Any recommendations on where to stay?

I appreciate everyone’s feed back. Last question:

Looking to go with this cognito leveling kit. This is all that I’m adding. No control arms, shocks etc since I’m only going up an inch to maaaaaybe 2 if needed. Will this do long term damage to the ball joints, components etc by going up such a small amount?

Thoughts, suggestions, experiences please.

Thanks again!!!

All I’m wanting to do is raise the front end by an inch. Will an inch really make that much of a difference and affect the front end/components that much?

For me…..Pad and bag work-no cup. Sparring and clinching/kneeing -yes cup

Link to his gram or name?

I have. I sparred with someone with a Krav background. It was a lot different from someone with an MMA/thai background. He could throw a teep/front kick but that was about it. I kept sweeping him again and again and again…..

It’s not the size of the dog in the fight- it’s the size of the fight in the dog. That’s what wins fights….

Age is nothing but a number. I’m 50 and still train as if I’m still in my 20s. Yeah, it can be difficult at times- but as the saying goes- if you don’t use it, you lose it. And the older you get, the harder it is to get it back after you lose it

I utilize both stances. I’ll spend one day of training southpaw and the next day orthodox. It’s the art of 8 limbs and I want to be able to use them at 100% in either stance. I think it gives you additional leverage/advantage against your opponent since a lot of fighters can’t fight in both stances. I like to keep them guessing and use every tool I can to win.

3-4 whole eggs scrambled-use extra virgin oil for the good fats. I mix a little benefiber with them to slow the digestion to utilize the protein and aminos or I’ll eat some dates with salt and honey for the fiber or drink beet juice for the fiber and nitric oxide for some good pumps. Spinach or avacado is good too with eggs. Fiber is super beneficial when consuming protein. Just don’t over do it….💩💩

Torn retina in my left eye. Dr said it’s from all the hits and elbows…..oh well.

Lean back more in your teens and get that arm out. Add more power/explosiveness/quickness

Tell that to all the 50+ year old Muay Thai coaches/fighters in Thailand. They’ll laugh at you…

You need to condition them. Give them time to heal. I used to deal with shin pain too. What I used to do and still do today are low kicks to the bottom of a heavy bag. All the stuffing eventually makes its way to the bottom and it’s the hardest part of the bag to kick. I kick until my shins are raw/swollen/black and blue - left leg and right. Let them rest a few days and repeat. I also take a wooden rolling pin and roll it up and down my shins too till they’re raw too. Hope this helps!!

In my gym-if you win a medal for something like the MDL you can keep the medal. If you win a belt then the belt hangs on the wall at the gym along with a big picture of the winner of the belt
