What is Teep in Muay Thai?

The push kick — a straight thrusting kick with the ball of the foot to the midsection, thigh or face, used like a jab to measure distance, halt advances and shove opponents off balance. A teep that visibly disrupts the opponent scores.

Example: Every time he marched forward, the teep stamped him back to range.
