About Muay Thai Kick Boxing :

Muay Thai Kick Boxing is a martial art and combat sport that uses stand-up striking along with various clinching techniques. This discipline is known as the "art of eight limbs," as it is characterised by the combined use of fists, elbows, knees, and shins.

The punch techniques in muay Thai were originally quite limited, being crosses and a long (or lazy) circular strike made with a straight (but not locked) arm and landing with the heel of the palm. Cross-fertilisation with Western boxing and Western martial arts mean the full range of western boxing punches are now used: lead jab, straight/cross, hook, uppercut, shovel and corkscrew punches, and overhands, as well as hammer fists and back fists.

As a tactic, body punching is used less in muay Thai than most other striking combat sports to avoid exposing the attacker's head to counter strikes from knees or elbows. To utilize the range of targeting points, in keeping with the centre line theory, the fighter can use either the Western or Thai stance which allows for either long range or short range attacks to be undertaken effectively without compromising guard.

Being a mix of both aerobic and anaerobic workout, Muay Thai is a type of martial art that offers both strength and endurance. On the one hand, you undergo running, jumping rope and shadowboxing, which gives you a dash of aerobic activity. Whereas on the other hand, you train yourself for anaerobic exercises like punching, kicking, elbowing, and kneeing. The aerobic element helps increase the overall cardiovascular performance of the body. This develops stamina and strength that is required for the optimal functioning of the human body.

Regular exercising is recommended for those facing stress and depression in their lives. As mentioned above that Muay Thai is a perfect combination of both aerobic and anaerobic exercises, it ultimately helps improve your body’s metabolism and uplift your spirit to make you feel good.
