Here's a great drill that will increase the speed and power of your muay thai round kicks, but will it will help you also help you increase your ability to recover quickly between strike combinations. The pyramid is the best kicking drill that you'll hate to do.
With a partner holding thai pads (or a heavy bag - I prefer a partner) 4 sets each leg of the following:
single kick
double kick
triple kick
4 kicks
5 kicks
4 kicks
triple kick
double kick
single kick
If you've trained muay thai for more than 6 months you should be comfortable with at least the double kick... make sure that each strike has equal power. It's only 200 kicks, I promise it's effective.
Try the drill out and let me know how what you think of it.
Bringing muay thai back to its root purpose: practicality & efficiency in combat or the street. Practical application of older muay thai systems - mae mai muay thai, muay chao cherk, muay boran, lerdrit, boar bando, and close quarter combat tactics.
