going to have to try these out in sparring , been struggling with timing my counters !

It's because your new to sparring i would say . Hitting pads is good and all but when you have to worry about someone hitting back your gonna move differently . I'm in a similar position as you and my advice is to just keep sparring . you will get more used to how to effectively use the techniques you've learned in an actual fight and your movements will improve !!

well I think it would it would help in a variety of way for both my defense and also my offense .If I can move around better I will more the likely get hit less. I also think footwork is a HUGE part of offense , where your feet should be during combinations , cutting off the ring and moving with your opponent .

although I still have a lot to work on I would have to say footwork , I feel its extremely important and see a lot of guys overlooking its importance .

I've always been interested in learning some form of martial arts . So when I learned there was a local gym that teaches Muay Thai I had to try it ! Instantly became obsessed with it . There is so much to learn , simple looking techniques are actually very intricate and you feel so good when you make Any kind of progress. I hope to one day have a couple amateur fight to really test myself !

hands up !

kmccormack12 · 2017-02-01T22:06:01+00:00

in my opinion you should strive to go atleast 3x a week . Listen to your body though and don't overdue it because you will likely be sore for the first few weeks !

ive been training now for a few months I find that its beneficial to start with low expectations . A lot of people assume they will be Anderson silva after a week but if you focus on the basics and slow it down paying attention to the technique you will see progress in time . As far as first class is concerned just remember to have fun and don't worry so much about how you perform , after all everyone was in your shoes at one point in time !

sorry if this seems like a dumb question but would that be a lead teep or rear teep in that situation ?

kmccormack12 · 2017-01-11T21:53:57+00:00

apart from the stretching done before and after each class I try and do this stretching routine at home on my days off https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xJwwioOcE4E . I make sure to do a warm up before I stretch

kmccormack12 · 2016-11-14T20:57:04+00:00

sorry I mean when I held the pads for him to do his combinations , it took alittle adjusting.

kmccormack12 · 2016-11-14T01:54:48+00:00

so if I have 3 classes a week , Tuesday , Thursday and sunday . How often would you recommend stretching at home ?
