@@saraths6842that is not a side hook kick that’s a roundhouse kick with the lead leg you’re supposed to kick with your shins but depending on the martial art and in general on the lead leg you find people kicking closer to the bottom of the shin or even in some cases the foot but you’re gonna break your foot attacking legs like that with your foot
@@blacksenkohe has a more boxing orientated stance, not a muay thai stance, so its definitely kickboxing, everyone calls push kicks teeps even in kick boxing
Do you prefer the 2nd step lowkick ive heard its more powerful i throw my cross leave it posted and throw it all in one motion but ivd noticed you and jeff chan seem to take another small step in there
Yea and sadly now learning people don’t see this, they want to divide. It’s like judo vs jiujitsu people go from competitors to see which is the best to unruly hatred not seeing that they need both. One is clearly offense and the other is defense is all martial arts rivalries. I love the competitive nature of Muaythai vs kickboxing because I believe those are the best two in all honesty
@NightmareStrikingUniversity why sad? Please lets talk about this. The teacher's technique is awesome, lets not get that confused. This is not a critique on the teacher himself. I'm sure he's an awesome fighter. I want to get that clear before we begin. My commentary is about the coordination and body mechanics of that combo, and most people aren't very coordinated (starting out). There's a lot that goes on during the (switch) front leg round kick. I'm sure you know, most beginners have difficulty learning just the basic round kick from the back leg (push off, weight transfer, open hip, knee up, turn hip, extend leg etc.etc.). It could take weeks for them to get it right, and some never do (mma schools). For the beginner to perform a round kick from the lead leg is even more difficult because of the switch(or step) needed to create space for the hips. The most difficult thing isn't even the switch itself, rather placement of the standing leg (foot arch facing target) The teacher makes it look easy because he's a beast, but the coordination needed for that combo is above a beginners' ability. Sometimes fighters are so naturally talented (like the teacher) that they can't explain how they do things. They just do them, and because it's easy for them, they think it's easy for us too. Unfortunately, these fighters don't realize they have a god-given gift of body awareness and coordination that is EXTREMELY DIFFICULT to breakdown and teach to a normal person. It's like teaching someone how to Dougie (it's a dance from 2010, i know I'm old). It looks like they're just dropping, and moving their shoulders, but there's way more going on that people DON'T see. Anyway, what do I consider basic, but is a similar combo? Jab>cross>teep>right leg round kick. It's easy and intuitive because weight transfer happens right>left>right etc. The stance doesn't change and there's more stability. Another one is the Dutch boy. I realize that the OP's combo is probably for range control, but I believe the weight transfer just seems too unintuitive to the novice. What do you think? Obviously this is my personal opinion. Sorry for typing so much, but I'm interested in other opinions and overall education of the sport, and I want to know your thoughts.
@agookchild Agreed, the right round kick is a much more natural flow for newbies because it works with the natural mechanics of weight shifting & contra-lateral elastic loading. The right hip is loaded and at a better range to score a hard blow or sweep. Personally, I wouldn't waste a double lead kick on an advanced level guy. I throw a lot of lead kicks & have trained for over 30 yrs. My lead round kick to the leg is lighting fast & sits people down. I don't know how I'd do that off a teep with any measurable or meaningful damage. Unless you've got Bill Wallace skill or trained savate (which I have), no beginner is scoring with a lead teep to inside leg roundhouse unless their opponent is untrained or a motor moron. A better technique (if one must use that leg again) would be a side kick to the inside without replacing the foot on the gound. Then again 90% of videos I see can't even do a proper Thai plum nor do they kick from the ball of the foot or turn there hips over. Not say that's theses guys just saying theirs a lot of inefficient bs out there. I once was told by a Jujitsu purple belt that I lost my base with both forearms on the ground vs a hand & a forearm. I do catch & that's some bs. A forearm has more surface area & I'm lower to the ground so my base is stronger than with a hand down (far less stable & easy to remove) yet the purple belt insisted bc he learned it that way never understanding he is wrong bc he never understood mechanically what base is.
Coach would you be worried about being countered with a straight right Coming back in like that ? Could you hide that inside low kick on your end with a cross ?
Every single strike/combo you can possibly train has a counter against it. A good inside low kick has you leaned back a bit which keeps you out of range from a cross. I will also put my lead arm out as I low kick as well to prevent them stepping in with anything. Acts as a stiff arm to maintain distance. You could also step out to the right as you land the kick to get off centre.
…… No…. After 2 straight pushing strikes…. They won’t be standing in the same place for an inside low kick. I jab, low kick & uppercut all the time in sparring.
Is it just me or does he hit that leg with his foot too I learned that you only hit it with you shin I just started so I can see it wrong too feel free to comment❤
