ABOUT LEGACY
Legacy is where you
  • learn to defend yourself with practical Muay Thai techniques using elbows, punches, kicks and knees.
  • develop discipline, character, and self-respect.
  • can test your courage by competing in sanctioned bouts.
  • shed some pounds and reveal that long awaited 6 pack!
"Classes are as hard or as fun as you make it!  No one is going to push you to compete or force you to go to every class.   Of course I will try to bring the best out of every student while holding firm to the belief that ultimately each person is responsible for their own choices."  -Bao

A typical class
  • Skipping or jogging for warm-up.
  • Individual body based exercises such as pushups, sit-ups, jumping jacks, burpees, etc. These exercises are done one after another to promote and develop cardio vascular strength.
  •  Technical training.  Emphasis here will be on proper form and posture while punching and kicking, sufficient breathing, and a proper mind state throughout.
  •  Members will pair up. One will hold pads (thick protective cushions wrapped around their arms), the other will wear 14-16 oz gloves (provided by gym or you can bring your own). Here students will train the techniques taught in the technical training phase on pads held by their partners.
  •  Stretching and breathing drills to finish off.
What to bring
  • t-shirt and shorts (training will be conducted on bare feet).
  • a hydrating liquid.
  • your own additional training equipment (we also provide the necessary equipments for classes if you don't have any)
  • the right mindset for some serious training!

Happy Holidays!

Watch your drinking and drive safely! Have a safe and happy holidays! O, and remember watch out for predator #1 and predator #2.



---------------------Predator #1 ------------------------Predator #2---------------------
...only in Thailand


Once sober, have a look at the articles below:

A very touching and in-depth article on Ali vs Frazier #3, Thrilla in Manila:

Looking Back at the Thrilla in Manila
by Ian Stewart Palmer


And yet another:

The Fight of the Century

Blurp from The Fight of the Century Article, by Ian Stewart Palmer:

"After years of putting up with his brash and arrogant antics and refusing to fight for his country, the majority of the American public suddenly reacted like the parents of a runaway child as they broke down and cried, and opened their arms to embrace Ali, and they’ve never let go since. All was forgiven."

Now I wonder if this will be the case with Mayweather. Especially if he beats the Pac Man. If.

Muhammad Ali

Many, if not all, of us have heard of the legendary Muhammad Ali. His blinding hands, fleeting footwork, and heart of a true warrior. But how many of yall have actually seen him in action? I for one did not until recently. I was impressed.

Manny Pacquiao vs Miguel Cotto Post Fight Press Conference

This press conference is definitely worth your while!



"NOBODY WANTS TO FIGHT ME!" - boo hoo Sugar Shane Mosley

"I...I sorry master." -lol at PACMAN

In less extravagant news, poum chok muay yi paet khrap. Which means, I fight on the 18th.

In need of motivation.

9:24pm - I just got back from work and contemplating on whether to or not to train. Considering it's pretty late combined with the horrendous condition outside, I am going to have to find some serious motivation to get me off my ass.

9:30pm - Found it.




By the way, YO WOODCUTTER, where you at!? We want to hear from you! Start blogging!

Your muscles are burning, your vision blurred, you're gasping for air, and yet you keep on fighting. What keeps a fighter fighting when they are almost completely mentally and physically depleted?
