that’s exactly what i was gonna ask because i’ve been starting to get more knots on my hamstrings when i’m kicking so is there any specific leg stretches we can do to avoid these problems?
Great video, thank you. Yearssss ago I kicked Div 3, now helping HS kids. What's your take on how kicking foot should be AT impact? Toe all the way down? Somewhat down? I ask bc it looks like some D1 kickers are kicking w toe up????
No your hip should not be hurting. Make sure you are not over kicking. I never kick more than 60 balls in one session because you are risking injury if you over kick. Also make sure to warm up good before kicking and stretch good after kicking. Lastly, make sure you are strengthening your hip flexors.
Just make sure you warm up really good before kicking and stretch after. Also make sure you are not kicking too many footballs in one session. I never kick more than 60 balls but normally I only kick 40 max. Also check out my stretching video on my channel
@@cadennovikoff okay thanks I’ll try that! I have also noticed that It tends to be my head that initiates the crunch because I’m trying to look at the ball. Is their any advice their?
If you are too close or you don’t give yourself enough room to swing then you will automatically bend your leg. Also work on drills like no step or one step and just focus on locking out at contact

I’m working with 10 year old to kick off. He also golfs. Seems to help to compare the leg swing to swinging a golf club.
Kicking the panel and approaching 2 the left of the ball work in harmony!

so i’ve been kicking for about 7 months and i’m getting pretty good but i’ve noticed my hip always hurts. does this happen to you?
No your hip should not be hurting. Make sure you are not over kicking. I never kick more than 60 balls in one session because you are risking injury if you over kick.

@@cadennovikoff i will try to make sure of this. thank you!!!
@@kyler257 also make sure you aren't swinging with straight groin snap your hips at impact
Is this the place where Jason Myers had his kicker workout?
Where do u make contact on your foot to hit the ball
Do you have tips with stretching because my knee has been bothering me ever since I’ve started to kick more repetitively
Just make sure you warm up really good before kicking and stretch after. Also make sure you are not kicking too many footballs in one session. I never kick more than 60 balls but normally I only kick 40 max. Also check out my stretching video on my channel
@@cadennovikoff okay thank you!
How do you get more distance on punts
Dropping it higher results in higher punts which tends to make it go farther
I’m a kicker with a really bad habit of crunching down before the kick, how do I fix this?
Try to stay tall from the start. So like after you take your steps and you are in your stance, push your chest out and start tall.
@@cadennovikoff okay thanks I’ll try that! I have also noticed that It tends to be my head that initiates the crunch because I’m trying to look at the ball. Is their any advice their?
It’s just a mental thing. Really focus on keeping your head still.
Unfortunately they won't let us use blocks on field goals in college and NFL.
Hey I was wondering if you had any tips on making sure your leg is locked at contact I really struggle with that
If you are too close or you don’t give yourself enough room to swing then you will automatically bend your leg. Also work on drills like no step or one step and just focus on locking out at contact
