I'd also like to say that the reason why we get into the habit of chambering is because that's how we get taught as lower ranks to get the knee up to kick. As one progresses through their studies, they must realize how to make their movements more efficient.

Chambering is like the starter lines on drawn picture. You start learning to draw by drawing lines, axises and circles then adding details. At the highest level you're good enough to imagine them so your strokes become more precise and confident. The picture is born in a stroke.

One thing i learned from mr Scott Adkins (granted, he's Taekwondo, not Karate) and Steven Wonderboy Thompson, is that they get rid of the chambering process entirely when throwing their sidekicks. It's fast, non telegraph and strong as hell. It's always more powerful to push from the floor and straight forward into the target, chambering up means you just wasted all that power from pushing the floor
@sassuki
@sassuki Ай бұрын
Taekwondo is korean karate, so it's basically the same thing, dont' worry. But especially with the side kick, I am not sure it is more powerful if you don't chamber, because the power comes from the movement being on a straight line + the drive from the hip. Sure it will probably be faster if you don't chamber, but then it will look more like a Keagé, not 100% Kekomi, which will lessen the power dramatically as the stretching part will be only a dozen centimeters at the end. This is an ideal Kekomi trajectory: ¯¯| But with what you said, it will be more like ¯\ Chambering badly is a known technique for competition anyway, as it is about points, not maximum power, so the faster you are, the more chance you have to score.

The bottle demonstration is good for explaining knee blocks. If you time them right, the weight moves up to power the block. But if you time it to early, the weight will descend back to the foot by the time the strike lands and the block isn't so good.

This is very true. I train in Aichi, with JKA. I often assist the younger ones on their kicks, teaching them that yes, it's important to chamber as you learn BUT... as they get better, I expect a more fluid motion. As they continually improve, they must learn to fluidly push forward THROUGH their target. The chamber should be aimed at their target, no longer up. Chambering your kicks "sharply" ends up just touching your target. No real power. Hip movement is vitally important when chambering "forward" into a fluid kick. Often times the kicks end up brushing the target too similarly like "painting the fence". If you've seen Karate Kid, you know what I mean LOL.

Yes, that's a great point, but you feel like this because you see chambering from the point of view of the Karate, where each movement is strict and tries to be the hardest. In Taekwondo, we chamber most kicks because 1) we do it fluidly, not in a robotic way, so it actually adds to the dynamic 2) it's a way to hide until the end where we will kick (there are at least 4 different kicks from there)

It also depends of the type of impact you want/desire on the target. Even a swinging or slapping (Ax kick, crescent kick, rising kick) type of kick is enhanced by a proper/appropriate chamber "if you know what you are doing". Keep in mind, distance from the target; plane of the target (high, mid, low), speed needed (all kicks don't have to be fast and "showy" just effective) and what degree of deception might be warranted.

I use both versions of kicking. I call the first version the static version. It is used for beginners. The reason is, that the beginners have to learn to do kicks with high knees. The other version is the dynamic version of kicks. This is the standard version in my karate. Mae geri etc. is simply to teach this way. Yoko geri kekomi is the most difficult technik for to do it this way.

Great reference to attaining more power from individual kicks for sure, I teach after the 1st kick when your good enough to chamber the kick back so you can kick a second or 3 time without putting your foot down, using the first or second to Faint/baulk and execute the last more meaning fully, very difficult to do, but with practice you can achieve alot. A defender doesn't know which kick to look out for, it won't be as strong as an individual kick would be of course but still strong enough to knock someone back, break a rib, the knee joint, knock them out, those kicks require precision not necessarily the most power.

Yea I do agree with the first comment. When we are thought at basic level we are thought to chamber the knee. It’s easier to teach or instruct that way when you are instructing a class and that is where the habit comes from Aldo by chambering the knee you are more likely over time to damage the knee. The way that you explain it makes more sense and I would no ware on the knee. Great work keep it up looking forward to your channel next time, thank you for the advice.

With all due respect, the bottle lost me. So, just in case I'm not the only one, I will offer an explanation that I learned years ago from a former Sensei. Chambering limits the power produced by only extending from the knee after the momentum from raising the knee has been wasted. Extending from the knee while simultaneously raising it, compounds the power by using the momentum generated by the hip and the knee together. If you understand the physics behind the snap of a whip, you can apply the same physics to make a kick more powerful.

As a physical therapist and martial artist I don't think I can get on board with this model. Your musculature is not liquid in a vessel it's tissue that experiences stretch and tension. The faster I flex at my hip and knee the more tension I put into that structure that wants to return to a resting position. With good timing you extend the knee USING that tension you've put into chambering and get a stronger kick as a result. If you watch people jump you get the idea. I'm just some schmoe on KZfaq at an odd hour. I hope your channel grows as you obviously care about improving. Peace

Nice explanation, cant really follow the bottle and water idea though. (I have 35 yrs TKD behind me) - the physical explanation is that if you chamber early, you are no longer using your upper leg muscles and core muscles to move your leg at the moment of impact. Just your quad. with almost any impact, hand, elbow, knee, foot, at the moment of impact all the muscles (in particular the big ones!) should be in play at the last range of their motion.

Kyokushin and Shotokan here: Kyokushin uses a lot of hip movement in the last moments of the kick to push it further. That adds a ton of power to the kicks (especially the mae geri).

The only two reasons I know anyone chambers and holds is for understanding kick flow with drills and there are kata that require you to hold the chamber. When kicking for self defense or sparring you never stop at the top of a chamber. But if you go to the extreme of not chambering the kick will never have height without being a stretch kick. The foot follows the knee in the kicks you showed and when your knee was low so was your kick. If someone is not understanding the fluidity of chambering and kicking that’s a teaching point but to say do not chamber is a mistake that will only cause you more problems. How to fix your chamber or your chamber is wrong would be a better title as you did not stop chambering on your kicks you just did not hold the chamber.
@Tletna

Other than being a teaching device, the whole point of chambering prior to launching the kick is that then we can launch different kicks and the opponent doesn't know which one. I chamber in front, I can do a snap kick, thrust, round house high, medium, low. I chamber on my side, I can still do round house or do side kick. It is both a mind game and something giving me time to decide. Sure, it is harder to see if you're just snapping out a kick quickly without chambering but *if* they can see it then they know exactly which kick you're doing. Still though if you don't talk about the reason why chambering can be useful and you're giving nonsense analogies with the bottle (which just isn't actually how biomechanics works) then it makes your advice which is correct seem incorrect. I'm no expert or blackbelt.. just a keyboard warrior but I used to know a lot about kicking and what you're saying here if you don't add some nuance to it.. it's wrong without the nuance or at the very least misleading.

there's probably an argument to be made for not chambering, but this is not a good analogy toward that end. you're muscles do not act like a fluid inside a bottle. to generate force, they get shorter. for the front kick, it's going to be mostly the knee extensors and some hip flexors depending on how you execute. if not chambering allows you to add speed without a net loss in contractile force in the involved muscles, it will add power. this is beyond my expertise, but i imagine it varies between individuals and heavily depends on what you're more practiced with. i do have some understanding of the musculoskeletal system and it's not a fluid subject to inertia within a container. i'm fine with taking some liberties with lose analogies as a teaching tool, but this is so far removed from how the body actually works it bothered me enough to comment. the argument for chambering, strictly from a biomechanical standpoint, would be that putting any muscle on a stretch before contracting it will allow it to generate more force. [edit] ... this is probably unnecessary, but since i mentioned the hip flexors earlier ... if you were to chamber a front kick, the hip flexors would be put on slack, but you would now have both the knee extensors and the hip extensors on stretch to generate a lot of force for a push kick. if you wanted to get the most out of the hip flexors, they would be put on stretch into hip extension exactly the way football kickers do. i appreciate that there are variations of the front kick that are somewhere between these two extremes, and that a whipping motion may be a viable strategy over chambering, but my main issue was with the analogy itself. a whip would actually be a better analogy.

Mr. Nagano risks getting ex-communicated from the Shotokan fraternity by teaching these techniques. This is pure authentic Wado-Ryu as promoted by the founder Master Hironori Otsuka and his No.1 disciple Tatsuo Suzuki Hanshi. And of course it works wonders!

I wonder if old-school Shotokan was more about Power? I love the 'stiffness' of Shotokan Karate because it teaches Power control, so if you can learn both Stiff and Relaxed, you will be more in touch with your body.
@KarateDojowaKu
@KarateDojowaKu Ай бұрын
I think it's good to start from being stiff as a result of learning basic body control. However, learning to maintain control while staying relaxed is the next step in my opinion.

Depends on the Shape and Timing of the chamber. In Muay Thai, the chamber is more blunt ( and applied later. In Dutch Kickboxing which comes from Kyokushin, the kick looks more snappier but still Powerful enough.

@KarateDojowaKu As we all should and I'm very pleasantly surprised by your latest vids on kime and chambering👍. In my own limited experience training in JKA Shotokan karate, deviating away from kime and chambering was like driving on the wrong side of the road. I always felt chambering on the mae geri turns the kick into a "stub". I think the irony is that if we go back in time, those perhaps weren't as much a part of Shotokan as they became eventually. And the older I get, the more I'm convinced that breaking fluidity in motion is not only detrimental to power generation, it's also taxing on the joints, on breathing, and the nervous system.

Yes, but he's not doing a Sharp Chamber but more 🔴 instead of 🟥. Think of a Semi-Circle and a Triangle, both are similar looking and are complete shapes but serve different purposes. If we were to cut 2 holes for each shape and try to put one in both holes, it would not work. That doesn't mean it's useless because it's already served it's purpose.

Hello my Freind You header on the video is incorrect . what your heading should say is relaxation vs tension. You are explaining this technical principle, which is one of twenty five technical principles taught by Joe Lewis , in the late 70s and early 80s. This is not really about chambering your kicks. It could be applied to any technique. There are many great fighters who learn this principle through repetition and fighting, but very few who can also convey this principle. I liked your bottle explanation as a visual aid here in the days of the internet. Keep your mind open. There are many things that you will learn over the years with an open mind. Chuck Cohen

I completely understand your concept but I would have to disagree cast to the type of kick you are down putting is it fully being done correctly you are demonstrating as Kata version who doesn't give Justice. I do agree with what you're saying as far as what you are demonstrating. But I would disagree with the physics if the kick is done correctly that supposed to be. Just my thought but I'm nobody important to be saying so
