Muay Thai, sometimes referred to as Thai boxing, is a combat sport that uses stand-up striking along with various clinching techniques. This discipline is known as the "art of eight limbs", as it is characterized by the combined use of fists, elbows, knees, and shins. Join in my one month journey through Muay Thai, as I learn Muay Thai for 30 days.

I'm BACKKKK with another 30 day challenge video. Probably my toughest challenge yet🥵What do y'all think about Muay Thai and the final fight?🥊 Huge thank you to Ambush Muay Thai and the coaches at the gym for taking me from 0 to 30!

[@Seantorky3]

Amazing achievement in 30 days. You should be proud of yourself. Normally we wouldn't call sparing a fight.

[@granddaddy_funk]

This was really cool! you should try boxing too so you can fill in those gaps and become a well rounded martial artist.

[@KarlKarsnark]

EPIC! Simply getting in the ring is the greatest challenge of all. To see the complete opposite end of the Martial Arts spectrum, you may want to try a 30 day challenge with Aikido. It isn't the most "practical" style in the world, but it still has many benefits and several highly effective techniques. Keep training. Cheers!

[@Marc-fr5pu]

Really impressive! I commend you so much for the way you apply yourself in all your challenges and of course this one. Watching you spar and utilise what you had learnt was so cool to see. Keep going with everything you do, you definitely gave me food for thought. I do MMA, so hearing the coach compliment you on how fast you learn and your attention to learning should always be a priority for any sport and field of study for that matter. So well done! Awesome job on the video as well

[@LittleRapGuy]

You did great. Shadow boxing is a lot easier on the body. People don't realize it's better with gloves on, so don't shadow box sometimes. :0

[@johnjinglehimer2900]

2 minutes in I can tell you're gonna progress faster than average. Some people just understand technique quickly regardless of martial arts experience and you definitely got that going for you.

[@taoist32]

Her proprioceptive awareness is very high. I have a friend just like this. He can analyze very quickly how someone is using their body in a specific sport, break down the movements in his mind, and utilize it effectively enough to do the sport really well on the first day. He did this with golf, bowling, disc golf, football, snowboarding, and downhill skiing.

[@roborbiettinoisgone392]

She also has experience with Taekwondo so that probably helped with her fitness

[@markoviitanen2671]

I agree. She has good coordination and hips are moving easily with the techniques right out of the bat. I was also quick learner when I started. It was a lot easier for me, than most.

side note but very important: do not put your contacts back in after they hit the mat without cleaning, the mats carry bacteria which will go through the lense into your eyeball, there have been fatal instances of this. maybe look this up to be safe. great vid and well done

You’re not supposed to wear contacts or glasses during a match or during training. You must be able to adapt and overcome.

​@@sergeantb.r3575 What a bunch of BS...

[@RK-um2bj]

​@@ninuts9653 it isn't bs, I spar half blind to avoid all that, you adapt after a while

[@rohitchaoji]

This tells me it's possible to learn Muay Thai in a month PROVIDED you're already an athlete and have the work ethic of a competitive athlete. For some of us, it is still training technique, strength and conditioning, and setting a good, active routine for months, and sometimes years before we can hold our own in an in-gym sparring session. That said, I think training in combat sports has definitely helped me build mental toughness and making me realize that I can push past what I think is my limit.

[@omegasquad868]

im sure she didnt do this all in one month just 30 days of training so im thinking maybe 3 days a week so a few months of training

[@rohitchaoji]

@@omegasquad868 I think her being an athlete in a related sport still makes it possible to learn it in that duration. It's like a wrestler going to a jiu jitsu class for 30 days. The results will be very different from someone who just got off the couch and decided to do jiu jitsu for 30 days.

[@MrBurgerPal]

It’s the 1 on 1 instructions imo, at my gym there’s usually like 30 people so the coach can only give me a few pointers at most a session for a few seconds

[@salaad1385]

Crazy how underrated this channel is

[@sergiospeed5776]

Real

[@Nuhjeea]

NO FUCKING WAY! I swear you and a few other channels had a huge influence on me really trying BJJ. While at it, I also discovered that I love MMA in general and now I see you drop this video for Muay Thai. Totally unexpected but awesome!!!

That’s awesome! Keep it up :)

[@capibaramalo7235]

I find it funny that I signed up for a Muay Thai/BJJ gym when you did your BJJ challenge. So now 8 months later I see you start Muay Thai and I'm reminded of how grateful I am for that video you made. As now an experienced (lol) MT practitioner seeing you pick it up was fun, keep it up Kize!

[@mysweetrhodora]

Since you're Austin based, it would be really dope to see you try historical longsword and other weapons at Austin Historical Weapons Guild! They're super nice and it's always fun to see more folks try HEMA (historical european martial arts).

[@padraigin2929]

Great idea!

[@KizeBae]

Would be fun!

[@TheWabbitSeason]

I've run into many Kendo and Kenjutsu practioners at HEMA training. Everyone loves to fight with two-handed swords.

[@paulosimoes9007]

4x Muay Thai National Champion here, you did amazingly well for someone that never did martial arts before

[@OuroborosWorm]

Completely agree that she did amazingly well, but it's worth noting that she already has experience in Tae Kwon Do.

[@ronmate4208]

4x champ eh? Sure bud

[@khanofkhans6546]

@@ronmate4208 first rule of the internet is disbelieve everyone. But it's not impossible they aren't. There are plenty of small countries out there where being a national champ wouldnt be that much of a stretch. Or who knows, could be from a legitimate country with legitimate Muay Thai fighters.

Thank you! But I have about a year of experience in Taekwondo and a few months in Tukong. No experience with muay thai going in!

30 days and you're already this good????? you're already better than 60% of the people who've trained for a year

It's about the discipline and having the right coach.

[@goonigugu43]

she has had more training before her footwork and her disciplined blocking

[@zzenishim]

no, shes not better than 60% of the people whove trained for a year, its not just how it looks, its the technique, power, speed, explosiveness, and footwork which we didnt get to see too much of

[@MrNamaikisaru]

I trained Muay Thai many years ago. To do that much in 30 days is amazing. Great work.

[@JohnnyBGSkills]

When Elton talks about mass and acceleration, he's referring to a physics concept in martial arts! When it comes to the force of impact of your punch for example, you could apply "Linear Kinetic energy". Kinetic energy (K) is equal to one-half the product of its mass, m, and the square of its velocity, v, or K=1/2mv2. This is what Kize is doing in (1:00). Note: Her base/legs aren't rotating. Just her wrist. Here's a secret for ya'll: If you add rotation to your Strike (With your whole body from your feet to your fist) the kinetic energy will increase by 20%. "Rotational kinetic energy" is where huge physical power is at. Kize applies this in (1:51) because she rotates from her base into her kick. The power is so visible that even her cameraman reacts xD. Kize, you are a role model for thousands, and for millions who haven't discovered you yet. Keep that guard up and all of the Great work you're doing 🔥

[@apollokujira]

dang,.....I probably need to re-open my Physic book in high school again.....

[@sportmuaythaiv1045]

@ Johnny BG. True, Kinetic energy is the key, but a capable trainer would have a solution for power. If Ms Kize Bas had better form, she would have bio-mechanic advantage to compliment her executions.

[@RandomGuy041]

[@thejoshuathomas]

The coaches speech at the end resonated deeply with me. I've had to lean on my ability to learn when getting back into sprinting. From form and technique, to warm-ups, drills, and stretching, it's a much different beast than my knowledge base of lower body gym workouts. But I've never felt better, so I know the patience with myself and consistency is paying off. Much respect to you for being a lifelong learner and challenging yourself in ways that aren't initially comfortable. It inspires many and sets a wonderful example for many generations to observe and absorb. All the best.

[@justinR8986]

Four 5 min rounds?! Wow, I’ve fought my whole life in martial arts and mma and four 5 min rounds with fresh people every time at a high pace like that is insane! Major major MAJOR respect for you girl!

That's awesome! Coach Elton and the Ambush crew are excellent. I trained there for about a year, never did Muay Thai before then but I learned a lot. Best Muay Thai gym in the Austin area for sure.

[@CyclingMartialartswithMusic]

You did very good. Also, your style of kicking more than punching will get you far especially in "thai style" scoring. Congratulations.

[@cindyup2916]

He is the best trainer I have ever seen in a sport like this! And you did so well... fighting ist hard

[@CuriosMindDIY]

I had my first sparring yesterday after 3 weeks of training. A friendly one, not going too heavy. I recently stopped vaping and I was so short of breath but I did manage to put in a few good shots against a guy who frequents the gym for a year or so, so I was happy. Love this video, very motivating! You're extremely brave!

[@Trumkin42]

I'm actually really interested in your process of learning that he talked about, could you possibly do a breakdown of your approach to learning new things and how they translate to different types of skills?

[@rashedulkabir6227]

There are two types of skills. One is hard skill and other ks soft. Both skills have different learning method.

[@Brian-zw4zu]

You've done TKD and muay thai. Very good sets for strong kicks. How about finding a Choy Li Fut school to learn that? It's a traditional style of kung fu and a lot of schools mix in more modern methods to teach and help students progress into the system. It's a powerful and devastating kung fu style.

[@skylermadrigal2690]

This was very brave of you

[@twistedcoffee1187]

It was really exciting! Me either had my first fight( fairly intensive sparring) in my 30th day kickboxing training but you did it much better than me.

[@chrisyisouth]

Your KZbin videos are quite addictive. I subscribed BTW and this is your third video I’m watching. Let’s just say, I’m more than impressed. I’ll probably eventually watch all your videos. I’ll likely suggest your videos to some of my students as well. Keep up the good work.

[@tomilee78]

You are a very talented person, you learn things much faster than average people. By the way, the viewership should have given you a dilemma that 30-day challenge contents are so much popular than others while you can create this kind only once a month. Maybe, 7-day challenges as contents? ;)

[@henriquekatahira1653]

You’ve done fantastic job in just 30 days. You kicking form improved so much and you could keep the pace and aggressive even running out of stamina. Learning definitely is a skill that can be learned and you are an awesome learner. ❤

[@brandonellisFLman]

I just finished my first year of Muay Thai training and in those 30 days u gained approximately 2 months experience since u put in 2 hours daily. Many people train for a week what u did in 2 days. I'm not trying to take away from it but just wanted to put that out there. With that said, you did an amazing job!

This is such a cool video! I've been thinking about doing just this for the last six months or so. I've been spending waaaaaay to many hours on the couch since covid started and think this would be a great way to kind of kickstart and shock my body into moving again after . I've been checking out different MT gyms in Thailand to live somewhere I don't really have a choice to not train. If I did it at home I'm pretty sure I'd find an excuse to miss a day, which will lead to a few days and then I'll be back on the couch... Thank you for inspiring me to actually try to achieve this!

As usual, this is excellent! It's always so good to see you reach new objectives and being able to overcome yourself again and again, it truly shows your nature as a person through these challenges (: By the way, it would be very nice if in the future you tried some weapon-based martial art, like Kendo for example! There are plenty of Dojos nearby, I'm sure of that. I think it would be excellent as it is a beautiful sport and philosophy, and you don't always get the chance to hit each other with armor and bamboo swords!

Another awesome video! I wish this one had been a bit longer, it would have been awesome to breakdown a few of the techniques you were actually using and then comparing that to how those techniques actually faired in the ring for you. Also, I'm very surprised to see you learn muay thai and jiu jitsu which are proven effective real life fighting tetchniques, but the one you chose to continue with was the traditional martial art. I'd love to hear your thoughts on why you made this decision! Could you do a little breakdown video on the different skills youve learned and comparing them?

[@jacksdad734]

This is the first video of yours Ive seen. Im interested. Lets go.

[@thomasbucker7215]

At first you did a great job! No doubts and if you carry on you could compete in a fight. As you had a limited time you and your trainer have concentrated the work on a limited set of strikes. For the ones who don't know MT - there is much more. I understand that you have "fight" in your video title to get more hits, but this was hard sparring with huge gloves. Carry on👍

[@jimreily7538]

Hard sparring is still tough though. I didn't hard spar for like 6 months. 30 days is frankly remarkable. Watch how she throws her kicks - opens the hips up, rolls her hip over. She's pretty much a phenom if she's doing this well in 30 days. Imagine her in 300. Or 3 years.

[@EliteHero301]

very inspring, im a karate fighter trying to get into muay thai/kickboxing and im facing the same struggles u mentioned (boxing, guard up, in fighting, stamina). Its nice to know im not alone and its super awesome to see you push through. Cool stuff kize!

[@Stuart-bh9nh]

What is your personal opinion of karate compared to MT? Many of the karate schools iv seen seems more of a dance routine and wouldn't work in any actual fights which is giving students zero combat knowledge.

[@EliteHero301]

Thats a fair opinion. Most dojos especially in NA fail to teach students what they are actually learning. The karate that should be taught in my opinion should have a focus on "bunkai" which is the application of the techniques and should be practiced. This is where you see alot of correlations between karate techniques and other martials arts, MT included. It would also help to show how point sparring can be applied in coherence with full contact fighting. This is where Muay Thai comes in, it gives you the experience of standing infront of an opponent and getting hit, while using most of the weapons (8 limbs) available. @@Stuart-bh9nh

[@EliteHero301]

In my experience, alot of karate complements my Muay thai (kicks esp, sweeps, the hip movement for alot of techniques). However, if a dojo doesnt encourage any sparring of any kind, this is where most of the complaints of karate comes from, because the techniques taught dont get practiced enough in a 1v1 situation

[@zp_suki2836]
