I've been practicing 100 round house kicks with each legs (either shadowboxing or on the bag, 5 sets of 20) for a month to see if it would get me anywhere. And man, it did ! I never felt my legs that nimble. I still have some way to go, I still can't high kick very comfortably, but this is working.

Hey gabe, I was wondering what your thoughts are about the pull counter in muay thai and kickboxing, I dont see it off of punches alot in high levels in kickboxing/muay thai but still wanted to try it out and implement it in sparring, any thoughts would be awesome!
@user-wq4nf4dk3s 4 ай бұрын
I think we see pull counters more often off of kicks than punches, like with fighters from the Yokkao gym, probably because of distancing. In pure boxing, pulling back just out of reach is safer because there's no follow up kick to threaten you with
@laughydawg9594 4 ай бұрын
not gabe but, 100% viable and effective. The issue with muay thai and kickboxing is that people's guard tend to be stickier, but if you time it so that your counter lands immediately after the extension of your opponent's punch and before they switch back to defense you'll find a lot of success

Gabriel! Have to share this story. I went to sleep right after watching this video and I ended up having a dream that you and I were hanging out chatting business stuff. You ended up inside the house for whatever reason and I was outside arguing with a friend that was supposed to be watching my kids, who were getting into trouble. All of sudden here comes Gabriel busting out of the house, sprinting right at my buddy and you full head butted his nose! Lol😂 His face was basically exploded as I stood there in disbelief. You were rubbing your forehead. 😂😂😂

Good vid. Gabriel I'm relatively new to Muay Thai, but i dont have the opportunity to train at a gym bcos most are too far away to train. Thankfully i took Muay Thai for a few mos so i sorta got enough technique to spar already. Not that is what's important. Anyway, i was self training and discovered something very cool! And that is to practice a Muay Thai round kick in the air, or shadow boxing! Here's why i think it's a good way to practice. It teaches you to use your hip motion, and pivoting. Obviously it's good to kick a bag n spar. But what do you think of Shadow n kicks to improve technique? Also, i found that if i don't shadow my kicks then they just don't feel right?

Thanks for these Gabe, couple of questions - of you happen to see my comment I would be grateful for your reply :) 1) how much of a bad thing is leaning back while kicking ? It seems to be inevitable for me when I want to go high 2) I recently trained outside of my school as I was on a trip abroad. The coach there told me that I am kicking wrong (yes, it's a nasty surprise to hear that after some time training 😂) because my support foot is pivoting - according to him I shouldn't pivot, only step outside and from there just use my foot to push and give power to the kick - like doing a calf raise so to speak. Is there any validity in the advice of not pivoting? I have certainly seen very good fighters in my time that pivot a lot, some of them almost to 180 degrees. Thanks!

Should the lead leg be straight when hitting the target? It can be bent in Muay Thai sometimes but is it different in kickboxing?
@michaelawosusi9284 4 ай бұрын
Great video Gabriel, your content is amazing however I haven’t seen anything about cardio and training when your heavy? Or even the differences of training weights. can you cover this in a video? My coach says run 5k a day. I’m 6,2 110kg is this smart there must be differences between me and a feather weight fighter

@strahinja95 4 ай бұрын
Hey Gabriel, Could you make a video talking about combinations? As a beginner I don't know what to do with them, when to throw them, what to think about them. In training they just come and go. Seems like when hitting a bag it works because the target is stationary, and also when practising with guys. But during sparing the target is moving, more experienced guys counter on the first strike and I doubt to do anything because they can counter.
@ChucksSEADnDEAD 4 ай бұрын
If they counter the first strike, then use a feint so they'll try to counter it, opening themselves. Or use the strike you want to use but mind the incoming counter so you can block. For example one textbook counter for a jab is to middle kick the exposed ribs on the side the jab was thrown from. So if you put the jab on their face while raising the leg to check, your jab is weak but you've blocked the strike while also blocking the vision for your next strike.

One step inside and it's free range down the pipe to the face, if the kicker swings his arm down thai style. The extra power is not worth the risk. Also, if you learn to kick with your guard up the whole time, throwing one of the most lethal combos there is - one, two and simultaneously back leg roundhouse to the head - will be so much easier to learn.
@ChucksSEADnDEAD 4 ай бұрын
Doesn't work when the kicker swings his head out of the firing line, learns to block with his other glove, or just picks the moment to throw the kick when you're not in position to just "one step". Any strike has a counter, any counter can be countered, and there's no perfect block/parry. The kicker also has the possibility to start feinting kicks and punch you when you step in, or just throw a question mark kick to catch your chin when try to punch.
@WadeSmith-oe5xd 4 ай бұрын
4:15 I agree with you in principle, but kickboxing doesn't allow jamming and grappling your opponent, and chop blocks in 16 oz gloves are less effective. In no rules fighting in no gloves or 4 ox gloves the mechanics of defending a roundhouse can be a bit different, because I and the 2nd dans in the dojo used to use a lot of chop blocks against roundhouses. Basically, instead of evading away, we'd step int othe knee and counter-strike the inside of the thigh of the other fighter in 4oz glove and it stings to do that. Also, like 185+ fighters have a hard time getting the roundhouse to head level unless they are literally a top 5 contender at kickboxing. Even as fit as I used to be before I got sick, I wasn't confident in my roundhouse enough to go for a head shot against you know...and 2nd Dan+ level fighter. I'd have probably gotten taken down and ground and pounded. I did work it to the kidneys and the left armpit though.

The only reason the roundhouse is the most effective leg attack for a KO is cause more effective ones are banned for being too effective.
