Ask your Muay Thai coach a question about the essentials of leg sweeps

I'm not a coach, let's try to talk about it. Diagonal downward is a more common standard, and in some cases it will be diagonally upward. You see diagonally upwards in **, probably because Muay Thai coaches tend to cater to the target shooter as much as possible when holding the target, so that the target hitter is more comfortable (this is obviously different from Sanda Taekwondo), so the target is diagonally downward, and the person who kicks the target is naturally kicked diagonally upward.

When you practice air strikes and sandbags, you still practice in a diagonal downward way.

Muay Thai kicks mostly require the use of center of gravity movement to increase power, rather than the whip leg that only relies on the waist to support the leg to exert power.

If you feel that it is difficult to practice diagonally downward, you can first learn how to play sanda whip legs, and at the same time practice side leg presses, crotch flips, and other crotch flexibility in the pursuit of diagonal downward and center of gravity movement.

Regarding the shift of the center of gravity, you can take a look at this instructional film, many of the shots in it are shot from top to bottom, and it can be seen from this angle that the center of gravity of the demonstrator's body has shifted to the left.

Muay Thai, or Thai boxing, is a legendary martial arts art known for its strength and agility.

Known as the strongest fighting skill.

Kicks: Take the right roll kick as an example. The method is to lift the right foot, twist the body to the left, use the forefoot of the left support leg as the axis, rotate the heel inward to cooperate with the left twist of the body, and hit the right leg in an arc to the target, reaching the surface of the foot and tibia.

Particular emphasis is placed on the left twist of the body and the internal rotation of the supporting heel to harmonize the body. When the leg is out, the fighter can also choose the leg method of chain kick attack, and can randomly choose to use a single leg or two legs to sweep out; You can choose up and down or left and right, which is more effective than taekwondo.

Empty legs. This is something that many people don't use, just put one leg on the computer room as high as your waist, and then practice the action to exert force, which helps to better understand the force. And not tired.

I said to be simple, the Thai leg sweep is that the legs do not need to bounce back after kicking, and the kick mainly relies on the strength of the thighs and waist, and doing more squats and frog jumps can help improve strength. There is also the fact that which leg you kick is to swing the hand on the same side back, just like pulling a person. You can take a look at the leg sweep of the broadcast, which is very standard.

Muay Thai sweep leg revealed.

Muay Thai is known as the "eight-arm exercise" because of the "use of hands and feet, elbows and knees". With the holding of the Chinese Sanda and Muay Thai matches in recent years, the mystery of Muay Thai has gradually been revealed, allowing many Muay Thai fans to appreciate the fierce fighting style of Muay Thai. The Muay Thai fighter strikes ferociously and has a concise style of play, especially with his leg sweeps.

Sweeping the leg foot is a leg method of arc movement, the angle of the leg is small, and the attack is diagonal from about 45 degrees. However, in actual combat, Muay Thai fighters can constantly change the angle of their legs according to different situations. Because the sweeping leg hits the opponent from the back of the foot to the tibia, some people call it a shin kick.

The power of the sweep leg is huge, and the power of the sweep leg has been measured in the Japanese martial arts world and compared to the side kick of Japanese karate. In terms of a single style, the side kick is powerful, but if the attack time, frequency, and overall destructive force are calculated, the sweeping leg is several times more powerful than the side kick.

The sweeping leg can be divided into three types according to its attack threshold, that is, the high kick attacks the opponent's head and neck, which can often stun the opponent; Attacking the opponent's waist and abdomen with a mid-kick; Low kicks hit opponents' knees and calves. Because of the strength of the sweeping legs, the number of attack targets, and the easy control of body balance, it is used more frequently in Muay Thai matches.

Among modern Muay Thai fighters, there are three top masters who are famous for their sweeping legs: Sechai's kick rhythm is good, Guess's kick is strong, and Yabil's kick is the best. There are plenty of examples of Muay Thai fighters knocking out with leg sweeps.

In 1977, the Japanese kickboxing champion and Muay Thai master Nai Fo faced off, and in the first game, Nai Fo was hit in the neck by a left sweep leg and passed out. In the match between Yabil and Sechai, Yabil was kicked by a low kick by Sechai in the case of a steady victory, resulting in a knee injury and hatred on the stage, which caused a sensation and Sechai became famous.

The main reason why Muay Thai sweep leg is widely used is that the leg is fast, the strike is strong, the resistance is good, and it has great lethality. Muay Thai has a unique set of leg training.

Ligaments are just a step. Or sit down and press down with your legs together, etc. Honestly, it hurts.

It takes 2 weeks to see a little effect. There are 2 points of hardness in leg training. The first point is the strength of the legs.

You need to do more squats, stand-ups, and horse jumps (squatting and then keeping the horse up and down in a vertical step) and single leg jumps if necessary. The second point is the ability of the legs to resist blows. This is the most bitter ...

Muay Thai's leg sweep is widely considered to be the most lethal of the legs. Muay Thai is a pure hard skill, fighters need to go through a long and large number of sandbag kicks and continuous kicking target training, and even gravitational bands specifically train leg strength, as well as long-distance running, mountain running and other auxiliary training, pay great attention to leg skills. As a result, many MMA fighters also apply Muay Thai leg training to their daily routines.

Muay Thai kicks are tricky**, varied and the combination pattern is varied. It is the fulfillment of Chinese culture.

The continuous three-legged combination kick to the opponent is more injurious than the combination punch of the opponent's consecutive three punches, and the lethality and killing range of one leg exceed the principle of one punch. The application principle of the leg method is to use the pioneer leg to detect or intercept the opponent's kicking technique as a prelude, and use the rear leg to quickly sweep the opponent's vital points according to the arc route.

The leg technique in Muay Thai, in addition to the forward kick used to control the distance, is divided into three types: low kick, middle kick and high kick.

Low sweep

A leg method used to attack the opponent's thighs and calves, due to the short distance and fast speed, it is usually difficult for the opponent to have time to defend; However, since the legs do not have vital organs, the low sweep leg method usually does not achieve the effect of KO. A low kick is used in a contest to harass your opponent and provide cover for your punches.

If the low kick is heavy enough, consecutive hits can also deal quite terrifying damage. For example, in the UFC, José Aldo used consecutive low kicks against Uria Fipo, making him unable to stand and walk for a long time after the fight. However, this technique also needs to be wary of opponents' knees, which Anderson Silva once kicked in with a low kick that fractured his calf.

Medium scan

A leg technique used to attack the opponent's ribs and liver. Unlike low kicks, the ribs and liver are the most delicate areas that can be painful even in a slow low kick, not to mention a fast and powerful leg sweep by a Muay Thai trainer.

Despite its lethality, the middle kick is much more difficult to hit than the low kick, and the opponent can block with his arm or control the distance.

High sweep

The high kick is a leg attack on the opponent's head and neck, which requires high leg ligaments and good flexibility.

to be able to kick the legs up. The nerves in the head and neck of a person are densely packed, and it is a common part of the fight to be attacked, and if you take a high kick, you are likely to go into shock on the spot. But high kicks are also more difficult to knock out than the other two kicks, and it's usually the seasoned ones who pull off the technique.
