Perfecting the punches, the kicks and the strikes in kickboxing will help you burn calories and learn to defend yourself. If you learn to properly execute combinations, you'll succeed at beating your opponent.

Difficulty: Challenging
Instructions
  1. Step 1

    Assume the fighter's stance. Bring one foot forward, keep one foot in the rear, balance the weight on both feet, tuck in your chin and put your arms in the guard position. Make a vise-grip with your hands and bring your elbows together.

  2. Step 2

    Shift your weight to the front leg and lift the rear leg in the vertical position. Keep the right knee at the side of your body. Pull the hands toward the right side of the body.

  3. Step 3

    Swing the knee into the target, keeping it vertical. Deliver a strike to the legs, the groin, the stomach or the head. Unfold the knee and return the leg to the floor. Resume the fighter's stance.

  4. Step 4

    Raise the left elbow into a horizontal position. Keep your hand close to the shoulder, without tightening the hand muscles, which will make the strike slower. Snap the left shoulder forward with the left elbow leading.

  5. Step 5

    After the elbow hits the target, snap the elbow back. Quickly recoil the arm and return to the fighter's stance.
