You’re not always going to have a sparring partner, this shouldn’t stop you from training entirely. If you’re looking to just practice Boxing technique, you should visit our how to become a better boxer article. Muay Thai is the art of eight limbs and you don’t want to ignore over half of your striking ability.

These heavy bag workouts are great for both speed and strength of your punches and kicks, as well as your elbow and knee strikes.

Today I’m going to go over my 15 favorite Muay Thai combinations that I use on the heavy bag almost every day. However once I started learning how to flow with certain combinations, I started to improve my entire game. It took me a long time to progress on the heavy bag. It wasn’t my instructors fault that I wasn’t seeing much improvement, I didn’t take any initiative in training outside of class and my punches and kicks showed it. Although my Muay Thai instructor was a very experience fighter who had many professional fights in Thailand, I still couldn’t figure the heavy bag out completely. I would cluelessly hit the heavy bag for hours and wouldn’t see that much improvement. When I first started Muay Thai many years ago, I was always looking for ways to have harder and faster kicks and punches.
