@bwfirth read the friking info you lazy idiot

Great tutorials! My friend taught me the hook kick by starting with an inside crescent kick. When the kick is mid-air, he told me to twist my body to the side or even face the back so as to perform a hook kick. I find it helps me kick higher and more powerful. (Of course the problem is I can't do the same with a spinning hook kick obviously) Any opinions? It will help a lot. Again, awesome tutorials! Thanks.

When I do this kick, it ends up being almost like a crescent kick. I find it hard to chamber my knee and do it properly. Are there any tips for that?

@darkriskside Thank you kind sir. I'll keep practicing.

[darkriskside]

@JaLomangino is not about what you're doing wrong is most about keep practicing, this kick involves a lot of technique, so your muscles have to adapt to the movement, and also the tip toes will help to go higher but its a moment where your stance becomes a little unbalanced too, so you have to practice it to master it

i can get a cramp from that

[MrYoutooblol]

haha! Take this!

*FOOT SLAP*

Opponent: -.-'

[JaLomangino]

I dont know if your going to read this but i cant consistently get my kick above shoulder but i did notice that at the height of your kick you are on your tip toes and i am almost flat footed but i dont think that will get me enough height to get this kick high enough and i dont really feel strain in any tendons or muscles when i throw the kick so i dont think its my flexibility. What do you think im doing wrong?

[sucksatcod]

@andrebading  I cant get that high either. we need to stretch more.
