Joe Rogan is one of the few names that is automatically linked with the UFC. The comedian, podcaster, and longtime UFC commentator proved he’s still got it at 56 years old. A recent video making the rounds online shows Rogan absolutely teeing off on a heavy bag during an intense workout session.
The clip is short but impactful, just like Joe Rogan‘s powerful combos with punches and kicks. He displayed great hand speed and form that many younger athletes would envy. His trademark ‘gunshot’ kicks were also on display. The heavy bag swayed from the impact, a testament to the power that Joe Rogan still possesses.
It may look like a fit older guy beating up a punching bag to the casual viewer. But real fight fans know better. This is the technique of someone who has dedicated years to training in various martial arts disciplines. Rogan is a well-documented Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu practitioner under the legendary Jean Jacques Machado and is trained in Taekwondo.
The video serves as yet another reminder that the podcaster puts his money where his mouth is. Rogan is well-known for espousing the benefits of healthy living through diet and exercise on his wildly popular Joe Rogan Experience. Clearly, the man practices what he preaches. At an age when most people are slowing down, Joe Rogan is still operating at peak performance levels.
It wasn’t long before the combat sports world went wild when footage of Joe Rogan’s latest gym session hit the internet. The 56-year-old podcaster and UFC commentator displayed a ferocious heavy bag battering that had fans in awe of his enduring power and technique.

I’m kind of surprised Joe hasn’t decided to step in the ring with someone. I guess he doesn’t need the money….but definitely there would be a buzz to see Joe Rogan actually fight someone. His mobility for age 58 looks a lot better than Mike Tyson’s tbh.
