Muay Thai Guy Podcast - Episode 104 Ever since I first started in Muay Thai, Brett Hlavacek's name was one that I recognized early on. He was one of the top dogs who trained under the great Kru Phil Nurse from The Wat, so I knew whenever I watched him I would be in for a treat. With his powerful roundhouses, calm composure and deadly counter skills, it was always fun to watch him fight. Now Brett holds the WBC belt and has been racking up wins both locally in NYC as well as abroad. On top of that he will also be hosting the new Nak Muay Nation training camp in July and is looking to fight at one of Thailand's top promotions like MAX Muay Thai or Super Muay Thai. We talk about his upcoming trip plus much more including: How his start in Taekwondo eventually led to his love for Muay Thai. Why he decided to start competing at the early age of 12. How the Muay Thai scene was much different when he was growing up in the sport. His decision to move to NYC to train full-time under Phil Nurse at The Wat. What made him want to pursue Muay Thai as a career rather than a traditional job his parents wanted. What his past experiences in Thailand have been like and what he expects in his upcoming trip. How he's developed into a coach and trainer throughout his years at The Wat. What he and Kru Nurse look for when bringing up young fighters. How he develops young fighters through training, interclubs and demo fights. Why as he's gotten older he's decided to cut less weight for his fights. And much, MUCH more!

The Muay Thai Guy Podcast - Episode 103 Totally dedicating your life to Muay Thai can be a difficult thing to do, especially with it being so difficult to make a living. But the lack of extrinsic reward doesn't deter fighters like Nak Muay Nation sponsored fighter, D.J. Miller from creating a lifestyle that allows him immerse himself in the sport. The first day D.J. stepped foot in a Muay Thai gym, he knew that Muay Thai was going to be a big part of his life. Since then he's had over 30 amateur fights, 12 championship belts and is off to a solid start in his professional career. I had a chance to talk with D.J. about his career including things like: How the movie "The Protector" peaked his curiosity about Muay Thai. Why even as a high school wrestler and experienced grappler, he chooses to stay away from MMA and focus solely on Muay Thai. How his location makes it hard for him to get fights as both an amateur and a pro. Why he chose to fight in so many Muay Thai tournaments throughout the states. The ups and downs of his career and how he was able to overcome a tough KO loss. Why he thinks Muay Thai needs more personality to grow in the U.S. How he able to train in small spurts throughout the entire day with his job. Why he takes it on himself to coach and lead a team of fighters. How he's able to balance training his team and training himself. His thoughts on weight cutting and why he would rather go up in weight than cut weight. And much, much more!

Muay Thai Guy Podcast - Episode 98 As a fighter and competitive athlete, the power of the mind can NOT be overlooked. We all know the saying "Fighting is 90% mental and 10% physical", but how often do we take the time to actually train our minds? If the mental side is such a crucial aspect to your success as a fighter, why aren't you having mental training sessions where you optimize your thought process, memory, focus and emotion? Fighters are becoming aware of how important it is to train the mind, and that's where guys like Joshua Manuel come into play. Joshua is a fight hypnotist who specializes in helping fighters train their unconscious mind to eliminate doubt/anxiety and replace it with confidence/focus. In our interview we cover a whole range of topics including: What initially drew him into wanting to learn more about hypnosis. What type of benefits are expected after being hypnotized. How he deals with skeptics and people who are hesitant to believe in this type of work. Why he likes to work with competitive fighters and help them optimize their mind.

MTG 089: The Parallels Between Muay Thai and Life with CROM Chris Romulo

10 years temu

—

Muay Thai Guy Podcast - Episode 89 I usually get inspired by every single interview I do for the podcast, but talking with Chris Romulo of CROM Physical Culture took my inspiration to a whole other level. Chris has always been a popular figure in the NY Muay Thai Scene. He was a successful amateur and pro Muay Thai fighter who held the WKA Super Middleweight Title before retiring and opening up his own gym. Since then Chris has given back to the community and sport (he's been a huge help with The Muay Thai Project and Liam Tarrant ) that he loves so much and continues to do so even when faced with extreme difficulties... like when Hurricane Sandy destroyed his gym and left him homeless for months on end. We discuss how he was able to overcome such adversity and much more: How he found Muay Thai after taking a beating in a street fight. What made him decide to begin coaching/owning his own gym after his fight career. Why heart is so important not only in Muay Thai, but in life. His story about opening up his gym in Rockaway Beach and then having it destroyed by Hurricane Sandy. What made him decide to try opening up again in Rockaway (which is notoriously known for flooding) and not move to Manhattan where he has more of a following. What changes he's made as a gym owner to help get more members, including his newest edition called "SHREDbyCROM". What SHRED is and why he thinks it's been such a huge driver in memberships while also catering to the Muay Thai fighters. His thoughts on Crossfit and why he thinks it didn't work well at bringing members into his gym. The importance of having a base of fitness members to keep the lights on for the fighters. How his 16 years in the sport helped him create SHREDbyCROM. What the workouts and exercises of SHREDbyCROM consist of. His thoughts on bullying and why learning Muay Thai is so important for the youth How important the Muay Thai Project has been to kids in his community. The stories of how these kids came from difficult life situations and have been able to turn them around thanks for Muay Thai. How Muay Thai has gotten him prepared for life's hardships. And much, much more.
