I heard that it's more of a commercialized foreigner friendly type gym and not really for hard core fighters. I don't know if that's true.

Yeah that's what they say. But the coach is Fiziev ? It's a big facility. Like a hotel resort. Smaller gyms will teach you more hands on cause there isn't 500 other farangs.

The big income is of course the tourists but they usually have pro classes but those are invites only and not accessible for regulars. At least that was how it was last time I was in phuket.

Yea, I love that show, got all the episodes saved on my old computer. In the 90's as a kid I did some japanese (sport) jiu jitsu, I come from a judo family but the judo gym switched to jiu jitsu because they wanted to do strikes too back then. I quit after about 2 years then returned as a teenager same year this show started. Ever since this show came along I decided that martial arts is my way of life.

A fighter or someone trained long enough knows when his punching increases ,when you actually hit heavier things it conditions your body to absorb more thudding power bc it has to withstand a harder impact when you are actually hitting something as hard as you can in spots , Marciano developed his power on 2/3 hundred pound bags whatever it was that’s why he hit as hard as he did plus genetics on his 185 pound fight weight for his time .

Genetics help a lot it’s a big advantage as well , you can train to hit hard if you know what your doing but genetically being a hard puncher is a huge difference, My father hit like a truck at only 140 back in his day he was 19 and 1 , my own son weighs about 145 now and he hits like a Cruiserweight and he’s never even hit a heavy bag yet the oic below is my father knocking someone out with a left hook , I’m bringing this up bc your asking me how do I know ?

I’ve been training since my late teens ,if you’ve ever fought bf and knocked someone out your going to know what and how your punching gets better bc you’ve done it bf and punching becomes second nature ,my family were fighters even on my moms side some were marine boxing champions , genetically punching came easy to me though I worked hard on that specific aspect .

in my opinion lighter bags hit back harder, I mean with more shock coming back into the arm. I can hit a half ton hay bale and the rebound is only slight because it barely moves, or a double end bag and the rebound is slight because it weighs a few ounces, the hardest thing to hit is a light bag of maybe 15-30 lbs where the recoil is fast enough and deep enough to do damage
