from Heatrick Heavy Hitters – Muay Thai Performance · host Don Heatrick

Understanding exactly why a big fighter isn’t always stronger is crucial for fight performance. It explains why some fighters perform well in their weight class and others don’t, and informs how you can best train to dominate your weight class too.

But in order to achieve an effective strength-to-weight ratio, you must build the right kind of size! For a fighter looking to get bigger, what’s the right kind of size? What’s the wrong kind of size? That’s the focused topic for today. Let’s dig into this now.  Further notes and resources at https://heatrick.com/2022/07/29/exactly-why-a-big-fighter-isnt-always-stronger/
