There's a few techniques from Tae Kwon Do that are effective in MMA, and this one is my favorite. It was my specialty when I was competing in Tae Kwon Do tournaments.
jujitsu is brazilian.... ROFLMFAO. Well, it is not enough for retarded people to just be retarded in silence. They have to make it noticeable and to brag about it.
It's the hardest and most precise spinning back kick I've ever seen in my life - this guy is a BEAST. I wouldn't like to see what happens to the guy when he lands something like this on the ribcage or solar plexus. 90% it would finish the fight in the UFC, or at least knock the guy down breathless with couple broken ribs. Sick kick
@@Dwaynetheroc Not if you land it with the heel dude, a kick doesn't push people unless it's like a teep you'd see Muay Thai, pushing with the flat of the foot. Look at where his heel is hitting the bag, it bends inwards like you'd see with a Thai kick do, do you think a Low Kick just pushes your leg to the side? There's significantly more power in this and the heel is a very solid striking surface, it doesn't "cut' in the way the shin foes, it smashes into you like an elbow. Small striking surfaces with the power of the leg and hips behind it can easily break the lower ribs, with a severe hit that isn't properly taken potentially causing serious internal damage. Have you ever been hit by one of these? Go get a pad, find an old school taekwondo guy like Joe if you know one, and get them to hit you with it. The only reason people think this is because in sparring they get hit with low force controlled kicks. The real thing is very, very different. I've seen people flattened out even during ITF style sparring with pads let alone full contact. I mean the jumping variant of this can smash skulls, so, yeah, pretty sure ribs are on the menu.
If he had the opportunity to perform this to an untriained guy, in good circumstances I can guarantee death. Joe kicks like no one fucking else, shit is powerful.
I recently got kicked in the chest by a heavyweight with that kick. What made it worse was that I was pressed against a hard wall while we were sparring. He timed it just right and BOOM. I fell to my knees and was gasping for air. Those kicks are no joke. That shit hurt.
After drilling this kick for a few months now I finally broke my heavy bag off my garage beam so proud I leans this kick I karate but now I feel like it's more than just pretty it good my Muay Thai instructor was like where did that come from and I showed him this vid lol
Yeah good thing the camera guy was emphasize Joe's comment by adding " fuckin".....it REALLY drove home the point that Joe knew what he was talking about !
Great technique. Joe is so important for this sport. He is totally unbiased and also for some audience who don't know much about MMA he clears the picture within seconds in a fight. Favorite commentator ever.
Seriously. I'm excited to learn this one. I've watched a few of his videos and man it's harder than it looks. I'm just in my room practicing the twist and shit that's awkward.
blake w i completely agree with you about comparing arts and though we both could be wrong i have a strong reason to believe(aka, mounds of evidence) that it is very much as nuanced as you alluded too. people tend to believe that arts that have little resistance training like tkd or karate are either completely effective(usually the people taking the art caught in tradition, just like a religion) or they are people who can see through the bs and can tell its mostly ineffective. the jury has been in and it seems that the arts with resistance training are the ones that are most effective because they have corrective mechanisms and can evolve accordingly. but yeah, when i took tkd as a kid in america, the punches for sparring were all boxing technique. but they never told us this. the punches from traditional tkd would get a person beat up in most situations etc etc. as far as implication...thats where i disagree somewhat. if a grappler gets a tkd guy on the ground, its curtains for the tkd guy. where as in stand up....the grappler can have a way better chance at stand up than the tkd guy will have on the ground, likely due to tkds pitfalls. The same goes for even a blue belt in bjj vs a black belt...no amount of implication is going to give the blue belt the knowledge to beat the black belt. its too wide of an experience and skill gap. and i use that example so you know im not just some biased asshole against TMA. this is a result of much examination and critical thought
lowlowseesee I agree with that as well. Im second degree in TKD, and I feel its more of a gateway to other martial arts, like kung fu and muay thai. I still take TKd, because in a couple circumstances the kicks that I learned there have saved me from having the shit kicked out of me on the street. But now i also take ju-do and jujitsu for more practical reasons. I feel having a wide range of experience in martial arts is more beneficial than spending your whole life perfecting one specific art.
blake w thats very wise of you to supplement and also the mixing has been proven to be a better way to go about life. to each their own for sure though, like think about how often many of us will get in an altercation the older we get...its really minimum. im 36 now and i live a simple life. especially if you live in the states where shit is relatively safe or there are just guns involved(kicks matter less here)....someone can stick to one art and be safe from an ass beating. and if that art is an art like boxing or judo or bjj, arts with resistance in the training...one can be real effective in an actual fight. ive only been in one real all out fight and even then i modified my tkd to the point where it looked like muay thai. i broke someones nose with multiple knees which were really front kicks but half the motion. i was really deep into bruce lee as a kid and jkd(which i also trained in a little) so i could tell that things i was taught (wide stances and useless blocks, NO HEAD MOVEMENT) would get me killed in an actual fight. kids are lucky these days, mma is popular and there are numerous vids of street fights to watch to crush any myths. back in my day this was not the case
That distance is fucking dangerous... I thought he was bullshitting before that 360, anyone would be frozen in their jeans before that thing blows your guts out.
You should do more of these videos Joe, your a very good teacher, I pretty much got this kick down now, and I've been practicing like 20 minutes, not even.
This is exactly how Jae Hun Kim taught us to do that kick. It was kind of his trade mark. Direct, powerful, minimizing any openings to the opponent. Joe Rogan has not lost any of the quickness I remember of him back in the 80s when we trained at Mr. Kim's TKD institute. He is naturally gifted, though I do wish he would give credit to his former TKD teacher for what he has learned. It was the foundation of the brilliant pyramid of martial skill Mr. Rogan has built over the years.
Remember guys to tell the guy you're fighting not to move or block the kick because that would defeat you looking cool. Tell them the bag doesn't move so they can't move either.
Jo the fuckin man u use to entertain me with fear factor win u was a kid now ur giving me tips on how to improve my spinning side kick it's like ur family thanks man 👊
i did shotokan and always had a strong side kick but never noticed the twist part. i started adding it and now even with someone holding a pad i have to back off bc i accidentlly cracked someones ribs through the pad. its amazing how that one little modification makes such a huge difference
(Joe Rogan) in 1981, at age fourteen, he became a practitioner of Kenpo Karate before transitioning to Taekwondo. He eventually gained a 2nd dan black belt. A four-time state champion in Massachusetts, in 1987 he was the USA Taekwondo U.S. Open Champion. In 1996, he began training in Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu under Jean Jacques Machado, eventually earning his brown belt. In addition, he holds a brown belt in 10th Planet Jiu-Jitsu under Eddie Bravo. He also practiced and competed in kickboxing.
Amazing! The most powerful kick usually is a straight one. From my experience, my specialty power kick was the front kick, also a straight kick. But looking at this, adding a turn followed by straight side kick, its definitely more powerful. The only thing to add to that to make it more powerful is to use the heel as the only contact point rather than the conventional knife-of-the-foot. One of the contributing factor that makes the front kick powerful is the small point if impact, which is the ball of the foot. Using the heel-only would bring the deadliness to a higher level. But I must say that the "twist" which you explain is actually not present. When you demonstrate the moment of impact in a static position there is a twist. This is because as you demonstrate you start of facing front, so you have to do the twist to get your body in the same position as the moment of impact.But when you perform the technique from beginning to end, the turn is lead by the hips and the upper body follows through so there is no twist. In fact, when performing a sidekick even without the twist, you would want to minimise the twist. Although, due to the natural physique, eliminating twist completely during a sidekick with the front leg without the twist is impossible. The reason why you'd want to minimise the twist is because as you twist your upper-body, hence your upper-body-weight, will move in the opposite direction to the direction of impact hence canceling out some of the momentum. This reduces the power of the kick.
Using the heel would not add enough power vs the risk of slightly missing your target and losing balance on a glancing strike, making you vulnerable to counter attacks (mainly sweeps or takedowns in MMA). Using the blade makes balance easier to control on impact, and potentially create space if not 100% on target (assuming your opponent is always moving), particularly as your eyes turn away from the opponent at point of impact for power.
@@jjjsmith2497 Oh, actually what I meant was using my reverse side (i.e. my back leg) to excel it e a front kick to the solar plexus. I'm not sure whether we use same terms for different meanings or not.
thanks joe for the video this has really helped me understand the small hip twists and such in kicking that make them powerful dude idk how you handle all the hate people send your way, just remember there is a whole shitload of people that fucking love you, dont allow these sheeple to discourage you
I feel like joe Rogans TKD is effective since it’s traditional tkd even with the high kicks and such Bc i think he undermines his own ability, he for his size can hit very hard even harder than guys bigger than me
Can't be a Joe Rogan clip without him randomly mentioning something outta nowhere - "It's one of those kicks that comp- Look there's a lizard in here!"
Wait. Is this the Spinning Side Kick or the Spinning Back Kick? They're two different things, correct? A spinning side-kick would be extended more to the front of the body, from the side of the hip, outwards with the hips basically still up-and-down though slightly turned, and this kick can be fired even if your facing the opponent frontally without turning the body completely. The spinning back-kick would be where the body is turned completely and so are the hips, meaning the kick is fired more from your back-side or behind you. This kick is mostly thrown blind, targeted before the actual spin, though some people master the movement enough to be able to turn their heads and lock their eyes to their target strike-zone.
Brendan Jackson Im not a fan of back kicks due to kicking blind.... almost like i have no other kick/ technique to use so I'm going to do this?? Plus its VERY unstable and puts you at great disadvantage it they can see it coming.
Damn i just tried this out and i gotta say my sidekick has improved greatly i used to try and throw that kick and I would end up with a sharp pain in my hip but after trying it the proper way no pain and the kick is 100% better thanks Joe..i'll continue to practice and eventually master it..one of my favorite kicks as well
In fights growing up we called anyone that kicked a bitch... i think we all just made a unified decision as a neighborhood that we didnt want to deal with kicks like that... so we were ironically all bitches. 😂
This kick is never used in MMA, the kick that people see is the spinning side kick. This kick can shatter bones, I have no idea why people do not use it. The only downside of this kick is it swaps your lead leg when you preform it.
+Giygas Watch Cung Le, Conor McGregoror or GSP fight and you'll see they use the turning side kick/ spinning back kick. And unless I'm missing something huge, the names are used pretty interchangeably because even when I used to train in TKD it'd just be a spinning back kick. Even in the beginning of the video, 0:20 , Joe says "the turning side kick, or the spinning back kick."
+Tim Cho Yeah, according to Joe, the difference is not the name but the technique. But why not then differentiate the techniques using the two different names??? lol
***** Thank you, this pretty much answers my doubt. I believe you are 100% correct on the giveaway, and the takedown. From what it seems; to really throw this kick you need to time it and have amazing jujitsu. Anyways thanks for the response - makes sense.
***** Is that a little true of spinning attacks in general, too, because I've noticed that smart strikers against grapplers will avoid spinning attacks altogether. If worried about a takedown, limit kicks and avoid spinning, yes?
***** Admittedly, I was actually describing one particular fighter's adjustments to her style, Joanna Jedrzejczyk. She used to throw more kicks and spinning attacks in Muay Thai and still did some a bit in earlier MMA fights, but when going against strong grapplers in UFC she lowers her stance, never spins, and limits kicks, sometimes not kicking at all in the first round or until she spots a predictable opportunity. Maybe her thinking is not so much about avoiding certain attacks against certain opponents but more about how long it takes her to get a good sense of an opponent's movements when the style differs from Muay Thai. And a mistake in timing, especially on a spin, can so easily end so poorly, as in how many fights I can remember ending moments later on the ground in a submission.
I have the same thing. ii find it very strange; But recently I discovered that altough I write with my right hand, and kick a ball for example with py left leg, my left arm punches harder then my right hand. I ever knew that. So I was always using the wong arm to ko someone in a fight. My goal now is to be a good kicker with both legs.
Joe. I also am a big fan of the back sidekick. It’s all in the way you pivot your hip and your front leg. That’s where all your accuracy,speed and strength comes from. I Taekwondo from 87 till 2000 and I still practice every day after 38 years old and I still my favorite kick
I am long in the tooth now, but I used to love that kick being 6'5" I would cover a lot of ground. My opponents would go flying backwards when it connected. Great kick.
Many, many years ago I was sparring with a guy who was a black belt in TKD (I have no formal martial arts training, I just have years of experience sparring) he performed this exact kick on me and his heel hit my solar plexus. It was a very interesting sensation. Trying to breathe but you cant breathe. In our later sparring sessions he tried to replicate this event but he was unsuccessful. Pain can be a good teacher.
I want to see and hear joes opinion/technique for a jumping turning side kick and whether it could be used effectively in the UFC because it’s literally my favourite kick but it only really works as a defensive kick unless you want to take a big risk by leaving yourself exposed after the jump or while jumping.
Minzii111 You have to know when to throw it! Say i throw a front to the stomach(this probably will knock the wind out of you and buckle your knees) When you are bended, swing the Axe down and break your collar bone.
wow Joe,Impressive....not the kick just the fact you point your toes in opposite direction... I never owned a Gym Bud did teach to train free at finds class. I loved working with the kids. FORM MATTERS. Ive seen so many students come from other schools that I had ro reteach them to kick and strike. Like dropping your weight as you strike will give you more power if done the correct way.. Best way to get peoples kicks back in form is Tabletops using a chair or a BowStaff
yoo! Joe Rogan's is the only guy i can say.. that have a perfect side kick, hands down..he can smoke a blunt and pull that shit off perfectly..so im giving this title to joe rogan's when it comes to side kicks
That kick of yours has started a debate amongst both you and Mike Tyson's fan I suspect.btw,how would you fare against him in an mma match,5rds!?that's the hot topic going on now,and you aren't doing too bad as per the polls 👍60-40 to Mike for me, since Mike is older(?)(gotta show some respect there I guess 🤔)I am a huge fan of both of you guys.❤️✌️

Front kick was always my weakest kick, and reverse side was strongest..
Glad to know someone can do it better:)
it's because he twisted really fast, otherwise you would basically tell your opponent your next move
The amazing thing is that you tried to explain to joe rogan his own specialty kick
Using the heel would not add enough power vs the risk of slightly missing your target and losing balance on a glancing strike, making you vulnerable to counter attacks (mainly sweeps or takedowns in MMA).

@@jjjsmith2497 Oh, actually what I meant was using my reverse side (i.e. my back leg) to excel it e a front kick to the solar plexus. I'm not sure whether we use same terms for different meanings or not.
thanks joe for the video this has really helped me understand the small hip twists and such in kicking that make them powerful dude idk how you handle all the hate people send your way, just remember there is a whole shitload of people that fucking love you, dont allow these sheeple to discourage you
I feel like joe Rogans TKD is effective since it’s traditional tkd even with the high kicks and such Bc i think he undermines his own ability, he for his size can hit very hard even harder than guys bigger than me
thats a lot of fucking power

Cameraman was Eddie Bravo!
But when i side step that kick and karate chop your leg in half, i capture all that torque and skip over your dead body.

I once took a spinning round house kick from Chuck Norris on the side of my temporal lobe. Chuck apologized and I let him leave the dojo.
Can't be a Joe Rogan clip without him randomly mentioning something outta nowhere - "It's one of those kicks that comp- Look there's a lizard in here!"
Anyone else here because Cenk supposedly can kick joes ass?
Wait. Is this the Spinning Side Kick or the Spinning Back Kick?
They're two different things, correct?
A spinning side-kick would be extended more to the front of the body, from the side of the hip, outwards with the hips basically still up-and-down though slightly turned, and this kick can be fired even if your facing the opponent frontally without turning the body completely.
The spinning back-kick would be where the body is turned completely and so are the hips, meaning the kick is fired more from your back-side or behind you. This kick is mostly thrown blind, targeted before the actual spin, though some people master the movement enough to be able to turn their heads and lock their eyes to their target strike-zone.
***** Thanks friend!
Sondonen A back kick and side kick are too different kicks.
Brendan Jackson
Im not a fan of back kicks due to kicking blind.... almost like i have no other kick/ technique to use so I'm going to do this??
Plus its VERY unstable and puts you at great disadvantage it they can see it coming.
OH a lizard! lol
Damn i just tried this out and i gotta say my sidekick has improved greatly i used to try and throw that kick and I would end up with a sharp pain in my hip but after trying it the proper way no pain and the kick is 100% better thanks Joe..i'll continue to practice and eventually master it..one of my favorite kicks as well
How are you now, 9 years later?
Imagine Rogan cloning himself and having a young Rogan getting into MMA with that killing kick
In fights growing up we called anyone that kicked a bitch... i think we all just made a unified decision as a neighborhood that we didnt want to deal with kicks like that... so we were ironically all bitches. 😂
This kick is never used in MMA, the kick that people see is the spinning side kick. This kick can shatter bones, I have no idea why people do not use it. The only downside of this kick is it swaps your lead leg when you preform it.
+Giygas Watch Cung Le, Conor McGregoror or GSP fight and you'll see they use the turning side kick/ spinning back kick. And unless I'm missing something huge, the names are used pretty interchangeably because even when I used to train in TKD it'd just be a spinning back kick.
Even in the beginning of the video, 0:20 , Joe says "the turning side kick, or the spinning back kick."
+Tim Cho
Yeah, according to Joe, the difference is not the name but the technique. But why not then differentiate the techniques using the two different names??? lol
***** Thank you, this pretty much answers my doubt. I believe you are 100% correct on the giveaway, and the takedown. From what it seems; to really throw this kick you need to time it and have amazing jujitsu. Anyways thanks for the response - makes sense.
***** Is that a little true of spinning attacks in general, too, because I've noticed that smart strikers against grapplers will avoid spinning attacks altogether. If worried about a takedown, limit kicks and avoid spinning, yes?
***** Admittedly, I was actually describing one particular fighter's adjustments to her style, Joanna Jedrzejczyk. She used to throw more kicks and spinning attacks in Muay Thai and still did some a bit in earlier MMA fights, but when going against strong grapplers in UFC she lowers her stance, never spins, and limits kicks, sometimes not kicking at all in the first round or until she spots a predictable opportunity. Maybe her thinking is not so much about avoiding certain attacks against certain opponents but more about how long it takes her to get a good sense of an opponent's movements when the style differs from Muay Thai. And a mistake in timing, especially on a spin, can so easily end so poorly, as in how many fights I can remember ending moments later on the ground in a submission.
Back when I trained in martial arts I always kicked with my left leg even though I am right handed. I never could use my right leg very well. Weird.
+bax323 I'm right handed left footed, embrace it man, you'll switch stances a lot more and mix it up and make more unique combinations.
just like me , but now through thousands of training , I'm ambidestrous
I have the same thing. ii find it very strange; But recently I discovered that altough I write with my right hand, and kick a ball for example with py left leg, my left arm punches harder then my right hand. I ever knew that. So I was always using the wong arm to ko someone in a fight. My goal now is to be a good kicker with both legs.
I'm right-handed, right-footed, play baseball righty, play golf righty, play basketball righty...
...I have a left-handed shot when I play hockey. idk
I'm left handed and my strongest kick has always been my right leg. My strongest punch is my left hand, though. Probably not unusual at all.

Joe. I also am a big fan of the back sidekick. It’s all in the way you pivot your hip and your front leg. That’s where all your accuracy,speed and strength comes from. I Taekwondo from 87 till 2000 and I still practice every day after 38 years old and I still my favorite kick
I am long in the tooth now, but I used to love that kick being 6'5" I would cover a lot of ground. My opponents would go flying backwards when it connected. Great kick.
Pivot! they key is to Pivot

Legend says that Joe Rogan ended up knocking out a person in the other room with that demonstration :o
"there's a lizard in here look at this"
I love the ADD bro!
The lizard was like, "Fuck this shit, I am not getting my ass literally kicked to death!"
Eddie Bravo “I wonder how much Staph that is going to bring in”😂😂
That shit would crush your organs against bone.
This really helped me get the technique down. I was improperly thought how to do this kick.
Wanna know why Joe isn't a fighter in UFC ?
This video explains everything
Tony the type of guy to put a lizard into the gym for investigation purposes.
“I wonder how much staph thats gonna bring in…”
I did this to my girlfriend and broke 4 of her ribs, thanks
Tony Ferguson even cringes when Joe Rogan throws a kick.
Many, many years ago I was sparring with a guy who was a black belt in TKD (I have no formal martial arts training, I just have years of experience sparring) he performed this exact kick on me and his heel hit my solar plexus. It was a very interesting sensation. Trying to breathe but you cant breathe. In our later sparring sessions he tried to replicate this event but he was unsuccessful. Pain can be a good teacher.
Love your kicks man. I will be attempting to do the turning side kick 😎🦵
I want to see and hear joes opinion/technique for a jumping turning side kick and whether it could be used effectively in the UFC because it’s literally my favourite kick but it only really works as a defensive kick unless you want to take a big risk by leaving yourself exposed after the jump or while jumping.
"It's one of those kicks tha- hey a lizard'
All TKD kicks work in a fight! Front Kicks, Side kicks, Roundhouse Kicks, Spinning hook kicks,Axe Kicks...i can go on and on!
axe kicks dont
Minzii111
You have to know when to throw it! Say i throw a front to the stomach(this probably will knock the wind out of you and buckle your knees) When you are bended, swing the Axe down and break your collar bone.
Minzii111 Go watch andy hug axe kicks.
Thanks bro, I used it during a sparing session and it landed perfect.! Awesome
I love how he was instantly distracted by the lizard
wow Joe,Impressive....not the kick just the fact you point your toes in opposite direction... I never owned a Gym Bud did teach to train free at finds class. I loved working with the kids. FORM MATTERS. Ive seen so many students come from other schools that I had ro reteach them to kick and strike.
Like dropping your weight as you strike will give you more power if done the correct way.. Best way to get peoples kicks back in form is Tabletops using a chair or a BowStaff
the funny thing is... even the cameraman is scared
That is a lot of Fucking power. The right timing on that kick to someone chest will most certainly stop someones heart. Ouch!
I gave my friend a nice side kick to the stomach once... i felt bad.. but to be fair we were kickboxing
LMAOOOO I was so not expecting that SQUIRREL type reaction to the lizard from what I thought was a professional demonstration I'm weak 🤣🤣 freaking Joe
Very powerful spinning (turning) side kick! Properly taught TKD teaches you how to hit reeeeally hard!
And Cenk says he could end this guy....... Lol
Hey joe, want to spar full contact
I've watched this vid so many times. This kick is absolutely amazing. Love watching people that have mastered a movement.
yoo! Joe Rogan's is the only guy i can say.. that have a perfect side kick, hands down..he can smoke a blunt and pull that shit off perfectly..so im giving this title to joe rogan's when it comes to side kicks
some stuntman needs to volunteer to be kicked wearing a bomb suit or something to see how far they'd fly from rogan's kick, lol.
power strong cuz earth flath :)
Don't fuck with Joe.
damm joe! i would never want to get hit with that kick from you.............. that kick will make you spit blood!
You know how much staph that things gunna bring in? "Really!' I don't know...
That kick of yours has started a debate amongst both you and Mike Tyson's fan I suspect.btw,how would you fare against him in an mma match,5rds!?that's the hot topic going on now,and you aren't doing too bad as per the polls 👍60-40 to Mike for me, since Mike is older(?)(gotta show some respect there I guess 🤔)I am a huge fan of both of you guys.❤️✌️
