Also, should i bring up my knee striaght up to the targer then kick, or bring up m knee to the side, like if i was checking a kick, then kick, one more thing, Is it more powerful to straighten the leg out at the point of impact? Please help.|||Yes they do, any kind will help.
Either way works, depending on how you want to kick the target, by bringing the knee straight up then kick, you will also push the target, it%26#039;s also a bit faster. By bringing it to the side you%26#039;d have to twist your hip more for it to be effective, unless it%26#039;s more of a %26quot;whipping%26quot; kick, which is also effective, but won%26#039;t push your opponent as much as the other way.
When you kick either way, you never straighten the leg out all the way, doing so could potentially damage your knee.
good luck!|||no you do not want to extend your leg (it is a form of chambering) and it was tough for me not to do so.... but the best kick in MT are when your leg is a %26quot;wet noodle%26quot; along for the ride... and the power of you hip, takes the momentum to your leg.... when you are first learning this is very difficult, because it hurts a lot on your shin... and you want to %26quot;tense up%26quot; for the impact.... but that only takes momentum away... to properly throw a MT round kick with you shin... you just cant care at all about how it will feel.... full body commitment.... i may add that chambered kicks arent a bad thing, but that they are not good for a shin stirke.... chambered kicks are for precise strikes, and the MT round kick has a huge margin of error,,,, when you throw it.... throw it with bad intensions for whatever gets in the way... good luck|||Well you see your power comes from turning your hips. So you could pull your kick all the way around and it will have alot of power, but it will also be alot slower. One way for speed is to pull your knee up straight. So it varies on if you want speed or power. There is away that you can pull your knee up straight and then last minute turn you hips, but you need to make sure you get the hips all the way around.
Oh, leg excersises may improve your kicks some, but make sure you dont get big bulky legs because they will make you alot slower, and the slower you are the more likly your opponent will grab your leg.
The biggest benifet from working your legs out is simply being in better shape, and having better control. The best way to improve your kicks is to spend lots of time trying to perfect the technique.
