Am a karateka need helps on kicks and balance.


Recommended Posts

Leaning vack into a round kick counter balances your leg and lets you fit harder. The non-swing arm defends your face. This also brings you out of range of a counter punch. The swing arm can also be stuffed in his face instead of low.

A karate punch it is like a dasvasted stick blow. Instead, a blow of Kung Was is comparable to a lash with a chain that has attacked, allaltra extremity one ball of ferro

exactly. Don't swing all the way past the waist. when delivering a thai style roundhouse though, you shouldn't be leaning back - at least not the way I was taught. The step you take slightly forward and a lean in that direction is what will balance you.

Try bending your supporting leg more. It will put more strain on that leg, but it will increase balance greatly.

 

Also, practice your balance always. Put your socks and shoes on standing up. Little things like that, that you can do everyday, will get you there fast.

after all, we're not all stupid on this forum.

 

anyway, anyone else noticed the sudden influx of guys 'from' uk who happen to make the same grammatical and spelling errors?

 

You're always so suspicious. It's kinda strange.

If you can't laugh at yourself, there's no point. No point in what, you might ask? there's just no point.


Many people seem to take Karate to get a Black Belt, rather than getting a Black Belt to learn Karate.

Not trying to be sarcastic or anything - but shouldn't karate teach more about balance than kickboxing. Sure both require the same thing, but some of karate's complicated kicks require more balance than alot of kickboxing techs.
