Start to extend/straighten the leg, as you swing the shin/foot through towards the groin.

As you extend and straighten the leg you should push the hip forward into the strike—this will involve you leaning backwards somewhat. This added hip movement will give power to the kick, and help knock the arms away if the person has brought them down to defend themselves.

Whenever you kick, your supporting leg (in this example, the left) should always have a bend at the knee. This will allow you to straighten up, adding more “lift” to the kick, as well as allowing you to move after making the kick, without having to readjust your weight. This is something that is difficult to do with a straight leg, i.e., it would have to be bent first before it could move.

With the right amount of force delivered with the leg and hips, you should be able to “lift” the person up. This puts them in an extremely weak defensive position to deal with any follow up attacks you make (you should never rely on one strike to finish the fight).
