Abstract: We derive five-dimensional super Yang-Mills theory from mass-deformed ABJM theory by expanding about $S^2$ for large Chern-Simons level $K$. We obtain the Yang-Mills coupling constant $g_{YM}^2=4p{i}^{2}R/K$. If we consider $S^3/mb{Z}_K$ as a fiber bundle over $S^2$ then $R/K$ is the circumference of the fiber. The value on the coupling constant agrees with what one gets by compactifying M five-brane on that fiber. For this computation we take $R,Koinfty$ while keeping $R/K$ at a fixed finite value. We also study mass deformed star-three-product BLG theory at K=1 and $Roinfty$. In that limit we obtain Lorentz covariant supersymmetry variations and gauge variations of a non-Abelian tensor multiplet.
