In this video Nick Drossos is with Thai kickboxing trainer Vaggelis Troulis from Spiral Fitness. And teaching the most effective kicks to use in a street fight. Keep your kicks below the waste and as less telegraphic as possible.
come on man nearly everyone knows about those because everyone teaches that.Can you plz make a vedio on unpredictable and unique attacks like suker or some bone breaking or dislocation techniques
Nick, not sure if Veggelis is training with you…but if he is, you might want to suggest to him that he bend his knees slightly when he stands. I notice his default is to stand with his knees locked and his pelvis slightly forward. This is OK when you're young but over time it's bad for the knees and low back. The knees are the shock absorbers of the body and when they're locked the lower back must do double duty and the back is not a very good shock absorber. Also, when the legs are locked they need to bend first in order to issue power. If the default is straight, the time it takes to bend them and then fire is wasted and someone who knows what they're doing can take advantage of that. But the health risks to the knees and the low back are the main reason to not hyper-extend the knees.
Nick's kicks are sound but his mate Vaggelis is showing some really dubious Thai sports push kicks… they are good right upto the point he grabs your leg.. then you are probably falling to the concrete. Kick low, kick fast.. train the balance.
Hey, Nick! I just wanted to inform you that your last few videos have really helped me. From learning how to defend my sister and me to how to get notified of your videos. Thanks a lot and I will keep watching since you make great content. Keep up the good work!

great kicks, the first one to the knee is called chasse bass in savate ( french kickboxing), great for the streets.
did you learn shiru martial arts???
Nick I always like the stepping side kick, it's easy to use but powerful.
Guess its time to kickback! Great vid Nick. Thanks.
Nick, i definitely like your approach to kicks. Thanks!

Christ , those legs are murder machines.
nick degrossi is a jew sympathizer.
Stomp kicks are great, if there's a chance you can even rake the edge of your shoe down their shin and stand on their foot reducing their mobility
That guy doesnt skip leg day!
this channel should have way more subscribers. … this guy is giving up some serious life lessons
What about a kick just above the foot? Does it work?
I'm back and another great video as always ☺
Hey Nick, how about a video on how to use a karambit for self defense.
