In Thailand, Muay Thai boxing has become one of the fastest ways for women to achieve their health goals. They want to be fit, feel energetic, reduce the incidence of disease, and much more. All of that is achieved by practicing Muay Thai. But why is that?

We can start talking about weight loss, which is a common topic among women. According to the latest science, the best way to lose weight is through a combination of activities. We want to practice both cardiovascular exercises such as walking and running, and strength training activities such as lifting weight or your own body weight. Muay Thai has a combination of cardio and strength training activity, and it is the perfect match to achieve accelerated weight loss. When you come to a class of Muay Thai, you will see how you become out of breath after a while because you’re forcing your heart to pump more blood to the rest of the body. It is cardio exercise.
