This is sometimes called the "Dutch" style kick by guys I've trained with, but I don't know that this is really an accurate, or even necessary term. Kicking is kicking. You move your leg toward the part of their body you want to hit. That's a kick. Some karate guy will probably comment down below that this already has a name in karate right below the guy with the anime avatar who says this isn't a thing.

I like to throw a proper full power leg kick out the gate. Sometimes, that alone, will end a fight! If it doesn't, it will sure make him weary of any follow up kicks to the leg... leaving tons of openings for other things to do? So, I throw, what I call, "my half ass" leg kicks... mainly to get reaction. If he stops worrying about my leg kicks, I'll blast him with proper full power leg kick again! A couple proper full power leg kicks in succession, will likely leave your opponent open for a head kick! Anyway, as always... much respect, cheers my friend!

@driver3899 5 лет назад

@@bobbybush1750 Good friend of mine spent a night in a jail cell (long story) and this agro guy in there with him kept trying to make trouble. Things eventually escalated to where my friend though it was about to kick off so he got up, quickly stretched both his legs.. and the agro guy changed his mind, didn't want any more trouble lol Just the thought of a good kicking seems to be enough for some people I guess.

@noway9081 5 лет назад

Ok, so this is kinda kick related. Could you do a video or two on what you do to recover between sparing and heavy bag work. The reason I ask is because as I've gotten older, I've had more aches and pains between heavy bag days and sparring. Not impact injuries, but I mean sore muscles from all the twisting and body mechanics stuff. Heavy kicking days make my quads tight and heavy punching tightens my lower back from twisting for the crosses amd hooks. So what, if anything, do you do so you aren't a walking knot of muscles between training days? You're vids are full of great stuff in terms of what to do when I'm on the training floor, but If my legs and back are a solid mass of knots, I won't even be able to make it to the door!

Your foot pointing into the kick. Lift your knee and turn your foot towards the kick, shin takes the hit instead of muscle, and your knee/hip can flex to absorb the blow. Still hurts like a MF, remember when Weidman checked Anderson Silva's kick and broke his leg?

This is something I was thinking to make a video about, but you beat me to it, and explained it very well. Duke Roufus threw a lot of low kicks in a slightly upward direction (your second example), and they did a shit ton of damage. it's good to know how to do different types of low kicks (or any kick) which you can use at different moments in a fight.

Show how to throw these same kicks with your front leg. It removes the tell. It’s the speed of a jab and the power of a hook. It requires a little more control and use of hip action to access the power but the brilliance of that is can come out of nowhere and can be devastating.

@griffonu 5 лет назад

Just a short note... especially if you intend to leg kick not with that much power, lowering the arm for the classic muay thai scissor motion, which is intended to generate more power, is not needed and is kind of exposing you for free, so to say. Opponent may very well eat the kick and counter hard with a straight or whatever and it doesn't have to be to the head, it can be to the body. He can even catch your foot on his thigh simultaneously with the counter punch so that you can't go back, if he trusts his read enough and doesn't expect a low kick feint - high kick strike. Yes, keeping the arm up while striking does lower the power a bit, but it's way safer and - depending on what the leg kick wants to achieve - this little lack in power may not be such a big deal. Keep up the great content! :)

Just be careful if you are not rotating on the base support knee. It's easy to tear an ACL in the support leg knee if you go too far with the roundhouse kick rotation as the support leg femur rotates and the support leg tibia doesn't. Then POP! That's what tore mine when I was 14.
