As a newbie to kickboxing and as a woman I'd have to admit 😂 Im guilty of doing litteraly every single thing you mention hahah I really needed this video.

You are the best

[hinakhodiyara]

Great tips as always. Being a female martial artist and instructor myself, I appreciate your sound tips, which are on point as always. I understand people can be triggered. So appreciate your tips especially. Have a good one..

[LydiaZimmermann-jtzw]

Thank you for such a precise and practical analysis for the females moves 😊

[tara]

Thank you Gabe, female kickboxer from Italy here, truly appreciated the tips and observations. Huge fan, keep up the great work!

[aataxi]

Great video. I've been trying to pick up on some good habits that the women in my kickboxing class have to help my own game. They have really good side to side movement and are really light on their feet, while I tend to get tired and flat footed quickly.

[stahliecalvin]

Just wanted to thank you for taking the time to make this video, even though your viewers are predominantly male. We really do appreciate the tips! 🙏

[justinkennedy]

I'll never lose to a woman again! Thanks for the tips!

The last point is so spot on, I work at a kickboxing cardio gym and a large majority of the female members don’t snap their punches or use the power from the ground up… I always try to get them to “put their body” behind their punches, but they seem to be scared to throw full power.

Thanks for this Gabriel! I learn a lot from all your videos but I appreciate the focus on female fighters now and again.

[martinamanley]

Really appreciated - not much content out there for us female fighters. Great tips🥊

[huwhitecavebeast]

I noticed what you said about low kicks myself. Also women seem to have a harder time turning the hip over. Even Tiffany Van Soest who is a great fighter turns her hip over less than a lot of men. That might because they have wider hips. In general I see them having difficulty with structure, as in their body frame and how they and not good at creating a power structure. Getting that alignment is crucial, if you have it right it takes almost no effort to land devastating shots. Same goes with structure for defense.

[MartaM-peef]

Thank you for that. Makes me understand myslef and my mistakes better. I have heard so many times about my elbows and uppercuts and hooks 😉.

[graceandrickalessi]

Best thing you could do would be to throw in some visuals of actual female fighters making these mistakes or them doing it right. Would add a lot of contacts to your dialogue

[Devoceantattoo]

Lol exactly I have many stiff arm girls. The arm seems stuck. Great tips to help our students get better! ty
