@kevincooper5656 2 года назад

@Gabriel Varga: I for one would definitely like to see more of your Muay Thai tips. I was going through the tips on my heavy bag as I watched and it made a lot of sense (especially the front kick technique - gonna have to break the habit of swinging my arm down :-) Anyway I learn a lot from your channel. Thanks.

@davidolmos6335 2 года назад

When I first learned to teep, it was actually with hands up. After seeing so many people swing arms down, I started doing that but stopped after I saw thai fights keep hands up. Even when they round kick, sometimes they keep hands up but they tend to have them in front of them so as to smother punches.

@chrisbrodbeck1961 Год назад

Gabriel, I agree on everything there, what I'm taking away is the ability to adjust accordingly. I would definitely turn the head to maintain balance and power, whats next is also in that mix. Thinking is hugely important. It's like English football, the idea is to invent 3 plays forward while moving. We cant blindly move down the field. That being said thank you for turning the lights on, were home !

@leroyhayes3251 2 года назад

I was taught elbows on the outside by the Thais I trained with. (Master Chan, Kru Kongnapa) everything else you mentioned was exactly how I was taught and how we train. Excellent tips for those who haven’t trained in traditional Muay Thai.

@paulpelle3046 2 года назад

Definitely outside brother 🙏 ...that’s what we’re taught at our gym too...and it’s DEFINITELY a legit gym (I won’t name it coz I don’t think Gabriel would be happy? Kinda advertising I guess 🤷‍♂️). But let’s just say we had a 14-time Muay Thai world champion come from our gym. 💪 Outside provides greater overall protection, and enables defence of basically the entire checking side (especially if you’re in curled/tight guard). Having the arm/elbow on the inside is just a complete waste and inefficient 🤷‍♂️ Hate to EVER disagree with the man Mr. Varga here, but it’s definitely the outside in Thai boxing. Inside has clearly worked extremely well for him though, so. 👏🙏

@@paulpelle3046 I train muy Thai in a small Argentinian dojo, but I was taught the same way, What My coach says is that the elbow outside creates some form of stable barrier with the leg, sorry if My English is kinda crappy, I'm a spanish speaker and some phrases come may come out wrong 🤣

@paulpelle3046 2 года назад

@@denjipoochita7351 Trainor is legit, an awesome instructor, no doubt. 👌 I think there really IS something to be said about ‘traditional Muay Thai’ and ‘West-style’ Thai boxing though - there really are differences...trading is a very clear example. That is 100% the ‘traditional Thai’ style...and the crowds over there love it, and expect it too tbh 🤷‍♂️ The western approach is more about shot selection, counters, and generally using solid fight I.Q. rather than long, up-close trades...another reason Thais are generally built like rock 🙏

@canarc1 Год назад

I just spent 40 days in Thailand training. I also picked up these exact same points. I had different trainers in the same camp say elbows in and elbows out. Through my own analysis, l decided elbows out. The reason being that you are adding more blocking resistance to the round kick coming in to the upper rib cage. Thanks bruther for your excellent and generous videos.

@DragomirJtac 2 года назад

Awesome video. I'd love to hear about more the smaller, more technical nuances from Thailand if you had any others! The three biggest contentions I see with regards to Muay Thai technique involve checking (elbow in vs elbow out, / toe up vs toe down), defense on teeps / kicks / knees (glove on side of head vs glove in front of face), and being flat flooted on the teep vs being on up on your toe. Would love to hear your thoughts on some of these as discussion isn't easy to find online!

@Dante3014 2 года назад

That was amazing! Big thanks for sharing ya knowledge with us.

@Acumenathletics 2 года назад

Great tips! So true about different gyms in Thailand wanting techniques slightly different. Examples like throwing a long knee. When I was at MeeNayoThin they wanted the knee straight up, little hip extension, no hip rotation. At FA Group they wanted hand & head control, hip extension & hip rotation.

@ThomasToPC 2 года назад

Yes, would really appreciate another video from you sharing technical stuff you learned in Thailand! Re arm being inside when checking kicks, I think a benefit is for better defence with the arms, especially against any straight punch that comes right after their kick, particularly if that kick was a feint. The other benefit, I’m guessing, is to more easily counter with your own straight punch since your elbow is already down.

@FightVideos 2 года назад

The leg kicks can be powerful, so putting the elbow outside of the same side of thigh when we check is safer in case the hand got kicked and gives way. Unless the blocking is very effectively angled or high enough, then the elbow even inside is not a big problem. It is more of good practice. When straight right slightly dig in won’t be slow. Don’t have to full dig in if we drop our weight to the hand’s opposite leg. Even if cross we can dig in the punch slightly we can return faster by body relaxation action after cross.

@theserpentofmendes 2 года назад

the drop cross seems to synergise with the thai guard of facing hands more forward, you need to corkscrew your arm when you punch so the drop makes sure you dont chicken wing when your hand is more foreward facing at the begining of the strike.

@hellnightmer 2 года назад

It would definitely be awesome to see you put these tips in practice, maybe pads, maybe some sparring with commentary! I will make sure to apply some of these, specially the one for the teep, I've seen it in some fights but never thought of it as the correct way, just a slight variation for a specific scenario. Regarding the elbows in front or behind the leg when blocking, I was taught to leave them behind so you can create a frame to support the leg when checking. I personally think is more comfortable the other way, but a bit unstable for me since I can't frame the same way.

@manbearbeastpig666 2 года назад

Very interesting that you talked about the hand being in the center on the tiip. One night one of the krus from a sister gym came in and led practice and when he threw his tiips he did mostly the same thing, only he would slightly turn that hand and flick it outwards right at the moment of extension if im making sense at all? I liked how it looked and adopted it, and i found with my hand going up the center instead of swinging it was actually easier for me to pop the hip out the way its supposed to. Keep the videos coming!

I've a Master Toddy & Sken background and that drop on the punch comes from a higher guard, thus one is not exposing the jaw.

By a million miles, that was the best kickboxing fight I've ever seen, even though Ronnie was past his best

I know some Karate / French Savate practitioners will even curl their toes back and strike with the ball of the foot. What’s your opinion on the striking surface relative to the target on the opponent’s body? Thank you!

@davidolmos6335 2 года назад

The thing about the elbows inside or outside is just hand positioning. Checking is more or less the same with the leg. Your hands can have a tighter guard for more boxing or have elbows flare out. In the US, I had people teach me to have elbows out. It was the gyms where they weren't quite dutch kickboxing or Muay Thai that taught me to have elbows make contact with knee.

@davids.7052 2 года назад

You can also look with one eye during kicking or punching. Side step during kick or lean abit to side helps. But not looking by turning head is not a good practice. Even with kick using hands to block counter punches is fine, but side step or lean abit can also be used.
