Dude, there are correct mechanics for certain kicks, because the human body only move so many ways. A bad pivot will blow out your knees maybe an ankle.

what you think you are doing, may be incorrect, (from a mechanics standpoint) this can cause you to lose power, and make you more prone to injury.

You need to get some proper instruction before you hurt yourself.

The pivot for a side kick is 180 degrees. It's a linear kick, if your base leg heal is not point at the target when the kick makes contact you are at serious risk of injury. Even if it hasn't happened yet, the effects can add up over time as you get older. Hell I could throw one without pivoting at all, it doesn't mean there isn't a better way.
