    Struggling with how to precisely transfer weight for kicks and knees

    Thanks! This video helps heaps. Regarding stepping outwards, I think I need to "fall" instead of just stepping out and having two distinctive components to the kick

    You reckon this will happen with MT as well? Also, will there be body armour?

    Struggling with how to precisely transfer weight for kicks and knees

    Hey guys I'm trying to get as much weight behind my kicks and knees but sometimes feel like my weight is going back rather than forward. The bit I'm stuck on is the weight transferral after stepping out. When I step out, my weight transfers to that leg. But...I don't know if I'm transferring...

    Question but what are the differences between these 2 kicks?

    thanks! I have noticed a lot of thai coachs advocating that (learning how to shove your opponent with your leg after landing the kick)

    Question but what are the differences between these 2 kicks?

    Link as above. I've watched the video a couple of times and they seem to be very similar. Can anyone explain the difference please?

    Straight-leg low kick

    No it isn't. Liam kind of jumps into the kick - his support foot rotates and he kind of leaps into it (even if its a smaller leap). The one that my instructor does - the leg doesn't pivot and the trajectory of the kick is more up. The shin isn't turned fully over.

    Straight-leg low kick

    thanks! will look it up. why are the whiners coming? the person who kicked me was Thai... EDIT: I just had a look at chasse bas. Thanks for the technique video but that's not what I meant. The kick I'm referring to literally looks like a normal leg kick (in that the shin connects) but the leg...

    Straight-leg low kick

    Hey guys Got kicked in the leg today and it hurt like a m'fer. The leg was entirely straight upon contact with my thigh and the supporting leg had barely rotated (if at all). My question is, how does that technique work? I want to learn it as it seems very efficient and painful...

    Loyalty & Muay Thai - what should I do?

    Hey guys I'm currently stuck in a pickle. Any thoughts are welcomed. So basically, a new gym popped up near where I live a year ago. I saw they were hiring coaches so I sent them a message. My 12 month contract with my original gym was up and I thought I had nothing to lose. The new gym...

    Here was what Weili actually said

    Yeah I think it was cruel. WL (or any athlete that has been knocked out cold) should receive immediate medical care, not have to wait around for Rogan to finish interviewing the winner.

    Here was what Weili actually said

    I know lol. She used to have a very enthusiastic and happy translator/coach that translated quite well. But now she is coping unnecessary flake because of this guy...

    Here was what Weili actually said

    I felt the translator was a bit off. Here is what she actually said: Joe Rogan (JR): give us your thoughts on the fight, on how it happened? Translator: WL, how did you see the fight? what did you think just happened? WL: I think I could have made a comeback. I hope I get a rematch soon...

    Media Weili Zhang Shares Thoughts After The Fight

    She claimed she still had her senses post-stoppage. She didn't say it was luck or bad referee decision. Rather, she congratulated Rose on social media. She also didn't seem angry at Rose but more distraught she got KO'd.

    For those who have lived in the city and out in the country, which did you prefer and why?

    Am curious as I am kind of sick of city life. Everything is so intense and I'm not really enjoying what the city has to offer (e.g. night life, fine dining, clubs). Things out in smaller towns seem more chill and the cost of living (especially housing) is lower. Anyone want to...

    Media Weili Zhang Shares Thoughts After The Fight

    Nah the translator was just shit. I'm Chinese - Zhang essentially said that she was still conscious and could have gone on. That is different than saying it was an early stoppage and she got robbed lol (she never said or implied she got robbed btw).

    Advantages of Thai style punching

    What are the advantages of Thai style punching? By Thai style punching, I mean: leading with the shoulders rather than with the feet minimal foot rotation - power is derived from shoulder rotation standing tall - no "sitting down" on punches making punches as long as possible - this...
