Today we practised MT roundhouses and Boxing.
Muay Thai:
Practised 180 hip turns (leading with rear hip and as it passes your lead leg transferring weight to the ball on your supporting leg)
Then practised 360 hip turns (same technique only turning through 360 degrees).
Finally practised leg, mid and head kicks with blocks,
OBS: kicking with inside of shin is far less painful than turning foot all the way over. this is likely because you are landing on the larger tibia bone.
Boxing:
did lots of sparring drill specifically 4 shot drill then reducing it down to 1 shot each. this was great for working and emphasising fundamentals. 1. Looking at chin. 2. getting eye level (or lower) and 3. getting shoulders through on punches. the 4 shot drill is great for working your own combos and defending a plethora of shots. 1 shot drill is great sharpening shoulders and reactions as it is so unforgiving.
Then we sparred the fundamentals (no centre line strategy). 1. Looking at chin. 2. getting eye level (or lower) and 3. getting shoulders through on punches.
OBS: when only sparring fundamentals the only way to get a shot through is to either be more fundamentally correct than your opponent or throw multiple shots.
NB: Fundamental Sparring is working only 1. Looking at chin. 2. getting eye level (or lower) and 3. getting shoulders through on punches.(no centre line strategy).
