spinning back kick finally clicked after 11 months — and everything changed

I've been training Kickboxing for 11 months and the moment spinning back kick finally clicked was a turning point. Before that I was going through the motions. After, the whole game opened up.

My coach breaks things down well and has a good understanding of punching range vs. kicking range, which made the difference. The community at the gym is genuine — no ego, everyone remembers being a beginner. the cardio from three-minute rounds was something I never expected to get from a sport like this. One honest note: shin conditioning. Factor that in from day one.
