The return of the LEG MUSCLES clip!

*"LEG MOUSCLES"* never gets old

The lean-in deception (attack by drawing in JKD) is a great trick. Always great, common sense, potent stuff on this channel.

Good timing, rhythm and fast physical reflexes are obviously key to this move/technique

Recently watched a Forgotten Weapons video on WW1 trench warfare melee weapons. I couldn’t help but imagine the Hard2hurt version of that video and how much cooler it would be with someone familiar with close quarters/self defense weapons. I would love to see Mike’s flashlight expertise applied to more historical but less “traditional martial arts” self defense weapons.

I love the sound at 0:50

Next level: Don't even lean back, take the jab, at the same time throw your punch. Saves time and even closer distance!

LEG MOSSLES!!!!

Just always remember to pull before is too late 😏

You had me at “Leg Muscle”!

80 seconds in, Liking the video for the return of the king: LAIG MASCOLS!

When I was learning the pull back, I typically did take the step, instinctively. Or I used a shoulder roll with the pull back...after I learned the shoulder roll. And I'll practice both. There's another version I learned through capoeira, where you pivot into a more balanced stance, and then pivot back.

We like talking about our centers because it's the easiest and most broadly covering way of talking about leg work and balance.

The thumbnail looks like a Victorian era boxing manual. The actual clip not so much 🤣

When I lean back, I like to incorporate rolling of the lead shoulder too for extra protection, and to load my hips for the right hand. However, I don't like leaning back most of the time. It's just not a good position to counter from. I'd take a slip-uppercut over a pull-uppercut any day of the week

When I pull counter I step back with just my rear foot as I pull ,then as I counter I slip my head slightly off the center line while throwing my punch,(to avoid a head on collision with my opponents punch) then I sometimes roll under afterwards and step out. That way of pull countering I just explained works well for me when I don't have a reach advantage and keeps me from getting clipped especially as my head is coming forward as I punch. There is several ways to anything in boxing (I'm an amateur boxer for 13 years) that's what I love about the sweet science. You can also shoulder roll as you pull for extra protection, but I'd rather pull with my hands up ,then slip as I spring my upper body forward with the counter. I counter with straight left or straight right hand. But when I slip I slip very slightly, just enough for a punch down the center to skin the side of my head. It's a game of inches not miles. That's my experience and 2 cents, Thank you and good pull technique on this video

Leg muscle needs to be a shirt.

I’m one of those Karate guys with the center 🤣🤣🤣👍 And I learned a lot from this video too. Good stuff!

Jared doing that look right as the video ends feels memeworthy

Me. I use the center. Or it uses me. Not sure.

Always fun listening to Jared

Great timing! I will have sparring session today. I will surely put it to testing. I do this leaning (or lean-in deception) instinctively but I have never trained it as such.

I love that Jared used the old school "riding the jab" statement. Icy mike used this in street beefs several times!

Quick, thorough and to the point! Thanx & God bless y'all!🥊

Thanks for the great simple to understand concepts love it man thanks for the knowledge

1:09 Genius cut

thumbnail is hilarious.

big props on landing that part as the ahole boss in the new Adam Sandler movie hustle🤣🤣🤣

Great Guys

Favorite channel and also got an awesome flashlight because of a review as a matter of fact

Lol I love when two people on Worldstar look exactly like 2 deers fighting for a doe LMFAO

Goddamn was I not the only one who had to rewind 5 times to hear "your leg muscle"

I just noticed how much you mention Street Fighter in your videos, lol. Was cool seeing that arcade machine in the garage video. Ever get into Arcade Sticks? Spent a pretty penny tricking out a Hitbox Cross Up. Arcade stick but with a D-Pad for extra movement and input options. Can flash store 14 or so profiles for different games. And you can change lever/button priority, or add a camera button for games like Breath of the Wild or the like.

little mac down special moment

The thumbnail lmfao

THE LEG MOSEL!!!

That thumbnail 😂

One thing I'd add is, don't lean back a lot. If someone gets a read on you leaning back, they can anticipate and counter by dropping a fist right on your sternum, and then you're on the ground.

LEG MOSCLES IS BACK BABY

World star!

Philly Shell + Pull Counter.

The best pull counter is lerdsila and saenchi. They lean ridiculous far back to dodge kicks and counter quick.

Thanks

Great vid !!!! Need to work on the step back !

to move with speed and power in a given direction, one must push off in the opposite direction. Sensei Ron calls it "buttressing" (as in the architectural feature... sicko's...)

Naseem Hamed leaned back way more than Floyd Mayweather did. Floyd's pull counter was subtle, it was like a tiny half step backwards, mixing with rolling with the punches

And some would pick on me for working the "tiniest move" to the thirteenth power. If a lot wasn't in the details, boxing wouldn't take years to get good at.

Leg!

If you're going to mention McGregor and pull counters, I feel like you have to mention McGregor vs Alvarez. Arguably not a pull since McGregor barely moves his head, but Alvarez's hand actually flattened the tip of McGregor's nose, that's how close it was. Then of course, McGregor countered with a hard left over the top. Gorgeous clip.

I see the 'wrong' version of pullback alot in muay thai to evade head kicks, but I think that's more acceptable because if you miss a roundhouse to the head it takes you a moment to recover so it's kind of like a little reset in the fight alot of the time.

Video on learning and following combinations faster and better in class? I always have trouble remembering the combinations in class even though they were taught 2 minutes ago

Regarding southpaw and conventional stances I tend to be left handed in fine motor skills and right handed and right legged in raw power. I tend to favor the right hander’s stance when sparing… It feels right and I suck at sparing. So I’m probably not a left handed conventional fighter 😜

My pull counter is competent. Its one technique Im proud of.

LEG Muscle!!!

I miss WS fight comps sooo much 😭😭😭

Nice boxing shoes.

I’ve always been mesmerized by experienced coaches, both in Boxing and Muaythai, they always seemed to be able to connect from farther away than you expected. Both of my coaches did that leaning in trick, but they always told me not to. Is there a good reason to not lean in a little?

I'm a dirty southpaw; does this technique change in an open stance? Love when you and Jared collab; y'all got great chemistry

Balrog?!🤯 🤜💥🤛 Like if you've been to the Golden Nugget LMAO

leg muscles

Jared is known as "The Quiet Storm" in the boxing world. his reach appears to be longer because he moves his feet closer with every strike.

2:27 so what you’re telling me is I can punch with both hands.

Can I send you video of me sparring, and can you give me any advice?

Fucking KZfaq, gives me a ton of Hard to Hurt. Yet. Molton Friedman and Thomas Sowell vids I get next to nothing. Hell, if I accidentally tap a phone prompt and well did you know we can make 7-up popsicles?

0:20 this how Anderson Silva got KO'd by Chris Weidman

Drive me nuts seeing a pro pull back, but doing so in a way that brings their chin up, so I appreciate some examples of how to use the technique in a way that is defensively responsible. However, I don't mind seeing an opponent pull back with their chin up in the sky, I just say "thank you, good sir."

👍

the original pull counter, Ali vs Liston 2

There's a reason this is just for boxing. Don't count on this too much for Muay Thai (just an FYI for those people).. you'll get swept like no other

Make the videos longer please

I’m one of those Karate using the center guys. 🤣🤣👍

suggestion for video: can you please check out "Tactical Combat System" channel and give us your personal opinion about the method he is teaching. would love to hear your insights about his channel and his method of self defense. thank you!

Adesanya does this great.

im a total rookie but when i lean back i usally imidietly also do a kind of jump back ? I dunno, like a quick little jump using that lean to push myself back even more

Israel Adesanya pull the lean back and swing move quite a bit.

is there any way to pull off the pull counter on WAY taller opponents? in my muay thai classes the other dudes are like a whole head taller than me. im 5 8 aka 173 cm btw.

i don't care about the technique shown in the video, i just wanna know what icy mike is doing for leg day.

Floyd might drop his hands but he never drops his defensive mentally

Mike can you show us a rip and tear technique?

can you do a video on hand fighting? I'd like to add it to my drill set but I'm not a wrestler.

Icicle micicle…i saw something the other day about pulling opposite side of ya body to punch more efficiently. It feels like BS but might work if you unlearn everything…idk. Seems like something you could explain

Hey man I need my fix of Icy Mike action, I'm.begging.

I enjoy hard to hurt... Self-defense for idiots... By idiots 😄☮️♥️

if you ride a jab and counter with your left it's even faster.

Wait, so the secret to a good pull out is not being flat footed, having where to bounce back from and fall back as I see it comming?

Jared has one hell of a reach.

first?

Teach an orangutan to pull counter and it's all over man.

Third

There IS no right way according to my boxing coach. Doesn't want newbies to rely on it I guess. Also doesn't believe in throwing uppercuts to the face, which I think is a lot weirder

This channel lost it…

Best to study is holyfield, he doesnt lean back much almost stays upright but he steps back just to where the opponents glove is ever slightly touching his own face. Hes one of the best counterpunchers but def one of the best at pull counter

2:02 coulda said james toney
