The Three Things That Make For The Most Powerful Kick In The Universe!

By:


Whether you do Taekwondo, Kung Fu, Krav Maga, or whatever, what I am going to tell you in this article will give you the most Powerful Kick on earth. The reason is simple: this is the way the body is designed to function. This is the actual physics of the human form, not mysticism or wishful thinking.

The first thing is that the secret to a good kick is get your knee high. Yes, there is a leg raise type of foot maneuver, but this is more for quick scoops and strikes to the groin or inner knees. But we want to deal with the belly busting or head smashing type of move.

When you lift up your knee you raise your foot and then you are able to drive the foot in on a straight line. This means that there will be a more efficient line between your body and the target. Practice kicking over a chair or some other object to get this one.

The second thing you must know is to tilt the hips. This is entirely overlooked, and yet it is crucial. The hips are the cornerstone of the martial arts body, you see.

They have all the weight behind them, and it is very important to put this weight into your moves. Just a slight slant or rotation, depending on the variety of kick, is all it takes. The way to practice this is to fix a broomstick flat against the front of your hips and observe the ends.

The third thing is to make sure you drop your weight when you use the legs. This is the one that most MA instructors don't teach, and it is the most critical. Simply, machines aren't gong to work well unless they are bolted down.

Bend the knee of your support leg when at the peak of the kick. This will not only bolt your body down, it will cause energy to surge in the tan tien. This energy can be used in the kick.

These three tricks, and especially dropping your weight, should actually be put into all your motions. These are exactly how the body wants to work. If you want the most powerful kick on the planet, be it in Tai Chi, Kenpo, Gung Fu, or whatever, then these are the three things that will make it happen.
