    • I havent interacted here in a while 😞 alot of family stuff going on and a huge burnout hit me as I was forced to hold pads for almost a year, and teaching people when im in no position to be teaching.   But to get to the point I just watched a video of myself hitting the bag which I havent video’d myself in forever. I noticed EVERY single kick had a jump on it, and honestly ive always had very good power and balance coming off kicks so this shocked me. I was always told my kicks were pretty as Ive tried replicating the golden kick to the best of my abilities. But ill have to record myself sparring and hitting pads to see if this repeats. Thought Id share this cause I just find it a weird habit that developed, any tips besides being conscious of it to get rid of the issue, is it an issue?
    • I had ankle issues too and found that strengthening exercises like balancing on one foot and using resistance bands helped a lot, along with proper rest and not overdoing it in training.
    • There are so many variabilities it is really hard to say. The best comparison is to Western Boxing which doesn't have a belt system. But one would imagine that within 2 years in a good gym you'd be fairly proficient.

    • Hi all, Does anyone know of any suppliers for blanks (Plain items to design and print a logo on) that are a good quality? Or put me in the right direction? thanks all  
    • The first fight between Poot Lorlek and Posai Sittiboonlert was recently uploaded to youtube. Posai is one of the earliest great Muay Khao fighters and influential to Dieselnoi, but there's very little footage of him. Poot is one of the GOATs and one of Posai's best wins, it's really cool to see how Posai's style looked against another elite fighter.
    • Yeah, this is certainly possible. Thanks! I just like the idea of a training camp pre-fight because of focus and getting more "locked in".. Do you know of any high level gyms in europe you would recommend? 
    • You could just pick a high-level gym in a European city, just live and train there for however long you want (a month?). Lots of gyms have morning and evening classes.
    • Hi, i have a general question concerning Muay-Thai training camps, are there any serious ones in Europe at all? I know there are some for kickboxing in the Netherlands, but that's not interesting to me or what i aim for. I have found some regarding Muay-Thai in google searches, but what iv'e found seem to be only "retreats" with Muay-Thai on a level compareable to fitness-boxing, yoga or mindfullness.. So what i look for, but can't seem to find anywhere, are camps similar to those in Thailand. Grueling, high-intensity workouts with trainers who have actually fought and don't just do this as a hobby/fitness regime. A place where you can actually grow, improve technique and build strength and gas-tank with high intensity, not a vacation... No hate whatsoever to those who do fitness-boxing and attend retreats like these, i just find it VERY ODD that there ain't any training camps like those in Thailand out there, or perhaps i haven't looked good enough?..  Appericiate all responses, thank you!
