Andrew Tate's fight training video goes viral

In Andrew Tate's recent post update, he shared a video demonstrating a training session focused on handling shoulder jabs in physical confrontations.

In the video, Tate provides advice on defensive tactics, emphasizing a unique strategy for countering jabs from opponents. Rather than the common reaction of moving backward when jabbed, Tate recommends a different approach.

During the training, Tate explains, “Most people when you try and jab them, they go back when these jabs my shoulder, you twist, you twist and twist forward because now look, what can he hit me with nothing?”

Further, he suggested that when facing a jab, one should pivot or twist the shoulder, moving forward instead of backward. This strategic movement aims to reduce the effectiveness of the opponent's jab by minimizing the target area.

Tate advocated for a proactive defensive strategy, emphasizing strategic body movement to mitigate the impact of incoming jabs. In conclusion, he states, "You were watching how most people, when you try to jab them, they go back when he jabs my shoulder, you twist, you twist, you twist."

This post aligned with Tate's broader message about fighting being a mentally demanding activity that requires strategic thinking. He encouraged the idea that proficiency in combat sports contributes to personal development, making individuals better overall. 

The tweet reads, “Fighting is a thinking man's game. The idea fighters are big and dumb is purported by weak men in an attempt to disguise their inferiority. Fighters see faster, move faster and think faster. Become a better man, learn how to fight."
