@MacacoBranco Yes, if you see the move coming, you can turn/squeeze your thighs. For most situations where a groin kick is just a flick of the leg or in the case of close range cannot be seen in the first place, though, reaction time is too short. It can and should be covered by a distracting upper body move in any case though, very true.

I typically wear boxer brief underwear with a pouch and a 3” athletic supporter with knit pouch (traditional jockstrap) and shorts on top.
Bring your right leg as close to your chest without bending over or lifting your left foot off the ground. Rotate your right leg to the right, while bringing your foot up to make your lower leg as vertical as possible. At the max of your rotation, lower your foot and bring your leg back to the ground.
Lack of fatal damage: A factor that is not to be underestimated in self-defence is that unlike for kicks/punches to the head, the opponent can easily recover from a kick to the groin on the long term. This is important since in unclear legal situations (i.e. it is not obvious that you were the defender), you would not be sued for having used ...
If you are doing the horse stance, doesn't it just expose you to groin kicks? Yes. So why do people use the horse stance if it is just going to leave them exposed for groin shots? The purpose of the horse stance is not for fighting, but for training. You use the horse stance during training to develop leg strength, hip flexibility, and body ...
What we use for a front kick is to point the ball of the foot, curling back the toes, and using the ball of the foot to impact the target (e.g., knee or groin). The other day another student and I were discussing: How does this change when using a boot, particularly one with a plate or a steel toe, since this would both limit the range of ...
Keep kicks low so you can recover your balance and react more quickly. 2) Don't ever stay still, especially if he manages to get in close to you. Move your head up and down, left and right. Dip your body down and then up again. Step diagonally. Don't give him a target he can lock onto. You need to keep him thinking.
When it comes to Taekwondo, as a female, wearing a groin protector is more annoying than being kicked in the private parts. The groin protector scrapes the sides of your legs and more often than not causes more damage from the impact than the kick itself would. Kicks hurt, that's normal. But being kicked in the privates as a female does not ...
The groin adductor muscles which are the main muscles involved in getting the height (angle) on this kick are not very large, especially when compared to the total size of your thigh, you can work those muscles at the gym* but strengthening them is only going to get you part way there; what is more important is the speed and technique used.
Then insert banana style hard cup between jock and base layer. Make sure the cup is in place with the jock pouch completely covering the cup. Press cup to your groin making sure scrotum is inside cup. Stay away from flex cups, soft cups and old fashioned triangle flat cups, they are not designed for upward kicks to the groin.
