A day in the life of a Fighter/Coach living and training out of a Muay Thai and MMA Camp in Mexico!!11/5/2026 Ive been living, training, fighting and coaching across South East Asia and Mexico for 20 years this year and I can say outright that for most people it’s not a luxurious lifestyle.. For me I’ve lived a lot of my dreams put in a lot of hard work and also lived some of my worst nightmares. Across this many years involved in combat sports you can’t help but run into some medical issues and most likely some insurance complications. Alongside those it’s not uncommon to have visa issues and problems with renewing your stay in a country. At times that can certainly feel like you’re not wanted in a country that you consider home and at other times you get to feel a kindness from people that you just don’t expect. This is what my typical day/night looks like whilst Im building up my training business in Mexico and continuing to fight as often as I can. This is going to start outside of the daily sequence that most would expect but I hope as you read through it that will make sense. Monday – Friday, I get up at 22:00 and have a quick pre-workout before doing about 20 mins of cardio and then work the heavy bags and footwork drills for about 45 mins before cooling down with some abdominal work and stretching. Then a quick shower, breakfast and into the office to start my 8hrs of night work (A necessary part of trying to build a training camp on the opposite side of the world to where people expect) Following on from that I usually do 45 mins of conditioning in the morning and have a quick meal before I go and try to get a few hours of sleep Skin infections are fairly common in gyms across the country so its important to remember to shower as soon as possible after training to make sure that you are able to clean yourself before your pores close over and trap in the bacteria. I get up again around 14:00 and have a protein shake before cleaning down the mats and going for a 5km run at around 15:30 The afternoon session starts around 16:00 with an hour of boxing work followed by about 90 mins of Muay Thai Then after the evening session its time for a high protein and medium carb meal before I do some stretching and meditation I’m usually left feeling fairly exhausted and head off to bed by 19:30 ready to get up again at 22:00. Monday through Friday are pretty much the same week in and week out and then I take Sunday as a rest day when I actually get to go out and enjoy the beauty of the country around me. It’s a great life and if you are just here to get ready for a fight or get in better shape then you will have some extra downtime and get to enjoy a lot more of the local area. Everyone is welcome here no matter what your background or skill level, I hope to see you out here training some time soon!!

As part of our refurbishment and upgrades we have now built a traditional styled Temazcal.
A Temazcal is essentially a traditional Meso American sauna /steam room constructed from volcanic stone, wood or in our case local hand crafted bricks. The structure is heated by hot volcanic rocks, placed in the center, water is then poured over the rocks to produce steam with Herbs (typically sage or copal) added to aid the cleansing process. These ancient structures have been part of Mexican and South American culture for around 1,000 years. The word itself originates from a Nahuatl word Temāzcalli, which translates to “house of heat.” Thought to have derived from the Pre-Hispanic indigenous people of Mesoamerica, the cleansing ritual took place before and after battles and sports tournaments. It was also thought to have healing powers and create a connection to the earth. WHAT ARE THE BENEFITS OF A TEMAZCAL? 1. PHYSICAL BENEFITS Temazcal, like other forms of steam room, has many physical benefits. Aston University in England, for example, notes the following five pros. 2. FLUSHES OUT TOXINS Sweat helps to push out toxins — a catch-all name for generally harmful bodies that enter our systems. Getting rid of them can help to improve your overall well-being. 3. CLEARS SKIN The steam produced by pouring cold water over the hot rocks helps to flush out impurities in the skin, clearing the pores and creating a smoother look. Steam rooms could also help to treat acne. 4. SUPPORTS WEIGHT LOSS Increasing the amount you sweat can help you get rid of water weight. While not a cause for concern, water weight can cause bloating and be uncomfortable. 5. AIDS BLOOD FLOW The heat in a temazcal ceremony will open up your capillaries, allowing blood to move around the body more easily. This has many benefits including increased oxygen levels and lower blood pressure. Our Temazcal will be available for use by all camp guests by prebooking!  From the beginning of March, Combat 360X in La Paz, Baja California Sur will be welcoming Brazilian Jiu Jitsu Black Belt, Wade Henderson to our coaching family.
