CROSS YOUR HAND! You need to guard the side of your face that is facing your opponent...pause the video after your spin elbow...you are blocking the side of your head that isn't even facing your opponent
Isn't your right leg not supposed to move during that spinning elbow.. To add to the torque? That's what I was taught but I'd like to hear why he turned it
What if the target leans back a few inches and then pushes, punches or elbow the arm connecting to your "curled-up wrist"? I'd guess sprained/broken wrist :|
I'm 5' 5" and 8st. If I learn Muay Thai will I be able get strong enough and learn techniques that will help me defend against niggaboos? Please answer.
@Kousaburo technique is always better than strength. Muay Thai isn't a reliable self defense martial art, it being a sport. Learn the techniques and principles of Muay Thai and Boxing, then learn Krav Maga. It's much more suited for real life encounters.
haha when he says you always have to make sure your other hand protects your chin and the rest of your face the guys other hand the guy puts his second hand away and sticks out his face xDD
ooh yes that may change my opinion. i kind of immigrated to muay-thai from judo. and that was what the muay-thai trainer told me. or was it to go back quickly to a defensive stance lol :s hmmm... but you're opionion is right
The most powerful elbow strike, in my opinion, is something like stile No.1 in this video..
Classical karate elbow strike, like a crochet with elbow, up from down...
And for turnover elbow it works only if your opponent is surprised and from half gard, as I know- but instead of that most of people try to do it when attacking!?
OK. I've seen your point... I've watched some muay thai trainings (even trained some sort of muay thai on my kickboxing trainings) and they train elbows and knees more than others, but in Europe muay thai fighters, as far as I know, have better punches, taken from boxing, than fighters from Thailand or other countries from region, and of course this is generalization...
I wish you good trainings and luck, especially in tasting elbows - skip that part ;)
@MuayThaiHawaii96720 These guys are Dutch, so they won't be speaking in English, but I assume that in the actual raw footage they're just going over what they are going to do, rather than explaining it like in the edited video.
The power of the elbow comes not only from the swing of the elbow, but through the hip and the twist of the leg (plus the step took to strike). Elbow is very powerful strike if do it correctly.
@yusofyahaya you can also throw a slicing elbow with less torque and more accuracy and speed and still devastate someone. theres a knockout elbow but there is also a quick slicing elbow that I find works great too
Hitting a bag is one thing. Getting your ass whooped in Sparring is the other thing. Always keep an eye on the fluent combination of the techniques, never rely on one technique. The bag doesn't hit back, your Sparring partner does.
elbow only works in very close combat otherwise its to risky, without gloves a punch is stronger for knockout. And you have to be really fast with elbows, recover fast to guard yourself, like the video said ur varuable, its important to get back to your defence stance after the elbow
@Sinantay Actually an elbow can deliver more power I've found, although it could just be personal preference. It's not risky to be close in a street fight, as most people can't fight at that range, we can.
@Sinantay elbow do work very well in close combat, but it is not harder than the fist...if you look at the fist you notice that has a greater area than your elbow, elbow concentrate all the force into one single are at the tip of your elbow. It's not just a knockout it can be deadly if hit at the right area. also with elbows you can't throw a punch in close combat you don't have enough of a drawback to deliver a good one and your non hitting elbow is your defensive guard
@14kokos33 nee, pero es una demostracion.Golpes asi de codos todos seguidos con velocidad y fuerza, olvidate,Lo haces de goma.Acordate que para pegar asi tenes que estar muy cerca de tu oponente,eso significa que es mas dificil para este,pegarte.
@Schaschale that's cause Muay thai came from Muay boran. Such lethal weapons from Boran and chie is way to dangerous to compete in. Yes Im in training right now, lmao.
@ANZACJugger0 ofcourse muay boran would be more "kick ass" cuz' muay thai i "just" for sport.. muay boran was the fighting style the thai soldiers in old days. this means that muay thai (still a great sport) is for getting a K.O and muay boran is to kill your opponent.
you know what i think is stupid is how a lot of fighters hit heavy bags that they can't even move ie: to heavy. you don't gain any power in your punches if you can't move the bag, so it's dumb to hit a bag that's to heavy.
@womblewandering It's a bag drill where you consistently have to jab the bag without making it move, it's good for learning to bring your hand back quickly while generating just enough power so you can bring it back even faster.
I dunno what that guys comment was (couldnt find it) but in some cases the bag moving isn't always great. In training, sometimes you need to work on technical ability and control without the power so you can get used to doing it correctly before you apply power. The bag is just a target and you need to show restraint and contorl by making contact but without the power to move it. Once you can do that, apply the power and it will alot more powerful.
If you intend to learn the ring style elbows, they are available everywhere but with varying qualities in terms of practicalities and instructions. The ring style elbows are basically offensive weapons. But if you want to learn how to use elbows also for very effective blocking and and counter attacks, you must look at Muay Chaiya. In my humble opinion, the Muay Chaiya's way is very effective both inside and outside the ring.
i was training in muay thai but i just could not get really good elbows. boxing, clinch were alright but the fucking elbows threw my combinations off.
Does anyone know a site with a description about how to give them elbows ?
I'd like to learn this sport but my parents don't want me to get them lessons.
So I was thinkin' bout takin' lessons from youtube etc.
I noticed that even through watching this vid, my elbows still aren't perfect, I didnt put my fist at the right spot etc... So I'd like some extra info, any suggestions/help ?
@Exoji I've recently started taking lessons, and although i think you can learn alot from the instructional videos (it certainly gave me the basics,what to expect from my teacher etc b4 my first lesson)- get some pads and work in your room with a pal who is willing to train with you until you can take the iniative when old enough to pay for the lessons yourself. Keep the practice up the passion to learn, and you'll blow everyone away at your 1st lesson!(sorry i can't offer any specific sight)
Guys i have a question about head kicks in muay thai or boxing whatever...How is possibly to take some hard punches in head given with a leg or fist i don't care and not to fall down,have all these fighters hard heads or it's a way how you get used to it???
@8tomy8 You either have a glass chin or a granate chin. The only way to find out which you have it to get hit HARD. There is no way to train knockout resistance you either got it or you don't.
@Darylw27 I agree and i disagree. There are ways to protect yourself in a fight to minimize the damage you receive. If u take an elbow to the temple...i dont care how strong u think u are u are going down
@ronmatthews That's certainly true and I didn't mean for my comment to come across that way. I was just stating there are people out there who can take knees and kicks to the head and recover and others who would get knocked out by it. Obviously the best thing to do is defend yourself so you don't have to relay on your chin.
@USEejit Yes, it does. Touch the centre of you chest with the knuckles of your thumb as you rotate through your elbow. Then try while bending the wrist and placing the top of your hand to the centre of your chest. Notice how much more and how much easier that elbow comes around?
Cover up with your hand, yet you don't even do it right? That same guy with the black boxing gloves hitting the boxing bag is doing it wrong. You don't leave your hand out to for 'cover'. You're a dickhead mate. Have you acctually done competative MT fighting in Thailand?
@firegold84 if you're a member of a gym they should usually insure you. which if you get in a fight and really hurt someone will look go in your favour. warn them, but if they attack, go to town on the fucker.
Can a beginner who has no earlier experience in martial arts start Muay Thai? I'm in decent condition, been going to gym for almost two years, don't know if it matters. (17 years old). I've just suddenly got this urge to start a martial art...
@Deadkira There truly is no need for previous expirience to start a martial art especially in muay thai beacuse technuiqes in this martial art are not usually based on flexibility or acrobatic flips
@Deadkira Yes, there is no wrong time to get started. And at most gyms, they will ask you if you've had experience or not, and help you get started. I haven't been training Muay Thai for too long, but before Muay Thai I had absolutely no martial arts experience. If you're looking for competition, or fitness, getting in shape, or just enjoy martial arts, definitely go for it. Just go in there with an open mind, and be willing to learn.
@Deadkira Absolutly!!! I'm a Muai thai practionner since 2 years now and i had no background at all in martial art.... I really like this sport cause it's pretty intense and hard!!!!! You have to try it!!!! It'shard at the beginning but after a couple month it become easier.....it's a lot of cardio....

Do you know , good professional Muay Thai fighter in Thailand can kill someone with just one elbow attack. You wont die with one punch attack , but one elbow attack can kill you really. Maybe elbows are the most dangerous weapon of muay thai , but it's hardest to use.
@9N8X definitely man,i think a bitta kickboxing/taekwondo etc. thrown in though is great,love watching the dutch fighting thai and seeing something a little less conservative thrown in,like a spinning high kick and just being like..."what the fuck!?"haha!
Thats a nice view. Elbows are underestimated in street fights like kicks. I see alot of street fights on youtube with amateurs using elbows. Done right like in this video and deadly!
@probe26 muay thai elbows are not just throwing elbows. It requires tehcniques, skills, and practices. Most of martial arts today have elbow strikes. They may come from muay thai elbow strikes or not, no one cares but muay thai fighters still use elbows most effective and efficient.
i think i hate the "im so noble and humble and respect everytyhing" type of guy more than the "i can headkick godzilla if i wanted and knock out brock lesnar with a single jab" kinda guy....
Good training video, easy to understand if u have some knowledge in the martial arts. Mixing muay thai with other arts will only make a fighter better. Thanks
i don't know if it's me but i'm taught that when throwing an elbow your opposite arm guards the front of your face that way you'll be better protected from frontal attcks
I know it's an instructional video, but if your going to try to learn how to throw an elbow from this video, remember to throw it through your target, not at them.
@NoobsSuckx7 All strikes of muay thai are made to penetrate and deliver high amounts of force. To do so, you not only have to make contact; you have to drive through with the strike to get the most powerful, effective strike.
Think of it this way: Does a train stop when it hits a car because it made contact with the car? No; it drives through the car like it's paper. Your strike is the train, your opponent the car.
@bloodletter55 you can still be effective with a slicing. glancing type of elbow. its like a knife. slice or a more powerful yet just as effective stab.
actually that is true if you're a heavy weight, because both of you will have less speed. but if you're a lightweight you have to make your punches slick, just hit him fast, fast painfull touches... because if your hand stays in front of you your defence is down. yes maybe you will have hit him harder but he is thaught to ignore your punch and hit you back the same time. now your defence is down you will eat the tarmac
@rocksfoplox Yeah but your concept is based more around boxing, in muay thai you're enforced to go forward at all times wile taking shots. Scoring in MT is more heavily based on toughness rather than technique.
@Jandro1083 same for me for my shotokan, we were always taught to hit THROUGH the opponent, like we're aiming our fist at their solar plexus, but we're actually trying to hit the area behind them.
@Jandro1083DUMMY. HES RIGHT DONT YOU UNDERSTAND HIM? YOU MAY TRICK YOUR BRAIN AND YOU GET IT PROGRAMED TO DO IT ALWAYS RIGHT,.you cross him, yo dont hit him, danger, do it right, or you may brake your hand or a leg.
thas why this is called art, you need to do it right.. speedcross him son of a bitche, thats what i said to my pupils.
first left elbow strike in this video is thrown after a left step. Much more power to step with the right foot and strike with the left elbow. Try this, you will see.
the technique is close to good, but your blocking hand should be closer to the middle of your face..... I see a great oportunity to get your nose broken if you do not bring your hand closer in to cover your face.
also your "body shot" elbow should be tighter, you are exposing your kidney and should be watching out for a knee to the back
muaythai does not break brick,board or what ever.no breaking competition,no shouting no ten against one but everyone loves to train as it is for yourself.gentle people.only smiles when you train.
3;14 you are blocking away from the opponent

@USEejit it does. but just try do it in a boxing glow. if u bend ur wrist ur elbow can go fader.
7mgteinside 1 year ago
@USEejit Yes, it does. Touch the centre of you chest with the knuckles of your thumb as you rotate through your elbow. Then try while bending the wrist and placing the top of your hand to the centre of your chest. Notice how much more and how much easier that elbow comes around?
Peace.

OBSERVE:
TO EMPLOY EFFECTIVE ELBOWS ONE MUST HAVE DEVELOPED FOOT WORK!
THE VAST MAJORITY OF THE TIME ATTACKING ELBOWS NEED MOVEMENT TO GET IN POSTION TO LET ELBOWS LOOSE.
THE OPPERTUNITY FOR IN PLACE ELBOWS IS MUCH LESS FREQUENT THAN STEPPING IN AND ATTACKING..
DO WHAT THE VIDEO SAYS AND THEN STEP IN AND ATTACK !!
ITS ALL JUST DO EAZY RIGHT??
TRY LEARNING TO -CLENCH -PUMMEL AND INIATE-EMPLOYE ELBOWS FROM THE COLLAR TIE POSITION!

Cover up with your hand, yet you don't even do it right? That same guy with the black boxing gloves hitting the boxing bag is doing it wrong. You don't leave your hand out to for 'cover'. You're a dickhead mate. Have you acctually done competative MT fighting in Thailand?

@firegold84 if you're a member of a gym they should usually insure you. which if you get in a fight and really hurt someone will look go in your favour. warn them, but if they attack, go to town on the fucker.

Can a beginner who has no earlier experience in martial arts start Muay Thai? I'm in decent condition, been going to gym for almost two years, don't know if it matters. (17 years old). I've just suddenly got this urge to start a martial art...
Deadkira 1 year ago
@Deadkira There truly is no need for previous expirience to start a martial art especially in muay thai beacuse technuiqes in this martial art are not usually based on flexibility or acrobatic flips
G1b23 1 year ago
@Deadkira Yes, there is no wrong time to get started. And at most gyms, they will ask you if you've had experience or not, and help you get started. I haven't been training Muay Thai for too long, but before Muay Thai I had absolutely no martial arts experience. If you're looking for competition, or fitness, getting in shape, or just enjoy martial arts, definitely go for it. Just go in there with an open mind, and be willing to learn.

@Deadkira Absolutly!!! I'm a Muai thai practionner since 2 years now and i had no background at all in martial art.... I really like this sport cause it's pretty intense and hard!!!!! You have to try it!!!! It'shard at the beginning but after a couple month it become easier.....it's a lot of cardio....
Good luck!!!!

Do you know , good professional Muay Thai fighter in Thailand can kill someone with just one elbow attack. You wont die with one punch attack , but one elbow attack can kill you really. Maybe elbows are the most dangerous weapon of muay thai , but it's hardest to use.

Thats a nice view. Elbows are underestimated in street fights like kicks. I see alot of street fights on youtube with amateurs using elbows. Done right like in this video and deadly!
probe26 1 year ago
@probe26 muay thai elbows are not just throwing elbows. It requires tehcniques, skills, and practices. Most of martial arts today have elbow strikes. They may come from muay thai elbow strikes or not, no one cares but muay thai fighters still use elbows most effective and efficient.

i don't know if it's me but i'm taught that when throwing an elbow your opposite arm guards the front of your face that way you'll be better protected from frontal attcks

I know it's an instructional video, but if your going to try to learn how to throw an elbow from this video, remember to throw it through your target, not at them.
bloodletter55 1 year ago 51
@bloodletter55 can you explain what you mean by through the target and not at them i need some tips.
NoobsSuckx7 1 year ago
@NoobsSuckx7 All strikes of muay thai are made to penetrate and deliver high amounts of force. To do so, you not only have to make contact; you have to drive through with the strike to get the most powerful, effective strike.
Think of it this way: Does a train stop when it hits a car because it made contact with the car? No; it drives through the car like it's paper. Your strike is the train, your opponent the car.
Hope I helped.

NoobsSuckx7 1 year ago
@bloodletter55 you can still be effective with a slicing. glancing type of elbow. its like a knife. slice or a more powerful yet just as effective stab.

littlewing4813 8 months ago
actually that is true if you're a heavy weight, because both of you will have less speed. but if you're a lightweight you have to make your punches slick, just hit him fast, fast painfull touches... because if your hand stays in front of you your defence is down. yes maybe you will have hit him harder but he is thaught to ignore your punch and hit you back the same time. now your defence is down you will eat the tarmac
rocksfoplox 8 months ago
@rocksfoplox Yeah but your concept is based more around boxing, in muay thai you're enforced to go forward at all times wile taking shots. Scoring in MT is more heavily based on toughness rather than technique.

first left elbow strike in this video is thrown after a left step. Much more power to step with the right foot and strike with the left elbow. Try this, you will see.
BKKaye 1 year ago
the technique is close to good, but your blocking hand should be closer to the middle of your face..... I see a great oportunity to get your nose broken if you do not bring your hand closer in to cover your face.
also your "body shot" elbow should be tighter, you are exposing your kidney and should be watching out for a knee to the back
