[@gaelbgalbar9307]

Yea, and a kick like this can't shoot correctly without hands techniques before.

[@badassjeezilum9464]

hahahaha wrong

[@Andyhaucqog1]

hahahaha Are you even fast enough or even have the reflex to even do all that tho is the question

[@Daniel-dc5mr]

can you film yourself sparring then analyze the footage? What you were thinking,what you did wrong, what you did good?it would be very informative

[@zalamael]

It doesn't take a lot of pressure to hurt the nerves if you aim correctly, so learning the position of the nerves is crucial. Also, prioritising speed over power is usually a better option if you want to hurt the nerves without having your kicks blocked (plus a blocked power kick will hurt you more than it hurts them). And as always, high focus should always be given to turning your hips into the kick for maximum power.

[@MeshaMichaelSavio]

Always incorporated muy-thai when I used to do MMA, it's such a huge advantage to learn all these different arrays of kicks to use in different situations.

[@Pahuyuth]

Nice Video. Very clear and understandable! What I have been missing is what actually "destroys" the opponents leg, when using a Low Kick. Such as strikes to the space between the leg muscles, or hitting the muscle attachments and the backside of the knee. Nonetheless I really enjoyed this vid!

[@sedell97]

Would love to see this as a weekly thing, I mean you talk about your favorite techniques and how to set them up, many techers and youtubers talk about how to trow something but not how to set it up. And I have some problems landing some techniques like the liver shot, head kick and so on. :) Love the way you talk about fighting and techniques, hope your channel keeps growing!

[@penatrationgaming6286]

HOLY SHIT!! the last move looked like some straight up ninja shit

[@twoblink]

I can hear Joe Rogan yelling oblique kick!! Slick moves. Thanks for the vid.

[@jkdlouisiana7541]

You're kicking is good, but I noticed at about 0:32 you're hands are positioned wrong. This is crucial to your kicking. You don't want to be side stepped then punched to the ground. When doing the round kick your lead hand (in this case your left) should be cuffed with palm out to cover your face is you turn for the kick. You shouldn't wait till you have already delivered the kick to cover.

[@rusharnmal7425]

For sports fighting kicks are safer because a lot of the moves that take advantage of a caught leg are illegal to perform. From my experience, kicks in a street fight are extremely risky especially against aggressive opponents that keep moving in on you. I have more then once intercepted and caught a kick. When that happened it was over for my opponent. Elbow drops on the caught leg can hyper extend or break the leg, or a kick to the inside of the supporting leg can break ankles or hyper extend knees. You can sweep the supporting leg and if you can get your hand under their chin power drive their skull into the concrete. There seems no end to the badness that can be done in that situation. Once an opponent has your leg to my knowledge there is not a lot you can do. More so being a south paw, I would start fighting as if I was a right handed fighter and switch my stance in my first combo. This usually put my opponent off balance. While rare, it is something you have to watch for because south paws are faster and stronger on that side then you would normally expect increasing the chance that they can catch your kick. Also if your opponent recognizes your fighting style to include a lot of kicks they will be watching for them. In my neighborhood the were muay thai and Karate training facilities so I got very good a reading for an incoming kick, sometimes even opening up to invite the kick so I could catch it. My advice from several years of on the street, gang fights is don't kick or if you do, keep it low. Strike for the ankles, or the top of the feet, where you can do it very fast at minimal risk of being caught and can be following with a combo, grapple, or body check. Also if you are fighting a south paw watch out for him stepping on you foot. Often when I go in I will step on my opponents foot, surprising and throwing them off balance when they try shuffle or back step. Often it caused opponents to sprain or twist their ankles. Shane, you have a lot of good advice and examples. Could you go through the risks of having a kick caught and show maneuvers of how to escape or counter when an opponent has successfully grabbed your leg. Street fighters that had their kick get caught were the ones I saw get it the worse in street fights I have witnessed and been part of, and I am wondering how or if they could have avoided what happened to them.

[@kungtony]

Great tips! I remember my kung fu instructore used to say a block is merely another strike. I see your opponent blocking the kick. They could simultaneously block and go for a push kick!

Cant wait to try some of these in sparring love that last spin kick and the stutter

[@Kanadiangamin]

remeber kids keep both hands by your sides while you kick as shown in this awesome demo!

[@mithshude]

not the style im learning atleast

[@dibhassan4584]

Well, kicks are to keep distance so you dont necessarily need to block.

[@mithshude]

MonkiBoi no, the front kick is but not the round kick. look at where the guy in this video is standing when he lands his low kicks. do you think the other person would be able to throw a punch from that distance?

[@dibhassan4584]

Yeah, but in a street fight i can bet the opponent wouldn't think of punching. They would think more about getting away and the hands there are used as balance

[@mithshude]

MonkiBoi first of all that depends on your opponent, and if youre attacked by a unexperienced person im willing to bet that hes going to wave at you wether you kick him or not, meaning that your tradeoff will be a leg kick vs a punch in the face. if its an exerienced person youll just get a jab and a broken nose if you try this without holding a guard

[@tammyryan9817]

Thankyou for sharing and explaining the techniques. I'll use them for my own training.

[@dvd32407]

my shin hurts when i kick my opponents shin

[@thejoker3644]

condition your shin. Your shin will get harder so it is way stronger, more painful for your opponent and you will not feel anything anymore.

[@nectemere]

Bs , work on your timing!

[@Michigan_Highlifter]

Just gotta kick hard things and condition ur bones I kick rims at work and don't feel a thing

[@salbroe2472]

I know this is very late, but if you do football, start to not use your shin guards, and as others have mentioned, kick things. Another thing you could do, which I do is just every time you catch yourself bored throw some punches to your shin for a minute or two; not too hard though

[@dinardinar2657]

salbroe how the fuck you gonma punch your shin

[@diosdadoapias]

The Muay Thai round kick depend upon the shin bone area as impact point. So the concept is smash your shin bone like a base ball bat. So its impact is very strong. this is also the way of doing roundhouse kick by other martial art style. Muay Thai and other style also uses the back of the foot as impact point and you can see this when they kick on the head. In Karate, the ball of the foot is the impact point for round kick on the head and on the body. This is like smashing the protruding part of a hammer head on the target instead of the flat part (back of the foot) and handle(shin bone area). if you compare this styles, the smashing shin bone and back of the foot appears very strong on impact while the impact of the ball of the foot is weak but truly the force is driven on a small, area the protruding ball of the foot like the protruding hammer head.

+Thomas Smith These take a lot of practice and sparring to do them correctly, if you don't, you'll hurt yourself more then the other guy. I say you put it off untill you perfect it.

[@Jon-tg8wl]

To be fair, some Muay Thai schools and instruction may depend on money that could otherwise be lost if this guy went into detail. Not saying that there's anything legally wrong with divulging said secrets; but props to this guy for at least trying to be thoughtful and in a small sense promoting the idea of going to a Muay Thai school. That's my take on it, anyway.

[@craigsphone1589]

[@amjadkhan6338]

Some martial arts are more practical then others in real situations, talking from personal experience.

[@sethbateman462]

Teep to the Knee (In Taekkyeon its called Ahn oor Gore ee) in the video your attacking the lateral side of the knee from a closed fighting stance. Very Dangerous. If the kick is thrown in an elliptical trajectory, going a little high to low then pushing the knee back/down/45degrees. Our basic version is from a open stance (left foot to opponents inner left thigh (just above the knee, then almost sliding down the knee as the pressure builds). Like the videos, honestly!

[@GRaToMiC]

my question: how do you know what your opponent will do, so you can react properly?

[@christianotto1637]

+GRaToMiC Get a read on them as fast as you can, see if they are a defensive fighter, or an aggressive one

[@GRaToMiC]

christian otto but how can you predict if they will kick, or ounch and what side of their body they will use for it?

[@christianotto1637]

The way they twist their body gives you a pretty good guess at how they are going to kick/punch

[@divine308]

Thats why I trick them by twisting one side of my body and use the other side to punch/kick

[@martyleyeti]

Basically if you're ready for everything from striking to ground and so on, you have better chances to read the next move whatever it is. Finally, the eye-distance stuff and a good footwork both closes possibilities for your opponent and also gives you more time and space to see the next move coming

Who's the chick

[@TheHazardousHazmat]

If you catch a leg and are unable to sweep by taking out there support leg you can also try to go up, my wrestling coach called it the tree topper, you simply lift the leg you caught above your opponents head and move toward them in a fluid motion pushing them off balance and onto there back.

[@ooohrob]

soccer kicks on a downed guy are the ONLY kicks u should use in a STREET fight

[@RKalnins17]

or the same kick between legs to the standing guy. Classics.. 😂

[@fighttips]

I really don't understand why someone would say you shouldn't kick in a fight. Do you at least practice how to defend AGAINST kicks in case you fight someone who DOES use them? Here is nearly 5 minutes worth of kicks successfully being used in street fights: www.fighttips.com/street-fight-breakdown-muay-thai-pt-1/

[@Castle_Nova]

nah ima use kicks in fights for an advantage, i think its smart to use it

[@ooohrob]

***** .....DEFEND....u teaching weak guys to throw kicks that should only be used in a RING.....some wimp throws that low kick at a bigger dude, prob get rushed in the face with punches .........u should know REAL fights last less then 10 seconds

very helpfull great work Shane

[@fransbauer155]

I have one comment. In my (kickboxing) gym (in the Netherlands) we get thought to either keep the right arm up (guard) or across the opponent rather than letting it "fall" to prevent getting countered with a hook to the jaw when you use a lowkick. So for example if I throw a right lowkick and at the same time my opponent counters with a left hook, without my guard my jaw is exposed.

[@babo85]

Very well explained. Thank you sir!

[@Asgardos08]

low kick to the upper leg first kick >turn out your left foot second kick >lift your left foot a bit before kicking you get a more powerful second kick

[@brianguimel772]

Awesome tips thanks.

[@kilppa]

My favourite was always the jab, fake right cross turned into a low kick. Mixing that up with the basic 1-2 seemed to work. Simple, but worked.

[@Bearded-Hippie]

I started training Muay Thai, and Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu in 2004....i can say from 1st hand experience, that leg kicks will really take someone completely out of a fight. If they can't put weight on it to throw punches, then they are as good as finished

[@chesterkickboxing]

Nosingle kicks good rule of thumb, you are the 1st person on you tube i have seen that has said/explained why not to do this. single low kicks seem to be a common thing to lead with in mma which I've never understood other than lack of muay thai/Kickboxing striking knowledge .
