Connor McGregor's famous training clip.

You can feel his interest in versatile movement.

I had the opportunity to learn from Ido Portal & his Team during the years he worked with the Notorious.

Here I show you some of the moves Connor does.🧵
I. Lizard Crawl 00:00

A well known "Animal Flow" practice.

This one was long associated as kind of a signature move of Ido Portal.

It has many variations.

You see Connor do a very basic one.

You can use my thread from yesterday to learn it.
II. Arm Deload (Kidney Brushes) 00:08

This move had a lot of Meme Potential.

People still have a good laugh at it today.

You can use it for deloading the arms after a heavy strength session.

I show also a variation where you have the arms partly behind your back.

So if they are not loose you will hit your kidneys.
