you just gotta find the right places. I eat at one place where the portion sizes are really big and the food is awesome, for the same price as everywhere else. Although its still probably smaller than a western portion.

almost as much as they sleep. no but seriously if they are awake they are either eating or could eat.
Thai girls lose their shit when you finish their food for them......girls in north america love it, here they are liked shocked you are even doing it, they still probably love it though.
yes, one of the best camp for clinching.
They do about 30 min of clinch at the end of every session

Kaewsamrit also does 30 minutes of clinching at the end of the training session.

And has anyone here ever fought in Bangkok? How much experience do you have? by time i get to Thailand i will have had about 1 year of muaythai under my belt, i guess the trainers woulden't let you fight unless they were sure you were ready?
ya but Keatkhamtorn is more famous for their clinching, while Kaewsamrit is more for their boxing.

No squat rack, but there is a big mountain right next to the camp if you want to work your legs by running up it...
If they don't have a squat rack you can do what is called hack squat (google it). Though it looks like a deadlift, the load is distributed very differently, and it is, in fact, a squat.
Perfect if you only have a bar.
I do squats at Sinbi's by lifting the bar off the bench press. I also do this here at my gym. Takes some getting used to (esp. when you lower the bar to rack it back) and you can't go crazy on the weight, but it's the real thing.
PS: there is a great gym (Naiharn Gym) just down the road from Sinbi's with great gear (squat rack etc,...), aircon, very new and clean, which costs about 3

It really looks like many of these camps spend their weight lifting money on the things that tourists want, not what they need.
If only they'd invest in an olympic bar, a power rack and some weight... No need for smith machines and dedicated BP benches then...
