Goju1 Posted August 28, 2003 Author Share Posted August 28, 2003 Front leg kicks are my fav The are quick, less telegraphed, and effective. Yep, me too - I just don't see too many people using them, do you? They can be vicious to attack the leg vital points Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cross Posted August 29, 2003 Share Posted August 29, 2003 I use both. Front leg is quicker, less telegraphed, requires less movement and is powerful due to force generated from back leg. A mae geri with the front leg is a good way to stop your opponent in their tracks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sasori_Te Posted August 30, 2003 Share Posted August 30, 2003 I believe we have a unanimous vote for lead leg kicks. A block is a strike is a lock is a throw. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mArTiAl_GiRl Posted August 30, 2003 Share Posted August 30, 2003 I broke my right leg's bone a few months ago. I used to kick with my right leg, but because of the broken bone, I couldn't, so I had to learn kicking with my left leg, though I'm right-handed. In that way, I started to do better front leg kicks. lol Kill is love Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sasori_Te Posted August 31, 2003 Share Posted August 31, 2003 I think we all agree back leg kicks are effective too, but we were specifically discussing front leg kicks. A block is a strike is a lock is a throw. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
