Rawai Muay Thai Camp is a Thai boxing gym located on the
TROPICAL island of Phuket.
@ Rawai Muay Thai Camp we have 15 - 20 Muay Thai fighters
living & training @ the gym.
They train 6 hours a day, 6 days a week, @ age of 18 most
of them have had 50+ Pro fights.
Training 6 hours a day is not as hard as it sounds.
You start your day @ 7 AM with a morning
run (30 - 60 minutes).
You then do an hour of techneque training with your personal
trainer & you finish your morning
training session with 30 - 40 minutes of weight training,
yoga, and or stretching. @ 4 PM you are back in the gym for another
2 - 3 hours of Muaythai training in the high humidity
of the tropics.
In most countries people exercise on average 1.5
hours a day, 3 times a week.
This is equal to 4.5 hours a week, 18
hours a month, 216 hours a year.
@ Rawai Muay Thai Camp our Thai fighters exercise 6
hours a day, 6 days a week.
This is equal to 36 hours of exercise
a week, 168 hours a month, 2,016
hours a year. @ Rawai Muaythai YOU do a year's training in one month
!
In 2001 Rawai Muay Thai Camp opened it doors to foreigner's
/ Non fighters that want to experience fitness training
in the tropics & the true essence of Muay Thai training
"Thai Style".
Rawai Muaythai Camp has quickly become the Number 1 Gym
is Southern Thailand for foreign students & by far the
most popular GYM in ALL of Thailand for female Thai Boxing
students.
You don't have to be a martial arts specialist or a fighting
junkie to come to Rawai Muaythai. Many people come here
for other reasons such as weight loss & improved fitness,
some of the more common reason for people to come to Rawai
Muaythai Camp I mentioned below .

Mental Stimulation & Motivation

Family Fitness Holiday & some FuN in the SuN
In the first week @ Rawai most new students usually can
only do 2 - 3 hours of training a day.
By the second week their fitness levels & stamina
has improved and 4 hours of training a day becomes easier
to achieve. By the 3rd week most people can train 5+ hours
a day.
The ideal length of time to be training in Thailand is
1- 3 months.
The first 3 week's you are building on your fitness, stamina
& technique.
In the second month your fitness is up to speed and looking
like a Pro fighter, your loss of body fat is noticeable
and you are mentally on an extreme high.
At the end of your 3rd month your fitness is peaking and
you will be keen to go home to impress your friends &
family with the new YOU ( Fighting Fit).
When you return home to your usual training gym, you then
realize how much you have improved in fitness and in your
Thai Boxing technique. Most students return to Rawai
Muay Thai Camp within a year of their first visit.

(Samak Sundaravej)
Saturday 30th August 2008 ...
For the past 3 month's The PEOPLE of Thailand have been
Protesting for the removal of the current Corrupt Thailand
Government.
Yesterday (Friday 29th August) The current Prime
Minister of Thailand Samak Sundaravej has ordered the
Thai Police to forcibly remove the protesters @ Bangkok.
As seen on the NEWS around the world, The heavy force
used by the Thai police against the unarmed Thai People
has backfired BIG Time & the Thai People have come
out in HUGE numbers to show their support for the Thai
Protesters.
D Day ... has now arrived with the People of
Thailand gathering in force in all of the major cities
around Thailand to show their support for The KING of
Thailand and voice their disapproval against the Corruption
of the current Thai Government.
With in hours of the Thai police using force in Bangkok,
10.000+ Thai residents @ Phuket blockaded the Phuket
airport and out numbered the Thai police by more than
100 - 1
The Thai ARMY have showed their support for the Thai
People and a spokesmen for the Thailand Army has said
the ARMY is here to protect the People of Thailand.
It should all be over in the next 48 hours as more than
2 million Thai People around Thailand will flex their
muscle and show the POWER of the Thai People against
the Corrupt Thailand Government & the Thai Police
whom is also well know for its corruption within the
higher ranks of the Thai police force.
The X Thailand Prime Minister Thaksin Shinawatra was
ousted from power in a September 2006 by military coup
for alleged corruption and abuse of power.
The newly formed Thailand Government in 2007 (Samak
Sundaravej') has since been found guilty of electoral
fraud and the Thai people want him OUT.
Prime Minister Samak Sundaravej is well known to have
links with the Thai Mafia & a close friend to disgraced

some strong headwinds.
The 5km run, however, proved to be the toughest leg
as the sun came out and heated up the course, making
climbing the small hills a strenuous challenge. Read more about the race
