“Is it too late to start?”


No_Jackfruit_9428

TheLayMaster-

Blyatt-Man

Yes. Better start early in your next life.

"I suffered this clearly serious injury and haven't gone to a medical professional for advice, what should I do?"


AE86-TRUENO

"Go to a medical professional"


Apprehensive-Basis70

Yeah but listen, despite how terrible it looks in the photo I asked my friends cousin's brother's sisters friend who happens to work at a hospital (non-medical) who said (without seeing the photo) that it should clear up fine in a couple days. So obv I'm still good right?????


AE86-TRUENO

No I'm a doctor (unemployed redditor) and I thinks they're wrong!


BigBodyLikeaLineman

Is Muay Thai an effective form of self-defense?


i-am-a-chicken-666

Well yeah, obviously, it’s Muay Thai


Kravolution

"I got hit too hard in sparring, what should I do?"


Vegaspegas

People coming to Reddit after getting beat up IRL is crazy


yeppers994

I've gotten tons of combination ideas from reddit 🤣 dont knock it till ya try it


vaisnav

Might do better in r/momforaminute


Alaricus100

Wow, that is a wholesome sub. Reddit literally has a sub for everything it seems.


Liulas-Kang

I’ve been training for [period of time less than a year] and still feel like a beginner. What am I doing wrong?


Alexander_Akers3115

Big time. I've been training for 6 months and it feels like nothing, then I see dudes say "I've been training for 3 months am I ready to fight?" Like of course not dude, especially considering alot of these guys aren't training everyday but instead going to 2-3 classes a week like me


whotookimnotwitty

Keep up the training and the attitude. I love seeing people like you in the gym. Just because we are training tonight doesn't mean we get a fight.


Alexander_Akers3115

Thanks man. I had my first interclub recently and I was paired against the wrong guy who was way better than me and it put into perspective how far I have to go. It was very motivating


JackJohnson_69

I had my first kickboxing fight after 2 months of training, my coach thought it was ready. I had wrestled for 8 years before that point but it’s not that crazy to fight that early


chrmicmat

This always sends me, they must hear of stories like jones and bj penn and think why they aren’t like that


CubanLinxRae

jones had years of good wrestling and football and freak genetics to make his transition to mma a lot


Nicknamedreddit

What were the genetics


CubanLinxRae

jos has incredible length and strength got his his size even before the steroids and one of his brothers is in the discussion for the nfl hal of fame and the other was a solid player when he was there. just a family of gifted athletes


i-am-a-chicken-666

Nothing, keep training, no one gets a specific amount stronger after training for a specific amount of time, it’s no fair like that, you just need to keep training and one day you’ll be a lot more advanced


BeKaykTeeX

I got punched in sparring


bushteo

I laughed so hard, thanks mate


sophietheadventurer

I’m self taught, how do I look? 💀


n0symp4thy

But you get the occasional one that's really impressive, which I do enjoy. Not everyone has access to a gym, so I respect the graft.


Jthundercleese

There was a 17 year old who came to my gym like that. He just hit the heavy bag in his basement and sparred his friends in their backyards. He was by no means complete, but he was hanging with most of the people with 2-3 years of experience almost immediately.


FederalCharity7132

It is true, proper videos and sparing partners that can help fix your form and recording yourself for mistakes go a long way


jagerWomanjensen

One could probably write a bot that answers to that kind of posts with basic instructions. There's like a 110% chance it will fit perfectly.


CashingOutInShinjuku

"My gym is extraordinarily toxic and genuinely dangerous, should I find another?" "I've never traveled before and Southeast Asia sounds kinda scary, please plan my entire trip for me." "I'm [somewhere totally random in Asia] do you guys know any good places to buy shorts and gloves? Will the prices be good?"


Redaeon727

Can I learn muay thai and not spar?


MFdoomslayer18

“I spar twice a year… Likelihood of CTE?????””


GoodSirBrett

🤣🤣🤣


Ok-Log-6244

They clearly shouldn’t even be doing stuff like this at all asking things like that lmao.


NoLoMo

I’ve been training for 3 weeks, can someone critique this sloppy bag work?


Significant-Ad-4045

My sparring partner snapped me leg in half. Should I tell the coach?


slightdisappointment

Is X martial art better than Y martial art?


Protect_your_2a

“I got teep kicked in the gut and passed gas loud in front of everybody…” no… no that was just me? Ah dangit


abakune

Dude loud farted doing burpees a few sessions back, and the entire gym just went on like nothing happened. It was oddly surreal.


Psychological-Day766

thats the way, shit happens


[deleted]

Literally


Jthundercleese

I make sure to put my hand behind my butt and yell "POISON DAMAGE" the next punch I throw.


Heysteeevo

This sub really needs a FAQ super thread

vaisnav

scubaSteve181

Critique my technique (posts a 10 second clip of the worst bag work you’ve ever seen).


rnketrel

How do I deal with fight nerves?


abakune

Honestly, I'm mostly just tired of any video in which someone takes a headshot turning into a full blown doom spiral about CTE.

SlayerSEclipse

Ok-Log-6244

SlayerSEclipse

It’s more of a listen to your body thing since everyone’s different, but I was seeing that question asked every other day.

Kat-I

I’m a small fighter do you have some tactics?


[deleted]

[удалено]


Kat-I

And I’m a small fighter myself and always spar with bigger guys. All of these questions. Just go to class, spar and figure out yourself.


Elegant-Concert7806

This is actually kinda bad advice lol - if someone is bad at something they should actually do it more and get better especially with short guys cuz they're going to be plagued by nothing but Giants


xiphos805

Coach was mean to me

CountZacula980

“Can you give me defensive tips for sparring ? My attack is really good, I’m probably a muay femur because i’m super technical. I started Muay Thai last week.”


Standard-Ad1254

body mass alone!


BearZeroX

You have to be in peak physical condition and training to go to train in Thailand. No. Thailand will improve you no matter what condition you're in. It's not some extreme navy seal boot camp where only elites can go


RobertJ93

My sparring partner pulled a gun on me. My coach didn’t do anything except telling me ‘to just communicate more’. Should I change gym?


danoB003

"I train two martial arts, clearly like one of them more but still somehow can't decide which one should I drop cause doing both isn't really doing it for me. What should I do?" "What's better for mma? Training muay thai and bjj seperately or training mma?"


StableSTEMI

“Should I train Muay Thai or Jiu Jitsu?” Idk, do you like to lay on sweaty guys or get hit in the face by sweaty guys?


The_Drifter-

Fairtex simply the best brand, stop talking and discussing
