Hey,
Whether you’re just starting out or stepping into the ring, having the right gear is essential—and who better to guide you than UK #1 Juan Cervantes?
As a top-level competitor and Muay Thai coach at Northern Kings in Newcastle, Juan breaks down what you really need to train and compete effectively. From sparring essentials to competition upgrades, here’s a quick rundown of his tried-and-tested Muay Thai gear guide:
|
|
Beginners: Get the Basics Right
- Gloves: One good pair to start—go bigger (16oz) for sparring and padwork.
- Shin Guards: Quality matters—you’ll be glad you invested when you miss and hit an elbow!
- Essentials as You Progress: Add a gum shield, hand wraps, and a groin guard.
- Thai Shorts: For better freedom of movement and that authentic look.
|
|
Intermediate to Advanced: Level Up Your Kit
- Multiple Gloves: Juan uses 10oz for bag/pads and 16oz for sparring.
- Head Guard: Especially if you're following IFMA amateur rules.
- Elbow Pads: Great for safe clinch training.
- Personal Pads: A pair of classic Thai pads and a belly pad will go a long way.
