Bagwork The Side Kick has the highest force output on the bag

this kick doesn´t require more precision and timing than any head kick. Like seriously, how cna you miss a body with your whole foot bottom. As opposed to a high kick, axe kick, spinning back kick, or even just front kick to the face. Also is that you ?
It s extremely hard to land a good sidekick in sparring because you need to chamber it and turn sideways.

And most Side kicks are pushes which doesn't generate much power. You need to accelerate at
the right moment. Otherwise it's just a jab with the leg.

Yeah that's why noone throws it. It's too much of a tell. Front kicks start similar to roundhose. Side kicks are very obvious and there is "lag" before you conect them.

I would have to agree. They are hard to land.

But self defence is different
 
What did I do to you?
You're the worst type of martial arts enthusiast. You refuse to actually attend a gym where all of your questions and more would be answered, instead you choose to espouse absolutely retarded theories backed by nothing but what your uninformed gut tells you and then insist you're correct whenever people with more experience and more brain cells attempt to steer you towards something resembling reality. You didn't do anything to me personally, just waste some of the pixels on my screen.

I have trained in a gym for 4 years. and I have trained a total of 10 years.
 
Sanda people can land sidekicks no problem.. and people here says is very difficult and noone throws it 🙄
 
I would say the point I am at now in terms of eastern martial arts is beyond styles. but my influences was taekwondo.

I also train boxing.
So I take it you have BB's in various styles, have you had to use your training in real life situation.
 
BB means jack shit. But since you ask. I got to red belt.
I got to double black stripe in tkd but ya its the sparring and the intensity imo, I find one of the biggest things that can end even an experienced MA is a simple straight right on the chin which a lot of thugs and street guys do, a lot of people react very poorly to that and what really aggravates me a lot is that most gyms unless its a boxing place don't train slipping or countering punches.

Haha no, if you do a little sparring in boxing or kickboxing you will learn distance and their shots will be easy to spot

There is no way you can fight. Mc dojo tkd red belt. I can hop on a plane and test you (I live close to the Airport). We can record it for lulz on sherdog. I actually wanted to check out the UK. What country in the UK are you from ? I got a gaming budy in Wales and can stay at his house. Hotel is no problem too. I wouldn't mind beating the shit out of you. Respectfully. I am a shit starter. When I see a Dojo red belt like you. I'm sure you're a good kid. But this is sherdog, a MMA site. Not a mc Dojo site. I'm being a bully it's douchey I know. Red belt. How am I bullying him if he is above black belt. Dude got a red belt.
 
What about the flying side kick?
Jumping forward with your whole weight on the striking foot, weather front kick or side, can be really strong, but obviously it's not very accurate and it does take more energy out of the gass tank. Jump forward kicks are cool though.
