I said it “can be”. If you use it straight up and down instead of a big curve, it will have different effect from the round house kick.
chinese barehand martial arts are used to train reaction time only, most chinese barehand martial arts was never meant to be effective
it has nothing to do with battlefield
and the opposite is true the roundhouse kick is also called pian ma tui horse killing kick, because the horse leg is very long and thin

ok ill give my 2 cents.
there may be some variation from style to style, but imo the employment of your techniques will be based around your strategy/necessity. The strategy being based upon the environment.
you can take one school of kungfu and see different employment of kicking strategies between self defense training and sanshou training.
an easy example. in a sanshou match you are pretty much garanteed to see a slew of roundhouse kicks. in a self defense scenario…not so much.
same style, same kicks. different choice of kicks to use when and how.

right, so the next question would be.
How fancy does Gung Fu get with their leg work in fighting?.. gonna look up some Dog Style and Tan Toi history:).
**** CMA is always fun, I haven’t really trained in a year but I got that research bug again.
I remember going to the library in 1999 being fascinated by Tan Toi and that Wu Shu Dog Kicking book they had. lol
Anyone have any Anti-Kicking stories and theories for CMA?. I don’t know things like Liu peng kicked so high his chi traveled him to Mars and the villagers were unsettled so no one kicked on tuesdays… idk
we’ve all seen the thai leg breaks on youtube, karateka can break baseball bats with their toes, etcetc.
i’m almost done studying fitness, getting into PT as soon as my rehab is straight… I need some CMA fitness manuals, thinking maybe I should look up Olympic Wu Shu stretching programs, anyone have any links?.
Maybe some Daoist yoga…
Dog Kung Fu, i.e. Góuquán (), is a martial arts style from China. This is a southern style of Chinese boxing that specializes in takedowns and ground fighting. This martial art also teaches Iron Shirt and Iron Palm fighting methods as well as specialized leaping techniques. It is mainly practiced in Fujian Province and was historically often practiced by women who were victims of foot binding, for whom any form of standing physical exertion was difficult. Its creation is traditionally credited to a Buddhist nun who developed the style to defend herself from bandits on her travels."
is it true about the feet binding fighters?.
Advanced TKD e-book…I so hate the cult of kung fu TKD is a government body you can go to the olympics with it you can’t with frank and bob’s dark unicorn fairy kwoon…
how many peeps got injured training with ass-holes?
[QUOTE=Lama Pai Sifu;934004]Chan Tai-San liked to use the “Ridge” or “Ball-of-the-Foot”, roundhouse. I have several forms where that kick makes an appearance, both Lama and CLF.
However, we did Kicking drills where we used MT style round kicks. I remember David Ross and I learning some cool ones in my Mineola school back in 1991.[/QUOTE]
would you please throw that kick into one of your video updates? would be sweet:)
