On that same note, I ask myself: how can people dislike this. Thanks for sharing your expertise Daru, keep up the good work! 🤝

[@dorian655]

@@josemucarselsacoto5122 if you dislike videos, similiar vids will not show up on your newsfeed. I'm assuming that the dislikes are people who have got their dose of Daru and couldn't fit in any more!

[@nabilbousabir6793]

My exact thoughts. Just discovered this channel, immediately incorporated the content into my workout. No smoke, best workout I've ever done. 🙏

[@septembermusic3375]

Dude straight up these vids are so well done...

[@mikev4155]

Phil I greatly appreciate the programs you are putting out for us. I've done Muay Thai for ten years and since you've put your videos out I've drastically increased my kicking power and I can tell the penetration on the bag is nice and deep to the point that the skin on my shin becomes fire engine red. Though I'm 52 and I've served 3 tours in Iraq, parts of Africa and the Persian Gulf with an injury that required surgery and three screws in my neck(had to stop jiu jitsu) I still do about 8 to 9 three minute rounds on a heavy bag and follow most of your training techniques. With the training you put out you've inspired vets(I know a few that watch your video) that do train and others that has sustained injury to keep pushing forward. This video will no doubt make my kicks stronger and I want to say thank you and god bless.

[@PhilDaruStrong]

MikeMMA brother that’s great to hear and thank your for the support I truly appreciate it. I can assure you I will keep progressing these videos in due time and make the most out of your time viewing them.

Finally some one who doesn't just tell the viewer to just do kicks and that's it. Maybe videos about specific kicks would be nice. Like strength training for front kick or side kick. Loved the video though, very informative.

Is recreation the same as a hobby or different? Also which martial arts?

These days my friends says how you are so powerful they didn't know about my trainer thanks man love from India

This was an awesome video, thank you for it. But I did have a question. Is this an entire work out on its own? should I try to implement this before or after a training session or weight lifting routine? Thank you.

[@Jut37]

Hey Phil, what do you think of kettlebell swings or barbell cleans to increase power for all the forms of the front kick...teep, push? I've already incorperated 4 exercises from this video into my routine. Thx!

Holy shit bro! Wtf! I can't believe you did this! I really needed this!!!!!!!!

Bro I really needed this😭 especially for tkd as I do tkd

[@joshualouisa]

Thanks a lot Sir! Just came across your chanel and its what ive been looking for for a long time. Just a question, how long does it take to notice difference in power? E.g,Do you need to do this 2 times a week for a 8 week period or does it work differently. Thanks !Keep em comming

[@PhilDaruStrong]

MThedon _ thank you usually to see an increase in power it may take 4-8 weeks of consistent training you would want at least 2-3 days per week

[@extrememma4535]

Thank you for all these amazing videos. Just got your fightcampconditioning program. Question? How many times a week should i do these exercises??? Thank Coach!!!

[@PhilDaruStrong]

Mike Kimm thanks... 2 times per week will be plenty

[@bernardrosario3527]

Hi Phil, What are your thoughts on using leg extensions on a leg extension machine to increase front leg kicking power? I would think that light weight with emphasis on peak contraction and hold at the top is the way to go. Please let me know your thoughts. Also, Thanks for the excellent videos!

[@rosesforthenoddinggo]

Phil my man... do you have little nuisances and tips for supplemental exercises for bench pressing?? Huge fan, brother. On point

[@PhilDaruStrong]

[@orionrma21]

As a Krav Maga practitioner, and a former ITF Taekwon-Do practitioner, I am going to try this for sure 😎👍 Kicks are still my main weapons, although I'm not using those fancy 360 kicks etc anymore 😂 Anyways, my question is this; IF... I want to focus on all those areas you have covered here, how would you program it? 3 days a week on each aspect covered, or can they all be covered in one workout? Thanks alot for this video 🙏

[@tuushharr]

Hi, my kicking style is sorts mix of all the styles, i try to take the most beneficial aspects of any style and incorporate it in my own. So what could happen if i do a mixture of all the exercises you taught in the vid? Let me know, thanks.

[@ranpalsharma8048]

Would you elaborate about the ecentric portion of the lift. As you told that in order to produce optimal force we need to relax and contract the muscle. For example in deadlifts we increase power production more if we do only concentric portion. My doubt is that how ecentric movement hamper power production and decrease overall strength gains. I hope you understand what i mean... Thank you

[@abilashabi7533]

hi i am a kyokushin fighter which workout should i follow muay thai or karate and how often should i do it, Need your advice

[@OhSwxrth]

Hello, first of all I must say I'm very much enjoying your content! I used to do MMA and before that Karate as a kid, then I switched to bodybuilding for a while and now I'm back doing MMA. I put on a lot of weight and strength due to the bodybuilding but I'm now more focused on exercises that translate into MMA, but I yet have to find a good MMA gym and have to earn some money for the subscription (I'm a student). I was just wondering how/if you periodize weightlifting work for fighters. Do you use blocks, for example strentgh 4 week block - speed 4 week block - hypertrophy 4 week block - endurance 4 week block... or do you combine them into 1 weekly schedule or even within 1 workout? I hope my question is clear and I hope you can answer it. Thank you.
