  • If you wanna know how to really do it checkout this instead /watch?v=s5iTWCwlZyM

  • yeh not a round house kick.. And this kick boxing stance not muay thai

  • i thought Muay Thai fighters stand on there toes so they can throw multiple roundhouse kicks? As seen on Fight Quest :)

  • no presicion

  • @CHRISTIANSOLDIER101

    Just how Bas Rutten thaught us :)

  • trololololol

  • This guy is not a good kicker at all

  • @CHRISTIANSOLDIER101 yep i learned that from bas

  • those who can't do teach

    those who can't do or teach leave stupid comments on instructional videos

  • gay kick

  • shittiest muay thai kicks ive ever seen, take them off youtube. its a disgrace

  • @zinowor Make your own videos then. Otherwise shut the fuck up you arm chair quarterback.

  • @shootthis123 The guy kicks like a piece of shit, his three kicks at the end tell me everything. His angle is horrible, his rotation is horrible, his balance is horrible, momentum is horrible, everything is horrible. I'm not saying this to annoy anyone, I'm saying this because I want to prevent anyone from copying this garbage technique.

    If you really want to know how to do a good roundhouse kick, and even learn why it's good that way. Type this in the searchbox: Bas Rutten Kicking Techniques

  • @zinowor Like I said. Post your own video. And Bas Rutten is a chump and a bitch.

  • @shootthis123 u mad bro?

  • @zinowor Y U NO B MOAR ORIGINAL TROLL?

  • @shootthis123 you're the one trolling if you think Bas Rutten is a chump. You just said that for the sake of disregarding my argument.

    But if you think this video shows better kicks than those of Bas Rutten, then by all means keep practicing like shown in this video.

  • @zinowor Until you *show* me a better kick, you're just an armchair quarterback who thinks he knows something. Don't say it. Show it.

  • @shootthis123 You and this video deserve each other. American to American, how in the world could any of you ever be wrong???

  • @zinowor So put a video and show the right way. End of discussion.

  • @shootthis123 also, the same guy who uploaded this video posted another one called 'checking leg kicks in kickboxing'. I almost can't wait to see what you think about that video.

  • @zinowor Regardless of what I think, I wouldn't presume to know more than someone that works and owns a training facility and has 4 people that have gone on to Belator, and 3 people who have gone on to UFC. I'd post a video to offer proof. Got a video yet?

  • @shootthis123 you dont need outstanding technique to be a professional fighter, what makes you think you do?

  • @zinowor It seems to be the whole shtick of your bashing this guy. Perfect technique.

  • @shootthis123 I'm not criticizing these guys for their fighting skills, I'm criticizing their incorrect and incomplete way of demonstrating proper roundhouse kicks.

    Listen, I love martial arts and I just get annoyed when I see videos like these, where they try to give advice on how to do correct techniques. But then they dont actually know what the correct technique is, or atleast they think they do.

    I just want people to know that this video does not show proper roundhouse kicks. Thats all.

  • he keeps his hands from moving to protect his face u nuggets. also i dont think the kick was that bad...

  • @CHRISTIANSOLDIER10 Actually, stepping in delivers more power but the way you said also works, it depends on the distance of the opponent.

  • Everyone comments on peoples videos saying what they're doing is wrong, and then they tell them how to do it right. Its so annoying, there's DIFFERENT techniques. Youres is not the perfectly correct one so shut the fuck up

  • hand up while throwing the kick. full pivot so ur heel is facing ur target for pure power.

    when shin contacts with target dont bring ur leg back straight away bring all ur force so he moves

  • Ne croyez pas tout ce qu'internet vous montre ...

  • yr doing the kick all rong ya need to trn yr hips all the way over not enog hand and arm move ment ether ``

  • He kicks like a pussy!!!!!

  • lame.

  • lol, those kicks were laughably bad

  • Seriously, where the fuck do expert village find these gyms. That was one of the worst roundhouse kicks i've ever seen.

  • Or you could learn it from Karate!

  • Is there any expert AT ALL in Expert village??? Shit!

  • Wow... Muay Thai, what fucking Muay Thai? I've only been doing mma a few months now and traditional styles and kickboxing for about 15 years. That is no muay thai round kick. That's an embarrassment he didn't turn his fucking hips over at all, no hand motion, the shoulders aren't rolling down... nothing. It's disgusting.  I can kick better than this after a fucking 1/5th of vodka expert my fucking ass

  • You know im not one to get on here and critique videos, but being a serious practitioner of Muay Thai im ashamed of this vid LOL!!!! That technique was awful, I guess you can get by with that in MMA though.

  • what button should i press so that videos from some channels (incl. this one) will never be shown to me? anyone knows?

  • this guy is shit !

  • it needs his kicking arm to swing, while keeping his left arm up or across his face and the hip to be thrown. Sorry for the critique, but for the new people learning, this will generate more power and defense while kicking.

  • he should swing his hand as a counter weight if he is kicking using his right leg for more balance and his left feet should rotate 90 degrees towards the left for more power.

  • amazing how many people offer tips on these vids but none of them have videos of their own,

  • im dont think i know everything about muay thai but, those kicks weren't very good.. my trainers tells us to kick 'through' your oponent, to generate more power, but this guy stopped once he touched pad.

  • those muay thai shorts are HUGE!!!!

  • Is it me or every expertvillage's videos REALLY sucks?? Anyone that praticed Muay thai for more than a year can realize that they are making terrible mistakes...

  • Those kicks were shit.

  • @SuperiorNizzle Definitely

  • he never used his hip to turn into the kicks atal except when he did it in slow motion...woeful

  • Roundhouse kick or side kick  ???

  • wow those are bad kicks....

  • KEYBOAR DWARRIORS, MAKING BAD COMENTS ON YOUR VIDEOS: First, thank you for taking time, without charge, to help out people wishing to learn, and even those of us, who've the experience from competing/etc., yet need to periodically review n renew. I notice, after investigating pages of most loud mouths and keyboard warriors, they are usually people who have the typical, shallow, gangster-oriented stuff on their pages, and cannot judge you. Keep it up, man.

  • Wow, very bad kicking....

  • Would you stupid Martial Arts wannabes SHUT UP! Stop saying that what the guy in the vid is doing is wrong!!!!! Just SHUT UP! I'm watching these videos and I'm getting all pissed with all the comments of you assholes who don't do shit saying is wrong. Make your own damn video if you think you're so great. As far as I know, they have the school, they have the fighters, you don't so... who am I gonna believe? SHUT UP!

  • would u recommend changing from boxing to muay thai or kickboxing? 

  • @TheCGraham11 I mainly train in boxing but i did kickboxing for a year nd ive been training a bit in mma because the striking in this particular 1 is muay thai, I'd strongly recommend stick with boxing as its the best by far for ur hands but i'd say try muay thai for kicking, muay thai kicks are used to damage opponents where kicks in kickboxing seem more for putting combinations together. Thats just my opinion anyway. Theres nothing wrong with training in multiple disciplines

  • @TheCGraham11 i would go to muay thai because its all aspects of striking

  • Hard round kick... lol

  • his face is like wide open..where your arms at..smh

  • I love how he drops his left arm from his chin completely opening it for an easy knockout,is not 'set' back on his feet before throwing kicks therefore being off balance as he launches his next kick,has bad rotation in his hips with terrible stance to top it off.I'm a beginner and I can tell this is complete shite.

  • Comment removed

  • this is bullshit...its not correct

  • This is a Thai Roundhose kick, I call it football kick. Basically everybody can do this without any practice, it is absolutely non technical. Kickboxing Roundhose kick however more demanding like alirizwan91 described before. Also you need hip function and rotation to get it powerful. There is no hip function on this video at all!

  • OMGEE~~~EXPERT village???u cal dis a roundhouse kick??....???~

  • apOWNet

  • K-1 Standards.....this is crap. UFC Standards....this is beautiful....

  • he's not rotating the hips, one of the most important things...he's doing it when he shows in slow motion, but not when he's actually kicking

  • Bas Rutten explains this more easily. Or was alirizwan91 said.

  • he's powerful but slow

  • haha look that fat guy with the armpads, in the other video with the leg excercises, he's getting owned on the background.

  • he's like, "in order to throw a roundhouse kick, you roundhouse kick"

  • lol the chin hahaha /.. shin -.-

  • blablabla

    why cant you people watch a vid without acting like wannabe experts

  • @internetTOUGHGUY1000 maybe because it has to do with the fact that we're watching "EXPERTvillage" and the vids are actually not so expert.

  • @internetTOUGHGUY1000 cause most people who are higher then a green belt in any MA knows this guy is shit

  • Jesus these comments are long!

  • I am anything but angry, you see things the way you do and I may not change that. All I can say is, you should have somebody show you by kicking you lightly with their foot and than there shin and you see by the feel which one is more damaging. Look, i started out in karate and attained a third degree balck belt in Kenpo karate and starting out with foot kicks but found in full contact shins are more effective.

  • @marccost1 that's what you should of said its quick to the point and effective to tell me like that's all you need to do when you get in an argument with someone just say 1 we have two different styles and 2 your right ill take that into consideration

  • I will explain why the shin is harder than the foot. The foot gives in with kick, where the shin does not. The shin is a much harder surface than the foot and if you ever spar a good muay thai fighter you would find out the hard way how devasating the shin can be. Take a look at my fight on here where i knock out Ken Clark with shin kick to the head. (Marc Costello vs Ken Clark (kickboxing) )

  • @marccost1 agian didn't convince me you guys just sound like your angry

  • im sorry but airborn619 does have a point

  • this kick sucks dude and the shins don't make the kick stronger

  • haha ive dropped two guys with a round house kick to the body it only sucks because you cant do it right

  • @S1L4sLucas shins don't make the kick stronger

  • but they do make it less forgiving

  • @S1L4sLucas no they make it just retarted+

  • try blocking a kick from a guy whos shins might as well be iron

  • @S1L4sLucas i don't need to ill just break somehing on him we aren't talking about cage fighting because thats where the shin kick works go out on the street and shin kick somebody who knows how to fight then come back and talk to me

  • yeah and im sure you fight so well......

  • @S1L4sLucas oh its not a fight something is going to break and it ain't going to be me i don't fight i protect myself unlike combative styles

  • @rippabomb so what is it that you train in? just out of couriosity? and what are you telling these guys to kick with?

  • @AshleyLoft2010 Just out of couriosity how do you know me any way I was trying to be nice but you know my real name and everything its really starting to piss me off i can care less if you think i have no balls or anything like that all your doing is talkin behind a computer why are you even like this did I have sex with you or something because i know i didn't do anything to you for you to act like that

  • @abomb10 NO!!!!! i would never have sex with a nasty peseant like you!!!! and anyways i said nothing mean in that post. i was just curious.

  • @rippabomb

    You fail. Try it on someone who knows how to fight? If they know how to fight, odds are that THEY will be using the roundhouse kick too.

  • @RandomInternetTroll not really stay off a subjects that i put out on here because you have no clue what we are talkin about and no not all people who know how to fight don't always use the roundhouse most of them don't even need to lift their feet.

  • @rippabomb it doesn't make it stronger but focusing your energy on a smaller area of impact rather than the force spreading out on your foot will make the kick hurt more and it protects the brittle bones of the feet

  • @PKtraceur93 but it doesn't make sense i seen people break boards and bricks with the foot explain how its stronger if you convince me you win

  • @rippabomb yes it does kick stronger

  • @naydah not really

  • it does make the kick stronger man the shin is one of the strongest bones in the body

  • @airborn619 no it is not it is your spine then your skull not your shin

  • what?! um no the strongest bone is the femur then the tibia (shin) i'd brush up on the human anatomy if i were you

  • @rippabomb you're spine is nowhere near the strongest bone in your body you're pretty stupid dude your femur the thigh bone for you cuz obviously your an idiot is the strongest bone

  • @PKtraceur93 ok go to a metal knife and kick that with your shins and come back and tell me thats a good kick

  • @rippabomb you have no point lol

  • @PKtraceur93 and nether does kicking with your shin

  • @rippabomb so u prefer to take a kick from muscled part of leg or from shinbone ?

  • @naydah the shinbone I've been hit by that before

  • @naydah

    Nahh... getting hit with a muscled part of the leg hurts, but it feels like a smack... when you get hit with a shin, it kills...

  • @HappyLlama13 i know that man - rippabomb knows better, not me

  • @rippabomb you can break lots of things with the foot but you can't break a baseball bat with your foot and muay thai strikers do that in almost every demonstration we can break bricks wood baseball bats and banana trees all day long a kick with the foot can't break a bat it can also lead to ankle damage due to the foot being pushed backwards all in all kick with shin=bruise kick with foot=ankle damage and possible breaking of the small bones in your foot

  • @PKtraceur93 didn't convince me you just sound angry

  • @rippabomb well im anything but angry i trained western kickboxing for two years and i'll admit kicks with the feet are powerful but when you're hit with the shin it gives a whole new meaning to pain it feels like your quad is being cut in half but i'm wasting my breath on someone who will debate but not see the other's point....ever i really believe you're doing this for attention but until you train muay thai and experience it first hand you'll always be ignorant to the facts of kickboxing

  • @PKtraceur93 that was a good explaination i respect you for that see just stay that way you know what your doing and how to do it thats all it is so do what you do best and hit me up some time ight

  • to do it properly and more powerfully, rotate the left leg so that the toes are pointing 180 degrees from the opponent. start the kick by rotating the left leg 90 degrees and then swing the right leg. instead of what the guy does in the vid.

  • @alirizwan91 hey for a roundhouse kick, do you straighten your legs and kick or follow thi guy, cause i was taught to kick with my legs straight.

  • @Mr155656 never overextend your legs or hand in any punch/kick it will damage your joints. for the roundhouse, it depends on the distance of your target from you. if its farther, then extend your leg , if its near, then bend your leg at the knee. but if you bend, make sure ur not using your knee at all to power the kick (like TKD). and when you connect (with a bent knee roundhouse) make sure that ur lower leg (from knee to foot) is parallel to your body, as in lead with your knee.

  • @alirizwan91 thanks, so if you bend your leg you just swing it striaght like a pendulum?

  • @alirizwan91 That's the wrong way to do it.

  • @Svittidiu enlighten me!

  • @alirizwan91 You don't rotate the left foot until the kick has been launched.

  • @Svittidiu try both ways and use what works for you, and do what ur Kru recommends.

  • @alirizwan91 actually start the left leg by stepping at a 45 degree angle and then turning into the 180 degree :)

  • @alirizwan91 good luck turning the leg far enough while maintaining speed. you'd need very flexible hips and legs to do that so i cant really see how it would work.

  • @Wrath666Child yes speed is an issue if you are rotating on your leg to that extent, but it gives more power. The way i described is the "text book" way i learnt. the fighting version is definitly faster with less rotation.

  • this guy has very beautiful kicks

    smooth

  • i learned something new today watching this.

  • Thanks mate, how did this vid show...how to roundhousekick??? Pretty crap really!

  • @Zaarah2377 It's expert village, you cannot expect good things from it^^.

    His kick is more like Village people.

  • good for you that u know what to do

    cobiachi5thkupp...

    in Muay Thai you kick with the shin...in Taekwondo and karate you kick with the foot but not in muay thai...the shin is much harder than the foot, so stop telling shit thx!

  • @sKyyr3 in karate they also kick with shin well atleast in kyokushin i think they have two variations of round house kicks also

  • Comment removed

  • I hit my brother with a roundhouse kick. woops

  • Foot kicks are tae kwan do kicks.

    Shin kicks are Muay Thai kicks

    The first is more controlled, the second emphasizes on power. Muay Thai more effective against boxers, Kwan Do against everything else.

  • @cobiachi5thkupp that's a whole different kick in pradal serey they kick with the foot to the head and the shin to the body i'd rather hit with my shin and in step the my entire foot

  • if you kick someone with your foot, it's 20times more likely to break(unless you're wearing shoes). Never kick with ya foot unless you're doing karate or something of the same nature.

  • @cobiachi5thkupp i once mishit very hard lowkick. instead of shin i hit with the foot and i broke my ankle... stop telling crap. kicking with foot is dangerous and supossedly would have no power

  • did you hit with the foot ? or between your shin and your foot

    In San Da it is common to kick with the anterior part of the ankle joint

  • Kick the arms? LOL

  • @rolfeder

    it is very, very efficient if you want to wear down your opponent, especially in an arranged street fight with some fool who wants to fight you with his friends watching. A few kicks to the arms and shoulders will make him look like Quasimodo, he'll have no guard whatsoever and his punches will not even be likely to generate the power required to KO a little kid

  • I studied tang soo do for almost three years, and they have two round house kicks. One is much like the one in Muay Thai, the other is a revers spinning kick, also called revers spinning round house.

  • i tooked the same style for the same time as well and it sucked muay thai is what you need to learn. you already know an art so you should catch on fast

  • Why are all of expertvillage's videos always shitty and misleading? I hate you guys.

  • heres one point on this demonstration that he needs to work on first his pivot was not good second his foot was flat on the gound you should get high on the ball of your foot for more power and contral

  • i was gonna write that

  • are you saying that he can't drive?

  • look at buakaw's kick.

  • thats not a roundhousekick,

  • i am a tae kwon do fighter and in tae kwon do a round house is a diff type of kick but u gotta relise in diff martial arts and somtimes in same ones the english names may be different, but in muay thai this is a roundhouse, in tae kwon do weer i studied a roundhosue is a type of back spinning side kick.

  • dam arizona sucks balls at muay thai

  • stink roundhouse kick

  • In Taekwondo it's called a Bitchagi actually, wich is in korean, and a round house as you call it, is actually called Dolyochagi. :)

  • aghahaha, so i can knock the bitchagi out of someone?

  • yeah and you know what Shiba Seki means? it means fuck you, and your disgraceful family. Its korean aswell.

  • Pretty awesome.

  • The kicking is demonstrated well and better than the kick boxing hybrids that are often shown as thai kicks. Its the pad holder that may cause problems for instruction you should always bump a kick to leg and never never turn your knee from it. I add this comment as instruction should be kicker and pad holder.

  • no it was to weak and off balance and his hips are all crooked

  • in taekwondo thats a 45 kick and a high is what we call a round house

  • not in muay thai

    you can't do any damage with your foot

  • Ok, sorry for when I check that kick and smash your foot.

  • it really depends on what part of the foot :) rounds in TKD are usually lighter in an effort to keep from injuring your opponent too badly, same reason why an axe or spinning hook kick is done with the bottom of the foot rather than a pointed heel (also for more range). In muay thai, kick boxing and other mixed martial arts, the objective is more or less to be the last one standing so you would go for the most damage possible, the shin

  • you kick your shin right above his knee in the back side

  • using your shin? yeah if you want to break it..

  • muay thai fighters use calcium build up .. trust me it will take something crazy to break your shin

  • lol your not gonna break it you idiot

  • the shin actualy is the best part to kick with, and if u kick allot with the shins they toughen up through calcium build up like the kevined say's.

    this makes it near imposible to break it without a weapon

  • i have a question cant u also kick with the top of ur foot and the part were the foot connectes to ur leg?

  • In that case, avoid to kick in elbows, you'll regret it.

  • so u can do it but becarful of elbows?

  • Yes.

    As you know your ankle is an articulation, it might be damaged by an elbow if your opponent block you with.

    Bu if you strike in something "soft", like ribs, it wil be OK.

    Same thing for the knees, you can get serious damages if you verticaly hit an elbow.

    In the worst case, you can seriously damage your ankle with a low kick if you hit your punch bag or something hard with your toes.

    It wil transfert the force directly to the ankle, wich is not good at all.

    Sorry for crap english.

  • na ur english is good lol

    thanks for the info

  • you can kick with the top of your foot, but dont aim to... aim for about 30 percent up the chin, this is like the end of a bat, if the opponent backs up, you will still connect with the foot. If you aim with the foot, not only does your power decrease, but if they bak up you miss, and ive kicked with my foot many times and have broken my toes from landing on their elbows or forearms.

  • ok thanx

  • shin is not a bone its a femer
