I have an unlimited pass at an mma gym. I plan on doing bjj and

Oh and I also wanted to know if I make a lot of progress if I stick to this schedule for 2 or 3 months?

That's not too much for a beginner. I wouldn't do more than four classes in a week to start with.

MMA kickboxing is quite a bit different than Muay Thai because the scoring system is different (damage done in MMA vs. power of strikes in Muay Thai), and people in MMA are constantly on the lookout for takedowns so they will try a lot harder to keep moving when they're around the perimeter of the ring. In Muay Thai a lot of guys will stand fairly static and aren't afraid to lean back against the ropes and counter.

You'll make decent progress in technique but rapid progress in fitness.

Your gear can have pretty much anything you want on it. I have a shark on my trunks and then I wear a Hanes t-shirt, but I often just wear basketball shorts and a t-shirt. Some guys are gearfags, some guys wear Walmart sweats and a wife beater. It's really up to you.

Good info thanks. I'm sure it would be better to ask the gym this but are gyms anal about the equipment? As in can I use regular gym shorts or do I need actual muay thai or can I use regular boxing gloves Etc.

Gyms don't give a shit and neither does anyone else. If a gym tries to make you only wear their gear, get out quick. That's the first indication of a McDojo. A lot of gyms will have gear shops with discounts and that's a good thing but if they tell you you can only wear the stuff from their gear shops that's really, really bad.

Most gyms even have loaner gear. My coach has gloves, headgear, gi's to loan and a big box of free mouth guards just in case you don't have one.

>Is MMA kickboxing any different from muay Thai boxing?
The good MMA kickboxing is far superior to the best Muay Thai boxing in UFC settings, as well as non-ruled settings.
