I've got a great instructor, and the gym is awesome, but your videos might have been the biggest x factor in me improving. I'm happy to say that I just passed my advanced test to move on to the next level, in big part due to your videos. On the off chance you see this, thank you.

@assoverteakettle Год назад

Is it unusual to actually spar better when you're not taking it seriously? I was recently too tired to spar but decided to do so anyway but took a page out of watching Saenchai sparring with people just goofing off and having fun and I found myself doing moves and techniques that usually I only wish I could remember to do. Things Gabriel Varga tells you to do. Sweeps, and 3 kick combos, improvised punch combos, working the long guard, working the feints. It's like my brain just shifted to creative mode and my body took over. I think it's what in traditional martial arts is called empty mindedness (or unconscious competence) where you go on autopilot. Not sure I can ever do it again is the problem.

@JustSomeGuyWithAMustache886 Год назад

And that RIGHT there is why light flow sparring is so good!

@zephyr60078 3 месяца назад

No it’s not unusual-there’s a whole video explaining why light fun sparring is better than rougher sparring because it allows you to improve your technique and defense since you’re not in fight or flight mode

@jaxonnevermore1394 Год назад

I found out that when I’m taking a break, some things just click mentally and I get better when I return. I guess it’s because of pure mental work when on break or just watching matches

@IceNigrootin370 Год назад

I noticed that happens to me and others as well. One guy in my gym I always used to get the better of in the grappling sessions had like a month long break and after he came back he did much better than before the break and he almost subbed me Crazy how that works sometimes

@jaxonnevermore1394 Год назад

I think it’s because of recovery and getting back in with a fresh mind. Healed injuries and everything

@allenbackbone Год назад

I think it's a mixture of watching matches and letting your brain process all the information you learned in training.

@remyhavoc4463 Год назад

It might not be the kind of "break" you're talking about but I think this is a huge factor on why we see a lot. Of fascinating adjustments made in boxing Because they have fairly short rounds but many of them Compared to longer rounds in MMA but with less rounds. They only have 4 breaks in MMA in a 25 minute fight Meanwhile they have 11 breaks in a championship boxing match with shorter rounds. I figure that it's easier to come back and adjust in boxing than in MMA since they have more breaks

@bobross4447 Год назад

I train mma and this always happens with my boxing, after a break I preform super well. But bjj is the opposite, I always get my ass kicked after a break and preform better when consistent. It’s weird.

@dirtpoorchris Год назад

Shadow box in a very dark, cleared out room (maybe set up glow stuff or candles on the boundries) and literally shadow box till you zone out and start imagining enemies and what they would do, reacting and flinching to your strikes. I call it madman kung fu like a prisoner that got locked away or something but practicing with himself. Or put a kung fu movie in the background to augment your shadow boxing and pretend thats what your imaginary target did when you see a move in the movie or put on a MMA match and shadow box your favorite fighter.

@Kal-El207 Год назад

@matheusfelipe1136 Год назад

Love all the tips 🙂 Similar to your first and last combined, I try to have 3 focal points when I spar (1 for offense, 1 for defense, and 1 for whatever I feel like I'm struggling with), and whatever else happens, as long as I'm trying to work on those every round, it's a good session for me. Felt like it really helped me improve my understanding rapidly.

@notyoave_9293 Год назад

Great suggestions. I find a lot of my young guys don’t have a plan when it comes to training. I try to emphasize that they should have a goal with each session, to improve on a technique. Ultimately they resort to what comfortable, to the detriment of adding new skills. I feel like they are more interested in filming, taking pictures to post, and conditioning vs improving their skill and becoming well rounded as a fighter.

@zacharyhui9113 Год назад

Hey Gabriel, I was never able to train muay thai before because of restrictions from my parents. But now that I am a grown adult and have a job, I am able to pay for my training. Been doing it 3 hours a day for almost a month. Your videos were extremely helpful in all aspects. But I had my first sparring session today against two bigger guys (60-70kg)(I am 54kg). One of them just lost a match yesterday. It was a pretty bad hard sparring session, I left with headaches, shin splints and bleeding lips. I know I am still a beginner and learning at an exceptional pace, but that kinda torn my spirit apart to sparr again because of injuries. Or even to compete in the near future. And just when I try and find a new video to show me some inspiriation, this popped up at the exact right time. I am truly grateful that you're still giving tips to beginners everyday. And I just wanna say a massive THANK YOU. Keep it up! Zach

@GabrielVargaOfficial Год назад

First of all that shouldn't be happening. If people that much bigger are going hard just ask them to lighten up. And I'm very happy to hear you enjoy the content. Means a lot.

@Sophisticlesenergy Год назад

If the man himself telling you wasn't enough, I can say as a bjj coach at an MMA gym that sparring that hard your first time against bigger opponents means you should be conscious of if it's a safe gym to train at. I recommend you watch Gabriel's video on how to spot a bad gym. Until then, be safe, protect your brain, and good luck on your journey!

@JustSomeGuyWithAMustache886 Год назад

Yeah man, your partners are hitting you too hard for your first spar! It will be harder to learn when you are trying to avoid getting injured. Sparring hard is only good for testing all the stuff you practiced in light sparring against full impact and pressure. Even in hard sparring, hard shots to the head aren’t good. Make sure you aren’t getting head injuries by telling your partners you want a light spar or finding better partners/gyms. Also if you light spar make sure you actually go light so your partner does too.

@zacharyhui9113 Год назад

I was going light, and the guy was still going pretty hard. And I still went light though as I didn’t want to injure him. The hard sparring was probs just a one off as he looked pretty sour from the lost yesterday. Thank you all for the tips. I will work even harder from now on.

@josesantos2084 Год назад

@@zacharyhui9113 headaches after sparring could be a symptom of brain damage. This is really dangerous and could have long lasting or even life long effects. Do not spar with someone that does that to you. Find a way out. To learn and train technique you should train with people that take care of you and you take care of them. Brain injury is not a joke. People should not train to give or to receive brain damage. This is just dumb. Boxing gloves are weapons.

@forlorn916 Год назад

My experience in the penultimate tip that you give: yeah it works really well, but depends on level between 2 players. Last Saturday I had a sparring section with 1 professional kickboxer and 1 kickboxer from gifted school (a type of school that trains potential kids for national sport team). Yes I did use long guard trying to figure out their patterns but they outclassed my stamina haha. I couldn't make it to the 3rd round. So, if you guys want to spar with new people, pay attention on their level.

@chadwithautism Год назад

Every technique has its weakness. So if you're solely trying to compensate for that weakness by drilling something specific, you may very well run into another weakness. You can sort of ricochet from drilling one specific technique to another, but that would only do so much, especially in terms of making yourself understand the entirety of your art. Which is why fundamentals are key. You have to understand that you need to leverage your strengths, which would make you at least somewhat vulnerable to certain strategies or techniques. But with good fundamentals (from drills) and understanding of strategy (from sparring & watching fights), you can diminish your weaknesses very well to the extent that it wouldn't matter if you had them since it's at the expense of leveraging your strengths to its or their highest level. In contrast, if you're too focused on diminishing all of your weaknesses to the point where you may have none, you would hardly be leveraging anything at all. However, at an advanced level, I believe that there are certain strategies that are the exception to this caveat, but not to the extent of defeating its purpose.

@adventurefamily3220 Год назад

I have the same problem, slowly getting better. I think it mostly comes from being too tense expecting return shots, this really limits the speed you throw your punches. Also a lot of it is learning to throw with speed but not full power.

I can't stress the first tip enough of working on techniques you know are your weakness. I had a very sorry excuse for a left teep for the longest time and I never threw it because I thought it would never be effective for me. A day came where I sparred with a guy with a crazy good left teep and I thought to myself, man I want that tool in my toolbelt. After that, everyday I went to the gym I worked on that left teep at any chance I could. After I got competent with it, it quickly became my new favorite technique and turned into a new kind of Jab for me and something that I could feint so I could land my right hand. 🦵
