BALANCE EXERCISES FOR KICKING!! (TAEKWONDO/MMA/KARATE)
thank for the tips sir i can use them im going for my blackbelt in december at age 67
"I'm very extra today, I don't know what's up with me" WHAT ABOUT THEM 4 CUPS OF COFFEE BRO xD
I have been training kicks for a few years, this guys balance, flexibility and foot control is top notch. I see quite a few comments saying there is no power, this video is about balance and foot control. I even see some comments saying this is fake lol?? People who are talking all that jazz are clearly haters and know nothing about kicking. If you want to been an elite kicker, balance, foot control, flexibility and technique are key components.
Lol this is a balance exercise not a power display. The whole POINT Is to go slow lol.
The sad part of it all is how so many negative people forgot that he made this video, which helps plenty of us...and he did it on his time for free. Some of you clowns appear to be jealous of his skills--he clearly is a superb athlete. Lighten up, learn something from Barrett... or simply take your foolish ways down the block.
Sensei Owens Realtalk 👌 those fatass gamer keyboard warriors are jealous because they can't kick higher
Too many keyboard warriors.
Believe me, at 51 yrs old, you are never too young to learn
Here, here.
Ughh i hate gay people
Those kicks he did at the beginning were insane.
Your channel is the hidden jewel of you tube. Thank you
well youtubers, its been about 6 months since i found Mr Barrett's videos. now i can side kick over my head and hold a nice snapshot in my poomse. my fav is the leg excersize video with the funions LOL. these drills work if you do them. thank you Mr Barrett
OMG THANK YOU FOR THIS COMMENT! It's so great to know that these videos are helping people achieve their goals. Stay grinding and thanks so much for the love and support!
Wow I'm amazed at his hip control and leg dexterity. I guess I'll start following his training advise!
Fantastic balance and kicks, I'm going to try these exercises in my training, thank you.
Don't lie everyone needed this bro
Amazing physical control!
Damn regardless of everything, this guy has great technique and skills. Mad respect bro.
no matter what you may think of this guy, he's got MAD SKILLZ big props to you dude I will be practicing your technique
Thank you so very much! This put a big smile on my face. :)
Wow your videos are amazing and inspiring me to do spilts but I don't know where to begin
I spent many years trying to build good kicks but could never get knee height like that which of course, you need for a good high kick. I still love to see a side or round kick in controlled execution like that. A great kicker has an advantage since not many people expect to be kicked in the head especially at close distance. Awesome demo and keep up the training.
Hey D I really appreciate you sharing your knowledge,I am BB in Tae kwon Do,been training years,Thank you for helping me get back in shape.
As corny as this sounds, it's really my pleasure. Seeing that I've had even the smallest influence in your life means more to me than you could ever know! Thank you :)
😇👍👍👍👍
Amazing 👍👍👍👍 Thank you somuch Donavan Barrett🙏😊🤗
Donavan i need to ask a question, is it normal to feel a little pressure on the inner knee while doing the stretch where you open both legs and reach down the middle?
Absolutely awesome!
Thanks!
Good stuff Donavan - so funny about the coffee and feeling extra - LOL
Great precision with these moves. That's definitely not easy
Yes u r right..
LOL I know the feeling of having too much coffee before filming videos!
It's the best/worst feeling ever! xD
Alex Wong Finally! Im the first like on a famous youtuber's comment!
@@mistergarf how can i trust u
Lol the coffee part, hilarious dude. Great video man and fantastic flexibility
You really are great at what you do keep it up master ✊
thanks for the video keep up the good work.
Looks challenging but very helpful thanks.
Great video, thank you for sharing.
Yay!!!!!! You also do 4 cups of jo! I was actually wondering if I should comment on your 50 kicks video about your gorgeous balance! It literally looks as though you have a background of break dancing and ballet side hobbies but really are pro level at those! When I saw your 50 kicks video I instinctively thought that you would be an extraordinary dance partner! Even if for mostly only hip-hop and modern interpretive! 💕🧸💕🧸💕
Your kicks are awesome mate well done 👍👍🙏
Hey bro ..do you have pain in lombar zone when you hold the kick ?
Great vid!
Much respect!!
Yo Don good work , I'm trying to get splits down in my vids... When doing splits should I point toes forward or up or doesn't matter? I just uploaded split vid for example let me know what you think
Wowww..M.so happy that your vedio has lott of views..you are doing a great job...keep up..always spiritfull and refreshing..
Dont ever change you amazing. You made me laugh with your 4 cups of coffee and your kicks are awesome.
Awww thank you so much! Your comment means so much and I really appreciate the support! :)
Omg I love you 😂 the intro was mad cute
Great vid, BUT........... how do you develop the muscle strength to pull the leg upwards first ? thanks
Damn I feel very amazing that I'm able to do a tornado kick but when I see you I feel down lmao 👌😂😂
Keep the good work
I had to watch this a second time. For some reason I was too distracted to pay attention 😂
Some really helpful tips, great vid mate!
So happy you were able to find it beneficial! That's all that matters to me 😊
Martial Lee - Freestyle Fighting nice to see

Damn he’s flexible, really am just chasing it now, he’s very good, helpful.
Thanks so much! Glad the video can help 😊
you make it look so easy
Hi. This will be a long one, and I apologize for some anatomy talk.
When you do a high side kick, you're essentially entering a side split position, right? Because of their anatomy, some people need to do an anterior pelvic tilt (they stick their butt out and arch their low back) to get into a side split position. This position works if their hips are internally rotated. Do you also do the same to get a high side split?
I noticed your butt is out and your low back is arched, but I don't know if it's just your habit or if you consciously do it for thr technique
Thanks Donovan! I appreciate your reply, by the way im from the philippines, my name is Greg.
Bless those 4 cups of magic
your videos make me happy
That's very kind of you to say. People commenting and talking to me make me happy!
Where do you train?
Brother very smart physical fitness. Please tell me in what age groups can start this practice. Do you have any contacts in india for training. Kindly share.
so young to get 4th Dan.... but your kicks are accurate and overall very good demonstration...... keep it up........ your kicks look perfect......
Haha thank you so much!
Dude, your kicks are awesome!!
Haha thanks a lot!
Solid advice!
Thank you for the tips!
Of course! Thanks for watching :)
i can't reach my foot like that, can you teach me exercise for reaching higher?
Hi sir, apart from praticing martial arts, do you use weights or any other methods of training for your lower body? Your butt and thighs are amazing
Thanks man
You are very good those kicks wer flawless I never heard about your technique but I wish someone would told about it 100000👍
Haha thank you so much
Thanks Donovan!
Of course! Thank you so much for watching!
Nice..! Thank you for sharing.
Thank you for watching! :)
Can you do combo kicks from beginner to advanced
That's a good idea! I'll add that to my list of videos to do. Thanks so much for watching and leaving the kind suggestion!
Donavan Barrett np
thank you.. I will try those techniques 😉
Hope they help! Thanks for watching :)
listen,
how do you reach that type of flexibility?
amazing kick
I LOVE how extra you are in this video lol #sorelatable
You're a phenomenal athlete man you really are
That means the world. Thanks so much! ✌🏽
@@donavantkd You're welcome!
Hey Donovan. Nice video as always. Was just wondering did you ever do gymnastics? What do you think of it? I'm looking into taking a class because I don't feel I'm making much progress by myself.
I've never done gymnastics but if it's something you're passionate about I definitely think you should take classes! You can learn a lot on your own these days but there's still something to be said for having a teacher there that can actually critique you. I've learned so much of my skills on my own but things would've gone so much faster if I had someone to tell me exactly how to do things and fix my errors rather than me having to figure them out for myself!
Great video!! Love to see more kicking videos :)
As in tutorials? or videos of me kicking? haha. Thanks so much for watching!
Your skills are amazing.
I received your notification, UA-cam is ok .
Best regards from the distant South América ;-)
Mario.
Thanks so much as always!

Thank you! :)
Nice... Really... I'm done with that kicks... Lost my knee especially the meniscus... Sad... It's a beautiful sport...

Excellent

Thanks bro
Good balance man, i would keep those hands up and chin down.
Very helpful
nice one.how to practice?
Very good
Ok the coffee bit made me laugh out loud
great video.....and very funny too
Haha glad you enjoyed it! :)
some people have the flexibility to kick their legs high or even kick it high on their back like a scorpion tail. one who can do this flexibility in kicking could be really an athlete; but what about those who do not have such flexibility but can kick so hard and strong but the kick is just hip high?
i have never did martial arts except what my father taught me and i can jump on a tight rope i mean literally i can hold my leg in the air really high will until i feel like it
how do you keep your leg up that high? Btw I love your technique, keep up the great work!
Lot's of stretching and conditioning of my glutes, legs, and core! I have lots of tutorials on my channel and will be uploading more soon!
Thank you! Many of us are new and cannot even bring our legs up halfway. I am so excited for your channel and to be learning from you!
Sir do you think its necessary to do full split to master all the kicks in taekwondo or i just practice good balancing when I'm kicking? I'm still confused😅
Well...try not to look at it as a "requirement". Do you HAVE to have splits to do a decent kick? The answer is no. But it's an opportunity... If you have splits, your kicks will be stronger, faster, easier, and more powerful...so why not go after them? Hope this helps! Keep training hard!
Beautifull
Isso é que são glúteos ein...👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👍🏻
Thank you
This is an interesting video.
You dnt knw it yet but ur about to become my hero.
YAY! Haha thanks so much! :)
I subscribed thanks for the tips
I appreciate the support!
This video was great .... but.... I wish you mentioned how it would feel if you were balancing correctly. Or maybe explain why people fall back or forward. But still great video
