JRE MMA Show #10 with Tyron Woodley

Doo-doo-doo.
And we're live.
We're live with the champ.
We're live.
We're live with the champ.
What's up, man?
How are you?
I'm chilling, man.
How you doing, brother?
You look better than anybody I've ever seen just a couple weeks out of shoulder
surgery.
I'm a savage, man.
You're walking around like there's nothing going on.
They took my savage stem cells out of my own damn back, and they threw them in
my shoulder.
Out of your back?
The hip bone, whatever the fuck.
Bone marrow, they got in there, centrifuge, spun them, shot them into my
shoulder.
I should have a sling on, but I'm out Tuesday anyway, so I kind of prematurely
decided to come out of the sling.
Oh, so you're supposed to be out of the sling in six days?
Yeah.
No, no.
Is that six days?
Five days?
Whatever Tuesday is it.
Five days.
Yeah, five days.
Four or five days, yeah.
Wow.
So my guy's really aggressive.
I went to Dr. Andrews.
He's out there in Pensacola, and he said, no, we need you back punching in two
months.
So the day after surgery, yeah.
Hard?
The day after surgery, he said making contact.
So two months, I mean, right after surgery, I was doing two-a-days, fucking
full-ass rehab.
Really?
Yeah, like crazy.
So I'm like, these dudes is nuts.
This shoulder, I had this done in 08.
I didn't move for like three weeks.
What'd you have done with that one?
Same thing, labrum.
Now, are you hurting this in training?
Are you hurting it in fights?
A lot of, well, people don't know about me.
They think I just throw my right hand a lot.
But I wasn't never really confident with my left hand because I had that left
labrum tear.
So it felt weird to throw hooks, and it felt weird to use my jab a lot, my
shoulder fatigue a lot.
So I didn't tell a lot of people that, so I just started bombing like hell with
my right hand.
It wasn't because I was just so right-hand heavy.
So now that I had the surgery on this one, I'm going to stem cell both
shoulders, rehab the crap out of it,
and also bought this rehab machine called the ArtWave.
You ever heard of it, like a Russian stem?
It's like nuts.
No, what is it?
It's like a Russian stem machine that has the ability to make your muscles
contract 500 times a second in its highest setting.
So a lot of people use it.
The Colts use it.
A lot of pro athletes use it.
The people that made it in Minnesota, they don't give a lot of information
because they don't want their intellectual property stolen.
But they charge you like 12 to 14 grand for the machine.
Then they charge you 5 grand to show you how to use it.
Then if you really, really want to know how to use it, they charge you as
another 5 grand.
So I was lucky enough.
I hope they ain't watching this yet.
I was lucky enough to get one from my homie Mark Clayton.
They used to play with the Rams.
I just bought his from him.
And so what is it called again?
It's called an ArtWave.
ArtWave?
A-R-P.
A-R-P Wave.
I think that stands for Advanced Recovery Program.
Advanced Recovery Program.
So basically if you think about scar tissue, soft tissue, it has ability.
It's not like that stem that feels like the needle poking, but it's like
intense stem that goes through.
It can break that fucking scar tissue up, go through soft tissue and basically
increase blood flow, range of motion.
So spraying ankles in one session, that should be healed.
Really?
Yeah.
I've used it hundreds and hundreds of times.
I just didn't have the money to buy it until recently.
Wow.
I've been using it since college.
And so now you put this on your shoulder.
Well, you put it on your shoulder and they have like this posture.
So you hold this posture to this position, right?
And then they also do a balance test first because if your back is fucked up,
your knee, and your balance is off, then neurologically it's not going to
actually send the current to the right spot.
So maybe it's your lower back.
So maybe it's your lower back and your shoes are fucked up.
So now your shoes are messed up.
So it'll make your lower back hurt.
You know how to balance test.
Right.
So they do that first, adjust you, make sure you all balance out.
Then they find what they call a hot spot.
So they put it at a neutral site, the black pad, which is like your lower back
or something.
Then wherever you're feeling the pain, if I'm feeling it right here, the pain
might not be coming from there.
So they might, they search around and whoo, this shit jump out.
So now this becomes a hot spot.
So now that I take the other pad off and find the spot that when those two
connect, you feel like you're about to die.
Then they wrap you up and then they do seven minutes on reverse, seven minutes
on positive.
And then it's painful as shit.
But like I've done training camps, had some severe injuries and nobody would
ever know.
Really?
Yeah, it's crazy.
So like, so you're saying that like, if you have something that's bothering you,
a lot of times there's something that's wrong somewhere else that's causing
that to be bothering you.
Yeah.
And this somehow or another finds that?
No, you, you balance, you do a balance test first.
So say like a chiropractor comes in and he say, oh, your hips off, your legs
longer.
He adjusts you.
You have to be adjusted and balanced first.
Then they put the pads on there and they locate what they call a hot spot.
So say my shoulder, right?
For some reason, I broke my wrist a long time ago.
So I can't do like that.
You can't push down on things?
Yeah.
So you see how I can't get my hand to bend?
Oh.
So if you get down to push-up time, I'm going like this because my wrist just
doesn't bend.
With knuckles.
Right.
So when I'm throwing a punch, especially if I'm throwing just a crazy-ass punch,
you can imagine that if I don't distribute the force properly, that shit's, my
forearm's going to be sore.
Probably what's caused my shoulder pain.
Also being extended position in wrestling, extending stretched out over time
and time, it caused a shock.
Now, just that one punch I hit Damian Meyer with, maybe that wasn't a punch.
That might have been the last damn straw that broke the camel back.
But I think wearing Tara from all those different years just beat my shoulder
up.
So you, oh, so what's this guy doing here?
Before and after, best kind of version I think I could find of a good video.
Yeah, range of motion-wise, it's actually deceiving because sometimes you'll
fucking get zapped on this deal, and you couldn't bring your arm up at all, and
then all of a sudden now you're like, oh, shit, I'm healed.
But you're not really healed.
You've got to continue to do the protocol, continue to do the treatment, and
work on that range of motion.
If you do it one time and you feel great, go out there and start shooting threes,
your shit's going to be fucked up.
Yeah, so.
So in the Damian Meyer fight, you hurt your shoulder with one of the first
punches you threw, right?
I was, I knew it happened because I knew it, I knew it's what they call subplex
or dislocated, whatever.
So I threw, I saw it opening, had already lumped his eye up.
I'm like, oh, I'm going to try to fuck that side of his face up.
So I saw his left eyeball already almost closed.
So I said, I'm going to try to go ham on him.
Bow, I threw the punch, and I felt my shoulder go down.
And I'm like, oh, shit.
So then I was like, I can't lose a fight.
I can't let the dude take my belt.
So at this point, I said, I'm going to throw straight punches.
And reaction, and I see my power punch, I'm going to throw it.
So a couple times, I forgot, and I threw it, and it kind of went out again.
And he took some shots, and I lift him up, and it kind of went out again.
So three or four times in a fight, I can feel it just go, like a whole, like
five or six light bulbs just crushing in your shoulder.
You kind of feel it going.
But I had that pain before, and I mean, it sounds stupid.
I'm blessed that I tore this one because I know what it felt like.
Right.
And I know that the only pain that I'm going to feel is when I extend, when I
try to go that direction, or any overhand right, that shit was going to be a
wrap.
So when I stayed here, I just threw straight punches.
And there was a couple times I blitzed forward, and I wanted to punch, and I
didn't punch because I didn't feel confident with my hand.
Hmm, so you knew something was wrong, but you just didn't know exactly what it
was.
I knew it's subplexed, or I knew it dislocated for sure.
Whether the ligament was torn or not, I was praying that it wasn't.
Because you can actually do that, slip it out without it tearing.
But most times when you do that, it's a result of these muscles fatiguing, you
punching too hard, making contact with your target, and then your whole muscles
just go, you just kind of feel like, the best way I can explain it, everything
just kind of fell down.
So you tried to rehab it for a while, right?
Yeah.
What did you try to do?
Man, I did.
I did the ARP treatment.
I did regular physical therapy.
I mean...
You got an MRI?
MRI.
I got two MRIs.
I had one doctor tell me that, you know, I didn't have to do it.
I could.
One doctor can care less.
And then finally I went to Dr. Andrews, and he was like, you know what, how
long do you plan on fighting for?
And I hate when people ask me this.
Right.
I'm like, until I get tired of fighting.
And he was like, well, if you think you're going to be done fighting, then don't
get it done.
But if you want to have a career and you want to be able to confidently punch,
he said, I watched your video.
He said, you make your money with your right hand.
He said, if you want to go out there and punch and be confident, let me go in
there.
Let me clean it out.
Let me anchor it down.
We'll shoot some stem cells, some PRP in there on the way out of the surgery.
We'll be aggressive.
We'll make sure you get that range of motion, and you'll be back in there
punching.
So I decided that my ass fought four times, four World Titan fights in a year.
If anybody deserved to touch up something they hurt in the fight, it's me.
So I decided to go with it.
I was so close, man.
Even all the way up until the day of surgery, I was like, man, I don't want to
fucking do this.
I don't want to do this.
I just don't want to be down.
Now, were you still training?
Were you still throwing punches?
Yeah, I was training.
And what did it feel like when you were throwing punches?
I mean, that's the reason why I got it.
I mean, uppercuts, straight punches.
If I throw a straight punch and I didn't turn my body over and I was just arm
punching, shit would hurt.
If I throw uppercut, it didn't hurt.
I was shadowboxing, hitting pads, hitting the bag.
If I throw overhand right, it was not going to happen.
Shoulders are such a weird joint.
There's so much motion.
Even now, like you're doing a rehab now, part of my protocol is with dumbbells.
I can light shadow box.
But if I come out here, I mean, you can just even see the way my body's
starting to get alarmed.
I don't feel comfortable yet.
But you're only how many days out of surgery?
Two weeks.
Two weeks is nothing.
Nothing, yeah.
It's amazing that you can move it that much.
I'll be back training in a couple months.
Wow.
Yeah.
Well, with this ARP machine and then with stem cells and PRP, it's like the
world's a different place now for injury rehab.
I did my own shit in 2008.
So I'll tell you, and I rehabbed myself.
I took a rehab book.
I had all these protocols from these sports medicine people that gave me, and I
put my own shit together, and I made my own workout.
And I did it religiously twice a day, but it's not the same as somebody
stretching you every single degrees, every direction, every plane, watching
your growth, and actually being a specialist.
I was just doing shit because I didn't want my shoulder messed up, and I had
just started fighting.
Like, when I first started, I was a wrestling coach for Tiago Alves, Eve
Edwards, Dean Thomas.
I wasn't really a fighter fighter.
I had a couple amateur fights, but I didn't know if I wanted to do this shi
