Should I do boxing and Muay Thai at the same time?

Boxing and Muay Thai are excellent arts to mix together. The slick defensive head movement of boxing can be a great compliment to Muay Thai if modified to account for knees and head kicks. I highly suggest against training these arts concurrently though. To mix styles you must first become proficient in one then proficient in the other completely separately. Once you have learned enough to have a true understanding of each you can see where things need to be modified and adapted to get them to work together. Trying to cross-train two striking arts at once will only hinder your ability to truly absorb everything either one has to offer and put you in a “Jack of all trades; master of none” situation.
