- Jesse Enkamp (The Karate Nerd) explains a kumite fighting strategy to learn the best moment to attack your opponent with perfect timing. This tactic is known as "The Clock Strategy" and can be applied to all styles of Karate - and even other martial arts that do sparring, kumite or fighting in general. WKF world champions like Rafael Aghayev, Luigi Busa, Douglas Brose and Matsuhisa Ko use this tactic all the time. Visit www.karatebyjes... to learn more!

I actually have a kumite fight in a couple hours.
Dude that’s perfect! Try this strategy and let me know how it goes 😄
Oh boy good luck 👍
Good luck!
you got this mate
Show them whose the real papaya.
A video on tai sabaki will be good idea.
ALWAYS! So many don't place enough importance and emphasis on footwork and evasion. Perennial movement is key!
Thanks! I have 27th march tournament
Hey Jesse it’s Brandon, I was wondering if you could give some fighting tricks or training for a kyokushin practitioner?
Same here
Best time to attack and best time to hold back ? Especially an opponent with longer reach that just stands there and waits... hmmm frustrating 🤔
I’ve made that video, check out my channel 👍
How would you apply these rules to fighting Chuck Norris
1: He’s almost certainly better than me
2: Time waits for no man unless that man is Chuck Norris, so hard to say when the first quarter, half or last quarter is
3: Chuck Norris never retreats, he just attacks in the opposite direction
I study chuck norris Style American Kenpo Almost directly under ed parker. i really want to get better but im having troubles because i had a rank up and got placed in advanced after 2 years.
Strategy to deal with different types of opponents. Like some are aggressive, some are defensive and some people keep switching between aggressive and defensive.
You could make a video about fear/insecurity/stress. Everyone preps and trains for a fight. Everyone has a strategy/plan. Sometimes though the stress or fear can be overwhelming and even though you might have been a better fighter but eventually lose cause of these factors. Some people will say it goes away with time/practice/experience or say to stay away from martial arts. I believe fear or stress are just emotions that someone can overcome with the proper instructions. Are there ways, perhaps techniques that new and old practitioners can implement in their training to overcome these frustrating emotions or is time the only remedy? Thank you.
For me the most difficult is to hit my opponent hard. I''m still worried about hurting them 😅😅
Same lmao what a problem
@@Venik75 same over here
yes !!!! need help with this
Oooh, me too
They signed up for it. Let em have it. Besides, if you don't push them, you are denying them chances to improve and therefore not being a great training partner. You're also teaching yourself to hold back and therefore denying yourself improvement as well. That's not saying to let go of self-control but don't be scared to apply some force and skill. Approach your battles with confidence, choose them wisely though. They'll either power through the pain and grow stronger, or they will quit. That choice is theirs, yours, alone. The key is to determine how hard you can hit them without hurting them too much. You don't wanna break your partner but you do wanna give them a realistic sense of combat as well. Obviously these rules differ in actual confrontations. In which you'll wanna do whatever you have to do but just know if you hurt them too much, you risk legal trouble. But if lives are threatened then I say anything goes, prefer not to kill but if you absolutely have no other choice but death, your life or theirs, then I mean.... ya know. ;)
Hey Jesse, I’m a brown belt in taekwondo, I’ve been sparring with black belts since day one and hardly ever score a hit, but I used this technique and managed to score six hits on someone that would usually easily beat me
Great video!
My problem is mental. Pulling the trigger to attack and I usually get performance anxiety before/during every tournament. I tend to think during Kumite as well when I should be more fluid.
Give me a microphone and I’ll perform karaoke no problem in front of any crowd but put me on the mat and it’s a different story.
Strike First!
Strike hard!
Cobra Kai for life
Ha,ha,ha, hilarious.
Wish me luck, travelling to England for a kickboxing tournament right now 😅
I know some moves, but you helped me how to protect myself more than i knew before thanks!
P.S:I'm practicing taekwondo, federation: ITF
Thx Jesse. What about an older Karateka facing a younger opponent?
Great video suggestion, thanks!
I put pressure, but not by constantly beating, keeping up the body pressure, always going forward a bit and then release again. I keep him occupied constantly, so the younger opponent can not build his techniques. Because when he comes he is faster!
@@KarateFitTraining Interesting, I tend to counter fight against younger guys, try to frustrate them a little, cut angles a lot and then put pressure on if I see them let up or pause. Same idea I guess.
I have my tournament Tommorow iam yellow belt
That voice crack at thr beginning
Hello Jesse i got a questions it is in witch cuntry in sweden is your dojo in.( coming from Sweden to. jag vill början)
Can you do a video about... what's the difference between traditional karate, sport karate and points karate?... pretty please?
damn, that dude on the thumbnail got the tekken 1 kazuya body going
Have we reached a point in which the legendary Dolph Lundgren is reduced to “that dude on the thumbnail”?
My biggest problem is with aggressive fighters. Especially if they're bigger than I am
And then there's me, who, in last december, lost 1-0 a small internal tournament against a fellow companion, always been worse than me, because:
1) i apparently punched him "hard" (meaning i connected) in th face at the beginning, was warned, so stopped punching his face
2) was hit by a honestly good meeting-blow gyaku-tzuki
3) connected like 6/7 times, according to one of my seniors and one of the masters, and their video, with body kicks that the other masters, as judges, purposefully ignored
4) gassed out at the end of the fight, but still went 100% the whole time to try to recover, but obsessed with head kicks (worth more points) that could be more easily parred
5) the fella did a honestly good job at defence the whole time
I was still satisfied of having fought better, and received compliments by everyone, and i've probably gotten wiser from a strategy point of view, but it was still a little frustrating
Great Topic! The ability to immediately implement and adapt this concept is so crucial in developing a versatile strategy in any style of fighting.
Pleas a video about: How you get more relaxed in a fight.
Nice video!
IM PARTICIPATING THE NATIONAL CHAMPIONSHIP DEFINITELY I WILL APPLY THIS
How do you deal with an unpredictable opponent?
the biggest problem i have is that i hold back a lot because i am afraid to hurt someone, also the sahbonim says i am to kind to my opponent.
They signed up for it. Let em have it. Besides, if you don't push them, you are denying them chances to improve and therefore not being a great training partner. You're also teaching yourself to hold back and therefore denying yourself improvement as well. That's not saying to let go of self-control but don't be scared to apply some force and skill.

Your enemy is also watching this video 😂
I don’t want the fight to stop. I want to keep going. I feel like, after the fight, I’m empty.
Sorry but I disagree with the last one
Why did this come out the day after my fight
The struggle I have is that my opponent comes in with a bull rush the whole match and doesn't even give me a chance to attack. (I practice kyokushin so the match isn't stopped when you hit someone.)
Prof Snorman
More lateral movement to his weak side
When someone bull rushes me, what helps me is I imagine a circle around me and the moment my opponent enters that circle I anticipate his attacks. Usually if he's bull rushing you, instead of backing away you should stand your ground and clash with him and try to strike first before he reaches you. That way even if you don't land a hit on him he will probably be more cautious the next time because he knows you're not gonna run away, which gives you the oportunity to take the iniciative.
Kilcher, thanks for the great tip. I will try it the next time I go to the dojo but it looks really promising.
I would definitely look at moving to their angles. People who do a bull rush is considered a tiger fighter in my art so to defeat them you need to act more like a leopard fighter. Tigers will go straight in a line aggressively so by going off that center line they'll need more energy and time to change their direction. So working on quick footwork and making sure you step off to their angles can help with that.
@@profsnorman5626 No problem, glad I was able to help
Let's see I could have a gold medal
Hello Jesse,
Great video ❤ But I'm afraid you mixed up at 6:10 the clock symbols for better and worse fighters 🤔
Can you make a video about teaching kids classes?
Aah, maybe I missunderstood it 😅 I thought the point of view is the opponent, not yourself, e.g when the opponent is better etc. But your explanation makes sense, thank you 👍
I don’t do tournaments but love the video
My biggest challenge is honestly the fear and acceptance that im going to get hit, not in the body but in the face. The only reason i have reasonably less fear about it now is because its happened sparring amongst friends, one being just above my weight class (me being 140/145 regularly, and him being about 165/170). And the 2nd time being 290 which is literally twice my size. Both lead to concussions, match one took about 3 punches at maybe 50-70% power from his side, and the 2nd took a single hook and little to no effort. Now obviously getting hit that hard in the head isnt the safest or best way to overcome this fear, but thats what it took for me, and even now im a little hesitant about whether my fear is still lingering or not. Not sure if you have a video about this fear, but if not then maybe you could make one ?
How win my first karate fight
This video was uploaded 1 day after my competition.😫
Your competition was one day too early... ask for a refund 😎
@@KARATEbyJesse haha😂😂
I’m a slim shorter guy and I always seem to struggle with opponents that are much bigger and stronger than I am. Any tips would be very helpful. I really liked this video and found this strategy to be very insightful thanks for posting it I will be sure to remember this in the future.
Karate Nerd! I love your videos man! Could you make a video on training to not flinch in a fight? Would be a great help! Thanks! Keep being awesome man!
guys whats your karate style?!
Mines shitoryu like if u are too😊
Goju-Ryu :)
My struggle during kumite is I get nervous and I just defend myself and not attack. I let my opponent to first attack where he score a point and I don't get a chance 😥😥
It’s the famous fight-flight-freeze response... great topic for my next video! 👍
Jesse you are cool
Please answer
I'm at home now practising Gankaku for big competition 👍😎
Good luck man gankaku is a hard kata especially the spin or turn but I’m sure you’ve got it 👍
@@CwGuitar01 thank you actually that bit I've always found real easy. It's the finer points I need to refine to make sure I don't make silly mistakes. Oss 👍❤
Justin Stuart I understand for me my balance isn’t great so it’s not an amazing kata for me to perform. Good luck man. Oss 🤜🤛
@@CwGuitar01 thank you. Ive always had amazing balance from a child I think that's why I took to Karate so well . I could stand on my nose on head for hrs and I wouldn't flinch. Started in early 90s. Short break due to starting family but now back with a vengeance. Jesses videos enspired me to start training again ❤
Jesse, following this topic maybe the next video could be called “Breaking the Ice” most new students that have little to no kumite experience have a hard time deciding what would be a good first attack in a kumite. On the next video please explain some simple but effective moves that can both break the ice to get the adrenaline pumping and maybe even score a point to get confidence up. Thank you.
Amazing video Mr. Jesse, thank you very much for sharing this knowledge, greetings from Venezuela.
I think, my struggle when it comes to fight someone in a tournament is the lack of sparring in my dojo, we do some techniques and tactics, but those are with the partners waiting for the attack... also, those with my size sometimes they don’t go to the training... I’m thinking of that because when sometimes we do sparring, I feel like I’m really learning something because my partner is not waiting for my attack, they want to attack too.
Anyone got any advice on competing in kumite I have done a few competitions before but have never really fully got into it. Thanks 🙏 also could Jesse make a video on improving agility for kumite would be awesome !!!
Cool, noted! 👍 What’s your main struggle with ”getting into” competing?
Jesse Enkamp ,Yeh just getting into it and having the drive as well as knowing where to compete as I live in England , thanks for replying by the way!!!
My issue would be asthma. We didn't fo much sparring. I'm a yondan so hopefully my skills are still where it should be.
Asthma is a f*****, though I find it only usually bothers me during warm up. If I get through that I'm generally fine for a whole session.
@@notmyname3681 oh ok. What do u study? I'm looking for another dojo I'm the sf bay area hopefully it'll help get me back into shape.
@@Vanish94107 I do Korean style Tang Soo Do, UK based.
My biggest hurdle is turning the tide from defense into offense. I can defend myself pretty well, but I have a hard time being aggressive and offensive. I'm very traditional and I don't spar a lot so some of it is my subconscious fear of being hit.
I'd like to see a video on "how to move like Raphael Aghayev"!
.......just kidding.....
.....but it would be cool
Hello Sir, I realize you decided to compete with forms and you compete at the highest levels (which is way harder to do than just fighting) imo, but I am just curious did you ever compete in fighting as well? Or have you always focused on competition with forms and just training self defense. I appreciate your time and look forward to your response
That´s an interesting and great strategy. Well I think I´m gonna use that way of thinking in my next fights. 😎PS: I´d like to watch a video about how to deal with an opponent who fights in a defensive way. If two fighters fight each other who use a defensive style it normally becomes a bad fight because most of the time nothing´s happening, right?!? 🤔
Actually the jumping is really hard for me and I'm really slow in moving i get beating by a little girl and I'm still trying to train hard to get to her level by the way she's 15 and I'm 23 but we are both 151cm but I'm overweight and she's really fit and fast .if you could make a video about kumite for a real beginner that would be amazing. Thank you for the good videos I really enjoyed and learned a lot from you 😊
ImhAAAAgine
I struggle when fighting someone smaller, faster and with good cardio. I get really tired out fighting them. How would you fight someone who could tire you out? Or be faster then you?
In Tai Chi and other Kung Fu styles, they all habe these exercises that help a person sense their energy, or Qi (Chi), called Qigong. And I heard that the Japanese word "Ki" is the word used in place of the Chinese "Qi". Are there Ki cultivating exercises for Karate?
My biggest struggle is when my sensei says "You are responsible for your partner's safety" so I don't hit properly in case I accidentally hurt someone, because the last time I hit someone properly she made a huge fuss.
Not sure how to get round that, because if you don't want hit, why join karate?
I am getting older, I will turn fifty very soon. My karate is less vigorous than it used to be, and I'm looking for ways to improve while taking into account a body with less youthful strength and vigor. Perhaps you could address this someday, how karate can change as your body ages.
Hi Jesse.
I have just seen your video about Sansai. I hope you can make a video where you teach Sansai. Because I would really love to learn it.
From Victor in Denmark 🇩🇰
Also a video I would really like to see, is how to improve blocking speed/reflexes
I don't think my brain will be able to work that hard on the day of the competition. So I need a new method that relies less on the brain and more on flexibility and power
My Daughter freezes once the fight starts, any advice to overcome this would be helpful, she's only 10 and loves to spar
Ways of appling jodan kicks while on a fight (Point kumite and Full Contact/Free sparring)
I can’t hit them after every hit I say sorry and gift them something.
For me the most difficult is to close the gap between me and my opponent, maybe i'm not agile enough or my opponent is to good at "Distance Control"? . please make a video how to close a gap if your opponent are good at distance control. Thank you
I have cleared my state level taekwondo tournament but I have a problem of not attacking as much as I can I just waste time in the arena and my master complained me about that saying that I will not be able to win any other fight if my opponent is faster. So I wanted to increase my speed of kicks. Could you please give me some advice on how to increase my speed ?
Hey Jessy! My name is smith, and I’m from the shorin-Ryu style. In my dojo I’m one of the smaller guys, with shorter arms and legs, so I have a hard time getting pass guard, how on earth am I supposed to hit them when their arms and les are in the way.
I am struggling with oponents who give all in all from the beginning and do not stop kicking (usually high kicks) like a Taewando practitioner
Hi Jesse im always loosing to these 2 black belts at my dojo who r faster and stronger with more techniques that me how do I apply what was said in this video and what more could I do to gain an advantage over them
Am just a white belt beginner started karate last year but we had a long break for months class just started this month and we have a tournament next month .So am looking tryin get better quickly so I can win
I just did this yesterday on my promotion ,1min kumite 5-1
very useful video ... If I would off applied this tecnique ,the outcome of my last fight would off been different ... nice thks for awesome videos
Hey Jess, I'm having a fight in less than 12 hours 🥺 and how do I get to know how to rate my opponent level
I got a trouble being taller, because almost everybody in the "dojang" are smaller than me, so, the thing is that they get pretty close to me making my moves useless, how can i keep my distance on them?
i only need ur reply i dont need ur likes my question is that u had made a video that telling about 5archetypes which are opposite to ur clock rule do have anything to tell about that how can we change our own fighting mannerism according to our opponents
LOVE YOUR CHANNEL, Can you make a Video about some more katas
Jesse, hur kan jag skicka min Kata till dig? jag tänkte typ filma in när jag gör Ananku eller Seisan eller Vanshu, venne hur det stavas oof men det skulle va kul och jag skulle älska det! >:)
edit: Stilen är Shorinji-ryu
i know im late but don't say "what's cracka lackin" to intro a karate video ever again 🤣🤣😂
It would be interesting if you consider the topic How not to flinch when the opponent attacks you.
Make axe kick tutorial
Well, since you ask so nicely...
I'm fighting in an hour man ... should have watched this sooner
Jesse san..could you please make a video on how to commit in an attack?
You mean, how to not be afraid of fighting?
@@KARATEbyJesse yes sir, do a video on that

Some more teaching videos thanks😉😎☺️
En un combate existen dos peleas, la primera es la mental, segunda de la física, si pierdes la primera probablemente pierdas el combate. Es necesario estar preparado para ambas.
What about alternative training drills? I see people really enthusiastic about MA to the point where they fatigue themselves kicking and punching day in day out. Alternatives to prevent fatigue will be great. :)
Everyone is just so fast compared to me and they just hit me before I can react 😕
please make a video how to not lose my mind in a karate kumite compititation
how about some weapons fighting theory? I believe you call them kobudo kihon?
Pedro E. P. de Castro I have some tips. Avoid fighting unarmed against weapons. There hasn’t been a good system developed that doesn’t just slightly increase your chances of dying. Especially against knifes. My grandfather was an accomplished bjj black belt and a amateur boxer. He got stabbed to death. And he used to train for weapons as well. Just avoid them
@@MarthMain I meant USING weapons. It's a historical martial art that incorporates weapon use, I have no intention of using anything here as self defense, much less against actual weapons.

Thank you very much ❤️😊
I will try tomorrow 😜
