Yea, me too. It totally throws me off my routine and makes me feel like I'm slacking. Nice avatar, btw.

This content is protected - Muay Thai Class: 10 Minutes of Warm Up Conditioning exercises. 20 Rounds of Sparring. Went at around 80% power. We weren't allowed to elbow to the face but we were allowed to do everything else (hit to the head, low kicks, clinch and knees, etc). Rotated sparring partners each round. Overall, it was a good session but I'm not entirely happy with my performance. Looking back on it, I think I could've been a bit more aggressive and should've tried to incorporate some of the counters that we worked on in class the past couple of weeks. Anyways, I was able to use this time to work on conditioning my shins and legs to my opponent's leg kicks (my left shin is ****ing bruised as hell). 10 Minutes of Cool Down Conditioning exercises.
Yea, we do this type of session at least once a month and it's absolutely gruelling. Even though we get 3 min breaks after every 5 rounds, it definitely takes a toll on the body. By the time we get to the later rounds, each round mostly consists of clinch+knees, lots of body hooks, and alot of neck-wrestling. The positive side of this is that it helps improve all aspects of the Muay Thai game. In the early rounds we're told to work on combinations. In the middle rounds we get to focus more on kicks and counter striking. And in the later rounds we get to work on clinchwork. The traditional Muay Thai fighters in Thailand do this type of sparring all the time. Its really one of the best ways to condition a fighter's shins so that they learn to properly absorb blows from leg kicks. I'm just glad that it only happens once a month.

yeah, lol, I usually do around 3 rounds. This was just a once in a while exercise our coach likes to do. On a side note, I woke up today and my shins were finally back to their normal color (thank god). I wish I had taken a pic of how they looked after I was done on Tuesday (looked blue/black. couldnt walk right for the past day or two). :-(
