Hey man,

 

When i got one of my friends into HapKiDo he had the same problem only with the crescent kicks. He just had a weak muscle joining onto his hip or something (so the physiotherapist told him) and he was manipulated and clicked until eventually the problem went away.

 

It didn't hurt him either but it made a loud clicking noise and it was a bit off-putting...

try long muscle stretching very slowly with no bouncing. if you have any pain or discomfort back off...take it very slowly and take your time. don't push it because over time it will come.

 

i agree if you have pain or discomfort that persist, consult a physician.

 

remember flexibility is the key not only to the martial arts but to life.

Or you can just quit kicking like that. Training should be hard work but never something that will injure you.

Hi,

 

When I first learned to do a round kick, I had the same problem with a "clicking" in my hips. All I did was take it easy and let my body slowly get used to it. Do alot of stretching, but most importantly don't overdo it or you'll end up in alot of pain and will have to wait even longer to learn it... :grin:

 

 

If you think something small cannot make a difference - try going to sleep with a mosquito in the room.

Yeah man, u need to do a lot of hip rotations, like putting ur hands on your hips and making circles with them. Plus repeat the crescent kick movement without extending you leg, just spin your knee over. That's all i can think of.

I had the same problem on and off for the first year I was doing kickboxing. I went to my doctor, everything. I finally figured out that most of my problem was my feet. I wasn't pivoting my foot quick enough when I was snapping my kicks back to my guard. Make sure u are pulling your kick back and pivoting your foot back in sink.

keep your hands up!!
