Kick Boxing Stand Bag

Can anyone point me towards what to do during training for Muay Thai?

I don’t want to train my body, I want to train my technique. Honestly, I’m clueless on how to properly do any kick or elbow or even knee Muay Thai style correctly…. (Haven’t started yet)

In order to learn proper muay thai techniques, you not only need to train your body, as it must be in top physical shape, but need proper instruction, and correction when doing the drills and sparring.

Learning muay thai through videos and not from a school would be like learning to drive without instruction, you might learn the basics, while the risk of crashing is high, and what you learn is questionable as far as quality.

Muay thai fighters train 5-6 hours a day, their abs are rock solid, and that’s why the traditional muay thai stance has your hands high, because any blows to the stomach are pretty much dismissed because your abs are rock solid. The Dutch (closest second muay thai fighters in the word), have a different stance, because of it’s kyokushin influence), still they also train their bodies just as hard as thais.

Learning how to kick, knee, elbow,punch a bag is NOT learning muay thai, you’ll never learn the muay thai clinch, and sparring is a essential part while learning muay thai, bruises are not uncommon, that’s why practitioners are tough-as-nails, neglecting this essential part of training will make your defense technique practically null, you’ll never know how to react when being kicked or punched, and believe me, it’s not the same as a punching bag.

As far as wraps and gloves, make sure you ALWAYS wrap your hands while punching the bag, and you have at least 10oz gloves when hitting it, and you need 16oz gloves for sparring, which unless you have a partner, you won’t do.

I suggest you take a muay thai class every once in a while, to learn at least the basics, then you can practice and condition at home, remember that a muay thai fighter without condition is useless, technique is worthless is you can’t last one round, you NEED to train your body. Alot of times a fighter with higher conditioning beats an opponent with better technique via out-cardio.

i hope this info was useful

good luck!
