Gabriel, I have an amateur k1 bout tomorrow. It will be my third fight after 10 years since my last one. Just wanted to thank you for all your knowledge and content, I feel more ready than I ever have for my past fights. Thank you so much, from a massive fan of yourself as a fighter, RU-vidr and great role model.

@stevenshar1233 Год назад

One thing you can use to train your eye sight is a reflex ball. Another weird tip for locking down your core is to sing along with your favorite song, while you're skipping rope or running. When you project your voice, you're pulling from your diaphragm. It teaches you breath control and flexing your diaphragm while doing an intense activity. Maybe it's an exercise for your home instead of the gym.

@notmyname3681 Год назад

Came here to post just this.. singing (when not training also) is one of the best things for diaphragm and breath control. If you're real serious go do a few singing lessons with a classical coach, learn some scales and arpeggios. Tell them why you're doing it so they know what to focus on. Yes, I'm serious lol sang classical for years.

@chrismayclin6397 Год назад

When looking at someone straight on, your eyes focus more on detail. Whereas when you see something coming “out of the corner of your eye”, your eyes notice movement more (peripheral sight survival programming). Therefore, when sparring, I do not look directly at my partner, but cast my eyes down a little (good for tucking the chin anyway). This has made me much quicker on defense than I actually am due to my ability to more quickly pick up on my partner’s cues.

@GabrielVargaOfficial Год назад

Do you have all 3 skills locked in? If not what are you going to work to improve quickly?

@jacksonmuaythai Год назад

I need to work on the last one, but how do I improve that? Is that a core strength thing? Or is there something i should be doing besides just flexing?

@avancalledrupert5130 Год назад

I'm good at sight and reaction my timing is good. My core is always solid all day . I need to mix my kicks in with my hands better. I kind of kick my way into boxing range and just box. And cardio my cardio sucks . Hit crazy fast and hard but for hardly any time . I think allot of that's genetic though hit hard gas fast kind of person.

@Ash__Adler Год назад

Very good tips 🙂 Maintaining offensive pressure instead of "ending" with a kick/knee was something I focused on pretty early on in sparring because I felt like I was giving my partners too much opportunity to relax, and getting good at passive body protection was a must since there are a few liver-hunters at my gym 🙃 (I don't measure up to the good fighters at my gym skillwise, but I've got good general athleticism and an unrelenting approach, so I rely on keeping up pressure and pushing the pace to keep things productive for them...had many of them comment afterwards that they felt like I wore them down because I just keep coming no matter how much they knock me back or toss me down)

@johnacker4959 Год назад

There you go brother! We can all learn from each other. I sparred with one of the pros in my gym last night and i was able to pressure him and push forward despite a 35 lb weight disparity. Granted, he was sparring with mutual respect but i was still catching him and pressuring. Its all about the attitude and mindset you bring with yourself to the gym. He asked for a second round after that:)

@SG-MT Год назад

My coach says I'm too tough on myself but I think I still need to improve on all three. Mainly focusing on defense because in the past I've just chosen to eat the punches and keep going by taking the "Rodtang approach" or just being a pressure fighter but forgetting to cover up. I am better than my sparring partners and opponents so far at keeping my stomach tight and well-conditioned. And I am actually really proud of my cardio. My opponents so far have been significantly younger than me and the commentators thought I would not be able to keep up. But ironically my last fight was against a 19 yr old and while I did not feel tired at all at the end, she was noticeably tired and breathing heavy. I will share this video with my coach (we both love your videos btw) and we will make the necessary adjustments for my next fight which is on April 1st. Thanks Gabriel! 🥊😉

@tchaliz4925 9 месяцев назад

Hi, I just read your comment about eating punches, I had the same approach when I was still surfing, ans paied the high price, went in on a wild day too wild for my level, got out with a broken vertebra...when I came back I had my best surfing days because I became more patient and technical, but the harm was done and eventually I had to give up surf. Sad but I learned that as we get older we tend to be tough on ourselves...not necessarly good. Be carefull my friend, life is long.

@@GabrielVargaOfficial A lot of information that you share is stuff we've heard from friends or coaches or thought of ourselves, but we don't know how to pick apart the good stuff. Hearing it from you (considering your experience, success, and technical proficiency) helps us to focus in on a smaller set of more attainable goals. It's hard to even measure how helpful that is - invaluable.

@aldavedesierdo42 Год назад

Eyes is important. I'm only a hobbyist training kickboxing for fun and fitness alone for 8months now and I think my form and technique is good but when it comes to actual sparring, I often get caught flinching and poor counters on my part. Definitely gonna spar more with others in the gym despite it costs so much for me I'm still a student.

@aryawidya5149 Год назад

Hi Gabriel, do you have any videos on how to pace yourself in sparring/fighting? Like how much % power early on etc.

@chadwithautism Год назад

What did you do or didn't do well during sparring? From there, just sit down and think about your set ups. How would you approach the fight long/ mid/ short range? You can work the reflexes in tandem but it helps to sequence your thoughts with the abovementioned as a means to accelerate your improvement. If you've come to a point where you're almost always doing relatively well in sparring, I find that it helps to fight in a way that you aren't used to fighting, and even if you don't do as well, do your best to understand the timing for that. Bit by bit you'll start to understand rhythm better.

@twistedcoffee1187 Год назад

Everytime I underestimate how much my eyesight utilisation contribute to my sparring performance. As I focus on being crisp, or learning new techniques such as spinning kick, thinking of composing effective combinations, I just look at the point I hit, which lead me to get hit harder.

Hi Gabriel, I don't know if you will read this, but can you do video over social dynamics in a fighting gym? I been nice to everyone as much as possible and say hello since I join this fighting gym.but overtime I realise some people will always try to avoid me in drills or even saying hello. Also I am passionate about Muay Thai and I follow whatever my coach tell me to do to the letter, however sometime I do put my own spin and move around to keep it fun. But one of the coach say I don't listen or follow instructions when he was giving me some pad work. What he say really break me. Eversince then I feel that one practice coach also been avoiding me or try to coach me as least as possible. Is it just me been sensitive? Is there anyway I can do to have better relationship with people in the gym

For tip 2, when you’re mixing in hands and legs, punches and kicks, how do you deal with the range? Typically if you’re in punching range, you’re stuffing a lot of your own kicks, and when you’re in kicking range, there’s a chance you’re outside of punching range? How would this look in a practical fight as opposed to shadow boxing?
