How to Throw a Left Uppercut Elbow | Muay Thai Fundamentals

The left uppercut elbow is a close-range Muay Thai strike delivered with an upward motion targeting the chin or central guard line. Execution begins by pushing from the rear foot while stepping forward with the lead foot to close distance. The elbow travels upward as the upper body rotates slightly to maintain defensive coverage and structural balance. After the strike, the fighter returns to stance to maintain positioning and guard integrity. In this lesson, Kru Jack demonstrates the proper mechanics and shows how to practice the left uppercut elbow effectively on Muay Thai pads.
