One thing I overlooked (you didn’t mention it but it was obvious from the great camera angles) is to shoot the ball at the level of your standing foot. I have a tendency to shoot the ball when it’s ahead of me. Great videos by the way. I watched the one about the ping pass. Awesome!

[@KreiderAcademy]

Absolutely! If the ball is too far out in front of you, you’ll really struggle to get the power and height you’re looking for on your strikes. And thank you! I’m glad you’re getting value from the videos😁🫶🏼

You can hit both left and right ? Power shot ? That’s crazy.

[@KreiderAcademy]

I can yes, but my right foot definitely has more power and consistency! I’m at a good spot in my progression but I want to keep improving them! 😁🫶🏼

[@Paget283]

Tip: hitting it low is better than hitting it high since 1, the goalkeeper high dives faster and longer than they low dive, 2. Low shots have more power since your using energy on keeping it high than putting power on it which causes it to be 20-30% less fast, but you want to keep it 5-10 degrees high still so it doesn't hit the grass which stops the balls momentum

[@KreiderAcademy]

And it’s also easier to miss the target entirely when aiming high. If you aim top corner, and you hit it too high then it goes over the goal. But if you aim low and the ball goes high, it’ll fly into the top corner😁👍🏼

[@marckuilder5746]

Thanks man this will help a lot i just have one question at 5:40 you say that you need to aim outside the post about how far?

[@KreiderAcademy]

Depends on how much curl you get consistently on your shots! Some players get lots of whip and shape on their curlers in comparison to others. My advice is to go find out how much curl you get on your shots consistently. Trial and error. Take shots and keep aiming wider and wider until you’re consistently putting it in the side panel. Then you know about how far wide you should aim for yourself! Hope this helps😁🫶🏼

Hi bro....I use the mercurial 5 boots and it is slightly longer than my foot.if I take a shot it dips or it sounds like a toe poke. My shots don't have any power.one day using my barefoot and I got good results. Pls help me to identify my mistake

[@KreiderAcademy]

There could be a few reasons why this is happening and I cannot say exactly without seeing you play. However, here’s some things that could be causing the problem: 1. Your point of contact with the ball. If you’re struggling to keep the ball off the ground then you might be hitting too high on the ball. 2. The dip on the ball is caused by your follow through. If you want less dip, strike through the ball in a straight line. If your foot is coming up as you’re in contact with the ball, this will cause the dip. 3. The sounding like a toe poke is an interesting problem. I think that may be caused by the part of your foot you’re striking the ball with. Use the thick part of your foot, right where your laces are to strike the ball. Also lock your ankle. This toe poke sound may be happening because your ankle is releasing as you shoot the ball causing your toe to come up and hit the ball too as you shoot. This will also increase the power of your shots. I hope this helps🙌🏼

[@AdamBahaa-or8nj]

a question not realted to the power shot vid but its important for me.When i try to shoot with curve it works but the bone that is underneath my thigh hurts anyonr know how i reduce this thing this thing makes ne shoot with less power

[@KreiderAcademy]

I’m sorry I don’t know how to help you with this. My advice would be to find a sports doctor or athletic trainer to assess it and help you if you can! Hope it gets well soon!!

[@AdamBahaa-or8nj]

Thanks❤️

[@Anay_Gupta]

Hi love your videos. But I can't create backswing while i am shooting and just cant lock the ankle

[@KreiderAcademy]

Why can’t you create backswing? Locking your ankle as you shoot is a habit that needs to be built. To work on this, have a partner toss you the ball to your foot. Volley it back with the laces of your foot back to their hands. Keep your toes pointed down as you do this (locking your ankle). If done correctly, the volley back will have power and will make a deep thumping sound. If you do not lock your ankle, the volley will have backspin on it and have a higher-pitch, popping sound. I hope this helps😁🫶🏼

[@Anay_Gupta]

Thankyou so much but when I try to create back swing I can do the follow through

[@Anay_Gupta]

And also I dont have boots so do the boots have a big imact on shooting?

[@Anay_Gupta]

And sometimes I also hit the ground while shooting.

[@KreiderAcademy]

@@Anay_Gupta the back swing comes before your shot. It comes naturally!

yo hey im new here but I find out that i always jump and shoot that results in bad power and oftenly bad accuracy any tips to get rid of that nasty habbit?

i also get that straight ahh ball power any idea why?

[@KreiderAcademy]

What do you mean jumping? Like jumping before you shoot or after? I’m sorry I don’t understand your second comment.. can you rephrase?

[@Fresry]

@@KreiderAcademy mostly before and i also have problems trying to shoot with the right part of my foot I normally shoot with my side of my foot or the front (toes) of my foot And yeah i get the bouncy shot not the Ariel type of shot i have problems with getting the ball into the air with power

[@KreiderAcademy]

@@Fresry My advice is to first focus on shooting the ball with the correct part of your foot. Master this piece first. Don't worry about power or accuracy or anything else. Then move on to mastering striking the right part of the ball. Once again, don't worry about power or accuracy. Next step, now you focus on removing your jump or hop before shooting. Just a simple run and shot, hitting the ball with the right part of your foot and in the correct part of the ball. Once you have these 3 steps mastered, then we will focus on accuracy first. Just try to consistently finish bottom corner. Even if it is bouncy and lacks power, that is fine. Finally, now we can focus on power. Adding power to your shots has to be the last part you focus on. If your technique isn't good, then attempting to shoot with power will just make your shots wild and inaccurate. Focus on striking the ball properly and implement the tips I gave in this video to improve your power. It will take time to start consistently scoring fantastic goals. As long as you consistently work on your shooting and follow these steps, you'll get there!! I hope this helps 😄

[@KreiderAcademy]

I don’t know! Kicking in soccer is going to use your quads unlike how they’ve ever been used before.. If it’s really bad I’d recommend seeing a doctor or athletic trainer to take a look at it but hopefully your body heals and back stronger than before soon!🫶🏼

I can't hit the ball with my laces it's like my foot is too big for the ball, whenever i try power shot i can only hit with my toes, and when i try hitting with my laces i hurt my toe, but i can hit perfect volley with my laces because the ball is not on the ground.

[@KreiderAcademy]

A common problem! Your standing foot is too close to the ball. Try adjusting your standing foot so that it is a few inches further to the side of the ball. This forces your leg to come out at an angle when shooting so you aren’t straight over the ball. And that results in your toes not hitting the ground when you shoot if you’re striking the ball properly. You also need to lean to the opposite side of the ball as you shoot. This will help you maintain your balance as you shoot. I know this is a lot. It will take lots and lots of practice to master so don’t be discouraged if it’s takes months to get down! Keep working hard and it’ll come with time and practice😁🫶🏼

[@SimplyAnAxolotl.official]

The jumping is a habit now lol

[@user-jt8ru2jp7w]

My problem is that if I lock my foot angle it go like a grasscutter not a power shoot

[@KreiderAcademy]

Does your shots have backspin on them like grasscutters do?

[@Andrei1234]

Why do you bend your standing leg ?

[@KreiderAcademy]

This happens for a couple of reasons. Firstly, it allows your shooting leg to strike lower on the ball more easily since your hips are lower than if you were up straight. Secondly, and more importantly, it helps for body stability. As you shoot you’re putting a lot force through your standing leg. If you have a straight knee as you shoot, you are not allowing any additional movement in that leg in its current position. Whereas if your knee is bent, the force can dissipate by causing your knee to straighten out first. Your follow through landing on your kicking foot also helps your body deal with the force. This is the long way of saying that having your knee bent will reduce the risk of hyperextension of your knee from shooting. Hope this helps😁🫶🏼

[@omarcantburnwater4418]

bro i swear im doing everthing correectly but i still dont even know how to gte the ball high or strike with power....

My advice is to have a friend record you shooting from back and side angles in slow motion so you can slow it down and really analyze your technique. If you do this and upload it to KZbin let me know and I’ll take a look👍🏼

Why my ankle does not locked

[@KreiderAcademy]

That’s totally natural! You just have to master the habit so it becomes second nature to lock your ankle as you strike the ball. My advice for players struggling with this is to do this drill every time you train. Get a partner and have them 3-5 yards away from you with the ball their hand. Have them toss the ball to your feet so you can volley it back to their chest with your laces. Do 20-30 reps every time you train. To lock your ankle, point your toes downward as you volley it back to him. If your ankle is locked, the ball will travel back to your partner’s chest without any spin on the ball. If your ankle is not locked, the ball will have backspin as it goes back to your partner. I hope this helps😁🫶🏼

[@GpmMaster]
