The practical way to practice the elbows

Elbows are some of the most devastating tools in Muay Thai

But here’s the challenge: how do you train them if you can’t throw them full force in sparring?

It all starts with mentality and intention. Shadowboxing and bag work aren’t just about going through the motions. Every session needs to be objective-driven.

Picture a real fight - what’s your opponent doing, and how do you respond?

This kind of training builds muscle memory. So, when the fight comes, you’ll be ready for situations you’ve practiced, even if things don’t unfold exactly as imagined.

In Thailand, pros practice elbows lightly in the clinch, using precision and control. It’s how they build timing and setups without injuring their training partners.

For most of us, elbow pads can help simulate these scenarios in sparring, but it’s always about technique, not power.

That’s why I’m excited to announce a new module in KornerX. You’ll learn how to time, set up, and land elbows with precision - even without full-power sparring.

This module gives you the tools to train smarter, sharpen your Fight IQ, and make elbows one of your most effective weapons.

Get ready to level up as always.https://www.skool.com/kornerx/classroom/c04cc540?md=4e101d8fc00c4b47bb9037d59dbb18f2
