Nevinyrral Posted May 28, 2013 Posted May 28, 2013 We also need to remember there were two types of kickboxig. One developed in Japan (mostly mixing some muay thai ad karate) and one that originated from american full cotact karate. And if im not mistaken kicking with shin was practiced for quite a log time in kyokushin and most K1 fighters came from that style A style is just a name.

jrharbar Posted June 26, 2013 Posted June 26, 2013 As far as i knowkick boxing was a merge of full contact Karate and boxing, yet iv always seen shin kick and never related kick boxing with muay tai.yet a lot of styles in karate use the "side step kick", doesn't really utilize the hip torque but muscle contraction torque to generate power and speed to kick and normally does not use the shin but the ankle to kick and i have been kicked with it and its a lot worse than the Thai round house chin kick. in reference it looks a lot like Bass Rutten mid kick from his how to kick hard tutorial.just in case you haven't seen it here you go: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AYvyn8wG8QI
