Heatrick Heavy Hitters – Muay Thai Performance

Join the Muay IQ waitlist here: heatrick.com/muay-iq-waitlistYour technique is sharp on the pads and disappears in sparring. The fix usually isn't more training. It's training the right thing, in the right state.This is how I plan Muay Thai skill training. One principle runs the whole thing... What you learn fresh in one block, you test tired in the next.It moves through three levels, technique, tactics, then strategy, and every session gets two target numbers, so you know whether each half actually did its job.0:00 Your Skill Training Has No Plan0:55 Skill Is Three Things, Not One1:50 Same Kick, Different Result3:19 Fresh Builds It, Tired Tests It4:06 The One Principle That Runs the Cycle5:03 Two Numbers for Every Session7:06 The 14-Week Cycle Block by Block13:43 The Ten-Second Session Check14:59 What This Is (and What It Isn't Yet)15:41 What the Cycle Can't Tell YouThe cycle tells you how to run your skill training.
