Please reply me if you can
thank you. what a superb pointer.
Thanks tj 💪
I remember my friend who does Muay Thai leg kicked me for the first time... I couldn't walk properly for a day lmao.
haha people take the damage done by leg kicks lightly until they get hit by a good one 😂
@@TjDillashaw1 exactly i hope there is some advice on leg conditioning cause hot damn when someone with Heavy legs and sharp kicks lands on you it hurts hahaha
@@TjDillashaw1 Theres a build up for me checking em and then that one that does me in. Depending on who Im training with that moment comes sooner than others sometimes.
@@erikbritz8095 Stay light on your feet, when you have all your weight on your front foot you are looking to get chopped up!
@@TjDillashaw1 Thank you Tj i appreciate the knowledge you are sharing here and in the videos.
I absolutely love throwing leg kicks, it really helps in a lot of ways, f.e. by putting your opponent flat on their feet. Important thing about them to remember is that it's not the one kick that does it; inflicting damage over time is what does the trick. Great video Champ!
Exactly ⚡️
@@TjDillashaw1 champ always 🏆
I used to pitch in college and now learning mma this video helped a lot and it’s a lot like pitching with the hip rotations to generate power. Thanks for the vid man
While sparing with friend who is also new to muay thai i was totally dismantling him by just keeping my hand as if throwing straight while kicking , I remember you always doing it in UFC.
Awesome TJ!Thanks! very timely Video!
This position is the absolute one for an affective leg kick which alows you to protect your self against any counter punches toward your face !!!!!!!!! This is alegit one champ !! Thank U very Much Tj !!!!!!!!!!!
Simple he is the goat ......... the real fuckin ninja

Thanks man😃
Can't wait to see you back in that octagon putting those kicks to work TJ!
👊
Good stuff
Nice explained, plus the bonus on the spot to hit, i've practiced thay and kick and they never thought that to us, i always hitted the middle part of the leg
Glad I could help man!
@@TjDillashaw1 I noticed how ur head alines with ur pivoting foot when u kick and u don't lean back,do u have to lean back to avoid counters or is footwork and positioning enough?
Can you post a video on setting up double right hand and using feints far as footwork and hands
Yes TJ you are the real Champ! Can’t wait to see you back!
hearnn ehhh
Thanks bro
My favourite Hiroki Akimoto style Leg kick

I'm new to this, and I appreciate the instruction... I'm just wondering though, you've said to kick like you're chopping down, but in your execution of the kicks, it looks like you're going sideways??? Also... you talk about "kicking above the just above the knee to end the fight," but I saw a response to a comment about it not being about one kick, but repeated kicks, so I'm wondering how effective the kick above the knee really is to actually end a fight?
Great content man. Can you do some boxing drills for creating angles. Or something you picked up from sparring Lomachenko. Can't wait to see you back in the octagon
Thanks, man. You should check out the advanced footwork for striking drill I posted a few weeks to start! kzhead.info/sun/d8Wnp5F9cHSvg30/bejne.html
@@TjDillashaw1 The scissor trip you taught us worked perfectly on a person my size,but I find it a bit more difficult with bigger people.Are their any adjustments to make this work against a larger opponent.Thanks for the great content
TJ love from India❤️
WE HAVEN'T FORGOT ABOUT YOU CHAMP
Hi TJ! Big fan! What are some moves I can use on Target employees when I get caught stealing V-necks?
Hey TJ, love your content man and the fact that you're staying busy and sharing your knowledge. Do you have any advice to increase hip rotation and mobility? I find i get a bit sore in my hips after training kicks for a session
Plenty of hip mobility exercises and stretches out there. Proper Functional training should help out with your hip mobility!
@@TjDillashaw1 legend! Thanks man
TJ I hope you see this comment man! since I was a little boy about 12 years old, I remember watching your entrance against barao, and I told myself “This guy TJ looks like he’s going to be a champion “. Without knowing it was actually your tittle fight man! Since then you have been my favorite fighter, and still are! Thank you for these videos you’re an inspiration to me!
Thanks for sharing man, I appreciate your support 🥊
When they cut to side angel turn off the camera mic. Two audio mics sound funky.
Tj, let's go p4p number 1
TJ ✊💪💪💪
Could you make a video for fighting taller opponents ?
Hey TJ how do you kick down on an opponents leg that is taller than you? Would it be okay to kick straight into their leg in this scenario. I feel like trying to kick at a downward angle, when there is a big discrepancy in height would make your kick a bit slower.
I'll be waiting for you.
I'll be back 😎
can u make a video on low kicks while on open stance...?
Hello from Kazakhstan,T.J)
We miss ya TJ
It takes practice to kick and do the stiff arm thing at the same time. I used to lose my balance but it is great to avoid counter punches
It all takes practice, keep at it 💪
What are some combos with this
TJ is myau thai champ-champ
Show 💪
Lets go champ! I can't wait to see you inside the octagon again. #Killashaw
Anyone have a tip on something to practice on if u don't have a sparring partner or a bag
Great work TJ! Smile and be more playful in the videos brother though, you'll get more views.
I respectfully disagree. Just keep it real
Here's a GREAT video on how to throw the leg kick and avoid getting knocked out in the process kzhead.info/sun/nbqtZpacpYd6iJE/bejne.html
So I just started muay thai, and I overestimated my body conditioning...after five straight low stick kicks, I still have yet to fully recover and take hits again. How do you go about recovery, especially when you first started practicing?
Great question, good chance this will make into future MMA Q&A's!
So how do you block it 🤔
Didn’t know snakes had legs to kick
Tj noticed your southpaw stance is so good can do a video on how to beat orfidox fighters with southpaw
This and how Tj deals with larger orthodox fighters in Southpaw curious cause as i am boxing now i have a very different gameplan then what i would use in MMA.
Go outside. The only advantage of being SP is that your opponent is likely not use to facing em, but if you face an opponent use to em then youre outta luck as they xan use the same tactics on you. Watch Manny P fights. Mainly fight going outside
Hello TJ жду твоего возвращения , лайк из🇧🇾
I've got no problem with throwing the kick, it's my retraction that really sucks. For some reason, it's tougher for me to twist my body back to stance.
Drill drill drill!
@@TjDillashaw1 will do, sir! Loving the content so far btw. No bs and easy to understand. Keep em coming. 👍

Always wondered why didn´t Jose Aldo just slay McGregor legs with his vicious Thai kicks instead of going in a straight line against him, wild swinging and exposing his chin. Proper leg kicks are no joke. Bro I´m training my leg kicks the way you say, blinding my opponent with my rear hand, it´s better that way, thanks my man.
@IVEY 96 Yeah XD, they didn`t prepare him psychologically in order to be inmune to McGregor`s mental warfare… It`s like the dumb coaches told Jose, "AWW GO FOR THE kILL" instead of being pragmatic and design a good gameplan to beat McGregor. I`ve had this discussion with some buddies and some of them say Aldo didn`t throw a kick as he was afraid of a takedown, which is dumb, cause McGregor is not a grappler, I think Conor got too much into Aldo`s head that he made him forget he is a Muay Thai fighter, instead he fought like a drunk idiot and got koed. If he used his thai leg kicks he would have done definitely better against Conor.
It's really weird that he has stopped throwing leg kicks considering it was one of his best weapons. He probably has an injured hip from so many years of competition.
What's interesting is that McGreor never got leg kicked a lot. Apparently it's not an obvious option against a guy with a weird stance and very good distance management.
@@trusy_navalnova Perhaps that´s the reason, but in the McGregor fight, he was just too emotional, that´s why his fight IQ got lower and fought like an idiot. I still wonder what was Aldo´s camp gameplan against Conor. Cause, for example, in Masvidal vs Askren fight, one can tell Askren was going for a takedown, Masvidal capitalized that and BWALA!!! The flying knee KO XD.
@@honigdachs. Yeah, it´s like the "Conor Effect" lowers his opponents fighting IQ, LMAO, for real, you just can´t trade hands with Conor, UNLESS, you´ve got a zombie chin like Nate Diaz or you´re just a psychopathic "superhuman" trained killer like Khabib, rest of Conor´s opponents just try to go toe to toe with him and end up fucked up, I thought Cowboy was gonna chop Conor legs, but nope…just another guy who forgot his Muay Thai (Or kickboxing) arsenal. A dream striking match for me would be Buakaw Banchamek vs Conor McGregor.
Come back man
The suspension doesn't end until 2021.
Is it deliberate that there's little hip rotation, ie, body torque behind the kick? 99% of MMA fighters just seem to slap the leg out there.
Not turning your hips over (dutch style) does limit your power but it can be quicker and allows you to regain your stance, good for combinations. Here's a video by FightTips on variations of the low kick: kzhead.info/sun/hKeSesp-hoV5n6c/bejne.html
But TJ's footwork is so sophisticated that he manages to land thai-style leg kicks with the same benefits.
@@trusy_navalnova Sure, it "can" be quicker, assuming that's what you're going for. But I'm not sure most MMA fighters have that in mind. Mostly, it seems to be poor form.
