As you're finding out, for example, a round kick is made much more powerful if you turn your hip over as you throw it.

Using the hips turns a front kick into a push kick, and a defensive side kick into something that potentially stops your opponent, and may buy you that crucial half a second.

This was a big deal when I took TKD, and still is now that I take karate. I know it's ghey.

yea I was taught on the kicks if you hear the slap your not doing as much damage.. when I hit it right with that sweet part of the shin you just feel the bag or the person holding th pads move more you can feel the power transfer.. specially when you get that hip into it.. being a big strong guy myself.. and getting stronger... I have dropped 7% body fat in the last 3 and a half months but only losing about 7-10 pounds of over all weight. my kicks are getting harder my form too needs work.. my left more so then my right. but its getting there.

I didn't mention this in the first post, but the kick workout and attempting to train on the ankle/shin the next morning caused a small injury, so I did kickboxing this morning, but took the night off.

Yeah. I'm sure I've mentioned this other places, but I was out with Pat Miletich and he told me I looked like a 12 year old.

Actually, he and Mike Lynch (formerly of WAMMA, currently of Chokeout Poker) were hooking me up.

Great guys.

Pat's faithful to his wife, but he has to beat them off with a stick.
