Default Ignorance of TKD

Ah, I see. I've never trained in TKD, so I can't voice an educated opinion about it or how it has changed over the years. While I train in live partner, realistic fighting, I try to use maximum power and make each strike count( obviously hitting focus mitts and kicking shields as opposed to the other person) as that is my general advantage, while being cautious not to overextend or take myself off balance. I always like the combo of faking the roundhouse and delivering the low front kick with the toe or ball of the foot to SP 6 on the opposite leg, especially if the groin is not an option.
