Fatty gassed out in Muay Thai class Sup yall. So this morning in my Muay Thai class we were working combinations with Thai pads. We split into pairs each with 2 Thai pads and we would switch off after doing both sets of combos. I got parnerted with a significantly overweight guy. He had a beer gut, doughy arns the usual dad bod physique. Anywho so our first combination involves a jab-cross-hook, roundhouse kick followed by a leg check(lifting shin to block leg kick) and then another roundhouse. I was holding first and you could really see how this dude wasn't in good shape. He started slowing down pretty soon, out of breath and then asked me to lower the pads (which I was holding at my torso) because he wasn't flexible enough to kick that high. Well not just that but your lack of stamina sure doesn't help. After that was a second combination involving blocking two swings with the pads followed by clinching and delivering two knees and then 2 switch round kicks. And again he was pretty gassed out by this point but then got a bit faster as if he gained his second wind, lol. And our coach was really on this other fat dude about his shitty technique making it harder for the person holding pads. It really makes me wonder why you see fats in things like martial arts. I get that some of them at least try to get in shape but a martial art(especially such an intensive one as Muay Thai) should be your last option because all you do is slow those of us down who are in decent enough shape to do this,smh
