18.04.2023 Hour three of teacher consultant course in Muay Thai cross-training got further into the specifics of the sport's fundamental aspects. For a while we worked at maintaining the most common ranges of Muay Thai. Nak muays generally consent to do their out-boxing at a much closer range than other stand-up stand-up fighters. This is probably why pull-back evasions are more common in their sport. The closer ranges allows for the use of all so-called "8 limbs". For example, a fighter needs to be able to quickly transition between a long range weapon like a teep to a clinching elbow. Adjustments in micro-ranges are far more subtle than you might typically find in boxing or non-Southeast Asian kickboxing sports. We trained through all the main defences - shield blocks, covers, elbow blocks and shin-checks - whilst walking down an opponent and deflecting teeps. The only strikes used in this lesson were the teep for distance adjustment and range gauging, and jab, straight and lead hook. Our focus was mainly on the lead hook where I taught the step-out hook. https://clubbchimera.com/services/
