Which is the strongest kick in Tae Kwon Do?

Answer 1

Practice, practice and more practice! Speed comes from building muscle and learning the correct techniques. Listen to what the instructor is saying to you and try to match their movements. It is critical that you get the basics down first, before worrying about speed or power; but once you have, other small things/motions that improve speed will become more obvious to you. It can also be helpful to practice your kicks (with many repetitions) wearing ankle weights. After trying that for a few months, your legs will feel feather light with them off. You have to do more than train technique, you have to train the muscles. It also doesn't hurt to go to the gym; for front kicks, you can do leg extensions to build up the muscle. But remember that as you build muscle mass, you have to focus even harder on your flexibility, so that you don't loose it.

Speed of kicking is all down to relaxation and breathing control. The more relaxed you are and if you breath using your abdomen the faster you will kick.

A good way to improve speed is to do a repeat kick. A repeat kick is when you do a second kick after doing the first kick without setting the foot down. Also the real name for a repeat kick is repeat then the name of the kick (i.e. repeat round kick).

They build speed by doing sets of speed kicks on a target. They do 1000 speed kicks 3 times a day!

And I agree with the authors above. Relaxation, practice and good technique are the key.

Answer 2

The strongest kick in Tae Kwon Do is generally considered to be the back kick (dwi chagi). It is a powerful and fast kick that generates a lot of force by using the momentum of the body and rotation of the hips. The back kick is commonly used in sparring and self-defense situations due to its effectiveness in generating power and speed.

Answer 3

The back kick is the strongest kick in Taekwondo. It is very useful in breaking; however, for sparring, head kicks are more effective for knockouts, even if they are technically less powerful.
