The Back Hook Kick

Again today, I am still crippled up and as a result, I perform this, the Back Hook Kick while looking away. In other words, I see my target, then I turn away and drive the bottom of my heel back into my opponent.

This is a dangerous maneuver that I use because I take my eyes off my target at kicking range. I do this today because I am unable to turn fully a see while executing this kick. Even at the best of times, this is a dangerous maneuver because now I am at punching range with my back to my opponent.

I am successful while kicking because I practice this kick often and correctly at various speeds.

Some days I can turn enough to see my opponent. This is how I do it when I cannot turn that far.

The first video is a basic demonstration of how this kick is executed and how close I am.

The next two videos show how I perform these kicks during practice.
