For the people who say that taekwondo looks boring... it’s really not. I’ve been doing taekwondo for 8 years now and i can tell you that its a lot more technical to the point that even your foot’s position matters. Also, for people wondering why we use our front leg; it’s because it’s faster to kick with the leg that’s closest to the opponents chest guard. When using the back leg, it leaves us open for a split second in which they can kick us with - GUESS WHAT? - their front leg.

I do karate and I'm not sure if its the same but I use this tactic to create the distance (since naturally when u get kicked or punched you move back) and to trick them so they don't know when I will actually kick. You create distance because if the person Is too close it would count as a missed kick, so you won't get a point. Not sure if it is the same but hopefully a bit familiar.
