I'll cool down by getting on the bike.
I'm O.T. Genesis, you worked out with me.
You just helped me do it, and I'm braking.
