3 Secret Ways to Get Lightning Fast and Powerful Kicks
Print This Article Ezine Publisher Send To Friends Add To Favorites Post A Comment Suggest Topic Report Author

Kicks can be devastating when kicking to an opponent. In just one kick, you can knock a tall muscular well built person down like a brick wall. The only problem with kicks, is that they are slow and easy to see coming. But if you have lightning fast kicks, your kicks will be unseen by your opponent, and they are much more powerful then a normal kick because of the sheer speed of it. To get lightning fast and very powerful kicks, all you need to do is follow these 3 secret ways.

1. Do lots of sit ups!

To get fast kicking speed, you need to strengthen your waist and stomach muscles. When you strengthen your stomach and waist muscles, you increase the turning power of your legs. Also, all kicks start from the waist then to the legs. So if you strengthen the origin of your kicks, your kicks will be flying out very fast from your body!

2. Skipping for 1 hour straight!

To kick fast, you have to move your leg and feet very fast. The only way to keep your feet moving fast all the time is skipping constantly for one hour straight! When you do this, you are building fast twitch muscle fibres in your leg, which fire your muscles very fast giving you lightning fast kicks.

3. Hopping for 1 mile straight on one leg and then another 1 mile on the other

When you kick, you are standing on one leg. Most of the power of kicking comes from the standing leg to twist around so you can kick your leg. So to improve the power of your kicks, you need to improve the strength of your legs on one leg. You do this by hopping for one mile straight one leg and as fast as possible. Then swap and do the other leg for another one mile.
