I feel entirely introduced
Oh hey it's Sweet T right? You're the guy in the video! 🤣🤣🤣
😂😂
Is that cuz side kicks don't work? 😂
@@lalchungnungaralte9104 no he is a diffrent guy
@@seanmma5771 I know. I was being sarcastic
"It's a good thing we train these so you don't use them." Best comment of the week. lol
@George Washington wtf lol
@George Washington Nonsense... Project Veritas spews false information to push a narrative. OKeefe has already been disproven multiple times in the past.
True martial artist right there.
@Seeing Through Ahh yes, I'm a commie because I don't blindly follow Veritas garbage lol. Comedy gold.
Mr T is just raw in the best type of way. Love it 😂👏
@Pedro M lol
@Pedro M Umm...are y'all one of THOSE couples?
@Pedro M y’all one of those freak couples lol
@Pedro M how much you willing to pay?
You a g sensei 🙏🔥
I'd love a breakdown on the lead leg inside kick!
I second this.
Lead leg side kick please 👍
I love adding Karate techniques into my Muay Thai practice and using them in sparring. My gym is VERY Muay Thai, everyone there basically just does Thai style roundhouse kicks to the thighs and torso, and the occasional teep. Adding in all of these Karate kicks catches people off guard!
I wish i had someone to spar with :(
yeah it always struck me as weird they don't do snap front kicks in muay thai and basically only sticks with the push front kicks. I'm sure it's used sometimes, the lines can often get blurry too
Excelent front kick breakdown!!
Can you do a breakdown of different styles between yours, Raymond Daniels', Michael "Venom" Page's and Conor McGregor's?
Glad you made a channel! You taught my son Bryson years ago and he still follows you. You’re an awesome person Stephen, stay the way your are brother 🤘🤙👊👍
Front kicks have become such an under used technique in combat sports. Thank you for the great video wonderboy. Excellent job
Agreed, it’s like a jab to the body with twice the power and length
Can you do a video on getting through an opponent's guard while sparring, or do you already have a video on that or something similar that I just missed.
One day I’d love to see a breakdown on the combo you used to beat Robert Whitaker it was one of the best things I’ve ever seen
I got introduced like never before. Thanks Sweet T and Steve.
My favorite technique! I love the versatility of the chamber, high mid low, turn it into a snappy round kick or feint to something else. I am not a martial artist but I throw front kicks everyday just for fun!
Yeet finally some of my childhood TKD helps rather than hurts unlike re-learning the roundhouse and leg kicks for Muay Thai
When I started Goju Ryu in the 90s we used to do the Jodan Keri (front straight head kick to the bridge of the nose) with the heel.
The technique was modified a decade later. We now kick with the ball of the foot as it gives range and more success in the event the opponent pulls their head back.
However, as Wonderboy correctly stated the snap is very important to make it a 'hit' and not a 'push'.
We achieve that by setting it up from the hip
As much as I miss Sweet T, this Mr. T guy is pretty awesome too.
1:03 ahahah, had a classical guitar teacher like that. No filter, funny, informative while being savage! You can tell Papa Ridgehand is a great teacher. Super envious of all the stuff you guys learned
I just love the relationship you all have with eachother, it's cool to be strong but love your family and God dearly. I wish I had a close family like that!
I love these. They are super effective and hard to see coming and therefore defend.
PS: it works for the legs too.
I really liked the discussion by Papa Ridgehand about the hips square for more power. In one of the styles I train our stance is more square and one of the reasons we do that is for power.
Love the way Mr. T breaks down the different aspects of a given technique.
WB would love to see you guys do a technique Tuesday of effective punch/kick combos for MMA
Best notification to get is wonderboys uploads.
Nahhh you gotta say this is upstate karate!! Lol loving it WB
3:39 Mr T's heart was broken 😆😆😆
Great as always, WB. You can also aim the front kick to different areas, if attacking the torso. I f you aim for the right side of the torso, you could the liver, and game over! Seen it happen!
Thank you for your sharing of your experience and knowledge
Thank for having me!! Had a great time training for a few days and learned a lot! 🤙🏼
Ty for another great video... I really dig the content 👌
Love the content! Been using a lot of your content in my classes so thank you! I’d love to see some simple sparring drills for my point fighters 😎
This is great stuff. I need to practice this stuff at my gym
Gread video man. Keep it up!
Love the training tips on point with my instructors teaching super entertaining too
I have absolutely no martial arts background. After watching this I feel confident that I can kick someone into the pit of death.
wb vids have helped me so much with techniques. It’s like free online school
Love your work and love to watch u fight.
Love this series. Would love to see more videos on footwork
Thanks for this. It's funny cause I have been practicing the same exact lead in, but for a step-in "side" kick from that karate stance that you use so effectively. Appreciate it.
Awesome Video!
I've started training.this helps .
We love you guys. War Wonderboy!!!
I love your sensei-dad. He’s clearly a lifelong martial artist who loves his art. Oss to him! I’ve also never used the mae geri (front kick) even in traditional point-fighting competitions. Point-fighters generally move so fast and can just cut angles to totally catch opponents off guard. But this and and Lyoto Machida’s chin-snap version inspire me to train more strength and speed.
Mr.T you killed it!
Thankyou sirs!
U gotta love the classic mae geri such great insight here 👍
Excellent ✊🥋!!
I like the respect WB has for his dad, yes sir no sir, it's nice to see
Great point about hip position in a text book or perfect world vs the more likely application with the hips turned a bit!
Big up Sweeeet' T and the legend Stephen thompsons dad Puppa Ridgehand 💪🏻✋🏻🤣 and WB too ! Great vid as ever guys !!! Love from England ❤️🇬🇧💯
I love the front kick or the teep, quite effective either for combat sports or self-defense scenarios as long as your skilled at kicking and it's well-timed and well-placed.
A teep and front snap kick are two different kicks. Both effective, but different usage/purpose.
I saw your comment on Mr Ballens 'true crime' type channel, Wonderboy! Literally 100's of folks were so excited to see your comment on that channel! You are a lot more 'famous' than you realise!
Edit - WB comment has 8.9k likes and 449 replies!
Let’s get it sweetT and Mr.T
My absolute favorite kick to throw outside of my fade-in sidekick 🥋
I wish we could see it more in Ufc. One of my favorites especially after a jab fent
This RUclips channel is amazing
I’d love to see a video on generating power with the rear leg back kick.
Great stuff team wb
God Bless your dad he's a great example of someone who makes men! I know he's not perfect but Golly he sure looks close, I grew up in THe bronx with a sick dad, and was born missing my right hand, survived cancer and now have 2 boys and a girl, about to be 47 If God is willing and was picked on my whole life . But when I see you guys and how you love eachother , makes me happy but kinds sad I never had that. My boys are doing great though in school, one goes to Vanderbuilt on scholarship and got possibly another on the way and my daughter all honor students. My wife is a great preschool teacher, I guess I just wonder what happened to my life, trying to find some reason to push on but I'm so tired. Sorry guys for this, Love and peace.
Dude, Weston keeps good company these days! Congrats
I’d love to see a breakdown of your favorite kick knockouts in MMA and how to do them effectively in different scenarios
Mr T was great once again!
Huge fan of Mr T
I've started trying to teach continuous/full-contact combinations to traditional karate students by disguising it as kata bunkai. So the maegeri -> junzuki -> gyakazuki -> junzuki combo from jion becomes the front kick -> blitz that Machida hit Jon Jones with. It's a fun way to teach and seems to appease students from a variety of backgrounds.
kicks are like spaceman moves . wow thats neat
Technique Tuesday with Sweet T!
Essentially you can use the snap frontkick how you use your side kick when you change to a more square stance to better check leg kicks. Love the lead front kick its a martial artists second jab.
Love a good front kick!
Wonderboy 🔥🔥🔥
Sick stuff, would be great if there's some tips on footwork for angle changing!
It would be so cool training with you guys...nice explanation about the front kick ,thanks...Regards from Norway 🇳🇴
I'm 6'1 and I use the front kick probably the most out of all my techniques. It's so versatile to setup hand combinations when their hands drop
Agreed I'm 6'3 and it's so helpful to make sure wrestler/jujitsu guys stay at range.
Front kicks are great. Specially when u can sneak them just out of sight when partners hands are busy hehe
BEST INTRO EVER!
I wanna see all the leg kick technique you know, I watch some of them like the question mark kick, and you did good breaking it down
Huge fan from Sri Lanka ❤🙌
Sad for no podcast this week 😭 but good video!!
Nice stuff wb
Wonderboy is out there showing some karate to the common folk.
12/10 introduction!
I've been practicing these for a couple weeks, so good timing, cuz I suck
the pendulum step is what you call it in JKD and they do it like this too, except they throw the hips forward like a knee right before impact for a little extra power.
LETSSSSS GOOOO YALL
I’d love to see one about switch kicks.
This is not just a front kick it’s a hopping front kick which is still nice
Legit intro
Was interesting that Mr T wants the hips square with the kick. I would think turning the hip as you deliver would give you a bit more drive. Will try when back in the dojo
Great lesson! This isn't taught properly often enough, every kick can be a pushing kick to push your opponent into other strikes but every kick or knee should have snapping and pushing variations. My Seido Kai Kan instructor use to say, it was a good addition to feints and fakes and the best use of bag work, alternating pushing and snapped kicks to set the bag up for the next strike. Plus, Muay Thai guys hate when you snap kick em in the face 🤪
Maroon shirt on his left has some excellent power.
Wonderboy whats you opinion on Muay Thai RoundHouse kick?
Guys, remember about hip movement, all the power comes from pushing that pelvis to the front while extending the leg.
If you bend to the front, youll just push yourself away. Also no mention of feet placement. You are not doing this with your legs |-- or even worse \--
You are supposed to have this type of angle of the legs /-- so you push him, not yourself.
You do that by mastering the range of the kick, if you are too far, youll fall to the front exposed, if you are too close, youll push yourself away, or fall on your back.
Just a bunch of quick tips to improve quick.
This technique reminds me of the Reyes vs Jiri fight!
We call the footwork technique a slide shuffle. It's the same footwork Rose Namajunas used when she knocked out Weili Zhang: slide shuffle lead round kick- JKD's bread and butter
How about doing that kick with both feet leaving the ground at the same time? To make it faster.
3:50 Wonder man thinking.....never let a boy teach a man move.🤔
Should you drop 1 arm for counter weight? Or both arms up always? More power if i extent counter weight arm backwards? Or it dosnt matter?
Your gym looks *insane*
In a good way.
Great video, if you're soliciting suggestions for topics to cover, I would like to see Wonder Boy teach & demonstrate some effective feints to utilize
Hello Sensei Steve 'Wonder Boy' Thompson and greetings also, to your father Sensei Thompson senior. I recently stumbled upon your awesome RUclips channel, of which I am in awe. Not sure if you might have already covered this, however I was wondering what your advice or tips are, in regards to fighting a much taller opponent, when you are much shorter opponent such as myself.
For example I am 165 cms or 5'5 tall against someone who is 200 cms or 6'8 just about, obviously with an extreme long reach. So my question is how to best get passed their long range punches, especially their jabs, to close the distance, or even successfully bypassing their long range front kicks. Finally how do you get to open up the guard, of someone who protects themselves very well, when trying to punch them in the face. In other words how to trick them, to get them to open up, then successfully land a head or face punch? Greetings from Melbourne, Australia 🇦🇺🇲🇽🥋🦘🐨Osu!
I still believe Wonderboy will be the first UFC fighter to hold 3 belts at the same time! 🥊
I want to meet Wonderboy and Sensei Seth and shake their hands! Oh, and hopefully, get an autograph and picture! These guys are great! True Martial Artists! Do they still do UFC meet and greets?
Wonderboy you are forgetting when you put jorge masvidal on his butt with a front kick! I might be misremembering it for a side kick but he went flying.
Believe it or not Bujinkan Budo Taijutsu has a front kick with the body turned sideways. You strike with the heal, and with training you can get a pretty good bit of power. They call it a side kick, but the foot is upright.
When's the podcast dropping?
