Last Day at Fairtex

With the knowledge that today was going to be my last day at Fairtex, it gave me an extra incentive to train. After a few minutes on the stationary bike I decided to give it a go as I was greased up and limber. I went through the customary pad work but I told my trainer Chai to up the pace. I went through my normal combinations and afterwards I made a late decision to step in the ring to spar.

Sparring went well but I had a gut feeling that Chai let me hit him this time around. Also, I noticed that I needed to work on my teep or front push kick. I have no force on it and I need to tweak my technique. After sparring I decided to use the bike again and call it day.

The afternoon session went just like the first. This time around Naruepol stepped in the ring to do his work alongside me. It was a nice training session and I felt a little sad because it would be my last training session as I do not train on the day that I leave. I took a few pictures with the guys and headed off to dinner.

Today I just took photos with my friend Ted who is the manager at Fairtex Muay Thai. I also met up with some fighters were taking part of the Super 8 tournament today at the Fairtex Stadium. It sucks to be leaving but I had enough of fighting for now.

More to follow when I return.
