LOL! i love how everyone's wondering how big or heavy that big is, haha! it's pretty big but considering i'm only 5'5", i guess it's not THAT big.
yep! i do breathe in between strikes.
bleedingxhearts2 - depending on the situation, i do place my leg in the "opposite stance" after a kick if i intend on following it up w/ a kick w/ the opposite leg. otherwise, i bring it all the way back as i always want to be in my southpaw stance. i don't know if that makes sense...lol, sorry!
ImperialDecree - my hands are ok after use. i usually do 15 rounds x 3 min (1 min rest) and my hands are fine after. maybe it's just the way you wrap your knuckles? if you're wrapping your knuckles correctly, maybe you just need to condition your hands. how long have you been training for? there are some instances when ithe skin peels off my knuckles but that only happens when i do 20+ rounds. goodluck!
igotcookiesbah - you're absolutely correct. i find that my boxing is the weakest part of my game. i'm actually forcing myself to just box when sparring but i always end up using my legs, lol.
noobtube1210 - haha, yeah...they're definitely big on me but i love them. i've got 3 pairs of twins gloves, lol!
Pimpjit85 - yep! it's definitely BDB! haha good ole days when we only had one bag. there are 12 bags now, i believe. you should train here again!
I also have 16oz twin gloves like you and I use them on the bag I have at home.
How are your hands after use? They fit well on me but my knuckles hurt after little usage with them on the bag! I even properly wrap my hands and put enough layering around my knuckle area with my wraps and THEY STILL HURT MY KNUCKLES!
Hmmm this looks like BDB! I haven't been there for yearsss.. and they only used to have one bag lol. Still was awesome gym though. If it is BDB hope Brian is doing well and Nick is still killin it!! Oh and good bag work :)
youtube is a great tool so i would check out each gym and compare it with some youtube members' videos. better yet, search up "ramom dekkers", "rob kaman", "ernesto hoost", "nieky holzken" and see if their technique is similar to the gyms' techniques. i'm biased, though, as i favor the dutch style of muay thai over the thai's, hehehe. if you prefer the thai style, search up "buakaw", "yodsaenklai", "saenchai", etc. goodluck and i apologize if i can't give any more tips!
ladelama16 - the best way as you probably already know is just to research the available gyms around your area. once you've found some, drop by and see if you can do a trial period. most gyms should offer the first class (or more) as the trial period. you obviously won't get the full experience from one class but it should give you an idea on how they teach each class.
Just wanted to say I think your shots are crisp and powerful! good rhythm in combos and finish each shot. I read below that you took up MT when you were 20... Well i'm 27!! Nice video hope to see more! I've been training seriously for about 7months. Feel free to check out my channel. If you have any pointers/comments, I'd totally appreciate it. Wai.
I rsix8 how do i find a good muay thai gym. I have done mma for a while now and my classes are like supposedly muay thai and american kickboxing but i really dont learn traditional muay thai like the round kicks arent the same as yours they are more like tkd round kicks and i really want to actually train under legit muay thai person i live in seattle can you help me out
Mannypacquai0 - yeah, i've definitely felt the improvements over the years. i've been training for just about 5 yrs now and i can't believe i've lived 20 yrs before taking up muay thai. i wish i had taken it as a kid, lol.
acamamm - thousands and thousands of reps, man. you've just gotta put your time in the gym. as long as you've got a good foundation and correct instructions, just put your hours in and you should be ok.
@rsxlr8 what a classic song lol beat it, and you were definitly beating it, man over time have you ever felt insane changes like in your power and speed, and how your limbs adjust to the striking?
Tactichef - sorry but i don't know how heavy the bag is.
tsjca213 - i sometimes hit the bag with my foot...but that's because i have short legs, lol! hitting with the shins is the correct way, of course. the rotation of the hip is where the power comes from.
madapina - you're right! you shouldn't cross your legs! i've crossed my legs on several occassions in this video and i try correcting it whenever i find myself doing it. awesome observation and thanks for the compliment!
i dont know about your training methods but legendary fighter told us never jump or put your legs together or cross them when you thai boxing! sorry my english it not so good and you train good and hard!
i remember watching this video a year ago before i ever started muay thai. i was inpsired by this video and i wanted to be able to move and kick just like this. ive been training ever since and im not far off!!
thanks, man. i owe pretty much all i know to my coach, nick ring. it's truly unfortunate that his knee got busted up because he was definitely the best guy on TUF:11. too bad he didn't get to showcase his real skills.
this is good bagwork! not 100% power like all the others u think about teqniuqe nice mate! u use it as a tool to improve teqniuqe not just punching it like a fool, nice!
Yo Nelson, this is Muhammad. I train at BDB as well man. I haven't gone in a month though, caught a nasty virus and was sick. Hopefully Ill be back training this week or the next. Great bag work man.
those other bags that are tied to the wall is makin me trip out. it looks like they are upright and ur on the side wall....wow im crazy. but good workout my friend
Do 4-5 different intense rounds with lenght of 2 - 3 min on the heavy bag.
Rest 1 min after you finish each round.. thats really good training. During the rounds dont stop, always stay in action.. try to do more defense moves..
very good work bros!! Just word of advice - do not cross your feet. If someone saw that they would time it and kick you off balance with a teep or sweep your legs.
Overall very nice and smooth. Elbows a tiny bit wingy which could cost you the odd liver punch if you spar a good boxer. Otherwise keep up the good work!!!
overall pretty good form and you seem pretty smooth moving around the bag. I like the way you used the swinging of the bag to work on your movement and footwork. Your round kicks seem to have good power to them but a couple of them you seem to be kicking in line with the bag as opposed to striding to the far side of the bag to shift the power of your kick deep into the bag/body instead of the side of the bag/body. I do like how you hide some of your kicks behind punch combo's.
I just bought an everlast everflex heavy bag and am just starting muay thai and brazillian jiu jtisu this is a great video I love your combos especially at about a minute and 6 seconds good clean heavy punches I am training and hope to be mad good oh by the way love the training to MJ I train to thriller hahaha :)
Great vid, careful with the feet and the round house kicks, always know your distance kicking with the feet eventually will be damaging great vid, and one more thing on the teep/push kick you push the bag it doesn't push you keep training hard PEACE
Good vid, but keep ur hands up
