Good job either way.
Well, the videos are designed to strengthen and condition the body in ways that are needed for mma fighting performance. If you do the videos you will understand. They condition you for both striking and grappling. They help you Improve your striking skills, and the strength and endurance you need for fighting.
Like I said the videos are not a substitute for martial arts classes but they are ideal conditioning and training for martial artists, allowing you to sustain the high intensity of energy expenditure needed for a right.
If you do the videos I am sure you will see how they prepare you for combat - balance, explosive strength, coordination, technique, stamina- all are improved in these videos.
I have take. Krav Maga and it is awesome. I want to do more. Most of my background is in judo which is an amazing martial art and I love it! I am going to finish getting my black belt in judo. I here y have a green belt. It goes white yellow green blue brown black so I'm half way there.
I used to compete in judo and I actually beat a black belt and a brown belt in competition. I won a few gold , silver and bronze metals at the provincial and Inter provincial levels.
I wish I had continued my training but it was hard to do with school. Now that I have graduated with my masters my next major life goal is to get a black belt and learn a second language.

I've never taken any Judo lessons but I've seen a few practice it. Quite impressive  I think once I'm recovered I'm going to begin scheduled Krav Maga training though, out of all the combat training/sparing I've seen it seems the most useful to me. IMO there's a reason Israel is commanding the "free world"

Krav Maga is the most practical system of self defence. Ju jitsu and Muay Thai are also great. However I won't do any striking martial art where you get hit in the head, because the science has now revealed how damaging being hit in the head is to the brain.
I want to get my black belt in judo and also take Krav Maga classes.

Yeah that's why I love hasfit you can do it in your own home whenever thou have the time, and he packs a kick ass workout into a short time. It goes fast once you start and his encouragement really helps you push yourself. Kozac is my hero.

Just browsing and your title caught my attention. I'm a freshly Certified personal trainer with Specialist in Fitness Nutrition, I didn't watch any of the vids yet since I'm currently limited to myphone, but definitely bookmarking to watch later, maybe some things I could incorporate I into my training.
*** before you continue to read I'd like to re iterate that I said freshly certified, meaning my text book knowledge is fresh, but zero practical experience besides staying in shape myself in my 26 years of existence. i am by no means a fitness guru of any kind, but I know a little bit lol.
Your nutrition is spot on. You hit all the main points, lots of veggies, lean protein, and no processed garbage. How many grams of protein are you getting in daily?
Your in great shape, and with those videos your probably well conditioned. If you want to bulk up you need to be eating 1-2 grams of protein per pound of body weight daily. Since your 180 Ish that means you should be eating 180 on light training days and maybe 250 or more on heavy training days, which leads me to my next point.
If you want bulk, you need resistance training, period. And then you need protein. Cardio is great for building up your aerobic system, and some routines (maybe like your videos?) Do involve some light to moderate resistance training to keep some balance with your anaerobic system. That will only get you so far, and I'd say your about there.
You need to dedicate some of your training schedule to solid anaerobic resistance training. If your not a gym guy just find some dumbells from maybe 10 to 40 or 50. A selective dumbell set is absolutely great for home use, its actually all I have besides perfect push ups. I have a golds gym set, my dad has power blocks, there are some others, but the two I've used I like equally.
Try and get some protein in within 30 minutes of working out. I feel like there's a few things I'm missing, but there's some basics. But I'm going to play in the snow haha. Keep up the good work.

Thanks for this great advice! I will follow all of it. Just need to invest in some heavier weights.
I need to buy some 35-40 pound dumbbells and a barbell

Long story short, hasfit program is going to hit a plateau for you soon.
If your true fitness goal is to get to 190 via lean muscle gains, you need to do it via calorie surplus and Weight Lifting.
IMO you and Wife should start a gym membership and use hasfit as a form of cardio.
