TakeItEasy Posted December 23, 2003 Posted December 23, 2003 Just wondering what the injury risks were of regular muay thai training, sparring, etc. (not tournament fighting).
cross Posted December 24, 2003 Posted December 24, 2003 Depends on the school, but usually the worst would be some bumps and bruises, sore thighs from getting kicked and sore shins from conditioning.
SevenStar Posted December 25, 2003 Posted December 25, 2003 also concussions are a possibility. a broken finger if you punch improperly - the "boxer's break" which is typically stemmed from a horizontal fisted hook punch that connects with the pinky. THROW YOUR HOOK PUNCHES WITH A VERTICAL FIST!!, broken noses, broken ribs... there are alo t of possibilites, and the things I've listed are all things that I've seen happen - that just comes with the territory. More often than not, this will not happen to you, but the risk is there.
