Lol... Hug is a meme around here.

Repeated blows to the head can't be good for you either. But brain damage is OK.
Here are some guys who train "getting kicked in the stones".
I wonder if they would let Bad Ruttan pressure test this?
Here's the video
Here, I agree with you. The entire point of chambering a kick is to generate power. Yes, it can be slower, and sometimes easier to read… but I don't agree with K-man that it "robs you of power".
Kingeri = groin kick, why practice something else when a groin kick is available. I don't understand why the need to complicate things. use a bloody groin kick when wanting to kick the groin and come to that why are we being coy? if you want to kick them in the nuts do so.
Because you can't train it live. Which means you might land the groin kick but eat a right cross in the process. Where you train the inner leg they can also train knocking your head off if you get the timing wrong.
Sigh… yes, you can "train it live"…. and not eating a punch when kicking to the inner thigh (which is closer than the groin) doesn't mean a damn thing… you're already further out of range with the thigh kick…
Your first clip is a kick that missed, and would never be chosen deliberately as a "groin kick"… but we've covered all of that before. The second is… look, I don't even know why you put it up. It's a poor example of, well, pretty much everything. It's not a drill… it's not a targeting exercise… it's not a technical demonstration… it's not really anything other than a blonde girl doing something ineffective on many levels. If it's there for you to demonstrate "not training live", well… it's not meant to be. Which, frankly, invalidates that as a criticism.
Yeah… you need to get out more… there are plenty of ways to "train live"…
As far as the other kick being "more effective and better executed"… no. It's really not. It's poorly thrown, misses it's target, takes too long to take effect, and, well, would be so far below reliable as being effective outside of a competitive environment. So, no.
I have utilized Predator body armour to allow full on, groin kicks with movement. That is just one way to practice them live.
= cod's wallopKingeri = groin kick,
One way is with non-contact sparring, even though you are not giving someone chestnuts you still have to defend against it.What would be those plenty of ways to train live?
