Groin strike, is it overrated ?
The groin kick might be Krav Maga's most famous signature. But as we can see in the martial art world, there's a big controversy about its efficiency.
When you start practicing Krav Maga for the first time, you start by learning the roots of Krav Maga techniques. You basically follow your instructor teachings. Thus, you are usually greatly influenced by your master experience. Once you've learn to master them, these basics are developped in more difficult techniques. To reach this point, you must practice a few years. And when you approach the black belt, practitioners starts questionning themselves. They acquired sufficient experience and knowledge to judge what they know and what they can do. This is a tipping point where your Krav Maga style begins to express itself.
You'll feel the need to expand your knowledge about Krav Maga techniques. Watch Krav Maga videos, compare your techniques with the other federations. If you can, try other martial arts. You have to stay open minded to improve your technique.
