Wrestling - 1 hour

*I joined a new gym, where I will train in Muay Thai, Wrestling, and BJJ for $100 per month. I can’t beat that in my area and their hours are good (meaning, I can attend their afternoon classes since I work the night shift).

Unfortunately, I was a little disappointed with my first Muay Thai class today. The instruction, conditioning, and students weren’t nearly as good and humble as the other Thai Boxing gym I was training at. In the near future, I plan to return to the Thai Boxing gym I was going to previously. I really connected with the trainers and fighters and felt at home their.

Here is what I did today:

Muay Thai - 1 hour

Warmup consisting of: 30 seconds of pushups, 30 seconds of sit-ups, 30 seconds of planks, 30 seconds of leg raises

6 rounds of partner pad drills: various combinations

3 rounds on the heavy bag

I am sorry for the disappointment, but I think you made a good decision overall.

I agree, I think I made a good decision, too. I really enjoyed the Wrestling class. I am going to be able to train more and save money while doing so.

Thai Boxing - 1 hour

10 minutes of running

1 round (4 minutes) of the following: 20 jumping jacks, 20 squats, 20 pushups, 20 sit-ups

1 round (4 minutes) consisting of: 50 left middle kicks and 50 right middle kicks on the heavy bag

6 rounds (4 minutes) of partner drills focusing on counters: left inside middle kicks-left outside middle kicks, countered by right cross, left hook, right middle kick

At the end of each round focusing on the partner drills listed above, I did 20 pushups during the 30 seconds of rest between rounds

1 round (4 minutes) of holding the heavy bag for partner who delivered 50 left middle kicks and 50 right middle kicks on the heavy bag

IMO using 3lbs of weight while striking is doing you a disservice. You’re not going to fight with 3lbs gloves ( depending on the organization you fight for 8oz -12oz). If you want to work your punching mechanic’s muscle endurance you should add volume instead of weight. (16oz sparring gloves max). Adding heavy weight can alter your form and timing by applying weight on the wrong muscles.

This video talks about the same concept but I hope Tumminello explains it better than I did
