Clubb Chimera Martial Arts

When you think of boxing, you might picture intense sparring matches or professional bouts. But what if you could use boxing techniques purely to boost your fitness without stepping into the ring? That’s exactly what my client and I focused on during hour two of their Triple C Fitness personal training course. This program is designed for people who want to improve their fitness through martial arts techniques, using boxing as the foundation, but without any sparring involved.

When my Muay Thai client asked to focus on attacking during our 1.5-hour session, I knew this would shape the entire training. We dedicated 12 rounds of 3 minutes each to specific sparring drills that sharpened his offensive skills. I took on a mostly defensive role, starting with a passive approach and gradually moving to active counterattacks. This method helped him develop a deeper understanding of timing, distance, and weapon combinations. The session progressed from boxing-only rounds to full Muay Thai rules, with special attention to clinch work. The training wrapped up with a tough superset of pull-ups and nordic curls, followed by PNF stretching to aid recovery.

Tonight’s personal training session with my advanced client focused entirely on stand-up martial arts. We dedicated the full 1.5 hours to exploring the traditional conventions of boxing, kickboxing, and Muay Thai, rather than blending them as separate ranges in MMA. This approach allowed us to dive deep into the unique techniques and strategies each art offers in its purest form.

Tonight I ran a 1.5‑hour, stand‑up focused session with an advanced client — no MMA blending, just pure boxing, kickboxing and Muay Thai, each given two dedicated 3‑minute rounds. We began with a brutal 100 pull‑up challenge (10x10 variations) to build the upper‑body strength and grip needed for clinch control and powerful strikes.

Boxing rounds were all about precision: jab-cross combos, tight guard and pivoting for angles. Kickboxing added hip rotation, low‑kick checks and punch‑to‑kick transitions. Muay Thai finished the night with elbows, knees and clinch work — timing, posture and framing were the focus.

Why train this way? Respecting each art’s conventions builds real versatility: hand speed and head movement from boxing, range and leg work from kickboxing, and devastating close‑range control from Muay Thai. Combine them and you become a complete stand‑up fighter.

If you want personalised sessions that target technique, conditioning and strategy — in person or online — I can tailor a programme to your goals. Fancy a trial? Tell me your level and aims below or visit the full breakdown on our blog.

Submission grappling personal training demands more than just knowing individual techniques. Success often depends on smooth transitions and the ability to chain attacks fluidly. One drill that highlights this approach is the "heat-seeking kimura," a sequence that links multiple arm locks through positional changes. This post explores how this drill fits into training from the north south position, its practical applications, and how it builds a stronger grappling game.

There is an overly simplistic adage that one should master one discipline before moving on to another. Well, it's not really much of a wise proverb outside of the often tribalistic and insular subculture of martial arts. Go to a regular school, and students are expected to not only study a wide range of subjects but often several similar subjects. Yet, when it comes to martial arts, there appears to be this pervading idea that you need to get to a certain level before you should consider trying another system. This is despite the fact that throughout history, warriors have been expected to train in a multitude of different fighting arts simultaneously.

In this instance, I have yet another taekwondo student who sought me out to help improve a particular area of his training...

When my couple clients asked to focus more on hip control during our submission grappling personal training sessions, I knew this would be a game changer. Hip control is a fundamental skill that often determines the success of transitions, chokes, and necktie techniques. By drilling deeper into this area, we can uncover weaknesses and build stronger, more effective grappling strategies. In this post, I’ll share how we approached this focus, the benefits of hip control, and practical ways couples training together can improve their skills.
