This man gave us 21 minutes of exposition to tell us that he ordered himself a nice 7 layer burrito, added steak, and enjoyed it.

Chael got me to start saying “Okay,Great.” At the most random times !

Chael doesn't get training camps because his whole life is a training camp. Elite philosophy that has made him the GOAT.

Coming home at 2:30 in the night and see a 22 minutes video from Chael P. Sonnen. Sleep can wait. Thanks for spoilng us with your content.

Charl just admitted to living in a tent. The streets are really tough out in West Linn

The fact that Chael has a really good relationship with his Step-dad is super wholesome because that’s usually not the case.

I'm pulling for you. Good luck with everything coming up!

as a fighter having his first kickboxing fight tomorrow this helped me infinitely.

There’s just something about Chael that I love to hear this guy talk.

"Sometimes it's an Owie" - Chael P. Sonnen

Chael doesn’t use training camp. Chael trains camps!

Quite a few intangibles, moving parts and offers to be made in this video - I even see how Kevin Lee actually fits in to this. Okay, great.

"As soon as you ever hear an athlete of any sport say these words: 'Train smarter not harder' never bet on him again." > Proceeds to explain how he trains smarter, not harder

Tito tapped!!!!!!!

Killer podcast with great longevity and conditioning tips for not just fighters, but for anyone who is disciplined with their own conditioning and strives for feeling good and being in good shape---Excellent insight/advice in many ways Mr SONNEN. I really respect your honesty with your thoughts on your opponents, current and past.

West Linn Oregon was the only reason America won its Independence.

I always thought if you were a fighter you lived the life style? 24/7 you stayed in shape. Randy made alot of sense.

Oh God, I really needed this Chael. Thanks so much.

This was really good to hear. I'm 32 and about to take my first fight. This gives me hope that I'll still have ten years of competition ahead of me still 👍

So basically what Chael's saying is he's training smarter & not harder... got it lol

Congrats on 300k subscribers Chael, you've certainly earned it. Great content as always, I can listen to you talk about anything.

But where does Giardono's fit into this? Uncle Chael we still waiting for that trilogy deep dish bout.

Words of wisdom as always... and not just for fighters, for anyone and for whatever it is you do! 🤙🏻🙏🏻🧙🏻‍♂️

Genius! Masterful. Eight layers of storytelling from the great one, Chael P.

Chael says I'm getting a 7 layer burito, guess I'm getting a 7 layer burito then.

That stem cell treatment finally coming through maybe!? Always been waiting for an update about that.

Always good looking back on the classics, please never change Chael

Hell yeah ... I remember fights on Friday nights. I’m that old!!

Burritos sound awesome! Thanks Chael Sonnen! Very motivating!

Every Chael video is a blessing

Most honest man in the sport. LOVE these insights.

Great piece Chael and u looking much fresher today

Good luck Chael!!

just cooked dinner for the family while listening to this, Thanks so much chael.

Uncle chael is the gift that keeps giving.

Chael is the goat, change my mind

Appreciate the honesty!

Chael, the one guy who likes crossfit, and doesn't spend every second talking about it.💪

This video could be easily underrated but God damn chael is good at explaining himself and his perspective with great reasoning

Chael, you got this. Keep up the hard work, and go win this fight. I don't think I can live I a world where you aren't undefeated.

The fact that CHAEL P. is remixing the TACO BELL Menu. You're the greatest. Fan from Day 1.

Love this man!!!

All these uploads lately, I’m rock solid

Good win Chael !

Brooooo hope you kick ass this coming event !

Great Video. Enjoyed the 20 plus mins. 👍👍👍

Great Stories Chael. Keem em coming.

Don’t need a training camp when you have the meanest power double in MMA

Such a natural, you should give out motivational recordings whether you want to good things or bad things. You're so in between it ain't funny, but it's so great Mr. Sonnen.

Chael is the freaking man! I’ll be honest I was new to mma when he was first facing Silva but he immediately became my favorite entertainer and my second favorite stylistic fighter behind Machida only because I wrestled in high school and gained mad respect for anyone who can stop that level of wrestling

A 20 minute set up for a 2 minute story. If anyone else did that, I'd be pissed, but because it's Chael, it made the video that much better!

More interesting than most of your videos because you give inside knowledge I didn't know, like that lots of the fighters mostly only train for specific fights. Not sure it's 100% true but it's really interesting and I know it must be partly true. Thank you.

You need a big win chael. Machida is going to be tough.

Great insight Uncle Chael

Ima grown ass man! Lol! Probably my favorite statement

I'll never forget when Chael mauled Wanderlei, I've never been so pumped when he raised his hand in victory. My favorite fight and textbook Old Chael where he just kicks your ass and makes you look foolish. G.O.A.T.

this dude is one entertaining fella.... for his career and all the hits to the head he is remarkably lucid and pithy.

Good luck in the upcoming contest Chael

Chael for President!!!

coming back to here man,chael aged in these 2 years

This guy is amazing.

I love that chael is as open as he is “I had some goodies to take care of that, there was some new rules, they got rid of that” I’m paraphrasing but it’s refreshing to hear someone be honest and I know chael obviously has been that way about peds for a good long while now but still

Randy is hands down my favorite fighter of all time. And the older I get the more I stand in awe at his dedication and accomplishments What I love about Chael is he's real . Dramatic when he's selling a fight Absolutely love that side. But he can talk about donating 50 grand like its nothing. Then he will talk about taco bell and 7 layered burritos 😆

“First train smarter, then train harder.” ^^ My take on that old catchphrase.

Going to get me and eight layer!! Thanks Chael

Lets hope you get out of the cage a winner and a healthy man good luck and god bless

Hell yeah. Feels great.

The hardest part about watching 1 Chael video is it takes 7 more videos to finish it.

Officially my Favorite Chael P segment of all time

"Confidence has never served me"..... Chael P. Sonnen Uncle Chael.... you are ignorantly solemn and I dig it.

I will thank you now Chael Sonnen. Thank you.

Chael is training smarter AND harder!

Chael you're the man buddy.

I miss "Calmly Parked in Front of the Apocalypse Chael"

Legendary insight

Uncle Chael is great with semantics.

Best most descriptive voice in all of sports.

That ending was amazing

I hate the internet sometimes but I really like videos like this where we get to see the true person it helps us see them as real people and not just a celebrity, asshole etc

Love these takes by Chael. You don't have to get ready when you STAY READY.🤘✌👍🤘😬

This is the inside track on what it take's to keep in shape at a high level, you live you learn .I know Chael trained with GSP and he has a different philosophy which works for him but different people different motivation .This is interesting good move coming down in weight, Chael isn't a heavyweight ,great to hear how training is going .

By the Taco Bell I couldn’t focus on a pool shot to stay down that well. After a week of strict diet, you’ve helped me understand where my focus wanes now. Thanks. Also cardio. And 45 minute workouts.

300K subs congrats tonTheRichWhiteBoyGangster. 🤼‍♂️

I think this whole 22 minute video was Chael's way of feeling justified to eat taco bell using his audience. You don't need anyone's permission. You'll always be our champ!

I love the moral of the story at the end 👌🏻

I'm really looking forward to the Machida fight, beating him would be a huge feather in your crap

Love your thoughts

this episode reminds me of the good ol days before chael had sponsors... 🥰

8 LAYER BURRITO UNCLE CHAEL!!! He's reached his Final Form!!!

Congrats on 300k subs buddy...

It's the same as GSP. He'd always be in the gym working out. Granted he has retired earlier on but GSP managed to be so great for so long because of his smarter approach

Great insight from chael as always . It really makes you think that weight cutting in camp for some guys is too the point where they forget why they lose weight for fights. To my knowledge no mma fighter has ever been forced to wear boxing gloves in the cage yet when moving up weight class it seems lots of fighters are forgetting the benefits of boxing glove and weighted vest.

Thats so true about exaustion. I always wanted to be more train up then the other guy in wrestling practice.

best video ever made

Haha! I've said it a thousand times, I could listen to this guy all day. Amazing to find out Chael likes taco bell, I thought only stoners ate that haha! I was there today funny enough I like the taco & crunch wrap supreme, but I will definitely be trying the seven layer with steak next time. Chael just gave taco bell a huge plug. On another note, Machida is certainly a huge threat. I'm a big fan of both of you guys, I'd been doing Judo for years & remember when Machida first came to the UFC. I was amazed, up to that point the sport was dominated by wrestlers, kickboxers & bjj guys. You hardly ever saw Karate guys excel in MMA, but there he was, winning fights with Karate. I was blown away & extremely curious, so I took up Shotokan just to have an idea of how it works. Man let me tell you, the timing is strange, the foot work is strange, the stance is strange but after four months I felt like I was starting to understand it. So I'm sparring at the tapout gym in DTLA & I decide to try some of this Shotokan I've been learning. I was giving dudes black eyes & putting them on their asses with one shot! This is important, in Shotokan style competitions one shot means victory. It's a bare knuckle style of fighting with heavy emphasis on evading until there is one crucial exchange where there is one Victor in one shot. Machida will circle around the cage, keep his hands low & immediately lunge forward with a straight punch. If you chase him he will come with a front kick. Shotokan is a linear style, keep your guard up, defense will be your best offense. Make this fight ugly, pressure all the way, to win you will need to out wrestle him. Decision will be a more likely road to victory, but ground & pound is certainly an option. Good luck Chael!

I enjoyed this.

I will try this thanks. Uncle

I totally agree that training consistently and staying near 'fight condition' all year long, will prevent a lot of 'wear and tear' from getting out of shape and back into shape repeatedly. Then, the training period for a fight will be focused primarily on fight strategy and technique as opposed to having to concentrate on cutting weight.

Chael what you just explained is the phrase "work smarter not harder."

I turned down being on the ultimate fighter because it was a summer camp basically and was never, ever signed to UFC. Undefeated heavyweight right here. Del Ray Florida. Sign the liability.
