Start slow. Take your time to feel the kick at every step; doing so will help to gradually increase your speed and power. Also, note that the center of gravity matters a lot. So, it is important to have good posture, flexibility, and balance.
“It is important to have flexibility to do air kicks. And if the practitioner is attempting to hit an object, that would require more power, speed, and regular practice,” Rakhi Chaudhary, a wrestler, CrossFit and gym trainer told indianexpress.com. Chaudhary added that the knee should be kept straight with a fine balance and the foot should land firmly, softly on the ground — something which requires regular practice to perfect.
And Nia, too, invested hours to prepare for the same before acing the workout.
