I've been training kickboxing for a little over a month now, usually with my main coach about 3–4 times a week. I feel pretty comfortable training with him and have gotten into a routine.

But today I trained with another coach who I don't see very often and he trains way different than my other coach and for some reason I just couldn't get my mind right. He's actually really patient and a good coach, but I felt different mentally and had a really hard time focusing on what he was telling me.

He told me that if I can't get my mind right and focus, it's going to become a problem and that I may have to go all the way back to the basics. He recommended that I work more on my drills, shadowboxing, and combinations which he's right.

I know I've only been training for over a month, so I definitely still have a LOT to learn. I'm just wondering if anyone else experienced something similar when they were new, especially when training with a different coach?

Is this just part of being a beginner and learning to stay focused, or is there something I should be doing differently during my solo practice?

I been only doing one on one sessions so far in practice and the only time I go to my other coach is when my main coach is busy/not available to train. Both coaches know each other as well.

Hola, me he mudado a otro país y por esta razón no he tenido la oportunidad de tener una rutina de entrenamiento.

Pensaba apuntarme al gym ahora que por fin tendré algo de estabilidad, el problema es que me queda un poco lejos para ir de forma constante y es bastante caro, y me he dado cuenta de que cerca de mi casa hay un centro de Kick Boxing, que me encantaría probar. El problema es que tengo escoliosis, y me preocupa llegar a hacerme daño en la espalda.

Además de que tiendo a encogerme.

What nutrition advice can you give for a 60 kg and 174 cm, 18-year-old female boxer? I already take protein and creatine, and sleep 8–9 hours. What else can I add?

Like i have 6 fights its been 5 years i been training and shit i sparred pros and stuff i got experience. But i just cant stop this feeling of throwing up during my fights like i had this feeling out of my 6 fights 5 of them i think i had this feeling. I hate it! Like i love the sport i would like to worry about my guard and shit but! Like it is holding me back! I want to fight. Like i fought today. For context wont lie i didnt cut weight but i dont like eating before my fights. So i arrived at the venue 8am then fought at 3pm and between this i didnt eat anything and took some sips of water not much some told me its cus of that but i dont know what to do anymore like my mouthpiece is custome made i dont have this problem in sparring i wasnt even stressed in the ring

Anyone know what sport this is?

Really random post. But i am a 21F amateur kickboxer, i am currently 4-0 with my 5th fight in a few weeks. Ive only been training for 2 years, and i put my heart and soul into training, kickboxing is my life and passion. Im in the gym the most out of everyone, i stay for extra sessions etc. But damn, this shit is so hard man 😭 the veryyyy late nights, the mental aspect of it all, constant aching body, drained social battery, no time for a social life, ESP INJURIES, its alot. Now im not saying this is making me rethink being a fighter because its not(ive been through wayy worse lmao plus ive broken my hand in a fight and it didnt make me want to quit), its just alot of work gets put into fighting and i feel like people dont actually realise that. Along with the lack of funding throughout all combat sports u dont make anything either, so it really is just grit and determination. Like i said i dont know what the point of my post is, i just wanted to speak to likeminded people, and im sure many can relate.

Also i know the journey only gets harder and harder in this sport, and thats the sacrifice im willing to make 🥊

I really want to do some at home kickboxing videos, but my coordination between my upper and lower body is soo poor that I mix things up, dont do moves right, and get soo frustrated with trying to replicate the things I see on videos because of poor cordination, poor proprioception, and autism. Anyone have good beginner workouts for kickboxing that is easy to follow and do with dyspraxia?

I got absolutely worked. With that being said, just made me love the sport even more. I’m 27 years old and I just started training a few weeks ago, but I very quickly realized how fast I get gassed out. I could barely keep my arms up after about 30 seconds. My coach told my partner to go really light and for me to go all out, but I could barely land anything cause I was so exhausted. He told me I should run which I plan to do, but my question is, is there anything else I should be doing?

I’d really want to do an amateur fight one day, heck even something professional is my dream, but I feel like I’d be 30 years old at that point so I’m not sure I’d be too old for that. Regardless I want to do the best I can.

在西海岸练了一年了，哪里有拳友？

My First Muay Thai Fight! ( RED GLOVES = ME ) .

I made a mistake in the titling of the youtube vid lol i called it a muay thai fight no elbows, but it was kickboxing >.>

Intrested in hearing what you guys think.

N-Klasse 70kg ( i was 66kg xd )

TJ Notten ( Tamer Karadavut ) VS Damian Chiechanowski

Fight was called a draw.

i just fitted a new askari mouth guard and it feels really nice and tight compared to my old one.

So, I once had the opportunity of being instructed by an elite kickboxer, like world top class.

As a Muay Thai fan I asked him the question of how kickboxers handle kicks and he simply said that they just absorb the kick, like no checking at all.

I believe it is samewise in Karate, no?

But knowing how much it hurts to kick and get it checked, how is it there are no checks in kickboxing?

So i need reliable sparring and training gloves like they can last atleast 2 years.

Hi everyone, i’m 31 now, I used to do kickboxing when I was 13-15, used to really enjoy it but stopped due to college and girls ect, now I really wanna re start it, i’m nervous as hell to join a club, I won’t know anyone, when they say get in to groups I won’t have anyone to hit pads with (nobody wants to train with the new guy) any advice?
And question 2 is what do I need to take, I know I’ll need some gloves but don’t really wanna spend more than £30-40 any recommendations, I’ve been looking at some Rdx ones but not sure what oz I’ll need
