[okulalanyuru]

[PowerHouseKickboxing]

Thank you guys! I really do appreciate your recognition. More videos are coming soon.

Best,

K

[TiminPhoenix]

He knows the subject and knows how to teach.  That's an all too rare combo.

[jajbee]

one of the best tutorials if ever seen on youtube goodjob

[sexymalcom1970]

Verygood technique really impressed maximum power from kicks are assured using this training vid.

[bowerybaker]

you're a good coach

[lawman1971b]

you are a great master and a great person cause u give allways the correct info and instructions! thank you!

[nhbmartialarts]

Your a good teacher!!!

[monteskinhead]

great video!

[Daski69]

What is the meaning of kicking in a "bow"? Does gravity make it more powerful or is it just a feint?

[rickettystreet]

Thank You.

[VERAVOOTA]

Hey , wow you are really great !!!! How long have you been doing kickboxing for ?

[mddaredevil]

have you competed in any serious circuits like k1?

[TheMuayThaiLegend]

great video. could u elaborate more on the chopping kick? how do u get the power out of it? do u still move ur hips in the same motion as the regular round kick?

[erik88nl]

did you fight in competitions powerhouse?

[PunKilla911]

His arms chin and shoulders are not in the correct position sry man plus i see his kicks not hitting with the inner part of the leg's bone which makes real bitchass pain after lets say 30 bashes through the bag.

[HwarangOfFaith]

this technique to the leg is pretty much asking for a counter. Why hit with the high part of your shin when you can connect with the lower part, giving more space to recover?

[aaarturooo7]

Hands down this is the best instructional video I have ever seen on low kick.

[PowerHouseKickboxing]

Thank you!

[erik88nl]

whats best? to spin on the top of your foot when making for example a low kick or round house kick or to keep your foot flat on the ground?

[PowerHouseKickboxing]

Either way, I do rotate foot but it is more flat on the ground, that gives me more support. Usually you rotate on the ball of the foot if you do high or medium kicks and you are committed and go through.

[UnIngerPierdut]

i practice kickboxing for about 2 years now...i do it 4 myself...not 4 participating in competitions.and in the beginning ive learned all 3 typs of lowkicks and fortunately,they are the same as u show us.i wish i could visit u`r gym and watch a training session.but i can`t because i`m from central Europe and u r from USA.thank you 4 posting this video and sorry 4 my english.Best of luck!

[corporacionmonstruo]

this man is a genius teaching!!!!!!!

[PowerHouseKickboxing]

Thank you!

[bonkling]

should you focus on getting your kicks hard and fast? or will the speed and power eventually come with technique

[PowerHouseKickboxing]

technique first, you need to build right muscle memory and body mechanics first. speed and power will come.

[bonkling]

awesome =]

thanks man your vids are great

[abriell1]

good lesons,he explain very well the tehniques.But these are just training lessons,in a real battle the most important things are the atitude,the seriosity and the determination.

A real prof never start a fight,he do everything to avoid it.Only if is necessary he will fight.

[allislostkyc]

Your videos are so helpful!

i wish i didn't live all the way in Washington or else i'd sign up. Just by watching your videos i feel like i'm becoming a better fighter with each vid.

[PowerHouseKickboxing]

Thank you! The DVD "RoundHouse Knowledge" is coming soon. It should be up for sale in 2 weeks. I will post a trailer when it's ready. Thank you again, K

[naydah]

our trainer teached me to kick on toes - not on foot. Its better because there is less resistance from flor - less surface of friction.

[disneyagents]

Hey i have a question

as your kick goes from low to high

does the supporting leg turn more?

like low kick didnt look like you turn the suppoting foot much but in other your high kick video ur supporting leg turned almost 90 degrees

[PowerHouseKickboxing]

You have to turn the supporting leg, this way you will involve more body weight and momentum into the kick. Also you will fallow through, without turning your foot you won't be able to follow through, so you will have less power. Best, K

[disneyagents]

thanks very much for answering!

[supasaiyn]

do u kick with the shins or foot

[PowerHouseKickboxing]

With a shin, but sometimes you kick with a foot as well, depending on the distance.

[Sudol171]

with this kick use the shin b/c with the foot there is a chance you could break the foot

[BadBlueBoy213]

u can also break the shin by the way

[PowerHouseKickboxing]

That's why you need to condition your shin so it won't break

[BadBlueBoy213]

@PowerHouseKickboxing yes, i know, and i also do that, but one could also state that one should condition the foot., right? xD

well, for low-kicks, i always use the shin, for the body too. but when it comes to highkicks, i sometimes use the foot. it just covers more distance and you can create a greater "snap" effect, don't you think?

[PowerHouseKickboxing]

High kicks, sure you kick most of the time with the foot. Also you can do the same for low kicks as well, it's all depends on the distance and the situation.

[BadBlueBoy213]

are you the guy in the video? are you maybe russian?

[PowerHouseKickboxing]

Yes I am Russian and it's me in the video

[7rixee]

The best videos on the subject, very useful ideas included, thank you Konstantin.

[PowerHouseKickboxing]

Thank you! I am glad it was helpful. Best, K

[EricMarius777]

I first saw this kick in Fedor's book, I prefer it to the traditional Muay Thai kick. If you do it right it is just as damaging. Great demonstration!

[rwin1]

good clear lesson. ty

[ODcripBanga19]

very informative

[9Rayvik9]

You are so thorough and detailed. I would be lucky to have a teacher like you. Great vid!!!

[kamran500]

i did that kick on this boy at school today, he was like yeah kamran lets fight, so we did and he asks me dyu know kickboxing? and i said yeah, then did a low kick, and he ended up on the floor and he didnt get up for a while. must have landed really well

[PowerHouseKickboxing]

good for you man

[2ossy]

lame, a real kickboxer doesnt fight outside the ring

[kamran500]

well i'm not the type to back down from a challenge

[2ossy]

ok.

[tudorelviola]

Thank you for the tips! Great vid.

[renoboy666]

At 2:03, Konstantin makes an important point about the kicking knee and its relationship to the center line.

[nobeliefin]

Excellent stuff man. You know very well the techniques and also how to explain them. You help a lot of people here. My respects to your work

[PowerHouseKickboxing]

Thank you!

[juanmpirata]

great video

[bajsmannen92]

What kind of bag is that, the one that you used in the beginning and in the end?

[PowerHouseKickboxing]

it's a muay thai bag, it's 6 feet long. You can google it and you'll get a lot of options to choose from.

[PowerHouseKickboxing]

Thank you!

[Pegamin]

great vid :) thanks

[svfers]

in tutti i calci circolari si effettua la rotazione del piede d'appoggio e in questo video non la vedo...

[pbigio]

La rotazione è là - il relativo soltanto realmente veloce e venire dall'anca piuttosto così del piede. Inoltre ha una scossa differente che è più come la scossa tailandese che descrivete.

[sicnotion]

i would have a better time paying attention if he didnt have a shitty celtics shirt on

[pbigio]

Great video - thanks for posting!!

[DjokicaKPZ]

hmm....

[ferrisiam]

In your defense, Ive seen plenty of fighters that kick just like the first part of your demonstration.There's plenty of ways to throw the kick. If the kick works well for the individual then its a good kick!

[PowerHouseKickboxing]

Good point. Different situation requires different application. Also everybody has different body type, MA practitioners have to adjust the basic technique to their body ability.

[rayen555]

np, its true, if u turned your foot much, your kicks would be massive!

[rayen555]

uhm, im sure that ain't a good kick, u don't turn your foot much wich make your hips stay straight instead of throwing your hips in.
