Kicks are one of the best weapons you can develop. Not only are kicks cardio intensive, giving an instant sweat during a work out, but they are one of the best weapons you can have. After all, most people don’t know how to use their legs, and if you do, instant advantage.
Of course, kicks take a little extra hard work if they are going to develop into something you can be proud of. But if you take your time, train properly and regularly, and do learn the types of kicks in a certain pattern…you can have power busting kicks of the most magnificent order. That said, let’s go over the proper order of how to develop these kicks.

A Martial Arts class is a place where you learn to be healthy and strong and fit. It is filled with dedicated, hard working, serious and intent people. The five following items are things that you don’t want to hear in any good and serious martial arts class.
Hearing any of these five things interrupts the class, slows it down and breaks the pacing. Hearing any of these five things reveals an innate weakness that should not be manifested, but rather squashed quickly and fast. Hearing any of these things destroys the rite of passage that any good and serious martial arts class is.

When learning the martial arts, especially if you want to be effective, you need to learn the gains and limitations of the two kinds of punches. Knowing these punches will proscribe and dictate your combat strategy. Knowing these punches will effect your training and enlighten you as as a Martial Artist.
A thrusting punch is the first kind of punch. A thrusting punch is like a train running into something and going through. Simply, there is no back off, and the punch goes through.

You have to make the decision to win a fight if you are going to be victorious in that fight. If you don’t make that decision there is simply no way you are going to win. Thus, you have to practice making the decision, and then implementing a plan so that the decision becomes reality.
There are five decisions you must make to back up the decision to win a fight. This combat strategy is found in every fight. This is the strategy you must understand and master if you are going to be able to deliver the original decision.

It was Gichin Funakoshi who asked the question: the way, straight and true, who will pass it on? Actually, anybody can have The Way, and it is easily passed on. The key, of course, lies in good, old, hard core physics.
When karate was exported from Japan, it was taught in the old way, memorizing random techniques, and eventually bringing this practice to intuition. Though it works, this is an amazingly inadequate way to teach. The best way to impart the martial arts is through teaching the student a thorough understanding of physics.
