TW: suicide, pressured speaking, fast speaking This is my personal history in the combat sports. My life has been short but I've made sure that it has been LIVED. I talk fast because I'm bipolar (relax... I'm stable).

It's true - I've been limiting my daily calorie consumption to around 1500-2000 calories per day. Calorie deficit dieting is the best way to lose weight. It doesn't matter what you eat as much as how much you eat a day to lose weight. Consult a doc before starting any weight loss regimen.

It's no secret anymore... I run a daily 5K distance, every morning. It helps!

Please be advised... these are not in any particular ranks, or a specific order. There are many styles of kickboxing in the world. Many are part of established martial arts traditions. Some are standalone combatives styles or combat sports. In this episode, we will take a brief look at 5 of them.

Yet another list episode! * Muay Thai * American Karate * Taekwondo (This is a longer episode.)

Yay! Another list episode! By the way, you can't find us on YouTube, because I (your host, Nate) was deplatformed some time ago by YouTube for reasons I'm not at liberty to disclose. This list is not in any order. There will be more such episodes in the coming weeks!

Welcome to our first midnight shadowboxing workout session! Feel free to follow along.

If you are not sure how to do any of these moves, drop-in to a Muay Thai training class in your local area to find out about the techniques we discuss and use in each of these weekly workout sessions! If you don't have a fight camp or MMA gym nearby to train in the basics of Muay Thai you can visit my website in a couple of hours to get free visual assistance with the basic techniques. Note that this is a sub-optimal learning method. For best results I highly recommend that you find an MMA gym or Muay Thai camp near you, as self-taught kickboxers tend to do poorly.

(I said you can visit my website in a couple of hours because that part of my website is not ready yet.)

A tutorial episode. This episode discusses in great detail how you can enter into your very first kickboxing tournament when you feel like you are ready to fight in your first bout. Options include the IKF PKB or PMT circuit and the Smoothcomp event system for kickboxing tournaments. Enjoy!

A list episode. These are five great reasons to do kickboxing & Muay Thai training. Enjoy!
