2. Training Plans for Beginners
Beginners in Muay Thai rst learn the basic attacking
techniques and a selection of defense and counter
techniques. It is necessary to practice Muay Thai at least
twice a week to see progressive improvement. If your goal
is signi cant improvement in your tness, you should add
a weekly training session for power and stamina.
Practicing twice a week for at least six months, you should
be able to perform the basic techniques correctly.
Continue perfecting the techniques in your repertoire
more and more, and incorporate more demanding
techniques, and you will become an expert in Muay Thai
in the course of the coming years. To participate in
competitive ghts, however, two training sessions per
week won’t be enough, especially if you don’t do any
additional power and stamina exercises.
