kickboxing`
Have you ever wanted to do some kind of sport in which you can actually fight in almost any kind of way (by saying almost I mean except grappling moves… grabs). I have and after thinking about this what I had come up with was… kickboxing.Kickboxing is a great sport in which it greatly involves your speed that you have in your upper body and in your lower body. This would be because you need your upper body to actually be able to lunge at your opponent when your going to punch them at the beginning of a fight, or just when your about to knock them out. You would also need your upper body (in this case arms) for you to do fast punches that will get your opponent numb so that you could easily finish him with a strong punch. When you are kickboxing you greatly need to build up your lower body because this way you will be able to resist the kicks given to you on your shins, do combos with one same leg, and also because this way you could jump high enough to kick someones ribs or even their head.Normaly in the beginning of kickboxing if you just cant take hits to the body/legs/head or anywhere don’t enter the sport because you will get hit many times and you cant avoid it.Kickboxing in the beginning could be a very tough sport because of its training and because always your competitors are not the equal size to you. One of the toughest training practices that apply to kickboxing would be when you have to kick someone else’s shin with your own, this way you could gain more strength, no I shouldn’t say strength, this way you will be able to resist other peoples kicks once they land them on your shins. In kickboxing once you get a decent speed with your kicks what would be next is combining them. For example of you kick someone’s shin you could combine it with a kick to the stomach and then their head, this would be a triple. While combining moves in the beginning it will be hard for you and I strongly disagree if you are going to be fight without even being able to hold ground while your left/right leg is doing a triple or a double. For you to be able to do any of the triples/doubles you should practicea. alotb. while practicing hold your ground and never move while your foot is on midairOne hint that I could say about doing triples/doubles is that you should always do a spin right after the kick, so you could easily lock your leg into place for the next kick (with your leg, not your whole body).Another would be that you should never exagerate your kicks, for example. If you can’t kick someone high enough to get to their neck/head don’t even try it or think about it because, if you don’t stretch a muscle what you will do is that you will do a very slow kick in which anyone could dodge and counter you for being so slow.Always when you are kicking if you can’t do any combos what you should do is kick really hard or fast enough so that your kick can’t geta. countered against (by saying countered against I mean that someone could apply another combo on your kick)b. easily dodgedc. grabbed by the other personIf your kick can’t end up in any of these three ways it means that you are strong enough or fast enough. But if your kick does end up in any of these three and you just can’t change that fact then it means that you suck at this sport and that you should just QUIT, you WEREN’T made for this BEAT IT. When you can find out that you will never be good at this sport is when you just keep losing against AnYoNe even kids that are smaller than you. When you see that happening to you, find yourself something else to do so that you could avoid all the pain that you will get for keeping on.
