47MartialMan Posted September 16, 2004 Posted September 16, 2004 Tae Kwon Do=Kick Punch Way...Definitely the "kick" is in the front.
Little Dragon Posted September 16, 2004 Posted September 16, 2004 people who dun use fists in tkd r just not trying hard enough,punches make a lot of a difference..cuz when i first started out with tkd i always just kicked until my master kept reminding me to punch. ''I know what your thinking.........did I shoot you 3 times? or did I shoot you 472 times?''
47MartialMan Posted September 16, 2004 Posted September 16, 2004 Yes I know. But giving the nature of TKD, and per its competition, kicks seem be the stronger emphasis.
Little Dragon Posted September 16, 2004 Posted September 16, 2004 its mainly because punches dont count as a point in tournements,thats why masters mainly train students to just kick.My master always tells us to punch or he'll kick our * himself. ''I know what your thinking.........did I shoot you 3 times? or did I shoot you 472 times?''
47MartialMan Posted September 16, 2004 Posted September 16, 2004 So, he is going to use a kick, or you are saying that metaphorically?
