    Neither, which is another technique I have heard of. The power is generated from the lats and hips.

    If you notice, watch his head, never moves when throwing. Which means He is of the floor with his heel, plus in control of his knee, good posture for using the floor which generates the power.

    Wouldn't lifting the lead heel move the head?

    Best way is to get an 18" band, and move with that around both feet, tells you by feel where the feet should be, plus lots of other things.

    Charley burley lined he's heels up this allowed him to pull the left shoulder backwards easily. Fran sands feet appear to wide.
