Skills:
Muay Thai is a skill-based sport. If you focus on the techniques you are being taught and drill them with focus and patience, you will naturally get more conditioned as you practice, allowing you to do things faster and harder.
Spirit:
“I fear not the man who has practiced 10,000 kicks once, but I fear the man who has practiced one kick 10,000 times” Bruce Lee.
While skills and endurance are both important, attitude is key. No matter what fitness level you start at, just keep a positive attitude and open mind. Improvement will come with time so long as you are patient.
Endurance:
To get better at Muay Thai, endurance is a must. Cardio ensures that your body can always meet the energy demands needed to succeed in the ring or even just in sparring class. And trust us, once you touch gloves with your opponent, the last thing you want to do is worry about your endurance!
