The gym of Saenchai Sor Kingstar was just recently updated. Take a look at the video. The place is very nice!

No problem SaenchaiMT. Are there other accommodations close to 13 coins cause that 1000 baht per day for training and accommodation does not work for my budget?
 
Two years ago price for one day training was 500 alone, if youre able to still get both for 1000, its a decent price as the resort is not that bad.

30000 baht per month is a lot for muaythai. I do not need the resort. Just the training and basic accommodation. Hell, I don't mind if I have hot water or not as long as my training is good.

There is other accommodation available, starting at around 3,000 baht per month + utilities, contact me for availability at [email protected], also anyone who wants to check out the website should go to:

Because we are experiencing technical difficulties, and though 30,000 sounds like alot, it isnt that much compared to other gyms in Bangkok considering you stay in a private hotel room.
 
Hey, awesome post. I have a question about living conditions. How do you handle food? Do you cook most stuff yourself, and are you able to keep a healthy diet?

You are able to maintain a very healthy diet without cooking for yourself. You are not going to put on weight training in Thailand. The heat coupled with the training will prevent that. If you are eating at the gym, you'll have rice with meat and probably 2 or 3 other vegetable dishes to choose from all freshly prepared. Eating in Thailand is not like India where you must watch everything that is put on your plate.

There is no shortage of great places to train in BKK. I suggest Kaewsamrit since you have their logo as your avatar. Sinbi and WMC are in great locations. Both are close to nice beaches so should have a great time when not training.

Thnx for the info. Some of my friends have been to kaewsamrit and all rate it highly. Was thinking about staying at 13 coins and also checking the gym near by.

What is the quality of training at Sinbi and Wmc?

You cant go wrong with either Kaewsamrit or 13 Coin. But if western style accomodations is a consideration, i would go with 13 Coin.

And by the way did train at kaewsamrit for 5 days, wish I had two weeks, but I was touring Thailand from Phuket to BKK.

I was at Tiger Muay Thai/MMA when I was in Phuket but I heard Sinbi is pretty good in comparrison to the gyms around Phuket. You jsut have to remember that the mentality of the guest and trainers may be a bit more laid back than you would get in BKK, Issan, or Chang Mai for example. But Sinbi is worth your time if your going to Phuket...And of course the beaches are gorgeous in Phuket!
 
Here is some very recent footage of training, accommodation and other sites around Keatkhamtorn. Both vids were just uploaded on Jan 18.


 
I want to train in Thailand for 6 months some time soon. I want the hardcore training thailand is known for and want to fight for whatever gym I go to.
I've pretty much narrowed it down to:
Keatkhamtorn
Kaewsamrit
and Por Pramuk

Do each of these gyms specialize in a certain aspect of fighting? Which would be the best to go to and make me a better fighter? Also does anyone have any experience at these gyms for great lengths of time?

Thank you very much

All great gyms, I know Keatkhamtorn is espescially known for their clinchwork, and Por Pramuk has or had some ranked western boxers.

Like to add Kaewsamrit likes to focus on the boxing part of the Muay and has decent clinch training.
But considering the lsit of camps you want to train at, you will either become a Nuk Muay bad-ass or get a heart attack.:icon_chee
 
Unfortunately I have heard that the camps I would like to go to are now hotbeds for tourists who arent very serious

That right there should be the flag for you not to train at those gyms if you are serious and want a good support system from other fighters that have the same mindset as you.
