First off when you train they lock the door. I dunno why i think its so no one can disturb class. Oh yeah they're are no places to sit. You can't walk-in and watch classes, you have to make an appointment..after you do that you can't watch the class, they only give youa basic run in of it.

 

All we did today was drill jabs. Now...this isn't my first muay thai session, I've been in it for a while.....anyway we did jabs for 1 hour and 45 mins pretty stupid. There's other techniques to drill with..and he only makes you train one side...this is dumb because instead of balancing out both sides, you only make one side stronger while the other side becomes weaker and weaker.

 

They have some champs and are a part of the IKF but still it just doesn't feel right.

 

Oh yeah this fool made me do 100 push-ups because I didn't wear his official "Cooper's Muay thai Gym" T-shirt that I paid for with my hard earned money! I mean damn it didn't say in the agreement it was required to wear the gym's official t-shirt. Only handwraps, mouthguard and a cup. As long as you wore loose and comfortable clothing you were set to go but noooooo. I wear a Nike T-shirt and its the biggest crime in the world. I can see if he gave me the shirt...but dude I'd PAID for the damn shirt...its a shirt not a gi.....its nothing to be doing a 100 push-ups after a very long hard boring training session......I over trained my left side today because of this.. and he knows I just recovered from a nerve injury so over training is very stupid, the body needs to rest and only gets stronger when it rest.

 

I could do 100 push-ups if I was fresh but............he made me do it when I was extremely tired and in pain because of my neck......I almost threw up...I'm thinking about leaving this gym and go take up some good reality fighting Gung fu or Japanese Ju-jitsu.

That's the place I go to. The instructor is a little chubby though.-_^

If you're unhappy about where you are then feel free to try something else. It seems as if you gave that gym more than enough chances to make up your mind. I wish you luck with whatever decision you make.

If the gym doesn't fit, try another gym, if the style doesn't fit, try another martial art. You won't keep it up if you don't feel it is worthwhile.

sounds like a crappy gym for what you describe..but it's hard to tell without being there..

Sounds like the typical MA jock mentality. Go somewhere else if your not happy. I personally don't have time for that kind of stuff and I don't think you do either. Go study Jujitsu or Gung Fu, you must be interested in these styles if you mentioned them. Jujitsu is really cool and you learn weapons too. Good luck.

Don't necessarily give up on Muay Thai. It should be tough, but it's just stupid to be pushing new students to the point at which they could be injured.

That is how we weed out people who we do not want in there and aslo only the really die hards will continue.

 

You'll also get rid of the intelligent people who realize that a professional atmosphere is a better place to learn.
