Every single one of your videos someone comments that you're underrated and I 100% agree!! This is some of the best football content on TH-cam. Well researched, explained, high quality editing, no bullshit! My new favorite training channel for sure!! Keep it up!!
Wow, I wish I had these videos to help me 15 years ago! Never really practiced my technical skills when I was younger but you are clear and efficient explaining everything. Despite playing for a long time (not very regularly anymore unfortunately) I'm still picking up plenty of things that I'd never really thought about. For anyone reading this - our brain is our biggest weapon! Practicing with these videos in mind will improve you much much quicker than practicing passively.
well said mate. I'm 35 now and I've picked up playing football again after almost 10 years of inactivity (and i've played 16 years straight from 6 to 22 years old). you never stop learning, but a good football academy as a youngster can turn you from trash into gold.
I just got back from the field thinking I need to improve my power and this video popped up within seconds of opening TH-cam. Unbelievable. It also does what I've always hoped a TH-cam tutorial would do: 1) explain what happens inside the boot, and 2) give principles that generalise to my personal shooting style and not to change it. It's quality content and I'm just stunned by the serendipity. I've noticed each of these elements before but never put them together or systematically worked on them and remembered for other sessions (I tend to go long periods without practise). It's such a relief to get confirmation.
I'm the proud owner of a powerful and accurate left foot.. I love free kicks and in my years and teams I've played at.. I took most of the corners and free kicks. This was a great video and I'm sure it will help a lot that struggle. That said.. I feel some parts were overlooked so I'll add this: "Kick with your knee" Keep your heel back against your hammy until your knee is down to the ball.. and then drop your foot to the ball. It gives a whipping effect Arms are not just for balance.. it's your bodys way to counter motion the energy from the twisting movement. Your arms should move at the same pace as your legs!! Mihajlovic.. Beckham.. Carlos or whoever.. in slow mo.. take note their heel and knee before kicking.. and that extended opposing arm speed as they kick!
@@lenninho5113 👍Phenomenal FK taker.. but he's not really one for raw power. Juninho cleverly compensates his slight lack of power with knuckle ball to confuse the keeper in ball direction. To beat elite keepers with roughly 3m to cover on either side is not easy! Kicking is like a golf swing or tennis serve.. focus on proper technique to get consistently accurate first.. having power is a waste without having control.
Youre the only football youtuber who actually goes through fundamentals of football, this is what the kids are taught in academies. Love it. Keep making these fundamental type videos, teaching the unspoken rules of the basic things in football !!!
Short, straight to the point and ver well explained. Currently starting on my football journey. And i am quite sure i will be using your videos a lot. Keep going and i am sure you will be reaching high places. Because your videos are true quality.
If i may i'll add a couple of things. There are 2 aspects of the topic shooting with power, 1: technique, which this video revolves around, and secondly: physical ability like agility and raw power. A few tips, the shot i tried to master through my playing days was the Roberto Carlos like all-in style from distance. As a big kid i grew my legs to a huge size(86cm thighs and 51 cm. calves) by doing a lot of accelerations on my mountainbike, i rode that thing everywhere, so those wide tires and always pushing myself to the limit on the bike helped develop quick fibered musclemass. I also had a thing with stairs, i never just did one step, i always did 2 og 3 steps at the time. I think an underated thing about shooting with power is agility and flexibility. If you practice thorough stretching after efforts, your muscles and ligaments will gain some length which in the kicking of the ball will add some free movement, which will increase power in the followthrough, also there is the lowering of risk of injuries. When i praticed i kicked as hard as i could everytime, that i think also gained power over the years, but could i go back i'd take 5 percent of the top and focus a lot more on technique. I got the power up to where i have never seen anyone kick as hard as I could, but my technique was flawed at best. And i could kick so hard that I was afraid of hitting the wall, that was always my main concern! I know as a 17 year old, that i kicked 127km/t that was the last measument of it i know, but at 20 -21 it was much harder, maybe 140-150 km/t. The ball whistled in the air! Anyway I could talk for hours about that, but this is getting long, so tha'ts it for me:)
have not started video, but heard you said right in the beginning, ANGLE OF THE BODY, and i just realized this now at 27 years old. in every sport, in everything, whenever it feels awkward, especially trying to switch sides, dribling with left instead of right, Throwing something with your left hand (feeling like a girl), or whatever it is, i figured out last week, that if i slow down my movements when doing it with one side, no matter if it is hockey, throwing, football or snowboard, i found that if i try with the other side, my upper body rotation goes the same way, making it feel awkward. just by fixing the way i rotate my body, suddenly learning to do anything with the "Wrong" foot/hand, got wayyyyyy easier. been looking for content that goes into detail like that in football for a week now, and this just popped up, so good on you for teaching stuff that nobody talks about, but that is actually more important than most other tips. biomechanics is so overlooked in football, they just say lock ancle and kick at this point in the ball.. Kick how? how do i kick to get power, what does the upper body do, do you counterrotate? when? how do i maximise the snap at the ball, how much do we bend the knee? do you pull the enitire leg back, or just the lower leg, creating more angle? or should we have less angle?... soooo many questions, haha hopefully you explain in your videos, exited to watch now! Also, heard somewhere to kick with the knee, and not being able to try it yet, just doing it in the air, it makes alot of sense. THe foot gets sooo much speed when it snaps out at the ground.
Bruhh, what you described at the beginning is literally me. Sometimes when i get a perfect shot, i just can't reproduce it. Thanks so much for your vid 🙏
You are insane and incredible at explaining. I've sucked at shooting forever and Ive tried yt videos so often for tips and they're usually hard to follow. I haven't put your instruction to practice yet, but tomorrow I plan to and now I have a better idea of what I should try. Thank you so much bro! Love your videos and you're leaving such an amazing impact
Great video, love the way you delivery the detail. I do some coaching and experience has shown me looking at the target prior to striking the ball produces the optimal results. Lots of people miss the goal or strike the ball at the goal keeper and this is due to either not looking into a corner or looking at the keeper. When we look at a small point in the distance our subconscious works out the distance and location, subsequently it programs our body with the target to strike too. Humans do it all the time - playing darts, playing snooker, throwing a cricket ball (bowling too). Hope this is helpful and please keep sharing your content. 👍
I've been trying to figure out how to kick that ball for years (I'm 67 and started playing at 22). Read articles and watched videos, and this is the first one to show me where my toe should be relative to the ball. Also the first to tell me my leg should be straight on contact (maybe that's obvious, but to hear it helped). It would still help to know how many inches to the side of the ball my foot should be, but I think I can figure that out.
Found your channel by complete chance and I think I’m witnessing a potential 1 million+ sub channel in its embryo phase. This isn’t a coincidence mate, your videos are amazing and I’ll definitely be trying these tips out in games. Just a request, could you maybe do a video on how to improve your stamina and general fitness?
Best video on shooting power on the internet so far. Been searching for this for years and watched everything I've found. This had loads of concepts that I have never seen explained elsewhere. Multiple lightbulb moments!💡
used to have great shot power in both my legs until i injured my right knee. changed my playing style and position to compensate, but now shooting feels so foreign to me. i've since rehabbed my knee and i'm trying to relearn how to strike a ball again.. cant wait to try your tips at the field.
this was my first immediate sub in a loooong while (after watching your knuckleball vid) this is really peak quality TH-cam football content EDIT: I wouldn’t say underrated since the channel is fairly new and will inevitably get all the attention it deserves eventually !
Thanks sir. I started playing futsal after 2 years of not footballing and I realized I don’t have the muscle memory anymore. This helped big time I’m gonna keep everything in mind
It‘s crazy to see, how fast this channel grows. When i subed, the channel only had a bit more than 200 subs and that was just 3 weeks ago. Now it has more than 11k.
This is a very young channel but I absolutely see it becoming a flagship for football tutorials. Two videos were all it took for me to subscribe! Excited to see your growth, man, all the best.
Best coaching videos on TH-cam. I've shared with my kids. Great videos for any creator to study too, great hook, pace, cuts, narration, and quick lead into the next video.
Thank you man. I found out the reason my kicks sucked is that I forgot to fully commit to my shoots and I was not straightening my leg correctly. YOUR A LEGEND
Hey king, remember me here after I am gonna support u bcoz u uploaded super beneficial techniques and u are so hekkin underrated bruhh.. FULL SUPPORT ✨🥂
Boy that might have been the first of the hundred Shooting Tipps Videos I watched, that actually explained me something valuable and new (the Part with the fully extended knee). Thanks!
Best football channel you always teach me good things and editing is fire. Also that Henry ancient technique really helps me and I feel like prime Henry when I do it ñ
literally the best video i have ever seen regarding shot power man. keep up the quality content ur contenet is the best for begtinners like me who dont know the basics yet
I was a good football player , until I saw your vids and got so much better that i can't explain, you are really very true and accurate but still so underrated.
Can you please teach how to juggle , i am really struggling with it , i can even kick a knuckleball , but can't juggle a football . I thought I would learn it later , but was not able to . Now , i seriously want to learn it. Please make a tutorial on that @The Football Folk
Hey I’ve been watching your videos for awhile now and your content is superb. I really feel like I learn something and I actually improve my game from watching your videos. I see a huge success in this channel in the future so keep pushing great content my man. (Btw I don’t know where you practice at but it’s absolutely beautiful.)
I just watched your knuckle tutorial and then I found this, your videos are super informative. Thank you for your guidance and tips. Keep up the good work mate.
Wow! I am tightening my heel but did not know about the toes. When I recover from my Achilles injury it will be the first thing I will try! The other things I probably know from experience and never think about them but good to know them in theory as well! Thank you for your video!
ty so much it worked i never though of that u had to have straight foot before kicking the ball. so i always shot with no power but then u taught me how to so ty
@@thefootballfolk you should blow up one day in youtube. you derserve it, and yes i got alot more power now and defently after a knee injury that changed my playing style so thank you!
what about when the ball comes from the side ex. left to right n vice versa where should your front foot placement be like how you said when the ball is rolling foward place your foot slightly ahead what should it be when its coming from the side
I did touch on this a little in the video, but essentially it’s the same thing, place the standing foot so that when you strike the ball, it’s close to the same position every time. It will slightly vary especially if it’s coming across your body, so timing and speed of the ball is key. Sometimes taking a touch before the shot is the only option👍
These videos are great. Straight to the point and very well edited & put together. I found you channel about a month ago and really do look forward to them when they pop up on my feed. I've always had problems with the shooting part of my game and never really ironed that part out. Keep it up, you deserve the subs coming you way!
I’ve been working on my own way too shoot and I was lost because I was using a technic that don’t fit me, until I watch your video I learn a lot from it, please continue your good work 🎉
as someone who has an obsession for shooting (almost 10 years of semi-pro in germany): all of these steps i had to find out myself with the only difference being that i like to use a "floppy" ankle while shooting the rest of the leg still has to be straight and tense tho I agree fully with the points made in the video, very accurate and important to place your foot in the right spot
@@thefootballfolk I have seen the technique I use mainly for knuckeballs; but not the one where they step over their leg and use the side of the foot, more like inbetween the laces and the inside with my foot stretched out in a straight line. Mostly for long range (20-30m) and power like near post shots, for closer distances I think it's way more effective to go for low shots into the corners, simply because it takes GKs the longest to get down there (my coaches drilled that into me, but rightfully so). Love your content mate keep up the good work ❤️
One important point you missed is to bend your kicking knee a lot. I used to have much more problems striking a dead ball because I kept my leg far too straight and thus had very little explosion from the leg itself via knee flexion. This meant my inside foot passing was really good as I had the hip based stroke down, but my instep/laces technique was shockingly inconsistent and I could only get lift and power when the ball was coming to me
I think your issue is you're not leaning enough to the side and your body line is possibly over the ball when you make contact. If your knee is over the ball it will never go upwards. Try kicking it as you did but push your hip slightly forward and follow your body through the ball. Lean back a little more and kicking knee behind the ball if you want it to go high. (gotta get under it to lift)
@@rizztaker1 Think of your foot and its motion like a cue stick when playing pool. Approach on an angle (about 45 angle) and lunge onto the the ball.. leaning to the side and lean back enough to make sure knee is behind the ball but also try keeping upper body vertical (body shape look like 4 to 5 o'clock) Going on an angle lets your foot contact more of the underside of the ball. *Side note* The fear of toes hitting the ground takes a while for some to overcome but leaning to the side makes it physically impossible. Put ALL your energy and thrust once your foot is a ball length PAST the ball.. and follow through is just as important.. so make sure your 'cue stick' leg/foot motion gives it the upwards direction. If you're in a fight.. your hardest kick wouldn't need a run up right? So neither does your longest distance kick.. 1 or 2 steps is easily done. Sorry bout raving on.. super passionate for FK's.. Good Luck man
@@rizztaker1 that’s hard to do because you have to kick dead through the middle of the ball.. the ground restricts you from kicking it flat without spin. A toe poke style would be the closest way.. but long distance in that manner looks funny
I've always been a more technical player. Shooting finess shots 99% of the time but they were extremely weak. Sometimes like you said they'd go flying and i would have no clue how. I've watched a few of your videos and i think I'm close to perfecting my technique. My current goal is to replicate the free kick performed by Roberto Carlos. Once i manage that i think I've neared the peak of my shooting abilities. Thank you for helping me improve as a player and I'll continue watching and improving! New sub earned ❤️
I`m an American living in Germany who knows Jack about Football, and my young daughter LOVES IT! Man, you and your videos just made my life a lot easier! Thanks!
Hey! Curious why you’re supposed to try to bring your shooting leg back down post shot as quickly as possible, would appreciate if you could explain that a bit more, thanks!

Can you please teach how to juggle , i am really struggling with it , i can even kick a knuckleball , but can't juggle a football . I thought I would learn it later , but was not able to . Now , i seriously want to learn it. Please make a tutorial on that @The Football Folk
Excellent vid!! When is the second part of signs you’re a good footballer going to be released?
Hey Ash! Glad you liked it 😁
I have a different video planed for next week, so it will be the week after 😊👍
Hey I’ve been watching your videos for awhile now and your content is superb. I really feel like I learn something and I actually improve my game from watching your videos. I see a huge success in this channel in the future so keep pushing great content my man. (Btw I don’t know where you practice at but it’s absolutely beautiful.)
Thanks mate! That means a lot! Glad you’re enjoying them so much 😁🧡🧡
ur videos are always so unique and unlike the ton of other tutorials that just say the same couple of things over and over
Thank you 🙏
ngl, i am absolutely mesmerized by you pitch and its background.
Good video mate. You are one of the best on line.
thank you for these tip it made shoot alot harder
Yay!!! 🧡🧡
I just watched your knuckle tutorial and then I found this, your videos are super informative. Thank you for your guidance and tips. Keep up the good work mate.
You are so welcome!🧡
Wow! I am tightening my heel but did not know about the toes. When I recover from my Achilles injury it will be the first thing I will try! The other things I probably know from experience and never think about them but good to know them in theory as well! Thank you for your video!
I love your videos so much, the way you give perfect reasoning for everything helps me out greatly
So good to hear Bobbo!! 🧡
ty so much it worked i never though of that u had to have straight foot before kicking the ball. so i always shot with no power but then u taught me how to so ty
You’re welcome mate! It’s those little details that make a big difference 😁 I hope you’re able to strike with more power now 🙏👍
@@thefootballfolk you should blow up one day in youtube. you derserve it, and yes i got alot more power now and defently after a knee injury that changed my playing style so thank you!
You are super super super underrated I just learnt how to shoot with a lot! Of power all because of you you are the best person ever in the world
Yes!! So good to hear 👏🏼🙌
Best video or channel I've come across that best explains and teaches the art or skill of kicking. Keep up the great work. Subscribing.
what about when the ball comes from the side ex. left to right n vice versa where should your front foot placement be like how you said when the ball is rolling foward place your foot slightly ahead what should it be when its coming from the side
I did touch on this a little in the video, but essentially it’s the same thing, place the standing foot so that when you strike the ball, it’s close to the same position every time. It will slightly vary especially if it’s coming across your body, so timing and speed of the ball is key. Sometimes taking a touch before the shot is the only option👍
@@thefootballfolk thx 🔥
These videos are great. Straight to the point and very well edited & put together. I found you channel about a month ago and really do look forward to them when they pop up on my feed. I've always had problems with the shooting part of my game and never really ironed that part out. Keep it up, you deserve the subs coming you way!
Thanks mate! That’s awesome to hear 🧡🧡 hopefully this helps your shooting tekkers 😁
Simple words you are the best bro much love from Nigeria 🔥
🧡🧡🧡
I’ve been working on my own way too shoot and I was lost because I was using a technic that don’t fit me, until I watch your video I learn a lot from it, please continue your good work 🎉
Means a lot - thanks mate. Glad this helped!
Great video, I have never heard these tips. Excited to share with my kids.
as someone who has an obsession for shooting (almost 10 years of semi-pro in germany):
all of these steps i had to find out myself with the only difference being that i like to use a "floppy" ankle while shooting the rest of the leg still has to be straight and tense tho
I agree fully with the points made in the video, very accurate and important to place your foot in the right spot
Locked strong ankle will generate more shooting power buddy
@@soumyajeetmitra6958 yes but 80% power is enough, especially trading it for better accuracy and more consistent contact with the ball
Nice! Would be interesting to see your technique. Do you do this with all striking techniques or specific ones?
Appreciate the support mate 🧡
@@thefootballfolk I have seen the technique I use mainly for knuckeballs; but not the one where they step over their leg and use the side of the foot, more like inbetween the laces and the inside with my foot stretched out in a straight line.
Mostly for long range (20-30m) and power like near post shots, for closer distances I think it's way more effective to go for low shots into the corners, simply because it takes GKs the longest to get down there (my coaches drilled that into me, but rightfully so).
Love your content mate keep up the good work ❤️
Wich club
What an amazing channel hope you hit 100k soon 🙏
Thanks mate! That means a ton 🧡
What a good video will post my results
Let's go, been waiting for this upload!
Yes!! I hope you enjoyed 😁🧡
where was this channel when I needed it 30year ago. no excuses this days its all on a plate
I know right 😂
I love your content bro,,,,just subscribe today...but had no regrets❤️❤️❤️❤
I appreciate that! 🧡
Thx for the power shooting tips. This helps me out.
You’re welcome 🙏
One important point you missed is to bend your kicking knee a lot. I used to have much more problems striking a dead ball because I kept my leg far too straight and thus had very little explosion from the leg itself via knee flexion. This meant my inside foot passing was really good as I had the hip based stroke down, but my instep/laces technique was shockingly inconsistent and I could only get lift and power when the ball was coming to me
I think your issue is you're not leaning enough to the side and your body line is possibly over the ball when you make contact.
If your knee is over the ball it will never go upwards. Try kicking it as you did but push your hip slightly forward and follow your body through the ball.
Lean back a little more and kicking knee behind the ball if you want it to go high. (gotta get under it to lift)
@@djfunkychicken yo do you know any way to get more lift/height while kicking the ball?
I need tips that’s it.
@@rizztaker1
Think of your foot and its motion like a cue stick when playing pool.
Approach on an angle (about 45 angle) and lunge onto the the ball.. leaning to the side and lean back enough to make sure knee is behind the ball but also try keeping upper body vertical (body shape look like 4 to 5 o'clock) Going on an angle lets your foot contact more of the underside of the ball.
*Side note*
The fear of toes hitting the ground takes a while for some to overcome but leaning to the side makes it physically impossible.
Put ALL your energy and thrust once your foot is a ball length PAST the ball.. and follow through is just as important.. so make sure your 'cue stick' leg/foot motion gives it the upwards direction.
If you're in a fight.. your hardest kick wouldn't need a run up right? So neither does your longest distance kick.. 1 or 2 steps is easily done.
Sorry bout raving on.. super passionate for FK's.. Good Luck man
@@djfunkychicken what if it’s a knuckleball shot your trying to make it go high?
Same thing?
@@rizztaker1 that’s hard to do because you have to kick dead through the middle of the ball.. the ground restricts you from kicking it flat without spin.
A toe poke style would be the closest way.. but long distance in that manner looks funny
I've always been a more technical player. Shooting finess shots 99% of the time but they were extremely weak. Sometimes like you said they'd go flying and i would have no clue how. I've watched a few of your videos and i think I'm close to perfecting my technique. My current goal is to replicate the free kick performed by Roberto Carlos. Once i manage that i think I've neared the peak of my shooting abilities. Thank you for helping me improve as a player and I'll continue watching and improving! New sub earned ❤️
Thanks so much for sharing! So glad that you’re getting a lot out of the videos 😁🧡
Appreciate the video mate
I really like this channel because it thoroughly explains a technique unlike other channels who will just give the drills
Thank you Zuhal 🧡🧡
