When you said you started at 27 smoked a pack a day and drank like a fish it really alleviated all the doubt I had joining the gym. I’ve gone to boxing gyms at different points of my life but was never consistent with it for a sustained period, I just moved to the city and there’s a Thai boxing gym 15 minutes walking from me I want to make the sacrifice to fulfill my lifelong ambition of being a martial artist. My only other concern is I work a very physically demanding job and I’m worried of performance decline at my work

When I first started, i was working a physically demanding job as well, as another viewer suggested, start slow, with a few classes a week, making sure you rest well every night. For me, every time I had the opportunity to train gave me a jolt of adrenaline, regardless of how tired I was during the day, and helped me sleep easier as well. Fully support you pursuing your lifelong ambition of being a martial artist, the physical part is just one piece of the journey. Best of luck!

@@JeffPenaify Just over a month. I hadn't done a lot of real physical exercise over the last year so I knew I had to start slow. I did 3 classes on my first week, and each week I've made sure that I attend one more than the previous. So at this point I'm doing two kickboxing classes, a muay thai class, and four BJJ classes a week (in the gi). This week I'm going to start transitioning into no-gi stuff, and maybe try out the TKD class that my gym offers. Not to be an armchair philosopher or any bullshit like that, but just remember: whatever you decide to do, it's a personal journey.

That’s good to know. I’m 35 was contemplating Muay Thai. They have a gym next to my home. There is the beginner class where they teach basics and bag work. Sparring is reserved for specialists. If I can learn proper form to punch bags and do kicks that’ll do. Also I heard Muay Thai is great for cutting. Especially last 10 lbs to reach 10 percent body fat, fast punches and kicks should activate type 2 muscle fibers too. Btw I’m motivated by you, you started at 40. I used to think 35 was too late for me. My dilemma is I’ll have to stop weight training to take up Muay Thai for 1.5 years to learn the basics.

That happened to me a couple of times. Also don't daydream when you're pad holding or you get kicked in the face. That happened to me a lot too.

474 lbs? It might be too late for you, but good luck.

26 year old here and here is my warning to anyone before doing it 1-Fix your cardio and basic fitness levels before starting 2-Fix your flexibility to at least be mediocore before starting 3-Get your schedule in order if you dont do these 3 things before starting you will find your first month doing it hell, and a total waste of money as you ask yourself "why am i paying over a hundred bucks a month for a class i barely go to, feel like shit while doing and dont have time for" You wanna get to a mediocore athletic level of fitness in the first two points I met, for if you dont do this you wont be able to do any of the tricks they are teaching you, you will have no power when you do do them, and even if you can, you will get gassed out in the first ten minutes of class if you dont fix your cardio. Lastly get your schedule in order, if you are working 40 hour weeks, and trying to add in Martial arts, something in your schedule is going to be bumped out, figure out what matters the least to you and figure out what you can kick out without hurting your quality of life before doing martial arts. many people under estimate how time consuming it is and thus burn out quickly

I started sparring since the first day. It's definitely the thing that gave me more confidence and mind power. Being kicked in the ass first days makes you more humble and it helps you to use your head, analyse the others and know yourself better while youre fighting much sooner. I've been hurt specially with low trained opponents. I think sparring every session make you improve really much faster. Also I feel that because of it, enviroment is much more respectful this way.

cool tips. i am about to go to my first muay thai class and can't wait!

Muay Thai immediately took my eye and I'm currently looking for a club in my surrounding + my job is not too stressful and physically demanding, so I see Muay Thai as a perfect solution for that excessive energy and to learn something new and useful.

I remember my first time. I was living in India, and I just walked in for a class. Guys were super helpful, but knowledgeable. There was a little bit of a language barrier but I was able to learn a lot from them. Definitely miss it and looking to get started back up now that I’m back in America

Since trying it out, I've: -Lost weight -Been less stressed -Fixed my sleep schedule -Greatly reduced video games and other distractions from my life -Found a career path I'm in the middle of pursuing, self taught The career I'm pursuing is computer programming, something that the damage to wrists, hands, and head from Muai Thai could put at risk. But I'm still grateful that I gave it a good, thorough try because it brought a lot of benefits to my life. Not to make it sound so black and white, but before Muay Thai, I had nothing of importance going on in my life, and afterwards, it guided me to where I'm at now, which is a much better place. Definitely consider the damage to your body and brain. Once I'm off of a 40hr/week work +40hr/week study schedule, I'm considering transitioning from regular exercise to BJJ

So I recently tried out Muay thai at a local gym and i fell in love. With that being said I will speak on the question of " Contact with others?" my first class was a lil over load for me because even though it is a beginners class it was full immersion into partnering up with someone that had more experience then you. My first partner has been training for 2 years already and here I am green to muay thai and trying to do 4,5,6 combo drills while trying to learn proper technique. I wish there was a bag class or at least a little more structured lesson for those who are just starting. With that being said don't let it freak you out just thought someone would like to hear my experience. I am going to try out another gym and see which one I like.

I'm currently 52 and started with Muay Thai after some boxing experience. It's true that is never too late, I feel amazing, very fit and younger...

i have had the idea of picking up Muay Thai for a while now and decided to commit to it recently. Had about 3 sessions/classes so far and it is pretty good. I am on the obese side and hope I can get back in shape and know how to fight(to defend myself). So far I am still sore all over, and hopefully i'll get used to it later on.

Hard work evens the playing field quite a bit!

Excellent video my friend. My first class is this Thursday!

i'm 18 and suuuper out of shape, but i just joined a gym and am losing weight/getting my strength back. after graduating, this summer, i wanna take up muay thai. this really inspired me a lot, i hope i find a gym where people take me seriously and properly accept me and my lack of experience :)

I just started Kudo (an MMA budo) yesterday. I'm 30 years old, very unathletic and have never done any martial arts. Today, I'm sore as hell, but it was great and I can't wait to go again. 2 things to think about: I wish I had practiced some crunches and push-ups at least a week before I went in. And buying all the gear is pretty expensive, so be prepared for that. EDIT: as for your 4th question, I did actually spar on my first day! Both with boxing gloves and no gloves (only body shots). My sensei told the others to go real easy on me but that I could go all out and it was super fun.

Love the channel

I'm glad this was the first video I watch regarding Muay Thai training preparation.

I'm 30 and will do a first tryout session today. I currently weigh 107kg and want to improve my overall quality of life. Let's see how it goes!

How was it? I'm 30 and just started too, was fun and welcoming! Realised how unfit i've become though, but here's to better days!

I just signed up for some kickboxing/mma classes, thank you! Man, I've always wanted to go when I was a kid and begged my parents. Now I'm older and get to decide my own shit, I am honestly afraid it'd be embarrassing to pull up and have 0 experience at 22. But this video sparked that feeling of wanting to do martial arts and has taken my doubts away.

I'm 62 and just starting. It is tough but so is being alive. Best to keep doing some intense exercise for as long as you can. I lift but that doesn't tick the power/ endurance box.

That's awesome, we're glad the video helped. Best of luck and happy training!

great video 👍🏾

This vid was definitely helpful. I feel less intimidated and I think I’ll give muy Thai a shot.

Taking my first kickboxing class in roughly two weeks, super nervous but I also can't wait

Man I really need to join, I did karate for years , had a fair few tournaments but Muay Thai is different game , too nervous to get started . This video has given me a push

I'm almost 24 and also a heavy smoker with bad eating habits. I felt like i would need to train at least a few months to go there. Now after you said this, i immediately sent a request to the next gym here.

I am kick-boxer turning to Muay Thai in shape but definetly still challenging and I only started and already see a difference

As someone who deals with anxiety, i’m honestly more scared of just walking in there than I am getting punched in the face 😂 but this video helped my nerves a lot , so thank you !!!

i’m turning 36 next month and just checked into a hotel next to a muay thai gym in bangkok to start my 2nd week of training in my life. I have trained bjj on and off for the last few years and have remained pretty active. But i am diving in head first with the muay thai.

I’m 18 and I start today , I’m in pretty good shape and did football and track so hopefully my cardio holds up

I’m starting next week muy Thai I’m 27 thank you very much this help a lot

Won a subscribe ❤️ Straight facts

thank you

I am 46 and just started at a UFC club. I am in good shape (I am a rock climber) and really wanted a good stand up game. Holy shiiiite! My body was not prepared for these movements. The DOMS, bro. Big time. I will hit may 4th class today. It's St. Patty's Day but it is also Muay Thai Day!! So fight....then beers. Greetings from Northern Cali.

Great video 👍

I started martial arts at 42! This is so cool 🔥😀, you can do it too! 💪

Just started my journey a week ago! Wish me luck!

I’m 19 and I’m looking for my purpose. My grandmother died and I dedicated most of my time to helping her out. But one thing that’s just been calling to me is training, I have a gym down the street from me and I’m gonna start. I just wanna clear my head and find peace. I’m excited to start

you literally answered all the questions i had !! thank you!

am 64 and just joined a gym and getting private coaching 4-5x a week, fantastic gains daily with practice

Good stuff!
