Why Spin Kicks Work In A Real Fight

- Опубликовано: 15 сен 2024
- The reason spin kicks work in a real fight is because they are powerful kicks and fast. Spin kicks use the longest limbs of the body which are the legs. The legs are also the strongest extremities of the body with the largest and strongest muscles. The surface area of impact with a spin kick is the heel, a very hard bone on the foot. The foot is the furthest extension out from the legs as the kicker spins 360 degrees creating the strongest torque possible on the leg which causes a massive amount of force at impact which can totally incapacitate an opponent, and logically even kill a person.
The reason we have not seen a spin kick death in any combat sport (that we know) is because trained fighters can handle more damage, use evasive techniques and defensive postures that keep them from dying in the cage. There have been deaths of course in combat sports with other techniques, so it is not absurd to assume that a spin kick could kill another human being as well since it is a harder impacting strike, especially on the streets if a trained martial artist kicks an untrained “normie” thug.
Torque is defined as “a measure of the force that can cause an object to rotate about an axis.” Your body spinning, at the waist and hips, is the axis, and your leg kicking outward and clearing across at head level is the force rotating.
The heel bone is called the calcaneus, and is the strongest and hardest bone in the foot. Striking someone with powerful force using the back of the heel as the surface area of impact can hurt an enemy really bad. The target areas on the enemy with a spin kick are in a general sense, the head and face region. More particular, the temples on the side of the head, the jaw, the area just behind the ear, the ear itself, the side of the neck, and if the enemy is bladed out sideways the nose, eye sockets, and front of the chin.
You can of course perform lower angled spin kicks on other parts of an enemy’s body, but for the purpose of this discussion we are focused on the head region. A good spin kick will knock someone out.

This video was very insightful. I hope you got paid for plugging Doc Martens shoes lol
@@Babygirlly555 I don't get paid for anything I make except occasionally people clicking add here and there but that's about it. I'm not a very big fan of doc martens and they make so many cheap quality boots nowadays. I was too young to wear them in their heyday. But the pair of docs I do have are really great! The Combs Tech II! I wear them for all of my security jobs.
The other boots I wear that are pinkish are my Grinders boots. Other than that I wear random casual boots for whatever occasions.
And thank you for the compliment! 😊
Hopefully your opponent is slow and doesn't take advantage of the fact you turned your back on him.
@@daveg5857 So in high level MMA where both fighters have extreme skill and spin kicks, back kicks, skin elbows and back fists etc were thrown and connected what happened? The guy turned his back on the other person. Nothing happened except the guy connecting with a strong blow. His back turning had no bad consequences for him.
Do you think that a train martial artist that can also do a similar type of technique against an average Street thug who wants to fight him cannot also turn his back in a spinning type of move and have success?
Why do people like you assume that anytime you turn your back in a fight using a strike or a spinning maneuver it is somehow means you he automatically lose or even die? What's the statistics do you have for that? By what authority do you make that claim?
@@MaharlikaAWA Could work. I just think it's risky. I think it makes you vulnerable for a second. Seems to me when these strikes connect, the recipient was usually dazed to begin with.
All these “blank works best in a street fight…..” are a lot like junk food. They taste good, but will kill you over time.
As a martial artist of multiple disciplines, The “best martial art” for the street is whatever you have trained so much that you don’t even think about it.
I am a black belt in TKD and 3X state champion in sparing. The first time I sparred with a BJJ blue belt, he absolutely destroyed me. In fact, every time I sparred with him, he destroyed me. Now I am a BJJ blue belt, and I believe it is fantastic in most any street situation, BUT here is the truth: very few people will ever be in a street fight. Of that few, fewer still are trained in anything. If you have any training in any disciplines, you are far more likely to “win” in a situation.
@@artoflifehomestead998 that's pretty much the truth. I'm also a BJJ blue belt. I did my TKD sparring days in the 90s and won enough. Pretty much an untrained person attacking is going to be susceptible to martial arts moves from a trained martial artist.
i am a great karate player and spin kicks are my favorites and what ever this man said was right just be careful with these because using it with no practice is use less stick to the normal ones and then level up and most important of them all DONT FIGHT IN THE STEEETS
Alternatively you can use a spinning back fist or elbow with similar effect. Not as much force. But get hit with on in the mouth and you have to consider whether that fight is worth it. I’ve used a spinning elbow in real life. Didn’t connect well but enough to deter my opponent.
Fastest way to get dropped is to throw a spinning kick. You will wind up on the ground and worse.
@@djwordnyc I don't think that is true. There are faster ways to get dropped. And it's not a fact you will end up on the ground. I showed two clips of skin kick use in street fights and the fighters did not end up on the ground. So your premise is wrong.
@@MaharlikaAWA You showed 2 clips and you think this is a good idea, that is hilarious. Anytime you turn your back to your attacker/opponent you are risking a take down a getting a head shot at an angle. Side stepping a spinning kick is easy, I see it all the time in sparring. The vast majority of people DO NOT have the accuracy and the spinning speed to land a successful spinning back kick. A spinning elbow or fist is way more accurate because the distance is closer. So your evidence is weak....
5:55 that was staged, if the kicks and punches were real the other guy would have been knocked back. jumping spinner guys get knocked out in karate tournaments. spin kicks work at the lower levels. tennis shoes are great in real fighting because they grip the skin of the guy getting kicked. the narrator was stuffier than Higgins in Magnum P I
Many of the factual things you mention, such as rotational force, velocity and mass, are correct enough. But when you find arguments for your claim that spinning back kick is useful in a real fight by 'you once knew a guy' - then you lack evidence. MMA/UFC can also not be compared to 'real fighting'. It's sport. On the street, there are too many unknown factors to take into account and losing your balance and ending up on the ground is not a good place to be. But thanks for the showing a series of very dynamic kicks.
@@uchida47 I'm just going to have to disagree with you. I'm not saying it's a go to kick as I said in the video it is a rare thing but it is possible. The premise of the video is that it is possible to do it and it can work. Not that you should just do it every time and expect it to always work. I did show to video clips of people throwing a spin kick and not falling over and it working. UFCis as real as it gets and can actually be compared to real fighting. Because it is a real fight even if the rules exist. The difference is clothing you would wear shoes and yes, things on the ground, and multiple attackers etc. but for you to say it is a fact 100% without a doubt absolute truth that a sprinkler cannot work in a street fight, I say you were wrong.
I have used a spin kick in a real fight
@@lancecorporalveteran0621 Tell me about it.
@MaharlikaAWA I got jumped by three guys. One hit me in the back of the head, so I kept spinning and kicking, which forced them to back off. One even tripped trying to get away, so I was basically winning
but then 5 more ran across the street and took me down, and they all kicked me in the face
@@lancecorporalveteran0621I feel your pain. Some wannabe gang bangers in the 90s jumped me too. So did you hit one in the head with a spin kick?
@MaharlikaAWA Nope they kept backing off and running away I guess the other guys didn't like seeing their buddies losing so they came up behind me and knocked me down
See real fights videos of tae kwon do vs muay thai. See champions of both styles in fighijg each other. Muay thai always wins.
Nonsense ... you end up on the ground quicker than the other person. Things like that work extremely poorly in a street fight. What works are short, straight deep kicks if the distance is there, otherwise kicks are far too dangerous for yourself. Because aggression and pressure forward is what makes a street fight and not a Taekwondo-like jumping around ... If you have the time to jump around, then it's no longer a street fight ... because then any sane person will draw their weapon and end the thing straight away ... in a Streetfight, Selfdefence there are no rules!
@@HEMA-NRW Sorry dude, we don't live in medieval Europe and carry long swords around and armor. Spin kicks do work in street fights and I showed video proof. Just because you can't perform them doesn't mean they are impossible to use. Try again.
@@MaharlikaAWA Sure, I can also jump around like a floor gymnast, fly through the air and then land on the opponent, that can work too. A combat technique or principle that should work must have a high tolerance for errors and be as simple as possible and independent of disruptive environmental factors.
@@HEMA-NRW a spin kick is pretty easy to do if you practice it.
