Recommendation for training in Hong Kong
Tom Riddle replied to Barbara_K's topic in Gym Advice and Experiences
There are many gyms in Hong Kong that can provide you private sessions. You can check out: https://www.onepersonaltraininghk.com/ http://www.sitpinyo.com/ Also at the mean time, you can also find some Muay Thai Blogs, that would also help you in your training, like: https://www.muay-thai-guy.com/blog/ https://www.muaythaicitizen.com/best-muay-thai-blogs/ https://evolve-mma.com/blog/category/muay-thai/ https://www.elitesports.com/blogs/news/tagged/muay-thai -
It is recommended that you should rest 1 month approximately, after having an eye surgery. I know that you are very very keen about your training. That's the best spirit in you. But at this time I recommend you to rest at least 1 month and if you fear that you may not forget Boxing, I recommend you 2 read books and blogs about Boxing. That'll help you keep in touch with Boxing.

Slow down your workout or Muay Thai training if you're working out in high temperature. After that you can slowly enhance your workout. The body takes at least 2 weeks to acclimate the heat. So, slowly enhance your workout up to full workout. There are some days in the summer when there's so much heat and you're unable to workout outside. So you should do workout in the early part of the day or in the evening when it's little cooler outside. You should stay hydrated during workout. This would help you sweat more and better. Also your blood level would remain normal, if you drink water throughout your workout. This would help you beat the heat during summer.

Make a lesson or program exclusively for women. Fear of judgment is the main deterrent for women from using the gym. You can create a welcoming group of women who welcome new members with positive energy by providing a women's class. I hope you choose to put all of these suggestions into action, but at the very least, consider the needs of the women who frequent your gym and do your best to accommodate them by fostering an environment that is upbeat and encouraging so they can concentrate on feeling strong.

Kicking speed
Tom Riddle replied to Jim's topic in Muay Thai Technique, Training and Fighting Questions
One of the simplest ways to increase the pace of your kicks is to use ankle weights. They also increase the potency of your kicks. The benefits of using ankle weights during Muay Thai training are minimal. You just do any kicking drill you choose while wearing the weights around your legs. Your kicking strength and quickness can be increased even by shadowboxing with ankle weights. Your legs get heavier as a result of the ankle weight, so you must use more force to move at your usual speed. When you remove the ankle weights after being accustomed to throwing kicks while carrying that extra weight, your kicks will go much more quickly. -
Muay Khao fighters depend on their knees to do most of the damage. While not all Muay Khao fighters have full control over their middles or elbows, all are knee specialists. A good Muay Khao fighter uses his knees not only to attack but to counter as well. Yodwicha is a perfect example of a high-level Muay Khao fighter who was good at grinding his rivals with his knees. Some of the most entertaining fights happen when Muay Khao fighters are faced by Muay Mat. This is because punchers love to catch knee fighters with their hands down.

I'm at the same point!! i was recently reading a blog, and that was very helpful about the sparring. Francis Ngannou's viral video appeared in that blog and I noticed how beautifully Francis picked every move of his opponent, I think you should watch that video also, you can learn many things about your topic!!

Gym recommendation technique and teaching
Tom Riddle replied to TRTdoc's topic in Gym Advice and Experiences
There are many Gyms I can recommend you right now, recently i was reading a blog and got to see the best gyms in Thailand, Here's the list of Muay Thai Gyms!! -
When I compare the difficulty of different combat sports, I usually do so from the standpoint of competition. Beginners, on the other hand, may have a very different experience. Cardio kickboxing classes, for example, differ significantly from traditional kickboxing sessions in that they combine a fast-paced cardio workout with kickboxing techniques. Their mission is to assist people lose weight or be in better condition by engaging them in activities that are more enjoyable than a typical fitness facility routine. Full contact sparring is not used, and the emphasis is on endurance rather than technique. In traditional kickboxing classes, technique accounts for 70-80% of the training (drills; sparring) and 20-30% of the conditioning (rope jumping, push-ups; running, etc). Because conditioning is the main focus of the workouts in cardio-kickboxing courses, that ratio is roughly 50/50 or even 60 percent conditioning. So, in terms of endurance, cardio, and other factors, cardio kickboxing workouts can be more difficult when you are just getting started. However, traditional kickboxing programs demand a lot of skill, which can be difficult to acquire, especially if you don't have any experience with other striking martial arts. Your fists will feel strange, your kicks will feel weak and slow, and you won't be able to throw high kicks at first, and even when you kick, your shins will hurt. That is, however, entirely typical. Before you can start punching and kicking correctly, you'll need hours of shadowboxing and heavy bag work. Sparring is another difficult component of your kickboxing workout.

Internal and external arts
Tom Riddle replied to nvinson85's topic in Muay Thai Technique, Training and Fighting Questions
Thanks, that was very helpful!! -
First focus on mental Drill. Mental practice is the mental stimulation of a movement without the occurrence of the physical ability. To put it another way, it's the mental rehearsal of a skill or a group of techniques. Most BJJers have had BJJ daydreams or may even conduct mental drilling while sleeping. "According to neuromuscular theory, visualization activates the same motor pathways as if the skill were physically done, albeit at a lower level." Use the best gi's like venum, Fuji, Elite for your inner satisfaction. This activation, which is equivalent to actual movement but at a lesser level, has been demonstrated in studies utilizing EMG equipment." Mental drilling has one advantage that I like: it can be done almost anywhere and at any time. You are not bound by space or geographical place. You also don't have to worry about injuries or weariness with mental drills. This is especially useful if you're recovering from an injury and can't physically train. It's just you and your thoughts with mental drilling!

Any good Muay Thai gyms in Singapore?
Tom Riddle replied to dazzleanddie's topic in Gym Advice and Experiences
Matrix MMA Gym also is a better choice!! -
Mouthguards and groin protection are worn by Lethwei practitioners. During competition, however, they merely use tape and gauze to cover their hands instead of gloves. Athletes can win a bout by using Styles like headbutts, punches, elbows, knees, kicks, clinching, sweeps, and throws across three to five rounds.
