The Perfect Right Kick!!
The Muay Thai body kick is one of the toughest techniques to master. The reasoning behind that is this effective weapon incorporates the whole body into the motion, one mistake can throw off the technique 💯
In this video @roy_the_rebel breaks down this technique with @ciancuzz into 3 Steps to demonstrate how he’s effectively used this weapon to bring success in his career 🥇
✅ Step 1: Step across the body
✅ Step 2: Pivot on foot after stepping across to generate power
✅ Step 3: Roll hips over as you pivot on foot

💥Explosive Straight Punches💥
In combat sports when punching a target we contract our muscles 💪🏻 in two ways ECCENTRIC vs CONCENTRIC
Concentric movements shorten the muscles that accelerate the arm forward
Eccentric movements lengthen the muscle under the tension when making contact
The Landmine Punch Drill
✅ Is an exercise that replicates a sport specific movement
✅ Training for greater eccentric utilisation can create more powerful explosive punching
✅ Increases eccentric utilisation which can assist in explosive counter punching
For this drill we do 3 to 5 reps for 3 to 5 sets 🙏
🔥 Powerful Muay Thai Step up Knee Technique 🔥
@cianlougheed_ has one of the most devastating step up knees in Aussie Muay Thai 🙏🏻 In this vid @roy_the_rebel breaks down the technique of this effective strike used by The Pit fight team
Key Tips:
✅ Close Distance with Faint or Strike
✅ Step Forward at same time
✅ Throw knee aim for torso region
✅ As knee is thrown make sure toes are pointed down and hips are thrusted forward
✅ Extend guard out to protect against counter strike
🔥 Real Agility 🔥
During competition athletes have to react to live stimulus 💯 They have to change their body position and movements based on what is happening around them, in real time. At no point does an opponent tell you what they are going to do next and give you time to prepare for it. How good would that be if they did 🤣
Endless pre programmed drills doesn’t prepare you for real life competition so why train that way? 😳
Here’s some reactive agility drilling done ✅ at Synergy with our athletes
