  • My first Muay Thai class!

    I had my first Muay Thai class today, it was a personal one, he taught me the jab, cross and left hook and also the roundhouse. He knew I took TKD so he gave me minimal instruction and just told me to blast the pads when he told me what combinations to do. I think the instructor is on crack. Haha, its just that he told me I had hell of alot of power for a small guy and he was wondering if I wanted to compete and maybe make money, I was like WTF? Its only my first time! He was even thinking I should try for a fight in Vancouver by April. Anyways, I thought I was going to die, the CONDITIONING IS ****ING HARD.....I almost passed out twice after and had the biggest damn headache that still persists. Course it didnt help that I had a cold.

    Overall the instructor told me I had great potential but I needed tuning on my overall skills, keeping my hands up and also MY CARDIO. This class was just to see what level I was at and to see how much heart I had, I think.

    He said to me "If you decide to continue with this, your training will be like hell with me, your going to have to learn how to take imense pain and to keep on fighting. I cant give you the heart to keep on fighting when you need to and I also cant force you to do anything."


    BTW-I AM HELLA HAPPY NOW.....NO LONGER an ARM CHAIR WARRIOR!

    I must say that I am immensly jealous. Due to current time/money constraints I'm doomed to being an arm-chair warrior. Hopefully that will change in the near future.

    I hope the training goes well for you.

      Right on!

      Man, I'm looking to my almost-planned vacation to a MT training camp in Pattaya with a mixture of dread and excitement. I know it will be an utterly humbling experience, but will probably also be one of the best MA experiences in my life. Your post has hightened my anticipation...
