1. My buddy just got his certification as an instructor (Kru) in Muay Thai last Sunday and it was pretty intense! I was unable to attend but I watched the tape and it looked like fun! My buddy had blood all down his chest but he did really well.
2. I'm going for my first shorts certification next Thursday! woohoo I'm pretty excited. I've been training for it and it's pretty draining.. the main part of the test is 2 three minute rounds were I have to kick the pads 50 times and knee them 25 times in each round...while the holders kick me in the legs and torso. FUN!
3. I'm going to train in Thailand! Next January I'm going to Thailand with several members of the Thai boxing club I belong to. We will be staying a month and part of that time will be at a Fairtex Muay Thai training camp. I better be in great shape before I go... the very first thing you do at 7 am before even eating is a 16 km run, and thats the warm up!
3 kool things!
