How do I stop getting hurt while kicking?
No matter whether it’s teeps, middle kicks, low kicks, or high kicks, I keep getting injured. I mean, my shins and feet aren’t made of playdoh but whenever I try to teep I hurt my toes badly. Whenever I try a middle kick, my shin/calf gets crushed between the opponent’s knee and elbow if he’s blocking. Whenever I high kick, I hit my opponent’s elbows and it hurts really badly. And whenever I low kick inside, or the outside of the back leg, if my opponent moves even an inch I mess up and hit with my foot, which hurts really bad. What am I doing wrong? It makes me hesitate to throw what would have probably been a good shot. How can I prevent such injuries from happening?
