Tiger Muay Thai offers a combat conditioning pool workout once a week.
A various number of workouts from swimming to shadow boxing underwater can part of the session.
Recovery in any sport is a crucial aspect of training. While some athletes have a preferred method or routine that fits their training program, recent studies have provided some scientific evidence that aquatic-based recovery workout method may actually be more beneficial over another.
Any pain-inducing inflammation from MMA, Muay Thai or any other various types of training -- whether it be muscle soreness, contusions or joint pain-- has to be flushed out of the area. Because you float in water, you can work your muscles and engage in movement, intense or relaxed, while submerged without adding further wear and tear to the troubled areas as you would on land.
An aquatic-based recovery workout reduces muscle fatigue and post-exercise pain, partly because the hydrostatic properties of water help decrease inflammation, according to a study in the “International Journal of Sports Medicine.” Dynamic range-of-motion exercises combined with diaphragmatic breathing also decrease muscular tension and increase relaxation.
The workout is ran by head strength and conditioning coach Vis Vires Athletics
