Ya, ur right. I've never been hit hard by a truly hard muay thai kick before, just high-quality taekwondo kicks. I guess wut I was wondering was whether I should still throw muay thai kicks that strike with my shin if I get in a fight where I have my shoes on as I'm concerned the shoe will slow my kick down or weigh my leg down so the force transfer isn't clean. Or maybe I should just convince my instructor to let me practice kicking the heavy bags with clean shoes on (he doesn't like getting the mats dirty) Also, I guess I wanted to know if I should throw roundhouse kicks with the muay thai-body rotation but striking with the shoe and not the shin as that would make use of the shoe on my foot and increase the range I can strike from
