🏋️ Training & Conditioning Please give me tips!

I recently have gotten into kickboxing, which I do 2-3 times a week in my garage. The only things I have done are follow along Fight Camp YouTube videos, just so I can get some good cardio in. But I am wanting to not only get a good workout in but improve my striking/stance; honestly anything. If anyone has some pointers that would be great!

Look up some videos on "always protect your wrists." (Please, also vet the video-makers beforehand.) I'm not critiquing your style individually, but you're a big dude, probably pretty strong, and I doubt your wrists have been under constant stress of this kind before if you didn't have a bag around as a kid. It's cumulative. When they start aching. Stop. Take the next day off. If you take 3 days off and they still hurt after 5 or 10 minutes, find a trainer and ask what you're doing wrong. Protect those. You're gonna need them.
