How to Set Up a Martial Arts Home Gym

1. All kickboxing here that isn't MT outlaws low kicks. I was wondering if it'due south the aforementioned everywhere.

2. My kickboxing doesnt allow depression kicks.

   I thought that was i of the differences between MT and kickboxing
   MT= kickboxing + low kicks, elbows and knees.

   Are you immune spinning back fist in your kickboxing?

3. Local kickboxing gym allows SBF, yep.

4. No low kicks here either! Although I originally trained in muay Thai, and so at to the lowest degree know what I'm missing.

   Do you do much in the way of elbows and knees? When I did MT, these were cadre techniques, only kickboxing seems to omit them. My kickboxing club appears to be more acrobatic in its kicking techniques though. Less practical on the street - at least at my level of (in)ability - merely lots of fun (which is why I train)

5. What is the reason for non using low kicks? Local kickboxing gym states it'southward considering "Our knees would go too damaged!" which is utter nonsense. I've taken plenty of roundhouses to the legs and shins without any damage. Why are kickboxers besides wimpy to use low kicks?

6. Well, my gym doesnt do elbows/knees/depression kicks for the reason- "Nosotros all have to go to work in the morning and so information technology would be skilful to walk there...and still take a confront and intact ribs"

   I'm not to fussed about missing out. We exercise clinch work though.

7. I tin run across your betoken about disallowing elbows and knees to the confront, but why not allow knees to the body and thighs, elbows to the body and low kicks? Even after taking massive low kick penalization, the worst injury I had was walking funny for a week or and so. Not very socially crippling.

8. I dont know, the guy is pretty tough (international champ etc).

   Im quite glad about not allowing depression kicks- my knees are feeling bad at the mo equally information technology is. The thought of them getting kicked does not entreatment.

   Horses for courses etc.

9. You generally don't accept a lot of kicks to the knees. The betoken of the bones low roundhouse kicking is to chop through the thighs, not the knees, and even when you occasionally Practice get hit on the side of the knee, your stance should preclude y'all from taking much impairment anyhow. Side and stomp kicks to the articulatio genus is another matter.
   If you lot want to starting time sparring with low kicks nevertheless, yous do need to learn how to shin/human knee block properly, or y'all volition have some SOOORE legs!

10. My kickboxing club allows low kicks in sparring but no stomp kicks to the knees (for obvious reasons). The guild does teach thai boxing elements (knee and elbows strikes) and besides some grappling techniques though then its not a purely kickboxing club.

11. Yes, we are taught to use depression kicks in our SD classes.

12. well my kickboxing school lets us use low kicks in grooming
    in fact i fight with leg kicks (in thai shorts)
    and my sensei won a title in fighting with his low kicks!
    his low kicks won him the fight!!!

13. how tin can you do clinch work when y'all arent allowed to articulatio genus or elbow? clinching is used to set up those up, those and throws.

14. Hooking and uppercutting, I imagine. Like in battle.

15. Nope, we are FC rules almost exclusively. The PKA (who I am with) are american rules only, and the other gym which i occasionally attend offers thai/low kick rules, but no one really does them. Never interested me, anyway.American rules=above waist only
    Low kick/international rules = American + low kicks
    Muay Thai=international + elbows + knees

    International is based on America beingness "home". So basically non american For total rules of any of the 2 kickboxing styles, contact me.

    Nope. PKA and WAKO practice not let spinning backfist as it is considered "blind" I'm non sure most WKA. I think the IKF also state that all punches must be with the forepart of the glove. If they let you dial how you want, it makes it hard for referees to judge slaps from 18-carat, hard strikes.

16. Basically, the clinch (at least in american rules) will involve some rabbit punching (like boxing ). Also, it is not liked past refs or fighters, then unremarkably the 2 fighters push button each other apart quite quickly. I dont like the fact that since not all fighters over 18 have to clothing headguards (even amateurs), they give the opportunity of a headbutt, too.

    The clinchwork expert, though, is mainly pushing away and punching, tbh.

17. the WKA were the first to bridge the spinnign backfist

    under the WKA rules

    "kickboxing rules" allows leg kicks and figthers vesture thai shorts and kickboots (but no shinpads unless amateur ruels)

    Under WAKO Pro kickboxing low boot rules ,...
    the earth titles used to be 12x2 mins (only like Full contact which is kicking above waist)
    now world titles are 5x3mins and
    once more WAKO pro low kick rules fight in thai shorts , WAKO pro used to use boots but now theyve binned/banned /removed them to make carry feets

18. I exercise Chinese Kickboxing, and although low kicks and elbows aren't allowed during sparring or in competition, (we use the semi-contact rules)
    nosotros are still taught the techniques due to their obvious self-defence benefits.

19. what?
    chinese kickboxin?
    not lau gar is information technology?

    it amazes me that people really call information technology "kickboxing" no offense but id call it a watered down freestyl;eastward karate/kung fu hybrid system
    NEVER phone call it kickboxing though
    even though y'all may play around with kickboxing concepts

20. We use low kicks in our chinese kickboxing besides. Can't see much utilize in high kicks, to be honest.
