Yes‼ more pls

[@stevenparksprints241]

Yep! 🙂 strength, mobility and flexibility work, particularly for hips / pelvis as it’s an area which many other sports pound and wreck!

[@tommyredline6432]

Bro I’ve just got to say, none of your videos disappoint. I refined my sidekicks because of your tutorial and they are now effortless and powerful. Great content 👍🏻 I’m gonna use these in my class for my kiddos

[@MichaelHetherington]

I love these videos. Feels like I get so much body training done in these intense 10min videos than in a full class sometimes. Thank u!

[@donavantkd]

That’s the goal! I love doing stuff like this when I don’t have much time but want to push myself hard haha

[@8ballout]

Pretty good. Just ten minutes but get your heart pumping. Thanks Donavan.

[@stevenparksprints241]

Fantastic session mate. I’m a sprinter currently nursing a chronic pelvic injury. I’ve just completed this session (minus 2 of the exercises and executed at beginner level!). I haven’t trained TKD since I was 16 and it’s great to feel the burn in areas which clearly have been neglected for years! 😂 it’s amazing to cross train to feel where one’s own sport falls down!

[@desodenis]

Thanks!! Such a great workout to improve my balance!loved it. Subbed!

[@kwuvs5150]

i love you so much, even tho i’ve been doing tkd for a long time u remind me that there’s always room to improve in something ✋🏻💞💞

It's been years since I've watched you. Got into a freak accident that shattered my spirit so I haven't trained for a long time now. I've missed your videos. I hope I find purpose again so I can get the strength to get back into training.

[@tanmayipl99]

Excellent conditioning workout. At 67 my flexibility is shot but this has helped immensely hoping to do black tag grading soon so will be doing this workout before every tkd session. Thanks Donovan

[@_maik_]

I bought your Sidekick Programm some months ago and I highly recommend it! Very good and detailed program 👍 Would be great if you could make something like that for Roundhouse and Frontkick as well + balance

[@therealmfwic9503]

Another great video! Thanks for the tips and motivation

[@donavantkd]

Thank you for watching! :)

[@Puma3381]

very good exercises I just tried yesterday. Some of them were hard I couldn't do all but I felt muscles working :D thanks mr. B

[@joelynnmarsh5355]

Really loved this Workout suppppper good.

[@nickjac2]

I very rarely follow/subscribe anyone, nor am I a frequent comment'er. But thanks a lot for the inspirational and motivational videos. I'm heading for 1.st dan in shotokan karate and just started WTF Taekwondo classes in my area. I especially enjoy the videos where you instruct on ideal stretches to improve kicking. Amazing!

[@donavantkd]

Hey super grateful that I was worthy of your comment. Thanks so much for supporting the channel :)

[@senzaforplay]

Thanks very much for your videos. I'm a Kyokushin karate practitioner and I am learning a lot about how to improve my kicks from your videos. Keep going!

[@anunnakihannah4460]

Thanks bruh, appreciate you

[@michaelrobert4094]

Thank you Donavan. This is really Working. You streching video also works. For some reason am less flexible in the front so I have included low squat - tounching my toes.

[@donavantkd]

Glad my videos can help! It's normal to be less flexible in one direction. You just gotta train it a little harder haha

[@steelroc78]

Wow! Thank you for this video, appretiate you taking the time to better everyone watching!

[@donavantkd]

Happy to help! Thank you so much for watching :)

[@ahmadalbab1256]

good idea ..

[@jacquelinebarnes8236]

Yess

[@heidirachaelpieterse5109]

Thank you for this! It's deceptively simple. Why does it get more challenging the more I do it? I think that I'm beggining to use the correct muscles for tu exercises, with repetition , and think this could be the reason? Also, when you kick, do you kick through the heel of your foot or the ball of your foot?

[@Hanna-cn2gj]

This is top advanced. Can I get the beginner friendly one?

[@roma23rus]

best!

[@user-uv9ls3zw2y]

GRACIO 🤚

[@Cynsantoyo]

Nice! It hurt, but I’m sure my kicks will be higher in time

Phew that was hard! But I did it anyways even though I couldn't do all of it 😗 I'll improve overtime

Hope one day balance

[@saeedseen5821]

آقا خیلی خوب بود

[@derkrupofficiel9753]

Dude now I can do side kick thx

[@astridperez6643]

Should I do this before or after your high sidekick video??

[@nezukochan6060]

Can you do a video for sparring tips please that would be so helpful

[@donavantkd]

My specialization is in kicking development, flexibility, and poomsae. While I obviously sparred in my martial arts journey, I'm not someone who feels comfortable making videos acting as if I'm THE EXPERT on something that I don't participate in much anymore. Check out my friends Alex Wong and Samery Moras. They've got some good sparring videos that may help!

[@themusiccorner7098]

Starting my martial arts journey today, any tips?

[@RajeevKumar-oe5nr]

Nice

[@BABYCOYOTE1]

My son loves Taekwondo but hasn’t got the balance... I will have him do this every day! After practicing Taekwondo for 7years (he is 10 now) where he is at right now is simply not acceptable... (mommy’s ego, I know 😞)

[@donavantkd]

Hope it helps him! Sometimes it really takes time because they're constantly developing

[@stegmonjurvinweirdt1834]

Just so you know I was a boy Scout. At 18 my Dad pestered me to catch up on merit badges for get eagle scout status. I pointed out that the whole time I was doing it for fun & myself not for him or the cool resume highlight.

[@danieltienly6944]

youre so good. have you ever gone to world competition tournament?

[@donavantkd]

I have! I don't compete much anymore but it was lots of fun when I did :)

[@Prodigalson0078]

Whew! I'm tired. Now I guess I'll go try this workout while I watch the video.

This looks like a workout for me. When do you recommend doing this, before or after a practice session? Thank you for posting.

[@donavantkd]

I'd do it after because you'll be TIRED afterward

[@garycollins865]

Donavan Barrett thank you Sir. I’ll do that.

[@SimranKaur-bs7vh]

I only couldn't do one the one where u Have to put both your hands down and then get back up in a kicking position whenever i get back up i bend my kicking leg sucks

[@Asnovich]

More like challenge hehe

[@rosarioluna4983]

👍👍👍👍👍

[@marihobger]

I like the last comment

[@ChrisKsan]

Your leg technique in itself is sound. It is visible that you have very good strength in your legs and gluteus. But with that level of precision and skill, why do you arch your lombar section so much into such a pronounced posterior tilt? Do you have a week core and tight abductors or is that a conscious thing? Do you have lower back pain yet?

[@MishimaToshiro]

Killer cellphone punches!!! Taekwondo has changed a lot 😂

[@ameliagobis9598]

It's hard for me bc my muscle cramp is fast to attack.
