STOP THROWING BLIND LOW KICKS
One of the easiest ways to get your low kick checked is to simply throw it on its own.
If your opponent can see the kick coming, they have plenty of time to react and lift their leg to check.
Instead, I like to hide my low kicks behind my punches.
The punches occupy your opponent, draw their attention upstairs and make the low kick much harder to read.
Here are 5 boxing & low kick combinations you can practise:
1. Jab, Cross, Left Hook, Right Low Kick
2. Jab, liver punch, Right Low Kick
3. Jab, cross to the body, left hook, fake right low kick, left hook, right low kick
4. jab, right body punch, cross, liver punch, right low kick.
5. Jab, liver punch, right over hand, right low kick.
Don’t just think about throwing punches and then adding a low kick. Think about how the punches are helping to disguise and create the opening for the kick.
Give them a try on the pads or bag and see how you get on. 👊
Which combination would you be most likely to use — 1, 2, 3, 4 or 5? 👇
