Meet Carbon coach Rung Samanthong! πŸ₯Š
Rung started training in Muay Thai as a kid in Thailand, long before most of us had even stepped into a gym. That kind of grounding doesn't leave you. It shows in the way he coaches now.

300+ competitive fights and multiple Muay Thai champions coached later, Rung brings a level of fight IQ to Carbon that you can't fake or fast track. Whether you're brand new to Muay Thai or getting ready for your next fight, he builds it all: strength, technique, and the mental resilience to back it up.

We're proud to have him on the floor at Carbon Gym Norlane. Come say g'day and get amongst a session with Coach Rung. πŸ’š

Coach Tiff's favourite submission, and it's a nasty one. πŸ₯‹

The bow and arrow choke, straight from the gi. Tiff walks through the setup from mount: getting your partner flat, staying heavy through the chest, freeing the collar grip, then locking it up tight before the finish.
Looks smooth. Is not smooth to escape.

Come train BJJ with Coach Tiff at Carbon Gym Norlane, beginners welcome. πŸ’š

Coach on the receiving end for once πŸ₯ŠπŸ’š

Usually he's calling the combos. Today he's the one throwing them.

Even the coaches stay students.

Two first fights. Plenty to be proud of. πŸ’š

Bailey Angelino and Ryker Burke trained hard, stepped up, and showed real heart in the ring over the weekend.

Bailey took home a great win, but the biggest thing is seeing both boys have a crack, back themselves and learn from the experience.

Also, a valuable fight-night lesson: LCM bars are probably not the ultimate pre-fight workout. πŸ₯Š

Proud of you both. On to the next one.

Punch, reset.
Punch, reset.

This is why control matters so much.

It is not just about landing damage. It is about making the other person carry your weight, lose the hip battle, lose the head height battle, and then have to solve the same problem again and again.
Damage. Control. Damage. Control.

This is what coaching in MMA looks like: small details, repeated clearly, until the athlete can feel the position for themselves.

That is what makes guys like Khabib so hard to deal with. They do not rush. They take their time, win position, and make every escape expensive.
