Kory Wilcox : ridge hand and axe kick board breaks

[Kicking4JC]

I fractured my toes from that kick. I had always mounted my boards on cinder blocks, because i was afraid of either hurting someone holding the board, or suvh. However, when I came up for the up swing, I miscalcuated my distance and my two right little toes struck the cinder blocks. It took almost 2 months for those toes to heal. Probalby didn't help I was doing tkd four days a week, and working 5 nights a week having to wear composite work boots.

I certainly know the feeling of not breaking on the first strike! The axe kick is a difficult break ... just keep practicing that axe kick keeping your knee straight while striking a target shield. Persevere!

Actually, I was at brown belt at the time; I'm only just now recommended black, my black belt test will perhaps happen sometime this year. And I agree, my axe kick was very poor. It probably still is. That's why we train, isn't it? If I were perfect, then I wouldn't need training, let alone a belt rank test.
