Things I like #2

 Ido Portal 

The guy I'm bout to talk about is someone that I have been following for quite some time now. I came across his work when I was watching Connor Mcgregor videos...

Ido's work is all focused on the movement of the human body.
He has no in-particular sport or activity that he takes part in as he has travelled the world meeting different people who use the human body movement differently such as Ballet dancers or gymnastics to acrobats even to professional Mixed martial artists as the likes of Connor Mcgregor.

 

I personally consider these two men to be at this time some of he most interesting people on the planet right now working together defying the odds. Even if Connor didn't beat Floyd Mayweather on August 26th 2017 he still shocked the world considering he was an MMA fighter in a boxing match against arguably the greatest boxer of all time landing more punches than Manny Pacquiao. 

In my opinion I think that Ido a huge part to play in it with his movement training. 

 

   Ido's work is so unique however it makes so much sense as to why he does it and when you've been watching him for the past couple years you begin to think why everyone isn't following his work.
His idea is to fully unlock the human body as in to allow it to move and react in whatever way he chooses through muscle memory.

In terms of the sports wear that he chooses to wear when he first trainer with Connor he would wear Reebok as Connor had a sponsorship with them at the time, however more recently he has just been wearing everyday clothing e.g. t-shirt and cargo shorts. This makes me wonder if he has moved away from the idea that his practice is a sport but rather a way of life, so he doesn't feel like he needs specialist equipment to help him perfect his art.
