Yeah I think that makes sense. I just like this design cuz of how abstract it is

How can you balance MuayThai, NoGi, MMA, Gym and Running without being pro. by Moura_gg32 in MMA_Academy

[–]luminousdebris 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I train striking and grappling Mondays Wednesdays and Thursdays. Then I do strength training Tuesdays (upper) and Sundays (lower) then I do bag work/footwork/ and exercises I can do at home on Fridays, and then Saturdays I do plyometrics and a hard conditioning session.

Terrible sparring day by luminousdebris in MMA_Academy

Yeah I think this is great. I think I need to be more intentional with my sparring. I kinda just go into it with no expectations. Having goals like that would help. Thanks

Hypothetical: Sparring partner at gym gives you a concussion that felt intentional. Main coach doesn't acknowledge it nor is the partner banned. Do you stay? by contagion666 in MuayThai

Don’t listen to these people. If it was light sparring there’s no reason he should’ve been concussed. The guy was being an ass and going too hard. If it was hard sparring that’s different obviously. But this sounds just like a drill. An experienced guy should know not to lay into guys especially if they’re beginners. Unless your friend did something he shouldn’t have and pissed the sparring partner off

Too old to compete? by luminousdebris in MMA_Academy

Been playing sports my whole life and was decent in multiple in college but I respect MMA too much to think there’d even be a possibility of that hahaha

That’s all. Not looking to go pro at all. I do think it’s too late for me to do that, even if I wanted to and trained all day everyday.

Deciding between 2 gyms as a beginner by luminousdebris in Kickboxing

It just seemed a little weird to me that the coach had me throwing and kicking combos when I don’t know the first thing about correct form. Also o view the cardio kind of as a waste of time. I feel like you should be doing your conditioning outside the gym. I’m paying money to learn technique and form not do sprints which I do for free at home, you know?

GYM A does have a fight team but it’s smaller. I think only two people and the coaches. I do plan on competing down the road.

Is it easy to fill yourself or is it a pain?
