lol every counter seems so easy when demonstrated, but in a real fight reactions are different.

The point is to practice until your reflexes naturally adopt the movement/counter as the default counter-action.

very true but i hope your not saying that tkd sucks, the thing is that many people focus on one speceific part of the body or where they think the technique will come from, if you dont focus one the whole body and look at it as a whole for ANY movement at that point move back they are still throwing the kcik you can counter easily after that its jut about who moves first

unless u wanna kick yourself on the arms, its wise not to have your arms up while doing an axe kick
