Question for Viewers: Are knees a legit self defense technique or just sport? They are taught all the time in self defense programs but are they ever used?
Never been in a street fight, but from MMA and Muay Thai I know that good knees are probably the most effective strike there is. And for street fights, there's no risk of breaking your hands or your shins, and they're harder to catch than kicks.
Good stuff..Mike Mouse! have you ever thought of me when you're saying..a man dance?..I imagined you naked already...I liked women before..what the fuck you did to me?. plus you didnt respond to my love letters?.. Yes...a knee in the balls is better than,,bite the nuts,,..method is valid is you are so hapless to go close to Mike Tyson?..is the only way,or you bite his earlobe! But in real street fights...it doent work,sorry....you know last time when I let you hit my dick with your forehead?..I bet you still are dizzy... Problem in street fight is this..you are so close to apply the knee..then you are close enough to apply the hand..capish espaniol muchachos?..aribba! Kissi:) ps..write me..I miss your love letters!
Loving how honest you're being linking to other people's videos. You're really adding value to the community man! I've already learned a lot from you, and I got to know kwonkicker through your channel
I've struggled with my kicks for years and it really frustes me. Of all the countless videos I've watched yours is the absolute best! I can't thank you enough!
I went to a Dellegrotte seminar and he had us do the last knee you show here as well. It's odd for sure, but very effective. Also I have seen a few people use knees in self defense (from the clinch) quite effectively.
Push the bag with straight arms until it's way up at 60 degrees, hold it there and knee it with alternate knees. Absolutely f'kin knackering, and it teaches you to really stretch.
I feel called out lol. I like those knee strikes, they feel good for close range counter attacks. My knee strikes are looking like 300 pounds because they tipped over a 300 pound kicking bag just barely. 300 feels pretty good to me.
I'm small too and the last time I clinched up with someone in Muay Thai Sparring I got kneed in the head :D . Ever since then I rely more on overhands and kicks to the legs and body set up by those overhands. A great way to set up your overhand is to establish a nice painful power-jab or cross to the body/solar plexus of the tall guy. Then they think low, you punch to the head and kick to the body or legs again.
Ah! The spear knee is my favorite too! I remember being in awe when I first saw it. Seeing how devastating it was "I thought I gotta add this to my arsenal !". I kinda think of it as half a sidekick.
Some Muay Thai trainers will say, "Scrape something off the sole of your foot". Now it's weird, but that just somehow sets you up for the knee. It's the right leg, low kick, they say, "Stamp your right foot, and relax". Again, there's something about stamp, relax, rotate that just seems to cause the kick.
Please make more vidéos about close range fighting for shorter fighters with short reach i would be so gratifull if you do that ...and by the way im a huge fan from moroco 🙏❤
I'm scared to throw knees at certain angles because sometimes it literally smashes my kneecap in weird directions. Is this a normal problem or do I have loose ligaments ? I don't understand how you land like a skip knee without pushing your kneecap down towards your shin
When learning it... yeah, make it as exact and precise as you can in training, then hopefully you retain as much control as possible under the stress of an actual fight. When your technique is perfect or close to, the power will come.
I wish my karate sensei had taught me some of these. Fight one week away. I wonder if I can manage a stuffing knee in that time. The opponent will never had seen it before and may presume it is just a defence. But, being so old, I am finding that it is difficult to get my knee up there, despite the fact I have been practising the Tsukamoto knee yourself in the face move. This is a good one, by way of an attempt at gratitude, from Karate. Tsukamoto says here ruclips.net/video/gqBRIUj9tFk/видео.html it is difficult to knee people in face like a bag infront of you. They get out of the way (he does not mention it but the kneer may have residual reticence). And they are out in front of you and further away. So... 1) Practice kneeing yourself in the face from the front then the side. 2) Put your face beside your opponents face. 3) Knee yourself in the face again with their face in the way. 4) If that does not work, knee them again in the side, but do a flying knee up the middle with the first knee as just a decoy for the second up the middle flyer.
I always thought of throwing your knees like a Roundhouse would generate more power but I'm 5'7" so I never got the opportunity to test out my theory 🤷🏽♂️ Thoughts Mike? PS With the Kwonkicker impression I thought you were gonna get a wide angle shot of you EEEESSHING with the knee blade strikes 😂🤣😂
Problem is you'd be hitting with the top of the knee which is no good. Not sure what you mean about a kwonkicker impression... that was a different video.
@@hard2hurt Lol let me try to clarify 2:04 " What's up guys, Kwonkicker here" At this point, I thought you were gonna keep going with the impression while you were showcasing the blade knee strikes You didn't and it's okay because you killed me with that impression in a previous video 😂 I saw the link and heard the mention of kwons videos All that aside, Your videos are great and very entertaining! Keep em rolling!
Sean and Kwonkicker combined have way less experience than these guys when it comes to knees ruclips.net/video/cdCB1s52fY0/видео.html 0:04-0:07 why on earth do you drop or throw your arm at kneeing distance? A good left hook and it's good night. At that range protection is way more important than any minute gain in power obtained by opening the defense.
@@hard2hurt I didn't mean to rain on your parade. Just offering my 0,1 cent based on my experience as a ex-fighter specialized in clinch and knee fighting.
That's ironiv you aren't afraid of the TKD " 'roundhouse,' " but ask,"How many inches do you need to move someone's organs around?" (Which is hilarious on its own! Good one!) So, have you ever learned the TKD "roundhouse" and would you ever take a tutorial on how to do it?
Question for Viewers: Are knees a legit self defense technique or just sport? They are taught all the time in self defense programs but are they ever used?
I've used knees in a self defense situation at least once. Personally it worked for me.
Icy Mike I need some guy in the balls by accident put him out for 10 minutes and that was with shitty technique as a weak kid
Never been in a street fight, but from MMA and Muay Thai I know that good knees are probably the most effective strike there is. And for street fights, there's no risk of breaking your hands or your shins, and they're harder to catch than kicks.
A front headlock and knees are a great way to deal with someone in a street fight, if you have some basic knowledge in takedown defense.
Good stuff..Mike Mouse! have you ever thought of me when you're saying..a man dance?..I imagined you naked already...I liked women before..what the fuck you did to me?. plus you didnt respond to my love letters?..

Well I don't know everything so I like to help people find the info they are looking for.
I've struggled with my kicks for years and it really frustes me. Of all the countless videos I've watched yours is the absolute best! I can't thank you enough!
Oh the taekwondorks joke got me. The air quotes to.
Man that girl is savage. I immediatly went outside to pratice those.
She scary.
Holy shit I love your vids bro. The kwonkicker shit was hilarious and your way of explaining the techniques is great.

Nobody should be kneeing to the head in sparring wtf was it an accident?

0:44 who's that?!
This is now my favorite video on RUclips 😂
Thank you so much man I appreciate it!

Holy shite! That chicks knees are scary. Never seen em quite like that.
Yeah she takes her opponents souls

Will do!
I’ve seen that Thai girl, but appreciate your links. She’s landing knees from half way across the ring.
Nice content!
I commented about that Thai teen just before you started talking about it, I need to finish the videos before I start talking
You're gonna screw up one of these days and wind up in a video too.
@@hard2hurt those will be my 2 minutes of fame
I'm kinda just waiting for you to pop out from behind one of those bags while saying,
"Hey what's up guys, Icy here..."
Not sure what you mean but ok...
@@Groteskfull that was a different video.
@@hard2hurt a Scarce thing. Y'know, the guy that popped out from behind the tree.

Why u so underatted...btw sub to u man
THIS IS SPARTA
Wait how do you defend against the stuffing knee I don’t know if I’m just affected by how helpless she made her opponents look but damn
That TKD Roundhouse one is actually useful when tied up, but I prefer Take Your Dough over “Tae Kwon Dork.”
Always chamber first?

it is difficult to knee people in face like a bag infront of you. They get out of the way (he does not mention it but the kneer may have residual reticence). And they are out in front of you and further away. So...
1) Practice kneeing yourself in the face from the front then the side.
2) Put your face beside your opponents face.
3) Knee yourself in the face again with their face in the way.
4) If that does not work, knee them again in the side, but do a flying knee up the middle with the first knee as just a decoy for the second up the middle flyer.

@@hard2hurt
Lol let me try to clarify
2:04
" What's up guys, Kwonkicker here"
At this point,
I thought you were gonna keep going with the impression while you were showcasing the blade knee strikes
You didn't and it's okay because you killed me with that impression in a previous video 😂
I saw the link and heard the mention of kwons videos

ADAM
who's adam??
I feel like my balls fly all over the place when I throw knees, is this normal or am I doing it wrong?
Wear a jock strap or cup when you're training buddy.
It's the Sitjapho knee dude
It looks (knee and knee stricks) and feels so fake and weak. However the world famous tv actor Bruce Lee said its good so it must be?
Look at thinkingman
That's ironiv you aren't afraid of the TKD " 'roundhouse,' " but ask,"How many inches do you need to move someone's organs around?" (Which is hilarious on its own! Good one!)
So, have you ever learned the TKD "roundhouse" and would you ever take a tutorial on how to do it?
