My Muay Thai Training Diary: Gear Review, 1 Year Later
VIDEO: Welcome back to my online diary documenting my very amateur experience training in Muay Thai. If you missed the previous entries on Bloody Elbow.
When I first started out my training a year ago, I received a lot of advice about what gear to purchase. Some of it I used, some I did not. (Nothing personal, but, well, I was cheap, what can I say?)
I’m appreciative of all the guidance I’ve received in this area as the world of gear acquisition can be incredibly daunting to a new trainee. There are just so many different pieces out there, and so many options for each one. Do I need ankle wraps? How about head gear? The super expensive mouthpiece or a more basic one? The Muay Thai steel cup, or something simple? 16 oz gloves? 14? 12? It’s a lot to process.

Muay Thai
Muay Thai is a combat sport of Thailand that uses stand-up striking along with various clinching techniques. This physical and mental discipline which includes combat on shins is known as "the art of eight limbs" because it is characterized by the combined use of fists, elbows, knees, shins, being associated with a good physical preparation that makes a full-contact fighter very efficient. Muay Thai became widespread internationally in the twentieth century, when practitioners defeated notable practitioners of other martial arts.
