Do you take time to condition your thighs? Once you start and low kicks aren't a concern you can defend the head so much easier.

[@adamtankersley7441]

Literally started leg conditioning the very first time I trained. And it’s funny, because he was literally just tapping my thigh with the top of his foot (2-3% power, just getting me used to the idea) and after 10 right and 10 left, I was dying. Haha. 12 years changes a lot of things!

[@abujasm2223]

I've been kicked and kneed in the hip repeatedly in three no shield sparring sessions in a row the same week and started having the most annoying pain and can't have pants on ever since. And now thanks to you guys i know what it is, a "tensor fascia latae" injury! I woke up at night every night for a week and couldn't walk stand, sit or do anything without discomfort since then. Today it has been two weeks of recovery and it is my fist day i am almost pain free. Thanks for making this informative video! 😁👍 I'm taking one more week of recovery then coming back stronger. But I learned my lesson and will be shielding that area much better and will take some recovery time when needed.

Don't worry, he said head condition, not face, so you should be fine as long you can hit the face without hitting the head.

[@Shojushoju]

I’d love to see a tutorial on how to do the low kick!! I notice that high level martial artists like Gabe tend to “crouch down” when they fire the right low round kick. I’m trying to understand how to generate power as well as have a quick recovery and maintain balance throughout.

[@GabrielVargaOfficial]

When you crouch you move your head off the centre line. That's very important if your opponent throws a straight punch. But yes, I can make a tutorial on that.

[@Ash__Adler]

Another thing that can help with low kick conditioning before you can feel good taking them directly is holding a pad or kick shield on your thigh while someone else blasts it at full power. It's a common drill at my gym to take turns holding for 10 kicks each, then 9, then 8, etc., and then switching which leg we're kicking with to start over. I had massive bruises the first couple times I did that, but it doesn't phase me anymore despite often partnering with people who have a clear size advantage on me.

[@jeffreyfigueiredo1740]

That was absolutely brilliant guys! We incorporate this into our training at my karate club and it works. I was in Gatineau for a seminar a couple years back and the guy teaching the seminar was a Muay Thai instructor. We ended off the seminar with him and I exchanging leg kicks and after like 2 or 3 I was done. Then when I went back to my dojo in Toronto I asked some of my training partners if I could exchange with them and tried to do it on a regular basis and I actually got better at it.👍🏽

[@metrolinamartialarts]

Those are some powerful kicks - and Gabe didn't even flinch!

[@Drikkerbadevand]

TFL does flexion, but MAINLY abduction (lifting the leg upwards) and internal rotation (imagine rotating your femur, the leg bone counterclockwise) a lot of kickboxers have OVERdeveloped TFL muscles because it's basically the roundhouse kick muscle, it flexes (chambers) then it internally rotates (puts the shin into the cutting angle), then when you turn your hips it helps with abduction and stabilizes the leg through the motion)

[@muaythai.8474]

What a trio awesome for muaythai

[@angeljimenez9909]

Amazing video! My brother suffered a MCL sprain from a heel hook during rolling. So we are working hard with physical therapy to rebuild stability in the knee. However we don't want to lose stability in his knee via leg kicks a la Kevin Lee vs Diego Sanchez, so this technique of countering hard with punch combinations into a clinch engagement can really help mitigate the amount of leg kicks we need to take/check.

[@moustachio334]

Yep. The best counter to a low kick is a right cross. That’s why when I teach low kicks at the end of punching combinations. Never throw a naked low kick and land square like Shane is doing (of course Shane is just practicing a drill and it doesn’t matter if he angles off or not).

As a very wise person once said "Best defense is no be there". The TFL runs from the hip to the knee, so all those kicks were at the TFL.

[@crisgetcrucified6972]

Gabriel is so smart

[@WadeSmith-oe5xd]

If opponent kicks to your calf of your leg, you pop your front leg up into a front snap kick/teep into their solar plexus (or groin in self defense situation). The opponent's low kick misses, leaving them off balance. If opponent kicks to your thigh, you leg check with toes pointed slightly inward, using both bones and the meat of your lower leg to check. You can also parry with your hand if you are fast enough, but this is not "preferred".

Probably some deep bruising. Let it rest and then when low kick conditioning always make sure you walk away with minimal pain. Build up gradually instead of trying to do a hard session right away.

QUESTION: is damaging the knee joint a concern if you’re constantly taking leg kicks above the knee for conditioning?

[@GabrielVargaOfficial]

I've never had issues with my knees (except in jiu-jitsu). I don't think there should be much movement around the knee joint while taking the kick. And hopefully they aren't kicking 1-2 inches above the near but more like the middle of the thigh.

[@wemersomdasilvacaruso994]

[@bigdaddygucciabg836]
