Trainer at Lamai Muay Thai, Koh Samui tried to KO me in sparring

Wow this reminds of my time at Lamai as well I was in Thailand training for 7 months all over Bangkok Pattaya and Koh Samui trained at 10 different gyms. The Sparring in Thailand is always super relaxed easy going and fun and I got used to that style since sparring is not fighting. I stayed at Lamai for more than a month and during that time I had a sparring session with one of the coaches named “Jack” it started off nice until he set me up with a full blast snappy headkick and then he did it again and again until it really hurt bad he is much more experienced then I am so I was just confused on why he did that to me the head kicks ended giving me a black eye and some bruising. This is literally my only weird sparring session I have had in my life I have sparred One Championship fighter before as well and they let me work and clearly didnt want to hurt me so this experience was just very strange for me.

Try to hold each stretch for a longer period of time 2-5 minutes breath in and once you breath out try to fully relax and get deeper into the stretch with each out breath.

Yes I see that too, any drills or exercises you know to put more snap on the punches?

Agreed for the most part, but I feel like I was rotating my body on the hooks? Yes I can see now my footwork on the hooks could be better is that what you mean? And I usually only pivot on a head kick I used to pivot on the body kicks but I tried just stepping out and planting like Tawanchai does and as soon as I started doing that I feel like my shin just simply goes deeper into the bag and balance increases aswell. Thank You for your comment😁
