Shadow kicking and the pain of it.. - 01/13/06 04:41 AM
Hello MA's
I'm practising TKD for about 1 year now (a little more)
When I'm practising on a heave bag or just spar I don't feel hip pain.
But when I'm doing a side kick to the head or upper torso, most of the time I feel pain in my hips when I only hit air.
Can anyone explain this to my or knows a way to exercise without having this pain?
Please don't say, "don't shadow kick", this is the last option I wan't to consider.
Thanks a ton in advance.
