The Standard Inside Axe Kick is executed by swinging the kicking leg upward along the body's centreline, passing inside the opponent's guard, and then driving the heel straight down onto the opponent's collarbone, shoulder, or head. [1] The kicker uses hip flexion and adductor engagement to lift the leg along the medial path before gravity and active hip extension accelerate the downward strike. [1],[2] This variant is commonly used in taekwondo sparring as a scoring technique targeting the head. [2],[3]

Биомеханический механизм
Primary Action — Ballistic leg extension or rotation — the shin or foot impacts the target at high velocity
Joints Involved — Hip (flexion/rotation), knee (extension for front kicks, flexion-extension for roundhouse), ankle (stabilised)
Force Vector — Linear (front kick/teep — hip flexion and knee extension) or rotational (roundhouse — hip rotation with shin contact)
Kinetic Chain — Pivot foot rotation → hip turn → femur whip → shin contact — the leg acts as a heavy bat with the hip as the pivot
Позиция и вход
From fighting stance — Raise the leg high (straight or crescent), drive the heel down onto the target (collarbone, shoulder, or head)
From close range — Short-arc axe kick brought down quickly when the opponent's hands are low
As counter (after opponent's kick) — Raise the leg as the opponent recovers from their kick, bring the heel down
Варианты
Outside axe kick — raising the leg outside and bringing the heel straight down
Inside axe kick — raising the leg inside in a crescent arc before chopping down
Spinning axe kick — adding a spin before the downward chop

The standard inside axe kick does not receive direct instruction in the provided transcripts. Ramsey Dewey discusses crescent kicks as close-range head strikes executed from inside clinch distance, emphasizing their application in combinations and their use as fakes to set up secondary attacks like liver kicks. Simon Scher provides extensive technical instruction on the hook kick, covering chamber mechanics, hip and glute engagement, hand positioning, pivot footwork, target accuracy, striking surface variation (heel versus toe), and re-chambering for combination execution. While Scher's hook kick methodology—particularly chamber-extend-retract sequencing, hip drive engagement, and re-chambering discipline—shares biomechanical principles common to axe-kick variants, none of the instructors directly address the inside axe kick specifically. PJSPORTS TV VLOGS transcript contains only boxing fundamentals and is not applicable to kicking technique instruction.

✓From fighting stance, swing the rear or lead leg inward and upward across the body in an arcing path
✓At the peak of the arc, the leg should be at or above the opponent's head height
✓Chop the heel straight down onto the target — collarbone, shoulder, or top of the guard
✓The standing leg must be slightly bent and firmly planted, with weight centred for balance
✓The arms stay in guard position — resist the urge to swing them for counterbalance
✓The downward force combines gravity, hip flexor contraction, and hamstring pull — all accelerating the heel downward
✓Practise by lifting the leg slowly over a chair-height object, then gradually increasing the speed and height of the target
Типичные ошибки
!Not completing the full arc — the leg must go up and over, not just swing across at one height
!Landing with the ankle or instep instead of the heel — the heel is the hardest surface and the correct impact point
!Falling toward the opponent after the chop because of poor balance on the support leg
!Not chopping aggressively enough — the downward motion must be forceful, not a gentle lowering
!Keeping the kicking leg too bent during the chop, reducing reach and impact
!Swinging the arms wildly, which disrupts balance and opens the guard
!Attempting the kick on a moving opponent who is circling away — the axe kick works best against stationary or forward-moving targets

Часто задаваемые вопросы
What's the difference between using my toes versus my heel when throwing a hook kick?
According to Simon Scher, when sparring you point your foot and strike with your toes to be courteous and avoid excessive power, but when breaking boards or hitting pads to demonstrate real power, you use the back of the heel with a flexed foot.
Why should I re-chamber my leg after a hook kick instead of just dropping it?
Simon Scher emphasizes that re-chambering is essential because it keeps you from rotating fully and presenting your center to your opponent, and it's necessary for chaining multiple kicks together.
How should my hands move when I'm throwing a hook kick?
Simon Scher advises that your hands should remain separate from the kick and should not move or serve as a counterbalance when you're executing the technique.
What makes the hook kick effective even if my opponent tries to block it?
Simon Scher notes that the hook kick is a sneaky kick because if you throw it in close range, your knee can make contact with your opponent's block and the foot will still curve around and strike the target.
