    S**** admit it that what you've been teaching us all these years about how to get power or as you say " the body is all or nothing" is ****e. For years you've scribbled about being a balance coach. Wrong!
    Then power your famous power principle about making the bag move. Well your punches have no power either so just give it up.

    Where's the balance standing on the ***** of your feet, besides your telling us to elevate the lead heel now that should put the head off centre and over the right knee with the right heel elevated too. Talk about the leaning tower of Pisa. From now I'll listen to dealt-with and not the leaning tower of Pisa. There's a video a George foreman putting a dent inside the bag, but according to you the technique was bad since big George didn't have his rear heel elevated.:rasta

    If you elevate your left foot while throwing a left hook it helps the lower part of the body pivot towards the direction of the target. Thus, causing all the extra 'whip' you get into your left hook to go 'thru' your target and cause a much more powerful punch.
    Most of y'all clearly don't know boxing, or haven't trained in years

    Yes it's called pushing off which is what we've been saying. However the right heel is flat.

    No its not both heels and knees, are working together. Depending on the knees causing the transfer, to any direction you want to be in. Everything is transferred to the thing that moves you, you drop into the floor, not of it.

    That sounds about right. You will be able to travel further in the rotation. But wether this makes for more power or not when working from the centre line i dont know.
    What we need is some studies and statistics backing up either claims. Weve been directed to videos and had it technicaly broken down but no one had supplied any studies to back things up.

    With variables like body weight size speed etc., its literally impossible.

    Fact is if your lead foot is elevated through delivery of the left hook it will help transfer the power to your right side aka through the bag.

    Once it goes, the hook that is past the right shoulder you are of balance without power. Its the influence of the back foot, that actually stabilizes everything through distance and power.

    Imagine your standing in a boxing stance and the back is straight and vertical to the back of the rear knee. Now bend the back forwards 24 degrees past the rear knee. The lead knee is over the toe, that's what my trainer is working on with me. Of course the measurements might be off. What's your opinion?

    My view is about 24 degrees different.

    Well im thinking something like a competant boxer hitting a target set up in a similar position to an opponent. The target is then hooked up to read the newton force delivered through each ways of hitting the target.

    For anybody who still thinks you should have the lead heel off the ground.... Go watch Gonzalez, Golovkin, Lomachenko, Rigondeaux. Those guys have the best footwork in the game, but according to S**** they're all doing it wrong. Don't listen to that guy about anything.
