(video above) I feel loose, but explosive. My weight shifts forward and back without hesitation, there are a few gaps in the fluidity of movement, the way an engine might get an air bubble and hiccup, but I feel good. My fists, knees, and shins are making nice popping sounds against the leather t...

Lots of people ask me how I can fight so often, for so long, and my approach is pretty simple. I feel like I'm Saitama One Punch Man telling about my sit ups and push ups. But it's mostly a combination of continuous movement, developing pain tolerance, heat, hangs and squats. You train to be inju...

Welcome to Episode 10 of Muay Thai Bones. Lots of deep level discussion of Muay Thai, see below all the topics covered.

Kevin and I rolled slowly down ever-narrowing streets, looking for Kru Mou's house, where he teaches Muay Thai to his students. We got to a bend that we weren't entirely sure we could fit down in the rental car, so I got out and walked, following the little blue dot on my GPS as it crawled toward...

This is what I've been working on lately. As many of you know Dieselnoi, the King of Knees, has been at my gym Petchrungruang weekly, advising and mentoring everyone. He's there through my patron support through a project we are calling Legends in Residence. One of the awesome things of having hi...

This is something I've been thinking a lot about lately, and working on, maybe you'll find it something you want to look into improving too. It started to become a big focus after my session with Namsaknoi (linked below), and then came into greater focus when training with Arjan Net, and with Die...

Bank, or Tongchai as he's called when he's fighting, stepped over the ropes into the ring and the blue satin robe around him slithered in after him. His gaze was on the floor, but his eyes didn't seem to register anything. He was lost inside himself; the fabric against his skin might as well have...

We've always wanted to make an audio version of new Muay Thai Library sessions because we know that sitting down to watch for an hour every two weeks is sometimes more than that a schedule can handle. We put up a few audio tracks on soundcloud a while back and lots of people wrote to say how much...

The inspiration of the vlog was the legend Dieselnoi telling our Lumpinee fighter that he made an error in backing up aft...

One of the great things about the Muay Thai Library, for me, is that it's an endeavor to preserve and archive the Muay of Thailand in all its variety. Golden Age Legends and great fighters of now are obvious gems, but you can find some truly incredible Muay Thai among the trainers who work, day i...

We're at Lumpinee Stadium. Bank is tipping his head forward, his gaze on the floor, as he listens to Dieselnoi's instructions on how he should approach his fight.

We had Dieselnoi come to Petchrungruang for a month between February and March.

Many of you have asked for this, now all of you have it: Namsaknoi is in the Muay Thai Library.

When I explained to ...

The driving force behind training with the best fighters, legends, and krus from all over Thailand is this understanding that something is being lost from the Muay Thai of Thailand.
