    Read the FULL guide on the Muay Thai Low Leg Kick: www.fighttips.com/muay-thai-lo...
    The low leg kick, or "cut kick" is a staple of Muay Thai. It is meant to "chop" down your opponent, little by little, and shut down their leg muscles. After a few leg kicks, your opponent will not be able to put any pressure on that leg, so their footwork, kicks, and punches will be virtually useless. Make sure you practice the Muay Thai kick often, and master it, so you can "chop" your opponent's legs down!

    In my Muay Thai class my instructor didn’t go into every small detail in how to properly kick so I was extending my leg to early and in my session yesterday I remembered this video and my kicks nearly doubled in strength as they allow you to push in with your hips more on contact

      Stockton Muthafuc*a don't act like you can do it, you have to master the pain and keep up your pace. Otherwise, you might as well lose. For me, I practice mixed martial arts for 4 years and still kicking. Try not to act super macho when that time comes for you.

    This was very helpful. watched 5-10 videos searching, usually the same thing, a good set up, quick, simultaneously and good intent with advertising and actual reward. So, I appreciate it. I also absolutely need self defense and have learned how important kicks are as distance, knocking weapons away for more advantage theoretically, and set-ups in street fights to give balance advantage, not that I can do all this properly point is I've gotten my kicking better this year, learned to summon demons , and this helps a lot. thx.

    In fact, no rotation with the other leg hurts on the hip and knee and isnt that good in the future. So after many years of Martial arts i allways wonder how much important stuff i ve learned since i am in MT about body moving, rotation, technique and spirit of kicks, blocks and ellbows i NEVER was teached in TKD, HKD or Modern Arnis. Thats why MT fighters are that dangerous. I regret to waste so many years in the wrong MA but now i do my best. Thanks esp Shane for your great tips, and even i am 54 yrs now and just in MT for a few months i think my understanding about kicks and stances are better than ever.

    A number of Ajahns actually teach no quad extension at all, 100% of power coming from the twist and swing of the hip, and an almost straight loose leg. This also delivers a punishing blow, in general leg kicks are amazing and if legal in your sport should always be a focus.

    The 3 checkboxes at the beginning and the end of this video are so important. The video was cool, but the encouragement to only fight in self defense and not be a bully is so important, that those checkboxes alone were worth giving this video an upvote. Plus, nowadays, with video cameras everywhere and social media sharing and cloud storage and the internet, the likelihood of being caught and punished if you misuse martial arts is really high, and getting in trouble with both the police and the general public is very probable.

    You don't extend the leg in Muay Thai like that, you keep the knee slightly bent as you make contact but you don't extend as you reach the target. That makes it less powerful and is more of a Karate style kick.

    • @andresao6109
      @andresao6109 6 ปีที่แล้ว +2

      I agree, in my opinion for middle and high kicks even if you hit with the shin you extend the leg in sort of a whip motion. For low kicks i've found out with the years that it is more effective and powerful to not extend the leg and it hits more like a bat instead of a whip.
