No_Know Say on Front Kick Problem of cturts
The bent knee in many of the examples seem to be due to a lack of flexibility. The kicks you uses will be lower
than the kicks you practice. But unless you practice higher your forward kicks can be strong but momentum reliant.
This is Kung-Fu, there's no Fix there's Practice. There's training....Front kick- Knee determines height of kick.
Knee before extension. Start stopping the kick before you reach your point of kick's end. If you haven't reached
the end of your kick your knee is still up. Knee supports the foreleg--you can push off the ground for part of it
but the rest of it or the drive comes from the gut to move the thigh. The foot grips or wrestles with the ground
to allow you to direrct the kick foot grips the Earth. This stability goes through the leg regulated by the gut.
Traditional Kung-Fu is a buzzword (buzzphrase)-some might use it for sales. Some for credibility. I think there
might have been a range of what was traditionally done. And people have their reasons. If you want good legs Keep
the support leg straight as you can lead with the knee.
An Aside practice to get improvement in a front kick. Lift the foot from the thigh, Not swinging-lifting by Will.
No bending all legs straight. Torso straight--leg lift Preferablly work-up to 200 each leg morning and evening.
Can be done in twenty-five minutes per session.
