(12) After kicking, the Hui people's legs take a defensive posture or "fist stakes". The body is slightly inclined to the enemy, with fists shoulder-level, shaped like a bow and arrow, and feet slightly bent. Those who are good at right-clicking are left fist in front, right palm in back, while those who are good at left-clicking are the opposite. The stance of Muay Thai is called "Three Official Steps". The so-called "horse stance just look" is the overall operation of "boxing pile" and footwork. The basic boxing steps are eight-way moving footwork, advancing and retreating along the compass direction and sideways moving footwork. Three steps is because its step type is an oblique triangle, and it is often the basic mode of advancing and retreating along the triangle route when moving. This skill can be said to be the essence of Muay Thai, which can be attacked and retreated and can never be changed. In practice, the three-palace footwork has unique skills to meet the needs of the environment and situation:

Step by step: the step of tiptoeing forward and raising your knees to cover up and down. The movement is light and natural, just like the virtual step.

Cover step: when confusing the opponent with small steps, put down your empty feet, either forward or backward. Might as well turn around and push.

Yi Shi: Using the movement of footsteps to change direction suddenly is a method of moving, which can surprise the enemy and then divert the attack.

The single-hanging book horse style announced in the third edition seems vain, but in fact Muay Thai is exquisite. This style is politically defensible. When the enemy attacks, he can kick the enemy's front foot to stop his attack and hit it with his back leg. This is called "controlling the army". If you take the initiative to attack, you can kick the enemy in the abdomen with your fists or legs. This is called "killing". The more important feature is that when the three palace steps are launched, the spirit and spirit can be combined to enhance faith. Traditional Thai mythology describes Miyamiya step as the skill of shooting the blue devil.

In the past, the Boxer Rebellion attached great importance to the strategic efficacy and artistry of "horse stance just look". There are more advanced boxing steps, such as "tiger step" and "lion step". Bian Songcha, a famous Thai boxing master, said that in a boxing match before Rama VI, a boxer who had time to get home just started boxing. He scared his opponent all over, his eyes panicked and he was defeated before the war. It can be seen that a skilled boxer puts on an impeccable fist pile, moves quickly and shows absolute belief, which is enough to make his opponent's winning heart collapse. According to legend, there were 108 moves in ancient Muay Thai, among which the techniques were all-encompassing, with many ingenious techniques and tricks. The basic moves are called "long soldiers" and "short soldiers". Long soldiers are fist legs, short soldiers are elbows and knees, and there are so-called "fake tricks" and "cheat tricks", which is the application of reality.

The first two types: forward arrival and lateral arrival.

Five boxing methods: direct attack, side attack, return attack, feint attack and upward attack.

Five types of feet: kick, kick, nail, swing back and kick back.

There are six types of elbow: elbow bending, elbow bumping, elbow wiping, elbow pulling, elbow back and elbow back.

Knee six types: basic technical terms related to open knee, hidden knee, raised knee, flying knee, small knee and rabbit knee, and the formula is as follows:

Combine (relatively) (enter), take (hold)

Hide (break) Buddha (dial) cut (enter)

Rush (jump), bump (plunge) and press (press)

Drag (pull) roll (force) hug (winding)

Throw (throw), attack (move) and defend (receive)

Disassemble (solve), avoid (flash) and answer (return)

At that time, there were no taboos in the tricks used by boxers, no matter falling, anti-joint, falling, ground fighting, flying, head touching and hip hitting. And the most unique thing is that poisonous tricks such as poking eyes and flirting are also allowed. The accomplishments of boxers are taught by different teachers and masters, and the actual combat tactics match nouns according to actions or nature, which are classical and elegant and tend to be neat instructions. One can help recite, and the master is the same when they fight, reminding them on the stage that boxing tactics can receive the effect of code words. The other teacher is different, so naturally he doesn't understand its meaning. For example, with elbows, there are "war elephants passing their teeth" or "meteors flying in the clouds". For those who repeatedly use the flying knee, the strategist can call "casting a net to catch birds" to prompt the solution. There are "mother moves" and "child moves" in actual combat. In the 1920s, Jin Cheng, a Chinese-American master, inherited fifteen types of "mother movements" and "child movements", totaling 30 types, including the basic and fancy movements of Muay Thai, which was full of practicality and was highly valued by boxers, and was praised as a model. Now all kinds of mother moves are translated according to the original meaning of the name of Muay Thai. The simple meanings are listed as follows:

Before the heel is lifted (about 4-5 cm), the sole of the foot points to the ground and the toe points to the opponent. Slight knee flexion. The heel of the right foot is slightly lifted, floating on the ground, and the toes are abduction. The distance between the feet is10-15cm, about shoulder width from front to back, and the feet point at a 90-degree angle. The center of gravity of the body is between the feet, and the weight falls evenly on the center of gravity eye on the inside of the forefoot.

Muay Thai takes the initiative to attack the leg

Muay Thai is famous for its footwork. Muay Thai is extremely strict with leg exercises. People are often surprised that the legs of Thai boxers are as hard as iron and as soft as whips. In fact, these martial arts are hard-honed, and there is no secret. The leg method used in Muay Thai focuses on "sweeping kick", "kicking kick" and "side kicking kick", which are the essence that boxers have gained in actual combat. The basic leg method of boxing is the most widely used. The leg training of Muay Thai is mainly caused by four training methods: kicking empty legs, kicking tree trunks (sandbags), moving targets and reverse strokes, which continuously improve physical fitness and technical level.

Fierce flying kick

Kicking empty legs is a compulsory course for leg training, which is meaningful, can cultivate flexibility and balance, and is helpful for putting legs back and forth. When practicing, you must assume that the enemy is on you.

Wait for an opportunity to attack nearby, and prepare your own legs to deal with it.

Kicking the trunk (sandbag)-is the most important exercise to stretch the ability of kicking against collision force and strengthen the strength, speed and hardness of kicking.

Kicking a live target is a modern advanced practice method, which benefits a lot. After such training, boxers are accustomed to pursuing the goal of activities, which is not only closely organized and coordinated, but also special.

Especially for the consistency and accuracy of kicking, it is very helpful.

It is an extremely important exercise to train boxers' skills, skills and intelligence.

In addition, boxers often use weight-bearing squats, long-distance running and skipping rope to enhance leg elasticity and deepen leg hitting power.

The active attack of Muay Thai leg method is often lured by the empty sway of hand movements, while the first leg should be combined with reality, with clear weight and consistency. The attack position of the second leg should be changed.

1, high sweep leg attack

High kick is a very powerful move in Muay Thai. High-legged boxers are good at attacking the enemy's neck, ears, temples and face with high-sweep kicks. If the opponent is not careful, he will be kicked unconscious. This technique has an immediate effect and is a fatal move. Because of the threat of high kicks, boxers are very strict in defending their heads and necks away from home. In application, it needs resourcefulness and tactical skills.

Very deadly.

2, the central sweep kick in the attack.

Women's middle kick is the same as high sweep kick in technical action, both of which are arc parabolic leg strokes, and the leg angle is basically 45 degrees oblique attack, and sometimes the leg stroke angle will change at any time due to the change of actual combat situation. The impact of Thai sweeping kick can reach 350 kg for excellent boxers. Compared with Japanese karate side kick, its overall destructive power is four times stronger than that of Japanese kick, which shows that sweeping kick is the most effective and powerful in long-term actual combat.

The extraordinary power of sweeping and kicking is that the horse automatically twists its waist. When kicking the right leg, it swings violently to the left, making the leg fly out in the trend of waist rotation. Coupled with the momentum generated by the speed increase of the loop, I threw myself on the target and concentrated all my strength on the center of gravity of kicking. The whole action, in one go. The middle sweep kick mainly attacks the enemy's body, waist, back, ribs and stomach and abdomen. The person in the middle of the leg is very painful and has the feeling of rolling five internal organs. The seriously injured immediately vomited blood and fell into a coma. ), the left jab feint, at the same time, the left foot sweeps and kicks the opponent's ribs and waist, and when the left foot hits the ground, the right foot kicks the opponent's abdomen and thigh roots.

Kicking method of muay Thai

Muay Thai is famous for kicking, so it is called "Thai foot". However, boxers exercise leg skills very strictly, and the application and changes of leg techniques are extremely great. This is also a significant difference between Muay Thai and other martial arts. Muay Thai teachers reuse the leg technique for a simple reason. Because the legs are longer than the hands and the strength is fierce, after long-term training, they become the best weapons. Therefore, a boxer with good legs should not only have strong feet like iron, but also be as flexible as hands, which is also a prerequisite for becoming a master of Muay Thai. People who watch boxing matches in Thailand often marvel that Thai boxers' legs are as hard as iron and as soft as whips. In fact, this kind of martial arts is hard-honed, and there is no secret. In the past, in Thailand, boxers often met in the countryside or in the countryside, taking banana trees as the goal of practicing leg skills and kicking around the trunk. Now the practice method of Muay Thai has become scientific, so he puts his legs in sandbags and practices kicking according to the rules every day.

The principle and basic tactics of Muay Thai leg method are to use the front foot to display "kicking skills" to distract the enemy as a prelude to launching an attack, while the rear leg is kicked along an arc and swept to the enemy's key. Therefore, the tried-and-tested "sweeping legs" and "kicking legs" have become the basic leg techniques of Muay Thai and are widely used. Kicking tactics can be divided into three sections according to the height of the target. High kick all the way to attack the enemy's neck, ears, temples and face. If you hit any part, you will faint and even die on the spot. This is the deadliest move. The middle kick attacks the waist, back, ribs and stomach and abdomen. The pain in the middle leg is severe, and I feel the five internal organs rolling. The seriously injured person vomited blood and fainted on the spot. Kick the enemy's footwall low, interrupt his horse's pace and stop moving forward. People with insufficient leg resistance will fall to the ground and lose their fighting capacity.

Kicking is usually used to "tease" or "test" the enemy's reality in combat. Generally, the attack power is not great, but if you kick it repeatedly, you will lose your endurance and fighting spirit. There is also a fierce kicking method, that is, kicking the enemy's chest and abdomen with all one's strength, and the winner will either fly out or fall down.

Maotui sweeping kick, called "flute" in Thai, is an arc parabolic leg style with a small leg angle, which is basically a 45-degree oblique attack. The actual combat situation is changeable, so it is necessary to change the angle of the leg according to the situation, such as horizontal chopping or even hitting from high to low, in order to achieve the best effect. The contact part is the thick bone from the self-supporting back to gaskin, commonly known as hairy embryo. Don't use toes, because toes are fragile and easy to get hurt by violent contact.

There are many key points in the leg technique of Muay Thai, and its science and technology is the essence of the boxer's hard training in the ring. It involves machinery, skill and originality. In the modern history of Muay Thai, there are three famous people who are famous for kicking: First, the "Ghost Tiger" Chai in the 1950s is famous for its accurate and flexible moves; Later, there was a "fire-footed fairy" who guessed Cang, recruited males with his legs and fiercely defeated the enemy; Apidej Sit-hirun, the "Whirlwind Leg" in 1960s, dominated the boxing world with his unparalleled leg skills. Among the light fighters, Pi Bolian, the "student idol" in the 1970s, was named "golden leg" because his legs locked by chains were like mechanical springs. Suriye, the "prodigal son of Northeast China" in the 1940s, weighed only 1 10 Jin, but his double-deck kicking method was fantastic.

Taekwondo in Muay Thai emphasizes "strength". Boxers concentrate all their strength on one point, kick with their legs, increase their power with the help of loop balls, hit the target and release an "explosive force", which is the power of taekwondo. Every movement of Thai leg has a mechanical basis. In various environments, kicking methods are changing, among which there are many styles, which are difficult to fully explain. Japanese martial arts circles have measured the kicking power of Muay Thai with scientific methods, which proves that the impact generated by sweeping the legs is five times stronger than the maximum power of general boxing. Thai leg sweeping, if compared with Japanese karate side kick, side kick is stronger in a single way, but overall comparison, that is, comprehensive attack time, frequency and overall destructive power calculation, Thai leg is three or six times stronger than Japanese kick. It is enough to prove that this leg method is the most effective and powerful leg method in long-term actual combat. The greatness of Thai leg lies in its persistent aggressiveness. When you fail to kick down the enemy with one move, you can also weaken his strength continuously. When an opponent's body and limbs are violently attacked and kicked, his muscles will swell and ache, and his physical strength will gradually run out and he will lose his combat effectiveness.

In Thailand, you can often see boxers being beaten out of the water, red and swollen all over, and even groaning badly. This is the power of kicking. Thai people often use "fire" to describe the viciousness of legs, which makes sense. Apidej Sit-hirun, a modern Thai boxing champion, once sent out 80 legs and kicked leather sandbags in practice. In the boxing ring, he is braver. He once kicked the left arm of the famous boxer Song Peng with his formidable left leg. Basically, if the leg stroke is to be strong, it must have a solid foundation and accurate time. When kicking, you should concentrate your strength on the kicked leg, and try your best to kick it without retaining it, so that the leg can be strong. Pay attention to the situation, position and angle at the same time. Most importantly, don't forget to defend yourself when you send your legs. If you are not careful, you will easily be counted by the enemy's fist. Kicking training in Muay Thai is mainly realized by four methods: (1) empty legs; (2) sandbags; (3) live target; (4) the right move.

Kicking empty legs is a compulsory course in leg training, which can cultivate flexibility and balance, help to lift legs high and put them down, and should be practiced frequently. Empty legs are of great significance, and they are strenuous exercise. In practice, you imagine the enemy jumping in front of you, waiting for an opportunity to attack, but you also use various leg methods. Because there is no physical unloading, it is necessary to grasp the key strength in practice, suddenly release the secret of strength when kicking, and quickly adjust the balance of the center of gravity to achieve the situation of receiving and sending freely. The so-called skills of sending and receiving freely include continuous kicking, that is, kicking with one leg, suddenly changing direction in the air and continuing to attack the enemy before taking it back. In actual combat, this ingenious leg technique is elusive and elusive.

Kicking sandbags is the most important exercise, which can prolong the ability of kicking against impact and strengthen the strength, speed and hardness of kicking.

Living target is a modern advanced practice method, which is of great benefit. After this training, boxers are used to chasing targets, which not only improves the organization and coordination of movements, but also improves the consistency and accuracy of kicking.

It is also important to cultivate boxers' skills, application methods and intelligence.

In addition, boxers often run and jump rope to enhance leg flexibility and encourage leg recruitment skills.
