During a sparring session in december i got knee'd in the ribs and had to stop training for a few weeks. Doctor said i could train based on the pain itself and gave me a bunch of painkillers and requested a tomography, i never did it since i had to travel about 100 miles to nearest spot, eventually the pain gradually went away and early january i'm back in business. I was also lucky that the event was rescheduled to the end of february.
These two comments gave me genuine peace of mind, I'm managing to behave better in sparring sessions. Thank you so much Kevin, a while back you did a post about Dio Chrysostom and being introduced to his writings, I can't put into words how much I appreciate it.
I live in a small city with limited access to muay thai knowledge, my coach is actually a former partner, he is 2-0 semi pro bouts. He doesn't have extensive knowledge because he doesn't speak english, have less than 3 years of practice and mostly reproduce stuff.. he's started to improve and try new things after our former coach left.
Saturday is sparring focused and heavy sessions, 2 hours, only for athletes.
THU/TUE we have a class composed by me, two other guys and a kid, it's different training but one coach only. I'll provide my last sparring session here. I'm feeling better now and adjusting my routine.
I'm the guy with yellow hair. Maybe i'm asking too much here about opinions on my technique/form? Thank you all for the replies.
