I watched this video 2 years ago when I was overweight, drinking alcohol, smoking and living very unhealthy life. I was 21 but could not run 100 meters without shortness of breath. Until then, living the life in the edge seemed cool, but after watching this video his way of life seemed so cool to me that I thought "Damn, I want to be like him".

I like how he talks about focusing on the training rather than the results of the training. It's the same way with art. I get too focused on the story I'm hoping to write instead of the story I'm actually writing and it hurts cause the story is never as good as it was in my head. It's really demotivating. And I think it's that way with anything creative, really.
@Quazi Roberts I mean it doesn't take an expert to notice how much he is spending on supplements.

I just realized that martial artist are the smartest athletes in the world. Well connected with their bodies, mind and world. And probably some of the most humble athletes as well.
@@kevinaraujo4945 you could say the same about any great boxer. Take the gloves off and allow everything and it's a different story. Boxing is one dimensional.
I used to hate the atmosphere around MMA, but this video changed my mind a bit. Kon Gracie is so inspiring, peaceful and aware of his surrounding. two thumbs up!
Aimee Frost how about they go to the Gracie gym and challenge someone, obvs the top of the game now in sport jiu jitsu is far better but they are still great and Rickson won’t get beat by anyone
This is such good advice. Ive had a lot of conversations with younger people in my life saying that they can eat anything they want and be fine. "All I eat is sugar and Im thin, what the big deal?" I always say to them when you're older you will understand.
You don't even need 10 hour of sleep. In fact 10 hours of sleep is too much. It makes your body too dehydrated and muscle soreness. The ideal is 6-8 hour. 7h is the perfect mark. When to sleep is also important. The ideal is 9pm/10pm to 4am/5am.
Well at midnight he said he’d be up for another 4 hours, and at the start of the video we saw he was just getting up at 11:40 AM the next day. That’s like 7 hours of sleep, not too bad.
It's not so bad when they're all hardwired to drop and do twenty when you tell them to. I dread to think what discipline in a Gracie household looks like
I love this guy, just from knowing about him for 6 months. That loss to Cub Swanson was tough, but I believe as Krons striking gets better great things are instore for him.
started training like this when I went pro and damn.. never been more exhausted in my life.. wake up, get a small meal and it's literally 6 hours of grinding your body and soul in to powder lol it's worth it when you finally get a rest day and actually have energy but I totally know that feeling of going home at the end of day and eating a solid meal.. heaven
Yeah, but for trying to push high muscle recruitment at a low weight it seems pretty good. He gets a lot of micro nutrients through his diet. Not by any means an expert, but I can definitly see the reasoning for such a diet.
He probably makes a pretty good living. He doesn't have a huge house but he does have a nice truck, and a massage chair lol. If he didn't eat like this he wouldn't even be able to keep up with his own lifestyle, so it's worth it
I still watch this once a year or twice, since years ago, i always come back here... motivational its all about this video for me, something also about the style, so cool
What I learned from this is basically he eats in 24 hrs what I can have in one meal, two toasts, some lentils, sushi and a burrito. But he trains like 8 hrs,that's why he's so ripped and keeps the body fat down.
@WIKIPEDIA lol, you think joe would beat kron?? You don't know the difference between an active world class black belt jj competitor vs a 50+ year old black belt?? Seriously? Not all black belts are the same at all lol. Kron would tap joe out 20 times in 10 min.
@WIKIPEDIA " what you said is poopoo...." wtf? Anyway, you just told some other guy that you don't think jioe could beat Kron but he would beat him up?? Clearly you're not all there so I'm gonna stay out if this one.
Gracie’s boxing usually suck cuz they don’t focus on it, they usually use kicks and punches just to close the distance, get the clinch, and get the fight to the ground. I don’t think this style would work these days against good wrestlers.
Right? That dude is a huge inspiration he seems so fullfilled in what he is doing and seems to enjoy every single thing he does! I think he is adorable
Indeed. I like that he mentioned how he could be putting on muscle mass and eating lots but it's unnecessary since martial arts is technique and cardio and conditioning and he's trying to make weight easily
Ive basically tried most of these eating techniques of small light meals a day eating every 2 hours and felt great but somewhat weak and slow until i started eating allot after and noticed improved speed and strength, kinda like a boxer after making weight. Also tried that 1 big meal a day felt fine and`strong, muscle mass didn't increase like i hoped, but felt strong and got stronger. Now i am doing the heavy protein meals boiled eggs and turkey bacon and just eating what i please, but not going crazy and just eating a piece of chocolate cake or ice cream cookies and i feel great and is gaining muscle mass and losing weight getting cut, so it's working, 3 days a wee,k 3 hours of weight lifting and martial arts training, with no problem and when i need extra rest i take 1 or 2 or 3 days off, i guess what works for you and what you like will work , everyone's body isn't the same and different things work for different people.
@@Foralluhaterz you do realize you could easily say the same the other way around right? lmao. He is not a striker but went up against a striker... so your point is invalid IDIOT.
Can we just take a moment to appreciate what he said how he trains the way he trains because his body tells him that it's the right way. He's not doing it this way because he learned from a trainer or whatever this took years and dedication by listening to his body. I that is very important to people who are just starting their weight loss journeys and/or journey to healthier living. Hes not on any fixed diets he listens to his body and that took him years to accomplish, so when you're doing your own thing and its not working out dont feel discouraged or beat down just know that these things take time and lots of trial and error. And if you feel like its a lost cause please take a break and come back with a clearer point of view and always remember that your body follows your mind, so when u feel like crap ur body will feel like crap. Prioritize your mental health and your body will heal❤
@@JK-vc7ie that’s only something to consider. If you do what you do only to win, but he does what he does because his body tells him that’s what he needs to be healthy and happy so he does it. Of course winning probably means something to him but it’s not everything. It’s been a very long time since I’ve seen this one and I would need to rewatch it to properly reply but for now I’m going off of memory
@@JK-vc7ie also a big part of competitions is not just being physically strong but mentally. it doesnt matter if hes good if his mentality only gives him a short lived career, is basically what im trying to say. i suppose the validity of ur comment is determined by what he prioritizes.
@@JK-vc7ie his results are bad because he is not a good striker, he relies a lot on grappling making him a one dimensional fighter, another example of this is ryan hall.
To know anything about this guy you need to go back to his father & grandfather. He's a carbon copy of his father. The breathing thing is something his father did. I don't understand why people on here are so obsessed with his striking. You don't have to pound someone's face in to be able to beat the shit out of them. This guy has mad skill/ technique. His dad is a legend, a master. So was his grandfather. He's undefeated so far. He deserves respect. Not only for being undefeated but for who & where he comes from. We should all be so lucky to come from such a tight knit family.
If you're gonna be an MMA fighter, you HAVE to learn to strike at least competently or you become one dimensional. If you're one dimensional in MMA, you lose. That simple.
His striking is absolute dogshit. I respect his ground game, he's obviously a one of a kind, elite grapple, but this is MMA. He needs major work on his striking fundamentals. He looks like a guy 2 weeks into boxing classes at the local rec center
TGRgrimreaper209 what are you talking about? It’s trending after his win there’s plenty of folks here cause he just won his debut. Stop acting like a child.
What? Are uou high? Lol 😆 He is not eating cartoon. Even so there are vegans out there boxing. The diet doesn't HAVE ANYTHING to do with your performance.
Just turned 24, I've been living similarly for about 2 years now, the change was slow but I noticed how I would feel after every meal and found that eating highly nutritional food in smaller amounts made me feel better, I eat alot of veggies fruit and meats/ fish, I eat very little carbs as they cause me massive inflammation in my back when I work out. My key difference tho is I heavily rely on my meat/fats for calories and energy and the sugars i get usually get burned up so fast it doesn't support me for long
@@texasbeaver8188 It's just white millennial girls are into all the health trends such as pressed juices and compressed shots of ginger and things of that nature. And someone like Kron does follow this kind of lifestyle , the MMA half is self explanatory.
TheBardeng of course, hes a trained fighter and im a white collar professional. Doesn’t change the fact that he has the dietary habits of a girl named becky that drives a volkswagen.
he's a gracie and they have bjj gyms all over the country. he also probably trains ufc athletes as well so Im pretty sure he can cover his spending habits.
I don't think he left it with the bike because someone can steal whats inside. I think he either left it with the camera crew, or does Santa Monica beach have some public lockers for the people to use? Munchies.... please..... I need answers...
I’m 41 and I’ve been strict pescatarian since I was 15. I’m an ex martial artist who used to compete regularly. I really don’t miss meat at all and I never crave it. Vegetarianism would be a step too far for me as I would crave fish so much.
@@BernardTilbert I hope your joking, because even without retrospect thats a fucking awful bet, like no offense, but you have to be a massive moron to even think about that bet, you just gave a donation.
This video and family is amazing. The love they have for their art and family is everything we need in this world. I love their philosophies and way of life. That nutrition though is on point. I would love to have a better breakdown to what he was eating in that Juice Cafe.
Kron is an ADCC world champion. One of the best grapplers in the world. But for some reason he chose to be a striker and we haven't seen him in the UFC since his loss to Cub
Arnold Schwarzeniqqa No the juice was expensive too. Juice shops ain't cheap. It's like $10 and up just for a bottle of juice. Then the food he ate there was the same price.
He says there is no typical day to him, he follows his intuition. And that day Munchies showed a bunch of green notes... Sure he don't eat like that every day. But this for show and inspiration.
This guy is a fantastic role model to everyone on how to be so dedicated to your craft, seems like a really nice guy too salute to the Gracies amazing fighting family tree
It has to do with biblical connotations and culinary connotations (which were partially shaped by the biblical ones in the west). It's why squash, tomatoes and avocados are usually grouped with veggies even though they're fruits.
I think in Japanese culture it's not considered meat because of how it's written. Usually 2 characters and in most meats (pork etc) they all have a character for 'meat' but fish doesn't. Obviously it doesn't apply to this video or western culture. He'd be considered more pescetarian
lost 600 dollars. Thought he would be the one to conquer islam being a gracie and all. I'm done man. Can't even pay for my daughter's insulin. her bitch mother is taking her back. Lost uber job. I can't do it no more
Revisiting this video year after year is insightful. Seeing how Kron and myself have evolved in many ways and also stayed consistent in others. The way he trains in this video, particular the hybrid style and the way he rolls around on the mats with dynamic movements and breath have had such an impact on the way I move and train. Thanks Kron.

CONGRATULATIONS KRON ON HIS UFC DEBUT WIN!
I love these fuel episodes! Very inspirational :)
Kron is an awesome dude, wish this was longer..
This is such good advice. Ive had a lot of conversations with younger people in my life saying that they can eat anything they want and be fine. "All I eat is sugar and Im thin, what the big deal?" I always say to them when you're older you will understand.
Yeah I'm not surprised a man called "Kron" is oozing out some powerful looking Nen at 10:08.
Lol
He forgot the most important part, sleep you need sleep to perform at optimal level
I agree. The Matthew Walker JRE was eye opening.
Reading this at 4am hit hard
You don't even need 10 hour of sleep. In fact 10 hours of sleep is too much. It makes your body too dehydrated and muscle soreness.
The ideal is 6-8 hour. 7h is the perfect mark.
When to sleep is also important. The ideal is 9pm/10pm to 4am/5am.
Well at midnight he said he’d be up for another 4 hours, and at the start of the video we saw he was just getting up at 11:40 AM the next day. That’s like 7 hours of sleep, not too bad.
some people only need 6 hours. he's a fighter, not a body builder.
Whos here after his UFC debut?
Monkeyville shame smh
He needs a few more fights before Ortega but damn I was rooting for him to win his first fight. He did. Cheers
Monkeyville just u n all the new wwe fans you morons are easy to spot out

Well shit if FISH isn't meat then I'm a serial vegetarian as well.
they are all animals,but meat is not.. the word is invent with a distincion
"animal tissue considered especially as food", fish is meat.
so wtf is meat? so meat is fish?
Meat is any animal tissue which is consumed as food. Fish are animals and so when they're eaten they're considered meat.
21 kids is so overwhelming I’m tired just thinking about it lol
Why do you think he created a fighting system to deal with larger or multiple opponents? He had to.
It's not so bad when they're all hardwired to drop and do twenty when you tell them to. I dread to think what discipline in a Gracie household looks like
@@jeffreytmrichard Not trying to be a killjoy but BJJ isnt a good martial art for multiplr attackers but it is perfect for larger attackers.
@@TM-rh7zs I am a bjj guy mainly and I agree with you. One on one it's perfect. But against multiple people you need striking
@God Lee Tell that to the guy that believed BJJ was developed for multiple attackers not me.
I love this guy, just from knowing about him for 6 months. That loss to Cub Swanson was tough, but I believe as Krons striking gets better great things are instore for him.
Oh well this didn’t age well

started training like this when I went pro and damn.. never been more exhausted in my life.. wake up, get a small meal and it's literally 6 hours of grinding your body and soul in to powder lol it's worth it when you finally get a rest day and actually have energy but I totally know that feeling of going home at the end of day and eating a solid meal.. heaven

Tap out game strong, pull out game weak.
This guy's diet must be so expensive
Yeah, but for trying to push high muscle recruitment at a low weight it seems pretty good. He gets a lot of micro nutrients through his diet. Not by any means an expert, but I can definitly see the reasoning for such a diet.
i would think he's sponsored by most of those companies. all they want is free advertising on his part, which he did.
He probably makes a pretty good living. He doesn't have a huge house but he does have a nice truck, and a massage chair lol. If he didn't eat like this he wouldn't even be able to keep up with his own lifestyle, so it's worth it
He should try cooking something
Yeah,he doesn't cook except for breakfast.
I still watch this once a year or twice, since years ago, i always come back here... motivational its all about this video for me, something also about the style, so cool
He had a perfect debut in the UFC recently with a submission win! I can't wait to see his progress in the UFC.
I agree that we eat too much and can actually function better with less food.
Bojan Peček not necessarily less but more nutrient concentrated food
Jamal you’re correct.
Jamal true
says a guy who looks like he eats a fuck ton of waste
If that's your profile picture you don't really agree
What I learned from this is basically he eats in 24 hrs what I can have in one meal, two toasts, some lentils, sushi and a burrito. But he trains like 8 hrs,that's why he's so ripped and keeps the body fat down.
Its the cardio. Cardio leans you out.
@@1Skorpia no.. it's calories in vs calories out.. if you burn more calories than you eat.. you will always lose weight and be lean.

Vice bring back this series. It was 🔥🔥🔥
You're fulfilling a greater purpose with this video, thank you Kron
Joe Rogan would prob say his way of eating is bad....then he would start doing it.
Joe Rogan needs to stop running his mouth.
joe is a idiot.
@WIKIPEDIA what the fuck? There isnt enough toilet paper to wipe away the diarrhea that just came out of your mouth and onto the keyboard. holy shit.
@WIKIPEDIA lol, you think joe would beat kron?? You don't know the difference between an active world class black belt jj competitor vs a 50+ year old black belt?? Seriously? Not all black belts are the same at all lol. Kron would tap joe out 20 times in 10 min.
@WIKIPEDIA " what you said is poopoo...." wtf? Anyway, you just told some other guy that you don't think jioe could beat Kron but he would beat him up?? Clearly you're not all there so I'm gonna stay out if this one.
i understand he's not a striker but man, his bagwork's awkward
I thought, is it just me, or does this guy not know how to box at all?
@@Exype then again, he just won his UFC debut 🤷♂️
@@dustin3596 Well his boxing didn't do shit
Gracie’s boxing usually suck cuz they don’t focus on it, they usually use kicks and punches just to close the distance, get the clinch, and get the fight to the ground. I don’t think this style would work these days against good wrestlers.
Dustin dude are u kidding- it’s “won” not “ one”
The way the smoke is just volatilizing from his body is the hardest thing I’ve ever seen.
Kinda cool running around eating training all day where you grew up.
I'll definately try the eat smaller more often thing instead of huge meals
Right? That dude is a huge inspiration he seems so fullfilled in what he is doing and seems to enjoy every single thing he does! I think he is adorable
Indeed. I like that he mentioned how he could be putting on muscle mass and eating lots but it's unnecessary since martial arts is technique and cardio and conditioning and he's trying to make weight easily
Ive basically tried most of these eating techniques of small light meals a day eating every 2 hours and felt great but somewhat weak and slow until i started eating allot after and noticed improved speed and strength, kinda like a boxer after making weight. Also tried that 1 big meal a day felt fine and`strong, muscle mass didn't increase like i hoped, but felt strong and got stronger. Now i am doing the heavy protein meals boiled eggs and turkey bacon and just eating what i please, but not going crazy and just eating a piece of chocolate cake or ice cream cookies and i feel great and is gaining muscle mass and losing weight getting cut, so it's working, 3 days a wee,k 3 hours of weight lifting and martial arts training, with no problem and when i need extra rest i take 1 or 2 or 3 days off, i guess what works for you and what you like will work , everyone's body isn't the same and different things work for different people.
Great video but the title doesn't fit
"I'm 28 now there's only so long you can fight for"

To be fair, captain America is the exception not the rule lol. Love Randy

When Kron was misbehaving as a child his dad told him the Sakuraba was gonna get him :p
🤣🤣
There's maybe 20 people who've watched this video that will understand that
Hahaha most families tell their kids about the boogeyman, but the Gracie family tell their kids about Sakuraba
@@LoneWolf-yg1mr will haunt that family forever
Oh damn lol
Just two years later and he wins his UFC DEBUT!
You idiot. They put him against a non grappler. Easy work
@@Foralluhaterz how is he an idiot?
@@adambonilla907 it was an easy first fight because they always put grapplers against strikers
@@Foralluhaterz you do realize you could easily say the same the other way around right? lmao. He is not a striker but went up against a striker... so your point is invalid IDIOT.
and he still has no stand-up game after 5 years of focussing on mma
All this did was make me hungry for sushi
Fr made me wanna try some sushi with baked scallops on top
Albacore is full of mercury. 3 times that of yellow fin.

Im here to say your family's name will never be lost bro.
Can we just take a moment to appreciate what he said how he trains the way he trains because his body tells him that it's the right way. He's not doing it this way because he learned from a trainer or whatever this took years and dedication by listening to his body. I that is very important to people who are just starting their weight loss journeys and/or journey to healthier living. Hes not on any fixed diets he listens to his body and that took him years to accomplish, so when you're doing your own thing and its not working out dont feel discouraged or beat down just know that these things take time and lots of trial and error. And if you feel like its a lost cause please take a break and come back with a clearer point of view and always remember that your body follows your mind, so when u feel like crap ur body will feel like crap. Prioritize your mental health and your body will heal❤
But what are his results in terms of competition? Not very good, actually. That's something to consider.
@@JK-vc7ie that’s only something to consider. If you do what you do only to win, but he does what he does because his body tells him that’s what he needs to be healthy and happy so he does it. Of course winning probably means something to him but it’s not everything. It’s been a very long time since I’ve seen this one and I would need to rewatch it to properly reply but for now I’m going off of memory
@@JK-vc7ie also a big part of competitions is not just being physically strong but mentally. it doesnt matter if hes good if his mentality only gives him a short lived career, is basically what im trying to say. i suppose the validity of ur comment is determined by what he prioritizes.
@@JK-vc7ie his results are bad because he is not a good striker, he relies a lot on grappling making him a one dimensional fighter, another example of this is ryan hall.
@@Nerfzisback Yes, you obviously don't know me, but I know all of that. I follow UFC.
To know anything about this guy you need to go back to his father & grandfather. He's a carbon copy of his father. The breathing thing is something his father did. I don't understand why people on here are so obsessed with his striking. You don't have to pound someone's face in to be able to beat the shit out of them. This guy has mad skill/ technique. His dad is a legend, a master. So was his grandfather. He's undefeated so far. He deserves respect. Not only for being undefeated but for who & where he comes from. We should all be so lucky to come from such a tight knit family.
If you're gonna be an MMA fighter, you HAVE to learn to strike at least competently or you become one dimensional. If you're one dimensional in MMA, you lose. That simple.
His striking is absolute dogshit. I respect his ground game, he's obviously a one of a kind, elite grapple, but this is MMA. He needs major work on his striking fundamentals. He looks like a guy 2 weeks into boxing classes at the local rec center

Crazy how he trains and is on that type of diet . Kudos to him. He’s a beast .
What? Are uou high? Lol 😆
He is not eating cartoon.
Even so there are vegans out there boxing.
The diet doesn't HAVE ANYTHING to do with your performance.
Just turned 24, I've been living similarly for about 2 years now, the change was slow but I noticed how I would feel after every meal and found that eating highly nutritional food in smaller amounts made me feel better, I eat alot of veggies fruit and meats/ fish, I eat very little carbs as they cause me massive inflammation in my back when I work out. My key difference tho is I heavily rely on my meat/fats for calories and energy and the sugars i get usually get burned up so fast it doesn't support me for long
Kron looks like a such a cool dude, plus he cares about the world, eating good organic food, he is 2.0 human being
his lifestyle is 1/2 mma fighter, 1/2 19 year old white girl, lol.
I don't understand. ??
@@texasbeaver8188 It's just white millennial girls are into all the health trends such as pressed juices and compressed shots of ginger and things of that nature. And someone like Kron does follow this kind of lifestyle , the MMA half is self explanatory.
@@Adeshgrg Ahh yes I understand. But I think 19 is a little too young to represent a millennial that's into what you're saying
TheBardeng of course, hes a trained fighter and im a white collar professional. Doesn’t change the fact that he has the dietary habits of a girl named becky that drives a volkswagen.
@@mikeyle119 I don't know man, it does seem pretty tasty
I've been wanting to do BJJ for a long time and Kron just got to me with it. Thank you so much!
he has got some nice earphones on all the time.
looks similar to skin.
You can actually get them for free if you train bjj
where he lives, hes spending around $100 dollars a day minimum on all his food, along with CA rent man, not cheap to train like this.
he's a gracie and they have bjj gyms all over the country. he also probably trains ufc athletes as well so Im pretty sure he can cover his spending habits.
Where did he leave his backpack while he was running?
Pretty he locks it up with his bike. Either that or he left it with the camera crew hehe
I don't think he left it with the bike because someone can steal whats inside. I think he either left it with the camera crew, or does Santa Monica beach have some public lockers for the people to use? Munchies.... please..... I need answers...
Kron... Let us know....
@@natemab not if it has a proper ziplock system that many new bags now have. Add a lock to it and nothing can be stolen unless they tear the fabric.
i was waiting for the locker in mad suspense
I’m 41 and I’ve been strict pescatarian since I was 15. I’m an ex martial artist who used to compete regularly. I really don’t miss meat at all and I never crave it. Vegetarianism would be a step too far for me as I would crave fish so much.
I only eat fish also, lot's of vegetables and fruits, oats and nuts. Keeps me going.

This video and family is amazing. The love they have for their art and family is everything we need in this world. I love their philosophies and way of life. That nutrition though is on point. I would love to have a better breakdown to what he was eating in that Juice Cafe.
Kron is an ADCC world champion. One of the best grapplers in the world. But for some reason he chose to be a striker and we haven't seen him in the UFC since his loss to Cub
must be super expensive to eat the things he ate today all day
the only expensive parts were the things he got from the vegan shop and the sushi
Arnold Schwarzeniqqa No the juice was expensive too. Juice shops ain't cheap. It's like $10 and up just for a bottle of juice. Then the food he ate there was the same price.
Dave yeah thats what i meant but honestly where do you see these juice shops other than big cities.. nowhere
He's a gracie he can probably afford it.
He says there is no typical day to him, he follows his intuition. And that day Munchies showed a bunch of green notes...
Sure he don't eat like that every day. But this for show and inspiration.
Amazing video! This was the highlight of Kron’s career thus far
This guy is a fantastic role model to everyone on how to be so dedicated to your craft, seems like a really nice guy too salute to the Gracies amazing fighting family tree
But... fish is meat. Does anyone know why some people think fish or seafood isn't meat, because it's the flesh of an animal. Isn't that what meat is?
Yes, but some people actually consider fish not to be meat, do you know why?
Okay thanks
It has to do with biblical connotations and culinary connotations (which were partially shaped by the biblical ones in the west). It's why squash, tomatoes and avocados are usually grouped with veggies even though they're fruits.
I think in Japanese culture it's not considered meat because of how it's written. Usually 2 characters and in most meats (pork etc) they all have a character for 'meat' but fish doesn't. Obviously it doesn't apply to this video or western culture. He'd be considered more pescetarian
I'm catholic so I don't consider it meat

Revisiting this video year after year is insightful. Seeing how Kron and myself have evolved in many ways and also stayed consistent in others. The way he trains in this video, particular the hybrid style and the way he rolls around on the mats with dynamic movements and breath have had such an impact on the way I move and train. Thanks Kron.
