Crazy to think I was watching Chael on Off the record back in the day talking about him for years and then here I am being interviewed by none other than Chael himself. Was an honour to speak with you. ⭕️
My two favorite uncles
You're videos motivated me to get my diet in check. You deserve a lot more views man
How do you ingest the caffeine? You can’t take a pill with water or drink coffee during the cut, no?
Cool work Greg remember asking you tips at the YMCA back in Yarmouth!
This is the most useful information in the shortest amount of time that's I've ever seen in any of Chael's videos. Great work Greg.
most ambitious crossover of the 21st century
1. Uncle Chael and Coach Greg
2. Spider-Man No Way Home
10000%
Anabolic
Haven’t seen the jimmy Timmy power hour then.
This was good!
“I’m a non-drinker myself, only PEDs”. LMAO! Chael never disappoints. 😆
Opened up the comments as soon as I heard that 😂
Time stamp?
@@lukats1549 17:19
Exactly what I was gonna comment. Lol uncle Chael is a top G
Yeah that was a good 1. Talk about self awareness lol
The greatest cross over in history
@@Dr.SmegmaJones true
Guy is a felon snitch who ratted out his steroid distribution partners. Search ot.
@@Dr.SmegmaJones nice one bud!! 😂 but seriously who expected this video
Literally came here to say this
The video we all needed but didn’t know it
Even when Chael is interviewing someone, he still sounds like he's having a monologue
lmao so true
It feels like Greg is reviewing one of Chael's videos lol
@@db1777 I thought chael was commentating a greg video when it started lmao
Very odd. Wonder if that's just his personality.
Coach Greg is a real one!
We need a full podcast with these two, this 18 minute clip was way too short
Typical Cheal video, it's always a teaser :(
Agreed!!!
look up "You're Welcome! With Chael Sonnen" anywhere you find podcasts, this episode should be dropping soon.
@@avynj269 thanks!!!
@@avynj269 it's weird that he releases these videos on UA-cam as individual segments and makes no allusion to the fact that the same content, in audio form only, goes out on Spotify twice a week labeled as a podcast
Never thought I’d see coach Greg on here! Greg helped me lose over 100+ pounds in the last two years through his videos. Hope they do a more long form video soon!
Congrats 100 lbs weight loss thats unreal
That’s unreal! Congrats on your hard work!
Yeah ive lost 500lbs because of coach Greg
@@mariusz7891 Volkanovski is that you?
Great Job!! Coach Greg is Great!!
As a former bodybuilder, for years I’ve been going crazy seeing how fighters cut weight. Thank you so much for disseminating this information.
Why do you say that? Is it the inability to perform after doing it? Genuinely curious, cheers
@@afnanbogey The inefficiency with which many do it inflicts so much unnecessary suffering. Obviously cutting is not healthy in any capacity, but the manner in which fighters tend to do it is more detrimental to their kidneys, cognitive ability, and less conducive to performing due to the excess muscle wasting and cortisol produced in the process.
@@bambammartin1556 cheers bro, appreciate the reply
Same day weigh ins would solve most problems
@@okusfayreno8599 agreed
2 of my favorites!!! 2 GOATs one video!! Would love to see a long form chat!! 2-3 hr podcast with these two would be awesome!!
I second this to the fullest extent!!!
What happened to his voice?
@@fmcdomer who’s?
I wonder when we get to see Derek from More Plates More Dates
@@fmcdomer that's like his act that he puts on when he's doing videos. That like loud ass high pitched almost annoying voice isn't his real one lol
Chael sonnen: Hello Greg Doushane
Coach Greg: Hello Shaul sorren
*If you have been following these guys for long you'd realise how they both butcher others' names and its a part of their charm.
Favorite crossover
Yeah as a martial artist and a 16 year old I can confirm this is absolutely dope as fuck
Im Definetely bad with names
@@gregdoucette Omg I'm gonna mark this moment. Uncle greg replied to me. Just so you know we all love you man love your stuff. This is *cookbook* awesome!
@@theunbeatable6598 Greg is the all-knowing GOAT
This is the crossover I never thought I'd get but I'm so happy I got it
The guy is a federal felon snitch. Google it.
@@GT-mn3bx not a snitch Google again tool
It’s crazy right
@@michaelmcclenon6663 No need to. The info is out there.
17:15 “I’m a non-drinker myself, only PEDS” - Chael P. Sonnen and the P stands for Undefeated.
that might be his best quote ever
Fuckin gold
@@stevedaddy3498 -Uncle- Lord Chael is world renowned for being Undefeated and Undisputed.
@@RonniePTexan
He KOed 9 men at once while defending a women's honor. Not even a mod could take away that 0.
Why would Chael need peds when he can take turkesterone?
Holy shit it's coach. I never thought this would happen after Chaels comments about "steroid freaks" with young Derek. Also love you uncle
He wasn’t talking about Derek. He likes Greg and Derek.
All we need now is chael and dereck lmao
Derek and Coach Greg were both baffled when Chael talks about the "steroid freak" 🤣
Why would they need steroids when they have Turkesterone?
The ppl who died from creatine at the NCAAs. They were drinking it after weighing in. What wasn’t said was there was 2 or 3 weigh ins. So when the creatine absorbed all the water in the muscles. When they started cutting weight again the water wasn’t coming out of the muscles. It started coming out of the organs.
Tbf that is stupid af lmao they probably thought it would help them retain water or some shit 😂
@@ciaranmck4469 yeah it helped them feel better cuz it makes the muscles feel stronger
This makes me feel bad. But im also grateful to know the truth
@@DAVID-cz8xx more then that the phospho creatine in the brain would be restored.
This was a shocking delight to see in my feed.. didn't know I needed this Collab.💪🏼👊🏼🔥
Best crossover in UA-cam History. One more for the record books. One more for the win column. And one more chance to go harder than last time.
I just started watching Greg to loss the weight ive had my whole life and now he's on the goat of UA-cam and MMA channel. I haven't even watched it yet but but no joke Thank you guys for this.
Honestly a full guide to weight cutting would be cool. Like day by day everything you need to do
Fighters would definitely benefit from that. It would be nice to have that.
There’s loads,Sigma weight cutting system for one.There’s plenty of “guides”. Also plenty of research out there
Year later but Wonderboy Thompson has a couple videos on his channel showing what he does for his weight cut. Wonderboy has his father as a coach so all of the info in those videos is Wonderboys dad’s idea.
Finally, this reunion was a great idea
These 2 make for a great combo, both credible and entertaining. We need more of this!
FINALLY!!! The collab we all want
No. The guy is a felon snitch who ratted out all his steroid dealer partners. Search it. Guy is a scumbag.
This crossover makes me feel like I've entered the multiverse
We need 2 hours of this minimum
Thanks for this. Weight cutting is the one thing I hate the most when coming into fight week. Two fights in a row now, I contemplated quitting fighting because how miserable the few days before the weigh-ins are.
Just fight at your normal weight! No cut , may give up a little size but will be much better for prep and for gas tank !👍💪💪💪
@@paulkemp6314 this is what I’m planning to do from now on. Two weeks ago, I took a fight on 2 days notice as a replacement for an injured fighter. I was 24 lbs underweight, but no one else will fight the guy and I don’t care much about my amateur record, so I went for it. I felt really good, no weight cutting. I submitted the guy in the first round after some heavy exchanges. Yes, his strikes hurt like baseball bats. But it was amazing how much damage I could tolerate before I could implement my game plan.
this is such a smart crossover cause when i started getting into the bodybuildng and nutrition stuff, i always thought the mma guy s could learn so much about weight cutting and how to do it in a healthy manner, and now here we are, i really think some of the ufc fighters would benefit hiring a high level bodybuilding coach for nutrition and weight cutting tips
The thing is bodybuilders don't prioritize health themselves. Bodybuilding is a sport where doping is expected and dieting to near death is incentiviced. There's a reason they drop like flies. I don't think people like greg will make weight cutting healthier
@@user-uv3li8tk4r you don't know what you're talking about
@@dirtydard4870 how so?
@@user-uv3li8tk4r yes he can because his been trough it all , he has the experience and the knowledge and how to do it naturally
got a fight may 14 thanks coach greg and uncle chael, never dissapoint
Good luck bro
Good luck man
Good luck mate
Awesome glad to see these two talking been hoping this would happen
This is the best combo in history
I've never would've expected this collab holy shit
I really enjoyed listening to Greg , thanks Chael. This was great interview clips , helps when a man can chat like the king of all monologues, the best ever with a mic 🎤 Chael . Great job guys , look forward to more interviews on your channel. The GOAT, well my favourite fighter of all time , a true icon .
PS: It's great to see Greg when he's not "on" and leaning into his persona. Such an intelligent and informative individual.
I like this version way better than the dollar store Gilbert Gottfried version
Coach Greg and Uncle Chael… what a crossover !!!!
This came outa NOWHERE. Absolute gold these 2 really go good together.
Two legends. What a blessing
Got tired of Greg due to his over the top persona but man his reputation speaks for itself. Nice crossover. Greg is definitely breaking the mold.
He was too red & whiney last time I seen him
These types of videos when he's just talking calmly are great. When he's yelling and screaming he's pretty whiney
Y'all trippin. Coach Greg is the MAN and now that Gilbert Gottfried is dead we need him now more than ever.
@@xcaluhbration Yeah Buddy! When he is dissecting those Mike'O and Jeff videos it is freaking hilarious. I blew Heineken out my nose one night laughing so hard.
greg taught me soooo much. so cool to see him on here. his cookbook is elite.
His cookbook is for the rich and wasteful. If you follow his cookbook you will garaunteed waste tons of money. You buy the minimum amount available of a particular ingredient, use only a small portion of it, and it goes bad before using it again in the cook book.
@@TheZgriffin ...guaranteed? It seems whatever problem you have is entirely on your end.
@@nevertakeadayoff obviously taking some tips, tricks, meal ideas here and there won't hurt. If you actually follow it though, what I said will happen. Read the actual reviews of people who actually tried to follow it they will all tell you that's its biggest flaw.
What a crossover! Would love to see a full podcast with them both. Would also love to see Derrick from MPMD on with Chael
Great video. I enjoy watching. I like that Chael says what everyone else is thinking but is afraid to say.
Not sure if you will read this but Chael, I coached in Roseburg Oregon for 25 years. Fought West Linn a million times. Remember you in high school.
I guess I should have gone public with all the weight making strategies we serious cutters have developed over the years. However, the NFHSCA and the NCAA has made making weight such a taboo that we never talk about it. I've coached for 35 years at the high school level and wrestled for over 50 years. I was calculating the other day that I may have participated in or attended around 1000 weigh-ins. What I have been telling my guys forever is this:
1. Shrink your body. This is long term fitness. Eat right, excercise, etc.,
2. 5% body fat - 5% water weight. Those are the limits. And that is if you are in world class shape.
3. Water weight no more than 36 hours before the weigh in. Preferably 24.
4. That last 24 hours = least amount of energy spent for max sweat. In college we had a 5 hour weigh in for dual meets. I could be 6-8 pounds over sitting in class at noon. Loose 6 pounds in 40 minutes. Shower, relax in the sauna to burn the last pound or so. Weigh-in at 2pm. Wrestle at 7pm.
5. Gotta do a test run before competition and figure out how much water you can loose in a set.My guys now will get hot then watch fishing videos while cruising on the stationary bike.
6. Dress: tights. longsleave performance t, plastics (exercise/sauna suit) sweat pants, hooded sweatshirt, wind breaker, stocking cap. Once hot ad the parka.
7. 15 minutes stiff pace - get hot. 15 minutes circuit Jog, bike, rope. 15 minutes circuit bike, rock on a chair or bench, rub down. 15 minutes rub down, rest, peal slowly. 1hr set = 6+.
Often times we do this the night before weigh in because in high school we have to travel early. We will leave the building that night on weight. Pick up a footlong sub and a 20oz gatorade. Each 6" and drink the gatorade, keep the other 6 for after weight in. Be 1.5 over, float the 1.5 and make weight in the morning. Never really miss a meal. For example a 140 pounder can manage 5% of his body weight comfortably and be a 132 pounder and never miss a meal. A bigger guy can loose more. 220 = 11 or 12 pounds.
I know that the critics will say that draining that much water is sooooo unhealthy, it is soooooo dangerous, it is soooooooo NO IT IS NOT.
I have 50 years of action research that says its OK. I've personally done it a 100 times.
Great information that validates what we already knew to be true.
COACH GREGGGGG!!!
The duo I never knew I needed
Great minds having a great conversation. We need more, much appreciated!
Yes!!!!!!!!!!! When MMA and Bodybuilding meet. Same vibe as when Derek and Rogan met.
I can’t believe this. This …. This is a beautiful collab 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼
We need a full podcast guys, cmon.
What a trippy episode !
I'm from the BB world myself ,but a huge MMA fan for years.
Crazy to see Greg on here.
Holy smokes, what a crossover!!!!
Uncle Chael and Coach Greg oh my god this is the greatest crossover I could have asked for
Chael continues to redefine the whole game even in his retirement… the true GOAT
Love this combo with all my heart 💚
DUDE ABSOLUTELY TREMENDOUS CROSSOVER
Sensei Greg… AND Uncle Chael!!! Wow, I never thought I’d see the day! This is primo content!
Two of the GOATs!!! Have listened to both for a long time- especially enjoy that Chael made himself a star as a heel, but seems like the nicest, coolest guy ever
Nice to Greg on a mma channel he’s great .
The greatest collaboration since Dre and Snoop 😍
This was awesome! Coach Greg and uncle chael!
This was extremely interesting
I haven't even watched a second and this is already the greatest video in the history of the human race
i cant believe the 2 chanels i watch the most on youtube are doing a colab.......what a time to be alive!
"I'm a non drinker myself, only PED'S" I lost it 🤣
Super happy to see this collab, two people I've watched for a long time. Great content!
This was super interesting. I appreciate professionally informative material and this was certainly that.
Would love to know Part 2 of this process: Recovery. What's the best method for replinishing fluids, glycogen, etc. within 24 hours to be ready for a fight or powerlifting competition? Drinking Pedialyte and eating simple carbs? Any pitfalls to avoid?
love when my uncles get along
Gotta love it when two people you enjoy listening to get together to have a conversation. Two thumbs up
The collab we didn't know we needed
"im a non-drinker myself, just peds" 17:20 LMAO ANYONE| ELSE CATCH THAT???
Paulo Costa needs to be watching this
Needed this 3 years ago when I cut down to 77kg from 83kg in a day for the first time and started getting tinnitus in the hot bath. Also missed weight at first and had to hit pads for 30 minutes til I shed a kilo. Learn from me, don’t eat a 20 pack of chocolate penguins and a kebab after weigh in. Turned a 1st round knockout into a 30-27 decision win due to lack of power.
What would you recommend to eat after weigh in
@@Berelo320 I’d stick to foods you perform well on. Mine is grass fed steak, pasta and fruit. Eat clean. Eat loads of small meals. After you weigh in, drink a quite a lot of water slowly with electrolytes. Don’t eat for 30-45min to let your stomach prepare for food with the water. Go home, eat and rest. Prepare for any and everything. Be adaptable and nothing will phase you. Lastly, make sure you shit before you step on the scales.
@@raziel2592 appreciate the input
@@Berelo320 fruit,easily digestible, noninflammatory carbohydrate 😉
17:19 I'm a non drinker myself only PEDs🤣
THIS WAS SUCH A TEASE!! Umm… have the stars and planets aligned?? When Chael gets Derek: More Plates More Dates on, I can die peacefully.
I've been telling people about Greg doucette for about 2 years now...!
He is a felon snitch who snitched on his steroid dealer partners. Search it.
@@GT-mn3bx what does that have to do with zero calorie Walden farms ranch dressing
The baddest man from Canada and America collide
Coach greg breaking it down, i been schooling these mma nerds who think they know it all but they have such big egos they not even open to conversate.
Coach Greg and Uncle Chael?! This is a collaboration I didn't realize I needed.
Coach Greg wishes his arms were as big as Chael's 💪
Lesss go. Glad to see Coach Greg 💪
17:20 “I’m a non-drinker myself, only PEDs” - Uncle Chael
This was awesome. Wish it was longer!
Coach Greg is an absolute Legend!!!
Give us more of this Chael please!
Good mashup
My Dr and the undefeated together at last!!
THE CROSSOVER WEVE ALL BEEN WAITING FOR!!!
These are awesome. Greg and Chael make for great convo.
One of the best videos educationally, need more like this chael
Love this style of content from you. More of this please ☺️
Where’s the rest of the video? This was so good, I want to see more of these 2!
Chael can you do another video with Greg or Derek. Any topic I would listen to. I crave for this type of content
Gotta love coach Grayg
Watching these Two Minds together in the same video is a dream come true, Coach Greg helped me lose weight while gaining Muscle without any crazy dieting. And Chael has helped me analize fights better.
Best crossover ever!!!!!!!! Like who would ever think these legends would ever talk
Damn Greg Doucette finally made it
Love coach Greg this a good collaboration. Respect from Australia.
Doc Greg and Uncle Chael. What a pleasant surprise.
great collaboration to enjoy!
This was very helpfull! Awsome crossover. Always a good time lstng to you Chael! Love from South Africa
-Uncle- Lord Chael also beat the scale. Undefeated and Undisputed
Great episode this one.
Thank God. One more moose meat taco, and one more video before bed. Much love from Maine!
Love this duo damn
Uncle Chael is lying. He never had to cut weight. His ⚖️ scale was too scared to disappoint him. It always weighed him in, PERFECTLY! (BADASS INC. ✊🐐!!!!)
Coach Greg knows his stuff for sure!
