    fighting starts in the mind.
    if you doubt your skills and yourself.. you already lost the fight.. no matter how hard you trainned

      Before the fight, listen to tone. If someone easily gets worked up, it's surely a sign of weakness. Even if tone is normal and no sarcasm, watch eyes, face muscles, body language, including distance. Watch foot/feet position (and hip direction), don't stress, and try to do what you train for!

    I trained a student who wasn't particularly athletic in this ONE kick for months on the Thai pads
    One day in frustration he asked why we didn't practice any other kicks? I replied that if he did this right in the street it would be the only one he'd nerd
    Boy was I right
    One night some guy tried to mug him and he instinctively threw the kick into the muggers leg knocking him into a pile of garbage cans where he lay on the ground unmoving and moaning in pain
    My major reason for teaching the kick is because its a gross motor movement and is easily learned and works!

    Unless you are a Muai Thai fighter do not even think of the round low kick. You can not do any damage.
    But you might injure your kicking foot if opponent blocks well with his shin bone.
    Sorry Sir but your Side Kick 1.07 1.08 is very poor. Not accurate and not powerful !
    You said you are afraid hurting your own foot with a Shin Instep straight forward low front kick to the groin.
    So kick with ball of foot not with instep. Your opponent will have very hard time to defend it.
    Also I recommend the 3 steps Tiger pass Side Kick closing the distance. See it in the TH-cam 9th Dan Taekwondo Test.
    Your tip holding hands high protecting the face is very good though.

    Good practical tips as always. Two things. First I remember watching the worst upset when Keith Jardine beat our boy Chuck with leg kicks. Worst upset and smart coaching. Second, I grew up in Detroit and fought alot of black guys in street/bar fights and doing security-related jobs like bouncer, valet, hood bartending and I remember when I realized that the knees and jaws were the best spots. I'm not trying to sound racist even though it sounds that way but I couldn't box with them and when I would wrestle I'd usually get jumped. I'm 36 now so I don't have to fight as much because confidence and kindness is by best weapon in the hood these days but most people don't expect a kick in a fight. I'm not a very good kicker or flexible either. I like the snap and lean quick technique. For me atleast. You can see in their eyes when it hurts or they really don't want none anymore.

    Pivoting on your foot to throw a low kick is a pretty fine motor skill itself. The fact that you may have trained it enough to no longer feel that, shows that other fine movements can be trained as well...

      I am 65 and I tell you do not try fancy stuff in a street fight. No leg kicks no high kicks no circular spinning back kicks. No jumping flying kicks.
      Just simple groin kick with ball of foot will do.
      But you must train to be accurate. Like throwing darts to the Bulls Eye.

    I've trained on the heavy bag with that muai thai leg kick for awhile now and I have it down. But my main concern while throwing it is the attacker coming forward with a haymaker or a straight punch while I'm doing it. I already keep my hands near my face while throwing the kick, though, because I know that punch is probably coming.

    A straight thrust kick to the lower abdomen is much more ingrained and natural instinct for a human than a round kick.
    And a round kick doesn’t stop a charging opponent. It’s a ring attrition move used to wear down an opponent in time. No one cripples and goes down with a single round kick. And on the street you don’t have time for more than 1 kick in a short 20 to 30 second fight, especially against multiple opponents

      These r the best kickers in the world, no doubt in that. They are not as close to someone like Ramon Dekkers though. But dropping a charging opponent with 1 or max 2 roundhouse kicks to the knee joint, is really doubtful. Well your the expert, am not. I was just sharing an opinion.
      Yes but low roundhouse kick, can be executed even with real tight jeans. That’s an advantage

      every body type works different. for basic self defence just find a few things that feel right and practice the hell out of these. and i do mean a few, like one, two, maximum 4 to begin with imho. making the movements muscle memory so that when you need them, they just come out. this kick in this video is good, good range, good power, large target area and nice and simple: imagine a guy defending himself with only this kick in quick successions and being good, fast and strong at it. no, not the greatest fighting technique, but will get most attackers to back off when they find out "shit, this guy (or girl) has been practicing".

    Putting your hands open like that in front of your opponent is a terrible advise. You may get away with it if the other guy is using boxing gloves. but if his hands are bare or he is using fingerless gloves, if he manages to grab any of your extended fingers, you are royally screwed.

    every move you done you stayed on the centre line that will work in mma in octagon you went back to your stance after every leg kick you mention the bad guy not the bad guys multiple attackers when you go for the leg kick your going forward so after you make contact rather then bringing leg back to fighting stance you place your leg down to the side of body you exposed so you can open up with a hook to side of face and most important reason for this you can now see who is behind you its called scanning if you dont do this you dont know who is coming behind you and a simple push kick with controled aggression rather then leg kick becaues of the distanec these two men have in video would put him down easy then smash the ankles so its over for that attacker do not stomp the head if you do that its possible you go to prision even if your fighting for your life and poking the eys is very effecting when your off the centre line its called the dead side he can only move that side of body now you can concentrate on his pals i study krava maga for a long time im no expert but i got to spend a lot of time with experts like eddie gaven tamir gillard and tommy blom you tube these men

    why drop your arm to your knee like Muay thai fighters when you kick, you are open for a left hook- lots of western muay thai fighters time the cross with the kick, if you are talking about street fighting- why are you leaving zero guard on that side?

      Depends on the range and extension of the kick...
      For a full extension kick, at the point of contact, you should be out of range for a lead hook counter. Also, if you actually land the kick solidly, there will be no lead hook counter! 😁
      But in any case, as you come forward and put the kicking foot down, bring your arm back up to cover.
      If it's closer range with lower leg kicks, THEN I would keep both arms up the whole time.
      But anyway, check out some Thai round kick tutorials on YT - they swing the arm back and down, to varying degrees.

I've trained for 25 years, been a fighter and a coach, i understand why different martial arts kick different ways and their fundamentals, i don't think any one system is better than another as they all offer different philosophies- i just believe that lowering you guard is something you shouldn't do, the modern coaches in MT are in fact teaching this, its only the traditionalists that teach it as a "must do" I'm out
